The person who came to report was Wang Yuan, the imperial official.

When Emperor Wu of Liang was in power, in order to improve administrative efficiency, he established the inner court and the outer court. The inner court was an institution dedicated to serving the emperor and handling government affairs.

This is similar to Daning's cabinet system, where the inner court decides on all major national affairs.

Inner court officials are also called inner court officials, usually five to seven people, and Wang Yuan is one of them.

He hurriedly walked in.

Zhu Zhen had just calmed down a little, but his heart skipped a beat when he heard such a performance.

"The people of Bianjing City, please play?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Wang Yuan said: "The people gathered outside the imperial city, shouting for peace, and the situation became stronger and stronger. Your Majesty, please make a decision, how to deal with it?"

"What?"

Zhu Zhen frowned and asked, "Why would the people do such a thing?"

The first thing he thought of was that someone was organizing it behind the scenes. There had just been such a commotion at the court meeting, and then there had been a commotion in the city. This was premeditated!

"It's out of fear, Your Majesty!"

Wang Yuan said: "The people in the city are afraid that the Daning army will attack, and Emperor Yuanwu will kill them..."

"Nonsense!"

Zhu Zhen said coldly: "There must be someone behind this who intends to destroy the foundation of my beam!"

"When have we, the people of Liang, been so weak? If there is a flood of requests for peace, where will the integrity of the people of Liang be?"

Zhu Zhen originally thought that he had over-promoted his propaganda and it was normal for the courtiers to be afraid, but now he suspected that there was someone organizing behind it!

But he never thought that the courtiers were afraid of this, and the people should be even more so.

He personally went to the streets and gathered the people to spread the word about the abominations of Emperor Daning...

Naturally, the people hate war and are quite afraid of it.

Daning's refusal to sue for peace meant that he would launch a war. After Zhu Zhen's publicity, he really wanted to inspire, but invisibly gave people the intention of starting a war soon and recruiting troops soon...

How will the people feel?

But Zhu Zhen didn't think that was the case, he thought there was a conspiracy!

"There must be someone in the court who is collaborating with the enemy, either his heart belongs to Daning, or he has already surrendered to Daning!"

"right!"

"That's it!"

"With Lu Zhengyuan and Hu Biao and his like taking the lead, there will be others who will follow suit!"

Zhu Zhen instantly figured out that it was not that he was suspicious, but that he had experienced such a thing.

Traveling thousands of miles to Daning to seek peace is not without rewards, as people's hearts are the most unpredictable.

Now that the Liang Kingdom is in decline and almost collapsed, it is normal for the courtiers and officials to look for other ways out.

Damn Lu Zhengyuan, he really took the lead...

Hearing what Zhu Zhen said, Wang Yuan's eyes moved slightly. His Majesty's words were not unreasonable. Even if he was afraid, it would not be to such an extent.

"Your Majesty, I think it's time for a thorough investigation!"

Wang Yuan immediately said: "Since Lu Zhengyuan, Hu Biao and others defected to Daning, they seem to have set a precedent. I am afraid that future generations will follow suit!"

"Do you think so too?"

"I never thought about it before, but since what happened to Lu Zhengyuan, I have to think about it more."

Wang Yuan was once a person left by Zhu Ji, the second prince of Liang Kingdom. After Zhu Zhen came to the throne, he hired many such people.

This can be regarded as the political legacy left to him by Zhu Ji.

If it hadn't been for Zhu Ji's entrustment, he might not have rebelled...

Wang Yuan is a talented person, otherwise he would not have been appointed as an imperial minister.

Lu Zhengyuan defected and the Crown Princess followed Emperor Daning. This was a matter that brought shame to the Liang Kingdom and was a taboo that could not even be mentioned.

It was claimed that they were dead, but everyone knew the truth.

Wang Yuan's words strengthened Zhu Zhen's thoughts!

"Check, check to the end!"

Zhu Zhen said coldly: "Wang Yuan, I will give you the Emperor's Sword, and you will supervise this matter. You must investigate and deal with it strictly, and never forgive anyone!"

"Receive the Holy Will!"

Wang Yuan received the order.

He originally wanted to show off in front of His Majesty. Although he was reused, he was still a member of the late Second Prince Zhu Ji. If he wanted to truly become His Majesty's person, he had to make some real achievements.

Now, obeying the Holy Will is an opportunity to make real achievements.

This was settled in a few words.

Pang Shigu, who was also in the hall, had no time to speak.

He then remonstrated: "Your Majesty, before we preached the evil of Emperor Yuanwu with words and words, even the courtiers were extremely frightened. It is normal for the people to be frightened. If this is strictly investigated, it will definitely arouse people's panic. Maybe the courtiers are not like this at all.

I was also forced to have different ideas. At this time, I need to maintain the stability of the government!"

"The lower officials do not agree with what the prime minister said."

Wang Yuan said: "Before the incident, who would have thought that the Crown Princess would know that she belonged to Emperor Yuanwu? How could they have thought that the future Daliang Patriarch would give up his family business and join Daning?"

"It will be too late by then. The most important thing is to curb this trend and never let something like this happen again!"

Wang Yuan's words touched Zhu Zhen's heart.

Even Zhu Zhen himself didn't notice that he already felt guilty. The decline of Liang State made him no longer confident in retaining these courtiers, and it was these people he hated the most!

"Not only the officials in the DPRK but also the local officials must be investigated, especially the local officials in Liaoqing Province and those close to the garrison in Daning must be investigated strictly!"

He could think of wooing people from Daning, but couldn't Daning think of bribing Liang's officials?

In comparison, it should be easier, right?

"Receive the Holy Will!"

Wang Yuan said solemnly: "I will never let down your majesty's great trust!"
