Chapter 68: The Edict
After Yao Tongshun finished speaking, Zhou Zhenggang was about to habitually 'um', Yao Tongshun hurriedly said: "There must be two supervising imperial histories present at the same time." ”
It's not surprising that Zhou Zheng understood and said, "I know." ”
Yao Tongshun stopped talking, but still withdrew.
Zhou Zheng began to deal with official documents on a daily basis, and he already had some serious things to do, but they were trivial, and there were not many serious things.
For example, the nuclear inspection of the inner library, the public security review of the five cities, some local correspondence documents, etc., just need his supervision of the imperial history seal to be stamped, and there are no other practical affairs.
Zhou Zheng sat until noon, it was time to eat, so he cleaned up and left the room.
As soon as Zhou Zheng got out of the class room, he saw a group of people surrounding Liu Benxi, talking and laughing and walking outside, passing in front of him.
Everyone else didn't seem to see him, only Liu Benxi smiled and nodded to Zhou Zheng, and his steps didn't stop.
Zhou Zheng's expression was unmoved, and he secretly sighed in his heart that the wind direction of officialdom is to change when it is said.
Hu Qingzheng paced over slowly, looked at the backs of a group of people, and snorted coldly: "A group of dogs who have stalked and patted horses!" ”
Zhou Zheng was stunned, turned his head to look at him, saw his face full of disdain and jealousy, and said, "Why didn't you follow?" ”
Hu Qingzheng still looked outside the door, and snorted: "Isn't it just to transfer to Honglu Temple?" Lao Tzu is not rare! ”
Zhou Zheng looked at him, smiled, and suddenly said, "If you stand with me, aren't you afraid of being implicated?" ”
Zhou Zheng is very clear about his current situation, in the eyes of outsiders, his case is a dead end, and the best result is to resign and go home, and his career is hopeless.
Offending Li Shi is equivalent to offending Wei Zhongxian, offending the eunuch party, the eunuch party is in full swing, controlling the situation up and down, how can there be a good result?
Hu Qingzheng glanced at Zhou Zheng and said, "What am I afraid of?" I don't want to be this broken official! ”
After speaking, Hu Qingzheng held his big belly and walked forward with two arms, his fat face still couldn't hide his dissatisfaction and jealousy.
Zhou Zheng looked at his back, couldn't help but smile, and said to himself: "Interesting." ”
Zhou Zheng then also went out of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but instead of going to eat, he went to Fusi Prison in Beizhen.
Shangguan sisters and brothers, Shangguan Qing, and Shangguan Lie were already waiting in the teahouse not far away, and as soon as Zhou Zheng arrived at the teahouse, the two sisters and brothers walked down.
Shangguan Lie is wearing a dignified appearance today, only a little shorter than Zhou Zheng, his appearance is extraordinary, and the jade tree is in the wind.
As soon as he saw Zhou Zheng, he raised his hand, and said in a serious and deep voice: "Zhou Yushi, this kindness has been recorded by Shangguan Lie, and he will definitely return it ten times in the future!" ”
What kind of mess is this, Zhou Zheng looked at Shangguan Lie, who was about the same size as Liu Liuzhen, nodded casually, and looked at Shangguan Qingdao: "I have already asked Liuzhen to contact Wei Xizhuang, can you go in, you will know later." ”
Shangguan Qing is dressed quite elegantly today, dressed as a young lady from a big family, slim and elegant, pretty and lovely.
She saluted lightly and said, "I'm tired of Gongzi Zhou." ”
Shangguan Lie heard his sister say this, and hurriedly said, "Yes, I'm tired of Zhou Gongzi." ”
Zhou Zheng hummed and turned to look at the Beizhen Fusi Prison not far away.
It's a dilapidated stone brick compound that looks ordinary, but it's not ordinary at all, and no one would find it ordinary. Since the establishment of Emperor Chengzu, I don't know how many important ministers or traitors of the Ming Dynasty have died!
In the eyes of the scholars, this is the Abi Hell, the place of the ghost shasara. Under the bright and clear, it is plain and unremarkable, revealing the cold atmosphere that no one should enter.
It didn't take long for Wei Xizhuang to come out of it, look around, walk quickly to Zhou Zheng, look at the three of them and whisper: "I have spent all the money, come with me." ”
Even Wei Xizhuang is not doing whatever he wants in Zhenfu Prison, there are too many immortals here.
Zhou Zheng glanced at the Shangguan sisters and brothers, and followed Wei Xizhuang forward.
