Prior to this, Zhao Junchen's team had been traveling non-stop for three consecutive days, and they had been busy all night last night. By the morning of this day, everyone was exhausted and had almost reached their limit.
Zhao Junchen has always been in good health and has a tough temperament, but when he put on his official uniform and walked out of the inn, he also felt weak in his legs and feet, and his chest was tight, as if his heart was tightly held by a hand, and he would die at any time.
rupture.
This is a sign of extreme physical and mental exhaustion.
But after considering the urgency of the matter, Zhao Junchen still gritted his teeth and persisted.
The situation of border defense is more severe than imagined, so the matter in Shanxi must be resolved as soon as possible, because Zhao Junchen does not plan to stay in Shanxi for too long. All his plans are focused on the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu. The imperial court's border defense plan is also on the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu.
More importantly, Shanxi only played a supporting role, but only by solving the Shanxi issue and using the governor of Shanxi, Li Xun, to catch the evidence of the Shanxi and Gansu feudal officials, Zhao Junchen could successfully control Shaanxi.
Gan situation.
The strange thing is that Zhao Junchen has clearly reached his limit, but Zhao Junchen's royal guards are not complaining and tired as usual. Instead, they are all inexplicably excited, as if they have completely forgotten about their body and mind.
tired.
But after careful consideration, this is a matter of course. Zhao Junchen is obviously about to take action against Shanxi Governor Li Xun. This means that the Jinyi guards are about to have the opportunity to make money. Under the stimulation of oil and water, they will naturally not
Be aware of a little fatigue.
After understanding Jin Yiwei's thoughts, Zhao Junchen felt a little dumbfounded.
But soon, Zhao Junchen had put away the distracting thoughts in his heart, and just rode on his horse with a solemn expression, leading the royal guards towards the governor's Yamen.
At this time, the Jinyi guards had all put on the Pisces robes that represented their identities, and they had all returned to their usual domineering appearance. Under their crowd, the people on the road moved away one after another.
The traffic was smooth and we soon arrived at the governor's office.
The news that the Jin Yiwei appeared in Taiyuan City spread quickly. Everyone was speculating. They didn't know why the Jin Yiwei suddenly appeared. Some dignitaries in Taiyuan City, after hearing the news,
They immediately thought of some of their secret plans, and their expressions changed drastically and they felt panicked.
After arriving at the governor's Yamen, Zhao Junchen was not polite at all, and immediately ordered the guards to surround the entire governor's Yamen, confiscated the weapons in the hands of the officials, and completely controlled the situation in the governor's Yamen.
Then, Zhao Junchen stepped into the Shanxi Governor's Yamen with a cold face.

At this time, Shanxi Governor Li Xun was handling official business in his office room.
Li Xun is now in his prime. After completing his term as governor of Shanxi, he will retire and return to his hometown. His body is thin, his hair and beard are all white, and his pair of gray eyebrows make him look particularly harmless.
In fact, Li Xun's current thinking is also that "human beings and animals are harmless". He only hopes that he can end his official career safely and smoothly, retire and return to his hometown.
Unfortunately, everything did not go as expected. Li Xun was about to retire and return to his hometown. He never thought that Shanxi would encounter big troubles one after another. Not only were they plagued by disasters for many years, but they also encountered the extremely serious situation of the Huoshan invaders. Li Xun
Xun only felt that God was unfair and deliberately wanted to make things difficult for him.
During this period of time, Li Xun had to complain to his clan brother and staff member Li Qian every day, and Li Qian would find a way to comfort Li Xun every time.
On the morning of this day, Li Xun wanted to complain again, but found that Li Qian had not come to the governor's office for a long time. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. When he was about to ask someone to find Li Qian, he suddenly saw a government official
He stumbled into the room.
Seeing such a situation, Li Xun's grey-haired eyebrows furrowed and he was about to reprimand, but he heard the government official say urgently: "Master Governor, things are not going well! Someone claims to be the imperial envoy of the imperial court, the Minister of Household Affairs Zhao
Junchen led a large group of imperial guards to surround the governor's office, blocked the roads around the governor's office, and confiscated the weapons and weapons of the government officials. His attitude was extremely bad..."
After hearing the report from the Yamen servant, Li Xun's expression suddenly changed and he asked: "Zhao Junchen? Imperial Envoy? Jin Yiwei? Why did they suddenly come to the Governor's Yamen? Why haven't I received the news? What happened to them when they came to the Governor's Yamen?"
What's the matter?..."
Speaking of this, Li Xun suddenly turned pale, but he remembered a certain plan he had been secretly carrying out without telling the court.
Could it be that that plan was exposed?
Thinking of this, Li Xun's body trembled again!
When Li Xun thought about it, although his plan was a bit cruel, it was also for the imperial court's border defense plan and came from a public spirit. However, once this plan was exposed, it would definitely cause an uproar in the world and be spurned by everyone.
At that time, Li Xun would not only be unable to retire and return home smoothly, but he would also be infamy for thousands of years!
Therefore, that plan must not be exposed!
For a moment, Li Xun became more and more panicked and hurriedly ordered: "Quick! Go and tell the Chief Minister Wu about this! By the way, let someone tell Guo Linxiang about this and ask him to come here immediately.
, he has some friendship with Zhao Junchen, maybe... and send someone to mobilize troops immediately!"
When talking about the deployment of troops, Li Xun's expression was a little decisive.
However, after hearing Li Xun's instructions, the yamen official said with a grimace: "Sir, the front and back doors of the yamen are controlled by Jin Yiwei, and the surrounding streets are also blocked by Jin Yiwei. No news can be spread at all!
"
Following the officer's explanation, Li Xun immediately slumped down in his chair, his expression becoming more frightened, and he murmured: "Maybe, maybe I'm thinking too much. The plan is very hidden, and the imperial envoy may not know the news..."
At this moment, someone suddenly said coldly outside the office room: "Governor Li, the imperial envoy is waiting for you in the main hall. Please come with us!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several Jinyi guards were seen entering the room.
The leader of the Jin Yiwei even sneered. After sizing up Li Xun, he added: "In addition, the Imperial Envoy has specially sent people to invite Shanxi Governor Wu Chang'an and Shanxi merchant Guo Linxiang.
There is no need for Governor Li to send more people, they will come here to meet with Governor Li soon! Also, why did Governor Li ask someone to lead troops here just now? What is his intention? What Governor Li said
What exactly is that plan? I hope Governor Li will personally explain these issues to the Imperial Envoy!"
Then, seeing Li Xun's expression becoming more miserable, the Jin Yiwei couldn't help but look disdainful, waved his hand to the Jin Yiwei behind him and ordered: "Take him away!"
