People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 241 Our biggest backer is our Nizi
The first year of Hongwu, the fourth day!
Yang Xian, the right minister of Zhongshu Province, wrote a letter stating that the host of Yongshou Palace disguised himself as a layman and left Yongshou Palace privately, but was caught by the soldiers and horses on the spot!

The other party sent Gao Yong to the Ministry of Punishment, after interrogation.

Gao Yong made a confession, and Zhang Normal ordered Gao Yong to buy off the presidency of Tianjie Temple.

Yang Xian wrote a letter on this matter, asking the emperor to take down Zhang Normal.

Lao Zhu looked at the memorial in his hand and almost laughed angrily.

He was meaningful, looked at Yang Xian who was kneeling on the ground, and handed the memorial to Zhu Biao.

"Your Prime Minister, Minister of the Ministry of War, can this matter be confirmed?"

Zhu Biao put down the memorial and asked Yang Xian.

"Your Majesty, Prince...

This charge was made by Gao Yong himself!

According to Gao Yong's confession, it was Zhang Normal who forced him. If he didn't go to Master Huitan, Master Zhang would drive him out of Zhengyi!
Gao Yong said that he has been a Huoju Taoist all his life, and he will not do anything else!
If he doesn't become a Taoist priest, he has no other way of making a living!

So he could only be forced to find Master Huitan, but was kicked out by the Master! "

Minister of the Ministry of Justice bowed his head to answer the question about jewelry.

Yang Xian added:
"This incident actually started because of the incident on the first day of junior high school. Zhang Normal was upset that the emperor gave the loess to Tianjie Temple and wanted to keep these things!
He knew that he couldn't beat Tianjie Temple, so he thought of evil ways!

Your Majesty, Zhang Normal's behavior is really too low!
The minister affirms His Majesty, deal with Zhang normal, and take away his real person position...

Otherwise, let him trample on the law of the country like this,

I'm afraid it's not the blessing of the imperial court! "

Zhu Yuanzhang was expressionless and was not confused by Yang Xian's words. He asked, "Have you asked Huitan?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, we went to Tianjie Temple to ask Master Huitan, and he said that she didn't know anything else, but Gao Yong did come to him...

It's just that he didn't promise the other party any conditions, he just asked people to kick him out!
The mage remembered his old love and kept silent! "

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice answered Zhu Yuanzhang's question, and the emperor fell silent.

"Okay, let's go down!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and told Yang Xian and others to go down.

"His Majesty!"

Yang Xian couldn't bear it, and reminded the emperor again.

"I have my own opinion, and it's not Gao Yong who said it alone, so it can be counted!
It's a big Chinese New Year, and I haven't even passed the [-]th!
You just find trouble for me..."

Yang Xian saw that he would not move the emperor, so he could only leave the memorial and leave.

But he has already figured out whether to mobilize his party members to impeach Zhang normally.

"This game has improved a lot!"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang and others left, they sneered, put the memorabilia and crimes on the desk, and took a deep breath.

"Some loess can cause so many things, I can't imagine..."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed at himself, but Zhu Biao replied:
"This is not a matter of a touch of loess, but the glory that many people dream of!

My father said that nothing in this world is anything more than fame and fame!

What you think you can't understand is a dream for others...

It's just that I want to know what role Master Huitan plays in this game? "

Zhu's father and son chatted casually, but they didn't take what Yang Xian said to heart.

The officials didn't know that the emperor and his son had a deeper understanding of Zhang Normal than anyone else.

If it wasn't for Zhang Yi, who helped Lao Zhu and Lao Zhang to communicate in another capacity, Zhu Yuanzhang would have been furious at this time, and it was normal for people to arrest Zhang.

But somewhere they didn't know, the emperor had a conversation with Lao Zhang.

They also knew that even if Zhang normal went to anyone, it was impossible to go to Gao Yong as a lobbyist!
This was a strangulation against Longhushan by Yang Xian, Huitan and Xuanjiao, so Zhu Biao asked Master Huitan's role in this matter.

"Hui Tan is a smart man, he will fight for the interests of the forces behind him, but he will not take the initiative to let himself fall into the disputes of the court!

But if you say he doesn't know, I don't believe it..."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and came to a conclusion.

He never believed in human nature, nor did he believe in the so-called indifference to fame and fortune.

Who said that if you become a monk, you will not fight?

Everyone loses their aura, and they are actually ordinary people.

Taoists pay attention to wealth, law and land.

Monks also want to save sentient beings!

The so-called Purdue, enlightenment...

In fact, to put it bluntly, we still have to fight for the right to speak first.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't object to his subordinates going to fight. Huitan took the initiative to stand up to fight last time, and he didn't feel bad in his heart.

But if he uses other means to plot against Zhang Normal in this matter, Lao Zhu will consider replacing him.

