In the seventh year of Tianqi in the Ming Dynasty, 1627 AD, August 22, Wei.

It was the time of lazy afternoon that most people in the capital were sleeping high at home, with few pedestrians on the streets, which were extremely quiet.

"其其其其其其其..." A dull bell rang suddenly, breaking the tranquility of the afternoon. After being awakened, most of the sleeping people cursed and greeted the maternal relatives of the bell ringer, and then continued their dreams of spring and autumn. However, some people seemed to have been waiting for the bell. After the bell rang, many places in the capital began to act.

............

In the Deshengmen West Clothes Washing Bureau, there were a group of eunuchs, about twenty or thirty people, standing quietly in the courtyard of the lobby. These eunuchs were different from those thin and weak in the palace. They were all muscular and tall and strong, and they were obviously military eunuchs who had received special training.

There was a big cart covering the tarp in front of them, and two middle-aged eunuchs in their forties stood in front of the cart.

Although one of them was pale and had no beard, he was majestic and had a great general. If someone familiar with him saw it, he would be shocked. This person was actually the proud student of Wang An, the eunuch in charge of the seal of the former Sili Supervisor, and the eunuch Cao Huachun! Hasn’t he already been framed by Wei Zhongxian and sent to Nanzhili to wait for punishment? How could he suddenly appear in the capital?

The other person is not simple either. He is Wang Yumin, the eunuch in charge of the washing clothes bureau, and he is also under Wang An. He seems to have foot disease and stands there with a slight slight difficulty.

As soon as the bell rang, Wang Yumin immediately knelt on the ground and murmured: "The emperor has passed away."

Cao Huachun did not kneel down after hearing this. He bowed to Wang Yumin and said, "Yumin, time is tight. You can send the emperor to me here. We are here."

After saying that, he lifted up the tarpaulin from the cart next to him, picked up a stack of white socks and walked straight out. The eunuchs in two rows also stepped forward one after another, one of them picked up a stack of white socks and followed him silently.

Wang Yumin rested on the ground and said sadly: "Brother, it's a pity that my leg was interrupted by the traitor. I can't go to the national crisis with you. If you encounter any accident this time, I will never live a life. I will commit suicide and commit suicide in front of my mentor's grave and accompany you to the Nine Springs."

Cao Huachun turned around and looked at him deeply, nodded slightly, and left resolutely.

............

There is a thousand-household office in Jinyiwei outside Guangqumen. A thousand-household high-ranking seat in a fifty-year-old house is on the main seat of the lobby. The ten hundred-household households below sit on the left and right, and the whole lobby is silent.

As soon as the bell rang, the thousand households began to count. Every time he rang, he counted: "One, two, three..."

When he counted to nineteen, he suddenly stood up from his seat and said wailingly: "The Emperor has passed away."

Then he turned around and knelt down in the direction of the palace. The ten hundred households on both sides stood up at the same time when they heard this, and knelt neatly in the direction of the palace.

The thousand households said sarcastically: "Give me a greeting to the emperor."

Then he started kowtowing first, and ten hundred households kowtowed nine times in an orderly manner.

After the ceremony, the thousand households stood up and said with a strict order: "Mr. Xiao Luo has an order. Half an hour later, gathered in West Chang'an Street outside Chengtianmen. You quickly summoned our troops to West Chang'an Street, but someone was late, and beheaded!"

Ten hundred households bowed their hands and replied in unison: "As for the order."

Then, they got up one after another and walked out quickly.

............

"其其其其其..." The low bell sounded endlessly, as if it was ringing in Zhu Cijiu's heart. He felt that his heart was almost jumping into his throat with the bell.

It's been a quarter of an hour, and Cao Huachun still has no news. He won't be able to get in!

At this moment, a notice came from outside: "Report, the washing machine sent the white sorrow."

When Sun Chengzong heard the news, he breathed a sigh of relief and shouted: "Let them come in."

Soon, a middle-aged eunuch with a majestic aura led two tall eunuchs in holding white so as to kneel in front of everyone.

When King Xin Zhu Youjian saw the middle-aged eunuch, he couldn't help but shouted in surprise: "Eunuch Cao!"

