Emperor Wanli was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Okay! That's it!"
Liu Haojia said: "Not only that, Long live the Lord wants the two of them to collect all the information about the master meeting! They must have enough information in their hands. With this information, we will have a clear understanding of the master meeting. If you know how to deal with them, you will be more measured!"
Looking at Liu Haojia talking eloquently, Emperor Wanli was not very calm in his heart! At this moment, he suddenly felt that he was not as good as Liu Haojia in everything, and he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged! But then he comforted himself with the reason that no matter how capable he was, he was still his own minister!
But when he thought of what Empress Dowager Li said, he made up his mind to find an opportunity to release Liu Haojia as an official! As for the location, it should be placed closer so that he can give you advice at any time when you have something to do!
But Liu Haojia didn't see the complicated look in Emperor Wanli's eyes. He kept his head down, thinking and adding his own suggestions. Said: "To beat these two people now, we need to make the confessions in our hands solid and detailed so that they can't deny it! Moreover, those who have not been arrested must also be closely monitored to prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry. Once confirmed, They can arrest people without any external communication channels! Then Long Live Master can give them some clues with the confession!"
Then Liu Haojia slowly launched a plan according to his own ideas, while he and Li Song continued to put forward some suggestions to make the plan more perfect.
Twelve days later, Liu Shouyou, who was working in the Beizhen Prefecture, suddenly received a report from his subordinates, saying that there were eunuchs outside to promulgate Emperor Wanli's oral edict. He did not dare to neglect and immediately asked people to invite them in.
After a while, two eunuchs came in. Liu Shouyou stood up and left the table, and said to the leading eunuch: "Does this father-in-law have a long-lived message?"
The eunuch nodded and said: "This slave indeed came according to the instructions of Lord Long Live!"
Liu Shouyou immediately knelt down to listen to the order, and heard the eunuch shout loudly: "I order Liu Shouyou from the Jinyi Guard Command Room to enter the palace immediately and meet the saint in Cining Palace without delay!"
Liu Shouyou loudly agreed and stood up. He took out two small silver fish from his purse and handed them to the two eunuchs. Order?"
The eunuch was very happy after receiving the reward, and said with a smile: "Master Liu, this servant really doesn't know about this! Master Liu, you should hurry up and enter the palace! To be honest, the two of us were temporarily assigned by the superiors Yes, I haven’t even seen the Long Live Lord!”
Liu Shouyou knew that he couldn't get anything out of the mouths of these two eunuchs, so he directly ordered his horses to rush to the palace. Sure enough, the basic entrance of the palace was taken care of, and he came directly to Cining Palace without any obstruction.
He followed the palace maid into the palace and entered the main hall, where he saw Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Wanli talking about something. The few serving palace attendants stood far away.
Liu Shouyou saw Emperor Wanli turning his head and looked over, and hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage. When he finished praying and was about to get up, he didn't hear the order to get up as usual, which surprised him very much! Fortunately, he lowered the right knee he had just raised in time!
At this moment, a thick pile of confessions fell in front of him! Just listen to Wanli Di Leng's voice saying: "Master Liu, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it after reading these!"
After hearing this, Liu Shou knew that something big had happened when he saw the pile of confessions, otherwise Emperor Wanli would not have shown any mercy to this important minister and asked him to kneel down and reply. So when he picked up the confession, he was still cursing in his heart, wondering which bastard caused the trouble!
He grabbed the confession and read it one by one. The result was that he became more and more frightened, and the more he read, the more frightened he became! A lot of sweat broke out on my forehead very quickly! Beads of sweat flowed down the temples, and there were even drops of sweat dripping on the confession, smearing the fonts and leaving a stain!
After he flipped through several confessions in succession, he stopped reading any more and directly put his head on the ground and said loudly: "I am guilty!"
Then I heard Emperor Wanli roaring loudly: "You are guilty! There are so many spies placed in the palace, and you actually don't care. You still have to wait for me to send people to investigate! Are you still waiting for me to get it?" Pick up your sword and spear and stand on top of the city to defend the imperial city?"
Hearing this, Liu Shouyou began to sweat even faster! But he could only say loudly again: "I am guilty!"
Now he no longer dared to look at Emperor Wanli's face, because it must be extremely terrifying! He could no longer imagine the consequences of this thunderous fury!
Sure enough, after he said "I am guilty", he was met with another roar! Emperor Wanli stopped after a full cup of tea! But this pause was not that the storm had passed as he thought, but that the storm had attacked in another direction!
Emperor Wanli said coldly: "Liu Shouyou, raise your head!"
Liu Shouyou didn't dare to neglect, and immediately straightened up his upper body, and glanced at Emperor Wanli at the same time, but he didn't want to run into Emperor Wanli's eyes that were almost spitting fire! His heart tightened, and he left and lowered his head!
Emperor Wanli looked at Liu Shouyou's face and squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "I ask you, how much do you know about the Lord? Why don't you report it to me?"
When Liu Shouyou heard these words, he felt like a thunderbolt struck his head. He had to lean down again and said tremblingly: "I am guilty!"
Emperor Wanli gritted his teeth and said: "You must be guilty! But I haven't asked you about your guilt yet! Tell me, how much do you know about the Lord?"
At this time, Liu Shouyou could not care about anything else. He could only briefly describe what he knew in his memory. In the end, he even said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother knows clearly. It is not because I concealed it or not reported it, but because of the master's name." It seems exaggerated, but in fact it is just an association of scholars! They are just taking this opportunity to seek some benefits..."
Before he could finish his words, a tea cup lid flew over his head and shattered into pieces in the distance! The sound of the cup lid breaking made Liu Shouyou tremble!
I just heard Emperor Wanli say loudly: "It's just an association of scholars? They have placed spies around me. Is this still an association of scholars? How do you know whether they will poison my food that day, and whether they will take advantage of me?" Did you wipe my neck while sleeping?"
Liu Shouyou was completely speechless at this time, because what the Master Council did was indeed a taboo! It's just a secret association of ministers, but they actually placed people in the palace! From this point of view, it is absolutely not an exaggeration to say that they have rebellious intentions!
