"Your Majesty, I hope that your Majesty will severely punish the King of Han..."

"Your Majesty, the King of Han has a violent personality. It will be difficult for you to calm down the courtiers without severe punishment..."

"His Majesty...."

In the imperial study room, all the ministers burst into tears and "vindicated" Zhou Hongwen.

Most of the people present were Confucian officials, and Zhou Hongwen was still a first-rank official. How could he die just because he wanted to?

Everyone made impassioned speeches, but none of them mentioned Zhou Hongwen's precondition for insulting the King of Han.

Although it is said that if the king wants his ministers to die, they must die, but the real situation is what it is now, and it is difficult for everyone to unite to shake it.

The imperial study room was overcrowded, but Guo Tianyi stood at the front without saying a word.

"Asshole!"

"King Han, you are so brave."

"How can I convince the public if I don't punish you severely today?"

Emperor Fengjing stood up and shouted angrily, "I will punish you by being shut up for ten days, and your salary will be halved!"

???

???

The ministers who were originally huddled together to keep warm and secretly rejoiced when they heard this "heavy punishment", their expressions were extremely exciting.

"My son, I accept the order and thank you."

When Guo Tianyi saw Ji Hong's voice speaking, he suppressed a smile.

"You still won't back down?"

"Stay here and let me treat you to dinner?"

Emperor Feng Jing's eyes were like torches, he scanned everyone and said coldly.

"I'll take my leave..."

All the ministers lowered their heads, extremely unhappy.

Isn’t this playing tricks on us?

Are there such "heavy penalties"?

But the emperor's golden words, His Majesty has already said that no one dares to speak out again.

"Bad boy."

"Did you know that you cured my heart disease?"

After the officials retreated, Emperor Fengjing looked at Guo Tianyi and said.

"Father, why do you say this?"

"Look at this."

Emperor Fengjing took out a bamboo slip from the dragon table and threw it to Guo Tianyi.

Seeing this, Guo Tianyi quickly stepped forward to watch.

"In the third year of Yuande, Zhou Hongwen was responsible for disaster relief on the Southwest Road and embezzled 8.2 million taels of silver..."

"In the fifth year of Yuande, Zhou Hongwen allowed his servants to commit crimes, framed the Wang family in the capital, and took away the only daughter of the Wang family..."

"In the eighth year of Yuande, Zhou Hongwen received 130,000 taels of gold, silver and jewels from the Shanxi Province Defense Department..."

"The tenth year of Yuande..."

"The twelfth year of Yuande..."

"The fifteenth year of Yuande..."

"Hiss~"

Guo Tianyi's scalp felt numb when he saw it.

My father, it seems, his eyes are everywhere?

Are you afraid that you even know what you are doing in Chengde Palace?

Thinking of this, Guo Tianyi broke into a cold sweat.

"This is information from Shadow Guard's investigation."

"There is a lot more information like this."

"Zhou Hongwen is a member of Confucianism. Nowadays, Confucianism is very powerful and its forces are intertwined. Do you understand?"

Emperor Feng Jing looked at Guo Tianyi and said calmly, "Now, do you still have the confidence to take charge? In addition to the vassal king and foreign bandits, the relatives in the court are also like wolves and tigers. My prince, do you know the dangers involved?"

As long as you are here, everything will be fine.

Once he is gone, he is really afraid that Guo Tianyi will not be able to bear it.

"Father, Holy Ming!"

"I know that Confucianism is powerful, Prime Minister Yan Xiliang is stuck in his ways, Legalism is small, and only Confucianism controls a lot of resources."

"Today's students are more likely to be descendants of the Confucian lineage."

"Although it is said that literati do not use swords to kill people."

"My son, I should have a clever plan to deal with it."

Hearing this, Emperor Feng Jing waved his hands and said, "You brat, go down and prepare yourself for the Wu mission in the past few days. I think this matter is not easy."

"correct."

"I am planning to confiscate Zhou Hongwen's property, and I will give you a share of the credit for this."

"Lest you say that I deducted your pocket money."

"Thank you, Father."

Guo Tianyi felt warm in his heart and retreated.

But he didn't know.

What a reaction he aroused in the palace at this time.

"snort!"

"This trash is really cheap."

"Didn't this kill him?"

King Wei squinted his eyes and immediately ordered the young eunuch beside him, "I will closely monitor the movements of Chengde Palace and report any disturbance immediately."

After that, King Wei came to the Queen Mother's palace again.

I originally wanted to read a copy in front of the Queen Mother.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother came directly and said, "It's just that a Confucian petty official died. Your Majesty, grandson, you have to deal with the Wu envoy. This is the key point..."

At this time, King Wei felt extremely uncomfortable.

The imperial grandmother liked him the most.

Don't you want to speak for him now?

Therefore, King Wei became more and more fearful of Guo Tianyi, and even prepared many poisonous schemes.

There was also a noble lady who hurriedly came to Chengde Palace.

She is Guo Tianyi's mother-in-law.

But Guo Tianyi had been placed in solitary confinement, and Concubine Rong could only give up and return.

Although he hasn't seen his son yet, his heart is filled with joy.

Her son seemed to have stood up, and Concubine Rong knew very well what His Majesty's "punishment" of Guo Tianyi in this way meant.

In the blink of an eye, it was three days later.

The envoy from the State of Wu arrived in Dafeng Kyoto in great force.

The entire Jinluan Palace fell into a state of gloom and gloom.

Outside Chengde Palace.

"Committing crimes to the end of the sea and gathering five thousand years of majesty!"

"Did you hear that?"

"This is the first round of the literary competition for the Wu State Mission. Your Majesty has a decree. Who can reward you with tens of thousands of gold for this!"

"Damn it, it's real or fake, can't those Confucian big guys in the Hanlin Academy forgive me?"

"Isn't it..."

The two young eunuchs each showed excited eyes and were discussing the matter.
