A knife in love

Chapter 3097

When Qu Rentian said this, he glanced at Cai Ting, and then said: "The emperor has never arrested your lord for questioning, not because he wanted to let you go, but because your lord has guarded Guangdong for many years, this is a barren land with many barbarians. If someone else is the governor of Guangdong, it may not be able to control the situation. Ever since Emperor Taizu sent generals Xu Da and Chang Yuchun to drive the Tartars out of the Central Plains, until the current emperor takes the throne, he has always regarded the Tartars as the biggest Enemy. Since ascending the throne, he has been busy using troops against the Tartars. If there is a turmoil in Lingnan, he will not be able to deal with the Tartars with all his strength, so he temporarily let you go. Now that the overall situation of the world is settled, the Tartars are far away in Mobei. Not daring to go south to intrude easily, the emperor finally freed his hands, and naturally it was time to settle the old accounts. If you don't believe me, you might as well think about it carefully. Three years ago, Mr. Peng, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Mr. Hu, the right servant of the Ministry of Officials, and Mr. Zou, Governor of Jiangxi, successively He was convicted and his family was ransacked. Last year, Governor Zhu of Yunnan, Lord Jiang of Yizhou Prefecture, and Lord Lan Lan of Pingfu Prefecture were punished by the clan. Since this year, Minister Zhao of the Ministry of Officials and Governor Wu of Guizhou have been executed by the emperor successively. These lords are all officials whose names were recorded in the article calling for Yan. Are you still not vigilant?"

The more Cai Jue listened, the more frightened he became. After Qu Rentian finished speaking, his face was as pale as paper, and his body shook like chaff. Thinking of Zhu Di's cruel and vicious methods when he slaughtered the ministers, he couldn't bear it any longer, trembling while holding the table He stood up, bowed to Qu Rentian, and said in a trembling voice: "First, sir, save me, sir, save me!"

Qu Rentian hastily helped Cai Jue up, not daring to say anything, and helped him back to the chair, then he said solemnly: "Your Excellency spends a lot of money to hire students as guest assistants, and you are very dependent on students. Students should feel as if they are adults. , work faithfully."

Cai Ting sat back on the chair, his thoughts changed sharply, he thought to himself that I changed my name just to avoid a catastrophe, since the surname Qu knew about it, he must not be allowed to live in this world.It's just that I don't know if he told others about it, so I have to find a way to find out.If he didn't disclose the matter, it would not be difficult to kill him with one knife, but if he had already told others about it, things would be a bit tricky, and all those who knew about it had to be eliminated.Therefore, he still has to save his dog's life right now, and he cannot be killed immediately.Moreover, this person is quite resourceful, you might as well use him to get through the difficulties, and then kill him before it's too late.

Thinking of this, Cai Ting nodded and said: "I regard Mr. Qu as a good friend. If Mr. Qu can help me survive this catastrophe, I must thank you very much."

Qu Rentian shook his head, and said: "The students are determined to do things for the adults, not to earn money, but to repay the adults for their kindness."

When Qu Rentian said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "Today, I had a grudge against the adults, and I regarded the adults as Emperor Jianwen's confidantes, so I wanted to get rid of them quickly. However, Emperor Jianwen showed his whereabouts. And heading south all the way, how can you not doubt that you miss the old master, and want to welcome Emperor Jianwen to Guangdong, support him as emperor, and rebel?"

Hearing what Qu Rentian said, Cai Jue's heart hung in his throat again, and he said in a trembling voice: "I definitely have no such treasonous plans, a loyalty, the world can learn from it!"

Qu Rentian smiled and said: "At present, Emperor Jianwen suddenly shows up and hastily went south to Guangdong. It seems like a crisis, but it is also a great opportunity. Your Excellency must catch Emperor Jianwen before the imperial guards and Governor Huang of Fujian, etc. Then send it to the capital and hand it over to the emperor, this is a great contribution, the emperor will naturally not suspect that the lord is unfaithful to him."

After Qu Rentian finished speaking, Cai Ting stomped his feet and said, "I don't know that in order to regain the trust of the present, Emperor Jianwen must be captured and killed. It's just that I don't know where Emperor Jianwen is at the moment. I sent someone to Where can I get him?"

Qu Rentian chuckled, and said: "At first we didn't have any clues. It would be more difficult to capture Emperor Jianwen than ascending to the sky. It's just that God will help you, and send Mr. Shang and his group from the capital to your presence. The students just now Secretly paying attention to the person surnamed Shang, he found that he paid a lot of attention to Zen Master Zhengyi, and the origin of this Zen Master Zhengyi is indeed suspicious. Even if he is not Emperor Jianwen, he must be the confidant of Emperor Jianwen. We only need to Keep an eye on the actions of Shang and Yang's group in secret. If Shang concludes that Zen Master Zhengyi is Emperor Jianwen and leads someone to arrest Zen Master Zhengyi, we will give him a praying mantis to catch cicadas. Zen master Zhengyi was snatched from the gang surnamed Shang, and the lord personally escorted him to the capital. At that time, when the emperor saw that the lord personally captured Zhengyi, he naturally no longer suspected that the lord was the best friend of Emperor Jianwen. I will not embarrass you, and I will use you again. Even if Zhengyi is not Emperor Jianwen, but a confidant of Emperor Jianwen, it will be of great use. After we capture him, we can torture him as much as possible to force him to tell the truth about Emperor Jianwen. Over there, capturing or killing Emperor Jianwen is still a great achievement. Therefore, no matter how this matter is handled, it will be extremely beneficial to your lord, so what are you worried about?"

After Cai Ting heard Qu Rentian finished speaking, he put his hanging heart back into his stomach, and secretly thanked himself for not yelling just now, calling for the guards to rush into the house and kill Qu Rentian.He thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, looked up at Qu Rentian, and then continued: "Isn't it Mr. Qu who led Zhengyi to my mansion that day? With Mr. Qu's shrewdness, why didn't he look at it?" Does this person have other plans?"

Qu Rentian didn't panic at all when he heard Cai Jue questioning himself suddenly, and said, "My lord is right, it is indeed the student who brought Zhengyi, the bald thief, to the lord's mansion. This is because the student heard that this person haunted Yashan Town. , I became suspicious of him, but I can't conclude what relationship he has with Emperor Jianwen, and I can't capture him at will. But if I ignore him, once someone captures him, this great achievement has nothing to do with the adults, and the emperor will still be suspicious My lord is Emperor Jianwen's best friend. That's why the students introduced him to my lord, and I asked my lord to write a letter asking Master Chengxin to take him in. This is to put this person under our noses. Once it is determined that he is Jian Emperor Wen, or Emperor Jianwen's confidant, we can catch him right away, and we will eliminate the serious troubles for your lord."

Hearing what Qu Rentian said with confidence, Cai Jue felt at ease, and thought to himself that if this dog thief sincerely worked for me, he would indeed be a very capable subordinate.It's just that he knows my secret, so he can't be kept anyway.After I get rid of this bastard, when I hire a master again, I have to personally check the identity of the person, so as not to be deceived again.It's just that right now we have to rely on the power of this dog thief, and we can't kill him yet.
