It rains constantly in the capital before winter, and the sky is always gray.
The road outside Deshengmen in the north city of the capital was muddy. In the thin morning mist, a carriage came speeding up. The driver of the carriage swung his whip and let the thin raindrops fall on his rough face, but did not bother to raise his head. Wipe your hands.
In the rickety and bumpy carriage, a man with a white face and beard in casual clothes was sitting. The man kept opening the curtain of the carriage and looked at the majestic and towering city walls of the capital in front of him. There was a hint of joy in his expression that could not be concealed. anxiety.
The man¡¯s surname was Liu and his given name was Qing. He was the culprit who caused more than thirty generals to be exterminated and the official Ma Shangshu to be assassinated for revenge, Liu Qing, the eunuch guarding the Xuanfu.
Liu Qing came to Beijing secretly in civilian clothes this time.
He had to come. Long before Ma Wensheng was assassinated, Liu Qing had received news that more than thirty generals assigned to Qiongnan had fled en masse. At that time, he panicked and knew that things were about to get serious, so he rushed to the capital without stopping. The day after Ma Wensheng was assassinated, the carriage he was riding in had arrived outside the Desheng Gate of the capital.
It's not that Liu Qing was soft-hearted. When he exterminated more than 30 families of women and children, he made too much noise. Many generals in the Xuanfu frontier army shared the same hatred and were dissatisfied with him. Liu Qing did not dare to act rashly. He originally planned to make a move this year when the noise was lessened. Then he sent people to eliminate the thirty generals who had been assigned. Unexpectedly, when he was about to send assassins to solve this personal problem, the thirty generals somehow learned that they had been wiped out, so they collectively Absconded
Looking at the towering and majestic ancient city walls of the capital in the distance, Liu Qing's heart felt as if a big stone was pressing down, heavy.
"I hope those murderers didn't make any noise in the capital, otherwise Liu Qing would be in a desperate situation.
The carriage drove very fast and entered the city gate in an instant.
After entering the city, Liu Qing received the news like a thunderbolt from the blue. The official Ma Shangshu was assassinated yesterday. The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of Jinyiweidong Factory.
"Thorough investigation" means that in order for things to have a result, we must also find out the causes, and both causes and consequences are indispensable.
The result is none of Liu Qing's business. What he fears is the antecedent, because he, Liu Qing, is the "antecedent" and he cannot withstand investigation.
The pale-faced Liu Qing panicked and hurriedly handed over the greeting card and gift list secretly to his backstage dignitaries in the capital.
When the greeting card and gift list were thrown out from the crack of the door, the anxious Liu Qing finally fell into despair. He knew that he was finished.
Qin Kan gradually discovered that the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty knew the art of speaking, and the older they got, the better they became.
With a smile, he praises people who do immoral things as talents. Such people are more immoral than people who do immoral things. Anyway, Qin Kan always felt that the old man was smiling and cursing in his ears. What was even more uncomfortable was that Qin Kan himself didn't know whether he should blush and glare at this moment or hold up his hands to show humility, so he had to pretend not to hear anything. .
It¡¯s not that Qin Kan hasn¡¯t reflected on himself. He has defined himself as neither a good person nor a pure person. Such people often don¡¯t please both sides. The good guys camp won¡¯t accept them, and the bad guys camp will reject them. They can live like this without being embarrassed. In two lifetimes, fortunately, I have managed not to be too bad in both lifetimes. I don¡¯t know whether it was luck or strength, and I don¡¯t know whether my future end will be wealth and glory or being extinct from the people.

The factory guards surrounded Ma Mansion tightly, with swords unsheathed and bows strung. The small mansion was as heavily guarded as the palace, and the silence exuded a murderous aura.
Everyone is waiting for those assassins to strike again.
Everyone also believes that they will take action. Some hatred cannot be eliminated and can only become stronger and more profound as time goes by. It is said that the deepest hatred in the world is the hatred of killing one's father, the hatred of taking away one's wife, and the hatred of killing a whole family. Ichijo has included all the hatred. The factory guards know it, and the assassins also know it. This is a dead end that cannot be solved. The conflict is impossible to avoid, it is just a matter of time.
