Chapter 478 477 Think of it together
Faced with King Yu's doubts, Li Fang whispered into King Yu's ear. King Yu's eyes flashed slightly and he understood the meaning of Wei Guangde's words.
He is an insider and naturally knows the reason for Wei Guangde's reaction just now.
After all, although Lan Daoxing was the favored alchemist of Emperor Jiajing, he was from Xu Jie after all, and he could be considered on his side.
Even if King Yu no longer likes the alchemists, he still has a sense of tolerance for the people on his side. Even though he has already made up his mind in his heart that he will never let them go after he takes office, but after knowing the relationship between Lan Daoxing and Xu Jie After that, he was naturally no longer within this scope.
King Yu knew very well that whether he was where he was today, whether his father did it intentionally or not, they were all people who made great efforts.
Whether in the palace or outside the palace, in such a difficult environment, they never left him. He, Zhu Zaijing, was not an ungrateful person.
Because of this, at first he was thinking about how to get Lan Daoxing out of Jinyiwei's prison.
And Wei Guangde is obviously such a person.
Among the three, he was the only one who knew the inside story, so he showed such an expression just now, which was a bit intolerable.
King Yu sighed secretly in his heart, should he really let Lan Daoxing die?
Perhaps he had seen too many conspiracies and intrigues in the palace and the world was so cold, so he seemed to be very tolerant towards people and things, but now he needed to show his ruthless side.
"Shandai, go to the restaurant to meet Mr. Xu Ge to discuss this matter."
The change in King Yu's expression made Zhang Juzheng quickly realize the meaning of Wei Guangde's words, and then Yin Shizhen.
"yes."
Wei Guangde could only stand up and bow to answer.
In fact, he did not want to wade into the troubled waters this time, but King Yu had already named him to go. Judging from the reactions of Yin Shizhen and Zhang Juzheng, it was certain that they did not know about it.
It seems most appropriate to go see Xu Jie by yourself.
Wei Guangde stood up straight and stopped sitting down. He cupped his hands at Yin Shizhen and Zhang Juzheng, and was about to go out.
At this time, Zhang Juzheng stood up and saluted King Yu: "Your Highness, I also want to see the teacher."
Regarding Zhang Juzheng's request, King Yu only hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Zhang Juzheng is different from Wei Guangde. Wei Guangde has no foundation in the court, but Zhang Juzheng does not.
Zhang Juzheng has a backer, and his backer is Mr. Xu Jie and Xu Ge.
Come to think of it, even if Zhang Juzheng knew the inside story, he would never leak it out. At this time, Mr. Xu Ge would probably need some of his students to comfort him.
Thinking of this, King Yu nodded and said, "You and Shandai can go together."
The two of them left the courtyard and headed to the side door of the palace's backyard. The road to the restaurant from there was short and remote, making it difficult to be discovered.
After walking a few steps, he saw the little chamberlain in front of him coming with a man dressed as a servant. Wei Guangde didn't pay attention at first, but a casual glance surprised him. How could he be dressed so much like someone from his own house? .
There are many princes and nobles in the capital, including many wealthy businessmen. The servants of each family are also very particular about their clothes, but they are still different from head to toe, either in color or style.
He didn't care about the maids in Wei Guangde's house. Xu Jianglan was in charge. However, most of the servants he brought from Jiujiang Wei were all in blue clothes and gray trousers, so the servants who came from Xu Jianglan were all replaced by Wei Guangde. Customized clothing for servants.
Wei Guangde, a member of his own family, naturally stopped and waited for someone to come.
Zhang Juzheng was surprised at first, but he was relieved when he saw the people coming over there in a hurry. Even though he was anxious, he could only wait there.
"what's up?"
Wei Guangde asked without waiting for the small chamberlain's announcement.
"master"
The servant whispered in Wei Guangde's ear. As time passed, Wei Guangde's expression became worse and worse.
"You follow me."
Wei Guangde gave an order, walked a few steps to meet Zhang Juzheng, and continued walking back with the servant. As Wei Guangde walked, he told Zhang Juzheng the news he had just received.
"What? They've already started interrogating people?"
Zhang Juzheng became even more anxious after hearing Wei Guangde's story.
"It's not bad. I got through it the first time. This Lan Daoxing is still very strict with his mouth."
Wei Guangde just sighed.
"You can survive the first time, but what happens next? Those thieves won't stop until they achieve their goals. This means they won't stop until they beat people to death."
Although Zhang Juzheng was urgent, he really had no choice.
He knew that the news must have come from within the Jin Yiwei, and the news between Prince Yu's Mansion and Jin Yiwei was mostly exchanged through Lu Yi, and all of this was the relationship between Wei Guangde and Lu Bing in the past.
After leaving Prince Yu's Mansion, they walked around and quickly entered a secluded alley. There was only a wooden door inside. After knocking twice, the wooden door opened and Wei Guangde and others filed in.
