Chapter 160 Old Fox Biao's Acting Skills 【Seeking Monthly Pass】
Chu Yi stretched out his hand and said, "The Wu Dajian does not need to be polite. The Dajian does not follow the general manager Gu to serve His Majesty. At this late at night, is it because His Majesty has any order?"
Wu Tong stood up and glanced at Huang Huai and others. As a close servant beside Zhu Houzhao, Wu Tong was naturally familiar with Huang Huai and said to Chu Yi: "The Grand Chief Executive, Your Majesty, when he heard that Huang Huai, the Minister of War, Huang Huai, the Right Governor of the Five Army Governors' Office, was furious and ordered the governor to confiscate Huang Huai and others' houses, and all the nine clans were put in prison and waited for the death!"
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows. It was said that Zhu Houzhao should have fallen asleep now. Even if the news about the East Factory, the Jinyiwei, and the West Factory entered the palace, it should be time to wait until dawn to find out.
Nodded slightly, Chu Yi smiled at Wu Tong and said, "Judge Wu, has Your Majesty not fall asleep yet?"
Wu Tong smiled and said, "Your Majesty has fallen asleep, but not long ago, the chief assistant, Lord Yang, asked for his Majesty to see you, so your Majesty was awakened."
Chu Yi said in surprise: "Prime Minister Yang Tinghe? What is the matter when he asks to see Your Majesty?"
As he said that, Chu Yi couldn't help but look at Huang Huai, Ma Yunzhang, Feng An, Baibing and others. Sure enough, Huang Huai and others were all excited.
Although Huang Huai and the others did not speak, Chu Yi could roughly guess how many people must have been right and wrong. Yang Tinghe went to ask for the emperor to plead for them.
Chu Yi showed a sneer on his lips. Yang Tinghe is definitely an old fox. If Yang Tinghe was going to take advantage of the situation, Chu Yi would believe it, but it would be strange if Chu Yi believed it.
Sure enough, he heard Wu Tong: "Old Yang Ge asked to see Your Majesty, but he reported to Your Majesty that Huang Huai, Huang Kui and others had privately dispatched troops to surround the general manager. Your Majesty was furious when he heard this. Originally, Yang Ge was persuaded to kill the three tribes of Huang Huai and others, but Your Majesty was furious and personally ordered the execution of the nine tribes of Huang Huai and others!"
"Ah, Yang Tinghe, you old thief..."
Huang Huai's face showed a look of despair and he couldn't help but scold him.
As for Feng An, his face was pale, and the last glimmer of hope was shattered. Feng An laughed like a madman.
Bai Bing and Ma Yunzhang simply fainted and showed his ugly appearance, so there was no demeanor of the court officials.
Watching Wu Tong leave, Chu Yi couldn't help but say to Huang Huai: "Master Huang, it seems that you have disappointed Mrs. Yang!"
Huang Huai couldn't help but be shocked and stared at Chu Yi and said, "You...what do you mean!"
Chu Yi smiled and said, "What do you think of this governor?"
Huang Huai gritted his teeth and looked at Chu Yi and said, "General Chu, the subordinate is willing to prove that Yang Tinghe is him, everything is him, he is the real messenger behind the scenes..."
I thought Chu Yi would be very excited to let him go, but what disappointed Huang Huai was that Chu Yi looked at him calmly, without any joy at all, but instead looked at him with an idiot's gaze.
Chu Yi sighed lightly: "I don't even have this view of the overall situation. No wonder I was regarded as an abandoned son. Yang Ting and he could choose to betray your whereabouts to the emperor. That's because he has seen through you that you can't accomplish anything at all. Do you think he would not expect you to prove him?"
Huang Huai looked stunned and heard Chu Yi continue, "Do you have any evidence and physical evidence? Don't you think that Your Majesty doesn't know that all this is Yang Tinghe? Liu Jin died, Li Dongyang retired, the court was in turmoil, among the officials, only Yang Tinghe is the most suitable and able to stabilize the situation in the court. Even if His Majesty is dissatisfied with him, he will still choose him as the chief minister of the cabinet, because no one can replace his role in the court at present."
Huang Huai was depressed and said in a daze: "So that's it, so that's it. We are just an abandoned son, a abandoned son!"
He looked at Huang Huai with pity, and Chu Yi went straight into Huang Huai's mansion.
The major case of Huang Huai, Ma Yunzhang, Feng An, Bai Bing, and Huang Kui being identified by the emperor as a crime of rebellion finally came to an end with the arrest of five people and nine tribes and confiscating their family property.
Many people in the capital did not sleep well that night. Huang Huai and others were searched, especially Chu Yi was ordered to capture people from five people and nine clans. The Tiqi went out everywhere. The entire capital could hear the movements of people from the East Factory and the Jinyiwei taking people everywhere.
It continued until dawn. Even so, I could still see the Jinyiwei and Dongchang people appearing on the long street. A relative of a criminal who was crying and wailing was arrested from various places.
Moreover, the emperor was furious. After the Jinyiwei directly identified the identities of Huang Huai and others, he began to take people everywhere according to their nine-class family genealogy.
Even though there are many relatives within the nine clans who are not in the capital, with the eyeliners and strongholds all over the world, as long as there is a roster, it is really not a problem to get people.
Of course, this is not something that can be achieved in a short while. I am afraid that it will take at least ten days and half a month to arrest all the people within the nine clans.
