Chapter 616: In the ascendant

Views:

Zhou Zheng listened to Liu Liuzhe's thoughtful words, laughed, holding his teacup, and looking out the door quietly.

Xu Wenjue is indeed a bonehead. In history, the Manchus invaded Nanjing. He was the one who led the crowd to surrender.

But can this little emperor really bend and stretch

Zhou Zheng took a sip of the teacup, and said lightly: "Next year, you will go to Nanjing in person. I have changed the guard eunuch. Li Hengbing will be the governor of Nanzhili again, and Jiang Guangyue will be the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department."

Liu Liuzhe looked at Zhou Zheng with some caution, and said in a low voice, "Second Young Master, can Li Hengbing believe it?"

Zhou Zheng sighed lightly, with a cold expression, and said, "I have ordered Zhang Yitan to serve as Yingtian's general. If someone makes trouble, you hold my token."

Liu Liuzhe immediately understood and said, "Yes! Second Young Master, I know how to do it."

Zhou Zheng gave a hum, and then said: "These are next year's words. Please keep an eye on the developments in China, inside and outside."

Liu Liuzhe answered again. Before he could answer the call, Zhou Fang came, his expression a little unpleasant.

Liu Liuzhe hurriedly bowed and backed out.

Zhou Fang walked in and said with an annoyed look: "You want to give Shuntian Mansion to Zhou Yanru?"

Shuntian Mansion is in charge of the capital, and Shuntian Mansion's Yin Sanpin ranks among the dynasty class. It is even more important than the ordinary officials in Xinjiang. You can imagine how important it is.

Zhou Zheng stretched out his hand to pour him a cup of tea, and said: "Yuan Fu said in public, if I don't agree, let me blood on the spot."

Zhou Fang didn't know this, so the corners of his mouth twitched as he listened.

The Ming court often staged some weird plays, such as the officials blocking the emperor and'education' for a few hours, the emperor could only endure and hide. For another example, under the enthusiasm of the group, the treacherous nephews were beaten to death with old punches at the Golden Luang Temple.

These can still be said, if a head assistant is chasing and killing court officials on the Golden Luang Hall with a dagger, it is simply a horrible story!

Zhou Fang understood the pressure Zhou was facing, and sat down opposite, picked up the teacup, and just about to drink, he said, "Also give up the Criminal Ministry?"

Zhou Zheng said leisurely: "I plan to reform the Criminal Ministry and sort out the repeated functions and powers."

The subtext is that Zhou Zheng is going to cut the power of the Criminal Department.

Zhou Fang drank tea in silence, paying tribute to the assistant to the head of Zhou, I am afraid he is still complacent.

Zhou Fang took a sip of tea, concentrating on his thoughts, and said, "What should I do next?"

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry." Zhou Zheng said without hesitation.

Zhou Fang put down his tea cup, frowned, and said, "The Ministry of Engineering is in charge of all kinds of projects, palaces, city walls and other repairs, it's useless."

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "I will sort out the powers of the six ministries.

Zhou Fang was a person who wanted to do things. He was immediately satisfied and said: "Okay, I will listen to you. I will go back and arrange things in Shuntian Mansion. By the way, my younger brother and sister let you go back to discipline your children."

Zhou Zheng agreed and continued to look through the memo.

The situation in the northwest is getting more and more to the most critical moment. Judging from the memorabilia of Lu Xiangsheng and others, Lu Xiangsheng and Qin Liangyu and others crocheted a big net, preparing to capture Li Zicheng and others in one go!

The northwest is about the stability of Daming Sheji, and Zhou Zheng has never relaxed.

When Zhou Fang came out of the Zhengxi Corridor, he happened to see Chen Yan and Zhang Sizhi coming out of the cabinet. The three of them looked at each other and all nodded and smiled.

Zhou Fang left in a big stride. He was going to take up the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and hand over to Shuntian Mansion. Some of them were busy.

