，

After a few small attendants outside the door left, only the emperor, the queen mother, Zhang Juzheng, and Feng Bao were left in the cloud platform.

Empress Dowager Li looked at Zhu Yijun on the throne, he was sitting on the throne, holding the armrest, looking at Zhang Juzheng. Empress Dowager Li breathed a sigh of relief. 

"May I ask Mr. Zhang, what are you afraid of affecting me?" 

When Zhang Juzheng heard this question, he couldn't help but feel a sudden in his heart, although he was using this to draw out his own purpose, but he didn't expect the little emperor to ask such a question, such a question obviously had the flavor of questioning, which was different from his initial estimate. Therefore, he subconsciously glanced at the little emperor, and then replied:

"Back to the emperor, recently, in addition to hearing the rumors that the ministers are traitors, I also heard from them, and said...... The minister didn't dare to say! ”

"What don't you dare to say!" 

"Yes, Mr. Zhang just speak up!" 

Empress Dowager Li raised her voice and asked.

Feeling that the eyes of the Empress Dowager Li and the emperor were on his body, Zhang Juzheng did not dare to face it, lowered his eyelids, coughed twice, and replied: "

"When the first emperor died, the emperor ascended to the pole, and the ministers of the palace and ministries all worked together to assist the holy lord to create a new era. Although there are occasional discordant sounds, it does not affect the etiquette and law, and the ministers also try their best to manage the country's affairs, fortunately, the world is still peaceful in recent years. ”

"Mr. Zhang, your credit is known to the mourning family."

Empress Dowager Li's eyes flashed, and she said again.

"But some people call you a traitor, and the emperor is a faint king!" 

"Death to the minister!"

Zhang Juzheng, who was kneeling, hurriedly kowtowed.

"Everything is known to Your Majesty, so the minister wants to ask for a performance, and ask Your Majesty's quasi-ministers to return to their hometowns." 

"Mr. Zhang, are you going to abandon me just because of someone else's rumor?"

Again, Zhu Yijun asked.

"Do you have anything else you haven't said?"

The reason why Zhu Yijun said this is because he knows that Zhang Juzheng is definitely not a person who speaks because of a few words, and there must be a reason why he says this now. 

"Minister......

Seeing that Zhang Juzheng was silent, Zhu Yijun said sharply.

"Mr. Zhang, do you want to deceive me?" 

"Yes, since you can force Mr. Zhang to do this, it must be a big deal, can Mr. Zhang bear to leave us orphans and widows behind?" 

Empress Dowager Li also echoed on the side. When her words fell, Zhang Juzheng choked up and said:

"The first emperor and his subordinates have an unswerving friendship between monarchs and ministers. When the first emperor died, the following ministers assisted the government, and the ministers swore that in this life, they would definitely assist His Majesty to create a world of great prosperity in my Ming Dynasty, but, but today, others spread rumors that the subordinates are traitors among the people of Shilin, and Your Majesty is a faint king, where can the subordinates allow people to slander Your Majesty so much, but, the subordinates, the subordinates are worried that someone deliberately spread this rumor, in order to do something that is not subordinate in the future! ”

"What!"

Zhu Yijun and Empress Dowager Li got up almost at the same time, and a trace of panic flashed in both of their eyes, especially Empress Dowager Li, who is as smart as her, how could she not know that if she could "force" Mr. Zhang to give a speech, then this matter may not be untargeted.

"Mr. Zhang, this, what the hell is going on."

The reaction of the emperor and the queen mother fell into Zhang Juzheng's eyes, he sighed, and then said.

"Your Majesty, last year, Shi Yiwen, the General Department of Taxation of the Banknote Customs, was assassinated in Nanjing, and the minister was ordered by His Majesty to make a strict investigation, but he never thought that thousands of people were involved, and the minister was surprised and even more frightened. Thousands of people were implicated in the assassination of the Chincha, some were plotters, some were hands-on, and some provided cover...... So many people, so bold, in the final analysis, is because of the opposition to the reform carried out by the minister, the minister's self-ask since the implementation of the reform, everything they have done is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, and they are for their own selfishness, do this unrighteous thing, the minister instructed others to secretly investigate, but never thought about it, but found out that someone jumped over the wall in a hurry, and actually colluded with the vassal royal family, intending to use the excuse of "Qing Jun's side, punish the traitor"...... Therefore, since I learned the news, I thought that since everything was due to the minister, the minister asked for the minister, and so ......"

Without waiting for Zhang Juzheng to finish speaking, Empress Dowager Li cried.

"Mr. Zhang really thinks that if that's the case, those people will stop?"

Then she stared at Zhang Juzheng and said. 

"You are the minister of the first emperor's will, although Jun'er is the son of heaven, all these years and the affairs of the country and the world, are all Mr. Zhang's painstaking planning, so many years, how Mr. Zhang is loyal to the state affairs, how can the mourning family not know, now there are rebellious ministers and thieves who want to take the throne of the emperor, does Mr. really want to abandon us?"

As soon as Empress Dowager Li finished speaking, Zhu Yijun asked sharply.

"Who is it, who is so bold, actually, daring...... They want to punish traitors, and they clearly want to usurp the throne and rebel! Do they really think that I dare not kill! ”

It was the young Zhu Yijun who always wanted to do something and become a generation of Ming Jun, but he never thought that now someone would want to usurp the throne.

"Minister, minister ...... death"

Zhang Juzheng pressed his knees with both hands and said with his chin bowed.

"If the minister can avoid all this, the minister asks His Majesty to agree to the minister."

Empress Dowager Li felt that although Zhang Juzheng's words were sincere, she didn't know that this was not from his original intention, so she said. 

"How can Mr. Zhang speak like this, you are not only the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, but also the emperor's master, don't forget, in the fourth year of Longqing, you are the prince and the prince!" 

"The minister never dared to forget,"

Zhang Juzheng raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Yijun who was sitting on the throne, and said affectionately.

"As long as you can keep Your Majesty, what does it matter if the minister dies." 

"Ten thousand deaths!"

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and said.

"Mr. Zhang, since you are my master and the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and now there is a rebel minister in the court, is Mr. going to abandon his post? Is that how the gentleman behaves to the students? ”

Zhu Yijun stared at Zhang Juzheng and said.

"Minister, minister......"

Zhang Juzheng, who knew that the time was ripe, knocked again and said.

"Don't dare!"

"Mr. Zhang, even if you give them a treat, how can they let us two go."

"Yes, Shousuke, put it in the eyes of those chaotic ministers and thieves, but there is no emperor and queen mother, even if you are a minister, they will be rebellious!"

Feng Bao, who had been frightened for a long time, also said.

"Mr. Zhang, you tell me that those people are involved!"

Zhu Yijun's eyes widened, staring at Zhang Juzheng and asked. 

"Although the minister doesn't know how many people are involved, the minister knows that they are ready, and when the time comes, they will launch ......."

"In that case, what are you going to do?"

Compared with before, Zhu Yijun calmed down, he walked over and helped Zhang Juzheng and said.

"Mr. Zhang, no matter what, please save the students!"
