Chapter 117 Dazed Li Huan's Judgment Ceremony 【Order】
Shi Wenyi and the others' eyes lit up when they heard the words, and their faces showed unconcealable excitement, but all of them turned their attention to Li Huan.
Li Huan took a deep breath, glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "All of you, come with me to meet His Majesty."
Following Li Huan, a group of people quickly walked out of the school grounds, headed by Shi Wenyi and Li Huan, looking into the distance.
At this time, you can already see the faint smoke and dust emerging, needless to say that the emperor's Luanjia is coming soon.
Soon the guard of honor opened the way, with the guards guarding the left and right, and a mighty group of people came to the school grounds. Li Huan and others all came forward to bow down.
"My ministers welcome you, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Houzhao walked out from the Luanjia, looked at Li Huan and the others with a slight smile, and said, "Your Majesty, you are free from courtesy, and you will be flat!"
While speaking, Zhu Houzhao had already walked in front of Li Huan, and stretched out his big hand to help Li Huan up. Such treatment only made Shi Wenyi and others envious.
All along, they only knew that Li Huan was favored by the emperor, but it was the first time they saw him like this, and they felt nothing but envy.
Li Huan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the three thousand guards have lined up and are waiting for your majesty to inspect!"
Zhu Houzhao laughed and said, "Okay, follow me to review the army."
Just looking at the excitement in Zhu Houzhao's eyes, you can know Zhu Houzhao's preference for martial arts. This is known from Li Huan's visit to Zhu Houzhao when he entered the palace, and seeing Zhu Houzhao's playful act of ordering his servants to pretend to be soldiers and rush into the battle.
When Zhu Houzhao, accompanied by Li Huan, Shi Wenyi and others, boarded the general platform and looked down at the three thousand guards who were neatly arranged, he couldn't help but feel infinite pride in his heart. This is my guards. military!
"Soldiers, you have worked hard..."
No one thought that Zhu Houzhao would speak suddenly. After all, it is not uncommon for the emperor to come to the performance in person, but he usually just comes to sit in the town. Few emperors would speak on their own initiative like Zhu Houzhao.
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao's sudden performance made everyone stunned for a moment, not only Shi Wenyi, Li Huan, Gu Dayong, Zhang Yong and others on the stage were stunned, but also the guards and soldiers below. He also looked at Zhu Houzhao who was talking to them on the high platform with an unbelievable gaze.
Zhu Houzhao, who was dressed in a yellow dragon robe, was only eighteen or nineteen years old. He was a young man with a heroic appearance, and his voice was as clear as a young phoenix. Originally, the audience was silent, but when Zhu Houzhao spoke, 3000 people heard the emperor's voice clearly. sound.
"Your Majesty has spoken to us, Your Majesty has spoken to us..."
For an instant, all the guards and soldiers had only one thought in their minds, and then three thousand guards and soldiers bowed down to Zhu Houzhao in unison, shouting: "Die for Your Majesty!"
Three thousand strong and strong men shouted in unison, their voices moved the heavens, and for a moment there was no other sound except the voices of the guards.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the guards who were half kneeling on the ground below and shouted in unison, his face was a little flushed, he took a step forward, stretched out his hand and said: "All generals and soldiers, excuse me!"
At this moment, Li Huan and the others also reacted. Seeing the reaction of all the guards and soldiers as if they had been beaten because of Zhu Houzhao's sudden opening, they couldn't help looking at Zhu Houzhao worriedly, for fear that Zhu Houzhao would cause some trouble.
You must know that if Zhu Houzhao said something exciting, no one can guarantee the reaction of the 3000 people below. If something goes wrong later, none of them will suffer.
Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao didn't do anything after satisfying his addiction to patrolling the army, but gave up his position to Li Huan.
Li Huan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the crowd below, and said solemnly: "All soldiers, the martial arts performance has officially begun!"
Following Li Huan's order, and under the restraint and guidance of grassroots officials in the bodyguards, Zhao Yi and Chen Ke, two thousands of household officials, personally sat in charge, and 3000 people began to perform on the huge school grounds.
Although performing this kind of thing can't measure the combat power of a soldier and horse, if you can't even do the shelf work well, then this team of troops will probably not be very strong.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the martial arts below with great interest. It seemed that he couldn't help nodding his head with a smile on his face when he saw a team performing well. Of course, if he saw a team performing poorly, Zhu Houzhao would also Can't help but frown.
A full hour passed, and when the three thousand guards gathered under the general's platform again, although they were no longer as energetic as before, the guards did not show signs of sluggishness. If you look at it, if you don't mention anything else, at least this energy is quite sufficient.
Li Huan watched the three thousand guards stand upright, turned to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, the martial arts performance is over."
Zhu Houzhao's face was full of smiles, he looked at Li Huan and said, "The Qing family is bothering you. The three thousand guards will be ready. The Qing family should remember the first merit. What do you want me to reward you for?"
Li Huan said seriously: "Returning to your majesty, this is just the duty of the minister. Your majesty rewards the minister for this, but the minister is ashamed to accept it."
Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly and said: "Forget it, since that's the case, I will make a note for the time being, and I will reward you when Riqing makes new achievements in the future."
However, Li Huan's rejection of the emperor's reward does not mean that Li Huan did not ask for credit for Zhao Yi, Chen Ke and others, and Zhu Houzhao also offered rewards to Zhao Yi, Chen Ke and others recommended by Li Huan.
As soon as the emperor Jinkou opened, he directly appointed Zhao Yi and Chen Ke as the commanders of Jinyiwei, and rewarded him with gold, silver, jade and silk.
Chen Ke, Zhao Yi and the others were very grateful. After paying homage to the Son of Heaven, they felt even more grateful to Li Huan. As for Shi Wenyi, the commander of Jin Yiwei, who watched this scene from the side, his heart was filled with emotion.
If he had had the guts of Li Huan back then, and accepted the emperor's edict to reorganize the guards, maybe he should be the one who is valued by the emperor now.
However, Shi Wenyi also knew in his heart that even though he envied Li Huan the favor he received now, even if he was given another chance to choose, he would still make the same choice and offend civil servants and officials. It's dangerous, maybe he will be labeled as a treason at some point, and his family will be wiped out.
After the school field drill, Zhu Houzhao really immediately ordered Li Huan's group to select elites from among the [-] bodyguards to form palace guards and emperor guards of honor to replace the previous guards and guards of honor.
Of the two, one is responsible for the guards of the imperial city, and the other is responsible for the ceremonial guards and safety of the emperor's travel.
In order to select candidates who have no problems, Li Huan, Chen Ke, Zhao Yi and others even used the power of the Jinyiwei system to sort out and investigate the selected personnel over and over again, and finally determined the candidates.
