Chapter 66: Confrontation


Zhu Xu looked at him, took a sip of tea gently, and said lightly: "Lord Zhang, the tea in the military department is all old tea, right?"

Go to me in a few days, this king has the queen's reward for the tribute tea, give you a few catties. ” Zhang Heming had already guessed Zhu Xu's intention, and his brows furrowed slightly when he listened to his words.

However, after all, he is an old fritter who has been in the officialdom for a long time, raised his head and looked at Zhu Xu and said: "Thank Your Highness for your kindness, this official is honest, this kind of tea is just right, and the tribute tea should be used by the emperor." ” Zhu Xu raised his eyebrows, is this a blatant provocation to me?

He looked up at Zhang Heming, the corners of his mouth curled up, with a hint of a nonchalant smile.

Zhang Heming already had a plan in his heart, no matter whether His Royal Highness King Hui was sent by the queen mother or not, leading troops to trespass into the military department is a big 'criminal evidence', and even the excerpt in his heart has been completed.

The lobby was very weird, Zhu Xu smiled and didn't speak, Zhang Heming was holding the ticket to victory, no one spoke, and the quiet needle drop could be heard.

And at this time, at the back of the lobby, a middle-aged man with an elegant look, dressed in a cyan robe, quietly walked over, sat down silently and leaned his ear to the wall, listening quietly.

After a long time, Zhang Heming was old after all, and he couldn't support it.

He looked up at Zhu Xu, his face deliberately showed a trace of impatience, and said, "I don't know what your Highness has to order from my military department?"

” Zhu Xu picked up the teacup again and said with a light smile: "I want to change the tea for adults." ” Zhang Heming looked at the calm and calm Zhu Xu, and suddenly felt that something was wrong in his heart, but no matter what, with the handle in his hand, he was not afraid of Zhu Xu, and said with a rather rigid face: "The affairs of the military department, don't worry about His Royal Highness King Hui." ” "Your Highness, the man has been found."

As soon as Zhang Heming's voice fell, a big internal guard hurriedly came to report.

Then, a row of internal guards escorted Zhang Guoji in.

When Zhang Guoji saw that above the lobby, it was actually the young His Royal Highness King Hui, and he was shocked, and hurriedly walked over and said, "His Royal Highness King Hui......"

Zhu Xu saw that he was just a little embarrassed and there was no other major problem, so he waved his hand and said with a smile: "Grandpa sit down for a while, this king and Zhang Shangshu have something to discuss." ” Zhang Guoji looked at Zhu Xu stunned, the queen mother submitted in his ear more than once that His Royal Highness King Hui was young and extremely intelligent, did he get the queen's permission to come this time?

If the excuse of a foreign relative interfering in politics or the vassal king's abuse of power is seized by the foreign minister, it will be another reproach.

He opened his mouth to say something, but saw Zhu Xu stand up, looked at Zhang Heming, and said with a sense of majesty in his indifference: "Zhang Shangshu, do you know what kind of crime it is to privately detain the prince of the dynasty and plot against him?"

” Zhang Heming had the ticket in his hand, glanced at Zhang Guoji, and said indifferently: "His Royal Highness King Hui is wrong, Zhang Guogong is just a mistake, and this king is preparing to send Guogong back in person." ” Zhu Xu hated this kind of self-righteous old bureaucrat the most, smiled indifferently, and said, "Since Master Zhang said so, this king will also believe it."

However, privately detaining the prince of the dynasty is like a rebellion, and it is not something that the king can believe in it. ” Zhang Heming looked up at Zhu Xu, and just wanted to refute, Zhu Xu said loudly to the internal guards not far behind him: "Come, according to the order of this king, notify the other five Shangshu, the Imperial History of the Left and Right of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Dali Temple, the General Political Envoy, and the Cabinet."

It is said that Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of War, together with a cadre from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, privately detained Zhang Guogong, the biological father of the queen's mother, and wanted to falsely accuse the queen's mother, shake the middle palace, and rebel.

