Chapter 339: An Unexpected Twist
His Majesty the Emperor on the throne was depressed for a moment, and put this matter aside for the time being, after all, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty almost never won the war with the civil officials, and now that so many ministers are on Zhu Changluo's side, it is not good for him to continue to hold on.

And more importantly, Zhu Yijun was faintly uneasy in his heart, and it could be seen from Zhu Changluo's reaction that he must have gained a lot of important things from interrogating Zhang Cha today, otherwise, he would not have caused such a big incident.
sighed in his heart, at that time, time was really too short, if he could give Luo Sigong some more time, he would definitely not judge only one Pang Baolai!
"Your Majesty, this is Zhang Cha's testimony, please take a look at it!"
Zhen Zhenji took out a neat stack of paper from his sleeve and handed it to the waiter who stepped forward.
Zhu Yijun took it, carefully looked from the beginning to the end, and the more he looked at it, the more gloomy his face became.
"There are such bold people! Under the brilliant daylight, he dared to enter the palace to assassinate, it was simply a king's law! ”
After a while, the emperor slapped the testimony on the imperial case and said angrily.
Zhen Zhenji also stepped forward and said.
"Your Majesty, it is precisely because of the importance of this case that the old minister and His Royal Highness King Shou discussed before deciding to immediately enter the palace to arrest the criminal Liu Cheng, in order to prevent the news from leaking out of his life! Please forgive your majesty! ”
"Well, I don't blame Aiqing for doing the right thing!"
Zhu Yijun's face softened slightly, and he said softly.
However, Zhu Changluo had a strange look on his face.
You must know that Liu Cheng and Pang Baoke are both chamberlains of Changchun Palace, and this evidence is almost equivalent to proving that the mastermind behind this time is the Zheng family, in this case, with Zhu Yijun's preference for the Zheng family, it shouldn't be such an attitude.
If something goes wrong, it will be a demon!
Zhu Changluo's heart was full of alarms, and his brain spun quickly, quietly watching the development of the scene.
"However, this case involves the inner palace and the outer court, and it is related to the majesty of the royal family, so it is really necessary to deal with it carefully, and now so many things have been tried in the first instance, it can be seen that this matter is not simple, so what I mean, in order to prevent leakage, the progress of this case is better to keep it secret for the time being, I will send Jinyi Wei to assist a few Aiqing, and wait for the people behind the scenes to be found out, and then how about announcing it?"
He coughed twice, but the emperor said in a consultative tone.
The ministers below were suddenly a little stunned, it stands to reason that it is difficult to keep such a big and important case that the court is concerned about, but now it is different, that Zhang Cha has not been tried before, and his testimony is now full and only more than ten people in the palace know, and they are all big boss-level figures in the court, but it is not difficult to keep it secret.
What's more, after thinking about it, what the emperor said is not unreasonable, that Pang Bao has been killed and killed, and after the news of Bao Buqi spreads, what will the people behind the scenes do, but if it is kept secret......
Everyone immediately turned their attention to Zhu Changluo, this time Zhu Changluo made such a big fuss, it was obviously a trend to make the case bigger, but the emperor now wants to cover the lid, this highness must not be happy.
Now the palace is full of old treacherous and cunning people, and his heart is naturally the same as Spiegel, although this case is unclear now, but Liu Cheng and Pang Bao are both from Changchun Palace, with this, Zheng Guifei can't get out of it, and His Majesty's love for Zheng Guifei over the years is also something that everyone can see.
So these ministers are waiting for Zhu Changluo to come forward to refute, anyway, the royal father and son, Zhu Changluo is a victim, the emperor will not punish him for this, and the others ...... casually confronting the emperor, that's a fool's job!
At the point where they are, they don't need to rely on this kind of behavior to fight for fame!
So in the expectant eyes of everyone, Zhu Changluo took a step forward, arched his hand, and said respectfully.
"What the father said is very true, and the sons also think that this matter should not be publicized for the time being, since the people behind the scenes can kill Pang Bao unconsciously, it can be seen that his power must be not small, if the case is rashly leaked, it will only interrupt the clues, so the sons also think that the news of this case should be temporarily blocked, and after the case is clear, the courtiers will be announced!"
After saying this, not only the ministers in the palace, but even Zhu Yijun on the throne was stunned.
He naturally didn't think that these people wouldn't be able to see what he meant, and he didn't expect Zhu Changluo to agree to temporarily suppress the case, after all, judging from his flamboyant actions today, it was obvious that he wanted to make a big deal out of it.
But he has no way, this case is now very unfavorable to the Zheng family, if it is introduced into the court, it will definitely set off a storm, he doesn't care, but he is worried that the Zheng family will not be able to stop such pressure, so he wants to delay the case for the time being, anyway, it won't be long before the court will be sealed.
When the spring begins after the year, it is the time when the Ming Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom go to war, so that they can use this to divert the attention of the courtiers.
It's just that he also knows that it is difficult to do this, and it is not easy to convince the ministers in the palace, not to mention the outlier of Zhu Changluo, Zhu Yijun is even thinking that if it really doesn't work, he can only use his emperor's authority to forcibly order them to keep it secret temporarily, who would have expected that this Zhu Changluo is actually on his side, could it be that this kid has a brain cramp?
"Father? Gentlemen? Could it be that what King Ben said was wrong? ”
Seeing that everyone was stunned, Zhu Changluo frowned and asked cautiously.
"This ...... His Royal Highness King Shou ......"
Zhen Zhenji was about to speak, but Zhu Yijun suddenly reacted and said.
"What the emperor said is very agreeable, do you have any different opinions?"
No matter whether Zhu Changluo is pumping his brain or playing other crooked ideas, as long as he can temporarily suppress the case, he will be able to think of other methods......
A cadre of ministers in the palace, you look at me, I look at you, but in the end, he arched his hand helplessly and said.
"What Your Majesty said is very true, and the ministers obey the order!"
The father and son have agreed, what are they still jumping on? Anyway, it's just a temporary secret, such a big case is destined to be uncontrollable, and when it is opened, in fact, there is not much difference......
A moment later, the people in the Qianqing Palace receded like a tide, but Zhu Yijun's face suddenly turned cold, and he roared in a low voice.
"Zhang Cheng, get out of here!"
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"
Zhang Cheng lowered his head, knelt on the ground with a weak heart, and stammered and shouted.
"What's going on with this Liu Cheng? Didn't you say that Pang Bao had confessed that he was the only one who did this? ”
Zhu Yijun's face was gloomy and he asked angrily.
Since he knew that the case involved Pang Bao that day, Zhu Yijun immediately controlled him secretly, but for the sake of secrecy, he didn't even tell Zheng, but just asked Zhang Cheng to interrogate Pang Bao secretly.
