In less than a quarter of an hour, the alley that was still raging just now returned to peace, as usual.
Kou Ji looked at the man in black unexpectedly.
He didn't know the man in black, his identity, or his origin, let alone why the man in black wanted to protect him.
At the same time, he was also full of consternation. What kind of identity was the man in black? He actually dared to blatantly kill people in Bianjing, and it was the generals who killed them.
More importantly, the man in black killed the man in charge. The little fat man said nothing, and the man with him ran away, as if he was afraid of the man in black.
Out of courtesy, Kou Ji bowed his hand to the man in black and said, "Thank you, the righteous man, for your help. I don't know the name of the righteous man
The man in black glanced at Kou Ji, ignored him, and disappeared before Kou Ji's eyes.
Kou Ji stood there in a daze, watching the man in black disappear with a stunned expression on his face.
Immediately, he shook his head, secretly guessing the identity of the man in black, and walked to the secret door of the Kou Mansion.
Kou Ji banged on the secret door, and the secret door was opened from the inside.
An old face of Kou Zhong appeared in front of Kou Ji.
"Little Master, are you back?"
"Yeah~"
Kou Ji agreed and stepped into the secret door.
After Kou Ji entered the secret door, Kou Zhong stuck his head out, looked around, and after confirming that no one was following Kou Ji, he closed the secret door.
Kou Ji guessed the identity of the man in black, and asked Kou Zhong casually.
"Kou Zhong, is there a person in Bianjing who uses a soft sword to kill people when he shoots. He has a cold temper. Moreover, if he kills the man who controls the door, the door will not embarrass him?"
Hearing this, Kou Zhong was taken aback for a while, looked at Kou Ji with a weird look, and whispered: "Is there such a person... Young Master, did you see it?"
Kou Ji did not answer his question, but unexpectedly asked: "Do you know this person?"
Kou Zhong nodded, "This person is from our house, how could the old servant not know."
Kou Ji was even more surprised, "There are still these people in the house?"
Kou Zhong nodded and said: "There are, but it is difficult for ordinary people to see. He usually protects the master and rarely goes out. Where did you see him?"
Kou Ji suddenly said: "It turns out to be my grandfather's guard, no wonder the martial arts is superb. Like Yuyou, he is also a master of equipment supervisor?"
Kou Zhong shook his head, nodded again, and said, "Yes or not..."
Seeing Kou Ji's doubts on his face, he explained: "He is in the position of the equipment supervisor, and he also leads the salary of the equipment supervisor, but he is not the person of the equipment supervisor. He is only loyal to the master and only listens to the master's instructions."
Kou Ji chuckled his mouth and said: "There are such people in the mansion, I actually only know now."
Kou Zhong looked at Kou Ji up and down, as if he had thought of something, and said in astonishment: "Master sent him to you?"
Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully, "Should..."
Kou Zhong took a deep look at Kou Ji, and said with emotion: "It seems that the master really values you. With him by your side, you will surely be considerate."
Kou Ji nodded and smiled: "It's also about..."
After a pause, Kou Ji suddenly asked: "By the way, why are the people at the gate afraid of him. It seems that they don't want to face him."
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly: "It has something to do with his temperament."
"Oh?"
"He is naturally dull and doesn't know how to work around. He only knows to protect the master. Anyone who is close to the master, as long as he has the intention of murdering the master, regardless of his identity, he will kill him without hesitation.
He has high martial arts, and there are only a handful of people who can beat him.
Therefore, people in Bianjing who knew him were not willing to provoke him. "
After a pause, Kou Zhong said again: "In this Bianjing city, if you provoke an official, you may not die. But if you provoke him, you may not be able to live."
Kou Ji stunned: "Just because he didn't hesitate to make a shot, anyone would dare to kill?"
Kou Zhong nodded, "As long as the other party has the intention of hurting the master, he will never keep his hand, no matter who it is."
Kou Ji clicked his mouth and said with emotion: "I like his temper..."
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and shook his head.
The two left the secret door of Kou Mansion.
Kou Ji went to Kou Zhun's bedroom, took care of Kou Zhun for a while, and then returned to his Sijunyuan to stay.
Although he has reached an agreement with the Eighth Prince Zhao Yuanyan, now is not the best time for him to do it.
Qin Tianjian gave Taibai Jingtian's verdict, and it will take some time to ferment.
Although this verdict has been hooked up with Liu E, her position remains unbreakable before Zhao Heng has the idea of Qingjun's side.
She will not worry about it.
