Chapter 124 The Greatly Stimulated Son of Heaven 【Ask for a monthly ticket】

Li Huan looked right and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Return to Your Majesty, what I brought is about the crimes of Shi Hao and others."

Speaking of which, Li Huan took one of the stacks from Gao Feng's hands. This stack was as thick as a book, and it was really a thick stack. Zhu Houzhao was taken aback when he saw it.

There are so many crimes against more than a dozen officials at once, no wonder Zhu Houzhao was stunned to see how many evil deeds these people have to do to allow the interrogating officials to record so many.

He took a copy casually, which was the indictment of Lu Wenhua, a household doctor. After reading it carefully, Zhu Houzhao's expression quickly became extremely ugly, and then he turned a few pages, and even his breathing became a little short.

With a bang, Zhu Houzhao threw the guilt on the ground and said angrily: "Okay, okay, he is really a loyal minister of my Daming, he is a sixth-grade doctor, and in just a few years, he has been greedy for more than 20 taels of silver. He is really brave, according to Taizu's rules, how many times does he have to peel the real grass!"

Taking another copy by hand, with a glance, Zhu Houzhao quickly threw that copy of guilt on the ground again.

Li Huan just glanced at it and saw that it was a crime against Chen Qi, a member of the Ministry of Industry. Although this member of the Ministry of Industry, Wailang, was not as corrupt as Lu Wenhua, a master of the household department, he was not much worse.

The Ministry of Industry is in charge of the supervision of many large-scale projects in the Ming Dynasty. As long as they are willing, whether it is cutting corners or embezzling project funds, they can get great benefits.

According to Chen Qi's own account, he can remember several large-scale in-and-out payments, from which he got nearly 6 taels of dirty silver. It is impossible to describe them one by one, and I am afraid that the sum of the silver taels embezzled by him is at least 8 to [-] taels.

"Shushu, they are all Shushu. It would be easy to steal their homes. If Taizu were here, they would have to kill all their nine clans."

Seeing Zhu Houzhao's venting, Li Huan handed another file to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, these are the property confiscated from the homes of these officials. The total amount is about 65 taels of cash, real estate, shops, jewelry, etc. Don't wait."

As he spoke, he glanced at the valuations of those real estate, shops, jewelry, etc., and then said: "According to Jin Yiwei's inventory, aside from gold and silver, the rest is worth nearly 50 taels."

"Nearly 120 million taels, they really dare to reach out!"

Even though Zhu Houzhao was already mentally prepared, knowing that the confiscated family property was worth millions, he still couldn't help but get angry for a while.

"It should be killed, it should be killed, and I will pass on my order to make the crimes of these people public and tell the world, and everyone will be executed!"

Liu Jin on the side suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the cabinet may not be able to pass!"

Zhu Houzhao sneered and said, "What reason do they have for not passing it? Could it be that they still dare to cover up these heinous people?"

Zhu Houzhao said to Liu Jin, "Liu Daban, immediately order someone to convey my will to the cabinet, and let the cabinet draft a will according to my intention."

Zhu Houzhao wanted the cabinet to personally draw up the decree to kill all criminal officials. To be honest, Li Huan really didn't like it.

If the cabinet really drafted this decree, it will be a wonder if the officials don't fall out by then.

This point can be seen just by looking at Liu Jin's expression, obviously this is not an easy task.

Liu Jin took a deep breath and said, "I will do it myself, and I will definitely invite several elders to draw up an order for His Majesty."

It could be seen that Zhu Houzhao was not in a good mood, so he waved at Liu Jin after hearing the words.

When Liu Jin left, Zhu Houzhao said to Li Huan, "Your family, come with me!"

Li Huan bowed in response, and followed Zhu Houzhao, looking at Qiu Ju and Gao Feng, who were beside him, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Zhu Houzhao walked in front, Li Huan and others walked behind, Qiu Ju and Gao Feng came forward.

Li Huan glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and said in a low voice: "Brother Qiu, Brother Gao, why do I feel that His Majesty is not in a good mood? Who offended His Majesty?"

When he saw Zhu Houzhao earlier, Li Huan had already noticed that Zhu Houzhao was in a bad mood, but he didn't know why.

