Chapter 313

After Lian Qiao heard the words, she opened her mouth to tell what she had seen and heard in the makeup shop, and said to Zhang Jin and Zhu Lin on her delicate pretty face, "Madam, If that Mrs. Lin didn't lie, I'm afraid that someone really wants to frame Young Master behind his back!"

After hearing Lianqiao's words, both Zhang Jin and Zhu Lin's expressions became solemn.

The second daughter was born in a duke's family, especially the first daughter of the family. The education she received since she was a child was different from ordinary people's families. Therefore, Zhu Lin and Zhang Jin only listened to Forsythia's words. Pay attention immediately.

Although Feng said that her background was not outstanding, she did have some insight. She knew very well that her two daughters-in-law were not ordinary women, and behind them were the family of the Duke of the Ming Dynasty, which had been established for hundreds of years, so she said At this moment Feng said to the second daughter: "Jin'er, Lin'er, what should you say about this matter, do you want to send someone to inform Huan'er immediately so that he can take precautions?"

Zhang Jin and Zhu Lin looked at each other, and Zhang Jin said slowly: "Mother, this matter must not be underestimated. The meritorious deeds done by the husband this time can be said to be rare in the country. Some people may want to target the husband. It's not that simple, you have to know that today's people are not people who don't know right from wrong, and if they want to frame Xianggong, it depends on whether they have this ability."

Zhu Lin nodded aside and said: "Our Li family can't be framed by anyone who wants to be framed. Is it true that His Majesty's favor is gone?"

As the daughters of the duke of the state, they are naturally more transparent than anyone else. With Li Huan's current high position, it is not so easy to frame Li Huan. Otherwise, as long as there is the trust of the emperor, no one can frame Li Huan.

After hearing what Zhang Jin and Zhu Lin said, Feng's heart was slightly relieved, but she still said with a bit of worry: "Then send someone to tell Huan'er to be more careful."

Zhang Jin said with a smile on his face: "Mother, don't worry, we will send someone to deliver a letter to Xianggong."

After that, Zhang Jin and Zhu Lin stayed to accompany Feng Shi for dinner, and then they talked with Feng Shi for a while, and then the two daughters took their leave.

After leaving the courtyard where the Feng family lived, Zhang Jin's eyes fell on Zhu Lin and said: "Although what Lianqiao said just now is not based on evidence, it can't be ignored. This kind of matter should be discussed with the princes and lords of the state. Just mention it."

Zhu Lin nodded slightly and said, "Before it's too late, I'll go back to my father's house and tell my father about it."

Zhang Jin slightly nodded and said, "I'm going to see my eldest nephew too."

British government
Looking at Zhang Jin, Zhang Lun couldn't help being quite surprised and said: "Why does my aunt have time to go back to the mansion? Could it be that something happened to the Li mansion?"

It is said that the married daughter splashed water. Since Zhang Jin married into the Li family, if there is nothing to do, naturally she rarely returns to the British government.

Especially when it was getting dark now, Zhang Jin came to see him in a hurry. If there was nothing wrong, Zhang Lun might not believe it.

Even Zhang Jindang told Zhang Lun what Lianqiao had seen and heard, and then looked at Zhang Lun and said, "Although we firmly believe that no one can frame Xianggong, since someone secretly contacted him and wanted to harm him, we still have to It’s good to be prepared.”

Zhang Lun's complexion changed drastically after hearing what Zhang Jin said, he stood up suddenly, and said with a gloomy expression: "Okay, okay, these people really won't be so peaceful, I'll just say how these people are suddenly in the past few days. The flags and drums in the court have died down, and I never thought that they would secretly connect with each other and have a bigger plan."

As he said that, Zhang Lun looked at Zhang Jin and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. As you said, the general is with His Majesty's family, and anyone can separate them. As for the crime of treason, that's simply Nonsense."

Zhang Jin nodded, and a cold light flashed in Zhang Lun's eyes and said: "I will send someone to keep a close eye on that Lin Shilang, and find out who is behind the scenes in order to harm the general. It is really easy to bully the general. ?”

Sensing the flash of murderous intent on Zhang Lun, Zhang Jin couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and at the same time Zhang Lun smiled at Zhang Jin: "Speaking of which, these people are really strong, I really don't know what they are What confidence do you have to think of framing the general, it seems that the general is still not vicious enough."

