The First Gongsheng of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 146
Jianchangbo Mansion.

Zhang Yanling was drunk after dinner, ordered a group of people, and prepared to take them out.

"Second Master, everyone is ready, there are more than 60 people, even if someone has something to do, don't be afraid!"

A young boy stood in front of Zhang Yanling, with an iron plate tied to his chest, like a breastplate, and a stick in his hand.

Zhang Yanling scolded: "Who dares to cause trouble if you don't open your eyes? I beat whoever is not pleasing to the eye!"

This kind of night is normal for Zhang Yanling, and then he said hello: "Go and say hello to the people in the Jiaofang Division, let the girl with the sunflower head be washed and wiped flowers for me to wait, I will come on A hut... just go. Langley Grand."

"Okay!"

The hairy boy just ran out.

Zhang Yanling was still squatting in the hut, but he heard the commotion in the yard.

"Second Master..."

"Which bastard disturbed me to go to the toilet? Are you looking for death? I can't be quiet even if I leave my shit?"

"It's from Dongchang. Mr. Xiao, the owner of Dongchang, came in person and said he wanted to ask you for questioning."

"What?"

Zhang Yanling was puzzled and came out cursing.

I saw the people brought by Xiao Jing, the governor of Dongchang, confronting Zhang's guard in the courtyard with a knife. This group of people seemed to ignore Dongchang because they were from the relative's house.

This is related to Zhang Yanling's daily "teaching". No matter what prince or general the opponent is, the two brothers of the Zhang family in the Ming Dynasty are not afraid anyway.

So this group of people who will build Changbo's mansion will be there if they don't.

"Xiao Jing, you are really capable. If you bring someone to Laozi's house, are you afraid that Laozi will tell sister to go there?"

Zhang Yanling said to Xiao Jing in a threatening tone.

Xiao Jing had a bitter face, and said with a smile: "Uncle Guo, please forgive me, isn't that right? Our family just came out of Kunning Palace. It was ordered by His Majesty and the Queen to clean up and go to Fusi in Beizhen. There is something wrong." ...to ask clearly."

"Beizhen Fusi? Fuck, I won't go!"

Zhang Yanling felt that he was not stupid, and Beizhen Fusi was not a good place, so why did he go?
"Uncle Guo, you may not know that Beizhen Fusi has specially arranged a residence for you. Besides the necessary things, who you want to take with you... It's up to you, that is... In the future, where will you be?" You can’t even go, you have to stay in Beizhen Fusi, this is His Majesty’s decree, if you don’t obey, then Dongchang..."

"Why, if I don't go, how dare you mess around?"

Xiao Jing said helplessly: "That can only be offended."

"Depend on!"

"Looking for death? Believe it or not, I stripped you off?"

Before Zhang Yanling could say anything, his group of subordinates began to clamor.

Xiao Jing frowned upon hearing this.

There are people from three mountains and five mountains, and some are even dressed in strange clothes. Why is there such a group of monsters in Uncle Jianchang's mansion?Talking loudly and drinking six times, even Dongchang is ignored, is it a tiger or a fool?
It doesn't look like a serious nursing home!

"Uncle Guo, look, this is an imperial decree. In addition, if you have anything else to do, you can ask someone to send a message to the empress. Please help me."

"Unless I have met my sister and brother-in-law and they said it personally, who knows if you have false edicts?"

"Then Uncle Guo will be offended. Dongchang has brought more than 200 Tiqi this time, so please do me a favor! Come!"

……

……

Jianchangbo Mansion is very lively.

It lasted until the second watch, when Xiao Jing finally finished what he had told him. Zhang Yanling finally arrived at Beizhen Fusi in his own carriage. In the rear carriage were three concubines of Zhang Yanling and two cooks. , a servant and three servant girls...

After arriving at Beizhen Fusi, a separate courtyard is given. The gate cannot be guarded by Jin Yiwei, but people from Jianchangbo Mansion must guard it.

As for Zhang Yanling's special requirements, such as the need for opera singers, storytellers, and even the Jiaofang Secretary to come in and out, Dongchang and Jinyiwei can't interfere.

"Eunuch Xiao, what is Your Majesty going to do?"

Mou Bin, commander of Jin Yiwei, came over to ask Xiao Jing for instructions after he had arranged everything.

Xiao Jing looked helpless: "If you want to do something, do it well, don't ask. No one can say anything before it happens!"

Of course, he couldn't tell Zhang Zhou's prophecy that there might be an earthquake in Jianchangwei and other places. The emperor had to do something in advance, so as not to be accused of covering up his relatives and being punished by heaven. Anyway, the emperor is now planning for a rainy day.

Since it didn't happen, the fewer people who know about it, the better.

……

……

Before the court meeting the next day.

All the civil servants had just arrived at the Meridian Gate, and the other end of Luanjia hadn't appeared yet.

Bai Ang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, told Liu Jian and others about Zhang Yanling's transfer to Beizhen Fusi, and then all the civil servants present knew the "explosive news".

"Why do you want to be imprisoned by the relatives of the Zhang family?"

Xie Qian looked puzzled.

When I mentioned to the emperor about Peng Quan's participation in the impeachment of Zhang Yanling, the emperor used threats and lures, and even reached an agreement with the cabinet that Jiang Rong reported that the three members of the cabinet blocked the road, so that the cabinet should not mention it again.

Turning his face away, the emperor arrested Zhang Yanling?
The contrast between the attitude of the emperor before and after is a bit big...

Bai Ang analyzed: "Could it be that Uncle Jianchang did something so outrageous that even His Majesty couldn't bear it?"

Based on what Peng Quan reported before, it is unlikely that Zhang Yanling will be imprisoned. There is only one explanation. Zhang Yanling committed crimes again.

