"This…please rest assured, Your Majesty. The three of us are absolutely trustworthy. The person behind us said that after the emperor successfully eliminated Jiang Bin, he is willing to stand up and help the emperor defeat Yang Tinghe!”
"Hehe, is that so?"
Zhu Houjin's eyes darted around as he pondered over Fang Xianfu and the other two's words.
Fang Xianfu and the other two weren't very impressive, but the most important thing was the mysterious person behind them.
Zhu Houjiu could feel that the person behind the three of them was very powerful in the court. Moreover, this person's strategy and wisdom were definitely not inferior to Yang Tinghe and himself. He might even be more powerful than the two of them.
Although this person had said that he would definitely help Zhu Houjiu, whether this person was a friend or foe, and why he had appeared, Zhu Houjiu was still unsure.
This throne of Great Ming was definitely not so easy to sit on. Before seeing this person with his own eyes, Zhu Houjiu would not easily believe him, and he would not risk his future and life to joke with this person.
But now, this person wanted to help Zhu Hou Xin defeat Jiang Bin. There was no doubt about it.
"Very well, I promise you. Fang Xianfu, the three of you, get up!”
"Many thanks, Your Majesty!"
After Fang Xianfu and the other two got up, they were all very excited.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. This time, the three of us are not the only ones standing by your side. There are also many ministers!”
"And there's one more thing that we must tell the emperor. Right now, even the general of Zuo Shun Gate, Wang Xi, is also one of our people. Now that the emperor wants to get rid of Jiang Bin, he can also help us!”
"General of the Left Shun Gate? Hehe, alright!"
After hearing Fang Xianfu and the other two's words, Zhu Houjin's heart leaped with joy, and his eyes shone brightly.
Hehe, if he had the help of the palace guards, it would be even easier for him to defeat Jiang Bin.
At this moment, Zhu Houyi was like an experienced hunter. He had already set up a trap and was waiting for his prey, Jiang Bin, to walk right into it.
Jiang Bin was still clueless at this time, rampaging around the palace without any scruples, but he did not know that Zhu Houjin was already secretly watching him and was prepared to wait for the right time to make his move.
Jiang Bin, come on.
You have been arrogant enough in front of me.
And now, it's time for you to pay the price for your arrogance.
……
Although Jiang Bin's political skills were not as good as Zhu Houzhi and Yang Tinghe, he was not a fool.
During the Zhengde era, Jiang Bin was also a fierce general who had fought on the battlefield for many years.
This time, the many years of bloody battles on the battlefield made Jiang Bin feel a trace of unease.
This was a feeling that Jiang Bin had never felt before. Jiang Bin was very worried about this.
That night, Jiang Bin suddenly had a dream. He dreamed that he had two horns on his head, one yellow and one green.
After Jiang Bin woke up, he was puzzled, so he called the people around him over to ask.
How could Jiang Bin's subordinates dare to offend Jiang Bin? Therefore, he explained to Jiang Bin," Things in the mortal world don't grow horns. This time, Lord Jiang Bin has a horn on his head. It's definitely a sign of promotion!"”
"Is that so?"
Jiang Bin was not a fool. He asked suspiciously,"Since it's Gao Sheng, why are there two horns of different colors?”
"Lord Jiang, we heard that the Qilin's horn is yellow and the rhinoceros's horn is green. This time, Lord Jiang has two auspicious beasts. He will definitely have outstanding achievements and will rise to the top in a few days!”
"Oh, so that's the case. It does make sense!”
After Jiang Bin heard his subordinate's report, he felt slightly comforted. However, Jiang Bin still felt that something was wrong. As for why, Jiang Bin could not say.
Right at this moment, the guards outside reported that Zhu Houjin had arrived. After Jiang Bin heard it, he hurriedly brought people out to welcome Zhu Houjin.
"Your Majesty!"
"Hehe, Lord Jiang, I haven't seen you for many days. I have nothing to do today, so I specially came to the command center to see you!”
"This official thanks the emperor for your concern!"
"Hehe, you're welcome! Lord Jiang, I looked through your resume yesterday and found that you were once the commander of the four prefectures during the Zhengde period. But why did the late emperor remove you from your position?”
"Uh, about that!"
When Jiang Bin heard Zhu Houjin mention this matter to him, he immediately felt that it was very difficult to bring it up.
