Xu Qian returned to Beijing with the investigative mission to Beizhou and the coffin of the King of Zhenbei. When the palace officials reported to Emperor Jing, he was fishing leisurely, looking at ease.The palace officials had no choice but to carefully invite the ministers to see him.Zheng Xinghuai, the chief envoy of Chuzhou, described the truth of the "Blood-stained Three Thousand Miles" tragedy in detail, but Emperor Jing did not believe it.Several ministers joined forces to impeach King Zhenbei, proving his ambition.

When Emperor Jing heard that 380,000 Chuzhou people had died, Emperor Jing was indifferent. However, when he heard that the King of Zhenbei had passed away, he ran out barefoot to see the corpse.Emperor Jing opened the coffin and called out to his younger brother. The ministers looked at each other, knowing that Emperor Jing had no intention of convicting him.Xu Qian stepped forward, loudly stated the crimes of King Zhenbei, and implored the emperor to seek justice for the people of Chuzhou.Emperor Jing pointed angrily at Xu Qi'an and threatened to kill him. He placed a sharp knife on Zheng Xinghuai's neck. Zheng Xinghuai remained calm and composed, saying that his whole family was dead and he had no intention of living alone.Emperor Jing dropped his sword and shouted back everyone.

Xu Qi'an met with Wei Yuan and apologized for not reporting on his duties.Wei Yuan said frankly that if he had known that King Zhenbei was obstructing him, Emperor Jing sent him to investigate the case. It was just a routine matter and the result was not important.Unexpectedly, Xu Qi'an actually killed King Zhenbei first. King Zhenbei's divine power was close to the second level. He slaughtered the city just for spiritual power and intended to attack the Kui tribe.Wei Yuan said that Xu Qi'an could just reap the benefits, but Xu Qi'an questioned, if King Zhenbei sacrificed his life in attacking the Kui tribe, how could he be convicted?

Wei Yuan once again mentioned the art of forbearance, and Xu Qi'an nodded and accepted the teaching.Wei Yuan made a long-term plan, and Xu Qi'an accepted the order and left.

On that day, Mr. Shofu should go to Yunlu Academy to participate in the poetry competition, and promised to actively compose poems in the new year, hoping to be the best.Unexpectedly, Wang Simu reported the changes in the court. Xu Xinyin changed his cowardice, rode a carriage to the palace gate, and read ethics and morals loudly, which impressed the chief minister.

Xu Xinyin kept talking for two or three hours. The eunuch wanted to punish the crime, so the chief assistant took refuge and applied for a face-to-face meeting. However, the emperor did not see him and instead ordered the chief assistant to dismiss the accompanying ministers.After the chief assistant left, Emperor Jing ordered the eunuch to record the names of the ministers who had not petitioned that day.

The emperor turned a deaf ear to the advice of hundreds of officials.When Lin'an learned of this, he went to his father's palace and knelt down to beg Guang Na for advice. The imperial concubine panicked and persuaded him to leave.

Xu Qian returned home and was warmly entertained by his family.After the meal, Xu New Year and Xu Qi'an analyzed the emperor's recent behavior and felt that he did it deliberately. Xu Qi'an recalled the scene at that time and felt even more suspicious.
