The Most Powerful Man in the World

But now the two teams are swarming in and breaking into the mansion.

If it is not true that the evidence of the crime is conclusive, and the emperor has made up his mind to punish, no one dares to bring people into the Zhang residence.

In the Zhang Mansion, as the group of fans entered the mansion, the deserted Zhang Mansion suddenly became noisy, and in the Zhang Mansion, except for Zhang Dun's relatives, there was no one else. .

Following Chu Yi's order, Lin Chong and Xu Ning led their subordinates to search the Zhang Mansion with a somewhat strange mood.

It's hard to imagine that the owner of the mansion personally asked someone to enter the mansion to search, but at the same time, he sat opposite the searcher and talked happily.

He heard Zhang Dun stroke his beard and said with a smile on his face: "I never thought that the Duke of Guangyang knew so much about the many areas involved in the reform of our new party, so I would like to ask the Duke of Guangyang to help Cai Jing in the future and continue to implement it. Reform policy."

Chu Yi raised his brows, although he had long known that Cai Jing had replaced Zhang Dun, Han Zhongyan and others with the name of promoting reform, but hearing Zhang Dun paving the way for Cai Jing at this moment felt rather strange.If Zhang Dun was told that the person he had chosen to uphold the New Deal would become a traitor in the future, would he slap him to death with a backhand slap?

Chapter seven hundred and fifty-fifth of the open frame [1 more]

Soon, two Fanzi came over carrying a box, and said to Chu Yi with a solemn expression: "Admiral, a box was found in Zhang Xiangfu's residence, all of which were ministers of the same court. A secret letter of communication."

Zhang Dun, who was sitting opposite Chu Yi, looked at the box with a calm expression, with a look of admiration in his eyes. The box was indeed something in his Zhang residence, but the contents in this box might not be.

Even an idiot can guess that this is just a tactic to frame the blame, but Zhang Dun has already prepared for this. If Chu Yi did not use such means, Zhang Dun would be very disappointed in Chu Yi.

Chu Yi looked at Zhang Dun calmly and said, "Oh, open it and take a look."

With a creak, the box was opened. Chu Yi took out one of the letters and slowly opened one of the letters. He raised his brows and said to Zhang Dun, "It seems that Zhang is very dissatisfied with Your Majesty."

Zhang Dun glanced at it and saw ten lines in one glance. In an instant, he read the contents of the letter, and he had to say that Chu Yi's forged letter was really like the real thing, and it was the first thing he saw. He subconsciously thought that this was a letter he had written.

Of course, what surprised Zhang Dun was Chu Yi's boldness. In order to find a reason for the emperor to bring him down, he even forged letters. The letters contained some dissatisfied and disrespectful words against the emperor.

If these words are said to be light, they are disrespectful to the emperor, but if they are said to be serious, they will be serious. This is resentment against the emperor and a conspiracy.

"Zhang Xiang, this letter is Zhang Xiang's handbook?"

Zhang Dun said indifferently: "Admiral said yes, so be it!"

Lin Chong on the side looked at Zhang Dun with a surprised look on his face, obviously not knowing why Zhang Dun would not refute.

Waving his hand, Chu Yi said to the crowd: "Take these things, let's go."

Chu Yi stood up, bowed his hands to Zhang Dun and said, "Zhang Xiang, Chu Mou is leaving now."

Watching Chu Yi leave, Han Zhongyan, who had not spoken much, couldn't help but look a little worried, his eyes were taken away from Chu Yi and his party, and he said to Zhang Dun: "Brother Zhang, this person framed you and his eyes are not clear. In the blink of an eye, there are such traitorous eunuchs and eunuchs around the emperor, I'm afraid it's a disaster rather than a blessing."

However, Zhang Dun, who was stroking his beard, shook his head and said, "It's not this person, but the Son of Heaven. If the Son of Heaven is the monarch of Shengming, then this person is a sharp knife in the hands of the Son of Heaven, cutting through thorns and thorns. If the emperor is ignorant, even if there is no Chu Yi, there will still be traitors like Zheng Yi and Zhu Yi."

