Although the early spring in the capital is cold to the bone, it can still make people feel the breath of the revival of all things.

On the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Yan family came to pay New Year's greetings.

Now in the chaotic period when the whereabouts of the six princes are unknown, these loyal and virtuous ministers want to gather together in time to try to turn the situation around. In terms of prestige, ability, and insight, they all feel that Yan Yunpei is the most qualified to be the leader.

Among those who came today were Zhang Qian and Liu Qingchi, scholars of the Cabinet University, Du Chenghuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Shen Jiahui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Zhou Jun, Pu Guanglu, Fang Shiqin, the temple secretary, and Shangguan Xiong, the priest of the Guozi.

These seven people made an appointment early, so they came quietly, and after arriving at the Yan Mansion, they went to Hemingxuan with the Yan family father and son to discuss secretly.

Since they all came on horseback in casual clothes, their horses were also placed in the stables in time by the Yan family's family, so that outsiders could not see that there were guests from the Yan Mansion at all.

After they entered the Heming Xuan, Mrs. Lu went to the gate of the Yan Mansion and instructed the doorman: "If there are important guests coming, it is also said that Lord Yan has gone out to pay New Year's greetings, and let them come back another day." ”

Mending should be again and again.

In the Heming Xuan, the eleven people sat down and began to discuss.

"What the emperor is most afraid of now is that one day the six princes will lead the troops to attack, so they have sent elite soldiers to guard all border passes, and strive not to let go of any suspicious people." Du Chenghuan, the secretary of the military department, said.

He was in charge of the military of the whole country, so all of this work was carried out with his approval and surveillance, so he could be sure that there were no six princes under his command at the moment.

On the night when the six princes absconded, the emperor ordered the city gates of all provinces and cities to be strictly controlled and sent people to search for them all over the country, but there was no harvest for four months. Isn't that strange?" Shangguan Xiong said.

"I think there are two possibilities: either suicide or disguise." Fang Shiqin said.

"The fact that he was able to abscond soon after the emperor's arrest warrant proves that he has installed someone in the palace, and that person should still be in the palace now. In addition, it is very likely that he had opened up a joint with the doorman of a certain city gate beforehand, otherwise he would not have been able to get out so easily. Of course, there is also a possibility that he is still in the capital, but he is still alive with another face and another identity, if this last assumption is true, then the emperor will be in danger at any time. Yan Jinxuan said.

Everyone was shocked, but they had to admit that there was such a possibility, so they looked at Yan Jinxuan and asked, "Yan Shilang has a way to find him?"

Because if you can find out the six princes. The emperor will definitely be rewarded and promoted. This is an excellent opportunity to increase the power to resist the Yan Party.

"The bell still needs to be tied to the bell, as long as the person he is placed in the palace can be found out, and the person who can know the emperor's daily conversation in time must be the person around the emperor, so we can start from the emperor's personal guard father-in-law and palace maid." Yan Jinxuan said again.

Everyone nodded their heads.

"However, since the incident of the six princes, the emperor has killed most of the previous personal guards, fathers-in-law and palace maids." Fang Shiqin added.

"As the saying goes, Skynet is magnificent but not leaky. What has happened must have a clue to follow. Even if we kill people, we can investigate them from people they know. So I'll leave this matter to me, but don't tell the slightest bit about it. Yan Jinxuan said.

"Nature," everyone said in unison.

Yan Jinxuan also took action to solve the matter of the Seventh Prince last year, so they have every reason to believe that he can find out about this matter.

"It's a pity that the head of the household is not here. Otherwise, you can ask him to help check the population information of various places and see if you can find the suspect from it. Shen Jiahui said.

"He estimates that he will not return to Beijing until the fifth or sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and I will talk to him personally when he comes back." Yan Yunpei said.

"Scholar Yan, I heard that Yan Shichong's disciples have more than 500 people, do you want to recruit some too" Fang Shiqin asked Yan Yunpei.

"No, I've never liked to blatantly build my own organization." Yan Yunpei said with a light smile.

"Do you know that the imperial envoy Yang Zhao impeached Yan Shichong and his party for accepting bribes from officials in private?" Shangguan Xiong asked Yan Jinxuan.

"As soon as I come back, I will know, I think now is not the time for us to openly oppose Yan Shichong, it is better for him to become more and more arrogant, and we will first secretly grasp his guilt, and when the public anger he has caused reaches a certain level, it will be time for us to take action." Yan Jinxuan said again.

"Yes, there was a big chance of winning at that time." Zhou Junpu said busily.

"However, we are not doing nothing in this process, we need to pay close attention to their movements, and we must also effectively unite and strengthen our team, so it is very important that the military department must not let Yan Shichong's henchmen enter." Yan Jinxuan said while looking at Du Chenghuan.

"Yan Shilang, don't worry, I will never let such a thing happen with me in the military department." Du Chenghuan said immediately.

"So fortunately, at the beginning, Yan Shilang strongly recommended you to be the secretary of the military department, if this military power fell into the hands of Yan Shichong, the situation would be very different." Shangguan Xiong said with a smile.

"Indeed, the slightest mistake is a thousand miles, and in this situation, you can't even take a wrong step." Liu Qingchi, who had been silent, said slowly.

"Now Situ Yuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, has also been slowly co-opted by Yan Shichong, so the three departments of the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War must unite no matter what, and they must not give Yan a chance to invade." Fang Duan's face was also awe-inspiring.

"It's nature." The crowd shouted again.

"Therefore, when Su Zizhao, the head of the household department, returns to Beijing, we should immediately get together again." Zhang Qian proposed.

"Yes." Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Jin Hao, you have to join forces closely with Lord Su," Yan Yunpei said as he looked at his eldest son.

"Daddy, don't worry, Master Su and I have always been on good terms." Yan Jinhao, who is the left attendant of the household department, said busily.

After this discussion, everyone's hearts are tighter.

As a result of the consensus, everyone's panic subsided a lot, and they moved on to a lighter topic.

"I really don't understand, Yan Shichong is now an extremely human minister, how can he be so dissatisfied." Shangguan Xiong shook his head and said.

"The human heart is a bottomless pit, he just can't stop." Yan Yunpei said with a wry smile.

Yan Yunpei saw the shadows of some historical figures in Yan Shichong's body, and was inspired by them, knowing that it was impossible for people to dominate everything, so he chose to take the opposite path from him. To be continued
