East of the factory.
Edict prison.
A mournful cry of repentance resounded through the clouds.
"I, Zhao, owe you!"
"I'm not worthy of being a son or a father!”
"Xiao Rou, I'm sorry. Father, Mother, I'm sorry! I've implicated you! I should! I should!"
"I, Zhao Huaiyi, am ashamed of the benevolence of the heavens and earth!”
……
Wynne waved his hand. There was no mercy on his face as he said indifferently,"Slaughterer."
He could understand the Emperor's view of the big picture.
If this group of people was not a typical example, if there were people in the Jianghu who imitated them, how could the Ming Dynasty be stable?
Great Ming only needed one kind of order, and that was the order of imperial power!
If anyone were to obstruct this order, the outcome was self-evident.
No traitor could appear in Da Ming's family. If he did, he would have to be cleaned up violently.
Although Zhao Huaiyi repented, what was the use of the East Chamber if he could solve the problem of right and wrong in the world with just a word of repentance?
……
South Town Fu Department of the Royal Guards.
The East Chamber had just solved a big case, but the Jinyiwei were not bad either.
The royal family of the vassal king trembled when they saw the Brocade Guard.
When had their South Town's Chancellor ever been so glorious?
A few small banners poured tea for the commander of the South Town's Fu Division, Qing Long.
"Second Master, in my opinion, the Emperor's heart is still biased towards our Embroidered Uniform Guards.”
"That's right. This Emperor's Sword is like an existence that the emperor has personally come to.”
"For such a treasure to be lent to Second Master alone, it shows how important Second Master is to the Emperor.”
"Second Master, we would like to admire the Emperor's Sword. Please show mercy.”
"Get lost!" Azure Dragon scolded with a smile. This is the Emperor's reward for me, so why are you admiring it? Don't dirty the Emperor's Sword!”
After scolding a few Embroidered Uniform Guards, Azure Dragon looked at White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
"Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, tell me honestly. Are you unhappy?”
The three of them shook their heads to show that they didn't dare.
Azure Dragon nodded with a solemn expression."Let me tell you, it's best not to harbor any thoughts.”
He recounted the first time he had met Tian Zi a few days ago.
When Azure Dragon finished speaking, White Tiger trio were still shuddering in fear even now.
"Second Master, we understand. The rain and thunder are all due to the king's kindness. In the future, we will definitely go through fire and water for the emperor!”
Azure Dragon nodded and said with a smile,"We don't have the chance to look at the Emperor's Sword, so why don't we secretly touch it?”
Ever since Azure Dragon received this Emperor's Sword from Zhu Youtang, he did not dare to open the scabbard.
Clang!
A piercing sound rang out.
The white tiger plucked a strand of hair from its head.
The hair fell gently and broke into two halves when it touched the Emperor's Sword.
Swoosh!
The four of them were stunned on the spot.
"What a sharp sword!"
The four of them sighed.
However, now that most of the members of the imperial clan had been killed, it was time for Azure Dragon to return the Emperor's Sword to the Emperor.
……
Yangxin Palace Hall.
A huge map and sand table were placed in front of Zhu Youtang's desk.
Zhu Youtang looked at the seven guards west of Jiayu Pass with a dazed expression, and finally fixed his gaze on the Hami guards.
In the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu allowed Wuna to establish a vassal state of Hami, and the Ming court set up Hami Wei here.
Hami Wei had always been an important military town of the Ming Dynasty. It reached Turpan 1,500 miles west and 1,500 miles east to Gansu Province.
Eight hundred miles north to Wala.
This was an important military area established by the Ming court in the northwest corner to serve as a barrier for the inland counties. It was also a self-owned trade area for the Silk Road.
He couldn't lose it! He couldn't lose it!
However, in the first year of Hongzhi, that is, this year, Turpan Aheima sent troops to Hami with lightning speed and occupied Hami Wei.
Zhu Youtang had no time to clean up this military town located west of Jiayu Pass, the barrier of the Tianshan Mountains.
Now, it was time for him to consider.
Ever since Emperor Taizu, this place had been the territory of Great Ming.
But now, my Ming territory has been occupied by the Turpan people.
In other people's hands, it can be thrown away, but in my hands, there is no such reason!
With this thought in mind, Zhu Youtang slowly stretched out his hand and moved his fingers. Finally, he moved to the small red flag of Turpan and drew a circle.
Not only should the Hami Guards enter our Ming territory!
This area! You should also enter my Great Ming territory!
"Your Majesty." "Qinglong, the governor of South Town, requests an audience," Zhang Min said carefully.”
Zhu Youtang gathered his thoughts and said lightly,"Xuan."
After a while.
Azure Dragon walked over.
"Greetings, Emperor."
"Get up," Zhu Youtang waved his hand.
"The imperial clan case was handled well."
In this half a month, as the Jinyiwei moved out, the imperial clan members wrote letters one after another, requesting Zhu Youtang to eliminate the vassal state.
All the memorials were suppressed by Zhu Youtang and had yet to be approved by the cabinet.
"It's my honor to be on duty for the Emperor." Azure Dragon hurriedly cupped his fists.”
He lowered his head and held the Emperor's Sword above his head with both hands.
Zhu Youtang casually took it and swung it back. He hung it on the hook on the couch.
Azure Dragon gulped.
The Emperor had also learned martial arts?
That seemingly casual throw earlier had actually stunned the Azure Dragon. This required not only skill, but also extremely strong control and ingenious strength.
Ordinary people would never be able to do it!
"Zhang Min, go to the Fireware Supervisor and get a sword.”
"This sword isn't as sharp as the Emperor's Sword.”
Zhu Youtang threw it to the green dragon.
"You may leave. Go to the inner court and call the Third Pavilion Elder, Minister of War, and Assistant Minister of War to see me.”
Azure Dragon felt a warmth in his heart. He respectfully picked up his sword and hung it above his head. Then, he walked out of Yangxin Hall step by step.
Out of the palace behind Yangxin Hall.
The Azure Dragon shed tears of gratitude and kowtowed deeply to Yangxin Palace Hall.
Zhu Youtang played his politics to the death.
This seemingly insignificant reward was able to make this group of people use it wholeheartedly.
……
The Cabinet.
The sudden appearance of the commander of the South Town Military Bureau with his sword gave the Third Pavilion Elder quite a fright.
The three of them had something fishy in their hearts. Although they were not greedy, they had received gifts from their colleagues.
"Grand Secretary Liu, Grand Secretary Xie, Grand Secretary Li, the Emperor has asked you to bring the Minister of War and Assistant Minister of War into the palace for an audience.”
The three of them heaved a sigh of relief.
They did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly said,"Alright!”
The three of them went to the Ministry of War and led the Minister of War Ma Wensheng and Assistant Minister Wang Qiong straight to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
He didn't know why the emperor summoned him.
