When Zhou Zheng returned to Zhou Mansion, Zhou Qingli and Zhou Fang had been waiting.
In Zhou Qingli's study, the three fathers and sons were sitting on a small table and drinking a little wine.
Zhou Fang looked a little excited, and looked at Zhou Zhengdao: "Second brother, you did a beautiful job this time! I had already known this so I would have written a book. What a pity, what a pity! By the way, what else do you plan to do? It is impeachment together. Or do you come one by one?"
Zhou Zheng blinked. This eldest brother was over-excited, right? What silly things did he say
Zhou Qingli glanced at the eldest son, and said directly to Zhou Zheng: "You really took a risk this time. If the emperor insists on keeping Cui Chengxiu, the consequences will be disastrous."
The new emperor is still forbearing, is busy sorting out the relationship between the court and courtiers, and is adopting a pacifying strategy for the eunuch. As a general of the eunuch, Cui Chengxiu, if the new emperor insists on retaining Wei Zhongxian to stabilize Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch's arrogance will inevitably be even greater. Zhou Zheng, who has been impeached, will inevitably become a victim of appeasing the eunuch.
Zhou Zheng naturally thought about this possibility and said: "Well, I calculated carefully, Cui Chengxiu had to go, and it was useless for the new emperor to stay."
Zhou Qingli heard that this second son had done a lot of things under the desktop. He was silent for a while and said, "What are you going to do next?"
Cui Chengxiu's resignation was the result of Zhou Zheng's direct counting of the memorial and participation. Whether it is revenge or everyone's own danger, the eunuch will definitely take action next, and they can no longer control so much.
The actions of the New Party are even more obvious. It is clear that Zhou Zheng will be pushed to the front and become the pawn of the new emperor and the new emperor.
Zhou Zheng was not allowed in the court before. Now the two parties are working together to calculate Zhou Zheng. What will Zhou Zheng's career be in the future
Zhou Zheng understood what Zhou Qingli meant, and said: "I didn't intend to stay in the capital, let them be."
Neither the Eunuch Party nor the New Party will be proud of it for long, and the situation they are looking forward to will not happen.
Zhou Qingli listened to Zhou Zheng's words, and said: "I'm asking what will you do next?"
Zhou Qingli already knows a little about Zhou Zheng. Zhou Zheng clearly has a plan in his heart. He wants to know what Zhou Zheng still wants to do and what he wants to do!
As Zhou Fang listened, he looked at Zhou Zheng a little eagerly. It was almost impossible to write on his face'take me with'.
Zhou Zheng looked at Father Zhou, pondered for a moment, and said, "Wait."
"What are you waiting for?" Zhou Qing said.
"Wait for the new emperor to take action." Zhou Zhengyan said concisely.
Zhu Youjian has already lived in the palace, and it is almost September now. In another month at most, Zhu Youjian will be able to sort out the Qing Dynasty and control the situation. At that time, he will decisively attack the eunuch, ruthlessly and quickly. ruthless!
Zhou Qingli silently pondered Zhou Zheng's words, and then said after a moment: "Even if the emperor wants to hold authority, he may just expel Wei Zhongxian and expel the castrated party. There will be no too violent actions."
Zhou Zheng shook his head and said: "Wei Zhongxian is not a simple eunuch. His power has not been seen in ancient times. No emperor can tolerate it. He is alive, and the new emperor will only toss and turn, like a man on his back, unable to sleep."
Zhou Qingli frowned and nodded imperceptibly for a moment.
Wei Zhongxian is indeed what Zhou Zheng said. He is not only an eunuch, but also not a powerful official. His power extends from the palace to the frontier. It is unimaginable for the new emperor to become a real emperor. Cut off, there is no other choice.
This is not whether the emperor is benevolent or whether Wei Zhongxian is useful, but the ass decides his head, an inevitable move of the emperor!
Zhou Zheng knew that Father Zhou was worried about him, and after a while, he said: "I will sit and watch the wind direction, and I will not take action easily. Jiujiang Pavilion is about to be completed, and I have a lot of things."
Zhou Qingli could hear that it was comforting, so she picked up the tea cup and said, "Before I left the palace, the emperor seemed to want to see you."
