In an instant, the entire hall became silent, and even the old man who was yelling aggressively just now that he could not change the ancestral system was like a cock being strangled by the neck, completely stunned by Situ Meng's iron-blooded approach .

All the people present were stunned. They never expected that the emperor, who has always been gentle, would seem to have completely changed himself in the blink of an eye, allowing Situ Meng to act recklessly, and what Situ Meng did was even more unexpected. What they expected was that he would directly search the mansions of officials without making a sound. Even if he had done this before, it was only limited to one or two people and he also presented real evidence in the court.

At this moment, the toughness shown by the emperor and Situ Meng completely dumbfounded those aristocrats. They have always been self-righteous, always thinking that the emperor is the emperor's answer, a weak and easy-to-control monarch, and it is only now that they have figured it out. A lot of unreasonable places before, I was in a cold sweat for a while, and my heart was terrified.

Situ Meng didn't want to talk nonsense with them at all, because there were more important things waiting for him to do later. After all, as soon as the emperor's imperial decree came out, it was almost imminent that the king of Nan'an and the king of Xining raised their flags to rebel.

Although, the emperor has already deployed a large number of soldiers and horses outside their two fiefdoms, and even communicated with Korea, Qianxiang and other countries in advance.However, between countries, interests are always paramount. The reason why they agreed was because they were optimistic about the Dayong court.

However, once the Dayong court showed any disadvantages and decline in this war, they would definitely turn against the two kings with different surnames immediately, and pounce on them like sharks smelling blood Devoured.

"Although our imperial court is full of talents, it's a pity that there are always some people who feel that they have been overqualified, and then hook up with those crooks, betray important news about the imperial court, and become shameful traitors. For such people Brother Huang was magnanimous and gave them chances again and again.

It's a pity that they don't know how to cherish and are greedy, so they all turned to their new masters!I, Situ Meng, have a blind eye, so, my lords, I am offended!Come, arrest all those spies and traitors, leave no one behind! "

Situ Meng said coldly, after that, a lot of guards suddenly poured in outside the hall, not only took down all the officials who had taken refuge with the king of different surnames, but also did not let go of some aristocrats who secretly made friends with the king of different surnames. It even includes the emperor's aunt's husband, Li Guogong.

"Your Majesty, I am wronged! I am wronged! The old minister is absolutely loyal to the court! Moreover, the old minister married the younger sister of the former emperor, so he is considered a member of the clan, so how could he be against those kings with different surnames! Please also check carefully, Your Majesty. Ah! Prince Zhongshun, he is using his power for personal gain, taking personal revenge!

It's just because both the minister and the princess felt that the girl from the Lin family was not worthy of marrying into the royal family, Prince Zhongshun charged the minister with the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason!The emperor's lesson!All the clan princes must make decisions for the veterans! " Li Guogong's old and shrill voice suddenly sounded in the hall.

Because of the large number of people arrested by the guards, the whole hall was in chaos for a while. After Li Guogong yelled loudly, many royal family members all looked at him.

After all, they originally thought that with their status as royal family members, they would not be the target of Situ Meng's arrest anyway, but they didn't expect that he would actually speak directly to Hachiko without showing any affection. Right now the most prominent Duke of the Kingdom of Li has taken action, and for a while he was in a state of unrest, and even felt a little bit sad.

Prince Xun, who had the best relationship with Li Guogong in the clan, was himself a grumpy man, and he was the first to jump out and protest to the emperor.

It's a pity that before the emperor could reply, Situ Meng had already stepped in front of Prince Xun, with slightly curved eyebrows and raised lips, he asked solemnly:

"Uncle Xun Wang, I don't know what is the relationship between you and Nali Guogong? How much do you know about him? If you think that colluding with a king of a different surname to sell private salt and selling salt and iron to the Huns is not a serious crime, That's okay too.

I just don't know, the little concubine he gave you before seems to be the most favored side concubine of your palace now, do you know her origin?Hehe, she is actually not a petty official and concubine who is not favored at home at all, but an espionage agent carefully cultivated by the king of Xining County!

Moreover, just because of your ignorance and inaction, do you know how much court secrets and royal privacy that woman got from you?Uncle Huang, before trying to make money for others, you should first think about your own affairs!Don't be foolish enough to be used as a gun and still know nothing about it!

How did your eldest son, who was always physically strong and was about to grow up, lose his life because of an inexplicable typhoid fever?How did your favorite clever little son fall into the water and die?How did you get farther and farther away from the princess who came from a wealthy family, and even hated each other?Don't you feel any of this? "

Situ Meng's words were like a sharp knife, piercing into the heart of Lord Xun, making him speechless for a while, panting for a long time, before blowing his beard and staring at Situ Meng, wishing he could eat him, and roared angrily:

"You are talking nonsense and spitting blood! You say Xiaowan is a spy? What evidence do you have? This is absolutely impossible! She is just a delicate little girl who treats people kindly and has a gentle personality. Why do you all have to follow me?" She is not in the past!

