Chapter 422: The Emperor

After the emperor came to court, he summoned the twenty ministers who participated in the rectification action to the Yinghua Hall to discuss secretly.

Everyone heard the words that the emperor said in the court today, and they all realized that these words would make Yan Shichong take precautions, so everyone had a sense of solemnity that he was about to go to the battlefield.

The emperor glanced at everyone quietly, and said loudly: "I deliberately let my mouth go out today, but I didn't want you to act next, I changed my mind. ”

Everyone looked at the emperor in great surprise.

Didn't you say that you would start rectifying it in a month?

Yan Jinxuan seemed to understand the emperor's intentions, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The emperor smiled and said, "I am going to do two things immediately: first, send someone to follow Yan Shichong, and I will arrest him immediately if he has taken action recently." 2. I plan to summon the heads of the twenty-two first-level administrative organs of the Ming Kingdom in the form of a meeting and take the opportunity to hold the heads of the twelve ministries under the control of the Yan Party hostage, so that they can confess the matter between Yan Shichong and them. ”

In this way, although Yan Shichong has a gold medal for avoiding death, he can't escape prison, and he doesn't need to use too many people.

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this, and they all said that this was the best way to deal with Yan Shichong so far.

"Then the emperor may have to send someone to follow him as soon as possible." Yan Yunpei said.

Yan Shichong has so many henchmen and so strong action that he has to strengthen his precautions.

"General Du listens to orders." The emperor said.

Du Chenghuan, the secretary of the military department, immediately knelt down to listen to the order.

The emperor looked at him and said, "I will allow you to transfer 30,000 troops, if necessary." You can take them to catch Yan Shichong at any time. ”

After that, he was given a tiger talisman.

"Wechen obeys." Du Chenghuan said busily.

"The people who go to follow him secretly will be arranged by the three princes." The emperor said.

The third prince immediately cleared his throat and said, "I have prepared fifty people, and I will follow him around the clock from tonight onwards. ”

The ministers secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The emperor's move is so beautiful!

"Yan Aiqing, Liu Aiqing, Fu Aiqing, although I have canceled the rectification operation, I still need your full assistance in dealing with Yan Shichong, so you must not relax in the slightest." The emperor looked at these ministers and said.

They hurriedly replied, "Yes." ”

"The two things we are talking about today must not be revealed, otherwise it will backfire." The emperor said to everyone with a serious face.

The ministers naturally understood the powerful relationship in this, so they hurriedly said that they would never reveal anything.

The emperor said, "Then let's talk so much about today, and adjourn the meeting." ”

The ministers hurriedly retreated.

Yan Jinxuan also secretly breathed a sigh of relief after learning the news that he didn't have to take the lead in rectification.

He always remembered what Su Shanyun told him about his previous life, and he felt that it was one thing to be missing, and the most important thing was to live a good life with her. Now that the emperor and the three princes have a way to deal with Yan Shichong. Then he is naturally happy as a courtier.

So his steps towards the palace gate were lighter than ever.

I don't want to get to the door before I get to the door. Hurriedly walked to the carriage.

Thinking that Su Shanyun might still be on the Bailing Temple at this moment, he said to Gu Song: "Let's go to Eldest Son Town." ”

Gu Song was about to catch the horse when he saw a person running in a hurry and said, "Yan Shangshu, there is something to look for in the yamen, please go back." ”

The person who came was a relatively low-ranking official in the Ministry of Industry.

"What's the matter?" Yan Jinxuan asked. And handed him an umbrella from the carriage.

"It's about the flooding in Wutong Town."

Yan Jinxuan thought for a moment. He said to Honka, "Go back to the Yamen." ”

"Yes." Honka immediately turned his horse's head and hurried towards the yamen of the Ministry of Works.

After Yan Jinxuan had dealt with the affairs on the yamen, the sun had already set.

It seems that it is too late to pick up Shanyun.

He and Honka went straight home.

However, when I got home, I realized that Su Shanyun had not returned.

It stands to reason that this point should also be returned. Yan Jinxuan couldn't help but feel nervous, and immediately rushed to Changzi Town with ten entourages.

said that Su Shanyun set off for Changzi Town early this morning, but when she was about to arrive, she encountered a downpour. I had to take shelter from the rain in a dilapidated temple in the suburbs.

The ruined temple is obviously in disrepair, and the tables, chairs, and chairs are all decaying, so everyone can only stand and wait.

Mama Long was worried that the delicate Su Shanyun would not be able to bear it, so she stepped forward several times and asked, "Do you need to go to someone's house nearby to rest?" ”

When they passed through a small village and town, they found that there were several families there, and if Su Shanyun wanted to rest, she could ask her to be sent there by her entourage.

Su Shanyun was bent on asking for a sign, and was not in the mood to rest, so he waved his hand and said, "No, just wait here." ”

Who knew that more than an hour had passed, and the rain had been falling non-stop.

They had to have a snack for lunch.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the rain stopped, so the group began to climb to the Bailing Temple.

Since the road from the foot of the mountain to Bailing Temple is extremely narrow, everyone can only walk to get there.

The mountain road, which has just rained heavily, is wet and muddy, and you can imagine how difficult it is to walk.

Mama Long and Green Lotus carefully escorted Su Shanyun up one after the other.

Halfway up the mountain, everyone's feet and lower clothes were wet with the rain from the grass and branches.

Wet shoes will slip, so the rest of the road will be even more difficult.

That's not all, when they saw that there were still about 300 meters to reach the Bailing Temple, they found that the mountain road in front of them had been washed down by the rain, and it had become a steep and slippery slope.

Because the soil is too loose and slippery, it is impossible to walk over, and it is even more impossible for Su Shanyun, who is pregnant.

"Madame, shall we go back?" Mama Long said hurriedly.

Su Shanyun is a person with a twist in his bones, and even in the face of such a situation, he has never wavered in his determination to go up the mountain.

Either way, the situation had to be analysed on a case-by-case basis, so she looked around and saw dense jungle and steep hillsides, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Go back, ma'am, for your safety." Said one of the attendants.

"yes, there's no way to go this way." Another attendant chimed in.

It's not that they don't want to go, it's that they know it's much more dangerous to go than not to go.

Madame's accident is not something they can afford.

Su Shanyun listened to their words, but was unmoved, she pointed to the jungle on the other side of the slope and said, "Take your sword and open a path from here." ”

"Madame, it's too steep, how can you get up?" Green Lotus was in a hurry.

"As long as you guys help me around, I'll be able to go up." Su Shanyun said calmly.

The crowd did not dare to persuade again, and immediately followed her instructions to open the way.

After about half an hour, the road was opened, but due to the thorny terrain and the steep terrain, it was still very difficult to get up.

It's so hard when you go up, and it's even more difficult when you come down, because the road is so steep that if you're not careful, you'll have to fall straight to the bottom of the mountain.

Everyone was sweating.

However, Su Shanyun's expression was very calm.

When everyone saw her so fearless, they didn't dare to expose their timidity.

For safety reasons, Su Shanyun only asked five extremely skilled attendants to escort her up, leaving the others to wait in the middle of the mountain. (To be continued.) )