Qiu Ju said in a low voice: "Brother Li, you don't know something. Today, the Queen Mother summoned His Majesty, taught him a lesson for a long time, and repeatedly told His Majesty to listen to the opinions of the cabinet elders and stay away from treacherous villains..."

After talking about Qiu Ju's words, he took a sneak peek at Li Huan.

Seeing Qiu Ju's reaction, Li Huan couldn't help but realize that the treacherous villain that the queen mother spoke of could be himself.

So Li Huan opened his eyes wide and pointed to his nose, meaning, could it be that I am the treacherous villain?

Seeing Li Huan's actions, Qiu Ju nodded to Li Huan.

Li Huan couldn't help smiling wryly, he didn't expect that he would become a treacherous villain to deceive the emperor with the queen mother.To put it bluntly, I don't blame the Queen Mother. If we only look at Li Huan's actions, it is not uncommon for him to be misunderstood as a treacherous villain.

Who let Li Huan suddenly be favored by the emperor, and took down so many officials as soon as he took power, I am afraid that in the period of the first emperor, in three to five years, there may not be so many officials taken down by Jin Yiwei.

Li Huan's age is there, but for anyone, as long as one hears about Li Huan's age, it is difficult for people to have any sense of trust. The most direct feeling is that Li Huan is a lucky minister of the emperor.

And Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, Liu Jian, and Xie Qian were all important officials left by Emperor Hongzhi to the emperor. Li Huan pulled Liu Jian and Xie Qian down as soon as he came up. The old minister is not surprised.

Zhu Houzhao walked in front, but it didn't mean he couldn't detect the movements of Li Huan and Qiu Ju behind him.

Besides, in front of Zhu Houzhao, Qiu Ju and Li Huan didn't dare to hide their small actions from Zhu Houzhao, so the voices of the few people were only slightly lowered, so Zhu Houzhao heard the conversation clearly.

Zhu Houzhao paused, glared at Qiu Ju and said, "Talking!"

How could Qiu Ju fail to see that Zhu Houzhao wasn't really angry, but he slapped himself on the mouth a few times in coordination with him and said, "Your Majesty's lesson is that it's the old slave who talks too much, and the old slave punishes himself."

Zhu Hou took a look at Li Huan and said: "My mother just misunderstood Li Qing. Besides, my mother just mentioned it casually. She also said that Liu Jin, Qiu Ju, Gao Feng and others have led me to ruin. , all of them are not good slaves!"

Obviously Zhu Houzhao was trying to comfort Li Huan, and Li Huan was quite moved.

Speaking of which, even if Li Huan knew that the queen mother didn't like him, he didn't even care too much about him as a treacherous villain who bewitched the emperor.

The influence of the harem of the Ming Dynasty on the court was almost negligible. Since the Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, it was strictly forbidden for the harem to interfere in politics.It can be said that there was no chaos in the harem during the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "The Qing family has saved my life. Besides, can't I tell what kind of people the Qing family is?"

Bowing slightly, Li Huan smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for protecting me!"

With a wave of his hand, Zhu Houzhao said to Li Huan, "Go hunting with me!"

Zhu Houzhao's sudden decision was really unexpected, and he really deserved to be the emperor of Zhengde.

Seeing the expressions of Li Huan and the others, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help saying: "What? Are you also persuading me to stay in this imperial city and not go anywhere?"

Li Huan said with a smile: "What is your majesty saying? Since your majesty wants to go hunting, I will accompany you!"

Gao Feng, Qiu Ju and the others nodded repeatedly and said: "Brother Li is right, I will arrange for your majesty to leave the palace after I wait here."

Zhu Houzhao waved his hands and said, "Go, but don't make too much noise, lest it will be passed on to the queen mother, and she will be nagging in my ear again."

Soon the emperor Luan drove out of the Forbidden City. There were guards of honor in front of him, accompanied by palace guards all around, and even Dongchang fanzi and Jinyiwei school lieutenant who were urgently dispatched to patrol around just in case.

Li Huan rode on Shenjun's war horse and followed Luanjia. The mighty procession passed through the long street, and on both sides of the long street were scattered people kneeling on both sides.

