The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 793 Don't worry

In Prince Ning's mansion, Zhao Yanjue was sitting in the study, thinking about what to do next.

He rushed back to Jing'an non-stop, spent a lot of effort, Zhao Yanjue persuaded a large number of gentry in Jiangxi County, and finally quelled the rumors.

He and the gentry have reached a consensus, even if Fang Hongji came out to identify him personally, no one would believe his statement.

In other words, the reputation of the palace is preserved, and the next thing can be dealt with calmly.

"It's time to clean up the hidden piles in the palace!"

Just as he was thinking about this, an eunuch appeared at the door of the study and said: "I want to report to your son, I have something important to report!"

"Come in!"

Seeing the old eunuch entering the study, Zhao Yanjue asked, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, the guards at the gate have come to report that someone is following us outside the palace!"

"These people are too presumptuous!"

"Order the guards to take him away and interrogate him severely!"

"Yes!"

This was a trivial matter for Zhao Yanjue, and he didn't care about it after dealing with it, and made a plan to clean up the palace in the study.

But only ten minutes later, the eunuch hurried over again.

"Master, the result of the question has been found. Those two people were sent by the governor's yamen!"

"what?"

Hearing this result, Zhao Yanjue was really surprised.

Now that the five counties in the south are respected by Prince Ning's Mansion, and the governor of Jiangxi has surrendered to the Palace, how bold is he to extend his hand to the Palace?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yanjue said sullenly, "Take me with you, and go to the governor's office yourself, and ask Zhou Maosong what he means!"

After Prince Ning's Mansion "came to power", Zhao Yanjue also swelled a lot.

In the past, not to mention fighting against the governor, any censor could clean up Prince Ning's mansion.

"Yes, servant girl, let's go!"

When the eunuch left, Zhao Yanjue's heart was disturbed.

Zhou Maosong is not an idiot, if he dared to send someone to monitor him, it meant that something must have happened.

But Zhao Yanjue had no way of knowing what happened, because the intelligence network of Prince Ning's Mansion had just been established, and the ability to collect information was really lacking.

Of course, thanks to Juan, Zheng and Zhouquan who did a great job, they cleared out the members of the Ningwang family in the army, and prevented the news from being sent back to the greatest extent.

"Prince Ning's Mansion has noticed something, we must make a decision as soon as possible, life and death can be between this thought!"

"Yes, my lord, don't hesitate!"

In the Governor's Yamen, two high-ranking officials stood in the side hall and lobbied the top officials in the chief seat.

Looking at the chief envoy and inspector in front of him, Zhou Maosong stroked his graying beard and said, "Why don't I know the truth!"

"But you two should know that if we make troubles to King Ning, we will exterminate ourselves from all scholars!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Kequan, the procurator, took two steps forward, put his hands on the big case in front of Zhou Maosong, and said, "Master Governor... If we don't do this, we will be classified as traitors by the court. What will happen then?" Do you know the consequences?"

"That King Yong killed tens of thousands of people in the capital. If you and I don't get cleared of the charges, I'm afraid that before Shi Lin scolds, the whole family will lose their heads!"

As the procurator, Zhang Kequan paid close attention to the major cases in the capital, so he knew very well how serious the consequences would be.

The chief envoy, Lu Jingkai, persuaded, "My lord, the three capitals have all defected, and now they are sending troops back to Jing'an. I'm afraid it's just to arrest us!"

"Time doesn't wait. Once Prince Ning's Mansion finds out the clues, and then I don't know what troubles will arise, please make a quick decision!"

Standing up, Zhou Maosong paced back and forth, his mood was similar to that of Xie Xiaofang, and now he was being roasted on the fire.

Seeing that Zhou Maosong was still hesitating, Zhang Kequan stepped forward, grabbed Zhou Maosong's sleeve and said, "My lord, the person we sent to follow has been arrested... we can't wait any longer!"

"My lord!" Lu Jingkai called out, his tone full of expectation.

Staring at the two of them, Zhou Maosong changed his expression, and finally said: "Send troops... to surround Prince Ning's Mansion!"

Hearing this, Zhang Kequan was overjoyed, and immediately replied: "Yes... I will do it for the humble job!"

