Zhou Zheng not only read these materials, but even wrote to Wang Zhichen, asking him what he thought of Liaodong and some things that Zhou Zheng did not understand.

Wang Zhichen was dismissed, and many people asked for a resurrection, but Wang Zhichen was unwilling to come back and had been living at home.

Qian Xiangkun Zhishi, still caused changes in the court, eight cabinet ministers, went to three, the court held a discussion, and added Zheng Yiwei and Xu Guangqi into the cabinet in the way of enumeration.

Zhou Qingli, an old minister of the hidden mansion, and a trusted cronie of Chongzhen, are about to resign, and the other six high-ranking officials are not much better.

Wang Yongguang, the secretary of the ministry, finally lost his sacred heart, and the impeachment of people gradually rose, and he had already revealed the meaning of the minister. Li Tengfang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has already written to the official and is going through the process of 'three on and three refusals'. Xiong Mingyu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has been allowed to leave his post in March next year, and will be replaced by Zhang Fengyi, a squire of the Ministry of War. Min Hongxue, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, who succeeded Cao Yubian, was also crumbling and could not last long.

The six departments and the Metropolitan Procuratorate are known as the 'Seven Qings', and it didn't take long for them to change blood again, and seven for four.

Jiang Zheng still didn't dare to be disobedient, not only found Zhou Zheng's goods, but also pasted 40,000 taels of silver upside down.

In mid-December, Zhou Fang's family also returned, and Zhou's mansion suddenly became more lively.

Zhou Zheng took the two little guys to build a snowman in the snow, and the two little guys were red and happy.

"Second uncle, here are the eyes!" Xiao Jingyu took Zhou Zheng's hand and said with a dissatisfied expression.

Zhou Zheng put a pair of eyes under his mouth and said, "People from the outer regions, the mouth is below." ”

Xiao Deyu stood with his sister and shouted: "Second uncle lied, I have seen Xiyi people in Yongping Mansion, they don't look like this......"

Zhou Zheng still had to put his eyes down, and said, "Some foreigners look like this, you haven't seen ......."

The two little guys suddenly didn't follow, one pressed Zhou Zheng's hands, and the other pressed his eyes back.

Zhou Zheng just didn't let him get together with the two little guys.

Zhou Fang came out of the backyard, looked at Zhou Zheng, and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't teach them badly, it's such a cold day, let's go into the house." ”

Zhou Qingli came out later, but she didn't say anything, and looked at her two grandsons with a smile on her face.

When the two little guys saw Zhou Qingli, they both rushed over and said, "Grandpa, the second uncle is deceiving......

Zhou Qingli picked up the two little guys left and right, and said with a smile: "Then let's not play with him, come, grandpa will read you a ......"

The two little guys suddenly had bitter faces, and Xiao Deyu said: "Grandpa, the snowman is not finished yet, and the second uncle said that today's matter is finished today, and it can't ......be delayed."

Xiao Jingyu hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, what the second uncle said is right......

Zhou Qingli couldn't help them, so she hugged them and entered the house.

Zhou Zheng watched, moved his two eyes down, and clapped his hands with a smile.

Zhou Fang looked at it, shook his head with some headaches, didn't bother to say, turned around and went into the house.

Zhou Zheng wiped his hands, went back to the house to wash up, and turned around and went out.

Wei Xizhuang returned to Beijing.

The two sat down in the teahouse in Wei Xizhuang, drinking tea, and talking about the things of the world.

Wei Xizhuang quit drinking, took the teacup, looked at the snow outside, and sighed: "It's only been four years, and the capital has changed a lot." ”

The big change that Wei Xizhuang said was not about architecture, but about the imperial court.

The Ming Dynasty has changed the situation in the Ming Dynasty, the first assistant has changed ten in just four years, and no one seems to remember the nine thousand years old who once dominated the world, and the Donglin people are now called 'Donglin sages' by many people, as if they have passed dozens of hundreds of years.

