When those people were taken down, someone immediately reported to Tang Feng that he had arranged the people in the Five City Military and Ma Si, otherwise they would not have been so bold to capture these royal relatives. After hearing the people who came to tell the story, Tang Feng showed a contemptuous smile on his face. These people dared to be enemies with him. In fact, it was only a matter of one sentence to do it. However, these people are not really powerful, and although they are also royal families, these young people were obviously just used as guns. Tang Feng really wanted to take advantage of the situation to deal with those who were behind them.

Seeing that Tang Feng was silent after hearing his report, Bai Liangfeng couldn't help asking: "Duke, now everyone has been arrested in prison, what should we deal with them? They are also members of the royal family, and the five cities of the military personnel do not have the courage to hold them back. And I believe that someone has begun to find a way to save them now."

Tang Feng smiled slightly: "Since the five cities of the military personnel dare not keep them for the night, just send them to the Ministry of Justice Prison. Let the officials there help drag them for a while, I think the people in the Ministry of Justice should be more capable than us in this regard."

"Yes, let's do it now." Bai Liangfeng nodded readily and responded. With Duke An from behind, the power of their Jinyiwei had been greatly improved, so he would not be disappointed.

"Also, find out the identities of those who went to the Wucheng Military Affairs Office or the Ministry of Justice to rescue people, and then see if there are any other deeper people behind them. I will all the information in my hands within two days." Tang Feng added.

At this time, in a house in the Shiwang Pavilion, several mature and polite people were frowning and discussing the matter. They were all extremely noble people in the Ming Dynasty, including three dukes and four marquises, all from the Zhu family, and they were richer than the captured royal families. However, these people were a little confused now, frowned, but could not come up with a solution.

"Duke Yue, why do you think these people are so bold that they dare to capture so many of our royal family members." After enduring for a while, the man in his fifties and red face slapped the table and said, "They don't even look at their identity, they dare to make things difficult for the royal family."

Seeing that the most irritable Marquis of Dingbian spoke, the other people also echoed: "Who said no? A small five-city military officer dared to take on people so arrogantly. Even Wei Zhongxian was not so brave when he was in power. Those were all royal families of the Ming Dynasty."

"Duke of Yue, I think we should come forward and ask the person out, otherwise our face will be wiped out."

"Hmph, do you really think that it's just the people of the Five Cities Military Affairs Office? If it were just them, even if they were given ten courage, they wouldn't dare to take those county marquis and township marquis. It was someone instructing them behind their backs. I don't need to say who this person is." The Duke of Yue, who looked a little majestic, finally couldn't help but speak.

"This Tang Feng is too arrogant. Although he is a Duke, he doesn't have that much power." Someone said hatefully. Someone asked, "What should we do? Will we just let these people be locked up? This will not only damage our face, but also no one will help us if we want to do something in the future."

Duke Yue agreed with this view. This time the matter was the pushback of a few of them with old qualifications, which made the young and energetic clans go to the clan mansion to make trouble. Unexpectedly, the court was so decisive this time and took down everyone at once, which caught them off guard. Once the matter could not be settled this time, the position of these dukes and marquis in the clan's clan would plummet, and it would be difficult to do things in the future.

After pondering for a while, Duke Yue was still unsure of his mind. Nothing was clearer in the court than him. Since Tang Feng dared to do this, it means that he was fearless and he might not be able to do anything about these people, and he might even have caught up with him.

"Or why we go to the palace first to beg the Empress Dowager. As long as the Empress Dowager issues an imperial edict, I think they will never persist again, right?" Seeing that Duke Yue was so embarrassed, another marquis spoke.

"It seems that I have to do this. I hope the Empress Dowager will help us." Duke Yue nodded.

But this time they were still disappointed. It was not that the queen mother refused to help them, but because they could not enter the palace gate at all. They only care about their own affairs and completely forgot the time. Now it is the end of the You hour, and the palace gate has already been closed and locked. This makes them even more embarrassed. Who knows what will happen to the royal families who are locked in prison after a night?

After hesitating, Duke Yue finally decided to go to the Five City Military and Ma Si. He was still a little confident in his name. As long as the other party did not deliberately make things difficult for him, he should be able to save some people.

Yan Lang from the Five City Military Command gave a few marquises. After seeing the gift, the Duke of the State shook his head in embarrassment: "Duke Yue, how many masters, you are not the officials who refuse to give you such face, but you are really powerless to do anything about it. Because those men who have been taken down have long been no longer in our prison."

"Well? Where have the people gone?" Seeing that the other party's expression was not like a fake when he said this, Duke Yue frowned. He didn't expect that they were so quick. Knowing that the Five City Military and Ma Si was a small yamen, he might not have the courage to refuse him, so he changed the yamen.