With a slight sigh, Han Zhongyan said: "It's a pity that Your Majesty has a very deep prejudice against Brother Zhang, because he was busy fighting for power with the Empress Dowager, so he didn't spare his hands to target Brother Zhang. Now that the Empress Dowager is terminally ill, the emperor has enough power. Energy to deal with Brother Zhang..."

Zhang Dun said calmly: "The old man was destined to have today when he opposed the establishment of the emperor, and it doesn't matter what Chu Yi framed. What the emperor needs is just an excuse to belittle me."

It was because he realized this that Zhang Dun was indifferent to Chu Yi's frame-up, because no matter how he defended it, it would have no effect.

In the morning of the second day, Zhao Ji went to the court as usual, and saw an official step forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister impeaches Chu Yi, the admiral of Dongchang, for trespassing on the residence of the important officials of the court. It is not allowed to be opened, and please Your Majesty severely punish this scorpion, so as to calm your heart."

With a bang, several officials jumped out directly, all of whom impeached Chu Yi for trespassing on the minister's residence.

The reactions of these officials were normal. After all, in the Song Dynasty, the scholar-officials and the royal family shared the world. It can be said that the punishment of the officials could not be punished, and the real respect was incomparable.

However, now Chu Yi, a eunuch, can lead people straight to the prime minister's residence in a grand manner. Although everyone knows what is going on, the head cannot be opened. Otherwise, their life will not be so stable in the future. .

Suppressing eunuchs and military generals is a unified goal in the minds of scholars and officials. As long as this is involved, even the opposing sides will remain consistent.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhao Ji couldn't help frowning. Looking at the officials who impeached Chu Yi, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

Everything Chu Yi did was to act according to his will, and now these officials have come out to oppose it, in Zhao Ji's opinion, this is basically targeting him, the emperor.

Squinting his eyes, a thought came to Zhao Ji's mind. These officials were probably not in close contact with Zhang Dun.

Among these officials who jumped out to impeach Chu Yi, there are indeed some people who have close contacts with Zhang Dun, but most of them are not for Zhang Dun at all. When they came out, Zhao Ji marked them as Zhang Dun's comrades in his heart.

With this label on his body, he can imagine, but as long as Zhao Ji is in power for a day, there is no hope for their official career.

With a light cough, Zhao Ji said solemnly, "Send my will and summon Chu Yi, the Duke of Guangyang County, for an audience."

Chu Yi had already entered the palace and waited for the emperor's summons. Although he said that he did not know Zhao Ji, if Zhao Ji didn't even have this awareness, then he would not be able to sit firmly in the position of the emperor.

Soon Chu Yi appeared outside the hall, and a group of civil and military officials in the court subconsciously looked at Chu Yi.

For the sudden rise, firstly valued by the late emperor, and then known as the current confidant, everyone was really curious about Chu Yi.

Many officials even saw Chu Yi for the first time. When they saw Chu Yi now, they all showed surprise.

After all, in terms of appearance and temperament, Chu Yi looked more like a erudite scholar, and he didn't look like some kind of eunuch with a sinister mind at all.

"Chu Yi, Admiral of Dongchang, pays my respects."

Zhao Ji waved his hand slightly and said: "The Qing family is free from courtesy and flat, but I invited you to come here to ask you, why did you trespass on Zhang Xiang's mansion yesterday, don't you know that I have relied on and favored Zhang Xiang's?"

Seeing Zhao Ji's attitude of getting angry if Chu Yi couldn't come up with an explanation, the officials who had just impeached Chu Yi couldn't help showing a bit of satisfaction on their faces.

Chu Yi said sternly: "Your Majesty, this minister received a secret report, Zhang Xiangxiong harbored resentment against His Majesty, and privately colluded with a group of courtiers, his heart was wrong..."

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, you are framing it..."

Before Chu Yi finished speaking, an official jumped out and pointed at Chu Yi and cursed. Obviously, this person was a supporter of Zhang Dun.

Not only this official, but several other officials also glared at Chu Yi one by one, and they almost beat Chu Yi with a fist.

