Early the next morning, the back hall of Zhou's house.

Zhou Qingli sat upright, Zhou Fang and Miss Ding, now they are going to be called Zhou Ding, and the two stood respectfully in front.

"Daddy, please have tea." Zhou Ding held the teacup and carefully handed it to Zhou Qingli.

Zhou Qingli took it with a smile, took a sip, and then put down the teacup, saying words of concern and reassurance in her mouth.

After Zhou Qingli finished speaking, Zhou Ding took another teacup and said to Zhou Zheng, who was standing aside, "Second uncle, please drink tea." ”

Zhou Zheng was stunned, is this still his?

Hurriedly took it and said, "Sister-in-law Xie." ”

Zhou Ding's family has a new wife, and she is shy about marrying into the Zhou family, and she has been pursing her mouth, and her every move is very respectful and well-behaved.

After drinking the tea of the new daughter-in-law, Zhou Fang was considered to be married, and Zhou Qingli's heart disease was gone, the more smiles on his face, and he told Zhou Fang and his wife some things.

Zhou Zheng listened from the sidelines, smiling.

It is all taken for granted, for example, the Zhou family has no hostess, the Zhou Ding family is about to take charge of the Zhou family's backyard, and some of the family members, the maidservant's deed of sale, the tenant rent of the family, etc., will be slowly handed over to the Zhou Ding family for management.

When Zhou Ding first entered the Zhou family, he listened to his father-in-law's words and responded with a restrained face.

Zhou Fang was like a fool, standing aside silly, Zhou Qingli asked a question before answering, and her eyes were staring at her daughter-in-law.

After Zhou Qingli said this, she explained some things about returning to the door, which was the end of the morning tea ceremony and the complete ceremony of Zhou Fang's marriage.

Zhou Fang also had a lot of things to do next, in addition to returning to the door, he also had to entertain those friends.

Zhou Zheng stayed in the house for a long time, and then walked around Zhouji and Jiujiang Pavilion as usual, and was also preparing to return to the Imperial Palace.

Jianyu had just withdrawn his troops, and there was a lot of joy in the court, and all kinds of rewards were in full swing.

A group of people from the Wei family were knighted, and the eunuchs added various princes and princesses, all of them were knighted, and they were full of merit and glory.

On June 19, Wang Zhichen left Beijing, and Zhou Zheng sent him.

This person is now considered a traitor to his relatives, and I don't know how many people impeached him before, and his relatives, friends, teachers, and friends all drew a line with him. The reason why he was able to leave Beijing alive was that Liaodong won the battle and got a little light, otherwise he would have stayed in the prison.

Wang Zhichen was calm, looked at Zhou Zheng who came to see him off, and said with emotion: "When you come, you are well-dressed, and when you go, you are alone." At this time, it is also gratifying that someone can still come to deliver it. ”

Zhou Zhengneng guessed his current state of mind and said, "My lord is just going temporarily, so there is no need to be discouraged." ”

Wang Zhichen smiled and looked at Zhou Zhengdao: "How is it?" Have you thought about it? ”

Zhou Zheng knew that he was talking about Yongping Mansion, so he didn't hide it: "Xiaguan is still thinking about it." ”

Wang Zhichen did not know that in history, Jianyu would enter the customs from Xifengkou in the second year of Chongzhen, that is, the year after that, and Yongping Mansion bore the brunt.

Now that Liaodong is stable, Yongping Mansion is not dangerous.

Although puzzled, Wang Zhichen still said: "Then you should think about it, if you take the initiative to go, I am afraid that many people will take the initiative to help." ”

Yongping Mansion is a place that has gone through hardships, chaotic, plus Jizhou, Shanhaiguan are there, no one wants to go, some people take the initiative to ask Ying, some people in the court will really be very happy, help the horse to send a ride.

