Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

Everyone present knew that the imperial edict to be read out next must involve important secrets and was not something they could listen to at will.

So these well-trained generals turned around in unison, as if they had received a silent command.

Their movements were precise and swift, and every turn was as clean and neat as if they had been rehearsed countless times, without any drag.

The uniform movements seemed like a well-trained military performance.

It demonstrates the strict discipline and high execution ability of these generals in their daily lives.

Looking closely at these generals at this moment, I saw that they had different expressions.

Some of them lowered their heads slightly with their eyes cast down, making it impossible to peek into their inner thoughts.

Perhaps he was thinking about what had just happened, or he seemed to be worried about the upcoming changes in the situation.

Some of them looked serious and their expressions were as solemn as sculptures.

There was an unquestionable solemnity and calmness in their eyes, and their tightly pursed lips seemed to indicate their absolute obedience to military discipline.

They each have different thoughts, some are worried, some are speculative, and some are calm.

However, without exception, these generals walked steadily and resolutely towards the exit of the central military tent.

The steady footsteps were like a heavy hammer hitting the ground, and also hitting the hearts of everyone present.

It echoed in the quiet tent like a silent marching song.

Among the group of generals who were ordered to leave the central military tent, the burly Zheng Yuchun stood out.

At this moment, his mind seemed to be filled with extremely urgent matters.

Every step was landed forcefully, as if leaving a deep mark on the ground.

Even in such a hurry, Zheng Yuchun remained steady, and his every move and gesture showed the demeanor of a seasoned general.

The armor he was wearing made a slight rustling sound with every step he took.

The sound was like the sound of dense drumbeats, clearly audible in this silent space.

It seemed to add a solemn tone to this solemn scene, reminding everyone present of the seriousness of the situation.

Yin Xing, who has a thinner build, behaves differently from Zheng Yuchun.

As he followed the crowd out of the tent, he couldn't help but tilt his head slightly.

There was a hint of curiosity and worry in his eyes, as if he wanted to take another look at the situation inside the tent.

Trying to capture some clues about the direction of the situation from this last glimpse.

However, Yin Xing knew very well that the current situation did not allow him to hesitate or pry too much.

Almost instantly he looked away, as if realizing his own gaffe.

Then Yin Xing quickened his pace and hurriedly caught up with the general's departing team.

Time passed quietly during the tense and orderly evacuation. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the central army tent, which was originally full of generals and a little crowded, was reduced to only a few people.

At this time, the breeze blew gently, and the heavy curtains swayed gently in the wind, making a slight sound.

It was like a silent narrator, quietly narrating everything that had just happened.

At this time, inside the central army camp.

The bright yellow light of the imperial edict in Li Heng's hand was still dazzling, and the color seemed to demonstrate the supremacy of imperial power.

The candlelight nearby still flickered in the breeze, and the light and shadow danced freely on the wall, reflecting a silent and mysterious atmosphere.

People can't help but be curious and speculate about the content of the imperial edict that Li Heng is about to read out.

"It is God's destiny, the emperor decreed:

As the Son of Heaven, I rule the world and dominate the four seas.

What we hope for is peace in the world and well-being of all people.

The court has strict discipline, and all the people in the world follow the king's rule.

However, the world is unpredictable. The treacherous and cunning people even attempted to hide in the dark and wantonly disrupt the order of our court.

Such evil deeds are something we detest with the deepest hatred.

Recently, we heard reports that a spy had quietly sneaked into the Prince of Jin's residence.

It is like a woodworm eating away at the wood, endangering the safety of the palace.

The Jinyiwei, whom we rely on the most, also showed signs of being a traitor. They betrayed their master for fame and betrayed secrets.

This is indeed a heinous act, which makes us feel sad and angry.

King Zhu Gang of Jin, we know very well that you are loyal, brave, and thoughtful.

Today, I specially order you to start immediately and do your utmost to investigate the spies in Prince Jin's Palace.

This spy is hiding in the palace, like a cancer.

It must be eradicated completely, without leaving even a single trace behind.

To rectify the rules and regulations of the palace and maintain the peace of the palace.

When taking action, we must be resolute and swift, without any slackness or leniency.

You should know that the safety of the palace is related to the dignity of the royal family and must not be taken lightly.

Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, the Jinyiwei is our personal army.

Responsible for guarding the capital and supervising all officials.

The weight of their responsibility is self-evident.

Now there is the threat of a traitor. This hidden danger is like a tiger hiding next to your bed and should not be underestimated.

We ask you to conduct a thorough investigation within a certain time limit and make sure to find the traitor hiding in the Jinyiwei.

Regardless of their position or background, they will all be severely punished.

Restore the integrity of the Imperial Guard and restore its loyalty and dignity.

You are entrusted with such an important task and should be fully aware that this matter concerns the safety of the country and the peace and order of the world.

If you can devote all your energy and complete our trust successfully.

We will certainly reward you generously and make sure your achievements go down in history.

If there is anyone who pretends to obey but actually disobeys and performs our edicts perfunctorily.

The laws of this country are strict, and we will not show any leniency.

We will punish severely and without mercy with thundering force, uphold the law of the country, and serve as a warning to others.

Admire this! "

When Li Heng clearly read the last word of the imperial edict "秦此" in his shrill and rhythmic voice, the entire central military tent fell into deathly silence.

Zhu Gang and Zhu Di, who were standing opposite, both had solemn expressions on their faces.

They looked at each other subconsciously, and the moment their eyes met seemed to convey thousands of words, full of surprise, confusion and thought.

Zhu Gang was calm and resolute by nature, but at this moment he could not hide the complex look in his eyes.

He frowned slightly, his thick eyebrows were as black as ink, like two locked mountains.

Zhu Gang then looked at Zhu Di with a deep gaze, secretly thinking about the spy in the Prince of Jin's mansion.

This sudden imperial edict undoubtedly placed a heavy burden on his shoulders.

Of course, Zhu Gang was more worried about whether there was a deeper conspiracy behind this matter?
Zhu Di had always been courageous and heroic, but at this moment his eyes were also stern.

When looking at Zhu Gang, a sharp look flashed in Zhu Di's eyes.

The matter of Jinyiwei traitor is of no trivial matter. It not only concerns the reputation of Jinyiwei, but also involves the secrets and safety of the court.

He was quickly thinking of a countermeasure in his mind, and at the same time he was also speculating on the deeper meaning of his father's decree and what impact it would have on his future plans.

The two looked at each other in bewilderment, which seemed to be just a brief moment in Li Heng's view.

But in the hearts of Zhu Gang and Zhu Di, it was surging like a storm.

They all understood that from this moment on, a rigorous investigation concerning the dignity of the royal family and the stability of the court had begun.

The Prince of Jin's Mansion and the Prince of Yan's Mansion are the core figures in this storm.

Seeing that the two had not yet received the order, Li Heng quickly spoke up to remind them, "Your Highnesses, a big event happened in the palace just after you left the capital.

Those criminals had the audacity to sneak into the imperial city and set fire to it. Fortunately, they only burned the cold palace, and neither His Majesty nor the Empress were affected.

Otherwise, given your majesty's temper, the capital would have been in a bloodbath long ago!" (End of this chapter)
