Ye Chunqiu heard that Jiang Mian was leaving, but he became more enthusiastic. He even stood up, and his tone seemed to be gone as cold as before. He said as he walked: "Then, I'll give him a gift to Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Mian still looked dark, and Ye Chunqiu left the study side by side with him, while he had only buried his head, his heart full of despair.

It is really difficult to get to this point! I thought that many people would have a way out, but what was sad was that after coming this trip, what he gained was that he knew clearly that there was no way to remedy it, and how could he feel!

And at this moment, he suddenly looked up and said, "Dare you dare to ask Your Highness, have you seen Mr. Li outside the pass?"

Ye Chunqiu was a little surprised. Seeing that Jiang Mian looked lost, he actually had the time to ask Li Dongyang.

Li Dongyang committed a crime of treason. Although Your Majesty was lenient, even so, even if he was Li Dongyang's most confidant disciple, he would not dare to have any connection with Li Dongyang.

But Jiang Mian has come to this point and actually cared about Li Dongyang. How could he not surprise Ye Chunqiu?

Ye Chunqiu glanced at Jiang Mian lightly, but his eyes gradually became less sharp. I have to say that if the two of them had their own positions, Ye Chunqiu felt that this person was still decent.

Ye Chunqiu said: "See you."

"Oh." Jiang Mian thought about it, but it was a little difficult to say: "Is he... okay?"

Ye Chunqiu glanced at him strangely: "Hmm?"

"I have no other intentions, I just ask casually." Jiang Mian sighed, and then said, "I don't actually care about what is right or wrong, but Mr. Li was an old minister during the late emperor. I thought that I admired him very much at the beginning. Although it is regrettable that he has come to this point, I think maybe he has had his last resort."

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but smile. Jiang Mian was really bold enough to dare to speak for Li Dongyang.

Jiang Mian also noticed that he had a little distorted and said, "Don't get me wrong. I don't think Mr. Li did the right thing, I just sighed. How could this loyal minister be so good that he turned into a bad thief?"

Ye Chunqiu, however, four words popped out from his teeth: "The thief is a thief."

Jiang Mian was silent again.

Yes, a thief is a thief. No matter what kind of person Li Dongyang was before, this sentence is not wrong at all.

Jiang Mian sighed again: "But there are many scholars who may not be thieves, they may..."

"They are also thieves. Whether they are thieves is not what Mr. Jiang views, nor how I view them, but how His Majesty looks at them. Whoever is thief is thief!"

Ye Chunqiu finally interrupted Jiang Mian's last effort.

Jiang Mian was a little angry, but instead found some strength and said, "But it is His Highness, the one who affects Your Majesty, is His Highness, the King of Lu."

Ye Chunqiu smiled unanimously. At this time, he had arrived at the middle gate. He watched Jiang Mian leave with a gloomy expression, but Ye Chunqiu's heart was still calm.

The next morning, Ye Chunqiu washed up and entered the palace to thank him.

Zhu Houzhao's anger had not yet dissipated. On his imperial case, there was a list presented by Liu Jin, which involved famous scholars and students involved in the case, as well as a large number of court officials.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Ye Chunqiu, who had just given him a tribute, and said with a little anger: "I heard that the Ye family was lucky that no one was hurt, so I was relieved, but some people were really hateful. A group of people gathered in the academy and colluded with officials from the court. What do they want to do? I will never spare this matter. I will catch all those involved in this matter."

Ye Chunqiu said, "Thank you Your Majesty."

Zhu Houzhao sighed and said with some emotion: "What do you thank me for? Actually, I still thank you. I know your difficulties. I want to be loyal to me, but I will be secretly plotted by these people. How could I not know the thoughts of these people? You don't have to worry anymore, I will make the decision for you in everything."

Ye Chunqiu felt mixed feelings, and at this time, Zhu Houzhao continued, "Now, I have appointed you as King of Lu. I have already greeted him in the past. I will give him another title, and he dare not do anything. I have named you as King of Lu because when I was talking a few days ago, I heard the Hanlins talk about the allusions of Zhou Gongdan. It turns out that this Zhou Gong is what I mean. I want you to be my Duke Zhou and King Wu."

Hearing this, Ye Chunqiu was a little confused. He couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and then said, "Your Majesty, this metaphor is not very appropriate. King Wu died early, so that Duke Zhou assisted King Cheng. Isn't Your Majesty cursing himself?"

"Ah? Is it...is it true?" Zhu Houzhao was also a little confused, with a little embarrassment in his expression. After a moment, he smiled and said, "It's really careless. I only heard half of the allusions, but I forgot that I have another half. Haha, it's okay, it's okay, you are the real deputy general, and my president's life. But this matter is settled. If the matter outside the pass is not taken care of in the future, you will take care of it. Lu is outside the pass. It is not only the vassal of the Ming Dynasty, but also the Ming Dynasty's hand that restricts the world. You are my hand."

"No one in the world can believe it, but I believe in you. This is my promise. You will not let me down, I will not let you down. No matter what gossip, I will not let you down, and I will not let you down, no matter what gossip, no matter what others say."

Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said, "You protect the northern border for me, but I am not here, now I have to build a ship with peace of mind. Every time I make you share my worries, I really feel sorry for me. The world in this map makes me think about it day and night. I really hope that one day I can build a navy as the Emperor Wen period, patroll the West and kill unjust officials. I not only want to be the Tian Khan of the North, but also the King of the Ten Thousand Kings of the West. But don't worry about this, this is my business."

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with Your Majesty's fleet?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "They used the drawings and silver from your Zhenguo Mansion, but they were all taken out of the treasury. I threw all the dividends from the Zhenguo Mansion. This is a total of 20 million taels of silver. You think, why does this silver be like flowing water? Alas..."
