Chapter 42
Chapter 42
Three days had passed since Jiang Lian entered the palace.
During these three days, the Qiantui Mansion next to Yan Huaiyin's courtyard was not opened once.
Vermilion's gate was tightly closed, and the inside and outside of the mansion were so silent that there was no sound.
The change happened one afternoon three days later.
Yan Huaiyin's yard is at the innermost part of Baowen Street, and the noise from outside the street can be heard, like boiling water, the steaming heat is disturbing.
Yan Huaiyin walked out of the courtyard, he walked out of Baowen Street, and was squeezed into the crowd, without him having to tell the direction, the crowd led him to a certain place.
Yan Huaiyin followed the crowd and stopped at the entrance of a street without going far.
That street is very close to Baowen Street, almost on the opposite side of Baowen Street, and the outermost one is a rather large mansion.
The palace of the former prince.
Behind the white jade lion, the gate of the palace was wide open, and the crowd of spectators crowded around. Yan Huaiyin listened carefully, and got a rough idea.
The discussion was all about one thing - the palace was searched.
Three days after Jiang Lian entered the palace, his palace was searched.
There was a movement from inside the wide open door, and the people watching the excitement outside the door were silent for a moment, and then began to whisper in a low voice. The movement didn't last long, and they came from the door to the outside.
Among Senmo's yamen servants, every eight slaves carried a heavy box and walked out in a line.
Everyone knows what's inside that box - pieces of gold, a total of 50 taels.
Even if it was packed into such a big box and carried by hundreds of people, it would still form such a long line from inside the mansion to outside the mansion.
After the people came out, the people were silent instead, they quietly looked at the closed box.
No one can see what the gold in the chest looks like, but everyone knows who the gold belongs to.
Chen Mansion, Nanyang Marquis Mansion.
This gold does not belong to Nanyang Marquis Mansion now, but it will not reach their hands either.
Countless pairs of silent eyes watched the boxes of gold being pulled to the carriage outside the alley, and then escorted into the palace.
Yan Huaiyin was among the crowd, and also raised his eyes to look at the gate of the mansion.
In fact, he doesn't really remember what the palace he lived in for a short time was like, Yan Huaiyin thought about it, he was only eleven or twelve years old when he was crowned king.
Emperor Ming Sheng never liked him, he preferred an orchid he bought.
After Hu Ji was diagnosed as pregnant, the imperial doctor said it was a son. Emperor Ming Sheng was overjoyed and threatened to make Hu Ji's son the crown prince.
However, Yan Huaiyin, who was well-known and well-known, stood in the way. Emperor Ming Sheng thought about it, and wanted to give him a prince and send him out of the palace, so he got this palace.
Boxes of gold were loaded onto the convoy that had been prepared long ago. The first car was filled with two boxes of gold. The carriage creaked and began to drive slowly towards the palace.
Yan Huaiyin frowned and glanced at the rut that was pushed out, and slowly retreated from the crowd.
After he went back, he wrote a letter to Liu Shangqing.
Before the sun set, Liu Shangqing's reply letter was sent back, and it was the crazy princess Qi Yu who sent the letter.
Princess Ren didn't come in through the main entrance at all. When Yan Huaiyin looked up, she saw her squatting on the wall and rubbing her knees with her teeth bared.
Seeing Yan Huaiyin looking over, she felt a little embarrassed, scratched her head and said, "I'm sorry, I just started practicing light kung fu, and I can't grasp the strength."
After a long time, Yan Huaiyin asked, "Can the princess come down by herself?"
"Of course it's possible." Qi Yu said confidently, "But I'm just here to send you a letter, and I'm leaving soon."
"Here you are." Qi Yu threw the letter into his arms.
She squatted there and tilted her head, her black and white eyes were distinct: "Liu Shangqing received your letter and wrote a reply without stopping. It's rare for him to be like this."
Naturally, Yan Huaiyin couldn't tell her why, so he changed the subject with a smile: "Can the princess go down by herself?"
"It's boring." Seeing that Yan Huaiyin changed the subject, Qi Yu glanced at her lips. She lacked discipline since she was a child, but she also had an aura that had never been restrained. She patted her knees and said with a smile, "Let's go."
The time Yan Huaiyin blinked, Qi Yu fell and jumped off the wall.
Yan Huaiyin didn't care about her anymore, but looked down at the letter, Liu Shangqing was really good at calculating, Yan Huaiyin asked him the weather for the next five days, Liu Shangqing replied in the letter that the next ten days would be sunny, only two days later there would be an east wind in the middle of the night.
The east wind is good, and the long wind blows everything, and everything is clean afterwards.
Yan Huaiyin folded the letter and put it away very carefully.
He went out of the yard again, this time he did not go out of Baowen Street, but came to the gate of Chitose Mansion.
On the vermilion gate of Qiantose Mansion, Yan Huaiyin knocked lightly while holding the sterling silver door knocker.
After half a stick of incense, the door was opened.
The old butler's old face appeared in the gap. When he saw Yan Huaiyin, he sighed deeply: "Lord Yan."
Yan Huaiyin nodded, he didn't exchange too many pleasantries, and said straight to the point: "I want to see the people around Jiang Lian."
The old butler was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly, "Lord Yan, this old slave is just a butler of the Thousand Years Mansion."
There was a little smile in Yan Huaiyin's eyes: "It took me only three minutes to knock on the door knocker, and you opened the door in half a stick of incense, so you can see that you are far away from the door. An old and dim-eyed housekeeper can't do this."
Dai Shudao didn't expect him to pay attention from the moment he knocked on the door, his eyes flickered for a moment, Yan Huaiyin just looked at him like this, after a long time, Dai Shudao sighed again, and said solemnly: "Master Yan, the situation in the palace is complicated, the old slave Now I can only think of a way to meet some people around the master."
