Chapter 1682 Ren Zijuan is surging (3)

Feng Ziying felt relieved. He had been observing the other party before.

With such a big thing happening, he wouldn't believe it if there wasn't someone in the palace who was the mastermind behind the incident.

The Shangsanqinjun were the Imperial Guards personally led by the emperor. Miao Zhuang, the commander of the Banner Guards, Du Keli, the commander of the Four Guards Battalion, and Liao Junxiong, the commander of the Warrior Battalion, were all confidants appointed by Emperor Yonglong. They were the three major battalions of the Jingying Camp. The loyalty of the generals should be higher, because they are directly related to Emperor Yonglong's own safety.

Moreover, unlike the Beijing Camp, the Shangsanqin Army experienced a major shock. Except for the Shenshu Camp, the Fifth Military Camp and the Shenji Camp were all newly reorganized. The Shangsanqinjun has always maintained stability, and its loyalty should be the most secure. of.

 But even so, Feng Ziying did not dare to believe it easily.

They were loyal to Emperor Yonglong. That was when Emperor Yonglong was still there. Emperor Yonglong is now in a coma. It is unclear whether he can wake up, so it is hard to say.

Emperor Yonglong fell from his horse and fell into a coma after being assassinated. It is easy to imagine who could do such a treacherous thing behind this, and it can only be those who can benefit from it.

And it would be impossible to do such a thing without extremely strong support. Who are these people who are planning and supporting it?

There is no doubt that the closest relatives of Emperor Yonglong and those who hold certain real power are the biggest suspects. The commander of the Shangsanqin Army is among them, so Feng Ziying cannot trust anyone, including this Du Keli.

 But judging from the current situation of Du Keli, Feng Ziying feels that this person should be trustworthy and unlikely.

Although the adoption of martial law measures seems a bit suspicious, and seems to be suspected of providing an advantage to the conspiracy planners, it is even more unreasonable if the commander of the Fourth Guards Battalion did nothing for such a big thing, so such a move can be justified. .

And according to Feng Ziying's observation, this guy is probably really frightened. If he is really a participant, even if he can pretend to be frightened, he should not be able to pretend to be so, and he should not be fooled by his simple words. Just be scared and let yourself go.

 After ruling out the possibility of Du Keli, Feng Ziying was convinced and was also considering how to use this person.

The Shangsanqin Army is very important. Now, in addition to the Shenshu Camp, there is the Shangsanqin Army inside. Although their strength is not as strong as the Shenshu Camp, they are the emperor's forbidden army and their status is respected. Under the suspicious circumstances of the Shenshu Camp, this force It's even more important.

"Mr. Du, how many people are stationed here in your Fourth Guard Battalion now?" Feng Ziying asked as he walked, which could be regarded as easing the other party's nervous and anxious mood.

"There are more than 1,200 people. Our three pro-army troops each led more than 1,200 people to protect the emperor. There are 5,000 people in the Shenshu Camp outside." Du Keli blurted out, "I still don't understand how there are The assassin sneaked into the hunting garden. The Shenshu battalion had arrived at the hunting garden a few days in advance and conducted two inspections. We also conducted two inspections after we arrived. Before today's hunting, we conducted another preliminary inspection... "

“Isn’t today’s inspection just a formality?” Feng Ziying asked lightly.

Du Keli was stunned and said hesitantly: "Sir Mingjian, of course it is impossible to be as careful as before coming here, but it is said that there are as many as ten assassins. No matter how careless it is, it is impossible to miss so many people. How did these people infiltrate? Where to hide? If there is no internal response, it is absolutely impossible. This is why we can only adopt martial law and cut off communication."

Du Keli's words are reasonable. The assassins carried out the assassination, and there were more than ten assassins. In the encirclement of three levels inside and three outside, more than ten people were like being in a deserted land. If there was no internal response, it would be unthinkable. .

In Du Keli's view, the biggest suspicion must be that something went wrong with the Shenshu Camp, which is responsible for peripheral security and early inspection.

Even Feng Ziying felt that if more than a dozen assassins sneaked into the Hunting Garden without being discovered, and the Shenshu Battalion of more than 5,000 people stationed on the periphery was not discovered, then there is absolutely an unshirkable responsibility.

As for whether there is any problem with the enemy of the leader of the Shenshu camp, that is a matter of debate.

But Qiu Shiben's daughter married the son of Su Shengdu, the deputy commander-in-chief of Shanxi Town, and Su Shengdu was the cousin of Lu Fei Su Lingyao. This kind of marriage relationship made people suspicious.

I'm afraid that Emperor Yonglong asked Qian Guozhong to serve as the chief general of the Shenji Camp, and asked King Zhonghui to take over as the Jiedu Envoy of the Beijing Camp and the General of the Fifth Military Camp. These factors all contributed to this.

“Master Du, where is Master Qiu now?” Feng Ziying asked casually.

"It is said that the traces of the escape of these assassins were discovered from the west. He personally supervised the formation and sent people to cooperate with Long Jinwei's people to track down." Du Keli shook his head contemptuously: "Maybe it is just the thief shouting to catch the thief, and he is acting for everyone to see. .”