"It was the criminal who came from the Ministry of Justice." Yan Lang said hurriedly, and his heart was relieved. As long as the person was no longer in his hands, the trouble would naturally be much less. To be honest, as an old official who had been in Beijing for so many years, he was accustomed to seeing people as food. If it weren't for Tang Feng's intention, he wouldn't dare offend those royal families, let alone taking over the people. But now it was Tang Feng's intention. Even if the person was really in his hands, he wouldn't hand over it. Although Duke An and Duke Yue were both Dukes, he knew who had the real power. Now that people are not here, Yan Lang was even more relaxed, at least he didn't have to offend Duke Yue.

Although Duke Yue was a little dissatisfied with this result, he could not get angry and had to leave with a gloomy face. The person actually arrived at the Ministry of Justice, and it would be difficult to rescue the person again. The Ministry of Justice is the judicial office of the court, and the officials there also have real power, and it is not something that he, a idle Duke, can deal with.

After thinking for a while, Duke Yue had to temporarily give up his plan to save people, and it would be better to go to the palace to plead with the Empress Dowager tomorrow. At that time, as long as the Empress Dowager speaks for the sake of the royal family, I hope those officials will not insist.

These dukes and marquis had not yet awakened until this time. The Ming Dynasty court was no longer the same. Not to mention that the empress dowager could not help them, even if she really spoke, it would be of no use. No official in the capital now knows Tang Feng's status. The people he wants to deal with have confirmed evidence. Does anyone dare to let go? But these royal families obviously didn't think about this, and they thought the court was the original court.

Their actions were delivered to Tang Feng as soon as possible. Seeing that they went to the palace and then to the Five City Military Command, Tang Feng threw the paper aside contemptuously: "These people have only such methods. It seems that I have overestimated their abilities." In fact, these people are not capable. In fact, their connections are all local. It is impossible for the capital to keep these people threatening the emperor's status. How can they ask them for help in a short period of time? Moreover, the current Beijing officialdom has been controlled by Tang Feng. Who would be unaware of the eyes and willing to offend Duke An Guo for these people?

After noon the next day, Duke Yue and others finally understood this fact. They first wanted to go to the palace to meet the queen mother and plead for mercy, but were stopped by the imperial guards in front of the palace gate and refused to let in. Even if they showed their identities, it would be useless. These people did not dare to be arrogant in front of the palace gate and had to leave in disappointment.

In desperation, Duke Yue was persuaded by others and had to go to the Ministry of Justice to take his luck. If he could not do anything, his prestige among the masters would be completely wiped out.

The attitude of the Ministry of Justice was even worse. Not only did the Secretary of the State did not come out to see them, but even the two ministers did not show up. Only one doctor received them in the side hall, which made the princes and the princes very angry. However, they had to endure it. After listening to them explaining their purpose, the young doctor shook his head in embarrassment: "Dear Dukes, this incident has alarmed Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. Some people dared to set fire to the clan's mansion, which made the emperor very angry and had issued an order to investigate the matter strictly. I am afraid that the officials will really not be able to accommodate them."

When Duke Yue and others heard this, they felt even more angry. Everyone knew that the emperor was not even speaking properly. He was even angry and issued an order. Isn’t this bullying them? It seems that Tang Feng wanted to take the opportunity to deal with these royal families. The fierce-tempered Marquis Dingbian slapped the table and went forward to ask the doctor. Fortunately, there was no bigger incident at all because of others blocking him.

Duke Yue knew that if he made a fuss about beating officials in the Ministry of Justice, he would be afraid that he would be taken down by waiting for a few people. You must know that Tang Feng's spearhead was aimed at all the people in the royal family. So he had to endure this tone and said with a slight smile: "Mr. Wen, since you are so embarrassed, we can't say anything anymore. But please tell the people above. We are all descendants of the Zhu family, and it's not their turn to point fingers in the world. Since you can't make a decision, we will go to find the person who can make a decision! Let's go!" After saying this, he took the other people away.

"Duke Yue, can we bear this matter? Those brothers are still in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. I heard that it was dark and wet, so I could not stand it if I stayed for a while..." After leaving the gate of the Ministry of Justice, someone finally couldn't help saying.

"It seems that finding these yamen can no longer play any role. If you want to solve the bell, you must tie the bell. If you want to save them, you have to go to see that Tang Feng. He captured everyone, and he must have his own intention. I will meet him." Duke Yue said hatefully. In the past two days, he felt that his face had really been lost.

After learning that those people had gone to the Ministry of Justice or returned in vain, Tang Feng returned to his home. He knew that those people would soon come to him. In order not to frighten his family, he simply stayed at home and waited for someone to come to him. After lunch, Tang Feng watched his two sons' homework in the study.

Tang Keqing and Tang Keman were already in elementary school age, and the mansion had already invited the men who were enlightened. When they were fine, Tang Feng would also take a look at the homework of these two boys. Fortunately, they just learned to recognize words and memorize some three-character classics. Tang Feng could understand it. If he really got to the eight-legged essay, he would have to catch it blindly.

