Chapter 80: Weighing the Pros and Cons

To see or not to see, at this time it is definitely difficult to choose, Li Guifei's eyes looked directly at Zhang Juzheng, but to see what he meant.

"Niangniang, see you." Zhang Juzheng's words were short and powerful, and he had already weighed the pros and cons. The most unexpected and worst result is that Shen Chongming has rebelled, even if he doesn't see it at this time, with this guy's ability, it will be easy to capture the palace inside. In this case, it is better to put on royal prestige to meet it, even if something really happens, it will not insult the royal name.

"Lord Zhang, I can't help it, according to our family's opinion, it is most appropriate to order Shen Chongming to retreat outside the city first." Feng Bao hurriedly said, his fear overflowing.

Li Guifei couldn't help frowning, as soon as it came to a crisis, a person's true 'nature' could be regarded as a 'revelation' of the bottom. On weekdays, this Feng Bao can be regarded as advancing and retreating, but now that the situation has changed slightly, he has become 'chaotic'. Even his own 'female' family can see that wanting Shen Chongming to lead his troops out of the city at this time is tantamount to a fool's dream, but he didn't expect him to be unable to see it, if he really did it according to his idea, he would definitely be laughing and generous. If it is more serious, I am afraid that Shen Chongming will have it even if he has no heart to rebel, after all, no one will be loyal to such a master who cannot judge the situation and assess the situation.

Too lazy to pay attention to Feng Bao, Concubine Li Guifei directly ordered: "Pass on the emperor's edict, and the old Xuangao Pavilion and his party will meet in the Qianqing Palace." ”

Seeing the inner 'servant' taking the order, Li Guifei turned to Zhang Juzheng and said: "Lord Zhang, I will entrust you with all the important things, the emperor is young, but if there is anything, please ask Lord Zhang to make the decision on your behalf." ”

Concubine Li knew in her heart that such a big thing was happening outside the palace, no matter who the leader was, there must be a purpose.

"Weichen understands, please rest assured." Zhang Juzheng bowed down and said, although his face was expressionless, he was ready to die alone, he had a deep holiday with Gao Gong Shen Chongming, such an opportunity, their master and apprentice naturally would not let go of themselves.

"Mother, no." Seeing that Li Guifei and Zhang Juzheng made a decision ignoring their own suggestions, Feng Bao couldn't help but say in a hurry.

"Father-in-law, Shen Chongming is not a fool, and Gao Gong is not easy to fool." Zhang Juzheng said this coldly, turned around and walked out.

The palace 'door' slowly opened, and without waiting for Gao Gong's command, Shen Chongming waved his hand at the second brother who was already ready to go, and this guy led the three thousand battalion soldiers with bright clothes and armor to enter the palace city.

What is the situation, the general who defended Miyagi already knew it, and at this time, there was no order to stop it, so he naturally would not bother himself, and respectfully transferred the right of defense to Brother Erdan.

"Guard the 'gate' of the palace and strictly prevent the 'chaotic' thieves from escaping." Brother Erdan commanded loudly, turned his head and looked around, met Gao Gong's somewhat displeased eyes, and immediately turned the horse's head and ran to the side. The old man is no better than his own adult, and if he annoys his old man, this is acceptable.

"Teachers, gentlemen, please." Shen Chongming said respectfully, the so-called gun shot the first bird, he has done such a big thing, it is better to keep a low profile at the moment, otherwise he will definitely provoke more hatred.

Gao Gong ignored it, nodded to the officials behind him, and walked into the palace 'gate' with his feet raised.

A large number of people in Hulala poured into the main hall, and the little emperor, who had just woken up, immediately became restless, looking left and right to know where his mother was.

"The ministers visit our emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live." Gao Gong took the lead in saluting, and all the officials knelt on the ground in unison. Seeing this situation, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that his analysis is correct.

"Mother." Unexpectedly, the little emperor was very frightened when he saw this situation, why wasn't his mother by his side today?

"The emperor has decreed that all of you will be exempt from courtesy." Helpless, Zhang Juzheng had no choice but to take his place, although he lost his prestige a little, but after all, he was just a child, and he was no wonder at all.

"The emperor is playing, and the ministers have their own music." As soon as he got up, Shen Chongming stood up. It's just that his demeanor is respectful and respectful, and he is more respectful than when he faced Emperor Longqing.

The little emperor panicked again, he knew that the strange guy in front of him was talking to him, but he didn't know how to talk, so he could only look at Zhang Juzheng.

"Lord Shen, please speak." Zhang Juzheng had a hint of helplessness on his face, he couldn't go on like this.

"Wechen impeached Feng Bao, the governor of the East Factory. This person bears the emperor's favor, but he does not want to serve the court, and for many years he has betrayed his official position to frame Zhongliang, and has accepted bribes and embezzled public silver. There are even more things that do not follow the laws and regulations of the imperial court and make unauthorized 'friends' to the generals at all levels of the Zhiwei with the intention of rebellion, and the ministers have enough evidence in their hands to prove this matter, and they also ask the emperor and the tall Lord Zhang to take a look. Speaking of which, Shen Chongming untied a small package from his back, this guy has been at the end since he entered the palace, but few people noticed that there was such an extra thing on him.

