"I understand, Xu Zengshou is really innocent!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"So, you let Ji Gang kill him!"

"Yes!"

……

Wang Du's face suddenly turned pale, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, he smiled bitterly, "plopped" to the ground, bowed his head and said: "Minister, guilty!" Please punish the emperor! ”

"Wang Du, you bastard!" Zhu Yunwen jumped like thunder, grabbed the pen holder and smashed it at Wang Du, the pen holder smashed on Wang Du's back, the brush spilled all over the ground, Wang Du screamed in a low voice, and said "ten thousand deaths" in his mouth, and he didn't dare to get up.

"Wang Du, you have disappointed me so much!" Zhu Yunwen walked down in front of Wang Du, flew out with a kick, and kicked Wang Du to the ground, Wang Du was caught off guard and was kicked to the ground, but he quickly got up and knelt on the ground, but did not speak.

Liu Zhen and the little eunuch next to him also quickly knelt down and shouted: "The emperor is angry!" The Emperor is angry"

Zhu Yunwen was still angry, panting, and said sharply: "Wang Du, say, why are you doing this?" ”

"The minister is dead, the minister is confused for a while, please ask the emperor to surrender!" Wang Du hesitated slightly, bowed his head and said.

"Okay, I really didn't see it, your Wang Du is really a man, dare to act, don't I dare to kill you?"

"Minister, minister," Wang Du pondered for a long time, and said: "The minister thinks that the emperor is too tolerant of the Xu family, Yan rebelled, Xu Zengshou leaked the information of the court, and his crime should be punished; The emperor pardoned Xu Yihua and ordered her to return home, but she coerced Li Jinglong, Xia Yuanji and others to rebel with the list of rebels in her hand, plus the king of Taiwan, the king of Chu and Feng Xingjian and others, only to set off this major case of rebellion, such a femme fatale, ungrateful woman, it is difficult to forgive her sin in death! In addition, Xu Huizu may not be involved in the case, but he may not be innocent, in this case, His Majesty still wants to protect the Xu family, and Weichen is very puzzled. ”

"Zhang Kai was originally a guard given to Xu Zengshou by Yan Rebellion, after Yan Rebellion was defeated, Xu Zengshou killed Zhang Kai and other four people, but he didn't expect to mishandle it, so Zhang Kai escaped and jumped off the cliff, and was later rescued by the King of Taiwan and taken in, so he was grateful to the King of Tai, but he hated Xu Zengshou to the core, so Wei Chen only hinted slightly, and he immediately deducted the charge to Xu Zengshou, and the minister had a reason to arrest Xu Zengshou."

"Xu Zengshou is just a commoner and doesn't have any official position, so there is no problem in arresting him."

"As for Xu Zengshou's death, the minister only hinted at Ji Gang and Zhang Kai, and as a result, Xu Zengshou really died."

"Your Majesty," Wang Du kowtowed repeatedly: "No matter how Your Majesty surrenders, the minister has no complaints, but now that Xu Zengshou is dead, Xu Huizu should have gotten the news at this time, so he is likely to rebel blatantly." For the sake of safety, Your Majesty must not be guarded against! ”

……

Looking at Wang Du who knelt on the ground and kowtowed, Zhu Yunwen felt very uncomfortable, this was his first strategist, he followed him when he was the prince, loyal to himself, and assisted him in creating martial arts, creating guards, recruiting talents, formulating a strategy for pacifying Yan, and finally quelling the rebellion. For many days and nights, he accompanied him to study the map, discuss the selection of generals, and make strategic decisions...... After a long period of hard work, he was only forty-seven years old, and his hair was already gray......

But Wang Du committed his own rebellion, just like Huang Zicheng before, Huang Zicheng ordered the Investigation Department to plant King Zhou, and as a result, the Investigation Division Feng Xingjian betrayed himself in fear; And the newly formed Security Division, under the hint of Wang Du and in full view of everyone, let Zhang Kai, the prisoner of Qin, kill the son of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, and then plan to force himself to destroy the Xu family.

Of course, Wang Du has another meaning, Zhu Yunwen knows it, but he doesn't want to ask further, otherwise it will involve more, and I am afraid that it will not end in the end.

Zhu Yunwen thought for a moment and quickly conveyed some will:

"Zhao Wei Guogong Xu Huizu will return to Beijing immediately after receiving the order, and there will be no delay!"

"Ling Zhongzhen Bo Song Chengping took over as the director of the Investigation Department, the former director Hu Hu and the deputy director Ji Gang were removed from their posts and imprisoned, and all the guards who went to the Xu Mansion the day before yesterday were also imprisoned and severely tortured together with the Qin prisoner Zhang Kai! I want to know the truth. ”

"Order the Jinyi guard to command Liu Tie to strengthen the garrison of the palace city, and there must be no slackness!"

