Fan Li was already trembling, and said continuously: "Your Majesty, if you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse!" The minions are wronged! At this time, Xiao Jing stepped forward, pulled Fan Li, and motioned for him to leave, but Fan Li refused, and even pushed Xiao Jing, almost stumbling. Zhengde's face was embarrassed, and he said: "Father-in-law Xiao, don't go to this troubled water, this matter has nothing to do with you, you go back to the celebrant supervisor." Xiao Jing wanted to speak and stopped, so he had to give a deep salute and slowly retreated. And the two little fathers-in-law were also taken away by him.

At this time, only Fan Li and us were left in the palace, and they were quiet for a while. Zhengde stared at Fan Li, gradually regained his normal color, and said: "Fan Li, you are different from Wang Yue, I advise you not to say any more, go back and rest!" I heard that Zhengde still let Fan Li go, while Liu Jin and the others were triumphant, and said: "Father-in-law Fan, the emperor has opened the grace of heaven, and you still don't kowtow to apologize?" Fan Li glanced at it silently, took a long breath, and said: "Your Majesty, the slave was promoted by the first emperor and was able to serve as an errand in the ceremonial supervisor, you said that I colluded with the courtiers and even befriended Mongolia, is there any evidence?" ”

Zhengde was a little deflated, turned his head, seemed to look at me, and said: "You, as well as Wang Yue, and Han Wen, by the way, and the three elders, often meet privately to discuss state affairs, these evidences, Jinyiwei has collected; A few days ago, Mongolian officials, pretending to be merchants, came to the capital, gave gifts to Wang Yue, and after Wang Yue's approval, they observed the terrain around the capital and drew a map. Don't you know what they want to do? ”

"As a central figure of the Ming Dynasty, how can you get along with the enemies of the Ming Dynasty? Is there going to be another civil engineering change? Zhengde's voice became higher and higher.

Everyone was shocked when they heard it, they didn't expect this young son of heaven to have such a loud voice, Fan Li shook his head and said: "This matter must be something out of nothing, Wang Yue's father-in-law is dedicated to the country, how can he make friends with Mongolia?" ”

Zhengde clenched his fists as if he had made up his mind, and then he loosened up, laughed, and said, "Where is Lin Sheng?" Lin Sheng answered and strode in.

"Lin Sheng, tell me what you know!" Zhengde said quietly.

"Yes!" Lin Sheng gave a salute, turned his head, and said to Fan Li: "Father-in-law Fan, that day, Gonggong Wang Yue called me to the ceremonial supervisor, and took out the approval document of the household department, saying that there are Mongolian merchants entering Beijing to sell, and it is convenient for Dongchang to be convenient, at that time, you were also present, right?" ”

Fan Li nodded and said, "This is true, Wang Yue's father-in-law said that the things sold by these Mongolians are porcelain tea, and there is nothing else to take care of." Lin Sheng smiled, took out the bag from his arms, opened it and took out the silk painting, beckoned me to open it for him, and said: "This picture is painted by this group of Mongolians, all of them are the positions of the Ming garrisons all over the way to Beijing, it is conceivable that this group of people is not a businessman, but a Mongolian spies, they can climb the high branch of Wang Yue's father-in-law, which shows that they are not simple!" ”

"The Tatars often harass my Ming Dynasty, slaughtering and plundering the people, the Ming Dynasty has always been on strict guard against it, the first emperor attaches great importance to it, Wang Yue has been a eunuch in the inner court for many years, don't you know? Could it be that he also wanted to emulate the eunuch when Emperor Yingzong was happy? Liu Jin said suddenly, and we couldn't help but be shocked.

Yingzong hunted in the north, and the eunuch Xining took refuge in Wara, and soon, he told the Ming Dynasty that he was the first, and he was like a fish in water, and harassed the Ming Dynasty many times according to the route provided by Xining. Xining even wanted to harm Yingzong, but Yuan Bin, the Jinyi guard, protected Yingzong, and later the monarch and ministers used a trick to get rid of Xining, so that Yingzong could return safely.

Liu Jin mentioned Xining, clearly referring to Wang Yue's treason, I can't believe it, but Lin Sheng was originally ordered by Wang Yue to escort Batu and others back to Mongolia, which is understandable, Zhengde listened to it and said, "What is Wang Yue doing now?" ”

Lin Sheng said: "Wang Yue is drunk and resting!" Zhengde sneered and said, "It's more comfortable than me, good, good!" Fan Li, do you still have something to talk to? ”

Fan Li's eyes widened, stared at Lin Sheng, and said: "Our family can't imagine that you are the biggest villain, very good, Your Majesty, the slave has nothing to say, to borrow a phrase from Grandpa Yue Feiyue's 'every day'." After saying that, he bowed deeply and went out without looking back.

