Xie Heng's downfall led to the arrest of many officials associated with him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the following days, Cheng Liangjun, the inspector of the imperial history, showed his skills and carried out a comprehensive and thorough investigation of the officials under the jurisdiction of the entire Kaifeng Prefecture.

Kaifeng Prefecture has 4 states and 28 counties under its jurisdiction, namely Chenzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, and Zhengzhou; Xiangfu County, Chenliu County, Weishi County, Taikang County, etc. There are many officials here, all of whom belong to the forces of the prince Zhu Shaoyang. And because it was inconvenient for Zhu Shaoyang to come forward, many of these officials were in direct contact with Xie Heng.

This time, under Cheng Liangjun's investigation, many people failed to escape the involvement. Among the officials who were found out this time were the magistrates of Chenzhou and Zhengzhou, the judges of Xuzhou, and the magistrates of many counties, which were too numerous to count.

In fact, Cheng Liangjun is a cadre, and his ability is beyond doubt. It's just that the reason why his investigation can be so efficient is mainly due to a list given to him by Xiao Yun, which is a list of suspected officials in Kaifeng Prefecture. And Xiao Yun's list naturally comes from Li Xiuwen's intelligence.

Long before leaving the capital, Cheng Liangjun had already obtained Zhu Youzhen's approval, allowing him to act cheaply. In this way, he was able to act freely. Since the officials of Kaifeng Mansion have been corrupted to this point, he has not shown any mercy and has taken down all these people.

The officials of the Kaifeng government are all in danger. Worried that they would be implicated, they all immediately broke off their relationship with Xie Heng. At this time, they knew that this "iron-faced Cheng Gong" was not in vain.

In contrast, Li Xiuwen lived a very leisurely life, enjoying the leisurely life of his rich young master.

This morning, Li Xiuwen got up early, and now morning exercise has become his habit.

After running the Taoist Pure Yang Formula in his body, Li Xiuwen got up and washed. Then he came to the courtyard and began to practice the Haoran Sword Technique.

With the growth of kung fu, he faintly felt that his body was getting better and better. The body that had been destroyed by the cold poison was now completely repaired.

"I wonder where the master is now?"

Li Xiuwen is very grateful to Lao Dao, if he was not lucky enough to meet Liu Bowen, not to mention that he could have all this today, it is still unknown whether he can save his life.

After the morning exercise, after taking a bath as usual, Li Xiuwen was ready to go to breakfast.

As soon as he sat down and hadn't eaten two bites, Li Xiuwen heard a report from his subordinates that Zhu Shaoye invited him to go to the palace to share breakfast.

"Please share breakfast?"

Li Xiuwen was stunned, a little flattered. I didn't have time to think about it at the moment, so I hurriedly got up and rushed to the palace.

Led by the eunuch who delivered the message from the palace, Li Xiuwen didn't need to show his waist card, and went straight into the gate of the palace.

Then the eunuch led Li Xiuwen all the way in, and walked for a long time without reaching the destination, Li Xiuwen sighed in his heart: "People often say that once you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea, and the scale of the palace this week is probably not much different from the palace in the capital." ”

It is no wonder that this Kaifeng Zhou Palace, probably built on the site of the Song Jin Forbidden City, its scale is magnificent, among all the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, it is also among the best. Among the more than a dozen palaces in Henan, it is ranked first.

"Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road."

Along the way, there are luxurious attractions everywhere. Li Xiuwen lamented the corruption of the elite class, and on the other hand, he longed for such a life.

In fact, his current life can be regarded as a very luxurious. With the financial resources of his Li family, except for the courtyard where he can only live in three entrances, everything else is very luxurious. If you want to buy a house in a big city, you have to struggle for 20 years, during which you can only achieve it by saving money.

"It's a pity, such a mansion can only be lived in by the prince."

When he came to King Zhou's Mansion before, he mostly went directly to Zhu Shaoye's study, and he rarely had the opportunity to visit this palace. Now seeing such a luxurious mansion and the many scenery in this palace, he is really dazzled.

Li Xiuwen is just a young man, no matter how calm his mood is, he has some desires in his heart after all, but he can only think about this kind of thing in his heart, and the crime of trespassing will be punished severely, which is equivalent to rebellion. Of course, he was planning to rebel. But it was not his own rebellion, but the rebellion of Zhu Shaoye.

Just as he was sighing, the eunuch had already led Li Xiuwen to a lake. There is a corridor path on the lake, which leads to a pavilion in the middle of the lake.

Li Xiuwen felt distressed for a while, this is really not a family that doesn't know the price of firewood and rice, such twists and turns, not to mention walking is very tired, and it is a waste of materials! Wouldn't it be possible to go directly?

In the pavilion, Zhu Shaoye's brother and sister were sitting and waiting for him. The eunuch stopped in front of the pavilion and only invited Li Xiuwen in.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Second Prince, the county lord!" Li Xiuwen hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

"You don't have to be polite, get up!" Zhu Shaoye said with a smile.

Li Xiuwen got up and said, "How dare you wait for His Highness and the county lord for a long time?" ”

"It doesn't matter! I've just gotten up, so come and sit down. ”

Zhu Shaoye invited him to sit down during the banquet, and asked with a smile, "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you?" Let's sit down and eat together. ”

Looking at this table full of delicacies, Li Xiuwen also smiled and said, "Just as I was about to have breakfast, His Highness's messenger came over." Naturally, I don't dare to slack off! ”

"Humph! You show such a big shelf, let the county lord sit here and wait for you. ”

Zhu Huaiyu snorted dissatisfiedly, and when he saw the second brother glaring at him, he pursed his lips and stopped talking. In fact, they didn't wait too long, the Li family was not far from the palace, Li Xiuwen rushed over as soon as he received the news, and this breakfast was also prepared by the next person just now. It's just that as soon as she saw Li Xiuwen, she couldn't help but look for his fault.

Li Xiuwen just smiled at this and did not speak. He knew that Zhu Shaoye came to him, and he must have something important to discuss. At this time, the little county lord was present, and it was definitely inconvenient to discuss it in detail.

Li Xiuwen vaguely remembered that the place where they dined should be Longting Lake in the later generations. At this time, Longting Lake is the royal garden belonging to the Zhou Palace.

Surrounded by rockeries and lakes, surrounded by green trees and flowers, handsome men and women dining in the middle of the lake - Li Xiuwen thinks so.

The daily meals of King Zhou's mansion were not as luxurious as Li Xiuwen imagined. It's just that outside, it is only the dignitaries and nobles who can enjoy such delicious food.

After eating breakfast, Zhu Shaoye said to Zhu Huaiyu: "Huaiyu, I'll take Hengzhi around." ”

"Oh! I'll walk with you, too. Zhu Huaiyu responded.

"......" Zhu Shaoye was speechless for a while.

"Humph! What is there that you can't say to me? ”

Zhu Huaiyu looked up and saw Zhu Shaoye's expression, and knew that the second brother wanted to break up with himself. She wrinkled her nose and pursed her mouth to complain, but she didn't stay, got up alone and left. She knew that the second brother had something serious to discuss with Li Xiuwen.

After Zhu Huaiyu left, Zhu Shaoye smiled at Li Xiuwen and said, "Hengzhi hasn't visited the scenery in this palace yet, right?" I'll take you around. ”

"Your Highness Lao!"

Li Xiuwen arched his hand. He knew that after eating the side dishes, Zhu Shaoye was ready to serve a big meal. It's just that he doesn't know what Zhu Shaoye wants to talk to him about today.