Liu Jian shook his head and said, "Recently there have been many memorials to the impeachment of the Zhang brothers, but they are nothing new. They are all commonplace things. If you use this to imprison, it really doesn't make sense!"

……

……

Meridian Gate meeting.

The emperor didn't mention Zhang Yanling at all, because the emperor felt that he was "unreasonable". After all, he wanted to fool God, saying that he sent Zhang Yanling to prison, but in fact he found a new place for Zhang Yanling to live in.

In addition to certain restrictions on personal freedom, even contact with the outside world is not restricted, and things like eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling are still not stagnant.

What the hell is going to jail?
This is much more comfortable than ordinary people outside.

The ministers were moved by the emperor's "righteousness and extinction of relatives", and they felt embarrassed to mention it. In fact, they still wanted to praise the emperor's great style of not favoritism. However, it happened suddenly, and many people haven't summed up the words of flattering. Son, no one will pay for it.

After the court meeting was over, Zhu Youtang returned to Qianqing Palace, and learned from Xiao Jing that from last night to this morning, his brother-in-law had made a fuss in Beizhen Fusi.

"...Uncle Jianchang brought more than 40 people in. The concubines and maids didn't have enough room to live in, so we had to temporarily move a few yards, and some even built sheds in the yard..."

Xiao Jing was also a little speechless.

However, the emperor said that the sacrifice of Zhang Yanling's interests this time should be based on the empress's consent.

What Empress Zhang meant was that people can be sent to Beizhen Fusi, but they must not let the younger brother suffer even a little bit of grievance, and then...

It's like this bear.

"Ahem!" Zhu Youtang felt bad when he heard this.

Xiao Jing is still adding fuel to the flames: "...Yesterday, two troupes were arranged, one is the opera troupe, and the other is from the Jiaofang Division. Six or seven women from music background... are all in Beizhen Fusi Overnight inside..."

"Okay!" Zhu Youtang really couldn't listen anymore, and directly interrupted Xiao Jing's words, "Being disturbed by this, Beizhen Fusi is so smoky, and being known by others, what majesty do I have?"

Xiao Jing lowered his head.

Sure enough, this kind of thing is easy to be angered.

I did the things. Although I did everything according to His Majesty's orders, but it didn't meet the Emperor's wishes. Is it my fault?

But the problem is that it is impossible to satisfy both Zhang Yanling and His Majesty and Empress.

Now it is not easy to send that living ancestor to Beizhen Fusi to let the world think that Your Majesty is just and strict, so what else do you want?

"Remove all the people he brought with him!" Zhu Youtang said, "Just don't let the queen know!"

Xiao Jing asked for instructions: "Shall we all withdraw?"

Zhu Youtang thought about it for a while, then shook his head: "Keep a few, there is no shortage of him for food and use, and send the rest back where they came from!"

There was another problem for Xiao Jing.

Whether it is people or things, it can be classified into two aspects of "food" and "use", so how much should be sent back? There should be a standard, right?But the emperor did not set a standard, and the discretion fell to the workers. Does this make people live?

Just as he was talking, Dai Yi came in from the outside, holding in his hand the memorial that had just arrived from the Tongzheng Envoy.

"Say!"

Zhu Youtang was in a fit of anger, and his attitude towards Dai Yi was not so good.

Dai Yi said: "Your Majesty, two things... the battle report just entered the city in the early morning, said that a large number of Tatar cavalry appeared around the Piantou Pass..."

"Oh."

Zhu Youtang nodded first, then stood up from the chair with a cry.

"Are you here?" Zhu Youtang was very excited.

"coming!"

Dai Yi's heart was also surging.

This means that the Tatar battle predicted by Zhang Zhou in February may be about to start soon, and the next one may be the one that is most likely to be achieved by Ming on the northwest battlefield after entering the reign of Hongzhi. battle.

"It's at Biantouguan, isn't it?" Zhu Youtang confirmed again.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Dai Yi replied with certainty.

"Okay, okay, I placed Wang Weining on the side of the head. It seems that the victory of this battle is hopeful. It is the good steel that is used on the blade, and the idea is right!" Zhu Youtang was so happy that he patted the table several times.

It seems that this is the best opportunity for Zhu Youtang to show off his martial arts. If this battle is successful, it will have a great impact on Zhu Youtang's reputation.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing..." Taking advantage of Zhu Youtang's joy, Dai Yi mentioned it again.

"Say!"

Zhu Youtang was in high spirits, even if he told him some bad news, he would not take it seriously, "Is it about the exam? This morning, the exam should start, right?"

"No...Your Majesty, it's actually an earthquake around Shanxi and Ningxia, it's not a big deal..."

"The ground moved?"

Zhu Youtang was stunned for a moment.

It seems that this shocks his heart even more than the encounter with the enemy before turning his head.

If the military situation in Northwest China and the earthquake in Ningxia, Shaanxi are as expected by Zhang Zhou, then the next earthquake related to Zhang Yanling's warning from heaven...will it be soon?
Dai Yi reminded: "Your Majesty?"

Zhu Youtang pointed to Xiao Jing and said: "Go, take Yan Ling's people in Beizhen Fusi, except himself, and send them all back to Jianchang Bo's mansion! If there is trouble, we will deal with it! Whoever wants to see him He, even if it is the empress who sends the message, he will not be allowed without my consent... If Yanling still wants to make trouble, put him in the dungeon and let him reflect on it for a few days."

"Yes."

Xiao Jingxin said, as expected, the plan still couldn't keep up with the rapid changes.

Fortunately, I didn't ask too much just now.

Now there is no need to ask.

But this thing has fallen into the current situation, is it because he offended God, or because he offended Zhang Bingkuan?This is too mysterious, right?