She doesn't even go out of the gate of the palace on weekdays, and she doesn't get in touch with outsiders at all!She has always been bullied by the princess and has no power to fight back. If it were not for the protection of the king, she would have died in the hands of the princess. Such a little girl who needs protection, you actually called her a spy and killed her Son of the king, how is this possible, it is simply nonsense! "

"Hmph! It doesn't matter if it's a spy. My subordinates are already in your mansion. A large number of letters to contact the Xining County Wang's mansion were found in the room of your good concubine. We also captured all the errand runners who sent the news to the king of Xining County.

Since the prince wants to know so much, let's go to the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to attend the trial together!Look at the true face of your concubine!Come on, please come over with me, my lord! "

After Situ Meng finished speaking, he waved his hand towards the guards, and two people came over in an instant, and they set up Prince Xun and walked out quickly without any explanation.

After completely clearing out the spies of the palaces of different surnames in the imperial court, and those officials who had been confirmed to have secretly connected with them and given them some support, they were all arrested by Situ Meng for a while, and then he respectfully saluted the emperor. With the approval of the emperor, he quickly led the people away.

This is what Situ Meng had discussed with the emperor a long time ago. Afterwards, all the affairs in the court were handed over to the emperor, and Situ Meng threw all the captured human rights into the prison of the Ministry of punishment, and handed them over to the Death Squad. During the inquiry and trial, I didn't stay in the capital for a second, and rushed towards the fief of Dongping County King.

Although Lin Tian sent back a note saying that everything was safe, Situ Meng felt that the situation was not good and serious through the letter, so after careful discussion with the emperor, he resolved all the unstable factors in the capital. Finally, he went straight to Lin Tian without stopping for a minute.

In the Prince's Mansion of Nan'an County, the old prince is sitting alone in his study and playing Go with himself, thinking constantly in his heart.

Ever since the news about Empress Dowager Bintian came out, the entire capital city seemed to be completely sealed off, there was no sign of trouble, and the news that came out was that everything was normal!However, this kind of calm was so unreal in his eyes, as if it foreshadowed the calm before the storm.

The last piece of useful news he got was that the emperor detained all the officials and wives in the palace to cry for the empress dowager. Although it was a bit abrupt, it was not too much. Working hard, being able to rest directly in the palace without running back and forth is a good thing for officials and those wives, and it is also a reward from the emperor.

"What kind of medicine is sold in Situ Qing's kid's gourd? I always feel that this matter is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface! Could it be that he has seen through our purpose? Knowing that we are preparing to raise troops? No, this Impossible! Absolutely impossible, I have never told anyone about this except Da'er!"

The king of Nan'an County thought about it, and involuntarily squeezed the black chess piece in his hand, and said to himself: "Whether Situ Qing has discovered any clues or not, the matter of raising troops is imminent, and the arrow is on the string and has to be launched!

It doesn't matter if there is no way to destroy the relationship between their brothers this time. After all, the three kings with different surnames plus the King of the Huns, the Kingdom of Korea, the Kingdom of Qianxiang, and the Kingdom of Wa launched an attack at the same time. Even if they were prepared, they would not be able to deal with it. I won the game for sure!

It's a pity that I can only occupy one-third of this great country, one-third!I am so unwilling!I have carefully planned for decades, put in so much painstaking effort, combined vertically and horizontally, and contacted various forces, but in the end it only accounted for one-third of it!snort! "

The King of Nan'an angrily overturned the entire chessboard, and then restrained all his anger, and he still became that gentle and elegant county prince.

The same thing is happening in Xining County King's Mansion, but it's different from Nan'an County King who only trusts himself in everything, and completes all planning and design secretly by himself.The king of Xining County prefers to work together, especially at the critical moment when the army is about to rise. He is even more anxious about all his trusted cronies and heirs. In the huge hall, more than [-] people gathered in a short time.

"See Your Majesty!"

"See Father!"

"Hehe, fifth younger brother, my lords, this title has to be changed now. From now on, I have to call him the emperor, my father!" said the eldest son of the Prince of Xining with a smile on his face.

"What the crown prince said is right! Bah, bah, bah, this subordinate is wrong, but the crown prince is right! See the emperor! Long live my emperor!"

In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall was warm, and everyone was flushed with excitement.

"Hehe, all the gentlemen are flat!" Xining County Dynasty waved his hands to all the confidantes who were kneeling on the ground, fully waving the emperor's sway.

"Father, it's already been decided? When are we going to do it?" the youngest son of the Prince of Xining asked impatiently.

"Don't be in a hurry, how can I give Situ Qing a chance to fulfill his filial piety? Hahaha... After seven days, after the first seven days, we will act!" Xining County King said decisively.
