Chapter 233 The Battle between the East Factory and the Imperial Guards



The swordsman named Ding Xiu seemed to be specifically targeting Jin Yichuan.

No matter where the latter goes, the former will follow like a shadow.

One night.

Everyone was resting in a forest.

Jin Yichuan couldn't stand Ding Xiu's stalking any longer and met with him.

The latter carried a long Miao Dao on his shoulder, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and smiled:

"Junior brother, it's been a long time since we last met. You've become a big shot in the Jinyiwei now."

After completing the mission in Quanzhou, Jin Yichuan became a centurion.

This is not a particularly high position in the Jinyiwei.

However, his martial arts skills are also well-known in the entire garrison.

So, calling him a big shot is a bit of a mockery, but also a bit of recognition.

Jin Yichuan lowered his voice and said, "What are you doing here? Are you dissatisfied with your life?"

Ding Xiu said disdainfully, "If you want to kill me, Senior Brother, you'll need several more years of effort."

Jin Yichuan warned: "Do you think our people didn't find you? They just wanted to see what you were planning.

Even some generals in the court would have no choice but to die if they faced the siege of our three hundred Jinyiwei."

Ding Xiu said nonchalantly, “If you wanted to kill me, you wouldn’t come to see me in person.

What's more, if you really dare to do this, I will expose all your affairs and make you take off this Feiyu suit."

When the Jinyiwei was just established, Ying Yuan happened to be on the battlefield.

Naturally, the Jinyiwei also began to investigate the forces in the martial arts world.

They discovered many bandits who were endangering the local area, so they sent people to hunt down these bandits.

At that time, Jin Yichuan was still dependent on Ding Xiu, and the two of them were hunted down by the Jinyiwei.

Later, due to the incomplete system of the Jinyiwei, Jin Yichuan impersonated a Jinyiwei.

After that, he stayed in the Jinyiwei.

Now, the only person who knows this secret is Ding Xiu.

As the Jinyiwei system becomes more and more perfect, it is nothing but a pipe dream to prevent such impersonation from happening again.

When Jin Yichuan heard the threat from his senior brother, he felt angry but dared not speak.

Ding Xiu then got down to business. "I heard that your Jinyiwei, the deer-growing grass you're escorting, are preparing to head to Hangu Pass. Did something happen to the emperor who's leading the expedition in person?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Yichuan frowned deeply, "How did you know about this?"

The matter of Jinyiwei escorting Luhuocao is still top secret at present.

Even among the ministers in the court, only a few could make a rough guess.

Ding Xiu laughed and said, "What? Just because you've become a Jinyiwei, you can be so disrespectful? You haven't answered your senior brother's question yet."

Late at night on the same day that all the Jinyiwei left Xianyang.

Wei Zhongxian then called in Zhao Jingzhong, an expert from the East Factory.

The former took a sip of tea and said slowly: "You should know about the Jinyiwei, right?"

This Zhao Jingzhong was Wei Zhongxian's adopted son. "Father, I just learned that all the Jinyiwei masters have been dispatched. Something big must have happened."

Wei Zhongxian nodded and said, "This Governor heard that the Jinyiwei were going to escort the deer-living grass to Hangu Pass. If nothing unexpected happened, it must be that something happened to His Majesty.

Now that there are no Jinyiwei spies in Xianyang City, we hope you can find a few people to closely monitor the movements of those masters of Jinyiwei.

If necessary, we can grab some deer grass and have it escorted by our East Factory."

Zhao Jingzhong was a smart man and understood Wei Zhongxian's idea in just a moment.

This time, Daji did not enable the East Factory to cooperate with the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but relied entirely on the Embroidered Uniform Guard for many reasons.

First, Wei Zhongxian was a eunuch.

Daji did not want the power of the East Factory, or the eunuch himself, to develop to the point of influencing the government in the future.

Moreover, over the years, the East Factory has always acted in a high-profile manner. After all, Wei Zhongxian is a servant of His Majesty.

Lai Junchen was a minister. To be more specific, Wei Zhongxian was an internal minister, and the former was an external minister.

It would not be a good thing for the court if such eunuchs were allowed to hold too much power.

What's more, the escort of deer grass this time is related to the country's destiny.

Second, the number of masters in the Jinyiwei is indeed greater than that in the Dongchang.

If the two organizations were to cooperate and some unnecessary conflicts arose during the process, it would increase the uncertainty of the safe transportation of deer grass.

3. From the very beginning, Daji said that the Jinyiwei was responsible for external affairs, assassinations between the Jin and Chu countries, intelligence gathering, etc.

For example, transporting deer grass to the border is considered a war.

Of course we have to use the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

But Wei Zhongxian didn't think so.

He was paranoid and believed that the Queen was deliberately suppressing the East Factory.

Once something really happened to the emperor, even if he didn't find a way out for himself, he would have to find a way out for these people in the East Factory.

They took advantage of outsiders to steal the deer grass, or interfered with the Jinyiwei's transportation of the deer grass, and then took the opportunity to steal the deer grass.

The East Factory can be completely removed from this plan.

To the outside world, he could say that it was the people from the East Factory who saw the failure of the Jinyiwei when they were carrying out the plan, so the East Factory completed the plan for the Jinyiwei.

As long as the emperor is alive, he will have a share of the credit for transporting the deer grass.

If the emperor died, Wei Zhongxian could still remain invincible from the perspective of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

If he could not snatch the deer grass, he would be able to know what happened at Hangu Pass at the first time, and then think of some ways to deal with some difficult troubles he might encounter in the future.
