    During this period of time in Zhengde, I felt that I was angry a lot, and it seemed that troubles always came together.

    The matter of the "Embroidery Thief" has just come to an end, but the Queen Mother has another problem here.

    Liu Jin found out about Cao Zhengchun's theft of the Queen Mother's "Tianxiang Cardamom" and told Emperor Zhengde.

    Emperor Zhengde could tolerate his slaves being corrupt and bending the law, and even framed Zhongliang, but he would never allow his slaves to betray their masters.

    ??In the final analysis, eunuchs are people who the emperor pushes to the front to fight with cabinet ministers. The emperor gives eunuchs great power to serve himself.

    An excellent eunuch may be incompetent or despicable, but he must never be disloyal to the emperor.

    When Emperor Zhengde heard that Cao Zhengchun had stolen the "Tian Fragrant Cardamom" from the Queen Mother, he was angry not because of the "Tian Fragrant Cardamom", but because Cao Zhengchun's behavior had touched his bottom line.

    The angry Zhengde immediately sent someone to take Cao Zhengchun to Qianqing Palace.

    It¡¯s ¡°pledge¡±, not ¡°please¡±.

    When Cao Zhengchun came to the "Qianqing Palace", he saw Zhengde's face as if he wanted to eat someone. He did not defend himself, but knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty.

    "This slave deserves to die. He is obsessed with evil. Please atone for your sins, Your Majesty!"

    After a period of time, the anger in Emperor Zhengde's heart also subsided a little. Seeing Cao Zhengchun's positive attitude of admitting his mistakes, his anger was relieved by another three points.

    "Slave dog, who gave you the courage to steal the master's things? If you can steal the Queen Mother's "Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom" today, why don't you steal my dragon chair tomorrow?"

    Cao Zhengchun was so frightened that he trembled all over and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I know my mistake. Your Majesty, please don't make the dragon body angry!"

    When Emperor Zhengde heard Cao Zhengchun's words of concern for him, his anger decreased even more.

    "Tell me, what are you doing, you little slave, stealing the 'Tianxiang Cardamom'?" Emperor Zhengde leaned on the dragon chair, his tone a little calmer.

    Cao Zhengchun suddenly said with tears in his voice: "Your Majesty, I have been poor since I was a child. I was sent to the palace. I haven't seen my mother for decades. Some time ago, I heard that my mother is seriously ill. She was born as a son and cannot show filial piety. I can only  Try to send some valuable medicinal materials as a filial piety!

    But my mother's condition never got better, and the servant happened to hear that the "Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom" in the hands of the Queen Mother had the effect of bringing the dead back to life, so she became malicious.

    "I cannot absolve myself of the blame for this matter. Please punish me severely!"  "

    When Zhengde heard Cao Zhengchun's reasons, his anger was reduced to the last two points.

    Lin Li and Liu Jin on the side, listening to Cao Zhengchun's sophistry, knew clearly that he was talking nonsense, but they couldn't refute it openly!

    Cao Zhengchun was worthy of being one of the personal eunuchs who brought up Emperor Zhengde from a young age. He knew Emperor Zhengde's temperament very well and knew that he was extremely filial to his mother. As long as he heard that he had stolen "Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom" to save his mother, no matter how serious the crime was, he would  Eliminate 50%!

    What's more, the matter of stealing "Tianxiang Cardamom" seems serious, but in fact it is not a big crime. Thefts by eunuchs and maids in the palace happened frequently, and Emperor Zhengde could not stop it.

    The most important thing about this matter is Cao Zhengchun's loyalty to the emperor. Zhengde is not afraid of Cao Zhengchun stealing, but is afraid of him betraying his master.

    Now Cao Zhengchun has a positive attitude towards pleading guilty. Although stealing is wrong, he can save his mother, which is considered excusable!

    ¡°In addition, Cao Zhengchun¡¯s status is special, so how to deal with it all depends on Zhengde¡¯s words.

    Although the eunuch group has great power, they are actually the emperor's slaves. What they want to do depends on the emperor's words, and the courtiers have nothing to do!

