In the imperial study room, Chongzhen sat behind the desk and hugged his head, feeling very frustrated. Zhao Xing sat on the stool, hugging his head, feeling very frustrated.

Fang Zhenghua stood at the gate of the imperial study room and forbidden all palace maids and eunuchs to approach because Chongzhen did not want his expression to be known to others.

Chongzhen sighed after a long time: "Our king and minister are still too young and are too fucked to do things."

After hearing this, Zhao Xing was inexplicably relieved. As long as you can understand your sensible personality, it proves that you have made progress. Well, this is also a lesson, but, including me, I am planning and calm.

"That old thing Zhou Tingru has made a complete use of me. I claim to be smart, but I have never fought against that thief in my hometown."

Chongzhen sighed, "From Zhou Tingru's performance this time, the ministers have admired him. Even Wen Tiren, who has been fighting for power with him, has retreated. Now he is the chief minister of the cabinet, has the highest voice. I have to adapt to the opinions of the ministers and promise him to be the chief minister of the next session."

Zhao Xing was even more painful: "I clearly knew that that guy was a thing that harmed the country and the people, and would push our court into more chaos, but I was powerless for a moment, so what can I do?"

Chongzhen murmured for a long time: "It's your own fault, and you'll be blamed. This is what we are talking about. But now the power of ministers is so powerful, and the group of honors that have just been cultivated, because Xue Lian was criticized by the ministers, still cannot compete with them at all. I can only grit my teeth and admit it. Let him be the first one."

Zhao Xing looked at Chongzhen in surprise. He was not surprised by Chongzhen's expression, but by surprise that he could see the key. In this feudal era, the strength of centralization was the core. The stability of imperial power was the key. At this critical moment, Chongzhen did not stubbornly continue to fight against the ministers as described in history, but wisely chose to temporarily give in.

At this time, the four words "Young Fuck" seemed to be far away from Chongzhen.

"Okay, don't think about the past anymore, just think about it. No matter what, what our monarch and ministers thought at the beginning and what happened now are a bit unreliable. But after all, we discovered Xue Lian's greed early and eliminated him as soon as possible. If we didn't discover the turmoil in time and there would be endless troubles. At this point, it can only be considered as your misfortune to eliminate hidden dangers for the development of the Ming army." He did not review his improper employment, but was just a moment of gratitude.

Zhao Xing could only smile bitterly. All achievements that were not under his control were not considered achievements. Such things could no longer be done. Now it seems that the four words "Young Fucking" are really appropriate to put them on your head.

"Damn "History of Ming Dynasty" killed people." Zhao Xing muttered in frustration.

Chongzhen waved generously: "This matter has passed, let's talk about the follow-up endings later. The most important thing for you now is to implement our next plan, handle the Korean case well, give a perfect ending as soon as possible, and avoid the situation of the three major cases again." Then he stood up and said firmly: "The three major cases of the Ming Dynasty are always used by others, which really shakes the foundation of the country. If this case is not done well, it will involve more and more. At that time, you will be the sinner of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhao Xing took a deep breath, threw away all the other confusing problems in his head, and gave a deep respect to Chongzhen: "I will definitely make this case a bad case without any flaws."

So the two young men looked at each other in despair for a while, Zhao Xing walked out of the imperial city. In the wide square of the Meridian Gate, when Zhao Xing turned around, he had no feelings for the Meridian Gate.

In the evening, Duke of Zheng came to Zhao Xing's house and sat face to face, and was speechless for a long time.

In the end, Zheng Guo publicly said: "I still have to thank you because you left Wuyang Hou's family."

Zhao Xing sighed: "If it weren't for the declaration in front of Zhou Tingru's gate, I might have done better."

When Zhao Xing said this, Duke Zheng said, and after expressing his contempt, he still said helplessly: "Don't pretend to me, we all know your heart."

Zhao Xing looked up and said to him seriously: "Do you and everyone understand my heart? To be more precise, do you understand the emperor's heart?"

Regarding such a question, Duke Zheng was silent. After a long time, he solemnly asked: "Do you mean the emperor?"

Zhao Xing leaned his body on the back of the chair with a relaxed look, then picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, then put it down, and said lightly: "I can't represent anyone, but I'm fighting for us, just like this cup of tea, soak it slowly."

Zhao Xing took it for granted that Chongzhen took the blame for himself. It was also time for Chongzhen to take it back.

Duke Zheng looked at Zhao Xing carefully. After a long time, he couldn't help but ask in pain: "Who do you want to kill?"

Zhao Xing shook his head gently: "Old Duke, it's not my cruel heart, it's really forced by this world. If we want to unite our noble group and finally be able to compete with the people of the Donglin Party, we must work together. But—" shook our head helplessly: "At this critical moment, there are still people inside us. This is understandable in normal times, but now it will make us die."

Then he looked at the old Duke with sincerity: "My father-in-law, the British Duke, died in battle. He fought for the final glory for our noble group. But everyone no longer cherished it, but still shrank his neck and became an ostrich. Do we still have a chance if this situation continues? I think that when the bandits enter Beijing in the future, there will be many nobles who surrender to the bandits. When Jiannu occupied the Central Plains, there will be more nobles who forget the original intention of their ancestors and surrender to the foreign race."

He shook his hand gently: "Don't tell me your ending and persistence. The current nobles have long forgotten the persistence of their ancestors. They are no longer the original people."

Think about the pain in history, three of the five dukes surrendered, 25 marquises and 11 surrendered. What a pain it was like? Those who were all ancestors and the heroes of the Ming Dynasty who had developed this brilliant and hard bone were so unbearable.

Stand up and pace slowly: "This Ming Dynasty is already full of dangers. The emperor and I want to work hard to change this situation. But under our joint research, who can change this situation? It is not those Donglin who talk big and only talk about the country in vain. But no matter what, Donglin has occupied the commanding heights of morality, making it difficult for me and the emperor to move forward. We need to cultivate a new force to confront the Donglin Party members and balance the court again. In politics, we can achieve the most fundamental correctness."

Then he stared at Duke Zheng: "This is my invitation to you on behalf of the emperor."

One word of the emperor is enough to show that Zhao Xing is correct, and it is enough to show that it represents the highest person in this feudal era. As long as a person with a little heart to be loyal to the emperor and patriotism can only be convinced by the earth.

Looking at the surprised Duke of Zheng, Zhao Xing smiled indifferently: "Of course, you can still live a life of drunkenness and dream and enjoy the welfare of this court. However, since you are not used by the emperor, you must perish. Wuyang Hou, this is just the beginning."

Faced with Zhao Xing's complete showdown, Duke Zheng couldn't help but tremble: "Is this what the emperor means?"

Zhao Xing smiled coldly: "Is this what I mean, isn't it enough?"

Duke Zheng was speechless.

Zhao Xing looked at the Duke of Zheng who had left Xiao Suo and said firmly in his heart: "For my use, I will visit the cottage three times, and I will be pretentious."

"Go and tell them that you will continue to be loyal to the court and the emperor. The emperor will not treat you badly. Then follow me and fight over Donglin and restore our glory. Or I will fight you down, and everyone will finish playing together, so that the Ming Dynasty that your ancestors worked hard to protect will perish. Choose one."
