Chapter five hundred and sixty-six words are vague and shock the emperor

The man behind Li Wenyuan knelt down to greet him. When he raised his head, Emperor Wanli was stunned. He turned to look at Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng lowered his head and looked at Li Wenyuan standing there. Li Wenyuan lowered his hand and said:

"Your Majesty, I am patrolling and guarding outside the store."

After saying that, he also respectfully quit the store. Emperor Wanli was stunned for a while before speaking:

"Get up!"

Wang Tong stood up, Emperor Wanli patted his legs with his hand, and sighed and said in a low voice:

"Panpa Zhang, Wang Tong, why don't I know that the situation has reached such a dangerous place now. I have to pretend to be an eunuch after leaving the palace. You have to spend so much time to see Zhou Zhang."

"Your Majesty, Lu Wancai and Li Wenyuan were stabbed and Zou Yi was poisoned. Your Majesty knows it!"

Wang Tong was wearing the uniform of the Jinyiwei Guard. He hadn't seen this outfit for a long time. He said straight to the point, and Emperor Wanli nodded.

"Since I left the capital, Your Majesty has also known that someone has always targeted me, and I am just a thousand households in the Jinyiwei. I don't know how many people are in the world like me. I am targeting me in this way, but not targeting me, but Your Majesty!"

Wang Tong then said, Emperor Wanli's face changed from irritability just now to heavy. After thinking for a while, he spoke again:

"Who is so brave in the world of Lutu, isn't you afraid of being killed by the nine clans and being cut into pieces?"

When he said this, there was anger in his tone, but more helplessness and confusion. From beginning to end, one by one, an individual was criticized and punished. Wang Tong's memorials and letters, what Emperor Wanli saw and heard in the capital all show that someone had some intentions behind his back, but there was no clue to who it was.

Speaking of this, Wang Tong knelt down again and said in a solemn voice:

"Your Majesty, I apologize for what I want to say next. If you make Your Majesty angry, please forgive me. I am just a guess and cannot be said to be a conclusion!!"

After hearing what Wang Tong said so cautiously, Emperor Wanli felt annoyed in his heart, and he stretched his hand upwards and said with gritted teeth:

"As soon as I get up, I'm talking about this. Can I do anything else to you?"

Wang Tongxiang took two steps forward and almost walked to Emperor Wanli. Although there were only three of them in the store, he still lowered his voice and whispered:

"Your Majesty, Zou Yi and the other two were assassinated in the capital, and now the Chaozhou Bureau cannot open a clue. The officers of Shuntian Prefecture found clues from the assassin's body, saying that they might be from Shanxi. With this trace, the minister and the Public Security Department arranged for trustworthy people to visit the inner city of the capital. A house outside the west city appeared. In the past few days, people were sent to follow the secret, which proved that they were indeed the assassination person, and they also came from Shanxi."

"Don't say whether these are all or not, who instructs them, and who is the one who is trying to make Zhang and you so cautious."

"Not to mention the encounters of Zou Yi, Li Wenyuan and Lu Wancai in the palace a few days ago, it was not just such a fierce elite in the army that could not come out. The only thing that could come out of such a person in Shanxi was the Datong border town."

Emperor Wanli's eyes gradually widened, and Wang Tong said in detail:

"I have no grudges with Datong border towns. However, I have established business and commerce in Tianjin. Jinhe and Yongsheng's two warehouses have many hindering. Behind these two businesses is Yongsheng Boyu Mansion in Shanxi."

By this point, there was no need to continue talking. The expression on Emperor Wanli's face was not as shocked or angry as Wang Tong expected. Instead, he was silent for a while and said slowly:

"Is King Lu? Wang Tong, don't rely on my favor, just say such bold and reckless words. What can he do as a child who reads every day?"

It seemed to be a scolding, but it was more like a question. Wang Tong took a deep breath and said:

"I opened an alkaline business in Tianjin Wei, and the business was booming. But before me, the alkaline business was run by Yongsheng Bo's family..."

Speaking of this, Emperor Wanli frowned again, and this time he had some unconcealable anger in his voice, and he said coldly:

"Why do you have to involve some small matters in the money business?..."

"Your Majesty, my alkali is imported from the grassland outside Xuanfu, and my alkali is imported from the grassland outside Datong. I led the Huwei army to the grassland to perform martial arts training, and encountered a large number of Tartar cavalry siege."

This statement didn't seem to be an explanation at all, and it had nothing to do with the previous question. Emperor Wanli, who was sitting there, was shocked and stared at Wang Tong after a while.

Wang Tong did not mention the matter of killing the second son of the Yongsheng Bo family halfway, but what he said just now enclosed a contour. Although there were still many missing parts of this contour and not complete, it had already drawn a general description. The more Emperor Wanli thought about it, the more he felt it made sense and the more creepy he felt.

Seeing the expression of Emperor Wanli, Wang Tong knew that Emperor Wanli had already believed it a little, at least he would not feel that he was making trouble with false words, and he said again now:

"If it is really a matter of money, if the Yongsheng Bo goes to His Majesty or the Empress Dowager asks, will the Empress Dowager not take care of him? Thousands of Tartar cavalry outside the border attack, why do you have such a big battle? No one pays attention to the previous imperial guards, why are my soldiers and horses going out of the border and are targeted? If the Tartars really want to fight, wouldn't they be majestic when they fight, and why should they stare at the new army?"

