At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the competition for the deer in the world

Liaoyang Road, Liaoyang Province.

Liaoyang City.

A quiet courtyard.

Lu Fufu, Yao Guangxiao, Zhang Qijiu, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Chen Ting were in a lobby, each with serious expressions.

Lu needless to say: "According to what Commander Zhang said, there is no news about the ten Jinyi guards who sneaked into Pyongyang City. It is very likely that something happened."

Yao Guangxiao continued: "It seems that your original guess may be true. He Sanwu also established an organization similar to the Jin Yiwei in Pyongyang City."

As soon as Yao Guangxiao finished speaking, Zhang Qijiu said with a serious face: "This time, it seems that we have met a strong enemy."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the few people and asked: "He Sanwu is clearly betraying the Ming Dynasty and His Majesty. Do we still need to approach him to confirm this matter?"

Chen Ting also nodded in agreement: "What General Zhu said is exactly what I wanted to ask."

Lu needlessly pondered for a moment and then said: "Now that it has been determined, there is no need to invest any more manpower and energy in this matter. The question before us now is, how should we solve He Sanwu?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into silence.

Yao Guangxiao: "He Sanwu is heavily guarded near He Sanwu, and it is difficult for us to get close. We can only find another way."

"What's the solution?" Lu needlessly looked serious.

Yao Guangxiao: "Previously, Jin Yiwei inquired about a piece of news. I wonder if you have noticed it?"

"What news?" everyone asked in unison.

Yao Guangxiao: "He Sanwu has many concubines in the harem, but only a few of them go there frequently. Perhaps, we can start with these concubines of his."

Lu needless to say: "In that case, you can give it a try."

"It must be difficult to attack directly from these concubines. Yao Jijiu means to attack the relatives of these concubines, right?" Zhang Qijiu looked at Yao Guangxiao and asked.

Yao Guangxiao nodded lightly, "Yes, that's what I mean. We have wasted too much time from Nanjing City to here. I hope that He Sanwu can be solved before Beiyuan is destroyed by His Majesty. Only by solving He Sanwu Five, when your majesty has finished cleaning up the Northern Yuan Dynasty, then the Wei Dynasty established by He Sanwu will be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty."

"I heard that He Sanwu was a bit murderous. Especially since he killed many people in Pyongyang City." Chen Ting added suddenly.

"The people he killed in Pyongyang City were all those who opposed his imitation of Ming Dynasty." Zhang Qijiu explained.

"Imitating what Ming Dynasty did is just imitating others." Lu needless to say calmly.

"This matter is nothing to worry about. Next, everyone will start with the relatives of the concubines who He Sanwu often visits and let their relatives be used by us, but one requirement is that we cannot expose ourselves. Once we can communicate with Those concubines are on the line, and when the time comes, we will start executing another plan." Yao Guangxiao continued.

"Another plan? What plan?" Chen Ting looked at Yao Guangxiao with curiosity in his eyes.

Yao Guangxiao didn't hesitate at all and replied: "Drug him and hold him hostage. Or, drug him and kill him with poison."

"Hiss!" Everyone gasped.

"In addition, if there is other latest news, our plan will change with time." Yao Guangxiao continued to add.

Everyone has no objection to this.

"Okay, let's all disperse!" Lu needless to say when he saw this.

Everyone quickly disappeared from the courtyard.

It's like it never happened.

It was July 23rd in the 22nd year of Zhizheng, July 23rd in the ninth year of Shengwu, and July 23rd in the second year of the Wei Dynasty.

The Duke of Wei and Song Dynasty, Liu Futong, led an army of 30,000 people and was ordered to attack the 100,000 Yuan army on Daning Road. They were defeated. The Wei army abandoned their helmets and armor and retreated to Liaoyang Road, Liaoyang Province to set up defenses.

When He Sanwu learned about the battle, he was furious.

But after he only issued an order to reprimand Liu Futong, he personally led an army of 100,000 yuan to Liaoyang Road, intending to personally conquer the 100,000 Yuan army on Daning Road.

He Sanwu came with confidence and led the army to attack the Yuan army on Daning Road. However, the two sides were in a stalemate for several months, and no one could do anything to the other.

It was September 23rd in the 22nd year of Zhizheng, September 23rd in the 9th year of Shengwu, and September 23rd in the 2nd year of the Wei Dynasty.

Emperor He Sanwu of the Wei Dynasty returned to the court with his troops. At the same time, he left 50,000 troops on Liaoyang Road to increase the strength of the defense and prevent the Yuan army from invading.