The whole hall was quiet, Qiu Cheng wanted to speak, Liu Jin interrupted, he peeked at Zhengde,

Zhengde yawned a few times and said with a smile: "I'm really tired today, I'll go back and rest, you guys are busy with your own work!" ”

We saluted again and withdrew. At this time, the bright moon is in the sky, although it is cold, but we do not feel cold.

Liu Jin didn't say a word, led us to the side hall in a hurry, and then closed the door of the hall. Liu Jin turned around, glanced at everyone, and his gaze became cold, "Our family has thanked everyone in advance, tonight's disaster will not die, it all depends on everyone's concerted efforts." Since the catastrophe is not dead, then our family will fight back. ”

"Emperor Shengming, put things right, our brothers, we should work together to deal with these people!" Liu Jin looked at everyone again, everyone nodded one after another, Liu Jin said: "Our family is the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, then our family is not welcome, Gu Dashou led the people of Dongchang to arrest Wang Yue and Fan Li overnight, Liao Jianzhong sent people to keep an eye on the three old guys, tomorrow morning to see the emperor's meaning, Zhang Ying went to arrest Yang Hong, Zhang Yong's Shenji camp and the imperial camp were on guard at any time, Lin Sheng, you will go to Beizhen Fusi in a while, and arrest that Ma Gonggong for our family, if he resists, don't worry about killing!" In the end, he said viciously: "The great tomorrow is the emperor's and our family's!" Who dares to be sorry for our family, our family will not let him turn over for the rest of his life! ”

I listened, I was really shocked, this is inevitably a little arrogant, and the other fathers-in-law and Liao Jianzhong and others are bowing their heads and saying yes, it can be seen that this Liu Jin's father-in-law is indeed powerful, Liu Jin did not speak again, waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse, I naturally went out of the hall with Liao Jianzhong, before leaving, I saw Zhang Yong staring at me all the time, and there was a little more praise in his eyes, and Liu Jin was also aiming at me, but there were many more things in his eyes, cold or puzzled!

Shi Yi had been waiting outside the hall, Liao Jianzhong wanted to go over and say a few words to him, he saw Liu Jin running away, and quickly followed, walked a few steps, and then said to Liao Jianzhong: "You look at it!" Liao Jianzhong reluctantly gave me off and took me out.

I was in a daze, like a dream, followed Liao Jianzhong out of the Huangji Gate, Hua Shichun and others hugged me, Liao Jianzhong just said simply: The big thing has been decided, everyone follow me out of the palace! And he said no more.

I could feel that everyone was excited, and that they were looking at each other more enthusiastically. Yes, everyone can be said to enter the palace with their heads up, once something happens, not only will their lives be lost, but they will also affect their wives and children. Thankfully, we were with the right people, and everyone was happy because they knew that the road ahead would be easy.

Out of the imperial city, it was already ugly. Instead of going directly back to the North Town Fusi, we turned into the Chaofang, which was the boundary of Jimaotong. Jimaotong had already prepared hot tea and snacks, and everyone gathered together, rubbing their hands, stomping their feet, drinking tea, and eating.

Liao Jianzhong sat inside, took a few sips of tea, and said: "The matter is urgent, so everyone should not sleep anymore, at dawn, we must return to Beizhen Fusi." You also know that Beizhen Fusi is currently in the hands of Xiaoma's father-in-law, he will not be a fellow traveler with us, there are still Ji Lifan and others there, I don't want to do it, but there is no way to do it, and we have other errands to do. By the way, from now on, Zhang Ying is a thousand households in Jinyi. When the situation settles down, I will rearrange the errands, and as a matter of urgency, we will split up and arrest people! ”

Everyone looked at me in surprise, making various sounds, and Hua Shichun said: "The commander is here, don't make noise, big brother, you give orders!" Liao Jianzhong nodded and said: "Zhang Ying, you lead your original manpower to go to Yang Hong's house in the west of the city tomorrow morning, he is on duty in Qintianjian tonight, and he could have gone directly to arrest him, but he has an old mother at home, and he will bring a snack back to his mother every morning, and then go to the court, so you can go directly to his house and wait for him to come out of the house, and then arrest him." As for his family, they were to be kept under surveillance, and no one was allowed to approach or go out. I hurriedly said yes.

Thinking that he hadn't seen Ning Boyang and Hardy when he came back, he pondered to find them, and just got up to leave, Liao Jianzhong said: "Now when it's ugly, it's cold, you can't go there to get frozen, rest for two hours, I still have something to say to you." Attention, everyone, let's go! Everyone hurriedly said yes, and then Ji Maotong dispersed everyone and arranged it, and I stayed with Liao Jianzhong, Gu Dayou, and Hua Shichun.
