Chapter 485: Confrontation

Yang Sichang stepped forward with a smile and politely raised his hand and said, "Princess." ”

Wang Chengen has always kept a distance from the courtiers, but he is also extremely familiar, and nodded and said with a smile: "Elder Yang Ge." ”

Yang Sichang glanced around, and when he saw that there was no one, he stepped forward and whispered: "Princess, can you show your mouth, what does the emperor think of Zhou Zhengyun?" It is a matter of our military department, and I dare not be careless. ”

Wang Chengen still smiled and said: "The heart of heaven is unpredictable, how can I know if I am a eunuch." I also advise Yang Ge Lao that the court should be peaceful. ”

Wang Chengen obviously knew that it was Yang Sichang who targeted Zhou Zheng.

Yang Sichang was not surprised, savoring Wang Chengen's words, and said with a slightly condensed expression: "Zhou Zhengyun, is it so important in the emperor's heart?" ”

Wang Chengen smiled slightly again and said, "I'll do everything I say, and the pavilion boss will do it himself." ”

After Wang Chengen finished speaking, he bypassed Yang Sichang and walked towards the Qianqing Palace.

Yang Sichang looked at Wang Chengen's back, his brows furrowed, and his eyes flashed sharply.

He couldn't figure out why the emperor would be so 'tolerant' of Zhou Zheng, and he didn't ask a word to this extent, as if he hadn't heard or seen it at all!

What went wrong?

Yang Sichang is very clear about Zhou Zheng's resume, and he also knows that Zhou Zheng's father, Zhou Qingli, is an old minister of Chongzhen's Qiandi Mansion, but these are not enough to make His Majesty the Emperor in the Qianqing Palace show mercy and shelter to this extent!

The corners of Yang Sichang's face twitched, his eyes flashed, and he said to himself coldly: "Since this is the case, then it's no wonder that I'm wrong!" ”

Yang Sichang's voice did not fall, he flicked his sleeves and strode away.

Yang Sichang's movements were very fast, and the military department had not yet left work, and there were various actions.

One is the empty salary case in Liaodong, which was exposed in the Ministry of War.

The second is the Qianhu Shangshu of the former Tianjin Wei, accusing Zhou Zheng of robbing private property after killing meritorious service, and carrying troops to respect himself.

The third is the recital of King Lu of Yanzhou Prefecture, who accused Ma Shiying of the reform in Shandong, especially about the 'military reform', wanton training of troops, stationing troops, colluding with courtiers, and suspected of plotting against him.

These have real evidence and facts, and when they reach the imperial court, they will inevitably fry the pot.

And another piece of bad news soon reached Zhou Zheng's ears.

Zhang Heyi and Yao Tongshun hurriedly came to Zhou Zheng's room, and said with an angry face: "My lord, they captured Ding Qi!" ”

Zhou Zheng sat on the chair, his eyes were fiercely indifferent, and he said coldly: "Our adults, I really can't wait!" ”

Yao Tongshun was a little anxious, and said: "My lord, Yang Shangshu is so anxious, I'm afraid he won't scruple anymore, if he uses means against Ding Qi, adults may be in trouble." ”

Ding Qi is the younger brother of Zhou Zheng's sister-in-law Zhou Ding, Zhou Fang's brother-in-law, and has always been called Zhou Zheng's second brother in private.

If Ding Qi really said something, it would indeed be enough to send Zhou Zheng to prison.

Not to mention anything else, just say that Ding Qi wants to testify that the Zhou Chamber of Commerce and the Zhou ticket number are Zhou Zheng's industry, and the imperial court and Chongzhen will definitely not tolerate it.

However, Zhou just took a moment to complete and sneered: "If he arrests you, I will have to personally negotiate with our Shangshu lord, but Ding Qi, don't be afraid, wait and see." ”

Zhang Heyi and Yao Tongshun glanced at each other, a little puzzled, and when they saw that Zhou Zheng was so determined, they didn't speak again.

At this time, in the backyard of the military department, in a utility room, Lang Zhong Shan Lin was leading a few people to stare at Ding Qi who was tied to a chair.