With Zhou Zheng's current ability, it is not difficult to go to Yongping Mansion if he wants to operate, and said, "The lower officials will seriously consider it." ”

Wang Zhichen looked at Zhou Zheng, with endless emotion in his heart, and said: "No need to send it, the court will be very busy in the future, you can go back to the Imperial Court as soon as possible, and you can still do something." ”

The court is busy fighting for merit, busy adding officials to knighthood, and busy fighting for power and profit.

"Have a nice trip, sir." Zhou Zheng raised his hand.

Wang Zhichen looked at him, his face still couldn't help but feel lonely, nodded lightly, looked at the huge capital again, turned around and got into the carriage.

Just a carriage, on the official road outside the city, traveling alone.

Zhou Zheng watched him leave and stood for a while before returning to the city.

Jiujiang Pavilion is heightened day by day, and the outline is becoming clearer and clearer. Zhouji's factory is expanding, and there are already as many as sixty or seventy people, and the yards on both sides are merged, but they are still a little small.

Zhou Zheng spent a few days sorting out these things, and on June 22, he officially canceled his vacation and went to work in the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

The head and brain of the Metropolitan Procuratorate have been changed, and the same is true of Zhejiang Dao, and there are only three people who were familiar with it before.

Originally, Li Hengbing's class room is now Hu Qingzheng sitting.

Hu Qingzheng was sitting, and Zhou was standing in front of his desk.

Hu Qingzheng sat upright, blinked, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Yushi, is there something wrong?" ”

Zhou Zheng saw him putting up a score, and said directly: "I am optimistic about a shop, and the history is a little troublesome." ”

"Twenty taels!" Hu Qingzheng's face changed, and Zhou Zheng rushed to speak before he finished speaking.

"I'll want it in three days." Zhou Zhengdao.

"Two days." Hu Qingzheng is a serious way.

Zhou Zheng hummed and turned to leave.

Hu Qingzheng even subconsciously wanted to get up to send him off, but suddenly thought of his identity, and sat back with a straight face.

Zhou Zheng returned to his class room, and the desks, cabinets, chairs, and even the door had been replaced.

Yao Tongshun came in with a pot of tea, and said with a smile: "My lord, the gang before was broken, and the villain changed it for you." ”

Before the Metropolitan Procuratorate investigated Zhou Zheng, this squad room was almost dug three feet into the ground.

Zhou Zheng didn't care about this, took his tea, and said, "What's going on in the station?" ”

Yao Tongshun stood in front of Zhou Zheng and said: "It's not a big deal, the new director has carried out several rectifications of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and replaced a large number of people, but the adults have not been involved, and the affairs have been returned." ”

Cao Sicheng is the new Zuodu Yushi, a hardcore eunuch.

Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "What's the news in Liaodong?" ”

Yao Tongshun recalled and said: "There is no other news about the withdrawal of the troops, and the adults in Liaodong are expected to arrive in Beijing in mid-July." ”

When you arrive in Beijing in mid-July, you will receive the reward.

Zhou Zheng didn't care about this and asked, "What about Dongjiang Town?" ”

Yao Tongshun was stunned and said: "There is no news from Dongjiang Town, after all, it has only been more than ten days since Jianyu withdrew his troops, and the specific situation in Liaodong has not been sorted out and reported." ”

Zhou Zheng thought about it and said, "What has been the recent movement in the court?" ”

There are more in the court, Yao Tongshun looked at Zhou Zhengdao: "What aspect does the adult refer to?" ”

Zhou Zhengdao: "What do you think is related to me." ”

Yao Tongshun recalled for a while and said: "My lord, it stands to reason that there will be a reward for bringing back Liaodong, especially the news brought back, and now there should be an adult's share in the reward for meritorious deeds, but I don't know why, no one in the government and the opposition discussed this matter, and there was no rumor at all." ”

"Not strange."

Zhou Zhengdao. He went to the court twice, offended the eunuch party and the Donglin party, and it was good if he didn't trouble him, and if he wanted to get a reward, there was no door.

