Liu Benxi hated Zhou Zheng very much, thinking that Zhou Zheng was trying to bribe Tao Ran, so he deliberately reminded this sentence.
Tao Ran turned his head fiercely and looked at him coldly.
Liu Benxi was flustered by what he saw, and forced himself to calm down, saying, "Master Tao, what's the matter?"
The corner of Tao Ran's face twitched, with a murderous expression in his eyes. If it weren't for Liu Benxi's teasing, how could he provoke Zhou Zheng!
Tao Ran looked gloomy, turned to Zhou Zheng, and said in a hoarse voice: "What else do you know?"
Zhou Zheng said indifferently, "Isn't this enough to send you to death?"
Listening to Zhou Zheng's words, Liu Benxi gave a groan in his heart, with a bad premonition.
Tao Ran no longer had the calmness he had before, let alone the killing intent, and the corner of his face was agitated, saying: "Cui Chengli is the younger brother of the urging officer, you should know."
Zhou Zheng glanced at Liu Benxi and said, "I know, naturally, but if I impeach you, if the court takes you, can he protect you? Or, do you bite him out?"
The corner of Tao Ran's eyes jumped, his expression increasingly gloomy.
Cui Chengli is the younger brother of Cui Chengxiu, even if Tao Ran was sentenced to death, he would not be bitten out, otherwise his whole family would have to be buried!
Liu Benxi didn't know what was going on, looking at Tao Ran's expression, he stopped talking in panic.
Tao Ran seemed to have not seen him, his expression gloomy and changeable, staring at Zhou Zhengdao: "What do you want?"
Zhou Zhengyi pointed to Liu Benxi and said, "Send him to prison, don't let him come out again."
Liu Benxi's face changed drastically, and he looked at Tao Ran and said, "Master Tao, don't be scared by Zhou Zhengyun. We have urged the hall to be the backer, afraid of what he will do! As long as we take it back, it's not like we knead it, everything is okay. Settle it!"
Tao Ran didn't hear him at all, looked at Zhou Zheng and said solemnly: "Okay, take it away!"
As soon as Tao Ran's voice fell, the Xinghu Yamen rushed up and directly stopped Liu Benxi, who was about to drag him away.
Liu Benxi was terrified and said loudly: "Master Tao, you can't be scared by Zhou Zheng. He scares you. I've met the person who urges adults. You can't arrest me..."
Tao Ran turned a deaf ear to Zhou Zheng, and said, "What are the conditions?"
Zhou Zhengdao: "Hongqi from the Ministry of Households, Zhao Heqin from the Water Transport Department, and Qin Li from the Ministry of Industry, you will be arrested and detained by the Criminal Department for two nights and handed to me the day after tomorrow.
Tao Ran didn't know these three people, but Zhou Zheng asked him to catch him. Obviously, his grade would not be too high, and his eyes were so gloomy, he said, "Anything else?"
Zhou Zheng looked back at Zhou Ji and said, "Guys are frightened, you sell a ten thousand tael, so I can give them more money."
Twelve thousand!
He bought this doctor for only five thousand taels!
Tao Ran's eyes jumped, the corners of his face were green, his teeth were broken, and he said, "Is it cleared like this?"
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Well, I don't know about you, and I won't impeach you."
Tao Ran looked at Zhou Zheng, daring not to relax a little bit, and said, "Can I know where you know this?"
"You can't afford to offend people." Zhou Zhengdao.
Tao Ran immediately thought of the Second Cao of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Cui Chengxiu asked him to catch Zhou Zheng, but he also wanted to use Zhou Zheng to make a fuss, pull Cao Sicheng, and Cao Yubian into the water.
Tao Ran's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to smile, his voice hoarse: "I see, the person you want, I will take it back later, and hand it to you to bring it back to the Superintendent’s Court the day after tomorrow. I will let you make money tonight. Someone will bring it to you."
Zhou Zheng's brows moved slightly. Knowing that Tao Ran had misunderstood, he didn't explain, and said, "I'm waiting for your good news."
Tao Ran didn't say any more, took a deep look at Zhou Zheng, then turned and left.
Liu Benxi had been dragged away a long time ago, and the other criminal officials naturally followed him away.
The rest of the court officials looked at each other, not knowing what to do, standing still looking at Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng pondered for a moment and waved his hand: "When I go back, tell the truth, nothing else."
"Master Xie." The leader Ya Ya quickly said. They didn't dare to offend Zhou Zheng. Seeing Zhou Zheng waved his hand, they turned around and left in a hurry.
The guys at the door of Zhou Ji are okay. It's not the first time that such a scene has been staged. They have confidence in Zhou Zheng's owner. It was Kou Huai's first class scholar who saw the stunned, menacing Metropolitan Procuratorate, and dozens of people in the Criminal Department, so they were sent away by Zhou Zheng
Kou Huaiyi, Zhang Heyi and the others suddenly became nervous. They used to underestimate this owner. This boss is worthy of being a man who has been to the imperial court and envoys to build prisoners, and the crisis has been resolved by all gestures.
Zhou Zheng watched the government officials leave, and thought, Er Cao and Cui Chengxiu will soon know that Er Cao must be angry, and Cui Chengxiu must not be reconciled. He doesn't know how these big men will deal with it next.
Zhou Zheng turned his head, saw everyone looking at him, and said: "It's okay, go back and do something."
Liu Liuzhe seemed to wake up suddenly, and quickly turned around and said, "Whatever you look at, don't you have to do everything."
Zhou Ji is mainly in charge of Liu Liuzhe, and he still has a certain degree of prestige. When the guys listened, they laughed and turned around to do things, their hands and feet became more dexterous.
Kou Huaiyi and the others smiled stiffly, and turned to the backyard with a smile.
