Half a day before the return of Wanli.

Hundreds of officials were in turmoil, and the second assistant Xu Jie, led the Qingliu officials, and went out of the city for thirty miles, ready to kneel to welcome the prince of Wanli.

The crown prince, the prince of the country, the supreme in the future.

Therefore, Wanli is qualified to accept the kneeling of hundreds of officials.

Even if the Yan Party officials were not happy, they had no choice but to pinch their noses, and chased out of the city without half a point behind the Qingliu officials, and they were also ready to welcome the prince back to the court.

West Garden.

Inside the retreat, it's a different scene.

Shoufu Yan Song knelt on the ground, with a humble and loyal attitude.

"Shousuke is not going to kneel down to greet the prince, what are you doing here?"

Emperor Jiajing's immortal voice floated out from behind the curtain.

He seems to be no longer an emperor on earth, but an immortal in the sky.

Yan Song kowtowed first, and then answered.

"The old minister is His Majesty's minister, not the prince's subordinate officer."

"The duty of the minister is to be loyal to His Majesty, handle the affairs of the court, and coordinate the hundred officials to pacify the people."

"To put it bluntly, the minister is here to take care of the family for His Majesty. If he doesn't take care of his family, the old minister doesn't dare to leave his post without permission. ”

What is a human spirit?

Yan Song is like this, he is a human spirit.

When you heard that the prince was back, you went to kneel outside the city to greet him.

I Yan Song didn't go, not only did I not go, but I also served by His Majesty's side all the time.

You Xu Jie forgot your duty as an important minister in the cabinet, but I, Yan Song, have not forgotten.

That's it, but it's just on the surface.

The meaning of the shadows, I only have the emperor in my eyes, and I am only loyal to the emperor.

As for you Xu Jie.

Hehe.

The old man didn't say a bad word about you who was disloyal and unfilial, but how does Your Majesty understand it, that is Your Majesty's freedom.

After Yan Song finished speaking, Emperor Jiajing in the curtain was silent.

Old Yan Song was not in a hurry.

He served Emperor Jiajing for decades, and he really knew this emperor too well.

Silence is not a denial of oneself.

Quietly down the opposite!

Emperor Jiajing is savoring Yan Song's words, and the more he tastes, the more 'taste' he has!

The time for half-baked incense has passed.

In the curtain, the voice of Emperor Jiajing finally came out again.

"Xia Ji."

This name is too far away, but even if it spans thousands of years, it is still like thunder!

Yan Song didn't answer immediately, he knew that Emperor Jiajing's words hadn't finished yet.

"According to the results of Lu Bing's investigation over the years."

"He is the reincarnation of Xia Wei."

"The Emperor of a Generation was reincarnated as the son of an immortal?"

"Hehe, Weizhong, what do you think?"

Calling the word, not being worthy of the official position, is cordial.

Yan Song knelt down and played.

"Fifty in the way of heaven, forty-nine in the sky, one of them."

"I think that reincarnation is the mercy of heaven, leaving a glimmer of life for the common people."

"Anyone who has no hope of cultivating immortals, who has failed to cross the catastrophe, and all mortal plants, trees, insects, fish, birds and beasts, can enter reincarnation when their longevity is over, rebuild a lifetime, and fight for immortal fate again."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is Xia Ji, not Xia Ji. The things of the past life are all in the past. ”

"In this life, he is fortunate to be reincarnated in the Ming Dynasty, so he should always remember his Zhu Ming royal bloodline."

"If you indulge in the glory of your past life, you are so ungrateful that you forget your ancestors. Even His Majesty is magnanimous, and the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty cannot be spared! ”

After Yan Song finished speaking, he bowed and pleaded again.

"The minister is vainly discussing the affairs of the temple society, a capital crime!"

The curtain slowly opened.

Emperor Jiajing, the Supreme Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, wearing a Taoist robe and a grass ring, was looking at Yan Song with a smile on his face.

"Weizhong, you're fine."

