Even though Yang Hui and Wang Cun and his two officials have been ups and downs in the officialdom for many years, they still feel hot and ashamed when facing the loud scolding of Emperor Zhao Xu.

At this time, it is meaningless to argue whether there is any attack, slander, or frame these things, and it is a joke!

Seeing that the two of them couldn't speak, Zhao Xu suppressed his anger and said lightly: "Write a letter to his family and surrender to the Ministry of Justice."

Wang Cun's expression moved, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

His Majesty the Emperor made his attitude clear in front of them, and their destructive things were all in the eyes of His Majesty, so he really didn't have the courage to say anything else.

Zhao Xu stared at the two of them and said, "Why, do you still want to ask for instructions?"

Wang Cun's face changed rapidly, and he knelt on the ground with a thud, and his body shivered violently.

Yang Hui didn't know that there was someone behind Wang Cun, and he didn't know who it was. He just thought that Wang Cun was against the reform. Seeing the official's explanation, he was shocked and suddenly knelt down, sweating on his head, and he didn't dare to breathe.

He was not a fool or a novice who had just entered the officialdom. He thought of it in a flash.

Zhao Si stood beside Zhao Xu, and saw Zhao Xu scaring the two grandmasters to kneel down to the ground and trembled, with admiration on his face.

Zhao Xu stared at the two of them for a while, then glanced at Zhao Si beside him, and said, "Thirteenth brother, look at the two of them, let them write a list, and then take them to the Ministry of Justice."

Zhao Si quickly raised his hand and said in a decent manner: "Abide by the order."

Zhao Xu did not look at Wang Cun, Yang Hui and the others, turned around and went out, and led a large group of imperial guards to the next place.

Wang Cun knelt on the ground, his old face turned snow-white.

If you just form a party to attack, frame court officials, and oppose the new law, you may be saved, but if you are involved in the struggle for power in the throne, you will definitely be alive!

Yang Hui felt very hatred, and finally understood how today's formation would be so big. Even the official family brought the guards to his mansion in person. It turned out that Wang Cun was involved in the battle against imperial power!

‘Damn it!’ Yang Hui was so angry that he wanted to pounce over and bite Wang Cun to death.

If this is pursued, their Yang family will be able to confiscate the family and destroy the clan!

Zhao Si had a stern face, held the knife, looked at the guard left by Zhao Xu behind him, turned to the two kneeling people, and said in a tender and firm voice: "Come on, give them the four treasures of the study and let them write."

There is an imperial guard to respond and go find it quickly.

Wang Cun knelt on the ground, struggling on his pale face, not knowing whether he should write it.

If he didn't write, His Majesty the Emperor obviously knew it, he would definitely not let it go easily.

Yang Hui knelt on the ground, his face turned gloomy, and he glanced at Wang Cun with a fierce look.

Wang Cun was cold in his heart, but in the end he was unable to overcome his fear. He picked up the pen tremblingly and lay on the ground and wrote it in strokes.

Zhao Si looked at her, her little face couldn't help but be happy, holding the sword in her right hand, and her body became more and more straight.

Zhao Xu left Yang's mansion, rode a carriage across Yu Street, passed by Fanlou, and stopped in front of the gate of Meng's mansion.

At this time, the Meng Mansion was surrounded by the imperial guards, with the gates open, and the imperial guards were three steps, one post, five steps, and one whistle.

Zhao Xu got off the carriage, glanced at it, and walked straight inside.

Chen Pi followed along, secretly awe-inspiringly. He didn't know about these arrangements before!

He was secretly alert, and at the same time he looked towards the direction of the Mengfu main hall and frowned slightly.

This is Meng's mansion, Meng Meiren's mother's home. Now she lives is her grandfather Meng Yuan, who once led his troops to confront Zhao Xu under Xuande's sect.

Chen Pi quietly glanced at Zhao Xu's side face, wondering what he would do.

Meiren Meng was already the queen recognized by the Empress Dowager, but no ceremony was held.

If Meng Yuan is dealt with, what should Meiren Meng or Empress Meng do?

Chen Pi didn't dare to think too much, and the crowd followed Zhao Xu to the main hall of Meng Mansion. Meng Yuan stood under the steps, raised his hand and saluted, saying, "Men Meng Yuan, please see the official family."

Meng Yuan was very old, with dark horns, thin eyes, and no expression was visible.

Zhao Xu looked at him for a moment and said, "Let's sit inside."

Meng Yuan had no expression and let Zhao Xu go sideways and follows him.

The two of them sat down in the hall. After the servants served tea, they were all Zhao Xu, Meng Yuan, Chenpi and several imperial guards left.

Meng Yuan had no expression on his face and was thin, but he had a sense of momentum while sitting upright.

Zhao Xu did not drink tea or go around the corner. He was sitting outside the door and said with a squint: "In terms of relationships, Meiren Meng is my queen, and I have to call you a big father in the common people. In terms of principles, I am the king and you are a minister. You should consider your granddaughter and consider the long-term of the Meng family. If you are not good, there are four words "Great rebellion". I have given you opportunities again and again, but I really don't understand why you have to go all the way to the dark?"

Meng Yuan was also facing the door, with a look of indifference for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, there are some things that cannot be controlled."

Zhao Xu understood that Meng Yuan had no way back, so he said, "I will not make things difficult for Meiren Meng, nor will I depose her. She will be officially enthroned as the queen next year. Meng Tang is my brother-in-law. If he is talented, I will treat him like ordinary people."

Meng Yuan's heart was shocked and it was difficult to keep calm. Zhao Xu's words meant that he was involved only, and he would not kill the company, and he would protect the Meng family!

