Chapter 41: Long Yan's Fury

After hearing this, Emperor Tianqi looked at Zhang Jingyi, then looked at Wei Zhongxian, and then said, "What's going to do?"

Wei Zhongxian smiled and said, "It's about Chen Huang, a hundred households of Jinyiwei. Chen Huang bullied and exploited the orphans of Jinyiwei at that time, but fortunately, his Majesty was wise and martial, and he finally confiscated Chen Huang's house. There was only one thing, but the censor Han Lin found out. Han Lin reported that Chen Huang's land in Qingpingfang was transferred to Zhang Jingyi's name for some reason, and now it is owned by the Zhang family."

Emperor Apocalypse frowned even deeper: “Is that true?”

Wei Zhongxian's eyes secretly glanced at Zhang Jingyi, and then said: "The memorial also said that although Chen Huang was eliminated, the Zhang family who could replace him was also becoming more and more powerful, enslaving the orphans of the Jinyiwei and using this to make money..."

Emperor Apocalypse's face became stern: "Take me and see."

Wei Zhongxian quickly took out the Han Lin memorial and sent it carefully to Emperor Tianqi.

Emperor Tianqi then opened the memorial. Obviously, what Wei Zhongxian mentioned in this memorial was just the tip of the iceberg!

Those censors were all very good at writing. If they really wanted to make Zhang Jingyi, they would have to list a few serious crimes.

Zhang Jing stood aside, but saw Wei Zhong looking at him meaningfully.

So, Zhang Jingyi suddenly understood.

This must be the reason why Wei Zhongxian was doing it.

In fact, Zhang Jing knew early in the morning that after he saved the emperor, he would slowly gain the trust of the emperor and would be afraid of Wei Zhongxian.

What kind of person is Wei Zhongxian!

How can you allow others to sleep soundly under the bed?

However, Wei Zhongxian's eyes made Zhang Jingyi a little confused. Obviously... there was no murderous aura in this look.

What is the only explanation?

I am afraid that Wei Zhongxian just hopes that the emperor can alienate him, and he has no intention of killing now.

Or maybe... I just wanted him to beg for mercy from Wei Zhongxian in private!

In fact, Zhang Jingyi is not unaware that Wei Zhongxian had already spoken in the palace, hoping that Zhang Jingyi would join his disciples and be his grandson.

Zhang Jing has not acted, which is obviously the reason why Wei Zhongxian is determined to hit him.

Damn, just because I don’t be your grandson, do you arrange for the censor to come and punish me?

But it has to be said that Wei Zhongxian is very powerful. His power is not only in the palace, but outside the palace, Wei Zhongxian is in control of every move of the Zhang family.

In just a few days, Wei Zhongxian was able to make a fuss around that piece of land.

But at this time, Zhang Jingyi's only choice was to look at Emperor Aoki. He knew very well that what really determines his destiny was Emperor Aoki's attitude.

Emperor Tianqi read the impeachment memorial several times in a row, and the more he read it, the more angry he looked. Then, he slapped the table and said sternly: "Bold, you are so bold!"

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Jingyi's heart... became cold.

Wei Zhongxian seemed to have expected this, so he quickly bowed down and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Zhang Jingyi is indeed confused in some places, but he has made contributions to saving the Lord. In his opinion, his Majesty still needs to be seen in the past friendship..."

He spoke, "excuse" Zhang Jing.

The so-called slap you Zhang Jingyi was done by me, Lao Wei, and I gave you a sweet date. In this way, I am afraid that you, Zhang Jingyi, will you not be obediently and become a grandson for us?

Wei Zhongxian is well versed in human nature. To a certain extent, he still has some appreciation for Zhang Jingyi. He is still young and can be trained and will be useful in the future.

Zhang Jingyi also hurriedly asked to salute, but at this time, he didn't know whether to defend himself directly or apologize first. If he defended himself, it was a one-sided statement after all, and the emperor would definitely ask for a thorough investigation. Those who investigated the matter... Often, there would be Wei Zhongxian, or Wei Zhongxian's flying eagle and lackey, and in the end they would only give the emperor a decisive impression.

But if you apologize, isn’t this the impeachment of the Censor himself?

Just as Zhang Jingyi was hesitating, Emperor Tianqi looked at Wei Zhongxian strangely and said, "Who said...I am saying that Zhang Jingyi is very bold?"

