- Volume 5: The height of the temple, the distance of the rivers and lakes Chapter 3: Implications
As the information on the relevant persons became complete and their behavioral trends over the past few days became clear, the matter finally came to light. ,
Wang Mo comes from a branch of the Wang family and belongs to the Jeju Wang family. Although he also has the surname Wang, his relationship with the Donglu Wang family to which Wang Yuan belongs is relatively distant. There is some blood connection in his ancestors, but in this generation, except for those that can be found in the family tree, Apart from a few contacts, the relationship between the two people has already gone beyond the fifth server and can no longer be regarded as true relatives. However, due to their ancestral connection and the fact that they were both members of the Wang family, Wang Mo, whose family was in decline, left his hometown and came to the capital, where he found a job with Wang Yuan and barely established himself. Later, the business gradually climbed up, and with a few brains, I was able to become the outer accounting office today.
Although the outer accounting clerk has a low status and does not belong to a prestigious position in the Shangshu Mansion, and may not be in the mansion a few times in the end, he still manages the accounts of the Shangshu Mansion after all. It is impossible for someone who is not trusted by the master to be Sent to do the accounting. Therefore, although Wang Mo works as an external accountant and is in charge of projects related to tenants, servants, etc. who belong to the Wang family, he still has a certain degree of trust in the circle outside the Wang family.
A middle-aged man named Kong came from the southeast of China. After many investigations by Feiling Guards, his identity was gradually determined. Kong Ming, also known as Duobao, passed the imperial examination at the age of thirteen in the eighth year of Qi Yuan. However, in the following years of scientific examinations, he was only famous but made no progress. From then on, his behavior became somewhat surly and flamboyant, and he often made shocking and cynical remarks. After middle age, I got acquainted with Jiang Bu, and for a while I thought it was irreversible. People around him who are familiar with him often omit his name and respectfully call him Zhuge Xian. He is also complacent and often compares himself to himself.
When King Wu Zhang Xiu conspired to rebel, Kong Ming and Jiang Bu were named as aides, but they were actually relied on by King Wu as his right-hand man. Jiang Bu came up with the insidious strategy of taking advantage of the fact that Zheng Ci had just arrived in Hannan officialdom and was not familiar with the political situation and personnel, to dig up the Immortal Crossing at Laolongkou to cause floods, and use the floods to instigate the people to rebel. Kong Ming, on the other hand, proposed the strategy of instigating a rebellion against the generals of the Jiangnan Navy and using the enemy to defeat the enemy. Yes, although in comparison, according to previous official information, Kong Ming does not seem to be as famous as the first staff member Jiang Bu, but in fact, this person's status in the palace of King Wu and his contribution to King Wu's rebellion, But no less than Jiang Bu.
At the same time, Jiang Bu was a man who loved vanity and showed off. He often regarded himself as the first military advisor under the command of King Wu, and his reputation became evident as he grew up. Although Kong Ming also pursues fame and fortune, he is often afraid of himself in private, so he has become much more low-key. In the middle of the rebellion, because he rushed to the Jiangnan Navy Camp to instigate rebel soldiers, he did not follow the army to continue up the river to attack Xiangyang after his success. For unknown reasons, this man strangely did not return to Jiangdu to report his victory to King Wu, but simply disappeared from everyone's sight. Until the city of Jiangdu was destroyed, King Wu Zhang Xiu committed suicide, Jiang Bu was beheaded, King Wu's family members and others were captured, and the rebellion in the southeast was quelled, the rebel strategist known as Zhuge Kongming never appeared again.
I never thought that such a person, instead of fleeing to a foreign country and hiding in the mountains and swamps to avoid detection, suddenly appeared in the capital at this time, and even found Jia San, a local gangster in the capital, and a man from the Shangshu Mansion. The peripheral accounting office has established a relationship.
Once Kong Ming¡¯s identity was revealed, Hao Changfeng couldn¡¯t sit still. Although Kong Ming is now a prisoner of the imperial court, his status is extraordinary. For such a big figure and with such a sensitive identity, Hao Changfeng is not someone who can decide where to go just by flying the feather guard flag. Hao Changfeng could check him or keep an eye on him secretly, but at this time, although the person was within his control, the decision-making power had already quietly moved up. Following Hao Changfeng's report, Qianhu Zuotong, one of the four pillars of Feiling Guard, immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. Without any hesitation, the news reached Du Ning's ears.
After receiving the report, Du Ning was also shocked. The rebellion in the southeast has been subsided, and there is no more enemy on the frontal battlefield. But the enemies on the table are gone. Who knows if there are still enemies below the table? Wu King Zhang Xiu, Jiang Bu, Zheng Sanshan, Shi Hu, Li Xian and other major rebel factions have all surrendered to the law one after another. However, the yamen of various inspection posts in the imperial court, including the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Feiling Guards, are still secretly visiting. Check it out, aren¡¯t those officials who had collaborated with the rebellion, relied on the King of Wu, and secretly communicated with the news, were still exiled, exiled, and demoted under pretexts
Now this Zhuge Kongming, instead of going to the mountains and swamps, has come to the capital at the foot of the sky. He is not just looking for a place to live, but he is flirting with people everywhere. It is obvious that he is not an honest person. What does he want? What to do?
