received a more urgent twist, especially the one involving Nan Zhili, Zhou Yanru usually rushed to the ceremonial eunuch as soon as possible and found the eunuch Wang Chengen to discuss, but this time the situation was a little different, Zhou Yanru delayed for nearly a day, and only went to the ceremonial eunuch the next day.

With a smile on his face, Wang Chengen looked at the song and said it casually.

"Such an important twist and turn, the aspects involved are not small, our family remembers that the last time we discussed with Lord Zhou, it was to stabilize the situation in Huaibei, could it be that Lord Zhou thought of other possibilities."

Zhou Yanru's eyes narrowed slightly, he knew very well that Wang Chengen was a little suspicious, why didn't he come to discuss it at the first time.

The relationship between Zhou Yanru and the eunuch is average, if it weren't for the emperor's unusual request, he would not have such a close connection with Wang Chengen, the eunuch is a crippled person, and the physical disability will inevitably affect the psychological disability.

I remember that during the Apocalypse, the emperor trusted Wei Zhongxian abnormally, making the court complain, after the emperor took office, he carried out a vigorous rectification and completely exterminated Wei Zhongxian and the eunuchs, but unfortunately within a few years, the emperor began to trust the eunuchs and handed over a lot of things to the eunuchs to handle, on the contrary, the emperor did not trust the civil and military ministers in the court at all.

Now this is even more so, the emperor's high suspicion of Zheng Xunrui has reached the point of going mad, and from this and that, the emperor will not trust any civil and military ministers in the court.

This is definitely not a good thing, but this is also the emperor's reverse scale, no one dares to touch it, I am afraid that it will not be a matter of the court staff, but the sin of directly killing the head.

Wang Chengen's suspicion represents the emperor's suspicion. Zhou Yanru must not be underestimated.

Wang Gonggong said with a smile, he received a twist and turn yesterday, and the official couldn't sleep at night, and he was thinking hard about what good way to deal with it, if the situation developed like this. There will definitely be a big problem, and the situation in Huaibei will not be able to be cleaned up at that time, and Caoyun will be completely paralyzed, which will affect the overall situation of the imperial court. ”

Wang Chengen nodded slightly and did not speak.

"The countermeasures discussed by the prince and the official a few days ago should be based on stabilizing the situation in Huaibei, as long as the transportation of grain can be maintained, even if it is worth paying some price, Zhang Pu, Zhang Cai, Yang Yi, Wu Changshi and Gong Dingyu and others. The things he said in his recital are not too out of line, but it would be inappropriate to make such a fuss at a critical moment. ”

"Wang Gonggong also knows that this Zhang Pu and others will never be able to maintain Cao Yun, they have all supervised the imperial history, and they have the habit of commenting on the world subconsciously......"

"That's what Lord Zhou said. Our family also remembered that this Donglin Academy, the Fushe and the Ying Society were readers. Isn't it all lip service, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has repeatedly relied on them, but what is the ending, it is just a bunch of pedantic scholars who play tricks, but they still want to play some tricks. Bite off more than one can chew. ”

Wang Chengen's sudden insertion of these words made Zhou Yanru very surprised, he knew very well that Wang Chengen would not speak casually in front of him, since he talked about his impression of the Donglin Party. That is to represent the emperor's view of the Donglin Party, of course, there is Wang Chengen's schadenfreude, after all, at the beginning of the emperor's accession to the throne, almost all the eunuchs were deprived of their powers, and they trusted the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, especially the Donglin Party.

Wang Chengen's words are not simple, in fact, they are reminding Zhou Yanru that although he is dealing with Zheng Xunrui at present, he can't get too close to the Donglin Party, otherwise there will be problems.

Zhou Yanru felt a chill in his heart, what kind of methods did the emperor use, let the Donglin Party people deal with Zheng Xunrui, knowing that Zhang Pu and others were not enough to succeed and more than defeated, and asked them to go to Huai'an, and the basket that was poked out, wouldn't the cabinet help to sew it up, and when the time came, the emperor would clean up Zheng Xunrui and the Donglin Party together, and he could get the greatest benefits.

"What the prince said is, the official is worried about the situation in Huaibei, this Cao Yun can never be delayed, the edict of the household department will be sent to the Cao Yun Governor's Mansion soon, this year's four million stone of Cao grain, it must be guaranteed, seeing that the Cao Yun will start in March, I am afraid it will be difficult to recover, and the official is also in a hurry."

Wang Chengen nodded, but suddenly changed the topic.

"Lord Zhou, this Gan Xuekuo, Ma Shiying, Su Jiancheng, Wu Weiye, Gu Menglin and Chen Zilong and others have all resigned, is there a pry from Lord Zheng Xunrui."

Zhou Yanru didn't speak immediately, but looked at Wang Chengen.

"This official thought about this matter last night, to say that Gan Xuekuo handed in his resignation, but only made one thing clear, that is, what Zhang Pu and others did, Gan Xuekuo didn't know, since this is the case, then he is the governor of Caoyun, it is a little unworthy of the name, and his subordinates do not obey the arrangement, it is better to resign as the governor of Caoyun to save trouble."

