Li Dongyang pursed his lips and thought about it for a moment before he said slowly: "Wait and see." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

His words happened to reach the ears of a subordinate on the side, and this person also came up and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, something happened?" There is something wrong in the palace today, Li Gong, it's better to go in and take a look. ”

Liu Jian also persuaded on the side, but at this time, Li Dongyang was moved, and called the little eunuch again, and instructed: "When the tired father-in-law enters the palace, he will say that the old man and Liu Gong want to meet." ”

The father-in-law hesitated for a moment, and then went.

And in the pro-army duty room, Zhu Youzhang seemed to be a little tired, who was the person behind this, which made him have a headache, originally this kind of thing, it was left to Liu Chengfeng to go, but seeing Liu Chengfeng's tired face, Zhu Youzhang felt a little unbearable.

But leaving such a scourge in the palace, how could Zhu Youzhu sleep peacefully.

His eyes still looked at Liu Chengfeng unconsciously, this matter is really only Liu Chengfeng is the best, just from Fang Cai's confession, Liu Chengfeng can see many unusual things, if it is someone else, I am afraid that I have already neglected the powerful relationship here.

Zhu Youzhu couldn't have imagined that this palace was so dangerous, in fact, even a genius like him couldn't help but be a little scared in his heart.

Liu Chengfeng's eyes were bloodshot, he hadn't slept all night, and now he encountered such a tricky thing, although the emperor didn't say anything, but he knew the look in his eyes, he first smiled bitterly, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, the stakes are very high, and this matter must be thoroughly investigated." ”

Zhu Youzhu snorted, neither agreed, nor shook his head, and said for a long time: "You better go and rest first, rest for a while, and I will use you again." ”

Liu Chengfeng was indeed a little tired at this time, but at this time let him go to sleep, he couldn't sleep even if he had something on his mind, and said: "Your Majesty, leave such a scourge in the palace, I don't know when this person will come out to harm people, Weichen doesn't dare to sleep, it's better to start now." ”

Although these words are plain, but the tone is extremely firm, Zhu Youzhu couldn't help but be a little moved at this time, he was originally a sentimental emperor, in fact, for Liu Chengfeng, he has always had all kinds of thoughts, sometimes he wants to use it, sometimes he wants to press it, after all, for the monarch, the issues considered are often more lofty, if you can't plan for the long term, how can you hold the national weapon?

It is precisely because of this purpose that Zhu Youzhang has always pursued the strategy of suppressing Liu Chengfeng, although this method is not very successful, Liu Chengfeng has been gently leaping to the national prince, but in practice, Zhu Youzhang has been pressing Liu Chengfeng, which is the most normal consideration of an emperor, but now, Liu Chengfeng's expression makes Zhu Youzhang feel guilty.

This is a very wonderful psychology, an emperor has a guilt for his courtiers, and there are generally two choices, one is to learn from Zhu Yuanzhang, the white knife goes in and the red knife comes out, and there is nothing to feel guilty about when a person dies. But Zhu Youzhu belonged to the latter, and he suddenly realized that this guy could be trusted.

Zhu Youzhu shook his body and purified himself, so he didn't persuade anymore, it was a matter of safety in the palace, and he couldn't be cautious.

"Let's talk about how to start investigating."

Liu Chengfeng said: "Your Majesty, in fact, it is simple to investigate, this person has such a scheming, and he can be familiar with the eunuchs in the hall, and he has a thorough understanding of everyone in the palace. In addition, this person must also often go in and out of the palace, and can communicate with people outside, if you want to check, you have to start from this aspect, in fact, there are not many people who can meet these conditions. ”

Liu Chengfeng added: "And this person must have a good relationship with Zheng Qiu, the eunuch in the hall, otherwise an old man like Zheng Qiu, who has been in the palace for a long time, how can he easily tell outsiders about his alcoholism?" ”

Zhu Youzhu nodded his head and said: "As soon as you say this, I feel a little eyebrows, and my status is not low, it must be the eunuchs such as the admiral, palm print, and young eunuch of the twelve eunuchs in the palace, and there will be no more than fifty such people in the palace, in addition, they can often enter and leave the palace because of official business, and there are even fewer such people, plus they have a good relationship with this Zheng Qiu......"

Liu Chengfeng said gently: "At most, two or three, or even two or three, it is actually easy to find out this person." ”

Zhu Youzhu was thoughtful, nodded slowly, and said, "Then let's check, come here, go and invite Mu Bin." ”

Mu Bin was actually waiting outside, and when he heard the order, he immediately came in, bowed and saluted, Zhu Youzhu instructed him, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went to do it.

In fact, this thing is also very fast, and I am afraid that in less than half an hour, there will be an echo.

