Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 34 The saddest person in the world (for collection)

In the court hall, Zhu Houzhao tried his best to restrain his inner anger and sat down on the dragon chair again.

boom!
He threw the Son of Heaven Sword heavily on the dragon case.

This Emperor's Sword hasn't had any blood on it for a long time.
Zhu Hou looked at the civil and military officials lying on the ground, and said, "Let's all get flat! Let me see your expressions, do you all hate me to death?"

"I dare not wait!"

Many people don't understand what Zhu Houzhao's words reveal. Is he saying the truth, or is he saying the truth?

However, after all, there were still some bold courtiers. They stood up first, followed by everyone standing up. After all, it is much more comfortable to listen to the training standing up than kneeling.

Some ministers looked up at Zhu Houzhao, and suddenly saw a murderous emperor above the court.

Some people see the Tianzi sword on it, and feel that their whole life has been darkened.

Inside the Xuanzheng Hall, needles could be heard falling, Zhu Houzhao was silent, and neither the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty dared to speak.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and said loudly: "Is there anything to play? If not, after this hour, I'm afraid there will be no more!"

"Maybe half an hour later, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect will be killed in the court. Who will see your memorabilia?"

"The ministers and others are not well escorted, and they deserve death!"

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knelt on the ground again, touching their heads to the ground, with an expression of sacrificing their lives, as if they could die instead of the emperor.

Only in this way can we see that they are loyal and patriotic.

"Let's play it!"

Zhu Houzhao didn't bother to see these courtiers pretending to be hypocritical, who can stand in the Xuanzheng Hall, who is not a scheming person?

As soon as Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty got up, and Liu Jian, the chief assistant of the cabinet, walked out of the class first, holding an ivory board and said: "Qi Zou Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"

Zhu Houzhao looked at him, and the anger in his heart had disappeared a lot.

"Prelude!"

"Qizou Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to pardon Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, and let him continue to be in charge of the East Factory."

As soon as Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, said these words, everyone in the court was shocked.

Everyone knew that the cabinet was at odds with Dongchang, so the chief assistant Liu Ge wanted to plead guilty to Cao Zhengchun?

The civil and military ministers looked at Liu Jian in puzzlement, and Zhu Houzhao said, "As the governor of the East Factory, Cao Zhengchun failed to find out the remnants of the White Lotus Sect in time. His crime is unforgivable, and he should be punished!"

Zhu Houzhao's voice sounded terrified to the other courtiers.

This Cao Zhengchun has always been His Majesty's minion, but if Cao Zhengchun messed up something, he would be executed.

For the first time, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty deeply felt what it means to be with a king like a tiger.

At this moment, Liu Jian raised his head, cupped his hands and said, "I would like to report to Your Majesty, I want to say a few words for Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory, and I ask Your Majesty to play it!"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jian condescendingly, and said, "Didn't you always want to pull Cao Zhengchun off the horse? Now that Cao Zhengchun has gone in, isn't it just in line with your wishes?"

"Your Majesty, although I have a disagreement with Governor Cao, I cannot deny that the Xichang under the command of Governor Cao is the institution with the widest information and the most means in my Ming Dynasty. Even Governor Cao himself , is also a high-strength martial arts, not inferior to ordinary masters."

"Now that the White Lotus Sect is causing trouble, the imperial court needs the manpower here in Xichang, so I must put aside my personal estrangement with Governor Cao and work together to deal with foreign forces."

Zhu Houzhao heard the words of the chief minister of the cabinet and said, "Zunzou, continue!"

When the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty heard Liu Jian's words, their expressions became subtle.

Does the Chief Assistant of the Cabinet want to show His Majesty a broad-mindedness, or does he want to borrow a boat to go to sea to rescue political enemies?
Cao Zhengchun is a boss of the West Factory, with a ruthless personality. After he comes out, he will not be grateful for others' help.

According to his character, even if the chief minister of the cabinet rescued him, he would take the opportunity to pull his pigtails in the future.

People in the world describe Cao Zhengchun as a tiger, a wolf, and a firewood leopard, which is not unreasonable.

However, this is what the emperor hoped for.

