Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "I heard that Zhao Hao had a meeting in Dashilar yesterday and took the eldest princess there." Zhu Yushi quickly explained.

    "I've heard about it too. It seems to be called the Xishan Coal Industry Board of Directors. I heard that their stocks are very expensive." Several censors also became interested and talked about it:

    "I heard that one share costs hundreds of taels. We have been saving for twenty years, but we still can't afford one share."

    The disparity between rich and poor is so great that it doesn¡¯t even hurt.

    But Xu Fan can feel it!

    ¡°Every word these censors say to each other, every word about stocks is like a knife stuck in his heart.

    When he arrived in front of Chengtian Gate, Xu Fan felt that his blood was about to dry up.

    Until he saw Zhao Shouzheng, who was wearing a sixth-grade uniform and looked harmless, smiling all the way from Zuo'anmen, surrounded by a large group of low-level officials.

    Xu Fan immediately got angry, glaring at the man who destroyed him with red eyes.

    "Zhao! Guard! Be honest!" Xu Fan gritted his teeth and cried blood every word.

    "Hey, you are" Zhao Shouzheng was chatting and laughing with his classmates.  When I heard the voice, I saw it was a middle-aged man with an angry face.

    ¡°Well, the foundation is not bad.  Even the eye circles are a bit dark and the bridge of the nose is also collapsed, which makes people dare not compliment him.

    "You actually don't recognize me?!" Xu Fan exploded on the spot and roared wildly: "I'm thinking of you all the time!"

    If it weren¡¯t for the help of someone nearby, he could have pounced on Zhao Shouzheng and killed him.

    "Oh, I recognize you like this." Zhao Shouzheng looked stunned, and you couldn't tell whether he was deliberately irritating people.

    ??~~

    Fortunately, the palace door was opened in time, so there was no more martial arts.

    "Hmph, when there is a court discussion, you will continue to act stupid!" What Mr. Xiaoge hates most in his life is this kind of wiry bandit who appears to be honest and honest on the surface, but is full of evil after being cut open!

    "Whatever you say." Zhao Shouzheng was used to being misunderstood.

    Mr. Zhao looks the same on the outside, but some people always think he is faking it.

    "Brother, ignore him." The fellow students glared at Mr. Xiaoge angrily.

    They are young people who have just entered the officialdom and have no foundation. They are full of passion and have nowhere to put it. They hate this kind of situation where they rely on their power to bully their subordinates.

    What¡¯s more, the one being bullied was their beloved big brother Shuang Erye.

    "Kick Big Brother out of the capital, who will give us timely rain in the future?"

    Thinking of this, those poor Beijing officials who have not received a penny of salary and rely entirely on Mr. Zhao for financial support want to tear Mr. Xiao Ge into pieces!

    "Brother, just enter the palace with your head held high!"

    Seeing the high-ranking officials and dignitaries attending the court meeting coming to Chengtianmen one after another, they all shouted excitedly:

    "We are right here and we are not going anywhere! If the court discussion is unfair, we will fight them!"

    "Yes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes! If one is beaten, a group of them will be beaten too!"

    Several high-ranking officials of the second and third grades happened to pass in front of them. They heard these low-ranking officials of the eighth grade shouting and killing, and they deliberately scolded them, but they were afraid of getting angry.

    The court has not been peaceful recently, and there are a lot of stupid people, so it¡¯s better not to show off your authority.

    "Just pretend you didn't hear anything and take two steps quickly to stay away from these lunatics."

    ??????????? But they were secretly stunned. They didn¡¯t expect Mr. Zhao¡¯s father to be so popular?

    ??~~

    The court meeting was held in the East Pavilion as usual.

    Of course, it is impossible for all the big guys from the whole dynasty to gather together just for this trivial matter.

    Today we are going to vote on several important military and national affairs. The so-called "Higashi Gongsheng Gate Brawl Incident" is just a side discussion at the end.

    Zhao Shouzheng and Xu Fan first waited in the side hall.

    Fortunately, the servants and guards were watching, so the two of them stopped fighting.

    But Xu Fan could not calm down his anger and chose to kill him with his eyes.

    It was the first time in Zhao Shouzheng's life that a man stared at him for such a long time, which made him very uncomfortable. He simply closed his eyes and stayed silent.

