The emperor's side is relaxed, but Zhang Ru's side is not relaxed, there are not a few officials who speak and have something to do with Li Zi Province, and it is not possible to complete a family raid in a day or two.

What's more, some people are also related to Xungui, and rashly taking down these people is tantamount to invisibly offending a group of Xungui masters.

You must know that Zhang Ru has just joined the ranks of nobles, even if there are Zhu Yong, the Duke of Baoguo, and Zhu Youqi, the king of Tai'an County, to help him say good things, and offend those Hou Grandpas or something, it is also a great deal.

Zhu Youzhu values Zhang Ru correctly, but he also knows who is supporting the Ming Dynasty, if it weren't for these noble lords fighting with blood, relying on those powerless civil officials, the Ming Dynasty would have died early.

When it really came to the time of making a fuss, even if Zhu Youzhu wanted to protect Zhang Ru again, he had to teach him some lessons to shut up those nobles.

On the second day after the decree was issued, Jinyiwei arrested five officials, three members of the fourth rank of Jingzhongzheng, and one member of the third grade.

For this point, there were no less than five nobles who wrote a note that night asking to see Zhang Ru.

If someone is arrested and wants to be released, it will definitely not work, how to deal with it, Zhang Ru did not have a clear answer, and the brocade-clothed guards of Zhao Prison had to treat these officials as uncles first.

It was late at night, and Zhang Ru, who was so busy, didn't have time to lie down and rest, so he heard Menzi say that Zhu Hui, the son of Baoguo Gong, asked to see him.

If it was someone else, Zhang Ru wouldn't see it if he didn't want to, but this Zhu Hui, he couldn't see it. Not to mention that his father is the general who controls the twelve regiments and battalions in the capital, let's just say that the relationship between the two is quite good, and he can't close the door.

After a few words of greeting, Zhu Hui cut the topic to the point: "Jinyiwei's actions have been quite big recently, and it's not easy for you, a busy person, to find time to see me!" ”

Zhang Ru smiled: "How do I feel that my brother has a thorn in his words? Is it that those brothers under his command have not been able to make a sense of proportion recently, and they have moved our own people? ”

Taking the initiative to put yourself and Yigan on the same position is not only as simple as getting closer. He was tempting, testing the three words of Dingbianhou, and in the hearts of the nobles who could pile up more military merits than those scholars of the Hanlin Academy, how many catties and taels were in their hearts.

Zhu Hui said intentionally or unintentionally: "You said that you are your own person, brother, I won't talk nonsense." The directors of the Criminal Department and the Officials Department who were arrested yesterday are all my people. ”

Zhang Ru was puzzled: "The elder brother means that the younger brother can save it, but it is not so easy to release people." Your Majesty, I'll have to give an explanation. ”

Zhu Hui was a little displeased: "A director of the Criminal Department and the director of the Ministry of Officials are all inconsequential little people, whether to let go or not is a matter of you, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, is it this little thing, my brother has come to the door in person, and you refuse to give face?" ”

Zhang Ru smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother misunderstood, it's not that I don't want to give face, it's really that I don't have the ability to give face!" Your Majesty said that these two people must be taken. ”

Zhu Hui said meaningfully: "Wen Xuan, Your Majesty can ascend the throne, what is going on, the person who knows best is you." Don't tell my brother that Your Majesty doesn't know this, and don't say that you don't have that ability.

No one in the Manchu Dynasty knows that you Zhang Wenxuan is a popular person in front of His Majesty, and even the old eunuch Qin Ji, who has served His Majesty for more than ten years, was scolded by His Majesty for a few words.

Not to mention that you took people out of the capital without His Majesty's approval, such a big event, if you were replaced by Commander Yuan, I am afraid that you would have taken off your black gauze hat a long time ago.

Let go or not, you can just say it in front of Your Majesty, it is necessary to play with my brother with these vain things? ”

Zhang Ru said: "If the elder brother thinks that Zhang is embarrassing the elder brother, then now the elder brother can go, Zhang Ru is great and does not do this fixed border marquis." Brotherhood has always been the most important thing for Zhang Wenxuan, but pity me Zhang Wenxuan regards you Zhu Hui as a friend, but you Zhu Hui treats Zhang as a villain. It's late at night, and the little country is invited back. ”

Zhu Hui's words made Zhang Ru angry, he really didn't have any ill will towards Zhu Hui, but these two offenders were indeed dealt with by Zhu Youzhang's golden mouth.

This reaction made Zhu Hui a little at a loss, he originally just wanted to suppress Zhang Ru in words, maybe Zhang Ru would intercede with the emperor under pressure, but he didn't expect it to be self-defeating, not only did it not press others, but it made people have signs of turning their faces.

Zhu Hui hurriedly said: "Wenxuan, don't be angry, it's not okay if the old brother is wrong!" No way, these two people are of great use to my brother! ”

Zhang Ru's face was still not very good, but he didn't continue to drive people away, and said coldly: "The people under my brother, I will take care of what I can, I don't need to be instructed to do this, Zhang will do it."

However, the head of the Criminal Department relied on himself to be in charge of the prison of the Criminal Department, and colluded with Li Zi Province to kill the officials of the imperial court, and there were three Zhengsi senior officials who were killed by him alone.

