The affairs of the clan have always been royal matters, royal matters, nothing trivial.
King Lu asked for salary from the palace in the capital, but the imperial court refused to pay, which naturally aroused concern, especially King Lu's reckless jumping of feet, which made many people's faces dull.
While Wang Lu wrote letters and invited people everywhere, he jumped up and down the capital, using all means to force the court to give money.
The next day, King Lu came to the cabinet again and sat withered for half an hour, Zhou Yanru didn't even show his face.
After thinking about it, he came to Zhengxilang again.
At first, Zhang Heyi was still talking funny at the door, and asked him to go to the cabinet. King Lu couldn't bear it, and he broke open and cursed at the door.
King Lu was a bit decent and demeaned. He directed at the gate of Zhengxi Corridor and said angrily: "Zhou Zhengyun, you will come out to this king! You dare to deduct the salary of the clan, do you want to kill you! This matter is your majesty, Yuan If the assistant leader agrees, you have to give if you don't!"
"Let me tell you, what is the clan? It is connected with the emperor's blood, the descendants of the great ancestor, you dare to treat harshly, how many heads do you have?"
"Zhou Zhengyun! If you don't give it, I won't leave here today! I tell you, if I don't see the silver today, I will burn this place tomorrow!"
Wang Lu shouted at the door like this, and there was a lot of discussion in the Zhengxi Gallery, and there was no way to do anything.
And it spread quickly to the inside and outside of the uterus, and I don't know how much movement it will cause.
Zhang Heyi's face was cold, this King Lu was completely skinless for some money.
"I tell you, don't think that the emperor is bullied when he is young. Our clan families will never just watch you bully the emperor!"
"This Daming belongs to our Zhu family. When will it be your turn to call the shots? With our clans, you can't even think about shaking the sky..."
Seeing that what King Lu said was getting worse and worse, Zhang Heyi quickly turned around and went inside, preparing to invite Zhou Zheng.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Zhou Zheng had come out.
King Lu saw that Zhou Zhengben was about to raise his neck and drink, but he didn't know why, his breath was short, and he stared at Zhou Zheng angrily and did not continue to curse.
Zhou Zheng stood on the steps, glanced at King Lu, then glanced at the people around him, snorted coldly, and said, "A prince who is dignified here, screaming and screaming, what a decent way!"
King Lu suppressed his anger and said: "The emperor has said that he wants to embezzle your military salary to our clan, and you will leave if you give it to me."
"Fart! You dare to embezzle the military salary. Did your head get kicked by a donkey?! This Li Zicheng just lost, do you want him to come again? The first emperor is still watching over us. Could it be that you have to surrender to the thief and do it? That rebellious thief!? The officer tells you, if you dare to talk nonsense and nonsense, I will cut it off now, and then you will go to the palace to apologize!" Zhou Zheng backed his hands and reprimanded loudly without mercy.
Before Zhou Zheng's words fell, a group of guards rushed over, the scabbard half out, with a cold expression.
King Lu's expression turned white, and his stubborn neck slowly retracted.
With Zhou Zheng's current prestige, if he really wanted to kill his prince, it might not be too much trouble. The people of the world would only praise Zhou Zheng for not fearing the noble and going straight.
Zhang Heyi watched Wang Lu's movements with a sneer on her face. This kind of stuff dared to come to them and clamor for embezzlement of military pay. He really didn't know how to live or die!
King Lu looked at Zhou Zheng's indifferent expression and glanced around. How could he dare to speak more, turn his head and leave.
Zhou Zheng watched him go, snorted coldly, and said: "Next time King Lu dares to make trouble again, he will be arrested and sent to the emperor. The officer said to him well."
"Yes." The school lieutenant who was in charge of guarding the cabinet replied solemnly.
King Lu listened behind him, how dare he stay longer, and ran away quickly.
The first thing I knew was that the cabinet next to Zhengxi Gallery, Zhou Yanru listened to Zhou Zheng's words in his ears, his expression moved, and his brows furrowed deeper.
In the Palace of the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Cihong was studying under the guidance of several Hanlin scholars. Hearing about this, he said with joy: "Zheng Xibo deserves to be the pillar minister of the country. Good point!"
Several bachelors looked at each other, and they were all approving.
Regardless of whether it was Zhu Cihong or these civil servants, inwardly, they didn't want to give so much money to the clan, especially at this time. It's just these words that can't be said publicly.
Li Zhong stood aside, did not speak, and secretly said that King Lu was also dizzy, and Zhou Zhengyun also dared to blackmail.
King Lu was out of the palace, feeling bored, feeling that the entire capital was bullying him.
He is a dignified prince. He has been passed down from the time of Taizu until now. When has he been bullied like this
"When will they arrive?" Wang Lu had a green face, his inner anger was about to explode, and his anger shouted at the Wangfu Changshi beside him.
Chang Shi quickly said: "The King Zhou, King Xiang, King Jing temporarily live in Zhangde, King Liao in Fengyang, King Zhao in Zhangde, King Zheng in Huaiqing, King Huai in the river, King De in Jinan, King Heng in Qingzhou These are relatively recent, the news has been released long ago, and you will be able to arrive in Beijing in three days at the latest."
King Lu listened, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay! As soon as they arrive, we will enter Beijing together. I am alone and they bully, I don't believe it, so many clan princes, they can bully!"
Chang Shi did not dare to speak, and accompanied King Lu back to the restaurant.
It can be said that the imperial clan of Ming Dynasty has been hit hard, especially in Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Huguang and other places. Most of the princes fled before the people came, and those who were too late were killed, such as King Jin and King Hui. .
That is to say, some vassal lords that were not affected by the bandits, such as Fujian and Shandong. Those princes who were looted by Li Zicheng and other bandits and lost their wealth, received a letter from King Lu, and rushed to the capital without stopping, wanting to regain the palace and the fief, and asked the court to give them money for building the palace and to make up for it. A loss of time.
Zhou Zhengcai would not pay attention to them. He was busy with too many things in Zhengxilang.
In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, June 11th.
Man Gui, Shi Kefa, etc. sent a victory report. They gathered an army of 60,000 and finally conquered Xiangyang, and the thieves were defeated.
This incident, for the court, was naturally overjoyed. Li Zicheng was overjoyed after he breached Xiangyang. He changed to Xiangjing to continue to sit and conquer Xiangyang. It was a heavy blow to the intruders, the army regained lost ground and quelled the chaos in the northwest. An important step!
Zhu Cihong was the happiest, calling Zhou Zheng, Zhou Yanru, and the Shangshu Li Banghua of the Ministry of War and others into the palace, and praised them with excitement for a long time.
It is a pity that apart from some false titles, the palace has basically no practical benefits.
However, Zhu Cihong didn't seem to care about this. He kept talking about'revitalizing the ancestral industry, destroying the bandits', and asking the courtiers to'work together, have a beginning and an end'.
These words were clearly spoken by those bachelors, and Zhu Cihong just copied the original words.
Zhou Yanru is humble, and he has repeatedly expressed his determination, and all the credit is his appearance.
Zhou Zheng looked still, and occasionally took two sentences.
Zhu Cihong clearly saw who was fighting the bandits and who was the main hero, so the words were turning around Zhou Zheng.
Li Banghua, who is an official book of the Ministry of War, has completely become a foil, without a word of him for a long time. (End of this chapter)
