Although the palace is as deep as the sea, but the movement caused by tonight's accident is indeed bigger, not only the sound of shouting and fighting continues, but also a few fires suddenly rose into the air, which made the people in Guilin City quickly alarmed, not to mention the few yamen near the palace, that is, the houses far away from them, and the people got up one after another to look at the direction of the palace that illuminated half of the night.

After confirming that it was the Jingwang Mansion that had an accident, the officials in several yamen could not sit still, not only the prefect and the officials who were in charge of the city's public security, but also the two high-ranking officials, the political envoy and the governor of Guangxi, all eagerly ran out of the inner house and came straight to the palace accompanied by a group of messengers.

And when they arrived in front of the palace, they saw that the gate was open and there were no guards, and their hearts were even more nervous - when there was a big commotion inside, and after learning that King Jing had been kidnapped by the assassins, these guards who had been guarding outside the palace gate naturally rushed in, and because of the urgency, they did not even close the gate.

Seeing this situation, the officials first looked at each other for a while, and finally, they walked in hard. Since the matter is so serious that the guards have left their posts without permission, they need to go in and see what is going on and help them.

Therefore, when the situation inside was already settled and completely controlled by Yang Zhen, these officials crashed in. Immediately, everyone let out a burst of exclamations, they had seen King Jing who had fallen to the ground and died, which made these officials all stunned, and even many people felt that everything in front of them was just a nightmare, and it didn't seem to be real at all.

It wasn't until Yang Zhen opened his mouth to speak that they were pulled back from shock to reality: "A few adults came just in time, we have something important to discuss with you." General Zhou, first ask a few adults to wait in the side hall in front, and after we finish cleaning up the mess here, we will go and talk to them. At this time, Yang Zhen didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, and immediately gave orders.

Zhou Jiao was stunned at first, but soon came back to his senses, hurriedly stepped forward, and said, "Adults, please come with the last general." "The hand has been drawn forward.

The impact on those officials this time was not small, although King Jing did not have any power in the local area, his status was here after all. Now that he is dead in office, even if it has nothing to do with them, there is no escaping the blame. So at this moment, they also wanted to make things clear, since someone in the palace was talking like this, they couldn't disobey, so they followed Zhou Jiao back to the front, until this time, they hadn't figured out Yang Zhen's true identity.

As for the yamen officers who came with these officials in a hurry, after finding that they were no longer needed, they were invited out by the people of the palace.

Several officials waited in the side hall in front of them with doubts and uneasiness, and this waited for almost an hour, until it was almost dawn, but no one came to greet them.

"Your Excellency, look at this...... Should we ask, it's not a good idea to just wait here. Finally, Fu Chuan, the prefect of Guilin, couldn't sit still, and asked Tang Guangchen, the highest-ranking governor of Guangxi.

As soon as he spoke, the eyes of the other officials also fell on Governor Tang, just waiting for him to make an idea.

Governor Tang was a thin old man in his fifties, and a scarlet official robe looked empty on him, and when he was asked like this at this moment, he felt more pressure on his body, and couldn't help but bend down.

To be honest, he is not satisfied with his current position, although the governor of Guangxi is also a feudal official, but his power here is really not comparable to that of governors elsewhere. Everyone knows that the foreign Tusi here in Guangxi is extremely powerful, but it is not something that he can suppress as a governor. Therefore, after several failures, he has no hope for his career, and only thinks that he can finish his term in peace, and then return to his hometown with the court.

But the sky does not obey people's wishes, but recently there has been a turmoil in the city of Guilin, and now even King Jing is ...... Thinking of the hidden things behind this, Tang Guangchen dared to feel a chill in his back.

After a while, he slowly spoke: "Wait a little longer." After all, there is such a big event in the palace, they must always have some arrangements. ”

Just as several officials reluctantly said yes, the sharp-eyed government official Xia Tui suddenly pointed to the white sky outside and exclaimed, "That's ......."

When everyone heard the sound, they looked up and saw a few gray pigeons flying higher and higher, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight. In this regard, everyone felt a little confused, and they didn't know who the palace was going to deliver the news to, but they also obviously felt a deeper uneasiness.

After a long while, they saw that the person who had given the order just now had rushed over with several important people from the palace, such as Shi Bailiang and Zhou Jiao, the head of the palace. At this moment, these officials unconsciously muttered in their hearts, who is this guy, how can he be the master in the palace?

