"Your Majesty, the imperial doctors are also thinking about your dragon body!" Yang Xiaoyu said a good word for the imperial doctors.

The Carpenter Emperor only scolded a few words, but he still knew in his heart that the imperial doctors were for his good, so he immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about it, what about the fun things I asked you to find?" ”

Yang Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "The minister hasn't found anything interesting for the time being, but the minister has found out a big case, and the emperor should not be angry when he hears it!" ”

The carpenter emperor was displeased: "You tell me about the court all day long, and I have a headache!" After these words, the carpenter emperor waved his hand impatiently: "What's the matter?" Hurry up? ”

Yang Xiaoyu knew that the carpenter emperor didn't like trivial matters of court politics, so he simply said: "Your Majesty, the criminal minister Wang Huazhen can't stand the torture, and confesses that hundreds of thousands of military salaries in Liaodong were greedy by the courtiers. As he spoke, he took out the booklet in his arms and presented it with both hands.

"Tell me!" The Carpenter Emperor sat down on the steps and waved his hand.

Yang Xiaoyu was worried that the carpenter emperor would not trust him, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this booklet should be read to the emperor by the inner servants!" ”

The little eunuchs who can serve the emperor are all a little literate, and the carpenter emperor waved his hand to let the little eunuch next to him take the booklet and read it to him.

The little eunuch took the booklet in Yang Xiaoyu's hand, turned the first page, and began to read aloud.

After a short while, the little eunuch finished reading the booklet and presented it to the carpenter emperor with both hands.

The carpenter emperor took the booklet and scolded angrily: "When I ascended the throne, Wang Huazhen stretched out his hand to the court to ask for military salaries, and I and Lord Fang Ye worked sleepless day and night to raise military salaries for him, but he used military salaries to bribe officials in the court, this thief is hateful!" ”

Yang Xiaoyu added fuel to the fire and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Huazhen also has his difficulties, if he doesn't give the courtiers filial piety silver." How could the courtiers take the matter of the border pass to heart, and the root cause of this matter is that these officials who take bribes are too greedy, knowing that the silver in Wang Huazhen's hand is the salary of the Liaodong army, they still take it correctly, which shows that these people do not take the imperial court and Jiangshan Sheji to heart. ”

The carpenter emperor who heard this was furious. He said angrily: "You lead people to arrest these officials who take bribes according to the records on the list, and I will interrogate them personally!" ”

"Your Majesty, do you want to see Wang Huazhen first and listen to his testimony!" Yang Xiaoyu was worried that he would not be able to find evidence after arresting these officials, and he would not be a person inside and outside at that time, so he said politely.

The Carpenter Emperor frowned and pondered for a moment, calmed down and nodded, and said, "You take Wang Huazhen into the palace." I want to listen to his confession! ”

Yang Xiaoyu bowed, walked out of the main hall, and walked towards the palace gate.

After leaving the palace, Yang Xiaoyu thought that the carriage was too slow, snatched the war horse from the guards, turned over the horse, and galloped on the street like the wind.

The people on the street saw a fast horse swishing over, and they were frightened one by one.

After the horse passed. Countless scoldings immediately appeared, and some people were angry. Take the vegetables and eggs in your hand and throw them at the rider.

Yang Xiaoyu drove the war horse, tried to walk the remote alleys, and after a while, galloped to the gate of Fusi in Beizhen.

After dismounting, Yang Xiaoyu entered the Fusi of Beizhen, and ordered Zhou Heguang to take his soldiers and horses to escort Wang Huazhen into the palace with him.

In order to prevent someone from assassinating Wang Huazhen. Yang Xiaoyu got a prisoner cart, threw a strong martial arts rider into the prisoner cart, and put a weapon on him, if someone came to kill him, he could use the weapon to fight the enemy.

The real Wang Huazhen is wearing a flying fish suit ridden by Wei Ti in brocade. Walk in the middle of a crowd of riders.

Coming out of Beizhen Fusi, Yang Xiaoyu rode a horse and walked in front, Zhou Heguang followed Yang Xiaoyu with two hundred households, and five hundred brocade clothes rode behind.

Yang Xiaoyu was worried that the Donglin officials would get in the way, so he changed the route several times along the way, although it took a little longer, but fortunately, there was nothing wrong on the road and he reached the palace gate smoothly.

Because Wang Huazhen was wearing a flying fish suit, Yang Xiaoyu was worried that the carpenter emperor would blame him for this, so he asked him to change into a prison coat in the carriage.

It was inconvenient for Yang Xiaoyu to enter the palace with so many people, so he only brought twenty horsemen to escort Wang Huazhen into the palace.

When he came to the warm pavilion, the little eunuch immediately opened the door of the palace for Yang Xiaoyu.

Yang Xiaoyu asked two horsemen to escort Wang Huazhen into the hall, and he himself followed behind.

Entering the main hall, after Yang Xiaoyu saluted, he saw the carpenter emperor wearing a dragon robe, wearing a crown, dressed neatly, sitting on the dragon seat, the dragon couch was cleaned up very neatly, there was no figure of Fang Weiyi, I thought it should be the carpenter emperor to the apse.

"The criminal minister Wang Huazhen sees the emperor!" Wang Huazhen, who was wearing prison clothes, kowtowed and bowed.

The Carpenter Emperor maintained a dignified posture and asked in a deep voice, "Is what Yang Aiqing played true?" ”

"If you go back to the emperor, what Lord Yang has played is the truth!" Wang Huazhen responded.