There was a commotion in the hall at the moment. After all, the gimmick that Chu Yi made when he opened his mouth was really amazing.

Rebellion, Chu Yi even opened his mouth and pointed at Zhang Dun for treason. If this crime is convicted, the consequences will be serious. Even if it is the practice of not punishing doctors in the Song Dynasty, it depends on the situation. .

It is not uncommon for the scholar-officials to be killed in the Song Dynasty every year.

Not to mention these officials, Zhao Ji, who didn't get the news in advance, couldn't help but stay for a while.His biggest purpose was to exile Zhang Dun.

Zhang Dun has a lot of prestige, even if he is not good at what to do with Zhang Dun, if he can exile him, Zhao Ji is very satisfied, and now it is good, Chu Yi came up and fired such a cannon for him.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Ji looked at Chu Yi and said, "Chu Yi, you know the seriousness of this matter. If there is no evidence, I will never forgive you for framing important officials of the court like this."

Chu Yi said calmly, "I have found a lot of letters on Zhang Xiang's mansion. The contents of the letters are quite astonishing. I did not dare to be slighted when I watched them, and specially ordered someone to bring those letters over."

After speaking, Chu Yi said in the direction of the hall: "Come here, bring the evidence."

Of course, as the emperor, Zhao Ji wouldn't let anyone in if he didn't nod his head.

After Zhao Ji nodded, the forbidden army guarding the hall immediately opened the door, and saw Lin Chong and Xu Ning carrying a box into the hall.

It was the first time that Lin Chong entered the courtroom, and the whole person seemed a little uncomfortable, but Xu Ning, because he was on duty in the palace, was very comfortable with the atmosphere in the palace, but he didn't show any nervousness.

The two put the box down, then bowed to the emperor, and respectfully stepped aside.

Standing beside the Son of Heaven, Liang Shicheng walked down the imperial steps to Chu Yi after being signaled by the Son of Heaven, and gave Chu Yi a strange look.

Liang Shicheng would make but full of jealousy towards Chu Yi.

Originally, he was worried that Chu Yi would compete with him for favor, but now he can be sure that Chu Yi is definitely not a peaceful person.

You must know that it was Zhang Dun. All fools know that what Chu Yi is referring to is Zhang Dun’s rebellion, which must be framed and framed. In the Song Dynasty, the system was perfect. If there is a rebellion, I am afraid that even one soldier and one soldier may not be able to mobilize.

That's why no one would believe Zhang Dun's rebellion, but Chu Yi did it so boldly.

Even Chu Yi, the solitary prime minister, dared to frame it, Liang Shicheng couldn't think of anything else that Chu Yi dared not do.

Carefully, he took out the stack of letters from the box, and placed it on the table in front of Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji also knew that Zhang Dun's rebellion was completely nonsense, and it must be Chu Yi's frame-up, but what Zhao Ji wanted was an excuse to punish Zhang Dun, and what excuse could be compared to the crime of treason.

Glancing over the open letter, Zhao Ji suddenly slapped the table, and said with an angry expression, "Bold, Zhang Dun, you are guilty!"

Standing among the courtiers, Zhang Dun just stood there, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

At this moment, Zhao Ji was directly named, Zhang Dun took a step forward, and said without defending: "I am guilty, but I have no intention of rebelling, and I ask Your Majesty to see Wanli clearly."

Staring at Zhang Dun for a while, Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "Withdrawing from the dynasty, I will investigate the matter of Zhang's conspiracy, and I will never wrong anyone."

The officials who retreated with boundless shock quickly spread the news about what happened above the court.

For a time, the entire Bian capital was shaken. First of all, Zhang Dun was accused of treason. What a sensational news.

I don't know how many people excitedly discuss Zhang Dun's treason after being shocked.

"Impossible, the Zhang family is a famous family, and the generations are loyal, how can there be people who rebel."

"Zhang Xiang is really wronged. With Zhang's loyalty to the court, if anyone goes to rebel, Zhang Xiang will not rebel."

"I knew that Your Majesty would not tolerate Zhang Xiang, and I never thought that in order to force Zhang Xiang out of the court, His Majesty and that Chu Yi would slander Zhang Xiang and rebel."

