Looking up, on the Yanwuping not far away, more than a hundred imperial guards were busy practicing martial arts. The swords and swords were shining, the spears and tassels were flying, and the murderous aura was full of murderous aura.

?b?i?q?u?g?e?.

?c?n?

The sound of bowstrings when the feather arrows were shot out, the clanging sound of shields and guns, the rapid footsteps of the guards, the heavy breathing and the bold shouts, all the sounds combined, shocking the ears and giving people a feeling of being in the battlefield.

Zhu Youlang spoke and walked, and arrived at the Yanwuping. He slowly stepped onto a military parade platform not far away. He looked down at the guards in the audience who were training, waved his hand to call Wu Jisi, and sent a command to suspend the training. Everyone gathered in line to listen to the training.

After the drum was beaten, in just a moment, more than 150 guards were lined up in three neat rows, with a vast array of light and a forest of soldiers. Although the number of people was small, it could also give people a feeling of solemnity.

In front of the emperor, the guards in front of the emperor were all raised their chests and looked straight ahead. No one dared to make any noise. The wind was silent, as if even the air was condensed and no longer flowed.

Zhu Youlang nodded with satisfaction, and then said aloud: "The army in Jinyi, the guards of the country, and the claws of the emperor! You are responsible for the rise and fall of the imperial family and the heavy trust of the country. Those who fail to train will be eliminated ruthlessly, so you must not slacken in daily life. Do you understand?"

The guards knelt on one knee and said in unison: "I understand, I vow to protect the royal family to the death, and to protect Your Majesty, and never let them down!"

Zhu Youlang smiled with relief and said, "Okay! After the successful restoration of the country, I will enjoy wealth and honor with you. In addition, from today on, every month who passes the training will be added one or two more months!"

"I am thanking the emperor for his kindness!"

If you want to win people's hearts, it is far from enough to rely on spiritual motivation and empty-handed cakes. Material treatment must be kept up, otherwise others will not work hard and serve you wholeheartedly.

Zhu Youlang's treasury still has 70,000 to 80,000 taels of silver in the treasury. The foundation accumulated by the Guiwang Mansion over the past few decades is only so much left. However, adding one or two taels of silver to the three hundred Jinyi personal guards every month is still affordable for Zhu Youlang, and it is worth it. Pen       Quan?

Zhu Youlang wanted to say something else. The eunuch in charge, Yang Shouchun, had already trotted to him from outside the Yanwuping, and bowed his waist and said softly: "The emperor, the cabinet assistant, Lord Ding, has arrived in Wuzhou. After meeting Qingyuan's No. 1 Chen Bangfu at the city gate, he entered the city. Guo Chenghao, the governor of the Jinyiwei, requested to see him."

Zhu Youlang said, "Mr. Ding meets the town general Chen Bangfu, what's going on?"

"Okay, okay - it seems to be because of the refugees at the city gate." Yang Shouchun shook his head gently and said, "Prince, please forgive me. I am not very clear about the specific situation."

Zhu Youlang nodded: "I understand, Mr. Ding, then you send an envoy to express condolences. As for Guo Chenghao, let him wait in the palace of intention first, and then say I will arrive soon."

"Old slave obeys the order." After saying that, he turned around and left.

Looking at Yang Shouchun's departure back, Zhu Youlang said thoughtfully: "Cabinet auxiliary Ding Kuichu? Qingyuan Bo Chen Bangfu?"

Suddenly, he looked shocked and ordered: "Successor, come here!"

"I'm here!"

"Help me find out what happened before I entered the city."

"yes."

In the palace, Guo Chenghao had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Zhu Youlang slowly stepping in, he hurriedly bowed to greet him. Zhu Youlang waved, "No need to be polite."

After Zhu Youlang sat down, he took a teacup on the desk, took a sip and said, "How is the matter going, but it's still going well?"

Guo Chenghao bowed and said, "Thank you, Emperor Hongfu, everything goes well."

After saying that, he took out a slender wooden cylinder and a memorial from his sleeve, and respectfully rose to Zhu Youlang and said, "There are all things inside and there are memorials of the minister impeaching Ma Jixiang. Please ask the emperor to read them together.?            w?w?w?.b?i      q?u?g?e?.cn"

Zhu Youlang gently took the cylinder, opened the cover, took out the things inside, and saw that it was clear in his heart.

After opening the memorial, Ma Jixiang's charges were listed by Guo Chenghao for more than a dozen, and they were fatal.

After closing the memorial, Zhu Youlang praised softly: "Guo Aiqing, you have indeed failed my expectations. This matter is done beautifully."

The reason why Zhu Youlang wanted to get Ma Jixiang's evidence from Guo Chenghao was simply to force Guo Chenghao to stand in the side, and Ma Jixiang's evidence was Guo Chenghao's confession.

"The emperor is ridiculous, and I am afraid." Guo Chenghao bowed modestly, then stood with respectfully crossed his hands. He knew the emperor's meaning. He could not afford to offend Wang Kun, and the emperor could not afford to offend Wang Kun's party. At most, there would be some trouble in the future. If he offends the emperor, he would be in trouble immediately. What's more, the emperor has promised to give him a higher official position and greater power. He can naturally distinguish which is more important and which is better and which is better.

