Zhu Youxiao didn't speak, just watched quietly, waiting for Chen Kedao to give him an answer.

Zhu Youxiao believed that Chen Kedao knew how to choose.

In this world, there are not many people who can reject themselves.

Sure enough, after thinking for a long time, Chen Kedao stood up, bowed and said, "Students are willing to listen to your majesty's arrangements."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, then laughed and said, "In that case, then this matter is settled."

After speaking, he turned to look at Chen Hong and said, "Leave this matter to you. If you can speak with Jin Yiwei, let Jin Yiwei be responsible for this matter."

After listening to Zhu Youxiao's words, Chen Hong quickly said: "I will arrange for someone to do it right away."

Chen Hong had a very profound understanding of his own prince's words.

Can't the emperor instruct the royal guards to take care of it?

Of course. Luo Sigong, the commander of the Imperial Guard, may be waiting for the emperor to give him orders!

But the emperor asked him to do it himself.

There are two meanings here.

On the one hand, I am warning myself and Luo Sigong, I know what you are doing. I have no control over it, so you should handle it well. If there are no mistakes, then I will not pursue you; if there are mistakes, then there is nothing to say.

The second meaning is actually to give him Lao Chen support.

If you want to cooperate with Jin Yiwei, you must come up with something to prove your usefulness. Who will cooperate with you as a useless collaborator?

If the emperor directly instructs the Jin Yiwei to handle this matter, then what is his role?

So now, the emperor has left this matter to him, and he can use it to hold Jin Yiwei hostage.

Of course, there is actually a third meaning here, but it is buried deeper.

That is to let yourself take the blame.

Once something goes wrong, or something cannot be done, then you will be the one taking the blame.

The emperor must be right. Once things go wrong, the only one who is wrong is himself.

There are risks here, but there are also opportunities.

Can I refuse it myself?

I have no right to refuse.

So Chen Hong agreed very happily.

Zhu Youxiao nodded with satisfaction and said, "This couldn't be better. Okay, you go down and do it!"

After the two people left, a young eunuch came in and reported that Wei Zhongxian was here.

Zhu Youxiao had a smile on his face, and Wei Zhongxian really couldn't sit still.

Obviously Jin Yiwei put a lot of pressure on Wei Zhongxian.

This is what Zhu Youxiao wants to see. He cannot allow Wei Zhongxian's family to dominate.

No matter how much you trust this person, you cannot leave everything to him.

Everyone has selfish motives, even if he is very loyal to you and this country, it is still the same.

Everyone in the court is quarreling. Can we say that they have no intention of serving the country and the people? Impossible.

It's just that everyone is more selfish. Everyone is selfish.

No matter how beautifully someone manages things in Liaodong, if I am not involved, what does it mean to me?

This is the thinking of a selfish person.

So there are people who have been holding back things in Liaodong.

Things in Liaodong can be done or done well, but it must be done by me. If it is not done by me, then I would rather not do it or mess it up. If it is messed up, then it should be done by me.

Zhu Youxiao has long seen through that the so-called party and government are not a battle over lines, but a battle over interests.

This is the essence of party struggle in the late Ming Dynasty.

Your interests are not my interests, and the interests you give me are not the interests I want.

As for the interests of the country and the emperor, they are put in the back, because these two interests are the same to everyone.

The Donglin Party thinks so, and Wei Zhongxian thinks so too. There is no essential difference between the two.

It is impossible for Zhu Youxiao to let these people think this way, nor can he let these people do this, so balance is the key.

Only by balancing can you let them do things according to your own ideas.

Jinyiwei's side has made arrangements, but Dongchang's side is a bit at a disadvantage.

Now, Zhu Youxiao wants to add some extra points to Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian is still very sensitive, so he is here now.

Glancing at the little eunuch, Zhu Youxiao directly ordered: "Let him come in."

Not long after, Wei Zhongxian walked in from outside.

After meeting Zhu Youxiao, he quickly lay on the ground and saluted, "My slave, please see the Emperor."

Nodding slightly, Zhu Youxiao said: "Okay, get up!"

When Wei Zhongxian stood up, Zhu Youxiao continued to ask: "What are you doing here?"

"Your Majesty, I am here today to report the Liaodong case to your Majesty. After your interrogation and investigation, the case has been almost completed," Wei Zhongxian said quickly.

"Really?" Zhu Youxiao showed an interesting expression and said, "Then let's talk about it."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Zhongxian quickly agreed, and then said: "The slaves interrogated those who impeached Xiong Tingbi, and they confessed to their crimes. They did accept bribes from Liu Guojin. After accepting bribes from Liu Guojin,

, they listened to Liu Guojin and impeached Xiong Tingbi."

"The slave interrogated Liu Guojin again. According to his confession, the person who instigated him behind his back was actually the commander-in-chief Li Ruzhen. He was instructed by Li Ruzhen to collude with these people to frame Xiong Tingbi."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, as if suddenly enlightened, and said with emotion: "That's it! No wonder these people are so uniform. It turns out that they colluded with each other and had a premeditated plan. They usually pretend to be gentlemen, but they actually did this.

Here comes the thing! The Metropolitan Procuratorate, which has the eyes and ears of the emperor, actually committed such a scandal, and Zou Yuanbiao cannot escape the blame!"

At this time, Chen Hong had quietly returned. Wei Zhongxian came to see the emperor, but he was worried that he was not around.

Wei Zhongxian glanced at Chen Hong, who had secretly returned, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Seeing Wei Zhongxian looking at him, Chen Hong smiled at Wei Zhongxian, put his hands in front of his lower abdomen, and stood there with a harmless look.

When Zhu Youxiao saw this scene, he said nothing and had no intention of driving Chen Hong away.

Wei Zhongxian knew that Chen Hong would be his biggest enemy from now on.

It’s all my fault that I neglected to take precautions and allowed this guy to take advantage of me!

But it was too late to think about this now. The one who made him angry was Luo Sigong, the commander of the Imperial Guards.

Luo Sigong, wouldn't it be good for you to take refuge with me, Old Wei? You must take refuge with this old coffin scooper!

But Wei Zhongxian also knows that now is not the time to care about these things.

I have to handle the current affairs beautifully, so that the emperor can take me more seriously. Otherwise, I won't even be able to pass the current level.

Hearing that the emperor pointed the finger at Zou Yuanbiao, Wei Zhongxian was not stupid. He naturally knew what to say and what to do.

Zou Yuanbiao was ordered to stay at home by the emperor. If he didn't pounce on him and take a bite, he would be really sorry for himself. Zhou Zhou wants to eat meat! He wants to eat McDonald's! He even dreamed about sauced elbows last night!!! He was crying from hunger!