"In this way, Lord Yang has become the target of others to use again!"

Zhu Biao smiled, his casual sentence was the pain in Lao Zhu's heart.

Damn, I was blind when I chose this guy to be on stage.

"This guy has improved a bit this time, let him make a fuss!"

"Father is not afraid that the general situation has come, and it is difficult for you to deal with it?"

The emperor is not omnipotent, and the struggle between the power of the monarch and the power of the prime minister often makes the emperor unable to control himself.

Zhu Biao's worry was because he was afraid that something would happen to Yang Xian and the others, making it impossible to turn back the situation.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled lightly:
"Look again..."

This matter came to an abrupt end with the father and son.

As for the concept of pure heart, it has just been discovered that the wind and rain are blowing up again.

"Gao Yong..."

Lao Zhang got the news from the report from the Xu Mansion.

Although the Xu family kept a low profile, they still had their own source of information in the court.

The Zhang family was sitting together, and the person in front of them was a girl from the Xu family.

Xie didn't come!
She found an excuse and sent the Xu family siblings to the Taoist temple.

Outside, the incense is in full swing, the smoke is lingering, and the enthusiasm of the people is ignited by the King of Medicine...

But the Zhang family in the backyard felt cold.

Zhang Normal's hands trembled slightly. He was not afraid, but felt that he was wronged, and he was really aggrieved.

How could he let the Xuanjiao people do that?
What is the relationship between Xuanjiao and Longhushan's family, don't these people know?
"Mother said, the Zhang family is kind to my Xu family, that's why she came to remind the Taoist priest today to let you prepare early!

If this matter breaks out, I am afraid that the court will be full of wind and rain in a few days!
She is a woman, but it is not easy to intervene in this matter!
So, I can only..."

Xu's girl looked at Zhang Yi with an apologetic expression.

Zhang Yi laughed, shook his head and said:
"Small thing!"

"Don't be careless, there are not one or two people in the court who have opinions on your family!"

After the Xu family girl finished speaking, she took her brother back.

Although she wanted to stay a little longer, she also knew it was not the time.

After the others left, Mrs. Zhang took the initiative to say:
"Master, what should we do? Those who killed thousands of knives, how could they spit out blood? Master, you should enter the palace right now to beg the emperor, and prove your innocence..."

Zhang Normal was upset and reprimanded:

"What do you know as a woman? Zhang Yi, go in and talk..."

Zhang normal stood up and took the initiative to walk in the direction of the study.

Zhang Yi jumped up and followed Lao Zhang's back.

After reaching the study room, the door was closed.

Zhang normal let out a sigh of relief, the whole person collapsed on the chair.

Zhang Yi is very relaxed:
"Actually, I think our old Zhang family has a good family motto..."

Zhang Normal was flustered at first, but he was also attracted by his words.

"What ancestral training?"

"Even if the celestial masters of all dynasties have nestled in Longhu Mountain, I think this ancestral teaching is good!
If you put it in the court hall, Dad, you are not enough for those people to play with..."

Zhang normal immediately blushed, when did he still make fun of himself?

Zhang Yi said:
"What a big deal...

Let me ask you, did you ask Gao Yong to do this? "

"Of course not, it's too late for Pindao and Xuanjiao to cut off seats, so how could it be possible for him to admonish Huitan?
This is clearly because Gao Yong is angry with me and wants to frame me..."

Zhang Yi said:
"That's it. Since you didn't do it, what are you afraid of?"

Zhang normal:
"You don't understand the dangers in court, if those scholar-bureaucrats really frame a person, they can say that black is white!
Now that someone has made a move, what do you want me to do?
It's also what you said, telling me not to make friends with the dignitaries in Beijing, now I just want to find someone to help, and I have nowhere to find..."

Lao Zhang is not a political novice. Although he is far away in Longhu Mountain, he can see the imperial court's strife.

How many innocent people died unjustly in prison because they turned black and white?
This can be said to be countless in the history books.

He did know he was innocent, but so what?
As long as it works well, there are dangers up and down Mount Longhu.

Zhang Yi replied:

"Dad, don't you have a backer?"

"Who……"

"Your Majesty!"

Zhang Yi's answer made Lao Zhang furious:
"Why does the emperor become my backer?"

As soon as he spoke, he froze.

'

Lao Zhang looked Zhang Yi up and down, feeling relieved inexplicably.

Zhang normal clearly understands that his backer is definitely not Zhu Yuanzhang, but it can be Zhang Yi!
The emperor loves this kid, and he is his greatest amulet.

"Zhang Yi, you have to help me!"

Lao Zhang blurted out, Zhang Yi rolled his eyes.

To some extent, the celestial masters in Longhu Mountain are still far behind those monks and Taoists stationed in Beijing, at least in terms of political struggle.

He said:

"The one in the palace is different from other emperors, I let you be a loner, it's actually for your own good!

