Originally, Xu Guangqi wanted to see if he could help, but at this moment, he knew that there was no way to help with this matter.

Yan Shenggong was so stupid, he was sold by Xu Xianchun for the whole thing. Even if the facts are told, it is useless.

The jade pendant that was given to Xu Xianchun, and the letter is there, and he promised to give Xu Xianchun 200,000 taels of silver, but I can't say it clearly.

If you don't have a weak heart, then why do you do it?

There is no way to prove your innocence.

Xu Guangqi calmed down, stood up, looked at Kong Yinzhi and said slowly: "Yan Shenggong, Your Majesty has a will. ”

After hearing this, Kong Yinzhi hurriedly knelt on the ground, his heart was cold.

He knew that his final result was coming, and he understood by looking at Xu Guangqi's appearance that this result was not very good.

Looking at Kong Yinzhi who was kneeling on the ground, Xu Guangqi said slowly: "Remove the title of Yan Sheng Gong and go to prison pending trial." ”

There was no part of reading the holy decree, because Zhu Youxiao did not have any holy decree at all, but just explained such a sentence. Xu Guangqi conveyed this sentence to Kong Yinzhi, and this was enough.

Kong Yinzhi heard that he was going to be dismissed, and he collapsed directly to the ground.

He has just taken over the title of Yansheng Duke, and now he has lost this title?

Kong Yinzhi's entire mind was already blank.

I'm sorry for my ancestors, what kind of results will I get?

It's too late to think about that.

Xu Guangqi didn't look at Kong Yinzhi either, turned his head and walked to the door, and said to the Jinyi guard standing outside, "Take it away." ”

After saying this, Xu Guangqi walked out directly and didn't stay at all.

Because there is no point in this matter anymore, it is already too late to do so at this point.

Out of the door of the small courtyard, Xu Guangqi sighed.

He was very worried in his heart, and he didn't know what His Majesty thought. If His Majesty really has follow-up thoughts, Xu Guangqi is still very relieved in his heart; If Your Majesty is only angry for a moment, I'm afraid things will be very troublesome.

Although he has been under His Majesty's hands for so long and has some understanding of His Majesty, Xu Guangqi is still worried.

After all, His Majesty is young now, and the word young and vigorous is not spoken. Now that things have come to this point, all I can do is do my best to maintain it.

Glancing at Xu Xianchun who was guarding the gate of the small courtyard, Xu Guangqi couldn't hide the disgust on his face.

Obviously, this time it was Xu Xianchun who dug a pit for Kong Yinzhi. If it weren't for the pit dug by Xu Xianchun, things wouldn't have come to this point.

However, Xu Guangqi also knew in his heart that he had no way to say anything about Xu Xianchun. Xu Xianchun did this, and His Majesty was happy. It's useless to say anything yourself.

But there is one thing that Xu Guangqi still has to say.

He took a step forward, came to Xu Xianchun's side and said, "Lord Xu, the person has been arrested, and I am afraid it will cause a lot of movement next." This matter cannot be involved in any way, Your Majesty, if anyone makes a fuss, you can push it on me. ”

"I accompanied His Majesty out of Beijing this time, and I can't escape the blame for such a thing. His Majesty has also handed over this case to me, so no matter what it is, it is my idea and I am doing it. Do you understand? ”

After hearing this, Xu Xianchun was stunned, and the expression on his face became serious.

He understood what Xu Guangqi was going to do. Xu Guangqi is to take the responsibility on his own person.

Xu Guangqi has damaged His Majesty's reputation, even if it will make trouble out of control in the future, as long as His Majesty cleans up Xu Guangqi, he will be able to appease people's hearts.

As for why Xu Xianchun is not used, the reason is very simple. Because Xu Xianchun is Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and his reputation is very bad for so many years.

Even if Xu Xianchun is allowed to take the blame, it will damage His Majesty's reputation. It is also a bad reputation for His Majesty to say that His Majesty favors Jinyiwei.

But Xu Guangqi is different, he is a civil official, if he is responsible for this matter, the pressure on His Majesty from outside will be much less.

However, Xu Guangqi's reputation may not be good, and he may not be arranged outside. Some people have said before that he is a traitor, and this time I am afraid he will not be able to turn over.

Xu Xianchun looked at Xu Guangqi, bowed slowly and said, "Xu Ge is righteous. ”

Glancing at Xu Xianchun, Xu Guangqi said expressionlessly: "It's not because of you." ”

After saying this, Xu Guangqi did not stay any longer, but turned around and walked outside.

His gait was firm, but his back was slightly hunched.

The affairs of Jining City quickly settled down, but it was just to arrest some people, and no one dared to make a fuss. Nine-zero look

The current law and order in Jining City is very good, the city is full of brocade guards, and the army led by Qi Jin is everywhere. There is not even a splash on the side of the street, and no one cares if someone makes a fuss and breaks his leg.

Xu Guangqi is not worried about Jining, but outside.

