Chapter 414: Those who are near Zhu are red and those who are near Mo are black

Through Kou Ji's words, Chen Lin naturally inferred that the empress dowager Liu E sent the equipment supervisor to assassinate the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan.

But he couldn't believe it, let alone speak it out.

I always feel a little shocking.

Kou Ji smiled and glanced at Chen Lin, "Do you think that the queen mother sent someone to assassinate Zhao's Da Zongzheng, it's a bit crazy?"

Chen Lin nodded stiffly.

The Zhao family is very upright. In terms of status and status, it is no better than the official family or the queen mother, but in terms of power, it is the power of the patriarch.

As soon as the relatives and relatives of the emperor, the Zhao family is in charge.

The relatives and relatives of the emperor were the most distinguished group of people in the Song Dynasty.

In other words, in certain powers, the Zhao family was equally divided with the officials.

Such a character can actually be assassinated by assassination

If such a character is assassinated to death, the public opinion caused by the government and the public is equivalent to the assassination of the prime minister.

It's hard to calm down.

Chen Lin felt that Liu E was crazy.

Seeing Chen Lin nodded, Kou Ji continued: "What a character the queen mother is, you know very well in your heart. It is impossible for the queen mother to do that kind of trouble asking for trouble. Then the queen mother's move illustrates a problem."

"what is the problem?"

Chen Lin asked urgently.

Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and said earnestly: "The Queen Mother already has close evidence of the usurpation of the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan in her hands. Only in this way can she be assured of sending someone to assassinate the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan without worrying about getting involved. trouble."

Chen Lin's pupils shrank.

Rao is that he has received the restless news of the Eighth King Zhao Yuan from other channels. Hearing Kou Ji's words at the moment, he couldn't calm down.

Empress Dowager Liu E dared to send someone to assassinate the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan, which shows that the manpower recruited by the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan could already threaten the status of Zhao Zhen and Liu E.

As Zhao Zhen's most loyal servant, how could his heart be calm.

But the heart is not at peace, but the heart is not at peace.

After hearing Kou Ji's words, he analyzed it seriously, and then said with a solemn expression: "Since the queen mother has the evidence of the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan usurping the throne, why not open it uprightly and send someone to assassinate it instead? "

Kou Ji admired: "It's really extraordinary that you can quickly calm down and find the key to the problem when you hear someone threatening the status of an official."

Chen Lin stared at Kou Ji with a sullen face, "Our family doesn't need you to chase after, so tell us the truth quickly."

Kou Ji nodded and said: "According to my guess, the reason why the Queen Mother, after knowing that the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan had the intention of usurping the throne, not only didn't reveal the matter, but rather added to the flames.

The queen mother sent someone to the Eight Kings Mansion to assassinate the eight king Zhao Yuanyan, it should be a dark move to prevent changes. "

After Kou Ji received Chen Lin's reminder, now that day and night have passed, Liu E sent to the equipment supervisor of the Eight Princes' Mansion without any movement at all.

That means that Liu E sent the equipment supervisor to assassinate the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan. He did not immediately assassinate the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan. Instead, he lurked in the house of the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan, waiting for the opportunity.

When exactly, Kou Ji probably also had some guesses.

It should be the time to wait for the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan to get up.

Or maybe it was a critical time point after the uprising of the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan.

I have to admit that Liu E made a wonderful move.

At the critical moment, it will surely make the Eight King Zhao Yuanyan extremely cool.

But as the queen mother, Liu E actually condoned the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan to usurp the throne, which shows that she must have a plan behind her back.

Chen Lin stared at Kou Ji in disbelief, "You mean... the queen mother is indulging the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan to usurp the throne?"

Kou Ji nodded.

Chen Lin took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice: "She is dying... In case... In case the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan discovers her dark hand, she will push the boat along the way.

That official family will be reduced to a dangerous place.

How dare she

How dare to make the officials in danger? "

Kou Ji said solemnly: "She dared to make a bet on the official's house, which shows that her plan is very big."

Chen Lin suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Kou Ji's arm, and shouted, "You must stop this! You must stop this!"

Kou Ji raised an eyebrow, "Blocking the Queen Mother's way..."

Before Kou Ji finished speaking, Chen Lin eagerly shouted: "No matter what the queen mother has in our family, our family must not watch the official family fall into danger."

Seeing Chen Lin's bait, Kou Ji smiled and said with a helpless look on his face: "The problem is, I don't know the specific plan of the queen mother at all. How can I stop this?"

Chen Lin grabbed the hand of Kou Ji's arm and pressed harder, "Our family has said that our family does not care about the Queen Mother's plan, our family only cares about the safety of the official family."

