Jinyi champion

Facing Zhu Hao's words, Xu Jie didn't care.

he thought.

Do you think Jin Yiwei will go to the Zhang family brothers to gossip like you thought?Isn't Jin Yiwei afraid of causing trouble?They also reported each other...

Could it be that the Zhang brothers are really stupid enough to kill each other?The second child reported to the boss, maybe it was ordered by the queen mother, or there was some clever strategy behind it.

What Xu Jie didn't know was that Jin Yiwei's actions were all under Zhu Hao's orders, so naturally what Zhu Hao said would be what he said.

On the second day, a report about the two brothers reporting each other was passed to the palace.

Queen Mother Zhang was very angry when she learned about it, and immediately sent someone to call Zhu Si to reprimand her son.

"...Emperor, you said that you want to solve this trouble for Ai's family, and you also need to help your two uncles get rid of the crime. Why do you let them expose each other's faults when things come to an end? Brothers are at odds, not for the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty to see." Is it a joke? How did the person sent to investigate the case do things? Didn’t they deliberately disturb the water?”

After all, Queen Mother Zhang sent someone to supervise and question the case.

Under Zhu Hao's "step-by-step temptation", Zhang Yanling first exposed Zhang Heling, which was also witnessed by the young eunuch sent by the Queen Mother Zhang, so after the young eunuch returned to the palace, he did not speak well of Zhu Hao in front of the Queen Mother Zhang.

Even when Yang Tinghe left, he didn't know that Zhu Hao was his hidden opponent, and Jiang Mian and others never thought that Zhu Hao was the one who threatened them the most.

In Sun Jiao's study.

cabinet.

Now they unanimously feel sorry for Zhu Hao.

Liu Chun directly expressed his doubts.

In this way, Zhu Hao completely broke away from the label of the Xinhuang faction, which is tantamount to returning to the side of the civil servant faction. Although the civil servant faction doesn't care about him now, and no one even takes the initiative to win him over, Zhu Hao's performance of this scene is equivalent to It is a return to the previous state of being an invisible person in the court.

Empress Dowager Zhang was very angry at first, but she is a cowardly woman, especially now that she can see that this step-son seems to be gradually losing control.

But since it said three days, then report after three days.

Zhu Sidao: "Remember, I will send someone to punish! But we have to wait for him to finish the trial."

The Zhang family's case needs to be resolved within three days...

Liu Chun was puzzled when he received the imperial edict about reprimanding Zhu Hao.

But at this moment, the emperor suddenly issued an order, reprimanding Zhu Hao who handled the case with ulterior motives, which hurt the nobleman's dignity, and ordered Zhu Hao to report the result of the case within three days, and if he failed, he would be fined. .

Sulking with this son?The results of it?Will you never see your son again?
If Empress Dowager Zhang was a woman who could discipline her son, and a sister who could discipline her younger brother, she wouldn't have a lawless son like Zhu Houzhao become emperor, and the Zhang family brothers wouldn't have been doing evil in the court all the time!
"Then you... treat them kindly."

……

Now I just sit down occasionally to discuss some things, many of which are not related to court affairs, and Liu Chun will not discuss with Sun Jiao the things he encountered in the cabinet.

……

Su Xigui sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhu Hao. The letter was sent by shopkeeper Ma. The letter only briefly mentioned that something had been negotiated with Huang Zan.

Didn't it mean that this little friend of the Zhu family is a close ally of the emperor?Why did the emperor still dig pits to harm his own people?What is this number?
As for Jiang Mian and others, they couldn't help but feel a little pity after seeing it.

Liu Chun still didn't want to have a close relationship with Sun.

"Uh……"

Empress Dowager Zhang said urgently: "Then you release him quickly!"

After leaving the cabinet to be on duty, Liu Chun left the palace and went to Sun Jiao's mansion that night.

Zhu Sidao: "I am just maintaining the integrity of the Ming court. I believe that my ancestors also hope that I will not disappoint their expectations. Please forgive me, Queen Mother. I can only promise that I will not kill them, and I will not punish them too much. I just let them absorb it." Lesson learned, I can work for Daming with peace of mind in the future... even I can keep their titles."

How could an emperor who was determined to fight for the fame and position of his biological parents and to get rid of the identity of his step-son all the time think of this step-mother?He was very polite to Empress Dowager Zhang before, but he was afraid of losing the throne.

Yang Yiqing was indifferent to whether he would return to the court or not, or even whether he would enter the cabinet, because Liu Chun always felt that he might retreat at any time.

"This……"

Liu Chun was a little emotional.

But now Sun Jiao is already a leader among civil servants who can challenge Jiang Mian, and as Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Sun Jiao is more on the executive level and needs to have more contact with decision-makers. who?
"inappropriate."

"Zhenjiang?"

Jiang Mian said: "It seems that after this incident, it will be difficult for Jingdao to gain a foothold in the court. It is better to let him go to the local area to practice earlier, whether it is to go to Nanjing, or to the local chief envoy, it is worse than always. In court."

According to his will, the emperor will agree no matter how he reports, this is the strength of being a powerful minister, and now this powerful minister is still so "inconspicuous".

……

Empress Dowager Zhang was very angry and asked, "Who is going to ask about the case?"