"Order the Second Guards Army Cao Yushu Department to guard the periphery of the palace city, without the slightest slackness, as long as I give an order, I can be dispatched at any time."

"Order General Xu to defend the city tightly, and those who trespass on the city gate will be killed!"

"Order the Shao Yun Department of the Eighth Guards Army to strengthen its vigilance and guard against a sneak attack!"

……

After the holy decree was issued, Zhu Yunwen suddenly remembered something, and asked Yang Shiqi, who was on duty at the military aircraft, to call over: "Shiqi, how is the situation of the sailor?" ”

"Back to the emperor," Yang Shiqi thought for a moment and arched his hand: "The first royal fleet has reached the river near Pukou and Xiaguan, and General Tan has already written a letter, so there will be no problems with the security of the capital." ”

"In addition, General Zhang Rong led the Fujian Naval Division and the Yangtze River Naval Division to go up the river to pursue the rebel naval division upstream, which, according to Luo Haichao, should be the Dongting Lake Naval Division."

"Where's General Heian?"

"General Ping'an has rushed to Chaohu to make peace with General Tan Yuan and clear the remnants of the rebels in Chaohu!"

"Well, very good, send someone to General Ping'an, don't worry about Chaohu's affairs, just hand it over to Tan Yuan, his task is to rush to Wuchang at full speed, control the family of King Chu and his guards, there are those who resist and kill without mercy, and General Zhang Rong is also under Ping'an moderation!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Send a decree to Cao Yushu, ordering him to put the King of Chu under house arrest in the mansion, not to go out, and if there is any resistance, kill him!"

"Alas!" Zhu Yunwen stroked his forehead: "Liu Zhen, you go to the Zongren Mansion, ask me questions, confirm Zhang Kai's affairs, and ask him to write a confession, and tell him on behalf of me, don't have the slightest luck!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Stand down, all of you!"

"Yes!"

Xie Jin, Yang Shiqi, and Liu Zhen led the order to retreat, and only Wang Du and Zhu Yunwen were left in the Qianqing Palace, the difference was that Wang Du was kneeling and Zhu Yunwen was sitting.

The sky outside was getting darker, and the hall was getting darker and darker, but no one dared to come in without Zhu Yunwen's order.

I don't know how long it took, Zhu Yunwen finally spoke up: "Zizhong, do you know? In fact, the rebellion of the king of Chu and the king of Taiwan this time was just child's play, and the reason why I did not directly arrest them was just to completely eliminate the remnants of the rebellion of the king of Yan last time, and at the same time get a reason to conquer Japan. ”

"I still have a lot to do, so I want to completely whitewash the Xu family, so that Xu Huizu can lead the troops out with peace of mind, but now they are all ruined by you!"

"Although I believe in Xu Huizu, can he believe in me? If he suspects me, then sooner or later he will rebel! ”

"If I destroy the Xu family, although it will be easy, how can Ping'an, Sheng Yong and others not have a grudge? And I don't have the majesty of Emperor Taizu Gao, I'm afraid it will be impossible to conquer the outside world, so I, the rest of my life will have no meaning, do you understand? ”

"Zizhong, I thought you knew about me, but I didn't expect it, alas!"

"What should I do with you now?"

"The ministers deserve to die, and they dare not ask the emperor for forgiveness!" Hearing the sourness and disappointment in the emperor's words, Wang Du couldn't help but feel guilty, knelt on the ground, and couldn't cry!

"Zizhong, I can forgive other things, but the Investigation Department, the Security Department and the Intelligence Department, I don't allow anyone to get involved, otherwise I will become deaf and blind, and you actually used the Security Division to kill Xu Zengshou, I have already cleaned the Investigation Department, do you still want me to clean the Security Division? It has been less than two months since the establishment of the Security Division! Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said with a wry smile.

"Moreover, if I don't deal with you, something similar will inevitably happen again, and at that time, I'm afraid that Daming will be in danger of overturning, and I'm afraid I'm afraid I'll be worried about my life, so I can't afford to take this risk, do you understand?"

"Understood," Wang Du bowed to the ground, weeping bitterly, "the minister is guilty, and he is willing to be punished!" ”

Zhu Yunwen raised his neck, tried to control the tears from flowing out, and said quietly: "Zizhong, you go home and say goodbye to your wife and children." I promise you that I won't be embarrassed for them, so you can rest assured! ”

"Emperor Xie, Emperor Xie!" Wang Du was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of gratitude appeared on his face, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed frequently to thank him.

……

Looking at Wang Du's staggering back, Zhu Yunwen stretched out his hand, intending to open his mouth to call him, but in the end he didn't do anything and put down his hand dejectedly......

In the dark Qianqing Palace, there was a sigh that seemed to be nothing......