Zhou Zheng looked at his emotional expression and said with a smile: "I heard that you have taken several concubines in Jiangnan, why are you lonely when you go back to Beijing?" ”

Wei Xizhuang coughed embarrassedly, and the color of sadness and sadness suddenly disappeared, and he counterattacked: "I heard that you are also married, I have long said that you and Miss Shangguan are not clear......

"Hey, what do you mean by unclear? The man is unmarried and the woman is not married, why is it not clear......" Zhou Zheng decisively interrupted him.

Wei Xizhuang smiled and said, "You still say no, how about it, when will you get married?" ”

Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "Wait a little longer, I'm going to Liaodong next year, by the way, you can lend me Menghezhou." ”

Wei Xizhuang already knew that Zhou Zheng was going to Liaodong, so he was silent for a moment and said, "Lao Meng is also wronged by following me, you can take it away." But Liaodong is too dangerous, don't talk about you, even the superintendent has few good deaths, but don't die in the hands of Jianyu, in the hands of the imperial court. ”

Zhou Zheng glanced at him angrily and said, "I'm going to die, I'll take you with me." ”

"Phew!"

Wei Xizhuang said angrily: "I don't want to die, you don't know how much joy there is in the Huahua world in Jiangnan, I haven't enjoyed it enough, how can I die!" ”

Zhou Zheng laughed and said: "I'm going to Liaodong, my father is also going to resign, you be careful, those people can't say that they will turn against the water." ”

A sneer flashed in Wei Xizhuang's eyes, and he said: "Their small movements have never stopped, you wait, I'll find a chance to kill a few more of them, and see if they dare to mess with me!" ”

Zhou Zheng didn't mention this when he saw that Wei Xizhuang had a number in his heart, and said: "The Zhou Chamber of Commerce is going to move to Tianjin, and Tianjin Wei is now in my hands, so you can stay there and watch them do things." ”

Wei Xizhuang seemed to be fascinated by the prosperity of Jiangnan, and was a little reluctant, hesitated, and said, "Okay, I'll go over in the second half of next year." ”

Zhou Zheng looked at Wei Xizhuang, thought for a while, and said, "Do you want to go to sea to play?" ”

Wei Xizhuang was stunned and said, "Go to sea?" ”

Zhou Zheng gestured and said: "Dozens of boats, equipped with cannons and hundreds of soldiers, come and go between our dynasty, Korea, and the Japanese country, and suppress bandits by the way." ”

Wei Xizhuang listened thoughtfully, stared at Zhou Zhengdao: "What are you going to do?" ”

Zhou Zheng looked as usual and said, "Don't you know about me and the Xiyi people?" North Korea and the Japanese are also planning several routes, but there are too many pirates and they need to be escorted. ”

Where would Wei Xizhuang believe it, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, I'll take a look in the second half of the year." ”

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Ships, troops, weapons, charts, relevant intelligence, etc., I have asked Tianjin Wei to prepare, you can go directly in the second half of next year." ”

Wei Xizhuang knew that Zhou Zheng would never be untargeted, so he didn't bother to ask, and said, "Okay, when the time comes, I will also go to the sea to be majestic!" ”

"Tell me about our business in Jiangnan." Zhou Zheng diverted the topic.

Zhou Zheng's business in Jiangnan, most of which tied up salt merchants, had the purpose of gradually devouring. But salt merchants are not stupid, and they must have the means to deal with it. Although he knew some, Zhou Zheng also wanted to know more details from Wei Xizhuang's mouth.

Wei Xizhuang said it succinctly, all of which were bad words for the salt merchants.

Zhou Zheng was refining the useful and thinking about some countermeasures.

Maybe it was because of Zhou Zheng's successive blows, even if they knew that Zhou Zheng was going to Liaodong and Zhou Qingli Zhishi, these people didn't make any noise, at least there was no big movement.

Zhou Zheng wanted to take the opportunity to beat again, but now he couldn't find a reason.

Separated from Wei Xizhuang, Zhou Zheng went to the military department again, since he was going to Liaodong, he had to be good.
