In front of the gate of the celebrant supervisor, Cao Jixiang couldn't kneel.

"Dong Weng is not a guest today, Brother Cao, you can go back." What came out was now the second person under Wang Zhen, the eunuch Gao Rang of Si Li Bingbi.

"Senior brother, can you please tell me again, just say that Cao really has something important to tell Dong Weng." Cao Jixiang said earnestly.

"Hey, for the sake of you and me, I'll help you pass it on again." Gao Rang sighed, turned around and entered the door of the celebrant again.

"He's not gone yet?" As soon as Gao Rang stepped into the empty hall of the celebrant and the celebrant hall, a hoarse voice came from inside.

"Yes, Dong Weng, do you want to see him, it's always inappropriate for him to kneel outside like this." Gao Rang walked in slowly, at least three or four meters away from the curtain, and bowed to the people inside.

"At this time, what do you say to let our family see him?"

"Cao Qin's kid we still know the roots, it's not bad, even if there are some mistakes, then we will be dead if we discipline him, why should he be handed over to Jinyiwei?"

"Although Cao Qin is working in Dongchang, after all, he is also a thousand households of Jinyiwei, he has broken the law, and Jinyiwei should take people, so he can't fault it?"

"But I heard that although the person who took the person was a brocade guard, what kind of inspector was the yamen who gave the order?"

"That's the yamen that the master ordered to set up, although it's only temporary, but it's the Mandate of Heaven, and Cao Qin is too bold, don't you know the importance of this?"

"Dong Weng, it's Cao Qin who is arrested, but it's actually aimed at Brother Cao's East Factory."

"You go and sue Cao Jixiang, as long as Cao Qin is innocent. Our family will make sure he is okay, let him go back first. ”

"Whoa!"

"The emperor has a decree, Mr. Xuan Wang is here!"

"Let me change my clothes, I'll be there soon!"

The little yellow door of the decree nodded, hurriedly lowered his head, and retreated outside the door to wait.

"I heard it, and the master also announced me, I don't have time to see him, let him go home and wait for the letter." Wang Zhen commanded.

"Whoa!" A hint of gloom flashed in Gao Rang's eyes, this matter was too big. I'm afraid that even Wang Zhen won't be able to end.

South Den.

"Sir. Recently, I received a telegram to say that there are followers of the White Lotus Cult hidden in the East Factory, and I also have evidence that these treacherous people also have tattoos of the White Lotus Cult on their bodies. Is there such a thing? As soon as Zhu Qizhen saw Wang Zhen. Splitting asked.

"The old slave also heard these rumors."

"Rumors. Sir, mean these are all rumors? Zhu Qizhen was suspicious.

"There is no definite evidence, and no one can be sure that there are people from the White Lotus Cult hidden in the East Factory, so the old slave doesn't believe it." Wang Zhendao.

"What if there is conclusive evidence?"

"If there is evidence. The old slave naturally believed. Wang Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then nodded solemnly.

"Here's a report that was sent to the minister by the Secretary of the Sect of the Sect, so you might as well take a look, sir?" Zhu Qizhen took out a fold and handed it to Wang Zhendao.

Wang Zhen opened it and looked at it, his face changed slightly.

"What's the matter, you said that the rumors may not be credible, so the news presented by the secret spy department of the sect is not credible either?"

"Master, the old slave really never thought that the White Lotus Cult had infiltrated us!"

"Yes, since the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect in Shandong was suppressed by the imperial court twenty years ago, they have been in a slump for many years, and the Jingshi has rarely seen any trace of them, what I didn't expect is that they will infiltrate my side, this is terrible!" Zhu Qizhen almost gritted his teeth.

"Yes, the old slave also thinks it is very scary, but this matter must be cautious, master, once the news spreads, I am afraid that it will fall into a panic in the government and the opposition." Wang Zhendao.

"Of course I understand this truth, that's why I asked my husband to come over and discuss, what should I do?" Zhu Qizhen said.

"This, this ......" Wang Zhen couldn't think of any good way for a while, in fact, even if it was self-examination, it was very difficult, and these people would not engrave the words "I am the White Lotus Cult" on their heads.

However, Wang Zhen also knew in his heart that even if there were followers of the White Lotus Cult who mixed into Dongchang or the palace, it would be a very small minority.

The imperial court's control over the White Lotus Cult is still very strict, and it is not easy for the people of the White Lotus Sect to infiltrate.

What's more, not all the followers of the White Lotus Sect are fanatical believers, they also have good people and bad people.

It's just that once I was bitten by a snake, I was afraid of grass ropes for ten years, and the turmoil that almost swept the entire Ming Dynasty twenty years ago is still fresh in many people's memories.

How many people died, how many people were killed, and finally in order to catch the bandit leader, the White Lotus Holy Mother Tang Sai'er, how much effort was spent, so that the absurd decree of the nuns all over the world to return to vulgarity has been issued.

"Master, this matter needs to be investigated, but the secret is investigated."

"Then you say, how to check?" Of course, Zhu Qizhen knew that he was going to investigate, and if he didn't investigate, he, the emperor, wouldn't be able to sleep.

In case someone from the White Lotus Sect infiltrates the palace and comes to him, one day he doesn't like him, and while he is asleep, he clicks him, what a grievance!

"Master, let's start with the people around you, there is no problem to stay, if there is a problem, transfer first, and then expand, what do you see?"

