Chapter 269: The Beginning of the Zhou Family's Prosperity
Huang Li could see Zhu Youzhen's angry expression, and there was no expression on his thin face.
In his opinion, the emperor still has to rely on courtiers, and a sixteen-year-old emperor, is it possible to govern this huge country by himself?
He is an old minister of the four dynasties who came from the dispute over the country, why is he afraid that the emperor will be angry?
Wanli is confronted in front of him, what is the little emperor in front of him?
Zhu Youzhen naturally couldn't guess what he was thinking from Huang Liji's face, but he had already decided in his heart that Huang Liji was a eunuch, and he did this, but it was still the reason for the party!
Hateful! Damn it!
Zhu Youzhen was angry in his heart, but he couldn't do it, suppressed his anger, tightened his face, and said, "What did Cao Yubian say?" β
Huang Liji said: "This is the result of Lord Cao and Lao Chen's joint counsel. β
Zhu Youzhen's face turned pale, forcibly pressed it, and said, "I know." β
Huang Liji raised his hand and said, "The old minister retired." β
Zhu Youzhen saw him leave, his eyes were full of undisguised killing intent.
As soon as he left, Zhu Youzhen violently pushed down the notebook on the table and said angrily: "Eunuch!" Eunuchs! Eunuchs are damned! β
Wang Chengen, Li Zhong and others outside the door were terrified when they heard this, and they all bowed their heads and said nothing.
After Wei Zhongxian's death, the emperor became more and more angry, and he no longer had the gentle gentleness he used to be.
I don't know how long it took, Zhu You came out and said expressionlessly: "Passing the decree, Zhou Qingli was transferred to the right deputy capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, responsible for investigating Wei Zhongxian's case, and no one else is allowed to interfere." β
Li Zhong looked slightly startled, and hurriedly bowed his head and said nothing.
Wang Chengen looked as usual, bowed and said, "Yes." β
After Zhu Youzhen finished saying this, he turned around and went back.
Li Zhong lowered his head, but his heart was not calm.
He is not calm because of Zhou Qingli's promotion, but the emperor's sentence 'others must not interfere', which means that Shoufu, Cao Yubian and others cannot interfere either, this is the emperor's expression of distrust of Shoufu, the imperial history of the left capital Cao Yubian!
It's a very scary sign!
Zhou Qingli's promotion is a matter of course and an inevitable thing in the eyes of many people.
He is the person of the new emperor in the hidden mansion, who will be promoted if he is not promoted?
It's just that he was suddenly promoted to the right deputy imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he was also in charge of the 'Wei Zhongxian case', which shocked countless people.
The reason why the new emperor ordered him to be arrested and returned to Beijing was because he was raising outlaws on the road and plotting against him, and the others were not stated.
Wei Zhongxian committed suicide in fear of crime and made things bigger, even so, 'Wei Zhongxian's case' still has no definite word, and there is no suffix such as 'rebellion', so it is not a reverse case.
But just because it is not a 'reverse case', there is a lot of room for maneuver.
I don't know how many people are panicking, for fear that this case will expand and affect them.
For a while, the front of the Zhou Mansion was once again full of traffic, and the flow of people was like weaving.
The people who came this time were almost all over the government and the opposition, regardless of whether they were from the New Party, the Eunuch Party, or the dormant Donglin, and the purpose of coming was different, some were to get rid of their crimes, some were to tie their minds, some were to meddle in the case, and some even wanted to dominate the case!
No matter why, Zhou Qingli suddenly became the focus of the government and the opposition, and countless eyes stared at him.
Late at night, the three fathers and sons of the Zhou family sat in the gazebo, drinking tea and talking about the government and the opposition.
Zhou Fang looked at Father Zhou and said, "Dad, what are you going to do?" β
Zhou Fang was very worried, Wei Zhongxian's power was already very large, and now everyone in the eunuch party was in danger, if Father Zhou was not good, he would fall into the hands of others and be attacked by a group.
Zhou Qingli looked as usual and said, "What do you say?" β
Zhou Fang was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "I thought that the Wei family would be arrested first, and the Hakka family would be interrogated in detail, and the confession should be obtained, and then I would go to ask the emperor." β
This is the safest way, not to rush too much, to make the eunuchs afraid and make a move on Zhou Qingli, but also to give an explanation to the new emperor.