It took less than half a month for Li Huan to replace the guards of the imperial city and the guard of honor of the emperor after he finished his work.
However, Cai Changgui, the treasurer of Zuiyuelou, knocked on Sun Xiang's door with an excited expression on his face.
With a creak, the door opened and stood tall. Sun Xiang, who was wearing a green shirt, looked at Cai Changgui who was beaming with joy, and said in his heart, "Master Cai, is there some happy event?"
Shopkeeper Cai smiled, and handed a piece of paper to Sun Xiang with some joy: "Mr. Sun, just look, this is all the news about that person, but I have recorded all the information I can collect on it." gone."
Sun Xiang's eyes lit up, he reached out and took the piece of paper, and looked at the densely packed records on the paper.
Li Huan, a native of Changle County, Fuzhou Prefecture, Fujian Province, entered Beijing in the first year of Zhengde...
I have to say that shopkeeper Cai's intelligence gathering ability is quite good. The information about Li Huan recorded on it is extremely detailed, and after Sun Xiang read it, his face was full of surprise.
After a while Sun Xiang said with emotion on his face: "Li Huan, what a Li Huan, he has such luck, but such a lucky minister of the emperor usually has only two final results, either he was abandoned by the emperor and died a terrible death, or he died for the sake of Protected by the Son of Heaven, he will rise to the top and be extremely honored and favored."
Speaking of which, Sun Xiang couldn't help frowning slightly and muttered softly: "It's strange, Li Huan, why does the name Li Huan sound familiar, where did I hear it?"
As one of Cai Wen's few confidantes, Sun Xiang has always been entrusted with important tasks by Cai Wen. There are few things Cai Wen wants to do that he doesn't know.
Normally speaking, Sun Xiang would definitely know that Cai Wen sought the position of the hereditary official of the Li family of Langqi Islet for the sake of maritime interests.
But compared to Cai Wen's huge power and too many affairs to be dealt with, it is not very important to seek Langqi Islet, and it is not surprising that Sun Xiang didn't know about it.
Of course, the main reason why Sun Xiang didn't know about Li Huan was that Sun Xiang was under Cai Wen's command and was mainly responsible for helping Cai Wen maintain his connections in the capital. It can be said that he was on the way between Fujian and the capital all year round.
Sun Xiang felt that the familiarity of Li Huan's name was not because he really knew about Cai Wen's pursuit of Langqi Island, but because he had entered Beijing a few days ago and heard people talking about Li Huan, which made him feel familiar.
Therefore, although Sun Xiang and Cai Changgui, who are in charge of the dynamics of the capital, say that they have a high status under Cai Wen's command, they really don't know about the people under Cai Wen's command to seek Langqi Island.
Cai Changgui looked at Sun Xiang and said, "Mr. Sun, what do you think of us following Li Huan's path? Could you borrow his hand to go to heaven and let your lord be transferred to the capital."
Sun Xiang narrowed his eyes and muttered slightly: "This person is His Majesty's lucky minister today, and he has won the favor of the Son of Heaven. If he can really say a few words for His Majesty in front of His Majesty, it is naturally not a problem to transfer Your Majesty to Beijing. But……"
Speaking of which, Sun Xiang frowned, looking at the information about Li Huan on the paper.
Cai Changgui couldn't help but anxiously said: "Mr. Sun, you said it, but how?"
Sun Xiang glanced at Cai Changgui and said: "But we don't know what he likes at all. It's the so-called doing what he likes and moving his heart, so it's easy to ask for help, isn't it?"
Cai Changgui was stunned for a moment, and said immediately: "It doesn't matter what he likes or not, if you want me to say, everyone in this world has only one hobby, and that is to love money and love money!"
Seeing Cai Changgui's resolute appearance, Sun Xiang couldn't help being silent for a while, although Cai Changgui's words were a bit absolute, but it was an undeniable truth in the world.
People in the world love money. If there are people who do not love money, there must be, but they are definitely very few, not one in a million.
Looking at Cai Changgui, Sun Xiang frowned and said, "What do you mean!"
Cai Changgui laughed and said: "Then Li Huan is young and suddenly won the favor of the emperor, so he must not have much experience. You said at this time, if we throw a large amount of gold and silver at him, will he be able to bear it? "
Sun Xiang was stunned, looked at Cai Changgui with a strange expression, and then sighed: "You are right, this is feasible."
Cai Changgui was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Since Mr. thinks this is feasible, why don't we first understand Mr. Bing, and then bribe Li Huan..."
Sun Xiang shook his head confidently and said, "I will write a secret letter myself to inform you about this matter in detail."
As he spoke, he took a look at Cai Changgui, and Sun Xiang said: "I have the right to specialize. My lord once said that the capital is far away from Fujian, and it is inconvenient to transmit information. Once some opportunities are missed, they will never come back. So tell me, Beijing Everything in it is up to me to decide, so as not to delay the opportunity, I just need to explain to him afterwards."
Cai Changgui nodded and said: "Your Excellency regards you as your shoulder, and entrusts you with all matters in Beijing. No matter what you do or make decisions, Cai will definitely cooperate with all your strength."
Sun Xiang was very satisfied with Cai Changgui's attitude. Although Cai Changgui was a member of the Cai Wen clan, could it be that Cai Changgui kept his duty and knew how to advance and retreat? No wonder he was able to stay in the capital for so many years and control the eyes and ears of the capital for Cai Wen.
Stroking his beard, Sun Xiang said: "My lord ordered me to go to Beijing this time, and I brought 20 taels of gold and silver again. It was originally for the purpose of clearing up the relationship. I asked Xie Qian to help me transfer my lord to Beijing for use as soon as possible. Now it seems that these gold and silver are used in Li Huan is perfect for it."
Cai Changgui was slightly surprised: "Do you want to give all the gold and silver to Li Huan?"
Sun Xiang's eyes flickered brightly and said: "Since you want to bribe Li Huan, you should spend all your gold and silver on it. I don't believe that Li Huan is not interested in 20 taels of gold and silver. As long as your lord can be transferred to the capital, sit What is a mere 10 taels of gold and silver for the last hall official?"
While talking, Sun Xiang said again: "As for the purpose of the money, I will also inform the adults. I believe that the adults will definitely agree with it if they know about it."
Cai Changgui nodded and said: "Your Excellency has always been very courageous. If giving Li Huan 20 taels of gold and silver can help him ascend to the position of a ministry, Your Excellency will definitely do it without hesitation."
The more Sun Xiang thought about it, the more excited he became, and he said to Cai Changgui without wanting to wait for a moment: "Cai Changgui, go and prepare a generous gift. Today I will visit Li Huan, the lucky minister of the emperor, and pave the way for my lord to reach heaven!"
Cai Changgui left in response.
In a dense forest a few miles away from the capital, a dozen strong and strong men were resting in the forest.
