When Emperor Zhengde heard that Ma Degui had the first emperor's ink treasure in his hand, which was also the fuse of this incident, he was immediately curious, and directly motioned Luo Xiang to get the painting.

Luo Xiang looked at Liu Jin instructively, but found that Liu Jin's eyes emitted a terrifying light, constantly patrolling King An and Ma Degui. I understood immediately that it was better not to provoke Liu Jin at this time.

Luo Xiang took the painting and prepared to walk towards the emperor. Unexpectedly, Liu Jin came back to his senses at this time and took the painting into his hand.

"This painting is indeed the Emperor's Mobao!" Liu Jin spread out the scroll as if no one was around, and then closed it directly, put it in the palm of his hand, and said to Zhengde.

"Oh, is it really my father's painting?" Zhengde was also curious when he heard this, and immediately said, "Then show me this painting, I'm curious, what kind of painting my father made!"

"Please take a look at Your Majesty!" Liu Jin gave the painting to Zhengde, and then said to Ma Degui, "Ma Degui, do you remember the eagle raising the sky?"

Although Ma Degui has the reputation of a royal businessman, he is only a commoner. Although there is a Ming generation, he does not kneel, but Ma Degui is guilty of a serious crime at this time, and he only dares to prostrate on the ground at the moment, not dare to raise his head, and he does not dare to look at the emperor from the moment he enters the door. Hearing Liu Jin's question at this time, Ma Degui said respectfully: "Back to Liu Gong, that Eagle Yangtian is a secret agent you arranged to come to my house to spy on me, how can I not know it?"

Liu Jin's eyes were cold, looking at Ma Degui who didn't see him, knowing that Ma Degui was going to say that he was the mastermind behind the scenes, and there was a murderous intent in his eyes. Hurriedly said: "The reason why I arranged for him to spy on you is because you have illegal activities, before the eagle raised the sky and reported that King An traded with you the first emperor Mobao, with bad intentions, isn't it true?"

"I don't know what Gong Liu said! I have already confessed in front of His Majesty before, this time the incident is actually King An's mortgage of the first emperor Mobao to me in order to save Yanchi Li Shu, where is there any intention to do such a thing!" Ma Degui directly denied it. But he still didn't dare to say that Liu Jin was the mastermind behind the scenes, because he knew that Ying Yangtian had been killed by Zilong and them, and there was no proof of his death.

Liu Jin saw that Ma Degui did not insist on correcting himself, so he put all the blame on Ying Yangtian, the messenger.

Ying Yangtian was originally a thousand households in the expert factory, Liu Jin's cronies. Previously, in order to deal with King An, Liu Jin asked Ying Yangtian to spread the word to Ma Degui, and wanted to use Ma Degui to borrow a try, and took out King An's ink treasure of the former emperor, and then asked Ma Degui to beat him upside down, saying that he gave King An 50,000 silver, confirming that King An's intentions were wrong. As long as King An is convicted and imprisoned in Fengyang City, Liu Jin promises to get an official position for Ma Degui, and even protect his relatives.

The reason why Liu Jin did not come forward by himself was because after all, he was the minister of the inner court, and the eunuch in charge of the seal, and now the most powerful person in the Ming court was inconvenient to come forward to do such a thing in person, so he handed over all the matter to Ying Yangtian for disposal.

Ma Degui is just a businessman, although he has the name of a royal businessman, but he is always just a businessman. The people of the Ming Dynasty were divided into four classes, but the status of merchants was also the lowest. After making a fortune, most of them want to get an official and a half-job, in order to glorify their ancestors.

After the matter was negotiated, Ma Degui really wanted to frame King An, running back and forth to arrange. But now why did he rebel? Liu Jin couldn't think of it, and he didn't want to think about it, since such a despicable villain had betrayed himself, he should also betray it! Wait for this matter, he has 10,000 ways to put this person to death.

At that moment, Liu Jin stopped asking, and glared fiercely at Ma Degui, who was lying on the ground, his eyes were like looking at a dead man, and then he turned to Zhengde and said: "The words of the old slave have been asked, and everything is subject to the Holy Judgment!"