When they saw Xu Jie, Wei Guangde was still a little surprised.
Xu Jie's face is now very gray and he looks decadent.
In the past, no matter what happened, Xu Jie always had a plan in mind, but this time things were very different from before. Not only did Emperor Jiajing pay attention, but also the Jin Yiwei who couldn't reach him, and his sense of powerlessness hit him hard and made him There is a feeling of physical and mental exhaustion.
The three of them sat down in the private room, and soon Wei Guangde knew that Xu Jie was really out of ideas this time, which was not surprising, otherwise Zhang Juzheng would not have reacted like that.
Seeing the teacher's current state, Zhang Juzheng did not sit with Wei Guangde, but sat next to Xu Jie, whispering a few words of relief from time to time.
In fact, they didn't know that Xu Jie reacted like this, and more people saw them.
Thinking about it in Xu Jie, the matter was so important that King Yu could not come in person, but the people who led the team to see him should at least be Li Fang and Yin Shizhen. Unexpectedly, the visitors were Wei Guangde and his students.
Yes, Xu Jie felt abandoned by Prince Yu's Palace at this time.
"Mr. Xu Ge, do you really think there is no other way?"
Wei Guangde knew that time was very important now. It was hard to say when Lan Daoxing would be interrogated again, and it was hard to say whether he could survive the severe punishment. As long as he couldn't bear the punishment, no matter how much they did, it would be useless.
As long as there was one confession, it would be too late, but he still asked one more time because he was not sure whether Xu Jie still had any backup plans.
"Shandai, I really have no choice."
Xu Jie shook his head slightly and said.
"Teacher, don't worry, you are not afraid of slanting shadows if you are upright."
Zhang Juzheng is still comforting Xu Jie. This is also the time to win the teacher's favor. Adding icing on the cake is not as good as providing timely assistance. Now, if you show your persistence to the teacher, you will gain the most.
Wei Guangde had an idea. Although it was a little hard to say, it was still a solution.
"Shandai, Uncle, can Prince Yu's Mansion get a line in Jinyiwei and resolve this matter as soon as possible?"
Xu Jie gathered his mood at this time and asked.
"What do you mean, Mr. Ge, to let Jin Yiwei know about this matter?"
Wei Guangde asked with a frown.
"As long as there is a simple interrogation, it will be fine that I have nothing to do with Lan Daoxing. Hua Ting is very grateful to prevent the Yan family from framing me."
As Xu Jie said this, he was about to stand up, but Zhang Juzheng grabbed him and asked him to sit back in his seat.
"Mr. Ge, the news we just received is that after Lan Daoxing was sent to prison, someone threatened him with this. And when we came over, we received news from prison that Lan Daoxing had already been interrogated once. Yes, he was tortured and now he has passed out, but fortunately he did not speak."
Wei Guangde calmly told Xu Jie what he knew, and Xu Jie felt heartbroken when he heard it.
After the punishment, the person fainted and died.
Xu Jie didn't dare to think deeply about Jin Yiwei's methods, but it was enough to make him nervous.
If you can get through it the first time, what about the second and third time?
"Shandai, there must be someone in Prince Yu's palace in the prison."
Xu Jie stared at Wei Guangde at this time, and said with a fierce look in his eyes.
Wei Guangde thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
"Can you please give this to him?"
While talking, Xu Jie took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table.
This is also the ultimate purpose of Xu Jie's coming here.
He had no one in Jinyiwei, otherwise he would never have done it for others, but would have done it himself.
God is unaware of it.
But there was no one but Prince Yu's Mansion to help with the matter.
The porcelain vase was placed on the table, and Wei Guangde and Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but stare slightly.
They were not stupid, they all guessed what was in the porcelain bottle.
In later film and television works, there are many opportunities for such things to appear, but it is the first time for Wei Guangde to actually appear before his eyes.
He did not reach out to take it, but just stared at the porcelain bottle, seeming to be analyzing its ingredients.
"teacher"
Zhang Juzheng was surprised. He didn't expect that the teacher would actually go together with Wei Guangde.
Looking back, Wei Guangde still did not reach for the porcelain bottle, but nodded slightly and said, "We will try our best."
"It's not about trying your best, it's about making him eat it before he opens his mouth."
Xu Jie said anxiously.
After the words fell, Zhang Juzheng had already reached for the porcelain bottle on the table and held it in his hand, "Teacher, I know what to do."
At this time, only Wei Guangde and Zhang Juzheng were left in the private room, and Xu Jie had already left.
After explaining the matters, Xu Jie hurried back to the cabinet.
Now, it goes without saying that people from the Yan family will definitely follow him when he goes out. As for whether he is afraid of being discovered, he no longer cares about it.
Xu Jie also secretly felt cruel in his heart. He must not easily bypass the Yan family this time. At this time, he would have to do this to him.
