Chapter 576: Sitting and watching the chaos
"The villain originally lived on the beach of Monkeys outside the city. It was at that time that he believed in the Sanyang Sect. At that time, he chose those who were strong and strong. Because of his eloquence and good at flattery, he was also selected by the incense master above... He was not a incense master, but a thief leader..."
This eunuch, who was called "Six Lady" by women, immediately told everyone that he was found out. The women who were originally frightened and uneasy heard that they were actually a husband with no eggs on weekdays. They were really ashamed and angry, and they started to cry out there. At this point, they were completely shameless and had no idea of seeing people. They went back to hang themselves, but this was also a self-inflicted person and no one would pay attention to it.
All the women who worshiped this "Maitreya" were detained, and a house was requisitioned on the spot to interrogate the "Six Lady".
Eunuchs are sarcastic and their masculine characteristics continue to fade away. It is really hard to show off when wearing women's clothes.
"....... I originally joined the Three Yang Sect, in addition to being able to eat and wear well, whenever I chose people in the palace, I could also enter the palace in turn one after another. However, some time ago, there was a case in the Jiuxuan Niangniang Temple in the capital. The government investigated several times, and there was no help from the top and everyone had no way to survive. Later, the officials retreated, but the leaders of the thieves didn't provide any assistance... After a while, I could not bear it anymore. Someone above said that if the Three Yang Buddha wanted to achieve a golden body, everyone needed to worship. Whoever offered more worship, could join the palace as soon as possible..."
No wonder this "Sixth Lady" was able to bewitch believers. She was really clever and could not hear what he said. Wang Tong did it himself, and there was much involvement, so he naturally knew the truth or falsehood of this statement.
"...When the case of the Jiuxuan Niangniang Temple was in trouble, there were several people doing it in Monkey Sea several times, and they saved up some money. This time, as mentioned above, everyone handed over the money in total. Within three days, they were indeed arranged to join the military bureau to serve in the military bureau and walked around here wearing clothes from the palace. As a result, everyone's minds moved, and they watched it tightly outside the capital, and everyone ran to the distance to do it... The young man used to be from Jinghai County, and he also came to Tianjin Wei..."
Wang Tong nodded, waved his hand and arranged to take the person down, and said:
"Appoint Zhang Shiqiang to examine the people again, and after recording the confession, he will be locked into the dungeon in the city, so that he can live well."
The personal soldiers from behind agreed, Wang Tong signaled them to retreat, pondered alone in the house for a while, and then led the troops back to the city after going out.
Almost half of the officers of the Jinyiwei stayed here, asking and admonishing each other from house to house, saying that when you come to Tianjin, you should abide by the law and not break the rules. If someone believes in Maitreya, Bailian, etc., you should go to the government to report something wrong immediately. The government will definitely have a reward. If you don’t report it, it would be a sin.
On weekdays, everyone has an idea, that is, officials will not catch thieves during the New Year. This time, Wang Tong personally led his troops to mobilize a large number of troops to capture them. It really reminds everyone that this matter is extraordinary.
Being vigilant is one thing, but I didn’t expect that from the end of the twelfth lunar month to the beginning of the tenth year of Wanli, in a month, Buddhist temples, Taoist temples and nunners outside the inner and outer city of Tianjin Acropolis were reported several times. Ordinary people, please tell them what religions are and what cults are. This is not easy.
"At the beginning of this case of the Lao Shizi Sanyang Sect and He Jinyin, he was very good at it and had a close organization. Later, they were shadowed after one thing, and we were defeated one thing. Now, I feel that there is embarrassment and a mess."
Wang Tong paced back and forth in his study, saying slowly as he walked, that all the confidants who could participate in this matter were summoned here.
"There is no need to go to the outer world to practice this year, but you don't want to be idle. Send out all the people you can send out. You can't take care of anything else. Tianjin Wei must carefully sift through it. Don't let people take advantage of the loopholes here. Don't delay, just make arrangements now!"
Everyone stood up and followed the orders, turned around and walked out. When Li Hutou was about to go out, he was stopped by Wang Tong and said:
"Don't leave Hutou first. I'll listen to me here. I'll let you run away once when I go to the capital this time!"
Li Hutou was stunned at first, then agreed, and Wang Tong said with a serious expression:
"Don't transfer the news of the sending to the capital this time through others. If you can't see Zhang Cheng and Eunuch Zhang, you should also give it to Zou Yi or Zhao Jinliang. Except for these three people, everyone else can't handle it. Do you understand?"
Li Hu looked at Wang Tong's solemn statement and subconsciously saluted and accepted the order.
Wang Tong nodded and turned around and said to Yang Sichen who was waiting aside:
"Mr. Yang, I said, come and remember, there is a memorial..."