Emperor Wanli's face turned completely gloomy. He put his legs on his legs and spread his hands flat and clenched them tightly. He repeated several times. Anyone who knew him knew that he was anxious. After a while, Emperor Wanli asked in a low voice:

"The Imperial Horse Supervisor can be transferred to the imperial guards to perform martial arts. Could it be that Chu Zhaoren is also involved?"

"Your Majesty, it may not be Chu Zhaoren, but someone in the palace must participate in this matter. Since the case of the Three Yang Sect, there have always been people in the palace who cannot escape from this matter, but some things in the forbidden area of ​​the Great Inner are beyond their reach.

Wang Tong said again, Emperor Wanli stood up from the chair with a fierce movement, and his movements were too fierce, and he was lame, and he staggered forward and almost fell down. Wang Tong hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

Emperor Wanli's body trembled slightly, looked around the delicacies and said in a hoarse voice:

"Who is it, who is going to be unfavorable to me? Isn't this the palace? Isn't this the palace? Isn't I the crown prince of the late emperor? Is there anything you don't agree with in this position!!"

At the end, he roared out in a low voice. Wang Tong looked at Zhang Cheng standing there. Although Emperor Wanli was excited now, he did not lose his composure. At least he did not sing to alarm the outside. Zhang Cheng saw Wang Tong's eyes signaling, hesitated for a while, and lowered his voice and said:

"Long live, I say that if I die, Your Highness Lu has reached the age of being a vassal, but living in the palace is not a big deal. Although the Empress Dowager is kind, it is inevitable that someone will think too much outside, and it is inevitable that someone will have some bold and arbitrary thoughts. Your Highness Lu is studying with those purgatory scholars all day long, and he is well-behaved in front of the Empress Dowager. His good reputation is circulated in and out of the palace, and I dare not speculate on this..."

"Let him go to Weihui and stay in the palace. How long does he want to stay? I will report to Ming’s mother today..."

"Long live the Lord (Your Majesty) can't!!"

Wang Tong and Zhang Cheng shouted this sentence in unison. Zhang Cheng immediately knelt in front of Emperor Wanli and said anxiously:

"Long Sui, the words of Lu Wang are just vassals are a taboo for the Empress Dowager. This statement of Long Sui, there will be a right and wrong again!"

"Your Majesty, if Your Majesty goes and says, the Empress Dowager will definitely ask the reason. If Your Majesty doesn't say it, the Empress Dowager will be furious. If Your Majesty gives the reason, the Empress Dowager will definitely kill Eunuch Zhang and Chen first, and then deal with it. I am Your Majesty's winged and minions. After Ruochen waits, he will be exploited by the thieves inside and outside the palace. Maybe it will really lead to a disaster!!"

Wang Tong's voice was also a little hoarse. He just came to this world and wanted to ask for glory and prosperity and a brilliant life, but when he started to manage it step by step, why was he so frightened?

Emperor Wanli stared at Wang Tong and Zhang Cheng, gasped heavily, and finally sat down on the stool in dejection, pointed at Wang Tong with his finger, and asked in a low voice:

"What should I do? I'm just waiting for chaos in the palace? Is there nothing to do with this?"

Since Emperor Wanli ascended the throne, there are Empress Dowager Cisheng Li and Feng Bao in the palace, and outside the palace is Zhang Juzheng in the cabinet. He has never experienced any major events. He is old and has mature behavior, but after encountering such incidents, he is still unstable and has some stuttering behavior.

"Although there are thieves and conspiracies, as long as the situation is stable, they dare not act rashly. The thieves only have the ability to take advantage of the situation. I will ask Your Majesty to strengthen the protection in the palace and beware of the guards at all times. Please arrange for people who are caring and trusted to protect yourself. Eunuch Zhang will stare at the things in the palace, and me will investigate the things outside the palace."

Speaking of this, Wang Tong knelt down and said solemnly:

"The thief was attacked by me and others several times, and he no longer dared to act rashly. This time, he was able to find out the truth. He must be in a hurry and messed up. The truth must be not far away. But the more you are at this time, you must be more cautious. Your Majesty, I am taking risks in my face today. Before the truth is revealed, I only had to communicate with Your Majesty in secret. If such a secret meeting is revealed, it will definitely be a great disaster. I am here, please take care of Your Majesty!!"

Wang Tong kowtowed heavily, and Zhang Cheng also knelt down beside him and said:

"Long live the kingdom of our ancestors, the country and the thieves are just delusions. I will protect our servants and find out the truth with Wang Tong."

Emperor Wanli breathed a sigh of relief, was silent for a while, and spoke:

"I see your loyalty, and I will definitely not let you down!"

The two kowtowed again, Wang Tong got up and was about to retreat. The atmosphere was heavy. Emperor Wanli changed the subject and asked:

"Wang Tong, what are you going to do next!"
