After hearing what Zhu Youxiao said, Chen Hong knew that the emperor was angry, so he quickly said, "Your Majesty, Chen He and Zhou Yi are here. The King of Lu always takes them with him wherever he goes."
"Let the Jinyiwei arrest the man." Zhu Youxiao said directly.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong nodded quickly, but still said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, what about Prince Lu..."
Speaking of which, Zhu Youxiao was really a bit troubled. He was now certain that Prince Lu was innocent.
Although Prince Lu is very stupid and dumb, all he does all day is ride horses in Zhangtai, write poems, paint and play with women, and knows nothing else, but isn't this what the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty wants?
After two hundred years of being raised, anyone would become useless. What kind of future could you expect from someone who had barely left the palace since birth? What kind of knowledge could he possibly have?
Everyone around him coaxes and deceives him, what can he do?
Zhu Youxiao really couldn't bear to blame Prince Lu for being stupid at this time. But the difficulty was that Prince Lu was too stupid. If he arrested his two subordinates at this time, he didn't know what he would think.
This gave Zhu Youxiao a headache.
But there were only two people who had to be arrested, so Zhu Youxiao didn't hesitate at all.
After a brief pause, Zhu Youxiao said, "Let the Jinyiwei arrest the man, but don't alert Prince Lu. Tomorrow morning, invite Prince Lu to the palace, and I will speak to him personally about this matter."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong agreed quickly, then turned and walked outside, instructing Xu Xianchun to get the person.
Outside, Xu Xianchun was already waiting.
This time, the matter involved the Jinyiwei, so Xu Xianchun came here in person. Although it was not a big deal, for Xu Xianchun, anything related to His Majesty was no small matter.
Xu Xianchun had heard Chen Hong talk about the experience of his predecessor Luo Sigong several times. Xu Xianchun didn't want to make such a mistake. For someone who was obsessed with power, he couldn't put back what he had.
Seeing Chen Hong coming out, Xu Xianchun hurriedly went to greet him with a smile.
"Eunuch Chen, does His Majesty have any instructions?" Xu Xianchun said in a flattering tone.
Chen Hong glanced at Xu Xianchun. He was very satisfied with him. Compared with the previous Luo Sigong, this Xu Xianchun was more to his liking. Because Xu Xianchun was more capable of doing things. While he was ruthless, he was also very diligent in his work.
Unlike Luo Sigong, who is always worried about this and that, he is simply the ancestor of hesitation.
Xu Xianchun doesn't have that much to do. Just give him any task and he will get it done quickly.
"I do have something for you to do." Chen Hong looked at Xu Xianchun and said, "Go and arrest two people, the chief secretary of Prince Lu's palace and the chief eunuch of Prince Lu's palace. One is called Zhou Yi and the other is called Chen He. Remember, arrest them quietly and don't alert anyone. Especially don't alert Prince Lu, understand?"
"Don't worry, sir. This won't be a problem." Xu Xianchun said with a flattering smile, "If you don't have any other instructions, I'll go arrest them right away."
"Go, go." Chen Hong also said with a smile.
After leaving Chen Hong, Xu Xianchun's face darkened.
Xu Xianchun was a gloomy person. He usually didn't smile when it wasn't necessary. There were very few things in the world that could make him laugh.
Xu Xianchun only smiled when he needed to. However, that smile was somewhat fake, not genuine at all. Besides, he had no mood to smile now that he was about to arrest someone. He wanted to make people cry.
Xu Xianchun led the Jinyiwei and quietly sneaked into the residence of Prince Lu without alerting anyone else.
Ever since Prince Lu entered Jining, he has been surrounded by Jinyiwei people. Even the people setting up stalls on the street are from Jinyiwei. It can be said that there are no ordinary people in this alley.
Although no one arranged it, Xu Xianchun still did it. For Xu Xianchun, such an arrangement was nothing more than a waste of manpower and material resources.
If something does go wrong, I can respond promptly; if nothing goes wrong, the loss is nothing more than some manpower and material resources. Once something does go wrong, I will gain a lot.
So when Xu Xianchun arrived, he didn't bring anyone with him, because everyone around him was his people, and the people guarding the door were also his people.
Xu Xianchun sneaked in quietly and quickly reached the door of Zhou Yi's room with his men.
The person who led Xu Xianchun was a minor official from the palace. On the surface, he was a minor official from the palace, but in fact he was a spy arranged by the Jinyiwei.
The man brought Xu Xianchun to Zhou Yi's door and said, "Sir, the residence of Lord Zhou is just ahead. There's something I'm not sure if I should tell you."
Xu Xianchun looked at him, frowned, and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have something to say, fart quickly."
This Jinyiwei spy was in his thirties and looked very elegant. After hearing Xu Xianchun's words, he sighed helplessly and said, "Ever since the Lord sent an order to inquire about who is in charge of the palace, I have felt that there might be something fishy about these two people. So I took the initiative and secretly kept an eye on them."
Xu Xianchun turned his head and looked at him, expressionless, "So what did you hear them say?"
This is obviously a gain, otherwise the spy would not have mentioned this matter, and even took the risk of making a decision on his own. It seems that this matter is not small!
"Your Excellency, I heard the two of them planning to murder His Majesty," the spy said quickly.
