Calmness, calmness that is about to come.

After calm, a heavy rain raged on Jinling.

There were no shadows on the Qinhuai River, and there were no people in the Stone City. The branches and leaves swayed like witches dancing wildly. Then, raindrops as big as beans knocked on the doors and windows.

The glazed tiles on the Forbidden City are still the same as before in the rain.

Zheng He and several internal officials responded to the heavy rain, closed all the doors and windows in the hall, and lit palace lanterns in the hall.

The palace lanterns are rising, and the palace is shining red.

At this time, the Fengtian Palace sounded like a proclamation of strife: "It is a crime to be adept at dispatching officers and soldiers. It is the second one. Mobilizing officers and soldiers, arson fire, wash up and plunder the dragon, what is the difference between rebellion? When Taizu was in his place, Annan was a country that would never be conquered, but Chen was in his position and never conquered. The ancestral system was like this, Hao Fenglou completely ignored it. What should he do? If such a arrogant person who was favored and arrogant, and if everyone imitated him in the future, what should he do? Your Majesty, it is of great importance. Now the court and the country are in panic, and the neighbors are worried. Last night, the Korean envoy Li Xian asked about this matter, which shows... "

Zhu Di's face was expressionless, and behind the bead curtain of the sky crown, his old face was dim and unclear.

Several backbone ministers sat down without saying a word. The most exciting thing was some low-level Qingliu. They were all sad and angry, and spoke generously, as if they had experienced the death of their father.

The matter was more serious than expected. This involved the national policy of the court to use civil service to control military affairs and the issue of mobilizing officers and soldiers. In addition, it also involved the vassal states. No matter which crime was committed, it was enough to make the perpetrator bear the consequences that he could not bear.

More importantly, everyone doesn’t like Hao Fenglou, they don’t like it very much.

First, this person is a martial artist; second, this guy has done many things that are absurd in the eyes of Qingliu people.

With these two, it is enough for everyone to fall down and push everyone.

The prince Zhu Gaochi had no expression on his face. He sat on the chair without saying a word. For him, based on his current position, he spoke at this time. It was obviously not suitable, so he chose to remain silent very smartly.

However, Xie Jin was secretly anxious.

The more he listened, the more he felt that it was not interesting.

These Qingliu really have no choice but to do anything. They can't tell the difference between the main and the secondary. The most important thing at the moment is to punish Hao Fenglou, which is the purpose. But these guys talked freely. Just now, there was an envoy who actually mentioned the four words "being arrogant with favor".

What does it mean to be arrogant because of favor? Whose favor Hao Fenglou relies on? Isn’t the person who favors him sit here? Isn’t this not to scold the bald donkey in front of the monk and ask you to clean up Hao Fenglou, not to let you involve the emperor and Hao Fenglou, not to do business, there is no saying that you buy one and get one free.

Any literati must have a theme when killing people. First of all, you must understand who you want to kill. After understanding this, you will create momentum and open up all the fire. As a result... letting the emperor get shot while lying down. This is obviously not killing people, but committing suicide.

Originally, Xie Jin planned to retreat behind the scenes and Ren Qingliu and others could do it freely, but now, he knows that this is absolutely impossible. If he continues like this, he will have to make a bad thing.

He coughed, his face calm, but he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Annan's affairs will not be punished. Some of the memorials handed over are obscure and some are straightforward, and they are all obvious. However, this matter was caused by Hao Fenglou. He was the one who was abusing the officers and soldiers, and he was also the one who killed Chen Tianping. How could the court remain indifferent to such a serious crime? Naturally, there were also memorials that said that Chen Tianping did mean to neglect our Ming Dynasty, but this was not the reason for mutiny and the killing of the king. Even if the court wanted to severely punish Chen Tianping, it should be the imperial edict. The court would follow the action. How could he allow him to make a decision? Your Majesty is wise, some things are in your mind, but such major matters cannot be discussed. The court should take action immediately to capture and investigate the relevant personnel..."

Xie Jin knew in his heart that Chen Tianping from Annan really made the emperor disgusted. Various signs a few days ago showed that Chen Tianping not only played the Ming army in Annan, but also the court and emperor of the Ming Dynasty were also among the people. In terms of personal feelings, Xie Jin expected that Hao Fenglou's action might not have been angered for the emperor. Therefore, at this time, one must be careful and must not breed the emperor's rebellious intention. Otherwise, the final result may be that person who has been unlucky may not be the guy who has been silent.

Zhu Di's expression was stiff and unmoved. It was not until Xie Jin finished speaking that Zhu Di's voice sounded: "Issue: Hao Fenglou is bold and immediately captures the capital awaiting trial. General Zhang Fu, deputy general Mu Sheng, guerrilla general Chen Dao, Wang Kang, Guangxi general Jiang Chenren, etc., were not strict in the military management and could not stop the mutiny in time, and was even more suspicious of indulgence. This matter...is very important, and it is necessary to investigate strictly and thoroughly, and send a personal military captain to investigate and investigate. Governor Qiu Fu immediately went to Annan to control the troops. Chen Xiong, the right censor of the Censorate, accompanied him to investigate the matter thoroughly."

