Chapter 94 Lucky Star? [Please give me a monthly ticket! ]
Eh?
Upon hearing this, Liang Yue’s first reaction was... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a really good person.
Because he was short of money, he sent him a lot of jewelry.
Since he was in need of a horse, he immediately sent him a snow-treading dragon colt.
Just when he was lacking a reason and was thinking about how to get involved in the Ministry of Industry's case, he immediately came to him for help.
What's the difference between this and real brothers?
It is not an exaggeration to say that it was timely rain.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is simply a lucky star sent to me by God.
He couldn't help wanting to laugh in his heart, but he had to suppress it on his face so as not to show it too obviously, and his expression looked very subtle.
Seeing this, the prince thought he was hesitating, and said, "Actually, if you don't want to, I can understand. After all, I know that you all regard the fight between the princes as a muddy water. Except for close relatives, who dares to get involved?"
"Sixth brother has Lu Shangshu as his grandfather and the Ministry of Works as his backer, which provides him with a lot of support. His attainments in both civil and military affairs are also much higher than mine. There are always people who think that it is only a matter of time before I lose power."
"If it weren't for this incident, I might have slowly given up hope. I've always been like this. People decide who will be deposed and who will be enthroned, not who I am. But what happened recently has given me some hope."
The prince stood up and walked in front of Liang Yue with a sincere expression.
"The Ministry of Works has always embezzled the national treasury and enriched itself. Lu Yuanwang has been inciting officials and building momentum for my sixth brother for many years. There are too many shady things in between. Even though the Ministry of Justice has been investigating for so long, it can't get to the bottom of it. In the end, it's because my father didn't want to intervene. But now, my father has finally taken action."
"The Babel case has angered my father. Every link involved will be investigated strictly. The knife will definitely stab the Ministry of Industry. It depends on how deep it is stabbed. If the investigation continues, it is not impossible to directly overthrow the current Ministry of Industry."
"Now that the Ministry of Works has collapsed, my sixth brother has nothing to rely on. After all, it is not easy to depose and enthrone the crown prince. He will not have another chance." The crown prince's eyes were bright and every word he said came from the bottom of his heart.
"So now is a critical moment. It is very important to guide the direction of the case. Liang Bandu, you are the only one who can participate in this case and can help me. Moreover, you are upright, brave, and wise. You are the best person to find out the truth behind it. If you can help me this time, I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life."
"Of course, if you insist on refusing, I can understand. It will not affect your future status as the East Palace companion. Let's just pretend that we never said this today..."
"Your Highness!" Liang Yue stood up suddenly and without waiting for him to finish, he firmly grasped the crown prince's small hand.
"Your Highness, there is no need to say more. I can hear your sincerity. Since you are so honest with me, I will also tell the Crown Prince the truth."
"Although the Babel case is a muddy water, and although the Ministry of Works has a strong background that is daunting...but, for the stability of the capital, for the country, for the righteousness in my heart, and for your appreciation and respect, Prince! I am willing to participate in the Babel case and thoroughly investigate the Ministry of Works for the prince!" Liang Yue said this passionately.
"Great!" The prince also held his hand tightly, "I knew you were an upright and brave man!"
He turned around excitedly, "I want to swear blood oath with you and become your brother!"
"No, no, no, Prince, this is not appropriate." Liang Yue hurriedly advised.
Good guy.
The little fat boy is still a passionate person.
He said solemnly: "I am willing to continue to participate in this case for the prince, but I cannot guarantee how far I can investigate and whether I can find out the result the prince wants. But the prince can believe that I will definitely do my best to expose the darkness of the Ministry of Industry to the public!"
Liang Yue said goodbye and left only after finalizing the details of the joint investigation.
The prince escorted him out of the main hall and watched his back disappear into the courtyard. He was moved and said, "It would be of no benefit to him to participate in the Ministry of Works case, but it would be very risky. He was still willing to help me. He is truly a hero!"