The Dongchang he wants is not a grateful Dongchang, but a Dongchang who is loyal to the imperial court like a dog.

If that day, the emperor no longer needs it, then there is no need for the East Factory to continue to exist.

In the court hall, Liu Jian stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I investigated the case of the remnants of the White Lotus Sect yesterday, and Cao Zhengchun has already deployed manpower inside. Among them, Qiaozhuang in Yuhuatian was instructed by Cao Zhengchun." "

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao frowned slightly, and asked:

"You mean that Yuhuatian Qiaozhuang was also ordered by Cao Zhengchun?"

"Exactly!"

"Xuan Yuhua Tian has an audience!"

"Xuanyuhuatian sees you!" A series of rooster-like voices resounded outside the entire palace.

Not long after, Yuhuatian appeared in the Xuanzheng Hall.

"Chen Yuhuatian, see Your Majesty!"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Yuhuatian condescendingly, and asked: "Yesterday you arranged people and horses at the party to prevent water leakage, did someone give you instructions?"

Yu Huatian raised his head to look at Zhu Houzhao, and said, "Your Majesty, Governor Cao found this matter. He said that the lights and fireworks are too close to the imperial palace. If there is a fire, it will bring disaster to the imperial palace and disturb the emperor, my minister." That's why Qiao Zhuang made a move and mixed in with the crowd."

Hearing what Yu Huatian said, Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly, and issued an order: "Pass down my order, and quickly bring Cao Zhengchun from the death row to meet me!"

"According to the order!"

Several Ouchi guards quickly went to the death row to extract Cao Zhengchun.

Zhu Hou took care of Liu Jian: "This alone is not enough to exempt Cao Zhengchun from the crime of dereliction of duty!"

As soon as Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, Li Dongyang, the second assistant to the cabinet, also came out to intercede for Cao Zhengchun.

"Your Majesty, I also plead for Governor Cao. I don't want to justify Cao Zhengchun's previous mistakes. I only hope that Governor Cao can command Xichang and wipe out the remnants of the White Lotus Sect! I promise not to allow the White Lotus Sect to assassinate Your Majesty again. "

When the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty heard Li Dongyang's words, they immediately understood.

It turned out that the cabinet justified Cao Zhengchun, not to do Cao Zhengchun any kindness, their intention was to restore the vitality of Dongchang, and use the knife of Cao Zhengchun, the governor of Dongchang, to assassinate the White Lotus Sect.

Everyone wants to understand one problem, the White Lotus Sect is their biggest enemy at present, and the conflict between the cabinet and eunuchs is no longer the main conflict.

Without Dongchang Cao Zhengchun, I am afraid it would be difficult to deal with the deeply rooted White Lotus Sect.

Inside the Xuanzheng Hall.

There was a burst of crying.

Before the person arrives, the sound arrives first.

There was a burst of crying: "Your Majesty, is Your Majesty not injured? The old minister is really heartbroken. I wish I could protect Your Majesty from the wind and rain, and I wish I could die myself."

"Your Majesty, I deserve death for my crimes!"

Cao Zhengchun wept and entered the Xuanzheng Hall, and just entered the main hall, he knelt down on the ground and passed out.

Civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty looked at Cao Zhengchun who had passed out, feeling extremely heartbroken, and immediately felt Cao Zhengchun rubbing against the ground
They also wanted to show off in front of the emperor to comfort His Majesty, but they couldn't do anything above the main hall abruptly.

They thought they had done a good job.

But I never thought that Cao Zhengchun could faint from crying. Compared with Cao Zhengchun's acting skills, it was far worse.

Even, everything in front of them gave them enough reasons to believe that Cao Zhengchun was the saddest person in the world when His Majesty was assassinated.

Zhu Hou took care of Cao Zhengchun's performance in the hall, although he knew that it was Cao Zhengchun's performance for him, but he felt inexplicably happy in his heart.

This Cao Zhengchun, even if he was pretending, at least he was pretending to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Zhu Houzhao made Zhu Houzhao laugh a bit.

Cao Zhengchun is simply a living treasure of mine, if I kill him, wouldn't my life be much less fun?
