Xie Qian, who was in Wenyuan Pavilion, learned that Zhu Houzhao had inspected the military school, quickly sent someone to notify the Minister of Justice Wang Jianzhi and others. In order to avoid being known by Jiao Fang, he had to keep the secret, so he had to lie to Yang Tinghe and other cabinet ministers. Then he left the palace and waited at the gate of the military school first.

I only realized when I arrived at the local area that the security work in the military school had been taken over by the palace guards. In addition, the Dongchang and Jinyiwei people patrolled everywhere, so it was not as easy as I imagined.

I sent someone to spread it, but no news came out for a long time.

When the guards finally came out to inform us that they could enter, there were not many ministers who had notified them before. Fortunately, the backbone of the civil service group gathered in front of the military school, including Xie Qian and Wang Jianzhi.

"Yu Qiao, be careful when you go in, so as not to conflict with Your Majesty." Wang Jianzhi specially reminded Xie Qian in front of the gate of the Military Academy.

But how could Xie Qian bear it?

Finally, he had the opportunity to meet the saint, and he was determined to vent his anger he had suffered before.

When Xie Qian and Wang Jianzhi entered, they arrived at the office under the guidance of the guards. They were told by Hu Lian, who was waiting there, that Zhu Houzhao had gone to the classroom.

Xie Qian hurriedly took Wang Jianzhi and others to the teaching area, but still no trace of Zhu Houzhao was found. Instead, Shen Xi stood in front of one of the classrooms, as if waiting for someone.

"Where is your Majesty?"

Xie Qian looked around again, then looked at Shen Xi and asked.

Shen Xi bowed deeply and then shook his head: "Your Majesty left after inspection and failed to wait for Master Xie to come."

Xie Qian suddenly became angry and said, "How could it be such a coincidence? When I came, Your Majesty left? His Majesty had sent someone to inform us to come in and meet us... Since you know that I would come, why didn't you try to keep him? Just let Your Majesty leave?"

Wang Jianzhi quickly persuaded: "Yu Qiao, don't be angry."

While speaking, Wang Jianzhi kept winking at Xie Qian, as if he was saying to Xie Qian, "Please pay attention to the occasion when speaking. Why is Shen Zhihou also the Minister of War? There are so many ministers around him, so you question them in public. Isn't it a joke?

Xie Qian was furious. He was repeatedly released by Zhu Houzhao. Now he finally got the chance to meet the saint, but he was avoided by the emperor.

Shen Xi looked at Xie Qian and sighed: "I want to keep you, but as soon as Your Majesty arrived here, Liu Jin said something in His Majesty's ear. His Majesty's face changed drastically, and then he hurried away, even giving up the scheduled speech to the students... I really have no choice but to do anything."

"well!"

Hearing this, Xie Qian knew that it was Liu Jin who was playing tricks and could not blame Shen Xi all the time.

He just held up a stream of evil fire, and he vented it and disappeared as angry as before, but he was depressed and in a daze, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

A long time later, Xie Qian looked at Shen Xi and asked, "Then have you advised Your Majesty? Alas, forget it, it's useless to ask. Apart from the Ministry of War and the Military Academy, I'm afraid you have never mentioned anything else to Your Majesty, right?"

Shen Xi remained silent, which was equivalent to admitting Xie Qian's statement.

Xie Qian's face was a little ashamed and annoyed. After a while, he sighed: "It seems that I can't count on you anymore. Did Your Majesty leave any words...involves in court?"

Shen Xi did not respond and continued to remain silent.

Xie Qian's face changed and finally said angrily: "Mingzhong, let's go, this kid is not the same as us. Some things still need to be counted on yourself and not rely on others... We should ignore the affairs of the Ministry of War in the future. They have a hard wing and just want to fly alone!"

After saying that, Xie Qian took Wang Jianzhi and others away.

Xie Qian had said some serious words before, but basically he said when he was having a little emotional relationship with Chen Xi in private.

He said in front of everyone that although it was not the first time, this time was the most serious time, and he had already parted ways with Chen Xi.

Xie Qian brought people here. Even if these civil servants belong to the same camp as Xie Qian, they are still related to their closeness and distantness, so it is not uncommon for the incident to spread.

Soon the court and the country knew that Xie Qian said something bad in front of Shen Xi. This pair of teachers, students and ministers who seemed determined had an unpleasant cause of unpleasantness because of the saint's incident. Some people tried to help make up for it, but more people watched the fire from the other side of the river and were ready to watch jokes.

Xie Qian was popular in the court, especially after becoming the chief minister, many people had gaps because Xie Qian had food and food were not changed. Anyone who had conflicts with Xie Qian was waiting to see Xie Qian fight with Chen Xi, and wait to see the internalization of the civil service group.

Liu Jin accompanied Zhu Houzhao back to the leopard room and went back to the palace.

As soon as he arrived at the Silijian, Liu Jin learned about the situation in the military school from Wei Bin who came to inform the news. Liu Jin was proud: "Our family had expected that Mr. Xie and Mr. Shen would have a dispute sooner or later. Who said that Mr. Shen can stand alone now, and there is no need for Mr. Xie to protect him?"