Ke Qing was older and more persistent than his younger brother Ke Man and had better grades. Ke Man had liked to listen to his father's heroic deeds since he was a child, and he was not too interested in articles. As for his daughter Chuoer, Tang Feng also hired a female professor with some knowledge, and his knowledge is pretty good now. The three children in the family are still relatively sensible, which makes Tang Feng very proud.

Looking at the books they copied, Tang Feng smiled, and the words were the voice of his heart. Their personalities were also reflected on the paper of hundreds of words. One was steady and the other was free, which made Tang Feng have plans to educate his two sons in the future. Keqing could treat him according to the continued educational methods, and he might have a great future in his career. After all, the imperial examinations for thousands of years were not something he could change, and some systems in later generations may not be better and fairer than it.

As for Keman, Tang Feng could see that he was more lively. In addition to letting him learn some martial arts and military tactics and see if he could make a difference in military affairs in the future, he could also instill some modern thinking in him. Maybe after himself, this son could still shoulder the mission of revitalizing China. Thinking of this, Tang Feng showed a gratified smile on his lips.

At this time, a servant walked to the door and reported: "Master, there is a man who claims to be Duke of Yue who is looking for a meeting outside."

Finally, Tang Feng put the homework of his two sons on hand and said, "Take him to the living room, I will update the clothes before seeing him." Although the two sides had conflicts, the courtesy should not be abandoned. Seeing such a guest, he still had to wear more regular clothes.

After a while, Tang Feng changed his clothes and came to the living room. At this time, Duke Yue was a little impatient. He had been waiting for a while, and Tang Feng was so arrogant, which made him very unhappy. However, after seeing Tang Feng, Duke Yue reluctantly smiled.

The two of them exchanged a few greetings and then went straight to the topic. "Duke Anguo, I don't beat around the bush. The matter of taking people in front of the clan's mansion yesterday was your order. I wonder what you plan to release them?"

Tang Feng was so happy that he blew the tea leaves in the tea bowl, took a sip, and then said, "I don't understand what Duke Yue said. The person who arrested the people was the Military and Horses of the Five Cities. Now the people are in the Ministry of Justice. Why do you say that I mean it? The city of Beijing is full of powerful people, and everyone has the ability to take down these troublemakers."

"You..." Seeing that Tang Feng refused to admit it, this made Duke Yue's aura surge up, it took a long time to calm down his anger and said, "Don't there anyone who knows the power of Duke An's capital now? I won't say much nonsense anymore. How do you want to release the person?"

After looking at the other party carefully, Tang Feng smiled and said, "I did not arrest the person, but it is not impossible to save the person. It depends on what Duke Yue has to say to them. You must know that what they did is quite a small thing. Surrounding the clan mansion is a serious crime, let alone arson. Even if they are royal relatives and royal families, it is impossible to let go of this matter casually."

Seeing that Duke Yue was still dissatisfied, Tang Feng continued: "I don't know if Duke Yue heard about a past event. A powerful official in the court besieged a yamen in the local area because his family besieged a yamen, and eventually his whole family was convicted and he was killed. This sect's mansion is much higher than that of ordinary county yamen. How do you think the court will sentence it? Although they are royal families, this crime can never be escaped.

"Teach people besiege the yamen and set fire to the fire. To be honest, it was a misconduct, it was a collision with the court, to be big, it was a suspicion of rebellion, hehe, that was suspected of rebellion." Tang Feng sneered twice.

The past event he mentioned was the case of the Wang family. Duke Yue had heard of this. After thinking about it carefully, if he really wanted to investigate it, he really didn't know what would happen, which made Duke Yue really nervous.

"What should Duke An do to spare them?" Unconsciously, Duke Yue's attitude changed.

Tang Feng looked at him with satisfaction: "It's very simple. If you want to save their lives, you have to show sincerity. You also know the situation of the treasury now, otherwise the court would not issue such an order. The cost of the royal family must be reduced, and you have to ensure that they will no longer object.

"In addition, if you make such a big mistake, you will always have to punish them. I can give them a choice, either accept the court stick, and don't have to be too much, just fifty. Or you can spend money to atone for your sins, 500,000 taels of silver, which is very fair. As long as they can promise these two, I can release the people, and even their titles will not be moved. What do you think?"

When Tang Feng and the Lion spoke up and offered 500,000 taels of silver, the Duke of Yue almost jumped up. So many people had tens of millions of silver, which was obviously a kidnapping. But now people are in Tang Feng's hands, do they have any choice? If they refuse, not only will the people not be able to save them, but even the wealth of these people will not be able to be saved. The income of these royal families in the past few years will never be less than 500,000 taels.

"I can't agree to you for the time being. I have to discuss it with them before I can give you a reply. I hope you can allow me to meet with them."
