After the banquet is over, officials from confidential departments, such as the cabinet, the Sixth Ministry, and other departments outside the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, can seal the seal.

All yamen in the capital can only be sealed after Zhengdan day.

For local government offices that are not confidential, there is a total of 21 days of sealing period from the 21st of the twelfth lunar month to the Lantern Festival.

The so-called seal means to put away the official's seal and block it, which is the vacation that all 996 people dream of.

Officials can celebrate the New Year with the people before the Lantern Festival.

The people pay more attention to the Zhengdan and the New Year.

There is a saying: "When I look back, I am one year older and the children are clapping their hands, happy to meet the New Year again."

They spend the New Year in various ways, killing pigs and sheep, setting off firecrackers and fireworks, and taking to the streets to congratulate each other on the New Year.

Children can also eat things that are difficult to eat on weekdays during these times.

For example, Liaodong is a military town, and people often celebrate the New Year, but the government does not have the power to seal it. BIquGe.biz

In the governor's Yamen.

Tuoyi Mo was kneeling down, while Sun Xiang and Shi Heng were sitting on both sides.

"Tell me, was Dong Shan responsible for the Chengnan murder?" Sun Xiang looked at Tuo Yimo and said.

"I am Tuoyi Mo, the son of Shi Dongshan, the commander of Jianzhou Zuoweidu. You have no right to judge me. I want to see Governor Li."

Shi Heng sneered twice: "What, go to see him down there?"

After Li Chun was brought back to the capital, before the three divisions had finalized the case, he was so frightened that he was afraid of being tortured by swords and axes. He did not eat or drink in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and starved to death.

These things have already spread to Liaodong.

"What do you mean?" Tuoyimo asked. The bruises on his face had not faded, and the pain on his body was also the same, but he knew that he could not give Amma away. The life of the whole clan and his own life In comparison, I can only be considered insignificant.

Just sacrifice your life for the sake of the ethnic group and sacrifice your life for Amma.

"Li Chun is dead. He is our current governor of Liaodong. If you tell the truth, I can make you suffer less. If you can listen to this general and make contributions, this general will keep your life for you." , but if you are being mean, I will kill you immediately."

Tuo Yimo didn't believe it when he heard that Li Chun was dead.

How could the governor, the largest official among the Han people in Liaodong, die just because he wanted to?

Did he die of illness? Some time ago, I saw that he looked quite good. How could he suddenly die of illness?

Of course Tuoyi Mo couldn't have imagined that Li Chun had starved to death.

Tuo Yimo looked at Sun Xiang, is this the biggest official in Liaodong now?

He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty the Governor, Your Majesty the Governor, this was done by the various ministries in Haixi and has nothing to do with our Jurchens in Jianzhou."

"Bullshit, if the Haixi Jurchens don't cooperate with you, they dare to run so far and cause trouble for our Ming army. If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you immediately." Shi Biao snorted coldly.

"Everything I said is true. My Amma doesn't know about this at all, and neither does Jianzhou Jurchen."

Sun Xiang looked at Shi Heng and said: "We have so many prisoners in our hands. If we don't miss him, let's kill him."

Shi Heng nodded in agreement.

"Drag it down and chop it down." Shi Heng gave the order to the soldiers on the left and right.

The two soldiers were also unambiguous. They grabbed Tuoyimo one from the left and the other from the right and dragged him outside.

Tuoyi Mo was stunned, was he going to kill himself?

The book says that the Han people have laws, so don’t they need to be judged?

Did you scare me?

When the soldiers immediately dragged Tuo Yimo out of the lobby, Tuo Yimo finally couldn't stand the oppression caused by death.

"I said, I said, general, don't kill me."

After hearing Tuoyi Mo's words, Sun Xiang felt relieved. Although they had many prisoners, they were all at the lowest level. They had been tortured a long time ago and nothing could be asked.

For example, the population of the Jurchen Three Guards in Jianzhou, the location of the camps, and how many soldiers and horses there were. How could the Mao Lian tribe and people in Haixi know these things?

Shi Heng stood up, and then said: "General, I will give you another chance, drag it back."

Then the two soldiers dragged Tuoyimo back.

"Did you do the Chengnan murder?"

"No, Fancha did it." Tuoyi Mo said quickly.

Sun Xiang looked impatient, and when he was about to speak and reprimand, Shi Heng said first, "Are you sure it was Fancha who did it?"

"I'm sure, they took back a lot of things. I was in their camp at the time and I saw it clearly." Tuoyi Mo felt relieved and he believed it.

"How many people are there in the Fancha tribe?" Shi Heng asked.

"Less than five thousand people."

"How many camps are there?"

"Three."

"Among these five thousand people, how many can mount a horse and fight?"

"Less than a thousand, eight hundred, eight hundred people." Tuoyi Mo said quickly.

The Fancha tribe has always been in contention with the Dongshan tribe. Although no large-scale fighting broke out, there were still many small conflicts. If the anger of the Ming army was blamed on Fancha, he would not be able to do it after returning to the tribe. If you are angered by your father, you might even get praise.

Shi Heng nodded: "Everything you said is true."

"Not a single word is false." Tuo Yimo gasped and said quickly.

"Take him down first."

Two soldiers took the order and took Tuo Yimo down.

"The murder in the south of the city was clearly done by Dong Shan. He was lying to us. Why didn't he expose him?" Sun Xiang was a little confused.

