Zhang Zhou also wanted to beat Liu Jin to death with a stick.
However, the conditions are not met yet.
Besides, Zhang Zhou also knew that Liu Jin’s monopoly on power was just a microcosm of Zhu Houzhao’s misdeeds during the Zhengde period. Even without Liu Jin, there might still be Gu Dayong and Zhang Yong, and the Eight Tigers could still cause trouble if one of them was missing. There can still be Qian Ning, Jiang Bin, Xu Tai, etc. outside.
The key is not to solve a person's problem, but to solve Zhu Houzhao's stubborn character.
"Go and tell Father, won't Father attack me?"
Although Zhu Houzhao was also resentful of Zhu Youtang's "unreasonableness", he really let him take responsibility for it. Responsibility makes him a little timid.
Zhang Zhou said, "What His Majesty wants to see is your progress. Even if you do something wrong, as long as you can learn from it and His Majesty scolds you, he will be happy. And this is also your growth." It’s something you have to go through in the process.”
Zhu Houzhao glared at Zhang Zhou, “I found that you are very bad. It is different from what others said. If it were any other gentleman, they would have advised me to behave properly. You are a human being, but you are not afraid of your father punishing you."
Zhang Zhou spread his hands.
It means that if you want to be punished, it’s fine.
"How come I can see you all day long now? Why don't you just go into the palace if you have nothing to do?"
Zhu Houzhao didn't say he would agree, but judging from his tone, Zhang Zhou's suggestion was Listened.
You can't go to Zhu Youtang right away to argue, as that will make Zhu Youtang feel that his son is resisting. No matter what, you have to wait until Zhu Youtang's anger subsides.
Zhang Zhou stood up and said, "Prince, I am just here to tell you where you are wrong. This is His Majesty's order. Your fault is that you are too noisy. What is wrong with you?" I think everyone can accept your clothes to suit your status."
"What do you mean?"
"It means that if you are playing in a sand table, Your Majesty. Not only will he not blame you, he will also praise you and even play with you. But if you play Cuju, His Majesty will at most just watch from the side, or call you over to complain. But if you wear those clothes in the Wenhua Hall. You've seen the result of smashing things everywhere."
Zhu Houzhao thought about it for a moment, and then his little head suddenly understood, "You mean, if I am playing with something, my father thinks he can learn something. Yes, he won't blame me."
"Yes." Zhang Zhou nodded.
Zhu Houzhao said impatiently, "You think I have so many things to play with all day long. The palace is very boring. It's just a group of people like this. Occasionally you and those officials will come. You should be looking for something fun." It’s an easy game. You still have to worry about what your father thinks.”
Zhang Zhou said, “This is all I have to say. Whether you can listen to it depends on the prince himself.”
After saying this, Zhang Zhou said. Gotta go.
Zhu Houzhao said hurriedly, "Don't leave. I know that you are capable. You can teach me things and you can also find things for me to play with. I admit my mistake. Don't be angry. You can come back to play with me later." I know that not only will my father not be angry with the gameplay you brought out, he will alsoPraise me hehehehe"
Zhu Houzhao smiled with a smile on his face as he said it.
He still knows how to assess the situation and knows how capable Zhang Zhou is.
He earns his living based on his ability. You can teach him to read strictly and take him to play some novel and non-forbidden games. If you offend him, Zhang Zhou will never come again, and he will definitely be the one who suffers the loss.
Zhang Zhou shook his head, "I am just a scholar and cannot be an official in the East Palace. If the prince wants more ministers to come, he must first let him pass the imperial examination." "
"When will the test be taken?"
"Next spring, in February. "
"That's going to be soon, then I congratulate you on becoming a Jinshi. I promised you to come every day from now on, don't even think about it."
"Yes. "
"By the way, I got more than six thousand taels of silver from my eldest uncle and second uncle, but now I only have five thousand taels left. Do you want to give you one thousand taels and take it back? To prepare for the exam, it should also be regarded as an investment to open a bookstore together. ”
Zhu Houzhao also knew how to win people’s hearts.
Before he got the money, he thought it was a good thing. But after he got it, he realized that this thing could neither be brought into the palace nor It would be a burden to spend it.
So he was very generous and wanted to give Zhang Zhou a little, which means that if you common people like it, then I will give it to you, as long as you use the money to do things.
Zhang Zhou said: "No reward will be received for no merit, and the minister will not be short of money. The prince remembers that he will talk to his majesty about this matter in two days. You should be restrained in these two days. ”
Zhu Houzhao gave Zhang Zhou a blank look, “Okay, there’s so much nonsense.” I know what to do."
In the supervisory room of the Huanyi Bureau, Liu Jin was lying on a dilapidated couch.
There was not even a person bringing tea or water. No one even came to ask, the window paper was torn, and the cold wind blew in. Liu Jin felt cold and wanted to reach out to grab the quilt to cover herself, but found that her hands were frozen.
