Domineering Daming

Ever since Zhang Weixian met Zhu Xu, met Wei Guogong from Nanjing, and got the letter written by King Fu, he also met several people with the letter, and then hid in the mansion and never went out.

Whether it's his old generals, or the British public line, or other dignitaries, he hasn't seen any of them these days, although Zhu Xu let him keep everything as usual.

However, Zhao Nanxing's request to see him still made him frown.

In the study, Zhang Weixian stood at the desk, frowning tightly, with a solemn expression.

Opposite him stood the butler bowing, he looked at Zhang Weixian's expression, and said softly: "Master, it's best not to see you."

Zhang Weixian is now in a sensitive period. One bad thing is a serious crime against the Jiu Clan, so he needs to be extra careful.Zhao Nanxing and others are on the cusp of the storm, and if they are not careful, they will involve the British government.

Zhang Weixian's face was sharp, with the toughness of a soldier, he sighed lightly, and said: "I can see those subordinates, protect them, the emperor will not make things difficult for me, but, this Zhao Nanxing, I will see it if I don't see it."

The butler was startled, and said, "Master, what do you mean?"

Zhang Weixian shook his head slightly, didn't say much, and said, "Go and welcome him in, don't avoid it deliberately."

The butler hesitated, but still agreed to turn around and go out.

Zhang Weixian sat down, sighed helplessly, and said to himself: "They can't see clearly like flies scrambling around, but I, a sensible person, can't jump out... Your Majesty even knows that King Fu is passing letters around the bush, you are so blatant , can the emperor not see it? Self-inflicted evil, can't live..."

Zhao Nanxing was led by the butler and went all the way to Zhang Weixian's study.

He was thinking about how to persuade Zhang Weixian along the way. In his plan, Zhang Weixian was the most important and indispensable link!

Chapter 247

In the secret room, Zhao Nanxing and Zhang Weixian sat opposite each other.

Zhang Weixian looked calm, but his heart was bitter.He knew very well that Zhao Nanxing's character cannot be persuaded by words at all.

Zhao Nanxing looked at Zhang Weixian, his eyes were sharp, the corners of his face were like knives, and he said in a deep voice: "My lord, no one can see the situation of the Ming Dynasty more clearly than you. ’, Grandpa, would you like to lend a helping hand?”

Zhang Weixian thumped in his heart, guessing that Zhao Nanxing must have a big event, but he didn't expect it to be such a big event!

One of the bad things about the "moving palace case" is the serious crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the family. They could still have the righteousness to protect the "emperor", and the new emperor Zhu Youxiao would also support and appreciate it. Now the situation is completely different, and the object of persecution has become the emperor. , the object of help has become Zhu Youjian, the assistant king!

What a difference!

Zhang Weixian twitched with a half-smile on his face, suppressing his horror to calm himself down.

He is indeed the one who sees the most clearly. The new emperor seems to be messing around, but in fact he has a clear plan for every step, and every step is planned before moving, meticulous and safe.Not to mention that he has no military power now, even if he is still in charge of the central army, if he really wants to reproduce the palace transfer case, his head will fall to the ground if he doesn't enter the palace!

Zhang Weixian looked at Zhao Nanxing, struggled in his heart, and sighed: "Master Zhao, you are already over 70, why bother to get involved in party disputes, why don't you let go of everything, go home with peace of mind, and have your children and grandchildren around your knees to take care of yourselves? Wouldn't it be great?" good?"

Zhao Nanxing's eyes changed, and a stern look appeared on his thin face. He stared at Zhang Weixian and said in a cold voice: "My lord, I have waited for dozens of years for the sake of Daming. Seeing that Daming has fallen into the hands of a naughty boy, there are internal and external troubles. The subjugation of the country is just around the corner, so is it possible that we really have to sit idly by and fight our way to the top?"

The corners of Zhang Weixian's mouth twitched. He knew that he was definitely not as good as Zhao Nanxing when the corners of his mouth were sharp, but he also knew that every move of Zhao Nanxing and others was in the eyes of the new emperor. As long as there was another "moving palace case" , I'm afraid that the one in the palace won't be so tender anymore.