Zhengde pondered for a moment and said: "Gong Liu, you rely on the secret report of your subordinates, there is neither any evidence nor physical evidence, but you come to correct Uncle Wang for selling his father's treasure paintings, accumulating silver taels, and plotting against him! This time, even I can't stand it!"

Liu Jin was also shocked when he heard this, knowing that Zhengde began to be dissatisfied with his three and two unfounded frames of King An, and Zhengde was provoked by Liu Jin to believe that King An had a bad intention, but now it made Zhengde think that he had framed King An again, and his trust in himself had declined. I'm afraid that no matter what, I can't make a serious crime against the king today, and I have to explain clearly why I said that King An had bad intentions.

Thinking clearly, Liu Jin turned to Zhengde and said: "The old slave knows his mistakes, I misheard the villain's words and misunderstood King An!"

Zhengde is not really stupid, Liu Jin has stayed by his side for so many years, so he naturally has a deep affection for Liu Jin.

Although Liu Jin is clearly framing King An today, he can't be too harsh. At that moment, Zhengde said: "Liu Gongyan is serious, this incident, I think it may be a misunderstanding, since this is the case, then it will be over, okay?"

"The old minister took the first emperor's ink treasure as a mortgage, which is really a crime of disrespecting the first emperor, and he is willing to be punished, and he asks His Majesty for permission!" Just when everyone thought that this matter would be over, King An said so.

Liu Jin was also going to forget it like this, Xu Tu planned later, since Ma Degui dared to betray him, it would not be too late to deal with King An when he cleaned up Ma Degui and found out the fate of the missing person in the inner factory. Unexpectedly, he wanted to let go of King An, but this King An didn't let go of himself.

It's just that what King An said is not bad! If Zhengde doesn't pursue it, others don't ask, and King An himself doesn't say it, and this matter will be revealed! However, if the person concerned, King An admits his fault, then Zhengde will have to punish King An for the sake of the reputation of the former emperor. But because King An took the initiative to ask for sin, this sin cannot be lightened.

But this is not the key, the key is that if a virtuous king like King An who serves the country and the people is punished because of this incident, then Liu Jin is a false accusation against King An, and he should be punished.

Since Liu Jin took power, when did anyone dare to punish him. If this precedent is set, I am afraid that Liu Jin's prestige will be damaged. At that moment, the ministers and nobles who were all on the stage were all smiling playfully, watching how Liu Jin handled this matter.

Liu Jin saw these twinkling ministers, how could he not know what they were thinking. At the moment, he said to Zhengde: "Since His Royal Highness King An has asked for punishment and is indeed disrespectful to the emperor, Your Majesty will be loyal to King An!"

All the ministers were shocked when they heard this, and they didn't know what kind of medicine Liu Jin was selling in the gourd. If King An is punished, will Liu Jin be able to escape? Zhengde also glanced at Liu Jin with some surprise, and found that Liu Jin's expression was not a joke at all, and asked with a little confusion at the moment: "Then according to Liu Gong's opinion, how should he be punished? King An, as an uncle of the king, is also for the country's fence, guarding Ningxia, and has worked hard and made great achievements! This time it is for the people of Yanchi and for the country's disaster relief, or is it a light punishment, right?"

"Your Majesty is reasonable!" Liu Jin nodded and said, "His Royal Highness King An is loyal to the country, and he is really an example for my Ming vassal king!

"Ah?" King An was stunned when he heard this, he was just as everyone thought, dragging Liu Jin into the water by himself, but Liu Jin really punished himself, but this punishment was confiscated the painting, and then King An pounced, knelt on the ground, and said, "Your Majesty Mingjian! That painting was given by the former emperor, and the minister did not dare to slack off a little, and he was enshrined in the secret room every day, and he did not dare to show it! If it were not for the disaster in the salt pond this time, the minister would not have produced this painting anyway, and please Your Majesty not confiscate the last bit of gift given by the emperor to the minister!"

On the one hand, King An actually kowtowed his head directly, but this time all the ministers were shocked. You must know that King An is the elder of His Majesty, although from the perspective of the way of the monarch and the minister, King An salutes the emperor, but it is not wrong. But from the perspective of clan ethics, there is no need to kowtow! But King An is now kowtowing for a painting, although this painting was given by the emperor, but it should not be like this!

