Domineering Daming

After thinking about it for a long while, King Jing sighed, looked at the sky outside, and said, "Go and find out, have the elders entered the palace yet? Look at Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. I will ask him to go with him later." .”

"My lord, the lower officials have already checked, Sun Baigu is in the palace, and Zhang Shangshu has already gone." The head inspector said.

Prince Jing looked up at him unexpectedly, shook his head and said, "You're quite accurate, what else did you do?"

The head of the inspection department smiled and said: "The lower officials have already sent people to watch the Erguo government."

King Jing gave him a meaningful look, stood up and said, "Since you have made all the arrangements, this king will not say anything more. Remember, unless it is absolutely necessary, without this king's order, you must not arrest anyone, especially Don't offend the two Dukes! If they go to the imperial court to complain, no matter what the reason, the emperor will call his own family to show to outsiders, you know?"

The head of the inspection department immediately raised his hand and said, "I understand, and I will act cautiously."

Prince Jing nodded and took a breath.Quickly changed into court clothes and walked outside.The old bureaucrats of the Governor's Council are more tactful than him, and they will not give people an excuse for everything, so he is relieved.

When Prince Jing left the Governor's Court, he immediately felt countless eyes looking over him. It was obvious that the news had already spread in a short period of time, and everything that should be known was already known.

"Let's go." Prince Jing said with an expressionless expression on his face.He had already guessed that it was probably the fault of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and now he had no choice but to deal with it as soon as possible.

The groom who was driving quickly responded and drove towards the palace.

At the same time, Zhu Chunchen, Duke of Cheng, Xu Yunzhen, Duke of Ding, and Zhang Weixian, Duke of England, were gathering at Duke Ding's mansion to discuss "major events".

Zhu Chunchen was quite excited, and said: "Two, not many, I raised 3 taels last night, and with the two of you, it's not difficult to make up 10 taels."

Xu Yunzhen's face was flushed, and he was in high spirits, and said: "I have already obtained the approval from the International Trade Bureau. I bought twenty fabric workshops in Suzhou, all of which are of high-quality craftsmanship. If I can sell them to those red-haired ghosts , Once you change hands, it will be ten times the profit!"

Zhang Weixian originally wanted to go along with Zhu Xu's strategy, to rectify Xun Qing's order, but he didn't expect these two to be really handy, and now they put him on the crater.

Zhang Weixian is well aware of the temperament of the man in the Qianqing Palace, so he has always been careful, and disagrees with the success and appointment of the two princes who are too prominent, but these two were wronged in the "decoration case", and they want to make up for it, desperately planning How to make money.

"The location of the firm will be placed in the Shenlong Mansion as previously discussed. We will watch from a distance and leave it to the people below to take care of it. Just wait for the money to be collected."

"That's right, it just so happens that there is still a lack of a side concubine in my mansion, so I took the opportunity to make up for it!"

"Don't tell me I forgot. Didn't the court give me a favor? You can advance the court's annual salary for the next ten years in one lump sum, and we all get it!"

"Yes, if you get it, you can't make the court feel better!"

"Okay, let's go to the household department later!"

Zhang Weixian shook his head secretly when he heard this, these two are still full of resentment, something will happen if this continues.

Outside the door, Guanshi Li turned his back to the door, looking outside with his usual expression - the news from the Governor's Council has not yet come.

As soon as Prince Jing arrived at the gate of the palace, when he got off the carriage, he met someone unexpectedly.

Zhang Guogong, Zhang Guoji.

This is the biological father of the current empress dowager. The current emperor was raised by the empress dowager and raised under her shelter. It is a relationship between a sister-in-law and a mother. The status of this duke is naturally even more unusual and cannot be neglected.

King Jing stepped forward first, raised his hand, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang Guogong is going to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager?"

Zhang Guogong is not familiar with Prince Jing, seeing him being so polite, he also raised his hand, and said with a smile: "The queen mother said that she is here to cleanse me, so I have to come."

Prince Jing glanced at the early morning sky, his heart moved slightly, and he walked forward hand in hand: "Xiao Wang is just going to the cabinet, my lord, let's talk while walking."

Zhang Guoji heard that there was something in King Jing's words, he glanced at him calmly, and said with a smile: "My lord, please."

The two walked side by side, and after a while, Zhang Guogong's expression changed slightly, and he remained silent.

