Ever since He Zhan in southern Xinjiang filed an imperial complaint, saying that Wu Zhun was corrupt, lawless, and allowed his subordinates to beat his godson. Zhu Youtang paid great attention to Wu Zhun and privately sent Jin Yiwei to command Wan Zhun.

General investigation is accurate.

Wu Zhun was extremely dissatisfied after receiving Liu Ji's words last time. In his opinion, the current emperor is young and in his first year on the throne. There are many trivial matters in the court and he has no time to take care of himself. Moreover, Liu Ji has been promoted to the cabinet.

The Chief Assistant, truly sits below one person and above ten thousand people. Isn’t it easy to protect yourself with the power in your hands? The sky is high and the emperor is far away. It’s not easy for me to become a guard at the south gate of the town. I submitted my resignation as soon as I said it.

, how could he give up the power in his hands. Therefore, Wu Zhun did not listen to Liu Ji's words, and still went his own way. Instead, he went to He Zhan to apologize symbolically, but He Zhan still didn't feel relieved. He Zhan had been waiting.

, waiting for the emperor to deal with him!

Liu Ji learned a few days ago that Wu Zhun did not do what he wanted. He was even more furious and kept cursing: "Idiot, idiot!"

Liu Ji waited for more than ten years, finally defeated Wan An, and ascended to the throne of the cabinet's chief minister. Before his butt was hot, Zhu Youtang arranged for a second minister Xu Pu who was eyeing him covetously. If this time

If he is dragged into the trap by this idiot Wu Zhun, then he will never have the possibility of making a comeback. Liu Ji sent five of his confidants to tell Wu Zhun this month, asking him to obey, not to be self-righteous, and not to let his piece of rat meat get spoiled.

A whole pot of soup.

Unfortunately, Wu Zhun didn't listen after all. When Liu Ji was preparing to implement the power of personnel transfer and dismissal, he encountered Xu Pu's firm opposition. With Xu Pu's constraints, the matter was delayed again and again, and finally Wu Zhun's

Everything he did and what he did were all discovered by Wantong.

In the Wenhua Hall, Zhu Youtang was looking at the names of the officials in the Yamen Hall of the two capitals, the Five Prefectures, the Sixth Ministries, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, as well as the officials guarding the Second Division of the Governor's Office, the prefecture, and the garrison officials posted on the wall. Accompanying him were Su Yin and others.

There was also Yanhai, the head of Qianqing Palace. Su Yin followed Zhu Youtang and fanned carefully, while Yanhai followed Su Yin's footsteps with a cup of tea.

Among the newly appointed officials in the Wenhua Palace today, there was a name that Zhu Youtang paid special attention to.

"A lot of things have happened recently. Has this man named Li Dongyang given me a memorial?" Zhu Youtang asked.

Yanhai tried hard to search for memories in his mind, and after a while he replied: "Back to the emperor, in my impression, Li Dongyang has never been in the memorial."

Zhu Youtang took the tea from Yanhai's hand and took a sip, nodded and praised: "Hmm... this tea is good! Li Dongyang is currently a bachelor's degree lecturer. He is soft-spoken and has never been in memorial. It's normal."

At this moment, Li Guang trotted in and said, "Your Majesty, the commander of the Jin Yiwei Palm Seal, Wantong, wants to see you."

"Well, it seems that we have some clues about what we asked him to investigate. Let him come in."

After receiving Zhu Youtang's oral instructions, Wantong walked in and saw the emperor with his back turned to him. He quickly bowed and said, "I, your Majesty, Commander Wantong of the Royal Guards, would like to greet you."

"I'm in peace." Zhu Youtang did not look back at Wantong, but just replied lightly.

Because Wantong has not seen the emperor for a long time, and he has been idle for a long time since he was ordered to protect Wang Shu last time. Just when everyone thought that Wantong was going to be laid off, and the commander of Jin Yiwei's palm seal was going to be replaced, Zhu

Youtang suddenly gave Wantong another task. Although it was conveyed by someone, it already made Wantong very excited. For this investigation of Wu Zhun, Wantong personally took action, which lasted half a month. Wu Zhun's situation

It was because I was touched by Wantong!