Kou Ji still looked helpless and said: "But the queen mother has already made a move and has already participated in it. If I don't know the plan of the queen mother, how can I see the move.

It is not difficult to move Zhao Yuan blindly.

But what if the queen mother stood up because of this? "

"Queen Mother? Stand up?!"

Chen Lin stunned for a moment and stared at Kou Ji, "The queen mother wants to return to the court, so let her return to the court. Our family only cares about the safety of the official family. As long as the official family is safe, the rest of our family Regardless of."

This time.

It was Kou Ji's turn to froze.

Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin for a long time, and sighed: "I shouldn't discuss this with you. You are the best servant around the official, and the best eunuch."

Kou Ji found out that he was looking for the wrong person when he came to Chen Lin.

Chen Lin is willing to do everything for the official Zhao Zhen.

So he only cares about the safety of the official Zhao Zhen.

Therefore, as long as the safety of the official Zhao Zhen can be guaranteed, whether Liu E will come to the court, and how great the harm will be after Liu E's return to the court, he doesn't care at all.

Kou Ji didn't plan to continue chatting with Chen Lin, so he said decisively: "I will naturally protect the officials and considerate, and you will go to the Privy Council and get a transfer order.

I will secretly dispatch the Tiger Army into Beijing in case of emergency. "

No matter what kind of situation he will face in the future, as long as the Tiger Army is in hand, Kou Ji will be able to advance and retreat in an orderly manner.

Chen Lin almost agreed to the matter without any hesitation.

It is difficult to get a transfer order from the Privy Council, but Chen Lin is not so difficult.

It is a serious crime to forge orders and mobilize soldiers and horses privately.

But for the safety of official Zhao Zhen, Chen Lin didn't care at all.

Seeing that Chen Lin agreed to help transfer troops, Kou Ji continued: "Besides, you have to do one thing for me..."

Chen Lin blurted out, "Say!"

Kou Ji said solemnly: "Help me pay close attention to the movements in the Queen Mother's bedroom, and see who the Queen Mother has been with in recent days."

"can!"

Kou Ji is not easy to monitor and investigate people in the palace, but Chen Lin can.

Moreover, Chen Lin has eunuchs and Gong E who specialize in inquiring about news and marking people in the palace.

Kou Ji nodded in satisfaction.

When the goal was achieved, he didn't intend to continue discussing with Chen Lin, and immediately wanted to find an excuse to leave.

I didn't expect it.

As he walked towards the gate of the palace, Chen Lin suddenly said, "If you want to know about the things in the Queen’s Palace, it doesn’t have to be so troublesome. You can find someone who will tell you all the news in the Queen’s Palace. ."

"Who?"

"Guo Yi!"

Kou Ji turned around and said with a puzzled look: "Who is Guo Yi?"

Chen Lin said with a sullen face: "Guo Huai's godson, a young eunuch who is also damned."

Kou Ji felt thoughtful upon hearing this.

Chen Lin said solemnly: "The so-called "close to Zhu" and "close to ink" are black. Guo Huai is greedy, and his godson is also greedy. However, if there are any rewards or opportunities for greedy for money, Guo Huai will personally go into battle. Give his godson less chance.

So few people know that Guo Yi is greedy.

It is precisely because Guo Huai rarely gives Guo Yi opportunities, that Guo Yi dared to accept any money and sell any news.

As long as you can give Guo Yi money, Guo Yi dare to tell you anything. "

Kou Ji bowed his hand to Chen Lin, "Thank you..."

Chen Lin stared at Kou Ji gloomily: "Our family tells you this news, not to make you thank our family. Our family wants to use this news to change you to another person."

"No change!"

Kou Ji waved his hand decisively, opened the door of Zichen Temple, and walked out.

Chen Lin said angrily: "Our family hasn't said yet!"

Kou Ji turned a deaf ear, and after leaving the Zichen Palace, he walked quickly to the outside of the palace.

Kou Ji knows who Chen Lin wants to change with Kou Ji.

Knowing that Zhao Zhen might be in danger, there was only one person Chen Lin wanted to pass from Kou Ji.

Dumb tiger!

Only with a master guard like Duhu by Zhao Zhen's side, Chen Lin would feel more secure.

But Kou Ji couldn't send the dumb tiger himself, how to send the dumb tiger to Chen Lin.

For more than a year, Kou Ji has not encountered any life-threatening time, and the dumb tiger has not appeared for more than a year.

No matter how Kou Ji summoned, Duhu just refused to appear in front of him.

If it hadn't been for Kou Zhong to send some food to a specific place every day for the dumb tiger to eat, Kou Ji felt that the food might have disappeared.