I have to say that it is really quite a commotion for the emperor Luan to drive once. If such a big commotion is just for relaxation, Li Huan understands why the cabinet ministers and all the civil and military officials in the court are so disgusted with the emperor's regularity. out of the palace.

Of course, disturbing the people and safety are only part of it, or it is an excuse used by the officials to restrain the emperor and let the emperor stay in the palace obediently.

And the real reason was probably that an emperor who couldn't stay in the palace made them feel uncontrollable.

Perhaps it was the desire of the cabinet and officials to control the emperor that gave Zhu Houzhao the idea of ​​building a world of his own outside the imperial city, and the Leopard House came into being.

It took almost an hour before the emperor's team arrived at the royal hunting ground.

At this time, the royal hunting ground has already been blocked by Jinyiwei, and Qian Ning, a thousand households of Jinyiwei, is looking at the emperor Luanjia who is slowly approaching with some anticipation.

Especially seeing Li Huan who was accompanying the Emperor Luan, Qian Ning couldn't help feeling endless envy and jealousy.

It would be great if I could replace Li Huan as an attendant by the emperor's side.

The inexplicable thought came to Qian Ning's heart, but soon Qian Ning suppressed it. He is just a thousand households of the Jinyiwei now, not even the top of the Jinyiwei, how can he be at the same distance from the Jinyiwei commander? Compared with Li Huan who was only one step away.

Even compared to Li Huan's official position in Jinyiwei, what really envied him was the emperor's trust and respect for Li Huan.

Even if Li Huan is just a pawn, with the respect and trust of the emperor, he can still make a fortune.

Just when Qian Ning was thinking about these things in a mess, a voice said: "Your Majesty is here."

Qian Ning's spirit was shaken, but he bowed respectfully to the stopped Luanjia together with the officials of Jinyiwei behind him.

Qian Ning, who was lying on the ground, only saw one foot stepping out of the Luanjia, and even if he raised his head slightly, he could only see the lower body of the emperor.

It can be seen that the emperor is really here to hunt, and Zhu Houzhao is full of heroism in his clean and neat outfit.

Seeing the officials of Jinyiwei who greeted him and the officials in charge of managing the royal hunting grounds, Zhu Houzhao waved his hands and said, "Let's get down without courtesy!"

While talking, Zhu Houzhao turned his attention to Li Huan and said, "Li Qing, let's compare and see who hunts more prey."

Li Huan couldn't help laughing and said: "Your Majesty, why don't I let you..."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly said like a hedgehog with fried hair: "The Qing family is indeed very strong, but I am not bad. If the Qing family gives way, what's the point of my victory?"

Saying that, Zhu Houzhao waved his big hand and said, "Come here, take my rouge BMW and take my precious bow!"

Qian Ning, who originally wanted to show his face in front of Zhu Houzhao, didn't expect that Zhu Houzhao didn't even look at them, just stood by the side with his head down, watching Li Huan and Zhu Houzhao joking like ordinary friends, even the emperor Not angry at all, Channing looked jealous.

It's a pity that no one paid attention to him, a small thousand households. Even Li Huan was slightly surprised when he saw Qian Ning, but he didn't pay too much attention.

After all, Qian Ning can be regarded as Liu Jin's person, and he still has a relationship. It is not surprising that he was temporarily transferred to be responsible for maintaining the safety of the royal hunting ground.

Soon a group of horses with incomparable steeds were brought over, Zhu Houzhao got on the horses, took a bow from Gao Feng at the same time, smiled at Li Huan and said, "Li Qing, do you want me to find you a horse?" ?”

Li Huan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, if you lose, don't blame the minister."

Zhu Houzhao flicked his whip straight away, and immediately rode his horse towards the hunting ground. Gao Feng, Qiu Ju, and several palace guards hurriedly drove their horses to follow closely.

Li Huan also took a pat, and drove his horse to the hunting ground.

The steward in charge of the hunting grounds couldn't help sighing when he saw this situation: "I've always heard that Master Li is favored by His Majesty, but when I saw it today, I realized that it's not just a simple favor."

