Chapter 250 Still laughing
When Zhou Zheng returned to Zhou’s mansion, Zhou Qingli and Zhou Fang had been waiting for a long time.
In Zhou Qingli's study, the three father and son were sitting on the small table and drinking some wine.
Zhou Fang looked a little excited and looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "Second brother, you did a pretty job this time! If I had known this, I would have written a letter. What a pity! By the way, what are you going to do with the others? Should you impeach each other or come one by one?"
Zhou Zheng blinked. This big brother was too excited. What stupid things were he saying?
Zhou Qingli glanced at the eldest son and said to Zhou Zheng directly: "You are really taking a risk this time. If the emperor insists on trying to keep Cui Chengxiu, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The new emperor was still enduring and busy sorting out the relationship between the court and the court officials, and adopted a pacification strategy for the eunuch party. As a general of the eunuch party, Cui Chengxiu insisted on keeping Wei Zhongxian to stabilize Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch party would be even more arrogant. Zhou Zheng, who had just written a letter to impeach, would inevitably become a victim of pacifying eunuch party.
Zhou Zheng naturally thought about this possibility and said, "Well, I have calculated it carefully. Cui Chengxiu has to leave, and it is useless to try to keep the new emperor."
Zhou Qingli heard that the second son had done a lot of things under the table. He was silent for a while and said, "What are you going to do next?"
Cui Chengxiu's resignation was the result of Zhou Zheng's direct number of reports on the books. Whether the eunuch party retaliates or everyone is in danger, there will definitely be actions in the future, and they can no longer control so much.
The actions of the New Party were even more obvious, and it was obvious that Zhou Zheng was pushed forward and became a pawn for the test eunuch party and the new emperor.
Zhou Zheng had not tolerated the court before, but now the two parties are working together to plot against Zhou Zheng. How should Zhou Zheng's career take in the future?
Zhou Zheng understood what Zhou Qingli meant and said, "I had no intention of staying in the capital, so let them."
Neither the eunuch party nor the new party will be proud for long, and the situation they expect will not happen.
Zhou Qingli listened to Zhou Zheng's words and said, "I'm asking you what actions you will do next?"
Zhou Qingli already had some understanding of Zhou Zheng. Zhou Zheng clearly had a plan in his mind, step by step, without any rush or slow down. He wanted to know what Zhou Zheng wanted to do and what exactly he wanted to do!
Zhou Fang listened and looked at Zhou Zheng with some enthusiasm, "Take me with me" almost on his face.
Zhou Zheng looked at Mr. Zhou, pondered for a moment, and said, "Wait."
"What are you waiting for?" Zhou Qingli said.
"Wait for the new emperor to take action." Zhou Zhengyan said concisely.
Zhu Youjian has moved into the palace. It is almost September now. At most one month, Zhu Youjian will be able to resolve the Qing Dynasty and control the situation. At that time, he will decisively attack the eunuch party, show no mercy, and be quick, accurate and ruthless!
Zhou Qingli thought silently about Zhou Zheng's words and said after a moment: "Even if the emperor wants to take power, he may just drive away Wei Zhongxian and expel the eunuch party, and there will be no excessive force."
Zhou Zheng shook his head and said, "Wei Zhongxian is not a simple eunuch. His power has never been seen in ancient times. No emperor can tolerate it. When he is alive, the new emperor will only toss and turn, as if he is on his back, and it is difficult to fall asleep."
Zhou Qingli frowned and nodded slightly for a moment.
Wei Zhongxian was indeed what Zhou Zheng said, not only a eunuch, nor a powerful minister. His power ranged from inside and outside the palace to the frontier, and unimaginable military and political circles. If the new emperor wanted to become a real emperor, he had no other choice except to completely eliminate it.
This is not whether the emperor is kind or whether Wei Zhongxian is useful, but whether his butt determines his head, which is an inevitable move for the emperor!
Zhou Zheng knew that Mr. Zhou was worried about him, so he said for a while: "I will sit and observe the direction of the wind next time. If I don't take action easily, Jiujiang Pavilion will be completed, and I have a lot of things to do."
Zhou Qingli could hear this comfort, so she picked up the teacup and said, "Before I left the palace just now, the emperor seemed to intend to see you."