Cao Huachun did not reply to King Zhu Youjian's words, but knelt there and sang respectfully: "Slave Cao Huachun met His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness the King, Empress, Concubine, and Lord Sun."

After meeting, he said to King Xin Zhu Youjian: "His Highness King Xin, it's been a long time since I saw you, and I miss you very much."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Youjian stepped forward and helped Cao Huachun up, and said with tears in his eyes: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Cao Huachun was once a servant of King Xin Zhu Youjian. He has been with Zhu Youjian since he was four years old and took care of him. He can be said to be Zhu Youjian's closest person.

In history, Zhu Youjian believed no one and no one doubted it, but he always favored Cao Huachun, which shows that their relationship was extraordinary.

Cao Huachun had not had time to reminisce about the past with Zhu Youjian. He ordered the two eunuchs who accompanied him to send Luo Su down, and then began to serve Zhu Cijing.

When Zhu Cijiong saw Cao Huachun's appearance, he knew that he must be extraordinary. However, Wei Zhongxian had been in the government and the opposition for so many years. Could it be that such a person could fight?

Queen Zhang was also a little worried. After all, Wei Zhongxian's power was there, and Cao Huachun could pass it alone, that would be a joke. While sorting out the white sou, she asked, "Eunuch Cao, how many people did you bring from Nanzhili this time?"

Cao Huachun replied respectfully: "Qi Gui, the Empress, has brought twenty-four military officials. He is now distributing mourning in various places in the palace. After the distribution is completed, he will go to the outside of the Prince's Highness and the Empress's bedroom to serve."

Empress Zhang was startled when she heard this and asked anxiously: "I heard that Wei Zhongxian has eunuchs of all sizes and sizes under her command, and you are so few that you can beat him?"

Cao Huachun replied respectfully again: "Please rest assured to Empress. Most of the eunuchs under Wei Zhongxian are in the East Factory. It would be great if he could mobilize 5,000 people in this palace. There are almost tens of thousands of eunuchs left by the old men in the palace. They are all loyal to the emperor and the crown prince, so he cannot be transferred."

Five thousand to twenty-four, which is reassuring. Even King Xin Zhu Youjian was not calm. He asked in horror: "Five thousand! Can you resist with more than twenty people?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Huachun quickly comforted him: "Your Highness King Xin, don't worry. I have contacted the eunuchs in the seals of the various supervisors in the palace. If Wei Zhongxian dares to do anything randomly, they will not sit idly by."

When King Xin Zhu Youjian heard this, he felt relieved and nodded, "That's good, that's good."

Speaking of this, Cao Huachun said worriedly: "There is nothing in the palace, I'm afraid that he will start from outside the palace, and the Jinyiwei is also in his hands. That's fifty or sixty thousand elite soldiers!"

Zhu Cijiu had already put his heart back in his stomach. When he heard Cao Huachun's words, his little heart immediately jumped into his throat. Fifty or sixty thousand elite soldiers were fighting ten thousand eunuchs, which was not like cutting melons and vegetables!

Fortunately, Sun Chengzong immediately gave him a reassurance, and he said lightly: "The emperor has issued a secret order to activate Luo Yangxing and become the Tongzhi of the Jinyiwei and be responsible for the guard of the palace. I believe he has already met Wei Zhongxian at this time."

When Cao Huachun heard this, he let out a long sigh and said fortunately: "That's good. Once the two of them fight, Wei Zhongxian will have no time to take care of the affairs in the palace."

Zhu Cijiu was inexplicably fighting? What the hell is Luo Yangxing? Why did they fight? In addition to the Donglin Party, there are still people in the court and the country who dared to fight against Wei Zhongxian? How brave is Luo Yangxing!

He was in the stage of pretending to be stupid and cute, so it was difficult to ask. Fortunately, he believed in Wang Zhu Youjian and asked directly: "Why do they fight?"

Cao Huachun replied respectfully: "Reply to His Highness Wang's words, because the former commander of the Jinyiwei, Luo Sigong, who was the father of Luo Yangxing, was killed by Wei Zhongxian."

It turns out that it is a grudge to kill my father, so it would be strange if I don’t fight.