Wei Bin asked tentatively: "Eunuch Liu, what happened to Your Majesty in today's Military Academy, why did you say goodbye in a hurry?"

Liu Jin's face was cold: "You can only ask what you should ask. If you don't ask, you should pretend to be ignorant even if you know... Our family doesn't want to leak the secret matters and others know it."

"Yes, yes!" Wei Bin looked embarrassed, and only then realized that he had lost his value and could no longer gain the respect he had in front of Liu Jin.

In the leopard room, Zhu Houzhao was instigated by Liu Jin and rushed back in order to see someone. It was Qian Ning, who had been inquiring about the whereabouts of Mrs. Zhong before.

This time Qian Ning brought back the exact news about Mrs. Zhong.

Qian Ning carefully checked the people of the coastal areas and learned that Mrs. Zhong's family had gone to Liaodong from Beitang. Qian Ning immediately sent someone to Liaodong for inquiries. Although no one was found yet, Qian Ning believed that it was enough to take the news to Zhu Houzhao to report.

Sure enough, Zhu Houzhao looked solemn after listening to the report.

"...Madam Zhong really went to Liaodong with her family?" After thinking for a while, Zhu Houzhao looked at Qian Ning with an incredible look and asked sternly, "Isn't it a storm again this time?"

Qian Ning replied: "Your Majesty, this investigation has been verified correctly. Some local people have witnessed it with their own eyes that the witness has been taken to the capital by Weichen... Even if Weichen is brave, he will not dare to lie to His Majesty on this issue."

Zhu Houzhao sighed and said, "I have been searching hard for so long, and I have almost forgotten this woman. Now that I finally know her whereabouts, I am very unwilling to accept it... How confident are you to bring people back?"

Qian Ning said: "I have sent someone to the Liaodong area to inquire about the news, but now the land of Liaodong is in the snow and ice. After the Zhong family arrived in Liaodong, they hid their names. I am afraid it will be difficult to find the person in a short time. If everything goes well, it should be found within one or two months!"

"Is it still going to take one or two months?"

Zhu Houzhao's face looked very bad, obviously thinking that Qian Ning's deadline was too long.

Qian Ning said with a bitter face: "Weichen has dispatched people as much as possible, but Weichen does not have much authority and cannot mobilize local governments and garrisons, and many times... are powerless!"

Zhu Houzhao said sternly: "Then I will give you power. I have appointed you as the imperial envoy to go to Liaodong. During this period, the Liaodong government and garrison troops will be controlled by you. I... I have appointed you to Liaodong for business. If you fail to complete your responsibilities, come and see you!"

“Yes, yes!”

Qian Ning thought that he could get out of here by reporting these things, but unexpectedly caused him a lot of trouble and needed to go to the barren land in Liaodong to find Mrs. Zhong.

Zhu Houzhao stood there with an angry look on her face, with a look of letting down anger.

After a long time, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Since the woman has been found, can he know who helped her escape?"

Qian Ning thought of Liu Jin's previous instructions and gritted his teeth and said, "As far as I know, Minister Chen of the Ministry of War cannot escape!"

Zhu Houzhao's face suddenly twisted a little and said, "You say it again, who?"

"Minister of War Shen!"

Qian Ning insisted according to Liu Jin's explanation, "From the beginning of this matter, the people from the Ministry of War planned secretly and helped Mrs. Zhong and her family escape. Even the ships to the sea were searched for by the Ministry of War. In order to avoid being known and being cautious in doing things, Shangshu Chen left no evidence..."

Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "Why are you so sure without leaving any evidence? What about witnesses and evidence?"

Qian Ning swallowed, where did he get the evidence? It was just that Liu Jin told him to say so and had to obey the order. He didn't know how to reply for a while.

"Bang!" Zhu Houzhao washed the pen in front of her and shouted angrily, "I asked you, can't you, a dog?"

Qian Ning kowtowed quickly: "Go back to Your Majesty, I went to investigate Mrs. Zhong's behavior before, but was ruthless by the Jingjiwei. Just imagine who has this ability to obstruct me except the Ministry of War? Someone has proved that Shangshu Chen has sponsored some people to commit crimes. These people are old subordinates of Shangshu Chen and have been invisible to help Shangshu Chen do things in secret!"

Zhu Houzhao frowned: "What kind of bird evidence is this? In this way... what are the secret plans of the Ministry of War you mentioned and the help of finding ships are all your guesses out of thin air?"

Qian Ning kowtowed and said, "Reply to Your Majesty, although there is no conclusive evidence, I really don't dare to talk nonsense in front of Your Majesty..."

Qian Ning is ready at this moment. If Zhu Houzhao is forced to ask, he will push the blame to Liu Jin. Anyway, he is throwing it away and he has been disgusted by Zhu Houzhao. If he can't get a good end, then his backer Liu Jin will not have any good results.

Qian Ning acted ruthlessly. Even if Liu Jin promoted him, he would not be grateful to Liu Jin.
