"You want... to kill me? Do you really want to kill me? Why... we are brothers, ten years... He Zhan! Ten years!"

He Zhan opened his eyes suddenly and was awakened by the noise outside.His heart hurt suddenly, and the surrounding air seemed to be pressing towards his atrium, making him unable to breathe.

A servant's voice came from outside the room: "My lord, are you awake?"

"Come in." He Zhan simply put on his clothes, allowed him to come in, and asked, "What happened?"

The boy said: "At night, a group of rioters came from somewhere. Many people ran into the streets and looted wildly. All the shops in the east and west markets were robbed. It was rape and robbery. A fire was set on fire. The soldiers who were on patrol at night had already been killed, and it was already late at night when the government office received the news, and now the streets are full of arrests!"

When He Zhan heard that something serious happened, he quickly put on his robe and went outside.The palace should have heard rumors that this kind of thing happened at the feet of the emperor, and it was still when Jiang Guo's envoy came to visit, so it might be tricky to deal with.

Team after team of soldiers began to search from house to house, looking at the armor and equipment, including the Imperial Forest Army in the palace.

Ning Jin actually sent out the Imperial Forest Army?Wouldn't the defense in the palace be weakened a lot?

His heart was pounding, and an ominous premonition hung over his heart like a thick cloud.He raised the car curtain and looked back. The soaring flames soaked half of the night sky, and for a moment he couldn't tell the difference between dusk and night.

The lights in the palace were brightly lit, and the soldiers delivering messages were faster than sharp arrows, and they flew into the imperial study room like nighthawks.

Tie Xiaoqi and several generals of the Yanbei Army were in the imperial study, and only one civil servant, Fang Yuexiu, was by his side.When He Zhan came, Ning Jin was discussing with them about the civil disturbance, He Zhan didn't let anyone announce it, he just waited outside, and waited for several generals and Fang Yuexiu to leave the palace before He Zhan came to see him.

Ning Jin's complexion was not good. He was immersed in the dim light, as if he had merged with the darkness. Only the small handful of candles illuminated his gloomy face.

He Zhan asked: "How is the situation now?"

"Come to my side."

The eunuch moved a round stool to Ning Jin's side for He Zhan, and Ning Jin ordered the palace people on the left and right to leave together.

He Zhan asked again: "Can you find out where those people came from?"

He suspected that this matter had something to do with Xie Jinghong. Xie Jinghong had just sneaked into the capital, but he didn't dare to tell Ning Jin about Xie Jinghong's coming to Beijing.

He was afraid that his private meeting with Xie Jinghong would make Ning Jin suspicious.

Jin Yuansheng is still alive, and Ning Jin saved his life. If he said that he had nothing to do with He Zhan, even He Zhan himself would not believe it.He Zhan knew that Yang Yingzhao was suspicious of him long ago, but Yang Yingzhao never had conclusive evidence to prove that He Zhan was related to Yang Kun's death, but Jin Yuansheng was a living witness...

"Refugees from Luzhou. When Emperor Jing Zhao was here, he was very tolerant of the people who fled from Luzhou and allowed them to live in the capital. However, they were still foreigners. Most of them lived in poverty in the capital, and many of them became beggars. This time they united a lot of people, most of whom were people suffering from hunger, and planned this civil unrest. I have already sent people to quell it, and I have also summoned the prime minister to take care of the people's comfort."

He Zhan frowned: "Luzhou?" He Zhan was always worried that this civil disturbance was just the beginning of Xie Jinghong's dealing with Ning Jin, even though he was afraid that Ning Jin would be suspicious, he still said: "Xie Jinghong has arrived in Beijing Now, I suspect that this civil disturbance is related to him, the emperor can follow this line to investigate. I am afraid that Xie Jinghong will make other moves, so it is better to transfer the Imperial Forest Army back to the palace as soon as possible."

"I know."

He Zhan raised his eyes and looked at Ning Jin suspiciously.Ning Jin said: "I know you have met him, and I also know that this civil disturbance is related to Xie Jinghong."

"I... don't understand what the emperor means."

"But no matter what, I will trust you."

He Zhan took a deep breath.

"It's just that I'm a little sad." He gradually approached He Zhan's face, "For so many days, my uncle refused to come to see me, and he refused to tell me about Xie Jinghong's coming to Beijing."

"emperor…"

He kissed He Zhan's lips, and slid his fingers into his hair. The kiss went deep until He Zhan's breathing gradually became disordered, and Ning Jin let him go.

"I'm about to kill someone."

Ning Jin let out a long sigh, and a little tiredness gradually appeared between his brows: "He Zhan, do you think I don't believe you, or you don't believe me?"

He Zhan's lips trembled, but he never asked about Jin Yuansheng.

Ning Jin put his forehead half on He Zhan's shoulder, and said just now: "Uncle, can you come to the palace to accompany me more? Only when I see you can I feel at ease."

Before meeting He Zhan, he had nothing and could not keep anything.

"it is good."

Ning Jin smiled, and his lips moved slowly to He Zhan's neck.

More than 200 people participated in this civil rebellion. It was too late when the soldiers and yamen servants went to search and arrest together, and less than [-] people were caught in the end.The city was thrown into extreme panic, and the investigation continued.

Qin Fang was transferred back to Beijing because of Ning Jin's order to retry the Zhongguo Gongfu case, and is now on his way to Beijing.According to He Zhan's intention, Ning Jin re-promoted him to Dali Temple Minister, and returned to Beijing to deal with civil unrest first.

Qin Fangxian's envoy came to Beijing, accompanied by Yang Yingzhao.After hearing from Ning Jin that Qin Fang was demoted to Fuqu County, Yang Yingzhao followed suit.King Lan committed suicide by taking poison in front of Yang Yingzhao. Qin Fang took full responsibility and was demoted.