"Hahaha..." Zhu Youlang stared at Guo Chenghao for a moment, and suddenly burst into laughter. The hearty laughter resounded throughout the hall, and the sound of the sound was lingering around the beams for a long time. After the laughter stopped, Zhu Youlang got up and left his seat, walked to Guo Chenghao, patted his shoulder, and said with satisfaction: "Guo Qing, good looks! I have you to help me, why worry about the big thing?"

Guo Chenghao said sternly: "The emperor regards me as his confidant. I am willing to be a dog and horse for the emperor. I will die without hesitation!"

Zhu Youlang smiled and said, "I already know your feelings, but there is one thing I want to explain to you. The evidence of these crimes is not yet public. On the contrary, I will promote Ma Jixiang and be promoted."

Guo Chenghao asked unconsciously: "Why is this?" After saying that, he immediately reacted and realized the verbal offense, with a look of panic on his face: "I deserve to die, but I shouldn't question the Lord."

"It's okay." Zhu Youlang waved his hand to stop him and said, "I am afraid of being alerted. I think now is not the best time to take action. Don't worry, Ma Jixiang can't come back this time. No matter how high I promote him to an official position, he can't do it!"

"I understand." Guo Chenghao's heart moved when he heard this, and he already understood the emperor's meaning. In fact, he had this idea before. The emperor's real purpose of doing this was nothing more than to deal with Wang Kun. Ma Jixiang is Wang Kun's wings and traitors, so he naturally has to deal with him first.

Alas, I didn't expect that the scheming was so deep that there was no sign at first, until now it was suddenly difficult in the dark, which was really unfathomable. The more he thought about it, the more he became more surprised, the expression on his face became more respectful, and his body unconsciously turned down again.

"Just understand. I will promote him to commander of the Jinyiwei tomorrow with the merits of the West, and then promote him to a group of other ministers to confuse Wang Daban's eyes and ears, and then take this opportunity to promote you to the head of the Northern Fushi." At the end, Zhu Youlang said with a sarcastic look on his face: "I did not fulfill my promise immediately. My dear will not blame me in secret, right?"

"The emperor is so serious, why don't I be the kind of person who is ungrateful?"

"That's good." Zhu Youlang smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, the position of commander of the Jinyiwei is yours sooner or later. I need you to do something now, but you still have something to do before doing this."

"Please give me instructions for anything." Guo Chenghao bowed and stood by.

Zhu Youlang said: "I want you to control the Beizhen Fushi Department in the shortest time. Many of the trusted backbones under Ma Jixiang have been arranged by me to go to Zhaoqing with him. Now it is just convenient for you to clean up and rectify. If you don't have enough staff, you can pick some useful skills from the Nanzhen Fushi Department. In short, you must take down the Beizhen Fushi Department in the shortest time!"

After a pause, Zhu Youlang continued: "After taking control of the Beizhen Fushi, my dear minister would send more people to keep an eye on the residence of Mr. Ding, the cabinet assistant, including the every move of his subordinates in his family, as well as his confidant generals of the Beijing camp.

In addition to the city, people should also be sent to follow the various levels outside the city. As long as they are suspicious people who are related to Mr. Ding, they must be kept in mind. Once the evidence is conclusive, they can secretly wait for an opportunity to capture the people and others in the relevant situation."

"Cabinet auxiliary? Could it be-"

"Yes, according to the secret report, Ding Kuichu is suspected of treason and colluding with the enemy." As soon as Yang Shouchun mentioned Ding Kuichu, Zhu Youlang felt something was wrong. Then he searched the memories of his previous life and finally realized that the old coffin slaughter was actually a collusion traitor, and at this time, he was almost planning to entrust. Since he had predicted this in advance, he naturally had to take action first and stifle the threat in the bud.

"Ah, this - is this possible?" Guo Chenghao was extremely shocked. The cabinet assistant of the empire, the actual Prime Minister, wanted to treason the enemy, which really made him unbelievable.

"Now people's hearts are not old, and they forget their ancestors for several things. There are many traitors, and there are many people who sell their country and seek honor. So it's better to believe that they have something than they don't." Zhu Youlang said in a deep voice: "What is the Beizhen Fushishi doing, you have to be clear, don't think too much, just do it according to my wishes."

"After the order." Guo Chenghao hesitated for a moment and quickly accepted the order.

Zhu Youlang responded and said, "Time is tight, let's take action early. It's okay here, go quickly."

Just as Guo Chenghao was about to bid farewell, Zhu Youlang added another meaningful sentence: "My dear, you must remember that I can give you all this and take it back. I hope you can do it yourself."

This sentence caught Guo Chenghao off guard and his heart suddenly trembled. He gave a careful salute and then slowly withdrew.

...

On the seventh day of the first lunar month of the first year of Yongli in the Ming Dynasty, Wuzhou Prefecture City.

The sky was getting colder, and the cold wind kept whistling, making shrill sounds. The thin clothes of pedestrians in the street market were rustling by the cold wind. After a while, the only remaining hot air on their bodies was blown completely by the wind.

"Manager Liu, how far is we from Ding Xiang's mansion?" The person who spoke was a short and fat middle-aged man, dressed in a square scarf and robe, and a literati dress. There were several strong domestic slaves following him, following him with Dama.

Manager Liu was thin and had a clear face. Hearing this, he looked around and saw that no one was following him, so he carefully said: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, you will arrive soon, you will arrive soon."