    Liu Jin didn¡¯t want Emperor Zhengde to let Cao Zhengchun off easily, so he said:

    ¡°Your Majesty, I have heard that ¡®Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom¡¯ is a holy medicine for healing, but it has little effect on illnesses. Since Lord Cao¡¯s mother is seriously ill, using ¡®Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom¡¯ is useless!¡±

    When Emperor Zhengde heard Liu Jin's words, his anger showed signs of rising again.

    Cao Zhengchun hurriedly said: "My servant is confused because he is concerned. He does not know the specific efficacy of 'Tianxiang Cardamom'. He only thought it could save my mother's life. Unfortunately, it backfired. My mother died of illness not long ago!"

    When Emperor Zhengde heard that Cao Zhengchun's mother had died, he couldn't help but think of the scene of his father's death. At that time, he was devastated. It was Cao Zhengchun who accompanied him day and night to get through those days.

    When Zhengde thought of Cao Zhengchun's kindness, his anger was completely extinguished!

    Lin Li, who had been watching with cold eyes, knew that Cao Zhengchun had finally passed this test, at least his life was saved.

    "Your Majesty, now that the 'Tianxiang Cardamom' has been used by Eunuch Cao, I am afraid that my injury will not be healed for a while. I am worried that Gu Santong will continue to harm the martial arts!" Lin Li finally stood up.?, said to Emperor Zhengde.

    Lin Li no longer expects the "Tianxiang Cardamom" issue to overthrow Cao Zhengchun, but he can't make it easy for him!

    It happened that Zhang Yong ran into the "Qianqing Palace" at this time and brought bad news to Zhengde!

    "Gu Santong defeated the heroes at Shaoshi Mountain. The eight major martial arts sects suffered heavy losses. I heard that the evil villain Gu Santong has come to the capital!" Zhang Yong reported to Emperor Zhengde.

    "What, Gu Santong actually defeated the eight major sects, who else in the world can capture him!"

    Emperor Zhengde did not expect that he would one day worry about a man in the world!

    "Your Majesty, people in the capital are in panic now. They all feel that the arrival of the ancient three links will definitely cause a storm in the city!"

    Emperor Zhengde said angrily: "I will offer a reward to anyone who can capture Gu San Tong, regardless of life or death, I will give him ten thousand taels of gold, and I won't even be stingy with a title!"

    Lin Li frowned and said, "Absolutely not. If your Majesty really issues this edict, I'm afraid everyone in the world will think that the imperial court is afraid of Gu Santong and is unable to catch the murderer. This will damage the imperial court's prestige!"

    Emperor Zhengde felt a little resentful towards Cao Zhengchun at this time and said: "It's all my fault for this dog slave who secretly stole the 'Tianxiang Cardamom'. Otherwise, with the martial arts of the emperor's uncle, how could he not be able to capture a small ancient three links!"

    Lin Li coughed at the right moment, then stopped and said: "If I am willing to die to share the worries of the imperial court, even if I risk my life, I will never let Gu Santong go unpunished!"

    At this time, Cao Zhengchun suddenly said: "Your Majesty, please let me serve my crime! Even if my body is shattered and my bones die together with the ancient three links, I will not hesitate!"

    Emperor Zhengde said with some concern: "Can you do it? That ancient three links became rampant in the world twenty years ago, and even the late emperor had a headache!"

    Cao Zhengchun vowed: "I am willing to issue a military order. If I cannot catch Gu Santong, I am willing to die to apologize!"

    Seeing that Cao Zhengchun was so determined, Zhengde felt a little moved in his heart. Lin Li then added fire:

    "I am willing to assist Eunuch Cao and arrest Gu Santong together!"

    Emperor Zhengde worriedly said: "Uncle, your health is okay!"

    Lin Li said solemnly: "Even if your body is broken into pieces, you must serve the imperial court!"

    Zhengde was overjoyed and immediately said to Lin Li: "If the emperor's uncle can solve the court's urgent needs, I will be richly rewarded!"

    Then, Zhengde said to Cao Zhengchun: "The arrest of Gu Santong this time is mainly focused on the emperor's uncle, and you, a dog slave, will help from the side. If there is any mistake, I will not be lenient!"

    Lin Li was polite, then said goodbye to Zhengde, left the palace, and prepared to "capture" Gu Santong.

    When he just left the palace, he heard Cao Zhengchun's voice behind him.