"Emperor, you are also an understanding person. Do you still not understand the crux of this matter? I, Jiang Bin, had a very good relationship with the late emperor, but there were other villains in the court who caused trouble. That was why I, Jiang Bin, was stripped of my power!”
"Oh, I see!"
The traitor Jiang Bin was referring to was Yang Tinghe. One had to know that when Jiang Bin's power was at its peak, almost all the armies of the Ming Empire were controlled by Jiang Bin alone. This was absolutely intolerable to Yang Tinghe.
Therefore, under Yang Tinghe's hard work, Jiang Bin finally stepped down from the four constabularies and lost all his military power. This matter became an irreconcilable conflict between Jiang Bin and Yang Tinghe.
There were no marshals or generals in the Ming Dynasty. The commander was the highest position in the army, equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the military region. Especially the four commanders-in-chief, they were equivalent to controlling almost all of Ming's troops.
Yang Tinghe had deprived Jiang Bin of such great power. One could imagine how much Jiang Bin hated Yang Tinghe.
"Hehe, so that's what happened. I finally understand now!”
Zhu Houjin's attitude was very kind at this time, which made Jiang Bin have a good impression after seeing it.
"In recent days, Zhen has increasingly felt that if there is no one in the court to help him, his throne will be unstable. Lord Jiang is loyal to the emperor and loves his country. He is definitely my best helper!”
"This Emperor has decided to appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the four prefectures, commanding all the soldiers near the capital! Tomorrow at noon, you will enter the court to hear the news!"
"What? Your Majesty!"
When Jiang Bin heard that Zhu Houjin was going to restore his position as commander, he was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. This time, Jiang Bin wasn't pretending. Jiang Bin was really grateful to Zhu Houjin.
Jiang Bin cared too much about his position as the commander. Now that Zhu Houjiu had returned the position to Jiang Bin, Jiang Bin was extremely touched.
"Don't worry emperor, this lowly official understands your intentions! From now on, this lowly official will be the Emperor's most loyal guard. If anyone dares to touch the Emperor's throne, even if he is the head of the civil officials or the head of the cabinet, this lowly official will still fight to the death with him!”
"Hehe, that's great!"
Zhu Houjin looked at Jiang Bin's tearful appearance and sneered in his heart, but he had a kind expression on his face.
"Lord Jiang, since that's the case, I'll have to rely on you to protect my throne in the future!”
"Don't worry emperor, this lowly official will swear loyalty to the emperor!”
"Alright, then come to the palace at noon tomorrow to accept the title!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After Zhu Houyou comforted Jiang Bin for a while, he left. Jiang Bin was grateful to Zhu Houyou and sent him far away before returning.
When the officials in the command center of the Brocade Guards heard that Jiang Bin was going to be promoted to the commander of the four prefectures, they all came to congratulate Jiang Bin. Jiang Bin felt very happy.
"Haha, I didn't expect last night's dream to come true! Now, I, Jiang Bin, am once again standing at the peak of power. The power of the court has once again returned to my hands!”
When Jiang Bin thought of this, his expression became even more domineering.
Back when Jiang Bin was the commander of the four constabularies, he had enjoyed boundless glory in the court. Even Emperor Zheng De had to be polite to him, not to mention Yang Tinghe, the head of the cabinet and the head of all officials.
Now, Jiang Bin felt that his former glory was about to return. After tomorrow, when his identity was restored, Yang Tinghe would not be able to withstand a single blow from him.
However, although Jiang Bin was very happy and everyone in the command center sincerely congratulated him on his promotion, the uneasiness in his heart did not decrease. Instead, it became stronger and stronger.
"Oh, what's going on? Why do I have such a strange feeling?”
After Jiang Bin pondered for a long time, he could not figure out anything, so he simply did not care.
In any case, he was going to become the commander-in-chief of the four constabularies again tomorrow. At that time, he, Jiang Bin, would be so powerful that he wouldn't care about anything.
At this moment, a dense dark cloud was approaching from afar. Not long after, it began to drizzle in the capital.
The drizzle continued without any signs of stopping. It seemed that the drizzle would continue until tomorrow.
The commoners on the streets of the capital felt the cold air in the air. They could not help but wrap their bodies in their clothes and quickly walked home, closing their doors tightly.
