The heavy snow in the capital came suddenly, and it lasted for a long time, it was still raining endlessly, and the temperature was getting colder and colder, and the people were huddled in the house, refusing to come out.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate is about to get off work, but very few people come out.

In the Zhejiang Provincial Corridor, some imperial historians gathered in a class room, still discussing Zhou Zheng's affairs.

"It's been a day, why hasn't there been any movement, how to deal with it, I have to give an explanation, right?"

"Yes, it's strange to say, why is it so quiet this time, Zhou Zheng has caused such a big disaster, and he was taken away by Jinyiwei, he should have set the tone a long time ago."

"I heard that there are more than forty copies of the impeachment of Zhou Zheng, and there is no one in the court to speak?"

"Also, there is no movement on the side of the edict, and it has been interrogated for a day, why is there no news at all? Whether he pleaded guilty or tortured, why didn't anyone leak a trace of information? ”

Hu Qingzheng cleaned up, came out of the class room, and heard it when he passed by this door, he paused in his steps, and then snorted loudly.

The room was suddenly quiet, and Hu Qingzheng raised his head, held his big belly, shook his two arms, and walked away.

Metropolitan Procuratorate, other hidden corners.

"Have you heard? The investigation of Zhou Zheng was stopped. ”

"What! How will it stop? Hasn't he already been arrested and sent to prison? Could it be that he has already been condemned? ”

"Not only the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but also the Criminal Department, and the Ministry of Officials have also stopped, not only for Zhou Zheng, but also for Zhou Qingli, all of them have stopped......"

"What the hell is going on, how did it stop? Zhou Zheng is obviously an official who bought it, and he offended so many people, dozens of impeachment scripts, it can't be so silent, right? ”

"This matter, it's strange to say, anyway, it's stopped, I have investigated carefully, and it has indeed stopped."

"What does this mean by eunuch? Arrested in prison here, stopped ...... there"

"I think Zhou Zheng is really finished this time, and it is very likely that he will not be able to come out."

"That's not necessarily, I've checked, Zhou Zheng's family property is afraid that there are twenty or thirty thousand, if he smashes it in, he may come out ......"

"Impossible! Who did he offend this time, how many people, and tens of thousands of taels of silver do you want to settle it? Is he even? Besides, isn't giving silver at this time tantamount to looking for death? ”

"So what the hell is going on?"

"I think, it's still our recital book that is less written, let's go to the book again!"

"Okay, then go up, go now, I don't believe it, how long can a small superintendent of the imperial history last!"

"Yes, let's continue to read, I don't believe it, those people above are blind!"

"Hmph, the eunuch party is estimated to punish Zhou Zheng, we set up firewood, the eunuch party will definitely ignite the fire, and Zhou Zheng will die!"

"Okay, let's go write the recital!"

……

Experience Division, a remote room.

This is a place for the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to introspect, that is, the room where they were placed under house arrest before the official arrest.

Tian Zhenshu and Zheng Shouli sat opposite each other, with solemn faces.

"Zhengyun was arrested and put in prison, I'm afraid that there will be more luck and less luck." Tian Zhenshu's big eyes are gloomy.

Zheng Shouli nodded silently, his expression became more and more resentful, and he said angrily: "There has been no such thing since ancient times, we are upright and seek affairs with the country, and admonish in front of the court, how can we be imprisoned?" It's ridiculous! ”

Tian Zhenshu sighed in his heart and said: "Now that the friends are in power, how can anyone care about state affairs, they only care about power. I regret it now, I shouldn't have pulled him in, we hurt him. ”

Zheng Shouli shook his head and said: "Brother Zhengyun's blood is strong, dedicated to the country, you see that day he was in the court, he was in danger, he was generous, he was fearless, even if we don't look for him, I'm afraid he will take the initiative to stand up." ”

Tian Zhenshu nodded lightly in agreement and said, "That's what I said, but this time, it was indeed us who affected him." ”

Zheng Shouli stopped speaking this time, and his heart was heavy. Tian Zhenshu is right, Zhou Zheng was arrested and imprisoned, I am afraid that it is really difficult to escape.

Li Hengbing's class room.

He sat in his chair, his eyes slightly closed, and his face was indifferent.

He already knew that the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Ministry of Officials had stopped investigating Zhou Zheng and Zhou Qingli, and there were so many impeachment notes, and there was no reaction at all.

There is an indescribable weirdness in this.

Li Hengbing thought silently in his heart, Zhou Zheng's relationship network is actually very simple, and he can't settle this matter at all. But why is there such a calm on the side of the eunuchs? Even if Zhou Zheng was arrested and imprisoned, there was no rumor at all?

In addition, on the side of the Donglin Party, there seem to be only some low-level speech officials calling, and those who have weight do not speak, why is this?

After a while, Li Hengbing opened his eyes, and said to himself with a cold look: "No matter what, you don't want to come out again." ”

At this time, the Zhou family and Zhou Zheng's industry were silent.

The Zhou family was closed, no one was seen, and no one came out.

Zhou Zheng's weekly notes, Zhou's tooth line movements all stopped, and everyone no longer had a trace of movement.

……

The next day, the heavy snow finally stopped, and there was still a ray of sunshine over the capital.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the people rarely go out, but the officials who go to work still enter the various yamen points without any mistakes.

Many people go to work normally, but some people are restless and anxious in the work room.

They are in the book again, there are more than 50 books, and the court should always have a little reaction, right?

Everyone was waiting, waiting for Zhou Zheng's disposal decision.

Not only those Donglin Party, but Jiangxi Province is also waiting, waiting for Zhou Zheng's results, I don't know how many people are looking at Li Hengbing's class room with their eyes.

If Zhou Zheng is disposed of, it will be Li Hengbing's victory, who would dare to underestimate and provoke his authority?

Li Hengbing sat in the class room, and he didn't want to do anything, he was calm on the surface, but he was also tormented in his heart.

Either way, there will be results today, and it is impossible to delay any longer.

Time passed little by little, and until noon, neither the imperial court nor the Metropolitan Procuratorate reacted at all, as if they had forgotten about it.

All kinds of voices sounded in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but this time they no longer concealed it, but spoke openly, and even some people ran to several heads of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to ask what was going on.

But what is obtained is almost all vagueness, and there is no conclusive conclusion.

People from other places are also inquiring in the Criminal Department, the Ministry of Officials and other places, but they still can't know what is going on, and this matter is slowly becoming a little obscure.

Finally stayed up until noon, and there was an uproar in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and all kinds of strange sounds came out.

"What the hell is going on? Those adults in the court watched Zhou Zheng get away with it? ”

"No, no, this matter is evil, if it was usual, it would have been dealt with a long time ago, even if the court didn't speak, the Metropolitan Procuratorate would have to react, why didn't there move on either side?"

"It's as quiet and terrible as not only the imperial court, but also the Imperial Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Ministry of Officials, and there is no movement on the side of the Imperial Prison, which is really strange......"

"These departments are all in the hands of the eunuchs, could it be that Zhou Zheng really took refuge in the eunuchs?"

"Even if he takes refuge in the eunuchs, can a small imperial history make the court all silent?"

"What's going on, this thing doesn't make sense, why has there to be a news coming out, right?"

Li Hengbing's class room.

Li Hengbing has already investigated this matter through some means, but the feedback is very inexplicable, and he doesn't know what the problem is.

"I really underestimated you." Li Hengbing's eyes narrowed, flashing coldly.

He was still hesitating, hesitating whether to make an exceptional move, he prided himself on being a righteous man, and disdained those obscure and ghostly methods.

But Zhou Zheng made him feel angry and dangerous.