I heard one of them say to the leader with a scarred face: "Brother, we have been guarding here for three or four days, and we haven't seen Cheng Yi's ghost. Do you think it's Du Lao Ertian and theirs?" Bian already succeeded?"
The scar-faced man glared at his brother and said: "Stop talking nonsense, our task is to guard outside the capital, if Du Er Er and the others can take down Cheng Yi, that would be great, if Du Er Er and others are useless, At that time, we still have to come to the bottom."
The man couldn't help but chuckled and said: "It's said that the capital is prosperous, and even the women in the capital have a different taste. After we finish the task, you might as well take the brothers to play, so that we brothers... "
Mentioning this point, the rest of the listless men suddenly shook their spirits, and looked at the scar-faced man with bloodshot eyes.
The scar-faced man frowned, and snorted coldly: "Okay, as long as the task is completed, isn't it just to find a few girls from the capital? Then you won't get out of bed for three days, and I don't bother to pay attention to you..."
As he spoke, the scar-faced man ordered everyone to keep an eye on the sentry post, while he straightened his body, climbed up a big tree, and looked towards the direction of the capital from a distance.
As one of the pirate bosses under Cai Wen's subordinates, the scar-faced man can be sent to cover the bottom line, so it goes without saying that he is also one of Cai Wen's confidantes.
At this moment, the scar-faced man was listening to the group of subordinates below excitedly discussing what the girls in the brothel in the capital would be like, but his mind was drifting towards the capital.
The people under him didn't know, but he knew that his lord had arranged a foothold in the capital, and he thought in his heart that after completing the task, he could go to that foothold to have a look.
On this day, Li Huan got off the Yamen and strolled home, followed by a small banner of Jinyiwei.
Not long after Li Huan entered the courtyard, before he washed his face, he heard a scolding from outside: "Who are you waiting for?"
Li Huan has good ears and eyesight, although the voice of Captain Jin Yiwei who was patrolling outside the courtyard was not too loud, but Li Huan could hear him clearly.
Sun Xiang got off from a carriage, bowed his hands to the captain of Jinyiwei who stopped him, and at the same time stuffed a piece of scattered silver into the opponent's hand without a trace, and said: "My next Sun Xiang, from Fujian, is Mr. Li Huan I am from my hometown, and I am here to visit Master Li Huan."
The captain felt the heavy silver stuffed into his hand, smiled slightly and said: "So that's the case, you wait here for a while, I will report to you."
As he said that, the captain reminded: "Don't go forward again, otherwise, even if you are taken, you have nothing to say."
Li Huan heard a knock on the door, and a young eunuch opened the door. The school captain strode in and saw that Li Huan first offered him the money Sun Xiang gave him: "My lord, some people outside say that he is from the same village as your lord." , I want to ask to see you, this is the money he gave..."
Li Huan smiled slightly and said, "Just share the money with your brothers. Go and bring that man to me."
Li Huan has no opinion on the matter of his subordinates taking money from others, as long as he is not blackmailing the other party, he is happy to see the result.
Of course, the premise is that these subordinates have to know what money can be taken and what money cannot be taken. For this reason, he has killed several Jinyiwei who leaked his whereabouts for money. This is the rule, so he can be selected to follow him Beside him, Jin Yiwei, who was in charge of his personal safety, knew Li Huan's rules better than anyone else.
Soon Sun Xiang was brought into the yard. When Sun Xiang saw Li Huan, he just glanced at him, and his heart was full of shock.
Although I knew that Li Huan was young, but after seeing Li Huan, I found out that Li Huan was frighteningly young. He was only a senior official of the third rank at the age of eighteen. Think about Cai Wen, who worked hard in the officialdom for more than ten years. It's just an official of the third rank.
It can be said that Li Huan directly surpassed [-]% of the officials in this world.
While feeling emotional in his heart, Sun Xiang bowed respectfully to Li Huan and said, "Sun Xiang, a scholar from Jianning Prefecture in Fujian Province, pays his respects to Your Excellency."
Li Huan frowned, and when Sun Xiang looked at him, Li Huan had already recognized Sun Xianglai, who was the same group he had met in Zuiyue Tower.
Li Huan recognized Sun Xiang and couldn't help sighing secretly that the world is really small, and it was considered a one-sided relationship at the beginning, but he never thought that today the other party would come to see him in person.
With his expression unchanged, Li Huan looked at Sun Xiang with a slight smile and said, "Oh, I never thought that you are from Fujian. I don't know why Sun Xiucai came to see Li."
Sun Xiang looked left and right, Li Huan waved his hands, and the captain of Jinyiwei and the young eunuch who served him stepped back.
Sun Xiang then said: "Can my lord allow the box on the carriage to be carried in?"
Li Huan nodded at Cao Yu who was guarding not far away and said, "Cao Yu, go for a walk."
Cao Yu responded and walked out of the courtyard. Soon after, Cao Yu with a look of astonishment came in, followed by four captains of Jin Yiwei, carrying a large box with great difficulty.
Just looking at the strenuous looks of the four Jinyiwei captains, one can tell that the contents of the box must be very heavy.
Li Huan couldn't help feeling a little curious, seeing Sun Xiang's mysterious appearance, what was in this box?
Sun Xiang took a step forward, stretched out his hand to open the box, and suddenly the brilliance of gold, silver and jewelry flashed.
However, Li Huan was only slightly taken aback when he saw this situation, and it's not like he hasn't seen gold and silver things before.
It is not uncommon for him to have seen 10 taels of gold and silver when the Fang clan was wiped out. The box of gold, silver and jewelry in front of him is probably only worth a few tens of thousands of taels in total, and it won't make him lose his temper.
Sun Xiang, who had been paying attention to the changes in Li Huan's expression, naturally saw Li Huan's expression in his eyes, and couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart that Li Huan was able to be so calm and unaffected by so many gold and silver jewels, and to be favored by the emperor , it is not a fluke.
At the same time, Sun Xiang also secretly rejoiced that he took a gamble and didn't just send these gold and silver jewels, otherwise, depending on Li Huan's reaction, he might not be able to impress the other party to speak for his lord.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Sun Xiang moved forward, took a simple wooden box in his hand, and then opened it under Li Huan's watchful eyes, and saw a stack of beautifully crafted bank notes floating in front of Li Huan .
Sun Xiang said with a smile on his face: "Master Li, this is a bank note of 15 taels from Sitong Bank. You can exchange it for silver with this bank note. You can exchange it for gold and silver at any time."
Now even Li Huan couldn't help but be a little surprised, the other party was really generous, the 15 taels of silver notes, plus the box of gold, silver and jewelry, probably added up to a huge 20 taels.
So much wealth, to be honest, is definitely the only thing Li Huan has seen in his life.
