Zhao Wenlu made full preparations before going to the court, found the person whose family members were all in the house, took this matter with full authority, and threatened his family that no matter how the old emperor forced him, he gritted his teeth and carried the matter down.

After the matter is completed, Zhao Wenlu will give his family a sum of money, enough to live the rest of his life without worrying about food and clothing.

However, once there are unfavorable words to Zhao Wenlu, he will also give his family a sum of silver, just for burial.

It is said that the official level crushes people to death, but a small guy in the house has no choice, so he has to do it.

But the old emperor still knew a little about Zhao Wenlu, and he never believed that a subordinate without any background would dare to make weapons privately.

"This is the confession of a private weaponist, look at it, what do you want to say." The old emperor took Boss Kong's testimony to Zhao Wenlu to test his reaction.

Zhao Wenlu knew very well in his heart that Boss Kong must have confessed all the things that had been with him all these years to collude with him to make weapons.

If the penal code of the magistrates is severe, then the interrogation in the palace is like walking in hell.

So no matter what kind of person it is, even if it is iron and copper teeth, it can be pried open.

Regarding Boss Kong's testimony, Zhao Wenlu was very calm, and there was no emotional change on his face.

"This kind of nonsense testimony, the sons will not read it, and they will not believe it. This is the testimony of the person caught by the minister, and the evidence is also handed over to the criminal department for trial, the truth in it, I believe the emperor will make a wise judgment. ”

Zhao Wenlu took a brief and cursory look, and she just coped with it, and she showed the evidence she had been preparing to do a long time ago to the old emperor.

I don't see any flaws in it.

"Who should I believe in the two confessions, and what are the opinions of the ministers?" The old emperor threw this hot potato to the civil and military officials.

In fact, the old emperor still has selfish intentions, just to see how many of these officials collude with Zhao Wenlu.

We should take the opportunity to clarify some things, and we should be cautious in dealing with these officials in the future, so as to prevent the tree from becoming a big wind, intertwined, and difficult to clean up after the branches and foliage are overgrown.

The officials did not dare to draw conclusions lightly. Worried that a word would anger Shengyan and set himself on fire.

"Ministers obey the holy will." The officials spoke in unison.

"Father, the son-in-law was busy with the flood before and neglected to take precautions, so that the people in the house made waves, it was the son's negligence, and the son-in-law was willing to be punished to correct the guilt." Zhao Wenlu avoided the important and pushed himself out.

In this way, everyone thinks that Zhao Wenlu was implicated by the subordinates in the house, and he was accused of negligence.

This is much lighter than the crime of making weapons privately and attempting to rebel.

"The three princes did not investigate the subordinates, disturbed the hearing and hearing, and the subordinates were decided, and the three princes were fined for half a year and confined to the mansion for three months as a punishment."

The old emperor's small punishment and big admonition to Zhao Wenlu was also a warning to the ministers who depended on him and beheaded his subordinates, which was also a warning to Zhao Wenlu.

I hope he can remember this lesson and do things more restraining in the future.

Always remind myself in my mind that under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's city.

"Thank you for your father's teachings, and my sons should remember." Zhao Wenlu knelt down and bowed.

But Zhao Wenlu's heart was secretly proud, rather than showing his edge and becoming the target of everyone, it was better to take a step back and dispel the old emperor's doubts.

"In this incident, Dongfang Yi was wronged, and it was also his efforts to correct the situation and return his true image. I hereby present a plaque as a token of appreciation. The old emperor gave his own plaque to Dongfang Yi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Dongfang Yi gladly accepted.

"Your Majesty."

All the great ones chimed in.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, the ministers all went to get close to Dongfang Yitao, and their words vaguely explained that the previous things were all misunderstandings, and they had their own unavoidable hardships.

Dongfang Yi repaid his grievances with virtue and laughed it off.

Zhao Wenlu was lonely in the mansion, although there was no danger this time, but he knew very well that the old emperor had lost his trust in him.

"Master, how is it, what did the emperor say?" Peony greeted him, eager to know the result.

"Grounded for three months and fined for half a year." Zhao Wenlu was lifeless and didn't seem to have any emotions.

"This is nothing to the palace, but why is the prince sullen?" Peony was curious.

It should be a thing to be thankful to be able to save his life, but Zhao Wenlu looked a little unhappy.

"Grounded, Yulu, it's nothing in the eyes of this king, but this king found that the emperor has begun to suspect it, although he found a scapegoat this time, but the emperor doesn't seem to believe it at all."

Zhao Wenlu was very suspicious, his brows had been frowning since he entered the door, and his eyes kept turning around, as if he was searching for something.

"Master, don't worry, maybe it's suspicious Dongfang Yi, let's not scare ourselves and mess with ourselves." Peony tried her best to comfort Zhao Wenlu, and she didn't want what Zhao Wenlu was worried about to come true.

But Zhao Wenlu was originally an impatient person, and he would be worried if there was a little wind and grass.

