Secret port, giant ships, large amounts of gold and silver, used for a long time...

These words kept flashing in Emperor Jing's mind.

"It seems that the fourth brother has been planning for a long time, and maybe he has been thinking about going to sea for a long time."

"The news of Fang Zhengyi's investigation of salt merchants in Haiyuan City and the fourth brother's rebellion has spread, right?" Emperor Jing asked.

In fact, when I met with the cabinet minister at the Warm Pavilion that day, the crown prince captured the fake King of Wu and was ready to understand in depth.

It is normal to spread it privately.

Guo Tianyang nodded after hearing this, and said, "There are quite a lot of discussions in private."

"Well... I have no health and must keep it confidential to you first. I have been resting in the imperial study these few days, just pretending that I have not recovered from the serious illness."

"You spread the news from the secret newspaper...don't go through the palace."

Although Guo Tianyang was confused, he nodded and said, "Your Majesty, will you arrange it now?"

"Well, you all go, remember to do things safely! Don't leak the news, and the two people in Taoyuan County, let them be more strict."

Guo Tianyang took Doctor Hu and left the imperial study room.

Li Yuanzhao did not leave, and stood there hesitated a little.

Emperor Jing couldn't help but smile when he looked at this look: "If you want to stay, stay. I have not been to court these days. I will rest here. You will still review the memorials and I will accompany you to read them."

Li Yuanzhao hesitated and said, "Father, why did you let me pass on Lao Fang's news secretly, but don't let people know that you are in good health?"

"What do you think?" Emperor Jing asked, "Don't be anxious, think slowly."

Li Yuanzhao sat back in front of Emperor Jing and said thoughtfully: "I don't know."

“…”

Emperor Jing glanced at him deeply, and his heart was filled with powerlessness.

This beast really doesn't speak human language. Why do good people have a mouth open?

"I know all the industries of the vassal kings in the capital. The fourth brother fled overseas. He had a large amount of gold and silver, colluded with salt merchants, and could build giant ships thousands of miles away from the capital. If these were all done by him alone, do you think I would not know?"

Li Yuanzhao suddenly realized: "Ah! I understand, so there must be an internal supporter in the court to help him do things. Lao Fang is a hidden danger. If he is asked to return to Beijing, he may cause death! If the father is healthy, he will definitely protect Lao Fang. He will not be in charge of the government affairs, so he can take advantage of the opportunity!"

"But I didn't understand how he should stop Lao Fang from returning to Beijing?"

Emperor Jing was very pleased, and it seemed that his son was quite smart.

"It's very simple. First, convict him first, and then send someone to intercept him privately. If a sinner is killed, the impact of this matter can be minimized."

"Then why didn't the father directly investigate? You could search directly on the surface, so why is it so troublesome?"

Emperor Jing patiently explained: "It is not possible to do whatever he wants to be the emperor."

"The emperor and the literati have shared the world with the literati and officials. I have killed enough people before. Now the world is peaceful, and there is no evidence to rely on speculation. Rough practices will attract dissatisfaction from many gentry. Simple and rough are easy to deal with, but in the long run, I am afraid no one will do things sincerely for me and tell me the truth."

Li Yuanzhao shook his head and sighed: "The father always says he is for the people. He shouldn't he share the world with the people. I'm afraid that they will do anything, and at worst he will be able to choose a new official."

Emperor Jing suddenly laughed, with a helpless smile: "Don't say such words in front of others, as they will be laughed at."

"You remember the bad news. Last time I talked about Uncle Qin, the guardian..."

Several families started discussing one mouthful of chickens and one mouthful of ducks.

The face was flushed and the chicken was frozen!

Fang Zheng was impatient when he heard this: "I won't talk about it today! I'll take my brother to dinner tonight, so you go to bed first."

"Tsk~~" the servants scattered...