Yuncheng, Xujiazhuang.

The atmosphere in Xujiazhuang was tense.

Since the news of Jining City came, Xujiazhuang has entered a very nervous state. As the news came one by one, it became even more tense here.

In the center of Xujiazhuang, there is a big house, which is Xu Hongru's residence.

At this time, Xu Hongru was walking back and forth anxiously in the house, and the expression on his face was also frightened. Looking at the people coming and going outside, I was a little overwhelmed for a while.

I was going to rebel in August this year, but who would have thought that something would suddenly happen.

Xu Hongru has not prepared anything so far, there is not enough military rations, and there are not enough manpower arrangements. Under such circumstances, if you rashly rebel, there is only a dead end.

The only thing Xu Hongru can do now is to wait for news and see if things can be reversed.

It was at this time that footsteps sounded outside.

A young man walked in from outside, and after seeing Xu Hongru, he said in a somewhat urgent tone: "The official army has left Nanjing City, and the brocade guards in various places have also moved. ”

Hearing this, Xu Hongru's face became even more gloomy, but he didn't have the impatience just now.

Before it happens, people are always frightened, and there are a lot of thoughts in their hearts. But when things really happened, people calmed down.

Xu Hongru at this time is in this state.

He looked up at the young man and said, "We can't wait any longer. ”

"Good sage, now that the matter has come to an end, we will start immediately. The Dog Emperor is in Jining, as long as we can take Jining. We'll be able to do it. So get ready to get your hands dirty, can't stop any longer! ”

Listening to Xu Hongru's words, Wang Haoxian's face was ugly, and he said with some anger: "I really don't know what the people in Jining City think." Are they eating screwed? The assassination of the Dog Emperor also exposed us all, which is simply stupid! ”

Hearing Wang Haoxian's words, Xu Hongru's face was also ugly, and he cursed and said, "Who would have thought that the people of King Lu's Mansion would do bad things. Those people resold grain themselves, and after being discovered by the Dog Emperor, they actually wanted to assassinate the Dog Emperor. Those who are greedy for life and afraid of death! They're dead, but it's a pity that we're ruined. ”

"Let's not talk about that." Xu Hongru waved his hand and said, "Go and mobilize people immediately, and we'll do it quickly." Maybe this time is also a good thing, and it may be a blessing in disguise. ”

"After all, the Dog Emperor is perverse in Shandong, and many people can't stand it. Those officials involved in the reselling of grain must also be panicked at this time, and you immediately send people to persuade them to side with us. As soon as the army arrived, it was supposed to surrender to Kaesong. ”

"Tell them not to follow us to a dead end; There is still a way to survive with us. When we take down the Dog Emperor, these people are all founding heroes, and we will not treat them badly. ”

After hearing this, Wang Haoxian nodded and said, "I'll arrange it right away." ”

"There's one more thing I want to tell you." Wang Haoxian thought for a while and continued: "The Dog Emperor seems to be a member of the Kong family, many of the Kong family's shops have been seized, and their food has also been lost by the imperial court. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Xu Hongru stood up and said with some excitement.

"Yes, the news just came." Wang Haoxian nodded, and said in a firm tone: "It is indeed true and credible, the Dog Emperor is indeed doing this." ”

"What a godsend!" Xu Hongru clapped his hands excitedly and said, "Is Yan Shenggong still in Jining?" ”

"It's in Jining!" Wang Haoxian gritted his teeth and said, "We may be able to do something." ”

"Something must be done." Xu Hongru thought about it, and finally said excitedly: "Let people release the news, just say that Yan Shenggong has been arrested by the Dog Emperor, and he will be beheaded immediately, the reason is the matter of selling grain this time." Use this matter to scare and scare those dog officials, and let them follow us to do it. ”

Wang Haoxian nodded, and said with a calm face: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away." In addition, I will ask people to inquire about the news of Jining City as soon as possible, and see how the Dog Emperor arranged for Yan Shenggong. ”

"If you've already been caught, it's better. We should get up as soon as possible, and then march into Qufu. If we can get the Kong family in Qufu to stand on our side, we will have a better chance of winning. ”

Xu Hongru nodded and said, "You go and do it immediately." ”

At the same time, outside the city of Jinan.

The group has arrived.

Zhao Yan looked at Jinan City, and the feeling in his heart was a little complicated.

A few days ago, he received a summons from His Majesty, asking him to go to Jining City to meet him. He didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly ran away. When he was still 60 miles away from Jining City, he met Chen Sihai of the Supervision Department of the General Administration Department of the Imperial Court.

Zhao Yan didn't even see His Majesty's face, so he was stopped by Chen Sihai, and then ran to Jinan City with him, making Zhao Yan tired all the way.

However, Zhao Yan didn't dare to complain, and now Shandong is about to turn the sky upside down. Jinyiwei arrested people everywhere, sealed shops, and confiscated grain.

The whole of Shandong is panicked.
