When Wu Zhidun was taken away by Dali Temple, he seemed extremely calm.

It seems that the hysterical person before is not him, the person who roared at Li Hongzhi arrogantly is not him, the person who is so cowardly and frightened that his whole body trembles is not him, only the person who is calm and sees death as if he were at home is him.

Before he left, he said to Sanyu, "It's not a pity for me to die, but can I ...... Don't be embarrassed? ”

"In this matter, the slave will talk to the saint, and the deputy minister will go all the way." Sanyu nodded, watching Wu Zhidun gradually walk away.

When he turned back, there were already courtiers in the main hall.

Depression, that's pretty much it.

Li Hongzhi slowly walked down from the dragon chair, looking at Sanyu who was standing outside the main hall and did not come in, as well as Yun Sheng, Gu Li, Zhang Tong who followed him, and Guan Ning, who had never seen him.

Thankfully, he was a lonely man in decline.

"Come in." Li Hongzhi said.

Yun Sheng glanced at Sanyu, Sanyu raised his arm and gestured, and Yun Sheng crossed the threshold.

"The daughter of the people sees the saint, long live my emperor, long live." Yun Sheng was about to kneel, but when he saw Li Hongshang step forward to support her, Yun Sheng was slightly stunned and looked up at Li Hongzhi.

"It's the royal family who can't stop you."

"Thank you for your relief." Yun Sheng tried to endure it so that tears did not fall from his eyes.

"The eldest grandson has been stigmatized for many years, and now the truth is revealed, and the truth should be returned to the people and comforted by the spirit of heaven." Li Hongzhi grabbed Yun Sheng's wrist tightly, and said the words word by word that he didn't know how many times he had silently recited in his heart, he looked at Sanyu and said, "Draft the will, announce it to the world." ”

"Yes."

Not long after, the imperial list was posted in all corners of the capital.

The officials who colluded with Wu Zhidun, no matter how big or small, were all investigated by Dali Temple, and the eldest grandson Yunhua also returned, and according to Li Hongzhi's intentions, the officials were reinstated.

No one would have thought that Wu Zhidun confessed his guilt so quickly, and even the book in Yunsheng's hand had not yet had time to be handed over to Li Hongzhi. Based on Zhou Xuanming's two directories alone, Li Hongzhi checked most of the officials of the imperial court, and the treasury was unprecedentedly full.

"Look, the people are fat and the people, is their way of being an official is to squeeze the bitter blood from the people?" Li Hongzhi frowned, holding a list of confiscated family property in his hand, column after column, all of which were shocking figures.

Yunsheng's book was given to Li Hongzhi in the end.

The merchants who had traded with Wu Zhidun, as well as those on the rivers and lakes, because they were not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and they acted secretively, even if there was something written by the eldest grandson pheasant himself, it would take a lot of time and manpower to check it.

Li Hongzhi handed it over to Gu Li to do it.

Officials and businessmen colluded, eating all the flesh of the people and drinking all the blood of the people.

Li Hongzhi can even see this Li family's country, which is already full of devastation, and hopefully, it is not too late.

The imperial court's move to change blood was told to him by Zhou Xuanming early in the morning, which was a very bold idea, in order to be able to prevent the imperial court from collapsing when this incident happened, Zhou Xuanming left Beijing, and the students who were selected by him over the years were not many in number, but they were enough to replace the Beijing officials who were replaced.

Above the court, at a glance, there are all young and unfamiliar faces.

But in Li Hongzhi's view, those youthfulness and nervousness are the future of the country.

"Zhou Xuanming, all his life for the country and the people, he is your teacher, but also my teacher, you can stand here now because of him."

Before Li Hongzhi could finish speaking, a person stood up in the crowd.

Li Hongzhi narrowed his eyes before he recognized him as Si Ting.

"Si Aiqing has something to say?"

"Your Majesty, Weichen wants to ask, how did the teacher die?"

He said it in a loud voice, almost circling around the hall several times, and all the officials who had been taught by Zhou Xuanming raised their heads.

They all knew that Zhou Xuanming was dead, but they didn't know how Zhou Xuanming died, Zhou Xuanming had warned them, don't go to him, don't give him gifts, and don't ask around about him.

Li Hongzhi was silent for a long time and said, "I was killed in the school." ”

"That'...... His bones ......"

"In accordance with Mr. Zhou's last wishes, we have cremated him and his ashes have been sent to his residence in Fan County. If you have time, you can also go to Fan County to see Mr. Zhou's widow. ”

"Widow?!"

"The teacher still has the children left?"

"Great, there is a successor to the Zhou family!"

"Heaven forbid."

……

All of a sudden, above the court, everyone was happy.

When he went down to the court, Yun Sheng was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by Sanyu.

"Mr. Chang, what's the matter?"

"That's right, the saint said, I want to invite Miss Changsun to stay and have lunch together." Sanyu smiled.

Yun Sheng hesitated a little, pointed in the direction outside the palace, and said, "But the adults are still waiting for me, so I won't ......."

"Eh, these are the words of the saint, Chrysostom Yuyan, but the slave doesn't dare to say it for you."

