On the northern outskirts of the city, there is a barren mountain.
A ghostly figure is constantly climbing over, using various branches to hide its figure, and quietly walking towards the mountain peak.
When the figure reached halfway up the mountain, the figure suddenly moved and disappeared strangely.
About a moment later, in the tunnel under the barren mountain, this figure kept moving forward and came to a brightly lit palace.
Thumb-sized luminous pearls are placed on the surrounding rock walls, emitting light and illuminating the underground palace.
The palace floor is paved with pure white cobblestones, extending all the way into the main hall.
The style of the palace is extremely elegant, with red pillars, white walls, and complex carvings, all showing luxury.
At this moment, if anyone in the palace sees this palace, they will definitely exclaim, because the style of this palace is exactly the same as the Hanbing Palace where Concubine Wan Gui lives?
The figure stopped at the entrance of the palace and did not enter rashly.
After a moment, a cold and majestic female voice came out.
"What happened?"
After hearing the voice, the figure bowed and saluted, and said: "Master, Emperor Tianqi kidnapped a woman on the street, and urgently summoned Zhu Wuwu into the palace. I'm afraid someone wants to do something while you are away."
"oh?"
"Such a thing actually happened?"
"Has that woman's identity been found?"
Hearing this, Ting Feng Yu reported back: "Master, the identity of that woman is still under investigation, but when the woman entered the capital, my people had seen him and two men on Qingyun Path."
"And one of them is none other than Li Gexiao, the commanding officer of Jinyi Weinan Town Fusi."
Concubine Wan Gui, who was deep in the palace, said with twinkling eyes:
"Li Gexiao?"
"Check it out, keep an eye on him and Zheng Dongliu, keep an eye on the rumors in the court, and find out the woman's identity as soon as possible, go ahead!"
"Yes." After hearing Feng Yu bow slightly, he turned and left.
…
Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.
"Your Majesty, Zhu Wuwu, has met your Majesty!" Zhu Wuwu bowed slightly and said in a deep voice.
Emperor Tianqi turned his back to Zhu Wuwu and looked at the territory map of the Ming Dynasty. He seemed to be thinking about something and did not respond.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Wulan's expression remained unchanged and he continued to salute without making a move.
After more than ten minutes, Emperor Tianqi broke away from his thinking state, turned around, as if he had just discovered Zhu Wuwu, and said: "Shenhou, you are welcome, you and I are brothers, there is no need to be polite."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhu Wulan straightened up and lowered his head slightly, waiting for Emperor Tianqi's instructions.
Emperor Tianqi saw Zhu Wuyi's behavior and slowly said: "The Shenhou is my brother, and he is also the minister of Tuogu appointed by the late emperor. He holds the Shangfang sword, the alchemy book and the iron coupon. He has the right to do things expediently. Folk jokes say,
Lord Shen, you can kill the faint king at the top and the slanderous ministers at the bottom."
"Your Majesty is joking, don't believe what people say." Zhu ignored his expression and said calmly.
"It's true that you can't believe everything that people say, but there are some words that you have to believe. In recent days, I have heard some other voices saying that the prince of the gods is more qualified to inherit the throne than me?"
"I wonder if it's true or not?"
Emperor Tianqi stood with his hands behind his hands, staring at Zhu Wuwu indifferently, his eyes full of coldness.
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Wuwu quickly raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, these are heart-breaking words. I have always been loyal and loyal to the Ming Dynasty royal family. When the Dragon Protection Villa was first established, it was to protect your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty royal family.
Safety, I always keep it in my heart and I dare not forget it."
"Hopefully, Your Majesty will learn from it!"
Emperor Tianqi looked at Zhu Wuwu, his tone softened a little, and said: "I am naturally willing to believe in the loyalty of the Lord Shen, but some things that have happened in recent days have made me have a different perspective."
