Zhang Mao was even more embarrassed for a while.

At this time, Qi Zhiyuan took the opportunity to say, "Duke, students, etc., are waiting for the snow with grievances, so please ask the Duke to make the decision for it."

Others kowtowed one after another: "I beg the Duke to make the decision."

Liu Yi, the Minister of Revenue, sat aside, feeling relieved, and knew... At this point, even if he reported to the court, the Xishan Money House would definitely not have any good results.

Zhang Mao felt embarrassed, and he really couldn't make any decision in this matter.

So he simply stopped talking.

But at this moment, someone outside said, "The imperial envoy has arrived, the imperial envoy has arrived..."

Zhang Mao stood up and said solemnly: "We will welcome the imperial envoy first."

The imperial envoy committed a huge crime, and it also represented the emperor. Now that he came down from Xiaoling Mausoleum, he was still the imperial envoy before the court was punished. Even if he was a British Duke, he had to show respect.

So Liu Yi and others also stood up, and they wanted to laugh in their hearts that the imperial envoy was in trouble. Today's affairs were unprecedented. A person, both as an imperial envoy and a prisoner of unforgivable sins. Liu Yi was expecting in his heart and wanted to see the imperial envoy.

Qi Zhiyuan and others also stood up. At this time, they felt relieved and knew that the overall situation had been settled.

When Cao Shang heard the word "Imperial Envoy", his face suddenly changed. This was the revenge of killing his father, and he was irreconcilable, so he sneered with gritted teeth.

…………

A carriage came slowly under the entourage of a large number of soldiers.

In the car, Emperor Hongzhi seemed calm. He didn't know what was happening in Nanjing. He only knew that the British Duke Zhang Mao had arrived. Sitting opposite him was Fang Jifan. Fang Jifan was drowsy, which made Emperor Hongzhi very worried about the body of this son-in-law.

Young people only get up at midnight when they are at least noon every day. I am afraid that they will work hard in the middle of the night. I don’t know how to cherish their bodies. If you get up earlier, you will look listless. What should I do?

At this time, when Emperor Hongzhi coughed, Fang Jifan cheered up, looked at Emperor Hongzhi, and then said embarrassedly: "My son... have you just slept?"

Emperor Hongzhi said: "I have entered the city and will arrive at the governor's office soon."

Fang Jifan looked at Emperor Hongzhi in awe. His Majesty's execution of Cao Yuan gave Fang Jifan a deep impression. His Majesty, he could not have thought that he was a ruthless person, so it would be better to be careful.

At this time, the carriage stopped. Outside the carriage, the British Duke Zhang Mao was the leader of the six officials of Nanjing, as well as Qi Zhiyuan, Cao Yuanren, etc., and there were a group of soldiers on the outside. After that... they were again gentry and scholars.

Before the carriage and horses arrived, there was endless discussion here, and everyone wanted to know what the true face of the imperial envoy who killed Cao Yuan was.

When the carriage stopped, everyone started to feel silent.

But as soon as the car door opened, someone got off the car first.

As soon as the person appeared, he was in an uproar.

First, Cao Shang said sadly: "The hatred of killing his father is irreconcilable. This is this person. He killed his father, this thief... this dog thief..."

As he said that, Cao Shang burst into tears, as if he was about to rush forward to avenge his father. At this moment, his face was ferocious and he wanted to tear the person who got off the carriage to pieces.

When Cao Shang yelled, Qi Zhiyuan and other gentry started to make noise when they saw this opportunity.

"Murder for life."

"This is the crime of death... He must not be let go."

The Minister of Revenue Liu Yiren and others smiled and looked like they were holding a wise bead, but... when they saw the visitor... Liu Yi's face was slightly stunned.

The person in front of me is so familiar... it seems that I have seen it somewhere...

But when he saw this imperial envoy, he had an extraordinary demeanor. Facing countless criticisms, he just frowned slightly. Then, his face returned to his original state, looking around and looking at himself, as if he didn't see the noisy person at all.

The one who got off the car then was Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan got off the carriage and couldn't help but stretch and wanted to beat him, but he broke his face again. Well, he is a well-known person, so he should pay attention to his image.