The more Du Ning thought about it, the more he became afraid. Under the sky, in a prosperous place, people from all walks of life were mixed together. If something happened, there would be holes that could not be covered. Especially this Zhuge Kongming, who has always been cynical and participated in King Wu's rebellion. Now he comes to the capital to hang around. What he does is definitely not a good deed. If it is ten thousandIt is also possible for him to become interested in something that is detrimental to the emperor or important members of the court. Thinking of this, Du Ning quickly ordered not only to monitor Kong Ming, Wang Mo, Jia San and others around the clock, but also to send extra personnel to keep a close eye on all the people they came into contact with! At the same time, secret guards from the capital were deployed, and vigilance was also stepped up on senior officials such as Liubu Hall officials and internal scholars. Half of it means protection, and half also means supervision. For example, Wang Yuan, the Minister of War, is included in this list.
As for the defense in the palace, although Du Ning does not have the power to directly adjust the defense, he can make some appropriate influence through his own channels. Under Du Ning's secret suggestion, the Yulin Guards and Jinwu Guards who may be responsible for guarding the palace gate have quietly strengthened their manpower. Although on the surface they are not ready to face a huge enemy, they have made preparations secretly. Enough is in place.
Seeing that the arrangements all around were in place, Du Ning's heart slowly relaxed. As long as the emperor and the ministers are fine, there is room for easing things. It is not impossible to arrest people now, but it cannot solve the problem once and for all. Capturing a Kong Ming would, at best, just be regarded as a remnant of the rebellion, beheaded and done, but it would not provide a fundamental answer to the question at hand.
Why did Kong Ming come to Beijing? What is the purpose? Who is secretly communicating with him behind his back? Exchange news? Does Wang Mo represent Wang Yuan? Who else is hiding beneath the surface?
??Du Ning thought about it and realized that if he wanted to understand all this, he had to put a long line and let Kong Ming, the loach, swim as hard as he could. The more happily he swam, the greater the possibility of catching a big fish. Du Ning's idea was reasonable, but he thought very well, but he didn't expect that the fish was caught, but not only was this fish big, but it was not one fish, but a group of them He couldn't catch any of them, even he, a fisherman, couldn't catch them. Gotta get it in the water!
The person who met Kong Ming directly was not Mingyi. As Kong Ming, it is impossible for him to have any direct contact with Mingyi. The man Kong Ming met was called Guan Ping, and his apparent identity was the owner of a village in the southern suburbs of the capital. However, after Feilingwei's investigation, it was found that the manor house was actually the private property of a wealthy businessman named Fang, and this wealthy family named Fang was a distant relative of Concubine Jing. In this way, the direction of the matter took a big turn, but it not only pointed to Concubine Jing, but also to the Fang family, a high-ranking family in the court, and everyone who was closely related to Concubine Jing and the Fang family was also accepted by Yu Fei. Under the surveillance of Ling Wei, shrouded in suspicion
However, at this time, Du Ning could no longer hide it.
When the matter has been investigated to this point, it is considered over. It is not impossible to continue the investigation. However, when it comes to matters in the palace and the royal family, the decision-making power of whether to investigate or not does not belong to Du Ning, but to start an investigation. Emperor Yuan meant it. Today, when the kings surnamed Zhang are still being imprisoned and dealt with, matters concerning the royal family are all sensitive topics, and any improper handling can bring about some unexpected changes. Du Ning didn't want to fail in fishing and be eaten by fish instead. So the matter was quickly put into writing, and with the secret memorial in his arms, Du Ning entered the palace.
In Jingxin, Du Ning first said a few words, then took out the memorial from his arms and placed it on Emperor Qiyuan's desk.
Emperor Qiyuan was shocked and angry, but the calmness he had developed over the years of being in charge came into play at this time. He suppressed his thoughts and folded the piece in detail from beginning to end. Then he put his hands together and pressed the piece under He held his hand, and his eyes slowly moved to Du Ning's face.
"How many of these things are there?"
Du Ning lowered his head and said, "As of yesterday, everything was within the rules."
Emperor Qiyuan nodded slowly: "In other words, so far, this person is only doing peripheral activities, and we haven't found out who he actually met"
"yes."
"Well, keep an eye on this person, don't let him be alert, and keep letting him go. I think at this moment, how much trouble can he cause with just one shrimp Also, we might as well start from those who participated in the rebellion. , select a few people to increase the limelight; list a few more people who have made contributions in the counter-insurgency process, and promote a few people in a glorious way. After doing this for a few times, maybe with such a stimulus, things will progress a bit. "
"yes."
The stone in Du Ning's heart fell to the ground. The emperor let him go and do it. Du Ning didn't dare to investigate when someone from the emperor's family was involved, but now that he had Emperor Qiyuan's approval, if he continued to investigate, it would be official business, and the emperor would be responsible for whatever happened
However, when he heard the two points that Emperor Qi Yuan made later, Du Ning's heart skipped a beat. It's not a problem to kill a few rebels. If you are guilty of the crime, just kill them. But this promotion the emperor made it clear that he wanted to stimulate those who secretly coveted him, and promoted him openly. This was to set an example and set a benchmark. In this way, a blockbuster seems to be the way to go. In the process of countering the rebellion, he established an unparalleledSuccessful people are naturally the best candidates. Civil servants were not as eye-catching as military generals at this time, but among the military affairs, the most exciting thing was undoubtedly the bizarre victory in which more than fifty people defeated the Huai King's thousands of soldiers.
Thinking of this, a figure suddenly appeared in Du Ning's mind.
It can¡¯t be such a coincidence Probably not, I¡¯m afraid I¡¯m overthinking it. But if this person is really brought out, then I am afraid that I will inevitably be implicated
After thinking about it, Du Ning looked up Emperor Qiyuan. He was really hesitant about whether he should take this vaccination in advance.
