Chu Nan played a little tricky, and his mood was very comfortable, but when he returned to his residence, he couldn't help but think of Wang Buregret. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

If the king is still there, and sees that he comes back so late, I am afraid that he will have to make fun of himself again, and he will probably tell him the interesting things he encountered today.

Chu Nan sighed, and returned to his residence without seeing Yang Lin's figure, but unexpectedly saw Zhang Ziliang.

Zhang Ziliang stood up with humility, thinking that he had heard some news, Chu Nan didn't care, chuckled and motioned for Zhang Ziliang to sit down, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, Steward Zhang has waited for a long time, right?"

Zhang Ziliang smiled and took the tea handed over by Chu Nan, and held it in his hand regardless of whether it was herbal tea or not, although he was tired from sitting in this room and waiting, he still smiled: "Where, I was busy to death all day long, and I just took advantage of this reason to be lazy here in Lord Chu." ”

Chu Nan smiled: "So, Steward Zhang still thanks me?"

Although they are all polite words, they have to be said, otherwise they will cut straight to the point, and I am afraid that both of them will be uncomfortable.

Zhang Ziliang carefully took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to Chu Nan, and said softly: "Lord Chu, this is what Zhang Gongzi asked me to give you, saying that this is what you asked for last time in Lingyin Temple." ”

Chu Nan took it with a smile, looked at Zhang Ziliang with a cautious face, and asked with a smile while opening the letter: "Steward Zhang has been in the Zhang family for a long time, why did he give up such a big future, but instead worked with Zhang Mingjing to split the Zhang family?"

Zhang Ziliang laughed dryly twice and said: "At first, the villain didn't think that there would be this day, but later Zhang Gongzi's words persuaded me, and the villain made up his mind to change the court." ”

Chu Nan sighed, didn't care at all about the humility and flattery in Zhang Ziliang's words, and said casually: "What did Zhang Mingjing say?"

Zhang Ziliang said softly: "Zhang Gongzi said that now that Daliang is becoming more and more prosperous, and the Daliang royal family is becoming more and more popular with the people, a dull old-fashioned gate valve like the Zhang family will be purged by the royal family sooner or later, and only a loose alliance with a limited degree of obedience to the royal family is the existence that the royal family can tolerate." ”

Chu Nan looked at Zhang Ziliang in surprise, nodded and smiled: "Very forward-looking, Steward Zhang followed a good master." ”

Zhang Ziliang said meaningfully: "The villain also heard that Chu Gongzi did not like Chu Shangshu because he said similar things when he was a child, so he has ............ over the years."

Chu Nan interrupted Zhang Ziliang's words, shook his head and said lightly: "I don't know where you heard it, and I don't care about this." Go back and tell Zhang Mingjing that if he follows this path, as long as he doesn't touch the bottom line of the royal family, he will achieve a career. Do what you want. ”

Zhang Ziliang heard clearly the reason for Zhang Mingjing's sudden change in surname from Su Tu, and heard from Chu Youcheng about Chu Nan's amazing deeds when he was a child, and wanted to lower his posture and take Chu Nan's line, but unfortunately it seems that Chu Nan is not very interested in subduing himself as a foreign aid, although he is a little annoyed in his heart, but he still knows how to say goodbye and leave.

Chu Nan gently pinched the letter and whispered to himself: "Zhang Mingjing, are you testing my courage and forcing me to fight a decisive battle with the Zhang family?"

................................................................................................ Although it is said that it is a decisive battle between Chu Nan and the Zhang family, most of it is Chu Nan's self-pity and self-pity, lamenting that the strength is weak, if it shows that the fire is fighting and the existence of the Zhang family is in a decisive battle, the Chu family is qualified, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate with the support of the royal family is of course more qualified.

Wang Defu couldn't help but read the letter carefully, frowned, and said, "Aren't you worried that it was fake news sent by Zhang Mingjing, and you dug a pit for the Metropolitan Procuratorate to jump?"