On the contrary, Zhang Heyi looked excited, rubbing his hands and looking at Zhou Zheng who walked in, and said in Nuo's words: "Um, my boss, my business..."
Zhou Zheng looked at him, thinking that he was anxious, and said, "It's done. Let's go through the procedure for two days, and then wait."
Zhang Heyi was overjoyed and raised her hand and said: "Thank you Dongjia! Zhang Heyi will never forget the great kindness of Dongjia today!"
Zhou Zheng was taken aback by his sudden gift, and helped him to his feet, saying: "With a little effort, you don't need such a gift."
Zhang Heyi got up, his face flushed, and said, "What you want, what the boss will send in the future, I, Zhang Heyi, will never say anything!"
Zhou Zheng smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and went up to the second floor.
The guys in Zhou Ji were busy, but a few scholars were whispering in the backyard, looking up at the second floor from time to time.
They originally thought that Zhou was just an ordinary Qing dynasty son, and even if they did something, it was due to chance. As for the court, it was nothing more than a passion, and they could be replaced by them.
But today Zhou Zheng retired from the Ministry of Justice with a wave of his hand, and the attitude of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is definitely not comparable to them!
Zhang Heyi quickly joined the whispers, but both inside and outside the words were firm defense of Zhou Zheng, and could not tolerate any disrespect for Zhou Zheng.
When these scholars whispered to themselves, as Zhou Zheng had expected, it didn't take long for the officialdom to become undercurrents.
What happened in Zhou Ji, no one would think it was an accident. It was clearly a temptation and a beginning of the battle between Cao Cao and Cui Chengxiu.
The anger of Er Cao quickly manifested. Before leaving get off work, the Metropolitan Procuratorate eliminated more than 30 officials, all of whom were related to Cui Chengxiu.
And Cui Chengxiu did not show weakness. Cui Chengli came forward. At the dinner, more than ten of them were invited and they were ready to be arranged to the Ministry of Engineering. The meaning of fighting for each other was very obvious.
When Zhou Zheng heard the news, he secretly shook his head.
At this time, we are still fighting, and we can't see the big picture.
Early the next morning, Zhou Zheng's family was eating, the concierge hurried over and handed over a greeting note, saying: "Master, someone outside the door sent a greeting note to see the second master."
Zhou Zheng was taken aback, took a look, his face changed slightly, and said to Zhou Qingli: "It's the king's courtier, Lord Wang."
Zhou Qingli's expression also moved. Wang Zhichen now supervises Ji Liao, who is comparable to the prestige of the Ministry of War.
"Let's show up, you talk." Zhou Qingli and Zhou Zhengdao.
Zhou Zheng hummed, got up and went out to meet him.
The three fathers and sons of the Zhou family came, and Wang Zhichen smiled and said: "Early in the morning, did I bother you?"
Zhou Qingli's face was dark, with a smile said: "Master Wang is joking, please."
Wang Zhichen did not have the frustration of leaving Beijing not long ago, and he was very energetic. He smiled and looked at the Zhou family's third father and son and walked into the Zhou mansion.
Once again, Zhou Zheng asked Wang Zhichen to come to a pavilion.
Wang Zhichen took a sip of tea, looked at Zhou Zheng with a big smile, and said, "Is it unexpected?"
Zhou Zhengdao: "Yes, my lord, you just arrived in Beijing, right?"
Wang Zhichen said: "I arrived last night. You sent me off at the beginning, but I have to come here today."
Zhou Zheng did not expect that Wang Zhichen would come back so quickly and become the supervisor of Ji Liao. He was a real frontier commander who was more prestigious than Yuan Chonghuan at the beginning!
"My lord, you are polite." Zhou Zhengdao.
Wang Zhichen looked at Zhou Zheng, nodded secretly, did not make a bend, and said: "I heard something about you yesterday. How are you thinking about my proposal? Go now, and you can avoid these right and wrongs. And I'm in Liaodong, you In Yongping Mansion, I can still take care of you one or two."
Yongping Mansion is next to Shanhaiguan and Jizhou, which is the only way to go from the north to the south.
Zhou Zheng didn't expect Wang Zhichen to be so straightforward, he pondered for a while, and said: "The students did consider it seriously, but we have to wait."
"hold on?"
Wang Zhichen was a little puzzled, and said, "What are you waiting for?"
Zhou Zheng looked at the king's minister, for a moment, and said, "You should have seen the emperor, right? There are some rumors that the emperor may not last long."
Wang Zhichen's face changed suddenly, and he said: "What is the rumor? I saw the emperor last night. The emperor is in spirit and has a good appetite. After eating two steamed buns, why can't it last long?"
Zhou Zheng couldn't explain too much to Wang Zhichen, and said, "My lord is going to Liaodong, but you can avoid it a little bit."
Wang Zhichen looked at Zhou Zheng's face without joking at all. What a joke about this kind of thing!
Wang Zhichen's expression gradually became serious. Zhou Zheng was not a casual nonsense person, and he would not say such things without any conclusive assurance!
If the Apocalypse is truly unpredictable, it will be an extremely important event for Daming!
Countless thoughts flashed in Wang Zhichen's mind for a while, thinking about the situation, thinking about the dilemma that Daming faced, thinking about who might succeed and the changes it will bring...
Wang Zhichen's expression gradually became solemn, his brows furrowed, and his heart was overwhelmed.
For a long time, Wang Zhichen raised his head and looked at Zhou Zhengdao: "Well, look at it again."
Zhou Zheng knew that there were too many meanings in his words, he couldn't ask more, and said, "What do you plan to do with Liaodong?"
Zhou Zheng knew that Yuan Chonghuan would go to Liaodong again after Chongzhen came to power, but he didn't know what Wang Zhichen was like afterwards.
"Consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan." Wang Zhichen said concisely. (End of this chapter)