After Zhou Zheng finished saying this, he looked at the pile of documents on the table and said, "You keep an eye on it, notify me immediately if there is any trouble." ”

Yao Tongshun hurriedly said, "It's an adult." ”

Yao Tongshun also knew that Zhou Zheng's father and son had been called into the palace by the apocalypse, although there was no reward behind, but this kind of 'heavenly favor' still made many people very optimistic about the Zhou family and actively invested.

Yao Tongshun, a small official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is originally a person from Zhou Zheng's class, and now he is naturally more attentive and looking forward to it.

Zhou Zheng took a piece of paperwork at hand and began to continue his business.

Zhou Zheng is just a supervising imperial history, unless he is a person who hates him very much, no one will care about him. When I returned to the Metropolitan Inspectorate again, there was no sound and no wind and waves.

When he was about to get off work, Hu Qingzheng suddenly came to Zhou Zheng's room, with a nervous and solemn expression.

Zhou Zheng had a special relationship with him, and there was no obvious distinction between superior and inferior, so he poured him a cup of tea and said, "What happened?" ”

Hu Qingzheng frowned, and said: "Li Guopu wrote to impeach Wei Zhongxian, saying that he formed a party for personal gain, fought for merit, and caused chaos in the dynasty. ”

Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, and now anyone dares to openly impeach Wei Zhongxian? Hu Qingzheng's words, I'm afraid I still say it leisurely, and now impeachment is often a dozen or twenty major crimes, not to mention Wei Zhongxian.

Zhou Zheng, the name Li Guopu, had a vague impression and said, "Who is this person?" ”

Hu Qingzheng looked at Zhou Zheng, hesitated with a fat face, and said, "Shao Zhan Shi, the Japanese official." ”

Zhou Zheng'ao nodded slightly, thoughtfully.

The so-called daily lecturer is that according to the etiquette law, there must be several lectures in the palace every month, and the emperor must listen carefully.

These people are from Hanlin and often teach the crown prince or the eldest son of the emperor, so there is no accident that the crown prince or the eldest son of the emperor succeeds to the throne, and these people are the team of the cabinet.

Zhou Zheng already remembered this person, a future first assistant.

This person chose to write a letter to impeach Wei Zhongxian at this time, did he see the right time, or was he enthusiastic?

Hu Qingzheng saw that Zhou Zheng didn't speak, so he answered again and said, "I'm close to him." ”

Zhou Zheng understood the purpose of Hu Qing Zheng's coming at this time, and said, "Are you going to write a book for impeachment together?" ”

Hu Qingzheng's fat face was tangled and uncomfortable, and he looked at Zhou Zheng with small eyes and didn't speak.

Now that the eunuch party is in power, where does anyone dare to openly impeach? There are so many corpses in front, the blood has not dried yet, and the bloody atmosphere fills the entire capital!

What's more, now that Liaodong has won a big victory, Wei Zhongxian has taken the merit, rewarded him lavishly, and the eunuch party is angry with the nebula, who dares to pick up the tiger's beard at this time?

Zhou Zheng knew that Hu Qingzheng was timid and afraid, so he pondered for a moment and said, "If you don't care about the future, you can pretend to be deaf and dumb in this matter, or simply resign from the office." If you want to gamble and have a great future, follow the book. ”

Li Guopu is the first assistant of the Chongzhen Dynasty, and there will be a glorious moment.

Hu Qingzheng's small eyes blinked, looked at Zhou Zheng, and whispered, "Is there any other way?" ”

Zhou Zheng shook his head secretly, Hu Qingzheng didn't want to resign from office, nor did he want to have a future, he thought about it, and said: "Then find a trivial matter, impeach the pawn of the eunuch party, and let that relative see it without embarrassing you too much." ”

Hu Qingzheng thought about it, nodded, and felt that this was the way, but his face was not easy, and he was just about to leave, and said: "By the way, there has been a voice in the imperial court recently, saying that it is necessary to abolish the other eight towns in the nine towns except Shanhaiguan, and make every effort to consolidate Shanhaiguan and Liaodong. ”
