Zhu Youxiao nodded, said nothing more, and continued to stroll around the academy, as if what he had just asked was just a casual question.
However, everyone present knew that His Majesty would not ask such a question casually.
While Zhu Youxiao was strolling, Xu Xianchun had already finished interrogating Chen Zhenglin.
Looking at the testimony in his hand, then at the documents in his hand, Xu Xianchun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's go back and continue to be the transport envoy. I will let you know when I need you. I will submit these things to His Majesty. As for the final outcome, it depends on what His Majesty does."
After hearing this, Chen Zhenglin breathed a sigh of relief.
Apparently, he still had some room for maneuver and hadn't been arrested directly. His Majesty's ambitions this time were far greater; to put it bluntly, they wanted to wipe out all the chaos in Jiangnan.
In this situation, if I cooperate well, I might even receive leniency from His Majesty, which would be a good thing for me.
Chen Zhenglin stood up, bowed to Xu Xianchun and said, "Then please take good care of me, Lord Xu, and speak well of me in front of His Majesty."
Xu Xianchun would never have anything to do with such a person, and now he doesn't even dare to accept money.
The lesson from the last incident was very profound. If it happens again, I will definitely not have the opportunity I have now.
Xu Xianchun then said with a stern face, "Being loyal to His Majesty is more valuable than anything else. Alright, get busy."
"Yes, Lord Xu." Chen Zhenglin stood up with an embarrassed look on his face, but he still turned around and walked out.
After Chen Zhenglin left, Xu Xianchun stood up and breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, the matter was settled. With these things given by Chen Zhenglin and the intelligence from Nanjing, he could start arresting people in Yangzhou.
With extensive experience in handling cases, Xu Xianchun knew that there would be no major problems with this case.
If someone wants to rebel, it is no longer the business of the Jinyiwei, and can be handed over to the Royal New Army to handle.
As for the remaining people, he only needed to arrest them. In a case like this, if he arrested one person, he would definitely be able to catch the whole group.
Now Xu Xianchun has two lines. As long as he reaches in and grabs them, he will definitely be able to bring out a lot.
Xu Xianchun turned and said to his men, "Have someone prepare the carriage. I need to report this to His Majesty immediately."
After hearing this, the subordinate said hesitantly: "Sir, His Majesty is not in Lichunyuan."
After hearing this, Xu Xianchun's face instantly turned dark.
He turned to look at his men and asked, "How do you know His Majesty is not in Lichunyuan? Are our men keeping an eye on His Majesty?"
After hearing this, the subordinates were immediately shocked.
Staring at His Majesty?
Who dares to stare at His Majesty?
The Jinyiwei's duty is not to protect His Majesty. If it's not to protect His Majesty, then you actually tracked His Majesty's whereabouts. Do you want to die?
The subordinate also understood what Xu Xianchun meant and quickly said, "Sir, no. Our people encountered His Majesty on the street taking people out. He said he was going to the Royal Academy."
After hearing this, Xu Xianchun breathed a sigh of relief, but still glared at his men and said, "For something like this, even if you know about it, you have to pretend not to know. Are you a fool?"
"Have someone prepare the carriage immediately. I'm going to see His Majesty. If His Majesty isn't there, I'll wait there. What a waste!"
After being scolded, the subordinate did not dare to neglect it at all and quickly said, "Please wait a moment, sir. I will go right away."
After saying that, he turned around and ran outside.
Looking at the backs of his men as they left, Xu Xianchun shook his head helplessly.
After straightening his clothes and picking up the documents on the table, Xu Xianchun turned around and walked out with a serious expression.
Whether His Majesty is here or not is one thing, whether you go or not is another.
Zhu Youxiao didn't know that his own Jinyiwei commander had already rushed to the door to wait for him. Even if he knew, he would not care too much.
Because at this time Zhu Youxiao encountered something more interesting. He never thought that he would encounter such a plot.
This not only did not make Zhu Youxiao feel bored, but made him feel very excited.
Looking at the person standing in front of him, Zhu Youxiao could be sure that this was a rich man.
Judging from his age, he is a rich second-generation. He wears Qingyunfang boots on his feet and Qingyunfang silk scarf on his waist. The jade pendant on his waist is obviously made of top-grade Lantian jade. The folding fan in his hand is obviously made by a famous artist. The hairpin on his head is also obviously the work of a master.
Next to him stood two women, who were obviously twin sisters, both of stunning beauty. He was also accompanied by two servants.
Apart from the lack of guards, this person looked even richer than Zhu Youxiao. This pomp and circumstance alone was even greater than Zhu Youxiao's.
Originally, Zhu Youxiao was very interested in such a person. Who would have thought that this person would actually find him and shamelessly make a request, which made Zhu Youxiao very excited.
I finally have the chance to be the male lead in a amateur novel, and it feels pretty good.
"May I know your name, brother?" Zhu Youxiao asked the man with a smile.
The expression on Zhu Youxiao's face was so bright, his attitude was so amiable, and his whole body was filled with anticipation.
Zhu Youxiao's question stunned the rich young man opposite him.
The reason was very simple. This rich young man had seen many flatterers, but he had never seen someone as sincere as Zhu Youxiao, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
