Zhu Yong's face was solemn and said: "Wenxuan, that bit of money is nothing, Zhu Hui has dealings with you, but he simply thinks that you can be a person." I always feel that something is wrong with this attack, so you better be careful! ”

Zhang Ru turned his head to look at Zhu Yong: "What did Guogong hear?" ”

Zhu Yong stopped, turned around and said seriously: "I didn't hear the wind, but I have my means." The civil officials headed by Li Min seem to be being punched behind them. And these people have already contacted Mu Bin of Jinyiwei, and it seems that they want to suppress you forever this time. ”

Zhang Ru's heart sank, his face was as usual, and he arched his hand to Zhu Yong very respectfully: "Thank you Guogong for reminding me." ”

Zhu Yong smiled: "Be careful yourself, don't thank me." In terms of being brave on the battlefield, my son is not as good as me, but in terms of knowing people, I am not as good as my son.

Zhu Hui made such a friend to you when he was thirty years old, you are very important to the Baoguo Mansion, and it is also very important to the future Baoguo Prince.

"If you have time, find Zhu Hui to drink more wine."

As he spoke, he patted Zhang Ru on the shoulder a few times.

After speaking, he left, leaving Zhang Ru standing outside the palace gate a little confused.

He thought that this impeachment was the same as previous impeachments, but that the civil servants whose interests had been violated wanted to teach him a lesson. Hearing Zhu Yong say this, he realized that this impeachment was indeed a bit unusual.

In the past, impeachment was generally carried out by the imperial historians, and it was rare for people from the six ministries to participate in it. After all, the officials of the six ministries are not as noble as the imperial historians, and many things are not what they want to do.

The status of the Ming nobles is transcendent, offending one is equivalent to offending a nest, and offending the nobles means that the black gauze hat on their heads will be taken off sooner or later.

However, this time the impeachment was led by the civil officials headed by Li Min, and only half of those imperial historians participated in the impeachment. There may be the credit of Yang Tinghe, and at a deeper level, there may be the meaning of the hand behind Li Min.

Some of the admonitions of the imperial historians and civil officials could not be listened to, after all, they had the right to write to the emperor, and the emperor also had the right to refuse. Their task is to keep an eye on the emperor's country, and if they go away, nothing will happen.

However, those civil officials who have actual positions are different, especially high-ranking officials at the ministerial level like Li Min, who need a long buffer period to choose one of the people below and successfully take over the affairs in their hands.

The officials of the DPRK and China have always been a radish and a pit, and they have never raised idlers, this rule has been set since the time of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Li Min left, and Zhu Youzhu could not find a successor in a short time.

Li Min is only a household secretary, and his ability and level are all in the middle and lower among the six books in the Chenghua period, and in the Hongzhi period, it is even more at the bottom. is such a person, after Zhang Ru made the White Lotus Sect a big man, he did not hesitate to lead hundreds of officials to attack him, how deep is the intention behind this, it is worth pondering.

In particular, several cabinet elders seem to be reluctant to get involved.

Qiu Jun, who is old and serious, doesn't say anything for the time being, but Xie Qian, who has a violent temperament, also chose to keep silent, which is a little strange. On the contrary, Liu Ji, who likes to be a good old man and a thin mud, stood up and said a few decent words, this strange scene is intriguing.

Thinking about it, Zhang Ru involuntarily walked towards the location of the Fusi Division in Beizhen, since someone came out to woo Mu Bin, maybe he could ask something from him.

Zhang Ru was not sure if he could ask for the news from Mu Bin's mouth.

The current Mu Bin is no longer the stunned young man with lofty ideals many years ago.

Years of high-level life in Beizhen Fusi have made many changes in the upright character of this Jinyi Guard. At least now, he will not only do his own thing, regardless of the court fight.

The historical evaluation of Mu Bin is good, which is also based on the good relationship between this Jinyi Guard commander and the civil officials of the current dynasty.

Of course, it's not that Mu Bin is bad, it's just that compared to the previous Mu Bin, the current Mu Bin is no longer in such a high position in Zhang Ru's heart.

Entering Beizhen Fusi unimpeded, he walked straight into Mu Bin's room, knocked on the table symbolically, and then sat down very familiarly, Zhang Ru asked straight to the point: "Someone has been looking for you recently?" ”

Mu Bin looked slightly stunned: "Xia Guan doesn't know what Hou Ye is talking about." ”

"Someone wants me to die, you are the knife."

"Hou Ye King Kong is not bad, and ordinary knives, I'm afraid I can't hurt Hou Ye in the slightest. Xia Guan was born in Beizhen Fu Division, and he used to be a cadre under Hou Ye, who would find Xia Guan to make a knife without knowing whether he was alive or dead. ”

"Whether or not you can control a knife like yours depends on who wields it. At least for now, it seems that Li Min does not have the courage. ”

Mu Bin said with a smile: "Hou Ye said that he was joking, Mu Bin is His Majesty's knife, and the entire Jinyi Guard is His Majesty's knife, this is what Hou Ye once said to his subordinates." ”

Zhang Ru stood up and said, "Since you don't want to say it, there's no need to be so polite." ”

He was about to walk out of the door, and after some ideological struggle, Mu Bin spoke: "Master Hou stays." ”

Zhang Ru stopped and didn't look back: "What advice does the commander have?" ”

Mu Bin said in a deep voice: "The lower official can't help himself, Master Hou forgive me." The people of the cabinet can determine life and death with one word, and Mu Bin is soft-spoken. ”

Zhang Ru nodded: "Thank you." ”

Mu Bin stood up and said, "I didn't say anything, Master Hou just came here to catch up with the old days." ”

Zhang Ru turned around and said, "If you don't die this time, I will invite you to drink." ”

After saying that, he strode away from Beizhen Fusi.

