In fact, if you want to name Wei Xizhuang as a crime, Wei Xizhuang can do it himself, nothing more than to be realistic.

But one day, Wei Xizhuang was charged with various crimes, and he was completely separated from Wei Zhongxian and the eunuchs.

At the same time, everyone in the eunuch party is in danger and is trying their best to save themselves, and the dark tide is surging inside and outside the government and the opposition.

Zhou Zheng watched coldly and continued to do his thing.

Weekly Diary.

In the courtyard, there are four or five young people, who are sorting and carefully selecting the books in the courtyard.

Zhou Zheng was also in the meantime, in addition to the subset of scriptures and history, there was also the order of strokes, constantly organized, and placed neatly.

One of the young people is the one who Zhou Zheng bought the mandarin duck picture, named Kou Huaiyi, he did it very hard and seriously.

Several other people are also down-and-out talents, even if they have fame, they can't be ranked as officials, and they are helpless in the capital, Zhou Zheng is willing to give them decent jobs and not bad commissions, which is really happy.

There are nearly 10,000 books piled up here, and the workload is not small, and a group of people don't know how long they have been busy before they can relax and sit down to eat.

Kou Huaiyi already knew some things about Zhou Zheng, although he was only eighteen years old, two years younger than Zhou Zheng, he was admitted to Xiucai a year earlier than Zhou Zheng.

Knowing that Zhou Zheng was already supervising the imperial history, he went to the court three times, and he was even an envoy to Jianyu, which made him envious.

At the dinner table, Kou Huaiyi looked at Zhou Zheng and asked, "Zhou Yushi, I heard that Fang Tianguan is going to be a minister, is this true?" ”

Zhou Zheng held the bowl in his hand, hummed casually, and said, "It shouldn't be fake." ”

Fang Zhuangli has just been transferred to the Ministry of Officials, and he resigned, although it is in line with the current replacement speed of the six officials, but at this time, it is still particularly eye-catching.

Kou Huaiyi sighed, looking somewhat disappointed.

When Zhou Yingqiu served as the secretary of the ministry, it was called a dim, not to mention cultivating a private person, if he wanted to be a candidate for an official position, he had to have enough money to open the door, no, he had to wait for a lifetime!

Kou Huaiyi should be able to wait for a half-official position, but he has been disappointed. I thought that Fang Zhuangli's situation would change, but he was still disappointed.

At this time, Liu Liuzhen came back from outside, wiped the sweat on his head, and said, "Second young master, it's done." Cabinets, chairs, bookcases, etc., all handed over to the family, and they said that within two months, they must be done for the second young master. ”

Jiujiang Pavilion is renovated in about a month, and then cleaned up, and can be used in almost two months.

Zhou Zheng smiled and beckoned, "Okay, sit down and eat." ”

Liu Liuzhen sighed, sat down in the place left for him next to Zhou Zheng, picked up the bowl and gobbled it up.

Zhou Zheng looked at the books in the courtyard, thought for a while, and said, "In addition to these, get some flowers and plants to decorate." Plaques, door couplets, etc., I'll find someone else to do it. ”

Liu Liuzhe uh-huh, these are all small things.

Liu Liuzhen was taken aback for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said, "By the way, Second Young Master, I heard a message outside." ”

Zhou Zheng held the bowl in his hand and said, "What news?" ”

"Lord Wang is going back to Beijing." Liu Liuzhen said.

Zhou Zheng returned to the bowl with vegetables, looked at him with some puzzlement, and said, "Which Lord Wang?" ”

"Your Excellency the King." Liu Liuzhen said. Liu Liuzhen followed Zhou Zheng to visit Wang Zhichen, and also followed Zhou Zheng to see off Wang Zhichen, thinking that Zhou Zheng should care about this news.

Zhou Zheng listened to Liu Liuzhe's words, and said a little unresponsively, "Is the news accurate?" ”

Liu Liuzhen said: "It should be accurate, it was said by an official." ”

Zhou Zheng looked at Liu Liuzhen and blinked, feeling puzzled.

Wang Zhichen has only resigned for a few days, why did he come back? What is the purpose of coming back?

Now the situation is unpredictable, many forces are running through it, and Wang Zhichen is coming back at this time, it is too dangerous!