Meng Yuan's face twitched for a while, but he still stood up and said, "I thank Your Majesty!"

Zhao Xu glanced at him, stood up straight away from Meng's mansion.

Meng Yuan knelt on the ground, without saying a word, and did not move until Zhao Xu left the main hall.

After Zhao Xu got on the carriage, Chen Pi couldn't help asking: "Official family, have you just left like this?"

Zhao Xu looked calm and said, "He can hold on in this way. He is the greatest loyal minister in the ages."

Chen Pi couldn't guess Zhao Xu's intentions and dared not ask too much, and said, "Official family, where are you going now?"

Zhao Xu sat in the carriage, thinking expressionlessly, and after a moment, he said, "It's almost the same outside the palace, it's time for the palace... Go back, walk slowly, give them some time."

Chenpi became more and more confused, and didn't know who they mean.

However, the carriage slowed down. Under the escort of a group of guards, Zhao Xu's carriage drove slowly.

In Kaifeng City, patrolling guards were everywhere, and pedestrians on the street were almost invisible. But many people looked at Zhao Xu's team through the windows and cracks, with a serious expression and whispering.

Not long after he walked, a guard suddenly caught up and handed a letter to the carriage, saying: "The official family, written by the Marquis of Meng Yu."

Meng Yuhou is Meng Yuan.

Zhao Xu reached out to take it, took out the paper inside and looked at it, and saw that it was a personal name with the pen and ink. Most of it was from the imperial guards, both inside and outside the city, including the military commanded by Chu You, the military commander of Hu Wei, and even the imperial guards in the palace that he had been cleansed several times!

Zhao Xu said intimately, saying goodbye to himself: Zhuge is only cautious in his life, but fortunately I am cautious, otherwise I really don’t know when the ship capsizes in the gutter.

Zhao Xu looked at the list for a long time, put it in his arms, and said, "Where are others?"

The guard raised his hand and said, "Die, no, commit suicide."

Zhao Xu raised his eyebrows, and seemed normal when unexpectedly, he waved his hand and signaled the carriage to continue moving forward.

The carriage was moving forward, but as time passed, too many people couldn't stand such a big move.

Empress Dowager Gao in Cining Hall sat for a while, but was still very uneasy. She looked at Zhou He who was standing beside her and said, "What do you think the official family is going to do?"

Zhou He's body trembled slightly, and even a cold sweat broke out on his face. After a while, Empress Dowager Gao's words came to a shiver and said quickly: "Oh, ah, the villain doesn't know."

Empress Dowager Gao frowned, looked at Zhou He's expression, and suddenly said coldly: "Say!"

Just one word, Zhou He was shocked by thunder, kneeling on the ground with a thunderous sound, his face pale, his kneeling on the ground trembling, and his voice seemed to be tied up, saying, "Mom... Empress, villain... Liar... Liar... I have no choice... Please forgive me..."

Empress Dowager Gao's face turned pale, her eyes widened with anger, and she said angrily: "Okay, okay! What a good method!"

Zhou He knelt on the ground and started crying.

He was not a loyal and unyielding person who could withstand great punishment. In addition, the Imperial City Secretary threatened his family. In just one hour, Zhou He had almost all the moves.

As Empress Dowager Gao’s recent confidant, the chief supervisor of the Imperial Palace and Cining Palace, there is nothing he doesn’t know about Empress Dowager Gao.

Empress Dowager Gao stopped looking at Zhou He, stared at the door coldly, suddenly stood up and strode out.

Zhou He was in fear and forgot to stop him.

Empress Dowager Gao could only leave Cining Hall alone. She did not go anywhere else and went straight to Funing Hall.

In the Funing Hall, there were guards everywhere, and Zhao Hao kneeling in the yard.

No one stopped Empress Dowager Gao, Empress Dowager Gao came with anger. Looking at her son kneeling on the ground, she became even more angry. She strode over and shouted, "Who asked you to kneel here?"

Zhao Hao is now in a state of silence, and his heart is ashamed. Seeing Empress Dowager Gao coming, he lost his former spirit and just glanced at her blankly.

Empress Dowager Gao knew this son very well. If he had caused trouble in the past, he would have cried and hugged her legs long ago.

She looked at Zhao Hao's face coldly, and then saw the public book on the ground, and reached out to pick it up.

Zhao Hao's lips opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

Empress Dowager Gao opened her face with a blue face, and just glanced a few times and opened her eyes wide. The more she looked at her, the more she became more and more rapid. She saw that she felt dizzy and couldn't stand steadily, and she stared at Zhao Hao and said, "The military pay on Huanqing Road was lost, the summer, the digging of the Yellow River, these... are all true..."

Zhao Hao sat upright for a while and wanted to make a quibble, but he couldn't find any words.

When Empress Dowager Gao saw it, she felt that she was about to fall backwards when she saw it.

The guards around were shocked and hurriedly supported her. While passing on the imperial physician, they sent Empress Dowager Gao back.

Zhao Hao knelt in a daze, sitting there, dazed wood and godless.

The palace was in chaos, and Concubine Zhu and Meili Meng were alarmed and rushed to Cining Hall, staring at the imperial physician for treatment.

Empress Dowager Gao was not in a coma. She looked at Concubine Zhu and Meiren beside her and said in a low voice: "Where is the official family? I want to see him."

Concubine Zhu said softly with a worried look: "Grandmaster, I have asked someone to look for him. He is outside the palace and will be back soon."

Empress Dowager Gao no longer cared about what Zhao Xu did when he left the palace, so she turned to look at the top of the mosquito net, her eyes were dull.