When I first met Sun Xiang and others, I just guessed that the other party should be someone sent by a high-ranking official in Fujian to the capital to try to follow Xie Qian's career.
After settling his mind, Li Huan looked at Sun Xiang seriously and said, "What do you mean?"
Sun Xiang smiled slightly, straightened his clothes, bowed to Li Huan, and said, "I beg Mr. Li to say a few words for my Dong Weng. No matter what the result is, these gold and silver things are considered my Dong Weng's heart. .”
Li Huan just looked at Sun Xiang like that, and didn't speak for a long time.
After a while, just when Sun Xiang couldn't help but feel a little nervous and worried, Li Huan suddenly laughed, and helped Sun Xiang who bowed his waist and said: "What did Mr. Sun say? Who is sacred, how can I help Li?"
Seeing that Li Huan called him Mr. with such enthusiasm, Sun Xiang's heart suddenly fell. It seems that Cai Changgui was right. There is no one in the world who does not love money. If you say it, it is money. Not enough.
Didn't see this young man succeeds, Li Huan, who is in the heart of the emperor, is not moved by the 20 taels of wealth.
Sun Xiang, who was more confident, walked into the living room with Li Huan, sat down, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "So that Mr. Li will know that my Dong Weng is Mr. Cai Wencai, Fujian's procurator for punishment. It can be said that Dong Weng has devoted himself to governing the judiciary of a province, and now he wants to go to Beijing to serve the emperor in front of the emperor, so Dong Weng Zhiyuan, please be able to serve as the emperor, if he succeeds, he will be rewarded heavily in the future."
Li Huan's heart tightened, obviously he didn't expect that the other party was a third-rank senior official in charge of a province's judiciary, but just looking at the other party's gamble of 10 taels of wealth, Li Huan knew that the other party's fear was not good official.
It's not that good officials are good. If the other party is a good official, who would take the initiative to send such a huge amount of wealth to the door.
Thoughts turned in his heart, Li Huan's face was filled with a smile, he pondered for a while, and under Sun Xiang's expectant eyes, he nodded quite reservedly and said: "Leave your master's name card, and I will help you speak up for your majesty." , but Li can't guarantee what the final result will be."
Sun Xiang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and couldn't hide the excitement on his face. While taking out the name card from his cuff, he bowed to Li Huan and said, "I'll leave everything to Mr. Li."
Watching the excited Sun Xiang leave, a crisp and sweet voice said: "My lord, that is a property worth 20 taels. If you really want to accept it, if..."
Li Huan was the only one who could talk to Li Huan like this, Li Huan regarded Lian Qiao as a family member, seeing Lian Qiao's worried face, Li Huan couldn't help laughing and said: "Why, are you worried about your son? "
Lian Qiao coquettishly said: "Young master, if people find out about this, under impeachment, His Majesty will not punish you for committing corruption and perverting the law."
Li Huan smiled, walked to the open box, glanced at it, his eyes lit up, he reached into it, and saw a necklace made of milky white pearls, which was really eye-catching, round and full, warm in the hand, It is definitely a high-quality product among the high-quality products, and the value of this string is probably thousands of taels.
"ah!"
Seeing the string of pearls in Li Huan's hand, Forsythia couldn't help but her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help making a coquettish cry.
Li Huan pulled the forsythia over, and in the astonishment of the forsythia, put the string of necklaces between the necks of the forsythia. gas.
"That's right, here's your reward!"
Lian Qiao shook her head in shock, while trying to take off the necklace, she said: "No, no, this thing is something a servant can bear."
Li Huan pressed Lianqiao's hand, and Lianqiao's body froze immediately, as if her acupuncture points had been tapped, her pink and pretty face was filled with red clouds, and her breathing became a little short.
Even Li Huan was a little dazed, he never thought that he just wanted to stop Lian Qiao from taking off the necklace, but this turned out to be the case.
"Bah..."
Accompanied by an exclamation, Lian Qiao's body went limp, then she staggered, glared at Li Huan in embarrassment and annoyance, turned around and ran away, without mentioning anything about the pearl necklace.
At this moment, Li Huan looked at the beautiful figure of Lianqiao running into the room, and looked at his big hand that fell in the air, and couldn't help but have some aftertaste.
The air was still filled with the faint daughter fragrance of Forsythia, but at this moment Li Huan had come to his senses, and said to Cao Yu who was huddled in the distance and lowered his head: "Cao Yu, come here."
Seeing Cao Yu's body swaying, he came to the front in a few breaths, bowed and said, "My lord, what are your orders?"
Li Huan smiled slightly, and threw the wooden box containing 15 taels of silver bills to Cao Yudao: "Go, find Ma Ming, and ask him to bring a team of people to the Stone Bank for me to bring back the silver. "
Cao Yu naturally didn't discount Li Huan's order, he nodded immediately and said, "I will go find Ma Baihu."
As the night gradually fell, there were three large carriages with several heavy boxes on them, which creaked and left an obvious rut on the ground, and slowly drove into the alley.
Ma Ming walked into the courtyard solemnly, just in time to see Li Huan teaching a group of young eunuchs to practice swordsmanship there.
Although the swordsmanship looks quite exquisite, in Ma Ming's view, it's just that. When it comes to fighting, the swordsmanship practiced by these little eunuchs may not be so powerful.
Walking closer, Ma Ming said respectfully: "My lord, this subordinate has been ordered to take the things back."
When he said this, Ma Ming's heart beat a little faster, and he couldn't help being nervous and excited. It was a full 15 taels of cash, and there were several big white boxes, and everyone who watched it jumped.
Fortunately, the Jinyiwei who went with him were all carefully selected and trustworthy people, otherwise, Ma Ming was really worried that the money would touch people's hearts, and some people couldn't help but think about those money.
Pulling out so much cash from the bank at one time can't be concealed even if you want to hide it, unless you exchange it bit by bit by yourself, but there is no guarantee that you won't be targeted if you go to the bank to exchange it alone. If you are targeted, the trouble will be even greater.
So the best way is to choose the most reliable person like now, and bring them back at one time. Even if someone with a heart meets and finds that the person who took the money is a member of Jinyiwei, no one will dare to have any thoughts.
Li Huan glanced at Ma Ming, nodded slightly and said: "Drive the carriage into the next yard, and ask your men to keep an eye on me, and follow me into the palace tomorrow."
Ma Ming was taken aback when he heard the words, and then realized, his eyes lit up and he subconsciously said: "My lord, you want to take those things..."
Li Huan glanced at Ma Ming indifferently, Ma Ming reacted immediately, stood with his hands down and said, "This subordinate is talking too much, I'll just go and look at those things, even if I can't sleep a night, I won't let those things go away." The subordinate's line of sight."
