Chapter 596: Fire Place
Qian Qianyi sensed that things were not simple, and stopped talking.
He was thinking about how this matter would turn around and end. Zhou Zheng's side obviously sensed the emperor's 'malice', and Xu Wenjue controlled the inner court, if one day the emperor ordered Zhou Zheng to enter the palace, and then imprisoned or killed, it would be easy!
How will Zhou Zheng respond?
Then Liu Liuzhen blocked the Qianqing Palace with the brocade guard, the emperor just didn't let people go, would he really break in?
A trace of cold sweat appeared on Qian Qianyi's head, this is simply a dead end!
Zhu Cihong didn't have any intention of retreating, seeing that Qian Qianyi didn't speak, he looked at Xu Wenjue and said, "Wei Guogong, you go to Qianqingmen, and those who dare to trespass will be killed on the spot!" ”
Xu Wenjue raised his hand and said, "The minister obeys the order!" ”
Xu Wenjue's expression was cold, and he strode away. He has no scruples, with the emperor as his backer, then Zhou Zhengyun still dares to rebel?
Qian Qianyi's head is lowered, this matter is not good, it may be turned upside down!
Xu Wenjue quickly led people to the Qianqing Gate, arranged them, and waited for them.
Xu Wenjue and Liu Liuzhen confronted each other across the Qianqing Gate, looking like a guard who was about to come and the wind was full of buildings.
Liu Liuzhen tilted his face back, his eyes were indifferent.
He didn't speak, holding the knife in his right hand, staring at Xu Wenjue quietly.
Xu Wenjue was arrogant, his face was full of provocation, and he almost said, "You are here."
Liu Liuzhi ignored him, and just took more than 100 captains in brocade clothes to block the Qianqing Gate.
The two sides are facing each other, and Zhou Yanru is already in the West Corridor at this time.
He looked at Zhou Zheng and said bitterly: "No matter what the emperor wants to do, it is the emperor, he is still young, it is not difficult to do anything to you, you should be patient or patient......"
Zhou Zheng turned a deaf ear to Zhou Yanru's words.
He was still muttering in his heart, who was giving Zhu Cihong advice, unscrupulously pointing the finger at him, he was really not afraid of him doing anything out of the ordinary?
Meng Hezhou came in from outside and whispered in Zhou Zheng's ear: "My lord, there are more rumors outside, saying that you bully the young master, hold authority, and have no king and no father......"
Meng Hezhou's words are naturally filtered, and those who are even more ugly dare not say it.
Zhou Zheng looked immobile and said, "Did you find out something?" ”
Meng Hezhou glanced at Zhou Yanru and said, "The source is a little scattered, and it's also very strange, it seems to have come from a rebel." ”
"Rebel?"
Zhou Zheng couldn't help whispering, the scope of the rebels was wide, there were too many resentments against him, those who surrendered to Li Zicheng, and those who carried out the assassination in Jinluan Palace, there was no one who did not resent him.
Zhou Yanru also heard it, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about these rumors, just deal with them afterwards." You remove the Jinyi Guard now, and I'll take care of the rest. ”
Zhou Zheng still turned a deaf ear and said, "What is Your Majesty's attitude?" ”
Meng Hezhou said: "I refused to hand over people, and let Xu Wenjue block the Qianqing Gate." ”
Zhang Heyi came in from outside, hurriedly handed over a notebook, and said, "My lord, look." ”
Zhou Zheng took it with some curiosity and opened it to see that this was a transcript of the head of the household, which was actually for Zhou Zheng to speak, asking Zhou Zheng to 'recount the merits of the past years' and seal the 'Ding King'.
Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, is this afraid that he will not die? Since the Ming Dynasty has been from Zhu Di, there has been no king with a different surname!
Zhang Heyi's expression was solemn, and he said: "My lord, their actions are getting more and more, this is an obvious killing, I want to deal with you quickly." ”
Zhou Yanru listened to their conversation, unceremoniously snatched the recital from Zhou Zheng's hand, looked down, and immediately wrinkled his eyebrows.
Zhou Yanru slammed the ensemble and said in a deep voice: "Can you find out who they are?" ”
Zhou Yanru is the first assistant, what he wants is one word: stability! No matter who does things or who does it, he will not easily agree!
Meng Hezhou shook his head and said, "There are too many clues and too many to distinguish for a while, but there should be instructions from the palace." ”
The corners of Zhou Yanru's face were agitated, he exhaled deeply, and stared at Zhou Zhengdao: "Don't mess around, I'll enter the palace now, and you wait for me to come back." ”
Saying that, Zhou Yanru took the recital and left in a hurry.
Zhang Heyi looked at his back, and suddenly said with some emotion: "It's hard for Yuanfu, at such an age." ”
Meng Hezhou listened to his words and couldn't help but want to laugh.
Zhang Heyi just said casually, and then said to Zhou Zheng: "My lord, this matter is gradually spreading outside, if it is not solved as soon as possible, I am afraid it will be very unfavorable to us, if the emperor really has an edict, drive the adult back to Liaodong, or even directly drink a glass of poisonous wine, it will be difficult to do." ”
Zhu Cihong is the emperor in the end, and when he really gets to that point, Zhou Zheng has not much choice.
If he really takes that last step, can those who can follow him, or the more than 100,000 troops in the northwest, still listen to him?
People in the world, will they serve Zhou Zheng? Will there be a prince of the Eighteen Roads to ask for a week?
Meng Hezhou's expression was solemn, and he looked at Zhou Zheng seriously.
Zhou Zheng picked up the teacup and said, "It's a small matter in the palace, find out for me who is behind the Pope, and find out for me." I'll only give you one day, if you can't find it, just pack your things and go to Liaodong! ”
Meng Hezhou raised his hand violently and said in a deep voice: "The lower official obeys the order!" ”
After speaking, Meng Hezhou strode away, his expression unprecedentedly serious.
Zhang Heyi waited for Meng Hezhou to leave, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, I'm afraid it's difficult to find out in such a short time, and the students are even more worried about the palace." After all, the emperor is young, and now that he is protected by Xu Wenjue, I am afraid that he will do something out of the ordinary. ”
Zhou Zheng glanced at him and said with a smile: "What can be done in the palace?" The palace gates are all sealed, and the only exit is the Qianqing Gate. Sending letters, writing edicts, the celebrant and the jade seal are in my hands, without my nod, not a single fly in the palace can fly, you are more worried. ”
Zhang Heyi was still worried, and said, "The students still go outside to stare at it." ”
Zhou Zheng laughed and continued to bury his head in revising his 'military reform' strategy.
Zhou Yanru entered the Qianqing Palace, no one knew what happened inside, but outside the palace, something happened again.
A patrol battalion of soldiers pursued four robbers who had robbed a shop in broad daylight, and ended up chasing into the courtyard of an official eunuch's house.
In this compound, there is a mess and a quiet place.
The soldiers of the patrol battalion stood aside, looking angry, aggrieved, and unwilling.
Zhou Fang took the messenger of Shuntianfu, twisted his eyebrows, and had a cold face.
In front of them, there was a corpse, as well as a disheveled, crying young woman, a ** tied up, with a gagged mouth and a constant whimpering patrol battalion soldier.
An old woman took Zhou Fang's hand, cried bitterly, and said: "Zhou Fuyin, our lord is a loyal martyr, a thief entered Beijing, and he has not surrendered after how much torture he has endured, that is the emperor, the court approves, and now, he is angry to death......
Behind the old woman, a young man roared with exhaustion: "My sister has not yet been married, and she has been defiled by this thief, Zhou Fuyin, you must give us an explanation today!" ”