"You always remember your duty as a minister, and I am very relieved."

Old Yan Song didn't even dare to say it.

"Hehehe......"

Emperor Jiajing smiled mysteriously, but his gaze gradually turned cold.

"Okay."

"Reincarnation?"

"They like to play with reincarnation, and they are obsessed with the future?"

"My great kindness, but I forgot to clean it?"

"It seems that it is necessary to remind certain people."

"My Ming Taizu once said that the golden cup is a common drink, and the white blade is not forgiven!"

Yan Song was ecstatic in his heart, but on the surface, he was not leaky.

"Only in the middle."

"The minister is here."

"You also go out of the city and go and greet you."

"I don't dare."

"You go, go boldly, I let you go!"

Emperor Jiajing said, the smile on his face gradually cruel.

"I'm going to show you a good show."

……

…………

Thirty miles outside the capital, the eunuch announced the arrest of the national teacher Lan Daoxing in front of Wanli.

He also ordered Wanli to preside over the trial and Lu Bing to review the deputy trial.

No one knows that if the prince of Wanli returns safely from Nanchao, his first task is to lead 300,000 wolf soldiers to the north and subdue the lost territory of Yunzhou City.

As a result, interrogating the national teacher Lan Daoxing is actually more important than recovering the lost territory?

Yan Mansion.

"Hahaha!"

"I'm laughing to death!"

"What about Wanli's safe return?"

"In front of civil and military officials, His Majesty didn't save him any face?"

"Father, in my opinion, I'm afraid that the prince of Wanli won't be able to be a few days old!"

Yan Shifan laughed for a while, but he didn't see his father agree with his statement.

Old Yan Song was like a stone carving, sitting motionless on the Taishi's chair.

"Daddy, is the child wrong?" Yan Shifan didn't believe it.

Yan Song did not directly answer his son's question.

He sighed faintly.

"Idiot."

"Your Majesty asked the crown prince to preside over Lan Daoxing, which is not only a warning, but also to examine him."

"Lan Daoxing is a master of the Nine Grades of the Hedao Realm, and it is also a certificate of nomination."

"Keeping Lan Daoxing means that Wanli will never forget the identity of Emperor Xia in his previous life, which will inevitably cause His Majesty to break with the crown prince."

"Killing Lan Daoxing is to cut off the future, Wanli only admits his identity as the bloodline of the Ming royal family, and he can be at peace with His Majesty."

Yan Shifan was shocked when he heard this.

"That's bad!"

"With Wanli's temperament, abandon the car to protect the handsome, and exchange the head of Lan Daoxing for the stability of his princely status, there is no doubt about it!"

"Let's be busy for a long time, King Jing still can't replace Wanli?"

Yan Shifan is like a frosted eggplant.

He is a very intelligent man, but he is impetuous, and he is the most impatient.

Old Yan Song's intelligence may not be as good as his son's, but his qi cultivation kung fu is ten times better than him.

I only heard Shoufu say slowly: "We lost Hu Zongxian and subdued Yunzhou City, unless Your Majesty drove the expedition in person, the only one who was most qualified to command 300,000 wolf soldiers in the Ming Dynasty was the prince." As for King Jing, His Majesty will not consider it. ”

Yan Shifan was speechless.

King Jing has a bit of success, he still knows.

This person is a little literate, but he doesn't have half a talent.

It's okay to be a king, but it's impossible to expect King Jing to expand his territory.

"Phew!"

"So Bai is happy?"

"In order to break through to the Mahayana realm, Wanli cultivates to lead the army. Unless he loses again in Yunzhou City, King Jing will have no play in his life. ”

"Father, you used Wanli's identity in your previous life to sow discord in front of Your Majesty, it doesn't seem to have much effect?"

Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, there are only two people who dare to say in front of Yan Song that he is not doing well.

One is Emperor Jiajing, and the other is Yan Shifan.