"This ......" Zhengde was also slightly surprised, stood up from the dragon chair, put his hands on the throne, and said, "Why is Uncle An like this, why don't you get up and talk......!"

Before Zhengde finished speaking, Liu Jin continued: "The minister listened to what the villain said, wrongly accused King An, and also asked to remove the minister's celebrant from the post of eunuch to show His Majesty's order and fairness!"

"Huh?" Zhengde was really surprised this time, he was cultivated by Liu Jin and the Queen Mother in the direction of the naughty boy, but he didn't understand anything about state affairs. Over the years, every time there has been a disturbance about state affairs, he will be anxious. If it weren't for Liu Jin's presence and planning for him, I am afraid that he would have been annoyed to death by state affairs.

Now Liu Jin has asked himself to resign from the post of eunuch in charge of the seal, but he is actually resigning from the post of internal minister, how can this not surprise Zhengde. Not only Zhengde was surprised, but Qiu Ju and Luo Xiang were also surprised. It's just that in Qiu Ju's surprised eyes, there is also a hint of obscure and inexplicable meaning. And the other ministers, including King An, were also shocked at this time, would Liu Jin really give up power so easily?

"Liu Gong's words are serious!" Zhengde directly broke the deadlock and said, "Liu Gong is also working for the country, so he will be taken by the villain! Damn it, it's the villain, why do you want to go to work!"

"Yes!" Luo Xiang also hurriedly said out loud, "Liu Gong, over the years, for Your Majesty, for the country, before and after the saddle, you have worked hard, although you have wrongly accused King An this time, the blame is not on you, you don't have to be like this!"

The other ministers also reacted at this time, regardless of whether Liu Jin's intention to leave his post was true or not, if he didn't speak at this time, he would be worried about this person. When Liu Jin comes back, I'm afraid that the first one will take a knife on himself. At present, these ministers and nobles who have always been like clay sculptures are all lined up together, and said loudly: "Liu Gong is serious, this fact is not doing Liu Gong!"

King An only felt cold, when he was framed and attacked by these eunuchs, these so-called ministers just watched from the wall and watched the jokes. And Liu Jin asked himself to leave, but these people jumped out and kept Liu Jin.

Is this world the world of the Zhu family, or the world of his Liu Jin. Could it be that he is a vassal king, and he is better than a eunuch? Are these princes and nobles still the same group of meritorious deeds that followed Taizu and Taizong to fight the world?

No matter what King An thought, Liu Jin smiled lightly in his heart when he saw that all the ministers in the Taiwan were born to dissuade him, but this King An was a fool in the frontier! Can his status in the court be the same as that of him? Which of these ministers and nobles dares to disobey him in person, and which one dares not to be respectful when he sees him. It is Li Dongyang, the first assistant of the cabinet, several state ministers, and a few people who dare to embarrass themselves in person. It is really a dream to think that retreating is advancing, dragging yourself into the water, and hitting your prestige.

At that moment, Liu Jin smiled lightly and said: "You don't have to persuade hard, I feel sorry for King An, I'm sorry for my Ming clan, if I don't go to office today, I'm afraid that others will say that I am arrogant!"

"Liu Gongyan has passed!" The person who spoke was the British Duke Zhang Mao, who was the grandson of Zhang Yu, the hero of the Jingnan, but his father was Zhang Fu, a fourth-generation important minister of the Ming Dynasty. Now Zhang Mao is nearly 60 years old and is dying.

Now the meritorious relatives are headed by Zhang Mao. I only heard Zhang Mao say: "Duke Liu is in charge, the public is loyal to the country, although there are occasional mistakes this time, but it is a minor mistake! The position of the eunuch in charge of the seal is the head of the inner court, and he uploads and distributes it, and contacts His Majesty and the outer court, which is really important, and Liu Gong can't do it!"

"Yes, yes!" This is in line with Zhang Mao, but it is Yingcheng Uncle Sun Yue, who only hears him say, "Liu Gong has a heavy responsibility, who can bear it, how can he easily step down!"

For a while, these ministers and nobles were all in line with Zhang Mao and Sun Yue, and they praised Liu Jin as a rare genius in the sky and no one on earth, that is, the resurrection of Wuhou, which is still inferior.