The manager is obviously a frustrated person in the officialdom. After all, the head of the royal hunting ground is not a good job. Generally speaking, if he is sent to manage the royal hunting ground, he must be a loser who has been sent. Naturally, he is extremely envious of Li Huan being favored by the emperor. .

However, Qian Ning was even more aggrieved when he heard the words of the principal.

The scope of the royal hunting ground is not small, and there are various wild animals in it, such as hares, roe deer, foxes and other prey are still quite a lot.

It's like Zhu Houzhao has shot and killed two hares and a roe at this moment, and the happy Zhu Houzhao excitedly said to Gao Feng and Qiu: "It seems that my luck is quite good. Li Qing is very strong. It’s true, the key is to be lucky enough to find the prey.”

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was in a good mood, Gao Feng giggled and said, "Your Majesty said that Brother Li didn't even find the prey at this moment."

"Hahaha, Big Companion is right, hurry up and look for prey with me, I will definitely beat Li Qing this time."

After half a day, Zhu Houzhao and his party had entered the depths of the hunting ground, with tall trees and lush forests, and correspondingly more prey.

More than a dozen guards were scattered all around, paying attention to the movement around them at all times to prevent any accidents.

Even though it was said that Jinyiwei and Dongchang had sent people to check before the emperor came to the hunting ground, but no one dared to be careless in the slightest.

Zhu Houzhao's face showed a bit of exhaustion. Looking for prey in this dense forest, it is not an easy task to draw a bow and shoot an arrow.

What's more, a person like Zhu Houzhao who doesn't have much kung fu can persist for so long because his natural physique is not weak.

Riding on the horse, Zhu Hou looked at the many prey hanging on the horse, and couldn't help laughing: "The time agreed with Li Qing is almost here. Send Li Qing a signal later, and we should go out."

Suddenly, a roar came faintly, the sound was not too far away, so Zhu Houzhao and others could hear it clearly.

Hearing the roar, more than a dozen guards immediately surrounded him, taking care of Zhu Hou faintly in the middle.

Qiu Ju whispered to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the sound sounds like a bear, and there seems to be more than one of them, as if they are fighting with something."

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help showing some surprise when he heard the words: "Follow me to have a look."

The faces of Qiu Ju and the others changed, and they looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty, no, Xiong Wei is extremely fierce, and those who are idle are invincible. Although we have a large number of people, we are not afraid of Xiong Wei, but there is no need to take risks. That risk, after all, His Majesty's dragon body is the most important..."

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help frowning. Although he is playful, it doesn't mean he doesn't listen to advice and ignores the overall situation. Naturally, he knows that what Qiu Ju said is for his consideration, so Zhu Houzhao's face is full of hesitation.

At this time, a voice came from not far away: "Your Majesty, there are ministers guarding the side, if you want to take a look, then go and take a look."

Hearing that voice, Qiu Ju, Gao Feng and others' eyes lit up, and their faces showed a look of relief, even the imperial palace guards breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Huan was dressed in strong clothes, striding over from the dense forest, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help being taken aback when he saw this, and said in surprise, "Where is your war horse, Li Qing, why did you come here on foot?"

Li Huan smiled and said: "That thing is too much of a hindrance in this forest, luckily I can walk on foot."

Looking at Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao suddenly came to his senses, with a touch of emotion on his face, he said, "Li Qing, you didn't go hunting at all, but stayed by my side all the time, right?"

Li Huan was taken aback, he didn't expect Zhu Houzhao to think of this so quickly.

Indeed, Li Huan really didn't have the heart to go hunting. Although the royal hunting ground had certain guarantees in terms of safety, no one could guarantee that there would be no accidents.

The emperor really had an accident in the dense forest. It would be no wonder if the cabinet and civil and military officials who wished to smash Li Huan and the Eight Tigers into pieces could miss such a good opportunity.

At that time, I am afraid that all of them will not escape liquidation.

Therefore, just in case, Li Huan simply abandoned his war horse and followed Zhu Houzhao and others secretly. That is to say, seeing Zhu Houzhao calmed down his hunting heart, and he wanted to see the bear fighting in the distance. Huan then stood up.

Seeing Li Huan's expression, Zhu Houzhao knew that he had guessed correctly, his face was full of emotion and said: "I am so lucky to have you!"

