Zhou Zheng left the Qianqing Palace, walking on the way to Jiujiang Pavilion, still thinking about the conversation with Zhu Youjian just now.
He could feel that the next year's Chongzhen emperor had a sense of self-confidence. This confidence should come from he has mastered power, has the ability to protect himself, and even can take action against Wei Zhongxian.
"Almost." Zhou Zheng said to himself.
Zhu Youjian holds power, and Wei Zhongxian can't last long because of his disgusting disposition towards eunuchs.
When Zhou Zheng said this sentence, another sensational event occurred in the court.
The third cabinet minister, Feng Quan, openly filed a letter to impeach the chief and assistant Huang Liji's eight major crimes, including'stripping power, cultivating private individuals, cronyism, and forming parties for private interests'.
The death of the first emperor and the succession of the new emperor to the throne were originally a sensitive period. Zhou Zheng played his cards in an unreasonable manner and defeated Cui Chengxiu, which caused the affairs of the government to be uneasy. Then Jiangnan Gongsheng Qian Jiazheng impeached Wei Zhongxian's ten crimes, which is even more exciting The undercurrent of the ruling and opposition parties is surging.
Now, Feng Quan has openly filed a letter to impeach the first assistant Huang Liji, causing an uproar between the ruling party and the opposition.
This is more like a kind of direct announcement: the special period has passed, and the familiar state affairs have returned.
This is a blockbuster. The officials who have been dormant for a long time suddenly showed their fangs. From the six principals and above, more than one hundred supervisors from the prefectural court, dozens of six departments to give affairs, and then to various places. Grade officials, sharpened knives, and murderous.
Without waiting for the evening, more than a hundred memorials flew into the Tongzheng Shisi, with many names and different tricks, from the border to the capital, everything is covered, and the words are omnipresent.
Jiujiang Pavilion.
Zhou Zheng was turning over pages of information. Kou Huaiyi came in from the outside and looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "My boss, the reading room is a bit unquiet."
Zhou Zheng looked at the information of Yongping Mansion. After listening to Kou Huaiyi's words, he said indifferently: "According to the rules, warn once, don't listen twice, and prohibit entry for a month. If there is a third time, cancel the pass."
Kou Huai saw that Zhou Zheng didn't understand what he meant, and said, "The boss, they are discussing the court, and they are all saying that Yuanfu is going to be dismissed and Feng Ge is about to take up the post."
Zhou Zheng already knew about Feng Quan's letter, he snorted and said, "Tell them that Jiujiang Pavilion is a place to study. If you want to discuss current affairs, it's not too late to go out."
What Kou Huaiyi said was not the management of Jiujiang Pavilion, and he said cautiously: "My boss, the political situation may change drastically, will it affect you?"
Zhou Zhengcan fell to Cui Chengxiu, and was praised very high by the new party. Both parties had no good intentions towards him. If the political situation is chaotic, can Zhou Zheng escape
Zhou Zheng didn't care, and said, "Don't worry, they can't take care of me for the time being."
In fact, soon, they will know the methods of the new emperor who has been silent in the palace. They have no time to take care of themselves. How can they still have the energy to care for him
Seeing Zhou Zheng's expression calm, Kou Huai relaxed the tension on her face, and said more cautiously, "Then, Dongjia, when will you return to office?"
It has been a while since Zhou Zheng was dismissed from office.
Zhou Zheng still looked at the information, and said without looking up: "Don't worry, don't worry, it's just starting now, it's not good for you to blend in."
According to the rules, a person like Kou Huaiyi is also qualified to write a book, just like Qian Jiazheng. Zhou Zheng was looking at Kou Huaiyi and the other scholars. If they are mixed in now, the consequences will be unpredictable.
Kou Huaiyi admired Zhou Zheng very much. Hearing this, he quickly raised his hand and said: "Yes, I'll wait to know."
Zhou Zheng hummed, then raised his head and said: "There is a shortage of people in Zhanshifu. My father asked me to recommend a few. You will do it for a while. When the storm stabilizes, I will let you go to Zhanshifu. "
What is Zhanshifu? It was originally the place where the prince was taught, and it was the closest place to Longting!