"Wantong, do you have anything to report to me?" Zhu Youtang asked deliberately.

When Wantong saw that the emperor seemed to have forgotten the task entrusted to him, he quickly reminded him: "Your Majesty, you asked me to investigate the matter of Zhennan Pass garrison Wu Zhun, and I have already found out."

"Say." Zhu Youtang said calmly.

Wantong organized his thoughts and said:

"Your Majesty's guess is correct. Wu Zhun is really using his power to do evil, and the hawks and dogs under him are also doing many evil things. Wu Zhun has repeatedly squeezed out He Zhan since he took office, and He Zhan always gave in, except this time he beat up the people in He Zhan's mansion.

In addition to the people, I have also robbed many maids from He Zhan’s mansion before.”

"Is there a murder?"

"There were no murders, but Wu Zhun also occupied people's fields and harassed them many times this spring, causing many people to miss their sowing dates."

Hearing this, Zhu Youtang raised his eyebrows, turned around and said coldly: "This Wu Zhun is just a city gate guard. How dare he be so bold? Who is his backstage?"

Wantong hesitated for a moment, then swallowed the words as they reached his lips, and said, "There doesn't seem to be one backstage."

Zhu Youtang looked at Wantong and sneered: "Really there is no backing? How dare he be so rampant without a backing?"

In fact, Wu Zhun's background was known to Wantong, but he was still a little timid in view of Liu Ji's status. Today, he is no longer as high-spirited as he was when Concubine Wan Gui was there. Now he has no background, and he cannot strengthen his waist.

He couldn't afford to offend the chief minister of the cabinet. If Liu Ji knew about this matter today, he would probably be on tenterhooks in the future, but the emperor couldn't deceive him, so he might as well say a few words, so that both sides

There will be no further delay.

Seeing Wantong doing Tai Chi on his own, trying to get away with it, Zhu Youtang sneered a few times, slapped him with his backhand and cursed angrily: "You bastard, you still dare to deceive me now, I advise you to tell the truth, otherwise your

My head will hang at the entrance of the vegetable market."

Wantong covered the red half of his face and knelt down and begged for mercy: "I am guilty! I am guilty. Please spare my life. I will tell you right now that Wu Zhun's backstage is Mr. Liu Ge, the chief minister of the cabinet!"

"From today on, stop being a Jinyiwei and get out of the capital." Zhu Youtang snorted coldly, dropped a word, turned around and left angrily.

Wantong was at a loss and froze on the spot.

Unexpectedly, she originally wanted to please both parties, but unexpectedly offended both parties. Yanhai packed up his things and was about to leave when Wantong grabbed him by the corner of his trousers: "Mr. Yan, I, Wantong, beg you, please do it for me."

Say something nice to His Majesty and ask him to give me another chance!"

Yanhai looked at the lost Wan Tong and said coldly: "Master Wan, please remember that this world belongs to the emperor. You can't offend the emperor if you offend anyone, so just take care of yourself..."

Zhu Youtang walked a long way ahead angrily, and Yanhai trotted all the way to catch up, chanting: "Your Majesty, please calm down, the dragon body will not be well if you are angry."

"Yan Hai passed down my oral instructions and asked Liu Ji to come to Qianqing Palace to see me."

"Okay, Your Majesty, I'll go right now!"

"Wait, forget it, ask Mou Bin to come see me."

…

Back at the Qianqing Palace, Su Yin kept comforting Zhu Youtang with her kind words. Zhu Youtang held Su Yin's delicate hand and smiled softly: "I'm fine. I'll thank you for your help these days."

Su Yin blushed and said shyly: "This is what a slave should do."

Dusk had passed and the sky was gradually getting dark. After receiving the oracle, Mou Bin hurriedly entered the palace.

On the way, Mou Bin asked the young eunuch who delivered the order and heard that the emperor was furious in the Wenhua Palace. The specific reason was not clear.

Mou Bin has an upright character. Along the way, he only thought that he had made some mistake and made the emperor unhappy, and he was very upset.