The eunuch Wu Huaili behind him laughed softly and said, "Perhaps Liang Bandu is the lucky star bestowed by God on the prince."
……
The palace wall is so deep that I don’t know how deep it is.
It was not until Liang Yue led the BMW out of the imperial city and walked a short distance away that he felt the fresh and noisy atmosphere of life again.
He climbed onto the horse and tapped its belly gently, and it immediately spread out its four hooves and started to jump.
The handsome young man, dressed in official clothes, riding a horse that looks like dark clouds and snow, attracts people's attention wherever he goes. It is a picture of youthful pride and spring breeze.
The only flaw in this picture is probably that the horse looks a little sleepy, with its head hanging and looking listless.
Maybe Tianjie is not a place for him to gallop, Liang Yue thought, he could take it out of the city in the future to see how fast it is to travel 8,000 miles a day.
This horse is worth quite a lot of money.
It’s not that it is so valuable, but the prince gave me the horse in exchange for having me involved in the Tower of Babel and the Ministry of Works case again for him, which is tantamount to going through fire and water.
It's a life-threatening job.
If this didn't happen to fit his own needs, Liang Yue would never have wanted Ma, let alone helped him do this.
I can only say it was a coincidence, we just came together like that.
The reason why the Tower of Babel case is so daunting is not only because it is too complicated and risky, but also because there is another tricky aspect - the main force investigating this case is the Yinma Prison, and he can only cooperate with them.
This force is notoriously terrifying...
The predecessor of the Yinmajian was a secret spy in the palace, whose job was to monitor all officials for the emperor.
Not only the officials in the Divine Capital, but also the officials in the nine provinces and the generals in the four military garrisons, as long as they have real power, they will be monitored by secret spies, otherwise the emperor will not be able to rest assured.
Such spies living in the shadows have always existed in every dynasty. It was not until the reign of Emperor Mu Bei that he fought against Jiu Yang in the early days of his reign, when intelligence gathering became extremely important. Emperor Mu Bei gathered all the spies from Jiuzhou in one place and spread them around the battlefield to gather military intelligence. These skilled workers did play an important role.
In the most crucial battle of Tianxia, the God of War Tang Wei used a dangerous march, using the army formation where Mu Beidi was located as bait to lure a large number of Jiuyang troops to encircle them.
The main force of Yin Dynasty secretly attacked Tianxia Pass and finally captured it in one fell swoop.
Using the emperor as bait, this kind of method is probably only Tang Wei in the world who dares to use it, and only Emperor Mu Bei dares to cooperate with it.
That battle was truly fraught with danger. If Emperor Mu Bei was really swallowed up, then even if the Yin army captured Tianxia Pass, it would be useless and the war would inevitably be lost.
But Mu Beidi managed to escape.
When the army was in danger, Jiang Zhenye, a descendant of a poor royal family, was only a cavalry general in the middle army. At that time, the Nine-Yarn Golden Hook Master shot nine golden hooks at Mu Beidi, and the protectors of Yin Dynasty only blocked eight. The last one was about to capture Mu Beidi, but Jiang Zhenye blocked it with his body, was pierced, and then fixed the last golden hook with his chest flesh and blood!
After the war, Jiang Zhenye was crowned king and given the title Ding Gou in recognition of his contribution in saving the situation.
But the danger did not end there. While Mu Beidi was escaping with serious injuries, he was caught up by the Winged Fire Demon Cavalry of the Jiuyang Fire Snake Tribe, and all the guards around him were shot dead.
Only the chief eunuch Cao Wujiuhu rode on the same horse with the emperor, holding Emperor Mu Bei in his arms and blocking more than ten poisonous arrows with his back.
They fled all the way to the Yinma River in the northwest before they were able to completely escape the enemy. Cao Wujiu put Mu Beidi on the ground and went to the river alone to clean his wounds. Mu Beidi happened to open his eyes at this time and saw the wounds all over Cao Wujiu's back, and was deeply moved.
