    Looking at Xu Xianchun and Cao Huachun kneeling in front of him, Emperor Tianqi cheered up. He didn't know why he always felt sleepy and unable to cheer up recently.  Emperor Tianqi also found that he was always easily irritable and angry. He originally wanted to beat Luo Sigong and Wei Chao, but in the end he almost couldn't control himself.  Shaking his head slowly, maybe it was because there were too many things going on recently. Emperor Tianqi drove out the messy thoughts and said: "One of you is a capable member of Jinyiwei, and the other is an old man beside me. There are some things that I still have to do."  You can rest assured." Xu Xianchun and Cao Huachun knelt on the ground. When Emperor Tianqi said this, they both knew that the opportunity had come.  Since returning to Beijing, Xu Xianchun has been on the bench in Jinyiwei. Everyone above and below him is very polite to him, but they all seem distant.  Xu Xianchun knew very well that he was now the number two person in Jin Yiwei and was not Luo Sigong's confidant, so such treatment was naturally expected.  Although Xu Xianchun was dissatisfied, he did not dare to speak out. Although he had a high status, he only relied on Emperor Tianqi's respect.  But when it comes to the Holy Family alone, Xu Xianchun feels that he is not as good as Luo Sigong.  But when things got to this point, there was only one way in front of him, and that was to move Luo Sigong away.  Even if you don't have such thoughts, others may not think so.  There was no way to retreat but to move forward, and Xu Xianchun was not willing to succumb to others.  Cao Huachun felt even more unbalanced. He was an old man next to Emperor Tianqi. Emperor Tianqi had been by his side since he was a child. He could be said to be the closest eunuch.  However, since Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne, these close eunuchs have not come forward. Instead, people like Wang An and Wei Chao have been in power.  Although Wang Chengen and Chen Hong are also old people, Wang Chengen is a close servant of Emperor Tianqi. This Cao Huachun cannot compare.  On weekdays, Cao Huachun suppressed his dissatisfaction. He couldn't wait for a chance to express himself. He needed to tell Emperor Tianqi that he was stronger than the Wei Dynasty and others.  "I accept the order!" "I accept the order!" Xu Xianchun and Cao Huachun replied quickly and respectfully, but they could not hide the excitement on their faces.  Looking at the expressions of the two people, Emperor Tianqi nodded slowly. If you want the horse to run, you must feed it well.  After thinking about it, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Xu Aiqing, the Jinyi Guards are the emperor's personal soldiers, and I value them very much. You can handle your errands well, and I will not treat you badly!" Then he turned his eyes to Cao Huachun and said: "Cao Huachun, you are  Attendant of the emperor, please do your job well. The father-in-laws who are in charge of the ceremony are all very young, so don¡¯t worry." Now both of them were stunned. No one expected that Emperor Tianqi would speak like this. This was no longer a subtle message to him.  Man, this is what I said.  However, the two of them also realized that this matter was probably not trivial, otherwise the emperor would never have spoken like this.  "Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do my best until my death." Both of them had excited expressions on their faces and kowtowed to Emperor Tianqi quickly.  After waving his hand, Emperor Tianqi continued: "This errand is my test for you two. I have explained it. If things are done well, I will reward you in various ways. If you fail, you two don't have to come back.  See me." The two of them were shocked, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on their heads, and they woke up immediately.  No one was talking, they were all waiting for Emperor Tianqi's orders. Success or failure depended on this.  "I will send you two to Shanxi and Shaanxi this time. The people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei are not allowed to be used. I will select 500 people from the imperial guards, and you will each take half of them. Remember not to reveal your identity." Apocalypse  The emperor looked at the two people with burning eyes. The expression on his face was very complicated, but his eyes were unusually determined.  This time the two of them were even more confused. What are they going to do?  Who does the emperor want to investigate?  However, the two of them didn't dare to ask. They just knelt there and listened to the next row of Emperor Tianqi.  "After you arrive in Shanxi and Shaanxi, the only thing you have to do is to find out the situation in the two provinces. Whether it is official or private, whether it is public or private, you must find out everything for me. For government and businessmen  Collusion, military [***], and empty pay must all be investigated." Emperor Tianqi stared at the two people, waiting for their answers.  "Your Majesty, I have something to report!" Xu Xianchun didn't realize how difficult this errand was. If he really couldn't handle it, he wouldn't have to mess around.  However, there are some things that need to be said beforehand, and there are some things that need to be prepared beforehand.  He nodded slowly. Emperor Tianqi was not afraid of those who had conditions to do things, but was afraid of those who couldn't do things.  As long as things are done well, some requirements are normal.  "Your Majesty, what are the identities of the minister and Eunuch Cao who went to Wushan and Shaanxi provinces this time? If their identities are not exposed, many things may be difficult to accomplish in a short time. I don't know what the emperor has said to me and Eunuch Cao."When you were young, you said?  The emperor does not allow me to mobilize people from Jinyiwei and Dongchang. I wonder why?  But because you are afraid that the news will leak out?  "Although he doesn't know why, Xu Xianchun knows that this errand is definitely not as simple as it seems. He can only say these words bravely. Emperor Tianqi not only did not get angry, but smiled and nodded, with a look of appreciation on his face.  Smile. I can say these words precisely because I use my heart. As long as I do things sincerely, Emperor Tianqi will not be angry. "There is no time limit for this mission. You can come back when I think it is okay."  As for when I think it's okay, it depends on how well you do.  You decide your identity on the surface. Your private identity is that of an imperial envoy. I will give you an imperial edict.  Regarding hiding your identity, I allow you to do it easily.  You are not allowed to use the people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei because you are really afraid that the news will be leaked.  "Emperor Tianqi looked at Xu Xianchun and Cao Huachun and answered the questions one by one. "Your Majesty, as far as Nubei knows, whether Wulu is Dongchang or Jinyiwei, there are spies in various places.  These people all live as ordinary people and have no contact with Jinyiwei and Dongchang who live in different places.  "The person who spoke this time was Xu Xianchun. Although the expression on his face remained unchanged, there was a flash of fanaticism in his eyes. "Whether it is in the Jinyi Guards or in the Dongchang, these hidden spies are the key to controlling power. These talents are the key to power.  The most critical thing about the factory and Jinyiwei is that the list of Dongchang is in the hands of the director of Dongchang, and the other is in the hands of Emperor Tianqi. Naturally, Jinyiwei is no exception, and one copy is in the hands of Luo Sigong.  , a copy is in the hands of Emperor Tianqi. Regarding the list in his hand, Emperor Tianqi is very clear that these people are all Jin Yiwei who were hidden on the spot when Emperor Chengzu was established.  After more than two hundred years of development, it has become very large. These people do not take the initiative to contact anyone. They live the lives of ordinary people, serve as officials, practice medicine and sell, and have various identities.  He only held that token all his life, but never did anything. When he was dying, he passed this mission to his descendants. Emperor Tianqi stared at Cao Huachun seriously, with a look on his face.  Constantly changing, he naturally knew what Cao Huachun meant by saying this. He just wanted Emperor Tianqi to hand over the lists of Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces to them. With these people, everything would be done with less effort.  Emperor Tianqi nodded and said: "Okay!  This time Cao Huachun went to Shaanxi and Xu Aiqing went to Shanxi.  I will give part of the list to you two. You can go to He Luo Sigong of the Wei Dynasty and they will give it to you.  " Emperor Tianqi would not do such a thing without directly handing the list to these two people. However, in order for things to go smoothly, Emperor Tianqi can be said to have spent a lot of money. " Just heard Cao Huachun mention the list, Xu Xianchun's face  He also showed joy, but when he saw Emperor Tianqi pondering, Xu Xianchun felt that things might be self-defeating. However, when he heard Emperor Tianqi's answer, Xu Xianchun finally breathed a sigh of relief.  , please express it to your Majesty!  "Xu Xianchun spoke very cryptically. Xu Xianchun would not do something as straightforward as Cao Huachun. Nodding, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Five officials below the third rank, civil servants below the fourth rank, Aiqing can be detained for interrogation.  However, torture cannot be used to extract confessions.  As for how to deal with it, Aiqing needs to give me a secret!  " He breathed a sigh of relief. It would be nice to have some authority. Although Emperor Tianqi only mentioned officials, Xu Xianchun knew very well that there was no need to mention other people. "Okay, you all know the matter, go down and prepare!  The troops are ready for you. They will be waiting for you outside the city and will set off within three days.  I will make you disappear as a secret agent and arrange a decent errand for you on the surface.  " "Yes, Your Majesty!  My lord, I humbly resign!  "The two people did not dare to delay. They bowed respectfully, turned around and left. When the two people went out, Emperor Tianqi leaned on the chair, squinting his eyes and thinking. Is it right to do this, or is he too pressed for time?  Ah! But at this point, we can only take one step at a time. When he heard the footsteps, Emperor Tianqi didn't open his eyes and asked lazily: "What's the matter?  If it's not important, don't bother me!  Seeing that Emperor Tianqi was so tired, Wang Chengen deliberately stopped talking. But thinking of Emperor Tianqi's explanation, he could only bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, Xu Guangqi, the cabinet scholar, is outside asking for an audience!"  " Hearing Xu Guangqi's arrival, Emperor Tianqi was stunned. Thinking of what he had told Xu Guangqi, could it be over so soon? Sitting up, Emperor Tianqi always feltThere was something wrong with his body, but he still managed to gather his energy and said: "Let Xu Aiqing come in!" Looking at Emperor Tianqi with some worry, Wang Chengen found that Emperor Tianqi's face was very ugly, and he was actually a little blue.  He couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and said quickly: "If the emperor is tired, I have to reject Mr. Xu. The emperor should take a rest!" After listening to Wang Chengen's words, Emperor Tianqi seemed to be a little moved, but he still shook his head and said: "  Let Xu Aiqing come in! I may be too tired. I have too many things recently, and I may be too anxious. " "Your Majesty, let Nu Bei go to the imperial doctor! Since the emperor feels uncomfortable, it is better to let someone from the imperial hospital come.  Show it to the emperor, otherwise what will the emperor do with them?" Wang Chengen quickly knelt down and said with a pleading look on his face.  Emperor Tianqi didn't seem to see the worry in Wang Chengen's eyes. He waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. Go and call Xu Aiqing in!" Knowing what he couldn't say, Wang Chengen stood up from the ground and walked outside, looking back from time to time.  Emperor Tianqi.  Xu Guangqi has been waiting outside for a while. He is here today not for firearms, but for the apprentice he has just accepted.  Emperor Tianqi locked Song Yingxing and Song Yingsheng there and ignored them. Xu Guangqi wanted to ask Emperor Tianqi what he was going to do with these two people.  Although the time is not short, the look on Xu Guangqi's face does not show any urgency at all, with an indifferent expression.  He knew that Emperor Tianqi had many affairs, so it was naturally impossible for him to meet him as soon as he came.  Seeing Wang Chengen coming over, Xu Guangqi stood up quickly and straightened his clothes. Of course, this was not for Wang Chengen, but for the Emperor Tianqi who was about to meet him.  But seeing Wang Chengen¡¯s expression, Xu Guangqi suddenly felt something was wrong. Wang Chengen used to smile when he saw him, so why did he become so serious this time?  When Wang Chengen came to his side, Xu Guangqi said with a smile: "Eunuch Wang, has the emperor summoned me?" Looking at Xu Guangqi, Wang Chengen nodded slowly, hesitated slightly, and said: "Master Xu, I have a few words.  We have to tell the adults, I hope you won¡¯t be offended!¡± Seeing Wang Chengen¡¯s worried look, Xu Guangqi also became serious. Wang Chengen is the closest minister to Emperor Tianqi, and no one dares to look down on this man who smiles on weekdays.  Haha, a friendly eunuch.  "Eunuch Wang, please tell me something!" Xu Guangqi was no exception, looking at Wang Chengen with a serious face and said.  "Master Xu, the emperor is not feeling well. He has been busy all day today. When we came out of the house just now, the emperor's complexion was not very good. We wanted to send the imperial doctor to see the emperor, but the emperor insisted on seeing you.  . As a servant, we naturally can¡¯t get involved in politics. I don¡¯t know how important your business is, but for the sake of the emperor¡¯s dragon body, please keep it short.¡± Wang Chengen said.  When he saluted Xu Guangqi, his face was full of sincerity.  After helping Wang Chengen, Xu Guangqi suddenly understood why Emperor Tianqi trusted Wang Chengen so much. His feelings for Emperor Tianqi were sincere.  It's not that he clings to Emperor Tianqi for any reason, but he really has deep feelings for Emperor Tianqi.  Quite moved, Xu Guangqi pulled Wang Chengen and said with a serious face: "Of course I understand your father-in-law's hard work. Your Majesty is the lord of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, there is nothing more important than the health of the dragon body. I will keep the story short and never say anything.  It took too long, please don¡¯t worry, father-in-law. " "Then I would like to thank Master Xu. Please come with me here!" Wang Chengen still had a sad look on his face, and he was determined to find the imperial doctor later.  , Emperor Tianqi was meeting Xu Guangqi in the Forbidden City, but there were people outside the Forbidden City anxiously waiting for news.  This is a small courtyard, located in the slums in the north of the capital. Except for the big willow tree at the door, everything is not very conspicuous.  However, there were several people standing in the courtyard at this time, all of them tall and strong men. Their eyes were constantly looking around, and they had bulging bags on their waists, obviously containing weapons.  In the main house in the backyard, two people stood by the pond in the yard, looking at the fish in the pond calmly, without showing the slightest worry.  "You don't seem to be in a hurry?" The speaker was a young man, holding a paper folding fan in his hand with pictures of mountains and rivers painted on it. It looked like it was made by a master.  Wearing a cyan silk gown and a jade pendant hanging around her waist, she perfectly accentuated the young man's temperament.  The man opposite threw away the fish food in his hand and said with a smile: "We should not be anxious, you are the most anxious. Emperor Tianqi's death will do us no good. With our current strength, we can't do anything.  What¡¯s best for you is the greatest!¡± Although he is dressed in men¡¯s clothing,As soon as she spoke, her identity was revealed. She was a woman disguised as a man.  He looked to be in his thirties, with a faint smile on his face, but a bit of coldness in his brows.  "We are just cooperating. You hope to use our hands to rescue your saint. We hope to kill Emperor Apocalypse. Besides, once Emperor Apocalypse makes a mistake, that is the best chance to rescue your saint." The man seemed quite satisfied.  He didn't agree with it, but still had a faint smile on his face, and said: "But I am very curious, how are you going to assassinate the emperor?" The woman suddenly raised her head, glanced at the man coldly, and said: "Mr. Fan, there is no need for this.  You're in charge. We, the White Lotus Sect, have been able to exist on this land for so long, so we have our own methods. This is not your grassland outside the Great Wall. You'd better listen to me. " "Don't forget, madam, I'm a Han too!"  Mr. Fan trembled, a flash of black energy flashed across his face, and he said rather unhappily.  "Han Chinese? You?" The woman seemed to be even more disdainful. She was not looking at Mr. Fan, and there was disdain in her voice that could not be concealed.  Mr. Fan seemed to be greatly insulted, but before he could speak, there was a sudden roar from outside, followed by the cry of killing.  The two people looked at each other and were both stunned.  At this time, a girl in a light yellow dress ran over, with an anxious look on her face, and said, "The officers and soldiers are here!" Mr. Fan and the woman were both shocked. The woman hesitated for a moment and said, "Follow me.  I'll come!" He said and ran quickly to the house behind.  Outside, Wei Chao, the governor of the East Factory, and Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, stood together, looking at the small courtyard in front of them with serious faces.