Now that Empress Dowager Zhang's ally Yang Tinghe has already left, with the power of Empress Dowager Zhang alone, it is not easy to depose him?What's more, he has a capable person like Zhu Hao to help him.

There is someone who comes out to take the blame, even if this person is a white lotus, if you say he is black, he is black.

Sun Jiaodao: "If this is not the case, if there is any problem, you and I will exchange news, don't worry about being told that you and I are too close, in fact, there is no problem with the ministers of the court and China. If there is a big trouble, the old man will leave as soon as he wants. , there is nothing to be attached to in this court. I will try my best to inform you about respecting Dao when I know about it.”

At this juncture.

"It's really courageous to instigate the two marquises to expose each other. He doesn't want to be an official anymore! Emperor, you should punish him well, and you can't let such a courtier with ulterior motives stay in the court and run amok!" Queen Mother Zhang Now I don't care in detail whether Zhu Hao is secretly instigating or not.

Zhu Sidao: "Queen Mother, everything is business-like. The two uncles have reported each other. I really can't stop it. I have been suppressing this matter and have not made it public."

What else?

Sun Jiao asked, "Did the cabinet hear any news about Zhenjiang?"

"Are you going to punish your two uncles? You really... have made Aijia so sad!" Empress Dowager Zhang expressed disappointment, wanting to put some pressure on her son.

Zhu Sidao: "Don't worry, Queen Mother. This incident was also caused by the two uncles exposing each other. The person who went to question the case may be suspected of instigating it. I will let the two uncles be fine!"

Since Liu Chun doesn't want to be deeply bound with him, Sun Jiao can only say half of what he has to say.

Sun Jiao raised his head and said: "It's all come to this point, there is nothing to hide... Your Majesty asked Jing Dao to investigate the case, probably Jing Dao took the initiative to ask, and any results in the investigation were carefully designed by the two of you. It is a waste of time to ponder their intentions, it is better to wait until the matter is over, and then think about it... Your Majesty and Jingdao always have a clear purpose when doing things, don't be fooled by temporary appearances."

Sun Jiao didn't force it, nodded and said: "Then you will come to my house more often in the future, and don't ask about the Zhang family's affairs. It may be a good thing for Jingdao to be reprimanded by His Majesty for a while. Keep a certain distance from His Majesty. On the contrary, it will help his official career. Just rest assured!"

Liu Chun did not expect that until now, Sun Jiao still believed that the new emperor and Zhu Hao were in the same group.

……

Sun Jiao was immersed in writing, and seemed not in the mood to listen to what Liu Chun had to say. When Liu Chun finished his long speech, Sun Jiao said, "Let them go."

Zhu Hao was reprimanded by decree, which was obviously used by the emperor.

Sun Jiaodao: "The envoys sent by His Majesty have visited the gate of Yang Yingning's residence many times, and even proposed the details of Yang Yingning's return to the court in detail. Wouldn't the cabinet be ignorant of this?"

……

……

Zhu Si replied with a serious face: "It is the champion of the previous session, named Zhu Hao, and he is now a doctor of the Ministry of Punishment."

The time sounds rushed, but in fact, for Zhu Hao, let alone three days, one day is too much.

Zhu Si can be regarded as hardened now.

The Zhang family brothers exposed each other, which is tantamount to letting the court and even the common people see the Zhang family brothers' faces clearly. It's just that this incident may be out of order, and the emperor had to issue an order to reprimand Zhu Hao who handled the case, Zhu Hao To be condemned is to suffer an innocent disaster.

Sun Jiao wanted to establish a further alliance with him.

Mao Ji and Fei Hong agreed with Jiang Mian's words, and they all nodded, only Liu Chun did not comment.

The Zhang family brothers exposed each other, and it was a big joke in the court.

Zhu Si firmly said: "The matter has come to such a point, I am afraid that letting him go will make the court lose face, and I have to punish the two uncles in order to reassure people's hearts."

In the eyes of ordinary ministers, this seemed like a trap. The emperor dug a hole long ago to find an unlucky person to jump into, and Zhu Hao was the one who threw himself into the abyss.

When Zhu Si said that even the title could be preserved by letting the two younger brothers learn a lesson, Empress Dowager Zhang didn't seem to think it was a big deal.

Liu Chun understood.

But now Zhu Si doesn't care what Queen Mother Zhang thinks of him.

Liu Chun obviously didn't know.

Liu Chundao: "What does Zhitong mean by that?"

Empress Dowager Zhang finally said pitifully.

In fact, it was to tell Zhu Hao that Huang Zan agreed with Zhu Hao's proposal about joining the cabinet.

Huang Zan may also be disappointed in the officialdom. He only seeks fame, not higher power. For Huang Zan, joining the cabinet is the best and most honorable choice to move forward.

Although Zhu Hao also made it clear to Su Xigui that Huang Zan would retire within a few months at most after joining the cabinet, Huang Zan still made this choice.

"Little master, Master Su also said that as long as the matter is completed, 10 taels of silver will be given, and it will be placed on the bank account or the account of the mine, and you can use it at any time."

It is equivalent to 10 taels of silver, and I bought an official position as an old man.
