Zhang Ye originally wanted to use the majesty of his elder brother and clan elders to suppress Zhang Zhou.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhou came up and threatened him.
He was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush towards Zhang Zhou. He really wanted to experience the feeling of "eldest brother as father", but before he could get close to Zhang Zhou, Sun Shangqi stepped forward and stopped him.
"Who are you?"
Zhang Ye originally wanted to threaten him, but his body was weak and he staggered and almost fell down after being pushed slightly by Sun Shangqi.
"Second brother, you are quite capable. If you dare to attack your brother, believe it or not. When I go back, I will tell the neighbors that you are unfilial. Aren't you a juren? Juren are all face-loving, so your reputation will be ruined."
Zhang Ye seems to think he has a trump card and is making a fuss about Zhang Zhou's reputation.
Zhang Ye stared at the elders of the Zhang family who were brought next to him and asked, "Guys, I want to change my brother's citizenship. Do you have the qualifications to do so?"
The one who was called " The old man, "Third Uncle", came out and stroked his beard and said, "As an elder brother, of course it's okay."
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "Someone, I didn't plan to do anything to you, but since you said that. , it seems that we should find someone to send you back to Nanjing to prevent you from causing trouble in the capital."
"What are you going to do?"
Zhang Ye stared at Zhang Zhou.
Xiao Jing, who was next to him, stepped forward and said, "Our family can handle this little thing for you."
"Which of you is going to teach your younger brother, you old hermaphrodite?" , get out of here."
As soon as Zhang Ye said these words, the surrounding Jin Yiwei immediately pulled out a bunch of swords.
This scene did not make Zhang Ye timid, but it made several old guys who followed Zhang Ye involuntarily back away from the thugs hired by Zhang Ye.
We are just here to be witnesses, how can our lives be in danger?
Zhang Zhou said apologetically, "Eunuch Xiao, he didn't know your identity and made offensive remarks. I will speak for him." Please apologize."
"Eunuch, you are right." Zhang Ye still didn't know how to write the word "death".
Perhaps in his eyes, eunuchs are just like the old eunuchs in charge of procurement in the palace of Nanjing City. They usually keep a low profile and dare not make public. They are afraid of people and trouble.
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "Someone, let me introduce to you. This is Eunuch Bingbi, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and Eunuch Xiao Jing, the Admiral of Dongchang. He is also commonly known as the Factory Gong of Dongchang."
"Uh"
Zhang Ye was startled and took two steps back involuntarily.
"I know what you are here for, so you don't have to talk about it. The family is divided. You and I have nothing to do with each other. You can't find the fault of me betraying my ancestors and forgetting my ancestors. You want to expel me." It's not that easy to leave the Zhang family, but I will drive you out and even take out the family property left by your ancestors. Haha, Eunuch Xiao, it shouldn't be difficult," Zhang Zhou deliberately asked Xiao Jing who was standing aside.
Xiao Jingben was still angry at the ignorant Zhang Ye. Hearing this, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "If Mr. Zhang gives orders, it's just a matter of words."
"Third Uncle" Listen, he hurriedly said to Zhang Ye, "grandnephew, you guysWe can’t take care of family matters. We have to go back to Nanjing quickly and find the car and boat."
"Yes, yes, yes. "The few people nearby who were supporting the scene stopped doing it.
This is not a personnel matter.
They said they were coming to reason, but when the other party came up, a Dongchang factory man ran out. There were a lot of guards with swords standing nearby. Not to mention being irrational, even if the reasoning was convincing, there was no way to do anything.
Zhang Ye shouted, "Second brother, you are trying to bully others."
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "No, why don't we go to Yingtian Mansion with Shuntian Mansion? I am quite familiar with Wu Fuyin from Yingtian Mansion."
Hearing this, then Several people didn't bother to ask Zhang Ye for the return fare, or even if they wanted to ask for it, they were not in a hurry. They quickly picked up their clothes and walked to the street.
"You wait"
Zhang Ye saw that the situation was not right. He was trying to show off his words, but he was very honest with his feet.
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "Someone, I advise you to return to Nanjing quickly, if you let me see you again." You, I'll find someone to send you away. I am now a member of Qianhu Jinyiwei, and it is easy to teach you a lesson."
"You grow up to be disrespectful and rebellious"
Zhang Ye cursed and ran away with his men.
"Who are these people? "Seeing the person leaving, Xiao Jing couldn't help but frown and say something.
The previous sentence of "hermaphrodite" obviously hurt him.
Zhang Zhou sighed, "A small door and a small household. , the most important thing is that the elders and younger ones are in order, I hope Eunuch Xiao won't mind. "
"It's okay. "Even if Xiao Jing minded, he didn't dare to tell Zhang Zhou directly.
Then someone came over and said something in Xiao Jing's ear. Xiao Jing was shocked and said, "Seriously"
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "If Eunuch Xiao has something to do, don't bother me much.
Xiao Jing asked, "Mr. Zhang, something happened. I just learned that the household department reported to Zhonghua Chang that there was a question in this session, or that it involved you." On the body. "
"I" Zhang Zhou frowned and pretended to be surprised.
But in fact he was not surprised.
Since it is a question, the gun Being the first to do so, the scholars outside will definitely make a fuss about his flamboyant Jiangnan Jieyuan.
Xiao Jing said, "What else can you say? You can find someone outside to ask about the exam questions and learn about them in advance." He also said that we don’t know the details of the relationship between you and Master Cheng. We probably need to go back to the palace first. ”
“Oh, please.” "Zhang Zhou wanted to see Xiao Jing off.
