As soon as Zhu Houjin finished speaking, the Brocade Guard immediately pulled the thirteen Imperial Censorates away. The execution ground had already been set up, and they were just waiting for their beheading.
After dealing with these censors, Zhu Houyi continued to ask,""Has Chou Luan been captured?"
"Your Majesty, Chou Luan has been captured by the Azure Dragon in Changping.”
"Right now, Azure Dragon is bringing Chou Luan back to the capital, while the 150,000 strong army is continuing to reinforce Da Tong Prefecture.”
The Commander of the Jinyiwei, Shen Lian, knelt in front of Zhu Houyi and said respectfully.
"There is no time to lose. General Wang, gather another 50,000 cavalrymen and set off for Datong immediately."”
"This subject will obey!"
Wang Shouren bowed respectfully, then turned around and walked out of the court.
At this moment, the aura on his body was completely gone.
The scholarly air on his body had completely receded and was replaced by a cold killing intent.
This killing intent had to be shaved off with the blood of the Tartar cavalry.
Without any hesitation, Wang Shouren rushed to the drill ground, counted the soldiers, and immediately set out for Datong!
……
In Yangxin Palace Hall, Zhu Houxin was reading the memorials submitted by the cabinet.
Those trivial matters would be handled by the cabinet and the others. What Zhu Houjin needed to deal with now was only the military situation in Datong Prefecture.
At this moment, for some reason, the Tartar Anda suddenly retreated. Although Datong Prefecture was in danger, they still held onto their last hope.
Wang Shouren led 50,000 cavalrymen to charge towards Datong Prefecture due to their high mobility.
The 150,000 soldiers and 3,000 Divine Arms Battalion that had set off earlier were galloping towards Datong Prefecture.
It wouldn't take long for Wang Shouren to catch up with these vanguard troops.
At this moment, Shen Lian, the commander of the Jinyiwei, walked to the entrance of Yangxin Palace Hall.
"Your Majesty, the Commander of the Jinyiwei, Shen Lian, requests an audience.”
Cao Zhengchun, who was always by Zhu Houjiu's side, carefully walked to Zhu Houjiu's side and bowed.
"Shen Lian? Let him in."
Zhu Houxin guessed that the matter that he asked Shen Lian to do should have some progress.
"I, Shen Lian, attend Your Majesty."
"No need to be polite. Do you have any leads?"
"Your Majesty, I've found it. Among the Embroidered Uniform Guards, some of the small flags and the general flags had second thoughts.”
As Shen Lian spoke, he passed the secret letter to Zhu Houjin.
"Oh? Who is the source?"
Zhu Houyi raised his eyebrows and took the secret letter from Shen Lian.
"Qian Ning and Wei Bin."
Qian Ning was the Northern Town Secretary of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, assisting in managing the daily affairs of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
As for the Nanzhen Fu Division, it was to assist in the interrogation of the imperial prison, and Shen Lian was also in charge of it.
Wei Bin was the seal eunuch of the Bureau of Rites. After Liu Jin died, he took over.
It seemed that these two people were very restless.
"Your Majesty, according to my investigation, these two have already secretly sided with Yan Song and are members of Yan's faction.”
"The 43 Embroidered Uniform Guards and the 27 eunuchs in the palace on this secret letter belong to the Yan Party.”
Zhu Houjin nodded and said,"I understand. You may leave first."”
Shen Lian bowed and left immediately.
Closing the secret letter, Zhu Houjin felt a headache. The power struggle in the palace was more serious than he had imagined.
At this moment, Cao Zhengchun walked in with a bowl of ginseng soup and gently placed it on Zhu Houjian's dragon table.
"Your Majesty, this is the ginseng soup that this old servant had the imperial kitchen boil. It's getting late. Your Majesty should take care of your dragon body.”
Although they were both eunuchs, Yu Huatian treated himself as an official, while Cao Zhengchun addressed himself as the Emperor's servant.
In Cao Zhengchun's heart, although he was the supervisor of the East Chamber, he was only the emperor's servant.
At least for now, he had placed himself in a very proper position.
"Yes, I know what to do."
Zhu Houjin picked up the ginseng soup and took a sip, but his eyes were sizing up Cao Zhengchun.
If he wanted to get rid of Qian Ning and Wei Bin, the position of the Seal Eunuch would definitely be vacated.
The only eunuch he could trust, other than Yu Huatian, was Cao Zhengchun.
Cao Zhengchun's loyalty was unquestionable, but his desire for power was terrifying.
If he wanted to completely control Cao Zhengchun, he had to beat him up at any time.
Thinking of this, Zhu Houjin put down the ginseng soup and said,""Eunuch Cao, from now on, the East Chamber will cooperate with the Embroidered Uniform Guards to get rid of those restless fellows in the palace.”
After Cao Zhengchun heard this, his face lit up and he said,"This old servant obeys the decree!"
Cao Zhengchun also knew that after getting rid of Wei Bin, the title of Seal Eunuch would most likely fall on him.
However, Zhu Houjie's next sentence made Cao Zhengchun break out in cold sweat.
"There's a problem with the Jinyiwei. I wonder if there's a problem with the barbarians in the East Hall?”
Cao Zhengchun quickly knelt down and said,""Your Majesty, the East Chamber is full of your most loyal servants.”
"This old servant Cao Zhengchun can guarantee with his head that there are absolutely no traitors in the East Chamber!”
"That's for the best. Cooperate with the Jinyiwei and investigate the Yan Gang thoroughly!”
"After this, you will get your share.”
Cao Zhengchun was so scared that his entire body was trembling. He quickly said,"It is this old servant's honor to help Your Majesty solve problems. This old servant does not dare to have any ulterior motives. As long as Your Majesty can let this old servant serve you and be your servant, this old servant is already very satisfied!”
Zhu Houxin nodded in satisfaction."Leave, I am tired."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After leaving Yangxin Palace Hall, Cao Zhengchun realized that his back was drenched in cold sweat.