It was dawn, and Chu Yi washed his face and headed to the leopard room.
If nothing unexpected happens, Chu Yi believes that Zhu Houzhao must have had no rest for half a night.
Sure enough, when Chu Yi arrived at the leopard room, Gu Dayong, who was guarding outside, couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he saw Chu Yi coming, and he hurriedly came forward and said to Chu Yi: "Brother Chu Yi, you have finally come. Your Majesty has been waiting for you to return safely. Our family has advised you several times, but Your Majesty doesn't listen."
Chu Yi nodded at Gu Dayong and said, "Master Gu is interested, so I would like to ask Master Gu to join us, so that we can persuade Your Majesty to go and rest."
Gu Dayong smiled and said, "I believe that as long as your Majesty sees Brother Chu Yi, you will be at ease."
While speaking, Gu Dayong and Chu Yi entered the hall. Chu Yi saw Zhu Houzhao sitting on the desk from afar, and he was probably practicing calligraphy.
You should know that with Zhu Houzhao's unrestrained temperament, it is not that easy to calm him down and practice calligraphy. So when you see Zhu Houzhao suppressing his temperament to practice calligraphy, Chu Yi can see that Zhu Houzhao is not so calm in his heart.
Hearing the footsteps, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but look up at the people. When he saw Chu Yi strode, Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, and his heart fell down. He put down the brush in his hand, looked at Chu Yi with a smile, and Gu Dayong and the other two.
"Ben Chu, I feel at ease when I see you are safe and sound!"
Chu Yi looked grateful and said to Zhu Houzhao: "I am so worried that I am afraid of your majesty. I also ask Your Majesty to put the dragon body first. Don't hurt the dragon body."
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said, "It must be Gu Daban who said something he had said to you. I am not so careless yet. I just haven't had a rest for half a night. But Chu Daban you, I'm afraid that this night will be thrilling."
As he said that, Zhu Houzhao pulled Chu Yi and said, "Chuan Chu, tell me what happened."
Chu Yi nodded slightly and said to Gu Dayong: "Brother Gu, inform the Royal Kitchen to prepare breakfast for Your Majesty!"
Gu Dayong said: "Breakfast has been prepared, but Your Majesty insists on waiting for you to start eating!"
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "Gu Daban, inform the imperial kitchen to send meals. You go to the next door to invite Mr. Yang. Today I will hold a banquet to have a meal with Mr. Yang."
Chu Yi had already learned about Yang Tinghe from Wu Tong, but he did not expect that Yang Tinghe would be left in this leopard room by Zhu Houzhao.
After looking at Zhu Houzhao, Chu Yi understood in his heart that it was Zhu Houzhao's intention. Yang Tinghe had too much influence on the civil and military affairs in the court. If Yang Tinghe secretly contacted all civil and military officials when he captured Huang Huai and others' families, it might cause him a lot of trouble.
Zhu Houzhao left Yang Tinghe here, which clearly meant to eliminate the possible adverse effects of Yang Tinghe for him.
Zhu Houzhao seemed to notice Chu Yi's expression and couldn't help but blink at Chu Yi, looking like I was doing a great job.
Chu Yi sighed in his heart. After all, Zhu Houzhao was only over 20 years old. If he were not an emperor but from a wealthy family, he might have lived a very free and easy life.
A sound of footsteps came. When Chu Yi heard the sound, he saw a figure walking towards Gu Dayong from the side hall next to him. Isn’t it the first person in the court and the chief minister of the cabinet, Yang Tinghe?
Seeing Yang Tinghe, Chu Yi smiled and stepped forward and bowed to Yang Tinghe, "I have met the Prime Minister."
Yang Tinghe hurriedly returned the courtesy: "Tinghe has met the Chief Manager. The Chief Manager has not rested all night and is still in such a good spirit. It really makes me envious."
Chu Yi smiled and said, "The Chief Auxiliary should be stronger and more powerful. Working hard on state affairs is what Chu Yi should learn."
When the two were polite, a little eunuch had already arranged the meals neatly. Zhu Houzhao heard him say to Chu Yi and Yang Tinghe: "Chu Dalian, Yang Qing's family, I will accompany me to have a meal here today."
It is an honor to be able to accompany the emperor to have a meal. If it is not a favored minister of the emperor, few people will be treated like this.
Yang Tinghe and Chu Yi hurriedly thanked each other. The table was filled with royal meals, which were full of colors, fragrance and flavor. There were about a dozen dishes. They said that there were not much or less, but Zhu Houzhao specially ordered people to add a few dishes. On weekdays, Zhu Houzhao would not allow the imperial kitchen to prepare so many meals.
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "I specially ordered someone to add a few Sichuan cuisines. If I remember correctly, the Qing family is from Chengdu Prefecture, Sichuan. You might as well try it. This Sichuan cuisine is suitable for the Qing family's taste!"
Yang Tinghe immediately looked inexplicably moved and said to Zhu Houzhao: "The old minister is loved by His Majesty and is grateful."
As he said that, Yang Tinghe wiped away the corners of his eyes and said, "Let Your Majesty, General Chu laugh!"
When Chu Yi saw Yang Tinghe's natural reaction, he couldn't help but sigh. This was an old fox with superb acting skills like a movie emperor. Those who didn't know really thought that Yang Tinghe was loyal and devoted to Zhu Houzhao.
I really didn't fall asleep. Really, the fourth update I was late is given. Please give me a monthly ticket and a reward.
