To be honest, Zhu Youxiao was also a little depressed.

He didn't expect that the final direction of things would be like this, Zou Yuanbiao actually died, and he died so inexplicably.

It's a bit of a surprise to say. But now that the matter has come to this, there is no other way but to take one step at a time.

It is impossible to conceal this matter, and after Zhu Youxiao released the news, in just one hour, the news that Zou Yuanbiao died of illness in the edict spread throughout the officialdom of the capital.

When everyone heard the news, their first reaction was disbelief, followed by deep shock, followed by anger.

The hearts of all the civil officials were furious, and the spearhead was directly pointed at Wei Zhongxian in Dongchang.

Although the person died in Jinyiwei's edict, this time no one targeted Jinyiwei, and everyone pointed the finger at Dongchang and Wei Zhongxian.

I don't know if they did it on purpose, or if they really thought so, there were so many questions about the impeachment of Wei Zhongxian, and they were all sent to the palace in just two hours.

For a while, the limelight of Jingshi became more and more intense, and everyone was already very worried, but now Zou Yuanbiao is dead.

If Zou Yuanbiao had been convicted and killed, or had been executed for some crime, maybe everyone would not have made such a fuss.

But now Zou Yuanbiao is so unexplained that he is sick and died in the edict prison, who believes this? Isn't this your old gelding Wei Zhongxian wanting to cover up?

For a time, the officialdom of Jingshi was excited, and countless people demanded that Wei Zhongxian, the murderer, be severely punished, and Han Yi was impeached at the same time.

Zou Yuanbiao's death was more like a fuse, which directly detonated the officialdom in the capital.

Ministry of Industry.

After Zhao Nanxing sent everyone away, he sat on the chair and sat alone in the room for a long time, with a trace of trance in his expression, and more decadence and disbelief.

Why did Zou Yuanbiao die?

This made Zhao Nanxing's belief that he had just strengthened a crack appear.

Zhao Nanxing's gaze was a little loose, and he didn't know if he should continue, and there was some wetness in his cloudy eyes.

Zou Yuanbiao left too suddenly this time, which made people really unacceptable, everyone felt this way, and Zhao Nanxing's feeling was especially urgent.

The Zou Family Lingtang was whimpering at this time, and everyone was in a very low mood.

Han Yi became the minister of funeral, and he started to get busy as soon as possible, and it was not his turn to think about it. Han Yi led people to send Zou Yuanbiao's body home, helped the Zou family build a mourning hall, and invited someone to do things, everything was carried out in an orderly manner.

Zhu Youxiao also sent someone to the Zou family, and it was Chen Hong, the companion, who came. But the air pressure of the Zou family is still a little low, only the cry of the Zou family spreads far away, and the others have a calm face and no one speaks.

Gao Panlong rushed to Zou Yuanbiao's mourning hall as soon as possible, and his expression didn't know whether it was sad or sad, maybe more angry. Gao Panlong's gaze at Han Yi was very unkind.

There is also Liu Yijing, a cabinet scholar, who was also glared at by many people.

Although these people didn't dare to say anything in front of Liu Yijing, the expressions on their faces said it all.

For a moment, the atmosphere was low and oppressive, but it was faintly shrouded in anger.

Chen Hong couldn't stay in this depressing place anymore, so he found an excuse to sneak back to the Qianqing Palace in advance.

Zhu Youxiao listened to Chen Hong's 1510 report, and the expression on his face did not change.

After all, there is a death in life, and it depends on how you die. Zou Yuanbiao died a little bit, and even Zhu Youxiao didn't expect him to end up like this.

Now that people are dead, some things are not easy to do, and Zhu Youxiao has some headaches.

But there are still some things to be done, and there is no room for negotiation. After laying out the layout for so long and doing so many things, it is naturally impossible to give up so easily.

But it's not possible to do it now, take it slowly. Things are very noisy, the Donglin Party has a great tendency to counterattack, and everyone else has also reined in.

The dead are big, and they can't make a fuss at this time, and besides, people are dead, and now they fall into the well, it seems very immoral, so there is a tendency for the DPRK and China to ease up for a while.

Of course, this is only on the surface. Secretly, the Donglin Party wanted to take the opportunity to turn over, and even wanted to take the opportunity to bring down Wei Zhongxian and take back what he had lost.

But it is impossible for others to look at it like this, although others do not act on the surface, but there are no less means in private.

All of a sudden, the whole court and the wild mountains were about to rain, and Zhu Youxiao continued to prepare for his big wedding, and did not bring the matter to the table.

At the same time, Liaodong.

Xiong Tingbi looked at the Wei Dynasty in front of him, and his face was full of smiles.

His Majesty gave himself a reward, and by the way, he made himself the master, and those who framed him were all imprisoned in Dongchang, and even Yuan Yingtai and Wang Huazhen were arrested.

Xiong Tingbi was in a good mood and was very happy.

Wei Chao on the side looked tired, just forcing a smile.

This kind of poor running in Liaodong is very hard, this is not the key, the key is that he has no way to get close to the emperor now, Wei Zhongxian is like the sky. If you run like this for a few more days, it is estimated that you will completely lose the emperor, and then your future will be worried.

"Grandpa Wei, I'll invite Grandpa Wei to drink." Xiong Tingbi said with a smile.