Yanhai was on duty in front of the door, and saw a man from a royal guard walking over from a distance. Mou Bin walked to the door, lingered for a while, and then smiled at Yanhai:

"May I ask my father-in-law, is your Majesty still in Nuan Pavilion?"

Yanhai smiled softly and said: "His Majesty is waiting for you inside, just go in."

"Thank you, father-in-law, for informing me."

Mou Bin stepped into the Nuan Pavilion and saw nothing but pitch black darkness.

Two figures could be vaguely seen, and Mou Bin whispered softly: "I know that Mou Bin, commander of the Jinyi Guards, has met Your Majesty."

After hearing the words, Su Yinfang quickly broke away from Zhu Youtang's arms and said shyly: "Your Majesty is here."

"How is Zhang Peng's investigation going?"

Zhu Youtang straightened his clothes, stood up and moved around, took down the carved bow hanging on the wall, and played with it in his hands.

"Back to Your Majesty, Zhang Shangshu's ministers are investigating, but some clues have already been drawn. Zhang Shangshu travels frequently with some ministers in the court and collects a lot of money. Recently, Zhang Shangshu has been to Fengmingyuan more often."

While Mou Bin was talking, he raised his head and glanced around quietly, and saw that the young woman standing next to Zhu Youtang was the young woman he rescued last time.

Zhu Youtang chuckled and said: "I just issued a decree and our Zhang Shangshu committed a crime. Who did he meet in Fengmingyuan?"

Mou Bin paused and said: "Mr. Ge, what exactly are you talking about? Because there is a guard in front of the door, I can't get close, so I don't know."

"It's Mr. Ge again? He has taken over a lot of things recently. Has he had any contact with anyone suspicious?" Zhu Youtang asked. He had a feeling in his heart that Liu Ji was the biggest "player" behind the scenes.

"Except for Zhang Shangshu, there is no one suspicious."

"From today on, you will take over as the commander of the Jinyi Guards on behalf of Wantong." Zhu Youtang hung the carved bow back on the wall and looked at Su Yin.

Su Yin immediately understood and brought a plate from Dongnuan Pavilion and handed it to Mou Bin. Mou Bin looked at the plate with the words "Commander of the Jinyi Guards" engraved on it. The red flying fish was wearing official clothes, and his eyes gradually became moist.

He has been waiting for this position for ten years!

In the past ten years, he has endured a lot of hardships and been looked down upon by many people, but now the hardships have finally come to an end. Although he will become the royal "eagle dog" in the future, he believes that with his own ability, he will be able to leave a name in history instead of being infamy for thousands of years.

Mou Bin took it all from Su Yin's hand. He wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, Mou Bin."

"Pass the decree, send Tiqi out of the capital, go to Zhennanguan to capture Wu Zhun, escort him back to the capital, dismiss him from his post and investigate, and Zhang Peng, Secretary of the Ministry of War, will be dismissed from his post and investigated, and his family property will be confiscated!" After saying this, Zhu Youtang walked over with his hands behind his back.

"Ask the cabinet to draft a charter. I will see the candidate to succeed the Minister of War tomorrow morning!"

After Mou Bin accepted the order and resigned, Zhu Youtang sent another order: "Notify Liu Ji and ask him to take care of all the people under his command."

After everyone left, Zhu Youtang looked at Su Yin lovingly and said, "The Queen is not feeling well tonight, how about you stay in bed?"

Su Yin's face turned red and she whispered: "Your Majesty is looking for another beautiful woman. I am a slave from a humble background. How dare you sleep with me in a dragon body?"

Zhu Youtang took Su Yin into his arms, kissed her, and whispered in Su Yin's ear: "I say you are worthy, you are worthy. Since Emperor Taizu, the Zhu family has always chosen girls as concubines.

tradition of."

Su Yin's face turned red and she turned away.

Zhu Youtang picked up Su Yin by the waist and said with a smile: "After tonight, you will be my woman."

…

That night, all the Tiqi from the Forbidden City rushed to southern Xinjiang. Zhang Peng, the Minister of the Ministry of War, was taken into prison, waiting for investigation. When this incident came out, all the officials were shocked.
Chapter completed!
