The palace was entered that day, and he was crying and said his grievances. The dignified King Ning actually cried bitterly. Zhu Di comforted him for half an hour before he calmed him down.

Immediately afterwards, the memorial from the Censorate was handed in at the right time, and many imperial envoys asked His Majesty to uphold justice immediately.

Hao Fenglou has never left any good impression on everyone. At this time, the wall was falling and everyone pushed him. Many people were reluctant to take advantage of it.

Subsequently, Ji Gang, commander of the Jinyiwei, Xie Jin, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, and other memorials from the Hanlin Huanghuai, Hu Guang, Hu Yan, Yang Rong, Jin Youzi, Yang Shiqiren, etc. were also handed over.

After Yongle ascended the throne, the power of the court had gradually shifted from the Secretaries of various ministries to the Hanlin Academy, especially some close Hanlin attendants and lecturers. Because of their day and night accompanying the monarch, they became Zhu Di's main consultant. Therefore, although their rank was not high, they had already mastered the central power. The cabinet of the Ming Dynasty also had some prototypes because of this.

Of course, Zhu Di's arrangements were naturally his intentions. He was the emperor from Jingnan. He was the emperor and the ministers of the Jianwen Dynasty. Zhu Di believed the veterans of the Jianwen Dynasty, but instead promoted these newcomers and entrusted them with important tasks, which made him feel more at ease.

In Fengtian Hall, a discussion quietly began around the Donghua Gate incident.

Xie Jin's attitude was the most resolute and said seriously: "Your Majesty, Hao Fenglou's move is no different from treason. Today, when the royal family is suspicious, he asked His Majesty to immediately issue an order for the crime of rebellion to punish Hao Fenglou, to be clear about the punishment of the righteous and to calm the hearts of the people."

Xie Jin took the lead and Hu Guang immediately agreed that Mr. Hu was very young. He was a Jinshi in the second year of Jianwen, but now he is a scholar. He was the first to come out to support him. On the one hand, although he had his own ideas, on the other hand, because he and Xie Jin were fellow villagers. There was a nursery rhyme in Jishui, Jiangxi, saying that he was a three Jinshi in one school, three top scholars in five miles, nine miles of governors, and nine sons and ten prefects. Among them, the five miles of three top scholars were about Xie Jin and Hu Guang. Their ancestral homes were only five miles apart, and they were both top scholars, with fellow villagers and colleagues, and heroes cherished heroes, and had already worn the same pair of pants. Then Jin Youzi and Hu Yan nodded and said, "I think this should be done."

That's right, Jin Youzi and Hu Yan are both from Jiangxi, not only that, Yang Shiqi in the same hall is actually from Jiangxi. Among the people present, Jiangxi people account for a full 70% of them. They are both fellow villagers and are inevitably formed cliques, and there is no need to offend Xie Jin for a small Jinyiwei household.

However, Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong were silent. Yang Rong did not say anything because he had always been excluded by the Jiangxi Gang, so there was no need to praise these people's stinky feet. However, Yang Shiqi, although he was from Jiangxi, seemed to see the unhappy look on Zhu Di's face. He couldn't help but wonder, Your Majesty must have any difficulties in doing so, and he was not in a hurry to express his opinion at this time.

Sure enough, after a group of popular statements, Zhu Di did not nod directly, but instead looked at Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi who remained silent, and said in a plain tone: "What are the ideas of the two beloved ministers?"

Generally speaking, so many people unanimously put forward opinions, but the emperor suddenly asked the few two silent people again, and his attitude was actually very clear. The emperor was very dissatisfied with the statements of Xie Jin and others.

Yang Rong pondered for a moment before saying, "I thought that the matter had happened, and it was irreversible, but the state had national laws. If Hao Fenglou was immediately punished, it would seem that the palace would do everything to please the princes. This would be good, but it would inevitably make the people of the world think that Your Majesty was unfair. After all, Hao Fenglou was the emperor's personal army, and it would be fine if he was an ordinary person, but his identity was also sensitive. It would be better to figure out the matter first and then make a decision. In this way, if there was a personal army that was illegal, he would be severely punished. But if it was understandable, but he would protect the royal family indiscriminately, it would inevitably make people criticize him."

Zhu Di had a gloomy face and still did not express his opinion. Finally, he looked at Yang Shiqi and said, "What do you think about Shiqi?"

