Chapter 612: Murder with a Soft Knife

Zhou Yanru's face sank like water when he heard it, and he didn't know what this meant.

Li Juesi took a deep breath and said, "Yuanfu, Zheng Xibo is really angry. What do we do now? ”

If Zhou Zheng comes like this, not only will the clan be imprisoned and return to Beijing, shaking the country's capital, but also grabbing power in the court and marginalizing them!

Chen Yan, Zhang Sizhi and others are in a difficult situation, and they are full of regret for entering the dynasty and dare not say more.

Li Rixuan looked at Zhou Yanru with a solemn expression, and said: "Sun Chuanting and others have made frequent moves in the Ministry of Officials, and they will streamline the organization for a while, reshape their functions and powers for a while, and adjust the evaluation system of officials inside and outside Beijing. Zheng Xibo's ambition to change the law has been undisguised, and the lower officials are worried, this matter is afraid that it is a beginning, a start......"

Everyone's expressions gradually became worried with Li Rixuan's words.

Zhou Yanru was dizzy and angry by this series of things, stood up and said: "If you want to accept the order, he Zhou Zhengyun has to go, if he really dares to mess around, the old man will slash him!" ”

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched when they heard this, and Zhou Yanru, the chief assistant of civil officials, was obviously angry when he said the words 'hand blade', but he also said that he was powerless against Zhou Zheng and could only speak verbally.

Could it be that this old Shoufu is really capable of assassinating his colleagues with a dagger?

Everyone is also powerless against Zhou Zheng now, so they can only follow Zhou Yanru into the palace, hoping to persuade Zhou Zheng in the Jinluan Palace.

Strictly speaking, Zhou Zheng is a 'correction of the decree', and those who can come to receive the decree are all the heads of the cabinet, the heads of the six ministries and nine temples, the cabinet ministers, the six shangshu, the squire, the nine temples and the temple, etc.

Zhou Zheng's family came in one after another, and the people from Zhou Yanru's family immediately questioned unceremoniously.

"Does the emperor know about this?"

"Is this will from the emperor's order?"

"The vassal king of the clan is the foundation of the country, even the emperor can't make a decision in one word, it should be discussed by the court, what are you going to do?"

"We don't accept this will, we don't admit it, we want to see the emperor and ask for an understanding!"

……

Zhou Yanru's people surrounded Sun Chuanting, Zhang Heyi, Gao Hongtu and others and kept asking questions, and the momentum was violent.

Sun Chuanting and the others have a lot of time, they are all at the level of squires, and they can't really argue with these people, so they can only deal with them occasionally.

Zhou Zheng came late, and under the escort of Liu Liuzhe, he entered the Jinluan Palace.

Zhou Zheng's position was second only to Zhou Yanru, before Qian Qianyi, he stepped in, and the entire Jinluan Hall was suddenly quiet, and everyone's eyes looked at him, and they couldn't help but bow down to show respect.

Zhou Zheng greeted everyone with a smile, came to Zhou Yanru and Qian Qianyi, and greeted: "Yuan Fu, Qian Ge Lao." ”

Qian Qianyi was not qualified to greet Zhou Zheng, laughed with him, and quietly took a step back.

Zhou Yanru wrinkled his brows, grimaced coldly, and said, "If I don't admit this will, what should you do?" ”

Zhou Yanru's voice was not loud or small, and it was thunderous in the quiet Jinluan Palace, and everyone could hear it clearly.

Everyone was first shocked, then stunned, and then in a trance.

Has the Ming court reached this level?

A cabinet minister, Zheng Xibo is openly pretentious, and all the courtiers know it, and they dare not speak out.

A Shousuke openly discusses the 'legitimacy' of this correction, with a 'transaction' tone!

Is this the Ming Dynasty? Is this still the Ming Dynasty? When did it get to this point?

Or did they get to this point a long time ago, but they realized it too late?

Too many people are in a trance, and some are difficult to accept. The former Huanghuang Celestial Empire, the majestic and domineering Ming Dynasty, is it really chaotic to the end?

Everyone was still in a trance, Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "This is a holy decree, Yuan Fu doesn't admit it, and Xia Guan doesn't believe it." ”

Not recognizing the holy decree is equivalent to resisting the decree, which is a capital crime of stealing the family and destroying the clan.

Zhou Yanru didn't believe that Zhou Zheng would exterminate him, but he also knew that if he didn't admit it, he would force Zhou Zheng to go further, so he had to soften his tone and said: "I know that you are dissatisfied with the recent events, but there is no need to be so radical, leave the matter to me to deal with, I will definitely satisfy you." ”

Zhou Zheng glanced at Chen Yan, Zhang Sizhi and others, and said: "Jiadingbo, Tai Kangbo and others are bewitching the emperor behind their backs, framing the court, and dividing the monarchs and ministers, Yuan Fu really doesn't know anything about these things?" ”

Zhou Kui and others wanted to seize military power from Zhou Zheng, so they naturally hid it from Zhou Zheng, but Zhou Yanru's relationship network was stronger than Zhou Zheng, I don't know how much, and they really didn't notice it at all? Or do you sit back and wait to see a good show?