" Are you dead? Bring a brazier in"
Liu Jin shouted, but no one responded.
Although his current position as supervisor of the Clothing Bureau also has some status, everyone knows He was assigned here, and the people in charge of the laundry department are a group of senile old eunuchs. They can't take care of themselves, so who will take care of him?
Do you just want the laundry ladies to help him?
Liu Jin wanted to die like this until the next day.
His wounds began to fester and stick to his clothes. , but no one came to clean him up. When he was thinking about whether to pay someone to change his wound medicine, there were footsteps at the door, and then Zhang Zhou appeared in his room.
"You"
Liu Jin was furious when he saw Zhang Zhou, because he felt that Zhang Zhou had caused him to end up like this.
Zhang Zhou said to the man at the door, "I'll give you a favor." , I'll go in and do some work, please take me out in a while. "
"Okay, Immortal Master, please. ”
It’s too hot outsideSupervisor Yang Peng's voice.
Zhang Zhou then walked to the edge of the couch and looked at Liu Jin's appearance. Liu Jin was still groaning in pain, but after seeing Zhang Zhou, he had to take care of his manners and deliberately pretend Show yourself well.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see how he is.
Lao Liu’s final strength.
"How do you feel?" Zhang Zhou brought a stool over and sat down, as if joking and sarcastic.
Liu Jin said, "Zhang Gongsheng, are you here to see our joke?"
"Yes, I am here to add insult to injury and see if you are dead. If not, I’ll give you another bottle of poison,” Zhang Zhou said.
"You"
Liu Jin's face turned pale.
Obviously Zhang Zhou was bluffed, because he also felt yesterday that the emperor did have murderous intentions. If the emperor just didn't want to kill him in front of his son, but waited until he turned around to find someone to kill him
p>
"Liu Jin, do you know where you went wrong?"
Zhang Zhou discussed the issues of gains and losses with Liu Jin seriously.
Liu Jin is now so scared that she has no intention of talking to Zhang Zhou.
"Calm down" Zhang Zhou said, "No one wants to kill you, I'm scaring you."
"You"
The more Liu Jin calms down, the more Liu Jin becomes Not calm.
Devil.
You came up and said you were going to poison me, but you still asked me to calm down. Can I calm down?
"Liu Jin, do you know who the person in the world wants you to die the most?" Zhang Zhou asked.
Liu Jin glared at the past, "It's you"
Zhang Zhou shook his head, "So, your vision is too narrow. I work beside His Majesty and rarely go to the East Palace. Occasionally, it's just a visit. I’m giving lessons to the prince, having fun, and I don’t have any direct interests with you eunuchs in the East Palace. What does it have to do with me whether you die or not?”
Liu Jin was speechless for a moment.
He was actually clear in his heart. The person who wanted him dead the most was not Zhang Zhou, but his colleagues in the East Palace.
Peers are enemies.
Zhang Zhou worked for the emperor, and even got the favor of the Empress Dowager. He could tell when there would be thunder and fire in the sky. The eunuchs in charge of the ceremony, the eunuch in charge, and the factory owner in the East Factory all had to be polite to him. gas.
You, Liu Jin, take yourself too seriously
Liu Jin thinks that maybe she is a villain.
But this is really not the case.
Zhang Zhouxin said, the person who wants you to die the most in the world is of course me, Zhang.
Although you are just a nobody now, no one knows better than me how domineering you will be in the future and how much trouble you can cause.
Now it’s time to discuss the issue of seniority and inferiority with you.
"Liu Jin, what happened this time is that you did not understand your position clearly. You are just a father-in-law who obeys orders. Even if you can please the young master, no one will take you seriously. Instead, I will try to suppress you.Those things are just for you to win favor in front of the prince. It's a pity that some things are destined, and you are not lucky in life. "
When Liu Jin heard this, he looked up at Zhang Zhou.
There was no jealousy in his eyes.
Because he knew that he was not qualified to go with Zhang Zhou Zhou Chaoban.
I was not qualified to begin with, but now I am in such a bad state, I am even more unqualified.
Zhang Zhou said, "I want to return to the East Palace and continue to serve the prince."
Liu Jin didn't know what tone to use to speak, so he tried to lower his voice and said, "Is it still possible?"
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "To be honest, I met the prince yesterday and told him that life is the most important thing." The most important thing is to have the courage to take responsibility. I have discussed it with him. He will go to His Majesty in the next two days to talk about it, not only to learn to be responsible, but also to intercede on your behalf. ”
“You”
Liu Jin felt that his world view was about to be subverted.
She treated Zhang Zhou like that and regarded Zhang Zhou as an enemy. He actually helped him
Zhang Zhou said, "Liu Jin, do you think anyone else besides me will help you now?"
"No. "
Liu Jin is not a fool.
Now we are waiting to see if he is in trouble. Who will help him?
"Then you will do it in the future?" Zhang Zhou did not say anything
But it’s already obvious.