"The secret agent of Ouchi, the imperial guard with a sword in front of him - Guihai Yishang. A few days ago, he made a big fuss in the Shaolin Temple and killed the Shaolin monk Gong Kong. It caused a sensation in the world. Not only the people talked about it, but also the memorial in the court.
They are all piled up on my desk!"
At this point, Emperor Tianqi seemed to be angry and overturned the memorial on the desk.
The memorial fell to the ground with clatter, and all the eunuchs and maids knelt down, not daring to say a word.
Even Emperor Tianqi's most favored Eunuch Sun was kneeling on the ground, not daring to step forward to handle the memorial that fell on the ground.
"Marquis Shen, you seem to have said that you would give Duan Tianya full authority to handle this matter. If there are any mistakes, you are willing to bear them. Do you still remember?"
Zhu Wuli didn't argue, and said directly: "I remember, this matter is indeed my omission, and I am willing to take responsibility!"
"Your Majesty's laxness in handling this has led to a great disaster. Please deal with it, Your Majesty!"
"Okay, in that case, let's ask Shenhou to go to the Zongren Mansion." Emperor Tianqi waved his hand, and two missing guards walked in.
"Marquis Shen, I'm offended."
The two guards whispered a confession, took out the torture tools, locked Zhu Wuwu's pipa bone, interrupted the internal power in his body, and escorted him out.
After Zhu Wuli left, Emperor Tianqi suddenly said: "Two palace elders, it's okay. Thank you for your hard work."
As Emperor Tianqi finished speaking, two figures walked out from behind the screen.
The two of them bowed and said, "Your Majesty, then we are leaving."
"Master, please do as you please."
The two men moved and disappeared without a trace. Not even the guards outside the door were alerted. They looked like ghosts and were extremely terrifying.
These two people are none other than Zhang Shou and Huang Dao, the two great masters of the Enshrinement Hall.
Since Emperor Tianqi decided to take down Zhu Wuwu, he must have been fully prepared. Even if Zhu Wuwu jumped over the wall in a hurry, he would have backup plans to deal with it.
"Come here, let Cao Zhengchun come to see me!"
Emperor Tianqi suddenly thought of something and ordered in a cold voice.
"yes!"
About a stick of incense later, Cao Zhengchun hurried over and walked into the imperial study.
"Cao Zhengchun, I have met His Majesty."
Cao Zhengchun saluted respectfully.
"Cao Zhengchun, the Shenhou was just taken to the clan's mansion." Emperor Tianqi looked at Cao Zhengchun and said.
As soon as these words came out, Cao Zhengchun's face changed slightly, and he quickly calmed down and said, "Is there anything I can do for Your Majesty, my servant?"
"I suspect that the Lord Shen is colluding with other forces in an attempt to rebel. I order you to assist the clan government in investigating this matter and come up with a result as soon as possible."
"Also, the matter of Gui Hai Yi Dao should be resolved as soon as possible. I don't want to see the memorials from various ministries anymore."
Emperor Tianqi threw the few remaining memorials on the desk in front of Cao Zhengchun and ordered in a cold voice.
"Yes, I will definitely take care of it." Cao Zhengchun saluted.
"The Shenhou is a relative of the emperor and my younger brother. He cannot stay in the clan's mansion forever. I will only give you five days. If there is no result within five days, I will ask you!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Cao Cao.
Zhengchun, with an expressionless face, ordered.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely produce the results within five days." Cao Zhengchun continued to promise.
"Go ahead."
Emperor Tianqi waved his hand, indicating that Cao Zhengchun could leave.
Cao Zhengchun bowed respectfully, turned around and left quickly.
Emperor Tianqi looked at the map of the Ming Dynasty not far away, his eyes flickering, thoughtfully.
Cao Zhengchun's face remained unchanged after leaving the imperial study, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes. He thought to himself: It took no effort to break through the iron shoes and find no place. Zhu Zhu, you have finally fallen into our hands.
Already...
The military symbols of the ten generals belong to our family!