Don't worry, you can't go wrong.
If you don't make a mistake, you will most likely see Kou Ji's true intentions.
Once she sees through Kou Ji's true intentions, it is very likely that Kou Ji's plan will fall through her intervention.
So Kou Ji has to wait until the time is right.
Of course, Kou Ji returned to the Garden of the Four Kings and was not idle.
He also had to put people in for the six parts, so naturally he had to choose some suitable people.
He not only wanted to insert his own people in Liubu, but also Kou Zhun's people.
His people are still very immature now, and people who need Kou Zhun to support him in front, help him to support the newcomer.
Among the six ministries, Kou Ji's most optimistic are the official ministries, criminal ministries, household ministries and military ministries.
Although he told Zhao Yuanyan that he wanted to divide six parts with him, he wanted more than three parts.
What he really wants is four.
In order to prevent Zhao Yuanyan's partner from resentment, he must make certain plans in terms of manpower arrangements.
After Kou Ji's careful calculations, he decided to put all his own staff in the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War.
As for the staff, he planned to go to the town himself.
As for who to assign to that department, he still has to carefully scrutinize it.
The relationship between officials in the court is complicated. There are many personal grievances, and many others dislike each other.
Arranging these people together can easily cause trouble.
The fundamental purpose of his helping Liu Bu to grab power was to deal with Liu E.
He didn't want to see his people pinching each other before he dealt with Liu E.
Kou Ji's calculation is three days.
Three days.
The outside has completely messed up.
The verdict of the'female lord Chang' given by the Qin Tianjian is already well known in Bianjing.
Rumors spread all at once, and every rumor was directed at Liu E.
Directly pointing to Liu E will harm the country and the people.
Among them, there are rumors spread by Kou Zhun, Li Di and others, and there are also some people who have different ideas to contribute to the flames, and more people still follow blindly.
As the voice of the people in Bianjing became louder, the sound of the wind inevitably spread to the palace.
Into Zhao Heng's ears.
When Zhao Heng first knew that Taibai Jingtian appeared, his first reaction was not to doubt others.
But worry about yourself.
Among Taibai Jingtian's many warnings, one of them is related to him.
Di Beng!
He didn't want to die, so after waking up every day, he was worried.
He only breathed a sigh of relief when Qin Tianjian's verdict was delivered to him.
But he didn't take the verdict of the'female protagonist Chang' seriously.
It wasn't until he asked to see Kou Zhun and was rejected by Liu E because Kou Zhun was in poor health, that he had a different mind.
But he just ordered people to pay close attention to Liu E's movements, and he didn't give birth to the thoughts of abandonment.
however.
He doesn't have this mind, it doesn't mean that others don't have this mind either.
Zhou Huaizheng, who was by his side, knew that Zhao Heng had a different mind when he received the order from Zhao Heng to let him monitor Liu E.
Immediately, he also gave birth to a different mind.
After Liu E took control of the Central Palace, he suppressed him everywhere, and a large part of the eunuch and Gong E in his hand were robbed by Guo Huai.
Many of his positions are being cut step by step by Liu E.
Look at what Liu E meant, once Zhao Heng died, his life would be uncomfortable.
Ever since, he gave birth to the idea of agitating Zhao Heng after the abolition.
It was from the moment he gave birth to this idea.
He sent people to pay close attention to the movement outside the palace, and always told Zhao Heng about the bad news about Liu E.
Not only that, he also collected a lot of bad news about Ding Wei, and told Zhao Heng at the same time, and vaguely reminded Zhao Heng that the two had joined forces.
Zhou Huai was planning to deal with Ding Wei.
Since Ding Wei slapped him, he has been grudged by him, but he has never been able to find a chance.
Now that he has seized the opportunity, he will naturally not miss it.
In this way, under Zhou Huaizheng's constant use of bad news, Zhao Heng's heart was shaken.
Immediately, he asked Zhou Huaizheng to leave the palace and summoned the Kou to enter the palace for an audience.
Zhou Huaizheng was overjoyed and rushed out of the palace gate and went straight to the Kou Mansion.
…
In the Garden of the Four Kings.
In the study.
A large piece of paper was spread on the table, and six parts were written on the top of the paper.
Under the six departments, there are six official titles in each department, and a name is written next to each title.
Kou Ji picked up a pen and was about to write Fan Zhongyan's name under the post of Duzhi Langzhong in the household department.
As soon as he was about to write, he saw Kou Zhong hurriedly into the study.
