The system has to be used even if it is pulled

"You are guilty of a capital crime. You deserve to die a thousand times. Take Duke of Liang Li Wei and Lieutenant General Li Meng to prison and hand them over to the Imperial Guards for interrogation."

"Your Majesty! This is against the rules!" Duke Hu and Duke Chen hurried to stop it.

"Not in accordance with the rules? The army mutinied, and this is considered in accordance with the rules? Father kept you here, saying that you are useful people. I handed the entire capital to you, and you betrayed Father's trust and my trust."

Duke Hu and Duke Chen had nothing to say to each other. They could beg for mercy for drawing a salary without doing anything, but they could not really talk about mutiny.

"Jia Mu, listen to my order. Immediately search the Duke of Liang's mansion and arrest Li Meng. The East Factory will immediately seal off the Nine Gates Governor's mansion and work with the Ministry of Justice to thoroughly investigate all the camps under the Nine Gates Governor's command."

Duke Chen and Duke Hu looked at each other, knowing that Zhiyuan's merits were going to be huge.

Originally, since Taizu founded the dynasty, the people who held power over the world were the founding heroes. It was not until the retired emperor went on campaigns that this group of Zhiyuan heroes rose to power and replaced the power in the army. Now, in a few years, the Zhiyuan heroes will be able to completely squeeze out the founding heroes from the army. Who would have thought that this would happen.

I didn't expect that the disabled people of the Jia family are so powerful. This time, the meritorious service of Zhiyuan will be hit by thunder. The Duke of Liang is completely finished. I don't know who the remaining two dukes and seven marquises of the Zhiyuan lineage can implicate.

The dispute lasted for more than a month before it was finally resolved. Li Wei, Duke of Liang, the governor of the Nine Gates, was stripped of his title, exiled to Ningguta, and his property was confiscated. His son, Li Meng, the lieutenant general of the Right Camp of the Nine Gates Governor's Office, was executed immediately. Ma Jun, the general of the Nine Gates Governor's Office, was demoted and fined for three years. He was no longer a general and was transferred to the position of Shaoqing of the Imperial Household Department. His son, Ma Dai, the guerrilla commander of the Left Camp, was fined and no longer a guerrilla commander. He was transferred to the position of Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites. Other officials were either imprisoned, demoted, or transferred. Wang Ziteng, the former governor of the Beijing Camp, temporarily served as the governor of the Nine Gates Governor's Office.

As a result, many positions in the Nine Gates Governor's Office became vacant. Emperor Kang Zheng was very happy and began to place his own people in the Nine Gates Governor's Office.

Now the whole capital city is ours, so we don’t have to sleep in fear anymore.

However, there were too many vacant positions, so Emperor Kang Zheng secretly summoned Zhao Yuanlang and then Wang Ziteng.

It is not so easy to ask Zhao Yuanlang to rely on the influence of Ning and Rong mansions to persuade the descendants of the founding heroes who are full of complaints about the current situation to come out and serve and compete with Zhiyuan in the army for no reason.

At most they will be used by Emperor Kang Zheng for a few times, and then after the new martial arts examinations are held a few times, he will have to find a reason to get rid of them. It is better for them to stay here now.

Zhao Yuanlang could not refuse Emperor Kang Zheng's request, but it was not that easy for them to make Zhao Yuanlang pay without offering a good price.

But when Zhao Yuanlang was returning home after finishing his official business, a servant hurriedly brought news from Lady Jia that there were guests at home.

Zhao Yuanlang then hurried to the Rong Mansion, and when he arrived at Rong Xi Hall, he saw only laughter and joy inside.

"Master Mu from the East Palace is here!"

Grandmother Jia said to the ladies sitting next to Madam Wang who had just left the Buddhist hall, "This is Brother Mu from the East Palace."

Several women sitting with Mrs. Wang stared at Zhao Yuanlang who walked in.

"You've come just in time. I'd like to meet your sisters-in-law. This is your sister-in-law from the Wang family, your two sisters-in-law from the Shi family, and your second sister-in-law's younger sister, the sister-in-law from the Xue family."

"Hello, sisters-in-law." Zhao Yuanlang hunched over and saluted them with his fists clasped.

Everyone returned the greeting with strange expressions. Jia Mu, the great master who caused bloodshed in the capital, turned out to be a cripple.