Zhou Zheng was stunned. Zhu Youjian wanted to see him?
Zhou Qingli took a sip of tea and put it down and said, "I refuse. You are not suitable to meet the emperor now."
Zhou Zheng understood. Zhou Qingli didn't want Zhu Youjian to see him, as if afraid that he would say something that "shouldn't" said.
Zhou Qingli continued: "Now the eunuch party, Donglin is staring at you, be careful."
Zhou Zheng did not say that he was attacked just now and said, "I know."
The eunuch party is naturally undoubtedly. As for the so-called new party, it is the Donglin Party in the eyes of many people, and the Donglin Party represents Qingliu to a large extent.
The two parties are even more inclusive to him. In the eyes of many people, Zhou Zheng’s path to the officialdom will be extremely difficult, and he may even break away from his own career.
Zhou Fang wanted to speak but stopped, and his envy was unconcealed. He was also eager to do something. Seeing Zhou Zheng's successive big news, especially the eunuch general Cui Chengxiu, it became even more difficult to control himself.
Zhou Qingli knew his eldest son very well and said lightly: "Hengping, you will follow me into the palace tomorrow."
The second son is quite reasonable in what he does. If the eldest son is involved in one move, it may be a disaster.
Zhou Fang knew what Mr. Zhou meant, and the corners of his mouth moved and did not say it. Although impeachment of the eunuch party was a big deal, the new emperor's affairs were even bigger.
While the Zhou family's three fathers and sons were discussing, there was also progress in Menghezhou.
A secret guard came out of a torture room with a paper and handed it to Meng Hezhou, saying, "Mengtou, I've called it, it's Cui Chengli's man, he asked him to do it."
Meng Hezhou was stunned, took it and looked at it, and said in disbelief: "He isn't he lying you, right?"
The secret guard hurriedly said, "Don't worry, although these people are all desperate people, they can't resist the great punishment. They are definitely true!"
The reason why Meng Hezhou doesn't believe it is because Zhou Zheng and Cui Chengxiu are both in the storm. Cui Chengxiu was defeated by Zhou Zhenggan. If something happened to Zhou Zheng, the first thing anyone thinks of is Cui Chengxiu.
He became angry and angry and acted like a slut. This kind of behavior was intolerable by the scholars and officials. If it was exposed, Cui Chengxiu would not leave the capital. The prison was his permanent destination.
Choi Chengli is anxious, is she really a stupid pig? Does Choi Chengxiu know?
Meng Hezhou just thought about it this way, too lazy to care about these things, and said directly: "I have someone to give it to Zhou Zhengyun. These people are optimistic, especially the leader, and find a way to make him alive."
"Yes." The secret guard replied.
At this time, Cui Chengxiu and others were a little anxious, staring at the servant in front of them through the crack in the door, and asked, "Cao Zhihuang hasn't come back yet?"
The servant didn't know how many times he had answered, but he still honestly said: "Yes, there was no reply."
Cui Chengxiu frowned and said to herself, "No, why did it take so long to deal with Zhou Zheng? Cao Zhihuang has always been quick and neat in his actions. Why did he use it for so long this time?"
The servant looked at Cui Chengli and wanted to say but didn't dare to say it.
He wanted to say, would Cao Zhihuang fail? But he thought that Zhou Zheng was an ordinary family of officials, more than a dozen outlaws, with intentional calculations but no reason to fail.
Cui Chengli naturally did not think about this. Cao Zhihuang had assassinated many high-ranking officials and nobles without fail.
"Second Master, I've come back from afar. I'll ask you to see him." A servant ran over and said.
Cui Chengli was startled through the crack in the door and said, "What's the matter?"
The servant was startled when he heard Cui Chengli's tone and hurriedly said, "It seems like he was asking the second master to prepare the money."
Cui Chengli was relieved and snorted coldly, saying, "Then why don't you open the door quickly."
The servant hurriedly opened the door and let Cui Chengli come out.
Choi Chengxiu has been packing up the beginning and end at this moment, and is about to pack up his things and leave Jing. He didn't know what his good brother was doing with him on his back. At this moment, there was a relaxed smile on his face.
