The purpose of several cabinet ministers is actually very simple. They come to see the emperor first and naturally try to test the emperor.

At least they must understand whether this order was issued by the emperor. If it was the emperor's order, then the situation would be serious. The emperor is now strong-willed. Since he has made up his mind to attack these scholars, it is not necessary to say that there is little room for maneuver. Even if it is a hornet's nest, it will cause harm to the country. As long as the emperor's will remains unshakable, no one can change the emperor's mind.

But if the Jinyiwei is a good man, it will make people feel relieved. But the few cabinet ministers are not simple people after all. They can't help but wonder what kind of crazy about Hao Fenglou was just an enemy of Dongchang, and then came to provoke scholars. Do you think that he didn't make enough enemies? The wood is so beautiful that the wind will destroy it. He will not understand this principle. Besides, a scholar may not be as good as a companion eunuch in front of the emperor, but ten, one hundred, one thousand, and one hundred? One hundred?

After all, the eunuch had too much power, so he was also the emperor's slave. The emperor could abandon him at any time, but scholars were different. Scholars were ministers. If they really made trouble to the point where they were out of control, they would shake the foundation of the country. Will the emperor let Hao Fenglou make trouble?

Based on this reasoning, this guy Hao Fenglou must be stupid.

However... whether it is Xie Jin or Yang Shiqi, he now has a deep understanding of the guy Hao Fenglou. This person seems reckless, but he is as careful as a hair, and seems simple. However, he always hides his cleverness. This person is definitely not stupid.

Then the contradiction arises, and this is neither stupid nor doing such a thing. What is his intention and his purpose? Or what is his intention behind this person?

As smart as Yang Shiqi, I am afraid that I can't figure it out. Since a smart person will not do stupid things, once this person does stupid things, the only possibility is that this person's intention has not been understood yet.

This is actually very terrible. Everyone here is a person who stands alone and controls the fate of the Ming Dynasty. Even if they have many differences, they have one thing in common, that is, no matter who they are, they have a strong desire for control. They are the most powerful ministers, they control everything, formulate plans, submit them to the palace for approval, and then distribute them to various departments for implementation. Each plan, whether step by step or decisive, will try to take matters into their own hands and not leave their control. But now, such a huge variable as Hao Fenglou suddenly appears. Something happens every now and then, but no one can predict what this guy will do next. This feeling is really uncomfortable.

Zhu Di's mind was different. When he heard the change outside the palace, he was stunned. When he learned that Zhu Yunwen had already revealed the news, he was not furious, but his face became deeper and his eyes became deeper, which made people a little confused.

Zhu Di's performance when the Jinyiwei took the man was also dull, but behind this dullness, he seemed to be weighing something.

Several cabinet ministers were indirectly urging, obviously knowing the emperor's attitude towards this matter, and Zhu Di could certainly understand their thoughts. Seeing these cabinet ministers being silent, Zhu Di just smiled deeply, and then he was talking about him.

Zhu Di was waiting, and the cabinet minister was touching his background, but he was waiting to touch Hao Fenglou's background.

This incident was too serious. First, the news of Zhu Yunwen was leaked, and Zhu Di felt something was wrong. But the more he was, the calmer he was, as if nothing had happened. The peace revealed by rumors and rumors among the outside world were very terrible.

Hao Fenglou came in, saluted and said, "Long live the words."

Zhu Di smiled pursed his lips and raised his hand: "Hao Aiqing sat down and talked."

Hao Fenglou had just settled down and someone immediately attacked. Hu Yan stood up. Hu Yan was angry and suddenly said, "Hao Fenglou, what are you going to do? Do you know what big thing you are provoking? Now the government and the public are shaking, rumors are everywhere, and people are criticizing the Jinyiwei for taking people without authorization. Now the scholars you have taken are hundreds or thousands, these people are all famous and all pillars of the country..."

"Emperor..." Hu Yan bowed to Zhu Di with tears in his eyes and said, "The Jinyiwei cannot do this. How can there be such indiscriminate and such a person in this world? Do you still need national laws? The court has been raising scholars for fifty years and has taken great pains. Do you have to make trouble today to the point of making them divorced from their wits?"

Hu Yan jumped out. In fact, as everyone expected, the cabinet would have to rebound fiercely. This may not be that the cabinet had to fight against Hao Fenglou, but that it would not be possible to explain to the following. Now the Qing Dynasty is so powerful that the cabinet is indifferent. These cabinet ministers are afraid that they will be scolded to the end. In this world, it is not all as strange as the cotton prime minister decades later. Now it is not like the Chenghua Dynasty, the prime minister who plays cotton, and the clay-sculptor. After all, no one wants to be scolded to be cursed and has been infatuated for thousands of years.

