Chapter 802: This similar scene

 By the time Ruan Lang returned to Nangong, he was already dead.

If a hundred sticks were struck, let alone an old and frail old eunuch like him, even a strong martial artist would most likely not be able to save his life.

Huaien took Ruan Lang's body and stood quietly in the Chonghua Hall. Opposite him was the Supreme Emperor with a cold face and barely suppressed anger.

"Your Majesty, Huaien, would like to pay my respects to the Supreme Emperor."

After bowing, Wynn opened his mouth and said.

"On your Majesty's order, Eunuch Ruan Lang is sent back to the Nangong Palace. Your Majesty has decreed that the internal minister Ruan Lang interfered with the affairs of the court without authorization in the Wuying Palace, blatantly offended the important ministers of the court, violated Taizu's iron law, and was demoted to Nangong Sweeper with a hundred sticks. Internal eunuch."

"Relegated to being a sweeper?"

Zhu Qizhen was sitting on the throne with a gloomy face. When he heard Wynn's words, he almost laughed out of anger.

"You just want to send a corpse to be my eunuch?"

However, in the face of the Emperor's anger, Wynn did not have any special reaction, he just cupped his hands.

"Back to the Supreme Emperor, Eunuch Ruan was weak and died after being tortured for seventy-two sticks. The ministers also felt very sorry for this."

"After all, at the beginning, Eunuch Liu Yongcheng received a staff of 142 times before he died. Your Majesty ordered Eunuch Ruan to receive a staff of 100. In fact, you also intended to spare his life. Otherwise, there would be no edict of disparagement. Please enlighten me!"

A clear warning?

I know you are a ****!

Zhu Qizhen finally figured out that this Huai En was here to disgust him.

If there had not been an edict to sweep away the eunuchs, then after being beaten with a hundred sticks, the person would be dead and buried in a mass grave.

But now, with this edict, Hua En can send people back to Nangong in an honest and fair manner. What if it's not disgusting him?

Looking at Wynn coldly, Zhu Qizhen still didn't get angry.

A tiger falls on the sun and is bullied by dogs, a dragon swims in shallow water and is teased by shrimps. From the time he was in Xuanfu, Zhu Qizhen understood that the slaves under the emperor now are not easy to mess with.

Although he is the Supreme Emperor, he cannot deal with these so-called royal servants even if he wants to.

I didn't see that bastard Shu Liang was making such a scene in the Xuan Mansion, but now, isn't the limelight gone, and he is still the majestic Admiral of Dongchang?

The current emperor seems to be fair and upright, but in fact, when it comes to protecting shortcomings, he is no less than him.

It's just that compared to himself, his younger brother is better at restraining his subordinates and is better at pretending to be fair!

Therefore, it is useless to be angry with this humble slave in front of you.

What should really be remembered in this account is the master behind him!

After taking a deep breath, Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and asked the two chamberlains below to carry Ruan Lang down and said coldly.

"People, I accept it, get out!"

Hearing such a disgusted tone, Wynn still bowed with a smile.

"To report to the Supreme Emperor, the ministers are here. In addition to returning Eunuch Ruan's body, they also have two edicts to convey. The Supreme Emperor can rest assured. After the edicts have been conveyed, the ministers will leave Nangong immediately."

This familiar scene reminded Zhu Qizhen of a certain memory that he never wanted to remember again. He squinted his eyes, suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and said.

"Say something quickly!"

"The first edict, Your Majesty said, in order to prevent the appearance of forgery of imperial edicts again, from now on, all edicts in Nangong must be signed by the Supreme Emperor himself."

Zhu Qizhen still looked at Huaien coldly without saying a word.

He knew that it was useless to say anything at this time. Unlike what Ruan Lang thought, Zhu Qizhen knew from the moment he let Bodu go that there was little chance that this matter could be resolved.

He is not a person without political sensitivity, and he is very clear about what it means when someone "falsely spreads" the imperial edict.

Even if the courtiers accept his reasons, they will definitely take measures to prevent this situation from happening again.

Therefore, he was not surprised by this edict. Of course, this notification-like way of announcing the edict still made him unhappy.

Seeing Wynn still standing there, Zhu Qizhen frowned and asked.

"anything else?"

The two wills, what Wynn said are just one, as for the rest...

After Zhu Qizhen finished speaking, he felt regretful.

Because he saw a smile on Wynn's face after he finished speaking. This smile made him very uneasy, but it was too late to stop it.

Huaien said: "To report to the Emperor, His Majesty said that forging imperial edicts is of great importance and cannot be done by just one or two attendants. Therefore, there must be someone secretly involved. The Emperor is kind and tolerant, but he can easily be deceived by his servants.

