Zheng Chongjian was a little confused, because he looked at the words and deeds of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, as if he didn't mean to ask the teacher, and more, it seemed that he was just investigating impartially.

Even, he faintly felt a little, how could he look at the commander of the Jinyi Guard, it seemed to be ...... It seems that he still has to make decisions for him.

Does that feel real?

I couldn't figure it out, so I just didn't want to, and seeing that he was outside the gate of the vassal king's mansion, he hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm afraid it's inconvenient here, or let's go ......."

"Your Excellency the Governor, please!" When Li Ruolian heard this, he turned around and stretched out his hand and gestured, "I know that Your Excellency the Governor still has important things to do, and there is no time to delay, so let's talk about it as we go!" ”

Hearing this, Zheng Chongjian understood a little, he definitely didn't ask himself about his teacher, otherwise, he would remind himself that he still had important things to do. Indeed, the matter on the other side of the Hetao has already been sent to the Hetao to negotiate, calculate the time, and rush back as soon as possible to deal with the affairs on the other side of the Hetao.

Thinking like this, he had a little less to worry about, and while walking forward with the command of the Jinyi Guard, he told the story of what happened to him in the Rui Wang's Mansion one by one.

When Zheng Chongjian finished speaking, he found out that this was the temporary garrison of Li Guoqi's army. At the entrance of the barracks, there was a Jinyi guard wearing a flying fish suit standing, and it was obvious that the Jinyi guard should have taken control of this place.

Seeing this situation, Zheng Chongjian was a little confused. Could it be that Jin Yiwei has already arrested Li Guoqi and those troublemakers? The commander of the brocade guard came in person, what was he going to do?

He was thinking about this, but Li Ruolian didn't care what he was thinking, but stood still and glanced at Zheng Chongjian's entourage, and after groaning slightly, he looked at Zheng Chongjian and asked, "Your Excellency Governor, can anyone prove what you said just now?" ”

"Your Excellency, the Lower Officials are present, and they can testify that what the Governor said is true!" An entourage civil official responded immediately, without waiting for Zheng Chongjian's instructions, and his face was particularly angry when he spoke.

In his opinion, the Governor went to announce the decree, but he was treated like this by King Rui, which really disregarded any dignity, which was really infuriating.

Several other guards and officers followed suit, saying that the Governor was exactly what he said, and that they could testify as well.

In the eyes of these warriors, if the commander of the Jinyi Guard could report to the emperor impartially, perhaps because the Governor was humiliated, he would not have punished the Governor. As for the rest, none of them thought about it.

Li Ruolian didn't speak, just listened to what they were saying, and after knowing that they could all testify, his face seemed to be more serious, and he glanced at them again, before turning his head and asking Zheng Chongjian again: "In this case, can you sign and draw a pledge on what you just said to be a real evidence?" ”

"Yes!" At this time, Zheng Chongjian had no other ideas, anyway, he was telling the truth.

As for whether the emperor will believe that King Rui's family is really to the point of eating chaff and vegetables, and King Rui's family is playing tricks like a splash, ignoring the royal decency and making the heavenly family ugly, whether the emperor will blame this kind of thing on him, a courtier, and Li Guoqi's subordinates, he can't grasp it, so he can only resign himself to fate.

Li Ruolian didn't stay any longer when he got the reply, and said "please" casually, and took Zheng Chongjian and them into the barracks and walked to the temporary tent.

In the open space of the barracks, there were about 500 people assembled, all of whom were not armed and guarded by the Jinyi guards. Li Guoqi was also there, and he watched with a worried look at the Jinyi Guard Commander and the Governor coming in together.

Zheng Chongjian didn't have to guess, these soldiers should be the ones who grabbed the land rent. Just look at their yellow and thin faces, and there is still indignation on their faces.

When these military leaders saw that people were coming, they immediately made some commotion, but they were guarded by the guards with swords and brocade clothes, and they did not move, but just shouted in a gossipy.

"Your Excellency the Governor, why don't you pay you food, you will starve to death, and how can you work for the court?"

"Lord Commander, I was really hungry, so I had to grab some food, anyway, there is so much food in Rui Wangfu, and it is not bad for this land rent!"

"My lord, no matter about my general's business, this is what we did privately when we were very hungry!"

“……”

Listening to their shouts, the heads of people in the nearby barracks appeared one by one. Apparently, they had been ordered to stay in their tents. But when I heard the movement, I still poked my head out. It can be seen that the faces of these soldiers are also full of anger. It was only because of military discipline that he did not come out. But it can also be seen that there are individual soldiers who seem to want to rush out.

