Chapter 24: Crisis
Here it comes!
Zhou Zheng has been waiting, but he didn't expect to wait so late.
Zhou Zheng looked at the family member, thought for a moment, looked at Liu Liuzhen and said: "Liuzhen, you continue to run the tooth line and find five or six of them, two big ones, and a few more small ones." I went back and came out quickly. ”
Liu Liuzhen was worried that something would happen in the house, and said, "Second young master, why don't I go back to the house with you, maybe I can still help?" ”
Zhou Zheng had a very clear judgment of the current situation, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay, you keep running, let's do things overnight, we can't delay it." ”
This is the first time Liu Liuzhen has seen Zhou Zheng's serious expression after he went crazy, and his expression is also solemn, and he said, "Okay, second young master, go back to the house, I'll go!" ”
Zhou Zheng nodded, and then instructed Wei Huaide and a cadre of servants and maidservants, and hurried back to Zhou's mansion.
In the teahouse not far from this street, Cheng Jing saw that Zhou Zheng was leaving the shop and did not come to him, so he couldn't help but sigh lightly and said, "In the end, it's a young man, I don't know the sinister world......
Zhou Zheng didn't sell him the shop, Li Xiaoting was not easy to explain, and he had to find a way to deal with it.
And on the second floor of a restaurant opposite Cheng Economy, Zhong Qinyong, Zhong Fenteng and his son have been looking at Zhou Zheng's shop.
Zhong Fenteng looked at Zhou Zheng's back, poured a sip of wine into his mouth, and said very happily, "Dad, Zhou Zheng must know, you see how embarrassed his back is!" ”
The horizontal flesh on Zhong Qinyong's face moved, his eyes flashed with a dangerous light, and he said, "Let's take this little beast first!" With this little beast in my hands, I have a way to pull Zhou Qingli in! ”
Zhong Fenteng didn't know how much anger he had towards Zhou Zheng, but he was very excited about the faint pain in his liver, gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, give me a good fix for this dog thing, if I don't kill him, I can't get out of this bad breath!" ”
Zhong Qinyong has now become a eunuch, spurned by Qingliu, and his classmates, friends, relatives, friends, teachers and students, and even his family members have written letters to scold and sever relations, and the hatred in his heart for Zhou Qingli and the Zhou family is not much better than that of his son Zhong Fenteng!
The corners of Zhong Qinyong's face twitched, his eyes were cold, and his fierce color was revealed.
……
Zhou Qingli was already waiting in the study, and when she saw Zhou Zheng coming in, there was a hint of condensation on her already cold and dark face.
Zhou Qingli didn't make a detour, and said, "There is a general message from the Taifu Temple to the Ministry of Officials, about you." ”
Zhou Zheng was not surprised, and said, "I already know some news, what is it?" ”
Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng with some surprise, did not ask, and said, "I transferred you to Taifu Temple to be a recorder, and the main book is Zhong Qinyong." ”
Record, seven-grade officials, master book, six-grade, one up and one is obvious.
Zhou Zheng suddenly understood, his face was not in a hurry, and he thought: "This should not be Gu Bingqian's means, it is estimated that it was done by Gu Chi and the Zhong family." ”
Zhou Qingli said, "Well, I think so too. This passage came very suddenly, all the formalities were completed, and when I knew it, it couldn't be changed, and the Taifu Temple asked you to go to the job tomorrow. ”
When Zhou Zheng heard this, he was completely relieved, as long as it was not a secret act, there was room for maneuver.
"How about calling it sick?" Zhou Zheng asked. This is something he has thought about a long time ago, and he doesn't plan to join the company at this time.
Zhou Qingli thought about this method and said, "What I'm worried about is that they have other means. ”
Zhou Zheng said 'um', there is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days.
"Then I'll go?" Zhou Zhengdao. If this kind of normal transfer, even if Zhong Qinyong does something difficult, or even maliciously framed, even if he is imprisoned, he will be washed away in the future, which is his glorious deeds of heroic struggle against the eunuchs, and it is a kind of capital.
