Chapter 160 Old Fox Biao's Acting Skills 【Seeking Monthly Pass】
Chu Yi stretched out his hand and said, "There is no need for the eunuch Wu to be polite. The eunuch will not serve your majesty with the chief officer of the valley. It's late at night. Could it be that your majesty has some decree?"
Wu Tong stood up and glanced at Huang Huai and the others. As a close servant of Zhu Houzhao, Wu Tong was naturally familiar with Huang Huai and other important ministers in the court. He said to Chu Yi: "General Manager, Your Majesty heard that Huang Huai, the Minister of War,
Huang Kui, the right commander of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, and others were furious because they mobilized troops and horses without authorization. They personally ordered the governor to raid the homes of Huang Huai and others, and all the nine tribes were put in prison to await their fate!"
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows. Zhu Houzhao should be asleep at this time. Even if the news about Dongchang, Jinyiwei and Xichang entering the palace, they should wait until dawn.
Nodding slightly, Chu Yi smiled at Wu Tong and said, "Superintendent Wu, isn't your Majesty asleep yet?"
Wu Tong smiled and said: "Your Majesty was already asleep, but not long ago, the chief minister, Mr. Yang, had urgent matters and asked to see your Majesty, so your Majesty was awakened."
Chu Yi was surprised and said: "Chief Assistant Yang Tinghe? Why does he want to see your majesty?"
As he spoke, Chu Yi couldn't help but look at Huang Huai, Ma Yunzhang, Feng An, and Bai Bing. As expected, Huang Huai and the others were lifted up.
Although Huang Huai and the others did not speak, Chu Yi could roughly guess whether they believed that Yang Tinghe went to see the emperor most likely to plead for them.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Chu Yi's mouth. Yang Tinghe was definitely an old fox. If Yang Tinghe came to add insult to injury, Chu Yi would believe it. But if Yang Tinghe would intercede for Huang Huai and the others, it would be strange for Chu Yi to believe it.
As expected, Wu Tongtong said: "Yang Ge always asked to see your majesty, but he reported to your majesty that Huang Huai, Huang Kui and others secretly mobilized troops to surround and kill the general manager. Your majesty was furious when he heard this. Originally, Yang Ge always persuaded your majesty to kill Huang."
The Huai and other three tribes, but His Majesty was so angry that he personally ordered the execution of the Huang, Huai and other nine tribes!"
"Ah, Yang Tinghe, you old thief..."
Huang Huai's face showed a look of despair, and he couldn't help but curse angrily.
As for Feng An, his face was pale, and the last glimmer of hope was shattered. Feng An laughed as if he was losing his mind.
Bai Bing and Ma Yunzhang simply fainted, showing their ugly appearance, without the manners of a court official.
Watching Wu Tong leave, Chu Yi couldn't help but said to Huang Huai: "Master Huang, it seems that you have disappointed Mrs. Yang Ge!"
Huang Huai couldn't help being startled, staring at Chu Yi and saying: "You...what do you mean!"
Chu Yi smiled and said: "What do you mean by this governor?"
Huang Huai gritted his teeth and looked at Chu Yi and said: "Manager Chu, I am willing to testify against Yang Tinghe. It is him. Everything is his. He is the real mastermind behind the scenes..."
I thought Chu Yi would be very excited and let him go, but what disappointed Huang Huai was that Chu Yi looked at him calmly, without any hint of joy, but looked at him like an idiot.
he.
Chu Yi sighed softly: "You don't even have this overall view. No wonder you are regarded as an outcast. Yang Ting and he can choose to betray your whereabouts to the emperor. That's because he has seen through that you can't succeed at all. Do you think he will predict it?"
Didn't you think you would testify against him?"
With a look of astonishment on Huang Huai's face, Chu Yi continued: "Do you have any witnesses or physical evidence? Don't you think His Majesty doesn't know that Yang Tinghe is involved in all of this? Liu Jin died and Li Dongyang retired.
, the court was in turmoil, and among the hundreds of officials, only Yang Tinghe was the most suitable and able to stabilize the court. Even if His Majesty was dissatisfied with him, he still chose him as the chief minister of the cabinet, because no one can replace him at the moment.
Role in the DPRK.”
Huang Huai was slumped and said with a look of astonishment: "So that's it, that's it, we are just an abandoned son, an abandoned son!"
After giving Huang Huai a pitiful look, Chu Yi walked directly into Huang Huai's mansion.
The major case that Huang Huai, Ma Yunzhang, Feng An, Bai Bing, and Huang Kui were convicted of treason by the emperor finally came to an end with the arrest of five people and nine clans, and the confiscation of their property.
Many people in the capital did not sleep well that night. Huang Huai and others' homes were ransacked. Especially Chu Yi was ordered to arrest five people from nine tribes. Tiqi came out in all directions. The whole capital could hear that people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei were arresting people everywhere.
movement.
It lasted until daybreak. Even so, you could still see the imperial guards on the long street, the Dongchang fans coming and going, and the relatives of the prisoners who were crying and wailing were arrested from various places.
And the emperor was furious. After the Jinyiwei directly verified the identities of the Huanghuai people, they started to arrest people everywhere according to their genealogy of the nine clans.
Even though many of the relatives of the nine clans are not in the capital, with Jin Yiwei's spies and strongholds all over the world, as long as there is a roster, it is really not a problem to get people.