After Zhu Di said that, he was already frowning and said viciously: "The prince violated the law and the people. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and kill the King of Annan, which will destroy the business of the Ming Dynasty in Annan. The current situation in Annan will definitely be corrupt. This relationship must be borne by someone. If I don't kill a few people, how can I defeat the world?"

Zhu Di's actions were beyond everyone's expectations. In fact, many people thought that the emperor might be partial to Hao Fenglou, so they worked so hard, and they all had a stammer of their necks and looked irreconcilable with the thief, but now... they didn't expect that the emperor's attitude was more firm than theirs.

Everyone was excited and ecstatic.

After the court dispersed, Xie Jin slowly left the hall. Unconsciously, the prince Zhu Gaochi had already rushed over, and Hu Guang also came over.

Hu Guang was furious when he saw the emperor being furious and ordered someone to capture Hao Fenglou. He was very happy. He and Hao Fenglou had an irreconcilable grudge. His brother died at the hands of Hao Fenglou. At this time, he was overjoyed to see Hao Fenglou's unluckyness.

Hu Guang happily saluted Zhu Gaochi and Xie Jin, and immediately lowered his voice: "I didn't expect that I could not find the guilt of the surname Hao. Now, he came to the door by himself..." Then his eyes couldn't help but blur, and he almost cried bitterly, saying: "If my brother has a spirit in the sky, he can still keep his eyes closed."

Zhu Gaochi's face was not good-looking, full of indifference, but he didn't know what to think.

Xie Jin just smiled bitterly.

Seeing these two people like this, Hu Guang couldn't help but feel a little angry. He has always supported the prince, but now that his great revenge is revenge, the crown prince is so indifferent that it can't help but feel disappointed. As for Xie Jin, he is his fellow townsman, his hometown is only a river, and everyone has passed the imperial examination together, becoming officials, fellow townsmen, classmates, and colleagues. Such a relationship has not given him a smile.

He had to suppress his anger: "Senior, why do you sigh?"

If it were someone else, Xie Jin would not reveal his thoughts, but facing the angry Hu Guang, he had to say: "Brother Hu, you are wrong, you are all wrong. It is probably not easy for Hao Fenglou to blame him."

When Hu Guang heard this, he was excited: "He committed such a serious crime, and any of them were enough to cut into pieces. Besides, wasn't your Majesty angry? He told him to take action clearly. The evidence of this crime is conclusive. At present, even Your Majesty is not arrogant. What's the capital he has to get rid of the crime? Gentleman, what do you mean by these words?"

Xie Jin and Zhu Gaochi looked at each other, and both of them had helplessness in their eyes.

Finally, Xie Jin said, "You are concerned, it's really confusing. You're really confused. Others can't see clearly, but you can't see clearly. Did you see Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi's expressions just now? They all understood and looked thoughtful. Look, Your Majesty was indeed furious, but the root of the problem was that it was not only for Hao Fenglou. Originally, if you punish Hao Fenglou, you would give an explanation to the world, the matter would be over. But Your Majesty also ordered people to investigate and deal with Zhang Fu, Mu Sheng and many military generals, all of them, and all of them were escorted to the capital for punishment. Do you understand now? Your Majesty was furious in public, but in fact he was protecting him secretly. So I said that this matter was not so easy, and I am not in a hurry to celebrate."

"If you think carefully, after so many people have been dealt with, which of these people is easy to mess with? Just say Zhang Fu, Zhang Fu's father is Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu is the number one hero of Jingnan. In the Yan army, how many people were his family's old friends; and Mu Sheng, Mu Sheng, was the second son of the King of Qianning, and his family was entrenched in Yunnan. Several brothers, one of them inherited the Duke of Yunnan, and the other several were all enjoying their happiness in the capital. Now Mu Sheng is convicted, can they ignore it? As for other military generals, they are involved. To put it bluntly, even the confidant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they are involved. These people will definitely suffer a rebound. If someone wants to rescue them, they must get rid of their crimes. At that time, they will definitely make trouble. Use all their manpower and material resources to clear their guilt. To prove their innocence, they must prove Hao Fenglou's innocence. Do you understand?"

Hu Guang suddenly realized and then his face turned pale.

He understood that the emperor was furious under pressure. But he might not really want to attack Hao Fenglou. After all, the blame is too great. Once Hao Fenglou is determined to be like this, it will be a serious crime to kill the clan. Since that is the case, then just involve everyone.

In this way, it is equivalent to tie Hao Fenglou and many people together. Will these people... let it go?

Therefore, an interest group that clears the case naturally takes shape. The relationship these people are involved in can be imagined. They will never be less powerful than the ministers in the court who demand severe punishment. There are even some people, even His Royal Highness, dare not offend easily.
