As Yun Zheng finished his words, Yan Li felt dizzy.
Bang!
Yan Li slumped to the ground with a look of fear on his face.
Release the manifesto!
Clear out the emperor’s side!
Yun Zheng is about to raise an army!
"yes!"
Tuohuan obeyed the order loudly.
"Someone come!"
Yun Zheng shouted again, pointing his finger at Yan Li: "Drag this man away and give him thirty lashes! Banish him from Fuzhou! I will make him inform the treacherous officials in the court, so that they can clean their necks and wait for me to take them!"
...
...
"Your Majesty! Spare my life!"
Yan Li panicked, no longer caring about the dignity of the Holy Envoy, and wailed, "This matter has nothing to do with me! I am only here to deliver the order!"
As he spoke, Yan Li tried desperately to wink at Yun Zheng.
Yan Li wanted to cry but had no tears.
He has tipped off everyone!
If Yun Zheng had received his letter, there wouldn’t be so much trouble!
Um?
Seeing Yan Li desperately winking at him, Yun Zheng couldn't help but feel secretly puzzled.
What's going on?
What is this guy looking at me for?
Could it be that this guy has something he wants to talk to me alone?
Yun Zheng was full of doubts. After thinking for a while, he said with a dark face: "Do you think I don't know that you are in the same group with those treacherous villains?"
"My Lord, I really don't have it!"
Yan Li wailed and tried hard to wink at Yun Zheng again.
“Come on!”
Yun Zheng stopped talking and shouted with a dark face: "Take all of them to the prison and interrogate them separately! I want to see which treacherous villains are causing trouble in the court!"
"yes!"
The guards loudly received the order and immediately drew their weapons.
Upon seeing this, the guards drew their weapons and quickly assumed a defensive stance.
"I advise you to lay down your weapons!"
Yun Zheng looked at the group of people coldly, "I know you are just following orders. I just want to know which treacherous people are causing trouble in the court. I don't want to embarrass you! Anyone who dares to resist, don't blame me for being cruel!"
Listening to Yun Zheng's words, the guards looked at each other.
"Dang..."
After hesitating for a moment, someone finally put down his weapon.
These are all Yun Zheng’s personal guards.
Even if they fought desperately, it would be in vain.
With someone taking the lead, the rest becomes much easier.
"Dang, dang..."
People kept laying down their weapons.
In the end, everyone was forced to lay down their weapons and were detained by the swarming guards.
…
"Ah? Did you write that letter?"
"Ah? Did the prince receive the letter?"
In the prison, the two men looked at each other in confusion.
Yun Zheng never expected that the person who tipped him off was Yan Li.
He thought it was Emperor Wen or Mu Shun's man!
Yan Li didn't expect that Yun Zheng actually received the letter.
He has received the letter, why doesn't he find a place to hide!
As long as he couldn't make them find him, nothing would happen!
After a moment, Yun Zheng came back to his senses, "How did you think of secretly informing the king? Aren't you the third brother's confidant?"
Yan Li was slightly stunned, and immediately said flatteringly: "Your Majesty is my hero, and should be respected by all people. I can't bear the stigma of being disloyal and unfilial, so I risked my life to tell you the news!"
"Speak human language!"
Yun Zheng was almost amused by Yan Li.
This eunuch has a quick mind!
Yan Li was slightly embarrassed. She looked at Yun Zheng sheepishly and said with a smile, "I know the power of the prince very well. I am afraid that after receiving the decree, the prince will be furious and kill me. That's why I..."
"You are so smart!"
Yun Zheng burst out laughing.
"My Lord, this matter has nothing to do with me!"
Yan Li looked at Yun Zheng bitterly, "Before I left the city, I didn't know the content of the decree, and this matter has never been discussed in the court! I only know that before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince handed the decree to me, he urgently summoned Xiao Wanchou and Tang Shu. I guess this is probably a trick played by these two people on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Xiao Wanchou?
Tang technique?
Yun Zheng frowned slightly.
That's not right!
Aren’t these two people my father’s men?
Isn’t father’s health starting to improve?
Why would he help the third brother to do such a dirty thing?
Are they trying to convey some message to me, or is the third brother acting on his own?
Such a big matter is not discussed in the court?
It seems that the third brother is wary of someone tipping him off!
But the third brother is still not cautious enough!
If you want to trick him, you should put the will in a box, and have one person hold the box and the other hold the key!
Before seeing himself, no one knew the contents of the box, so naturally no one would tip him off.
"Are you sure it's them two?"
Yun Zheng stared at Yan Li with a cold gaze, "Although you have informed me of the incident, if you do not tell the truth, I will still torture you!"
"I...I'm not sure it's them, I just...suspect!"
Yan Li panicked and began to swear: "If I tell you even a lie, I will be pierced by thousands of arrows and die a miserable death! I will be a eunuch in my next life!"
Oh shit!
Such a poisonous oath?
Being a eunuch in the next life is much worse than being poisoned.
Yun Zheng thought silently for a while, then asked, "How is Father's health?"
Yan Li quickly replied: "Your Majesty's health has improved and he can move freely! However, Your Majesty is not as energetic as before, so he has handed over all government affairs to the Crown Prince. Your Majesty just rests and recuperates, and no longer cares about government affairs..."
Um?
Same as Mu Shun’s secret letter!
Damn it, what the hell are the third brother and the others doing?
However, Yan Li is the third brother's confidant.
Now that he has tipped me off, does it mean that I can place someone next to the third brother?
"The third brother should treat you well, right?"
Yun Zheng looked at Yan Li suspiciously, "You sold out the third brother so easily?"
Hearing Yun Zheng's question, Yan Li's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He was keenly aware that this was a fatal question!
If you don’t answer well, you might lose your life!
Yan Li thought for a moment and replied carefully: "I am a person without fortune and without heirs. All I want is the present glory! It is not that I want to betray the prince, but because I am afraid of angering the prince, I want to live a few more days..."
Listening to Yan Li's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but nodded slightly.
"Aren't you a smart person?"
Yun Zheng smiled, "Then why did you come to me and act like a bully?"
"Your Majesty, swear by the conscience of heaven and earth!"
Yan Li was about to cry, "It's not that I am taking advantage of the power of others, it's because I am the Holy Envoy, I dare not damage the dignity of the court!"
Yan Li felt that he was wronged.
He was just doing what a holy messenger should do!
How could that be taking advantage of the power of the tiger?
You can't ask me to kneel down and convey the order, right?
ah……
this……
Yun Zheng was speechless.
It seems... that's the truth!
Yun Zheng pondered for a moment, then said, "I originally wanted to give you a few dozen lashes, but you tipped me off, so I'm too embarrassed to do it!"
"How about this! I will first detain you in the name of killing you as a sacrifice, and then I will let you go after I have settled the matter between me and the third brother!"
"From now on, you will work for me beside the Third Brother!"
Do things for him?
Yan Li's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly agreed: "It is my blessing to be able to work for you, Your Majesty! I am willing to go through fire and water for you..."
"You don't have to go through fire and water."
Yun Zheng shook his head, "Just help me keep an eye on the movements of the Third Brother!"
“Yes, yes!”
Yan Li smiled apologetically, and the heavy stone in his heart fell to the ground.
Finally, I was spared this beating!