"This is Xue Pan, Xue Baochai."

Zhao Yuanlang nodded to them, and then the two of them bowed to Zhao Yuanlang: "Hello, uncle."

Zhao Yuanlang casually took out two jades from his body and said, "It's just a little thing. Take it and play with it."

"Thank you, uncle."

"Brother Wang Jiateng, your brothers Shi Jiading and Nai are all in Mengpozhai with the eldest and second oldest brothers. Go over and meet them, and then ask them to come over for dinner."

"Yes, aunt."

In Mengpo Zhai, Jia Zheng showed a painting he had copied from Lai Dajia not long ago to Wang Ziteng, Shi Ding and Shi Nai. Wang Ziteng didn't pay much attention because his mind was full of what the emperor said. If he wanted to transfer the founding heroes later, he had to find Zhao Yuanlang because Zhao Yuanlang was the leader of the younger generation of founding heroes.

"Hello, brothers." Just when Wang Ziteng was full of thoughts, Zhao Yuanlang just walked in.

Jia Zheng watched Zhao Yuanlang come in and smiled slowly, "Brother Mu, I heard that there are many vacancies in the Nine Gates Governor's Office recently. Your brother Teng is temporarily taking over as the Nine Gates Governor. Life is not easy right now, so I want to ask you for help."

Zhao Yuanlang didn't say anything. He just sat on the chair with a frown and took a sip of the tea handed to him by the maid.

Wang Ziteng saw that Zhao Yuanlang was silent: "Brother Mu, the four of us are brothers-in-law, we are one family, we prosper together and we suffer together. Although I am now the governor of the Beijing Camp, you also know that the twelve camps outside the city do not listen to me. There are only three camps in the city, Yangwei, Xianwei and Zhenwei. These three camps also take turns to guard the imperial city and serve as the guard camp. I really have no one under my command."

"The three battalions in my hands are not controlled by Brother Teng. They are under your command for the sake of Your Majesty."

Wang Ziteng took a sip of tea awkwardly, and soon recovered his composure. He sighed and said, "Who says it's not true? After all, my brother is different from you. You inherited the title of Ning Mansion, and you have the influence of Ning and Rong Mansions. The emperor also thinks highly of you and made you the Northern Pacification Envoy of Jinyiwei."

"I understand. The current leader has also told me, but we should be clear about our accounts as brothers. You can ask for the incense from Yu Yin, but you know what I mean."

Wang Ziteng's face suddenly turned pale. He had originally wanted to easily get the remaining influence from the Jia family, but ended up vomiting blood. He couldn't help but look at Zhao Yuanlang deeply.

"Brother Mu, your brother Teng is half our family after all. You are going too far." Jia Zheng said with a frown.

"Is it too much? Not too much, right? In addition to the huge fortune left by our ancestors, the rest are just these blessings and incense. I don't rely on these. I think I will leave Brother She from Rong Mansion to Brother Lian, and I will leave Brother She from Ning Mansion to Baoyu and Lan'er."

As soon as Zhao Yuanlang said this, Jia She's face changed and he looked at Wang Ziteng deeply. Jia Zheng hadn't thought so much about it at first, but after hearing what Zhao Yuanlang said, Jia Zheng was particularly excited and looked at Zhao Yuanlang with satisfaction.

Wang Ziteng knew something bad was going to happen as soon as he saw it.

Shi Ding and Shi Nai were cursing Zhao Yuanlang in their hearts, calling him a little fox. Just two sentences made the prince pay a large price.

"Brother, you also know that my Wang family is not rich." Wang Ziteng said embarrassedly.

"Really? So you asked my second sister-in-law to send several thousand taels to your family?"

Wang Ziteng suppressed his anger and said, "It's borrowed. I will return it to my sister after a while."

"That would be great. Also, what do the two brothers of the Shi family want to do?"

Shi Ding and Shi Nai saw that they had originally wanted to fight for the position of general in the Nine Gates Governor's Office, but seeing Zhao Yuanlang's condition, they might have to pay a heavy price, and it would be difficult for Wang Ziteng to make an offer.

"It's nothing, I just came to see my aunt. After all, as the younger generation, we are here to show our filial piety." Shi Nai said with a smile.

"That's great, let's go eat. Auntie said the food will be ready soon."
