Pei Tianlin thought very well and was very careful.
If this matter was originally instigated by Emperor Wu, then he would definitely protect Zhao Bingzhong.
Then he advised himself not to be nice to Zhao Bingzhong and just forgive him.
If that's the case, I can almost conclude that Zhao Bingzhong has already taken the shape of Emperor Wu!
But unexpectedly, after a while, when Zhao Bingzhong finished speaking, Emperor Wu's reaction shocked Pei Tianlin!
"You bastard! This is so unreasonable!"
Emperor Wu slapped the table!
"Zhao Bingzhong! What's the matter with you? Since there is no problem with the goods, why did you stop it?"
"As the leader of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, don't you even know what should be investigated and what should not be investigated?"
Zhao Bingzhong was trembling with fear.
"Your Majesty, I will punish you! I also failed to discipline you!"
"Those people down there are greedy and covet two carts of treasures, so they would do such a thing!"
"I really cannot absolve myself of the blame! Your Majesty, please punish me severely!"
That sincere expression doesn't seem fake at all.
Emperor Wu sneered and said: "That's right, I really should punish you!"
"I have just been promoted to the leader of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and yet I have done the following illegal things! If one day my things have to be transported outside the city, will you continue to use the same reason to stop the goods?"
"I would never dare to do this!"
Zhao Bingzhong immediately fell to his knees.
"Hmph! Don't you dare? I see you've already rushed!"
The more Emperor Wu talked, the angrier he became!
"Here comes someone! Take off Zhao Bingzhong's armor and official uniform! Take him to prison! Beat him with eighty sticks! Facing the wall and thinking about it for a month!"
"You go in here and remember it! If you dare to do this again in the future, I will chop off your head!"
The extremely turbulent tone not only shocked Zhao Bingzhong.
At this moment, even Pei Tianlin looked surprised.
This situation is wrong! It is completely different from what I thought!
Logically speaking, Emperor Wu should not be angry, but would instead beg for mercy for Zhao Bingzhong.
How could he be more cruel than himself? He would be beaten with eighty sticks and thrown into a prison to face the wall and think about his mistakes.
Could it be that it was really not ordered by His Majesty the Emperor?
After thinking about it, Pei Tianlin felt that this should be the case.
Everything Zhao Bingzhong had was given to him by himself, there was no reason for him to seek refuge with Emperor Wu.
Moreover, Emperor Wu was just a puppet, and it was difficult for him to even leave the palace and ascend to heaven.
If you want to instruct Zhao Bingzhong to do these things, you will definitely need constant contact and constant brainwashing.
But Emperor Wu did not have such conditions. If he relied on Chen Mohan, then Zhao Bingzhong would have no reason to trust Chen Mohan.
Are you really overthinking it?
Is all this just Zhao Bingzhong's own mistake?
Is it because of the greed of his subordinates?
Pei Tianlin thought for a long time, and finally chose to believe it.
Because at least for now, this is the most credible reason!
Thinking of this, he quickly raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this punishment is quite severe."
"In my opinion, it is better to waive the responsibilities of the staff and let General Zhao finish the work in the camp of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division."
He is speaking for Zhao Bingzhong.
When Emperor Wu heard this, his anger subsided a little.
But he was still a little angry.
"Master Zhang, this guy has just been promoted to a high position, we must let him know how powerful he is!"
"Otherwise, he will be a domineering person again in the future! It will bring disaster to the capital!"
"Your Majesty, General Zhao was once a bodyguard of the Queen Mother. How did he ever behave in a tyrannical manner? From my perspective, this matter has nothing to do with General Zhao himself."
Pei Tianlin continued to persuade, this time his words were more sincere.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't intend to worry about this matter anymore."
After hearing this, Emperor Wu calmed down.
"If that's the case, then I'll let you go!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you so much, Lord Abbot!"
Zhao Bingzhong quickly thanked him excitedly.
Emperor Wu still said fiercely: "But remember, you won't do this again!"
"If something like this happens again next time, I will never tolerate it!"
"Yes! Your Majesty, please rest assured! I will rectify the soldiers below as soon as I get back! Let them never make such a mistake again!"
Zhao Bingzhong spoke with a firm voice.
Naturally, Pei Tianlin didn't say anything more. When Emperor Wu waved his hand, he and Zhao Bingzhong withdrew.
When he returned to the mansion, Zhao Bingzhong still showed a humble attitude.
"I would like to thank you, Lord Zhang, for your mercy. I am deeply grateful."
"You don't need to thank me. The Emperor understands the righteousness of this matter."
Pei Tianlin said calmly.
After speaking, he took a sip of tea, his tone a bit scolding.
"I hope you remember that even if you become the leader of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, you should never feel that you are incomparable!"
"I have a hundred ways to pull you down. As long as you listen to me, I guarantee that you will be rich and prosperous and can always sit in this position!"
Pei Tianlin used coercion and inducement, and this was also his usual tactic.
Zhao Bingzhong bowed respectfully.
"I have always thought this way, and I would like to thank the father-in-law for your advice. Please rest assured that this kind of thing will never happen again!"
"That's the best! Just step back, I'm tired."
Pei Tianlin waved his hand and said.
Zhao Bingzhong did not stay any longer and immediately accepted the order to leave.
However, as soon as he left the mansion, his expression became very sinister.
Zhao Bingzhong clenched his fists and walked straight towards the city gate without even looking back.
At this time, Pei Tianlin had finally dispelled his worries about Zhao Bingzhong.
At least for now, it seems that this guy is still under his control and has nothing to do with Emperor Wu!
"But you still have to be careful."
Pei Tianlin frowned.
Although I really need Zhao Bingzhong's help now, I still have to be careful.
After waving his hand, a black shadow instantly appeared in the room.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
"In the past few days, keep a close eye on Zhao Bingzhong. If there is any movement from him, report it to me immediately!"
"Yes, I'll go right away."
After saying that, the black shadow quickly left the room.
At this time, in the palace, Chen Mohan asked to see Emperor Wu again.
As soon as he entered the palace, Emperor Wu didn't even raise his head, having already guessed who was coming.
"Is it Mr. Chen?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, that's exactly it."
Chen Mohan whispered: "Your Majesty, I have brought you someone."
"Um?"
Emperor Wu looked confused.
The next second, a black figure was seen slowly entering the palace.
Looking at the figure in front of him, Emperor Wu was a little stunned.
"If I remember correctly, you are Cang Hong, the commander of the Jinyi Guards?"
"Yes, I, your Majesty, Canghong."
Cang Hong immediately saluted.
Emperor Wu became even more puzzled.
"What's the matter with Commander Cang coming over this late at night?"
"Your Majesty, I am listening to Lin Yiqiu's order and come here to give your Majesty a gift!"
"Gift?"
Emperor Wu looked slightly stunned.
Then, Chen Mohan stepped forward, approached Emperor Wu, and spoke a few words in his ear.
Not long after, Emperor Wu reacted, and a smile instantly appeared on his lips.
"As expected of Governor Lin, this is such a wonderful move!" This chapter has been completed!