Zhou Zheng thought about it, but still stood up and said, "You guys eat, I'll go out." ”

Liu Liuzhen hurriedly put down the bowl and said, "Second Young Master, do you want me to go with you?" ”

Zhou Zheng waved his hand and said, "You can eat." ”

Zhou Zheng came out of the weekly diary and went straight to Tian Zhenshu.

He is the chief official of Jiangxi Province, so he should know something.

In a teahouse on Chang'an Street, Zhou Zheng and Tian Zhenshu sat opposite each other.

Tian Zhenshu's big eyes were a little tired, he listened to Zhou Zheng's question, and said, "Well, Wang Zhichen is back, not back to Beijing, it's Ji Liao, the capital governor." ”

The so-called 'superintendent' is the meaning of commanding the army, which is far better than the so-called governor and strategy, because the superintendent is often more than one place, and the superintendent Jiliao is the army that commands Jizhou and the two towns of Liaodong.

The two towns now have no strategy, and the governor and the supervisor are basically the top military and political powers of the two towns!

The power is quite amazing, not before!

Zhou Zheng looked at Tian Zhenshu, not knowing what expression to have on his face.

He originally thought that the superintendent of Liaodong would be Wang Zaijin speculated by Yuan Chonghuan, but he never imagined that it would be the king's minister!

However, Wang Zhichen was once a Liaodong governor, which was equivalent to Yuan Chonghuan's governor of Liaodong, plus he was the secretary of the military department and the superintendent of Ji Liao, whether it was qualifications or ability, it was extremely suitable.

It's just that he's not a eunuch!

If it is inferred according to common sense, this position will definitely be a person of the eunuch party. Jiliao is no danger now, the commander of Jiliao is an important town, he has no money and food in his hands, he is in a high position, and he is very close to the Beijing Division, so there is no reason for the eunuchs to let go of others!

It seems that the apocalypse is really preparing for the future. Zhou Zheng muttered to himself.

The release of Jiliao Erzhen to Wang Zhichen, who is not a eunuch, shows that Tianqi is very worried about the successor, not only trying to find a way to balance the eunuch party in Beijing, but also trying to give checks and balances outside.

Tian Zhenshu looked at Zhou Zheng's somewhat changed expression, and said: "Now the situation is in a mess, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has been rumored recently, I heard that Lord Er Cao wrote a letter to denounce the party dispute, and some people launched a fierce attack on Er Cao, and we are also forced to stand in line." ”

Li Guopu and others were the first to shoot at the eunuchs, and there is the support of the apocalypse behind this, but is Er Cao also there?

Ercao, that is, the left and right imperial history of the Imperial Palace, Cao Sicheng, Cao Yubian.

Zhou Zheng knew that there was someone behind Tian Zhenshu, so he pondered for a moment and said: "Although the court situation is chaotic now, it is not difficult to guess the root cause, and you should also be able to see that Li Guopu and others are afraid that they will quickly take the position." ”

Tian Zhenshu Tongling's eyes widened and said, "Do you think they can stand?" ”

Since the eunuch party gained power, I don't know how many people have been impeached and attacked one after another, and the eunuch party has not shown no signs of falling, but it has still become a behemoth and is unshakable.

Li Guopu and others, can they fight against the eunuchs? If they are defeated, the Donglin Party will have too many bloody lessons from the past!

"It should work." Zhou Zheng quietly tapped lightly. Tian Zhenshu is a good official and is one of Zhou Zheng's few friends.

Tian Zhenshu looked at Zhou Zheng, her eyes flickered, and she said thoughtfully: "I remember, a while ago, you and Ling Zun were called into the palace by the emperor, it seems that you should know something." ”

There is really no shortage of smart people in the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Zheng just clicked a simple sentence, and Tian Zhenshu speculated here.

Tian Zhenshu also seemed to guess that Zhou Zheng was not good at talking, so he said, "Okay, I know." You have been careful lately, the more chaotic the situation is, the more the ghosts will jump out. ”

Zhou Zhengdao: "Well, you should also be cautious, the situation may change greatly soon." ”

Tian Zhenshu and the others had a hunch and nodded silently. Instead of relaxing, his expression became more and more worried.

The situation in the Ming Dynasty has not stopped since Jiajing, and it has become more terrible in recent years.

Zhou Zheng returned to Zhou Ji and shook his head secretly as he continued to clean up the books.