You may not believe it, if you really run to find someone for help at this time, this is a taboo!
We are Taoists, and Taoists must behave like Taoists!

The emperor may not care about forming a party for personal gain, but he certainly won't talk about favoritism!
As for me saying that the emperor is your father's backer, I'm not just talking about it. Think about it for yourself, what are you carrying on your back? "

After these words, Zhang Normal's panic gradually subsided.

He bowed his head and thought:

"The Northland party..."

"That's right!"

Zhang Yi smiled and said:

"You are a hero now, to a large extent you are bound to the fate of the emperor, if you want to kill the donkey, at least you have to wait until the matter is completed!
So unless the other party really has conclusive evidence, the emperor will definitely protect you!
Moreover, Xuanjiao was suggested by the emperor to you to deal with it. You are afraid that the emperor really believes what those people say, it will not...

When it comes to political struggle, you are not on the same level as His Majesty!
His Majesty can't even see through this matter, the key is whether he wants to take care of it or not?

If he doesn't want to take care of it, even if he sees it, as long as those courtiers form a general trend, it will be a very low-cost matter for him to follow suit and deal with you!
But if he wants to take care of it, even if you commit a crime, he can save you!

In this situation, His Majesty cannot ignore you!
So you just wait with peace of mind and see what kind of trouble those people can make?

When the time comes, you will confront them immediately..."

Zhang Normal was thoughtful, and after Zhang Yi's analysis, he finally calmed down.

"Speaking of which, it's still my son who hurt you..."

Zhang Yi smiled and said:

"I offended Yang Xian that he took the initiative to promote this matter today!

That Mr. Yang, the more frustrated he is, the more courageous he becomes. He must destroy our Dragon and Tiger Mountain before he is reconciled?

Father, you are implicated by me! "

Zhang Normal took a deep look at Zhang Yi:
"Don't put gold on your face, why do you, a little Taoist, target you?
To put it bluntly, it is because many people look down on us Longhushan!

No matter how incompetent I am, I will never let a child bear the responsibility...

Alright, with your enlightenment on this matter, Pindao has a bottom line in his heart!

No matter what these people do, I, Longhushan, suffer from it..."

Zhang Normal knew in his heart that his confidence did not come from Zhang Yi's analysis, but the relationship between the emperor and Zhang Yi.

As long as the emperor needs to use Zhang Yi for another day, the sky in Longhu Mountain will be clear!

No matter how many winds and rains, that person will protect Zhang Yi!

But there was also a trace of worry in his eyes...

If one day His Majesty feels that Zhang Yi is useless, will he kill the donkey?
……

Zhang Normal also put this matter aside for the time being, and just silently cooperated with Zhang Yi to promote Medicine King Taishang.

The pure heart concept is as if this incident never happened, leading a rare and stable life.

It's just that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind keeps on.

The memorials about the impeachment of Lao Zhang have already flown to the emperor's desk like snowflakes.

Yushitai, Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple...

They are all asking the emperor to handle the case, and the officials have not been so united for a long time.

Regardless of the north and south, regardless of Huaixi and eastern Zhejiang, some people wrote letters asking the emperor to thoroughly investigate Zhang Normal.

Such a turbulent public opinion was suppressed by Zhu Yuanzhang, and he didn't think of the waves at all.

But everyone is not giving up.

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, early morning.

The Minister of Dali Temple came out:

"Your Majesty, all Huoju Taoist priests from Yongshou Palace and their families have come to Dali Temple to avenge their grievances!

They are all reporting Longhushan Tianshi Zhang Normal for suppressing dissidents and forcing them to do things that violate their conscience!

They have nowhere to ask, and they just want the Holy One to decide for them! "

Yang Xian also came out and said:

"Your Majesty, the public opinion is raging, and the hearts of the people are in turmoil!
Regarding the matter of Longhushan Celestial Master Zhang Normal, I have to investigate..."

After he finished speaking, officials came out one after another to second the proposal!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the half of the court officials kneeling down in the hall with a playful expression.

These people are despicable...

Old Zhu turned to Li Shanchang:
"Mr. Li, what do you say?"

Li Shanchang thought for a while, then knelt down too:
"Your Majesty, regardless of whether Daoist Zhang is innocent or not, this matter must be investigated, and if it is investigated, he will be truly innocent!
However, there is one thing I feel doubtful about! "

Li Shanchang changed the subject, Zhu Yuanzhang asked:

"what's up?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked, and Li Shanchang said:
"Renren Zhang went north instead of His Majesty to pay homage to the heroes. It was a matter of ordinary sympathy, but now he has a stigmatized name.

Wei Chen suggested to temporarily disqualify him from presiding over this matter, and hand over the loess to Tianjie Temple! "

When Zhu Biao heard this, his expression changed drastically.