Cao Shang first broke through the guard's obstacles and rushed straight forward, shouting with a crazy look: "Is it you who killed my father?"

Emperor Hongzhi only glanced at Cao Shang. To be honest, Cao Shang and Cao Yuan looked quite similar, which shows that... they were father and son, and they were still close.

Emperor Hongzhi only said one word lightly: "Yes."

“…”

Everyone would think that the imperial envoy had to make a few quibbling words, but they didn't expect that the other party was so calm.

Many people gasped.

This person is so arrogant.

However, Emperor Hongzhi didn't even look at Cao Shang much, but his eyes had already fallen on Zhang Mao.

He actually walked slowly and walked to Zhang Mao.

Zhang Mao... has been petrified at this moment.

This...Emperor...Emperor?

Why is the emperor here? Could this... just look similar?

But... When Fang Jifan, who was beside the emperor, appeared in front of Zhang Mao's face, that he recognized as if he had turned into ashes, Zhang Mao understood that the emperor was undoubtedly the one in front of him.

But……

The Emperor...is the imperial envoy?

Zhang Mao and Zhang had wide eyes, and his whole body became stiff. The shock in his heart was conceivable.

Faced with the shocked expressions from the people in front of him, Emperor Hongzhi didn't care. He just glanced at Zhang Mao casually and said, "Why are there so many people here?"

Zhang Mao continued to be confused...

After a long time, Qiqi Ai Ai said, "Some people... some people want to sue... Xishan Money House... and... and... and..."

Finally, it wasn't a reaction at all...

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly and said, "Who else?"

"The imperial envoy... no, no, it's a lawsuit..."

Zhang Mao was just like a tiger, but now he has become a kitten, so docile that he is not so gentle. He is about to continue talking...

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help laughing, and the laughter was very contemptuous: "What's the crime for accusing the imperial envoy?"

Zhang Mao said: "Collaborate with Xishan Money House and kill people..."

Emperor Hongzhi looked puzzled: "Collection with Xishan Money House? This is a false accusation. There are murders, but collusion with Xishan Money House is clearly framed."

Emperor Hongzhi's face became even more serious.

He never expected that so many gentry and scholars would come here to make a noise.

Even... he has begun to frame himself and collude with Xishan Money House.

Seeing the imperial envoy denied the collusion with Xishan Money House...

Qi Zhiyuan naturally couldn't give up and took the opportunity to say, "All the witnesses are here, do you still want to deny them? I am just a gangster, but I really can't stand it anymore. The ancients said, "If you are unfair, you will be rumored. Now, you still don't want to repent. You are so brave. Your salary and salary are all your own money..."

Emperor Hongzhi recognized Qi Zhiyuan, and Qi Zhiyuan personally attracted him!

When Zhang Mao heard Qi Zhiyuan's words, he was immediately shocked. He could imagine that he was crazy... crazy...

Only then did he truly react...

But he heard Qi Zhiyuan and others say one after another: "Murder for life! Today, I still don't want to repent, and I will never forgive you..."

Smack...

Zhang Mao is just a rough man, he has a very direct thinking, so...

Have bowed.

He was extremely frightened.

His Majesty was still angry after hearing these words. He had no relationship with these people.

Zhang Mao said: "My...I am guilty of death..."

He kneeled...

It suddenly made Liu Yi and others awaken.

Others may not have a meeting of the saint, but the tribes of each tribe have had the opportunity to meet the saint.

Although I was extremely frightened when I was facing the saint and did not dare to look directly at His Majesty's face.

But I always felt that Emperor Hongzhi was very familiar with him.

Now Zhang Mao’s words of the crime of death for thousands of people... suddenly made them understand something in an instant.

It's the Emperor... The Emperor is here...

Liu Yi and others dared not hesitate anymore, so they hurriedly bowed and said, "I... I'm late to welcome you, and I'll die..."

First, Liu Yi and others bowed down, and then... they were other officials.

Countless officers and soldiers are here, looking at each other, looking at me, and looking at you.

Then... like a sea of ​​scattered people, everyone bowed and said, "Long live my emperor after seeing Your Majesty."

Qi Zhiyuan was stunned...

His Majesty……
To be continued...
