Wei Xizhuang saw that Zhou Zheng's heart to go to Jianyu had been decided, and he stopped talking, and said for a while: "There are a few, I hid the harvest from Tian'er, there are many means, and I am also smart, the key is to put the handle in my hands, dare not be disobedient, let alone betray me, when the time comes, I will let them follow you." ”

Zhou Zheng hummed, still thinking in his heart.

Jianyu's trip was definitely not easy, and he was already thinking about how to arrange it in case of accidents.

In fact, in addition to wanting to see the specific situation of Jianyu, he also wanted to take a look in Liaodong, Liaodong, Dongjiang Town, North Korea, and even Chahar, Zhou Zheng lacked real understanding.

Jianyu is the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty, and Zhou Zheng needs to go deeper and carefully to explore the real situation.

Wei Xizhuang didn't know Zhou Zheng's thoughts, he was also panicked now, and it was difficult to calm down in his heart, so he talked for a while, and then left in a hurry.

Zhou Zheng looked at his back, thinking about Donglin, the two great friends of the eunuch party, and shook his head secretly.

The party fights for the country, as long as the friends are extremely strange together, the impossible can happen normally, whether it is inside or the opponent, it is difficult to oppose it with confidence, because each other is half a pound and eight taels, almost!

In such a situation, what Zhou Zheng wants to change is not a matter of difficulty, it is simply impossible!

Zhou Zheng is becoming more and more disappointed with the current situation, and more and more concludes that it is impossible to reform from within.

After sitting in the pavilion for a while, Zhou Zheng restrained his emotions and returned to the study, reading books, and practicing calligraphy.

Reading books and practicing calligraphy were his main things during this time, and he also made a lot of progress under concentration.

……

The next day, Zhou Zheng wore regular clothes and brought gifts to Huang Weihuai's mansion to celebrate his granddaughter's birthday.

Huang Weihuai is a member of the Ministry of Rites, his official position is not high, maybe he didn't do a big job, and there were not many guests who came to congratulate him, so Zhou Zheng came straight to the door with gifts.

"Where is your mansion?" The butler who greeted the guests was very polite and greeted him with a smile.

Zhou Zheng also smiled politely and said, "Zhejiang Dao supervises the imperial history, Zhou Zhengyun." ”

The face of the housekeeper who welcomed the guests changed instantly, from enthusiasm to coldness, glanced at Zhou Zheng, waved his hand and said, "Then go and register." ”

Not far away there was a table where two old men were registering the visitors, including the congratulatory gifts they had brought.

Zhou Zheng's expression did not move, the smile on his face was naturally gone, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

He resistantly shook his hand and walked to the receiving place.

"Zhou Zhengyun." The butler who welcomed the guests looked at the recipient and picked up the brush, and said with a faint expression.

The gift received and looked up at Zhou Zheng suddenly, the smile on his face disappeared, his face was expressionless and a little bored, picked up the pen and wrote the word 'Zhou Zheng' on the red book, and then opened Zhou Zheng's gift, and sang loudly while writing: "Zhejiang Dao Supervision Imperial History Zhou Zhengyun's congratulatory gift, a very poor quality, visual inspection of only twenty jade Ruyi two!" ”

There were not many guests around, but everyone heard what they understood clearly, and they all turned their heads to Zhou Zheng, whispering, and pointing.

Although a granddaughter's birthday gift can't be too expensive, it is too much to have twenty wen and poor quality.

Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, staring at the few people around him, and anger appeared in his heart.

This kind of blatant singing of congratulatory gifts is very rude, and it also devalues his jade ruyi as worthless.

This is clearly Huang Weihuai's dismount for him!

The person receiving the gift bowed his head and wrote, very seriously, and really wrote words such as 'poor quality' and 'worth twenty wen'. The housekeeper of the Huang Mansion beside Zhou Zheng stared at Zhou Zheng proudly and indifferently, with an expression of 'what can you do to me'.

