Chapter 315: Rebound
Hu Guang's face suddenly became gloomy.
He felt that he was fooled, and this anger was conceivable.
But the person who fooled him was the emperor, which made him happy for nothing. It involved Hao Fenglou, which really made him feel confused and lost his most basic judgment for a while.
Now, after Xie Jin reminded him, he immediately understood the joint. On the surface, he was furious, but in fact he made the matter a big deal.
The bigger the matter is, the more muddy the water.
He could almost imagine what would happen next. And His Majesty's intentional partiality obviously only made things even more difficult.
Hu Guang sighed heavily and then sneered: "The net of heaven is vast and unlimited. I don't believe that Hao Fenglou can escape the blame if he commits such a serious crime!"

The imperial edict was issued, and Qiu Fu and the right censor of the Censorate of the Censorate also made a move.
At the same time, countless messengers who reported the news opened the magnificent mansions.
……………………
"What? Even the Major General took it?"
The person who spoke was Cheng Jian, the commander of the Yanshan Left Guard. Cheng Jian was a hero of Jingnan. He was granted the title of Marquis for his merits. Now he is in charge of the Yanshan Left Guard. He is not very responsible or small.
At this moment, he received the notice and his face suddenly fell. The court had sent people to Annan to capture Zhang Fu.
Logically speaking, Cheng Jian and Zhang Fu, one in the personal military guards and the other in the Governor's Office, could not be beaten.
However, the relationship between the broken lotus here is very complicated. Back then, Cheng Jian was just a small personal soldier, responsible for Zhang Yu's daily life when he was in Peking.
At that time, Zhang Yu took great care of him and did not care about his humble background. He promoted him again and again. Later, Zhang Yu died in battle, and many of Zhang Yu's confidants were promoted. Cheng Jian also made his mark and climbed up step by step, making many achievements in the Jingnan Dynasty.
It can be said that Cheng Jian is more like a retainer of the Zhang family. The reason why he can get to this point is entirely thanks to the Zhang family.
When he was a personal soldier, he was responsible for guarding the Zhang family. Zhang Fu was still young at that time. He had learned some martial arts from him in the past. For him, Zhang Fu was both the son of the benefactor and the apprentice. Now that he heard that Zhang Fu was in trouble, Cheng Jian could no longer sit still.
Military people are no better than literati. Literatures get the benefits of others. Once they have something to do, even if they take the blame, they won’t say anything. Even if they are criticized behind their backs, as long as you are thick-skinned, it doesn’t matter.
But warriors are different. Once warriors are looked down upon by others, they will curse themselves in front of you.
Just say that the left guard of Yanshan Mountain, if Cheng Jian ignored Zhang Fu, the military officers below would look down on him. After all, the Zhang family had too deep influence in the army.
Cheng Jian didn't even hesitate and immediately said: "Come and go and invite Shouyang Marquis, Zhangshu Marquis, Yu Cheng Bo..."
He said many names in succession, including his old friends and many of them were recommended by the Zhang family.

A few days later, in Yunnan, when the fast horse arrived at the Duke Mansion with a letter, the entire Duke Mansion was in an uproar.
Almost all the generals and staff members were here.
Duke Mu Chun of Qian held an urgent report in his hand, his face turned pale. He said nothing, but just passed the urgent report on it for everyone to circulate it.
After reading the urgent report, everyone stopped talking.
Mu Sheng and Qian Duke Mu Chun are brothers of their relatives. Once Mu Sheng is convicted, this is an immeasurable event for the Mu family. Even if the brothers are not harmonious, one person has something to do, the whole family will suffer. This has always been a tradition of the Ming Dynasty. At present, Mu Sheng’s crime is that he cannot restrain the soldiers or even condonate mutiny. It should be noted that many of the soldiers brought by Mu Sheng are soldiers from Yunnan, and many military officers are retainers of the Mu family. Once these people are convicted, the consequences can be imagined.
Mu Chun's face was very gloomy. He felt that a disaster was coming in both public and private affairs.
Not long after, a woman came crying and brought her two and a half-old boys to ask for a meeting.
This woman is Mu Chun's sister-in-law, Mu Sheng's wife, and most likely came to ask for help after hearing the bad news.
Mu Chun had to wink at an aide. The aide nodded, stepped out, and went out to comfort him.
After a long time, Mu Chun slapped the table hard, his eyes turned bloody and said, "The right and wrong of this matter, I don't want to know. I only know that this matter is extraordinary, and I must not ignore it. I must protect my second brother no matter what. The situation in the capital is very complicated. It is reported that the Chen family, the Wang family and the Zhang family have already started to move around. They want to save people, and we must also save people. People cannot bear this guilt. Annan has to send someone to inquire about the news immediately.