Shi Heng sneered: "Fancha tribe and Dongshan tribe have always been at odds with each other. If we send troops to destroy them, Tuoyimo will be very willing to help. When the time comes, we will destroy Fancha tribe and push Tuoyimo out. The survivors of the Cha tribe must hate the Dong Shan tribe very much, and we can grasp the situation of the Dong Shan tribe as early as possible, and even pull out all the camps of the Dong Shan tribe at once."

After listening to Shi Heng's words, Sun Xiang also understood a little bit.

"Does Marquis Wu Yang want to send troops at a certain date?"

"No, they have just experienced a defeat. They are frightened and vigilant. As soon as our army moves, they will be discovered. Wait for a while, and when they feel that our army will not trouble them again, they will take it by surprise. Sending troops will also reduce the casualties of our army."

Sun Xiang didn't know much about military matters and could only follow Shi Heng's arrangements.

In this day of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, everything is filled with joy.

But in a palace, there is no sense of the New Year atmosphere at all.

Zhu Qizhen was sitting in the upper position, and there was an official standing below him. He was Leng Kuang, the local Futai master. His tenure was consistent with the time Zhu Qizhen moved here.

Leng Kuang was someone Yu Qian trusted. He was transferred here to monitor the Supreme Emperor.

As it was the Chinese New Year, Leng Kuang thought of coming over to pay New Year's greetings to the Supreme Emperor.

After Leng Kuang finished his blessing, Zhu Qizhen did not respond.

"Your Majesty, if nothing happens, I will leave first." Leng Kuang said softly.

"No, can you find me a dream master?" Zhu Qizhen said softly.

Leng Kuang was a little hesitant: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, did you say that the master who dreamed of dreams was the interpreter of dreams? I'm telling you the truth. I have read about the interpretation of dreams, and I have also exchanged this knowledge with Xu Youzhen, the censor of Xudu, in the court. If the Supreme Emperor doesn't mind, you can tell us about your dream and let the ministers answer your questions for the Supreme Emperor."

"Do you really know how to dream?"

"How dare a humble minister deceive the emperor? Although he is not a master in this way, he still knows a little bit." How could Leng Kuang know the way of interpreting dreams, but the order he received was not to let anyone know that the Supreme Emperor was in this palace. Of course It is impossible to find a master of dream interpretation for him.

But in the new year, we can't let the Emperor get too angry. After all, he has read poetry and books and has many years of life experience, so he can coax the Emperor without being discovered.

Zhu Qizhen nodded, then stood up, walked outside the door, closed the door, and turned to look at Leng Kuang.

"I told you, you can't spread the word, otherwise I won't let you go." Zhu Qizhen's face turned cold and he said coldly.

Leng Kuang nodded and responded: "The Supreme Emperor can rest assured. Don't dare to spread rumors about the affairs of the Tian Family."

"I don't like this palace very much. Ever since I moved in, I have always been restless and dreamy. Originally, I thought I had just returned from Mongolia and was a little acclimatized, so I didn't treat it as one. It’s okay, but yesterday, I, I had a big nightmare.”

"In my dream, I was welcomed back to the capital by loyal men and enthroned again in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. However, before the enthronement ceremony was over, all the officials who knelt down to me disappeared."

"I was surprised. I came down to search, but there was no one there. I shouted everywhere, but I heard someone calling my name, Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Qizhen, I kept shouting, I turned my head, you Guess what I saw?"

Leng Kuang shook his head. After hearing the words of being welcomed back to the capital by loyal people, Leng Kuang no longer wanted to hear it anymore.

Are they loyal and righteous people? They are treacherous ministers and traitors.

"I saw my father, Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty. I was very excited and wanted to tell my father about my grievances, but he pushed me away and rebuked me, saying that I spoiled the country by favoring eunuchs. I am not worthy of being the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. I retorted that it was disrespectful for my nobles to resist the imperial edict. When I was talking vigorously, someone kicked me from behind. I turned around and saw that it was a fat man. This man was also wearing a dragon robe and was panting. Who do you think it is?"

"Is it Emperor Renzong?" Leng Kuang became interested and asked.

"Yes, that is my grandfather Emperor Renzong. I have never seen him before, but he is indeed very majestic and has a serious face."

"Your Majesty, Emperor Renzong is friendly to others, but I have never heard of the word majesty. I think Emperor Renzong is majestic and serious towards you, Your Majesty." Leng Kuang continued.

Zhu Qizhen did not understand the meaning of Leng Kuang's words and continued: "In this dream, I not only dreamed about my father and grandfather, I also met three other emperors of the Ming Dynasty. One was Emperor Taizu, who was sitting on the dragon throne. Above, he looked at me with an unkind expression. The young emperor standing next to him should be Emperor Jianwen. That Emperor Jianwen was still laughing at me. I was not convinced, so I opened my mouth to refute Emperor Jianwen, and my great-grandfather Emperor Taizong As if he couldn't stand Emperor Jianwen's ridicule or what I said, he came towards me and looked at him as if he wanted to hit me. I jumped and woke up immediately."

"What's the explanation for this dream of mine?"

After listening to this, Leng Kuang said blankly: "It must be the Chinese New Year, and the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty came to visit the Supreme Emperor."

"Maybe they want to take me away..."
