Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

He secretly complained, "The princes have already sent secret agents to Yingtian Prefecture, clearly intending to rebel, yet Your Majesty really doesn't care at all..."

Thinking of this, Zhao Feng felt a little frustrated.

I thought that this time, the Jinyiwei had gotten Zhou Lixuan and Fan Songde to confess, not only did they get confessions but also obtained evidence, so it could be considered a bit of credit, right? After all, this was a major case of treason by a vassal king!

But this young emperor is calmer and more composed than anyone else.

Zhao Feng couldn't help but wonder in his heart, can this be considered a credit?

Of course, he didn't dare to show anything on his face. He just tried his best to remain calm and replied, "Your Majesty, the two secret agents we captured a few days ago were tortured in the interrogation room of the imperial prison for several days and finally confessed."

Zhu Yunhuan was still too lazy to raise his eyelids.

Zhao Feng only saw him writing something on the rice paper in front of him. Then, as if realizing that what he had written was wrong, he raised his pen and made a stroke from left to right, erasing it. In the meantime, he casually asked Zhao Feng, "Did you spill your words? What did you say?"

Zhao Feng was speechless, muttering to himself, "No, this is a case of a vassal prince plotting rebellion. Your Majesty, will you please give His Highness the Prince of Yan some respect?"

He replied respectfully, "The two criminals have confessed that they were ordered to stay in Yingtian Prefecture ten years ago and await orders. Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, they have been ordered to approach the nobles of Huaixi, intentionally or unintentionally. Over a month ago, they received orders from above to contact and associate with Heqing Marquis Zhang Yi, Huaiyuan Marquis Cao Xing, and Zhu Shou, Zhuo Marquis, looking for an opportunity to instigate conflict between them and Your Majesty."

While talking.

Zhu Yunhuan just shook his head slightly and put a cross on the paper in front of him.

He lifted the paperweight, opened the first piece of paper and put it aside, then began to think while looking at the blank piece of rice paper underneath.

At the same time, he grumbled nonchalantly, "Well, ten years is a long time, but it's also within reason."

"This damn bald donkey was appointed as the chief monk by Old... uh..." Zhu Yunhuan paused politely and swallowed the word "Old Zhu" ten years ago before continuing, "My grandfather, the Emperor, bestowed upon him the position of chief monk. This damn bald donkey is very ambitious and wants to stir up trouble in this Ming Dynasty, haha!"

Zhao Feng subconsciously clenched his fists.

My heart trembled, and I felt that the young man sitting behind the dragon desk in front of me was mysterious, scary, and creepy...

I got goosebumps all over my body.

He immediately gasped inwardly, "Your Majesty not only knows that it's the Prince of Yan's side, not only does he know which monk named 'Daoyan' is responsible, but he even... knows that monk is the one who took the initiative!?"

"No, it was ten years ago. How old was Your Majesty then?"

Zhao Feng originally thought that he had already prepared himself mentally. After all, all the things that should shock and appall him had already shocked him when he met the emperor before coming to the Qianqing Palace.

But I didn't expect it.

What his master knew was much deeper than he imagined!

Zhao Feng bit his tongue to stay calm and avoid losing his composure. He immediately clasped his fists in awe and said, "Your Majesty is wise and far-sighted! The filthiness of every corner of the Ming Dynasty cannot be hidden from your Majesty's eyes!"

Zhu Yunhuan raised his eyebrows indifferently.

After all, he knew the direction of history early on, so this matter was not worth mentioning to him.

He wrote a few more words on the blank rice paper in front of him and asked, "Have you got any evidence?"

He really doesn't care about anything else, this is what he wants.

Zhao Feng immediately pulled out the confessions of Zhou Lixuan and Fan Songde, as well as the correspondence they had found based on their statements. He raised his hands above his head and bowed, saying, "We have the confessions, the correspondence between them and Monk Daoyan, the chief monk of His Highness the Prince of Yan, and the Jinyiwei's cascading torture instruments. Even the strongest of men would be forced to confess. Separate interrogations of both parties will allow us to verify each other's claims."

This made Ma Sanbao's eyes widen. After all, he had not participated in the affairs of these two secret agents. It was like he knew nothing about it and suddenly heard the news that the Prince of Yan was rebelling...

What's outrageous is that his master treated this matter as just an ordinary thing. He didn't even bother to raise his head when listening, and just focused on the things at hand.

However, he was the person who had been with Zhu Yunhuan the longest, and he knew his master's temperament very well - he was the one who did not follow the rules.

So Ma Sanbao forced himself to remain calm despite this sudden shock.

He walked towards Zhao Feng holding a whisk, took the thing in his hand, then walked to Zhu Yunhuan and gently placed it on the dragon desk. Seeing the blood stains on the confessions, he grinned silently.

Only then did Zhu Yunhuan put the pen in his hand on the pen holder.

He turned around with interest and glanced at the pair of "evidence" beside him. He smiled lightly and said with a hint of ridicule: "Tsk, you Jinyiwei are really ruthless. There's blood everywhere."

Although he said that the Jinyiwei were cruel, his tone was relaxed.

Zhao Feng could naturally tell that Zhu Yunhuan was teasing him.

I was secretly delighted: "Your Majesty is in a good mood. It seems that obtaining substantial evidence this time can be considered a merit."

He responded respectfully, "Serving Your Majesty, the Jinyiwei naturally dare not be less than dedicated. These two are treasonous and daring, and they deserve all the suffering they have endured. If Your Majesty had not spared their lives for now, even lingchi would be considered a bargain for them."
