"Father, what are we going to do next?"

Seeing that Yan Song had recovered to his previous state after resting for a while, Yan Shifan hurriedly asked.

"Alas, this has come to this, go to Your Majesty's side!"

Yan Song sighed and said slowly.

"Father, is there no other way?"

Yan Shifan's face was full of despair, because he was familiar with the Da Ming Law, he was even able to recite the Da Ming Law backwards! He couldn't have been clearer about his fate.

At worst, this matter is the prevarication and inaction of local officials, and at worst, it is a challenge to the emperor's authority! The emperor issued an edict, but the officials under his command did not carry it out, what do you want to do? Do you want to rebel?

This matter is absolutely intolerable for any emperor!

Therefore, Yan Shifan knew very well in his heart that many people would definitely die this time.

"Now that this has happened, where is the other way? Let's go, come with me to Your Majesty's place, and see what Your Majesty does with us!" ”

Yan Song glanced at Yan Shifan, and said weakly.

……

In the capital, there are many people who have learned the news, and Xu Jie is also one of them.

"What do you say? His Majesty has already known that the imperial court has not been able to reduce or reduce taxes for the people all along! ”

After hearing the report of his subordinates, Xu Jie's face was full of horror, and the teacup in his hand also fell, making the sound of broken ceramics.

"It's over, it's over, who the hell stabbed this thing up?"

Xu Jie kept pacing around the room with his hands behind his back, thinking about the possible leaker.

By chance, Xu Jie raised his head and saw the Ruyao vase given to him by His Majesty before, and woke up suddenly.

"It's not a question of who to think about leaking secrets now, you should hurry up and go to Your Majesty's side to ask for the guilt!"

After thinking about this problem, Xu Jie immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare a sedan chair, and before getting on the sedan chair, Xu Jie also looked back at his mansion quite reluctantly.

Because Xu Jie didn't know if he would be able to come back.

"Did you hear that? Elder Yan Ge and Elder Xu Ge have already taken a sedan chair to meet His Majesty and ask His Majesty for their guilt! ”

"Who said that, obviously all five members of the cabinet have gone."

"What are you doing in a daze? The elders have all gone to ask His Majesty for their guilt, if we don't go, do we want to be turned over at that time? ”

"Eh, wait for me!"

……

The Forbidden City, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.

Jiajing got up and poured himself a cup of hot tea, and after taking a sip, he asked Lu Fang, "How did I do the things I told you before?" ”

"Your Majesty, the news has been released, and now those officials are rushing here!"

Lu Fang, who was standing on the side, saw Jiajing asking, and hurriedly said respectfully.

"Well, I'll dry them for a while."

Jiajing put the teacup aside, then picked up the formation cheats and began to study it carefully.

Time passed slowly, and gradually, on the square outside the Hall of Heart Cultivation, there were already dense ministers kneeling.

And Yan Song and the others knelt at the front, looking calm.

"Well, if you can draw the thunder method and the rain prayer technique into a talisman seal, then you don't need to recite the mantra, you can use it directly."

Such an idea suddenly appeared in Jiajing's mind, and he immediately closed the formation cheat book and commanded Lu Fang on the side.

"Lu Fang, go and get me some cinnabar and yellow paper, and when the things are delivered later, you can go out."

"The slave obeys."

Lu Fang bowed slightly to Jiajing, and then walked away from the Heart Cultivation Palace.

In Lu Fang's opinion, this is a reason that His Majesty has found for himself, so that he can go out of the Heart Nourishing Palace openly, and the intention is self-evident.

When Yan Song and the others saw Lu Fang coming out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, they thought that Lu Fang was delivering a message for His Majesty, and they couldn't help but start to get excited.

But Lu Fang ignored them and walked to the side instead.

A moment later, when Lu Fang came back, he was still holding a tray in his hand, and the things on the tray could not be seen clearly at all because Yan Song and the others were kneeling on the ground, just relying on the afterglow of their eyes.