Since Sanyu said this, Yun Sheng didn't want to embarrass others, sighed lightly, looked at the new ministers who were slowly walking outside the main hall, turned back to Sanyu and said, "Where is the saint?" ”

"Come with the minions."

When following behind Sanyu, Yun Sheng was still thinking about Zhang Jiusheng, I don't know if he had learned to be a little better and find a warmer place to wait.

At that time, Zhang Jiusheng was sitting in someone's restaurant, dishes were served plate after plate, and tea was also added to pot after pot, but he couldn't wait for Yunsheng to come out, even Zhang Tong came, and Yunsheng hadn't appeared yet.

"You two are here to eat?" Zhang Jiusheng looked at the two sitting in front of him, his chopsticks didn't move a few times, but the food on the table was a lot less.

"My lord, I didn't say it, the food in this restaurant is notoriously delicious and cheap, but I didn't expect you to choose this one just after you came, and your eyes are vicious. I don't know much in the capital, so it's rare to come here to eat, and I really borrowed your light. Gu Li gave a thumbs up, then buried his head and ate violently.

Zhang Jiusheng frowned, picked up chopsticks and knocked on the table, Zhang Tong raised his head: "What's wrong, my lord?" ”

"Didn't you just come out of the palace? What about Yunsheng? What about Yunsheng? Why didn't you bring her out for me? Zhang Jiusheng drank the tea one by one, and on this cold day, he only felt that his inner fire was vigorous, and a wave of irritability kept rushing up from the dantian.

Zhang Tong blinked, and then kicked Gu Li.

"Huh? Yes? ”

"Ah what? What about you, what about Yunsheng? ”

Gu Li reacted for a while before he came back to his senses and said, "Saint Liuyunsheng has had lunch." ”

Zhang Jiusheng's eyes widened, and as soon as he threw his chopsticks, he was about to go out, but Zhang Tong shouted: "My lord, where are you going?" ”

"I'll go to the palace and take Yun Sheng out, and I will know that the dog emperor is not bad and kind!"

Zhang Tong quickly swallowed a piece of meat, threw down the chopsticks and stood up and hugged Zhang Jiusheng's arm: "My lord, the saint is not that kind of person, probably I want to thank the eldest grandson's family, now that the eldest grandson is dead, and Yunhua is reinstated, their brother and sister must be in the palace, Yunsheng will not be alone." ”

"If you say I'll believe it, I'll just see that the dog emperor looks at Yun Sheng's eyes wrong, isn't this just an opportunity? No, I have to go into the palace. Zhang Jiusheng pulled Zhang Tong's arm, trying to pull him off of himself.

Gu Li saw that the two of them were having a good time, knocked on the table with the head of his chopsticks, and said: "Don't make trouble, based on my observation of the saint for so many years, the saint will not have anything to do with Miss Changsun, the saint has someone in his heart, haven't you seen that no matter how bad the reputation of the saint is for so many years, he has not established a queen?" ”

When Zhang Jiusheng and Zhang Tong heard this, they both stopped moving.

"When the saint was still the prince, he traveled among the people for a period of time, and it was at that time that he met a scholarly lady and fell in love at first sight. It's a pity that people have already promised people, and the saint's sincerity has been put into the water, and I haven't seen any woman think about it so far. ”

"Really?" Zhang Jiusheng was a little skeptical.

"Lie to you, I'm a pig."

"Why didn't I know about this?"

Gu Li glanced at Zhang Tong and said, "At that time, like Nalan, you were obsessed with autopsies all day long, where did you still have the slightest intention to put it on others?" ”

Zhang Tong scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"My lord, don't worry, the eldest grandson and prime minister love his daughter the most, the clan in-laws are the most unhappy, and the saint will not let his daughter enter the harem. What kind of place the harem is, no one will know better than the Holy One. ”

"Eh, before the saint became the emperor, didn't he have a crown princess?" Zhang Jiusheng became interested.

"Yes, but the crown princess was so disgraceful that she had only been through the door for a year, and she didn't even leave a child, so she went. The saint and her relationship are very close, after the crown princess is killed, there are only two side rooms, until the saint ascends the throne, there is still no intention of establishing a queen. ”

"That'...... What about the two side rooms? ”

"It's the current Concubine Liu and Concubine Li, Concubine Liu heard that she is pregnant, these two people are not favored in the harem, but they are not deserted, the saint will still go over every three or five days, and they will give a gift every New Year's holiday, but ......" Gu Li stopped talking, and then took a sip of wine before saying: "It's just that even if they look like the eldest lady again, they are not the eldest lady." ”

The eight sufferings in the world, birth, old age, sickness and death, resentment and hatred, love and separation, five extractions, and can't ask for it.

Li Hong alone tasted it thoroughly.

"The saint's heart is like a mirror, this palace is a place to eat people, and the royal family can't live with the eldest grandson, so don't worry, my lord, the saint will not be willing to let Miss Eldest Sun sink into the harem."

A gust of wind blew from the window, blowing open the hidden window, carrying a little snow into the windowsill, and the heating in the house suddenly blew away a little, and the flames in the brazier swayed.

The three of them looked and found that the sky was clean.

"Will the Holy Lord be established?" Zhang Jiusheng asked suddenly.

Gu Li glanced at him and thought for a while: "Probably, the harem must not be left without an owner." ”
