Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu, the two ministers, collapsed to the ground, their faces like ashes.

They didn't expect it to be this ending.

Therefore, the two are now very puzzled why the ending is like this.

Didn't Your Majesty already tolerate Xichang and not support Xilin Academy's behavior in Jiangnan?

After all, even Uncle Guo was imprisoned because of this.

Father-in-law Wei was 9,000 years old, which greatly overshadowed Uncle Zhang Guo and became the new first favorite of the Son of Heaven.

This undoubtedly means that His Majesty is dissatisfied with Uncle Zhang Guo.

But how can Xilin Academy and Xichang still turn the tables because the Japanese shogunate took the initiative to rebel against the leader of the Japanese thieves and the Donglin Confucian?

Even Li Fan, the godgrandson of Father-in-law Wei, bet on the wrong treasure because of this.

This obviously shows that Gonggong Wei was also tricked by His Majesty?

How so!

What the hell is in your Majesty's mind?!

If you weren't dissatisfied with Uncle Zhang Guo and the Xilin Academy and Xichang behind Uncle Zhang Guo, why did you put Uncle Zhang Guo in prison and crown Wei Zhongxian as 9,000 years old?!

Could it be that Your Majesty is deliberately setting up a trap to trap yourself and these people, so that you can catch them all?

It's scary to think about!

Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu both glanced at Tianqi tremblingly for a while.

The emperor in front of him, who likes carpentry, is so powerful that his people can't imagine it after all.

"The surname is Yang! You Donglin people, you have the courage to collude with foreign Yi to murder Xilin Shizi, why don't you have the courage to really be martyred, you have to make everyone have to be in a different place now! ”

Therefore, when Shi Fenglai was dragged down, he couldn't help but scold Yang Chengjun, and scolded Chen Zizhuang: "The surname Chen, how much benefit did Xichang give you, you actually spoke for them, and also spoke for those chaotic parties and people, and helped them to harm us people together!" You're a doctor in vain! ”

Yang Chengjun and Chen Zizhuang ignored it.

Yang Chengjun frankly admitted his sins in front of the apocalypse, naturally because he cherished his life, hoping that he could make the apocalypse lenient with him.

And Chen Zizhuang only said silently in his heart: "I did this for justice and for the common people, not because Xichang bought me, and I couldn't have betrayed myself because Uncle Guo's Industrial Department gave me the 20,000 taels of silver!" All of this is for the sake of justice! ”

Thinking about it like this, Chen Zizhuang felt a lot more at ease.

Zhang Ruitu didn't shout, he now knows that his shouting is useless, because the fact is obvious, from beginning to end, his courtiers have been played by Tianqi and Uncle Zhang Guo, and unless he is really willing to be a fish to be slaughtered, otherwise, it is possible to be played by him after all.

Hu Maowen, Wang Qingye and other civil officials who were really born in the Jiangnan Shi clan were still a little unwilling, and the Xilin people who were unwilling to mobilize the people to serve in Jiangnan were not characterized as a chaotic party, and they were not able to let the imperial court send a large army to suppress it.

Therefore, Hu Maowen still shouted urgently before he died: "Your Majesty! Even if the ministers are guilty, if the imperial court really does not suppress the Xilin rebellion, then the Jiangnan scholars will be separated from the imperial court! Your Majesty, please think twice! ”

Wang Qingye even directly threatened: "Your Majesty really wants to make Jiangnan more chaotic, and lose Jiangnan from now on?!" ”

"Your Majesty! In the opinion of the ministers, the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. Therefore, Jiangnan is not the Jiangnan of the Jiangnan gentry, but the Jiangnan of His Majesty! If because His Majesty does not obey the will of the Jiangnan gentry, and the Jiangnan gentry do not recognize His Majesty as the king, then the Jiangnan gentry is no different from a traitor! Punish it! ”

Chen Zizhuang, as the mouthpiece of the law-changing faction, continued to talk eloquently at this time.

Tianqi said very approvingly: "What Qing said is very true, the decree is sent to the governor of Zhejiang, once there are private soldiers brave, private firearms and ignore the law of the imperial court, they should be eliminated as traitors!" ”

"Retreat!"

After the Apocalypse announced its retreat from the dynasty, Shi Fenglai, Zhang Ruitu, Hu Maowen, Wang Qingye, Li Fan, etc., as well as the Japanese criminals, were all pressed to the ground, and then as the knife fell, these people were all beheaded.

Almost half of the officials of the Jiangnan Shi clan in the court have disappeared.

Li Guopu was secretly glad that he didn't stand up in time, and he ended up in a different place.

The main reason is that Li Guopu didn't expect that Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu, who are usually more shrewd than himself, would be so eager to come out and criticize Xilin Academy in the court today!