"Young master, there is a visitor from the palace. It is Zhou Huaizheng, the close eunuch next to the official. He said that there was an official order, so tell the master. He has an official order, and the old servant dare not keep him out of the house. Now let him Waiting in the side hall, you see?"
Kou Ji put down his pen and said with a smile: "I guess he came back, but I didn't expect to come so soon."
After a pause, Kou Ji questioned: "It stands to reason that there is someone in the palace. You should go and inform my grandfather. If he can enter the palace, he has the final say. In this matter, I don't dare to be the master of him. ."
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly: "It was the master who asked the old servant to come and ask the young master..."
Hearing this, Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, and then grinned, "It seems that my grandfather has also guessed Zhou Huaizheng's intention to come to the mansion. This is to throw the problem to me."
"You go to the Pian Ting first and greet Zhou Huaizheng. I'll meet my grandfather."
Kou Zhong agreed and left Kou Ji's study.
Kou Ji tidied his clothes and stepped to Kou Zhun's bedroom.
Kou Zhun seemed to know that he would come, and asked the people who were waiting for him to help him sit up.
After Kou Ji entered the bedroom, he said, "Grandson Kou Ji, I have seen my grandfather."
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji with a complicated expression, and said nothing.
He has now affirmed that Kou Ji is a god-given person.
Because Kou Ji said before that the official will ask him to clear the side of the emperor, and it will soon be fulfilled.
"grandfather?"
Seeing that Kou Zhun didn't say a word, Kou Ji called out.
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji and sighed, "The official asked Zhou Huaizheng to invite the old man into the palace, I am afraid that he will come according to what you said. It should be to let the old man clear the side of the monarch."
After a pause, Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji and said meaningfully: "What do you think old man... should do?"
Kou Ji was stunned, but did not speak.
Kou Zhun was also taken aback, and then understood Kou Ji's intention not to speak.
Immediately, he waved his hand to let the people who served him go down first.
When they left their grandson and grandson in the bedroom, Kou Ji said: "Grandfather, if the official family really wants you to be sidelined by the emperor, you should ask the official family for two things."
"What?"
"Edict! Two edicts, one on the side of the Qing emperor, and one for mobilizing the Forbidden Army outside the city! In addition, you have to ask the official to give you an object that can win the trust of the Forbidden Army outside the city!"
Kou Zhun was stunned, and shook his head with a wry smile: "Based on the old man's understanding of the official family, the official may give an edict on the side of the Qing emperor, but he will definitely not give the old man an edict for mobilizing the forbidden army outside the city, nor will he give the old man a token. ."
Kou Ji solemnly said: "Then you can't promise..."
Kou Zhun groaned: "What if the officials are begging?"
Kou Ji shook his head, "I can't agree with it."
Kou Zhun hesitated: "Really... Can't you agree?"
Kou Ji said seriously: "If grandfather wants to agree, it's okay. But grandfather must make two preparations in advance."
Kou Zhun questioned: "The two preparations?"
Kou Ji said solemnly: "First, secretly order Zhu Neng, ready to dig the Yellow River embankment at any time, and flood the Bianjing city. Second, prepare the yellow robe..."
Kou Zhun stared in amazement and lost his voice: "Are you trying to make the old man rebel?"
Kou Ji smiled bitterly: "If my grandfather fails to get the official edict, nor can he get the items to win the trust of the imperial army, our grandparents want to survive, and the only way to go is to rebel."
Without even thinking about it, Kou Zhun shook his head decisively and said: "The old man will not give birth to this kind of thought if he dies. The old man advises you not to have this kind of thought."
Kou Ji said earnestly: "The grandson also knows that his grandfather will not do such a thing. But the grandson must remind his grandfather that if the official doesn't give me the two objects I mentioned, the grandfather must never agree to the official side."
Kou Zhun had a decision in his heart, but jokingly asked, "If the old man can't stand the pleading of the officials, will he agree?"
Kou Ji glanced at Kou Zhun and said quietly: "At that time, I am afraid that grandson will do everything to save his life."
Kou Zhun glared at Kou Ji fiercely, gritted his teeth and said: "The old man should kill you, a rebellious little thief on the spot. In the future, stop talking about this kind of rebellious remarks, or the old man will be rude to you!"
Kou Jican smiled, not afraid of Kou Zhun's threat.
He knew that Kou Zhun was just scaring him.
The grandfather and grandson were silent for a long time.
Kou Zhun suddenly patted his legs and said, "As long as the old man is like this, there is no way to enter the palace..."
