Ma Shiying looked at this ordinary gate of Zhou Mansion with a serious expression.
Zhou Zheng only asked for this, indicating that what he really wants to do is yet to come!
"Anyway, I got rid of the Cui family!"
Ma Shiying took a deep breath, glanced at the door of Zhou's house again, turned and left.
Zhou Zheng went back to the study and rested for a while, while practicing calligraphy and thinking.
Recently, there has been some peace in the game, and the impeachment melodrama is very rare. His impeachment of Cui Chengxiu should be very conspicuous, but there is no response. There should have been some actions at the salt merchant, but they were silent.
Today, it's quiet a bit strange.
Cui Chengxiu was Wei Zhongxian's most powerful civil servant and had the greatest influence in the court. Li Guopu and others chose him as a test for Wei Zhongxian and also for the new emperor Zhu Youjian.
However, all parties showed tolerance and no one moved.
Those big bosses who have entered Beijing one after another seem to have disappeared, and there is no movement.
"The tranquility before the storm..."
Zhou Zheng muttered to himself and put down his pen.
As soon as Zhou Zheng's pen was put down, Liu Liuzhe knocked on the door outside and said, "Second Young Master, someone has sent an invitation."
Invitation
Zhou Zhengdao: "Take it in."
Liu Liuzhe pushed the door in, handed it to Zhou Zheng, and said, "It belongs to Zhou Shangshu's family."
Zhou Zheng took it and looked through it. It was actually Zhou Yingqiu who married his daughter and invited Zhou's father and son to a banquet. The invitation also specifically noted the words "my family's relatives".
Zhou Zheng shook his head, threw the invitation on the table, pondered for a while, and said: "Tell the person who came here and said that I don't know the status of the clan, and I will reply when my father comes back."
Liu Liuzhe immediately said: "Yeah. By the way, the second young master, there is a person named Cui Zhiyou who recently placed an order of thirty thousand taels in Zhou."
"Thirty thousand taels?" Zhou Zheng raised his brows and asked in surprise.
Thirty thousand taels is a huge sum of money, and most people can’t get it. Even if they can get it, who would buy so many goods if it’s okay? It's not like doing business.
Naturally, Liu Liuzhe also knew that it was unusual, and said condensedly: "I asked someone to check it. This person is Cui Shangshu's nephew."
Zhou Zheng also guessed it, and said with a smile: "Since they have the money, then we will accept it, and the goods will not be given."
Liu Liuzhe blinked and said, "Second Young Master, do they have other goals?"
Zhou Zheng snorted and said, "This is a good sign, and I guess I want to delay the time."
Cui Chengxiu is a minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Wei Zhongxian is the backer. If this is delayed, it will be very detrimental to the Zhou family!
Liu Liuzhe looked at Zhou Zheng with a worried expression on his face.
Zhou Zheng nodded to him and said, "Don't worry."
They are all grasshoppers after autumn, and they won't be able to jump for long.
Liu Liuzhe had a blind trust in Zhou Zheng. Hearing what he said, he said, "Well, then I will go outside and continue to stare."
Zhou Zheng watched him go out, thought about it, and continued to practice calligraphy.
Zhou Fang came back late at night and fell asleep. When he had breakfast the next day, Zhou Fang still talked with Zhou Zheng about the hidden mansion with a full face, with inexplicable brilliance in his eyes.
Zhou Zheng smiled and didn't speak. Before leaving, Zhou Fang said, "The emperor will move to the palace in a few days. I don't think Dad and I have time to come back. Please take care of it at home."
Zhou Zheng nodded, and Zhu Youjian moved to the palace. He should have made some preparations.
Not long after Zhou Fang left, Hu Qingzheng came again when Zhou Zheng was preparing to leave the house with his teeth shaved.
In Zhou Zheng's study, the two sat opposite each other, drinking tea.
Hu Qingzheng couldn't hide the smile on his face, and said: "Tell you a good news, you will be reinstated."