Of course, this is not something that can be accomplished in a short time. It may take at least ten days and a half to arrest all the people from the nine clans.
It was daybreak, Chu Yi washed his face and went to the Leopard Room.
If nothing unexpected happened, Chu Yi believed that Zhu Houzhao must not have rested for half the night.
Sure enough, when Chu Yi arrived at the Leopard Room, Gu Dayong who was guarding outside couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he saw Chu Yi coming. He quickly stepped forward and said to Chu Yi: "Brother Chu Yi, you are finally here, Your Majesty.
We have been waiting for your safe return, our family has tried to persuade you several times, but His Majesty did not listen."
Chu Yi nodded towards Gu Dayong and said: "Manager Gu is really interested. We also invite him to come with us so that we can persuade His Majesty to go and have a rest."
Gu Dayong smiled and said: "I believe that your Majesty will feel at ease as long as you see Brother Chu Yi that you are safe and sound."
While talking, Gu Dayong and Chu Yi entered the main hall. From a distance, Chu Yi saw Zhu Houzhao sitting at the desk, looking like he was practicing calligraphy.
You must know that with Zhu Houzhao's temperament, it is really not that easy to get him to calm down and practice calligraphy. So when he saw Zhu Houzhao suppressing his temper and practicing calligraphy, Chu Yi could see that Zhu Houzhao was not so worried in his heart.
calm.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but raise his head and look at a few people. When he saw Chu Yi striding towards him, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but his eyes lit up and his heart dropped. He put down the brush in his hand and looked at Chu Yi with a smile.
Yi and Gu Dayong are two people.
"Chu Daban, seeing that you are safe and sound makes me feel relieved!"
Chu Yi saluted Zhu Houzhao with a grateful expression on his face and said: "This servant is so cared for by Your Majesty, and I feel frightened in my heart. Please put your Majesty's body first and don't hurt it."
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said: "It must be Gu Daban and you who said something nonsense. I'm not that careless. It's just that I haven't rested for half the night. But Chu Daban and you, this night must be thrilling."
As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao pulled Chu Yi and said, "Chu Daban, tell me quickly what's going on."
Chu Yi nodded slightly and said to Gu Dayong: "Brother Gu, inform the imperial kitchen to prepare breakfast for your majesty!"
Gu Dayong said: "Breakfast has been prepared long ago, but His Majesty insists on waiting for you to come before starting the meal!"
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "Gu Daban, please inform the imperial dining room to deliver the meal. You go next door to invite Mr. Yang Ge. Today I will have a banquet with Mr. Yang Ge."
Chu Yi had already learned about Yang Tinghe from Wu Tong, but he did not expect that Yang Tinghe would be left in the leopard room by Zhu Houzhao.
Looking at Zhu Houzhao, Chu Yi understood that this was Zhu Houzhao's intention. Yang Tinghe had a great influence on the civil and military affairs of the court. If Yang Tinghe secretly contacted the civil and military officials when he captured Huang Huai and other family members, he might be given
He brings a lot of trouble.
Zhu Houzhao kept Yang Tinghe here clearly to eliminate the negative influence that Yang Tinghe might have on him.
Zhu Houzhao seemed to notice Chu Yi's expression and couldn't help but blinked at Chu Yi, as if I did a great job.
Chu Yi secretly sighed in his heart. After all, Zhu Houzhao was only in his twenties. If he was not an emperor but came from a wealthy family, he might have lived a very free and easy life.
There was a sound of footsteps. Chu Yi heard the sound and went to see a figure walking from the side hall with Gu Dayong. Isn't it the number one person in the court, Yang Tinghe, the chief minister of the cabinet?
Seeing Yang Tinghe, Chu Yi stepped forward with a smile and cupped his hands at Yang Tinghe and said, "I have met Mr. Chief Assistant."
Yang Tinghe hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "Tinghe has met the steward. He didn't rest all night and was still in such good spirits. I really envy him."
Chu Yi said with a smile: "The chief minister should always be strong and take care of national affairs. This is what Chu Yi should learn from."
While the two were greeting each other, a young eunuch had already arranged the meals neatly, and Zhu Houzhao was heard saying to Chu Yi and Yang Tinghe: "Chu Daban, Yang Qing's family, will accompany me to eat here today."
It is an honor to be able to dine with the Emperor. Unless he is a favored minister of the Emperor, few people will be treated like this.
Yang Tinghe and Chu Yi thanked each other quickly, and they each sat down. The table was full of royal meals that were both delicious and delicious, with almost a dozen dishes. There were more or less dishes, but Zhu Houzhao specially ordered a few more dishes.
On ordinary days, Zhu Houzhao would never allow the imperial kitchen to prepare so many meals.
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "I specially ordered someone to add a few Sichuan dishes. If I remember correctly, the Qing family is from Chengdu, Sichuan. You might as well try it. This Sichuan food is quite suitable for the Qing family's taste!"
Yang Tinghe suddenly looked inexplicably moved and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Old minister, I am so loved by your majesty. I am so grateful that I shed tears of gratitude."
As he spoke, Yang Tinghe wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Chu will laugh!"
When Chu Yi saw Yang Tinghe's natural reaction, he couldn't help but sigh, this is an old fox with superb acting skills like a movie king. Those who don't know it really think that Yang Tinghe is loyal and loyal to Zhu Houzhao.
I really didn't fall asleep, it's true, here comes the late fourth update, please vote for me and give me a reward.