Soon, they knew the answer. Yang Zhen did not conceal his identity, and after seeing the ceremony, he reported his name and official position, and then bowed his hand to them very politely: "I hope you adults don't be surprised, in that case, the official has to be disrespectful for the time being." ”

"It's easy to say...... it's easy to say," several officials said, but there were quite a few waves in their hearts.

They already knew everything before, and they knew that it was the arrival of Yang Zhen, the brocade guard, that caused such a big disturbance in the city. The day before yesterday, when they talked to the people in the palace about their own difficulties, they also vaguely mentioned whether they could invite Yang Zhen, the initiator, out of Guilin.

I thought that the palace should agree to this request, but unexpectedly, this Yang Yanshi not only did not leave the palace, but actually started as a family here. This made the officials temporarily unsure of how to speak and respond, and could only smile and bow their hands politely.

Yang Zhen could naturally see that everyone was alienated from him, but he didn't care. He didn't want their friendship, but their obedience. So after a little greeting, I went straight to the point: "Your Excellency must be very anxious and strange now. Today's matter is also very simple, there are people in the city with ulterior motives who know that King Jing has contacted several adults to deal with them together, and took many of them, so he sent assassins to come late at night. The whole palace was unprepared, and they succeeded. However, all of the Assassins were eventually killed and captured! ”

After hearing what he said, the officials were even more frightened, and then their eyes fell on Bai Liang's body: "Is this true? Obviously, compared to Yang Zhen, they believe in Bai Changshi more.

Bai Rail's face was full of despair, no matter how this matter ended, his guilt was not small. Therefore, after coming here, he did not speak until they asked him, and he had to reply with a bitter face: "What Lord Yang said is true, those assassins have confessed, they are the traitors of the White Lotus Sect!" By the end, his face was a little distorted, full of resentment.

As soon as they heard that this was really the case, and that it had something to do with the White Lotus Sect, these officials were dumbfounded again, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time. This time, the matter is really a big trouble, since they even dare to break into the Jingwang Mansion, and even the dignified prince of the court dares to stab, what else can they not do?

Seeing this, Yang Zhen was sure in his heart, and took the opportunity to say: "I have already learned from other sources that the Tusi here has colluded with the White Lotus Sect traitors, so I rushed to Guilin to warn me, thinking of eliminating this catastrophe before they get into trouble." And for now, they may have started in the next few days. Ladies and gentlemen, for the sake of the people of Guilin and Guangxi, and for the long-term peace and stability of the imperial court, we have no choice but to take action. As he spoke, his gaze slowly swept over the faces of several officials, putting more pressure on them.

"This ...... Although Yang Yan's words are clear, after all, the matter is big. And it involves the local toast, and our government is not easy to start. You should also know, just before we took some restless Miao Zhuang people in the city, they have already made trouble in the yamen, if we go to arrest them again, I am afraid that ......"

"What I want is this result, that is, that they openly resist, even rebel!" At this time, Yang Zhen had nothing to hide, and gave his thoughts bluntly.

"Ah...... You...... No, this is definitely not possible! Suddenly, Governor Tang Guangchen shook his head like a rattle, asking him to force those toasts and foreigners to rebel, which he would never agree. The reaction of the other officials was also average, shaking their heads vigorously, unable to even speak, in order to make their position clear.

Their reaction was already expected by Yang Zhen, and it was precisely because of the appeasement and timidity of these officials that it led to the current erosive situation in Guangxi, and even in the entire southwest of the Ming Dynasty. Now if he wants to change all this, he has to start with them!

After sweeping their faces again, Yang Zhen's expression gradually cooled: "I know what the adults are thinking and worrying about. Are you afraid that once those Miao Zhuang people make a rebellion under the leadership of Tusi, the court will put all the blame on you, right? Moreover, you still feel that with this strength inside and outside Guilin City now, it is impossible to suppress so many foreign people from rising up. I'm right, right? ”

Several officials glanced at each other, but did not answer, but apparently they acquiesced.

A mocking smile came from the corner of Yang Zhen's mouth: "Ladies and gentlemen, who are you officials for?" Is it for the court, for the people, or just for yourselves? At this time, all you are thinking about is whether you will be responsible for this, thinking about your own safety, I'm afraid I don't need to say more about this answer, right? ”

After only one pause, a hint of sharpness flashed in Yang Zhen's eyes: "But what I want to tell you is that even if you want to stay out of this matter, it will be impossible!" Not to mention those thieves in this city, just the imperial court, as long as you don't do something, you will not be able to eat and walk around! ”