So much so that before he could speak, one by one he attacked Xilin Academy with a lot of words, so that he didn't have time to speak until the end.

Li Guopu also learned later that Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu first learned that Wei Zhongxian had been named nine thousand years old, and even secretly threw himself under Wei Zhongxian's door, preparing to be Wei Zhongxian's lackey, and then he was in a hurry to fall into the well for Uncle Zhang Guo, so he acted as a pioneer and directly attacked Xilin Academy.

And because he was beaten by Uncle Guo's elephant wat and recuperated at home, he didn't know about it, and it happened that Shi Fenglai and Zhang Ruitu deceived themselves again, so that he didn't have time to make a clear statement to join Wei Zhongxian's disciples, and he didn't rush out to bite Uncle Zhang's Xilin Academy, so he finally escaped.

Li Guopu learned about it through Ye Chengxue, who was introduced to him by someone, and said to Ye Chengxue: "I see, it seems that the old man is still a blessing in disguise, but fortunately, Uncle Zhang Guo slapped the old man." ”

Ye Chengxue instigated: "Even so, Elder Ge is willing to suffer this evil breath? Looking at this dynasty, how can any relatives be so domineering! ”

Li Guopu didn't know Ye Chengxue's true identity, so he only thought that Ye Chengxue hated Zhang Gui because of his position, so he said: "You young people, you are too angry!" Some things must be endured, and if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan! This time, Hu Maowen and they are examples, don't listen to the wind is the rain, you have to be cautious as an official. ”

"If you continue to be cautious, the Ming Dynasty will be completely finished!"

Ye Chengxue snorted.

Li Guopu was not angry because of Ye Chengxue's wild words, but felt that he was a very bloody young man, so he persuaded him earnestly: "You have to remember that in this world, the so-called national society is not important, what matters is power!" You can't do anything without power. The reason why his Uncle Zhang Guo can get to this point today is also because he has the power! ”

Ye Chengxue glanced at Li Guopu: "Really?" ”

"How could the old man lie to you, you are the offspring that the old man has always valued!"

Li Guopu said and said: "We have to wait, wait for the opportunity, and wait for him for ten or twenty years, sooner or later, this world will one day, there will still be a world of powerful people, and the common people will still be for cattle and horses, and will not be transferred by the will of the Son of Heaven." ”

Ye Chengxue's expression became solemn.

And Li Guopu said at this time: "But the old man is old, and he may not be able to wait for that day." ”

As he spoke, Li Guopu took out a secret letter from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Chengxue: "The person on this letter told the old man that they were going to do a big thing. You should first observe what is going on, and look for an opportunity to inform Your Majesty. You will use this letter as a petition to make friends with the Son of Heaven, and strive to make Your Majesty reuse you. In this way, you will have a chance to take revenge in the future. ”

Ye Chengxue bowed down after hearing this: "Xie Ge Lao!" ”

"What's the big deal?"

After Zhang Gui learned the news brought by Ye Chengxue through Zhou Neng, he also asked.

After Zhou Neng listened to Zhang Gui's question here, he said: "Ye Chengxue said, but the letter didn't say it. ”

At this time, a family Ding walked in: "A letter appeared outside, the letter said that if you want to find the country, go to a place in Jiaohuang Village outside the city!" ”

After Zhou Neng heard this, he hurriedly looked at Zhang Gui: "So, the old marquis was kidnapped?" ”

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

At this time, the voice of an inner eunuch suddenly came from outside.

Before Zhang Gui could order someone to open the middle gate, the apocalypse had already called from the corner gate: "I already know, Wei Zhongxian also found such a letter in Xiyuan!" I don't know who dared to kidnap my Yue Weng. ”

Zhang Gui said: "It seems that it is necessary for the minister to personally lead the troops to go." ”

Tianqi nodded and said, "Let Tian Ergeng take Jinyiwei with you, and listen to your moderation!" ”

So, Zhang Gui then took his family and Tian Ergeng and other Jinyi guards out of the city and came to a place called Huangcun.

fo

At this time, it was getting late, and when Zhang Gui and others arrived, they saw that at the entrance of Huangcun Village, there was already a person similar to Zhang Guoji, and at the same time, there were seven or eight people standing around Zhang Guoji with knives, and one of them was a big man riding a horse with a stomach and standing at the entrance of the village and shouting: "Uncle Zhang Guo!" Why bring so many people, we just want to talk to you. ”

Zhang Gui said: "Benhou brought these people to get you!" ”

As he spoke, Zhang Gui waved his hand: "Take people!" ”

So, Zhou Neng took Zhang Gui's family to get people first, while Tian Ergeng led the Jinyi guards to surround them from both wings.

The big man was shocked: "The surname is Zhang, Ling Zun's life, don't you want it?!" ”
