Chapter 526: The Predator Behind the Scenes

Hearing this, Zhang Ru immediately sat up straight: "You mean there is someone else?" ”

Qingcha Gongzi nodded and said, "Li Gongmian is just a household secretary, and the eldest princess standing behind me is not qualified to talk to me." Only the person behind him has the qualifications to come to me and threaten me with the eldest princess. ”

"I'm curious what kind of person has the guts to do that." Zhang Ru said with a smile.

Qingcha Gongzi is not a good bird, not to mention that he can mix the people under the command of the eldest princess Gulun at will, let's just say that the cronies cultivated by the eldest princess Gulun in the court are enough for him to resist a lot of pressure.

If Li Min, the head of the household, wants to grasp the tea boy, it is really difficult.

Qingcha Gongzi said: "It's Liu Ji." ”

"Liu Mian?" Zhang Ru stood up in shock: "Are you talking about the Liu Ji Liu Mian who disregards the identity of the pavilion elder and follows me every day and screams at the Hou Ye?" ”

Qingcha Gongzi was very satisfied with Zhang Ru's reaction, how can a person really be perfect, seeing him with a surprised expression today, he can give people a little impression of an ordinary man.

"I'm surprised! All of this is fueled by this person. Of course, there may be only one person who really wants you to step down, and that is Li Dongyang. "Qing Cha Gongzi threw another bombshell.

Zhang Ru was not too surprised this time, and said with a smile: "Master Li will not be used to what I do, which is what I expected." But Liu Mian, I really didn't expect him to be one of them. ”

This time it was the turn of the tea boy to be surprised: "You don't seem to be surprised that Li Dongyang will attack you in front of His Majesty." ”

Zhang Ru recalled the cabinet minister in his previous life who was spurned by his contemporaries, but respected by later generations.

Zhu Youzhang's son Zhu Houzhao is a playful emperor, building a leopard house, not going back to the palace to sleep, not talking, and favoring the Eight Tigers, which makes the courtiers even more frightened.

When Liu Jian and Xie Qian resigned one after another, only one person stayed, and this person was Li Dongyang.

He was burdened with all the infamy, and he was still struggling under Liu Jin's nose, but secretly united with Yang Tinghe and Yang Yiqing, the chief of the trilateral system, and finally succeeded in pulling Liu Jin off the horse.

This man is a wise and foolish man, he looks very obedient on the surface, but in fact, as long as he hates someone, he will hate it from the bottom of his bones. He was able to hold back and wait for the fatal blow at the critical moment.

Qingcha Gongzi took all this for granted, or when Zhu Youzhu lived in the East Palace, Li Dongyang showed dislike for Zhang Ru, but at that time, he just didn't like it, and it didn't develop into hostility.

With the passage of time, just when Zhu Youzhu ascended the throne, Li Dongyang, who was a waiter, had an accident in his family and went home to keep his filial piety. Next, the Ming Dynasty Hall completely became Zhang Ru's stage.

The cabinet scholars had the ability to restrain them, but they did not mean to restrain them, and the other courtiers did not dare to restrain them at all. So the general's right to speak reached its peak after Zhang Ru's second expedition to Datong, and at this time, Li Dongyang happened to come back.

Qingcha Gongzi was obviously not very satisfied with Zhang Ru's performance, and said with a frown: "You are not surprised that Li Dongyang was involved in this matter. ”

Zhang Ru said with a smile: "Since I have returned to Beijing, there are some things that can be hidden for a while, but I can't hide them for a lifetime." When I returned to Beijing, I thought about whether things would be exposed, and now that I think about it, sooner or later it will be exposed.

Since you have taken in my 3,000 soldiers with your kindness, I can tell you a secret. ”

Qing Cha asked, "What secret?" ”

Zhang Ru said: "In fact, many things cannot be seen on the surface, but on the real substance. You only saw Scholar Li attacking me Zhang Wenxuan, but you didn't see how much he did for Daming behind his back. You saw that Liu Ji and Liu Mian had received His Majesty's favor, but you didn't see the 300,000 imperial army outside Fuzhou. You saw that I, Zhang Wenxuan, couldn't shrink out of Fuzhou, but I didn't see the secret letter written by His Majesty over the years. ”

Qingcha Gongzi stood up and looked terrified: "Could it be that all this is the layout between you and Your Majesty?" ”

Zhang Ru nodded: "Yes, everything is a layout, but it is not a layout between me and Your Majesty, but a layout between me and Your Majesty and Master Li Dongyang Li."

There are not 100 but 80 Wenxuan ministers in the DPRK who don't like me, and there are many military generals who are angry that I have taken away their military merits. But these people don't take the lead when I'm in a high position, and hide behind my back to play tricks.

What I'm going to do, I guess you should understand by now.

To achieve a truly prosperous era of Hongzhi, it is not so simple. I can't do it alone, plus Your Majesty, plus Master Li, I still can't do it.

It is necessary for me to work hard to achieve the goal.

The Tatars of the north are eyeing each other, and although I have once let them leave the territory of the Ming Dynasty, I cannot promise to let them cower on the steppe forever.

So I think of a way once and for all to make these people completely cut off the idea of plundering the Ming Dynasty.

I don't like people pulling my legs behind my butt when I'm doing things, so I'm going to get rid of all these stumbling blocks first.

But when I'm in a high position, no one will stupidly hit me with a gun, they know how to forbear, they don't joke with their own lives.

So I asked Lord Li to cooperate, and asked His Majesty to issue a secret decree, which was nothing more than to catch and kill all these moths.

It's ridiculous that a lot of people don't know about our plans, including my brother who has been by my side for many years. ”

Qingcha Gongzi showed an angry look on his face, and then the anger on this face slowly disappeared, and there was awe in his eyes.

In the past, he really hated Zhang Ru, but after hearing Zhang Ru's words today, he suddenly had three points of respect for this former opponent.

Not everyone can do what Zhang Ru does, after all, he has heavy troops, if the emperor takes the opportunity to really want him to die, then he is cocooning himself.

Now it seems that the emperor has no intention of letting Zhang Wenxuan disappear.

After he was relieved, he took a long breath: "Your Highness is right, no matter what aspect I am, I am not as good as you. ”

Zhang Ru said lightly: "Don't be presumptuous, people have strengths and weaknesses, not everyone can be perfect." I can't do it, you can't do it, and to put it mildly, the saints can't do it today. ”

Qingcha Gongzi seemed to think of something, and asked, "Aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will take this opportunity to really make you doomed?" ”

Zhang Ru chuckled and didn't explain.

He didn't prepare?

No, he prepared!

The departure of Fan Tong and Wang Zhou, the transfer of Ma Xuan, the disappearance of Xie Lun, the disappearance of Ma Jinzhong, and the mystery of Xiao Anu are all his countermeasures.

It's just that, he can't tell the tea boy.