Forget it, the prisoners in the women's prison, all those who have some posture will become his prison. I haven't seen him do anything good on weekdays, but the bad things basically make him absolutely desperate.

For the sake of the yellow and white things, the head of the ministry forcibly promoted several officials who did not have any political achievements, and finally caused the local people to complain about it. There was almost a civil uprising in Tianjin, and dozens of weavers in Hangzhou were hanged at the yamen.

This kind of person, is the brother too panicked? ”

If you really want to release people, these are not reasons, the key is that Zhang Ru really doesn't want to release these people.

This time, I took the opportunity to purge many people, and every crime of these people was well documented, and basically constituted a capital crime. The reason why there is no opinion on disposal so far is because Zhang Ru has not closed the net.

He didn't dare to guarantee that there would be fewer corrupt officials in Beijing after this time, at least the corrupt officials he knew, and he would not let go of any of them.

The two people who committed the crime were Zhu Hui's people, he had known for a long time, and he also knew that Zhu Hui would come to the door to intercede, so he deliberately mentioned it when chatting with Zhu Youzhang.

Zhu Hui was a little embarrassed, he knew what his own people were, but he didn't bother to care so much, as long as his subordinates did the things they explained. As for the virtues of his subordinates, he really didn't care.

Originally, he was looking for Zhang Ruxing to ask for guilt, but after such a beating from the other party, he felt that he was at a loss.

Zhu Hui rubbed his hands and apologized: "It's the elder brother who blames you, this matter is not authentic." Do you think you can help say a word in front of Your Majesty, then the head of the criminal department can be left alone, and the head of the ministry can stay for a while? ”

Zhang Ru didn't agree immediately: "I can help you try to ask His Majesty what he means, but I can't guarantee that I can keep him." Looking for people in the future, find some people with flexible brains, Your Majesty is different from the previous emperor, and Your Majesty knows many things very well in your heart. ”

Having said that, Zhu Hui couldn't embarrass Zhang Ru anymore, and said: "Then please ask Wenxuan for this matter, after the matter is completed, my brother will be grateful." ”

Zhang Ru said lightly: "You and my brother, why bother to say these polite words, to be honest, I don't have any confidence in convincing Your Majesty, so I can only do my best." ”

Zhu Hui said: "Do your best, do your best, if things don't work out, my brother doesn't blame you." Okay, it's late at night, you rest, and my brother goes first. ”

Zhang Ru shouted to the brocade-clothed guards who were on duty in the middle of the night: "Come here, send Xiao Guogong for me." ”

Immediately, there was a brocade guard waiting at the door, and then respectfully sent Zhu Hui out.

As soon as Zhu Hui left, Zhang Ru's face suddenly turned cold, he understood that this was a test of Xungui Group for himself, but this temptation made him very unhappy.

Over there, Zhu Hui returned to the Baoguo Mansion after leaving the Dingbian Hou Mansion, and immediately told Zhu Yong the content of the conversation with Zhang Ru. He said that the two offenders were his own people, so he definitely represented not only himself, but also the entire Baoguo Mansion.

Zhu Yong's brows were sometimes stretched and sometimes furrowed, and after listening to his son's retelling, he nodded: "Go tell the big guy tomorrow, restrain your subordinates during this time, don't make too much of it." Our Majesty is not just talking about it. Find a way to give Qin Ji some gifts to see if he is willing to help talk. ”

Zhu Hui said with a bitter face: "Dad, that Qin Ji is a soft and hard person who doesn't eat it, and the child has given gifts several times, but he has not confiscated it once." ”

Zhu Yong said with a smile: "He will accept it this time, you just need to tell him that Zhang Ru kid is soft and hard, and ask him to help talk in front of His Majesty, and he will definitely accept it." ”

This is clearly cheating Zhang Ru, Zhu Hui hesitated: "That's it, Wenxuan's side."

Zhu Yong waved his hand: "Don't worry, Zhang Wenxuan is a smart person, what he wants to deal with is not Xungui, what he wants to deal with is just corrupt officials." Let Qin Ji sing against him, and strive to let our people replace those who have committed crimes, which is only good for us, not bad. ”

Zhu Hui nodded and said, "Then Dad, you rest early, and the child retires." ”

Zhu Yong snorted: "Go, prepare enough gifts, as long as Qin Ji accepts the gift this time, next time, he will not be allowed to refuse." ”

Zhu Hui turned to leave, closed the door with his hand, he didn't go to rest, but immediately asked his subordinates to prepare gifts. The Zhu family has a lot of industries in the capital, and it is no problem to prepare some gifts.

He was so busy that he finally got things done, dragging his tired body back to his room to lie down, he didn't notice that the lights in his father's room were still on.

The old man Zhu Yong was lying on the Taishi chair as if he was asleep, with a pair of old eyes squinting, looking at the beating lights in a daze.

It wasn't until the early morning sun completely dispelled the haze of the night that the old man with a heavy army suddenly opened his eyes, and a pair of cloudy eyes bloomed: "Zhang boy, the old man gave you a chance, but it depends on what kind of Ming you can give me, a lawless young man." ”

Qin Ji doesn't like Zhang Ru, and the old prince Zhu Yong doesn't mind helping Zhang Ru.