Zhou Qingli turned to Zhou Zheng and said, "What do you think?" β
Zhou Zheng didn't expect Zhu Youzhen to come to such a hand, groaned, and said: "What the eldest brother said is right, but it's not enough, Dad has to prepare more for the emperor before he will be satisfied." β
"More?" Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng nodded and said: "The new emperor has completely disliked the eunuch party, at this time, whoever says a good word to the eunuch party, or even delays and blames this case, will be hated by the new emperor, at this time, the position must be clear!" β
Zhou Qingli was silent for a while, and said, "What do you mean by saying more?" β
There are no outsiders here, Zhou Zheng said directly: "Point out the relationship network of the eunuch party to the emperor, don't write a notebook, it is in front of the emperor, not only those who are dancing, but also a deeper relationship network, such as internal supervisors, such as those honorable ministers, such as important ministers in the government and the opposition...... It's going to be more than what I've written, and it's going to be more......"
Zhou Qingli listened, thought for a while, and suddenly looked up at Zhou Zheng and said, "Are you prepared?" β
Zhou Zheng was stunned, he didn't expect Daddy Zhou to react so quickly.
Coughing, Zhou Zhengdao: "I did some research before. β
Zhou Qingli looked at him deeply and said, "Give me a copy, I'll memorize it, and I'll go to see the emperor tomorrow." β
"Okay." Zhou Zheng didn't say anything, and instructed: "Dad, you must grasp the proportion, what you should say, what you shouldn't say, how to say it, you must be cautious about it......"
"You still need your godfather to do this." Zhou Fang listened to Zhou Zheng's chatter and rolled his eyes.
Zhou Qingli ignored it and looked at Zhou Zhengdao: "Do you think the emperor wants to uproot the eunuchs?" β
The eunuch party is intertwined, all over the whole Ming Dynasty, the emperor really wants to completely eradicate the eunuch party, then the entire Ming Dynasty will tremble, and the impact is immeasurable.
Zhou Zheng thought for a while and said, "It's not that the emperor wants to do it, but the courtiers, Donglin's revenge." β
For the disposition of the eunuch party, one is Zhu Youzhen's anger, and the other is the Donglin Party's after-autumn accounting, as soon as Wei Zhongxian falls, Qingliu is bound to fight back with all his might, and under the turbulent situation, Zhu Youzhen can't stop it even if he wants to, not to mention that he doesn't want to stop it at all.
Zhou Qingli seemed to have a dispute over the country's capital in front of him, and he seemed to see the former Zhongzheng Ying Dynasty of the Donglin Party, his brows were deeply furrowed, and there was a touch of melancholy on his face.
If the situation in the DPRK has always been like this, the party is constantly fighting, fighting back and forth, where did the Ming Dynasty come from?
Early the next morning, Zhou Qingli first went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to report on her work, and then went to the Qianqing Palace to thank her.
Zhu Youzhen first encouraged him with a smile on his face, and then asked him what he thought of the 'Wei Zhongxian case'.
Zhou Qingli first talked about some of Wei Zhongxian's crimes, and then began to talk about 'forming a party'.
Without waiting for Zhou Qingli to say much, Zhu Youzhen's face changed suddenly, and he said, "Wait, there are so many people in the eunuch party?" β
Zhou Qingli was interrupted from her words, and paused for a while before saying, "If you investigate carefully, I'm afraid it's more." β
Zhu Youzhen knew what some people in the eunuch party were, and after listening to Zhou Qingli's words, he turned to Cao Huachun who was not far away, and said, "You say." β
Li Zhong was ineffective, and the matter of the commander of Dongchang was still handed over to Cao Huachun.
Cao Huachun is an old man in the palace, took a step forward, and said: "Back to Long Live Lord, the people who died in the edict prison are above the third grade, from the third year of the Apocalypse to the present, at least more than 100, nine out of ten injustices, Tian Ergeng as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the first crime." Zhou Yingqiu served as the secretary of the ministry for three years, and the protΓ©gΓ© did not know how many, and the slave and maid knew that it was limited, and he and Wei Liangqing, the Duke of Suning, were 'friends of the hooves'. Cui Chengxiu forced Gu Bingqian, Wei Guanghui and other first assistants to resign one after another, which shows that their power ......"