Chu Nan had a strange feeling in his heart, all along, Zhang Mingjing had been competing with himself openly and secretly, bent on performing better than himself, such a proud person, he would not deceive himself, just like he had never thought of beating Zhang Mingjing into the dust, maybe it was pride, maybe it was conceit, or maybe it was sympathy?

Chu Nan shook his head, retracted his thoughts, and said: "I don't think it should be fake, we can send someone to confirm the news on this letter, besides, he is an ambitious and ambitious person, and he should understand the consequences of offending the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Zhang family at the same time." ”

Wang Defu still shook his head and frowned: "If this is true, the first person to be arrested is Zhang Pu, didn't he push his father into the fire pit?"

Chu Nan said lightly: "It doesn't matter if you are unkind or unfilial, whether you are mean or unkind, Zhang Mingjing is our best partner right now, as long as Lord Wang understands this." ”

Wang Defu looked at Chu Nan quietly and said with a smile: "You are a little similar to Zhang Mingjing, no wonder he can spend so much effort to help you?"

Chu Nan shook his head and said, "He's not helping me, he's just borrowing my hand to help himself." I've always thought so, so I never felt like I owed him anything, just a deal. ”

Wang Defu returned the thin letter that might involve the lives of countless people to Chu Nan, and said with a smile: "You still hold this thing, put it on your body, and I will probably not be able to sleep." ”

Chu Nan didn't shirk, stretched out his hand to take it, and said: "I think this is the best and last chance, as long as it is done, it will be an iron case, and no one who comes will be able to overturn the case." If I miss this opportunity, I'm afraid God will laugh at me for being cowardly. ”

Wang Defu nodded, but the worry between his eyebrows and eyes was unabated, and he said softly: "You and I are still a little insufficient, after all, Lord Liang is the chief official, so he has the right to arbitrary, and now Lord Liang is desperately dragging it, and even inviting Jian Rong to take charge of the recruitment has come out, I am afraid that let Lord Liang nod, the difficulty is not ordinary." Speaking of the stubborn and cautious Liang Rang, Wang Defu was silent, and Chu Nan was thoughtful.

...................................................................................................... Liang Rang is not having a good time, these people are very haggard, the Zhang family is about to move, Chu Nan and Wang Defu under him seem to be planning something, fortunately, Jiang Yue moved to Jian Rong to sit in town, and news came from the capital again, saying that the Northern Expedition is about to start a decisive battle, and it is good to delay it for a while, as for the future, it is better to wait for His Majesty's orders.

Liang Rang looked at Chu Nan and Wang Defu, who came together, and laughed softly: "The two of you came together, I don't know if there is any major event to report?"

Wang Defu looked at Liang Rang's expression and said softly: "We are here to ask Lord Liang how to deal with He Bisheng's case, and it is not a way to drag it out like this." ”

Liang Rang frowned and said softly: "The case of He Bisheng is very involved, we should be cautious, and the evidence we have at hand is insufficient, let's check it again." ”

Chu Nan said with a smile: "Lord Liang, I think we have enough evidence at hand, if we still want it, we have to go to Hebisheng to find it." As Wei Si said, Hebisheng has private dealings with the Hu people in Mobei and the foreigners in the northwest, and as long as the Metropolitan Procuratorate can investigate, it can find more powerful evidence. ”

Liang Rang's face was a little unsightly, could this be regarded as a partnership between Chu Nan and Wang Defu to force the palace? He said in a light tone: "I'm afraid you don't know that now in the capital, many officials headed by the Duke of Yasukuni are very dissatisfied with us, saying that we are not doing things well, the emperor is not strict, disturbing the place, and framing the merchants who have made great contributions to Daliang for no reason. ”

Chu Nan was not surprised, and said with a smile: "Lord Liang also said that the Metropolitan Procuratorate is a thankless errand at both ends, and Lord Liang should see it, and it is precisely because of this that we have touched some people, and it shows that we are in the right direction." ”

Liang Rang looked at Chu Nan in surprise, shook his head and smiled: "I'm afraid that Commander Chu doesn't know, this time there are several adults in the capital who are writing with the Duke of Yasukuni, including the prefect of Hangzhou and the prefect of Suzhou, and even I heard that Chu Shangshu is also interested in writing." ”

Chu Nan's expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "No matter who goes to the book, before His Majesty recalls us, I will continue to investigate." Xiaguan once again asked the adults to think about the method I mentioned last time, since some people have already jumped out, shouldn't we also fight back?"