"Lord Zhou's analysis is incisive, between the Donglin Party, it is really interesting, let the number one opponent Zheng Xunrui not deal with it, but there is such a big problem inside, we see that they are really not enough to succeed and more than to lose."

Wang Chengen blindly belittled the Donglin Party, and Zhou Yanru no longer felt strange.

"As for the resignation of Ma Shiying and others, the official also thinks it is understandable, Wang Gonggong thinks about it, Gan Xuekuo should know about such a big matter, and he should also stand up and speak, but even Gan Xuekuo has handed in his resignation, so what hope does Ma Shiying and others have, and they should do the same as the official."

Wang Chengen shook his head, indicating that he did not understand.

"This scholar's idea is really weird, since Zhang Pu and others are provocative, then they have to argue for themselves, this is always a joke, thinking it's a joke between children."

Seeing that Wang Chengen no longer pointed the finger at Zheng Xunrui, Zhou Yanru was also secretly relieved.

"Lord Zhou, if the resignation of these people is approved, what will happen, and if the resignation of these people is not allowed, what should be done."

Wang Chengen finally pointed to the most critical place, which is also the question that Zhou Yanru thinks about the most, he carefully read Zheng Xunrui's letter, and he is not particularly in favor of Zheng Xunrui's suggestion, of course, his previous ideas have also changed a lot, otherwise it is impossible to delay a day.

"The question raised by the prince is also something that the official has been thinking about hard."

"Gan Xuekuo and others all resigned, this ending the court can't bear, once Caoyun is delayed, it is not a matter that can be recovered in a short period of time, the court sent officials to Huaibei again, not to mention the unfamiliar situation, there may be new confrontations, Zhang Pu and others to Huaibei The time is too short, thinking about other things, they don't pay attention to Caoyun at all, the official can conclude that they don't know what to do, looking forward to letting them take charge of Caoyun's affairs, that is the court to take Caoyun's top priority, In the end, the imperial court could not bear the consequences. ”

"The official's opinion is to maintain the original pattern, but the cabinet needs to have a clear opinion, that is, to support Gan Xuekuo's affairs in charge of the Caoyun Governor's Office, so that Caoyun can be truly restored."

Wang Chengen listened very carefully, and after Zhou Yanru finished speaking, he groaned slightly.

"Lord Zhou's suggestion is good, but how can Zhang Pu and the others give up, and besides, Lord Zhou and our family know that the people behind Zhang Pu and them are ready to move."

Zhou Yanru made a thinking appearance, and his expression was also a little dangerous.

"The meaning of the prince and the prince, the official understands, but the official has no way to do these things, there is no clear evidence, the official is not easy to say."

Wang Chengen smiled and took out a stack of paperwork from his arms.

"We have evidence here, these are all letters sent to the capital by Zhang Pu and others."

Zhou Yanru's body trembled slightly, he couldn't imagine that all the letters written by Zhang Pu and others to the capital were all obtained by Wang Chengen, which shows that Wang Chengen is very uninterested in the Donglin Party, and it shows that the emperor is wary of the Donglin Party.

Wang Chengen's meaning was to let Zhou Yanru come forward and reprimand Qian Shisheng and Hou Sui and others in the cabinet.

But this kind of thing, Zhou Yanru will not do it, and he can't do it, so he Zhou Yanru will instantly become the enemy of the Donglin Party and be attacked countless times, don't think about living a peaceful life in the future, what's even worse is that these letters are secret, how did he Zhou Yanru know, it is nothing more than collusion with Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

Once the reputation of colluding with Jinyiwei and Dongchang goes out, then he Zhou Yanru will be completely finished in the court.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yanru opened his mouth with a straight face.

"The prince, the official is trusted by the emperor, and he does things conscientiously, even at the expense of the whole family, but there are some things that the prince understands, the official will not do, and it is impossible to do, the official is the first assistant of the cabinet, and some things have been done, once it is passed out, the official will not only be able to deal with the resignation, if the prince feels that the official is not loyal enough, he can say it directly, and the official will resign from the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, and let someone more capable do ......it."

When Zhou Yanru said these words, a smile appeared on Wang Chengen's face.

"Lord Zhou is too worried, our family took out these letters, just to let Lord Zhou know, there is no other meaning, our family's idea is the same as Lord Zhou, it is to restore the Cao Yun, to transport the Cao grain to the capital, as for other things, it is not impossible to let it go."

When he left the celebrant supervisor, Zhou Yanru's face was extremely serious, and he couldn't see a trace of a smile.

From the bottom of his heart, he still wants to do a good job as the head of the cabinet, at least so that the court can operate normally, and the battle to exterminate the rogue can go smoothly, but unfortunately he has some wishful thinking, the situation in the court is becoming more and more complicated, and it is no longer something that he, the head of the cabinet, can settle, in this case, it is better to find other ways out.

Zhou Yanru faintly regretted the suggestion he made. (To be continued......)