Wei Chao could only follow with a smile on his face, there was really no other way. People are already here, and they can't help but give face.

Although he was not willing to move, Wei Chao could only follow Xiong Tingbi out with a strong spirit.

After learning that the court had come to reward them, they had already made a fuss, and the generals who got the news were smiling one by one.

The generals of their own family have cards, which is a thing that everyone is happy about; The court has given a lot of rewards, which is also something to be happy about, at least everyone will no longer be suspicious of the court for no reason.

With such a strong top boss, everyone will inevitably have a much better life in the future.

In the dead of night, Wang Xiangqian stood at the head of the city of Shenyang, looking into the distance expressionlessly.

His figure was a little thin, and he seemed a little lonely in the dark night, and seemed to be out of place with the lively scene below. But he stood there by himself, and he seemed much more harmonious.

Since coming to Liaodong, he has walked a few places and looked at the situation in Liaodong.

Overall, the situation in Liaodong is not good. Wang Xiangqian had heard some of the situation in Liaodong before, and he had also done some understanding before he came, and he was ready in his heart.

But after he really arrived at the place, Wang Xiangqian found that his preparations were still a little inadequate. The situation in Liaodong is worse than he imagined, and he does not have the conditions to fight back at all.

Not to mention counterattacking, it is best to be able to hold it. Wang Xiangqian had some worries in his heart, first, he was worried that Liaodong would not be able to hold it, and second, he was worried that some people in the court would do something.

You must know that Liaodong has always been unstable, and the most influential factor is in the imperial court.

Sighing softly, Wang Xiangqian turned around and walked down, and said, "Prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, I want to go to the court." ”

Wang Xiangqian is going to inform the court of the situation here, let them know what the situation is here, cut off some of their messy thoughts, at least let the emperor know, don't be easily fooled.

Someone next to him agreed: "Yes, my lord." ”

After returning to the room, Wang Xiangqian asked people to light the lamp and start writing a question book. Although he was very worried in his heart, in this question book, he still tried not to mix his personal emotions, otherwise it would be easy to make mistakes.

When Wang Xiangqian wrote the inscription, there was actually a commotion in Beijing, and no one said anything about Liaodong.

Everyone is busy with party fighting, who has the heart to take care of Liaodong?

Some people are thinking about self-preservation, and some people are thinking about bringing down others. Everything went this way, and no one cared what was going on in Liaodong anymore.

Zou Yuanbiao's funeral is going very well, and the cabinet has already given a solution.

The imperial court gave Zou Yuan the nickname, and no one mentioned the previous case again. The honor that should have been given was also given, and the Zou family also went back with the coffin, preparing to transport the body back to their hometown for burial, for which Zhu Youxiao also asked Chen Hong to send a lot of ice over.

Fortunately, the weather has not yet reached the hottest time, otherwise it would not have been sent back at all.

Zou Yuanbiao's body is gone, but the rest of the things have to be done, and the whole court is waiting. The trend of impeaching Wei Zhongxian is intensifying, and no one dares to speak for him anymore, and everyone seems to feel that Wei Zhongxian is about to fall.

Ouchi of the Imperial Palace.

Zhu Youxiao summoned the ministers of the imperial court, mainly the six scholars and his cabinet scholars.

This is a small meeting of the imperial court, also known as a court council, where the emperor and his ministers decide things.

Of course, it was mainly the important ministers of the court, that is, the central ministers, who participated in this meeting. The ministers who can enter this place can be regarded as the top power holders of the imperial court, and you can only listen to the others.

"Today's deliberation is mainly due to the recent public opinion, and I want to hear your opinions." Zhu Youxiao said softly.

No one spoke, and the ministers were reluctant to come forward. It doesn't seem right to say anything at this time. Of course, this refers to ministers who are not so determined, or who have no position.

Others need to step up. You have to stand up, too.

Gao Panlong walked out at this time, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Zhongxian is mad and abuses the punishment against Zou Yuanbiao. Zou Yuanbiao is an important minister of the imperial court, he is old, how can he suffer such humiliation? What's more, Zou Yuanbiao died due to excessive punishment, and the ministers asked Wei Zhongxian to be severely punished. ”

For Gao Panlong to say this, there was no surprise to the people present, he did have a position to say so.

After Gao Panlong. Another person also stood up, and this person was Sun Shenxing, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Sun Shenxing also opened his mouth and said: "Wei Zhongxian is cunning and treacherous, deceiving superiors and subordinates, and punishing the ministers of the court to death, and the ministers think that they should be severely punished. ”

After these two people stood up, others came forward one after another, with the same attitude and severely punished Wei Zhongxian.

This has been pressed on the head of the cabinet, and several cabinet scholars also have to express their positions, if they are vague on this matter, I am afraid that it will not work.

Especially Han Yi, if he can put the blame on Wei Zhongxian's head, it will be the best result for him. As for whether His Majesty wants to protect Wei Zhongxian, this has nothing to do with him, and he just needs to show his attitude.

Just before Han Yi could speak, the other cabinet scholars in the cabinet had already stood up.

Shi Jikai was the first to walk out, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers think that Wei Zhongxian should be severely punished, removed from office, and punished by the ministers. ”
