Zhou Shuyuan, with a solemn face, locked himself in the study, thinking about the solution.

Beiwang Weizheng was furious in the lobby of the palace.

A few days ago, he specifically explained to Sun Chengzong that the entire purge process must be kept secret. Otherwise, there will certainly be many voices of opposition in the military. If you don't do it, this purge operation may cause turmoil in the military.

And now, before the purge has begun, the news has leaked out.

What's more important is that the parents and the forces behind the targets of this purge relied on the fact that they were the former heroes of the Haw Par Army, as if they had been discussed, and came to the palace at the same time, hoping that they could stop this purge ......

"What do they want to do, do they want to force the palace...... This king is still alive, they are so arrogant, if this king dies one day, then they will not directly put this king's son in the air......" Wei Zheng, who was full of anger, was like an angry lion, and scolded loudly......

"The king is now very glad that he insisted on taking the rights in their hands a year ago, and compensated them with silver for their hard work for the Haw Par Army...... If they still have military power in their hands now, this king does not dare to guarantee that they will not directly lead their troops into the city to launch a coup d'état......"

finally waited for Wei Zheng to finish scolding, and the anger on his face dissipated a lot. Sun Chengzong, who was scolded and his face was flushed, finally found an opportunity to answer: "Lord Wang, I have already found out...... It was a lieutenant colonel staff officer in the staff department who leaked the news......"

"After interrogation, the lieutenant colonel has confessed in full...... Moreover, this lieutenant colonel staff officer was also an abnormal way, and it only took two years. He was promoted from second lieutenant to lieutenant colonel. As soon as the purge begins. This lieutenant colonel staff officer will definitely be the first to be purged...... To stay alive. This staff officer leaked the news, hoping that the opposition of these veteran generals in the army will make you change your mind and stop purging in the army......"

After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, Wei Zheng did not answer immediately, but asked with a mocking face: "Joke, Chief of Staff, are you playing this king as a treasure...... Just a lieutenant colonel staff officer is a great capability. It is impossible to organize so many former veterans of the Haw Par Army in such a short period of time, and make a big fuss in the palace......"

"This ......" Facing Wei Zheng's clever rhetorical question, Sun Chengzong's forehead immediately broke out with beads of sweat because of nervousness.

After some painful struggle, he replied with a hesitant face: "Lord Wang, I do have something to hide...... Just ......"

Faced with this situation, Wei Zheng's clenched fist directly slammed into the table in front of him out of anger.

Then, he scolded loudly: "Chief of Staff, what else do you have to hesitate...... Do you really want to see the Haw Par Army in turmoil? Countless soldiers of the Haw Par Army died in this turmoil for no apparent reason......"

"If the situation really turns out to be like this, you, Sun Chengzong, are the sinners of the entire Tiger and Par Army......"

"Lord, I said ......" under a series of questions from Wei Zheng. Sun Chengzong had to open his mouth to answer......

After interrogation, Staff Officer Zhang confessed...... The reason why he was promoted to lieutenant colonel in such a short period of time. and entered the general staff, which was arranged by the military division...... The reason why the news was revealed was also arranged by the military advisor...... As for dozens of veterans making trouble in the palace, I don't know......"

After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, he saw very clearly that a trace of a very strong murderous aura quickly emanated from Wei Zheng's body.

Then, he said with a murderous face: "You don't know that this king knows...... Looking at all the civil and military forces under the command of this king, the military division has this ability...... A year ago, this king remembers it very clearly. These veterans can only retire from a high position by looking at their exploits and the help of military advisors. Not only that, but the military advisor also won an extra 10,000 taels of silver for each of them......"

"It is safe to say that in the Haw Par Army, except for this king, they only listen to military advisors. Even at some point, the words of this king are not as good as those of the military advisor......"

Hearing this, Sun Chengzong didn't have to guess to know that Wei Zheng in front of him had already made a killing move.

Of course, this killing machine is not aimed at Zhou Shuyuan.

In Sun Chengzong's opinion, as long as Zhou Shuyuan does not betray the prince in front of him, with the character of the prince, Zhou Shuyuan will not kill him no matter how big a mistake he makes.

Since the prince will not kill Zhou Shuyuan, the strong murderous intent exuded by the prince is aimed at Staff Officer Zhang and those veterans who have been imprisoned......

Thinking of this, Sun Chengzong hurriedly asked, "Lord Wang, then what are we going to ......do next?"

"This Staff Officer Zhang must ......die," Wei Zheng replied without thinking about it......

"As soon as the news comes out, there are too many disadvantages that may bring us...... If you don't kill him, it's not enough to set an example for you......"

"As for the veterans who have withdrawn from the army and officialdom, this king will let them go this time. However, in order to strictly sin military regulations and military law...... Their descendants in the Haw Par Army will be severely punished if they violate military rules and military law......"

"However, in order to prevent the army from disturbing because of these people, from now on, these people will be put in classrooms immediately. If there's anything wrong, I'll be arrested......"

"During the whole operation, I will let the internal guard Luo Yangxing cooperate with your action..."

"Finally, since the news of the purge operation has been leaked, then we will carry out the ...... with great fanfare."

"Ordered all armies to restrain the officers and men under their command, and at the same time conduct a self-examination of the promotions of all officers above the company level under their command. After it is finished, it will be reported to the General Staff Headquarters, which will go to the various armies for random inspection in half a month. If there is any concealment and failure to report, all officers from the commander down shall be punished......"

Sun Chengzong's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly replied: "Lord Wang is wise, the commanders of all armies must have a stronger ability to restrain the officers and soldiers under his command than our general staff, let them participate, and the possibility of turmoil in the Tiger and Leopard Army will be reduced......

Wei Zheng nodded and replied, "Since that's the case, then do it......"

"In addition, after leaving the palace, let the military advisor be informed, and he said that the king would have dinner with him in the evening, and invited him to the palace to ...... The king is waiting for him in the palace......"

"Yes, Lord ......"

Zhou Shuyuan's mansion, the closed door of the study, still has no intention of opening.

However, in the housekeeper's room, the housekeeper, who looked very old on the surface, was sitting at his desk energetically at this moment, quickly writing something on a piece of paper.

At this moment, there was not the slightest shadow of the old butler in him......

Soon, a piece of paper was covered with dense small print. When the ink is all dry, the butler rolls up two pieces of paper and puts them into a small bamboo tube, and then ties the small bamboo tube to the leg of a pigeon.

Waiting for the pigeon to leave and disappear from its view. The old housekeeper regained his old figure...... (To be continued......)
