Zhao Zhen touched his forehead, then said to Wang Shouzhong, "Go and ask Zhao Jun to come over as well."

"yes."

Wang Shouzhong went to summon Zhao Jun.

A moment later, Lu Yijian and others came in and saluted Zhao Zhen first, who asked them to sit down.

In the Chongde Hall, Zhao Zhen sat high in the main seat.

Below, all the gentlemen please sit on the chairs on the left and right sides.

After everyone sat down, Vice Prime Minister Song Shou said, "Your Majesty, Zhao Jun has surrounded the entire Kaifeng Prefecture. I'm afraid the news has spread throughout Bianliang."

Zhao Zhen held his forehead and said, "I already know about this matter."

"Your Majesty, what Zhao Jun has done this time is too serious. He wants to arrest everyone in Kaifeng Prefecture."

"I'm afraid that tomorrow morning, oh no, I'm afraid that this afternoon, the many censors and censors in the Censorate and the Court of Remonstration will go crazy, and countless memorials will flood into the Council of State."

"Your Majesty, go and persuade Zhao Jun. If this continues, the entire Bianliang will be in panic. Where will the dignity of Kaifeng Prefecture be in the future?"

The other prime ministers all made suggestions to Zhao Zhen, hoping that he could recall Zhao Jun.

The siege of Kaifeng Prefecture had a very bad impact.

It was a slap in the face of Kaifeng Prefecture and even the imperial court.

Zhao Zhen was already feeling a headache, and what the prime ministers said made him even more of a headache. By tomorrow morning, or maybe this afternoon, countless memorials would flood onto the prime ministers and his desk, all impeaching Zhao Jun. What should he do?

"I understand your concerns. Please wait. I have summoned Zhao Jun to explain this matter clearly."

Zhao Zhen hesitated for a moment and said, "But I'm afraid even if he comes, he still won't stop."

"this"

Everyone looked at each other. Having been with Zhao Jun for so long, they naturally knew his temper.

Since they chose to take action, it must be because they were really furious. Zhao Jun would probably scold them again in his rage.

But this incident caused such a big uproar that many yamen runners were killed, Kaifeng Prefecture was surrounded, and more than one hundred officials from the ninth to sixth ranks were arrested.

Among them was a sixth-rank judge who was a Jinshi graduate, which seriously threatened the safety of the scholar-official class.

So they have to come forward.

"Just wait."

When Zhao Zhen saw this scene, he suddenly felt much better.

Because Zhao Jun will definitely come over and scold them later. At least he is firmly on Zhao Jun's side, and it was he who gave Zhao Jun the power to arrest people.

He shouldn't scold me.

Zhao Jun was at the Imperial City Office at that time, very close to the palace, so he arrived not too late.

Only half an hour later, he arrived at Chongde Hall.

After coming in and seeing Lu Yijian and the others, he had probably guessed what was going on. The expression on his face was as cold as ice. He looked at those people as if they were enemies, no longer with the respect he used to have.

"Official!"

After Zhao Jun came in, he bowed politely to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen said, "Please sit down."

"Thank you, sir."

Zhao Jun sat at the end of the table and didn't bother to greet these people.

Lu Yijian and the others looked at each other. Zhao Jun's attitude today was really abnormal. It seemed that he was really angry.

Zhao Zhen said, "My lords, Zhao Jun is here. If you have any questions, please ask."

As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and pretended to take a sip, but in fact he squinted his eyes and looked at everyone, observing the situation on the scene.

The blame has been passed on, let them fight it out and you can just relax and enjoy yourself.

"Ahem."

Seeing that no one was talking, Lu Yijian coughed twice and said, "Jun boy, how could you be so confused?"

"Oh? Am I confused?"

Zhao Jun squinted his eyes at him and said, "I don't know where I got confused. Prime Minister Lu, why don't you tell me?"

Lu Yijian smiled bitterly and said, "Jun, don't be so hasty. I just want to tell you that you acted too impulsively. How could you surround Kaifeng Prefecture and kill people in the Kaifeng government office?"

"oh."

Zhao Jun nodded and asked, "So, I want to ask you all today, are you here to plead for mercy on behalf of Kaifeng Prefecture, or are you here to help me eradicate these cancers?"

This seems to force them to take a stand.

Everyone looked at each other. Wang Zeng coughed and said, "Kaifeng Prefecture does have some stubborn problems, but you should take it slow. Arresting people so suddenly, and arresting hundreds of officials at once, will have a huge impact."

"A few chronic illnesses? Do you think they're just a few chronic illnesses? It seems like you're pleading for them."

Zhao Jun looked around.

Lu Yijian said, "No matter what, this is too rash. You should release him now. Don't be so impulsive."

"Release them?"

Zhao Jun was stunned at first, then burst into laughter and said, "Old Lu, so you were just playing dumb with me. Aren't you just related to the Han and Ma families by marriage? They're your fathers, and why are you so anxious to come and speak for them?"

"Zhao Jun!"

Lu Yijian was furious and said, "Can you please say something nice? Stop cursing!"

"Fuck you, I'm going to do this."

Zhao Jun slammed the table and stood up, glaring at them. "Stop pretending to be nice to me. I don't believe you guys are behind this. Do you know how many people Kaifeng Prefecture harms every year by colluding with those beasts from Wuyou Cave and Ghost Fanlou? Do you know how they treat those poor people?"

"Forehead"

Seeing how angry Zhao Jun was, everyone looked at each other in confusion.

This was the first time Zhao Jun got so angry since his eyesight was restored. What happened to him that made him so angry?
