Chapter 9 Being kicked out of the imperial city(1/2)
The ministers in the court exposed Zhou Cheng's evil deeds so openly and openly, which was tantamount to putting Lao Zhu at the stake.
Everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty knew that Zhou Cheng was a capable general newly promoted by Lao Zhu. Now this memorial is just to test Lao Zhu's reaction to Zhou Cheng.
Lao Zhu Han said: "Then, in your opinion, how should Zhou Cheng deal with it?"
Hu Weiyong immediately stood up and said through gritted teeth: "Zhou Cheng has done many evil things. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, he should be whipped a hundred times, dismissed from his official title, and expelled from the imperial city as punishment."
Lao Zhu smiled coldly in his heart, he was really kicked out of the imperial city! This Hu Weiyong didn't take us seriously at all!
Zhou Cheng was recommended by Lao Zhu to be the Tutor. Now that he was impeached, it was like giving Lao Zhu a loud slap in the face.
Lao Zhu sneered: "I think Zhou Cheng's punishment is too light. Shouldn't a person like him be dragged to the Meridian Gate and executed in order to satisfy everyone?"
Hearing this, Hu Weiyong trembled all over, immediately knelt down on the ground, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, I just want to make decisions for my severely injured child. The dog is seriously injured and is bedridden. I hope the Emperor can
I seek justice for Zhou Cheng, and I hope the emperor can uphold justice for us, mother and son!"
Lao Zhu held his forehead and said helplessly: "Hu Xiang, I told you yesterday. This matter is my dereliction of duty. Do you still need me to go to your son's bedside to apologize to him in person?"
Hu Weiyong said tremblingly: "I don't dare! However, Zhou Cheng cannot escape the blame. Please punish Zhou Cheng severely and don't let us down!"
Hearing Hu Weiyong's words, Lao Zhu was furious: "How dare you threaten me like this?"
Zhu Biao immediately stood up and said: "Prime Minister Hu, this matter has nothing to do with Zhou Cheng. I led the sergeants to come to do something for the emperor, but I was stopped by Master Ling, and there was a conflict between the two parties."
"If Hu Xiangruo doesn't believe it, he can go to the city to investigate. If he really wants to pursue it, don't blame me!"
"I will come to your door now to apologize to your son."
Hearing these words, Hu Weiyong was almost fainted from fright.
From this perspective, Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao were determined to protect Zhou Cheng.
What kind of medicine did this old Zhu family couple get drugged by that thief Zhou Cheng? How could they have so much energy?
"How dare my subordinates do this! It's not Zhou Cheng, a bastard, who dares to do this!"
"Hu Weiyong!" Lao Zhu roared angrily. Do you still want to pursue this matter? Do you still want my son to come and apologize in person?"
Hu Weiyong knelt on the ground tremblingly: "The general doesn't dare! I don't dare."
"What? You have the free time to question Zhou Cheng, but don't you have the free time to help me deal with things in the river?"
"Within three days, within three days, has the cause of the Yellow River Battle been found out? Is it because Jiangcheng's management is incompetent, or is there someone who has been corrupted and accepted bribes?"
"Zhou Cheng is a refugee in Huaixi now. They are raising food for us. But what have you done? What's going on? You just don't care about the affairs in the court, but you stalk Zhou Cheng all day long.
,What’s your intention?”
Lao Zhu angrily threw the memorial in his hand on the table.
All the ministers in the court were stunned by this scene and fell to their knees one after another, not daring to make a sound.
Before, they had passionately criticized Zhou Cheng's various crimes in front of Lao Zhu, but as soon as they talked about Jiang He, they were immediately speechless.
"Zhou Cheng is doing an important thing for me now. If anyone dares to blame Zhou Cheng, I will never let him go!"
"Song Lian, shut up!" But is there anything you want to report?"
Song Lian was so excited that he quickly took back the copy of the document accusing Zhou Cheng in his hand.
"I, I didn't say anything." After Song Lian finished speaking, he even wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
Now that Zhou Cheng is the emperor's most favored person, is anyone still willing to go against him?
Hearing Lao Zhu's words, Hu Weiyong was filled with anger and fear.
The emperor and the prince protected Zhou Cheng in every possible way, which made it even harder for him to let go.
Since there was no way to question Zhou Cheng face to face, she had to question Zhou Cheng behind his back.
Hu Weiyong's face is getting more and more ugly, and his face is getting more and more ugly.
………………
.........Inside Shanglin Garden.