If things continue like this, the Nangong will be restless and the country will be restless."

"Therefore, all the people who are going to spring hunting with the Supreme Emperor this time need to go with our family and hand them over to the Jin Yiwei for detailed investigation before handling them."

"Here is the list. Please take a look at it and give these people to our family to take away!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Qizhen's face instantly became extremely ugly.

"You are presumptuous!"

At this point, seeing the other party getting closer and closer, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.

Ruan Lang died, and he had already lost his heart. He originally thought that this matter should be settled.

But he never thought that his younger brother was so ruthless that he would take this opportunity to arrest all the people in Nangong.

You don't need to think about it to know that once these people are handed over, it will not only be extremely difficult to come back, but it is even doubtful whether their lives can be saved.

How could he endure this?

The majestic Emperor cannot even protect his own attendants, so how can he save his face?

He didn't expect that even though he kept enduring it, these slaves would get more and more angry!

You must know that the people he brought out in Chunlie were basically his confidants. Most of them were sent to him after the Empress Dowager Sun carefully checked their family background.

Zhu Qizhen was able to live such a comfortable and comfortable life during his stay in Nangong. Most of the reasons were because of the dedicated service of these people.

Otherwise, he would have to worry every day about whether someone might be harboring evil intentions about his food and clothing.

It is essential to be on guard against others, not to mention, given his current situation, Zhu Qizhen felt that if he moved to another place, he would not be able to do nothing in peace.

But now, Wynn wants to take all these people away, which is difficult for him to accept.

With a calm face, Zhu Qizhen could barely maintain his composure and said coldly.

"He belongs to Nangong. I will order someone to review and deal with him, so there is no need to take him elsewhere. If there are any results, I will inform the emperor. Please step back."

It should be said that Zhu Qizhen still had some idea of ​​his situation and status. Although his words were unquestionable, he still had some sense of discretion and did not directly deny the other party's intention. He only said that he would deal with it himself.

From Zhu Qizhen's point of view, he felt that by doing so, he had saved enough face for the other party. He did not intend to save everyone, but only wanted to deal with a group of people and keep a group of the most trusted ones.

However, this idea is obviously not acceptable to Wynn.

After hearing the Emperor's expulsion order, Wynn still didn't react at all. He stood firmly on the spot and cupped his hands.

"The Supreme Emperor should not make things difficult for his ministers. Your Majesty has said that he should let his ministers take the person away. If he cannot take the person away, wouldn't it be a violation of the holy order? The Supreme Emperor, please understand the difficulties faced by his ministers and hand him over."

The words were polite, but the steps that never moved under his feet showed his firm attitude.

Seeing Wynn who didn't move at all, Zhu Qizhen felt another layer of anger in his heart.

Although he had long known that the emperor's men were domineering, Zhu Qizhen still felt very humiliated by turning a deaf ear to his words in front of him.

At that moment, the anger in his heart reappeared and he said with a cold face.

"Since you can't decide, then go back and ask the emperor, and then come back. I'm tired, so please step back!"

Another eviction order, but this time, Zhu Qizhen's attitude was obviously much tougher.

But it's a pity that Wynn didn't agree with him and just said:

"Your Majesty, please don't embarrass your ministers!"

Even when he said this, the face of the eunuch in charge of Qianqing Palace had an unpredictable solemn look on his face.

Zhu Qizhen felt a little uneasy for no reason, but he still kept his composure on his face and yelled angrily.

"You're so outrageous. Could it be that you still want to break into the palace and rob someone under my nose?"

This was originally a rhetorical question, but after the words fell, Zhu Qizhen was horrified to see that Wynn's face really showed a trace of contemplation, as if he was really considering the feasibility of this matter.

However, what made him relieved was that Wynn finally shook his head and said.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. If you insist on refusing to surrender, how dare your ministers dare to offend you?"

After hearing this, Zhu Qizhen gradually felt relieved and looked at Huai En with disgust. He was too lazy to make excuses anymore and said.

"If that's the case, why don't you get out of here quickly? I told you that I will investigate this matter again. When the investigation is clear, I will give an explanation to the emperor!"

Looking at the Emperor who suddenly became stronger, Wynn still stood there calmly, as if waiting for something.

Just when Zhu Qizhen couldn't hold himself any longer and wanted to drive him away again, a young man wearing armor hurried in outside Chonghua Hall.

This person is none other than the current Nangong Guard Commander and Yulin Guard Commander Meng Jun!

His appearance made Zhu Qizhen frown suddenly and his face became extremely ugly.

I saw this young man walking quickly into the hall, kneeling on one knee and saying:

"Your Majesty, Shu Liang, the admiral of Dongchang, brought 500 pieces of food outside Nangong, claiming that he was following the emperor's order and came to arrest the thieves!"