"Hehehe......" Yan Song smiled slowly and glanced at his son. The old man is stupid and incompetent, and he disappointed Xiao Ge Lao? ”

Yan Shifan realized that he had said the wrong thing.

He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Lao Yan Song again and again to confess.

Yan Song didn't let his son get up, but said: "Lan Daoxing is a master of the Nine Grades of the Dao Realm after all, and it is not easy to get rid of him." Yan Shifan, don't be too greedy. ”

……

…………

Jinyiwei, edict prison.

The last Ming minister who was imprisoned here was Hu Zongxian, Yan Song had greeted him in advance, and Hu Zongxian's treatment was not bad.

The clothes and bedding are clean and tidy, there is meat for three meals, there is no shortage of water and wine, and there are four treasures in the study.

This time, the prisoner was replaced by the national teacher Lan Daoxing.

It was also Yan Song who greeted him in advance, but the treatment was completely different.

The blackest prison, the dirtiest environment.

Rats and bugs crawl everywhere, and all the unused buckets are piled up here.

Lan Daoxing, the once prominent and noble and transcendent teacher of the Ming Dynasty, was covered in blood and tattered prison clothes.

Obviously, this is a punishment that has just been used.

"Good backbone."

Lu Bing, the Governor of Jinyi Wei, personally inspected Lan Daoxing's injuries and couldn't help but praise them.

Nine Rank Master of the Hedao Realm?

Unless Emperor Jiajing personally takes action, if the Blue Dao Xing is bent on escaping, at least fifty percent of them are sure to escape from the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

However, he chose to sit back and wait for his death.

When Lu Bing broke into the National Teacher's Mansion with Jinyiwei, Lan Daoxing just dismissed the disciples and grandchildren, and then he was arrested.

The Thirteenth Taibao of Jinyi Wei, who came with Lu Bingtong, even wrote a suicide note for his family before leaving.

Unexpectedly, the national teacher was captured, and the Thirteen Taibao were unscathed.

In prison.

Lan Daoxing was covered in wounds, but the most terrifying thing was his abdomen.

An iron ring pierced through the flesh and buckled Lan Daoxing's body.

The dantian qi sea is locked, even if there is a Hedao Nine Grades of cultivation, it is like a waste person at this moment.

Lu Bing didn't come alone.

His identity is just a guide.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you think we are going to be tried in the edict prison, or are we going to take people out?" Lu Bin bowed down and asked Prince Wanli thoughtfully.

Wanli ignored Lu Bing's question, and only said coldly: "The interrogation has not started yet, who allowed Jinyiwei to be executed?" ”

"This ......"

Lu Bing didn't expect that Wanli would refute his face as soon as he came up.

Can't you see with the wisdom of the crown prince that the torture of the national teacher is obviously a disadvantage from the prince by His Majesty?

"Answer Lone's question." Prince Wanli's tone became more and more cold.

Alas!

Lu Bing sighed in his heart, and cast an apologetic look at a brocade guard beside him.

Suddenly!

Lu Bing clenched his right hand into a fist and blasted out without warning.

With just one punch, he hit the door of the Jinyi guard beside him.

The brocade-clothed guard didn't even have time to scream, and his head cracked like a watermelon, leaving only a headless corpse standing in place, dead no longer dead.

"The prince atoned for his sins."

Lu Bing knelt on one knee and clenched his fists to plead guilty.

"The ministers are not strict, so that there is a scandal of lynching in Jinyi Guard's prison."

"Zhu Liu, who is in charge of thousands of households in prison, executed Lan Dao without asking for instructions, and has now accepted the crime and died."

The Thirteenth Taibao of Jinyiwei is the existence of the Daming Jinyiwei whose status is second only to Lu Bing.

These thirteen people were loyal to Lu Bing, and privately served Lu Bing as a disciple.

Among them, the weakest person, Zhu Shisan, is also cultivating in the five grades of the God Realm.

The strongest Zhu Da, his cultivation is already a product of the Dao realm.

