Seeing Huo Du's expression, Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and stopped Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian, who were about to leave with Huo Du. He said indifferently,"What else do you have to say?"
Huo Du hurriedly said,"I really didn't order this matter. I only ordered the person in the middle."”
"Is that so?" Zhu Houzhao asked. Then who is the other party you're stringing?”
Huo Du said," The operation against Great Ming this time is actually a joint effort of two forces. One of them is the Ruyang Mansion of the Da Yuan Empire, and the other is the Zhao Mansion of the Da Jin Empire."”
"The princess of the Yun Nation and Lord Wu Wan were killed on the way. In the beginning, Ruyang Mansion and Zhao Mansion did not know of each other's existence. Later, after learning of their identities and goals, they chose to work together. The fake princess was arranged by Ruyang Mansion, while the fake Wuwan was arranged by Great Jin's Zhao Mansion.”
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not expect that he would know the names of Ruyang Mansion and Zhao Mansion under such circumstances.
Zhu Houzhao had a deep impression of these two princely estates.
As he thought, Zhu Houzhao said lightly,""Is what you said true? What proof do you have?"
Huo Du quickly said," I dare not lie to Emperor Ming. If you don't believe me, I can point out the strongholds of Da Jin and Da Yuan in Yanjing City as a pledge of allegiance. Perhaps we can find some relevant evidence in these strongholds. However, Emperor Ming must promise to let me leave Great Ming."”
Zhu Houzhao pondered for a moment before nodding slightly."Let's take what you said as the truth. What are the strongholds of Dayuan and Big Gold in Yanjing City?”
In fact, Zhu Houzhao had already believed 80% of Huo Du's words. As for the purpose of Da Yuan and Da Jin, it was obvious. They wanted to stir up internal strife in Great Ming so that they could take the opportunity to attack Great Ming.
In the current world, the Great Yuan, Great Ming, Great Song, Great Jin, and Great Sui were the five great empires.
The other four empires all had borders with Great Ming.
Among the five empires, the Dayuan Empire was the most aggressive, followed by the Great Sui Empire.
Great Sui's Emperor Yang Guang was at odds with the aristocratic families and clans. He had attacked Koryo three times, causing Great Sui to suffer heavy losses. The originally strong Great Sui was now too busy to take care of itself internally, so it naturally could not be bothered to target Great Ming.
The Great Song Empire had always been more conservative. It guarded its own land. As long as others did not attack it, it was enough.
The Great Jin Empire was established by stepping on the Song Empire. Although it was the second last of the five empires, its ambition was not small.
This time, it was obvious that the Great Yuan Empire and the Great Jin Empire wanted to take advantage of the unstable situation in the Great Ming Empire to stir up turmoil in the Great Ming Empire and then devour the territory of the Great Ming Empire when they saw the change in the imperial power.
Huo Du said cautiously,"Please promise me first that if I help Great Ming point out the hidden strongholds of Da Jin and Da Yuan in Yanjing City, you will let me leave the Great Ming Empire."”
Zhu Houzhao looked deeply at Huo Du and smiled."I promise you."
" Thank you, Emperor Ming." Huo Du heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Zhu Houzhao.
As for the fate of those people from the Great Jin Empire and the Great Yuan Empire who were hiding in Yanjing City, Huo Du was too lazy to care.
"Imperial Uncle, Divine Marquis, Governor Cao, Governor Yu, the four of you take Prince Huo Du and clean up Yanjing City!" Zhu Houzhao said calmly.”
Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, the four of them were shocked.
With Zhu Houzhao's calm command, countless people in the entire Yan Capital City would die. This purge would be a purge of blood!
"This subject obeys the decree!"
The four of them greeted Zhu Houzhao respectfully at the same time.
Immediately after, Zhu Budian and the other three bowed slightly to Zhu Houzhao before leading Huo Du out of Yangxin Palace Hall and out of the Imperial Palace. Following Huo Du's instructions, they led their subordinates and began to cleanse Yan Jin City!
Following this purge, Yan Jing City was immediately filled with a dense murderous aura. One could smell the faint smell of blood on the streets.
In this purge, there were many officials involved!
These ministers had basically been coerced and bribed by the Dayuan Empire, becoming the spies of the Dayuan Empire in the Ming Empire.
Under the combined efforts of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa, the Divine Constabulary, the East Chamber, and the West Chamber, the spies had nowhere to hide. They were all caught!
Many of the court officials were also extremely nervous.
If only the East and West Chambers acted, there would definitely be people who could not help but jump out.
However, even the Divine Constabulary and the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa were working together. Anyone with a brain would know what they should do at this time.
Therefore, there were no incidents of people breaking into the palace to report.
Two days later, the entire Yanjing City had been completely cleaned up. The spies that the Dayuan Empire had arranged in the capital of the Ming Empire had almost been completely wiped out.
As Huo Du's knowledge of the Dajin Empire's spies was limited, fewer of them were eliminated.
After completing the mission, Zhu Bujue, Zhuge Zhengwo, Cao Zhengchun, and Yu Huatian returned to Yangxin Palace Hall to report to Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the results reported by the few of them and nodded slightly."You did well. I believe that after this incident, the Great Ming Dynasty will be much clearer.”
"Thank you for your praise, Emperor!"
Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Zhu Budian and the other three respectfully greeted him.
"Emperor Ming, look, now that the matter is settled, can we let Little Wang leave Big Ming?" Huo Du asked carefully.”
