Zhu Houcong didn't know whether Guo Xun had the ability to handle this matter, but at the moment Guo Xun had the clearest attitude.

What's more, it's just about dismantling and reorganizing, and it doesn't involve subsequent military training.

There's nothing to talk about about the humerus. Guo Xun is just being sentimental.

Being an emperor is like a goddess. There will never be a shortage of people who want to lick her at the risk of everything.

Among the honorable ministers, many regretted their inactivity in the past few days.

The control of one million two hundred and fifty thousand taels of salary!

Now I'm going to curry favor with Lao Guo and get more kids in.

Zhu Houcong then looked at Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling and said with a smile: "In two days, the royal brother's honor and posthumous title should also be discussed. Shouning Marquis and Jianchang Marquis should pay more attention to the matter of the imperial brother's mausoleum."

"...I must be attentive!"

Although the two brothers were still very uneasy, it was time to make a statement.

It seems that the emperor really did not pursue this matter in order to stabilize his position?

With their IQs, they don't understand the more twists and turns and some hints have been given.

In the heavy rain, after these civil servants and generals left, Zhu Houcong's face turned gloomy again.

When his throne and life are involved, how can it be called a palace fight? This is already a palace coup!

But since everything is safe, as an emperor, there are some things that cannot be done purely based on emotion.

Fortunately, Zhu Houcong is an adult by nature. If he were really a fifteen-year-old child, how would he react when this happened?

It would be nice to kill someone right now, but the consequences would be unpredictable.

What's more, Zhu Houcong really didn't have any solid evidence.

Zhang Zuo, Huang Jin, and Mai Fu all knelt down with tears in their eyes: "Master, I have wronged you. I am incompetent."

Zhang Zuo was guarding Concubine Shao, and Zhang Zuo started to hold his mouth again: "This slave has betrayed His Majesty's grace and failed to keep the palace under guard. He deserves death."

When something like this happened, Zhang Zuo, the most powerful person among the four, had no choice but to bear the responsibility.

There was no clue before the incident, and no clues could be found after the incident. Zhang Zuo really regretted it now, and understood the emperor's foresight in asking him to focus on the palace first.

Zhu Houcong looked at them and suddenly smiled: "Stop talking and get up, Huang Jin. When you ran with me, you were much slower than last night."

After only calling Huang Jin's name, Mai Fu and Zhang Zuo lowered their heads, digging their fingers into the cold floor tiles and trembling.

Huang Jin stood up and wiped his tears: "I only regret that I took a nap last night. I took a nap in the palace and was not found alive in time."

Zhu Houcong said lightly: "Since you are doing such a big thing, how can you be left alive? It's not easy for you to stay on guard for so many days and nights."

This is the difficulty of coming to this palace without any foundation. Who can find it easy?

It had been ten days. Zhu Houcong had slept well, but Zhu Qingping and Huang Jin had never had a good night's sleep.

When the incident happened, Huang Jin had a complete sense of urgency: "It's too late to explain, Your Majesty, come up quickly." Then she ran outside with him on her back and told him what happened.

Although Zhu Houcong could definitely get down and run faster by himself, he could not let such a loyal person lose one of his best postures for meritorious service.

He felt that he was becoming more and more self-cultivated as an emperor.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Houcong looked at Zhang Zuo and Maifu: "It has only been ten days since you entered the palace. I don't blame you this time. But there are problems with the people who have been assigned to work here. Go use Wei Bin and Gu Day , Zhang Yong, Zhang Jin, Wei Lin, they all call over!"

The voice coming out of the emperor's mouth was extremely cold: "Today, there will be a general cleaning in this palace!"



When Yuan Jinsheng left Renshou Palace again to find out the news but did not come back, and a group of eunuchs came to the door of Renshou Palace again, Queen Mother Zhang looked ugly, and Queen Xia's pretty face turned pale.

"What are you doing? Are you going to rebel?"

Empress Dowager Zhang had just walked to the entrance of the main hall of Renshou Palace and opened her mouth to scream angrily when she saw Wei Bin and others walking in. With a smile on his face, he knelt down on the wet ground in the rain that had lightened up a lot: "Old slave, see the Queen Mother, see Queen Xiaojing. "

"Wei Bin, what are you doing?" Queen Mother Zhang's gloomy eyes moved from the door of Renshou Palace to Wei Bin's face, but her voice could not help but tremble.

"Your Majesty, forgive me." Wei Bin kept smiling apologetically, "After the elders, the six ministers and nine ministers, as well as the princes, marquises, uncles, and princes-in-law, went to the Qianqing Palace to investigate the place where the fire started, they unanimously agreed on this matter. It’s not a natural disaster, it’s a man-made disaster.”

