Chongzhen glanced at Zhou Wanyan, and Zhou Wanyan said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about your thoughts, just do whatever you should do."

Chongzhen still felt a little sad, after all, he was Zhou Wanyan's father.

But he quickly made up his mind and said, "Cao Huachun, arrest all these people and interrogate them strictly. I will have a result tomorrow morning."

"I obey the order!"

Cao Huachun received the order and went out.

The Marquis of Yongkang Xu Xideng and the Marquis of Zhenyuan Gu Zhaoji were outside the palace gate at this time, and many civil and military officials were there.

It was too simple for Cao Huachun to catch someone.

He took the gangsters from the East Factory out of the palace and saw a group of ministers there.

The ministers had a little affection for Cao Huachun before, after all, they didn't like Wei Zhongxian's old dog like him.

But now when I heard that he had taken over the East Factory, the favorability was shattered and turned into a slag, blown away by the wind, without leaving any left.

When they saw him, the ministers showed a look of vigilance as if they had seen a vicious dog.

Qian Longxi went up the road and hurriedly walked by: "Cao Zhongguan, please be more comfortable and tell your Majesty, let us meet your Majesty."

As he said that, he took out a silver note, which turned out to be fifty taels of silver (about 32,500 yuan) and secretly posted it to Cao Huachun.

With Cao Huachun's approach, he would definitely go in and say a few words. Cao Huachun was a eunuch that the emperor favored, so there was no big problem.

Then everyone will tell the emperor together that he would not restore the Dongchang, otherwise everyone would resign and quit. With the emperor's temper, he would definitely compromise.

But what surprised Qian Longxi was that Cao Huachun did not take the money.

Cao Huachun was very polite, and his tone was gentle: "Old Qian Ge, you will not receive any reward without any merits."

After saying that, he walked towards the ministers and said in a soft voice: "Marquis of Yongkang Xu Xideng, Marquis of Zhenyuan Gu Zhaoji."

Xu Xideng, the Marquis of Yongkang, and Gu Zhaoji, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, raised his head and looked here. He saw Cao Huachun's smiling and kind face in the firelight.

This face is like seeing an old friend I haven't seen for many years, making people unable to get malice at all.

In fact, everyone was not very hostile to Cao Huachun. The main reason was that Dongchang gave everyone too much shadow. Now that Cao Huachun has received the Admiral Seal of Dongchang, everyone naturally took him to Wei Zhongxian's shadow.

What's the situation now?

Now is the situation where the Donglin Party has won a comprehensive victory. From the first year of Chongzhen to the first year of Chongzhen, the court has been conducting continuous investigations.

In the past two years, the affairs of the eunuch party have become a standard for some political speculators to speculate.

As long as you first enter the officialdom and greet Eunuch Wei's ancestors for the 18th generation, you may be favored by the big guys: You have a promising future and a full sense of justice!

Since the Donglin Party has won in an all-round way, everyone is addicted to the so-called moral victory and is so moved that they can't extricate themselves. Of course, they must stop the emperor from doing stupid things.

Xu Xiden, the Marquis of Yongkang: "What's the matter with the official Cao Zhongguan calling me a Marquis?"

"Where is Zhenyuan Hou?"

Gu Zhaoji also stood up and said, "Cao Zhongguan."

"Come on, arrest me."

The two were slightly stunned, obviously not understanding what was going on.

Hou Yongkang shouted: "Why is Cao Zhongguan?"

Other officials also looked over and saw what happened.

Marquis of Zhenyuan Gu Zhaoji said, "Cao Zhongguan, this marquis was the inherited court who was personally awarded the title. Why should you arrest us?"

"By Your Majesty's Imperial Order." Cao Huachun took out Chongzhen's Imperial Order with the emperor's seal on it.

The two were shocked.

"Two marquises, please."

Gu Zhaoji said: "Even Your Majesty, you cannot arrest us without any evidence. There are so many ministers here. How can you convince the public if you arrest people at will!"

The civil servants looked here coldly.

To be honest, the civil servants who have been suffering for ten years look down on these nobles who have been thankful to their ancestors.

But now everyone is all against the reopening of the East Factory, and he is considered a comrade-in-arms on the front line. Qian Longxi, whose big mouth, ran over again: "Cao Zhongguan, is there any misunderstanding?"

"There is no misunderstanding. The two marquises have found out that you have reselled grain to Mao Wenlong, the general of Dongjiang Town, last year and the previous year, and bought several thousand-year-old ginseng from Dongjiang Town."

This private person secretly sells food to the army, which is a serious crime.

This involves military corruption. In the late Ming Dynasty, the military corruption was simply normal, but it was definitely a serious crime.

The two of them changed their expressions, and Gu Zhaoji said, "Cao Zhongguan, how can you swear at others without any evidence?"

"Evidence? Don't worry, our family is not someone who comes out of the air. The evidence has been prepared for both of you." He smiled, still looking very kind on his face, "Catch it!"

Now the ministers around him dare not interfere, because this involves a very sensitive issue. Who dares to say hello?

"Cao Huachun, we want to meet Your Majesty, we want to meet Your Majesty!"

The voices of the two marquises became farther and farther away, and everyone looked at Cao Huachun.

Cao Huachun said: "I'm sorry, my sirs, our family has to go to Zhou Guozhu's mansion now."

"Zhou Guozhu? So what's wrong with him?" Qian Longxi was still asking, looking curious, like a primary school student listening carefully.

"He is also one of his co-conspirators."

Everyone was shocked again.

That's the father-in-law, the emperor's father-in-law!

Could it be that the emperor wanted to put him in the prison of Dongchang?

Before Cao Huachun left, he whispered to Qian Longxi: "Old Master Qian, our family advises you to go back. If you are really angry, you will be in trouble."

After saying that, he left. Everyone looked at his departure back with complex eyes.

"Master Qian Ge, what should I do now?"

The question was Wang Qia, the Minister of War. Wang Qia was about 1.9 meters tall and looked like a door panel. He was originally the Minister of Works. Because he was tall and burly and looked very cool, he was appointed as the Minister of War by Chongzhen.

From this point, it can also be seen that Emperor Chongzhen in history would rely on his own senses when using people.

Qian Longxi sighed and said, "Oh, we'll be here tonight."

Chief Li Biao said: "Yes, it's here, you must not leave!"

At this time, Chongzhen and Zhou Wanyan finished their pastries and started chatting.

As we chatted, it was getting late and we went to bed.

Chongzhen was 19 years old and Zhou Wanyan was 17 years old.

Although I have been married for several years, I am still young.

Moreover, Zhou Wanyan is delicate and small, her skin is smoother than silk, her hair is as black as jade, and her eyes are as autumn water. Chongzhen's breathing is even worse.

I came here through time and went to sleep with someone else's wife the next day. Isn't it bad?

Not good! Not good! It’s a beastly act! I can’t do this!

This girl is already miserable enough and needs love and care!

Huh? It smells so good!

"Does it hurt?"
