Hao Youqian scolded sternly.

Ever since the last assassination of Zhu Yunhuan, Hao Youqian has become extremely sensitive to such things.

Hao Youqian knew clearly that Zhu Yunhuan was not only his master, but also the guarantee of his future wealth and glory.

He was also aware that protecting Zhu Yunhuan was to protect his own interests, so he was extremely vigilant against any behavior that might threaten Zhu Yunhuan's safety.

"Unjust! Your Majesty, I am innocent. I am not here to kill you. I have made a major discovery. Someone smuggled weapons into Xuanfu. This arrow is evidence, evidence!"

Jiang Li eagerly explained to Zhu Yunhuan, hoping to clear his name. He knew that if the facts were not clarified in time, the consequences would be disastrous.

He was charged with the crime of assassinating the king and was beheaded on the spot, and he didn't even have time to get the golden medal to avoid death.

Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand, "Let him go and leave."

"Yes." The imperial guards took the order, then released Jiang Li, left the side hall, and continued to guard the door.

The arrows that were taken away were also handed over to Zhu Yunhuan.

Zhu Yunhuan looked down at the arrow in his hand and asked solemnly, "Jiang Li, what did you say just now? I didn't hear it clearly, please say it again."

Zhu Yunhuan's voice was low and serious, with an imperial majesty pressing down on him.

Jiang Li pressed his forehead to the ground and said in a panic, "Your Majesty! Someone is committing treason! I found a secret room under the Pudu Temple, which contains a large amount of gold and silver treasures. However, what is even more shocking is that there is another secret room hidden under the secret room. It turned out to be a small factory and warehouse, which was suspected to have been dug by the previous dynasty. Hundreds of thousands of arrows and disassembled three-bow crossbows were produced there! Some of these have been smuggled to Xuanfu. I have solid evidence here!"

After saying that, Jiang Lin took out another stack of letters from his arms and handed them to Zhu Yunhuan respectfully.

Hao Youqian on the side quickly stepped forward, took the letter, and handed it to Zhu Yunhuan.

Zhu Yunhuan took the letter without saying a word and began to read it.

As time went by, his face gradually became extremely gloomy, and his eyes flashed with anger and disappointment.

"Huaixi... treason, is it reliable?" Zhu Yunhuan put down the letter with a flat tone, but it was more like the rhythm before the storm.

It’s not that I don’t have any emotions, but there is no point in talking about them anymore.

"I don't know, but these unnumbered things can be transported to the Xuanfu border unimpeded, which is definitely related to Huaixi!" Jiang Lin did not dare to talk too much about Huaixi, at least not before Zhu Yunhuan clearly expressed his intention to move Huaixi.

"Imperial Master, what do you think?" Zhu Yunhuan looked at Yao Guangxiao.

Yao Guangxiao shook his head slightly, "One bad apple spoils the whole barrel."

Zhu Yunhuan was wondering how to properly handle this matter. After all, this incident was not just a simple act of treason, but was more likely to involve power struggles and interest distribution within the court.

Could it be that... Maxim will eventually be called out to quell the rebellion?

"Then who do you think is most likely to be involved?" Zhu Yunhuan asked again.

Yao Guangxiao replied, "Duke of Liang, Lan Yu."

"Who are you talking about?" Zhu Yunhuan stood up. Yao Guangxiao really never stops until he says something shocking.

Lan Yu is a traitor. Are you kidding me?

"I followed His Royal Highness Prince Yan from Peking to Beijing and learned a lot. The Duke of Liang has more than a thousand adopted sons and nephews. Among them, all the sons and nephews of officials have the surname Lan. They are not only distributed in the army, but also in various places. Seven out of ten of those guarding the border are from the Huai system or are closely related to Huaixi. This matter must be related to the people of the Duke of Liang, but it's just a matter of whether the Duke of Liang knows about it or not. The Duke of Liang is a fearless bastard, and his adopted sons and nephews follow his example and dare to do this."