What's more, Zhou Qingli is now a minister of the new emperor, who enters and leaves the court every day, and it is just around the corner!
Kou Huaiyi's expression vigorously lifted up his hand and said: "Kou Huaiyi will never forget the favor of his host!"
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Go and do something."
"Yes, the boss will rest soon, too." Kou Huai said with an excited expression.
Zhou Zheng smiled and looked at his back, paused for a moment, and continued to look down at the information.
From this point of view, it was the next day that the sky was slightly bright, Zhou Zheng was aching all over, stood up and stretched, and when he was about to go down to find something to eat, Liu Liuzhe led the person in quietly.
Yao Tongshun raised his hand and said, "The villain has seen an adult."
Zhou Zheng looked slightly awkward, and said, "What happened to my father?"
Yao Tongshun quickly said: "No, no, Zhou Zhan is all right. There is news. Zhou Zhan wants me to tell the adults."
Zhou Zheng nodded slightly and said, "Say."
Yao Tongshun hurriedly said: "There are rumors in the palace that Yan Mingtai will be transferred to Ji Liao Supervisor, and Wang Zaijin will succeed him and become the Minister of War."
The dispatch of the six high-ranking officials had nothing to do with Zhou Zheng, and it was not his turn to talk more.
But the news revealed in this is somewhat intriguing.
Yan Mingtai is an eunuch, only a few days after he took office as Shangshu? The Governor of the King’s Minister Ji Liao was appointed by the first emperor Tianqi.
Wang Zaijin is now the Shangshu of the Nanjing Military Department, and he is also an eunuch.
This operation is the emperor in the palace, or is it... Wei Zhongxian
If it is Zhu Youjian, it may have a certain deep meaning, perhaps a more direct temptation for Wei Zhongxian. If it's Wei Zhongxian, then Wei Zhongxian can't wait to die!
Either way, there is only one result, that is, the end of the castration party is closer.
Zhou Zheng pondered for a moment, and looked at Yao Tong and said, "Tell my father, just say I know, or the same sentence: Keep the same and respond to all changes."
Yao Tongshun now doesn't have the underestimation and vigilance that Zhou Zheng had when meeting for the first time. He now counts on Zhou Jiafei and Huang Tengda.
"Yes, the villain retires." Yao Tongshun said, and left in a hurry.
When Yao Tongshun left, Liu Liuzhe looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "Second Young Master, are you going to reinstate office?"
Zhou Zheng glanced at him and said, "No hurry."
Zhou Zheng said he was not in a hurry, but he was a little worried in his heart. He arranged a lot of things, many people, as major events get closer, it is fake that he is not nervous.
Zhou Zheng is not in a hurry, some people are in a hurry.
The Ming Dynasty has always been volatile, and it involves countless interests. The capital does not know how many people are moving, and the threshold of how many people has been crossed.
The palace was still very calm, no matter whether it was Feng Quan's impeachment of Huang Liji, or the replacement of the Ministry of War, Ji Liao Supervisor, there was no result.
The calmer the palace, the more active the ruling and opposition parties, impeaching the castrated party, impeaching the new party, the castrated party, etc., for a time dazzled and full of tricks.
In the seventh year of the Apocalypse, on October 20th, the Palace was cleaned up.
Zhu Youjian looked at Li Shi who was kneeling on the ground in front of him, and said coldly: "What did you say? Wei Zhongxian bribed the inmate to help him get rid of his crime? What crime?"
Li Shi knocked his head on the ground, trembling all over, and said tremblingly: "He, he, he wants to be Lu Buwei."
Zhu Youzhen was startled at first, then his eyes opened in anger, his face was squalid, almost cannibalistic!
Lu Buwei!
If a young scholar wants to be Lu Buwei, it may be because he wants to be a prime minister, with lofty ambitions, and it can barely make sense.
But if Wei Zhongxian wants to be Lu Buwei, it is a big taboo!
No emperor can tolerate this taboo! (End of this chapter)
