"Master Weng, please rest assured. The fuse has been removed from the explosive bag, and it was poured with water several times before entering the palace. There is no danger anymore!"
"Your Majesty, I had no choice but to disobey His Majesty's order and fire. Last night, the mob used bows and arrows to shoot, and many of our soldiers were injured. However, we restrained ourselves and did not fire..."
"But more and more mobs are attacking us. As a last resort, I let the Sambo lead people to lurk over and prepare to fight in close combat to disperse these archers!"
"But I never expected that the bows and arrows were just a cover, and their real killing move was to blow us up alive... The weapons here are proof of that!"
"I can't even stay any longer. There must be a lot of craftsmanship among these mobs. It's hard to tell the identity of the enemy and ourselves late at night, so I can only withdraw without permission!"
"I failed in my mission, so I apologize to Long Live!"
"Humph... Please forgive me? What crime do you have... If it weren't for you, I'm afraid the tigers in this company would have become a hundred unjust souls!"
"You saved the lives of more than a hundred tigers for me. You are guilty of merit! You go down first, and we will talk about the compensation for the wounded later!"
Zai Chun turned around and said to Yixuan, "Uncle Wang! You have always been responsible for the security of the capital. Is it your responsibility for the military gunpowder to be lost to the people? The place is not peaceful. Do you, the nine-door admiral, not even think about it?" Didn’t you say that?”
Yixuan lamented in his heart, knowing that he was going to be stabbed. After dealing with Guiziliu, was he now going to deal with his weak Seven?
That's all, that's all, just take the blame and accept your fate!
Yixuan knelt down to his nephew on the throne, "I have a heavy responsibility, but I am incompetent in doing things, causing chaos in the capital... All the blame lies on me. Please punish me. I really am not capable of taking on this important responsibility. Please give me another excuse." Choose worthy ministers!”
After saying that, he knocked his head to the ground with such a bang that the gold bricks buzzed!
Zai Chun looked at Uncle Qi who had taken the blame and had mixed feelings in his heart. If Yi Xin was removed, and if Yixuan was removed today, then the entire royal family of the Yi generation would no longer be a threat!
The imperial power is once again centralized, and my throne is a little more secure!
But at the critical moment, he hesitated. After all, the seventh uncle didn't make things too difficult for him. He was just a good old man in the conservative party. It would be unbearable to take him away!
Bao Jun and others saw the hesitation in Zai Chun's heart. The military minister exchanged glances with Weng Tonghe, Li Hongzao and others and temporarily unified the front!
Bao Jun stood up and said loudly, "Your Majesty! Prince Chun is not guilty, he just has a past! The local security in the capital is inherently difficult to manage, and the pressure of countless things is on Prince Chun's shoulders!"
"Occasional omissions are inevitable! Your Majesty, for the sake of Prince Chun's diligence, please forgive him once!"
Zai Chun stretched out his hand to ask Yixuan to stand up, "Uncle Wang, get up first. If you have anything to say, stand up and say... I don't want to punish anyone for their sins today, that's for the future!"
"I have to figure out now, how the whole thing happened, and who is the mastermind behind this?"
"My dear friends! Do you want me to be a deaf and blind emperor? Who organized the mob? Who is stirring up dissension inside?"
"Who else brought in the weapons? What are the identities of those detailed craftsmen? Who is behind all this? You must give me the answer!"
"If this dark ghost is not caught, then no one will be able to go home today. Just stay here with me and taste the hardships for you!"
Everyone was stunned, everyone stared at each other and really didn't know what to say. The atmosphere suddenly reached a deadlock!
At this time, a young eunuch walked quickly outside the palace and whispered a few words in the ear of Chief Ermao. Ermao frowned and walked to Zai Chun's side, "Your Majesty... Marshal Zeng can't come. Just now Before I was about to go out, I suddenly coughed violently...I even coughed up blood. I am currently taking medicine..."
"Ah? Let the imperial doctor go and take a look... At this moment, why is the commander..."
Zai Chun still knew what was good and what was good. He was in charge of this Hanchen boss and he really contributed a lot. Without Marshal Zeng sitting in charge, it would not be possible for Guiziliu to be so honest!
The Xishan Army is getting stronger and stronger, and it is necessary to rely on armies of comparable strength to confront each other to ensure the balance in the court!
Originally, he didn’t want to trouble the Marshal who was seriously ill and was recuperating. Zai Chun also knew that the highest preferential treatment for Marshal Zeng at this moment was to let him retire and return to his hometown to recuperate!
But Zai Chun was really reluctant to let the commander-in-chief leave the capital, or he didn't dare to let the commander-in-chief leave the capital. His strength was still a little bit behind, and the chaos in the court was really powerful. He was not 100% sure!
Just looking at this land acquisition incident, Zai Chun's embarrassment has been exposed. He feels that his power has been concentrated a lot, but there are many people who really oppose him, but they are just hiding in the dark!
At this moment, Zaichun urgently needs the experience of the old man, especially the experience of an important minister he trusts. It is a pity that the commander-in-chief collapsed again at this juncture!
He can only face this complicated and chaotic situation by himself. Zai Chun vaguely knows who the mastermind is, but he has no evidence!
Even if there is evidence, he can't trip up the other party. What Zai Chun wants now is the truth. How did the villain behind the scenes carry out this conspiracy? What dirty methods were used? A few pawns!
What Zai Chun wants is to find these pawns and kill them to establish their prestige! Dispel the other party's arrogance and slowly deal with the person behind the scenes!
Who are his pawns? Zai Chun looked at the ministers in the court with eyes like wolves!
Prince Qing Yi Kuang? It's somewhat possible, but can he have such calculation skills?
Prince Li Shiduo? Could it be that his appearance of being a good old man and being timid and fearful of trouble was all false?
Lianxing of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? This thing is not a good thing, it must have something to do with him, but did he run it alone or was he a coercion?
Prince Chun Yixuan? The attitude is a bit ambiguous. Was he actually involved? Or just a cold observer?
Who else? Who else is my opponent? Weng Tonghe and Li Hongzao? There is also a bit of suspicion, because these Confucian disciples inherently hate industrialization!
But it may not be possible for them to use explosives to carry out actual operations, and they do not have the ability to coerce so many bannermen on both sides of the Qinghe River!
After all, it was the Manchus who dared to do this, and it was the high-ranking nobles in the Eight Banners who did it!
Let’s knock the mountain to shake the tiger first! Thinking of this, Zai Chun suddenly clapped his head and said, "Why are you all mute? If we don't catch the mastermind behind the scenes today, you will all starve to death here!"
"Prince Shiduo... the incident happened in your manor. Don't you have an explanation? Your slaves attacked the Ministry of Works officials first, so you cannot escape the blame!"
The prince knelt on the ground with a pop of salute, "Long live! I was wronged! I was wronged... As soon as I heard the news, I asked my son to calm down the matter!"
"Do you see how my son Chenghou was beaten?"
