Everyone knew.
When the two armies faced off, the most taboo thing was that someone would mess up.
The battle had yet to start when the capital camp was in chaos.
It was likely that these veterans had not experienced war for many years and had long forgotten how to kill enemies and fight.
At this moment, Guard General Miao was so depressed that he wanted to curse!
This group of idiots, there were so many people, but they were actually scared by thousands of people and turned around to run.
Most importantly, do you think you can outrun a cavalry with your two legs?
As for Qi Jiguang, he didn't care what Guard General Miao thought. He naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
Qi Jiguang took the lead and was extremely valiant. He led the soldiers like a sharp blade and charged straight into the capital camp!
In the end.
One could imagine!
…The
palace.
The new Imperial Physician Ling was nervously applying the Golden Wound Medicine on Zhao Zheng's wound.
Actually…
Zhao Zheng's injuries weren't serious at all.
Feng Xiao was Feng Zhong's foster son. He was not only a genius in martial arts, but he was also an outstanding existence among his peers. Naturally, he knew how to fight.
If Zhao Zheng hadn't deliberately requested for her to act well, she wouldn't have been injured.
The wound on Zhao Zheng's arm was only a superficial wound.
Even if it was not bandaged, it would heal.
However…
Unable to withstand the Empress 'worry, she kept persuading Zhao Zheng to invite the Imperial Physician to take a look.
Zhao Zheng didn't want to argue with the Empress over such a small matter, so he could only comply.
"Reporting to the emperor, the injury is not serious and there is no big problem. As long as you pay more attention, move less, and touch less water, you will recover in two or three days.”
This new imperial physician was called Zhou Yanxing. He was personally selected by Zhao Zheng from the group of imperial physicians.
He chose Zhou Yanxing as the Imperial Physician (Chief of the Imperial Academy of Medicine) not because he could bring back the dead with his magical hands or his medical skills were brilliant, but because this guy's loyalty was quite good, reaching 64%.
Such loyalty was nothing compared to Feng Zhong.
But among the imperial physicians, he was already the best.
Zhao Zheng felt that loyalty was the most important thing when the imperial family selected imperial physicians, followed by medical skills!
Otherwise, if you are not loyal enough, you might be poisoned!
Zhao Zheng was not afraid of poison, but what about the concubines in the harem? He did not want anything to happen to his wives.
Moreover, Zhou Yanxing was not a quack.
His medical skills could even be said to be at the top among the imperial physicians in the Imperial Academy of Medicine.
It was just that when Chen Houren was the Imperial Physician, Zhou Yanxing had always been ostracized by others, which was why her reputation was not prominent.
After the doctor finished bandaging, Zhao Zheng asked him to leave.
At this moment.
It was already evening.
Zhao Zheng had planned so many vicious schemes today…
No!
After experiencing so many things, Zhao Zheng was a little tired.
However, Zhao Zheng could not relax and rest yet.
That was because Qi Jiguang had not sent back any news.
Moreover, taking down Li Yan did not mean that he could rest easy. The aftermath was not easy to deal with.
"Emperor! Emperor! "Good news…"
At this time, Gu Dayou ran over with a pleasant smile on his old face.
"What good news?" Zhao Zheng laughed. Speak!"
"Those people have confessed. I have captured all the remaining members of the Yan Faction!”
Hearing this, Zhao Zheng didn't feel happy. Instead, the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
"How many people are involved?"
Gu Dayou lowered his head and didn't see Zhao Zheng's expression. He reported truthfully,"Your Majesty, you wouldn't know if you didn't investigate. Once you investigate, it'll be shocking. There are too many officials who colluded with Li Yan. There are several second-grade officials. The Minister of War, the Minister of Revenue, the Imperial Censor…I also found that the Right Prime Minister Xu Jie is also a member of the Yan Party…" The more
Gu Dayou spoke, the darker Zhao Zheng's face became!
"Enough!"
"What kind of good news is this?" Zhao Zheng said unhappily.”
Gu Dayou was very surprised when he heard that. He looked up and saw that the Emperor's expression was not very good. He was so scared that he did not dare to make a sound.
Now, Zhao Zheng's imperial aura was getting more and more serious. Even a powerful master like Gu Dayou didn't dare to look at Zhao Zheng directly.
What Gu Dayou couldn't understand was that he had found so much. Logically speaking, it should be a great merit. Why was the Emperor unhappy?
It would be weird if Zhao Zheng was happy!
Because the people involved in the case that Gu Dayou had just mentioned were almost half of the officials in the court.
If Zhao Zheng arrested people according to the list, more than half of the seats in the court would be empty!
Such a result had already affected the operation of the court!!
As the emperor, Zhao Zheng's first consideration was to keep the country running. Only then would he be able to sit firmly on the throne.
Of course.
Zhao Zheng could also be willful and kill all the corrupt officials according to Gu Dayou's list.
It felt good to do this, but the consequences could be very serious. Zhao Zheng had to be careful!
Moreover, if the Yan Faction was really beaten to death, Zhao Zheng dared to say that a new faction would immediately appear in the court and grow stronger.
For example, the purge party led by Yu Qian!
This situation was not what Zhao Zheng wanted to see.
The heart of an emperor was most important in balancing!
He absolutely could not allow the civil officials to be on the same side.
If the civil officials were to unite, they might be able to make the emperor powerless.
Zhao Zheng, who had read the history of China for 2,000 years, understood that if he wanted to be a tyrant who did whatever he wanted, he had to make the people below him not harmonious. It was best if they competed with each other. Only then would he be able to effectively control the imperial power.
Of course.
This competition had to be controlled within a certain range and not affect the government.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng ordered,
"Dayou, go back and sort it out. Arrange all the officials in the Yan Party who are not deeply involved in the case and have the ability to do things into a book and hand it to me.”
Hearing this, Gu Dayou was a little confused.
The Emperor seemed to be planning to release a group of people?
What was going on?
The Emperor's personality changed again?
Gu Dayou couldn't be blamed for being short-sighted. He wasn't in Zhao Zheng's position, so he naturally couldn't understand Zhao Zheng's intentions.
"This old servant obeys the decree!" Gu Dayou quickly said.
"Is there anything else?" Zhao Zheng asked.
Gu Dayou then remembered something and quickly said,"Oh right, Emperor, this old servant has also captured Li Ling, an important figure of the Li thief's family. I really didn't expect that this person would actually disguise himself as a student of the Hongwen Hall and mix in with the students.”
"This old servant heard that this person is called Little Zhuge. Not only is he Li Yan's son, but he is also Li Yan's right-hand man. He is the mastermind behind today's incident. Emperor, this person said that he has a big secret to report to you. Do you want to meet him?”
"See him?" Zhao Zheng asked curiously. Why do I want to see him? What Little Zhuge? The methods he used were all unpresentable schemes and plots. What was the use of keeping such trash? I don't want to hear his secrets either. I'll kill him directly!”
Zhao Zheng was not being arrogant!
Zhao Zheng was the emperor, how could he be seen by the son of a criminal?
He had lost his cool for nothing!
Besides, Zhao Zheng knew about the original novel and knew about Li Ling. This person was indeed smart, but his ability to do big things was very poor. Zhao Zheng did not want to waste his time on him.
The
first chapter.