Not only the factory guards were waiting, but the entire capital, from the emperor to the seventh-rank censor of the court, were all waiting, pondering while waiting.
Naturally, it is impossible to stop such a big event just by getting the thief. There is a lot to be done in it, including assassinating the heavenly officials and sending letters to the palace gates. This is a naked provocation to the imperial power. It can be said that this matter is actually a basin of dirty water. Who knows? If you don't find it disgusting, you can pour dirty water on a political opponent and his skin will peel off even if he doesn't die.
So everyone was silent, silently waiting for the thieves to take action, silently using their brains, thinking about what clever means to use to burn the fire on the political opponents.
Qin Kan is also thereWait, he is just a small Qianhu, and he does not have as many calculations as the court ministers. He just hopes that nothing will happen to Ma Wensheng within the three-day period set by His Majesty. As for whether the case can be solved after three days, he has no control over it. This should be a headache for Mou Bin. Just because he saved Ma Wensheng's life when he was assassinated, Qin Kan is already in an invincible position, even if there is no result in the case within three days, even if the entire Jin Yiwei is blamed by His Majesty , you can be sure that he will not be punished in any way, because he has the merit to be at the bottom.
Sometimes Qin Kan also feels that he is quite sad. He has learned the essence of bureaucracy even when he is just a small Qianhu. He should push forward everything if he can, and avoid everything if he can. Think about it from another angle, if he were the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, what would happen to him? If there are all such ministers in the court, I'm afraid they will be so angry that they vomit blood, right?
There is only one Qin Kan in the world, luckily there is only one.

The expected thing happened as promised.
Some hatred must be repaid against time, otherwise the hatred will backfire and drive people crazy.
These assassins are probably in a state of madness.
On the second night after Ma Wensheng was assassinated, just after midnight, the Jinyi guards and Dongchang fans outside Ma Mansion sounded the gong to warn. The sound of gongs pierced the silence of the capital, and all the patrolling captains and police officers inside and outside Ma Mansion The boys all took action, and a hundred musketeers also lined up in the front yard, waiting for the thieves to appear and give them a heavy blow.
Qin Kan has been sleeping in the gatehouse at the front door of Ma Mansion for the past two days. He has a heavy responsibility and he dare not go home. He must be nailed to his post like a nail.
Hearing the warning sound, Qin Kan, who was lying in his clothes, quickly got up and rushed out.
He was not worried about meeting the thief head-on, because he had set up at least three lines of defense in the streets and alleys of the inner city outside the front door of Ma Mansion. If the thief wanted to reach the concierge, he would have to pay a long time and heavy price.
Qin Kan is just wondering. According to his estimation, these assassins should not be so reckless. They should at least be fully prepared before acting. Why did they decide to take action tonight?
Judging from their precise planning on the day of the first assassination, it seems that the IQ level of tonight's thieves has dropped a lot, which is what Qin Kan finds most strange.
The sound of the gong became more and more rapid and louder. The captain who was beating the gong was obviously approaching the gate of Ma Mansion rapidly.
Qin Kan stood on the stone steps of the gate with a cold face, surrounded by a group of captains with bows and strings on their bows. Ding Shun and his subordinates were inseparable, and they drew their swords and surrounded him in the center.
Qin Kan quietly stared at the empty street in the distance outside the door, and listened quietly to the increasingly rapid and clear sound of gongs at the end of the street.
Only a scream could be heard, and the sound of the gong suddenly stopped. Apparently the captain who struck the gong had been killed by an assassin.
Qin Kan couldn't help but be frightened. This group of assassins was too powerful. Have they broken through the three lines of defense he had arranged?
In the dark and silent street in the distance, several black shadows appeared. The black shadows jumped and moved, staggering a little. They were dressed in black. They were not dressed as school captains or military uniforms. Their targets were directed towards the gate of Ma Mansion. Come.
Qin Kan sighed secretly, they finally came, even though they came unwisely.
ps: I feel too tired recently, my energy is getting worse and worse, and my complexion is getting worse and worse. My wife said it was too much stress and lack of exercise, so I decided to bite the bullet and buy a treadmill tomorrow.
I really want to live another five hundred years. . . (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.) (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