Zhou Zheng was taken aback, looked at him and said, "Whose idea?"
Hu Qing said: "I don't know, it's the news from above."
Zhou Zheng didn't want to be reinstated at this time. He thought for a while and said, "You are so happy, isn't it because I am going to reinstate?"
Hu Qingzheng couldn't hide the complacency on his face, and said, "I'm going to Taipu Temple, Shao Cheng."
Zhou Zheng listened to this official position, and said with a smile: "A step in half a year, has it started?"
Shao Cheng, Shao Qing, Zheng Qing, Zheng Qing can be transferred to six Shangshu, faster than the minister.
Hu Qingzheng gave Zhou Zheng a somewhat irritable look, and said: "They said, what they promised you has been done, and they want you to continue to file to impeach Cui Chengxiu."
Zhou Zheng picked up his teacup and said, "Well, one in five days, okay?"
To impeach the Eunuch Party now, you must be rewarded afterwards. Although it seems dangerous to get out now, the gains are safe and sound.
Hu Qingzheng was a little dazed, looking at Zhou Zhengdao: "You mean it?"
One packet every five days. At this time, Cui Chengxiu had to be anxious.
Zhou Zhengdao: "I did what I said, but I don't want to be reinstated now."
Hu Qingzheng looked at Zhou Zheng suspiciously, always feeling that Zhou Zheng had another conspiracy, and said: "Okay, I'll go back and tell."
Liu Liuzhe hurried in and whispered in Zhou Zheng's ear: "Second Young Master, Tian Yushi was arrested by the Criminal Ministry because he was involved in the corruption case of the Ministry of Industry."
Zhou Zheng looked strange when he heard it. Tian Zhenshu was involved in the corruption case of the Ministry of Industry and was arrested by the Ministry of Criminal Justice? As a supervisory official, even if it is necessary to investigate, it is a matter for the procuratorate. Why is it the turn of the Criminal Ministry
There was something wrong with this. Zhou Zheng looked at Liu Liuzhe and said, "How did the news come?"
Liu Liuzhe said: "From Zheng Yushi."
Zheng Suli
Zhou positively expressed his doubts, at this moment, the corruption case of the Ministry of Industry broke out? Isn't Choi Chengsu busy wiping her butt
Hu Qingzheng looked at Zhou Zheng and suddenly said, "I forgot to tell you. The second Cao met with the emperor yesterday and is about to leave Beijing."
Zhou Zheng didn't know what his expression should be. Second Cao was because there was no official reinstatement or another re-use. Is this a retreat for progress
"Second Young Master, someone outside sent a greeting card." A family ran over and handed a greeting card.
Zhou Zheng looked at him, took it and opened it, and glanced across, tilting his head, his face a little weird.
This is Cui Chengli's greeting card, inviting him to drink in a restaurant at noon.
Cui Chengli actually used the greeting card? Did he give Zhou Zheng a greeting card
When did he use the greeting card? Doesn't it lose his identity
Immediately, Zhou Zheng's eyes were slightly cold, and he understood.
The thing about Tian Zhenshu was a ghost made by Cui Chengli. On the one hand, he placed an order in Zhouji, which was a good deal; on the other hand, he arrested his friend and demonstrated.
Both kindness and power, want to force him to submit!
Zhou Zheng looked at this greeting from inside and out, nothing unusual, and he didn't say anything else.
I don't know how to live or die.
Zhou Zheng turned to Jiading and said, "Tell the people here that I will have a banquet for Tian Yushi for a drink at noon. I'm not free."
Where did Jia Ding know how much, and he left after responding.
Liu Liuzhe blinked, looking at Zhou Zheng with a puzzled expression on his face.
Zhou Zheng didn't say much. If Cui Chengxiu did not let go, didn't he say that there was a corruption case? He took advantage of this corruption case and spoke well!
Hu Qingzheng was opposite Zhou Zheng. He heard and saw a little understanding, but didn't know what he meant. (End of this chapter)