"Ah..." Wei Zhongxian was a little confused and looked at Emperor Aoqi in surprise.

Emperor Tianqi said furiously: "I am talking about this censor Han Lin. If anyone knows today, Zhang Qing is my confidant. He submitted a memorial to count Zhang Qing five serious crimes. What do you want to do?"

"Ah..." Wei Zhongxian's face was pulled down.

In fact... he is not ignorant of Emperor Aoki's personality.

But the only thing he miscalculated was one thing...

He knew that Emperor Tianqi would not help his relatives.

But he was wrong. In the mind of Emperor Tianqi, how much weight was Zhang Jingyi.

Emperor Tianqi looked cold and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back: "Not to mention, this is just a catch-up. I may not believe him. Even if this is true, so what! Zhang Jing is repeatedly bad, that is my Zhang Jingyi!"

Wei Zhongxian: “…”

This... is so similar to Wei Zhongxian at the time.

Didn’t Wei Zhongxian be impeached by countless censors and ministers back then?

But so what?

But at this time, Wei Zhongxian showed a little embarrassment... because the protagonist was himself at the beginning, and the protagonist now was Zhang Jingyi.

Zhang Jing felt a little excited. Looking at the Emperor Tianqi who was still angry, he hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty, be humble..."

Emperor Tianqi waved his hand: "You don't need to say anything. This impeachment memorial will be kept for the first time. In the future, there is no need to mention this matter."

He then said, "I am exhausted today and have no interest. Let's go back to the back garden to rest."

As he said that, he walked out of the Qinzheng Hall quickly.

Wei Zhongxian hurriedly went to arrange people to prepare for a carriage.

Emperor Tianqi's face was gloomy, and Zhang Jing followed Emperor Tianqi and waited for the carriage to come.

Both the monarch and minister were silent for a while. Emperor Tianqi's face calmed down a little. He turned to look at Zhang Jingyi and suddenly sighed: "You don't have to keep your affairs in Qingpingfang. Don't worry, I will never be punished for this. Just..."

He paused. Perhaps deep in his heart, he was still a little disappointed with this matter: "Those orphan fathers and brothers died for the court and my country. Please restrain themselves and not bully them. If you really need money in urgent need, according to what I heard, Yang Wen, the head of the Ministry of Revenue... is the big landlord in the Songjiang area, and there are also..."

Zhang Jing was still very moved, but at this time she was dumbfounded and thought to herself, Oh, Your Majesty, I am not that kind of person...ah...

But at this time, Wei Zhongxian was already panting and leading the people carrying the carriage.

Emperor Tianqi's words came to an abrupt end, and he got on the carriage, accompanied by Wei Zhongxian, and headed towards the harem.

…………

This impeachment memorial did not have any effect on Emperor Apocalypse.

At least he was in a bad mood.

When he returned to the harem, Emperor Tianqi went to the East Palace of Cining Palace.

This Cining Palace is the residence of the previous generation of imperial concubines. When Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne, if the concubines had sons, most of them would choose to go to their sons to live their lives. Of course, some people who had no sons or died young would live here.

In the Cining Palace, the most powerful person now is Concubine Li!

This Concubine Li is the adoptive mother of Emperor Tianqi, and she colludes with Emperor Tianqi's wet nurse Keshi and Wei Zhongxian. Moreover, she is stingy, so Emperor Tianqi often hides when he sees her.

However, another concubine, who was actually more experienced than Concubine Li, gave birth to Emperor Tianqi's brother Zhu Youji in her early years, but Zhu Youji died at the age of eight. Because she was gentle and treated others well, she was not as aggressive as Concubine Li, so Emperor Tianqi would come here occasionally when she had time.

Emperor Tianqi asked the Princess about his safety.

The Princess nodded and first asked Emperor Tianqi how his health was.

Emperor Tianqi forced a smile and said, "Mother, I am in a very good health."

He looks very confident.

The Princess didn't think so: "Your Majesty, although the dragon body is good, you need to know that the good fortune and misfortune of people is unpredictable, so you should take care of it carefully. The emperor is in his prime now... It's strange that a few days ago, I had a dream and dreamed that Your Majesty gave birth to a young dragon."

"Ah..." Emperor Tianqi did not expect that the Princess began to worry about giving birth to her baby again.

Just thinking about giving birth to a baby, Emperor Tianqi also looked melancholy. He sat aside with dejected expression, lowering his head and silently.
