Since the beginning of the Jiajing Dynasty, the civil power of the Ming Dynasty has been very strong, from Yang Tinghe at the beginning to Yan Song at the back, then Xu Jiegaogong, and then to the current Zhang Juzheng, the strength of civil officials is strong.

The days of these eunuchs in the East Factory and the West Factory are long gone, and since Wang Zhi in the Chenghua period, many people can't feel the horror of the eunuchs in that era.

In the fifth year of Wanli, it was originally an ordinary morning, but when the hundred officials sat down in the official office and were ready to drink a pot of tea and start work, countless figures rushed out of the East Factory and rushed to various yamen, shocking countless people!

They wear brown high-pointed hats, soap shirts, and white shoes, and they are the errand servants of Dongchang, commonly known as Dongchang Fanzi.

At this moment, people found out that there are so many fans in Dongchang?

Six Yamen, Yushitai, Dali Temple, each yamen everywhere have these Dongchang fanzi figures. Although their attitude is not domineering or arrogant, but obediently sticks to meet them, they still frighten people to jump.

Cabinet.

Li Sheng stood at the bottom of the steps respectfully, but his attitude was very resolute, and he said expressionlessly: "Two cabinet elders, our East Factory has the responsibilities of the East Factory, and Chen Lian, the cabinet secretary, colluded inside and outside to steal cabinet texts, leak news, and pass on intelligence. ”

"After the investigation of the East Factory, the evidence is conclusive, and our East Factory suspects that Chen Lian colluded with the Mongolian Tartars to deliver news to them." Speaking of this, Li Sheng clenched his fists and said loudly: "Please also ask the two adults to let Li Sheng come out and let him take him back to Dongchang." ”

Zhang Siwei and Lu Tiaoyang on the steps glanced at each other, and the stunned on their faces has not disappeared until now.

Dongchang actually let people come to the cabinet, how bold is this, Zhang Jing is crazy? However, both of them are also elite, and after a little thought, they understand that this is for Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the cabinet.

Obviously, there was a problem between Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Whale, and the two of them glanced at each other, and they instantly had a bottom in their hearts.

While hurriedly asking people to find Zhang Juzheng, the two of them stopped Li Sheng, and before Zhang Juzheng came, people must not let Li Sheng take him away. Although the two of them felt that what Li Sheng said was true, they couldn't let him take it away.

The fact that cabinet scribes deliver news inside and outside is nothing new, and as for what to communicate with the Mongolian Tatars, this is nonsense.

Although the two of them were standing here, they didn't have much confidence in their hearts, and they didn't know what was wrong. This time it is obviously a big event, and there is quite a posture of mountain rain coming and winding all over the building.

Zhang Juzheng was in the palace at this time, he was Zhu Yijun's teacher, and he entered the palace early in the morning to give Zhu Yijun a lesson.

Although there was a lot of joy outside, Zhang Ju was giving a lesson to the emperor, and ordinary people didn't dare to disturb it!

The cabinet was able to resist Li Sheng of the East Factory, but the other yamen did not dare to carry it, and the other yamen of the East Factory were not so polite, and many people were directly arrested in the East Factory, and the capital shook for a while.

Countless officials gathered in the cabinet, and they all came to Zhang Juzheng to call the shots.

At this time, whether it is against Zhang Juzheng or those who support Zhang Juzheng, they all want to see what Zhang Juzheng will do. When Zhang Juzheng returned to the cabinet, there was still a confrontation here.

On the way back, Zhang Juzheng heard the whole thing happen, and after listening, Zhang Juzheng's front sank like water.

There is only one thought in Zhang Juzheng's mind, is Zhang Whale crazy?

Zhang Juzheng can't even understand why Zhang Whale is doing this, he and Zhang Whale have not had any conflict recently, why do they put on an endless posture? Zhang Juzheng pondered as he walked.

Entering the cabinet, Zhang Juzheng looked at Li Sheng and said with a calm face: "Get out!" ”

It was very polite, but Li Sheng didn't dare to say anything, or even say a word, so he could only stand aside. The civil officials were stunned when they saw this scene, Zhang Juzheng's power was so much?

"Elder Zhang Ge, it doesn't look pleasing to the eye, let's clean them up for you, and now the cubs are getting better and worse!"

With a chuckle, the people of Dongchang were divided into two sides, and a middle-aged eunuch wearing a red python robe and holding a dusty hand walked out. looked at Zhang Juzheng with a smile: "Our family has seen Zhang Ge Lao, and we have seen all the ministers!" ”

Zhang Juzheng's eyes narrowed slightly, he didn't expect Zhang Whale to come in person, this is clearly going to fight with him.

Zhang Whale knew that he couldn't do it if he didn't work hard, the emperor was watching him from behind, if things didn't go well this time, then he would be completely finished. The emperor wants to promote himself, which may be impossible now, but if he changes himself, it is absolutely possible.

There is Zhang Hong by the Queen Mother's side, although she doesn't listen to the emperor for everything, but she has to listen to more than half of it, and there is also Zhang Cheng, if she is disobedient, she will be taken down at any time.

Zhang Whale knew what the emperor wanted him to do, so he went into battle shirtless, and the master let the dog bite people, if you didn't dare to go up, then you would be useless. No matter what you are facing, if the master tells you to rush up, then you have to rush up.

For this point, Zhang Whale saw it clearly and thought clearly, so he was unusually high-profile today.

"I don't know what Gonggong Zhang came to the cabinet to do?" Zhang Juzheng looked at Zhang Whale with a calm face and spoke.

Zhang Whale smiled slightly: "Why does Zhang Ge ask knowingly, our Dongchang came here to arrest people, but if we don't come, I'm afraid this person won't be able to catch back." It's not easy for us to do something in the East Factory, and we also ask Zhang Ge to be accommodating. ”

Although Zhang Whale's words were polite, there was no shortage of sarcasm in his words.

Zhang Juzheng's face was gloomy, and he wondered in his heart what Zhang Whale was going to do, between the lightning and flint, Zhang Juzheng thought of the warrior camp and the four guards, could it be that Zhang Whale did this for the warrior camp and the four guards?

But I didn't say I wouldn't agree to him!

Following this line of thought, Zhang Juzheng thought of Yu Dayou's matter, could it be that he asked people to investigate the matter of Yu Dayou and Zhang Whale, which made Zhang Whale blow up? But even if Zhang Whale and Yu Dayou have anything to do with each other, it won't be enough!

In Zhang Juzheng's view, whether Zhang Whale wants to use Yu Dayou, or Yu Dayou takes refuge in Zhang Whale, it is not a big deal.

For a while, Zhang Juzheng still didn't have a clue, even so, Zhang Juzheng couldn't let Zhang Whale take people away today, and said directly: "I will go to the palace to ask for the will of this matter, and Father-in-law Zhang, please go back!" ”

In front of so many civil officials, Zhang Juzheng naturally would not let Zhang Whale step on his face.

Zhang Whale smiled slightly, he didn't plan to go in and rob people, Zhang Ju is the emperor's teacher, the deep Empress Dowager Li is trustworthy, it is really out of control, and the last unlucky person must be himself. Besides, he didn't want to bring down Zhang Juzheng, he wanted to speak out.

Now that the purpose has been answered, Zhang Whale decided to accept it when he sees it: "Then listen to Zhang Ge Lao, but our family also reminds Zhang Ge Lao, don't let people run away, otherwise we won't be able to explain!" ”
