Chapter 41 Liu Shouyou's Choice
Liu Shouyou, the commander of the Jinyiwei, was a famous minister, and did not do anything out of line after he took up the commander of the Jinyiwei. Emperor Longqing did not value the factory guards, which was also one of the reasons for the decline of the factory guards.
However, Liu Shouyou himself is a famous minister and doesn't look down on the factory guard's trick.
Even if he doesn't like him, Liu Shouyou is unwilling to attack the eunuchs in the East Factory! As the eunuchs in the East Factory, Liu Shouyou's face is still worth it. When Lu Bing was the commander of the Jinyiwei, the Jinyiwei was extremely glorious.
During the Lu Bing era, Dongchang was the younger brother of the Jinyiwei, but now he has to turn around. If this is true, Liu Shouyou will definitely lose his reputation in the Jinyiwei.
In the North Fufu Department of Jinyiwei, Liu Shouyou was sitting on a chair and drinking tea. Although his expression was very calm on his face, he had already started to curse people in his heart. Standing opposite Liu Shouyou was Lu Zhengsheng, a Qianhu of Jinyiwei, who was responsible for guarding the access control of the palace.
To put it bluntly, Lu Zhengsheng has a lot to do with the time of assassination this time.
Lu Zhengsheng was also frustrated, he had no idea what had happened.
Minister Wang wore the eunuch's clothes and sneaked into the palace. If you want to say that this matter has nothing to do with the eunuch, you won't believe it if you beat Lu Zhengsheng to death. Or just say it bluntly that this matter was done by Feng Bao, and others will definitely not have the ability.
Feng Bao was in charge of the East Factory, and the palace was full of his spies, so it was impossible to do such a thing.
None of the other eunuchs, whether Zhang Jing or Zhang Cheng, have the ability to do this. If they really did it, this thing would be of no benefit to them. Now that the matter has fallen into Feng Bao's hands, they really did it, then wait for Feng Bao to kill him!
Obviously they wouldn't be that stupid, so the only suspect was Feng Bao.
Feng Bao was at the scene when the emperor was assassinated. How could it be so coincidental? Now the case has fallen into Feng Bao's hands again, which has become a weapon of killing. However, no one expected that Feng Bao was so bold, or so crazy, would actually fabricate such a case.
"Sir, should you enter the palace?" Lu Zhengsheng looked at Liu Shouyou carefully and said with a embarrassed look on his face.
Although Lu Zhengsheng felt wronged in his heart this time, Liu Shouyou felt even more wronged in his heart. He did nothing, but he had to take the blame himself. It seemed that Lu Zhengsheng had dereliction of duty, which led to Liu Shouyou taking the blame.
If Lu Zhengsheng was not Liu Shouyou's confidant, he would have been thrown out long ago.
Now Liu Shouyou doesn’t let Lu Zhengsheng go out in order to prevent his subordinates from being upset. Once his subordinates are upset, the people’s hearts will be dispersed and the team will be difficult to lead.
Putting down the teacup in his hand, looking up at Lu Zhengsheng, Liu Shouyou said expressionlessly: "Now you know you're scared?"
Lu Zhengsheng was crying, how could he not be afraid at this time?
After the incident happened, Liu Shouyou immediately sought help from Zhang Juzheng. Now all Liu Shouyou had to do was wait. He already knew that Zhang Juzheng had entered the palace. Before the result came out, it was better to be quiet than to move.
But Liu Shouyou felt it was better to scare Lu Zhengsheng, otherwise he would not know how to fear him.
"Sir, the butler of the Chief Secretary Zhang, You Qi, is asking for a meeting outside!" A Jinyiwei School Captain walked in from outside and said with a bow.
Here comes!
A hint of uneasiness flashed across Liu Shouyou's face, but it flashed away. Looking at Lu Zhengsheng, Liu Shouyou ordered: "Go, go and pick up Butler You in, please come to my official, be polite."
"Yes, Bei Zhi understands!" Lu Zhengsheng nodded, turned around and walked out.
Lu Zhengsheng naturally knew about You Qi's status. Since ancient times, he has been a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, let alone You Qi, Zhang Juzheng's confidant, so his status would be even better. Thinking of his own adults looking for Zhang Juzheng, Lu Zhengsheng didn't know what it felt.
This time, Feng Bao will definitely put pressure on the Jinyiwei. If he relies on the Jinyiwei, things will be difficult to deal with.
Obviously, my family’s adults have found an allies, and this person is Zhang Juzheng, the chief minister of the cabinet.
In comparison, the influence of the Chief Secretary of the Cabinet on the Jinyiwei is relatively weak, and it is definitely much better to find Zhang Juzheng than to find Feng Bao. Zhang Juzheng also needs the Jinyiwei as a foreign aid at this time, and the two sides hit it off.
Not long after, You Qi walked in under the leadership of Lu Zhengsheng.
"The little You Qi has met Lord Liu!" Seeing Liu Shouyou, You Qi bowed to salute with a smile, but as soon as he bent down, he raised it again, and his hands were just arched, not formal at all, and he looked a little arrogant.
However, Liu Shouyou was not angry, but instead breathed a sigh of relief.
With You Qi's attitude, Liu Shouyou understood that Zhang Juzheng accepted him.
"You don't have to be polite, sit down!" Liu Shouyou smiled and made a gesture to ask for a seat, and then ordered the captain on the side: "Give tea, I have some good tea here, butler You can taste it."
"Then You Qi thanked Lord Liu!" You Qi bowed with a smile.
After drinking tea and being polite, You Qi turned the topic to the main business: "Mr. Liu, this time the Jinyiwei had such a big thing, the Empress Dowager was very angry. The Empress Dowager attaches great importance to the Emperor's affairs, let alone such a thing."
"In addition, there are small life events in the palace, so I'm afraid it's a bit troublesome!"
Listening to the string songs, you will know the meaning of elegant meaning. Liu Shouyou naturally knows what You Qi means. Some words are inconvenient to Zhang Juzheng, but You Qi does not have such a guess. Some things are inconvenient to Zhang Juzheng, but You Qi is convenient to you.
For example, when you take the favor of the Jinyiwei, You Qi is waiting for Liu Shouyou to express his opinion.
"It's all up to the Prime Minister to mediate. I am very grateful. I will definitely report it later in the future." Liu Shouyou had already made preparations in his heart, and the smile on his face did not change. He spoke directly, his attitude was very obvious.
You Qi nodded with satisfaction, and without saying anything, both sides understood.
Feng Bao's eye drops have also come to his feet, so You Qi is no longer keeping it in custody: "The master entered the palace today and told the Empress Dowager that the Jinyiwei did make mistakes this time, but the assassination case is a major case. The key is to find out the mastermind behind the scenes as soon as possible."
"My master is like the Empress Dowager who recommends that the Lord make meritorious service, and the Empress Dowager also agrees."
"This case of assassination is investigated by the Dongchang and Jinyiwei together. Lord Liu, don't let my master down!"
Liu Shouyou was sure of it, and his heart was completely relieved when he was in his throat. With the saying of making meritorious service, it was easier to do it, and there was more room for things to do. After thinking about it, Liu Shouyou said seriously: "Please ask the butler You to go to the prime minister, and the Jinyiwei will do his best to live up to the prime minister's trust."