Zhou Zheng was startled, Zhu Youjian wanted to see him
Zhou Qingli took a sip of tea, put it down and said, "I'm resigning, you are not suitable for seeing the emperor now."
Zhou Zheng understood. Zhou Qingli didn't want Zhu Youjian to see him, and seemed afraid that he should say something'should not'.
Zhou Qingli went on to say: "Now the castration party, Donglin is staring at you, so be careful."
Zhou Zheng didn't say that he was attacked just now, and said: "I know."
The castration party is undoubtedly undoubted. As for the so-called New Party, in the eyes of many people, it is the Donglin Party, and the Donglin Party represents Qingliu to a large extent.
The two parties are even more intolerant of him. In the eyes of many people, Zhou Zheng's path to officialdom will be extremely difficult to follow, and even ruined his career.
Zhou Fang was hesitant to speak, and the envy on his face made no secret of it. He is also eager to do a career, watching Zhou Zheng's big movements one after another, especially the participation of the castrate general Cui Chengxiu, it is even more difficult to control himself.
Zhou Qingli knew the eldest son very well, and said lightly: "Hengping, you will follow me into the palace tomorrow."
What the second son does is quite reasonable. If the eldest son gets in the way, it might be a disaster.
Knowing what Father Zhou meant, Zhou Fang moved the corners of his mouth and didn't say anything. Although the impeachment of the eunuch is a big deal, the new emperor's is even bigger.
When Zhou's three fathers and sons discussed, Meng Hezhou also made progress here.
A secret guard came out of a torture room with a paper and handed it to Meng Hezhou, saying: "Meng Tau, recruit it, it's Cui Chengli's person, he let it do it."
Meng Hezhou was taken aback, took a look, and said in disbelief, "He didn't blame you, right?"
The dark guard hurriedly said: "Meng Tou can rest assured, although these people are desperadoes, but they can't resist the big punishment, they are absolutely true!"
The reason why Meng Hezhou didn't believe it was because Zhou Zheng and Cui Chengxiu were both on the cusp of wind and waves. Cui Chengxiu was involved in the fall. If something happened to Zhou Zheng, Cui Chengxiu would be the first thing anyone would think of.
Annoyed into anger, this kind of behavior cannot be tolerated by scholar-bureaucrats. If it explodes, Cui Chengxiu will not want to leave Beijing. Tianja is his permanent home.
This Cui Chengli is in a hurry, is she really a stupid pig? Does Choi Chengsu know
Meng Hezhou just thought about it so he didn't bother to worry about it, and said directly: "People give it to Zhou Zhengyun. These people are optimistic, especially the leader. They must find a way to keep him alive."
"Yes." The dark guard replied.
At this time, Cui Chengxiu and Cui Chengxiu were a little anxious, staring at the people in front of them through the crack of the door, and asked: "Cao Zhihuang hasn't come back yet?"
The next person doesn't know how many times he has answered, or honestly said: "Yes, there is no reply."
Cui Chengxiu frowned and muttered to herself: "It shouldn't be. How can it take so long to clean up a Zhou Zheng? Cao Zhihuang has always been so quick to make his moves. Why did it take so long this time?"
The servant looked at Cui Chengli and wanted to say but didn't dare to say.
He wanted to say, will Cao Zhihuang fail? But thinking that Zhou Zheng is an ordinary family of officials, more than a dozen desperadoes, with mental arithmetic and unintentional, there is no reason for failure.
Naturally, Cui Chengli did not think about it. Cao Zhihuang had assassinated many high-ranking officials without fail.
"Second Lord, I have come all the way back, let you see him." A servant ran over and said.
Cui Chengli was surprised through the crack of the door, and said, "What's the matter?"
Hearing Cui Chengli's tone, the man was taken aback, and quickly said: "It seems that the second master is to prepare money."
Cui Chengli was relieved, snorted coldly, and said, "Then don't open the door soon."
The servant hurriedly opened the door and let Cui Chengli out.
At this moment, Cui Chengxiu has cleaned up almost everything, and is about to pack his things and leave Beijing. Where does he know his good brother, what Cui Chengli has done with him behind his back, there is still some relaxed smile on his face at the moment. (End of this chapter)