However, seeing Shen Chongming squatting on the ground regardless of his personal majesty, unwrapping and turning out a lot of folds, laughter sounded above the court hall where the atmosphere was originally a little tense, this Lord Shen is not a thing, there are people who impeach others like this, it is really shameless.

"Your Majesty, my lords, these are all the account books that Feng Bao has accepted bribes since he became the governor of Dongchang Factory, these are the confessions of the generals who secretly colluded with him in Shangzhiwei, this is a list of officials who have been wronged and imprisoned by Feng Bao over the years......" Shen Chongming showed them one after another, and everyone who watched them was dumbfounded, not knowing where he got such things.

It's also lucky, last night I flattened the East Factory, Brother Erdan didn't sleep all night, not only turned the East Factory up and down, but also interrogated the captured leaders one by one, everyone poured beans on the bamboo tube for the way to survive and generally said what Feng Bao had done over the years, adding up to a lot, but turned out a lot of old cases as evidence for Shen Chongming's impeachment of Feng Bao.

"Your Majesty, Lord Gao, Lord Zhang, Feng Bao's case is full of crimes, if he is not brought to justice, it will be difficult for the people to be angry." One after another, Shen Chongming 'licked' his lips and said this sentence half an hour later. There is no suspense about what is going on, no matter whether others believe these things or not, Feng Bao's charges are confirmed today.

"Your Majesty, Feng Bao's crime is extremely heinous, and he should be dealt with strictly and quickly, only in this way can the people's grievances be calmed." Gao Gong took over the conversation and said, but his eyes were looking at Zhang Juzheng. The emperor is still too young, as long as Zhang Juzheng nods his head and no one among the officials objects, it will be completed.

In the past half a day, Zhang Juzheng has understood the whole thing clearly in his heart. It seems that Shen Chongming put on such a big formation this time, and the purpose is Feng Bao.

The involvement is so small, and it is really beyond Zhang Juzheng's expectations. If only one Feng Bao can settle this matter, then Zhang Ju will not have any hesitation.

Looking up at the little emperor who was looking at him with anxiety, Zhang Juzheng finally made up his mind, Gonggong Feng, I'm sorry.

"Your Majesty, this matter will be decided after the ministers have discussed it." After that, Zhang Juzheng turned his head to look at it again: "Master Gao, I don't know what you think?" ”

"Okay, then let's discuss this matter with the cabinet first. However, Feng Bao must be imprisoned pending trial in case he escapes after hearing the news. Gao Gong said this, looking at Zhang Juzheng with burning eyes, where Feng Bao is, he must know.

Zhang Juzheng didn't speak, just nodded slightly, and agreed to this.

Soon after, Feng Bao, who was disheveled, was escorted out of the palace with a gagged mouth. Leaving the East Factory, the majestic factory in the past is a toothless tiger, with no dignity at all.

It is said that it is a cabinet discussion, but it is also a formality. Just an hour later, Feng Bao's fate was decided, and the evidence was conclusive, and he was reminded that he had been serving the emperor for many years and had given him a glass of poisoned wine to show the emperor's grace.

The poisonous wine killed Feng Bao, but Shen Chongming didn't bother to look at it. But whether he dies or not, as long as the crime is confirmed, then this life will be considered solid, and there will be no day to turn over.

At this time, it was almost noon. Shen Chongming ordered the army to withdraw from the city to stand by, and at the same time rushed to the cabinet and discussed with Gao Gong Zhang Juzheng about the convening of the court meeting, only when the position of the queen mother was determined, the matter could be regarded as truly over.

Listening to Shen Chongming respectfully talking to himself about this, Zhang Juzheng, who was still related to Feng Bao's death, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, teaching himself how not to be ashamed.

"Lord Shen, please don't hesitate to give me any advice." Shen Chongming showed goodwill, and Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but continue, and his attitude was very humble and spoken.

"Lord Zhang, for the position of the Queen Mother, Xia Guan and Gao Ge Lao discussed it yesterday. The new emperor ascended the throne, and according to the ancestral system, the position of the queen mother should be 'handed over' to the queen's mother, but the emperor's biological mother is a noble concubine, and the two identities are equally noble. Therefore, Xia Guan thought that the two mothers were both queen mothers, which was a way to get the best of both worlds. It's just that this idea is really a bit out of common sense, and I ask Lord Zhang to help me think about it. ”

Although Shen Chong's famous words are tactful, the meaning of them is clear to Zhang Juzheng. Although he didn't participate in this matter some time ago, he also thought about the pros and cons a lot. Choose any one, I am afraid that there will be hidden dangers, especially Queen Chen is the queen mother, sooner or later something will happen, after all, Li Guifei's methods, he has seen it, this time Feng Bao's death, he can be regarded as the initiator.

Now Shen Chongming suddenly proposed to ornate the two queen mothers at once, which also opened his mind.

Zhang Juzheng is not a person who sticks to vulgar etiquette, and after thinking about it slightly, he feels that Shen Chongming's method is good.

Nodding, Zhang Juzheng had a smile on his face. "Well, that's a good idea."