After returning to the Divine Capital, Emperor Mu Bei gathered all the spies together and re-established a new spy agency, covering Kyushu and overseas countries, with a wider scope, greater influence, and higher power.
And this institution is called the Drinking Horse Supervisor.
The reason for this name is that the person in charge of it is Cao Wujiu, who risked his life to save the emperor by the Yinma River.
It is said that every court official has a thick stack of files in the Yinma Prison. Normally, the secret spies in the prison are not very obvious, but once they show up and take action, they will immediately be above all other government offices and their methods will be cruel and brutal.
Therefore, everyone in the court hated and feared these people, and the voices of "the eunuch party is harming the country" never stopped.
Logically speaking, the current functions of the Zhuxie Yamen should have been the responsibility of the Yinmajian, but it was very good at surveillance, espionage, and assassination because these did not require cooperation with the court officials.
They were not able to do a good job in finding the Nine-Yang Spies, a task that required cooperation with various government offices...mainly because other government offices were too resistant to the Yinmajian and were unwilling to cooperate with them.
This is how the Evil-Slaying Department came into being.
Although the other departments did not like the Evil Punishment Department very much, compared with the Drinking Horse Bureau, the Evil Punishment Department actually seemed amiable.
This shows how much hatred the Yinmajian had.
And Liang Yue is about to work with these "eunuchs".
When I think about it, I feel a little nervous.
……
He walked slowly back home, tied the horse outside the door, and when he pushed the door open, he saw a lot of bricks piled inside. Liang Peng and his mother were building a wall.
"You're back." Li Caiyun greeted, "Xiaopeng has an idea. It will look a bit strange if we raise the wall hastily. It's time for us to buy a horse. We can just build a stable in the yard to cover the tree."
"That's a good idea." Liang Yue praised.
"Actually, there are still some flaws." Liang Peng wiped his hands and said, "It's okay that the tree is this tall now. If it grows taller in the future, this stable will have to be built bigger than the house we live in... It's a bit strange that horses live in more luxurious places than humans. But it's okay to fool people for a while."
"If it's a horse gifted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, isn't it normal?" Liang Yue smiled slightly and led the lazy spirit horse in.
His family's idea of building a stable really coincided with his. A wall was used to separate a space in the stable to frame the Enlightenment Tree, which just blocked the view, and the rest of the space was still used to raise horses.
Although this will make the open space in the yard very small, it doesn't matter.
As the horse entered the house, it snorted, then suddenly stared, straightened its head, and became alert.
"Oh." Li Caiyun said in surprise, "The Crown Prince gave you such a good horse?"
"After all, it was my brother who saved his life," Liang Peng said.
"It just so happens that you are here." Liang Yue said with a smile, "I don't know what to call it yet, so you, a student of the academy, can give it a name."
"Okay." Liang Peng agreed, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "The ancients once wrote poems praising this scene of dark clouds stepping on snow. It is said that the vast desert sky is full of spiritual beauty, and the dark clouds step on the snow without a trace. Why not take one word from each and call it... Big Black!"
"..." Liang Yue was silent for a moment.
You are still reciting poems and quoting classics, and I thought you were trying to show off your literary talent.
I thought it was going to be a show, but it turned out to be a huge one.
Li Caiyun beside her couldn't help but say, "Xiaopeng, I'm not saying anything bad about you, I don't understand poetry. But when we lived in the countryside, eight out of ten dogs in the village had this name, and the remaining two were because of their different colors."
Liang Peng's expression froze for a moment, then he turned around and said, "I'll go see my sister."
"Then let's just call him Dahei." Liang Yue smiled and asked, "How is Xiaoyun?"
Li Caiyun showed a trace of worry, "I'm still dizzy. I've asked several doctors to see me, but they couldn't find out what's wrong with me. I don't know what to do."
Upon hearing this, Liang Yue's brows slowly gathered.
