For immediate entry, Zhou Zheng is not ready, at least he has to practice reading and writing.

Also, try to stay away from the eunuch party, otherwise Chongzhen will thunder and it will be easy to split him.

Zhong family, Zhong Fenteng hurriedly entered the door, looked at Zhong Qinyong, who was drinking tea in the pavilion, and said happily: "Dad, you are still smart, now the Zhou family is finished!" ”

Zhong Qinyong put down the teacup, a thick man like a martial artist, his movements were polite, and said, "What's the wind outside?" ”

Zhong Fenteng was excited, and said: "It's all said outside, Zhou Qingli is a villain who sells his reputation at both ends of the snake and rat, yesterday he pretended to be a direct minister, and today his son was sponsored by the eunuch party, in fact, he has already taken refuge in the eunuch party, which is really despicable and shameless, and many officials are preparing to write a book to impeach him!" Dad, you've won! ”

Zhong Qinyong's eyes were proud, and he said coldly: "Keep an eye on me, if Zhou Qingli doesn't know what to do, I have the means to deal with him!" ”

Zhong Fenteng immediately continued: "Dad, then deal with him, put the Zhou family to death, and see if they dare to offend our Zhong family!"

Zhong Qinyong waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's going to be selected soon, I can't make too many extraneous branches, and when I take office in engineering, I have a way to clean up Zhou Qingli!" ”

Zhong Fenteng gritted his teeth hatefully, and said, "Okay, then I'll endure it for a few days, and then see how Zhou Zhengyun's dog beast dies!" ”

……

In the evening, Zhou Qingli, who was full of alcohol, returned to the house, and before she could sit down, Zhou Fang hurriedly ran over and said, "Dad, you have heard, the second brother was recommended by Zhou Tianguan as a winner!" ”

Zhou Qingli took a sip of strong tea, felt a little more comfortable, looked at the anxious eldest son, and said lightly: "I went to the ministry to ask, but there is no name of Zhengyun." ”

Zhou Fang opened his mouth to say, but suddenly came to his senses and said, "Dad, you mean...... This is a rumor deliberately released by someone to slander my father. ”

Zhou Qingli said 'um' and said, "You're not stupid." Don't be so impatient, think more, and call Zhengyun. ”

Zhou Fang's heart fell to the ground, and he answered the call and went to find Zhou Zheng.

After a while, Zhou Fang called out Zhou Zheng, the brothers walked side by side, Zhou Fang said: "Dad just drank wine, you can talk later, I found a famous doctor from outside Beijing, and I will enter Beijing in a few days, and let him give you a good look at it when the time comes." ”

Zhou Zheng responded casually, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Fang seriously.

Zhou Fang was stunned by him and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhou Zheng thought about it seriously and said, "I remember that you are a Jinshi, right?" ”

Zhou Fang was overjoyed and said, "Do you remember?" ”

Liu Liuzhe, who was behind them, hurriedly answered, "The eldest young master, the second young master has already remembered some things, and his condition may have improved." ”

Zhou Fang looked at Zhou Zheng and said excitedly: "That's really good, Dad must be very happy to know." ”

Zhou Zheng didn't bother to pay attention to their mess, and asked, "What is missing?" ”

Zhou Fangdao: "In recent years, the court has not been peaceful, and my father was afraid that I would be implicated, so he didn't let me go out, and I am currently an assistant teacher in Guozijian." ”

Guozijian?

Zhou Zheng nodded, it was also a place full of oil and water. Those who do not have the qualifications for the imperial examination or fail to pass the examination often spend money to buy the Guozijian in order to enter the official position and seek a half-official position.

Zhou Fang saw that Zhou Zheng seemed to be just asking casually, so he told Zhou Zheng about the outside matter.

Zhou Zheng said 'oh', and suddenly said: "The methods of the Zhong family, no wonder ......"

Now that everything makes sense, how could Zhou Yingqiu, a high-ranking celestial official, notice a little person like them.

