Li Xiao nodded and said, "It seems that you are not stupid, the old eunuch said that we should be fair, which obviously represents what the royal family said, that is, His Majesty the Emperor." Actually, I don't think this is justice for us, I have some guesses. ”

"This matter may be related to the intrigue of their royal family, His Majesty the Emperor said that he would see us in seven days, why delay until seven days later? Is he really entangled in all kinds of things and can't get out? I can't see it. His Majesty the Emperor made it clear that he was going to embarrass Shui Lingshan, if he really wanted to do it in advance, I am afraid that there would not be only a few people who came now. ”

"It's actually very simple to tear your face, meet you, refuse to back down, there is no need to make trouble in the East Palace. I even feel that we have both been used by His Majesty the Emperor. As for whether my guess is true or not, there will naturally be an answer later. ”

Originally, Li Xiao felt that Yin Zheng couldn't understand what Li Xiao said, because Li Xiao didn't speak thoroughly.

But Yin Zheng nodded and said, "Brother Li, I think what you said is very reasonable, this is not to kill people with a knife, but to throw bricks and lead jade." ”

"Hey, Brother Yin is good, he's really enlightened."

"You've said it so thoroughly, I still don't understand?"

The next day, which was supposed to be the day of the recess, His Majesty the Emperor held an early court.

Everyone already knows what happened in the East Palace last night. Today, the emperor suddenly convened an early court, obviously to talk about last night's incident.

"Lord Qu, Lord Bao, come forward and listen to the order." The old eunuch Pei Gonggong next to the emperor shouted loudly.

Qu Yonghuang and Bao Min hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to listen to the order.

"Qu Yonghuang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Bao Min, the secretary of the Criminal Department, do not comply with the decree, abuse their power, do not report their private offerings, and deceive the king. The widow remembered that the two adults had been officials for decades, worked hard, pardoned the death penalty, and confiscated all the family property.

The old eunuch's words were not long, but the meaning was indeed very obvious.

No one in the Manchu Dynasty thought that after the trouble in the East Palace last night, His Majesty the Emperor not only did not offend the two warriors from Shuiling Mountain, but first dismissed Qu Yonghuang and Bao Min, who participated in the turmoil last night.

Qu Yonghuang and Bao Min were suddenly in turmoil, and they were covered in cold sweat. Originally, everyone thought that when the emperor opened the dynasty, he would condemn the two martial artists of Shui Ling Mountain in advance, after all, tearing his face with Shui Ling Mountain was already a matter on the bright side.

At this time, both of them thought of what Wei Xun said to them last night.

The two of them suddenly came to their senses.

What is an up-and-coming bird? Why do they say they resist? His Majesty the Emperor said that he would see Yin Zheng in seven days, which meant that the matter should be discussed after seven days, no matter whether he tore his face or fought at that time, it was also His Majesty's matter after seven days.

And they colluded with the prince to find trouble with the martial artists of Shuiling Mountain in advance, which became a disobedience to the holy will.

Now they want to get rid of the two of them, and they have figured it out. His Majesty the Emperor is not targeting these two second-grade Shangshu lords who are actually not hard workers, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

The prince's party is too powerful! There are faint signs that he is about to overpower the Son of Heaven on the dragon chair.

Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor, before he abdicates, he will definitely not allow anyone to have more power than him, not even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Therefore, these two high-ranking princelings were taken out by the emperor by taking this opportunity.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost two Shangshu, not to mention that his arms have been broken, but it has also played a full role in knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger. The rest of the princelings, if they act in the future, will really have to think twice.

These two Shangshu lords only now feel that the seemingly dull Tingwei Wei Xun is actually a cunning fox, no wonder after people support the crown prince, they can still be reused by His Majesty the Emperor.

did not kill these two Shangshu lords, in fact, his majesty the emperor was already benevolent.

The fate of these two people is not too bad. After all the family property is confiscated, they will have their own private money and property, and they will live the rest of their lives without worry.

It's a pity that after being mixed into such a high position all my life, it collapsed with a little wind and rain.

At this time, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had already smelled a sensitive breath.

Of course, the most embarrassed at this time was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who stood in the front row. blatantly suppressing him is also warning him not to go too far.

If the emperor can canonize you as the crown prince, he can also remove your crown prince.

Moreover, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, these two departments, are very important departments.

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor got up from the dragon chair, walked down the steps, shook his wide sleeves, walked up to a person, stared at the minister, and asked, "Lord Zhang, in your mansion, is there a selfish offering to worship the guest who has not reported it?" ”

The adult quickly knelt down, then shook his head.

"What about you? Lord Liu? His Majesty the Emperor asked again.

The man, in the same way, knelt down and shook his head, not daring to say anything.

"And you? Master Lee? ”

At this time, all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could not afford to kneel.

"Tell me about all of you, you're all adults, how do you live like villains? Did the widow say that he was not allowed to provide for the guest? Qu Yonghuang, there is still an old monk of the Eight Realms in your mansion, what do you want to do? Rebellion? The emperor walked up to Qu Yonghuang, hooked down and asked.

"The sinners don't dare." Qu Yonghuang replied tremblingly.

"Don't you dare why you refuse to report!" The Emperor was suddenly furious.

"Criminal, damn it!" Qu Yonghuang threw his head to the ground.

"Is it that each of you in the mansion has to raise one or two guest secretaries of the Eight Realms, and when the time comes, you will find the right time to turn the imperial city upside down!" The Emperor said furiously.

After the emperor stopped talking, there was silence in the face.

Since the opening of the Qingshui Kingdom, the founding emperor has issued an edict agreeing to this matter, but it must be reported, otherwise it is a crime of bullying the king.

Why are there many people who have high-level offerings in their homes, but they don't report it? Offering to a high-level martial artist requires too much money.

It's like Qu Yonghuang, the old monk of the Eight Realms in the mansion, the money he takes from him every year is more than ten times higher than his money. If it is reported, it is equivalent to saying that he has collected money in private.

Therefore, those civil and military officials who have a high level of worship in the palace are more and more afraid to report it easily.

In fact, this matter has always been a problem for the emperor. There are too many high-ranking people walking around in Liangjing, and he doesn't mind. But there were too many high-ranking people he didn't know who were walking around at will, and they were still walking around the mansions of these ministers of the court, so he had to be wary.

If there are people with bad intentions, I am afraid that it will cause some chaos in the imperial city.

His Majesty the Emperor was trying to find out the worshippers who were hiding in the shadows, and only now did he find a suitable opportunity.

The water in this pool was drained at one time, and the eight kings naturally came out of the water.

Justifiably.

Next, His Majesty the Emperor left without saying anything, and after the old eunuch announced his retirement from the court, everyone began to talk in the court.

It seems that those customers who are kept at home are going to be reported.