According to the inspector's yamen, there are hundreds of servants, plus the government office and the capital's yamen they have contacted, it is not a problem to gather more than [-] people.

"Old Lu, go and invite the Chen family, the Li family, and the Sun family..."

Surrounding King Ning's Mansion, if you want to take someone, you have to inform the major families in advance, otherwise it will cause misunderstanding and conflict, which is a very dangerous situation.

These big families in the city, who do not support dozens or hundreds of guardsmen, the government can gather 300 people to surround the palace, and these people can gather [-] or more people to surround the government.

Under Zhou Maosong's arrangement, the procurator, chief envoy, and political envoy went to work separately, while Zhou Maosong, who was staying in the yamen, picked up a pen and paper and started writing.

"Zhou Maosong, the left deputy capital of the Chendu Procuratorate, ordered the governor of Jiangxi Province Zhou Maosong to play..."

Picking up the pen, Zhou Maosong wrote the memorial memorial.

What Zhang Kequan and the others said was very clear in his mind. The reason why he insisted on not letting go just now was that he intended to let these two participate in the decision.

But these two people are really shameless, they just want him to carry the burden alone, that's why there was a "confrontation" just now.

But in the end, Zhou Maosong did not hold on.

The chief envoy and the inspector were of one mind, and he, the governor, was emptied directly. If he didn't follow the two people's wishes, he might die in front of Prince Ning's mansion.

So Zhou Maosong gave in, and he will bear the consequences of everything that happens next.

Now that he has embarked on this path, Zhou Maosong can only do everything he can do step by step.

He only hoped that, for the sake of what he did to Prince Ning's mansion, the court...to be precise, King Yong could forgive him.

……

At Prince Ning's Mansion, a large number of servants rushed to confront the guards of the Palace.

"This is the palace of the king, how dare you be presumptuous!" the guard Baihu scolded angrily.

However, no matter how the guards shouted and provoked, the guards remained silent.

Inside the gate of the palace, Zhao Yanjue's heart began to sink when he saw what was happening before him.

This is not only a major event, but it is very likely to be a bad event, even related to the survival of the palace.

"Could it be...the father died in battle? The front line was defeated?" Zhao Yanjue secretly guessed.

When this conjecture came out, Zhao Yanjue couldn't help but think outside, and his heart became heavier.

Stepping out of the gate, surrounded by a group of guards, Zhao Yanjue called out: "Did Zhou Maosong or Zhang Kequan send you here?"

"Where are they?"

Seeing that everyone was still silent, Zhao Yanjue didn't want to waste time, so he was about to rush outside.

As soon as he moved, the guards immediately surrounded him.

"Master, don't make it difficult for me to wait!" Qianhu, who led the team, said in a deep voice.

Seeing that the other party's attitude is firm, if Zhao Yanjue wants to continue going out, it means that there will be a direct conflict.

There are no more than thirty guards at the gate of the palace, but there are more than 150 guards at the gate. The odds of winning by force are too small.

"You immediately send a message to Zhou Maosong and ask him to come and see me!"

However, no one paid any attention to Zhao Yanjue's words.

The atmosphere at the scene froze immediately, and it would be a waste of time to stay like this, so Zhao Yanjue turned around and entered the palace with a flick of his sleeves.

After the situation just now, Zhao Yanjue felt more clearly that the matter was more serious than he expected.

At this time, he had to calm down even more so that he could make the right decision.

"My lord, something happened outside?"

When Zhao Yanjue sat back in the study, the imperial concubine Liu entered the room with her pregnant belly, followed by a three-year-old baby.

"Why is Aifei here?" Zhao Yanjue forced a smile.

There was so much commotion outside, so Liu Shi was naturally alarmed, so she came here to ask.

Of course, she is a sensible person, and she didn't tell the truth when she saw that her husband was upset by this.

"Yi'er said he misses Daddy, so the concubine brought him here!"

Zhao Yanjue got up immediately, crossed the desk and opened his arms to his son, and the little doll ran over with a smile and babbling.

Picking up his son, Zhao Yanjue looked at his wife and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's nothing serious!"