Seeing this, Li Guoqi shouted loudly and reprimanded those people back, and these people in the open space were also scolded and shut up by him.

Li Ruolian didn't say anything about this situation, but in his heart, he actually still felt a lot of emotion.

If he still felt a little ruthless about what he said to the emperor before, from the situation he saw along the road when he arrived in Qindi, and the scenes he saw in this military camp, he was a little surprised to find that the emperor didn't seem to be wrong, and people like King Rui did that, in fact, it is very likely that these border troops will be forced to the side of the thieves. From a certain point of view, Ruiwang's behavior is indeed defeating the Ming Dynasty. I can't tell the difference between the severity and the severity, such an unwise act, and ending up with King Ning, in fact, is not too wronged.

Although he thought so in his heart, on the surface, Li Ruolian remained silent and just walked towards the Chinese military tent. However, when passing by Li Guoqi's side, he was instructed to follow him in.

Li Guoqi knew in his heart that he was going to be bad, although he would not be convicted for this, but demotion and punishment were indispensable.

After entering the Chinese military tent, he was surprised to find that the Governor had written a long piece of something, and then stamped it with the Governor's seal. and his entourage, civil and military attendants, also went over to sign and draw. Taking advantage of Li Ruolian's inattention, he asked a governor guard standing beside him in a low voice, "What is that?" ”

"What happened to the Governor at the Rui Palace." The guard didn't dare to say more, but simply said a word.

Seeing this, Li Guoqi couldn't help but be curious, and for a while he forgot the punishment he was going to face, thinking in his heart, what happened to the Governor in the Rui Wangfu?

He thought about it, but Li Ruolian carefully checked the thing and carefully put it away.

Then, under the attention of everyone in the Chinese military tent, he suddenly said with a serious face: "Now that there is solid evidence, King Rui colluded with thieves and plotted rebellion. I was ordered by the emperor to arrest King Rui and enter Beijing to ask for the crime. All his family wealth was allocated to the local area to be used to repay the money and grain owed by the army in Qindi. ”

The other people in the military tent were still thinking that the commander of the Jinyi Guard should announce some punishment for the emperor for grabbing land rent, right?

But as soon as Li Ruolian finished speaking, none of them expected that Li Ruolian would actually say that King Rui colluded with thieves to rebel and wanted to raid his house to make up for the arrears of food and salary in the army.

Suddenly, they all thought that they had heard it wrong, and they couldn't help but look at each other, wanting to know what others had heard.

Among them, of course, Zheng Chongjian was also included, he also never expected that Li Ruolian would say that King Rui was plotting rebellion, and after being stunned, he came back to his senses and asked in surprise: "King Rui colluded...... Rogue? Conspiracy? ”

Hearing his words, the others immediately understood that they should have heard correctly. But in this way, they are even more strange, how could this thing suddenly become like this? It shouldn't be!

Although they don't deal with King Rui, it seems impossible for someone like King Rui to collude with thieves, right?

Thinking so in their hearts, they all stared at the commander of the Jinyi Guard, wanting to hear what he said to the Governor's question.

I only heard Li Ruolian say coldly: "King Rui occupies one-third of Hanzhong City, but he resists and disobeys the order, which is one crime; And instead of refusing to exchange the silver stamps and grain stamps of the Ming Royal Bank, King Rui beat Qin Cha, and the crime of complicity and rebellion was the second crime; Now eventful, the previous court difficulties can not pay food, so that the soldiers starving, King Rui, as a descendant of the ancestors, enjoy the glory and wealth of the Ming Dynasty, not only resist the decree, but also want to investigate the evil soldiers, if this is not in collusion with the thieves, can do such a thing, this is not to push my Ming border army into the den of thieves! ”

Speaking of this, he raised his voice and shouted: "The Governor has been exposed, and all kinds of signs can be seen that the King of Rui has the intention of rebellion, and I will search the Rui Palace, and I also ask the Governor to continue to help." How about 500 sergeants outside, how about lending them to me for the time being? ”

When Zheng Chongjian heard this, he was a little dumb: Do you have to expose it yourself? This...... Is this forcibly dragging yourself into the water?

Thinking so, he couldn't help but look at the part he had written again. Then I thought about the crimes that Li Ruolian said just now, and after thinking about it carefully, I couldn't help but feel a little calmer again.

It's like two mouths of the official, and it's not the official master who has the final say. And at the court level, it can also be replaced by the emperor's final say.