Looking at Zhou Fang's back, Zhang Sizhi sighed softly, "You said, why is he so happy?"

Chen Yan's Hubu Shangshu was gone, but he was not released from the capital. At this moment, he was not much better. He looked at Zhang Sizhi, who was transferred to the Criminal Department Shangshu, and said, "He has a good brother. Leave them alone, you go to the Criminal Department, planning to How to do?"

Zhang Sizhi raised his head and looked at the sky, and said, "The clan, Xungui's side is settled, and we don't need to worry about it. The rest are the officials, Yuanfu, who means that they can be guaranteed, and those who cannot be guaranteed should also keep incense. situation."

Chen Yan nodded and then shook his head, saying: "Yuanfu and Zhengxibo will do their own things, conflicts will occur again, I have to get rid of it, and you have to plan early."

When Zhang Sizhi thought of the surrender form, his scalp was numb, and he couldn't figure it out. At that time, he wrote a surrender form to Li Zicheng so confused that he made an irreparable mistake!

Zhang Sizhi looked irritable, and said, "Wait, let's talk about it, somehow pass this year first."

Chen Yan nodded silently. New Year's Eve is about to be more than a month away. New Year's Eve will be the first year of Anhe, completely saying goodbye to Chongzhen.

After half an hour, Shangguan Lie purged the original Xu Wenjue's 1,000 people, leaving about 700 people, standing uniformly in front of the Qianqing Palace.

In front of the stairs of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Cihong sullenly looked at these people, while Yu Guang looked at Shangguan Lie on the side, his body trembling visible.

Shangguan Lie looked down and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has been checked and purged. These 700 people can be sent by your Majesty. The appointment, defense, and placement are all determined by your Majesty, and the minister does not say anything."

Zhu Cihong was startled, looking at him and said, "Really, give it to me?"

Shangguan Lie said: "Yes."

Zhu Cihong was a little suspicious, but even more excited. If these people belonged to him, then the inner court belonged to him. At least it was a bit safer.

Zhu Cihong stared at the seven hundred people, his eyes hot, and said: "Then, the city gate, is it still blocked?"

Shangguan Lie leaned forward and said, "If the door is not closed, your Majesty will enter and leave at will."

Zhu Cihong was agitated, but more suspicious, and very upset, but no one discussed it, so he could only look at Li Zhong and Li Huazhen.

Li Zhong tucked his eyebrows, but couldn't figure it out.

However, Li Huazhen smiled and said: "Don't worry, your majesty will just take your time."

Zhu Cihong listened, as if feeling reasonable, nodded silently.

At the same time, Qian Qianyi opened the trial again in the lobby of the Criminal Ministry.

This is the trial, and is the noble minister second only to the clan. Among the noble princes, there are more thieves than in the clan, and the relationship between each other is very complicated, and it affects the whole body.

A lot of people screamed injustice, but the evidence that Sansi produced was enough to be of the same level, even if there was no adversary, they would not be able to escape.

After trial after trial, the people onlookers were dumbfounded and shocked.

Once unattainable, these princes Houb, who thought they were glamorous, turned out to be so dirty and nasty!

Like last time, Qian Qianyi did not judge in public, but chose a day to pronounce his sentence.

However, two major cases in a row caused huge storms in the capital and spread rapidly outside the capital.

These clan families, these noble ministers, are not a year or two. They range from a hundred years to as many as two hundred years. They have deep roots and cross branches, and they are destined to cause huge waves!

The arrest of those supervisors has caused dissatisfaction and shock from the ruling and the opposition. If these two major cases are pronounced, the whole world will be shaken!

The officials in the capital moved one after another, and the political messenger who had been idle was suddenly busy and received more and more memoirs.

Even some old antiques who have been dedicated to official affairs for many years, and even those who are not concerned about the world, have come out one after another, appearing in the court's vision in various ways.

Local officials have received news one after another, and the memorial of the letter is on the way, like a Qing crossing the river, rushing to the capital. (End of this chapter)
