Zhu Houzhen had not reacted just now. Jiang Bin lived outside the palace. The palace was on fire, but Jiang Bin had rushed over so quickly with the Brocade Guard. This showed that Jiang Bin was related to the arson in the palace.

At this time, Zhu Houyou had just gained a firm foothold in the court. Originally, he did not have the conditions to fight with Jiang Bin and Yang Tinghe. However, now that Jiang Bin had courted death and set the Heaven Tribute Hall on fire, this gave Zhu Houyou the opportunity to make a move.

Zhu Houzhao was assassinated by Jiang Bin, and many officials in the court knew this. And now, Jiang Bin had actually attacked the new emperor again. This caused Jiang Bin to be alienated by the ministers.

Therefore, now was the best time for Zhu Houjiu to make a move on Jiang Bin. Zhu Houjin could take advantage of Jiang Bin's weakest moment to deliver a fatal blow.

"Emperor, if we attack Jiang Bin now, do we have any chance of winning?”

"No problem. Jiang Bin is courting death now. This is a good opportunity for us to deal with him!”

Zhu Houjin waved his hand and told Lu Bing his idea. Lu Bing agreed with him.

"Emperor, don't worry! Leave the matter of gathering the trusted aides of the Embroidered Uniform Guards to me. This time, we will definitely be able to get rid of Jiang Bin and avenge the late Emperor.”

"Yes!"

After Zhu Houzhen and Lu Bing had finished their plan, they began to prepare nervously.

Jiang Bin, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards during the Zhengde period of Ming Dynasty, was a military strongman who had once served as the commander of the Fourth Bureau. Now, Zhu Houjin was about to start a war with him.

Jiang Bin was extremely powerful during the Zhengde period. At his most glorious time, he controlled all the military power inside and outside the Ming Dynasty. Even Yang Tinghe, an old minister of the four dynasties and commander of hundreds of officials, was polite when he saw Jiang Bin.

However, this little emperor who had just ascended the throne had already raised his butcher knife and aimed it at Jiang Bin's throat.

However, Jiang Bin was still unaware of all of this.

……

The ministers in the court soon heard the news of the fire in the Imperial Palace. After the court session the next day, they all expressed their condolences to the new Emperor.

When everyone saw that the little Emperor was fine, they were relieved. After all, although Zhu Houjin had only been in the capital for a short time, he had already established his prestige among the officials.

The ministers were now very approving of this little Emperor and did not want anything to happen to him. It made Da Ming fall into chaos again.

Jiang Bin followed Zhu Houjin's orders and began to investigate the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute. One had to know that this matter was originally ordered by Jiang Bin. He originally only wanted to scare Zhu Houjin, but who knew that the matter would be so big.

Now that Zhu Houjiu wanted to investigate, Jiang Bin found a few eunuchs to force a confession out of him and gave it to Zhu Houjiu perfunctorily.

Zhu Houzhen even seriously called a few eunuchs to interrogate them, but as for what they found out, Jiang Bin wasn't sure.

However, Jiang Bin was very nervous as Zhu Houxin interrogated him. After all, this little Emperor was so smart. If there was any mistake during the interrogation process and led the trouble to Jiang Bin, then Jiang Bin would be finished.

To Jiang Bin's surprise, Zhu Houjin finished interrogating these eunuchs very quickly. However, after Zhu Houjin finished interrogating the eunuchs, his attitude towards Jiang Bin suddenly became polite.

"Lord Jiang, you've worked hard this time. If it weren't for you, who knows how long it would have taken to solve this arson case!”

"Lord Jiang is outstanding and hardworking. I have really neglected you in the past. I will definitely put you in an important position in the future!”

"Oh!"

Jiang Bin felt that it was very strange. He didn't understand why Zhu Houjin was suddenly so polite to him.

Although Jiang Bin held military power, when it came to brains, he was much worse than Yang Tinghe. At this moment, he didn't feel that anything was wrong. Instead, he felt that Zhu Houzhen was frightened after this incident, which was why he was so respectful to Jiang Bin.

When Jiang Bin first set the fire to scare Zhu Houjin, his goal was to make this little Emperor behave and not become an obstacle for him. Now that Zhu Houzhen was so honest, it was exactly what Jiang Bin wanted.

Seeing Zhu Houjin being so polite to him, Jiang Bin was very pleased with himself. He thought to himself that since the new Emperor did not dare to offend him, then Jiang Bin could continue to lord it over the Great Ming Dynasty in the future.

However, Jiang Bin did not know that this kind-looking little Emperor was not a docile sheep, but a wolf that had been eating people without spitting out the bones.

More importantly, before a jackal made a move, it would never show any intention of attacking. Instead, it would use all means to make its prey lower its guard.

Now, Jiang Bin was Zhu Houjin's prey. Zhu Houjin was currently spreading out a huge net, preparing to capture Jiang Bin in one fell swoop and completely eradicate Jiang Bin's power in the palace.

……

In the Yang Residence in the capital, Yang Tinghe was currently talking to his son, Yang Shen.

This Yang Shen was not a simple person. This person was knowledgeable and was known as the number one scholar of Great Ming. The opening poem of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms," Immortal of Linjiang ", was written by Yang Shen.

This poem was written by the number one scholar, Yang Shen, after he summarized his life experience in the Jiajing Dynasty. There were countless capable people in the Jiajing Dynasty, and Yang Shen was just one of them.

The two scholars behind him were Xie Jin, the one who wrote the Yongle Grand Ceremony, and Xu Wei, the one who was known as the number one advisor of the Ming Dynasty.

Xie Jin had already come to an end in the Ming Dynasty, and Yang Shen was now embroiled in a bloody storm that was about to arrive in court. As for the third scholar, Great Ming's number one advisor, Xu Wei, he was only a newborn baby.

However, Xu Wei was destined to shine in the Jiajing Dynasty and become one of the most important figures in the late Ming Dynasty.

"Father, I feel that ever since the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, the Emperor has changed a little!”

"Haha, why, do you think there's something wrong with the emperor?”

Yang Tinghe intended to let his son take over his position and become the new leader of the officials, so he wanted to train Yang Shen's political skills.

"The emperor was already very calm in the past, but now he has become even more calm, and his shrewdness has become deeper and deeper. I feel that even though the emperor is calm and collected, there is often a murderous aura between his brows!”

"Hehe, not bad, son. Your observation skills are very good!”

Yang Tinghe smiled faintly as his eyes flashed.

"You're right. Our emperor is preparing for a great change in the palace! If I'm not wrong, this little Emperor should make his move within a few days!”
