As Li Zicheng took the order, about half an hour later, Xu Chu escorted a middle-aged man with a big belly to the court.

The man's expression was a little frightened at the moment, obviously frightened.

When Zhu Hao saw this man, he knew needless to say that this person was the person Ai Zhao in Li Zicheng's mouth.

This Ai Zhao didn't wait for Zhu Hao to ask, so he knelt down on the court, begging for mercy again and again, Zhu Hao frowned slightly when he saw this, and asked:

"Ai Zhao, Li Hongji sued you for colluding with the county order to kill his father and occupy his mother, this king asked you if you have this matter?"

Although Ai Zhao was trembling at the moment, when he heard Zhu Hao's words, he shook his head again and again:

"If you go back to Your Highness, there is no such thing!"

"This is a false accusation!"

Zhu Hao heard this: "Huh? After a while, he looked at Li Zicheng and asked:

"This Ai Zhao said that you are falsely accused, what explanation do you have?"

Li Zicheng listened to Zhu Hao's question, looked at Ai Zhao with a resentful face, gritted his teeth and said:

"Ai Zhao, you villain, today is your death, and you can't deny it!"

Li Zicheng spoke, hugged his fists at Zhu Hao, and then continued:

"Please give the prince an order, let the little one go and search Ai Zhao's mansion, the little widow is still in Ai Zhao's mansion, and His Royal Highness will find out when he searches!"

Zhu Hao listened to Li Zicheng's words, and was about to order a search of Ai Zhao's mansion, but before Zhu Hao's words could be exported, Ai Zhao spoke:

"Your Highness, Li Hongji'er, it's a complete false accusation, Your Highness, you can't listen to it and believe it!"

"If there is no evidence, you will search the student's mansion, won't it chill the hearts of the world's scholars!"

Zhu Hao listened to Ai Zhao's words, raised his eyebrows slightly, and was very dissatisfied with Ai Zhao's big hat for him, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but he didn't want Ai Zhao to speak again:

"Your Highness, do you know that this Li Hongji owes the student fifty taels of silver, and he went to His Highness to complain, completely because he wanted to repay the debt!"

"The student has an IOU in his hand, and it is now presented to His Highness!"

"I hope Your Highness will see clearly!"

Zhu Hao listened to Ai Zhao's words, looked suspicious, first asked people, took Ai Zhao out of his arms, and handed over the IOU, after Zhu Hao read the IOU, he looked at Li Zicheng and saw what Li Zicheng said.

After a while, Zhu Hao looked at it, Li Zicheng just stared at Ai Zhao angrily, and did not answer his question, and frowned with a smile in his hand:

"Li Hongji, what Ai Zhao said is true?"

"Is it you who framed Ai Zhao because of the debt?"

"Don't tell the truth yet!"

Li Zicheng listened to the sound of the startled wood slapping the table, and immediately turned around, and then hurriedly said:

"Your Highness, that's not the case, these fifty taels of silver are a small hush money from Ai Zhao!"

"He hopes that the little one, with these fifty taels of silver, will not sue him again!"

"Because the little one didn't have the money in his hand to go out to avenge his grievances, he agreed to his conditions with the snake first!"

"The IOU in his hand is afraid that the small one will regret it, and he will force the small one to write it down!"

Zhu Hao listened to Li Zicheng's words, looked at Ai Zhao, and then asked:

"Ai Zhao, is this what happened?"

Ai Zhao listened to Zhu Hao's inquiry, was speechless for a while, and then opened his mouth to deny it.

Zhu Hao looked at Ai Zhao's performance, and basically knew in his heart, knowing that Ai Zhao was quibbling, and then Zhu Hao stood up and said:

"Ai Zhao, you just said that this king has no evidence, and searching your mansion will chill the hearts of scholars all over the world!"

"If the king of Ben personally goes to your house as a guest, is it considered a grace to the scholars of the world?"

"This king wants to be a guest in your mansion now, Ai Zhao, you won't refuse this king, right?"

Zhu Hao said this, it was called a guest, but it was actually a search, he was thinking about Liaodong and conscription, and he really didn't want to waste time in Mizhi.

Ai Zhao listened to Zhu Hao's words, how could he not know Zhu Hao's purpose, but Zhu Hao said that he did not dare to refuse, so he could only reluctantly take Zhu Hao and his party back to the mansion.

After Zhu Hao and his entourage arrived at Ai Zhao's mansion, Zhu Hao gave Li Zicheng and Xu Chu a look, and asked the two to look for Li Zicheng's widowed mother.

Faced with the ironclad facts, Ai Zhao softened, and after Ai Zhao confessed, Mizhi County Ling Wang Dong also pleaded guilty.

After Zhu Hao asked the two to sign and draw, he asked Xu Chu to escort the two to the Shaanxi Political Envoy Division, and asked Shaanxi Political Envoy Tao Ran to personally deal with the two.

In fact, according to Zhu Hao's temper, he is now eager to directly execute the two of them, but after all, he is not a Qincha, nor does he have the power to governor Shaanxi, he can't meddle in local affairs.

This time he came to Mizhi to deal with Li Zicheng's matter, and he had already done something out of line.

If he executes two more people, it will make those courtiers who are not against him take the opportunity to impeach, which will put his eldest brother under a lot of pressure.

Zhu Hao didn't want to see such a situation, so he could only send people to the Shaanxi Political Envoy Division.

After dealing with the small episode of rice fat, Zhu Hao took Li Zicheng and Xu Chu back to Yansui.

At the same time, in order to prevent it, Zhu Hao officially gave Li Zicheng's original name Li Hongji in the future, and officially changed his name to Li Zicheng.

After Zhu Hao returned to Yansui, he began to send messengers to order the provinces to stop the training of recruits and go to Yansui to assemble, during which the recruitment of soldiers and horses in the provinces had far exceeded 200,000.

This made Zhu Hao already win, and he made a bet with Du Wenhuan before, but Zhu Hao did not embarrass Du Wenhuan, and the new recruits made the original ordnance of Yansui, as well as some newly built.

Zhu Hao urgently transferred some from Liaodong, and at this moment, Zhu Hao's more than 200,000 recruits were already armed to the teeth.

After receiving Zhu Hao's order, the conscription generals of various provinces gathered their troops and marched towards Yansui, and half a month later, more than 200,000 horses were assembled under Yansui City.

After Zhu Hao set up camp with the soldiers and horses, he summoned the generals in Yansui and deployed them.

Zhu Hao looked at the generals who were in the dust, first bowed slightly to a few people, and then said:

"Generals, it's been a hard time!"

After Zhu Hao finished speaking, all the generals returned the salute, and after Zhu Hao sat down on the main seat, he said:

"Okay, now that Yu Chongming is rebelling in Chongqing, this king is going to use him to train his troops, generals, first report on the recruitment of troops in various prefectures!"

After Zhu Hao's words were finished, Xu Chu took the lead and said:

"The last general, Xu Kang, was ordered by His Royal Highness to recruit troops near Yansui, and now 83,000 troops are being recruited!"

Xu Chu said and took out a book, and then continued:

"This is the roster of soldiers, please take a look at it!"

Zhu Hao nodded slightly at Xu Chu, asked the guards behind him to hand him the roster, opened it and checked it briefly, and then said:

"General Xu has worked hard!"
