Cui Chengxiu has been an official for so many years, especially in the past three years, he has killed and offended countless people, even within the eunuch party, he has made many enemies.

The relationship with the former first assistant Gu Bingqian, the cabinet minister Feng Quan and others is extremely bad, plus the tiger on Qingliu's side, and it really took him a lot of effort to settle it.

In the front hall of Cui's house, Cui Chengxiu's thin hands were holding the teacup, looking out very comfortably.

Wei Zhongxian had clearly told him just now that he would be reinstated and enter the cabinet in three months at the latest!

Nothing reassures his heart more than this.

The reason why he wanted to resign, in addition to Zhou Zheng's persecution, was that he had a plan to resign in his heart, avoid the limelight, and see the success of the new emperor.

After settling these things, he can leave Beijing as soon as possible, get out of the chaotic place of the capital, sit in his hometown and watch the changes, and quietly wait for the opportunity.

Cui Chengli came in and immediately shouted: "Big brother, then He Qitu is too much, he has been locked up for so long, is there still you in his eyes, is this a rebellion?" ”

Cui Chengxiu watched Cui Chengli stride in, frowned suddenly, and said, "What did you do again?" ”

Cui Chengxiu knows this younger brother very well, and he looks like this whenever he has a weak heart.

Cui Chengli sat down directly beside Cui Chengxiu, and said nonchalantly: "Big brother, I am locked in the house, what can I do, by the way, I am hungry, do I have anything to eat?" ”

Cui Chengxiu glanced at him, and seemed to feel that this younger brother knew the severity and would not mess around at this time, and waved his hand at a subordinate not far away.

The man hurriedly bowed down and went down to prepare.

Cui Chengli saw that she was confused, and hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Big brother, do you really want to give the silver to Zhou Zhengyun?" 200,000 taels, he dares to blackmail you, it's just dead! ”

Cui Chengxiu's eyes suddenly filled with murderous intent, and he said lightly: "A dead man, there is no need to pay attention to so much, give him the silver, and let him keep it for us for a while." ”

Where is Cui Chengli willing to give, she disagrees in her heart, but she said on her face: "Okay, big brother, you say give it, I have already asked people to prepare." ”

Cui Chengxiu looked at Cui Chengli again and said, "You said it?" ”

Cui Chengli noticed that she was exposed, and hurriedly said, "Big brother, what you said, when did I object?" ”

Cui Chengxiu's expression changed, he knew that this younger brother was greedy for money, 200,000 taels, where could he take it out with a word.

"Say! What the hell did you do! Cui Chengxiu shouted.

Cui Chengli stiffened her neck and said, "Big brother, I'm locked up in the house, what can I do?" ”

Cui Chengxiu suddenly felt a strong uneasiness in his heart, got up violently and went out, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Qinggui, arrest all the subordinates who see the second master and beat me!" ”

Cui Chengli was startled, knowing that she couldn't dodge, so she hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't fight, I'll tell you." ”

Cui Chengxiu turned around with a stern face.

Cui Chengli looked frightened, shrank her head, and said, "I, I, I let people kill that Zhou Zheng." ”

Cui Chengxiu's expression changed greatly, walked quickly in front of him, and said in a low voice: "What about the people, have you gone?" Give me a chase back immediately! ”

What about killing Zhou Zheng? Instead, it will bring them a catastrophe of killing!

Cui Chengli became more and more frightened, and said in a low voice: "It's been more than half an hour, and I haven't come back yet." ”

Half an hour?

Cui Chengxiu's eyes were frightened, he stumbled, and almost fell to the ground.

Cui Chengli hurriedly helped him and said urgently: "Big brother, are you okay?" ”

Cui Chengxiu's eyes were hideous, gritting his teeth with hatred, he pushed him away and sat down on the stool on the left, his expression changed, and his eyes flashed rapidly.

Cui Chengli succeeded, then he Cui Chengxiu is the first real murderer who killed Zhou Zheng, whether there is evidence or not, he will be the first to be unlucky!

If Cui Chengli fails, it will be even more troublesome, the killer will fall into the hands of Zhou Zheng, and the life and death of the Cui family will be completely manipulated by Zhou Zheng!

What a stupid move!

Cui Chengli knew that he was in trouble, and hurriedly said as if making amends: "Big brother, don't worry, I pretended to be the hands of those salt merchants, and no one will suspect us." ”

Cui Chengxiu subconsciously picked up the mallet, but found that it was not in the house, and his dry fingers pointed at Cui Chengli tremblingly, and said angrily: "How can I have such a bastard brother as you!" ”

Cui Chengli is really stupid, no matter who wins, the basin is on their heads!

He tried his best to put away the beginning and end and leave Beijing as soon as possible, but now, is he still able to go?

Cui Chengli didn't understand at all, how majestic his brother was before, who dared to be disrespectful to him, why is he timid and timid like a mouse now?

Looking at Cui Chengli's expression, Cui Chengxiu couldn't wait to kill him!

This idiot!

Cui Chengxiu's heart changed in a hurry, and he only prayed that Cui Chengli's people did not succeed, as long as Zhou Zheng did not die, there would still be room for maneuver, if Zhou Zheng died, there would be an uproar in the government and the opposition, and he would not be able to escape if he went to prison to ask for the crime!

Once you are imprisoned, let alone recover, it is great luck not to die!

Cui Chengxiu sat on the stool, his expression changed, constantly thinking about various possibilities, and at the same time waiting for the news of those killers.

Cui Chengli looked at Cui Chengxiu's expression, didn't dare to speak anymore, hid at the door, and seemed to turn around and run away when something was wrong.

Cui Chengxiu was too lazy to be angry with him, he seemed to hear the hourglass, ticking the torment.

I don't know how long it took, Cui Chengxiu looked at the sky outside with a glimmer of light, and said softly: "I missed." ”

His expression was calm, and he seemed to be relieved.

Cui Chengli naturally guessed it, where did he think that Cao Zhihuang actually missed a little Zhou Zheng!

He was scared in his heart, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice, "Brother, what now?" ”

Cui Chengxiu glanced at him and said, "You know you're scared?" ”

Cui Chengli's expression was stiff, and she nodded a little stunned, and said, "Hmm." ”

Cui Chengxiu's eyes were calm and terrifying, he sighed heavily, got up a little tiredly, and said, "Go and send a message to Zhou Zhengyun, I want to see him." ”

Cui Chengli was now very cautious, cautious, and said, "It's brother." ”

Cui Chengxiu waved his hand, walked out of the living room, and walked towards his bedroom.

Cui Chengli looked at Cui Chengxiu's tired back, her heart was terrified, and her expression was full of fear.

He had never seen Cui Chengxiu's expression, even if the Donglin Party was blazing back then and wanted to impeach Cui Chengxiu, Cui Chengxiu never had such a look.

Zhou family.

Zhou Zheng was sitting in the study, and he had already received a confession from Meng Hezhou about Cao Zhihuang and others.

He looked at the contents of the confession, his expression was a little inexplicable, and he wanted to laugh but couldn't.

With a younger brother like Cui Chengli, it is difficult for Cui Chengxiu not to die.

Zhou Zheng looked at this confession and wondered, how should such a big handle be used?