"Well, sir, this is a good method, then start with me and the queen and the people around the queen mother, you do this matter, don't let anyone know, and report my progress at any time."

"The old slave obeys." Wang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, the emperor handed over such an important matter to himself, and it seemed that the emperor's trust in himself was increasing.

"Now that there are rumors outside that there are people from the White Lotus Cult in the East Factory, what is the gentleman going to do with it?"

"If there is a big fanfare, it will inevitably fluctuate people's hearts and affect the operation of the East Factory, the old slave is still based on secret investigations, and the rumors can be refuted externally, which is a rumor spread by people with a heart against the East Factory!" Wang Zhen thought for a moment and bowed his head.

"How to secretly investigate, how many people are in the East Factory, how long does it take to check them all?" Zhu Qizhen asked.

"The old slave thinks that we can start with the investigation above the level of 100 households, and then after the inspection, let them check their respective subordinates. This speed is bound to be much faster. Wang Zhen said.

"Well, that's what Mr. said, but will there still be fish that slip through the net?" Zhu Qizhen asked, "This White Lotus cult member has special tattoo marks on his body, as long as we check this, wouldn't it be clear at a glance?" ”

"Master, if these people really want to sneak in, then there will definitely be no marks on their bodies that can be discovered by us, even if they are secretive. That also has the potential to be exposed. Therefore, you can't find out if you look this up. ”

"What Mr. said makes sense, Guo Aiqing also said so to me."

"Is it Lord Guo Nu?"

"Yes, the report of the Department of Education also mentions Jinyiwei. That's why I summoned Guo Aiqing before you. He also said. This is a rumor, and it is also believed that someone is framing him, causing Dongchang and Jinyiwei to fight inward. Let the government and the opposition not be at peace! Zhu Qizhen said.

"Guo Nu really said that?" Wang Zhen was a little skeptical.

"Guo Aiqing has always been right about things and not people, and you are a little worse at this point, sir." Zhu Qizhen said.

"Master, the old slave is also right about things and not people, but this Guo Laohu can't get used to the old slave, and the old slave has no choice."

"I know you two usually disagree, but on this matter, you do agree on the same thing." Zhu Qizhen smiled.

"Cao Qin let Meng Yan arrest him, what do you think about this matter?"

"The old slave doesn't know the inside story, so it's not good to evaluate."

"This is a brief summary of the case presented by Meng Yan, I can't help but scold this Cao Qin when I see it, such a person actually holds the position of a thousand households, if the imperial court lets this person hold the official position, the common people don't scold me every day for being a mediocre and unscrupulous king?" Zhu Qizhen reprimanded very harshly.

Wang Zhen glanced at the brief facts of the case at a glance, and was also very surprised, the case was so tortuous and bizarre, it was unexpected.

"Regardless of whether this Bai Suxin was wronged or not, Cao Qin's co-defendant embezzled other people's property, accepted bribes, tortured to extract confessions, and the charges of adultery with others are conclusive!" Zhu Qizhen walked to the dragon chair above Dan Qiao and sat down, and said heavily.

"This Cao Qin really deserves to be killed!"

"Sir, do you think this Cao Qin should be killed?" Zhu Qizhen said in surprise.

"Master, if Cao Qin really committed these crimes, shouldn't he be killed?" Wang Zhen asked rhetorically.

"Sir, do you know that Cao Qin is Cao Aiqing's righteous son and his servant, if he really kills Cao Qin, what will happen to Cao Qing?"

"It's not a pity for a Cao Qin to die, the Cao family will choose another successor for him." Wang Zhen knew that Cao Qin couldn't be saved, if he had to report to Cao Qin, maybe even Cao Jixiang would fall into it, at the moment, he wanted to convey this meaning to Cao Jixiang as much as possible, let him give up Cao Qin, and then quickly clear up some of his interests with Cao Qin!

Lose the pawn to protect the car, and break the tail to survive.

From the time the emperor received the report from the Jiaofang Division that the first person summoned was Guo Nu instead of him, Wang Zhen understood that the emperor was a little dissatisfied with him, if he couldn't satisfy the emperor next, this time the dissatisfaction would expand into a rift, and when the time came, if he wanted to make up for it, the cost would be even greater!

Cao Jixiang is his right-hand man, this person is very capable, and he can also fight, he needs him, he can't help it, and Cao Qin is just Cao Jixiang's favorite son, at this time, he can completely give up.

Of course, it would be best if he could hold Cao Qin's life, but he also saw the emperor's attitude.

Cao Qin's crime is too big, and if he doesn't die, I'm afraid it won't be enough for the people to be angry.

The stupidest thing Cao Qin did was to resist arrest, which had already pierced a sensitive nerve in the emperor's heart.

You can resist arrest today, will you rebel next time?

For this kind of first-born person, any king will only have one choice, to suppress it directly.

"The cabinet intends to remove Boyan from the post of governor of the first Beijing camp and issue an edict!" While Wang Zhenzheng was thinking in his heart, the emperor's heavy voice came to his ears.

Wang Zhen's body trembled slightly, Dudu Boyan was one of Cao Jixiang's henchmen in Beijing.

The emperor did this, I am afraid that he was really dissatisfied with Cao Jixiang.

Of course, Boyan did pass this time, and he almost clashed with Jinyiwei and caused a big disaster, shouldn't he be punished?

Should! (To be continued......)