Hearing what Zhang Lun said, Zhang Jin couldn't help curling her lips. Isn't Li Huan murderous enough?I'm afraid no one will believe this if I say it out. Don't say anything else. In this capital alone, there are dozens of officials whose families were ransacked by Li Huan. Li Huan even got the name of a murderer in private. head.

Sighing softly, Zhang Jin couldn't help sighing secretly that the officials in the court had really healed their scars and forgot about the pain. Li Huan had only left Beijing for half a year, and these people seemed to have forgotten Li Huan's bad name in the past.

Zhang Jin looked at the sky, got up and said to Zhang Lun, "It's good that you know this matter well, it's getting late, and I should go back home."

Zhang Lun hurriedly got up to see him off.

At the same time, in the mansion of Chen Wenliang, the imperial censor of Zuodu, more than a dozen officials, big and small, gathered.

Chen Wenliang was transferred from the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate to the capital not long ago, taking over the position of Zuodu Censor, and became the top leader of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Almost half of the dozen or so officials present were newly promoted censors from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In addition, there were officials from the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of War.

Not to mention anything else, among them, Zuo Yang, who is the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was among them, talking in a low voice with several familiar colleagues.

Chen Wenliang is about fifty years old, with gray hair, a handsome figure, and a long-sleeved green shirt. At first glance, he has a good bearing, giving people the appearance of a brilliant gentleman.

Chen Wenliang's eyes swept over the officials present, with some scrutiny in his eyes, he tasted the teacup in his hand as if knowing something.

Regarding the intentions of these people, Chen Wenliang was naturally as clear as a mirror.

It's just that these people don't open their mouths. Chen Wenliang naturally sits firmly on the Diaoyutai and will not take the initiative to open the mouth.

A group of officials talked to each other, talking about interesting stories between the various government offices in the central government, and the atmosphere seemed to be quite harmonious.

But at this moment Zuo Yang suddenly smiled and said: "Everyone, it's time for the governor to return to the imperial court in a few days."

"coming!"

Chen Wenliang, who had been sitting there the whole time, thought inwardly, and his eyes naturally fell on Zuo Yang.

As soon as Zuo Yang's words fell, he heard a soldier from the Ministry of War sneer and said: "Under normal circumstances, the governor Wang should have returned to Beijing at this moment, but the other party is still staying in Yan'an mansion today. , and even the hundreds of thousands of troops gathered around them did not disperse."

Someone exclaimed: "How is this possible? The Tatars have been driven back to the grassland for nearly a month. It is said that the army should have been sent back to their respective camps. Why hasn't the governor dismissed the army yet? He... ...what is he trying to do?"

However, just listening to the exaggerated words in that person's words, one could tell that the other party's so-called surprise was completely faked. The other party obviously knew about this matter a long time ago, and it was just acting for the new Zuodu censor Chen Wenliang at the moment.

Chen Wenliang raised his eyebrows. He just came to Beijing from Nanjing not long ago. Although he said that he took up his post after coming to Beijing, he just settled down not long ago. To be honest, he really didn't know such news.

To know such a major military event, under normal circumstances, only a very small number of people in the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies know about it. Ninety percent of the people present are actually not qualified to know about such things.

The shock of that person just now was obviously pretending to be shown to Chen Wenliang, but many people were shocked from the bottom of their hearts, and they all looked at Zuo Yang in shock.

One of the officials from the Sixth Division was shocked when he heard the words, looked at Zuo Yang in horror and said, "Lord Zuo, are you serious about what you said?"

Not only that official, but many other officials' eyes all fell on Zuo Yang.

Zuo Yang sneered and said: "My lords, how can you just talk about such important military matters? What I said is true, but Wang Yangming and Li Huan are in control of the army, but they ignore the orders of the cabinet. Disband all the troops, and the squadron will return to the court to deliver the military order."

Someone heard Zuo Yang's words, and said in horror: "This...how is this possible, what exactly are Wang Yangming and Li Huan trying to do, could it be that they have a conspiracy..."

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

For a moment, more than a dozen people had different expressions, apparently shocked by the news.

The reactions of these people fell into Chen Wenliang's eyes, which made Chen Wenliang secretly dispel his guard against the crowd.

Being able to climb from the bottom to the current high position step by step, Chen Wenliang is naturally not a fool. Not long after he took office, Zuo Yang and others came to visit him. How could this not make Chen Wenliang vigilant.

