For him, the more prominent Xing Tianze's military exploits are, and the more ministers who ask for credit for the five princes, the more humble the emperor's status is.

If this war took place in another country, or if Xing Tianze was really just a military general, the emperor of the Xingzhao Kingdom would definitely reward him well.

But Xing Tianze's identity and sensitivity, and any credit he made in the eyes of the emperor are the best paving for him to covet the throne and become the emperor in the future.

The emperor still has five or six sons under his knees, and it is impossible for the great country to be handed over to Xing Tianze.

In addition, the military power he currently holds in his hands is also a great hidden danger, which is the biggest threat that can shake the throne under him, and the emperor who secretly thinks of many hidden dangers in his heart, his face has become more and more gloomy.

However, at this moment, Xing Tianze was in the limelight, leading the three armies to drive away the invaders from Qingcang Kingdom, and it was impossible for the emperor to choose this time to attack him......

It took fifteen days from the departure of Black Dragon City to their return to the capital Xing Tianze, after all, there was a distance of thousands of miles between the two places, and if it was not a rapid march, maybe it would be said by the villain that it was an army, not a class teacher.

When they returned to the capital, all the people welcomed them as heroes, and the emperor personally led a group of ministers to greet them at the gate of the palace.

Xing Tianze dismounted, handed the sword at his waist into the hands of a eunuch, came to the emperor and knelt on one knee respectfully: "The emperor is mighty, and Weichen is fortunate to bring back the victory." ”

"Hurry up, why do you have so many rules in the family, besides, you have made great achievements this time, you can tell me how I should reward you." The emperor lifted Xing Tianze up from the ground, took his arm and slowly walked towards the depths of the palace.

"The reason why we were able to achieve victory this time was because of the emperor's outstanding power and the desperate battle of the soldiers who did not care about their lives, and the ministers never dared to be greedy for any credit." Xing Tianze lowered his head slightly and replied respectfully.

When the emperor heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and he patted Xing Tianze's arm neither seriously nor lightly.

His answer was very much in line with the emperor's wishes, because Xing Tianze did not show the appearance of a half-point meritorious master.

"Old Five, after coming back this time, stay in the capital and have a good rest, I will leave the affairs of the army to others to take care of, so I won't bother you to worry about it?" The emperor let go of Xing Tianze's arm and walked quickly forward.

An unwilling look flashed in Xing Tianze's lowered eyes, and the emperor's approach did seem to be a bit unloaded.

He really didn't expect that the emperor was so jealous of him, and he had just returned to the court after victory, and he couldn't wait to take away the military power in his hands......

Subsequently, the emperor issued a series of orders in the Jinluan Palace, rewarding the three armies, and rewarding Xing Tianze with 10,000 taels of gold, taking away the military power in his hands and making him turn back into the five princes who had no real power.

Many ministers have deep dissenting opinions about this, but they are still unable to say it because of the difference between monarchs and ministers.

By the time Xing Tianze returned to the palace, it was already late, and Tao Mingxi had already fallen into a sweet dream.

Wuxian in the study refused all the things that the emperor rewarded him, and after saying goodbye to Xing Tianze, he returned to the room to rest, and he really didn't rest well for more than ten consecutive days.

Early the next morning, Xing Tianze just woke up and heard a big news, as a veteran of the two dynasties, Du Gan was suddenly assassinated last night, and the emperor Longting was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter.

Immediately, there was an uproar in the court, all the officials were sitting in danger, and Xing Tianze's joy of returning victorious was swept away before he could stay for twelve hours.

"What do you think of Du Lao's matter?" Xing Tianze looked at Wuxian sitting opposite in the study, and his eyebrows seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.

"Can't come and see." I took a sip of tea without changing my face, and I heard about such a thing in the morning, and no one would be in a good mood.

"Why? Do you think that the officials on the pamphlet are working together? Xing Tianze took a deep breath.

Du Gan can be said to be the pillar of the court of the criminal Zhaoguo, although he does not have a very good relationship with many officials on weekdays, but there are really few people who dare not be afraid of his majesty.

"Lord Wang, you should know, what kind of character Du Lao is, how many corrupt officials and corrupt officials who deceive good and fear evil dare to do something to him?" Wuji put down the teacup in his hand, and his face was extremely heavy: "In my humble opinion, only one person dares to do this, and only he can have such strength." ”

"What do you mean......" A look of shock appeared in Xing Tianze's eyes, and after thinking carefully for a moment, he let out a heavy breath.

Du Gan is an upright old man, and since he already knows about so many corrupt officials, he will definitely not allow them to continue to exist.

If so many officials are dealt with, there will definitely be a huge turmoil in the DPRK and China, after all, the country still needs people to manage, not to mention that there are many corrupt officials who have Dai Muzhi before, and the person who is the emperor in disguise.

From the beginning of their rush to the north to the present two months or so, there has been no change of officials in the court, which is enough to see what kind of attitude the emperor has maintained on this matter.

A group of corrupt officials compared with Du Gan, an old minister, is undoubtedly the weight between the car and the handsome.

"But this hand of abandoning the handsome car is really amazing, and I was almost deceived." A smile appeared at the corner of the faceless face.

"The emperor is demonstrating to you, the prince, he wants to tell the world through the matter of corrupt officials that you do not have any real power in your hands, and he is the emperor who decides the life and death of everyone." Wuxian sighed slightly: "Lord Wang, I know that you are thinking about the thousands of people in the world, but if you don't fight back harshly this time, it will be even more difficult if you want to do something in the future." ”

Xing Tianze didn't answer Wuji's words, and his breathing gradually became rapid as he held the teacup in his hand tightly.

"Who's going to go under the knife first?" Xing Tianze finally made a decision, and asked in a very cold tone.

"Lord Chen, the secretary of the ministry, is the most suitable person, he is one of the few powerful cards that can be played in the emperor's hand, and the money he has embezzled is really a lot, I guess Du Lao is also very unaccustomed to him." The more he spoke, the smile on his face became more and more intense.