What King Rui did, if he was strictly calculated, there would be no problem in charging him with intent to rebel. But if the emperor doesn't care, this matter will be reprimanded at most. Even if the relationship between the emperor and King Rui is good enough, maybe he can still favor him, saying that this is all caused by Li Guoqi's soldiers, blaming Li Guoqi, blaming him, the governor, for not restraining his subordinates.

Zheng Chongjian was born in Jinshi, and he has been in officialdom for many years, and he is in Qindi, one of the parties involved in this incident. As soon as he connected from front to back, he basically understood the general context of the whole thing. It is nothing more than what King Rui did, which is not conducive to the Ming Dynasty, and the emperor is obviously promoting the silver stamps and grain stamps of the Ming Royal Bank in exchange for the vassal king's money and grain to save the emergency. King Rui's selfish behavior hit the emperor's knife.

Kill the chicken and the monkey! Zheng Chongjian dared to guarantee that after searching the Rui Wang's mansion, he would definitely be able to find evidence of the Rui Wang's collusion with the thieves. At this point, he believes that there is no difficulty for Jinyiwei!

Recalling what he had just encountered in the Rui Wangfu and thinking of the current erosive situation in Qindi, Zheng Chongjian couldn't help but shout loudly in his heart: Emperor Shengming!

At this moment, he suddenly had great confidence in quelling the thieves. Half of this confidence comes from the re-understanding of the emperor, and the other half comes from the accumulation of years of the vassal palace.

The other people in the Chinese military tent did not think as deeply as Zheng Chongjian. They are very disgusted with King Rui, and they can even be said to hate it. After hearing the words of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he didn't care if there were other hidden secrets, thinking that King Rui was going to be unlucky, he was very happy. Therefore, one by one, they looked at the Governor, and waited for him to say a word, and without even the Governor's consent, they were eager to try, and the gesture of responding in groups was fully revealed.

When Zheng Chongjian saw this scene, he knew that King Rui was definitely in a catastrophe, so he immediately replied: "The commander is acting on the orders of the emperor, and this official, as the emperor's courtier, should obey his orders!" ”

Li Ruolian listened, nodded and said to Zheng Chongjian: "Then the governor should go and do that important thing first, the emperor is still waiting for the follow-up!" I'll rush over when I'm done dealing with this side of the matter. ”

Zheng Chongjian understood what was going on, and immediately replied: "Okay, then the official will leave someone to assist you, and the official will indeed rush back." ”

Li Ruolian said "um", then approached the excited Li Guoqi and said to him: "Go!" ”

When he arrived outside the Chinese military tent, Li Guoqi couldn't help but shout loudly to the five hundred subordinates: "King Rui is plotting rebellion, Jinyi Wei is arrested by order, and I will help, all of them are ready to go!" ”

As soon as these words were shouted, these soldiers, who were originally waiting for punishment, suddenly became stupid. However, they obviously didn't think much of it, and after being quiet for a while, they heard them "boom", and they immediately "exploded".

Anyway, they knew that King Rui was going to be unlucky, and they should be fine. Such a good thing is really happy!

So, these soldiers responded in a gossipy, some shouted that the emperor was shengming, and some shouted that the brocade guard was powerful, anyway, there were all kinds of words. Jubilantly, it was as if it was about to be celebrated for the New Year.

Hearing the movement here, the soldiers in the military tent stretched out their heads again, and when they saw such a festive situation, they were immediately stupid.

It didn't take long for Li Ruolian to take Jinyiwei's men and Li Guoqi's five hundred soldiers to surround the Ruiwang Mansion.

In the dumbfounded eyes of the people in the Ruiwang Mansion, they began to raid people's homes.

Not to mention, there are far more gold and silver in the Ruiwang Mansion than imagined. This coincides with his reputation in history for not being good for beauty but for money.

In the past, he disobeyed the decree and beat the chincha, and now it has been proved that he is guilty of defrauding the king; Later, Jin Yiwei found out that King Rui's bedroom contained letters with thieves.

Anyway, Ruiwang is finished.

The money and grain seized by the Ruiwang Mansion were distributed as the money and grain owed by the border army on the Hanzhong side. The surplus should also be used for the war in Qindi. All of a sudden, the morale of the border army on the Hanzhong side was much higher than that of the border army in the north, which had already made up the arrears.

Li Ruolian sent someone to escort the dissatisfied Ruiwang family to Jingshi, while he himself rushed to the Guyuan Governor's Mansion.

As a result, the team escorting Ruiwang's family had not gone far from Hanzhong City before something happened.