[A large chapter of more than 8000 characters, just now because of a paragraph of description was reviewed, the readers who automatically set it don't know if they saw it, blame me, I didn't grasp the speed. 】
(End of this chapter)
Shi Wenyi and the others' eyes lit up when they heard the words, and their faces showed unconcealable excitement, but all of them turned their attention to Li Huan.
Li Huan took a deep breath, glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "All of you, come with me to meet His Majesty."
Following Li Huan, a group of people quickly walked out of the school grounds, headed by Shi Wenyi and Li Huan, looking into the distance.
At this time, you can already see the faint smoke and dust emerging, needless to say that the emperor's Luanjia is coming soon.
Soon the guard of honor opened the way, with the guards guarding the left and right, and a mighty group of people came to the school grounds. Li Huan and others all came forward to bow down.
"My ministers welcome you, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Houzhao walked out from the Luanjia, looked at Li Huan and the others with a slight smile, and said, "Your Majesty, you are free from courtesy, and you will be flat!"
While speaking, Zhu Houzhao had already walked in front of Li Huan, and stretched out his big hand to help Li Huan up. Such treatment only made Shi Wenyi and others envious.
All along, they only knew that Li Huan was favored by the emperor, but it was the first time they saw him like this, and they felt nothing but envy.
Li Huan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the three thousand guards have lined up and are waiting for your majesty to inspect!"
Zhu Houzhao laughed and said, "Okay, follow me to review the army."
Just looking at the excitement in Zhu Houzhao's eyes, you can know Zhu Houzhao's preference for martial arts. This is known from Li Huan's visit to Zhu Houzhao when he entered the palace, and seeing Zhu Houzhao's playful act of ordering his servants to pretend to be soldiers and rush into the battle.
When Zhu Houzhao, accompanied by Li Huan, Shi Wenyi and others, boarded the general platform and looked down at the three thousand guards who were neatly arranged, he couldn't help but feel infinite pride in his heart. This is my guards. military!
"Soldiers, you have worked hard..."
No one thought that Zhu Houzhao would speak suddenly. After all, it is not uncommon for the emperor to come to the performance in person, but he usually just comes to sit in the town. Few emperors would speak on their own initiative like Zhu Houzhao.
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao's sudden performance made everyone stunned for a moment, not only Shi Wenyi, Li Huan, Gu Dayong, Zhang Yong and others on the stage were stunned, but also the guards and soldiers below. He also looked at Zhu Houzhao who was talking to them on the high platform with an unbelievable gaze.
Zhu Houzhao, who was dressed in a yellow dragon robe, was only eighteen or nineteen years old. He was a young man with a heroic appearance, and his voice was as clear as a young phoenix. Originally, the audience was silent, but when Zhu Houzhao spoke, 3000 people heard the emperor's voice clearly. sound.
"Your Majesty has spoken to us, Your Majesty has spoken to us..."
For an instant, all the guards and soldiers had only one thought in their minds, and then three thousand guards and soldiers bowed down to Zhu Houzhao in unison, shouting: "Die for Your Majesty!"
Three thousand strong and strong men shouted in unison, their voices moved the heavens, and for a moment there was no other sound except the voices of the guards.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the guards who were half kneeling on the ground below and shouted in unison, his face was a little flushed, he took a step forward, stretched out his hand and said: "All generals and soldiers, excuse me!"
At this moment, Li Huan and the others also reacted. Seeing the reaction of all the guards and soldiers as if they had been beaten because of Zhu Houzhao's sudden opening, they couldn't help looking at Zhu Houzhao worriedly, for fear that Zhu Houzhao would cause some trouble.
You must know that if Zhu Houzhao said something exciting, no one can guarantee the reaction of the 3000 people below. If something goes wrong later, none of them will suffer.
Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao didn't do anything after satisfying his addiction to patrolling the army, but gave up his position to Li Huan.
Li Huan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the crowd below, and said solemnly: "All soldiers, the martial arts performance has officially begun!"
Following Li Huan's order, and under the restraint and guidance of grassroots officials in the bodyguards, Zhao Yi and Chen Ke, two thousands of household officials, personally sat in charge, and 3000 people began to perform on the huge school grounds.
Although performing this kind of thing can't measure the combat power of a soldier and horse, if you can't even do the shelf work well, then this team of troops will probably not be very strong.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the martial arts below with great interest. It seemed that he couldn't help nodding his head with a smile on his face when he saw a team performing well. Of course, if he saw a team performing poorly, Zhu Houzhao would also Can't help but frown.
A full hour passed, and when the three thousand guards gathered under the general's platform again, although they were no longer as energetic as before, the guards did not show signs of sluggishness. If you look at it, if you don't mention anything else, at least this energy is quite sufficient.
Li Huan watched the three thousand guards stand upright, turned to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, the martial arts performance is over."
Zhu Houzhao's face was full of smiles, he looked at Li Huan and said, "The Qing family is bothering you. The three thousand guards will be ready. The Qing family should remember the first merit. What do you want me to reward you for?"
Li Huan said seriously: "Returning to your majesty, this is just the duty of the minister. Your majesty rewards the minister for this, but the minister is ashamed to accept it."
Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly and said: "Forget it, since that's the case, I will make a note for the time being, and I will reward you when Riqing makes new achievements in the future."
However, Li Huan's rejection of the emperor's reward does not mean that Li Huan did not ask for credit for Zhao Yi, Chen Ke and others, and Zhu Houzhao also offered rewards to Zhao Yi, Chen Ke and others recommended by Li Huan.
As soon as the emperor Jinkou opened, he directly appointed Zhao Yi and Chen Ke as the commanders of Jinyiwei, and rewarded him with gold, silver, jade and silk.
Chen Ke, Zhao Yi and the others were very grateful. After paying homage to the Son of Heaven, they felt even more grateful to Li Huan. As for Shi Wenyi, the commander of Jin Yiwei, who watched this scene from the side, his heart was filled with emotion.
If he had had the guts of Li Huan back then, and accepted the emperor's edict to reorganize the guards, maybe he should be the one who is valued by the emperor now.
However, Shi Wenyi also knew in his heart that even though he envied Li Huan the favor he received now, even if he was given another chance to choose, he would still make the same choice and offend civil servants and officials. It's dangerous, maybe he will be labeled as a treason at some point, and his family will be wiped out.
After the school field drill, Zhu Houzhao really immediately ordered Li Huan's group to select elites from among the [-] bodyguards to form palace guards and emperor guards of honor to replace the previous guards and guards of honor.
Of the two, one is responsible for the guards of the imperial city, and the other is responsible for the ceremonial guards and safety of the emperor's travel.
In order to select candidates who have no problems, Li Huan, Chen Ke, Zhao Yi and others even used the power of the Jinyiwei system to sort out and investigate the selected personnel over and over again, and finally determined the candidates.