"The emperor sent someone to investigate the affairs of the people in the palace, although it has been arranged a long time ago, but it is difficult to guarantee that nothing will be found."

Zhao Wenlu seemed to feel that there was a knife hanging over his head, and he didn't know when it would fall down, making his head fall to the ground.

The behavior of the old emperor today is the best proof of this.

"Ye has been too tired recently, it is better to take a hot bath, and the peony will loosen your muscles and bones."

Peony pinched Zhao Wenlu's shoulders and tried to relax him.

At this moment, Zhao Wenlu has no master, so he has to obey Peony's arrangement.

When he was taking a bath, Zhao Wenlu really relaxed, his body relaxed, and his mind became clearer. The things that had been bothering him before suddenly became clear.

Peony came in to serve Zhao Wenlu, "Master, do you want to have a drink?" ”

"No need, call the butler in." Zhao Wenlu's eyes glowed with coldness.

Peony sent someone to call the housekeeper in, and Zhao Wenlu was being served by Peony to change clothes.

"Lord Wang, side concubine." The butler's etiquette.

"From today onwards, arrange reliable people, train soldiers, notify the ministers of the court, and try to attract some important officials for the king's use." Zhao Wenlu explained clearly.

His decision made Peony very puzzled, and the housekeeper was even more surprised when he heard it.

"Lord Wang, this private training of soldiers, the crime is similar to that of privately making weapons, if this is known by the emperor......" The housekeeper reminded Zhao Wenlu worriedly.

"It's said that it's private, that's no problem, it's strictly guarded, and after the matter is done, all those who know about it will be silenced." Zhao Wenlu tore off his robe vigorously and stared at it, as if he was looking at a dragon robe.

Peony felt that Zhao Wenlu was afraid that the dog would jump off the wall in a hurry, and he wanted to take the initiative to attack, "This matter has just subsided, maybe the emperor is still staring at us, Lord Wang, wouldn't it be true to do this." ”

"Yes, Lord Wang." The housekeeper chimed in.

"It's this matter, this king can't wait, I'm afraid of being discovered by the emperor, then handle it carefully, after a while, I want to see the results of the soldiers."

Zhao Wenlu was carried away by the desire for power, and he couldn't listen to other people's bitter words at this moment, let alone remind him.

He has only one goal, and that is to take power as quickly as possible.

When the time comes, these soldiers and officials come to use for his ambitions.

It happened that this turmoil made Zhao Wenlu get a lot of weapons from Boss Kong, and he also found several channels to sell stolen goods.

In this way, there is financial backing.

Peony couldn't persuade Zhao Wenlu at a glance. I didn't want his impulsiveness to affect my plan, so I also cured it and followed it, and advanced the things that I had been preparing for so long.

Everything is too hasty, and there is no complete certainty at all, and the whole family is training soldiers here, and it is also full of situations.

Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi returned to the mansion, the faces of the two of them were pale, although they were not blamed by the old emperor, they still looked worried.

"Miss, uncle, have you met when? The rebellion is simply a frame-up, don't be sad. Cui'er saw that the two of them were the same as the door gods, one on one side, and she felt infiltrated.

Nalan Jin came back to her senses and glanced at Dongfang Yi, "Don't send Qi'er to a private school recently, I will arrange for him to teach in the mansion." ”

Nalan Jin was worried that Zhao Wenlu would take revenge for personal gain, so he protected Dongfang Qi first.

"What's going on, why don't you let the young master go to the private school?" Cui'er asked curiously, feeling that something big was going to happen.

"Do what Jin'er wants, go get busy." Dongfang Yi spoke, distracting Cui'er.

"Yes, uncle."

Cui'er was still at a loss, and she walked to the door, still looking back and taking a second look.

Dongfang Yi gently grabbed Nalan Jin's hand to comfort him, and the worries of the two coincided, so he agreed that Dongfang Qi would stay in the mansion for the time being.

Not only that, Dongfang Yi also added the security of the house. There are three more waves of people patrolling the night, and as soon as there is movement, the bell in the house will ring.

"Dongfang, what should I do? We want to be a thorn in the side of Zhao Wenlu and his gang, the emperor relies on you, and sooner or later he will be targeted by those who have a heart. ”

Nalan Jin's face was full of worry, which was a fear she had never had, and she suddenly felt that she was going to miss a kick in her heart, and she couldn't breathe in pain.

"Don't worry, it won't. I'm going to resign tomorrow. "In order to protect Nalan Mansion and Nalan Jin, Dongfang Yi has no choice but to leave that place of right and wrong.

Dongfang Yi planned to play a fold overnight, explaining his worries and situation to the old emperor.

Thousands of dollars are easy to get, but one will be hard to find.

The old emperor didn't want to lose the East, "You have to be talented and loyal, I know it, I promise you, I won't let you stand in the crosshairs." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has done everything he wants, and it's time to retire." Dongfang Yi directly refused the old emperor's kindness.

"I don't force you to answer immediately, you can think about it." The old emperor lamented his persuasion.
