Queen Mother Zhang glanced at the stupid son deeply and said, "The Ai family knows that you are confused. If you are involved in your uncle, you won't have any heart? Alas, the Ai family..."

Zhu Houzhao was about to cry and hurriedly said, "Mother, it's because I'm not good, it's because I'm not good..."

Empress Dowager Zhang shook her head, and finally sat up, looked at Zhu Houzhao with a very doting look, touched his head and said, "How come the Ai family doesn't know your temper? The Ai family has been ready. Wang Xi, bring it."

A eunuch carefully sent a note, which Empress Dowager Zhang took and stuffed into Zhu Houzhao's hand: "Your Majesty just press your head to do it."

Zhu Houzhao was a little stunned. She took the note, which was filled with small words. From how to force the thief to surrender, how to negotiate with the thief, how to block the news, how to get the support of all officials in the court, everything is available in every detail.

Zhu Houzhao felt dizzy. Seeing Empress Dowager Zhang's gaze lovingly, her eyes began to turn red again, and she grabbed Zhu Houzhao's hand and said, "Your Majesty, Hou Shouning, Ai's family will entrust you, you..."

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly said, "I...I understand."

After leaving Renshou Palace in a daze, Zhu Houzhao actually forgot what happened. No matter how he looked, something was wrong.

When he encountered serious things, he became confused. Fortunately, his mother left a note and took it and looked at it. Zhu Houzhao felt relieved, "Well, just follow the prescription and grab the medicine."

Before he could chase him, an eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, the ministers of the Pavilion have met, and they are waiting in the warm room."

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly said, "Show your way!"

……………………………………………………………………

The four cabinet masters also saw the report at the first time. Before they could make a statement, they immediately rushed to meet.

How could they sit still when encountering such a big thing? You know, the location of the incident was Beitongzhou. Where is Beitongzhou? It is the hub of canal transportation, and it is under the feet of the emperor. How could such a big thing not be in a hurry?

They had a general idea of ​​this matter. They could only cut the mess quickly and immediately dispatch the Three Thousand Battalions and the Shenji Battalion to march. The Xiaoqi Battalion was behind the scenes, and the Five Military Battalions dispatched various guards to cooperate in the fight. They must be foolproof and neat, otherwise the transportation of the north and south can not be connected, but something big will happen.

So when they saw Zhu Houzhao, they immediately cheered up. As soon as they bowed, Zhu Houzhao glanced at the notes on his hand, then put the notes into his sleeve, and then said with a deep look on his face: "Your mother, my mother is seriously ill, because she is in a coma. Now she is unconscious, I am afraid... I am afraid... If the Marquis of Shouning cannot be saved, and if you hear this bad news, my mother will not know what to do. The State Administration of China governs the world with filial piety. For the sake of my mother, I beg you to save the Marquis of Shouning no matter what. I will kneel down for the Queen of Shouning..."

He was really trying to kneel down. Liu Jian and others were so scared that they were completely out of their minds. They had never seen anyone like this. The king, the ministers and the ministers received great gifts from the king. Not to mention whether they would be punished by God, who knows what consequences would be in the future.

Xie Qian almost didn't want his life. He hugged Zhu Houzhao with one step and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... No."

Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Jiao Fang had no choice but to bow to the ground: "I cannot share your worries for Your Majesty. It is a crime of death. Is Your Majesty's move going to ruin me?"

Zhu Houzhao was just acting, so he naturally knew that he was the Lord of the Nine Five. If he really knelt down, wouldn’t he be stupid?

The purpose has been roughly achieved, how can I say it in the note? Zhu Houzhao remembered it and said, "Since that's the case, the most urgent task at the moment is to save the Queen of Mother. To save the Queen of Mother, we must do our best to save the Queen of Shouning. All the ministers, this matter is very important and there is no need to be too polite. Let's discuss the matter now."

Liu Jian and others just stood up and looked at each other. They suddenly felt that things might develop towards a situation they were not willing to see.

A Shouning Marquis is really nothing in the hearts of the ministers, and for them, the transportation of canals is the most important thing, not to mention the thief of the White Lotus Sect, every issue involved here is a hundred times stronger than the damn Shouning Marquis, just...

After being very unwilling to give up, but finally being given a seat helplessly, Liu Jian had to say hard: "Since that's the case, what should you do according to Your Majesty?"

Liu Jian was determined to give in after all, and Zhu Houzhao's reasons were indeed impeccable. This was for filial piety. The so-called filial piety is the first priority among all virtues. Filial piety is the top priority among etiquette. To be honest, if he insists on suppressing the thieves, then if Empress Dowager Zhang really makes a mistake, can she afford it?

Zhu Houzhao was shocked and said, "I really have an idea..."

………………………………………

The canal ship was moored at a pier in Beitongzhou. Ye Chunqiu slept and seemed energetic. He thought to get off the boat and take a walk, look at the scene of this thoroughfare between the north and the south, and take the opportunity to see the scenery of the north.

Who knew that someone shouted in panic at this time: "Not good, no good, there are chaos...rebels."

Then there was a bang, and the sound of a gun came out. Ye Jing was shocked and hurried out of the cabin. He saw hundreds of "commissioned soldiers" on the deck boarding the ship, more than a dozen people holding muskets, and the others were holding swords and guns.

The dark musket gun pointed at Ye Jing. Ye Jing felt it was inappropriate and hurriedly said to Ye Chunqiu in the cabin: "Chunqiu, don't come out."

After he said this, Ye Chunqiu, who was originally in running script, was shocked and hurriedly took out his Japanese sword. When he saw these people with bad intentions, they were all the officials and soldiers, he was relieved. However, at this time, he found two corpses lying on the deck, which were the familiar boatmen.

Rebels!

Suddenly, Ye Chunqiu confirmed the other party's identity. When these people saw Ye Chunqiu carrying a knife, they were nervous. More than a dozen people raised their muskets and one person shouted: "Put down the knife."

Ye Chunqiu pinched the knife tightly and reluctantly calmed himself down, but he couldn't help but feel a lot of doubts. How could there be rebels in this Beitongzhou?

He hesitated, but the person in charge of the other party grinned: "There are two more scholars, which is the best. Take them down, don't move around, otherwise...hehe..."

These people were obviously well-trained, and dozens of people surrounded them. The boatmen and the escorted officers and soldiers were all trembling, abandoned their swords and fell to the ground one by one.

And at this time, seven or eight rebels had come with their swords, and one of them shouted sternly: "Are you deaf? Our incense master told you to put down your sword..."

Someone on the other side wanted to take Ye Jing, but Ye Chunqiu's Japanese sword flashed, but it directly pressed against his chest, which scared the man.
Chapter completed!