"If only I could see clearly what Lu Fang gave His Majesty, maybe I could find a way to break the situation!"

At the moment, that's what everyone thinks.

"Your Majesty, the things have been delivered."

Lu Fang said respectfully after sending the cinnabar and yellow paper.

"Well, yes, you go down first, no one is allowed to come in without my permission!"

"Got it?"

Jiajing glanced at Lu Fang and commanded in a deep voice.

"The slave obeys."

After Lu Fang finished speaking, he left respectfully, and when he left, he also ordered the guards on the side to close the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Seeing Lu Fang coming out of the Heart Nourishing Hall again, Yan Song and the others were overjoyed again, and secretly said in their hearts: "This time it must be Your Majesty who sent Gonggong Lu over!" Let me wait in. ”

Who knew that Lu Fang came to stand still in front of several people, and had no intention of speaking.

Seeing this, Yan Song gave Lu Fang a look, and for this reason, Lu Fang only shook his head slightly.

"It's over! Your Majesty doesn't even want to see you anymore! ”

"I guess Your Majesty has been extremely disappointed in me."

Yan Song thought so in his heart, his face was full of bitterness, and the rest of the people were the same.

"At this moment, they desperately hope that they can enter the Heart Nourishing Hall again and see His Majesty! Even if you will be convicted for it, you will not hesitate to do so. ”

"There is no other reason, the waiting process is too torturous, they don't know when Your Majesty will punish them!"

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Jiajing dipped a brush in cinnabar, and secretly transported his mana, and began to draw symbols on the cut yellow paper.

Before this, Jiajing had no experience in drawing runes! In his opinion, the so-called talisman is to instill mana on paper in advance, and write the corresponding formula, which can be activated directly when it is to be used.

Therefore, although the runes drawn by Jiajing are different from the regular runes, the results are the same.

Jiajing was wrapped in lilac mana, and the mantras written on the yellow paper also emitted a lilac light, and he was relieved when Jiajing dropped the last stroke.

"Whew~ It's finally done, this thing is too laborious!"

Jiajing put down the brush in his hand and muttered to himself silently.

What Jiajing had previously engraved was Lei Fa's mantra, a total of twenty words.

"Well, now that the sigil has been drawn, it's time to give it a try."

Jiajing thought so, and instilled mana into it, without reciting the mantra during the whole process.

And at the moment when the lilac mana in Jiajing's body poured into the yellow paper, the originally clear sky instantly accumulated a large area of dark clouds.

Suddenly, thunder rushed in the sky, lightning and thunder.

Immediately afterward, I saw a few arm-thick thunderbolts falling on the square outside the Heart Cultivation Palace! When the ministers looked down the place where the thunder had fallen, they saw that it was scorched black, and the floor tiles had long since disappeared, splitting a hole with black smoke.

"Your Majesty is angry!"

I saw that among the many ministers kneeling in the square, I don't know who it was, took the lead in shouting such a sentence.

"Yes, Your Majesty was able to communicate with the heavens when he was sacrificing, so that he could rain down."

"Right now, it must be that God has sensed His Majesty's emotions, and only then has he sent down divine thunder to punish me and others!"

"Please also ask Your Majesty to forgive your sins, Weichen is guilty!"

"Wechen doesn't dare anymore, Wechen will definitely work hard in the future!"

"Please beg Your Majesty to spare Weichen this time!"

For a while, many ministers who had been kneeling in the square did not care about the stone bricks on the ground, and while telling their crimes, they kowtowed heavily, even though their foreheads were already bloody, they refused to stop.

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Jiajing couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that his previous conjecture had been confirmed, and then drew a few runes, this time not only the thunder method, but also the mantra of the rain prayer technique.

"Well, sure enough, the drawing of the talisman seal does not have to be limited to form, as long as it is roughly the same."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he put away the talisman seal drawn by himself, and said to himself silently.
