The next day.

Zhu Biao woke up early. After breakfast, he prepared to go to court.

However, before he could go out, he saw Lan Shenxing running out of the Eastern Palace in neat clothes.

"This kid…when did he become so diligent?”

Zhu Biao was stunned.

One had to know that in the past.

Almost every day, Lan Shenxing slept until the sun was high in the sky.

"Maybe it's because I'm about to start a family."”

"I've finally grown up."

Zhu Biao felt gratified.

……

Lan Shenxing was very anxious. He had a dream last night.

In the dream.

The three Jinyiwei guards fell asleep, and then his potatoes were dug up.

After waking up from his dream, Lan Shenxing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

In order to make himself feel at ease, he got up and went to the house.

The three Brocade Guards were in different positions in the residence, standing straight.

"My lord."

After seeing Lan Shenxing, the three of them bowed.

"No one went in, right?"

Lan Shenxing asked softly.

The three of them shook their heads.

Not to mention that there was no one at night, even if there were people, who would dare to stay any longer when they saw the Embroidered Uniform Guards here?

Moreover, when they blinked last night, they took turns to blink.

Lan Shenxing opened the courtyard door and closed it behind him. He quickly ran to the shed, lifted the curtain, and went in.

The temperature inside was obviously much higher than outside. He glanced at his 'babies' and after making sure that they were safe and sound, his worried heart finally relaxed.

At this moment, the Jinyiwei who were on shift arrived.

The three people on the night shift greeted Lan Shenxing and went home to rest.

A newly appointed Jinyiwei stood outside the courtyard and said loudly,""Milord, this subordinate has something to report.”

"Come in."

Lan Shenxing squatted in the shed.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards entered the courtyard and were stunned when they saw the shed.

He carefully closed the door and stared at the shed with a puzzled expression. After all…this was the first time he had seen something like a shed film.

Could it be a new item that was being offered as tribute from other places?

The Jinyiwei did not ask, because too much curiosity would kill him.

"My lord…"

He held his saber and bowed.

Before he could finish, Lan Shenxing's voice came from the shed,""Go get me half a bucket of water."

“……”

The Brocade Guard was speechless and turned to fetch water.

Very quickly.

The water came.

"Speak, what is it?"

Lan Shenxing carried the water into the shed and watered it carefully with a wooden spoon.

"This subordinate has already found the woman who was about to give birth.”

"How many?"

Lan Shenxing didn't forget to test the temperature of the water when he was watering it.

"Thirteen people."

The Brocade Guard answered truthfully.

"Thirteen people?"

Lan Shenxing was stunned. He could not use so many people, so he asked,"What are their origins?"

"There are farmers, merchants, and officials."

The families of the thirteen who fulfilled the conditions were farmers, merchants, and petty officials.

The Brocade Guards were not stupid. They could not target the wives and concubines of the high officials.

"What about the farmers?"

In the early Ming Dynasty, merchants had the lowest status.

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang hated merchants, so even if something went wrong, Zhu Yuanzhang would not blame them.

"There are still seven people."

Those who could become Embroidered Uniform Guards were all very smart.

This time, when he was looking for people, he specifically chose merchants who were beneficial to him and could reduce his losses to the minimum even if he dug up old scores.

"Are there any profiteers among these seven people?"

Lan Shenxing asked.

"There are three people who are not clean, but…"

The Brocade Guard hesitated.

"Speak!"

Lan Shenxing shouted.

"However, these three people all have backers.”

the Brocade Guard said truthfully.

"Tell me in detail."

Lan Shenxing continued watering the plants.

"The three of them have the support of a seventh rank official. Behind the seventh rank official is a sixth rank official, a sixth rank official, and so on, until…a second rank official.”

The Brocade Guard lowered his head and continued,"If we continue to investigate, we can still find clues. However, during our investigation, the commander gave the order to drop the matter.”

"I see."

Lan Shenxing narrowed his eyes.

Since he knew about this, it was obvious that Zhu Yuanzhang had known about it long ago.

The order to stop the investigation was also issued by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Obviously, Old Zhu already had enough evidence to kill them. The reason why he didn't do anything to them now was because they still had value.

Once this balance of value was disrupted, this group of people…

They would probably all be punished together, leaving no one behind.

"Take control of those three merchants.”

Lan Shenxing ordered.

"How…do I control it?"

The Embroidered Uniform Guards asked.

There were several types of control, such as the most ruthless one: He was arrested and imprisoned.

Once he entered, he would be dead.

"Control them at home and seal their assets. However, you must take good care of those three women who are about to give birth. You can't let them notice anything unusual and affect their mood!”

Lan Shenxing's eyes flickered with a cold light as he said,""Other than that, you have to ensure that they have enough supplements. They have to take it three times in half a month until they give birth!”

"Milord, everything else is fine, but not letting them notice anything strange…I'm afraid it's a little difficult.”

The Embroidered Uniform Guards looked troubled.

The three merchants weren't sent to Zhao Prison, but were controlled at home.

In this way, it was inevitable that they would meet with his wife. Once they met, no one could guarantee…what they would say to each other.

At this time, if the Embroidered Uniform Guards interfered, they would be exposed.

After being exposed, how could it not affect the pregnant woman's mood?

"Tell the three merchants who you are and what they are guilty of. Then tell them that when their wives give birth to their children, no matter what the outcome is, I…will ensure their safety!”

After Lan Shenxing finished watering, he came out of the shed and closed the curtain. He looked at the Brocade Guard and said,"As for how to scare people, I don't need to teach you, right?”

"This subordinate understands."

The Embroidered Uniform Guards bowed.

"Where are the supplements I asked you to buy? Where are we?"

Lan Shenxing squatted in front of the pool and washed his hands with the remaining water.

"It is estimated that they will arrive at Ying Tian tonight.”

The Brocade Guard answered truthfully.

"Let the others handle this. The three of you, guard this place.”

After saying that, Lan Shenxing stood up and walked in front of the Embroidered Uniform Guards."Remember, the things inside are more precious than your life.”

"Your subordinate will not disappoint you."

"You may leave."

The Brocade Guard bowed and left.