Some of the scholars, especially those who belonged to Zhang Dun's family, heard the news that Zhang Dun had been thrown into prison by his emperor's order. One by one, they were so indignant that they were going to jointly sign a letter to the emperor to complain about Zhang Dun's injustice.

But at this time Han Zhongyan stood up and appeased these scholars.

In Han Zhongyan's mansion, several disciples from Zhang Dun's sect were looking at Han Zhongyan with doubts and anger, and one of them said in a loud voice, "Mr. Han, my teacher is a close friend of you, how can you just sit back and watch?"

Han Zhongyan raised his head, glanced at a few people and said, "Come on? Don't you see that this is His Majesty's meaning? His Majesty has been dissatisfied with Brother Zhang for a long time, and this will happen sooner or later. As for the crime of treason , that's just a name set up by the Emperor to persecute Brother Zhang."

Several scholars were stunned for a moment, looked at Han Zhongyan and said, "According to Prime Minister Han's opinion, should we do nothing?"

Han Zhongyan said solemnly: "Doing nothing at this time is much better than your messy mess. If you really jointly signed a letter, for Brother Zhang, your actions will only bring you a lot of money. Crisis does not solve the problem in the slightest.”

Seeing the confused and sluggish appearance of several soldiers, Han Zhongyan smashed and explained: "Although the name of the rebellion is framed, it is a fact that Brother Zhang is in power. If you write a letter, wouldn't that make the Son of Heaven have some thoughts on Brother Zhang. At that time, I'm afraid the accusation of planting the crime will become true."

In the palace, in the imperial study.

Zhao Ji, whose face was full of joy, looked at Chu Yi, and said with great satisfaction: "Okay, Chu Yi, what you have done is really good. I never thought that I could even accuse Zhang Dun'an of treason."

Saying that, Zhao Ji rubbed his fists and said, "This time I want to see how Zhang Dun can stay in this court."

In the imperial study room was not only Chu Yi, but also Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng.

At this moment, Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng looked at Chu Yi, with deep fear in their eyes. This is a bold and unreasonable master, and even Zhang Dun was detained by him as a rebel. , they really can't imagine, what else is something Chu Yi dare not do.

Chu Yi appeared to be very calm and low-key and said to Zhao Ji: "I just follow Your Majesty's orders to share your worries for His Majesty."

Zhao Ji was really satisfied with Chu Yi at this moment, and he pondered: "Let me ask you, how do you want me to reward you for your meritorious deeds?"

Chu Yi shook his head and said, "Your Majesty's reward is something that this minister deserves. If His Majesty insists, then allow some of the ministers' troops to enter the East Factory."

Zhao Ji glanced at Chu Yi, and became more and more satisfied. He nodded and said, "If the Qing family wants to assign someone, all you need to do is report the list to me."

After speaking, Zhao Ji said again: "The East Factory is not much staffed, so I will allow you to expand the manpower, um, and tentatively set it as a battalion."

Chu Yi's eyes lit up, knowing that there are only more than a hundred people in the East Factory now. This was changed on the basis of the Wells and Water Affairs Department. The number of people has already been placed by Chu Yi within the scope of the rules.

Now Zhao Ji has given a battalion and five capitals as soon as he opens his mouth. You must know that according to the military establishment of the Song Dynasty, each capital has a hundred people, and the five capitals are one battalion, with five hundred people.

Compared with the thousands of troops under the Imperial City Division, the East Factory is independent of the Imperial City Division, but has no personnel and horses. This is a flaw in itself and greatly limits the expansion of the East Factory. Now Zhao Ji has opened his mouth to the first battalion. In terms of organization, although it is said that the people and horses are inferior to the Imperial City Division, in Chu Yi's opinion, there are [-] people in the short term, but it is enough for him to manipulate.

Imagine if Chu Yi could gather Lu Junyi, Lu Da, Wu Song, Li Jun, Hua Rong, Yang Zhi under the command of Dongchang, even if there were only [-] people, he could reach thousands of troops.