"What?"

Zhu Qizhen stood up from the throne and looked coldly at Huai En below, as if he finally understood something.

No wonder this humble slave was so fearless from the beginning to the end, but it turned out that he still had such a back-up plan.

As expected, after hearing Meng Jun's words, Wynn's face changed, revealing an expression of exaggerated annoyance that anyone could see, and said.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. The minister has a bad memory and forgot to mention that this case of forging an imperial edict has been handed over to Dongchang and Jinyiwei for trial."

"The ministers have brought people with them today. They are going to be sent to Jinyiwei's imperial prison and handed over to Eunuch Shu for trial."

"You also know that Eunuch Shu is very impatient. Whatever the emperor orders, Eunuch Shu will rush to do it without giving any favor to anyone or delaying any time."

"I think it's because the ministers have been in Nangong for so long and haven't taken the person out yet, which made Eunuch Shu anxious, so he came to ask for the person in person!"

This look, in Zhu Qizhen's eyes, was tantamount to provocation.

At that moment, the anger in his heart surged upwards. The scene in Xuan Mansion was vivid in his mind, and old and new hatreds surged into his heart. At that moment, he said angrily.

"Okay, okay, okay!"

"It's almost the opposite. This Shu Liang is so arrogant. Does he still think this is the Xuan Mansion?"

"Meng Jun, you should take the Yulin guards with you to hold Nangong tightly for me. I want to see if Shu Liang dares to break through the palace gate!"

"Your Majesty, this..."

Hearing this, Meng Jun also hesitated for a while. However, he had just said half a sentence, and when he looked up, he saw the Emperor's eyes that were almost angry. He immediately did not dare to say any more and could only bite the bullet and go ahead and do it.

Seeing this situation, Wynn on the side also cupped his hands and said.

"Since the Supreme Emperor insists on this, the ministers will not dare to offend. I will return to the palace to reply and the ministers will retire."

After saying that, the eunuch in charge of the Qianqing Palace who had been relying on him and refused to leave, actually left so neatly without any hesitation.

Such decisive action surprised Zhu Qizhen. Looking at Wynn's leaving figure, his face suddenly became a little confused.

…………

Outside the South Palace.

Shu Liang, dressed in a flamboyant python robe, stood outside the palace gate, folding his hands in front of him, with an everlasting 'enthusiastic' smile on his face. It seemed that he was not here to arrest people, but rather to meet them. From an old friend.

However, behind him, five hundred Dongchang Fanzi armed with short sticks and full of murderous intent made it clear that the governor of Dongchang was coming with bad intentions!

At the palace gate, the guards on duty remained calm on their faces, but their glances outside from time to time revealed their inner uneasiness.

After a while, Meng Jun and Huai En walked out of Nangong one after another.

Seeing the two people coming out, Shu Liang took two steps forward and greeted them. Originally, Meng Jun thought he was going to say hello, but what made him embarrassed was that Eunuch Shu didn't even look at him and directly greeted him. Wynn, Gongshou Road.

"Eunuch Wynn, how is the situation?"

This indifferent attitude suddenly made Meng Jun's face look a little ugly, but thinking of Shu Liang's reputation, he suppressed it again.

In response to Shu Liang's question, Huaien bowed his hand in return and said with a trace of sadness on his face.

"Our family is incompetent and failed to handle the tasks assigned by the Emperor. I'm afraid I will be punished if I go back this time!"

However, after hearing this, Shu Liang not only did not look disappointed, but a hint of eagerness flashed in his eyes as he continued.

"It doesn't have to be like this. Don't worry, father-in-law, there is nothing the Emperor wants to do that cannot be accomplished. With our family here, no one in the world can disobey the Emperor's decree!"

The tone of these words was categorical. If anyone else had said it, they would have been criticized for overestimating their abilities.

However, in line with Eunuch Shu’s past ‘achievements’, these words only sounded overbearing, not exaggerated.

When Wynn heard this, he raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction of Nangong. Immediately, he cupped his hands and smiled.

"In this case, our family will go back to the palace to reply. By the way, we are waiting for the good news from Eunuch Shu."

"Eunuch Wynn, walk slowly!"

Shu Liang saluted with a smile, and he and Hua En said goodbye to each other until Hua En's figure had left and disappeared, and he turned around and looked at Meng Jun, who had an ugly face.

This time, Eunuch Shu finally put away the usual fake smile on his face and said solemnly.

"I am hereby entrusting you with the order to apprehend a group of people who accompanied the Supreme Emperor on his spring hunting trip, and imprison them for investigation. I would like to ask Commander Meng to make it convenient for you..."