Thinking of the decades of friendship, Zhang Weixian gritted his teeth and said, "Master Zhao, one more piece of advice from Mr. Zhang, don't be impulsive, think twice before acting..."

A cold light flashed in Zhao Nanxing's eyes, and he said coldly: "Grandpa, is it possible that you plan to back down this time? You made great efforts in the case of moving the palace back then!"

Zhang Weixian frowned. The "moving palace case" seemed to be a glorious event, and it was a supreme honor in the eyes of scholars, but when it was investigated seriously, it was a treasonous act committed by the following people!

When Zhao Nanxing said this, he obviously wanted to tie him up. It was a good success this time, but if he failed, Zhang Weixian would not be able to escape!

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at Zhao Nanxing, and said lightly, "Let me think about it."

A smile flickered on the corner of Zhao Nanxing's mouth, and he nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for good news from Mr. Zhang."

Zhao Nanxing stood up, hunched over, and walked towards the secret room.

Zhang Weixian sent Zhao Nanxing away and stood under the eaves with a solemn face.

It is impossible for Zhu Xu in the palace not to know that Zhao Nanxing and others are so reckless, and he has a very bad premonition in his heart.

He was wrinkling his brows in distress when the butler hurried over and said in a hurry, "Master, some people from the Chinese army are here."

"My lord, my lord!"

As soon as the steward finished speaking, a group of soldiers in armor strode in, shouting eagerly.

Zhang Weixian's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Abandoning duty without permission, is this how Governor Cao disciplined you?"

The leader of the army joined the army laughing, holding the handle of the knife in his hand, and said: "Don't worry, my lord, Governor Cao left the city an hour ago, and he won't know that we came to see you."

"Yes, my lord, there is no need to worry, we are here for great things."

"That's right, Mr. Gao has delivered the letter, we are all here for the father-in-law..."

Those who came were all Zhang Weixian's subordinates for more than ten years, and several or even successive generations were loyal to the British Duke.

Zhang Weixian's heart turned cold, Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong and others were all over the capital to collude. If the emperor in the palace didn't know, he wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death. Especially at this time, Cao Wenzhao, who is in charge of the [-] patrol battalion, has actually left the city !

Zhang Weixian couldn't bear the involvement of these people, his face turned serious, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Go back to me, no..."

"Cough cough!"

Suddenly, a cough sounded diagonally opposite him, interrupting Zhang Weixian's stern shouting.

Looking at the person coming, Zhang Weixian's expression changed suddenly.

Not far away, Feng Zhu hugged Fu Chen, looking at him with a smile.

Zhang Weixian's whole body was cold, he looked at his group of old generals with a trembling voice, and said, "Bring them all into the secret room."

The group of people were overjoyed when they heard it, shouted, and went straight to Zhang Weixian's study with ease.

Feng Zhu walked over with a smile on his face, bowed slightly and said, "Your servant has seen the father-in-law."

Zhang Weixian recognized Feng Zhu, the corners of his face were stiff, and he said with a wry smile: "Perhaps the father-in-law is leaving the palace by order?"

Feng Zhu straightened up, and said with a smile all over his face, "My lord is thinking about it now, it's just that Eunuch Cao had a whim, and asked the miscellaneous family to come to the lord's mansion to show the emperor's favor."

Zhang Weixian naturally wouldn't believe it, he struggled and said: "Eunuch, my old generals are all rude hereditary children, they are loyal to the emperor and have no second thoughts..."

Feng Zhu flicked Fuchen, smiled more and said: "My lord, you can only know if you are loyal or not. The emperor said that you can protect two people at most."

The corners of Zhang Weixian's face twitched violently, suppressing the fear in his heart, he raised his hand and said: "Minister, obey the order!"

Feng Zhu looked at Zhang Weixian's purple face, moved closer, and said in a low voice: "My lord, you should know what you should do and what you should not do. The Xu family's glory is not so easy to enjoy."

The Xu family has two dukes, one is the founding duke, the other is the Jingnan duke, one is in Shuntian, and the other is in Yingtian.It can be said that this sect is extremely prominent and unparalleled in glory!

Zhang Weixian's heart shivered, and he bowed again and said: "I will save you as an officer, thank you for reminding me, father-in-law."

Feng Zhu nodded in satisfaction this time, turned and left.
