Wang Zhen leaned lazily on the chair in the hall of the celebrant supervisor, picked up the bowl and blew on the teacup, closed his eyes and savored the fragrance of the tea, and then slowly took a sip and enjoyed it very much.

When he was reminiscing about the joy brought by the tea, Wan Gui walked in from outside, stood beside him and shouted respectfully: "Godfather, Xiao Qianhu is waiting outside!" ”

Wang Zhen closed his eyes and did not respond to the words, still enjoying this rare relaxation, just like the inspiration of the literati's writing, at the moment, the magic of this tea to the generation is fleeting, Wang Zhen is easily unwilling to wake up, Wan Gui on the side has followed Wang Zhen for many years, knowing that he is in the "fugue" and does not dare to urge, standing quietly and waiting.

After a long time, Wang Zhencai came back to his senses, slowly opened his glasses, and said slowly: "You go and ask Commander Xiao to come in, and if you have something to do, you don't have to come in and stay by your side." ”

"Hey, my son knows." Wan Gui knew that there were some things that he was inconvenient to listen to, so he bowed down and exited the room to call Xiao Qianjun.

In about a moment, someone entered the hall of the celebrant and the celebrant who came with a tiger on his back and a steady step, a pair of deep eyes like an eagle soaring in the sky, as long as the prey moved a little, he could hit with one blow, this person was Xiao Qianjun, the commander of the Jinyi Guard.

Seeing that Wang Zhen was sitting and waiting for him, he strode in and came to Wang Zhen and saluted: "The commander of the Jinyi Guard has made Xiao Qianjun see the adult. "Although he is also highly valued by the emperor, the celebrant is still faintly superior.

"Well, here, let's take a seat," Wang Zhen said politely.

"I will thank you." Xiao Qianjun said and sat down on the chair closest to him.

After sitting down, Xiao Qianjun clasped his fists and asked, "I don't know what the adults will order to come." "Even if Jin Yiwei waved his fingers, he already knew about this, but sometimes it was better to pretend to be stupid, and there was no good fruit to eat if the edge was too exposed.

Wang Zhen said slowly: "Just now in the Qianqing Palace, I have already told the emperor that the Jinyi guard found the "Yuan Ji", and the emperor was furious after hearing it, and he immediately wanted to investigate this matter thoroughly, and he had already passed down a decree telling me to order the whole country to search for the 'villains' and not to leave them out. ”

"The last will obey." Xiao Qianjun got up and saluted Wang Zhen with a fist: "Factory Father, may I ask if the emperor still has a will, if there is no will, the general will send someone to handle this matter." ”

Seeing Xiao Qianjun interrupting his words, Wang Zhen's face was displeased, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Commander Xiao, haven't I finished talking yet, are you in such a hurry, if the errand is broken, will you blame me for not being clear about the order, or blame you for not obeying the order." Just a "big hat" was buttoned up to Xiao Qianjun.

Frightened, Xiao Qianjun hurriedly apologized and said: "Where the lower officials are rude and their words collide, I hope that the factory will not remember the villain." ”

Seeing Xiao Qianjun apologize, Wang Zhen naturally didn't want to do things too much, and said with a smile: "Okay, I don't blame you, it's common for soldiers to be in a hurry, and they can't learn from their civil officials and go around and around." ”

After easing the atmosphere, Wang Zhen said again: "Who made this book, it is estimated that it cannot be found, its intentions are very sinister, and it must have been taken precautions a long time ago." ”

"Yes, we have investigated this book in the two capitals and thirteen provinces, but we have not found who published it, especially in the area south of the Yangtze River, and we have not found it, which is the incompetence of the general." Xiao Qianjun told the truth one by one since he had recently found out.

"Commander Xiao, you don't have to be presumptuous, if you hadn't discovered this matter earlier, you might have made some 'moths', and you would have done a great job in nipping things in the bud", Xiao Qianjun was relieved, Wang Zhen continued: "The emperor's will is that all those who have read this book will be arrested and interrogated strictly, and those who refuse to admit their guilt and resist will be killed, of course, you must not kill innocent people indiscriminately, and those who have nothing to do with this matter will not be punished, this matter is very widely implicated, and you must be careful not to provoke a popular uprising." Saying that, a hint of surprise flashed on Wang Zhen's face.

"The last will understand." Xiao Qianjun responded sonorously.

The will has been conveyed, Wang Zhen opened his mouth to send the guest off: "Hurry up and do this matter, and deal with it flexibly and adaptably, okay, the emperor's will is all you can do quickly!" ”

Xiao Qianjun still didn't have the intention of getting up to leave, Wang Zhen said strangely when he saw this: "Commander Xiao, the will has been conveyed, you can get up and run an errand." He told again: "The emperor is concerned about this matter, you must not be lazy, you should know better than me what the end of Long Yan's anger is."

"There is something unclear about the lower officials, please make it public." Xiao Qianjun pretended to be confused and deliberately asked a question, and probed the tone to avoid any mistakes.

Wang Zhen said patiently: "It's okay, if you have a problem, just ask don't mess up the errand, and you won't be able to get out of it when the time comes." ”

"The lower officials dare to ask whether the family property confiscated by the factory public will be included in the household department or confiscated into the inner court?" Xiao Qianjun felt helpless about how to dispose of the confiscated family property, and judging from the information he had, there were many people in the thirteen provinces of the two capitals who had come into contact with this "Yuan Ji", and the confiscated family wealth must be a large amount, so he had to ask a few words at the risk of being scolded.