"...Your Majesty, I am not bad about what I said before. As long as your Majesty does not move, acts rigorously, and I am cautious and do not make mistakes. Be careful and guard against the top and bottom and do not give the thieves the opportunity to take advantage of loopholes, then they will have no choice... Insidious methods are not a long-term solution. As long as you can be stable here, the thieves will be distracted... It turns out that the gambling house in the capital has issued loans and collected accounts, and the brothels sell people and sell dividends, and there are also Datong Shanxi.
On the grassland, the trade profits of Tianjin Weihai and the seaside are huge. Now both of them are controlled by the ministers, and the thief's wealth is cut off. The thief has no money and naturally cannot do it. The difficulty is getting more and more embarrassing. He actually wants the people below to go to cheat everywhere to save money... Although the situation is very good, he gradually finds the traces of the thief, but after all, the real murderer has never shown up. Your Majesty should be careful and not be careless..."
Emperor Wanli sat in the imperial study room, listening carefully to Zhang Cheng reciting Wang Tong's memorials. A crack was opened in the study room, and on one side was breathable, while Zhao Jinliang in the door was convenient to stare at the movement outside the door.
Zhao Jinliang stared outside, but his mind was not there. Zhang Cheng's recitation was the news he paid the most attention to. His parents committed suicide overnight and entered the palace by themselves. This was a deep hatred. Year by year, under the promotion of Wang Tong, clues gradually emerged.
He was young when he was young, because the eunuchs suppressed Shuntian Mansion and released his father-killing enemy. He thought that if he wanted to take revenge, he would become a powerful eunuch. After entering the palace for many years, he was by the emperor's side. His position was important. Everyone flattered him, but they also knew many secret matters.
The more I know, the more I understand that the mastermind behind all kinds of things is in the palace, and I have a close relationship with King Lu. Now, Zhao Jinliang knows that he is extremely anxious.
Zhao Jinliang understood the situation in the palace and knew that the Queen Mother loved Lu Wang. If something really happened, the culprit might be punished, but those involved would probably be considered as traitors who provoked the Tian family's mother and son and brotherhood, and would be dealt with before the culprit was punished.
Who would it be, His Highness Lu, who would be extremely polite to everyone in the palace, or the authoritative eunuchs in the palace, Zhao Jinliang thought hard but couldn't think of anything.
"Yangsui, I feel that although the guards in the palace are children of nobles in the capital and have been serving as innocent military households for generations, the family background is always difficult for those who need to be a servant, which gives outsiders an opportunity to take advantage of it. Since Wang Tong said that Yangsui should be cautious and have available trustees around him, I thought about it. If the capital is completely confident, Chen Sibao, Chen Jinsheng's family in Xiangcheng, and Tang Sihai, the imperial merchant's Tang family, there are twelve military officers in the capital camp who have studied in the Huwei Martial Arts Hall. These people have lived with Yangsui day and night and were promoted by Yangsui's kindness. They must be loyal... Li Hutou is also in the capital and is preparing to return to Tianjin Wei after the New Year. Of course, his loyalty is not to be said. He is very skilled in martial arts, and he can also..."
"No need, Hutou will go back to Tianjin Guard. He can't live without the troops in his hands. Just arrange for Chen Sibao and the others to enter the palace to serve on duty."
Emperor Wanli interrupted Zhang Cheng's suggestion. Zhang Cheng was stunned and quickly bowed to agree. Zhao Jinliang opened the door a little wider, stretched out his head to look at the sundial, and turned around and said:
"Long live, today I will give you a banquet for Ma Dong of Datong. I still have a moment to do so. Are you ready to change your clothes?"
Emperor Wanli nodded and spoke to Zhang Cheng:
"Arranging it in the warm room, you can arrange a few credit people to watch it everywhere, so as not to let me say anything in the morning, and even the vendors selling vegetables in Tongzhou know about it in the afternoon."
The two below quickly bowed and agreed.
"During the Zhengtong period, Emperor Rui personally conquered the Oirat, and there is no need to mention the incident of Tumu Fort, it was a great humiliation of the Ming Dynasty."
The western warm-up pavilion of the imperial palace was where the emperor met his ministers in winter. Now a banquet was set up here, and the king and his ministers sat opposite each other, and only Zhang Cheng was serving him.
The dishes on the table are quite simple. This is a common thing. No one in this position lacks this little wine and meat. It is just a ceremony. However, Ma Dong, who sat sideways, was a little puzzled at the beginning, what status and status of Zhang Cheng, the eunuch who was the eunuch in the Silis and Pen, was so good that he could serve him in such an occasion.
When he heard Emperor Wanli talk about the old things, he even wondered that Emperor Rui was Yingzong, who was captured in the Tumu Fort personally. This was known to everyone, and it was also a so-called great humiliation. No one didn't know about it, but it was a bit strange to say at the promotion banquet.
"In the battle of Tumu Fort, Datong Border Town remained unmoved from beginning to end, and even the news was not conveyed. I sat on the verge of the emperor, not to mention when Emperor Zusu, Altan invaded. Datong Border Town actually made a private agreement with Altan to give way and let go, just to not touch Datong. For example, I am really worried about Datong!!"
