Chapter 211: Scalp tingling

Zhou Zheng didn't know that his performance had already caused a high-level fight, and Er Cao, Cui Chengxiu and other bigwigs entered the palace one by one.

After writing the second recital, Zhou Zheng read it for a while, and then prepared to get up and go to eat.

Liu Liuzhen happened to come back from outside, and accompanied Zhou Zheng as he walked: "Second Young Master, the opening ceremony of Jiujiang Pavilion is scheduled for September 16, and I have sent people to send out invitations for those who should be invited, and there are still some that need to be invited by the Second Young Master in person." ”

Zhou Zheng thought about the person to invite and said, "Well, I'll go and invite." You have to prepare the books and so on, put them according to my plan, waterproofing, fire prevention, etc., and do not have any problems. Kou Huaiyi and the others should add some of their salaries, and the twenty rooms I left behind can be cleaned up, and they can live in them without charging rent......"

Liu Liuzhen wrote it down carefully, and then said, "Well, I wrote it down." By the way, Second Young Master, Shangguan Lie seems to have heard that you brought Zhang Heyi into the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he was a little angry. ”

"Tantrums?"

Zhou Zheng was stunned, does Shangguan Lie have anything to do with him? Is Zhou Zheng still their family's father-in-law, and what kind of temper do you have?

Liu Liuzhen looked at Zhou Zheng's expression and said, "Second Young Master, I'm afraid that Shangguan Boss won't be able to survive Shangguan Lie, so I ask the Second Young Master to give you a wake-up." ”

Zhou Zheng hummed, his eyes thoughtful.

Shangguan Xun is now his right-hand man in business, and he has to give enough face.

Coming to the back hall, Zhou Zhengdao: "In this way, you tell that kid that I will be released next year, let him read some books, and I will take him away next year." ”

Liu Liuzhen looked at the dining room and said, "I made a note, I still have to go to Zhouji, second young master, I'll go first." ”

Zhou Zheng nodded and stepped into the dining room.

Zhou Ding's craftsmanship is very good, the meals are different every day, and they are better than the original cook's cooking, and the three fathers and sons of the Zhou family are very satisfied with this.

……

Early the next morning, Zhou Zheng walked into the Metropolitan Procuratorate with a notebook.

Before stepping into the corridor of Zhejiang Road, the familiar tension struck again.

Zhou Zheng observed the surroundings and entered the Zhejiang Dao Corridor.

Zhang Heyi hurriedly greeted with a solemn expression, and while opening the class room, he carefully observed the surroundings.

Zhou Zheng did not move and entered the class room.

Zhang Heyi hurriedly closed the door, walked around Zhou Zheng's desk, and said in a low voice: "My lord, something happened." ”

"Say." Zhou Zheng sat on the chair and looked at him and said lightly.

Zhang Heyi hesitated and said, "It is said that last night, the cabinet elders, the officials of the six ministries, and our director were all called into the palace, and it is said that the emperor was very angry. ”

'Is it my transcript?' ’

Zhou Zheng muttered to himself in his heart, his face was as usual, and said, "Go on." ”

Zhang Heyi seemed to have some intention of inviting merit, and deliberately said half of the words, listening to Zhou Zheng's words, he hurriedly said: "Yes." I don't know the specific situation, but it was rumored in the station early in the morning that Li Guopu was going to be promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. ”

Zhou Zheng blinked, a little unresponsive.

If it was caused by his playbook, shouldn't it be Cui Chengxiu, and Er Cao had one side defeated? How could it be that Li Guopu was promoted?

The military department is in charge of the soldiers, the criminal department is in charge of the prison, the official department is in charge of the officer's hat, the household department is in charge of money and food, the Ministry of Industry is in charge of engineering, and the Ministry of Rites is in charge of etiquette.

That's a lot of foreshadowing. Zhou Zheng whispered in his heart, maybe as soon as the new emperor ascended the throne, Li Guopu would enter the cabinet.

"What's going on?" Zhou Zheng thought for a while and asked.

Zhang Heyi said: "Not for the time being." ”

Zhou Zheng shook his head in his heart, Zhang Heyi was still too tender in the end, far inferior to Yao Tongshun.

"Listen more and watch more, talk less and do less, don't deliberately inquire, don't deliberately do anything, guard against everyone, understand?" Zhou Zheng looked at Zhang Heyi and said with a serious expression.

Zhang Heyi seemed to hear Zhou Zheng's dissatisfaction with him, and hurriedly said: "It's the adult, the villain remembers." ”

Zhou Zheng hummed, took out the notebook from his arms, and said, "Send it up." ”

This is Zhou Zheng's impeachment of Cui Chengxiu and Tian Ergeng's transcript.

Zhang Heyi took it and said, "Yes, the villain retired." ”

Zhou Zheng watched Zhang Heyi leave, sitting in the class room, thinking about this change in the court situation.

Fang Zhuangli resigned, and a position was vacated in the Sixth Ministry, but Li Guopu was cheaper, not the eunuchs.

What does this mean?

Didn't Er Cao say that he was going to resign? Now that Li Guopu has taken the throne, why did these two people stop moving?

Zhou Zheng could think that there must be a lot of things in it, but he couldn't guess it.

Now the whole capital is in turmoil, and some people are panicked and stumbling like headless flies; There are even some people who seem to see an opportunity and jump up and down, both nervous and lively.

Zhou Zheng sat for a while, left the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and turned back to Zhou Ji.