Xiao Jing said, "Mr. Zhang should not go to Xishan now. He should stay in the capital and wait until the matter is over before leaving. Don't worry, others don't dare to say that you will never be involved in this case, and His Majesty will give you justice. ”
Zhang Zhou nodded with a smile.
I was thinking, is justice so good? In the vend case, the emperor is not enough to protect Cheng Minzheng. The result is that there is no evidence. It can torture people to death.
Zhang Zhou said: "People's words are terrible, if you have to speak to others.There is nothing I can do about trying to think of some things. In fact, I don't mind and have a discussion with them. ”
“On a theory”
Xiao Jing wanted to ask, what to discuss
But Zhang Zhou then laughed and said nothing and stopped doing it. Many explanations.
In the palace,
Zhu Youtang was furious. He almost asked someone to arrest Hua Chang and interrogate him. No.
"Even if it involves Cheng Minzheng, he still wants to frame Bingkuan. Is it because all the scholars in the world don't distinguish between right and wrong, or is he an official who doesn't even understand the most basic ethics and integrity?"
Zhu Youtang was furious.
Dai Yi hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, perhaps the civil servants have misunderstood Cheng and Mr. Zhang out of thin air. "
"Has Xiao Jing come back? Let Dongchang go get the people?"
Zhu Youtang is still pressing.
Dai Yidao "has been sent. I went to call him, and he was expected to return to the palace soon. Your Majesty, this person may have just sorted out some rumors among the people and reported them. If he is directly questioned, will it make the ministers of the DPRK dissatisfied?"
Zhu Youtang patted the table and said, "I am doing my job, but also If you want to be coerced by those ministers all the time, if you have to listen to them in everything, then what else will I, the emperor, do?"
"But Your Majesty, if you arrest someone rashly, it will intensify the conflict, I'm afraid It will be detrimental to the reputation of Mr. Zhang and Bachelor Cheng. ”
Dai Yi was actually very loyal to Zhu Youtang. Even though he knew that the emperor didn’t like to hear it, he still had to remind him.
To arrest Hua Chang directly now would be tantamount to This is to give excuses to those scholars. They are already making trouble. They may go directly to the crying temple thing and make the government and the public uneasy.
The first priority is to calm public opinion.
After a long time, Xiao Jing came back.
Zhu Youtang seemed not as angry as before.
Xiao Jing first gave a brief summary of the process of his meeting with Zhang Zhou. , and even talked about brother Zhang Zhou coming to make trouble, but the emperor obviously had no intention of listening to these things about sesame seeds and rotten millet. He was now thinking about how to deal with Hua Chang, and also make those civil servants calm down, and make the scholars no longer Discussion.
"There is something, you say. "Zhu Youtang gestured to Dai Yi.
Dai Yidao said, "I have asked you to tell you the general situation before. Except for Mr. Zhang and Bachelor Cheng, the people who were involved in the impeachment of Hu Ke were Zhonghua Chang. , and Tang Yin and Xu Jing, who accused the three of them of being in trouble and openly discussed the exam questions. His Majesty wants Dongchang to conduct a thorough investigation.
Xiao Jing reminded, "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang and Tang Yin have never dealt with each other. They still have a bet. How can they discuss exam questions together? This is false talk." "
Dai Yi winked at Xiao Jing, meaning, what's the use of saying this now?
Hurry and investigate first, find out everything, and explain to the courtiers later. , then nothing will happen
"I will ask someone to inquire. " Xiao Jing said.
"Wait a minute." Zhu Youtang said, "You mean, Bingkuan was also present when you learned the news. What did he say?"
Xiao Jing was startled.
This is to ask, how does Zhang Zhou evaluate the issue of vending?
"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang predicted that this would happen a long time ago." Xiao Jing said.
Zhu Youtang added, "I'm just asking, what did he think when he heard that he was involved in it today?"
Xiao Jing tried his best to recall, and then he thought of something and said, "Mr. Zhang He said that people's words are scary, and he also said that if possible, he would like to discuss it with those people. The servant did not understand what he meant, so he avoided talking to him again."
Zhu Youtang Weiwei. Nodding, as if thinking about the meaning of Zhang Zhou's words, he said, "Yes, this is unreasonable. No matter what Cheng Minzheng's personal ethics is, or whether he is suspected, Bingkuan cannot be involved in it anyway. He is the most First of all, I would like to remind you that Cheng Minzheng is criticized for being good at making friends with scholars. He also mentioned that he would not meet Cheng Minzheng before the examination, so how could there be any mention of him?"
Just say.
I don’t care too much about whether Cheng Minzheng, Tang Yin, and Xu Jing are good or not, and whether they will be convicted.
I am angry because someone is trying to pin the blame on Zhang Zhou.
Zhang Zhou was the first to use his secrets to figure this out, and he also tried to avoid being involved in this matter from the beginning to the end. In the end, you still accuse him unjustly.
Sincerely, you can’t get along with me, right?
Xiao Jing said, “Your Majesty clearly understands that this is exactly the reason why Mr. Zhang has not formally visited Bachelor Process since he entered Beijing. On the contrary, Yidong Factory Check, when Xu Jing and Tang Yin arrived in the capital, they went to visit Cheng Shixue's house."
"Yes." Zhu Youtang nodded, "In that case, we will meet at Fengtian Hall tomorrow. Ascended to the palace, summoned Hua Chang and his so-called witness, and then asked Bingkuan to confront him. "Please remember to bookmark, the latest and fastest anti-theft free reading
