Chapter 948 The Way of Life

Since Zhang Sijiao went out to do business at the age of 16 and became the leader of the Zhang family in the Puzhou market, he has always been in trouble. Therefore, he never expected that he would be targeted, so he suffered such a big loss. Even though he was very dissatisfied with Zhang Taizheng being repeatedly frustrated by Wang Fulin, he almost had an inner demon and caused big troubles to his family in a mess, but from the bottom of his heart, when he came forward to deal with Wang Fulin himself, he still had some condescending points.

The Zhang family in Puzhou and the Wang family in Songmingshan made a fortune. One started with Cangyan and the other started with Huaiyan. It was only a few decades to count. However, there were no great figures in the shopping malls in recent years. More than a small follower behind the Cheng and Xu families. In addition, Wang Daokun has retired and returned to his hometown. Wang Daokun is just a county magistrate. Even though Wang Fulin is famous, he is actually a seventh-rank censor. Therefore, Zhang Sijiao already feels that he attaches great importance to the other party. Unexpectedly, he still underestimates people after all.

He could not have thought that Wang Fulin had agreed to make peace and had submitted the biggest letter of impeachment of Feng Bao, but he turned his hand and stabbed Zhang Siwei, which was still deep and ruthless. It would be fine if he just impeached Zhang Siwei, but he could almost conclude that the person who pretended to be his voice and mobilized the Zhang family was also instructed by Wang Fulin, so he could involve Liu Shouyou and then slashed Liu Shouyou with another knife!

But the person who pretended to be his voice...

Zhang Sijiao stood up with his stiff feet, but as if he was awe of his elder brother when he was young, he didn't dare to look up at Zhang Siwei's eyes. Sure enough, the next moment, he only heard Zhang Siwei ask, "Although you have been showing up for many years, you think you want to learn your voice vividly. It is definitely not a day to go. Do you have any doubts?"

Although he didn't want to tell the ugly thing about the past, at this critical moment, Zhang Sijiao was even more worried that the other party would do it as usual. Even if he was exhausted, he would definitely be difficult to guard against. Therefore, he could only whisper about Liu Ying, and then said bitterly: "I only thought that the boat she was sitting on had overturned on the canal and died. The servant who came back to report the news also said the same thing, but he didn't expect..."

Unexpectedly, there is no need to say anything after that. Zhang Siwei has been an official in the capital since he passed the Jinshi exam. He had no choice but to enter the cabinet. However, he was embarrassed by Yin Shidan's counterattack and lived in a mess when he returned home for several years. But even so, he still knew a lot about his younger brother's family affairs. Because his father was still there and the Zhang family had never separated, so Zhang Sijiao took a romantic woman home but was turned away by the old man. He then left a different house and once brought a daughter back, but he did not raise a house in the end.

He always admired this younger brother who was very smart but had to sink into the mall the most. At this time, he couldn't help but scolded: "Why are you so confused? Her daughter is either raised by her. After taking it home, if she doesn't support her, tell her the truth. If she can't stand it and want to die, she will go there. But you actually took such a fictitious girl and kept lying to her, and even sent her out to do that kind of pickled thing! Now, it's okay, but she can't silence her, but she left such a big disaster outside! You said before that your nephew, I think you are even more confused than him!"

Zhang Sijiao lowered his head and listened to the lecture with a pale face, and felt regretful. What he never expected most was that the woman who obeyed her everything would surrender to Wang Fulin after the disaster! You know, that was an inexperienced flower boat woman, how could she know that Wang Fulin had a grudge with her family? How could he rather spend so many twists and turns to seek revenge on himself?

"Brother, I'm afraid my nephew was this firefly and secretly earned it away with tricks, but the whole family announced that he was dead. What should I do now?" Seeing that Zhang Siwei didn't say anything, Zhang Sijiao gritted his teeth and said again, "The news that the emperor went to kneel down to the previous palace today has spread all over the capital. You go to Fuque but there is no following. I'm afraid that the emperor is completely at a disadvantage in the palace. At this moment, is it going to be a road that is dark, or..."

If he still wants to give in the future, he really can't say it. If he wants to surrender at this time, it's not that Wang Fulin refused to accept the matter of the Underworld Alliance. Wang Fulin, who has already submitted a memorial, will never stop. Moreover, Zhang Siwei's leader Fuque has already done everything, so it is absolutely impossible to give up halfway. But when things have reached this point, how many people can be mobilized tomorrow? Liu Shouyou has lost his official position. Can he still connect people everywhere?

