In the afternoon, Qianqing Palace.

The eunuch Bi Yun led the two little eunuchs into the Yangxin Palace, and he and the two little eunuchs on his hand were holding a large stack of recitals.

"Grandpa Bi!" Several small yellow doors guarding the Heart Cultivation Hall hurriedly stepped forward to salute Bi Yun, who nodded and asked quietly, "Can the emperor be in the imperial study?" ”

After receiving Xiao Huangmen's affirmative reply, Father-in-law Bi cautiously entered the imperial study with two attendants. At this moment, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Hou was standing next to the window, looking out the window, unaware of Bi Yun's arrival.

Bi Yun coughed lightly, then knelt on the ground and saluted and screamed, "The old slave sees the emperor." ”

Zhu Hou slowly turned around, and when he saw the three major notebooks held by Bi Yun and the two little eunuchs, he was immediately upset, and waved his hand: "All the notebooks for impeaching Xu Jin will be thrown into the basket by me, and the others will be put on the imperial case first." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Father-in-law Bi agreed, and without his orders, the two little eunuchs behind him threw all the two stacks of recitals they were holding into the baskets in the corner, and the two baskets next to them were already filled, all of which were "Please behead the Marquis of Jinghai".

Bi Yun didn't throw away the stack of notebooks himself, but put them all on the imperial case, obviously they were sorted before they were sent.

Zhu Hou walked to the side of the imperial case and picked up a copy of the notebook and flipped through it, and couldn't help but look a little gloomy. This recital was written by Wang Shang, deputy envoy of the Guangdong Sea Route, and it mentioned that the Dongsha fleet had been formed and would be stationed in the Dongsha Islands, which was undoubtedly good news.

According to the plan originally discussed by Zhu Hou and Xu Jin, the Ming Dynasty will set up three fleets in the South China Sea, namely the Dongsha Fleet, the Xisha Fleet, and the Nansha Fleet, so that the South China Sea can be firmly controlled, and at the same time, it can echo the Nanyang Protectorate that hangs overseas alone, thus forming a powerful rapid response military system.

After reading the recital of Wang Wang, the deputy envoy of Guangdong Haidao, Zhu Hou took another copy and opened it, and his face cleared a little, this recital was played by the household department of Nanjing, saying that the potatoes that were planted on a trial basis in Nanzhili this year had a bumper harvest, and asked that the scale of planting should continue to be expanded next year.

Zhu Hou read several copies of the recital in a row, all of which were good news, and couldn't help but glance at Bi Yun next to him, and said lightly: "Report good news and not bad news, you old man do you regard me as Qin II?" ”

Bi Yun was so shocked that he knelt on the ground, kowtowed violently and said, "The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave should die, the emperor spares his life!" ”

Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms and became the first emperor of the ages, but the Qin Dynasty was an extremely short-lived dynasty, and the state was only killed by the second emperor. Qin II Hu Hai was a very rigid and murderous guy, and he couldn't listen to the words of the ear, especially he didn't like to hear the word "rebellion", if any official dared to mention in front of him that a certain place and someone had rebelled, he would kill the official. Over time, the officials reported good news but not bad news, so until the rebel army was about to reach Xianyang, Qin II was still living in the peaceful and prosperous world that he had "created", which was really sad and lamentable!

Therefore, Zhu Hou's words are not unimportant, and it is no wonder that Bi Gonggong was scared enough, and people in their sixties knocked their heads loudly, and they became red in an instant.

Only then did Zhu Hou say lightly: "Get up, don't take it as an example!" ”

"Thank you for your kindness!" Bi Yun stood up tremblingly, his underwear already soaked with cold sweat.

In fact, Bi Yun is an honest person, Yang Tinghe also took a fancy to Bi Yun's advantages, which allowed him to sit in the position of the chief eunuch, so he didn't dare to do anything to deceive the emperor when he gave Bi Yun ten dares, and the reason why he chose a few copies of the good news and put them on the top was purely to make the emperor happy, but who knew that the sycophant was actually slapped on the horse's leg.

Zhu Hou learned the lesson of his cousin Zhu Houzhao and strictly forbade eunuchs to interfere in politics, and Bi Yun's behavior undoubtedly touched the red line.

Of course, Zhu Hou also understood that Bi Yun was out of "good intentions" and had no intention of deceiving himself, otherwise he would have ordered someone to kill Bi Yun with a staff to make an example.

After Zhu Hou finished beating the clouds, he continued to look through the notebook, and suddenly saw a case file at the bottom of the stack, so he took it out and opened it to take a look, and his face suddenly sank.

It turned out that this was a joint "verdict" issued by the three legal divisions, which listed Xu Jin's crimes in detail, and the final punishment was beheading, deprivation of official positions, titles and fame, confiscation of family confessions, and exile of his wife and children for 3,000 li.

Zhang Xuan of Dali Temple, Hu Shining, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Jin Xianmin, the capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, all signed and sealed it, and now it will be implemented as long as Emperor Jiajing's approval is approved.

Seeing that the emperor's face instantly became gloomy, Father-in-law Bi didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, he didn't stand there and walk, and he didn't stay!

Just as Bi Yun was tormented in a dilemma, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and then Lu Bing's voice sounded outside the door: "Your Majesty, there is an extremely important matter to report to you." ”

"Come in!" Zhu Hou said with a dark face.

Lu Bing walked into the imperial study quickly, and saw Father-in-law Bi with a red forehead at a glance, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal, knelt down and saluted: "Lu Bing sees the emperor!" ”

"Get up, what's the matter?" Zhu Hou said in a deep voice.

Lu Bing stood up and quickly glanced at the case file spread out on the imperial case, and couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, it seems that he came at the right time!

Lu Bing pretended to be solemn and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yin, the chief soldier of Datong, recently caught a White Lotus thief who tried to infiltrate the Right Jade City, this thief's name is Qiu Fu, and he is a backbone member of the thief's leader Zhao Quan.

Zhang Yin, the commander of Datong, felt that the situation was serious, so he sent someone to escort the thief to the capital and handed him over to the Beizhen Fusi, and now the thief is locked up in the prison of the Beizhen Fusi. ”

Zhu Hou was really interested, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Ah Bing, what is the shocking secret?" ”

Lu Bing took out a piece of paper from his arms and opened it to Zhu Houdao: "Your Majesty, this is the confession of the White Lotus anti-thief Qiu Fu. ”

Zhu Hou took Qiu Fu's confession and looked at it, he couldn't help but change color, stood up and blurted out: "That White Lotus Demon Girl Xue Bingxin is actually the queen of King Anhua?" ”

Lu Bing nodded and said: "According to Qiu Fu's confession, the White Lotus Demon Girl Xue Bingxin was born to King Anhua and a Hu Ji, her real name is Zhu Tingyu, and she also has a half-brother named Zhu Yu, but her brain is a little abnormal, she is an idiot!" ”

Bi Yun glanced at Lu Bing in surprise, the latter was convincing, with a name and a surname, and also mentioned the detailed description of "idiot", which seems to be fake, alas, this time Jinghaihou seems to be really in a catastrophe!
