Chapter 397: Throwing Yourself into the Net
At this time, I saw Zheng He bow to them again,
"My lordship, just now our Highness has sent a word that all the rebels on the list have been arrested according to what they said, and they are now in the courtyard. It's just that because the information I have is incomplete, I am worried that there will be some omissions or mistakes, and I hope that the two adults will enter the house to inspect, and if there is any omission, it is good to arrest it in time. β
"This ......"
Zhang Hao really has no excuse to shirk this time.
And Xie Gui beside him was a military general after all, and he was bolder than him, and he secretly felt that this King Yan could really tolerate it, so he asked,
"I'm here to ask you, where is your Highness now?"
"Oh, what the hell is this......"
Zheng He smiled slightly and said,
"Our Highness has been sick, and although he has improved a little now, his body is still very weak, and he can only wait for the two adults in the main hall, and he cannot come to greet him in person."
"Where, how dare the lower officials come here to greet King Lao Yan?"
Xie Gui sneered for a while, and then turned to Zhang Yu,
"What do you think?"
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Yu asked with palpitations.
Xie Gui said in a low voice,
"Xiaguan means, we can't just stalemate like this, don't forget that the purpose of you and I coming here is to arrest Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng. Although there is no evidence to prove that they are in the Yan Wang's mansion, judging from the current attitude of the Yan King, he must also see that the situation is unfavorable to him, and he doesn't want to cause trouble, so he wants to resolve the matter. We can push the boat down the river and catch some of his subordinates, if we can catch Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng, it's better, if we can't catch them, it's not in vain, and there is an explanation in the court, isn't it? β
"But aren't you afraid that King Yan will be unfavorable to us?"
Zhang Hao asked rhetorically.
Xie Gui "hummed" lightly and said,
"Unfavorable? He has shown weakness to us now. What's more, just because his palace is now surrounded like an iron bucket, it should be him who is not at the disadvantage, how dare he attack you and me. β
"yes...... But,"
Zhang Yu is still not at ease,
"If, according to what you said, we caught the people in his house and retreated, wouldn't it be better to startle the snake and then run away from King Yan?"
"You and I don't have to worry about it,"
Xie Gui actually smiled and said,
"Anyway, it is Zhang Xin who is responsible for arresting King Yan, and if he escapes, it is also his Zhang Xin's responsibility, so what does it have to do with you and me."
"Your Excellency!"
At this time, Zhang Yu nodded frequently when he listened, and felt that what he said was indeed reasonable.
"Then Lord Yixie, we went in to see King Yan, and we also had an errand with the court and Lord Qi."
The idea of the two people is very good, but they ignore one point, that is, the opponent they face is the talented Yan King Zhu Di, how can it be so easy to be controlled by others.
Now that it has been discussed, the two highest civil and military local officials in Beiping Mansion have decided to go to the palace to talk to His Royal Highness King Yan, if this matter can be resolved as soon as possible, it will certainly be good to get rid of this heavy burden. But they never expected that when they stepped into the gate of the palace, they had already stepped on Huangquan Road.
Zhang Yu and Xie Gui got down from the carriage and ordered their subordinates to guard the palace well, and then walked into the palace gate, their relatives wanted to follow, but they were politely stopped by Zheng He.
"Everyone, please forgive me for my rudeness, this is the Yanwang Mansion, and people with insufficient grades are not allowed to enter."
"This ......"
Hearing him say this, Zhang Yu and Xie Gui also stopped and looked back, only to find that what they said was not bad at all, and among the people he brought, none of them were qualified to enter this palace, and in desperation, Zhang Yu waved his hand,
"Okay, you just wait where you are, and we'll come out after talking to His Royal Highness King Yan."
"Two adults, please."
Zheng He politely led the way in front and headed straight for the main hall, followed by Chai Jingnan, and Bai Qing had already instructed the palace guards to close the gate again.
As the two heavy doors closed tightly, all the people in the mansion breathed a sigh of reliefβ
It turned out that at the moment when Zhu Di decided to open the door of the mansion, almost everyone's hearts rose to their throats, worried that the soldiers who were surrounding outside would rush in indiscriminately, in that case, even if there were masters like Zhu Pingle and Chai Jingnan in the mansion, it would be useless.
However, Zhu Di, who was sitting in the hall and was supposed to be in the most dangerous situation, was very calm, and even comforted the humanity around him.
"You can rest assured, with this king here, I will see which of those people outside the door dare to mess around."
In this way, everyone's mood calmed down a little, and what made them feel miraculous was that Zhang Yu and Xie Gui really entered the mansion and threw themselves into the net as His Royal Highness expected.
Hearing the sound of footsteps from far and near, Zhu Di motioned for Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng and others to hide behind for the time being, leaving only Zhu Pingle, who was dressed as a servant, and his eyes went straight to the entrance of the hall.
The first to walk in was Zheng He, who led the way in front, and after coming in, he said,
"Your Highness, the two adults are here."
"Okay, give me a seat."
Zhu Di's voice sounded weak, and at the same time a little trembling, people who don't know will really think that he is indeed still sick, at least Zhang Yu and Xie Gui have this illusion.
In fact, how did these two people know that the weakness was deliberately pretended, but the trembling revealed in it was completely because of anger. That's right, at this moment, in Zhu Di's heart, almost half of it has been occupied by anger, as soon as he saw the two of them, the situation of the tragic death of the two loyal subordinates who had followed him for more than ten years appeared in front of him.
Sure enough, there's still no way to look at these two people directly-
Zhu Di was really worried that once he looked at them, the anger in his chest would explode at that time, so he didn't look at them, but just commanded gently.
Zhang Yu and Xie Gui naturally couldn't guess what the imperial uncle in front of them was thinking, and seeing that although the other party didn't look at him squarely, his attitude was still relatively gentle, so he thanked him and sat down in the position guided by Zheng He.
At this time, Chai Jingnan also walked into the lobby and stood behind the fourth uncle, watching all the movements in front of the hall expressionlessly.
"His Royal Highness King Yan,"
Seeing that the other party had not made a sound again, Xie Gui had no choice but to open his mouth first,
"Thank you for agreeing to cooperate with the arrest of the lower officials, the two of us are also forced to do it this time, I hope Your Highness can understand."
"Well said,"
Zhu Di leaned back in the chair, looking like he was completely holding on, his eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't even want to move.
"Of course the king can understand that the two adults are working hard for the place, but I don't know what crimes those people in my house have committed?"
"This, after being verified by his subordinates, is suspected of plotting against them."
Zhang Hao also came to the spiritual path at this time.