It took less than half a month for Li Huan to replace the guards of the imperial city and the guard of honor of the emperor after he finished his work.
However, Cai Changgui, the treasurer of Zuiyuelou, knocked on Sun Xiang's door with an excited expression on his face.
With a creak, the door opened and stood tall. Sun Xiang, who was wearing a green shirt, looked at Cai Changgui who was beaming with joy, and said in his heart, "Master Cai, is there some happy event?"
Shopkeeper Cai smiled, and handed a piece of paper to Sun Xiang with some joy: "Mr. Sun, just look, this is all the news about that person, but I have recorded all the information I can collect on it." gone."
Sun Xiang's eyes lit up, he reached out and took the piece of paper, and looked at the densely packed records on the paper.
Li Huan, a native of Changle County, Fuzhou Prefecture, Fujian Province, entered Beijing in the first year of Zhengde...
I have to say that shopkeeper Cai's intelligence gathering ability is quite good. The information about Li Huan recorded on it is extremely detailed, and after Sun Xiang read it, his face was full of surprise.
After a while Sun Xiang said with emotion on his face: "Li Huan, what a Li Huan, he has such luck, but such a lucky minister of the emperor usually has only two final results, either he was abandoned by the emperor and died a terrible death, or he died for the sake of Protected by the Son of Heaven, he will rise to the top and be extremely honored and favored."
Speaking of which, Sun Xiang couldn't help frowning slightly and muttered softly: "It's strange, Li Huan, why does the name Li Huan sound familiar, where did I hear it?"
As one of Cai Wen's few confidantes, Sun Xiang has always been entrusted with important tasks by Cai Wen. There are few things Cai Wen wants to do that he doesn't know.
Normally speaking, Sun Xiang would definitely know that Cai Wen sought the position of the hereditary official of the Li family of Langqi Islet for the sake of maritime interests.
But compared to Cai Wen's huge power and too many affairs to be dealt with, it is not very important to seek Langqi Islet, and it is not surprising that Sun Xiang didn't know about it.
Of course, the main reason why Sun Xiang didn't know about Li Huan was that Sun Xiang was under Cai Wen's command and was mainly responsible for helping Cai Wen maintain his connections in the capital. It can be said that he was on the way between Fujian and the capital all year round.
Sun Xiang felt that the familiarity of Li Huan's name was not because he really knew about Cai Wen's pursuit of Langqi Island, but because he had entered Beijing a few days ago and heard people talking about Li Huan, which made him feel familiar.
Therefore, although Sun Xiang and Cai Changgui, who are in charge of the dynamics of the capital, say that they have a high status under Cai Wen's command, they really don't know about the people under Cai Wen's command to seek Langqi Island.
Cai Changgui looked at Sun Xiang and said, "Mr. Sun, what do you think of us following Li Huan's path? Could you borrow his hand to go to heaven and let your lord be transferred to the capital."
Sun Xiang narrowed his eyes and muttered slightly: "This person is His Majesty's lucky minister today, and he has won the favor of the Son of Heaven. If he can really say a few words for His Majesty in front of His Majesty, it is naturally not a problem to transfer Your Majesty to Beijing. But……"
Speaking of which, Sun Xiang frowned, looking at the information about Li Huan on the paper.
Cai Changgui couldn't help but anxiously said: "Mr. Sun, you said it, but how?"
Sun Xiang glanced at Cai Changgui and said: "But we don't know what he likes at all. It's the so-called doing what he likes and moving his heart, so it's easy to ask for help, isn't it?"
Cai Changgui was stunned for a moment, and said immediately: "It doesn't matter what he likes or not, if you want me to say, everyone in this world has only one hobby, and that is to love money and love money!"
Seeing Cai Changgui's resolute appearance, Sun Xiang couldn't help being silent for a while, although Cai Changgui's words were a bit absolute, but it was an undeniable truth in the world.
People in the world love money. If there are people who do not love money, there must be, but they are definitely very few, not one in a million.
Looking at Cai Changgui, Sun Xiang frowned and said, "What do you mean!"
Cai Changgui laughed and said: "Then Li Huan is young and suddenly won the favor of the emperor, so he must not have much experience. You said at this time, if we throw a large amount of gold and silver at him, will he be able to bear it? "
Sun Xiang was stunned, looked at Cai Changgui with a strange expression, and then sighed: "You are right, this is feasible."
Cai Changgui was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Since Mr. thinks this is feasible, why don't we first understand Mr. Bing, and then bribe Li Huan..."
Sun Xiang shook his head confidently and said, "I will write a secret letter myself to inform you about this matter in detail."
As he spoke, he took a look at Cai Changgui, and Sun Xiang said: "I have the right to specialize. My lord once said that the capital is far away from Fujian, and it is inconvenient to transmit information. Once some opportunities are missed, they will never come back. So tell me, Beijing Everything in it is up to me to decide, so as not to delay the opportunity, I just need to explain to him afterwards."
Cai Changgui nodded and said: "Your Excellency regards you as your shoulder, and entrusts you with all matters in Beijing. No matter what you do or make decisions, Cai will definitely cooperate with all your strength."
Sun Xiang was very satisfied with Cai Changgui's attitude. Although Cai Changgui was a member of the Cai Wen clan, could it be that Cai Changgui kept his duty and knew how to advance and retreat? No wonder he was able to stay in the capital for so many years and control the eyes and ears of the capital for Cai Wen.
Stroking his beard, Sun Xiang said: "My lord ordered me to go to Beijing this time, and I brought 20 taels of gold and silver again. It was originally for the purpose of clearing up the relationship. I asked Xie Qian to help me transfer my lord to Beijing for use as soon as possible. Now it seems that these gold and silver are used in Li Huan is perfect for it."
Cai Changgui was slightly surprised: "Do you want to give all the gold and silver to Li Huan?"
Sun Xiang's eyes flickered brightly and said: "Since you want to bribe Li Huan, you should spend all your gold and silver on it. I don't believe that Li Huan is not interested in 20 taels of gold and silver. As long as your lord can be transferred to the capital, sit What is a mere 10 taels of gold and silver for the last hall official?"
While talking, Sun Xiang said again: "As for the purpose of the money, I will also inform the adults. I believe that the adults will definitely agree with it if they know about it."
Cai Changgui nodded and said: "Your Excellency has always been very courageous. If giving Li Huan 20 taels of gold and silver can help him ascend to the position of a ministry, Your Excellency will definitely do it without hesitation."
The more Sun Xiang thought about it, the more excited he became, and he said to Cai Changgui without wanting to wait for a moment: "Cai Changgui, go and prepare a generous gift. Today I will visit Li Huan, the lucky minister of the emperor, and pave the way for my lord to reach heaven!"
Cai Changgui left in response.