Zhu Di smiled and pressed his hands towards Hu Yan and said kindly: "Don't be excited. If you have anything to say, say calmly." Then he raised his face and said to Hao Fenglou: "Hao Aiqing, is Hu Aiqing serious about what he said?"

Hao Fenglou bowed and said, "Your Majesty, there are some things, but the Weishi is doing things according to the rules. The Jinyiwei has its own rules. Since it is a matter of investigating evil words, now there are evil words everywhere. The Weishi has no choice but to order people to take them. Instead of blaming the Jinyiwei, if you have this skill, it is better to tell those scholars that they should not cause trouble and not want to deceive the public. This is strange. Some people are thieves, and the Lord does not persuade the thieves to do good, but blame the officers and soldiers to catch the thieves. What is this? They are pillars of the court, can they do anything wrong?"

Yang Rong couldn't sit still anymore. He had always been a mature person, but today he was a little annoyed. His two disciples are still alive and dead. Yang Rong stroked his beard and said lightly: "Master Hao, how can they tell the truth about confusing the public?"

Hao Fenglou said seriously: "Someone claimed that Jianwen had already found traces in Zhangzhou, and he also said that the emperor ordered our Jinyiwei to take Jianwen. Isn't this a witch?"

Yang Rong stared at Hao Fenglou: "Just because of this?"

Hao Fenglou retorted: "Does Lord Yang think this is not serious enough? Jianwen and the emperor are uncles and nephews. Will the emperor order the Jinyiwei to get him? In these words, does it mean that the emperor is ruthless and unrighteous, and there is no love for the royal family?"

Hao Fenglou's verbal talk was quite powerful. In fact, before he came, he had already made accustomed to the public, so he was not afraid of danger.

Yang Rong smiled slightly: "No, no, no, the emperor did not take Jianwen, but just settled it properly. When Jianwen was in power, he made many enemies. The emperor placed him properly in Zijin Mountain in order to protect Jianwen, right? What I know is that Jianwen did arrive in the capital, just in Lanruo Temple. These scholars did not mean to slander the palace. However, Lord Hao was so popular, but he didn't know why?"

Yang Rong's words immediately shocked Hao Fenglou, and even Zhu Di could not help but suppress his eyebrows.

Zhu Yunwen is in Zijin Mountain and Lanruo Temple. This matter is secret, but why did Yang Rong know?

If we talk about what those scholars said before, the palace could deny it, and it could be said that this was rumors. The Jinyiwei was dispatched to cure it hard, and the matter would be over.

But now... the news is thrown out one after another, and every news seems to hit the nail on the head. It is no longer a nose and eye, just like a roundworm in the belly.

Hao Fenglou couldn't help but say, "Where did Lord Yang hear the news?"

Yang Rong smiled and said, "The outside world has spread, but Lord Hao doesn't know? Hey... Lord Hao, you are the magistrate of the Jinyiwei, but you only know how to take people. But you don't know anything about the outside world. What is the purpose of keeping this Jinyiwei? In the future, let the cabinet come to arrest the evil words."

Hao Fenglou couldn't help but look at Zhu Di. Zhu Di's face was gloomy and he could no longer calm down. Obviously, this matter could not be hidden and could not be kept in the fire.

Taking a deep breath, Hao Fenglou kept thinking about the solutions and weighing what he wanted. Finally, he suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Yang, there are indeed many omissions in his humbleness. Thank you for your reminder, but..."

Hao Fenglou smacked his lips and looked at the several cabinet ministers, thinking quickly: "I won't say this about Jianwen for the time being. I don't think that I came here for this matter. Since I asked about scholars, then... Mr. Hao had to answer. Actually, what they thought was not important? Is it a lie? It's not the lie. The Jinyiwei has the final say. Let's take a step back. Even if they are not lie, Mr. Hao just thinks they are suspicious and suspects that they have collusion with the rioters and insist on taking them. So what can I do?"

Scoundrel, play scoundrel!

You tell him reason, he tells you the rules of the Jinyiwei, you tells him the rules, he tells you the laws, you tells him the laws, you tells him the laws, this guy is actually playing a rogue in this Forbidden City, in this warm-up pavilion, in front of the emperor and the cabinet ministers.

Yang Rong and Hu Yan were both so angry that they were a little trembling. Hu Yan stood up and said repeatedly: "You...you...what do you mean? Hao Fenglou, the Jinyiwei is a public weapon, but not your private property."
