I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

"Lu Fang, have you ever heard the saying, "The Ze of a Gentleman, beheaded for five lifetimes?"

As soon as Jiajing's words fell, Lu Fang understood what the emperor wanted to express, and said to herself, "It seems that His Majesty wants to use this opportunity to take those families out for surgery!"

Thinking of this, Lu Fang's expression became more and more respectful. Immediately, he came back to his senses and advised Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to care about the rest of the families. The key point is that the Kong family, after all, is the descendant of Duke Yan Sheng. The fierce opposition from the courtiers, after all..."

Lu Fang didn't continue talking, because he knew that Jiajing understood what he meant.

Jiajing seemed to see what Lu Fang was thinking, shook his head, and immediately explained.

"Lu Fang, I know what you mean. This matter must be done with caution. Before I am fully prepared, I will not take it lightly!"

"However, before that, you can take advantage of the opportunity to cut off some of the Kong family's wings."

When Jiajing said this, he paused for a moment, a sneer appeared on his face, and he continued to add.

"Heh, what Tongtian family tree, I am the only heaven in Daming!"

When Lu Fang heard Jiajing's words, she immediately responded, "Your Majesty, you are the only heaven in Ming Dynasty!"

After that, after Lu Fang finished deliberating the language in his mind, he immediately stepped forward and asked Jiajing.

"May I ask Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with this matter next?"

Jiajing seemed to have expected that Lu Fang would ask this question a long time ago, and after glancing at Lu Fang, he immediately spoke unhurriedly.

"I plan to let Hai Rui follow this clue to continue the investigation. No matter who is involved in the process, they will be killed together!"

When Jiajing said this, as if he suddenly remembered something, after looking Lu Fang up and down, he spoke excitedly.

"By the way, Lu Fang, I remember, aren't you still worrying about what to write in the second issue of the newspaper? Why don't you write about it?"

After being reminded by Jiajing, Lu Fang also reacted quickly, and after hesitating for a long time, she cautiously confirmed to Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, what you mean is that the next newspaper published by the imperial court is for the Kong family..."

Jiajing nodded when he heard the words, and immediately gave instructions.

"Well, that's right, that's what I mean, Lu Fang, you don't have to worry, even if you act boldly, in the end, they are just a group of people who rely on the glory of their ancestors, ride on the heads of the people, and domineering It's just insects!"

After Jiajing said this sentence, he realized it belatedly and continued to add.

"No, they are not even as good as insects. They have never made any contribution to Jiangshan Sheji or Liming people. The only thing they are good at is surrendering and standing in line!"

"Now, they actually dare to collude with the White Lotus Sect recklessly, heh, I'm really impatient!"

Lu Fang deeply agreed with Jiajing's words, because even though he racked his brains and searched countless characters in his mind, he still didn't see the shadow of the seven families mentioned above.

Just as Lu Fang was still thinking hard about this, the voice of Jiajing's ancient well without waves rang in Lu Fang's ears again.

"By the way, Lu Fang, when the time comes, another team of Jin Yiwei will be dispatched to assist Hai Rui in investigating the case. Do you understand?"

When Lu Fang heard this, his face immediately turned serious, and he replied respectfully.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After that, Jiajing looked away from Lu Fang and gave instructions instead.

"Study ink for me, I will write a reply letter to Hai Rui!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

When Lu Fang heard this, she immediately stepped forward and studied ink for Jiajing.

After Lu Fang finished researching the ink, Jiajing spread out the pen and paper, and began to write a reply.

"I already know what Aiqing said in the letter. No matter who is involved behind it, let me find out to the end. I will be your most solid backing!"

After Jiajing finished writing this sentence, he thought for a moment before continuing to write.

"Besides, I also sent an additional team of Jinyi Guards to Shandong to assist you in investigating the case. In addition..."

When the last word fell, Jiajing breathed a sigh of relief, and then checked it carefully from beginning to end. After confirming that it was correct, he put the brush in his hand back to its original position.

After the ink on the letter was dry, Jiajing put it in an envelope, immediately called Lu Fang, handed the envelope to him, and gave instructions.

"Lu Fang, Jin Yiwei, who will be dispatched to Shandong at that time, should take this letter with me!"

When Lu Fang heard the words, his expression immediately turned serious, and he said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After that, Lu Fang did not stay in Qianqing Palace for too long, but turned and left.

……

Capital City, Prince Yu's Mansion.

On the same day, after being on duty, Xu Jie summoned Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng to Prince Yu's Mansion to discuss the next countermeasures.

In the study room, Yu Wang Zhu Zaiyi spoke first, breaking the calm, only to see that he turned his gaze to Xu Jie, his face was full of worry.

"By the way, Mr. Xu Ge, since the incident last time, have the group of officials restrained themselves a bit?"

Hearing this, Xu Jie got up from his seat, bowed his hands to Zhu Zaixi, and said respectfully.

"Thanks to His Highness's concern, those speech officials have completely died down, and they have not submitted impeachment memorials to the Procuratorate!"

"Not only that, the cabinet also dealt with more than half of the officials who were impeached by the supervisory censor Zhao Zhenji according to the list provided by the censor!"

When Zhu Zaixi heard Xu Jie mention Zhao Zhenji's name, he couldn't help but became interested. He suppressed all the chaotic thoughts in his heart and asked Xu Jie tentatively.

"Mr. Xu Ge, this Zhao Zhenji holds an important position and has dealt with us so many times. Do you think it is possible to bring him to our side?"

As soon as Zhu Zaidi's words fell, Xu Jie responded without thinking: "Your Highness, if it were someone else, there is still a slight possibility, but this Zhao Zhenji is absolutely impossible!"

Zhu Zaixi was quite puzzled by Xu Jie's answer, couldn't restrain his curiosity, and immediately asked.

"Old Xu Ge, what do you mean by these words? Could it be that this Zhao Zhenji is difficult to deal with?"

Hearing the words, Gao Gong on the side sighed helplessly, and immediately explained.

"Oh, Your Highness, you don't know. This Zhao Zhenji is in the court, but he has the title of "non-stick pan". He is extremely good at protecting himself wisely. How could he take such a big risk to join us?"

When Gao Gong's voice fell, Zhang Juzheng at the side followed closely and said in harmony.

"Your Highness, I have dealt with this Zhao Zhenji before. This person is extremely intelligent and has strong observation skills. He is also a good hand in handling things. He can be called one of the few competent officials in the Ming Dynasty!"

"But this person cherishes his feathers too much. It is said that last time, he saw that the situation was not right, so he resolutely reported illness and stayed at home. He didn't return to serve in the Inspectorate until the situation became clearer!"

After listening to everyone's evaluation of Zhao Zhenji, Zhu Zaiku's eyes dimmed, and he gave up the idea of ​​recruiting Zhao Zhenji.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was somewhat dull, Xu Jie stood up and changed the subject: "By the way, in a month or two, the mulberry seedlings in Zhejiang will officially mature, and the imperial court will also start to mature." In the hands of those mulberry farmers, a large amount of raw silk was purchased."

When Xu Jie said this, he paused for a moment, and after looking around, he continued.

"What do you guys think about this?"

As soon as Xu Jie said this, the room suddenly fell into silence.

Although Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng on the side knew what Xu Jie wanted to express, they didn't intend to speak at this moment and just kept silent.

I don't know how much time passed, but finally, Zhu Zaixi stood up, turned his gaze to Xu Jie, and said hesitantly.

"Old Xu Ge means that we can do something with it?" (End of this chapter)