In a dense forest a few miles away from the capital, a dozen strong and strong men were resting in the forest.
I heard one of them say to the leader with a scarred face: "Brother, we have been guarding here for three or four days, and we haven't seen Cheng Yi's ghost. Do you think it's Du Lao Ertian and theirs?" Bian already succeeded?"
The scar-faced man glared at his brother and said: "Stop talking nonsense, our task is to guard outside the capital, if Du Er Er and the others can take down Cheng Yi, that would be great, if Du Er Er and others are useless, At that time, we still have to come to the bottom."
The man couldn't help but chuckled and said: "It's said that the capital is prosperous, and even the women in the capital have a different taste. After we finish the task, you might as well take the brothers to play, so that we brothers... "
Mentioning this point, the rest of the listless men suddenly shook their spirits, and looked at the scar-faced man with bloodshot eyes.
The scar-faced man frowned, and snorted coldly: "Okay, as long as the task is completed, isn't it just to find a few girls from the capital? Then you won't get out of bed for three days, and I don't bother to pay attention to you..."
As he spoke, the scar-faced man ordered everyone to keep an eye on the sentry post, while he straightened his body, climbed up a big tree, and looked towards the direction of the capital from a distance.
As one of the pirate bosses under Cai Wen's subordinates, the scar-faced man can be sent to cover the bottom line, so it goes without saying that he is also one of Cai Wen's confidantes.
At this moment, the scar-faced man was listening to the group of subordinates below excitedly discussing what the girls in the brothel in the capital would be like, but his mind was drifting towards the capital.
The people under him didn't know, but he knew that his lord had arranged a foothold in the capital, and he thought in his heart that after completing the task, he could go to that foothold to have a look.
On this day, Li Huan got off the Yamen and strolled home, followed by a small banner of Jinyiwei.
Not long after Li Huan entered the courtyard, before he washed his face, he heard a scolding from outside: "Who are you waiting for?"
Li Huan has good ears and eyesight, although the voice of Captain Jin Yiwei who was patrolling outside the courtyard was not too loud, but Li Huan could hear him clearly.
Sun Xiang got off from a carriage, bowed his hands to the captain of Jinyiwei who stopped him, and at the same time stuffed a piece of scattered silver into the opponent's hand without a trace, and said: "My next Sun Xiang, from Fujian, is Mr. Li Huan I am from my hometown, and I am here to visit Master Li Huan."
The captain felt the heavy silver stuffed into his hand, smiled slightly and said: "So that's the case, you wait here for a while, I will report to you."
As he said that, the captain reminded: "Don't go forward again, otherwise, even if you are taken, you have nothing to say."
Li Huan heard a knock on the door, and a young eunuch opened the door. The school captain strode in and saw that Li Huan first offered him the money Sun Xiang gave him: "My lord, some people outside say that he is from the same village as your lord." , I want to ask to see you, this is the money he gave..."
Li Huan smiled slightly and said, "Just share the money with your brothers. Go and bring that man to me."
Li Huan has no opinion on the matter of his subordinates taking money from others, as long as he is not blackmailing the other party, he is happy to see the result.
Of course, the premise is that these subordinates have to know what money can be taken and what money cannot be taken. For this reason, he has killed several Jinyiwei who leaked his whereabouts for money. This is the rule, so he can be selected to follow him Beside him, Jin Yiwei, who was in charge of his personal safety, knew Li Huan's rules better than anyone else.
Soon Sun Xiang was brought into the yard. When Sun Xiang saw Li Huan, he just glanced at him, and his heart was full of shock.
Although I knew that Li Huan was young, but after seeing Li Huan, I found out that Li Huan was frighteningly young. He was only a senior official of the third rank at the age of eighteen. Think about Cai Wen, who worked hard in the officialdom for more than ten years. It's just an official of the third rank.
It can be said that Li Huan directly surpassed [-]% of the officials in this world.
While feeling emotional in his heart, Sun Xiang bowed respectfully to Li Huan and said, "Sun Xiang, a scholar from Jianning Prefecture in Fujian Province, pays his respects to Your Excellency."
Li Huan frowned, and when Sun Xiang looked at him, Li Huan had already recognized Sun Xianglai, who was the same group he had met in Zuiyue Tower.
Li Huan recognized Sun Xiang and couldn't help sighing secretly that the world is really small, and it was considered a one-sided relationship at the beginning, but he never thought that today the other party would come to see him in person.
With his expression unchanged, Li Huan looked at Sun Xiang with a slight smile and said, "Oh, I never thought that you are from Fujian. I don't know why Sun Xiucai came to see Li."
Sun Xiang looked left and right, Li Huan waved his hands, and the captain of Jinyiwei and the young eunuch who served him stepped back.
Sun Xiang then said: "Can my lord allow the box on the carriage to be carried in?"
Li Huan nodded at Cao Yu who was guarding not far away and said, "Cao Yu, go for a walk."
Cao Yu responded and walked out of the courtyard. Soon after, Cao Yu with a look of astonishment came in, followed by four captains of Jin Yiwei, carrying a large box with great difficulty.
Just looking at the strenuous looks of the four Jinyiwei captains, one can tell that the contents of the box must be very heavy.
Li Huan couldn't help feeling a little curious, seeing Sun Xiang's mysterious appearance, what was in this box?
Sun Xiang took a step forward, stretched out his hand to open the box, and suddenly the brilliance of gold, silver and jewelry flashed.
However, Li Huan was only slightly taken aback when he saw this situation, and it's not like he hasn't seen gold and silver things before.
It is not uncommon for him to have seen 10 taels of gold and silver when the Fang clan was wiped out. The box of gold, silver and jewelry in front of him is probably only worth a few tens of thousands of taels in total, and it won't make him lose his temper.
Sun Xiang, who had been paying attention to the changes in Li Huan's expression, naturally saw Li Huan's expression in his eyes, and couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart that Li Huan was able to be so calm and unaffected by so many gold and silver jewels, and to be favored by the emperor , it is not a fluke.
At the same time, Sun Xiang also secretly rejoiced that he took a gamble and didn't just send these gold and silver jewels, otherwise, depending on Li Huan's reaction, he might not be able to impress the other party to speak for his lord.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Sun Xiang moved forward, took a simple wooden box in his hand, and then opened it under Li Huan's watchful eyes, and saw a stack of beautifully crafted bank notes floating in front of Li Huan .
Sun Xiang said with a smile on his face: "Master Li, this is a bank note of 15 taels from Sitong Bank. You can exchange it for silver with this bank note. You can exchange it for gold and silver at any time."
Now even Li Huan couldn't help but be a little surprised, the other party was really generous, the 15 taels of silver notes, plus the box of gold, silver and jewelry, probably added up to a huge 20 taels.