Outside the door, they were not qualified to enter Mu Bin's room at all, and some of the Jinyi guards who couldn't even get close to Mu Bin's room looked at the room with inexplicable expressions. seems to be wondering what the former commander of the Jinyi Guard is here for.

In the crowd, a man with a full beard lowered his head, his eyes flickering.

After Zhang Ru walked for about two hours, taking advantage of his leisure, this man left Beizhen Fusi.

The Hou Mansion, which had lost many people, became much more deserted, and there were still a few old soldiers in brocade clothes who had been disabled for the imperial court.

Their straight chests looked so strong in the autumn wind, and the expression on their faces was so resolute.

Zhang Ru specially stopped at the door, laughed with a few former brothers, and then walked into the Hou Mansion with a little melancholy.

I don't know why, he has experienced a lot of ups and downs when he came to Daming, and he always feels uneasy this time. This intense uneasiness made him unable to give up.

This time, the people standing behind Li Min and the others seemed to be trying to knock him down at once, so that he would never have the power to turn over.

That night, Zhang Ru was urgently summoned to the palace.

There are only two people in the Dongnuan Pavilion, one is the sitting Zhu Youjiao, and the other is the standing Zhang Ru.

No one knows the conversation between the two, but according to the words of the little eunuch who served by the emperor's side later, it seems that the emperor was furious because of Zhang Ru's unscrupulous words in the court that day. And Zhang Ru was still indifferent, and in the end, both of them were furious, and the emperor actually smashed his beloved Kowloon Cup into powder.

The final conversation turned out that Zhang Ru, the Marquis of Dingbian, walked away, and the emperor kept smashing things in the Dongnuan Pavilion, and when the people in the palace cleaned up the Dongnuan Pavilion the next day, there was nothing complete in the Dongnuan Pavilion except for a table.

This gave the courtiers room for speculation, and at the same time gave Li Min and his party more opportunities to attack.

The strife in the court lasted until mid-December of the third year of Hongji, and the emperor seemed to be holding back his anger for a whole month.

There are already many versions in the mouths of officials of the DPRK and China.

Some people say that the emperor had a falling out with Zhang Ru, and this time Dingbian Hou will definitely be unlucky.

Some people also say that the relationship between the emperor and Zhang Ru is unbreakable, and there may be nothing wrong in the end.

Some people even say that Zhang Ru does have a heart of disobedience, and the reason why he broke with the emperor is that he thinks he already has the ability to fight against the imperial court.

These statements are just speculations by the officials below, and there has been no official statement.

Until this day, Emperor Zhu Youzhu actually made a big fuss in the court, and the first thing he did in the court was not to ask about the people's situation and national conditions, but to hold accountable why Zhang Ru, the marquis of the border, did not go to the court.

At this time, the hundred officials knew that the emperor might really have a falling out with the Dingbian Marquis.

It is said that the gentleman's heart is unpredictable, and yesterday he was as good as a person, but today he can be furious about a small thing that cannot be smaller.

The entire court was silent, and all the courtiers were silent.

Although the Ming Dynasty said that the emperor and the cabinet ruled the world together, if the emperor was really angry, those civil officials would not dare to stand up to the bull. After all, there are not so many officials like Yu Qian and Hai Rui in this world.

"Come, the proposed decree, Zhang Ru, the governor of the nine sides, has no father, and he has not been in court for several days, taking Zhang Ru the post of the governor of the nine sides, and introspecting in the Hou Mansion." After some roaring, Zhu Youzhu gave an order that made Qiu Jun feel extremely stupid.

Yang Tinghe was anxious, and was about to stand up to argue for Zhang Ru, but Qiu Jun's sharp eyes directly froze his steps.

Yang Tinghe still has a lot of respect for Qiu Jun, and in his heart, this wise old man is just like his teacher.

After saying this holy decree, Zhu Youzhu snorted coldly: "Qiu Jun and Xie Qian stay, and the others disperse." ”

The two elders of the pavilion who were already not small followed Qin Ji into the Dongnuan Pavilion step by step, and the emperor sitting on the chair had an angry look on his face, and before the two of them could speak, the emperor had already taken the lead in speaking: "This Zhang Wenxuan has no monarch father, do you think that the title on his body can be taken away." ”

Xie Qianshou, who was upright by nature, frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that it's inappropriate, if you don't commit the crime of murder and rebellion, I'm afraid that those nobles will make trouble." ”

Qiu Jun squinted his eyes slightly, and kept looking at Zhu Youzhang's face very rudely, Xie Qian spoke, but he didn't speak.

Zhu Youzhu was a little uncomfortable stared at by Qiu Jun, and looked away and asked, "Qiu Aiqing, what do you think?" ”
