Zhang Zhou gave him the strategy, but he couldn't explain what it was specifically. Even if Zhang Heling blew his beard and stared, it would be useless.
This is equivalent to a hint.
It would be too incompetent for him to come forward on his own regarding the emperor's concubine.
Either the Empress Dowager, Empress Zhang or the Zhang family will come
If you want to achieve the necessary conditions, you need Zhang Zhou to go behind the scenes and make it appear that everything has nothing to do with him after the incident. look.
"Mr. Zhang, what did you say to Shouning Hou before?"
On the way back, Sun Shangqi, who was driving the carriage, was very concerned about this issue.
This involves how he will do business in the future.
Zhang Zhou said, "Nothing, just a brief chat. By the way, return this gift to Your Majesty for me and let Eunuch Xiao go. Tell Your Majesty, just tell me what the Queen asked me to do. I am very happy." It's hard to do, so I can only return this gift."
"This"
Sun Shangqi is in a difficult position.
He was thinking, just return this gift to the queen, what does it mean to return it to the emperor?
Zhang Zhou looked very leisurely. In the carriage, he had his hand around Wang Mingshan's waist. The feeling of the slender tentacles is no better than that of the girl from Jiaofangsi
It's a pity.
I finally had the opportunity to see Ming Fengyue, but I seemed to have missed it.
"Send it back. I work for your majesty or the court. What matters is how much you do and how much you get as a gift. If you receive a reward for something you can't do, you will feel uneasy. Thieves also have their ways, let alone me. Where are the ministers?"
""
Sun Shangqi was speechless.
How can this be compared to a bandit?
Sun Shangqi was also worried. He originally wanted to learn some strategies for dealing with people from Zhang Zhou, a wise man, but he found that there were many He really can't learn these things. If someone really gave him these things as a gift, wouldn't he take them home quickly?
Wouldn't it hurt to spit out these things?
Qianqing Palace, late at night .
Zhu Youtang is still reviewing the memorial. He has not been to Kunning Palace in recent days. In his opinion, he will wait until the Zhang Yanling matter is concluded before going.
"Your Majesty"
Xiao Jing appeared in front of him and brought the wooden box that Zhang Zhou had given Sun Shang to the emperor intact.
"This is" Zhu Youtang frowned.
Xiao Jing then talked about Shouning Hou’s invitation to Zhang Zhou, and also explained that it was given to Zhang Zhou by Empress Zhang.
Zhu Youtang said slightly angrily, "The queen didn't ask me about Yanling. Why did she ask Bingkuan and give these to Bingkuan? It's to let Bingkuan take care of other people when he does things in the future." Don’t you mention the big plan to me?”
Hearing the emperor’s words, Xiao Jing didn’t even dare to breathe.
Originally Xiao Jing didn’t really want to understand why Zhang Zhou gave these gifts back, but now he seemed to think that Zhang Zhou was deliberately trying to sow discord between the emperor and the empress
Zhang Zhou probably wouldn’t do this
But the emperorThe anger is real.
"Your Majesty, calm down." Dai Yi, who was still reviewing memorials at the prescription table not far away, hurried over to persuade him.
Zhu Youtang said, "Bingkuan can understand God's will, and he can always remind me and let me be on guard. Many of the suggestions he gave me are things that the court officials and you dare not mention. Because he doesn't stick to secular etiquette and can be honest with me, I feel that he is a pillar of the Ming Dynasty. But now, the queen wants to turn Bingkuan into a villain who wants to be popular. Is this what the queen is doing? I didn't consider the consequences."
Now Dai Yi and Xiao Jing seemed to understand why the emperor was so angry.
Xiao Jing hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, what Mr. Zhang means is that he loves money but takes it in a wise way. He will not take it if he can't do anything about it."
"He does it." That's right." Zhu Youtang said, "If you have care in doing things, what is the difference between him and the courtiers? What I am most afraid of is that after he becomes an official in the court, he will become moderate and conservative in order to agree with his colleagues. Let him be humbled by the powerful, and tell him that if someone gives him a gift again and asks him to do something for him, he can accept the gift, but he is not allowed to do anything for those people."
Originally Dai Yihe Xiao Jing thought that the emperor was going to say that someone was going to deliver gifts and ask Zhang Zhou to return all the gifts or hand them over.
After hearing what the emperor said, they were all surprised.
Can this be done
Let Zhang Zhou collect money and not do anything
"As time goes by, those people will naturally stop looking for him. But if he doesn't accept it, It will be temporarily managed by Dongchang. "Zhu Youtang probably thought that Zhang Zhou was a good character and would not accept money for no reason. After all, he could even return what the queen had given him, which was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
So he added another sentence.
Xiao Jing was smiling bitterly.
Why is there still something about Dongchang?
Dai Yi asked, "Your Majesty, these"
"Put them here until the matter of Yanling is decided. After that, it’s not embarrassing enough to let the queen take it back by herself."
Zhu Youtang seemed to think that his wife was very shameful, and it was simply a smear on his husband’s face.
Xiao Jing next to him seemed a little wary. After all, he was the one who connected the Queen and Zhang Zhou. If the emperor found out, he might have to be transferred to another position, or take away his job. Lived.