Halfway through, Meng Hezhou quietly appeared, pulled him in a corner and turned a dark place, handed him a package, and said in a low voice: "The confessions of those three people, and a few account books." ”

Zhou Zheng weighed it, it was quite heavy, and said, "Lock the three of them first, it will be useful later." ”

Meng Hezhou looked at Zhou Zheng, hesitated, and said, "There are too many people involved, and the official positions are very high, you have to be cautious." ”

Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "Don't worry." ”

Meng Hezhou didn't say much and quietly left.

Zhou Zheng returned to Zhou Ji with the package, and on the second floor, slowly looked at the confessions and account books of the three people.

Under this look, it is secretly staggering.

The Ming treasury allocates about three million taels of silver every year, but in the confessions of these three people, there are more than one million taels of deduction, embezzlement, and embezzlement!

For example, last year's repair of the Yellow River, more than 120 people participated in the distribution of spoils, the most involved were 780,000 yuan, and the less was 23 taels.

"Tsk, it's really rotten......" Zhou Zheng shook his head, it was not easy for the Ming Dynasty to hold on to it to this extent.

Zhou Zheng put these things away and locked them in the cabinet below. Then got up, left the postscript, went to the Han Mansion, and visited Han Cheng.

At the same time, Zhou Zheng's second recital, which was not blocked, entered the General Political Envoy Department smoothly, and then entered the cabinet.

Zhou Zheng's recital, the impeachment is Cui Chengxiu and Tian Ergeng, Cui Chengxiu's crimes, the evidence is very clear, detailed, and almost irrefutable. As for Tian Ergeng, Zhou Zheng only mentioned it in one stroke, and the crime was 'torture to extract confessions and frame courtiers'.

Perhaps it is because the government and the opposition have been too disturbed recently, and there are too many impeachment scripts, but Zhou Zheng's scripts have no special treatment at all, and according to the normal procedures, they have turned around and been made public in the Department of General Affairs.

To say that such an ordinary piece of music is nothing, it is everywhere, but many people quickly associate the content of this music book with yesterday's rumor, and then speculate that the music book was written by Zhou Zheng.

Immediately, the government and the opposition set off a huge turmoil, and the eunuchs naturally jumped to their feet, and in a fit of rage, they demanded severe punishment for Zhou Zheng.

On the other side, Li Guopu and others were overjoyed, and some Qingliu immediately followed the book, quoting the content of Zhou Zheng's book, detailing and expanding.

-for-tat, as if the two forces are about to face each other!

However, the place where the incident took place, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was unusually quiet, and those who supervised the imperial history were asked to be silent and not to participate.

The person concerned, Zhou Zheng, didn't know that this recital had caused such a big movement, and was busy contacting those great Confucians and inviting them to participate in the opening ceremony of Jiujiang Pavilion.

waited until the evening before Zhou Zheng ended the trip and prepared to return home.

On a road from Chang'an Avenue to Beiju Xianfang, Zhou Zheng was stopped.

Tian Ergeng.

Tian Ergeng was tall and mighty, and he stood alone in the middle of the road, and there was no one else, and no one else passed on this road.

Zhou Zheng saw him, his eyes were vigilant, but his face remained unchanged.

"You're not going to deal with me, are you?" Tian Ergeng's voice was loud, but he had a sense of gloom and compassion.

Zhou Zheng had already expected it, and said lightly: "I originally just wanted to impeach Cui Chengxiu, your name was asked by the Metropolitan Procuratorate to be added by me." ”

Tian Ergeng didn't know whether to believe it or not, sneered, and said: "I don't care what your idea is, I will only give you three days, and after three days, either Cui Chengxiu will be imprisoned, or you will be imprisoned for him." ”

Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, three days later, it was almost before and after the apocalypse died.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Zheng said: "Three days is too urgent, you can also see it, there is something pressing on it." ”

Tian Ergeng said: "I don't understand this, I just need you to know, if Cui Chengxiu doesn't fall, you have to die, which is also the meaning of the above." ”

Zhou Zheng's expression was slightly condensed, and he understood.

These three days were not given to him by Tian Ergeng, but won by Tian Ergeng, and this pressure is likely to come from Cui Chengxiu or Wei Zhongxian, so if Cui Chengxiu does not fall within three days, it will be Zhou Zheng who will die.

"Okay, I got it." Zhou Zhengdao.

Tian Ergeng looked at Zhou Zheng again, and sneered: "Don't play tricks, otherwise you will die a miserable death!" ”

After Tian Ergeng finished speaking, he strode away.

Zhou Zheng looked at his back with a deep expression.

I said to Tian Ergeng just now that three days was too short, but in fact, it was just that Zhou Zheng was about to bargain, and the death of the apocalypse was in these days, and Zhou Zheng was going to finish these things in these days.

"Let's get started." Zhou Zheng muttered to himself and walked back home as usual.

……

Zhou Zheng's recital is fermenting, or rather, it is the first one he did not send, and countless versions have appeared in the government and the opposition, among which the list of eunuchs is different, and the total number of people is nearly 500 people!

From the celebrant to the cabinet, from the six ministries to the thirteen provinces, and then from the civil officials to the military generals, as well as the honorable ministers, the frontier generals, almost everything, large and small, in the opposition and in the court, all over the Ming Dynasty!

At this special moment, countless people followed the book, almost forming a kind of all-out attack on the eunuchs!

Even Zhou Zheng, the initiator, sat in the study, and his scalp was numb when he heard this.

How can the eunuchs be so easy to provoke, are these people crazy?

Of course, he also knew who was behind the push, and Zhou Zheng could only say that these people were too anxious.

Too much urgency will trigger huge, unpredictable consequences!