Chen Wenliang had heard about the turmoil in Beijing to some extent, and naturally he didn't have a good impression of the arrogant and domineering general Li Huan.

After all, when Chen Wenliang was an official in Nanjing, he also heard about Li Huan's murderous reputation. If he didn't say anything else, the relationship between the Metropolitan Procuratorate he is now in charge of and Li Huan would be even deeper.

In the past few years, there have been several censors who died just because of Li Huan, and Chen Wenliang was well aware of the intentions of these people.

Originally, Chen Wenliang was curious about how these people would open their mouths to persuade him to target Li Huan, but he didn't expect that Zuo Yang's opening would directly reveal such an astonishing news.

At the same time, Chen Wenliang was also secretly surprised that Li Huan and Wang Yangming did not follow the cabinet's order to repatriate the army, but instead controlled hundreds of thousands of troops in Shaanxi. What is their plan? I really dare not think about it.

At this time, an inspector Yushi said: "Li Huan and Wang Yangming stood up with troops, disrespecting the imperial order, and wanting to rebel!"

Many people's complexions changed drastically when they heard the words, and only these censors dared to speak so unscrupulously.

Sure enough, following the censor Su Cha's opening, another censor Wei Guang said: "Wang Yangming and Li Huan are disobedient and disrespectful. As the inspector and censor, we should play the role of the emperor and impeach the other party. Such disrespect will never be allowed." There are people who are disobedient to the imperial decree."

Zuo Yang cast his eyes on Chen Wenliang who had been sitting there and said slowly, "Master Chen, what do you think?"

Everyone's eyes are naturally looking at Chen Wenliang. You must know that Chen Wenliang is able to become the censor of Zuodu and take charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He is naturally not an ordinary person. This is the number one scholar of the Chenghua Dynasty. For many years, Shilin leaders in the south of the Yangtze River have definitely risen to the top and received many responses.

And Chen Wenliang can be regarded as one of the iconic figures in the civil official group. When he entered Beijing this time, on the one hand, the civil official group placed his own family in the court, and on the other hand, it urgently needed veterans like Chen Wenliang to suppress and gradually rise. The powerful Xungui Group.

Not only the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but during the past half a year, the Civil Service Group has transferred more than a dozen high-ranking ministers from Nanjing and the local governors, who are now working in various government offices.

Chen Wenliang was not even among the top three officials who came to Beijing, but even so, Chen Wenliang could be said to be the core figure of the civil official group.

It's just that there are also various factional disputes within the civil official group. It is obvious that Chen Wenliang and Zuo Yang are not in the same clan. Li Huan has a faint tendency to stand on his own side above the court.

Although Chen Wenliang is one of the generals of the civil official group, no one can guarantee what Chen Wenliang's attitude towards Li Huan is, so what happened today.

Chen Wenliang knew very well that Zuo Yang and others came to visit him today to see how he behaved.

He sighed softly in his heart, although he said that he was tempted like this, but Chen Wenliang was not angry at all. It was only because there were too many duplicitous people among them in the past few years. At that time, so many people took refuge in Liu Jin, so that many old friends turned against each other. Attack each other above the court.

Under the gaze of one after another, Chen Wenliang stood up suddenly, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes and said: "Everyone, Li Huan and Wang Yangming control the army, procrastinating and ignoring the court's decree, it can be said that they have ulterior motives. It is the supervisor of the censor, and his duty is to monitor the world for the emperor and impeach lawless officials."

As he spoke, Chen Wenliang glanced at the crowd and said: "I want to prepare a memorial to submit to the emperor. You are willing to join me in the memorial. Impeaching Li Huan and Wang Yangming is not a minister?"

Chen Wenliang's eyes were burning, and he fell on the people present, almost seeing the expressions and reactions of the people in his eyes.

A smile flashed in Zuo Yang's eyes, Censor Su Cha and Wei Guang smiled at each other, and many officials among the crowd looked at Chen Wenliang with more approval.

Just looking at the reactions of these people, it is obvious that they are very satisfied with Chen Wenliang's reaction.

At this time, Zuo Yang stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Master Chen is the leader of the world's scholars. If you go to the emperor today to impeach Li Huan and Wang Yangming for plotting against him, you will surely wake up the emperor. The merit lies in the community and you can be with your lord." It is an honor for the officials and others to jointly sign the performance."
