This plan failed, Wu Zhen had no good way for a while, and when he returned to the temporary government office of the governor of Zhejiang, he received a report from Sooli, and the military report sent back from Jiangxi had arrived at the yamen of the governor of Nanzhili. Hearing that the moment he had been waiting for for a long time had finally come, he sent the soap li, who had returned with him, and sent a letter to the mansion of the backbone officials who had expelled Li Xin, so that the plan could be launched as promised.

After some anxious distribution, Wu Zhen brought his own clothes and bags, changed into neat and neat brand new official clothes, and prepared to go to the political hall. The soap li, who reported that the military report had arrived in Nanjing, had been following behind Wu Zhen, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped, but he didn't know how to speak.

Wu Zhen is a person, he knows in his eyes that this is to be rewarded, at this moment he is in a good mood, so he threw a silver ingot weighing ten taels in front of the soap, and said with a little impatience: "Reward you, Zhang Ge Lao still doesn't know the news at this moment, you go and let me know." ”

Yangzhou Mansion is lost, and now Wu Zhen has no duty to send, but Zhang Fangyan's housekeeper role is like a fish in water, but this housekeeper is different from the inch length, the ordinary housekeeper is only in charge of private affairs, but he is both public and private, and he is running around the Nanjing magnates for a while, and he is also uncomfortable. Its posture of responding to a hundred calls is much happier than that of the prefect, and even a book can be ignored.

He glanced at it again, slowly picked up the soap of the silver ingot, and felt a little unhappy in his heart. But he seldom scolded the scary, so he ignored the somewhat difficult soap and went out. When he came to the governor's yamen, the sedan chair man had already prepared the sedan chair, just waiting for the mansion to take a seat.

The eight-carried sedan chair flickered and quickly left the alley where the governor's temporary yamen was located, that is, behind the front and back feet, and a soap officer rushed back in frustration, and ran into the rewarding soap officer head-on.

"Where is Wu Fuzun?"

"I just left in a sedan chair, and I went to the political hall at that time! It's right behind you, and if you take a few steps in the morning, you might be able to see you again! ”

The soap slapped his thigh, "Alas! What a strange thing! I went to see Jiang Hanlin yesterday and was still alive, how can I say that I fell ill today? ”

Jiang Hanlin refers to Jiang Yueguang, the director of the Hanlin Academy, the soap is subordinate to Wu Zhen's gift Jiang Mansion's attitude is much colder than before, and it took a long time before he came out and replied lazily, the old man is not happy, and he can't see guests today.

According to the understanding of the soap li, if you have reached the point where you can't see the guest, you are afraid that you will still be sick. The two soaps chattered for a while, and then dispersed again, each busy. Wu Zhen rushed to the political hall and greeted people politely, but he always felt that the smile on the other party's face was a little perfunctory and stiff, but he didn't have time to think about it in his eagerness, and almost trotted to the political hall. saw that several Shangshu had already gathered in the hall, including Zheng Sanjun and Gao Hongtu, who had fallen ill one after another.

Wu Zhen sneered in his heart, secretly scolded the two old foxes, and wanted to come to get a piece of the pie when he saw that the overall situation had been decided, but these two were very prestigious, and it was impossible to exclude them. But then his gaze swept to Xiong Mingyu, who was sitting firmly on the chair, and his brows furrowed, why did the surname Xiong come too? Does this guy also know that the general trend has gone?

However, Xiong Mingyu is different from Zheng Sanjun and Gao Hongtu, Xiong Mingyu has been discredited in Nanjing, and his descendant officials, starting from the squire Zhen Shu, have all been imprisoned for corruption of public funds, how can he stay out of the matter as a court official? It is inevitable that it will be difficult to escape the blame.

Wu Zhen decided to embarrass Xiong Ming.

"Xiong Shangshu doesn't want to talk to your new master, what are you doing in the political hall? Also looked at the military report from Jiangxi? ”

Unexpectedly, Xiong Mingyu not only didn't get angry, but didn't even look at him, but looked down at the official document in his hand. At this time, Zheng Sanjun, the head of Nanjing's household department, coughed.

"The political hall is discussing important military matters, if the Wu Governor's Mansion is not urgent, please come back later!"

The words were dry and cold, which made Wu Zhen gasp, which had never happened before. It was only at this moment that he clearly felt the strange atmosphere in the political affairs hall, and everyone wanted to stare at him like a monkey playing with him.

This made Wu Zhen confused, how did the military report from Jiangxi come back, and the old foxes in the political hall had a more ambiguous attitude? However, he has not forgotten the purpose of today's coming, and said solemnly:

"On behalf of the officials and people of Nanjing, Xia Guan respectfully petitions to expel Li Xin, this son controls the defenders of Nanjing, and does not save the Duke of Wei in Taiping Mansion, and Jiangxi has suffered a new defeat......