It was October 25th in the 22nd year of Zhizheng, October 25th in the ninth year of Shengwu, and October 25th in the second year of the Wei Dynasty.

Cheng De was in the Qinzheng Hall, looking at the memorial presented by Yang Zhongkai, his eyes gloomy as water.

There was a biting chill inside and outside Qinzheng Hall.

He thought of the several boxes of letters that Jinyiwei and Jueshengwei had intercepted before, and he became even more furious.

"Pass on my decree and ask Li Shanchang, Shi Naian, Song Lian, Fang Ming, Zhang Yi, Zhu Sheng and others to come to Qinzheng Hall."

"Yes." Cheng Zhong bowed and responded.

Afterwards, Cheng Zhong left in a hurry.

Cheng De suppressed the anger in his heart and read the memorial presented by Yang Zhongkai again.

He thought he had seen it wrong, but that was not the case.    He was really not wrong.

This He Sanwu actually reached out to Daming.

Cheng De's eyes showed coldness when he thought of this.

It didn't take long.

Li Shanchang, Shi Naian, Song Lian, Fang Ming, Zhang Yi, and Zhu Sheng came to Qinzheng Hall.

After everyone saluted, Cheng De signaled Cheng Zhong to read the memorial document in his hand to everyone.

After Li Shanchang and others heard this, they were all shocked.

"My dear friends, have you received the solicitation letter from He Sanwu?"

Li Shanchang and others felt nervous.

When Cheng De saw this, he knew that everyone had received it.

Qinzheng Palace fell into silence.

Li Shanchang was the first to speak: "Back to Your Majesty, although I received the solicitation letter written by He Sanwu, I burned it directly. In my heart, the only person I am loyal to is Your Majesty."

Shi Naian and others also took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, the same goes for my ministers."

Cheng De did not speak immediately, but looked at everyone for a while, and then said: "My dear friends, of course I can trust you. However, not everyone is as loyal as your dear friends!"

Everyone was stunned.

"According to the information collected by the Jinyi Guards and Juesheng Guards, there have been a lot of letters sent from Nanjing City to the north recently!"

"Unfortunately, these letters were intercepted by my Jinyi Guards and Juesheng Guards."

"It's just that what I didn't expect was that many people in the Ming Dynasty who always said they were loyal to the Ming Dynasty would also appear in the signatures of these letters."

"Tell me, how should I deal with these people?"

"These people have a high salary from the Ming Dynasty, and they want to get another salary from the Wei Dynasty. Tell me, should these people get it?"

"Also, are these people worthy of me?"

Cheng De's voice was cold, so cold that it made people feel frightened.

Li Shanchang and others lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at Cheng De.

"Someone from each of your ministries appeared in the letters intercepted by the Jinyi Guards. I always thought that the unity of the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty would surely make the country's national power flourish. However, I never expected that the so-called unity of the monarchs and ministers was actually a joke."

"Other than you, who else can I trust?"

Cheng De said these words calmly, but his eyes swept over everyone one by one.

Li Shanchang and others remained silent.

half an hour.

Cheng De looked at Li Shanchang and others and said: "Those who expressed their loyalty to He Sanwu, please give me a sentence and ask them to write a letter of resignation. I will save their face. Who has written or not?" , I have a clear conscience and tell them not to act cunning in front of me and take chances. Otherwise, I will not be lenient and the old and new accounts will be settled together."

When Li Shanchang and others heard this, they all bowed and saluted and said, "I obey the order."

Once unfaithful, never a lifetime.

This is Cheng De's attitude towards this incident.

After that, Li Shanchang and others left Qinzheng Hall one after another.

Li Shanchang and others have already issued a document to inform officials of various ministries about Cheng De's words.

However, there are always some people who take chances.

But this touched Cheng De's bottom line and made Cheng De furious.

When Cheng De was angry, Jinyiwei and Jueshengwei came out one after another. Many officials in Nanjing were arrested and thrown into Jinyiwei's prison.

Only ten days have passed, and Jinyiwei's imperial prison is already full.

Many people were eventually sent to the prison of the Nanjing Criminal Department for detention.

Cheng De ransacked the homes of these people. As for the crimes they committed, Cheng De directly asked Jin Yiwei to make a copy of the letters, and then the officials of the Ministry of Punishment would examine them.

Whatever crime should be sentenced, that is what crime should be sentenced.

Moreover, severe punishment will not be spared.

In Cheng De's view, the opportunity has been given to them.

As for them not cherishing it, then they deserve it. (End of chapter)