Early the next morning.
The court meeting was coming to an end, and when it was time to disperse, Zhu Youtang seemed to have thought of something, and said to the ministers present, "Dear gentlemen, I have spoken out. Recently, Jian Changbo was imprisoned in the north. "Zhenfu Division, you all know about it, right?"
Of course the ministers all know about this, but it is a good thing that Zhang Yanling was imprisoned by the emperor.
We all want to watch the fun, but who will mention it
Liu Jiandao, "Your Majesty, there is a case of local gangsters plundering people's wealth in the name of Jian Changbo"
"Yes, and no."
Zhu Youtang's tone was very simple, "Actually, someone told me that God might punish me because of my favor towards Zhang's relatives.So I have to do this. ”
The ministers present were in an uproar.
How can it be like this?
Whoever mentioned this to the emperor is an expert
Knowing the emperor’s favor It is impossible for the Zhang brothers to take advantage of the Zhang brothers, and simply use the emperor's most fearful providence as an excuse. But if this kind of thing doesn't go well, it will be easy for them to get involved.
Just like Qing Qing. The fire in Ning Palace was thought to be Li Guang's fault. This was because the ministers had been mentioning in front of the emperor that Li Guang should not build Yuxiu Pavilion, and that the Empress Dowager Zhou was fanning the flames behind her back. It was not something that could be forcibly contacted by a fire. .
How confident is the person who made the suggestion to the emperor that something must be connected to Zhang Yanling’s evil deeds?
Liu Jian continued to ask, “Your Majesty, I don’t know. Who is he and why?"
"Don't ask about this. "Zhu Youtang did not say that this was Zhang Zhou's suggestion, and he did not want to elevate Zhang Zhou to too high a position before Zhang Zhou became an official.
But most of the ministers present actually thought of the previous Zhang Gongsheng, who can predict almost everything accurately,
Who else can make the emperor take such a firm stance on the Zhang family issue now?
"As for things, it's very difficult. There may be an earthquake in Jianchangwei, Jianchangfu, and Jianchang County. My dear friends, let me put my words here. In the past few years, I have indeed been a little arrogant towards the Zhang family's relatives, but that is after all. If my in-laws and relatives make God angry because of my appointment of them, then I will put things right in time. Just leave the court like this."
The emperor just put down his words without explaining much, got up and left.
When the emperor left, as expected, the ministers all started talking. .
"Everything your Majesty throws out recently is so sensational. There is an earthquake in the place. This is clearly what Gongsheng named Zhang could have predicted. He can really spy on the secrets of heaven, and every situation is unpredictable." can be controlled by him"
The person who spoke this time was Yuan Shouzhi, the general envoy.
Yuan Shouzhi deliberately said loudly before the ministers had left the Meridian Gate. He said this so that all the ministers present could hear it.
Tu Fu went over and reminded him in a low voice, which probably meant that we should talk about it on the way out of the palace.
Because Zhang Zhou was targeting Zhang Yanling and Zhang family relatives this time, the ministers were not as resistant as before.
"Mr. Liu Ge, what can I say?" A group of people came out of the Meridian Gate. Liu Jian and Xie Qian were still surrounded.
This moment showed the disadvantage of Li Dongyang's absence. If Li Dongyang was there, Li Dongyang could come out to set the scene without Liu Jian's words.
Xie Qian usually laughs and curses so much that he can't be strong in front of others.
Liu Jiandao said, "If something happens, it's not too late to fix the situation. I just hope God can do it." It is better not to vent your anger on the people. ”
It means that if the earthquake is relatively mild and only shakes a few times, then for meThey are a good thing.
The emperor knew God's warning to him and punished Zhang Yanling. Even if someone breaks out of the court's framework and gives the emperor advice from alchemists, there will be no loss for us.
“Yes”
This time Tu Fu came out and said, “The people are at peace, the court is at peace, and we can also feel at ease. Everyone, please don’t talk too much, just Let's wait and see if this happens in the next few days."
Yuan Shouzhi emerged from the crowd again and asked, "The earthquake has been true over and over again since ancient times. , I have never heard of it."
Liu Jian also shook his head and said nothing to this group of people.
According to common sense, it is indeed impossible for people to know about earthquakes in advance, let alone to be predicted repeatedly. However, some people dare to predict it, and they can always predict it. Who can reason?
Isolated evidence does not stand up, but is it an isolated evidence now?
Even Liu Jian began to doubt whether this Bingkuan really has great supernatural powers
This kind of person is not aggressive.
The path Liu Jian and Xie Qian want to take is different from these people. < /p>
Xie Qian can see it now.
The combined influence of the ministers may not be as great as that of Zhang Zhou alone.
"Yu Qiao, what do you think?"
Liu Jian asked.
Rong, if you are not partial for a while, how can you be impartial in everything? If this continues, or the subjects only think of Zhang Zhou and do not know the court, they should be curbed."
"How to curb it. "Liu Jian asked another question that was like soul torture.
Xie Qian was startled.
He could see from Liu Jian's reaction that his intention was to limit it as much as possible.
As the first assistant, Liu Jian probably wanted to completely "control" Zhang Zhou and strangle Zhang Zhou's career. Please remember to bookmark, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