Shan Lin was sitting on the chair, playing with the sharp dagger in his hand, his expression was indifferent, he tilted his head, and said in a casual tone: "You are a smart person, you shouldn't need me to say more, right?" Say something and spare your whole family. ”

Ding Qi struggled to move, feeling a little better, and then looked at Shan Lin Zhengdao: "Heh, Master Shan, I dare to say, you may not dare to listen." ”

Shan Lin turned his head to look at him and said, "If you dare to say it, there is nothing I dare not listen to." ”

Ding Qi glanced at the few people present, stared at Shan Linzheng, and said, "Okay, listen, these are all through my hands and are well documented." Chongzhen for three years, Tai Kangbo, five thousand taels. In the fourth year of Chongzhen, Cao Huachun was 6,000 taels and 600 acres of fertile land. In the fifth year of Chongzhen, the internal supervisor Li Huazhen was included, a total of 30,000 taels, shops, houses, and fertile land were worth 30,000 taels. In the sixth year of Chongzhen, the officials of the six departments of the cabinet, 30,000 taels, and every year after that. In the seventh year of Chongzhen, the queen celebrated her birthday, and half of the birthday gift was from me, with a total value of 14,000 taels. Chongzhen's eight years of various expenditures of 70,000 taels, all given to people inside and outside the palace, last year was 90,000, this year is 120,000. You want the list, and I can write it to you right now. It's just, what can you do if you get it? Lord Shangshu is in full swing now, do you really dare to make a fuss about this to attack my family? ”

Shan Linzheng's face changed halfway through hearing this, and in the end, his eyes flickered gloomily, staring at Ding Qi.

These people, none of them are easy to mess with, not to mention Tai Kangbo, Empress Zhang, it is these internal eunuchs, their words are enough to make the ministers tremble, not to mention so many people!

The other soldiers also looked at each other with panicked expressions when they heard this.

Shan Linzheng quickly calmed down and sneered, "You really bribed so many people? I don't believe it! ”

Ding Qi was unhurried and said, "I know there are more, so many that you can't believe it." Don't waste time with me, don't you see who I am? Our Ding family and the Zhou family are one, if something happens to my second brother, will I be okay? Now go tell Lord Shangshu and let him prepare for the future." ”

Shan Lin was listening to Ding Qi's words, his face suddenly sank, and he said, "What does Zhou Zhengyun want to do!" ”

Yang Sichang and his people are actually waiting, waiting for Zhou Zheng to fight back, but all this time, Zhou Zheng has not made any movement, which has given them a lot of pressure, and no one will think that Zhou Zheng is sitting still, and there must be something brewing.

Ding Qi struggled again and said, "Let me tell you one more thing, the household department has borrowed 800,000 yuan from Zhou's ticket number, which will expire in January next year, and with interest, the total amount will be 900,000." I guess I can't pay it back, the new Li Shangshu personally went to the ticket number yesterday and wanted to borrow another 300,000. ”

The newly appointed head of the household department, Li Shiwen, was a person who strongly opposed the 'ten-sided net', believing that the 'ten-sided net' could not do its best, and would also drain the treasury for several years, which was a move to quench his thirst, and he attacked Yang Sichang many times in the court, and also constrained Yang Sichang on the issue of money and grain.

Shan Linzheng heard the taste from Ding Qi's words, sneered more and more, and said, "Do you think that Li Shiwen can impeach my family?" ”

Ding Qi looked calm and said, "Then it depends on whether the handle is big or not, you can go and ask, it's late, Yang Shangshu has no time to go home and say goodbye." ”

Shan Lin was pressing the dagger under Ding Qi's neck, and said coldly: "If you don't want to die, just tell me honestly, what kind of handle are you talking about!" ”

Ding Qi leaned his neck forward and sneered, "You dare to kill me? Do you think that the money I gave away was given for nothing? A little guy like you, they can tear your whole family to shreds with a single word! ”

Shan Linzheng's face was indifferent, his eyes were like poisonous snakes, he stared at Ding Qi for a long time, turned around and said, "Give me a good look at him!" ”

"Yes!" The soldier hurriedly responded.

Shan Lin was out of the utility room and walked straight towards Yang Sichang's class room.

Yang Sichang is preparing to leave Beijing, and 'ten-sided netting' is his long-term business, so he naturally has to prepare everything and will not relax in the slightest.