Jinling immediately compiled a book to the third and fourth brothers, asking them to rescue them with all their strength. It is time for me to write a book here. Some people in the court are so unscrupulous, so why? It is because they don’t know how afraid they like to join in the fun, and the walls are falling and everyone pushes them, and they want everyone to step on their feet. So we have to clear our attitude and tell those who want to take the opportunity to step on one foot. If you step on someone, beware of someone breaking your legs in the future."
"Your Majesty's attitude is the most important. You should not underestimate it. It is said that there are some rumors that Your Majesty still favors Hao Fenglou and his second brother. I have no impression of this Hao Fenglou, but I have been quite favored recently and am now the adopted son of the palace. It is not surprising that Your Majesty will not punish him severely. In addition, there is Zhang Fu, who is the descendant of Zhang Yu. Your Majesty has been thinking about Zhang Yu until now and has been obsessed with him. So... Everyone should not worry too much. Oh... It's really not possible. At worst, I will go and apologize. Let's see what Your Majesty says."
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
An individual begins to take action.
Facts have proved that some people are indeed not easy to provoke. The whole thing began to bottom out and the words that were originally criticized suddenly appeared in disarray. Instead, there were more memorials criticizing King Annan.
Chen Tianping is not a good guy at all. He has to find out his faults, just like playing. His various "bad deeds" in Annan were naturally exposed ruthlessly at this time.
The strange atmosphere in Nanjing was not actually affected by Annan.
On the side of Annan, Qiu Fu and the Right Censor Chen Xiong were already fast and arrived at Shenglong through Lang San.
Too many things have happened in the past seven or eight days, but for Qiu Fu, his purpose of coming here was to take over the army in the south.
Fortunately, with his reputation, these are nothing, so I don’t worry about any trouble.
The accompanying personal troops were already surrounded by Yang Xiong, recruiting Hao Fenglou, Zhang Furen and others, and reading the order.
Immediately, a few people took it directly, and the treatment of these people will naturally not be too bad. Not to mention that Qiu Fu had already established a relationship, so that he would not make things difficult for him along the way. Even if he didn't say hello, no one dared to be arrogant to these people.
So even if we were to handle it, these personal soldiers were polite. Not only did they prepare the carriages and horses, they never put any shackles on them, and they bowed and beat them one by one, as if they were personal soldiers.
A thousand households who led the team were named Liu Yan. Liu Qianhu was very concerned about Hao Fenglou, Zhang Fu, Mu Sheng and others. After preparing the carriage and horse, they came to ask whether the carriage and horse were comfortable. If they felt it was inappropriate, they would find another way.
Facing such a military officer who was in custody, it was really ridiculous.
Zhang Fu's temper is naturally bad. He may not be worried that he will be convicted, but he was taken back to Beijing. He was really embarrassed for him. He thought he was not worthy of his father. He thought that he was so noble when he was alive, so he embarrassed him. Therefore, before setting off, he was depressed and could not lift up any energy in anything he did.
Mu Sheng was calm. When the imperial edict was about to take him, he was a little shocked at first, but later he thought about it and seemed to understand something, so he became free and easy.
When he set off, he and Hao Fenglou were in the same car. He looked at Hao Fenglou and then said, "This time, there are bad luck and good things to enter Beijing. In fact... it may not be a bad thing. No matter what, you don't have to worry."
Hao Fenglou smiled, looked at Mu Sheng, and said, "General Mu also saw the strange thing?"
Mu Sheng smiled and said, "Are you stupid? If the Holy Majesty only takes you, then you will be truly dead. Now that you have taken so many, let us accompany you to the capital, it shows that Your Majesty may not really blame you. But... you must not be too optimistic. This matter is too horrible after all. Even if Your Majesty has other thoughts, you may not be able to rest assured. In short, everything will be said after entering the capital."
Hao Fenglou pursed his lips and leaned comfortably on the soft pad in the car: "Yes, let's talk about it when I enter Beijing, but because I have implicated everyone, I feel a little sad."
Mu Sheng shook his head and said solemnly: "Chen Tianping is worthy of death. You just did what everyone wants to do but didn't do. To be honest, I admire you very much. If it were me, I would not have the courage of you. After all... I would still be looking forward to the front and back. But now there is no need to look forward to the front and back. I got on the 'prison car' with you, and I would have no chance to look forward to the front and back."
Hao Fenglou couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