"Wait, wait! Who sued you for the fiasco in Jiangxi? ”

The question was asked by Gao Hongtu, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department. Wu Zhen was very strange, no one in Nanjing knew about this matter, no one knew about it, this, why did this have such a question? He has always believed in the news of Li Xin's three-guard army defeat in Jiujiang Mansion in Jiangxi, who is the Duke of Wei, who is also defeated again and again in Taiping Mansion, and Li Xin can turn the sky upside down?

"This, this matter is well known in Nanjing! What's more, not to mention the newly sent back military newspaper from Jiangxi! ”

"It's the military newspaper sent back by Jiangxi! Contrary to what you say, look for yourself! ”

Gao Hongtu's voice was cold, and he threw an official document in front of Wu Zhen. Wu Zhen was horrified, and then realized that the development of things seemed to exceed his expectations. He picked up the official letter with trembling hands, this is the official document submitted by the Jiujiang prefect, what he said is the Jiujiang catastrophe, and the 200,000 rebels of the Huai King are scattered!

Every word fell into Wu Zhen's eyes, making him like falling into an ice cave, how is this possible? No, didn't you say defeated?

"Xiong asked Governor Wu about something, what is the crime of slandering courtiers?"

"This, this ......"

Xiong Mingyu's words were like a poisonous arrow piercing his heart, which made Wu Zhen immediately sober up, and after figuring out the situation, what he felt immediately was deep despair. Slandering ministers will be dismissed from office, and if there are serious examples of exile and emigration, although it will not lead to death, it is better to live than to die. Reason made him recognize the truth, but emotionally he could not accept the cruel truth in any way.

In a hurry, Wu Zhen couldn't figure out what went wrong, but he suddenly decided to make a last ditch effort, although this decision seemed a little stupid and inconceivable to several old ministers in the political affairs hall.

"It's fake! It was forged by Li Xin, and you are still aware of it, don't fall for the trick of the surname Li! ”

Before he finished saying this, Xiong Mingyu's mocking eyes had already told him that this struggle was useless.

"Come on, come on! Governor Wu was unwell and couldn't think clearly, so help him go back to rest! ”

Immediately, a guard came into the political hall and dragged Wu Zhen out.

Wu Zhen was still struggling to himself: "Let go of me, I have no problem thinking, let go of me!" You wall-to-wall grass that has fallen into the well! ”

"Drag it out, drag it out, shut his mouth!"

Zheng Sanjun was a little angry and scolded loudly, Zhenhou faked? What kind of joke? Only now did he know why, under Wu Zhen's aggressive offensive, the Marquis of Zhenzhen did not react at all. It turned out that people had long expected that there would be today, and Wu Zhen's energetic toss was just to see the trick of the clown. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a fine layer of cold sweat on his forehead, but fortunately, he saw the opportunity quickly and didn't mix it with any joint names made by this guy.

Zheng Sanjun peeked at Xiong Mingyu who was the old god on the side, and couldn't help but praise this public for his unique vision, he could afford to put it down, and hugged the thigh of the town captive marquis tightly.

Under the struggle, Wu Zhen's brand-new official robe was torn out, his official hat fell to the ground, and a strand of hair was scattered on his forehead.

Several officials who happened to pass by outside the political hall looked at each other with a glance.

"Hey, take a look, is that Wu Zhen who has been in the limelight these days?"

"That's right, it's him!"

One of them sighed with embarrassment.

"Looking at his madness yesterday, how could he have imagined that there would be a wolf today?"

"Humph! Jumping up and down, for the official to ignore the original, for the whole person, I expected that this liao would have today's humiliation! ”

As Wu Zhen's noise became louder and louder, there were more and more low-level officials who gathered near the political hall to watch the excitement, some gloating, some preoccupied, and some clapping their hands, all kinds of things.

Soon, the Jiujiang Mansion of the Three Guards won a complete victory, and the news of the capture of the thief spread throughout the Nanjing officialdom. At this point, everyone knows that Yangzhou Wu Zhen, who is running hard in the name of Zhang Fangyan, the governor of Zhejiang, is completely finished this time. This person was already responsible for losing his land, and he didn't know how to be a low-key person without being held accountable, but now he stepped on the boat and overturned the boat, not only did he recover, but also affected Zhang Gelao, who was sick in bed, which was really harmful.

"At the beginning, I couldn't get used to Wu Zhen's high-spirited virtue, but now he is really happy and sad, and he deserves it!"

"Who's to say it isn't! I heard that he dared to scold even a book of books, but that Xiong Mingyu didn't have a word to make this guy run outside the political hall! ”

"That's Xiong Shangshu knew that this liao should end up today, but he was arrogant for a few days, look at it, what's going on now? Xiong Shangshu is still sitting in the political hall, but this liao is for the guards to fork out! It's really disgraceful, Sven is swept away! If it is next, there will be no shame in Jiangnan officialdom in this life! ”

But I heard someone say sadly: "Mixed officialdom? Isn't it cheap, Wu Zhen is now losing his teacher and land in Yangzhou, and he is provoking ministers in Nanjing and slandering arbitrarily. Regardless of these, there is also connivance with soap to rob the people's property and rob the army's food and salary, which is not a major crime of killing the head and stealing the family? ”
