Prince Zheng Duanhua couldn't help but get up and asked, "Han Xiufeng, do you know what crime should you be responsible for lying about military information?"

"Report to the prince, Xiufeng understands."

"Then why do you dare to hear from others and speak nonsense!"

"Report to the prince, what Xiufeng reported was not heard from, but the person from my Shanghai branch of "Houyi Hall" risked his life to sneak into Jiangning City to find out." Han Xiufeng paused and bowed, "Your Majesty, I know that the court has received a report from Liangjiang, and my Shanghai branch is just a verification."

Thinking that Han Xiufeng was an honest man, and there was no need to seek credit and reward for this, Xianfeng couldn't help but ask: "Who is the person who inquired about the news? Did you send it out back then?"

"Report to the emperor, this matter is a long story."

"Then let's say it more important."

"I obey the order."

Wen Xiang and Wang Naizeng are sometimes bold and sometimes very cautious in their work. For example, they are too cautious in Zhou Xingyuan. Han Xiufeng felt that there was no need to hide it, so he simply ordered Zhou Xingyuan to go to Shanghai to raise funds during his lifetime. Later, when Xiang Rong died, he was targeted by others. Wherever Li Jin went, he jumped into the Yellow River and could not clear things. He reported it truthfully.

As Han Xiufeng expected, Xiang Rong was already dead, and no one would argue with a dead person. Xianfeng pondered for a moment, signaling Zaiyuan and Sushun to get up, and pondered: "In this way, although Zhou Xingyuan suffered an injustice, he still wanted to atone for his merits. In order to verify whether the news was true or false, he risked his life to sneak into Jiangning to inquire?"

"Reported to the Emperor, although the Jiangnan camp was defeated by Changmao, the Jiangnan government army, especially the generals and officials who led the troops, did not die for the country. Zhou Xingyuan was ordered by Xiang Rong to go to Shanghai to set up a checkpoint to collect funds. Many people should know the inside story of raising funds for the Jiangnan government army. However, most of the generals who led the troops were outside Jiangning City, too far from Shanghai, so they could not even bother to defend his larger-than-sperm county magistrate."

Seeing the emperor's thoughtful look, Han Xiufeng took out his sleeve and made a stack of silver notes that he had taken to "Houyi Hall" and submitted them respectfully: "When he was dismissed from his post, he was worried that he would not have been able to pay the 50,000 taels of gold to the Jiangnan camp. The officials who were investigated were corrupt because such a thing happened. So he transported the 50,000 taels of gold into the concession and handed it to his sister, and then went to Jiangning without hesitation to inquire about the news of Changmao's internal strife!"

"This Xiang Rong, why don't you pay me a memorial to tell me if the military pay is not enough? How dare you... How dare..." Thinking that Xiang Rong was dead, Xianfeng sighed and said lightly when he was halfway through his words.

Sushun realized that a loyal minister like Zhou Xingyuan should not tell lies, so he couldn't help but bow and said, "Emperor, when Qin Rigang suddenly withdrew from Shi Dakai and suddenly withdrew from Hubei, the slave wondered why they stopped fighting while fighting. Now it seems that they are really having an internal strife!"

"Your Majesty, now I think about it, I really blame Yiliang!" Duan Hua exclaimed.

Zaiyuan said even more happily: "Changmao's internal strife, only one of the few fake kings is left. It is indeed good news, and it is indeed great news!"

Looking at the actual record of the Hadith of the late emperor in front of him, thinking of the various auspicious signs during the morning ceremony, and thinking about the fact that the person who inquired about the news was a loyal minister who almost suffered a grievance and wanted to serve the court. Xianfeng not only felt that the news was true, but also felt that the late emperor appeared, and couldn't help but burst into tears: "God bless me, God bless me, and God bless me!"