Feng Ziying has long been accustomed to the discord and mutual criticism between the Forbidden Army and the Beijing Camp. The Fifth Army Camp, Shenshu Camp, and Shenji Camp within the Beijing Camp are also experiencing constant troubles, and the Shangsanqin Army is also at odds with each other. And, maybe this is also an internal conflict specially created by Emperor Yonglong, so as to prevent any one family from becoming dominant and becoming monolithic.

 The group of people walked as they talked until they came to the gate of the inner palace.

The flag-hand guard was responsible for guarding the gate of the inner palace, and the commander of the flag-hand guard, Miao Zhuang, had already been guarding the door.

Seeing that Du Keli actually accompanied Feng Ziying to see King Zhonghui, Miao Zhuang's expression was a little complicated.

I thought I was a smart person, but I didn’t expect that Du Keli was not stupid either, and even got Feng Ziying into his trap.

"Mr. Miao is here too?" Feng Ziying and Miao Zhuang should be familiar with each other, because the several times he entered the palace, he was guarded by the standard guard. He met Miao Zhuang twice. Although he didn't interact with each other, he exchanged greetings with him, like Du Keli Instead, it was just a nod.

"Master Feng, how can we sit down if something like this happens? Please come in quickly. The prince is already waiting impatiently." Miao Zhuang sighed, "Old Liao will be here soon."

There was a layer of white sweat on Du Keli's back. It seemed that he was the last to realize it, and even the stupidest one. Both Miao Zhuang and Liao Junxiong already knew that if they wanted to escape guilt, they must hold on to King Zhonghui. His legs were thick, but no one informed him. It was just Miao Zhuang. They were already at odds with each other, but Liao Junxiong was actually so cold-blooded.

Suddenly, the idle prince, who had been almost a polished commander before, suddenly became a favorite. This made King Zhonghui feel mixed emotions, but not much joy, but more pressure and anxiety.

It wasn't until he saw Feng Ziying walking in that King Zhonghui showed a happy look on his face and hurriedly came forward to greet him, "Ziying, you're here. If you hadn't sent the seal, I wouldn't have known you were still here." In the palace, don’t you remember that the emperor saw you three days ago?"

"The emperor has met, but he asked me to stay and have an interview. I am too lazy to go back and forth, so I just said that I would just stay here for two days. Who would have thought..." Feng Ziying waved her hand, "Your Highness , what is the situation? After all, I am also the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, and this is also the territory of Shuntian Prefecture. If something like this happens, I am also responsible. "

It’s just a sentence to say that the responsibility is unavoidable. Even if there is responsibility, it must be traced to Shuntian Mansion. I don’t know how many people are waiting in front of me. At least the three people in front of me are much bigger than Shuntian Mansion. Besides, Shuntian Mansion also has Isn’t it Fu Yin?

Miao Zhuang and Du Keli both experienced it personally, so there was no need for King Zhonghui to hide it.

This time the two people took the initiative to move closer to him. King Zhonghui knew that he had to rely on these two people when he had no one available. Not to mention Feng Ziying, he had to rely on him in the first place. Let’s help you analyze the situation.

  King Zhonghui briefly introduced the situation, and Feng Ziying finally understood the situation.

"The emperor is still awake. What did the accompanying imperial doctor say? There must be a reason, right? Did he hurt his head or was it for other reasons?" Feng Ziying directly asked the key: "Since the emperor is not in fear of his life for the time being, then what? When will you wake up?"

"Now the two imperial doctors have different opinions. One thinks that the emperor's head was hit when he fell from the horse, and the congestion and blockage may have caused coma, while the other thinks that the emperor took too much pills and took them inappropriately. The use of Tiger Wolf medicine to purge fire and dispel dryness leads to excessive qi deficiency, imbalance of yin and yang in the body, causing qi and blood confusion, leading to coma..."

King Zhonghui also gritted his teeth, "But both of them said that although the emperor is not in fear of his life, they are not sure when he will wake up..."

 “What I’m not sure about is...” Feng Ziying asked closely.

“Even if it’s hard to say, it’s possible that I’ll wake up tonight. Maybe I won’t wake up for three to five days or even ten days and a half. They don’t dare to make a conclusion.” King Zhonghui sighed sadly.

 We discussed it for a while, and until Liao Junxiong, the commander of the Warrior Battalion, arrived to join us, we didn’t have much of a clue. Now everyone felt like the sky was falling. Before the cabinet ministers arrived, everyone didn’t know what to do.

Waiting until Du Keli, Liao Junxiong and Miao Zhuang left, leaving only Feng Ziying and King Zhonghui, King Zhonghui couldn't wait to hold Feng Ziying's hand and said: "Ziying, what should I do now? Brother Jiu and the others are temporarily imprisoned, but Gu feels that the possibility of Brother Jiu’s involvement is very small. There is no one trustworthy around Gu, and there is no one who can provide advice to Gu. It all depends on you."

King Zhonghui was really blind. If he had known that he would be involved in such a turmoil so suddenly, it would be better to be a rich and idle man. He had no intention of taking a chance, even if it was a little opportunity to prepare for the next He had the idea of ​​​​earning some connections, but if he had to take such a big risk in exchange, he would never do it.

But now he is riding a tiger, and the title of Jingying Jieduzhao can kill him, especially when he can't control the group of people under his command. Everything they do, he may eventually have to take the blame. .
