Guan Di didn't have time to put on the hat, carrying the blood book of 10,000 people in his arms, turned over his horse, and hurried to the palace.

The rain and snow hit his face, like a knife scraping pain, he gritted his teeth and endured the pain, slapped the horse's back hard, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and galloped on the palace road.

……

When he heard that a refugee had entered Beijing with a letter of blood from 10,000 people, he was surprised: "What are you doing?!" Didn't everyone who went to Beijing in the past stop them? Why didn't you stop it this time? Everyone has already arrived in the capital! ”

These hillbillies from Jiangning, Xihai, and Northern Xinjiang often enter Beijing and Shangfang, but they can be stopped in time every time, which makes them dare to act recklessly in the local area, wantonly accumulate wealth, and dominate the local area.

"Lord Wang, in the past, some people went to Beijing to complain, and the movement was very noisy, but this time, this refugee quietly entered Beijing, and the secret agent didn't find the slightest rumor, and his subordinates really had no way of knowing." Chu Qi spread his hands helplessly.

"Lord Wang, now that the 10,000 blood books are in the hands of the commander of the Wu Desi, I heard that Guan Di has gone to the palace, do you want your subordinates to send someone to intercept it?"

Liwang raised his leg and kicked Chu Qi's ass fiercely, kicking him and almost lying on the ground: "Idiot, don't go quickly!" Stop him to the king! ”

"Yes, yes, lord, my subordinates will go!" Chu Qi went out with a roll and ordered someone to stop Guan Di, he was not in such a hurry when he thought about it, even if he rushed to the palace, it would be night, and His Majesty might not meet him.

What they didn't expect was that six commanders came out of Wudesi, and all six of them wore the clothes of the commanders, rode fast horses, and rushed to the palace in six ways.

The people of the Chu Seven faction had no choice but to follow these six people separately, but the two sides were equal in force, and in the end, only three people were intercepted, and they were all fake commanders of the Wu De Division.

"Lord Wang, my subordinates are incompetent, they can't stop all the people, the weather is too bad, I can't see people clearly! Three more commanders have entered the palace! We can't do it in the palace! ”

Chu Qi was anxious and angry, what was going on every day!

Li Wang anxiously paced back and forth: "Hurry up and send someone to the palace to find the concubine, please concubine must find a way to stop these three people!" ”

Damn Guan Di, this king really underestimates you! In such an emergency situation, you can think of using a blindfold?!

In the palace, after Concubine Wan got the news, she immediately brought people to the palace gate, but she was still a step late, and when she arrived at the palace gate, Guan Di had already arrived at the Zichen Palace.

Concubine Wan can only sigh for a long time, there is no way at all, she is no longer favored in front of His Majesty, even if she goes to Zichen Palace, it is useless.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something important to ask Your Majesty!" Guan Di knelt at the door of the Zichen Palace, Li Youcai saw that it was him, knew that he was a good official, and hurried in to report.

Xuan Zheng was using the soup, looking at the twists and turns, sighing that the weather outside was so bad, and the people were going to suffer, listening to Li Youcai say that Guan Di braved such a heavy rain and snow to enter the palace, there must be something important, he put down the soup and wiped his mouth: "Come in, give a seat." ”

After Guan Di saluted and greeted him, he presented the blood book of 10,000 people in his arms, he spoke sincerely, in recent years, the people of Jiang Ning have been bored, and the officials have colluded with corruption and perverted the law, and in the name of the imperial court, they have talked to Xuan Zheng about looting the people's fat and ointment.

He also presented some of the evidence he had gathered.

"Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, the Northern Chu country has been strong and the people have been rich, and the people have all praised Your Majesty as a rare Ming monarch for thousands of years, an emperor through the ages, a peerless Ming monarch, and a lucky star for my Northern Chu! But it is really shameful and hateful that these officials who have lost their conscience have done such a thing in disregard of the national capital of our Northern Chu, and let His Majesty's wisdom be ruined! ”

Guan Di clenched his fists, and said with righteous indignation.

He knew that Xuan Zheng might not have such a strong empathy for the people's lack of clothing, displacement, hunger and hardship, but what he must care about most was his reputation, whether he could leave a strong mark in the history books after his death, and whether he could make the world praise him as an emperor.

"Is there such a thing?!"

After Xuan Zheng read the blood book of 10,000 people, his angry lips trembled.

"Since I found out about this before, why didn't I report it?!" Xuan Zheng asked, looking at the evidence.

"The minister is afraid, this evidence directly points to the officials of the current court, the evidence is insufficient, and the ministers dare not act rashly." Guan Di knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his clothes still dripping, staining the floor.

Seeing this, Xuan Zheng waved his hand and ordered Li Youcai to move the brazier to Guan Di's side.

"In your opinion, what should be done in this matter?" Xuan Zheng closed the bloody book with a "snap" and threw it on the table.

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the minister's humble opinion, it should be thoroughly investigated! To tell the truth, the minister rushed to the palace from Wu Desi, and encountered assassinations one after another along the way, and even when he arrived in the palace, some people tried to stop the minister. ”

When Xuan Zheng heard this, he was even more shocked, in order to suppress this matter, he dared to stop people in the palace? Is it really true that he, the emperor, is dead?!

"Tomorrow morning, I will issue an order to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Ai Qing, stay in the side hall tonight to rest." Xuan Zheng rubbed his temples and said.

Guan Di kowtowed to thank him, he knew that this was His Majesty protecting his safety. If he goes out of the palace and on the way back to the Guanfu, he encounters an assassin again, and his life and death are unpredictable.

"Your Majesty, ...... over there in the Guan Mansion" When Guan Di got the blood book of 10,000 people at that time, he rushed to the palace with a hot heart in his heart, but he forgot about Yun Yishu and Rong'er of the Guan Mansion, if he didn't go back tonight, they would definitely be worried.

"Don't worry, I'll let people tell me, so they don't worry."

The palace sent someone to the Guan Mansion to inform Mrs. Guan that His Majesty had left Master Guan behind and would live in the palace tonight, so that they didn't have to worry.

Before this, Xuan Ming had already sent some secret guards to guard around the Guan Mansion, and asked people to pass the word to Yun Yishu that Guan Di had entered the palace for the disaster in Jiangning and the refugees, so that she could rest assured and raise the fetus with peace of mind.

……

The next morning, Xuan Zheng lost his temper in the court, he worked hard for half a lifetime to get the praise of the people "the first emperor of the ages", and now because of the disaster in the south, his good reputation has been ruined.

He hated that this matter was so big, hated that those local officials collected taxes under the guise of the imperial court, but the silver did not reach the hands of the imperial court at all, and he hated those governors and inspectors for not investigating these things earlier, which caused the people's resentment to boil now.

Xuan Zheng's monstrous anger, frightened a group of officials knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak, after the king and Concubine Wan were punished, the wall fell down and everyone pushed it, but Wan Dexian was exquisite, and he was comfortable in the court, bribing officials up and down, and holding the handle of a group of court officials. Even when Wang had an accident, Wan Shun and Wan Yao had an accident, they couldn't affect him.
