"Lu Fang, have you ever heard such a sentence, Gentleman's Ze, the fifth generation?"

As soon as Jiajing's words fell, Lu Fang understood what the emperor wanted to express, and said secretly: "It seems that Your Majesty wants to take this opportunity to take those families out for surgery!" ”

Lu Fang thought so, the expression on his face became more and more respectful, and immediately, he saw him come back to his senses and admonish Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, the rest of the families don't have to care, the key is that this Confucian family, after all, is the descendant of Yan Shenggong, and has a pivotal position in the hearts of the world's scholars, if you act rashly, at that time, I am afraid that it will attract fierce opposition from the courtiers, after all, it ......"

Lu Fang didn't go any further, because he knew that Jiajing understood what he meant.

Jiajing seemed to see what Lu Fang was thinking, shook his head, and immediately explained.

"Lu Fang, I know what you mean, this matter must be cautious, I will not act easily until I am fully prepared!"

"But before that, you can still take advantage of the situation to cut off some of the wings of this Kong family."

Jiajing paused when he said this, and a touch of mockery couldn't help but appear on his face, and he continued to add.

"Heh, what a family tree of Tongtian, I am the only heaven of the Ming Dynasty!"

When Lu Fang heard Jiajing's words, he immediately spoke up and said, "Your Majesty Shengming, you are the only heaven of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

After this, I saw that after Lu Fang finished thinking about the language in his mind, he immediately stepped forward and asked Jiajing.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, what are you going to do with this matter next?"

Jiajing seemed to have expected Lu Fang to ask this question, and after glancing at Lu Fang, he immediately spoke unhurriedly.

"I plan to let Hai Rui continue to investigate this clue, and no matter who is involved, he will be killed together!"

When Jiajing said this, as if he suddenly remembered something, after looking Lu Fang up and down, he said excitedly.

"By the way, Lu Fang, I remember, aren't you still worried about what to write about the second issue of the newspaper, might as well write about this matter?"

After Jiajing's reminder, Lu Fang also reacted quickly, and after hesitating for a long time, he cautiously confirmed to Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean is to let the next newspaper issued by the imperial court ...... to the Kong family"

Hearing this, Jiajing nodded, and then commanded.

"Well, that's right, that's what I mean, Lu Fang, you don't have to worry, even if you act boldly, in the final analysis, they are just a group of insects who rely on the glory of their ancestors, ride on the heads of the people, and do their power!"

After Jiajing said this, he reacted in hindsight and continued to add.

"No, they are not as good as insects, whether it is for the Jiangshan Sheji, or the people of Dawn, they have never made any contributions, the only thing they are good at is nothing more than surrendering and standing in line!"

"Now, they actually dare to collude with the White Lotus Sect without knowing whether they are alive or dead, heh, they are really impatient!"

Lu Fang deeply agreed with Jiajing's words, because even though he racked his brains and searched for countless characters in his mind, he did not see the shadow of the above seven families.

Just as Lu Fang was still thinking hard about this, Jiajing's ancient sound sounded in Lu Fang's ears again.

"By the way, Lu Fang, when the time comes, another team of Jinyi guards will be sent over to assist Hai Rui in investigating this case, understand?"

When Lu Fang heard this, his expression immediately turned grim and he responded respectfully.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After this, I saw Jiajing withdraw his gaze from Lu Fang's body and commanded instead.

"Let's study ink for me, I will write a reply to Hai Rui!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

When Lu Fang heard this, he immediately stepped forward and studied ink for Jiajing.

After Lu Fang finished studying the ink, Jiajing spread out the pen and paper and began to write a reply.

"I already know what Aiqing said in the letter, no matter who is involved behind it, I will investigate it to the end, and I am your most solid backing!"

After Jiajing finished writing this sentence, he thought for a moment before continuing to write.

"In addition, I also sent an additional team of Jinyi guards to Shandong to assist you in investigating the case, and ......"

When the last word fell, Jiajing breathed a sigh of relief, and then carefully checked it from beginning to end, and only after confirming that it was correct, did he put the brush in his hand back to its original position.

After the ink on the letter paper dried, Jiajing put it in the envelope, and immediately called Lu Fang, handed the envelope to him, and gave instructions.

"Lu Fang, this letter will be brought over by the Jinyi Guard who will be sent to Shandong at that time!"

When Lu Fang heard this, his expression immediately turned grim, and he said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After this, Lu Fang did not stay in the Qianqing Palace for too long, but turned around and left.

……

The capital, Yuwang's Mansion.

On the same day, after the next duty, Xu Jie summoned Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng to Yuwang's Mansion to discuss the next countermeasures.

In the study, Yuwang Zhu Zaikun was the first to speak, breaking the calm, only to see him turn his gaze to Xu Jie, his face full of worry.

"By the way, Elder Xu Ge, since the last incident, have those officials restrained a little?"

Hearing this, Xu Jie got up from the seat, arched his hand to Zhu Zaikun, and said respectfully.

"Thanks to His Highness's concern, those officials have completely died down, and they have not submitted the impeachment note to the Inspectorate again!"

"Not only that, but the cabinet also disposed of most of the officials who were impeached according to the list provided by Zhao Zhenji, the superintendent of the imperial history!"

When Zhu Zaikun heard Xu Jie's name mention Zhao Zhenji, he couldn't help but be interested, only to see that he suppressed all the chaotic thoughts in his heart, and asked Xu Jie tentatively.

"Elder Xu Ge, this Zhao Zhenji is in an important position, and he has dealt with us so many times, you say, is it possible to pull him to our side?"

As soon as Zhu Zaikun's words fell, Xu Jie responded without thinking: "Your Highness, if you change to someone else, there is still a slight possibility, but this Zhao Zhenji is absolutely impossible!" ”

Zhu Zaikun was quite puzzled by Xu Jie's answer, and couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, so he immediately asked.

"Elder Xu Ge, what do you mean by this, do you mean that this Zhao Zhenji is very difficult to entangle?"

Gao Gong on the side sighed helplessly when he heard this, and then explained.

"Alas, Your Highness, do you know, this Zhao Zhenji is in the court, but he has the title of "non-stick pan", and he is extremely good at protecting himself, how could he take such a big risk and join our side? ”

When Gao Gong's words fell, Zhang Juzheng on the side also followed closely with Ying Hedao.

"Your Highness, the lower officials have dealt with this Zhao Zhenji, this person is extremely smart, and has strong observation skills, and he is also a good hand at handling things, he can be called one of the few capable officials in the Ming Dynasty!"

"But this person cherishes his feathers too much, it is said that last time, he saw that the situation was not right, and decisively reported illness at home, and only after the situation became clear, did he return to the Inspectorate!"

After listening to everyone's evaluation of Zhao Zhenji, the light in Zhu Zaikun's eyes also dimmed, and he gave up the idea of recruiting Zhao Zhenji.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was a little dull, I saw Xu Jie stand up and change the topic: "By the way, in another month or two, the mulberry seedlings over there in Zhejiang will officially mature, and then the imperial court will also buy a large amount of raw silk from those mulberry farmers." ”

Xu Jie paused for a moment when he said this, and after looking around, he continued.

"What do you think about that?"

As soon as Xu Jie's words came out, the room suddenly fell silent.

Although Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng on the side knew what Xu Jie wanted to express, at this moment, they had no intention of opening their mouths, but just remained silent.

I don't know how long time has passed, but in the end, Zhu Zaikun stood up, turned his gaze to Xu Jie, and said hesitantly.

"What does Elder Xu mean, we can do something out of it?" (End of chapter)