I help you, and you have to reciprocate. I can’t say that after I help you, if you treat me as an enemy again, then I will still spend this money. Kung Fu is just to make himself angry
Liu Jin didn’t answer for a while
Zhang Zhou said, “It seems that all the servants in the East Palace and even the Imperial Palace know how to assess the situation and know that His Majesty now trusts me. , compliment me in every possible way. But I know very well that I am just the second Li Guang. When I am in power, others treat me like a god. When I am down, they will step on me. "
"Only you, Mr. Liu, dare to go against the trend just because I competed for your position in the prince's heart."
Liu Jin hurriedly explained, "We are not. That means. "
Zhang Zhou said, "No need to explain. You are so arrogant that you definitely don't want to be inferior to others, but now that you have fallen like this, my help cannot be in vain. "
Liu Jin knew how to express his sincerity now. He said, "As long as you are willing to help Zhang Xianshi, I am willing to be driven by you all my life." This life, villain, is yours. "
"Okay"
Zhang Zhou stood up and said coldly, "I will take note of your words. As long as you are loyal to the prince, have no intention of harming me, and are willing to listen to me, Then your head is stored on your neck. If you violate this oath, I will take your head at any time and I will do what I say."
"Thank you Master Zhang, thank you Master Zhang. ”
Although Liu Jin could not stand up and kowtow to Zhang Zhou, he lay on the couch and kept banging his head on the wooden board to show his loyalty to Zhang Zhou.
Zhang Zhou was not in a hurry to leave the Huanyi Bureau, but asked Yang Peng to accompany him for a walk inside the Huanyi Bureau./p>
The Huanyi Bureau is mainly composed of convicted female officers.
It is already very cold in November of the lunar calendar, but female workers are still washing clothes in a large yard, and older female workers with slightly more seniority are responsible for drying clothes.
Zhang Zhou seemed to be looking for someone in the crowd.
Yang Peng said, "Someone heard about Liu Jin. He dared to deceive the king, and he dared to take the prince to play, and he deserved his death. Immortal Master, why do you need to come to see him?"
Zhang Zhou thought to himself , I not only came to see him, but I also wanted to help him return to the East Palace.
You think I am happy?
The person who wants this guy to die without a burial place is not me who is familiar with history, so who is it?
But the problem is It was the emperor, not the prince, who Liu Jin offended this time.
Zhu Houzhao has the style of a young chivalrous man and is the most loyal.
The naughty kid has no right to speak in front of his father, but yesterday it was obvious that he wanted to fight for Liu Jin. At this rate, I am afraid that not only will Liu Jin not be forgotten by history, but he will even It will be a "blessing in disguise".
A person who is willing to suffer for the prince, why do you think that he will never recover?
Zhang Zhou knew very well what the consequences would be if he insisted on forcing things, and it would probably be counterproductive.
It would be better to do the opposite, push Liu Jin down first, and then lift him up with some sweetness to make him grateful.
Don’t worry about Liu Jinen’s revenge. Before Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, even if Liu Jin had the prince as his backer, he would not be able to act. On the contrary, because of this incident, Liu Jin would have an enmity with the eunuchs of the East Palace, and Liu Jin would not be able to do so. Zhang Zhou does not rely on him.
Treat people like Liu Jin.
Being beaten to death with a stick is not the best goal. If Liu Jin dies, there will be a second Liu Jin.
The best thing is to control this person as much as possible and treat him as your own kite.
It depends on whether the string of the kite will break in the future, or when it will break.
"Eunuch Yang, if there are one or two women here, I would like to transfer one or two out, is there any chance?"
Zhang Zhou suddenly asked an unreasonable question.
Yang Peng was startled, wondering: "I'm afraid it won't be easy, but if there is someone you know, just say it and report him dead secretly or something, and there will be no problem in sending him out."
p>“Forget it, we’ll talk about it later.”
Zhang Zhou didn’t say clearly what was going on.
He looked back at Yang Peng and said with a smile, "How is the Qingning Palace being built?"
Yang Peng said with a smile, "It will definitely be completed before the year. The people below are working day and night, maybe It can be more than half a month in advance, maybe the Empress Dowager can move in before the year."
"Okay, I leave it to you."
Zhang Zhou is about to say goodbye to Yang Peng.
Yang Peng specially transferred a carriage to Zhang Zhou from the Royal Horse Supervisor.
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "I have my own carriage, so I won't bother Eunuch Yang."
Wait for Zhang Zhou to come upAfter getting into his carriage, he was also thinking about it.
If I use Yang Peng first and then Liu Jin, doesn’t that mean I am getting closer to Li Guang?
No.
You must go back and prepare for the exam quickly, otherwise you will have to be surrounded by these eunuchs all day long. I, Zhang, am determined to be the top scholar in the exam.
I came to Ming Dynasty, obviously to experience the imperial examination, my solution, my future number one, please remember to save it, the latest and fastest website, no anti-theft, free reading