The Carpenter Emperor asked again, "Why did you give my Liaodong military salary to the imperial court?" ”

Wang Huazhen was instructed by Yang Xiaoyu before setting off, and all the blame was put on the Donglin Party, and replied: "Back to the emperor, the minister governors Liaodong, many things have to be agreed by the courtiers, and they reached out to the ministers to ask for silver, and the ministers sternly refused them, so they united to push and push, so that the ministers could not get military salaries for several months, and the soldiers at the border pass were dizzy from hunger, their morale was low, and they had no combat power. ”

The Carpenter Emperor suddenly became angry, and said coldly: "Then why don't you go on to repay me?" ”

"The minister doesn't dare, if the minister dares to write this matter into a chapter, I'm afraid the minister's head is already gone!" Wang Huazhen cried bitterly and lay on the ground and replied.

The carpenter emperor closed his eyes, thought for a while, and waved his hand to let Tiqi take Wang Huazhen out.

The horsemen escorted Wang Huazhen out of the hall quickly.

Yang Xiaoyu stood in the hall and waited for the will of the carpenter emperor.

After a long time.

The Carpenter Emperor stood up from the dragon throne and said in a deep voice: "Yang Aiqing, according to the list provided by Wang Huazhen, immediately take down these chaotic ministers and thieves for me!" ”

"Your Majesty, among these people are Lord Zhao and Lord Gao of the Ministry of Officials and the Imperial Procuratorate, as well as many ministers of the court, if the emperor takes them, I am afraid that the country will be shaken, please think twice!" Yang Xiaoyu pretended to remind.

The Carpenter Emperor sneered: "A group of rebels, what do I want them to do with these moths? Take them all down and put them in prison, and I will interrogate them myself another day! ”

"Obey the order!" Yang Xiaoyu laughed in his heart, and finally had a chance to clean up this group of hypocrites.

The carpenter emperor instructed the little eunuch to go to the celebrant to deliver the decree, and ordered the celebrant to immediately issue a holy decree to Yang Xiaoyu and give Yang Xiaoyu the right to act cheaply.

Yang Xiaoyu said goodbye to the carpenter emperor, waited to take the holy decree issued by the celebrant and strode out of the palace.

Coming to the outside of the palace, Yang Xiaoyu immediately sent someone to summon all the thousands of households in the capital of Beizhen Fusi.

Then, he took Zhou Heguang and his entourage to ride Wang Huazhen back to Beizhen Fusi quickly.

Today is a good day, Yang Xiaoyu was in a happy mood, returned to the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division, he changed into armor, put on an embroidered spring knife, sat on the main seat of the hall, waiting for the arrival of all thousands of households, Huang Zhongwei and Ding Chenghu sat on the seats next to the hall, the two of them did not know what holy decree Yang Xiaoyu received when he entered the palace, and after he came back, he sat on the main seat with a smile on his face, and the two looked at each other, guessing what would happen next.

After a while!

All the ten thousand households of the Beizhen Fusi arrived, including Geng Kaicheng, the thousand households guarding the edict.

After all the thousands of households saluted Yang Xiaoyu, they sat on the chairs on both sides under Yang Xiaoyu's signal.

Yang Xiaoyu swept the faces of all the thousands of households, stood up and said with a smile: "Everyone, this official received the emperor's holy decree to arrest a group of rebel ministers and thieves, and you are all trustworthy people of the official, and the official will not tell you, this time to arrest the rebel minister, you must not let the thief escape, let alone make a big fanfare, make the people of the capital panic, everything must wait until the night to go out, therefore, during this time, you will stay in the hall with the official first, and wait for it to get dark, and then the official will give you an order!" ”

The thousands of households also nodded in agreement, in their minds, the rebel ministers arrested this time must be court officials, otherwise, Yang Xiaoyu would not have told them so solemnly.

Little by little, time passed.

When it was time for lunch, Yang Xiaoyu ordered someone to deliver the food to the hall, and a group of thousands of households ate in the hall with him.

After a meal, night falls on the earth, and the sky slowly darkens.

Yang Xiaoyu kept writing the name with his pen, and when he finished writing the name of the last official, he laughed loudly and ordered thousands of households to come up to receive the list.

Thousands of households stepped forward to take the list one by one in order.

After the last list was taken away, Yang Xiaoyu stood up and said with a smile: "The list in your hands is the rebel minister you want to arrest, it is the first night at this time, you can go back to gather soldiers and horses, and wait until midnight to arrest them, remember, don't let anyone go!" ”

"My subordinates understand!"

Thousands of households bowed their hands and turned around and left.

In the hall, only the left and right deputy town envoys and thousands of households Geng Kaicheng, Hu Heguang remained.

Yang Xiaoyu sat down and said with a smile: "Geng Qianhu returned to the edict prison to prepare a few more cells, and sent someone to clean the cells!" ”

"Subordinates obey!" Geng Kaicheng saluted and strode away.

As for Hu Chenghe, Yang Xiaoyu didn't have anything to do for him for a while, and immediately thought that the governor of Zhejiang was also on the list, and he needed to send a few cronies to deliver the letter to He Tao, a thousand households in Hangzhou, so that He Tao could act according to what the letter said.

Yang Xiaoyu wrote a letter with a pen, summoned Hu Chenghe, whispered a few words in his ear, stuffed the letter into Hu Chenghe's hand, and asked him to go down to do something.

When only Huang Zhongwei and Ding Chenghu were left in the hall, Yang Xiaoyu smiled and said: "The two adults will wait here for a while with the official, and there will be a good show tonight!" ”

Huang Zhongwei and Ding Chenghu glanced at each other, a puzzle flashed in their eyes, and then sat silently on the side. (To be continued......)
