"Your Majesty, Yang Lian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate asks to see you." Chen Hong walked to Zhu Youxiao's side and said softly.

For Chen Hong, who knows everything that has happened, Chen Hong knows very well what Yang Lian's arrival means.

Yang Lian is really here, which means that Yang Lian really wants to protect Yao Zongwen and others, which means that Yang Lian chose to stand on the opposite side of His Majesty.

Of course, Chen Hong didn't know what His Majesty in his family thought, and he didn't know in his heart whether His Majesty really wanted to punish Yao Zongwen and others.

Compared with Chen Hong's cautiousness, Zhu Youxiao's expression did not change in the slightest, and he said directly: "Let him come in!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chen Hong said yes and went out.

After bringing Yang Lian in again, Chen Hong beckoned the other palace people to go out.

"Minister Yang Lian, see Your Majesty." Yang Lian respectfully saluted Zhu Youxiao.

"Excuse me!" Zhu Youxiao said softly, looking Yang Lian up and down at the same time, and then asked with a smile: "But there is a result in the case of framing Xiong Tingbi?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it is this case that has come to an end." Yang Lian said directly: "This is the minister's court trial record and question book. Yang Lian said and picked up the interrogation record and question book.

Chen Hong hurriedly walked to Yang Lian's side, took the question book and interrogation record, walked up the steps with both hands, came to Zhu Youxiao's side, and respectfully presented the interrogation record and question book to Zhu Youxiao.

Stretched out his hand and picked up Yang Lian's question book, as for the interrogation record, Zhu Youxiao didn't read it first, because after every court trial, Wei Zhongxian would hand over a court trial record. Although Wei Zhongxian and Yang Lian did not deal with each other, he would not be stupid enough to falsify the court trial records.

Zhu Youxiao wanted to read Yang Lian's question book, and wanted to see what Yang Lian would say.

Looking at Yang Lian's question book, Zhu Youxiao's expression did not show joy or anger, and he didn't seem to be touched, but he already knew what was in it.

In this inscription, Yang Lian wrote very clearly that the case of Yao Zongwen and others framing Xiong Tingbi was completely false, and it was the reason why Wei Zhongxian framed it. From beginning to end, this case was concocted by Wei Zhongxian, and Yang Lian also impeached Wei Zhongxian at the back of the inscription, asking His Majesty to severely punish Wei Zhongxian and find out the case of Wei Zhongxian framing Yao Zongwen and others.

Zhu Youxiao slowly closed the question book, nodded slightly, and said lightly: "Okay, I know." ”

Hearing this, both Chen Hong and Yang Lian were stunned.

That's it?

A sentence of "I know", and then it is gone?

"Is there anything else Yang Aiqing has to do?"

At this time, Zhu Youxiao's voice sounded again, and he raised his head to look at Yang Lian, as if he was a little puzzled.

Hearing this, Yang Lian's heart sank, and he hurriedly said, "Back to Your Majesty, there is nothing else to do." ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded, and then said with a smile: "Since Aiqing is fine, let's step back first!" “

"Yes, the minister retired." Yang Lian agreed, no longer stayed, and turned around very simply and walked outside, the expression on his face became solemn.

His Majesty didn't get angry and didn't ask, obviously this situation was somewhat unexpected by Yang Lian.

In Yang Lian's opinion, things seem to have gotten very bad.

After Yang Lian left, Zhu Youxiao looked at Chen Hong and said softly: "Let the cabinet draw up a decree, and Zou Yuanbiao, the left capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, will thoroughly investigate and frame the case of Xiong Tingbi, and the three divisions will try it." ”

"Yes." Chen Hong didn't know why in his heart, and hurriedly agreed.

When Chen Hong left, Zhu Youxiao leaned back and leaned lazily on the couch, with no expression on his face, no joy or anger.

The news of the trial of the three divisions soon came out, and many people secretly rejoiced in their hearts, sure enough, His Majesty did not remove Yang Lian, but did not punish him, but used Zou Yuanbiao.

In the eyes of many people, this is not only His Majesty's belief in Yang Lian's rhetoric, but also means that His Majesty cannot retreat.

So many people began to rush up, handed the question book into the palace, and impeached Wei Zhongxian.

Of course, Xiong Tingbi was not spared here, and someone had already begun to piggyback Xiong Tingbi and Wei Zhongxian together.

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the question book in front of him, smiled lightly, and then threw the question book on the table: "Sure enough, you have to inch in!" ”

Some people, if you retreat, they may not think that you are seeking peace, but that you are weak. They are more likely to have the idea of "since you are retreating, then I am going further".

"The greed of the human heart never ends!" Zhu Youxiao stood up and stretched his waist, and after moving his muscles for a while, he said with a little self-deprecation: "The Donglin Party still has a bit of party meaning, at least they have one thing in common with the capitalist parties of later generations, that is, they all hope to have an emperor who makes a tablet. ”

Chen Hong, who was following Zhu Youxiao, didn't dare to say a word, the expression on his face was tense, he knew that something was going to happen.

Who is Your Majesty?

The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!

The emperor has such thoughts about some people, so what will be the result?

Chen Hong doesn't think that His Majesty is good-looking, although His Majesty is very young, maybe those people just see His Majesty young and secretly stumble.

But Chen Hong knows how ruthless His Majesty's hand is, and this one has never been taboo about killing.

"Chen Hong, let people urge Luo Sigong, why hasn't that Chen Kedao come yet?" Zhu Youxiao said with a frown.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chen Hong hurriedly agreed.

Soon Chen Hong returned.

However, he had an anxious look on his face, and went straight to Zhu Youxiao's side, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Liaodong has come to play secretly, and Xue Guoyong, the governor of Liaodong, has died." ”

Zhu Youxiao was stunned for a moment, Xue Guoyong died?

Why did he die?

A thought flashed through Zhu Youxiao's mind, it couldn't be Xiong Tingbi who killed him, right?

But it's unlikely to think about it, Xiong Tingbi has such a big courage?

"Your Majesty, this is the secret music of the eunuchs guarding Liaodong Town." Chen Hong hurriedly presented the secret recital.

Zhu Youxiao took the secret music and took a look, it was very clear that Xue Guoyong was indeed dead, but he was not killed by Xiong Tingbi, but he died of illness.

As for what kind of illness took Xue Guoyong's life, it is not very clear what is written on it, only that it is infected with wind and cold, and then died violently.

Handing the secret music to Chen Hong, Colonel Zhu You chuckled lightly and said, "Let the cabinet send someone to Liaodong to cook for Xue Guoyong's funeral." ”

This is the proper meaning, the court members died of illness in office, and the court must send someone to take care of the funeral, so as to show the emperor's benevolence and righteousness.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong hurriedly agreed.

"Let the cabinet draw up a list of successors to the governor of Liaodong." Zhu Youxiao thought about it and then added.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chen Hong bowed down again and replied, then bowed and quickly retreated.

It came so suddenly.

Whether it was Zhu Youxiao or the ministers of the court, no one expected this.

Everyone's energy shifted in an instant.
