An enemy's enemy is the best ally. When Qian Ning realized that his own strength was not enough to pull Jiang Bin down, choosing an ally was his most reliable choice.

There are many powerful nobles in the capital, but the problem is that these people have no interest in Jiang Bin, maybe they are looking for a way to get in touch with Jiang Bin, and I am so rash to ask for help , isn't it just in line with people's wishes?

So after choosing and choosing, Qian Ning finally put the goal of the alliance on He Jiaan. He, like himself, has a deep hatred with Jiang Bin. Although he is not a big official now, he is in Long Live. There is still great value in their eyes.

When the word Jiang on the table gradually faded away, He Jiaan kept his head down for a long time without saying a word. Even Qian Ning wondered if He Jiaan was afraid and dared not confront Jiang Bin anymore. Your Excellency, have you forgotten the hatred of taking your wife from the West Lake?"

Jiang Bin deliberately chose the things that would most arouse the man's anger in front of He Jiaan. Sure enough, He Jiaan raised his head with his head down, gave him a strange look, and then smiled slightly: "Your Excellency, you don't need to use this." What happened that day has already passed, I just want to think about one more thing, almost everyone in the capital knows about the grievances between me and Jiang Bin, but Mr. Qian, you and him..."

He Jiaan didn't finish the following words, but Qian Ning had already understood the doubt revealed in He Jiaan's eyes. He immediately understood that it was not that He Jiaan was not wary of Jiang Bin, but that he was just doubting his purpose. Jiang Bin teamed up to lie to him.

This is indeed a big problem. After all, in the eyes of others, Jiang Bin's status today is all thanks to his support, but only Qian Ning has a clear mirror in his heart. Ever since Jiang Bin became the emperor, he has never He didn't take himself seriously, even though the two of them can talk a few words after meeting now, who can guarantee that one day he won't take his place instead?

After all, there are many people who envy the position of Commander of Jinyiwei.

Qian Ning nodded slowly and said: "I am also aware of Mr. He's concerns. Mr. He should understand the grievances between Jiang Bin and Qian. Although Jiang Bin is already in charge of everything, if his ambition If it is older, maybe the next target will be my Commander of Jinyiwei, a Qian Ning who is not trusted by the emperor, and Jiang Bin who is favored by the emperor. I think Master He knows who the final choice is. Bar."

Although Qian Ning said so, He Jiaan still didn't believe him. After all, who is Qian Ning?The Commander of Jin Yiwei, the biggest spy chief in the Ming Dynasty, how authentic are his words?These are hard things to say.

However, there is a way to test whether Qian Ning is sincere or not.

He Jiaan turned around suddenly, came to his desk, took out a folded paper from it, and slowly handed it to Qian Ning. He Jiaan smiled and said, "I'm afraid Mr. Qian doesn't know about something."

"What's the matter?" Qian Ning faintly felt that something unexpected would happen.

"The assassins who assassinated me that day have all been caught in the prison of the county government, but there is one person who was not imprisoned together."

"Who?" When he heard that there was still life left, Qian Ning suddenly became excited.

He Jia'an didn't answer, just glanced at the thin piece of paper, and then said: "This is the man's confession. If Mr. Qian really wants to bring down Jiang Bin, the information on it is enough."

Qian Ning took the slip of paper suspiciously, opened it, and quickly browsed through it. When he understood what was written on it, his eyes widened immediately. As expected, he guessed correctly, and the mastermind of this matter was clear. Even Jiang Bin, with this confession and the testimony in He Jiaan's hands, this time he will not be able to bring down Jiang Bin no matter what he says.

When Qian Ning was excited, He Jia'an said, "Lord Qian, don't take it lightly. Now that Jiang Bin is deeply favored by the emperor, and with Gu Dayong helping him, the evidence may still be a little insufficient."

"Then according to Mr. He, what should we do next?" Before he knew it, Qian Ning had completely convinced He Jia'an, even this kind of confession could be made, what else he couldn't get.

A smile suddenly appeared on He Jiaan's face, and he said softly: "Speaking of which, I have something else I want to trouble Mr. Qian with."

The recent changes in the capital can be described by changing circumstances. Perhaps it started with the incident of He Jiaan, then Gu Dayong returned from victory, the four foreign armies entered the capital, the capital was in chaos, and then the big prison in Daxing County was slaughtered. After each big show, it was almost you who sang and I appeared on the stage. Before the people in the capital could react from the massacre in the prison, another earth-shattering news began to spread in the capital.

And this time the protagonist is still the commander-in-chief Gu Dayong in the palace, but this time it is not very good news for him, because rumors have spread outside that Gu Dayong actually committed murder. A good thing.

Killing the good and taking the meritorious service has never been done since ancient times, but everyone who does this kind of thing pays attention to cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots, so there are very few people who reveal their secrets. Everyone just turns a blind eye and closes it. Dayong didn't know why, not only did the news get out, but even the names of the places were well said.

In the eyes of those nobles in the capital, there must be someone behind the scenes to make good use of this kind of thing. The news can be conveyed so accurately, and even the time and place are clearly stated. What does this mean?It shows that people have already made preparations, but they just chose such an opportunity to throw out the news.

From now on, everyone will honestly be a melon-eating crowd and just wait and see the development of the situation.

In less than a day, the news spread almost all over the city. Officials can go to the theater, but this kind of thing is sympathetic to the common people, and the rumors in the market gradually spread.

Naturally, such lively news cannot be concealed from the ears of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. When the censors who were idle looking for trouble heard that the eunuch actually did such an outrageous thing, how could they spare him? I still want to find out about Gu Dayong's problems, but this is great, I handed it directly to myself.