When Zhou Cheng rushed to Shanglin Garden with 3,000 personal guards, the hundreds of personal guards guarding the Yamen were already frightened.
What does this mean?
How can we fight against armored warriors?
Captain Zhou Huang dismounted his horse and said in a cold voice: "Quickly pass the order and invite Taifu Zhou here."
Several soldiers immediately put away their weapons and knelt on the ground, while Song Qing inside also quickly took her official hat and ran out.
"Song Qing, my subordinate, went to Shanglin Garden to see Taifu Zhou. "It turns out that Taifu Zhou is here. It's really disrespectful, disrespectful, disrespectful!"
Zhou Cheng sat on the horse, glanced at Song Qing disdainfully and said, "Is this your shopkeeper's?"
"I am responsible for handling all matters in Shanglinyuan."
Before Song Qing finished speaking, Zhou Cheng waved to the soldiers behind him, and then shouted loudly: "Let's set fire to this forest together!"
"???"
Everyone was confused!
This is the Imperial Garden, and you only have a torch like this?
Song Qing was suddenly startled and looked at Xu Que in disbelief. He waved his sleeves and shouted: "Master Zhou, how can this be cremated? The Imperial Garden is a symbol of imperial power. You, you, have you ever put the emperor free?"
Do you put the imperial power in your eyes?"
Seeing Song Qing collapsed on the ground, crying and screaming, Zhou Cheng rolled his eyes and took out the token given by the emperor.
"The emperor has a decree. From now on, I will be the general manager of Shanglin Garden. As the chief manager of Shanglin Garden, you should go back and hold your son."
Song Qing looked at the token in Zhou Cheng's hand and was stunned.
The empress asked people to set fire to fire? What kind of truth is this?
Zhou Cheng ignored Song Qing, but Zhou Huang remained calm and ordered: "Zhou Qianhu, order people to burn the area on the west side of Shanglin Garden for me! I won't be able to see you within three days.
Any tree in Shanglin Garden! Do you understand?"
Soldiers must obey orders!
They will never have the slightest doubt about Zhou Cheng's orders!
Zhou Huang clasped his fists and said: "I will obey your orders! The others are carrying torches and follow me!"
Three thousand infantrymen were divided into east and west sides, and the imperial garden, which spanned more than fifty miles, was flooded by a sea of fire following Zhou Cheng's order!
The flame was like a long poisonous snake, flying in the air, reflecting the red maple leaves all over the sky.
The imperial garden that was finally built was destroyed!
Seeing the fire raging, Song Qing's eyes darkened and she said urgently: "Notify the emperor quickly, notify the emperor quickly!"
In the main hall.
Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao chatted until midnight.
Lao Zhu looked at the map of the earth drawn by Zhou Cheng on the table and said in surprise: "You mean that map of the earth was drawn by him?"
"Father, this is what Teacher Zhou taught us."
Lao Zhu thought in his heart that if his painting was correct, it would prove that he was a person of future generations.
"What else did Zhou Cheng say to everyone during class?"
"Master Zhou said that our Ming Dynasty's top priority is to build a shipyard and cultivate a navy! When we develop a strong navy and build a huge warship, we can go to those unexplored areas of Zhou Dynasty.
."
"Not only does this place contain a large amount of mineral deposits, but it also produces a large amount of food and fruits. If we can bring this kind of vegetables and food back to the Ming Dynasty, our people will never be hungry."
Lao Zhu took a deep breath and then came back to his senses.
He never expected that Zhou Cheng would set a goal for Ming Dynasty's development plan for the next hundred years.
For such a grand plan, Lao Zhu felt that if Zhou Cheng was a descendant, would it still be justified?
Seeing the distance between Ming Dynasty and the two countries, Lao Zhu suddenly felt worried in his heart.
"With such a long journey, I'm afraid they will die before we get there."
Zhu Biao said in panic: "It's my fault, it's my fault."
Lao Zhu asked: "Boy, are you afraid of us?"
Zhu Biao glanced at Lao Zhu in surprise and shook his head, "My father also does good for me. How can I complain?"
Lao Zhu now finally understands why Zhou Cheng said that Zhu Biao's death was because of him.
Zhu Biao is always on tenterhooks in front of him. How can he not be depressed or sick?
Lao Zhu tried his best to squeeze out a smile and said to Zhu Biao: "From now on, we will use smiles to communicate with you. Between you and me, we can talk freely without being bound by etiquette."
Zhu Biao was stunned.
What's going on? Why, why is there such a change?