The trend of the court situation is becoming more and more unpredictable, who would have thought that Wang Zhichen would kill a horse gun and supervise Ji Liao?

I'm afraid that the eunuchs are now uneasy and can't live in fear.

Another day later, there was heavy news in the imperial court again.

The Sixth Branch wrote to Yang Weiheng in the matter, saying that the corruption of the North and South Suppression Divisions was serious and that they killed wantonly, which frightened the courtiers and panicked the people, and asked for a dismissal to reassure the hearts of the subjects of the world.

The North and South Zhenfu Division are the two prisons under the jurisdiction of Jinyiwei, how did they come to be, what they have done over the years, everyone knows very well, Yang Weiheng's 'removal' of the book has surprised many people.

The biggest weapon in Wei Zhongxian's hand is Jinyiwei, in the past few years, most of the Donglin Party members he hated have died here!

The glossy and dignified want to abolish the North and South Zhenfu Division, which is tantamount to cutting off Wei Zhongxian's arm!

Everyone stared at the script, staring at the reaction of the apocalypse.

If the apocalypse allows, then Wei Zhongxian will really lose power, and he is not far from death!

However, in the evening, news came out of the palace that the music had been left by the apocalypse.

This made the Forbidden City breathe a sigh of relief, even if the Apocalypse wanted to make a move against Wei Zhongxian, it couldn't be so sudden, the eunuch party was too strong, and it took enough time to prepare!

Zhou Zheng and Zhou Qingli were sitting in the pavilion of Zhou's mansion, and Zhou's father was playing chess for Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Qingli naturally heard the disturbances outside, looked at the chessboard, shook his head, and said, "They are too anxious." ”

Zhou Zheng knew what Father Zhou meant, and said, "I'm afraid it's just a temptation." ”

In Zhou Zheng's mind, Yang Weiheng's letter to abolish the North and South Zhenfu Divisions was probably a kind of temptation of those people to the Apocalypse and Wei Zhongxian.

Zhou Qingli put down a son and said, "It's still too urgent." ”

Zhou Zheng followed the fall, this time with a hum.

Whether it was a temptation or some other purpose, Li Guopu and the others were too anxious, Wei Zhongxian still controlled the court, if it weren't for the attitude of the apocalypse, Li Guopu and the others would have become corpses in the edict prison.

Such persecution of Wei Zhongxian again and again is likely to make the eunuchs angry and retaliate, and the consequences are definitely not something that Li Guopu and others can bear.

Zhou Qingli lowered her hands a few times, looked up at Zhou Zheng, and said lightly: "A few adults have returned to Beijing." ”

Zhou Zheng was stunned, looked up at Zhou Qingli, and immediately understood that it should be Zhou Qingli's bosses in the Ministry of Officials, who used to be backers.

But immediately, Zhou Zheng frowned and asked tentatively, "Dad also plans to make a comeback at this time?" ”

Zhou Qingli's face hesitated, and said, "Several adults have written to me, and some positions have been arranged. ”

Zhou Zheng's expression did not move, and he sighed in his heart.

If you want to say that the most sensitive person is undoubtedly the person in the officialdom. It's only been a few days, inside and outside the capital, up and down the government and the opposition, I don't know how many people can't bear it and are ready to return to the capital.

"Daddy, wait." Zhou Zheng looked at Zhou Qingli and said with a calm expression.

The current change is just the beginning, and there are more things to happen in the future, and if you get involved at this time, you will definitely be involuntarily, and it is too dangerous.

Zhou Qingli knew that Tianqi was seriously ill, and she was worried in her heart, and she always wanted to do something, listening to Zhou Zheng's words, she sighed in her heart and was silent.

Zhou Zheng saw that Zhou Qingli did not insist, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, many people will die in the court!

Zhou Zheng finished playing chess with Father Zhou, and was just about to go back to his room, when Liu Liuzhen sneaked over and whispered in his ear: "Second Young Master, Li Shi is out of the palace, he is waiting for you in the teahouse, saying that he has something urgent to see you." ”

Zhou Zheng's expression changed slightly, he thought about it in his heart, and said, "Let's go!" ”

Li Shi is an internal supervisor, and when he leaves the palace at this time, he wants to see Zhou Zheng, and most of them have very important things!