Soon, Xie Tiansheng, the deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, brought the ardent hopes of all the censors to the Leopard Room. After seeing Zhengde, he carefully told the rumors in the market from beginning to end, and at the end I specifically specified the time and place, and with these, I sent someone to check it out.

Seeing Xie Tiansheng coming in, Gu Dayong was still full of disdain. After all, these censors love to make trouble for themselves when they have nothing to do all day long. When Gu Dayong heard that Xie Tiansheng told him that he had committed suicide, he was frightened out of his wits, and without waiting for Zhengde to react, he quickly knelt down After coming down, he kowtowed again and again and said: "Long live Lord Mingjian, Nuli has never done such illegal things."

Chapter 960 Understatement

It's not that you can't do things like killing good people and pretending to be meritorious, but you have to do it seamlessly. If you don't reveal this kind of thing, if someone digs up clues and finds out, it will not only be a blow to your Gu Dayong's reputation, It is also easy to arouse the people's indignation against the imperial court.

Zhengde looked at Gu Dayong who was kneeling at his feet with a livid face, and was so angry in his heart, you said that you are such a smart person, how could you be caught by this little braid?

After staring for a while, Zhengde said quietly: "I just want to ask you, did such a thing happen?"

Gu Dayong quickly raised his head, shook his head firmly and said: "The servant guarantees with the head of the item, there is really no such thing as killing a good person and pretending to be a meritorious service."

"Hehe." Zhengde smiled instead of anger, and after staring at Gu Dayong with cold eyes for a while, he suddenly said slowly: "Since you said no, then prove it to me, and I will give you ten days. If you still can't give an explanation to the people of the whole world within these ten days..."

Zhengde suddenly stopped, and everyone in the palace didn't even dare to take a breath, and then Zhengde's voice sounded faintly again: "Then I will personally give an explanation to the people of the world."

Although Zhengde didn't say how he would give the people an explanation, Gu Dayong could think of it in his mind, what else could he do, of course he would kill himself to calm the hearts of the people in the world.

Thinking of this, Gu Dayong felt chills in his heart for a while, and suddenly a thought burst out involuntarily in his mind, and when this thought arose, he felt more and more that this idea was good, and he suddenly boldly said: "Your Majesty, The servant is going to investigate this matter, it's just..."

"Just what?" Zhengde asked coldly.

"It's just that the slave has no one under his command, and there's no way to investigate if he wants to. So I ask His Majesty to show mercy and borrow some people from the slave."

Zhengde thought that Gu Dayong was right. Since he handed over the military power, only these little eunuchs are left under his control. He can't expect him to take these little eunuchs to investigate this matter, right? , so he nodded and said, "Since this is the case, why don't you go investigate with Qian Ning."

Thanks to Qian Ning not being here, if I heard that I was going to investigate this matter with Gu Dayong, my stomach would hurt from laughing. This matter was originally spread by myself, and I asked myself to investigate myself. Thieves call catch thief.

Gu Dayong quickly shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Qian is currently investigating the case of the Daxing County Prison, and I am afraid it will be difficult to get out."

"That's true." Zhengde nodded. If Qian Ning couldn't do it, who should he send?

Right here, Gu Dayong said again: "This slave has the guts to recommend someone."

"Oh? Who is it?" Zhengde asked curiously.

"The Commander of the Four Foreign Armies, Jiang Bin, is a former general of this slave with superb skills, so this slave wants to ask Commander Jiang to assist this slave with this case."

It turned out that he was talking about Jiang Bin.

As soon as Jiang Bin was mentioned, Zhengde immediately showed a proud expression on his face. It seems that he is not the only one who thinks Jiang Bin is a talent. Even Gu Dayong thinks Jiang Bin is very good. After thinking about it for himself, he nodded and said: " In this case, you go and investigate this matter with Jiang Aiqing, if you can't find out, you know the consequences."

Gu Dayong retreated outside in a cold sweat. When he got outside, he couldn't help raising his head, feeling the warm sunshine above his head. The first thing he thought of was not how to find evidence to prove his innocence, but what he just thought of. that thing.

I am not innocent, others don’t know, I still don’t know, I don’t do this kind of thing once or twice, maybe there will be a few fish that slip through the net, Long Live God let me find it Where should I find evidence to prove my innocence?As long as the ten-day period is up, it will be the moment when his head falls to the ground.

Now the only one who can save him is Jiang Bin, but Gu Dayong still has a little worry in his heart, what if Jiang Bin's ambition is not enough and he dare not respond to him?

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Dayong gritted his teeth and strode out of the palace.

Nominally, the case in Daxing County was jointly investigated by Qian Ning and Jiang Bin, but in fact the main investigator was Qian Ning himself. Jiang Bin didn't ask questions at all, and followed Qian Ning all day long, asking for his opinion. There was nothing, and if he wanted him to do something, he would feel uncomfortable here or there. Qian Ning deliberately pretended to be upset, and just dragged Jiang Bin by his side.

Another day passed, and except for that one clue, nothing else was found at all. The people nearby asked a lot, but they were all at a loss and couldn't even tell any clues. The look on Jiang Bin's face His expression became more and more complacent, and he did not forget to comfort Qian Ning that this case might not be so easy to handle.

Seeing that no clues could be found, Qian Ning planned to go back to rest, but at this moment, Gu Dayong appeared here, and Qian Ning pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Eunuch Gu is here at this time, but what is the emperor's business?" order?"

Gu Dayong shook his head with a slight smile and said, "The emperor didn't have any orders. He just asked Mr. Jiang to deal with one matter with me, so Mr. Jiang will not be able to handle the case with Mr. Qian any more."

"Oh?" Qian Ning blinked in surprise, suddenly looked around cautiously, pulled Gu Da to a place where no one was around, and said softly, "Grandpa Gu, is that true?" ?”

"What is it?" Gu Dayong asked knowingly.