Wang Zhen's eyes widened angrily and said angrily: "Xiao commanded you to be on an errand in Jinyiwei for some time, why do you go back more and more, there are some things that should be asked, and some things that should not be asked, and I want to explain it to you clearly?" You can figure it out for yourself. ”

Xiao Qianjun hurriedly apologized and said: "The factory official is angry, it is the lower official who is stupid, and the lower official knows what to do when the factory official mentions it, and the lower official will leave." Xiao Qianjun unconsciously wiped the sweat on his face when he exited the door of the celebrant supervisor, although Wang Zhen did not give a direct answer, but looking at his angry appearance, he knew that he must have entered the inner court.

"It's better to scold a few words than to settle accounts after the autumn, this matter can be big or small to be 'evidence-based', and it is worth it to see some clues after being scolded for a few sentences." Xiao Qianjun comforted himself.

Wang Zhen looked at Xiao Qianjun's distant figure and thought: "Playing with me is still a little tender, I don't know what to do with such a large amount of property, I don't know what to do with such a large amount of property, and I don't have a door to let me take responsibility for the words from my mouth, anyway, they are all pretending to be confused from top to bottom." He shook his head and sighed again and was upset for a while, and when he saw the hot tea still on the table, he was in a better mood and took a sip and then tasted the unpleasant joy.

In the Qianqing Palace, seeing that the Ming Dynasty was about to set off a killing, Yang Shiqi was worried, and said with his mouth: "Your Majesty, the first emperor's 'burning books and pit Confucianism' is vivid, and this move is afraid that it will set off a 'text prison' in my Ming Dynasty There is no such precedent, words, words also, Emperor Taizu set up a science to encourage officials to speak freely, and the same is true for the people, and now the nationwide arrest of Daxing Prison is bound to cause panic, everyone is in danger of my Ming Dynasty may not be a blessing, please think twice!" ”

"Elder Yang Ge, you don't have to say much, you have already made up your mind, 'I am old, and I am old.' Folk cultivation of ancestral halls, so that the ancestors will always be blessed, they cherish and respect the ancestors, why don't they cherish my ancestors, now the people's customs are corrupt, and the morality has plummeted. On the shore of the land, it is not that the king's ministers' I only kill those who make trouble, and the elder of the pavilion does not need to say much. Xuanzong was very indignant, apparently having made up his mind.

Yang Shiqi argued: "Your Majesty, as the old saying goes, 'the mouth of the people is better than the defense of Sichuan', and the officials and the people do not know how many deaths and injuries are generated!" It is better for the emperor to inform the provinces of the holy decree, one is a warning, if this wind is still not gone, it is not too late to ask the emperor when he falls, the emperor is merciful, and it is not easy to give him a chance to change his life because of the people's livelihood. ”

"I don't know that people's livelihood is not easy, you see that this Qianqing Palace has not been repaired for several years, and my concubines have not been rewarded by me for several years. Speaking of the prison that was going to rise up in the Ming Dynasty, Xuanzong was also very uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, having said that, you have not issued a holy decree and have been arrested nationwide by the hundred officials and courts, and the law of the Ming Dynasty is not in accordance with it." Yang Shiqi really had no choice but to carry out the civil and military officials, in order to block the emperor's determination.

Xuanzong said angrily: "This country is my country, do I have to get permission from the cabinet to deal with a few 'criminals'?" Who is this country for? Besides, I have already ordered Wang Zhen to do this, do you want me to take back my order? After a series of reprimands, the matter has reached the point where there is no room for maneuver.

Although Xuanzong was furious, Yang Shiqi was still unwilling to give up, after all, this was a matter related to countless lives, and bowed down and said: "The minister doesn't dare, the minister is just ......."

Seeing that he was going to continue, Xuanzong interrupted Yang Shiqi's words and said, "I am a little tired today, you can step down." ”

"Your Majesty." Yang Shiqi almost pleaded.

"Stand down, I'm tired." Xuanzong turned his body around and turned his back to Yang Shiqi.

"The minister retired." Yang Shiqi originally wanted to fight to save the bloody storm that was about to be staged, but seeing that Xuanzong's anger had reached the point of no return, he knew that it would be useless to fight any longer, so he was afraid that it would only backfire if he continued to talk about it, so he bowed down and withdrew.

The dragon died when he touched it, and Yang Shiqi outside the Qianqing Palace sighed: "Hey......... It is another catastrophe, and I hope that fewer people will be implicated. Saying that, a sense of powerlessness struck, and the whole person instantly aged a lot, and slowly left the Qianqing Palace.

In the inner room of the celebrant supervisor, Wang Zhen walked in with a pile of folds.

"'Lord Chief' This is the twist and turn of the seal today, the emperor has seen it in the Qianqing Palace, and it is done according to the cabinet's "vote" meaning, and it has been approved. Wang Zhen said softly.

"Of course." Looking up, Wang Zhenyi pointed out: "I heard that you have something to do in the Qianqing Palace?" ”

"It's all about doing things for the master and the court, and only by doing our best, we can't talk about things and things that don't work!" Lord Chief, 'I'll put it here, you use the good seal and then call the little eunuch to squeak, I'll go to the emperor first and wait. Wang Zhen didn't want to mention too much about **, so he withdrew from the celebrant as he spoke.