Zhang Siwei, who was always decisive, couldn't make a decision for the first time in his life. After thinking about it, he asked, "Wang Fulin was lingering in the palace for a long time today. Do you know what he did?"

The family was in a mess, but Zhang Sijiao was not a simple person. His brother and the officials were in the palace. He never stopped inquiring about the matter in the palace and immediately spoke: "It is said that after Wang Fulin handed over the memorial to impeach the elder brother at Huiji Gate, he was taken to the Qianqing Palace by the eunuch Li Yong of the Cining Palace. He should have met the two empress dowagers and Zhang Juzheng there. Then, Li Yong took him to the Cining Palace, probably to see the emperor. But no one knew what he said specifically on both sides. After he came out, he was going to leave the palace from the Meridian Gate, but he returned to Huiji Gate and handed over the memorial to impeach Liu Shouyou, and then returned to the Censorate."

This movement trajectory became clear and clear. After Zhang Siwei thought about it carefully, his eyebrows gradually became a knot.

"Wang Fulin actually went to see the emperor... I am afraid that what happened at home today would be a trick of killing two birds with one stone. Dalang is my eldest son, and the emperor is also the eldest son of the old lady Cisheng. If the emperor hears about my family, Wang Fulin instigates me for a few more words, he is afraid that he will put the mark of unkindness in his heart! If I want to turn over, unless I can turn over the public opinion, take the emperor out of Fengxian Hall, and suppress Cining Palace."

When Zhang Sijiao heard the word "one stone, two birds with one stone, his heart skipped a beat. When he heard Zhang Siwei telling the only way to live, he felt a loud bang in his mind.

If Liu Shouyou is here, this matter is probably possible, but now the factory guards are all in the hands of the other party. They are already fish on the chopping board, so do they still have room for a turnaround?

"You have figured out what happened to the emperor and the two empress dowagers?"

Wang Fulin could have Jiang Huai sent messages. Zhang Siwei had been an official in Beijing for so many years. Even though he had never taught the Nei Shutang, there were certainly corresponding channels in the palace. In addition, Empress Dowager Li seemed to have forgotten the news of blockade. Zhang Sijiao naturally inquired about the conflict between the Empress Dowager and the emperor. Of course, no one dared to gossip about the emperor's biological mother's love to be a fool, but no one would hide the reason for the conflict between the mother and son around Feng Bao. After all, Feng Bao had been blocking the sky in the palace for many years, and there were many people who couldn't stand it.

"This life is on Feng Bao." Zhang Siwei took a deep breath and said word by word, "He used the method of step-by-step pressure to deal with Gao Gong. Now he is the emperor's companion, but if he was not protected by Ci Sheng, he would have suffered a lot. As long as the emperor takes power in the future and remembers the current hatred, he is afraid that not only will he be defeated, but even his brother and nephew in his family will not be spared. You said you know that you are unlucky, what would he do?" Zhang Siwei saw Zhang Sijie's sudden enlightenment, and he sneered coldly, "Feng Bao will definitely plan to decree! If Ci Sheng also has this intention at that time, Zhang Juzheng has to surrender, that is our opportunity!"

Zhang Siwei was not wrong about Feng Bao. Even though Feng Bao was still wrapped in cotton cloth on his head, he looked bloody, but he instructed his confidant Zhang Dashou to go to Fengxian Hall. After changing the place where the emperor knelt down, he changed two candles that he had turned out from the bottom of the box, he went to Cining Palace and Ciqing Palace in person.

Empress Dowager Cisheng Li always trusted him, and he knew that, so after entering the palace from a private house with a straight house by the river, he immediately went to Cining Palace. However, Empress Dowager Rensheng Chen of Ciqing Palace did not have much favor to him, and this time he was probably even more hated by the little emperor's misbehavior. But even so, he still went to Ciqing Palace to kneel down, showing deep regret for his original appearance, and pretending to seek death.

As the step-concubine and queen, but her husband almost got her into the cold palace, Empress Chen, is naturally not a person who is good at fighting. After Feng Bao's artificiality, although she would never be able to get rid of her knots, she thought that she was the best companion who had been with Zhu Yijun for more than ten years, so she agreed to Feng Bao's request, and promised to turn back and plead in Zhu Yijun's ear and put the person in Nanjing for retirement.

In this case, when Feng Bao turned to Cining Palace again to meet Empress Dowager Li, he knelt down and then said in a trembling voice: "My lady, please take good care of yourself in the future. After my injury is slightly healed, I will go to Nanjing to guard the tomb of the Ling Sixiang. I can no longer share your worries."

