Ming Dynasty: He was ordered to give lectures in prison, but Lao Zhu eavesdropped and made people nu

Chapter 592: Jinyiwei's plan
"Imperial Master, the envoy from Annan has arrived again." A palace maid reported softly.

"Understood. I'll go there right away." Lin Che put down the scroll in his hand and frowned slightly. In order to maintain the relationship between the two countries, it's not that he can't play with Annan, or Zhu Chong, again.

Under the instigation of the Annan court officials, the king's heart has begun to waver.

"Tell your king that Annan and Ming are like the sun and the moon in the universe, interdependent and living and dying together. If the sun and the moon do not exist, how can the universe not be in chaos?"

Lin Che's words were clear and powerful, like a meteor streaking through the night sky, illuminating the messenger's anxious heart.

The messenger bowed deeply, and a gleam of relief could be seen on his face. "I will definitely convey the words of the national teacher to my king."

Inside the Imperial Master's Mansion, a shadow passed silently.

Lin Che's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He had known that Zhu Chong would send someone to investigate.

It is undoubtedly a threat from within.

His heart moved, but he looked towards somewhere in the air with a smile.

“Come out. Hiding isn’t a solution.” Lin Che said calmly, and the shadow walked out slowly as if it had heard an irresistible decree.

He was a tall man, dressed in the uniform of the Jinyiwei, with a blank expression on his face and a scroll of memorials in his hand.

"Imperial Master, I am ordered by the King of Qin to deliver this memorial directly to you." The man was indeed sent by Zhu Chong. On the surface, he came to submit a memorial, but in fact he was observing secretly.

Lin Che took the memorial and smiled without answering, but her eyes were still as sharp as an eagle.

He knew that Zhu Chong was trying to act as a troublemaker and stir up war between Annan and the Ming Dynasty.

This sudden memorial at this moment must have other deeper meanings.

The memorial contained long passages of accusations and provocative remarks, attempting to sow doubts about the imperial teacher in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.

A hint of sharpness appeared in the eyes of the Imperial Master Lin Che: "King Qin, you are really thoughtful."

The night was as cool as water, and the leaves of the sycamore trees outside the window were swaying in the wind. However, the rooms in the Imperial Master's Mansion were like a huge chess game, complex and profound.

Early the next morning, Imperial Preceptor Lin Che entered the court with a memorial sent by Zhu Chong.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw him coming, his eyes lit up, and he was obviously looking forward to the new news he could bring.

"Imperial Master, I heard that you have an urgent matter to report?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

“Your Majesty is wise.” Lin Che presented the memorial respectfully. He knew that the most important thing at the moment was not to expose anyone’s sinister intentions, but to calm Zhu Yuanzhang’s heart and make him believe in him.

"Your Majesty, what you see is the grand scene of peace and prosperity in the world, but what your Majesty does not see is the betrayal that is stirring like a loach underground."

"Today, someone secretly sent this memorial to my residence. I believe there must be something fishy about it, so I am reporting it to Your Majesty without hiding anything."

Lin Che spoke calmly and firmly, with every word carrying great weight.

Zhu Yuanzhang took the memorial and glanced over the awkward and serious text.

He hesitated, but ultimately, he decided to rely on his own judgment.

"National Master, I know you have the world in your heart, and I can tell the difference between these villains' provocations and provocations."

“I also trust you to quell these uneasy voices. Go ahead, I’ll give you instructions.” Zhu Yuanzhang gave Lin Che the power and trust to charge.

Lin Che nodded in thanks, with a calm smile on his face, but without revealing the slightest bit of complacency. He turned around and left the court with a leisurely pace.

What he faced were opponents lurking like shadows, trying to take advantage of the internal and external struggles to launch a more brutal attack on him.

Lin Che returned to his study and looked out the window at the distant sky. He raised his hand slightly and muttered to himself: "The wind rises from the tip of the green duckweed, and the waves are stirred between the ripples. I will definitely be able to calm this storm in the court."

His figure, like a superstar with lofty ambitions, shines brightly in the sky of the Ming Dynasty.

……

At the northernmost tip of the Ming Dynasty, the border was vague and illusory, with only twelve bonfires hinting at human habitation.

Zhu Chong, wearing a black nightgown, stood on a huge rock, looking down at the tents of the Mongolian tribes on the border.

The moonlight was shining brightly, illuminating his cold face, and his eyes were as deep as the night.

"Who is coming?" Suddenly, a shout from a realm interrupted the silence.

Lin Che remained calm, and the several Jinyiwei following behind him were already standing ready, in this chaotic world filled with chaos and hostility.

"Not an enemy." Zhu Chong responded indifferently. His voice was calm and powerful, causing the Mongolian warriors to stop involuntarily.

Not long ago, the Mongolian tribes on the border were finally pacified by the Ming Dynasty, but now war has broken out again, and they are already dissatisfied.

However, Zhu Chong had bigger things on his mind.

He secretly learned that some Annan nobles who were dissatisfied with the Ming Dynasty's rule were colluding with the remnants of the Mongolian forces to plan an unprecedented rebellion.

“What are you going to do to us?” A burly Mongolian stepped forward and stared at Lin Che with narrowed eyes in distrust. The person responsible was Zahak, the patriarch of the Mongolian tribe.

Zhu Chong looked at Zahak calmly and said, "I am here to thoroughly investigate something. If you have no intention of participating in any conspiracy, then you naturally have nothing to worry about."

Zahak was silent for a moment before nodding, indicating that he agreed to Zhu Chong's proposal.

Zhu Chong and the Mongolian warriors came to the fire and sat around it talking. The flames flickered, casting light or dark shadows on everyone's face.

Zhu Chong did not mention the rebellion directly, but started with the life of the Mongols, trying to understand their connection with the Annan nobles.

"We Mongolians have always valued trustworthiness, loyalty and bravery since ancient times," said a heroic young warrior.

"Although you, the Ming Dynasty, will not collude with those people in the south."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Chong caught a glimpse of some unusual movement in a shadow not far away.

The doubts in his heart grew stronger, as if there was indeed a hidden story here, but it was not known by Zahak.

Zhu Chong stood up and waved his sleeves. A strong airflow swept up the dust on the ground. The shadow was a spy.

"If you are not from the Ming Dynasty, why are you lurking here?" Zhu Chong stared at the spy with an intimidating aura.

The spy had nowhere to hide and was forced to come out from the shadows. He was an assassin from Annan. The secret letter he carried was the evidence of the collusion between the Annan nobles and the assassin.

Zhu Chong smiled coldly and raised the corners of his lips. Before An could make a move, he knew that it was difficult for him to escape, so he opened his mouth to reveal the truth.

"Yes, many people in Annan are dissatisfied with the oppression of the Ming Dynasty and have sought help from Mongolia...but they did not respond to us."

The ingenious layout of the Jinyiwei and the school lieutenant secret agents handed down by Zhu Yuanzhang finally made the mystery clear in the critical moment.

"Go back to Beijing and tell the emperor."

"The truth about Annan's rebellion has been uncovered. There is no need to worry about the border war."

Zhu Chong instructed the Jinyiwei beside him, then looked at Zahak and said, "If you can abide by your beliefs, the Ming Dynasty will naturally not forget the previous alliance."