Let them come to the hall of this military headquarters to see the king and deal with it together. ” As soon as Zhu Xu's voice fell, Zhang Heming suddenly became angry, pointed at Zhu Xu and said angrily, "His Royal Highness King Hui, you are framing, the vassal king falsely accused you of being an important minister of the dynasty, aren't you afraid that this official will sue you in front of the emperor?"

” Zhu Xu stretched out his hand, took the herbal fold prepared by the Metropolitan Procuratorate from Cao Wenzhao's hand, handed it to Zhang Heming, and said, "Do you want to take a look at it?"

” Zhang Heming stretched out his hand to take it and sneered: "His Royal Highness King Hui, today's affairs will never be interrupted, and he will definitely refer to you to the emperor at the court meeting." ” "Lord Zhang, you might as well take a look first."

Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back, and his expression became colder and colder.

Zhang Heming glanced at Zhu Xu, opened the fold and looked at it, and his face suddenly changed slightly.

This is the excerpt drafted by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the impeachment of Zhang Guoji, and most importantly, under the excerpt, there is a list of all those who are ready to be jointly impeached this time!

Zhu Xu looked at Zhang Heming's changing expression, and sneered, "Lord Zhang, now you still say that you are not premeditated?"

” The corners of Zhang Heming's face twitched slightly, hating the gang of people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate to death, and doing things so carelessly, so that people grabbed the handle.

However, in his opinion, the crime of leading troops to trespass on the military department is even greater, and he looked at Zhu Xu and sneered: "His Royal Highness King Hui, no matter where you find this thing, this official will not recognize it."

If you trespass into the military department today, you must make it clear in front of the emperor. ” Zhu Xu looked at Zhang Heming, who was messing around and refusing to admit his account, and finally knew in his heart that above the court, there would be inexplicable things like the court staff.

If you don't fight, you can't do it!

But Zhu Xu didn't have the heart to entangle with him, took a step back and sat on the chair, waiting for a reply from those people.

Seeing that Zhu Xu did not chase and fight, Zhang Heming was a little calm, thinking about how to erase the influence of this book and continue their plan.

"Your Excellency."

Behind the lobby, a middle-aged man wearing a five-grade official uniform walked to Sun Chengzong's side with tea and said in a low voice.

Sun Chengzong chucked slightly, took the teacup, sat on the chair, and listened outside with his ears pricked up while sipping tea.

In the lobby, everyone had their own concerns, no one spoke, but the middle-aged man behind the lobby looked at Sun Chengzong, and said in a low voice: "My lord, how should this matter be ended?"

” Sun Chengzong, one of the representatives of the Donglin Party, shook his head slightly.

The middle-aged man realized that they only knew about this matter and did not participate in it, and now that His Royal Highness King Hui has seized the handle, they can no longer come forward.

After a long time, the guards sent out came to report one after another.

"Returning to His Highness, the officials replied, they have no right to deal with it, and it should be handled by the Criminal Department."

"Returning to His Royal Highness, the Criminal Department replied that this matter should be handed over to Dali Temple for trial."

"Back to His Royal Highness, Dali Temple replied, this matter should be judged by His Majesty and handed over to the three divisions for trial."

"Returning to Your Highness, the cabinet will reply, and it should be decided by the court."

"Back to Your Highness, the Ministry of Rites will reply ......"

Zhu Xu listened to the uninterrupted returns, his expression remained unchanged, in fact, he had expected that as long as he was a little smarter, he would not be involved at this time, and his ability to shirk was vividly revealed.

However, Zhu Xu would not let them shirk it so easily, looked at Zhang Heming, and smiled slightly, "What else does Lord Zhang say?"

” Zhang Heming knew that he was probably going to be unlucky this time, those who wanted to drive him out of power must have been eager to write the impeachment excerpt at this time, but he thought that he had done nothing wrong, and said coldly: "This official is the secretary of the Ministry of War, and the conviction can only be carried out by the emperor, and now, this official asks to see the emperor!"