After the person receiving the gift finished writing, he picked up Zhou Zheng's jade Ruyi without raising his head, threw it into a box on the side, and picked up a rag to cover it.

The eyes, face, and movements are like flowing water, full of disgust.

Zhou Zheng looked at it, a trace of cold color appeared on his face, and he was about to have a seizure.

At this time, a young man in his twenties strode over and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong?" ”

When the housekeeper who welcomed the guests saw it, he hurriedly said, "Young Master, this week's congratulatory gifts for Zhengyun are two jade ruyi of extremely poor quality. ”

This eldest young master is called Huang Deyun, the eldest son of Huang Weihuai, who has no fame and is temporarily working in the Ministry of Rites.

Huang Deyun frowned suddenly, turned to Zhou Zheng, glanced at it, and said dissatisfiedly: "Zhou Zhengyun, you are too much, right?" If you don't want to come, you can not come at all, and you don't have to humiliate me and my father so deliberately!? ”

Zhou Zheng's two jade ruyi were personally selected by him, and they are worth two taels, which are not valuable, but they are definitely worth it!

Zhou Zhengben also wanted to have a good chat with Huang Weihuai, as the chief and deputy envoy, he could reach a consensus on the issue of going to Jianyu and unanimously with the outside world.

But he didn't expect that Huang Weihuai had no intention of negotiating with him at all, and gave him such a dismount before they met!

Is this to establish the prestige of the master, so that Zhou Zheng is honest and obedient?

If you want to subdue him Zhou Zheng like this, this Huang Weihuai will underestimate him too much!

Many people around were looking at Zhou Zheng, whispering in a low voice. They all thought that Zhou Zheng was here to smash the field, and it was inevitable that his face would not change, and there would be a lot of dissatisfaction.

The housekeeper who welcomed the guests, the gift recipients, and some family members all looked at Zhou Zheng with sneers in their eyes.

Huang Deyun even put his hands behind his back, raised his head, lowered his eyes, and looked down at Zhou Zheng with arrogance and disdain.

He is a few years older than Zhou Zheng and a little taller. But he has no fame, Zhou Zheng is already the supervising imperial history of the seventh grade!

Zhou Zheng looked around, saw that Huang Weihuai did not come forward, sneered in his heart, and said directly to Huang Deyun: "Is the Huang family's tutor like this?" First, I am the Imperial Inspector of Zhejiang Province of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is this how you salute as a white-clothed official? Second, my father and I are colleagues, your elders, did your father teach you to call your elders by their first names?! Tell your father to come out, and I will ask him how he taught you, this son! ”

Zhou Zheng put on the posture of Shangguan and elders to teach Huang Deyun a lesson, Huang Deyun's face turned red immediately, his eyes breathed fire, and he couldn't say a word!

Zhou Zheng is indeed the supervising imperial history of the seven products of the Ming Dynasty, and Huang Deyun has not yet entered the office, but he is a white cloth. Zhou Zheng and his father Huang Weihuai are the chief and deputy envoys of the envoy Jianyu, and they are indeed colleagues!

And this matter can't be more serious, do you have to sit in front of everyone and sit on Zhou is his elder? Huang Deyun is a few years older than Zhou Zheng!

Huang Deyun's face turned red and turned blue, and he hated it in his heart, but he also knew that he was not Zhou Zheng's opponent, so he snorted coldly and shook his hand and left.

As a housekeeper, the housekeepers looked at each other, not knowing what expression was good. Apathetic, laughing, flattering, or expressionless?

This Zhou Yushi is actually so strong, he reprimanded their eldest young master as a junior!

The guests were also stunned, why did the eldest young master of the Huang family leave in disgrace?

At this time, Huang Weihuai walked out of the warehouse behind the recipient, he was dressed in regular clothes, with a strand of white hair on his temples, the corners of his face were thin, his eyes were sunken, and his eyes were blazing, giving people a very majestic, upright, and domineering feeling.

His voice was also unusually crisp, looking at Zhou Zheng across the table, and said with a deep color: "Zhou Yushi, what a big official!" ”