So much wealth, to be honest, is definitely the only thing Li Huan has seen in his life.
When I first met Sun Xiang and others, I just guessed that the other party should be someone sent by a high-ranking official in Fujian to the capital to try to follow Xie Qian's career.
After settling his mind, Li Huan looked at Sun Xiang seriously and said, "What do you mean?"
Sun Xiang smiled slightly, straightened his clothes, bowed to Li Huan, and said, "I beg Mr. Li to say a few words for my Dong Weng. No matter what the result is, these gold and silver things are considered my Dong Weng's heart. .”
Li Huan just looked at Sun Xiang like that, and didn't speak for a long time.
After a while, just when Sun Xiang couldn't help but feel a little nervous and worried, Li Huan suddenly laughed, and helped Sun Xiang who bowed his waist and said: "What did Mr. Sun say? Who is sacred, how can I help Li?"
Seeing that Li Huan called him Mr. with such enthusiasm, Sun Xiang's heart suddenly fell. It seems that Cai Changgui was right. There is no one in the world who does not love money. If you say it, it is money. Not enough.
Didn't see this young man succeeds, Li Huan, who is in the heart of the emperor, is not moved by the 20 taels of wealth.
Sun Xiang, who was more confident, walked into the living room with Li Huan, sat down, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "So that Mr. Li will know that my Dong Weng is Mr. Cai Wencai, Fujian's procurator for punishment. It can be said that Dong Weng has devoted himself to governing the judiciary of a province, and now he wants to go to Beijing to serve the emperor in front of the emperor, so Dong Weng Zhiyuan, please be able to serve as the emperor, if he succeeds, he will be rewarded heavily in the future."
Li Huan's heart tightened, obviously he didn't expect that the other party was a third-rank senior official in charge of a province's judiciary, but just looking at the other party's gamble of 10 taels of wealth, Li Huan knew that the other party's fear was not good official.
It's not that good officials are good. If the other party is a good official, who would take the initiative to send such a huge amount of wealth to the door.
Thoughts turned in his heart, Li Huan's face was filled with a smile, he pondered for a while, and under Sun Xiang's expectant eyes, he nodded quite reservedly and said: "Leave your master's name card, and I will help you speak up for your majesty." , but Li can't guarantee what the final result will be."
Sun Xiang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and couldn't hide the excitement on his face. While taking out the name card from his cuff, he bowed to Li Huan and said, "I'll leave everything to Mr. Li."
Watching the excited Sun Xiang leave, a crisp and sweet voice said: "My lord, that is a property worth 20 taels. If you really want to accept it, if..."
Li Huan was the only one who could talk to Li Huan like this, Li Huan regarded Lian Qiao as a family member, seeing Lian Qiao's worried face, Li Huan couldn't help laughing and said: "Why, are you worried about your son? "
Lian Qiao coquettishly said: "Young master, if people find out about this, under impeachment, His Majesty will not punish you for committing corruption and perverting the law."
Li Huan smiled, walked to the open box, glanced at it, his eyes lit up, he reached into it, and saw a necklace made of milky white pearls, which was really eye-catching, round and full, warm in the hand, It is definitely a high-quality product among the high-quality products, and the value of this string is probably thousands of taels.
"ah!"
Seeing the string of pearls in Li Huan's hand, Forsythia couldn't help but her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help making a coquettish cry.
Li Huan pulled the forsythia over, and in the astonishment of the forsythia, put the string of necklaces between the necks of the forsythia. gas.
"That's right, here's your reward!"
Lian Qiao shook her head in shock, while trying to take off the necklace, she said: "No, no, this thing is something a servant can bear."
Li Huan pressed Lianqiao's hand, and Lianqiao's body froze immediately, as if her acupuncture points had been tapped, her pink and pretty face was filled with red clouds, and her breathing became a little short.
Even Li Huan was a little dazed, he never thought that he just wanted to stop Lian Qiao from taking off the necklace, but this turned out to be the case.
"Bah..."
Accompanied by an exclamation, Lian Qiao's body went limp, then she staggered, glared at Li Huan in embarrassment and annoyance, turned around and ran away, without mentioning anything about the pearl necklace.
At this moment, Li Huan looked at the beautiful figure of Lianqiao running into the room, and looked at his big hand that fell in the air, and couldn't help but have some aftertaste.
The air was still filled with the faint daughter fragrance of Forsythia, but at this moment Li Huan had come to his senses, and said to Cao Yu who was huddled in the distance and lowered his head: "Cao Yu, come here."
Seeing Cao Yu's body swaying, he came to the front in a few breaths, bowed and said, "My lord, what are your orders?"
Li Huan smiled slightly, and threw the wooden box containing 15 taels of silver bills to Cao Yudao: "Go, find Ma Ming, and ask him to bring a team of people to the Stone Bank for me to bring back the silver. "
Cao Yu naturally didn't discount Li Huan's order, he nodded immediately and said, "I will go find Ma Baihu."
As the night gradually fell, there were three large carriages with several heavy boxes on them, which creaked and left an obvious rut on the ground, and slowly drove into the alley.
Ma Ming walked into the courtyard solemnly, just in time to see Li Huan teaching a group of young eunuchs to practice swordsmanship there.
Although the swordsmanship looks quite exquisite, in Ma Ming's view, it's just that. When it comes to fighting, the swordsmanship practiced by these little eunuchs may not be so powerful.
Walking closer, Ma Ming said respectfully: "My lord, this subordinate has been ordered to take the things back."
When he said this, Ma Ming's heart beat a little faster, and he couldn't help being nervous and excited. It was a full 15 taels of cash, and there were several big white boxes, and everyone who watched it jumped.
Fortunately, the Jinyiwei who went with him were all carefully selected and trustworthy people, otherwise, Ma Ming was really worried that the money would touch people's hearts, and some people couldn't help but think about those money.
Pulling out so much cash from the bank at one time can't be concealed even if you want to hide it, unless you exchange it bit by bit by yourself, but there is no guarantee that you won't be targeted if you go to the bank to exchange it alone. If you are targeted, the trouble will be even greater.
So the best way is to choose the most reliable person like now, and bring them back at one time. Even if someone with a heart meets and finds that the person who took the money is a member of Jinyiwei, no one will dare to have any thoughts.
Li Huan glanced at Ma Ming, nodded slightly and said: "Drive the carriage into the next yard, and ask your men to keep an eye on me, and follow me into the palace tomorrow."
Ma Ming was taken aback when he heard the words, and then realized, his eyes lit up and he subconsciously said: "My lord, you want to take those things..."
Li Huan glanced at Ma Ming indifferently, Ma Ming reacted immediately, stood with his hands down and said, "This subordinate is talking too much, I'll just go and look at those things, even if I can't sleep a night, I won't let those things go away." The subordinate's line of sight."