Now, the drama is smashed, and you want to redeem it?

The corners of Zhou Yanru's face twitched, and he said in a deep voice: "To tell the truth, if you are pretentious, even if I can't oppose it, I can still pick and choose!" If I quit the dynasty, how can you continue to perform this one-man show? ”

The people around him looked bitter, and their expressions didn't know whether they were happy or sad.

They finally understood that they woke up too late!

The Ming Dynasty has long been in a shattered mess, and it has long been a power game between the two superiors, and others are not qualified to participate at all. The so-called 'exaggeration' was a big rebellion in the past, but now, it should be a common thing!

These people are still in a trance, overbearing, when did it start? From the time of Zhang Juzheng? When did you fiddle with it casually? Wei Zhongxian's period of arbitrary power?

They couldn't think clearly, but they knew that this was not the first time, nor was it accidental, it was gradually accumulated, and the Ming Dynasty was really rotten and shattered!

Zhou Zheng glanced at Qian Qianyi casually, smiled and said to Zhou Yanru: "Now that the situation is chaotic, all parts of the country are in turmoil, Yuan Fu, as the first assistant, shoulders a heavy responsibility, how can he pick a son, the lower officials don't believe it." ”

Zhou Yanru saw Zhou Zheng's eyes, and glanced at Qian Qianyi coldly, and his heart exploded.

He originally thought that pulling Qian Qianyi into the cabinet could divide Zhou Zheng's power, but he didn't expect that this was in Zhou Zheng's arms, and it was actually the spare tire he found for Zhou Yanru, the successor!

Without waiting for Zhou Yanru to say more, Li Huazhen came in from the side door of the Jinluan Hall with the holy decree, and said sharply: "The holy decree has arrived!" ”

Whether it's true or not, when the decree comes, they have to make an appearance.

A group of people turned sideways one after another, raising their hands, ready to meet the Divine Decree.

Zhou Yanru's old face was pale, and he stared at Zhou Zhengdao: "I want you to give up the inner court, and you must not continue to confine the emperor and give the emperor the respect he deserves." If you don't say yes, I'll turn around and leave now! ”

Without the first assistant to take over the decree, the credibility of Zhou Zheng's will will be greatly reduced, and his prestige will be affected.

Zhou Zheng pretended to think for a moment and said, "Xu Wenjue hand it over." ”

Zhou Yanru frowned, then snorted coldly, turned to Li Huazhen, and said loudly: "Minister Zhou Yanru takes the order." ”

He bowed, Zhou Zheng raised his hand to follow, Qian Qianyi, and Zhang Sizhi and others behind him hurriedly followed.

In the Jinluan Palace, there are many people who are independent of the 'two weeks', such as Li Banghua, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Tian Zhenshu, the squire of the Ministry of Works. They were deaf to the conversation of the 'second week' and their faces were expressionless.

They have a clearer view of the court situation, and they are even more clear about the current situation of the Ming court.

At this time, Li Huazhen glanced at everyone, spread out the holy decree, and said in a long voice: "The edict said: Our country is sacred, and it is a martyr, and it is beautiful and vulgar. I am the emperor of Daxing, Rendu Hantian, Yingmo Xiangu, Li Jing Xiao, Rui Xian An, Haiyu Flash, Wei Xinjiang Territory, diligent recovery, all opportunities, six acts of rest. However, the clan is in solidarity, the compatriots are helpless, the flattery is to the thief, the flattery is to the rebellion, the heavens are calling, and I am helpless. Judgment, the three divisions of the trial, do not indulge in vain, punish the former and the latter, and ...... a total of rare "

Everyone listened to this will, but they didn't feel anything, recalling the first emperor, remembering the bittersweet memory? Or will the power of judgment be handed over to the three divisions, that is, Zhou Zheng?

Everyone's eyes looked at Zhou Zheng as if they were nothing, and they wondered in their hearts.

Zhou Yanru's face was expressionless, he knew that Zhou Zheng must have a back hand.

Sure enough, Li Huazhen agreed with the holy decree, looked at Zhou Yanru, and said with a smile: "Yuanfu, Zheng Xibo, Your Majesty said, rebellion, you should be killed, there is no need to show mercy, I don't raise traitors, and the clan should be even more so." ”

A group of people in the main hall had numb scalps and shocked faces.

It's not terrible to give an order to kill, it's terrible to be this kind of 'verbal', and there is too much room for maneuver!
