Zhou Zheng and Zhou Qingli talked'indifferently' until midnight before returning to the house.
Xiao Deshen was already asleep, Zhou Zheng put his arms around Shangguanqing, and the couple were talking about various things.
Previously, something indescribable was also done. (12,000 words omitted here)
Early the next morning, Zhou Mansion welcomed guests from all walks of life.
Including Zhou Zheng's few friends in the DPRK, Tian Zhenshu, Zheng Shouli and others. Then came the people from Jiujiang Pavilion, and then some old family members of the Zhou family.
Then, there are some people who come here "admiringly".
Zhou Zheng did not refuse to see him like he did before. He saw everything he could see.
In the evening, Zhou Zheng met with seven or eight people one after another. He did not know how many times he drank tea and alcohol.
At night, Zhou Zheng welcomed an unexpected person.
Li Hengbing.
In the pavilion in the front yard of the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Zheng and Li Hengbing were sitting opposite each other.
Li Hengbing's face was long and thin, his expression was indifferent, but his eyes were shining, staring at Zhou Zheng for a while, and he said to himself: "I used to think you had great ambitions, but now it seems that I was wrong. "
Zhou Zheng raised his brows slightly, and said calmly, "Where did you read it wrong?"
Li Hengbing returned to his senses and said, "If you have big ambitions, you won't catch Gao Yingxiang, you should raise your own thief. I guessed that you don't want to be Zhang Juzheng, you should be Wang Mang. But you just caught Gao Yingxiang."
Zhou Zheng slowly sat up straight and looked at Li Hengbing quietly.
To say who knows you best is definitely not the person you are close to, but your enemy!
This Li Hengbing's gaze was really vicious.
Zhou took a sip of tea as usual, and said, "How about I have great ambitions, so what if I don't?"
The so-called "big ambition" is naturally "different ambition".
There have been too many "unfaithfulness" of this kind. From the rebellion of the chieftain in Sichuan, the civil rebellion in the northwest, to the rebellion in Liaodong, they are all concrete manifestations of the death penalty imposed on Daming Guozuo.
Many people don't even think about appearing in Zhou Zheng, but Li Hengbing is different. He is Zhou Zheng's early enemy and has been observing his words and deeds.
Li Hengbing looked at Zhou Zheng's expression, looked suspicious, quickly calmed down, and said: "There are too many people disappointed with the court, and I am one of them. If you have great ambitions, there will be many people helping you."
Li Hengbing's words are very interesting.
Naturally, there were many disappointments in Ming Ting. Those ministers who had paid official posts, were dismissed, and even veterans of the four dynasties like Sun Chengzong resigned in angrily and vowed not to serve again. This shows how disappointed they are.
But this kind of "disappointment" is just disappointment, not the "disappointment" that Li Hengbing said.
Zhou Zheng gently turned the teacup with his left hand, and suddenly said, "Well, you will send Hong Chengchou to the prison. I will tell you a secret."
Li Hengbing looked at Zhou Zheng, frowned slightly, his heart moved, and said, "What other plans do you have?"
Zhou Zheng picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "I am a minister of the Ming Dynasty. What other plan do I need to eliminate thieves for the country?"
Li Hengbing knew about his relationship with Zhou Zheng. Zhou Zheng definitely would not reveal secrets to him. He stared at Zhou Zheng for a moment and said: "Hong Chengchou has repeatedly failed in Sichuan. It is not difficult to find a suitable time to send him to prison."
Zhou Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I'm waiting for your good news."
Li Hengbing kept frowning and said, "Although I still don't understand, I can see that you do have a plan."
Zhou Zheng wouldn't say anything to him, he just stood up, even omitting the word'see off'.
Li Hengbing looked at Zhou Zheng's back, then looked down at the tea cup in front of him, his brows were loosened, he did not drink, and stood up and turned away expressionlessly.
Zhou Zheng got out of the pavilion and came under the eaves. He looked at Liu Liuzhe who had been waiting, and said, "Find someone to stare at him. Be concealed and don't let him notice."
Liu Liuzhe looked down and said, "Ah, I'm going now."
As soon as he was about to leave, Zhou Zheng suddenly stopped him with a serious expression, and said: "Send a letter to Chu Jin to let him come back quietly and screen everyone around us. We can't beat the eagle, but the eagle pecked his eyes instead."
Liu Liuzhe understood immediately, looked careful, and whispered: "Do you check it all?"
Zhou Zheng nodded, his eyes calm, and said: "The army, the firm, the old Wei Na, including the mansion, all touch carefully, don't miss any corner, if there is evidence, dig deep; if there is doubt, send it away."
Liu Liuzhe had an instinctive premonition, and said solemnly: "Yes, I know."
Zhou Zheng didn't say much, Liu Liuzhe had been with him for many years, and he didn't need to say much about these things.
…
Although Zhou Zheng returned to Beijing to report on his work, he had a three-day holiday.
Entertaining guests at home on the first day, and walking around on the second day. He is also a high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty, and qualified people are called'adults', and there are crowds of people passing by.
People from Jiangxi, especially those from Jiujiang Prefecture, were very close to Zhou Zheng and appeared the most.
Over the years, Zhou Zheng has arranged a lot of people openly or secretly, and now he is qualified to be promoted.
In Jiujiang Pavilion, Zhou Zheng ordered more than 20 people in one breath. They were all poor children. They were taken into the bag by Zhou Zheng. Some of them were arranged to join the military department, and the other were sent to Hejian Prefecture, Yongping Prefecture, and Shandong Province. Lai Erfu.
Zhou Zheng also met with some local officials, especially about the "suppression of bandits," and they all wanted Zhou Zheng's support.
Nowadays, bandits are most prone to problems. If no one speaks up, they will almost certainly be unable to escape from jail, even if they have different heads.
On the day when he took office, Zhou Zheng led Xiao Deshen, who was less than two years old, into the Ministry of War and walked straight into the class room.
Many people saw Zhou Zheng and hurriedly saluted, looking at the little guy beside him, and naturally guessed that it was Zhou Zheng’s son. It was just that the Shangyamen still had children, not to mention the first one, it was also a very small number. There were a lot of surprised eyes.
Zhou Zheng didn't care about this. Before entering the class room, Yao Tongshun hurried over and said with a smile: "My lord, the class room is cleaned up, and all the official documents are on your desk."
Zhou Zheng smiled and nodded, stepping forward.
Yao Tongshun followed Zhou Zheng, his expression calm, and his heart very excited.
Who could have imagined that the little supervisory historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate could actually reach today's high position!
And he, an inconspicuous little official, can now enter the Ministry of War in a grandiose way and be the chief officer!
Zhou Zheng sat down in a chair, looked at Xiao Deshen, who was looking at him with big eyes blinking, touched his head, and smiled and said, "Daddy asked you to prepare something for you. It's fun. You can play for a while. Wait. When your mother comes back, I will send you back."
The little guy seemed to have arrived in a strange place, somewhat restrained, and responded with a low voice.
Yao Tongshun didn't wait for Zhou Zheng to see him, and hurriedly said, "The villain will prepare now to ensure that the young master will not be bored."
Zhou Zheng smiled and said: "Don't be too troublesome, find something to eat first, and then he will go out for a tour later."
Yao Tongshun hesitated and smiled: "Yes." (End of this chapter)