    In just a few breaths, he sat on the stool and fell asleep.

    ¡®How dare you ignore me!  ¡¯ Xu Fan was immediately furious. Aren¡¯t you old? I can¡¯t beat you with a big-eared scraper?

    But he forgot that when he was beaten, he was still Xiao Ge Lao.

    But since his opponents were all asleep, there was no need for Xu Fan to waste his energy, so he folded his arms and waited for him to be called, or for the guy to wake up.

    Zhao ShouzhengPang Shangpeng came to wake them up.

    Seeing that this guy actually fell asleep again, Pang Zhongcheng couldn't help but be stunned, thinking how big this man's heart was.

    ??It¡¯s okay to fall asleep in the cell of the Metropolitan Procuratorate last time. Now I have to accept the trial of the ministers. How can I fall asleep sitting here?

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    Pang Zhongcheng silently raised his evaluation of this guy to an unprecedented height.

    "Ahem." Although they didn't want to offend this traitor, the ministers were still waiting for them to enter the palace.

    Pang Shangpeng had no choice but to bite the bullet and cough several times to wake Zhao Shouzheng up.

    "Ah, did I fall asleep?" Zhao Shouzheng saw a fourth-grade official standing in front of him. He quickly wiped the corners of his mouth, stood up apologetically and said, "I was so scared last night that I didn't sleep a wink all night."

    ¡®It would be strange to believe you.  ¡¯

    ¡®Do you look scared?  ¡¯

    Xu Fan and Pang Shangpeng thought in unison.

    ??~~

    Today¡¯s court meeting was initiated by the Ministry of War to discuss whether to build a border wall to defend against Tatar invasion. Therefore, it was presided over by Huo Ji, the Minister of War.

    When the two of them entered the palace and bowed politely, Huo Ji pointed at Zhao Shouzheng and said in Mandarin with a strong Shanxi flavor: "Come and take a look, this is the number one scholar who beats people. Let me see  Now, he should take the martial arts exam again, it would be appropriate if he got the top prize in both civil and military examinations."

    All the civil and military officials laughed in varying degrees.

    Zhao Shouzheng was laughed to the point where his heart went crazy. He thought that this kind of situation was really terrifying, a hundred times more terrifying than being interrogated at the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

    He couldn¡¯t help but miss the waterside pavilion in the Princess¡¯s Mansion. After removing the entire row of windows, one could see the rippling blue waves on the lake and the mandarin ducks playing in the water, which made people feel extremely peaceful.

    Hearing the harsh laughter of the senior officials and looking at the bewildered smile on Zhao Shouzheng's face, Xu Fan felt offended.

    When I was still a young man, no one dared to laugh like this.

    He glanced at Dong Chuance, the Minister of Dali Temple. Dong Tingwei nodded slightly and said angrily to everyone:

    "On the tenth day of this month, Zhao Shouzheng, a Hanlin editor, attacked Xu Fan, the minister of Taichang Temple, causing Xu Leqing to suffer serious physical and mental injuries. In addition, the crime occurred at Dong Gongsheng Gate, where the government offices of various ministries are located, and the impact was very bad. After the incident, the  The officer even fled without a trace, and despite being summoned several times by the Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he never showed up. Such arrogant and arrogant people who have no regard for the king's laws are truly unheard of and unseen!"

    Zhao Shouzheng was dumbfounded by these words.  Why don't you just hit someone if you don't want to?  Why do you feel like the next step is to kill me?

    Seeing Zhao Shouzheng¡¯s expression change, Xu Fan smiled happily, thinking that he couldn¡¯t pretend anymore, right?  This is just the beginning!

    Seeing Dong Chuance taking the lead, Huo Butang frowned slightly, but he still held it back.  Dali Temple is responsible for trying criminals committed by officials of the imperial court, and the other party is not considered to be the main guest.

    "Now Xu Leqing has resigned from office with anger and has become a commoner. The old Yuanfu is very sad about this and almost faints. Your Majesty can't bear to see the old man take office and goes back with hatred. Therefore, he ordered the ministers to discuss his crime in public and punish him severely to express his gratitude to the old Yuanfu!"

    After saying that, Dong Tingwei pointed at Zhao Shouzheng angrily and yelled: "You are a guilty officer, do you know your crime?!"

    Captain Ting, Dali Temple Qing also.