"Shandai, what can you do? Give this thing to Lan Daoxing."
Zhang Juzheng asked.
"call"
Taking a deep breath, Wei Guangde looked at Zhang Juzheng.
Before, he had refused to accept the porcelain bottle. His original intention was to let Xu Jie send the people he contacted with Lan Daoxing to take action. Whether he ate it himself or drank it, at least he would only bear grudges against the Xu family.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Juzheng actually reached out and took away the porcelain vase. This was not to accept this errand.
"You are Mr. Xu Ge's disciple. It's up to you to do this. I think Lan Daoxing also knows about you."
Wei Guangde said calmly: "I will contact someone and arrange to send you to the imperial prison to meet Lan Daoxing and tell him that what Mr. Xu Ge promised him will be done. I think he will be willing to eat the contents of this bottle.
After all, although life is worse than death, what's the point of living if life is worse than death. "
Although he didn't know what the relationship was between Lan Daoxing and Xu Jie, Wei Guangde was sure that Xu Jie had promised Lan Daoxing something before, so Lan Daoxing was willing to do things for Xu Jie.
But now that Xu Jie has promised to fulfill his promise, Lan Daoxing should die generously.
I hope so. As Xu Jie said before, even if Lan Daoxing doesn't want to eat it, it's not up to him.
Calling the servant who came in at the door, Wei Guangde gave detailed instructions, asking him to take Zhang Juzheng to meet the contact person, and explained in detail what needed to be done.
Zhang Juzheng listened carefully and had nothing to add.
"Remember, when you tell the person who comes, you must make it clear to his master. In addition to ensuring confidentiality, you must also clear up the gang operations and assign those who are disobedient as soon as possible."
Wei Guangde was still talking in detail, and the servant frowned and took notes very carefully.
Zhang Juzheng was going to do this in person. Why did Wei Guangde say this? In fact, he was also telling Zhang Juzheng.
Wei Guangde was not sure what they would do after they left. He would first speak out according to his own ideas. Zhang Juzheng had a better way, which he could at least use as a reference.
After finishing speaking, Wei Guangde stood up, cupped his hands with Zhang Juzheng and said, "Brother Uncle, just follow him. I will return to Prince Yu's Mansion first."
"Thank you."
Zhang Juzheng also stood up and cupped his hands.
The two sides said goodbye and Wei Guangde set off on the way he came. As for Zhang Juzheng, he ignored it for the time being.
Returning to Prince Yu's Mansion, Wei Guangde met Prince Yu and briefly explained Mr. Xu Ge's request.
"So best."
King Yu nodded. Since Xu Jie also had this idea, it couldn't be better.
"Will there be any further trouble?"
At this time, Yin Shizhen said worriedly.
"It's better than Lan Daoxing being tortured and biting out Mr. Xu Ge."
Wei Guangde replied: "As long as he does not tell Mr. Xu Ge before his death, but instead cries injustice and insists that it was a traitor who planned it, it is enough that he will not be punished but choose to commit suicide to prove his innocence."
Wei Guangde believed in Lu Yi's power in the Jinyi Guards. An emaciated camel was bigger than a horse. Lu Bing had been the governor for so many years, and the Fusi of Beizhen was run by him in a watertight manner. Even if he died, those people would still be there.
What's more, diverting trouble to the east and secretly inciting the use of torture will be found out, which is enough for him to drink a pot.
Xu Jie is still smarter than Wei Guangde.
Although the Lu family is no longer the commander, Lu Yi has taken over the vacancy of Jin Yiwei's command and still has a huge influence among Jin Yiwei, and is more than enough to arrange these things.
With the power of the Lu family, if Emperor Jiajing didn't like to stay in the harem to cultivate immortality and neglected to have contact with powerful children like them, he would probably be the successor to Lu Bing.
The reason why Zhu Xizhong was favored by Emperor Jiajing was not only that the emperor could safely handle his errands, but also because when he went to Anlu, Zhu Xizhong went with him on behalf of the nobles, so he naturally had more contact with the emperor than other nobles.
Those nobles who initially thought it was a long and hard journey may feel regretful.
"This Lan Daoxing is good and his bones are very hard. It's a pity."
King Yu said with some regret at this time.
"Hey, this is life."
Wei Guangde also echoed.
Prince Yu's Mansion remained as usual, as if nothing had happened.
During lunch, Li Fang carefully approached Wei Guangde and asked, "What did Mr. Xu Ge promise to Lan Daoxing?"
Wei Guangde shook his head, "I don't know."
"Hey, it's not just empty talk."
Li Fang couldn't help but say after hearing this.
"Mr. Xu Ge should keep his promise."
Wei Guangde said uncertainly.
In the new year, I wish you a prosperous career and a bright future! Grand plans! Prosperous financial resources! Good people have a safe life!
