Chapter 196: Making a feint to the east and attacking in the west
Looking at the appearance of the chief minister of the cabinet, Zhao Yu's heart moved slightly.
At this time, he was faced with these two choices.
One is to give in directly, push this fatal topic to Zhang Wei, the first assistant, and withdraw himself.
In this way, everyone's focus will shift to the chief minister of the cabinet.
However, if Zhao Yu did this, the man in the dragon tent would definitely not give up.
The second is to contradict him, follow the emperor's wishes, and simply offend the civil and military officials of the dynasty.
In this way, he will really become the target of public criticism, and the emperor will feel free to appoint him.
One is an important official of the imperial court, and the other is the Nine-Five Supreme Being.
Zhao Yu raised his head slightly, glanced at Zhang Wei standing beside him, and then carefully glanced at the emperor in the dragon tent.
"What Mr. Zhang Ge said is too harsh."
Zhao Yu took a breath in his heart, and then said: "The most important thing in employing people is their wisdom. The position of Governor of the East Factory is high and powerful. Your Majesty does not appoint nepotism. Do you want to find someone who does not know his character?"
"Dongchang has the power to supervise and arrest hundreds of officials. Only those who know the basics can safely delegate such power."
Now that the situation has reached this point, Zhao Yu has nothing to worry about.
"Hmph, according to what Governor Zhao Zhen said, it's up to you to take over the position of Governor of the East Factory!"
Zhang Wei snorted coldly and said to Zhao Yu with a smile on his face.
Governor of the East Factory?
Zhao Yu trembled all over after hearing Zhang Wei's sarcasm.
To him, this hot cake that all parties compete for has no appeal at all.
"Don't dare!"
Although Zhao Yu lowered his head, from the corner of his eye, he still saw a smile on the emperor's lips when he and Zhang Wei were facing each other.
"Hmph, is there anything in this world that you Jin Yiwei don't dare to do?"
Daqian Chaotang Qingliu originally looked down on factory guard eagle dogs like Zhao Yu, not to mention that Zhao Yu had stolen a lot of money from him during the early snow disaster.
Among the four giant businessmen in the capital, Zhang Wei was among them.
"I don't know what I'm doing, so I'd like to ask you to clarify!"
An Jianqing knew that when Zhang Wei said these words, he could no longer take it off.
He is the head of Jinyiwei. Although Zhang Wei is competing with He Zhaoyu, he is talking about the entire Jinyiwei.
"It's no wonder that you are still the commander of the Jin Yiwei. You don't even know what your subordinates have done!"
Zhang Wei glanced at An Jianqing disdainfully, then knelt down at the foot of the Jiulong steps and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have today impeached Zhao Yu, the governor of the Northern Division of Jinyiwei, for taking bribes, perverting the law, and killing the emperor's relatives without permission!
!”
When Zhang Wei finished speaking, everyone else was shocked. Even Wei Zhongxian and Zhu Wuwu looked at Zhao Yu.
To be honest, what Zhang Wei said is not to frame Zhao Yu, but there are many twists and turns in these things, and it involves the forces of all parties.
"oh?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, then looked at Zhang Wei and asked slowly: "Does Zhang Aiqing have the credentials to participate in these performances?"
"There is no evidence of corruption, but killing the royal family is in full view of the public!"
Uncle Yongqing!!
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, Zhao Yu raised his head slightly and took a peek at the emperor in the dragon tent.
When he wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, he had the emperor's tacit approval. However, at this time, Zhao Yu was not sure whether the emperor would kill the donkey.
Zhao Yu, who said nothing, sank his consciousness into the system backpack.
As long as the emperor changes his face, no one present will be able to survive!!
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Zhao Yu killed the emperor's relatives for no reason with the Emperor's Sword in his hand. This is simply lawless. Your Majesty, please take back the Emperor's Sword and severely punish the perpetrators!"
Zhang Wei said and knelt down again.
At this time, everyone was still in a state of confusion. Only Wei Zhongxian, who was sitting at the bottom left of the Kowloon steps, narrowed his eyes slightly.
Punishing Zhao Yu is a lie, but wanting to take back the Emperor's Sword is true!
Being too old to die is a demon, Wei Zhongxian had already understood the moment Zhang Wei finished his words.
The emperor wanted to use the hands of Zhao Yu and Zhang Wei to weaken the power in his hands!!
"That's right!"
The emperor in the dragon tent couldn't see clearly his facial expression, but Zhao Yu could tell he was proud from this sound of approval.
The emperor only said that he had taken back the Emperor's Sword, but never mentioned punishing Zhao Yu.
And Zhang Wei, who initially competed with Zhao Yu, seemed to have forgotten about this incident after the emperor took back the Emperor's Sword!
In the end, the emperor dismissed all the ministers, but only the thirteenth prince and Liu Xi stayed.
Although it is not stated clearly, everyone already knows it.
…
Outside Chengtian Gate, at the entrance of Jinyiwei Yamen.
Two sturdy men dressed in black delivered a cart to the gatekeeper.
Although this cart is ordinary, the person covered by the white cloth on the cart has a great background.
"This is a sign of confiscation..."
While the commander was on duty, An Jianqing sent a driving notice to Zhao Yu.
"Leave the matter of murder to the Qianhu Office of Military Administration!"
Zhao Yu saw the driving post in his hand, turned to look at An Jianqing and said.
The emperor made it clear that Cao Zhengchun's family would be confiscated and his family exterminated.
He was familiar with the matter of confiscating homes, so there was no difficulty in doing so.
Can be exterminated...
Although Cao Zhengchun was an eunuch, there were many enemies and servants in the outer house. Zhao Yu really couldn't do anything to attack these defenseless people!
"no!"
Unexpectedly, An Jianqing shook his head at this moment and directly rejected Zhao Yu.
"Holy orders cannot be violated. You should see more clearly than I do about His Majesty's intentions..."
An Jianqing looked at Zhao Yu, who was frowning, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "They say that Jin Yiwei is a butcher and executioner. Although this is true, it is a bit too much."
"Jinyiwei can only be regarded as a butcher's knife at best, a real butcher..."
Having said this, An Jianqing turned around and glanced in the direction of Chengtian Gate, and the meaning was self-evident.
"Reporting to the commander, the prisoner's body has arrived outside the Yamen!"
At this time, He An, the commander-in-chief of the order, came in, cupped his fists and said to An Jianqing.
An Jianqing nodded, then turned around, put on his Feiyu suit, hung up his embroidered spring knife, and walked out of the Yamen.
Outside the Jinyiwei Yamen, more than thirty powerful warriors were already waiting in formation.
The subordinate led two horses and sent them to Zhao Yu and An Jianqing respectively.
"To be honest, I admire what you did in Chuxue Daquan, but some things are not as good as you imagined!"
An Jianqing got on his horse and said to Zhao Yu who was standing aside: "We are not in a hurry to confiscate the house. If you are interested, come with me to see the scene of this four-door patrol!"
Zhao Yu glanced at An Jianqing, and then at the already dead Cao Zhengchun who was tied to the public prison cart by the warriors.
Chapter completed!