Zhou Fang looked at this crazy second brother with an inexplicable expression. I don't know why, this crazy second brother always gives him a strange feeling, as if he has no emotions, and he is surprisingly bland about everything, as if, transcendent and extraordinary?

The two brothers came to the inner hall as they spoke, Zhou Qingli's pale face was wine red, and when she saw Zhou Zheng coming, she said, "Do you know the matter?" ”

Zhou Zheng reacted calmly and said, "Well, I know." ”

Zhou Qingli looked at him and said, "What do you think?" ”

Zhou Zheng thought for a moment and said, "How did you deal with it?" ”

Zhou Qingli said, "I've been to the Ministry of Officials, and the list of vacancies will come out tomorrow, and the rumors are self-defeating." ”

Zhou Zheng said 'oh' and said, "It's a good way." ”

Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng, and also had the feeling that Zhou Fang just now, this crazy second son, not only forgot everyone and everything, but also seemed to have some problems with his emotions, and he was stunned.

Zhou Qingli was silent for a while, and then said, "Do you have anything to say?" ”

Zhou Zheng thought about it for a while, and said seriously, "Otherwise, resign." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Zhou Fang and Liu Liuzhen on the side were all stunned and looked surprised.

Zhou Qingli was also stunned, and said: "Why do you want to resign, my father will soon be able to take up the engineering department." ”

Zhou Zheng had already thought of the wording and said: "This position can't do anything, not only will it offend Qingliu but also the eunuch party, it is very dangerous, and the gentleman will not stand under the wall." ”

Zhou Qingli took the teacup casually and said undeniably: "You don't have to worry about these things, go back and rest well, read a book, and your illness will be fine." ”

Zhou Zheng looked at Zhou Qingli's expression, knowing that he would not resign easily, and sighed in his heart, he couldn't tell Daddy Zhou, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was about to hang up, and Chongzhen would liquidate the eunuchs as soon as he came to power.

Zhou Zheng is now a 'madman', no one believes him if he talks too much, after thinking about it seriously, Zhou Zheng said, "How much silver is there at home, I want to use it." ”

Zhou Qingli picked up the teacup and said casually, "How much do you want?" ”

"Ten thousand taels." Zhou Zhengdao.

burst

Zhou Qingli squirted out a mouthful of tea, and looked at Zhou Zheng in disbelief.

Zhou Fang and Liu Liuzhen were also speechless in shock. Their Zhou family is a noble family, with the imperial court and ancestral property, but it is barely maintained, and it is difficult to scrape together a thousand taels, 10,000 taels, it is simply unimaginable!

Zhou Qingli has always been rigid and rarely gaffes, wiped the tea on her body, and looked at Zhou Zhengdao: "What do you want so much silver for?" ”

Zhou Zheng also thought about it, and said in a generous tone: "I want to establish a academy, the academy does not teach, collects books from all over the world, and the door is open, allowing the people of the world to watch and spread the teachings of the saints!" ”

Zhou Qingli's brows jumped when he heard this, if it was a normal Zhou Zheng, he would have scolded him a long time ago, but this is crazy.

He had a headache, waved his hand, and said, "You are still young now, and you will do it when you get married and start a business in the future, go ahead." ”

Zhou Zheng saw that the Zhou family had nothing to look at, and there was no silver, so he calmly said 'um' and turned to leave.

Liu Liuzhen hurriedly followed, this second young master's behavior was becoming more and more strange, and he actually opened his mouth for 10,000 taels.

Zhou Fang's reaction was a little slower, and just as he was about to turn around, he saw Fu Bo coming in in a hurry, came to Zhou Qingli's side with a solemn face, and leaned closer and whispered: "Master, there is news from the ministry, saying that Zhong Qinyong has been decided." ”

Zhou Qingli looked slightly shocked and said, "Is it true?" ”

Fu Bo said solemnly: "Eight or nine is not far from ten." ”