Yan Huaiyin asked: "Which people around him can I see?"
Dai Shudao raised his head: "Mr. Jiang Yang."
Yan Huaiyin just smiled: "That's enough."
A day later, Yan Huaiyin met Jiang Yang in Huae Tower.
The last time he came to Hua'e Tower, he met Nanyang Hou. This time, when he came to Hua'e Tower, he walked through scarlet green curtains, and Jiang Yang was standing next to a private room by the window.
The private room was the same private room where Jiang Lian sat last time.
Standing by the window, Jiang Yang had two deep bruises under his eye circles, and he didn't have the strength to put on any airs anymore. When he saw Yan Huaiyin coming in, Eunuch Jiang saluted in a sleepy way, and said, "My servant greets Lord Yan."
Yan Huaiyin said politely, "Hello, Mr. Xiaojiang."
There was no one to disturb the private room this time, Yan Huaiyin sat down and made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Yang: "Elder Jiang, please sit down."
"The servant won't sit down," Jiang Yang laughed, and stood beside Yan Huaiyin, "You are the imperial court official, so if you sit, I, a servant, will naturally stand beside you."
His ability to steer the rudder according to the wind is an innate talent, Jiang Lian kicked for whom in front of the Cang Ning Palace, Xiao Jiang Gonggong saw it clearly.
This kind of person, how dare he sit on an equal footing with him.
Yan Huaiyin didn't pay attention to his words, he just raised his head and asked: "Is Jiang Lian really unable to come out?"
Hearing his words, Jiang Yang's face wrinkled into a ball, and his mouth was crying a bit: "Master Yan, this is not easy!"
"How old are you still crying?" Yan Huaiyin tapped the corner of the table with his fingertips, "Speak well."
"Come on," Jiang Yang withdrew his crying freely, and said solemnly, "You don't know, there was nothing wrong with my master entering the palace, after all, the silver appeared in the master's mansion, and the master and the emperor have a good time." Explain, explain, how can I leave the palace the next morning."
"But you see, the following incident happened," Jiang Yang said in a story, "The emperor went to the imperial concubine Zhou's palace that night, and the imperial concubine Zhou did not know what to say to the emperor. The second time the emperor locked my master in In the small building, no one is allowed to go in and see it!"
The small building is equivalent to another cold palace in the imperial palace. It is different from the concubines and concubines in the cold palace. The court ladies and eunuchs who have committed crimes will be locked in first, and they will be dealt with after a decision is made.
After speaking, Jiang Yang raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes.
He covered his eyes with his hands, and went to secretly look at Yan Huaiyin, and saw his eyes looking at him, under the sunlight, they were so clear, as if he could understand everything.
Jiang Yang paused, and honestly withdrew his hand.
Seeing him lowering his head peacefully, Yan Huaiyin said softly: "Jiang Lian controls the entire palace, and the Holy Majesty's will cannot be passed on outside the Cangning Palace. Locking him in a small building or any place in the palace There is no difference, as long as he is in the palace, no one can trap him."
"Eunuch Xiao Jiang," Yan Huaiyin rolled his eyes, "What did Concubine Zhou Gui tell the emperor, as Jiang Lian's apprentice, you should know, am I right?"
What Zhou Guifei said to the emperor is the key.Jiang Lian's eyeliner was everywhere in the palace, no matter what she said, she couldn't escape Jiang Lian's ears.
Jiang Yang was in cold sweat from what he said, and Yan Huaiyin's voice sounded again: "Of course, you don't have to tell me these things, but if you don't tell me, I can't do anything about Jiang Lian Nevermind."
"Say, my servant said," Jiang Yang paused, rolled his eyes, and said hastily, "It's the imperial concubine who said that although the emperor needs a master, the master has Dongchang and Jinyiwei in his hands. The Jiangbei camp is still in his hands, and an eunuch will certainly shock the Lord."
There are 50 people in the Jiangbei camp, Jiang Yang holds half of them, and 25 people. If he wants to rebel, the dragon chair of Emperor Chengde is enough for him to kick back and forth like a shuttlecock.
Jiang Yang shook his head and said, "The imperial concubine also said, Master used to be cautious in everything, but now he finally made a mistake, why don't you take this opportunity to take back the military power of the Jiangbei Camp."
"The Holy Majesty favors Concubine Zhou very much, and he is not annoyed when the concubine said so," Jiang Yang said, "I just listened to it."
Yan Huaiyin understood what he said.
Concubine Zhou Guifei's move is really high. In this way, no one in the palace is restricting Jiang Lian from leaving the palace at this time, but Jiang Lian is indeed not allowed to leave the palace.
If he leaves the palace, Emperor Chengde will immediately use it to claim the military power of the Jiangbei camp. Jiang Lian is an eunuch, so it is not up to him where this matter is placed.
He could only deal with Emperor Chengde in the palace, but after dealing with it for a long time, he was most afraid of talking about the question of whose military power belonged to him.After fighting for a long time, this is yours, and it is not yours anymore.
The only way is for someone to prove his innocence.
But Jiang Lian was alone and trapped in the palace all these years. This matter was dangerous, and he was sincerely dealing with no one outside the palace for a while.
There was nothing to say anymore, Yan Huaiyin stood up, he said to Jiang Yang: "You go back, tell Jiang Lian, I will help him."
Jiang Yang didn't expect his attitude to change so quickly, and said blankly: "Is it so easy?"
He thought he would persuade Yan Huaiyin for a long time.
Yan Huaiyin rolled up his sleeves and said softly, "The cold noodles are delicious."
"He made cold noodles for me." Yan Huaiyin bent his lips, "I will give him back the undisputed military power of the Jiangbei Camp."
"Eunuch Xiaojiang, your master does know how to do business."