Zhou Qingli shook her head resolutely and said, "You don't know the filth in the officialdom, you can't go." I'll find a way to delay for two or three days on the side of the officials, and move around the relationship, so that you are not under Zhong Qinyong. ”
Zhou Zheng nodded indispensably, looked at Father Zhou's tightly knit brows, and said, "Those few resigned?" ”
Zhou Qingli looked up at Zhou Zheng, her face became more and more gloomy, and she nodded silently.
The eunuch party is powerful, and even if it is not the Donglin party, Qingliu in the DPRK has been greatly excluded and attacked, and it is useless to hide far.
Zhou Qingli and the people behind him all want to avoid party disputes, but in a chaotic officialdom, how can there be a clean place, let alone a place like the Ministry of Officials.
Zhou Zheng thought about it seriously and suggested for the third time: "Resign." ”
Zhou Qingli seemed to be a little immune, stood up with a headache, and said, "Let's talk about it, settle your affairs first, and don't be impulsive these days." ”
Zhou Zheng saw that Father Zhou was a little disheartened, hesitated slightly, and comforted: "Dad, if you want to do something, then hold on, don't waver, now is the darkest section before dawn." ”
For Qingliu, this is indeed the darkest time, which has never been seen since Chengzu. But after next year, the eunuchs will be liquidated.
Zhou Zheng rarely shouted the word 'father' since he was 'crazy', Zhou Qingli listened, and then looked at Zhou Zheng's concerned look, and said with relief: "Well, it's a big deal, just resign, don't worry." ”
Seeing this, Zhou Zheng was a little relieved, and suddenly said, "King Xin, are you familiar with Dad?" ”
Zhou Qingli was stunned, thought about it seriously, and said, "King Xin has not yet become a vassal, he lives in the Ten Princes' Mansion, rarely shows up, and his father has never seen him." However, it is said that he has an extraordinary bearing, a corporal of Lixian, and is rare in the clan. ”
The Daming clan is regarded as a pigsty, and there are very few people who can take it out.
Zhou Zheng just nodded and didn't say anything more. Who would have thought that the Emperor of the Apocalypse, who was only in his twenties, would die quickly next year?
Zhou Qingli didn't care either, explained a few words, and left the house in a hurry.
In the past few years, there have been a lot of affairs in the ministry, and as a member of the examination department, the assessment task is naturally heavier.
Zhou Zheng also went out later, he needed to hurry, and things became a little urgent.
It was already dark, and Zhou Zheng met Liu Liuzhe, looking for teeth everywhere.
It's a small tooth shop, in the middle of nowhere. The boss is a woman, with slanted eyebrows, pointed chin, casually raising her eyelids, looking at the clothes first.
The Zhou family is a noble family in the end, Zhou Zheng's clothes are very ordinary, she threw away the melon seeds in her hand, sat on the stool, and said in a less enthusiastic tone, "What are you going to do?" ”
Zhou Zheng didn't care, sat opposite her, and said, "It's a big deal to do business with you." ”
The woman suddenly snorted coldly, rolled her eyes and said, "You see that my place is a place for big business? ”
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "I'll tell you the method, you do what I say, as long as you have enough connections, whether it's ten taels or fifty taels a month, it depends on your ability." ”
The woman's expression changed slightly, she sat up straight and looked at Zhou Zheng, and said suspiciously, "Fifty taels?" You're not kidding me, are you? ”
Zhou Zheng smiled deeply, leaned closer and began to speak.
Half an hour later, the woman sent Zhou Zheng out very warmly, and said, "Oh, Zhou Gongzi, it's really a small place, and my man is not here, otherwise I will definitely treat you well......"
Zhou Zheng politely turned around and went to the next house.
The woman looked at Zhou Zheng's back, with a happy smile on her face, and said to herself, "Why didn't I meet such a handsome little guy who can make money when I was young......"