Kou Ji is out of the palace.

Back to the house.

I want to send Kou Zhong to the Liu Mansion to pass a message, and let Liu Heng come over.

But considering that it was getting late, I dismissed this idea.

Until the morning of the second day.

Kou Jicai dispatched Kou Zhong to the Liu Mansion to spread the word.

Liu Heng knew that Kou Ji was planning a major event recently, so after getting a message from Kou Ji, he quickly rushed to Kou's Mansion.

As soon as he entered the backyard of the Kou Mansion, he said anxiously: "Four brother, you hurriedly called me over, did you hear any news from the palace?"

After Kou Ji asked Liu Heng to sit down, he said: "I have asked someone to check the news in the palace. But I am afraid I have to wait a few days. I heard you say that you know some eunuchs in the palace, and you can use them. Some news from here?"

Liu Heng nodded and said, "There are so many eunuchs..."

After a pause, Liu Heng unexpectedly looked at Kou Ji and said, "Isn't it true that the fourth brother, you haven't found anything in the palace, so you can only use these little eunuchs to find out the news?"

Kou Ji glared at Liu Heng, "Don’t guess... The news in the palace will take a few days, but I am afraid that time will not wait for anyone, so I decided to do both. I got a news from elsewhere that there is someone in the palace who can help. We snooped out the news we wanted, so I plan to let you send someone out."

"Who?"

"Guo Yi!"

Liu Heng glanced at Kou Ji in amazement, and said in a deep voice, "Guo Yi is a person next to my aunt. Do you still want to check my aunt's news?"

Kou Ji stared at Liu Heng seriously: "If you feel embarrassed, I can ask Cao Tong to do this..."

Liu Heng shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Since the fourth brother asked me to check my aunt's news, he would have trusted me. I will not disappoint the fourth brother's trust in me.

It's just that, fourth brother, can you tell me why you want to check my aunt? "

Kou Ji only asked Liu Heng to check people before, but he didn't tell Liu Heng the cause and effect.

Now when Liu Heng asked, Kou Ji did not hide it, and immediately explained his guess.

After Liu Heng heard Kou Ji's guess, he looked shocked, "My aunt would actually indulge the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan to usurp the throne?!"

Kou Ji nodded and said: "She made people abandon the Shaofu Supervisor and will serve as a Supervisor in order to arouse the hostility of the Manchu civil and military forces to my grandfather. The biggest beneficiary of this move is Zhao Yuanyan.

Those civil servants in the DPRK were dissatisfied with my grandfather's actions, but they were helpless with my grandfather.

Therefore, some people secretly took refuge in Zhao Yuanyan, and Zhao Yuanyan's wings quickly plumped up.

The pace that prompted Zhao Yuanyan to usurp the throne hastened. "

Liu Heng said in shock: "One can't handle it, but it's about to change... How dare my aunt..."

Kou Ji said quietly: "Your aunt should feel that she can control the situation."

Liu Heng questioned: "What if you don't have a good control? Wen Buqi feels that he can control Jiao Si Luo, but now? Jiao Si Luo is still the Zanpu of Qingtang, the Tubo co-lord, but Wen Buqi The skull has become a wine glass in Horn Si Luo's hand."

Kou Ji nodded, "I am also worried about accidents, so I want to find out what your aunt wants to do."

Liu Heng got up and said with a heavy expression to Kou Ji: "Fourth brother, don't worry, I will find out this matter as soon as possible, and there will be no accidents."

Liu Heng took a trip to Qingtang, and was used to seeing the position of the heads of the tribes on the Qingtang land, and learned a lot of principles for politics.

The status of the Liu family today depends entirely on Liu E.

But Liu E's status today depends entirely on the first emperor Zhao Heng and the official Zhao Zhen.

If Liu E died suddenly, the Liu family can still continue to be rich and wealthy with the identity of the Queen Mother Liu Eniang's family.

But if the official Zhao Zhen's status is shaken.

Not only will Liu E be unlucky, but the Liu family will also follow.

Therefore, it is impossible for Liu Heng to watch Zhao Zhen's status shake, let alone watch the Liu family fall.

After Liu Heng left the Kou Mansion, he immediately recruited his own staff and secretly contacted Guo Huai's godson Guo Yi.

Kou Ji was at the house, waiting for Chen Lin and Liu Heng to bring him the latest news.

As Chen Lin said.

Guo Yi, Guo Huai's godson, is far more greedy than Guo Huai.

After learning that someone outside the palace was looking for him, he knew that someone wanted to send him money.

After he got the news, he left the palace without any hesitation.

I found the manpower sent by Liu Heng.
