Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

In fact, Li Miao could also deal with Empress Dowager Zhang now and wait until the previous court agreed to Prime Minister Wang's intention to thoroughly investigate the Zhang family. However, Li Miao felt that since he was the emperor now, he should be eloquent and not go back on his words. The Queen Mother promised her in front of her, saying that she would stop the ministers from thoroughly investigating the Zhang family, but in the end, they asked someone to investigate the Zhang family. It was really not the right thing for a person to go back on her word, so even though she knew that she did not agree to the Queen Mother Zhang's proposal at this time, she might be against the Queen Mother Zhang's suggestion. His personal safety was affected, but Li Miao still said so.

Of course, the main reason is that he believes that the people arranged by An Ran will protect his safety - ever since Queen Mother Zhang drove away the people An Ran gave him, An Ran arranged for people to secretly protect him with Li Miao's consent.

However, Li Confucius believed that Queen Mother Zhang would not be stupid enough to catch her and threaten the previous dynasty. Unless the Zhang family wanted to rebel, otherwise she would one day be settled by the queen.

After hearing what Li Miao said, the Empress Dowager Zhang knew that what Li Miao said was reasonable, but if she wanted to be reasonable, she also asked Li Miao to order not to allow Dali Temple to investigate anything, so naturally she was acting rogue, and immediately said angrily: "Emperor, this is wrong Are you going to cause trouble for the Zhang family?"

Li Feng said: "It's not that I want to cause trouble for the Zhang family, but the Zhang family caused it themselves."

Seeing that she could not convince Li Miao, the Empress Dowager Zhang sneered: "If you want to tear down the river and demolish the bridge, you are not afraid of the Zhang family falling. No one in the court will protect you. How will you deal with the civil and military officials of the court? One or two of them are not vegetarians." of!"

This is indeed what Li Confucius is afraid of, but now he can't stand the Zhang family's control over him. Who let the Zhang family control him? It is full control from the court to the palace. There is no freedom at all. How can this make people Can you bear it?

In fact, it was the Zhang family, especially the Queen Mother Zhang, who was too crazy. She was not satisfied with controlling the government, and wanted to control everything about Li Miao. It is normal for this to cause Li Miao's rebellious psychology.

So Li Miao immediately said: "I don't need to worry about this."

Empress Dowager Zhang saw that Li Feng really didn't want to listen to her, so she finally panicked. If the soft one didn't work, she would be tough. She used both soft and hard tactics to hide the needle in the skin and said, "You have to do this and go against the Zhang family. Could it be that the Zhang family is It's easy to offend. If the Zhang family is fine by then, it will be your Majesty who will be in trouble. For the sake of our mother and son, the Ai family advises Your Majesty to stop it! To avoid bringing trouble to yourself."

This means Hong Guoguo's threat, that is to say, if you dare to attack the Zhang family, if the Zhang family is not defeated, they will deal with you then.

After hearing what Empress Dowager Zhang said, Li Miao not only was not threatened, but on the contrary, he became angry.

Then he snorted coldly and said, "Then we'll see!"

Then he walked away.

Queen Mother Zhang became even more panicked when she saw that Li Miao was not threatened by her and left. However, she did not dare to do extreme things, such as sending someone to stop Li Miao, seize Li Miao and threaten the previous court, so she could only let Li Miao leave.

The reason why Queen Mother Zhang did not dare to do extreme things is normal.

Even if the Zhang family falls, she is the Queen Mother, and even if she is treated coldly in the future, she is still the Queen Mother. Li Miao does not dare to do anything to her, otherwise it will be bad if her reputation as unfilial is spread.

In this way, as long as she does not commit any treason, her future status can still be guaranteed. In this case, she will not have the courage to fight to the death.

But looking at Li Miao's appearance, Queen Mother Zhang knew that the Zhang family was afraid that the situation was going to be bad. She couldn't help but look ugly at the moment, thinking that Li Miao was an incompetent person, wasn't he? How could he bring down his own family within a year? Did you make a mistake?

No, it's not that I made a mistake. The key is that my mother's family is too incompetent and did all kinds of things to give Li Miao a handle, so that Li Miao didn't have to do anything. As long as he relied on these, he could take down the Zhang family. .

Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help but feel angry at her parents' family. She thought about how she had worked so hard in the palace and had finally conquered the country, but they had ruined it like this. After only one year of glory, she was brought back to her original form. Thinking about it, Not willing to give in.

But no matter how unwilling she was, it was useless, because since she persuaded Li Miao to no avail, news came from the previous court not long ago that Li Miao agreed to Prime Minister Wang's proposal to conduct a thorough investigation of the Zhang family.

Soon, the three departments of Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate conducted a joint investigation to thoroughly investigate the Zhang family's violations of law and discipline.

Soon, Zhang Moumou invaded people's fields, Mr. Zhang robbed others of huge amounts of property and beat people to death. Mr. Zhang used tricks to frame his colleagues, which led to the late emperor confiscating their homes and beheading them. It was exposed one by one.

The more they investigated, the more things the Zhang family had committed. There were countless cases of lawsuits being taken over by all members of the Zhang family, and there were even more instances of usury and exploitation. They were all based on the fact that the Zhang family was a wealthy family and that the Queen Mother Zhang had a distinguished status in the palace. , act boldly.

The crimes committed by the Zhang family were sorted out and bound into a book, weighing dozens of kilograms.

When the new emperor saw the numerous crimes committed by the Zhang family, he became furious and claimed that the Zhang family had betrayed the emperor's favor. He immediately revoked the title of Duke Chengen of the Zhang family, ransacked the family's home to investigate, and ordered a department to deal with it according to the results of the three-division review.

Afterwards, Empress Dowager Zhang claimed to be ill and thanked the guests behind closed doors.

The Zhang family also did not expect that their own family supported the new emperor to ascend the throne, but less than a year later, he was beaten into the ground by the new emperor. When he was taken away by the Third Division, Mr. Zhang sneered and said to Prime Minister Wang: "Prime Minister, today By treating me like this, do you know what will happen to the Prime Minister in the future? When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden; when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dogs are cooked. Doesn’t the Prime Minister not know this truth, and clearly left me to fight with the Prime Minister? Under balance, no one would dare to be a new emperor. Move, this situation is the best. It's a pity that the prime minister was so fascinated by wealth that he thought it was best for you to fight the Zhang family. He spared no effort to target the Zhang family. If the Zhang family is gone, no one will balance you. You will be the one in the future. The new emperor is a thorn in his side, I want to see how long you can be proud of yourself."

Prime Minister Wang said calmly: "As long as I don't do anything illegal or criminal, Your Majesty is a benevolent king and will not do anything to me."

Mr. Zhang sneered and said: "Don't you think you will be punished if you want to? Why bother? How can the Prime Minister be so naive!"

"That's my business, don't worry about it, sir."

Seeing that Prime Minister Wang was unmoved, Mr. Zhang had no choice but to leave with hatred.

He originally thought that he was instigating the relationship between Prime Minister Wang and the new emperor. If Prime Minister Wang hesitated, maybe there would be a chance to reverse the matter. After all, he knew that these things were all caused by Prime Minister Wang. As long as he gave up this idea, There is still hope for everything. After all, the man surnamed Wang now has the power. If he is not willing to overthrow the Zhang family, he can find any reason and make another move, and the emperor will not dare to object. After all, the emperor has no power, he is just a human being. Puppet, you don't have to listen to Prime Minister Wang.

Unfortunately, Prime Minister Wang was unmoved and there was nothing he could do.
