"Don't you feel the Han family's money is hot in your hands? You are an official of His Majesty, and you are taking the Han family's money. How come you are a servant of two masters?" Chen Sihai's tone was full of sarcasm, and his face was full of disdain.

At this time, Chen Tang was speechless and didn't know what he was feeling.

Chen Sihai was too lazy to talk nonsense with Chen Tang and said directly: "Okay, since you came directly to my door, don't go back. Come with me. Let's have a good talk about your business."

"Master Xu," Chen Sihai said, turning to look at Xu Xianchun. "I'll keep Chen Tang here with you for now. I'll get someone here right away to investigate and question him thoroughly. Do you have any free space here?"

"Of course." Xu Xianchun smiled and nodded, saying, "We have plenty of space here, please feel free to use it, Master Chen."

Chen Sihai nodded and said to the outside: "Two people come in and take Chen Tang away. Let's discuss this properly."

After saying that, Chen Sihai turned around and walked out with his hands behind his back.

Two people came in soon, pulled up Chen Tang, who was lying on the ground, and dragged him outside.

Xu Xianchun saw this scene with a calm expression on his face. He said slowly, "Okay, the commotion is over, it's time to get down to business. Let's arrest people, starting with the Han family. We have plenty of evidence."

Originally, there was a need for hesitation and entanglement, but now there was no need at all. Using Han Guotai to lure out a bunch of people, first Mao Qiangguang, then the eunuch Zhang Wei, and now the Yangzhou prefect Chen Tang, plus the things he had found out before, and the Yangzhou transport envoy Chen Zhenglin, the Han family had no way to escape.

These people have done a lot of bad things and have helped the Han family do a lot of bad things over the years. In this case, with the evidence in their hands, there is no hesitation in taking action against the Han family.

There was no need to wait any longer. So Xu Xianchun ordered: "Make arrangements and have our people get ready."

"Yes, sir." The subordinate agreed and hurried down to pass on the order.

The Jinyiwei can be said to be very familiar with this kind of thing.

The first thing they do is to track the main members of the family. It is crucial not to let anyone in your family run away.

Beyond that, there's also a survey of the family's assets. This thorough investigation is crucial, covering everything from how many assets the family owns, where they're located, how many businesses are involved, and what to do after the seizure. A comprehensive plan must be drawn up. This is how professionalism is key.

Originally, when the Jinyiwei arrived in a place, they would have their own people, so this kind of thing would be easy to do. But Yangzhou was different. Mao Qiangguang had been corrupted and ruined, so the whole city dared not use him, and could only slowly explore on their own.

But there is Lichunyuan in Yangzhou, which is staffed by the best of the Jinyiwei, so there is naturally no problem.

In the Lichun Courtyard, Zhu Youxiao was still enjoying himself.

To be honest, it's not bad these days.

When he was doing things in Shandong, Zhu Youxiao had done it himself, but after the incident in Zhangjiakou, Zhu Youxiao rarely did such things.

The reason is very simple. Most of the subordinates are mature and have a lot of power, so it doesn't matter even if something happens.

If that didn't work, Zhu Youxiao still had the army to quell the rebellion. To put it bluntly, his tolerance for error was now high, so he could let his men do their job freely. Even if they didn't do a good job, it didn't matter. So, it didn't matter.

Zhu Youxiao's main role in this visit to Yangzhou was to stay in charge; if anyone caused trouble, he would also be responsible for suppressing the rebellion. The rest could be left to his subordinates.

After receiving the news from Xu Xianchun, Zhu Youxiao threw the question book to Wei Chao and said, "Just do as it's written here. By the way, tell Xu Xianchun to pay more attention."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Chao quickly agreed and turned around to do his work.

After Wei Chao left, Zhu Youxiao reached out and knocked on the table.

Then someone came over. It was Wei Changsheng, the head of Lichunyuan.

At this time, Wei Changsheng had a respectful smile on his face, mixed with a bit of joy.

Since the emperor arrived in Yangzhou, Wei Changsheng has served him wholeheartedly. Chen Yu'er is now under the emperor's control, and his performance has been very good, so his future is bright.

Wei Changsheng knew that he was about to become successful.

"Go and find Huang Changzong." Zhu Youxiao said after pondering for a moment, without even opening his eyes.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Changsheng agreed and quickly sent someone to make contact.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao was lying on Chen Yuer's thighs, letting Chen Yuer pinch his head very comfortably, and humming from time to time.

Zhu Youxiao reached out and grabbed Chen Yuer and asked, "Do you want to go back to the palace with me?"

After hearing this, Chen Yuer was stunned.

She didn't expect the emperor to ask such a question at this time.

To be honest, she was a little hesitant. If she said that it would be better to go back with the emperor, would the emperor kill her in anger?

But following the emperor back, once you enter the palace, it’s like entering a deep sea!

"I am of humble origin, and I am afraid there will be some criticism if I follow Your Majesty back to the palace." Chen Yu'er said with a subtle expression on her face, and a hint of anticipation in her heart.

"Then if you don't follow me back to the palace, what are you going to do?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Chen Yu'er and asked with a smile.

In fact, although she didn't spend much time with the emperor, no one would think that Chen Yu'er was not the emperor's woman.