When the two came back, Yang Yingzhao's eyebrows were sharper than before, and his eyes were sharper than knives.Listening to his subordinates explaining the civil unrest one by one, Yang Yingzhao asked Ning Jin for instructions: "Brother, I have rescued many beggars in the Qingfeng Taoist Temple. Maybe they have some clues. Why don't you let me investigate first."

Qin Fang said: "I will go too."

Yang Yingzhao said: "The situation is urgent. Your Excellency, it is better to follow the line with Xie Jinghong first. When the time comes to catch the evidence of his conspiracy and instigate rebellion, we will have more advantages in facing Jiang Guo's envoy."

Qin Fang nodded: "Okay. This matter must be found out before Jiang Guo's envoy arrives, otherwise they will use this matter to criticize the new emperor, which will only cause turmoil in the court and disturb the people."

The two have worked together for many years, and it seems that they have cultivated a tacit understanding that is difficult for others, and their words and words fit very well.

Ning Jin agreed, ordered Qin Fang to investigate the case, and let Yang Yingzhao continue to lead Tie Xiaoqi to assist Qin Fang.

The spring breeze blew past the wind and approached the pass, and brought Jiang Guo's envoys into the boundary of the imperial city.

Qin Fang and Yang Yingzhao secretly arrested criminals in order to prevent the people from panicking. Many beggars have received the kindness of Qingfeng Taoist Temple, and they even despise some of their "travelers" who committed such serious crimes. However, they have never dared to cooperate with the government for fear of their revenge. , but Qin Fang's words moved up and down, shaking them a little, and Yang Yingzhao was there to ensure that Tie Xiaoqi would protect their safety, the beggar finally loosened his teeth.

More than 200 people who caused the civil disturbance were arrested one by one. Everyone identified one of them as the culprit, but that person did not confess anything.Even though they were severely punished, they never identified Xie Jinghong.

This matter is finally over.

In order to appease the hearts of the people, Ning Jin mobilized the Yanbei Army and Tie Xiaoqi to parade the group of people through the streets together, and posted a notice to spread it all over the world.

The matter came suddenly and subsided quickly. He Zhan walked towards the city wall on behalf of Ning Jin, saying that this matter was deliberately planned by someone with the intention of disturbing the hearts of the people. To give an explanation to the people of the world, the new emperor must lead the call, and the government and the government will work together for the stability of Yasukuni, so that the case can be solved quickly.

The people saw the regent standing on the city wall, with a haggard look on his brows. It can be seen that the court really took the safety of the people at heart, and the panic caused by the rebellion was gradually replaced by a sense of belonging.The principle of the transformation of yin and yang in the old saying is roughly the same.Extreme things will turn against each other, and the full moon will lead to losses. This time, it was handled properly and quickly, and the imperial capital was also a blessing in disguise.

At least the people of the imperial capital will be unanimous this time.

It doesn't matter if you can't find out the final result, whether or not Jiang Guo instigated this rebellion, it is now.

The matter of He Zhan's talent show is no longer the focus, so he has a leisurely time, going to the palace to accompany Ning Jin every day, instead of really doing anything, he just spends time looking for books in the imperial study.Ning Jin had to read the notebooks for a long time, but he would glance at He Zhan from time to time to see that he was still there, so he continued to read the notebooks.The two can spend a day together without talking.

The eunuch brought white fungus soup to moisten the throat, and Ning Jin asked He Zhan first as usual: "Uncle, do you want a bowl?"

He Zhan was indeed a little thirsty. He took the white fungus soup Ning Jin handed over, and while drinking, he caught a glimpse of a page of writing in Ning Jin's hand, and asked suspiciously: "Isn't this written by Ning Ke?"

"He wanted me to see it."

Now He Zhan was even more surprised.In the battle for the throne in the past, Ning Ke couldn't even reach a single corner, and he didn't intend to fight. Ning Jin and Ning Ke rarely met, but even so, Ning Ke definitely didn't like Ning Jin, why... Will his words appear in the imperial study room?

Ning Jin said: "A few days ago, I watched him practice swords. He looked good, so I taught him a few styles. He was still young and eager to learn. That day, he hesitated and asked me to watch him practice calligraphy. I watched him write. It's not bad." Ning Jin moved forward the words Ning Ke practiced, and said, "I practice Zhou characters, restrained and gentle, with a little bit of his own teeth and claws, what do you think?"

He Zhan: "..."

He Zhan didn't know how to explain to Ning Jin that Ning Ke was a child. Even he himself was not sure about Ning Ke, and now he couldn't be sure about Ning Jin either.

Ning Jin is a ruthless person, especially when it comes to family affection, it doesn't make sense...Ning Jin will suddenly take a fancy to Ning Ke.

He Zhan paused for a long time before saying: "Well...he is not young anymore, he will be crowned next year."

Ning Jin said: "This time Jiang Guo's envoy is here, I want him to welcome him, what do you think?"

He Zhan bowed his head and asked for instructions: "I don't quite understand what the emperor means."

"He is a talented person, and he also wants to keep his and Concubine Shu's status in the palace. Why don't I give him this chance? Besides, didn't uncle always like him very much?"

He Zhan: "..." I don't know which eye Ning Jin saw that he liked Ning Ke.

It's just that when Ning Ke asked him about the murder last time, he seemed to have doubts about the people behind him. It can be seen that Ning Ke has begun to face up to his identity and value.He Zhan felt that he could make good use of this opportunity, so he often went to the palace to teach him to read and practice martial arts.

"Your Highness Fourth is your younger brother. It would be a good thing to have relatives serving the emperor."

Ning Jin smiled, tilted his head to look at He Zhan, but didn't speak again.