At this time, a eunuch entered the duty room and said, "University scholars Li Dongyang and Liu Jian ask to see them." ”

Zhu Youzhu frowned deeply, at this juncture, how could he be interested in seeing the two, and the state affairs might be able to entrust these two, but the hidden things in the palace were still reserved, and he said impatiently: "Tell him that I still have something to do here, let them stay for a while." ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers of the foreign court have been waiting in a hurry, and they are all speculating......"

Zhu Youzhu waved his hand and said, "I know, you go down, tell them, wait a little longer." ”

After he finished the order, he smiled at Liu Chengfeng, and actually started chatting, he suddenly said: "What happened to Lianzhou, I heard that Lianzhou has now become the richest place in the world, merchants gathered, and I also heard that after the merchant went to sea, even the port to go to sea was not enough, although Lianzhou now has ten counties, but it is still too small, the imperial court collects so much silver every year, all depends on Lianzhou, if there are not so many merchants, how can the inner library be abundant?" ”

When Zhu Youzhu spoke, Liu Chengfeng's face showed nervousness, and he couldn't help but think in his heart, didn't he fall in love with Lianzhou in this palace? The current Lianzhou is no longer the bitter cold Lianzhou of the past, this is Liu Chengfeng's old book, if he is taken back by the palace, he will have no place to cry.

However, Liu Chengfeng actually didn't believe that the palace would take back Lianzhou at will, in fact, the reason is also very simple, the wealth of Lianzhou is built on the opening of the sea, once the imperial court takes back Lianzhou, and still implements the policy of banning the sea, then this Lianzhou will decline rapidly, and the last money is not worth it.

And the imperial court will never agree to the opening of the sea in the palace, which involves the fundamental interests of many ministers, and will definitely not let go.

Zhu Youzhu obviously also saw the unnaturalness on Liu Chengfeng's face, and couldn't help but smile, and said busily: "You are a robber, and you are worried about your one-third of an acre?" Don't worry, I have no interest in Lianzhou, but I just think that this sea trade needs to be expanded. ”

In fact, although the land in Lianzhou is not small, there are many mountains, a large number of businessmen and people have poured in, and it has become the only external window of the Ming Dynasty, and has become the distribution center for goods entering and leaving the customs, that place is now overcrowded, but Zhu Youzhu suddenly said that he wanted to open up sea trade, what does this mean?

Liu Chengfeng's heart was pounding, but he didn't dare to think about it, so he hurriedly held his breath and replied solemnly: "What Your Majesty said is that sea trade is related to the income of the imperial court, and expanding sea trade is indeed a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people." ”

He stopped at this point, but he only agreed with Zhu Youzhang's point of view, but he did not involve himself.

Zhu Youzhu just smiled and didn't say anything more.

After a few words of greeting, Mu Bin finally had a message, came in personally, and said: "Your Majesty, it has been found out, according to Your Majesty's intentions, Weichen found that one person was the most suspicious, it was Wang Xi, the eunuch with the palm print of the capital governor, but it was just ...... Just ......"

Zhu Youjiao's face returned to coldness, and he said coldly: "Where is the person?" ”

When Weichen took people there, Wang Xi seemed to know that something was wrong and had already ...... He had taken a large amount of arsenic and committed suicide. Mu Bin looked a little cautious and looked at Zhu Youzhang's face.

He's dead......

Zhu Youzhu raised his eyebrows, this matter was really unexpected by him, but now that the person is dead, he has nothing to say, he was silent for a long time, his face gradually turned cold, and then he said to Liu Chengfeng slowly: "Since the person is dead, what should I do next?" ”

Liu Chengfeng said: "Since there is no chaos in the palace, then Weichen will leave the palace, go to rest first, and then find out the chaos outside the palace." ”

Zhu Youzhu smiled slightly and said, "Don't be so troublesome, let me cut off these chaotic parties." ”

He beckoned and said to Mu Bin: "Later, you will go to the palace for a while, and say that I am not feeling well today, and the court meeting will be dissolved today, and then I will ask someone to go to the East Palace and invite the prince into the palace, there must be no mistake." ”

Liu Chengfeng, who was sitting on the side, suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face, how could he not understand what Zhu Youzhang was going to do in this arrangement, but if this arrangement continues, this will be earth-shattering for the entire government and the opposition, and the son of heaven, who has always been gentle and elegant, and does things steadily, actually wants to play such a play today, and Liu Chengfeng can't help but be surprised.

The palace has strengthened its defense, and none of the people who congratulated him on his birthday yesterday are now out of the palace, and the palace is only allowed to enter but not to leave, plus the emperor has not shown up until now, if you think of the prince entering the palace to meet you, these clues are actually obvious, the emperor is going to be suspicious and confuse the chaotic party outside the palace.