The thirteenth Taibao is the biggest hole card in Lu Bing's hand, and today he was forced to kill one person with his own hands, not to mention Lu Bing's great loss, and the remaining twelve Taibao's loyalty to him will also be greatly tested.

On this trip to prison, Lu Bingshi was bleeding from his heart, and he lost a lot!

"Alas!"

"I am loyal to Your Majesty and investigate the national teacher Lan Daoxing, but I didn't expect the prince's revenge to come so quickly."

Lu Bing was still kneeling, but there was a sneer from Prince Wanli above his head.

"Huh."

"Lone remembers, it seems that my father set the rules in his early years?"

"Anyone who is arrested by Jinyi Wei and put in prison will be punished first, is it not a violation of the law of the Ming Dynasty?"

Lu Bing only felt his blood surging!

He has already killed Zhu Liu, but the prince said these words again, how heartbreaking?

"Lu Dudu is really anxious."

Prince Wanli seemed to be smiling.

"With a casual word, Lu Dudu killed his most loyal subordinate? This matter spreads, who will dare to be loyal to Lu Du in the future? ”

"Governor? Hurry up, right? ”

Lu Bing felt humiliated, but helpless.

In the Ming Dynasty, the most honorable person was Emperor Jiajing, followed by the crown prince.

As a minister, he has to endure many grievances.

Lu Bing took a deep breath and staggered to his feet.

"The minister asks the prince, and ...... next"

"Lu Dudu can go out."

Prince Wanli directly issued an order to expel guests.

"The prince is going to interrogate the prisoners alone."

Lu Bing's face changed: "No!" The crown prince, the minister is the deputy judge ......"

"Just the deputy judge, and dare to take the idea for the prince who is the chief judge?"

Prince Wanli raised his voice and immediately suppressed Lu Bing's voice.

Officialdom is a place where officials crush people to death.

What's more, Wanli is the dignity of the prince.

Lu Bing's face was flushed.

In Daming, how honorable is his status?

Emperor Jiajing's milk brother!

The first assistant and the second assistant respect it, and the hundred officials are afraid of it.

He is the god in the heart of the Ming Jinyiwei, and the 'ancestor' in the mouth of the eunuchs of the factory guard.

But today, Lu Bing found that in the eyes of the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he was just a foreign minister who recruited and went.

"Minister...... Retirement. ”

Lu Bing is gone.

He rushed out of the prison dungeon in one breath, and it was not until he was on the ground, facing the bright sun and crisp air, that the depression in his chest was slightly relieved.

"Governor, you have blood on your hands? What about Zhu Liu's others? ”

Twelve men with profound cultivation, wearing flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives on their waists, surrounded them.

Lu Bing's mood that had just been relieved was immediately cloudy again.

Seeing that he was silent, the Twelve Taibao did not dare to say more.

After a long time, Lu Bingcai slowly spoke: "Yesterday, Xiao Ge Lao asked me to drink again?" ”

"Yes." Zhu Da hugged his fists and said: "The governor said that the timing is sensitive, and he intends to reject the little pavilion elder." ”

"No need."

Lu Bing shook his head.

"I have heard for a long time that Xiaoge has collected the world's famous wines, so I am cheeky...... Go try it. ”

When Zhu Da heard this, his face was full of disbelief.

No one in the world knows that Lu Bing, an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, is one of the few who can maintain neutrality between the Yan Party and the Xu Party.

……

…………

Edict, the deepest part.

Prince Wanli stood still in front of Lan Daoxing, his eyes wandering, and he saw his injuries in his eyes.

Lan Daoxing was originally unconscious, but at some point, he had opened his eyes.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally Wanli spoke first.

"I've come to visit you."

In ancient times, he was a famous minister of Great Xia, a pedantic celestial, and once served Xia Ji loyally with Guan Longxiao.

At the end of the Xia Dynasty, he migrated to the south nest.

Zhonggu didn't go to Nanchao together, he was ordered by Xia Wei to change to soup, and then he didn't know what to do.
