When he heard Yang Feng's order, Li Yan, who had already had enough understanding of Yang Feng's lawlessness, was almost scared.

Li Yan did not hesitate to those salt merchants or arrest the officers who participated in the assassination of Yang Feng these days. After all, he could understand Yang Feng's mood. Since they were all ready to take their own lives, they naturally didn't have to show mercy to them.

But Pan Ruzhen is different. He did not directly participate in this matter. At most, he just made accusations. Besides, he is a high-ranking official in a province and a second-rank official in the court. In the words of later generations, he is a senior official of a high-ranking official. Who dares to attack such a person without the orders of the emperor and the cabinet?

"Dude." Li Yan's face wrinkled like a bitter melon: "Pan Ruzhen is the governor of Zhejiang. If you really want to arrest him, it will cause chaos. Besides, there is no order from the court. If he really wants to move, he may be declared as a rebellion by the court immediately."

"Who dares to declare my rebellion?" Yang Feng snorted coldly: "Zhejiang has paid less and less taxes to the court over the years. Why is this? Isn't it because Pan Ruzhen, who is the governor, does nothing? Since he was appointed by the emperor and the court, he had to share the worries and do the court's affairs. But he was fine, he had to join forces with the gentry and merchants to cheat the court's money, and such a governor should have been taken down long ago."

Li Yan still tried to persuade him again: "But even if you want to take him down, you have to let the court take action. We will obviously cross the line."

Yang Feng stopped talking, but he stared at Li Yan and said word by word: "Li Yan, you have to remember that I am giving you an order, not asking for your opinions. If you have no opinions, you have to execute them, and you have to execute them. If you don't want to execute the order, you can just say it, and this guild will do it another person!"

Looking at Yang Feng's serious face, Li Yan realized that he had just done something stupid, and as a subordinate, he was actually trying to disobey.

As a praising painting, the responsibility is to provide advice for the coach to make up for the shortcomings, rather than trying to force the coach to take back his life.

No coach would like a subordinate who does not obey orders. No matter how ridiculous Yang Feng’s order sounded just now, as a subordinate, he should execute it without fail after hearing the coach’s orders, rather than arguing with the coach here.

Thinking of this, Li Yan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and lowered his head in panic: "Mr. I'm wrong in my position, please punish me."

"snort!"

Forget it this time, I don’t want to have a second time. I will enforce military laws next time. If you think the Jiangning Army cannot tolerate you, you can also leave the Jiangning Army. Do you understand?

"I understand." Li Yan knelt down silently on one knee, gave Yang Feng a big gift, and then strode out of the door.

Looking at Li Yan's back, Yang Feng scratched his chin. Although Li Yan had been a bandit for several months and now defected to him again and had experienced so many things, the scholarly spirit in his bones was still not smoothed out. It seems that he still cannot be reused and needs to be tempered for several years.

After leaving Yang Feng's gate, the more Li Yan thought about it, the more he felt annoyed by his performance just now. As a subordinate, after the commander issued an order, he repeatedly questioned the commander's military order. If it were a coach with a bad temper, he would have dragged himself down and killed him long ago?

Li Yan, who was nervous, came to the military camp, read out Yang Feng's handwriting and token to the lieutenant general, and mobilized five thousand troops to surround the governor's yamen.

The Fubiao camp, who was in charge of the guards, immediately stopped working. Your Jiangning Army actually led troops to siege the governor's yamen. What are you trying to do?

When the central officer of Fubiao Battalion saw that the Jiangning army was coming in full force, he immediately sent someone to report to Pan Ruzhen. He went up to ask, but he didn't expect that he was detained by Li Yan as soon as he stepped forward. Then Li Yan led the soldiers forward and confiscated the more than ten soldiers from Fubiao Battalion responsible for guarding, and then the army rushed towards the governor's yamen.

Soon, Pan Ruzhen, who was writing a memorial in the study, heard the sound of rapid footsteps coming from outside, and a family came in to report: "Master, Chen Zhongjun sent someone to report that there were many Jiangning troops outside the mansion. They asked Master, you go out to see him, otherwise they would come in!"

"Play..."

At this time, a few gunfires suddenly came from outside. With a few screams, Pan Ruzhen immediately changed. How dare these Jiangning troops be so bold that they actually broke into the governor's office and used firearms. They wanted to...

A worst result surged into Pan Ruzhen's heart.

"Quick...get in!"

"Where is Pan Ruzhen? Take us there!"

With a few screams, the footsteps became closer and closer to his study. Soon an officer rushed to the study with a team of Jiangning troops and surrounded the study.

Pan Ruzhen trembled to the oncoming Jiang Ningjun: "Are you here to kill me?"

A person who looked like an officer separated everyone and said in a deep voice: "Governor Pan, the lower-ranking official Li Yan, who was ordered by the Duke of the State, came to escort you into Beijing. Now he has offended you so much. Please take Lord Pan away!"

"Let's wait!"

Pan Ruzhen shouted loudly, stared at Li Yan and said, "I know you. You were originally from an official family. You were originally a juren, and you had a bright future. However, because of your sympathy with the bandits, you joined Li Zicheng's command and became his military advisor. Then he surrendered to Yang Feng and became his minion. Now that you dare to arrest me, aren't you afraid of death?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Yan laughed when he heard this: "Mr. Pan, since the Duke of the State dares to do this, he must have been fully prepared and sure. Otherwise, do you think the Duke of the State will escort your provincial governor to Beijing by taking the blame in the world?"

"Are you fully prepared?"

Pan Ruzhen was startled at first, but he didn't know whether what Li Yan said was true or false, and he muttered in his heart.

"Could Yang Feng already know what I have done over the years?"

Thinking of this, Pan Ruzhen suddenly thought of the things in his study, and suddenly became anxious. He suddenly turned around and ran towards the study. Although he was over fifty years old this year, his skills were extremely agile.

But the consequence of his doing so was that Li Yan's attention immediately. The two soldiers rushed over and threw him to the ground, pressed his arm tightly, and then tied him up.

Seeing Pan Ruzhen's actions, if Li Yan didn't understand what was going on, he would have been in vain. Soon dozens of soldiers rummaged through boxes and cabinets in Pan Ruzhen's study. For this reason, Li Yan even sent someone to capture several of Pan Ruzhen's concubines and some servants, asking them to take the lead in pointing out where Pan Ruzhen hid things.

"I found it, I found the place where Pan Ruzhen hid things!"
