Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

On this day, Chu Ze was reviewing official documents in the study, and Zhao Si hurriedly broke in.

"Prince Qi, it's not good! People from the Zhang family came to the Yamen to report the case. They asked our Yamen why they arrested the people from the Zhang family. Let us release them immediately, or else we will go to Beijing to file a complaint!"

When he heard the word "Zhang Mansion", Chu Ze's face suddenly darkened.

"Damn, the ghost is really lingering!"

Zhao Si asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, how should we deal with it now?" Chu Ze pondered for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said: "Right now, Li Xing's reinforcements have not arrived yet, and we are simply unable to resist them. We can only endure it for a while to fight for ourselves. time."

"Zhang Hongru, an old thief, dares to collude with the remnants of the previous dynasty. His heart is to be punished!"

"It's just that right now we are unable to compete head-on, so we can only hide our capabilities and bide our time and make plans secretly."

He sighed, rubbed his temples, and forced himself to calm down.

"Chu Ze, you can't mess up at this point!"

He warned himself silently in his heart, and his eyes gradually became firm.

There was a glint in his eyes and he said: "You go and deal with it, just say that we are investigating the case and we will let you know as soon as we have any clues. In short, we must delay as long as we can, and we must not make them suspicious!" "No!" Zhao Si took the order and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Chu Ze stopped him and lowered his voice: "I'd better go with you."

Chu Ze took Zhao Si to the county government hall and decided to meet with everyone in the Zhang family.

At this time, a noisy quarrel came from the lobby.

"Your county government has gone too far! How dare you arrest people from my Zhang family for no reason!"

A frantic voice came from far away, giving off an aggressive tone.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Chu Ze's lips. He knew that people from the Zhang family were here to investigate.

"Just in time."

There was a glint in his eyes and he walked quickly to the lobby.

"Where did this wild boy come from to act wild in front of this king?"

Chu Ze strode to the lobby and asked in a deep voice.

I saw a young man in gorgeous clothes shouting with arrogance.

"Hmph, little citizen Zhang Yuan has met Prince Chu!"

The young man glanced at Chu Ze with disdain and said sarcastically:

"May I ask, Your Majesty, why did your county government arrest my subordinates from the Zhang Mansion without any reason?"

"It's just too much bullying, and it's so disrespectful of people's lives!"

He pointed at the noses of all the government officials and cursed fiercely.

Chu Ze narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him coldly.

"It turns out to be the young master of the Zhang family. That's disrespectful."

His tone was cold and he retorted unceremoniously:
"Those scoundrels are spreading rumors and slandering pesticides in an attempt to create unrest. They have already confessed."

"Isn't this considered an arrest without reason?"

When the young master of the Zhang family heard this, his expression changed slightly.

"Why are you spreading rumors to cause trouble? Why didn't I know?"

He forced himself to calm down and said harshly: "You must have framed me! My Zhang family has always been loyal and loyal, and I will never do such despicable things!"

"Zhongliang? Hehe, everyone in the neighborhood knows that your Zhang family is the best at hoarding, and you often take advantage of local disasters to make money for the country!"

Chu Ze sneered again and again, giving him no chance to defend himself.

"If you still don't tell me honestly, who ordered you to deliberately ruin the reputation of our pesticides?"

When the young master of the Zhang Mansion heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"So that's it. He just thinks that we are hoarding money and it is difficult for the country to make money." "It seems that he still doesn't know the truth about our collusion with the previous government. This is the most important thing."

Thinking of this, he felt slightly relieved, but he refused to give in.

"That's sheer nonsense! How could I, the majestic young master of the Zhang Mansion, do such a nasty thing?"

He retorted confidently and without any acknowledgment.

"Since you insist on making excuses, I have nothing to say."

Chu Ze snorted coldly and issued an order to expel guests:
"Come here, see the guests off!"

"I will let you go today, and I will settle this account next time!"

The young master of the Zhang Mansion said a harsh word bitterly, and everyone in the Zhang Mansion walked away in disgrace under the "escort" of several guards.

Chu Ze looked at his leaving figure with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

"This kid is quite good at putting on airs."

"It's a pity that no matter how much you pretend, you can't hide the truth that the Zhang family colluded with the previous dynasty."

He sneered secretly in his heart, turned around and told Zhao Si:
"Although this guy is tough-talking, looking at his guilty look, he is probably afraid that we will find out what they are doing."

"You must send more manpower and continue to secretly monitor the Zhang Mansion. Don't let go of any clues!"

"No!" Zhao Si accepted the order, and then asked: "Your Majesty, if there is any sudden change in Zhang Mansion, how should we respond?"

Chu Ze pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "Since the Zhang family has become anxious, it is very likely that they will take risks."

"You must be vigilant and be prepared. If there is any trouble, report it to me immediately."

"I understand!" Zhao Si nodded in agreement, then stopped talking.

"Your Majesty, if we keep delaying like this, won't we play into their hands?"

"Don't worry." Chu Ze reassured: "Li Xing's reinforcements must be on the way, we just need to be patient for a while longer."

"As soon as they arrive, I will be able to defeat the Zhang Mansion in one fell swoop and find out the mastermind behind it!"

His eyes shone with determination and confidence.

On the other side, the young master of the Zhang Mansion, who was choked by Chu Ze, returned to the house in disgrace.

"Dad, something is not good!" He rushed into the study with an anxious look.

"What? Can't you even protect a few of your subordinates?"

Zhang Hongru asked with a frown.

"No!" The young master shook his head and said, "The man surnamed Chu refused to let him go at all. He also said that we were hoarding people and making it difficult for the country to make money. This is simply nonsense!"

"Hmph, you don't know how to praise me!" Zhang Hongru shouted angrily, and then asked nervously: "Did he mention anything else?"

The young master naturally understood what his father was referring to and quickly replied: "No. Judging from his appearance, it seems that he still doesn't know about our collusion with the previous dynasty."

"That's good." Zhang Hongru breathed a sigh of relief, and then said gloomily:

"A prince in name only can be so arrogant! It seems that this kid won't shed tears until he sees the coffin!"

He punched the table angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "No! We must get rid of him as soon as possible to avoid long nights and nightmares!"

"Wait a minute, our plan cannot change."

Zhang Cheng slowly walked out of the shadows with a strange smile on his face.

It turns out that he was the driving force behind this incident. Emperor Yuan's newly appointed King of Wei, and the Zhang Mansion was his hidden force in the Ming Dynasty.

He said solemnly: "We still need to send more people to spread rumors, saying that the government will poison the pesticide and kill the people."

"When the time comes, encourage them to attack the county government and create chaos." (End of Chapter)