Liang Rang looked at Wang Defu who was leisurely drinking tea, and understood that this was a tacit way to support Chu Nan, and sighed: "This method is too radical, I won't agree to it." ”

Chu Nan smiled, Liang Rang's reaction was also expected, now that Jian Rong was in charge outside, and Chu Nan was the pioneer inside, Liang Rang's pressure was shared by most of the time, and he was able to go back to Beijing, so he naturally didn't want to cause such a big trouble.

Wang Defu was finally reluctant to put down the teacup and said softly: "Lord Liang is waiting for the news of the victory of the Northern Expedition? At that time, it was a celebration for the whole country, I am afraid that His Majesty will recall us." ”

Liang Rang nodded calmly and said: "Hebisheng is here, and the Zhang family can't run, anyway, they can check at any time, why bother to make Your Majesty unhappy and block Your Majesty." Now that Lord Jian is sitting in Hangzhou, I am afraid that it is also the idea of fighting, since the two of them understand, they should not do some thankless things. ”

Chu Nan hesitated, handed over the letter sent by Zhang Mingjing, and said softly: "But now there is an opportunity to turn this case into an iron case in one fell swoop, so that no one can find faults, just to see if Lord Liang has the courage." ”

Liang Rang looked at the few pages in his hand, his face was very bad, he stared at Chu Nan and asked, "Where did you get this news from?

Chu Nan didn't answer, and said quietly: "Don't you think this is an opportunity, Lord Liang? It's been a long time since the Metropolitan Procuratorate has completed a decent big case, and if the case of He Bisheng is completed in the hands of Lord Liang, the prestige of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Lord will probably be raised a lot." ”

Liang Rang's expression was entangled, and he hesitated for a long time before returning the letter to Chu Nan, and said lightly: "What if it is done, and what if it overthrows Hebisheng?" Your Majesty has planned for so many years to complete the Northern Expedition, but you want to kill people when the whole country is celebrating, do you think Your Majesty will be happy?"

Chu Nan looked at Liang Rang without hesitation, and said, "My lord doesn't want to cause this trouble, and I don't want to make Your Majesty unhappy." Liang Rang didn't dare to do it, why don't you let me do it. ”

Liang Rang looked surprised, looked at Chu Nan with a determined face and Wang Defu with a calm expression, and said with difficulty: "You have to think about it, you are gambling on your own future, you can't help but bet on the power of the Zhang family, and you are also betting on Your Majesty's tolerance." ”

Wang Defu and Chu Nan looked at each other and smiled, and each shook his head.

Liang Rang suddenly felt that he was a little old, waved his hand a little dejectedly, called the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate outside the door, and said: "Tell me to go down, this official is suddenly seriously ill and can't get out of bed, and all the affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate will be handed over to the king in the future............ No, it will be handed over to the management of the Chu commander. ”

Chu Nan looked at Liang Rang's relaxed back that was full of depression but couldn't be concealed, and said to Wang Defu with a smile: "Has Lord Wang decided to gamble with me?"

Wang Defu took off the black gauze hat on his head, looked at it in his hand, and sighed: "I have worn this hat for more than ten years, and I only found out that it is so ugly today." ”

Chu Nan laughed, his eyes were already looking at the north, and he said faintly: "The Northern Expedition is about to start a decisive battle, and the south is also going to start to see the bayonet red, I hope that these two decisive battles can be won." ”