Yang Shiqi looked at Zhu Di deeply, as if he had figured out something, and said calmly: "What Yang Shidu said is not bad, but the empress also has some superficial opinions. The matter is so big, Hao Fenglou must punish it. The key is how to punish it. Your Majesty should follow the root of the matter, find out the truth, and then punish it."

These words seemed to be similar to Yang Rong's meaning, but in fact they were a thousand miles apart. Yang Rong's meaning was to find out the matter clearly, distinguish right from wrong, and then deal with it. However, although Yang Shiqi also advocated finding out the matter clearly, the original intention of finding out was to distinguish responsibility. If Hao Fenglou did take the case, he still had to be punished. Of course, this punishment would be much lighter. Xie Jin and others shouted that they would be punished with rebellion. This was too serious. As long as Hao Fenglou was not wrong, he would be demoted to the people. In this way, not only did he give the royal family explanation, but it seemed that the emperor also had the intention to preserve Hao Fenglou.

People like Xie Jin and others directly deal with rebellion, which is not only ruthless, but also gives people the feeling that the emperor is indulging in the royal family. As for Yang Rong, it is not good to do business. If Hao Fenglou is really innocent, he will be the only one who can pretend that nothing has happened in the end. But the injured person is Prince Ning after all, so why don’t the royal family get furious?

On the contrary, Yang Shiqi's method is the most appropriate. Even if Hao Fenglou is not wrong, His Majesty still punishes it. This is the face of taking care of the vassal kings. To give King Ning an explanation, no one dares to say no.

Zhu Di smiled: "What Shi Qi said is very much."

This sentence made Xie Jin and others feel a little embarrassed. The fellow villagers cheated on the fellow villagers. Who knew that at this time, Yang Shiqi actually made innovations and took what His Majesty like, but they seemed to be out of the world.

Yang Shiqi smiled bitterly. He felt something was wrong from the beginning because the emperor didn't care about Hao Fenglou and needed to consult so many ministers. In a straight sentence, Hao's head moved, and the world naturally became quiet. Why not do it in one go? So he had long expected that His Majesty would call everyone to ask for opinions, but to come up with an answer that suits his psychology. The answer is that he should not only appease the vassal king, but also take Hao Fenglou's life.

Zhu Di then asked: "Whether to investigate thoroughly, how should we investigate thoroughly?"

The ministers looked at each other and roughly understood His Majesty’s thoughts. How to investigate became another problem.

If the Jinyiwei was asked to investigate by himself, it would be inevitable to cover up the other yamen? In fact, it may not be reliable. Everyone knows that King Ning has a great influence. What is the final result? It is probably unfair.

Xie Jin suffered a loss, but now he is cautious in his words and actions. Others think that Xie Jin does not speak and is not easy to speak.

However, Yang Rong said seriously: "This matter is not a trivial matter. It involves the vassal kings. Your Majesty must not be out of the matter. I personally think that you should be the imperial court to judge the palace. Only with Your Majesty's ability can you distinguish right from wrong."

Zhu Di touched the case, laughing without saying a word.

Yang Shiqi added: "Mr. Yang said so much. Only when Your Majesty judged him, he could block the long mouths of the people in the world."

These words are very powerful. If someone comes to the trial, if Hao Fenglou is not guilty, King Ning will definitely not accept it, and he will definitely jump out and scold injustice. But if Hao Fenglou is guilty, others will only think that someone protects King Ning and frames the loyal and kind. The role of the imperial trial is not to solve the problem, but to appease public opinion. The emperor comes forward to make a decision, who dares to disobey?

Zhu Di smiled, nodded and said, "It's so good, and the Japanese court will discuss it later. Then... I will summon King Ning and other royal families to escort Hao Fenglou into the palace the next day. The two Yang Qings stayed and talked to me about the matters of the imperial interrogation. The rest of them were all busy with official duties."

Xie Jin and others were driven out in shame. Many people's faces were not very good. Yang Rong was fine, but this Yang Shiqi made everyone feel that they had a knife in the back. After leaving the hall, Xie Jin walked in front of him, Hu Guang quickly followed him and said in Jishui dialect: "Sir Xie, what's wrong with Yang Shiqi? Why didn't he understand a few words in advance, and suddenly spoke loudly in front of His Majesty."

Xie Jin's face was calm. He looked up at the afterglow in the sky, but asked back: "What do you think of this Hao Fenglou?"

Hu Guang sighed, "It's hard to say."