The four of them quickly entered the Zhenfu Prison, and before they could enter the prison, they smelled a strong smell of rot, which was quite pungent.
Shangguan Lie covered his mouth and nose for the first time, and said in a muffled voice: "What kind of smell is this, how is it the same as a sewer." ”
Shangguan Qing also frowned, but there was no extra movement, just a little uncomfortable on his pretty face.
Zhou Zheng is also a person with a slight cleanliness habit, looking at the deep inside, he tried to close his nose and said, "Don't you do hygiene or something?" ”
Wei Xizhuang strode inside and said, "You guys just pretend to be happy, the smell was even bigger a few days ago." ”
Zhou Zheng and the three followed, and the people inside seemed to have not seen the three of them, and the guards who should be guarding came and went in a hurry.
Wei Xizhuang said in a low voice as he walked, "Don't look too much, don't ask too much, don't care too much, and treat everything you see as if you didn't see it." ”
Zhou Zheng didn't care, but Shangguan Lie nodded again and again, and said very seriously: "Well, don't worry, we understand, we will never spit out a word!" ”
Wei Xizhuang just routinely explained, not expecting them to say anything, this Shangguan Lie's reply made Wei Xizhuang a little uneasy, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.
Shangguan Lie raised his head and raised his chest, looked at Wei Xizhuang's gaze, looked sincere, nodded heavily, and hummed.
Zhou Zheng was also a little surprised by this Shangguan Lie, this kid was a little stunned.
"Let's go." Zhou Zheng pulled down Wei Xizhuang.
Wei Xizhuang glanced at Shangguan Lie again, walked forward, and said in a low voice: "If you have anything to say, hurry up, if someone comes back early, I may not be even." ”
Zhou Zheng hummed, followed Wei Xizhuang's twists and turns, and finally came to a corner cell.
It is a stone chamber with three walls, only the door is an iron railing.
A middle-aged man was lying on his side, head facing inward, curled up in a white graying prison uniform, his head covered in grass.
Wei Xizhuang said in a low voice, "This is it, I'll go outside and watch, if there is something calling me." ”
Before Zhou Zheng could speak, Shangguan Lie grabbed the railing and shouted inside, "Daddy, Daddy, ......"
As soon as Wei Xizhuang turned around and almost stumbled to the ground, Shangguan Qing grabbed Shangguan Lie, pulled him behind, and said coldly: "Shut up!" ”
Shangguan Lie suddenly didn't dare to speak, looking aggrieved.
This cry naturally alarmed the surrounding cells, and people came out one after another to look here.
Wei Xizhuang looked back at Zhou Zheng, and said with a not very good expression: "Look at him, otherwise don't think about staying." ”
Zhou Zheng glanced at the cells around him and said, "Well, you are waiting outside." ”
Wei Xizhuang nodded, holding the knife and striding away. I didn't know who it was in the surrounding cells, but no one shouted injustice, but they just looked at Zhou Zheng and the three of them with strange eyes.
Shangguan Xun in the cell was naturally alarmed, turned around and looked at the two children outside the cell, his expression changed greatly, he quickly got up, and said eagerly: "Why are you here?" Hurry up, hurry up, this is not where you should come, don't save me, go as far as you can! ”
Shangguan Lie was just about to speak, but was pressed back by Shangguan Qing's elbow, she looked at her father, whose face was still good and had not been punished, her pretty face relaxed slightly, and said softly: "Dad, we are here to save you, or it won't be long before you can be released from prison......"
"You can't save me, hurry up," Shangguan Xun interrupted hurriedly without waiting for Shangguan Qing to finish speaking, and suddenly noticed Zhou Zheng again, and said in a daze: "Who is this?" ”
Shangguan Qingdao: "The new Huzhou superintendent of the imperial history, Zhou Zhengyun and Zhou Gongzi." ”
Shangguan Xun listened, looked at Zhou Zheng, and then looked at Shangguan Qing, but he couldn't react for a while.
But immediately, Shangguan Xun looked at Zhou Zheng with an indifferent face, and said coldly: "You don't want to lie to my daughter!" How can you save me! ”
After he finished speaking, he turned to Shangguan Qing's sister and brother, and said bitterly: "Qing'er, my father is a rebel who has been condemned by the eunuch party, and no one can save him, don't be deceived, after you go out, cut off contact with this person, you can go as far as you can, you don't care about your father's life or death......"