Prince Jing told him about the "murder case" of Duke Ding's son, and at the same time he understood why the prince wanted to tell him this.

Even so, Zhang Guoji still opened his mouth and said: "My lord, do you want to tell the emperor through my mouth?"

Prince Jing did not shy away, and said: "Yes. After thinking about it, Xiao Wang is the only one who is suitable. This matter concerns the emperor's state affairs and the stability of the court. You need to know the emperor's attitude before you can deal with it."

Although Zhang Guoji has been in the capital for a long time, he is far away from the imperial court, and he does not understand many things. He is dubious about King Jing's words, so he evades and says, "Okay, when I see the emperor later, I will tell you whether it will be useful or not. I can't guarantee it."

Prince Jing was troubled by this all the way, he was overjoyed when he heard it, raised his hand and said, "Please trouble me, my lord, if there is any trouble in your house in the future, just talk to Xiao Wang."

Zhang Guoji couldn't afford Prince Jing's great gift, so he said hastily, "Your Highness is polite, it's what should be done."

While Prince Jing was talking with Zhang Guoji, Zhang Wenda in the cabinet was taken aback.

He looked at Sun Chuanting and said in surprise: "You mean, Liang Chengyong is the favorite student of Mr. Bi Ge?"

Sun Chuanting already knew the cause and effect of this matter, and said with a great headache: "Well, not many people know about this matter, and it was because Mr. Bi Ge and I accidentally said something about it two days ago."

The government of the two countries, a closed disciple of the "Shoufu", this case is getting more and more troublesome.

Zhang Wenda was thinking like a fox, and immediately said in a low voice: "Then, does the emperor know that there is something wrong with Liang Chengyong, so he deliberately suppressed the appointment of the 22nd inspector censor?"

Sun Chuanting also reacted abruptly, frowned tightly, feeling uneasy, shook his head and said: "If there are only one or two, the emperor will not deliberately suppress them, I am afraid there are still many problems that we have not discovered."

Zhang Wenda immediately came to his senses, feeling chills all over his body.

The person in Qianqing Palace is not Wanli, let alone Tianqi, so it is extremely difficult to be targeted by him!

Chapter 938

Sun Chuanting and Zhang Wenda looked at each other and remained silent for a long time.

The reason why the cabinet asked for power from the Qianqing Palace and dared to weaken the centralization of the six ministries was to clarify the administration of officials, promote the "New Deal" more vigorously, and complete the task of "Reviving the Ming Dynasty".

This batch of appointed officials is the first large-scale appointment led by the cabinet. If something goes wrong, how can their cabinet have the face to demand power from the Qianqing Palace in the future?And face grabbing the personnel rights of the Ministry of Officials?The prestige of the cabinet will plummet, and the impact on the cabinet and the court will be even more immeasurable.

After a while, Prince Jing arrived.

This time, there were three people who were silent. The Supervisory Council was responsible for supervising all the officials. Whether it was the young masters of the two princes fighting in a brothel and killing people, or Liang Chengyong's malpractice for personal gain, the Supervisory Council was responsible. Also in the cabinet.

"Wait." After a while, Sun Chuanting said.

The other two nodded. This matter fell on the head of the cabinet and must be handled as soon as possible and prudently.

Suddenly, Zhang Wenda said again: "It is estimated that there is already an uproar outside, I am afraid that the government of the two countries will not be calm, we must deal with it as soon as possible, and we cannot be preempted."

Prince Jing looked at him meaningfully, and said, "That's right, they probably will rush into the palace to plead guilty. If our cabinet is slow, it may cause the emperor to think otherwise."

Zhang Wenda naturally knew the meaning in Prince Jing's gaze, and said calmly, "I suggest that you send someone to invite the two lords into the cabinet to 'inquire' together."

The word "inquiry" is very particular. It can be said to be a simple conversation, or it can be said to be an investigation inquiry. The key depends on how to understand it.

Sun Chuanting and Zhang Wenda had a deep understanding of Zhang Wenda's cunning, looked at Prince Jing, and said, "What does the lord mean?"

King Jing said: "Let them bring the two young princes with them."

This is also what should be done, Sun Chuanting nodded slightly, turned to the outside and said: "The order from the cabinet secretary, please Ding Guogong, Cheng Guogong, Xu Huazhi, and Zhu Yingyou enter the palace without delay."

"Yes."