As soon as these words came out, Queen Xia's legs suddenly went weak. Fortunately, the palace maid next to her supported her so she didn't fall down, but the palace maid's wrists also kept shaking.

Empress Dowager Zhang's face turned pale now: "Then what are you trying to do by leading people to surround Renshou Palace? The Emperor doubts me? Didn't His Majesty say this was a natural disaster before going to court?"

Queen Xia looked at Queen Mother Zhang with fearful eyes: The emperor said before that the cause of the fire needs to be investigated in detail, but he did not say it was a natural disaster.

But now, the civil and military ministers have always believed that it was a man-made disaster. Doesn't that mean there is conclusive evidence?

Wei Bin grimaced, looking helpless.

Do you have to be so stupid? How can such words be said openly? Can't you see my current attitude?

Something as big as the attempted palace coup happened in the palace. Old people like Wei Bin are now covered in mud. They can only do things to offend people.

Among several people, only Wei Bin can do this well.

Therefore, he immediately said earnestly: "The Queen Mother is too worried. Your Majesty is merciful and has not punished anyone. In the Palace of Qianqing, Your Majesty also gave a banquet to the civil and military ministers, and told the Marquis of Shouning and the Marquis of Jianchang to continue to pay attention to the matter of the late Emperor's mausoleum. It's just that there are thieves in the palace trying to assassinate him, and I don't know how many heartless people are hiding in the palace. Your Majesty is concerned about the safety of the Queen Mother, and is afraid that thieves will cause trouble again in Renshou Palace. Due to emotion and reason, the old slaves must live well. Check the behavior of the eunuchs and maids in the palace over the past few years."

Queen Mother Zhang was shocked and frightened, but now she did not dare to be angry anymore.

Wei Bin specifically mentioned the emperor's instructions to the Marquis of Shouning and the Marquis of Jianchang. What did he mean?

She immediately said with some discussion in her tone: "I don't know anything about this matter, and I was shocked last night!"

"It's all the old slaves who were incompetent in doing things, which shocked the emperor." Wei Bin heard that she wanted to clear up the relationship, so he continued smoothly, "But the emperor was furious. At present, there are twelve prisons, four divisions, and eight bureaus, as well as the female envoy. The Sixth Bureau of the Sixth Division must check loyalty and traitor no matter what. If not, it will not only be difficult for the Holy Emperor, but also for you, Queen Mother, to sleep and eat well, right?"

Zhu Houcong appeased Yang Ting and others by giving him a banquet on the spot without hesitation, saying that it was a man-made disaster. In addition to avoiding the trouble of being called a celestial warning in the future, he wanted to use this incident to completely clean up his internal energy and make Empress Dowager Zhang quiet down from now on.

Now that the emperor was almost deliberately burned to death, what reason could Empress Dowager Zhang give to prevent the emperor from thoroughly investigating the eunuchs and maids in the palace?

It's not like checking Queen Mother Zhang and Queen Xia.

Wei Bin knelt there and said: "Please don't worry about the Queen Mother. I have already selected someone who has been working diligently in the palace for many years to serve the Queen Mother for a few days. If there is no one with evil intentions in Renshou Palace, he will still come back to serve the Queen Mother after checking. No. It’s going to be slow.”

Queen Mother Zhang trembled all over.

Is this under house arrest?

Although he said that everyone should be checked first, can people who were considerate in the past really come back?

"...Yuan Jinsheng has been taken away for examination?" she asked tremblingly.

Wei Bin still knelt respectfully in the rain: "Eunuch Yuan has a heavy responsibility. Naturally, the eunuchs in charge of each palace must prove their innocence before they can continue to work in the palace. Don't worry, Queen Mother. I have been friends with Eunuch Yuan for many years. Yuan This old slave is sure of my father-in-law’s loyalty.”

Queen Mother Zhang's heart sank.

Of course she was sure of Yuan Jinsheng's loyalty.

But Yuan Jinsheng was loyal to the Queen Mother, and how well did old slaves like Wei Bin know Yuan Jinsheng?

Can Yuan Jinsheng really prove his innocence?

Wei Bin did not check anywhere inside or outside Renshou Palace, as if the emperor really believed that the Queen Mother was definitely not involved in this matter, but the eunuchs and maids in the palace had to ask carefully.

Empress Dowager Zhang was not involved in this matter at all. She only felt wronged, but she didn't know how to stop the emperor after it was deemed a "man-made disaster".

Could it be that you didn't let him go even after checking, and you didn't do this in the first place, but you wanted to break up with him?

Doesn’t that mean he wants to kill the king?

Seeing a new group of people inside and outside Renshou Palace, Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Xia suddenly felt that Renshou Palace had become a cold palace.

Biting cold fear spread from every corner of the body.

I'm afraid the emperor didn't do this himself!