At this moment, Feng Bao's head wrapped in a veil, the still purple face was worse than sallow, almost a bit pale face... Everything had a huge impact on Empress Dowager Li. Since she became a favored concubine in Prince Yu's Mansion, she has always trusted Feng Bao very much. Later, she enthroned the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine, and Feng Bao also respected him wholeheartedly. It was different from Chen Hong and Meng Chong's eunuchs who only knew how to flatter the emperor, so she had always been very relieved to entrust the criticism to Feng Bao completely, and she would not even read the following memoirs.

She stood up almost in shock and angrily, and said sternly, "Who dares to drive you away?"

"Old Empress, the emperor is the emperor after all. Since he can no longer tolerate the old slave, there will be tomorrow after today and tomorrow after tomorrow. Instead of being annoying, it would be better to retreat to Nanjing to retire. The old Empress Rensheng is compassionate in her heart. She has already agreed to the old slave and will turn around in front of the emperor and make sure that the old slave will ask for it." Feng Bao had no intention of throwing dirty water on Empress Chen at all, but kowtowed again, "The old slave will be gone in the future. If anyone on the emperor says something bad about the old slave, I just want you to say a few words of justice for the old slave, and I will be grateful."

Without waiting for Empress Dowager Li to agree or refuse, Feng Bao rushed to say: "Mr. Yuanfu and Mr. Zhang offended more people than Lao Nu, and he was afraid that the outcome would be worse in the future. If the old lady could let him retire as soon as possible, she might be able to protect him. If she dragged on her, she would be confronted by someone in the future. Now that he is sick, Zhang Siwei dares to lie in the face. If he has a few things, then maybe..."

Feng Bao refused to mention that the emperor had accused Empress Dowager Li and Zhang Juzheng of having a beginning and end, but this did not mean that Empress Dowager Li would not have any associations. Although Wang Fulin even went to persuade Zhu Yijun to bow his head in person, although Empress Dowager Chen also pleaded hard, on the surface, her anger seemed to have been suppressed, but the thought deep in her heart did not go away for a long time.

Others can't see who Feng Bao is, how could he not see the rage under Empress Dowager Li's face? When he came this time, he had already secretly used some tricks.

Sure enough, at this moment, a small noise came from the outside. Immediately afterwards, the door was pushed open, but Lu Wang Zhu Yiliu stumbled into the door, his face still a little confused.

Today's incident happened greatly, but Empress Dowager Li ordered Zhu Yili to lock up in the room and not to come out from the beginning. If anyone dared to tell him anything, he would beat him to death. Therefore, the little pink dumpling-like King Lu really didn't know anything at this moment. He rubbed his eyes and walked into the door, looked around and looked around. When he saw Feng Bao, he called out to his companion, and then hesitated to Empress Dowager Li and asked in a low voice: "Mother, why didn't the eldest brother come to die tonight?"

Morning and dusk provinces mean morning and dusk provinces. To be more common, they say goodbye to their parents in the morning and evening. This is also the rule from the palace to the wealthy families. Empress Dowager Li didn't expect that her younger son would come and ask this, and her face suddenly darkened, but she couldn't say that the eldest son was driven to kneel to the temple. She could only grit her teeth and then said in a deep voice: "Your brother has something to do, why are you asking this?"

"It's nothing, it's just that my elder brother used to dislike my poor writing. I practiced it for a few days and wanted to show it to him and let me see that I have made progress!" Zhu Yili raised his chest high, and then smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a slit. "I'm not lazy now, and I can be lazy when I'm in the future. When I want to sleep, I can sleep until I want to sleep until I can!"

Empress Li suddenly changed her expression. She had only two sons in total, but she was much luckier than other concubines. However, for the sake of her eldest son, she almost had no time to pay attention to the second son in Cining Palace. Now the second son said to her, how could she bear it? Almost subconsciously, she shouted sternly: "How old are you? Who said you want to go to the second son? Who!"

Zhu Yili was shaking directly by Empress Dowager Li's roar, and explained hurriedly: "I just heard someone else mention it casually, and then I realized that the princes and brothers all want to be in the vassal state. Mother, don't be angry, I won't talk about it in the future..."

If you don’t talk about King Lu, you can’t be a vassal? Even if the emperor agrees, those ministers will not be able to agree. Not to mention, Zhu Yijun dares to be like her now and dares to say that. How could he not let his younger brother become a vassal in order to treat his younger brother well? How could he be able to stand up to those ministers?

Seeing the subtle expression of Empress Dowager Li, Feng Bao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. At least, his first move was right! (To be continued.)
