Chapter 533: Kill One if You Find One
Geng Jing was urgently summoned to the palace and met the emperor in the imperial study.
When he saw Pan Yucheng was there, he was stunned!
When he saw Emperor Xuan's gloomy face, his heart skipped a beat.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"
Emperor Xuan said, "Pan Yucheng, tell me the story again!"
"Your Majesty, I obey your order!"
Pan Yucheng told the story of Yueying Army again.
Geng Jing's face changed drastically after hearing it.
Yueying Army has disappeared for more than ten years, and the files have been sealed. How come it has appeared again?
No wonder His Majesty looks so bad.
"Geng Jing, did you hear clearly?"
"I heard clearly!"
Emperor Xuan said coldly: "From now on, the Supervisory Department has only one task, to track down the Yueying Army at all costs... Kill one if you find one!"
Geng Jing's heart trembled, "I obey your order!"
Emperor Xuan was silent for a long time, and then spoke again: "If you find someone involved with the Yueying Army, below the third rank, I allow you to kill first and report later... Above the third rank, all will be detained and wait for my order."
"I will issue an order to let the Weilong Army, the City Defense Army, and the Imperial Guards assist the Supervisory Department!"
Geng Jing hurriedly said: "I receive the order!"
"You can leave, the matter of the Yueying Army must be dealt with strictly and quickly."
Geng Jing and Pan Yucheng received the order.
"I'll take my leave!"
When Pan Yucheng left, he winked at Eunuch Quan.
Eunuch Quan thought for a while, looked at Emperor Xuan, and said: "Your Majesty, can I go out for a while?"
"Go!"
Eunuch Quan came outside and Pan Yucheng was waiting for him.
Pan Yucheng said, "Eunuch Quan, Ning Chen asked me to tell you to strengthen the protection around His Majesty... In an emergency, Ning Chen said that you know what to do?"
Eunuch Quan thought about it and understood what Ning Chen meant, and nodded slightly.
"Is Mr. Ning okay?"
Pan Yucheng nodded, "Very good!"
"That's good!" Eunuch Quan took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve, "Pan Jinyi, please help me pass this to Ning Chen."
Pan Yucheng was stunned, "This???"
"He has lost his official position, his salary, and he still runs a nursery, which costs a lot... These are what he used to give to me, I saved them for him, please help me pass them to him."
Pan Yucheng nodded, "Okay, I will definitely hand them over to Ning Chen in person... Then I'll take my leave first!"
After Pan Yucheng left, Eunuch Quan suddenly slapped his forehead and muttered, "Look at my brain, how could I forget that this kid also has a fairy dew wine shop? He doesn't lack money at all, I was careless, I was careless...!"
Eunuch Quan returned to the imperial study.
Emperor Xuan glanced at him and his eyes returned to the memorial.
After a while, Emperor Xuan glanced at Eunuch Quan, "The tea is cold, change it!"
"Yes!"
Eunuch Quan changed Emperor Xuan's cup of tea.
Emperor Xuan took a sip and frowned, "It's too hot, change it to a warm cup."
"Yes, I'll change it right away."
Eunuch Quan changed another warm cup.
Emperor Xuan took a sip, "This warm tea has no taste, let's change it back to hot?"
Eunuch Quan: "???"
"Your Majesty, do you have anything to ask me?"
Emperor Xuan glanced at him, "I have something to ask you?"
"I dare to ask your Majesty, do you want to ask Mr. Ning?"
Emperor Xuan's face was stern, "He betrayed my trust and Huai'an... Now the relationship between the monarch and the minister is over, why should I ask him?"
Eunuch Quan thought to himself, if I don't want to ask Ning Chen, why are you bothering me?
"Then I'll get you a cup of hot tea."
Emperor Xuan coughed a few times and said with a straight face: "Quan Sheng, is this Supervisory Department my Supervisory Department?"
Eunuch Quan was slightly startled, "Of course!"
