"Master Zhou has a prosperous official career, unlike Mr. Xiong, who is in such a state of decline!" Xiong Tingbi smiled self-deprecatingly. Xiong Tingbi looked extremely lonely, and he looked a bit like a hero in his twilight years.

Zhou Jiamo nodded thoughtfully, looked at the Forbidden City gratefully, and said slowly: "Master Xiong, don't worry too much. His Majesty has issued an order to release Master Xiong home. As for the matters involving the impeachment of Master Xiong,

In the morning court three days later, His Majesty will personally question Mr. Xiong."

While the two were talking, a group of soldiers walked out of the Forbidden City. They were all guards of Emperor Tianqi. When they came to the front of the wooden cage, they did not look at Zhou Jiamo and Zuo Guangdou who were standing aside, but looked at them expressionlessly.

Looking at Xiong Tingbi, the leader said solemnly: "Master Xiong, we have been ordered to release Master Xiong." After saying that, he opened the wooden cage.

After getting out of the prison car with the help of the guards, Xiong Tingbi slowly knelt down facing the Forbidden City. At this time, the eyes of the veteran general in the killing field were red, and he said in a hoarse voice: "The emperor's kindness is so great that I will never be able to repay it with my death!"

"

Looking at the guards going away, Zhou Jiamo coveted Xiong Tingbi and said with a smile: "Master Xiong, I will take you back, and we will talk while walking!"

Seeing that Zhou Jiamo's expression was very serious and he was still unfinished when he spoke, Xiong Tingbi's eyes suddenly shrank, he nodded slowly, and the three of them walked not far away.

"Master Zhou, I wonder if you are in court today?" Xiong Tingbi couldn't wait to ask as soon as he walked out. Xiong Tingbi was naturally worried about his life and fortune.

"Master Xiong, Zhou's words may be a bit harsh. I hope Master Xiong won't take offense!" After accusing Xiong Tingbi, Zhou Jiamo continued: "Today in the court, the first person to come out to impeach Master Zhou was the censor Feng Sanyuan.

, If I don’t tell you about this person, Master Zhou must also know about it.”

Of course Xiong Tingbi knew about this person. He had scolded this person at the beginning. Seeing Zhou Jiamo's cryptic words, Xiong Tingbi nodded awkwardly.

"The second person to stand up is Yao Zongwen, Minister of the Ministry of War. This person must be familiar to Master Xiong!" Zhou Jiamo's tone was a bit teasing at this time. Seeing Xiong Tingbi's embarrassment, he smiled and said: "As for the third person,

Master Xiong must have never thought of it."

"Who is it?" Xiong Tingbi knew that he had offended too many people, but most people would just sit back and watch the fight. Before they understood Emperor Tianqi's true intention, few ministers would reveal their thoughts. After all,

Being wise and protecting yourself is not just talk!

"This person is Gu Zhen, the cabinet scholar!" Zhou Jiamo's expression was quite serious, and he was careful when he said the name.

"How could it be him? Although Xiong has offended many people, he has not been offended by him?" Xiong Tingbi was a little confused. Although he had a bad temper and liked to curse people, he had never scolded the cabinet bachelor. How could a Gu come out like this?

Where is 楥?

"Zhou doesn't know about this, but I think there is a reason. If you connect these four people, the Governor of Liaodong Yang Yuan, the imperial censor Feng Sanyuan, the minister of war Yao Zongwen, and the cabinet scholar Gu Zhen, I don't know what Mr. Xiong will do.

What do you think of?" Although Zhou Jiamo knew something was wrong, he really couldn't figure out what these people were going to do. He must ask Yang Lian carefully when he came out. Zhou Jiamo believed that Yang Lian, who had a keen sense of politics, would be able to guess something.

What, as for Zuo Guangdou, who was frowning, Zhou Jiamo was not considering it at all.

"Well, forget it! There is nothing Xiong can do about the disputes in the court. Since Mr. Zhou can't figure it out, I can't figure it out even more." Xiong Tingbi shook his head with a wry smile, and Xiong Tingbi and Zhou Jiamo walked slowly.

and walked away.

At this time, Yang Lian, who was in Zhou Jiamo's mind, was standing respectfully in front of the Long Bookcase in the study room, with a wry smile on his face.

"Come here! Give Mr. Yang that stool, don't make Mr. Yang tired." He glanced at Yang Lian standing below with a frown, and Emperor Tianqi said angrily and funny.

"My lord, thank you for your kindness." He bowed respectfully to Emperor Tianqi. Yang Lian was not polite. He took the stool from the eunuch's hand and sat on it. After standing for the whole morning, Yang Lian must be really tired!

"Now that you're here, let's talk about it! What do you want from me?" Emperor Tianqi rubbed his swollen eyes, looked at Yang Lian with a smile, and said softly.

Yang Lian kept thinking in his heart, how should he say this? After a long while, he said: "Your Majesty, I feel that there is something fishy about what happened today!"

Seeing that Yang Lian looked like he was about to be in chaos, Emperor Tianqi laughed and scolded: "If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. I don't have time to watch you act here!"

"If there is anything wrong with me, your Majesty will pardon me!" Yang Lian said slowly as he carefully glanced at Emperor Tianqi.

"If you have something to say, just say it. If you have..., I want to punish you, but I can wait until now." He glared at Yang Lian fiercely, and Emperor Tianqi said with a smile.

Yang Lian smiled awkwardly and said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty's guardian naturally knows." Then he said seriously: "It's just that what happened today is very unusual. Yang Yuan escorted Xiong Tingbi to Beijing. This is nothing."

, It was just about Yang Hao. When Yang Hao was imprisoned, Xiong Tingbi escorted Yang Hao directly to Beijing, but Xiong Tingbi was an imperial envoy at that time, and his status was different." As if remembering what Emperor Tianqi said in the court, Yang

Lian took back his words again.

Seeing that Emperor Tianqi's expression did not change, Yang Lian continued: "Feng Sanyuan and Yao Zongwen just have a rift with Xiong Tingbi, and it is reasonable for them to come out to impeach Xiong Tingbi. However, before His Majesty made a statement, these two people stood up

It is obviously abnormal. Gu Zhen's participation in impeachment is even more unreasonable. This bachelor Gu is very cautious in everything. He rarely expresses opinions in the cabinet and abides by his duty. This time

Things are very abnormal, I really don’t understand why he would do this?”

Looking at Yang Lian with a smile, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "What's so difficult to understand? Maybe I'm just confused. Okay, don't interfere in this matter. I'll have something for you to handle in a few days.

Go home now!"

He glanced at Emperor Tianqi with some doubts. Yang Lian really didn't know what the young emperor was thinking. Although he was full of doubts, he could only bow and said: "I leave."

Seeing that Yang Lian had left, Emperor Tianqi slowly walked out of the imperial study. Seeing the gloomy sky outside, he said softly: "Some people are always restless. If it weren't for the lack of time, I would never tolerate you. I hope this

This time you can remember, don’t stretch your hands too long!”

Looking back at Chen Hong, Emperor Tianqi said seriously: "Get Luo Sigong and Wei Chao for me!"