Li Huan said with a smile: "This is just the duty of the minister. It is the blessing of the minister to gain the trust of your majesty."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly looked into the distance and said: "Come on, let's go back, let's not watch the excitement, after all, Xiong Wei is not easy to provoke, and when the time comes to scare those ominous creatures, Li Qing has to take action. Li Qing is here for me. Li Qing has been guarding her safety in secret, how can I let Qing and others take the risk."

"Roar!"

At this moment, the growls of the bears were getting closer and closer. Unexpectedly, Zhu Houzhao was about to leave, but the bears seemed to be driven to this side by something.

Li Huan saw two big and one small black bears roaring and panicking, and behind them was a group of ten or twenty crazy wild boars.

Seeing those wild boars, Li Huan finally understood why the three bears were driven to flee for their lives. The wild boars went crazy, even ferocious beasts like black bears and tigers would stay away.

The expressions of the rest of the people also changed. They thought it was just Xiong Wei, but they never imagined that there are so many crazy wild boars.

Li Huan immediately said to Qiu Ju and others: "You protect Your Majesty and wait for me to take care of these things!"

Seemingly aware of Li Huan and the others, those wild boars abandoned the three bears and ran towards Li Huan and the others howling, but took Li Huan and the others as their targets.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but said to Li Huan: "Li Qing must be careful."

Li Huan laughed, without turning his head, he said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."

While speaking, Li Huan bumped into one of the bears head-on. This bear was the strongest among the three black bears, and it should be the male bear in the family of three.

Xiong Wei, who weighed a thousand catties, staggered back a few steps when hit by Li Huan, and then lay on his back with a plop.

However, Li Huan reached out and grabbed the other female bear like a normal person, and punched the female bear fiercely on the chest. The terrifying force directly shattered the black bear's heart.

With a thud, the female bear fell silent before she even had time to struggle.

As for the other little bear, it was slapped by Li Huan and flew out, breaking a small tree, and it twitched a few times before it lost its breath.

Obviously, Li Huan didn't hold back this move, one move was a black bear, and all three moves were settled, but the real test was the oncoming dozen or twenty wild boars.

Looking at the dense wild boars, Li Huan couldn't help but frown, but Li Huan took the knife in his hand and jumped up, accompanied by streaks of blood, the knife technique he learned from Chen Yidao had been completely changed by Li Huan. own things.

Every knife cut seems to be natural and just right.

At this moment, Li Huan gave people the impression that the Pao Ding was like the Pao Ding who relieved the cow. With just one stab, a crazy wild boar was easily cut off its neck.

Zhu Houzhao in the distance looked at Li Huan standing there, and no wild boar could cross the line where Li Huan was standing.

In the effort of dozens of breaths, ten or twenty wild boars were all beheaded by Li Huan under the knife, and the heads of wild boars rolled down one by one, and the gushing blood even stained the surrounding area several feet away. It's red.

Breathing out a turbid breath, Li Huan put the knife back into its sheath, threw himself down in front of Zhu Houzhao and said calmly, "Your Majesty, I have killed the bear and the wild boar. Your Majesty can rest assured."

However, Zhu Houzhao opened his eyes wide at this time, and said to Li Huan full of expectation: "Li Qing, I want to practice martial arts, so you can teach me, okay?"

Although Zhu Houzhao was deeply impressed by Li Huan's shocking and killing of two tigers in the previous episode, but at that time Zhu Houzhao didn't feel anything.

But this time, Zhu Houzhao watched Li Huan's extremely relaxed appearance when he easily killed three bears and killed ten or twenty wild boars with his amazing force.

At that moment, Zhu Houzhao was really stimulated by Li Huan's calm display of force, and the idea of ​​practicing martial arts came into his mind.

When Zhu Houzhao said this, Li Huan was stunned. The emperor wanted to practice martial arts, and he wanted to teach him himself!
Looking at Zhu Houzhao, Li Huan said subconsciously: "Your Majesty, you..."

Zhu Houzhao stared at Li Huan eagerly, and said firmly, "I want to practice martial arts! You, the Qing family, will teach me!"