Emperor Xuan said in a deep voice: "The Supervisory Department supervises all officials and cannot get too close to them, right?"
"Yes!"
"But I see you are very close to Pan Yucheng? Are you planning something?"
Eunuch Quan was startled and thought, if you want to ask about Ning Chen's situation, just ask, why scare me?
"Your Majesty, I dare not... I did talk to Pan Jinyi a few words just now, but Ning Chen asked Pan Jinyi to bring a few words to me."
Emperor Xuan did not say a word.
Eunuch Quan continued, "Ning Chen asked Pan Jinyi to tell me to improve the defense around you... He is worried that the Yueying Army will harm your majesty!"
The corner of Emperor Xuan's mouth slightly raised, but soon restrained, snorting, "The relationship between him and me is over, and he doesn't need to worry about my affairs."
Eunuch Quan rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, Ning Chen has no power and no position now. Should I take back the house he lives in?"
"Yes, of course I will take it back!" Emperor Xuan looked at the memorial and said, "I will take it back when I finish the work at hand... Go, change a cup of hot tea."
Eunuch Quan smiled secretly in his heart, and he was still busy with the work at hand. It seems that this work at hand will never be finished.
On the other side, Pan Yucheng and Geng Jing came outside the palace.
Geng Jing looked at Pan Yucheng, "How dare you not tell me about such a big thing as Yueying Army and go straight to the emperor... You are overstepping your authority."
Pan Yucheng shrugged, "Don't blame me, blame Ning Chen."
Geng Jing's face was stern, "He has no official position now, I am your boss."
Pan Yucheng smiled and said, "Maybe not soon!"
Geng Jing's face changed, "What do you mean?"
"I quit!"
Geng Jing frowned, "You want to leave with Ning Chen?"
Pan Yucheng nodded.
"Are you worried about revenge?"
Pan Yucheng hummed!
Geng Jing said: "Old Pan, you and I have been colleagues for so long. As long as I am here, I can definitely guarantee that you will be fine."
Pan Yucheng smiled, "Fear of revenge is only one of the reasons. In fact, the most important reason is that this capital is boring without Ning Chen!"
"I am tired of being in the Supervisory Department for so long. I have long wanted to go out and see the magnificent mountains and rivers."
Geng Jing looked awkward, "We entered the Supervisory Department at the same time and have been colleagues for so long... In your heart, am I not as good as Ning Chen?"
"Old Geng, you are as important as Ning Chen in my heart... but you are not as interesting as Ning Chen."
Geng Jing's mouth twitched.
Pan Yucheng said seriously: "Old Geng, you are also very close to Ning Chen. With His Majesty here, you will always be valued. If the new emperor ascends the throne, your life will probably not be easy."
"As a purple-clothed man, you have offended countless people over the years. You should also think of a way out for yourself... If you figure it out one day, you can come to us."
Geng Jing sighed and nodded slightly.
"Let's go, take me to see Ning Chen... He has fought with the Yueying Army and knows the situation best."
Pan Yucheng said: "Ning Chen's current situation is not very good. If you get too close to him, you may be targeted."
Geng Jing smiled and said: "You still don't know your majesty very well. Your majesty's words of "at all costs" are to remind me to find Ning Chen and ask Ning Chen for help."
At this time, Ning Chen was being beaten.
General Chen was leaning on a cane in one hand and holding a feather duster in the other, chasing Ning Chen all over the yard.
Ning Chen looked back while running, fearing that the old general would fall...It was really too difficult for him!
"You bastard, you are blinded by lust. As the king of Daxuan Town and a first-rank general, you actually went to have a child with the Empress of Wu? Are there no women in Daxuan?"
"You have failed His Majesty and the Ninth Princess. I will beat your ass today."
"You three, hold this stinky boy down for me."
Feng Qizhen, Gao Ziping, and Chen Chong, who were watching the show nearby, looked at each other and said in unison: "Understood! Don't worry, old general, I will never let him run away."
