Chapter 306 Prince Yu’s Attitude
After sending away Zhao Zhenji and Li Chunfang, Zhu Zaijing called Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng over.
After Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng saw Zhu Zaijing, they greeted him politely: "I pay my respects to the prince."
Zhu Zaijing smiled slightly and said: "Two gentlemen, please get up. "
Then Zhu Zaijing ordered Meng Chong to serve tea.
Zhu Zaijing looked at Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng and asked calmly: "How is the situation outside?"
Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng looked at each other slightly, and Gao Gong took the lead in saying : "I went outside Chongwen Gate and saw Haigang Peak. The guard there is tight and there will be absolutely no mistakes."
Zhu Zaijing nodded slightly and said: "Hai is very responsible for handling affairs. Don't worry, since he can guard that side tightly, it's a good thing."
Then Zhu Zaijing looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked, "Where is Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Juzheng listened. Looking at the conversation between Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, as well as the brief conversation with Gao Gong in front of the mansion and in the conservatory, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Zhang Juzheng said: "I went outside Wenyuan Pavilion and saw Mr. Xu Ge. Mr. Xu Ge told me that Mr. Xiao Ge had already aggressively participated in the memorials of Wang Youzhao and Hai Rui, and there was nothing special about your majesty. However, Mr. Xiaoge mobilized the Three Justice Department to investigate Wang Youzhao's crime of dereliction of duty and Hai Rui's crime of concealment."
After listening to Zhang Juzheng's statement, Zhu Zaijing said to Zhang Juzheng again. : "What does Mr. Xu Ge mean?"
When asked by Zhu Zaijing, Zhang Juzheng's eyelids couldn't help but twitch, feeling that there was a trap.
Zhang Juzheng said: "Mr. Xu Ge didn't say anything."
Zhu Zaijing was surprised. He never expected that Xu Jie was so cautious and didn't even say a single unnecessary word. .
But what Zhu Zaijing didn't know was that Xu Jie had already made up his mind to sacrifice Hai Rui.
However, after Zhang Juzheng thought deeply, Zhang Juzheng decided not to report the matter for the time being, because he felt that the problem here was definitely not as simple as imagined.
If he says something wrong and Prince Yu has a bad impression of Xu Jie, this will not be a good thing for Zhang Juzheng.
After all, he is Xu Jie's disciple, and he entered Prince Yu's Mansion on Xu Jie's recommendation.
If he always conveys Xu Jie's intentions to King Yu, wouldn't it mean that Xu Ge Lao clings to the prince and Zhu Zaijing secretly communicates with the courtiers?
These were all taboos of the imperial court, so before seeing the facts clearly, Zhang Juzheng thought it was better to play it safe.
Let’s talk about the important part first. As for Mr. Xu Ge’s suggestion, just keep it secret for now, wait for the situation to develop, and see what happens.
Zhu Zaijing said: "Since Mr. Xu Ge is so mature and prudent, I will feel at ease. Mr. Gao, please take Mr. Zhang with you to Chongwenmen later to help Hai Rui deal with this sudden incident." It's an emergency. It's not just the arrest or search warrant issued by the Sanfa Division. Even if the King of Heaven comes, no one will be allowed to step in. "
Gao Gong listened to Zhu Zaijing's words. I couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
He originally thought that Zhu Zaijing had played a trick on Yan Shifan and let it go, but he did not expect that Zhu Zaijing had to drag Yan Shifan into a trap.
Gao Gong stood up and bowed: "I obey."
Zhang Juzheng also followed suit and bowed in this way.
But in the end, Zhang Juzheng asked Zhu Zaijing again: "Your Majesty, how about Shuntian Mansion?"
Zhu Zaijing spread his hands and said: "How do I know? Shuntian Mansion is The imperial yamen are not my subordinates, so they can do whatever they want. Besides, Shuntian Mansion is also the best in the world, so it should have its own reputation and ambition, right?" Zhang Juzheng heard what Zhu Zaijing said. , he also understood.
Zhang Juzheng understood that Zhu Zaijing would not interfere with the affairs of Shuntian Mansion, nor would he say a word for Shuntian Mansion. As for how things developed in the end, and how Shuntian Mansion chose to take sides in the end, Zhu Zaijing was all concerned Won't care.
This means that once Wang Youzhao is ill and rushes to seek medical treatment and does some unreasonable things, Prince Yu's Mansion will at most just watch and not have any reaction.
Zhang Juzheng bowed again and said, "I understand!"
Zhu Zaijing looked at Zhang Juzheng's reaction and sighed at Zhang Juzheng's sensitive reaction.
Zhu Zaijing continued to say to them: "In this case, time is running out and I will not leave any food. The two gentlemen will rush to Chongwen Gate to help the sea trial pass. Difficulties. I may not care about others, but I will never give up on anyone who dares to bully anyone in Prince Yu’s Mansion!”
Zhu Zaijing's words are another attitude, and this attitude is also very touching for Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, because they are also considered to be from Prince Yu's palace.
Now Zhu Zaijing expressed his position in front of them, firstly, to emphasize the importance of Hai Rui, and secondly, to send a signal to them. As long as they are still the ministers and lecturers of Prince Yu's Mansion, as long as they are still the ministers, The two of them still regard themselves as Zhu Zaijing's husband, so that Zhu Zaijing will stand by them through thick and thin and face future events and problems together.
Such an important attitude is actually no less than a serious promise.
Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng bowed again excitedly: "I will definitely fulfill the prince's instructions and never let anyone take the case for trial without any official documents from the court."
Zhu Zaijing He nodded with satisfaction and said: "Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen."
Zhu Zaijing sent Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng away from the palace.
Seeing the two of them riding in a carriage towards Chongwenmen, Zhu Zaijing also sighed in his heart, it would be great if they could stay like this forever.
But who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
After all, it is only the end of the 30th year of Jiajing, and there is still a long, long way to go before the 6th year of Longqing.
And if you really have a good life and live longer than the original life span of Emperor Longqing, then all these worries and emotions will naturally disappear.
Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng were sitting in a carriage. Zhang Juzheng continued to look at Gao Gong and asked: "Brother Suqing, what is going on outside Chongwen Gate?"
Gao Gong said: "Things are still the same. That thing, but the problem is not that. We just need to help Hai Rui block the harassment according to the prince's wishes and not let anyone break in without the court's order."
Gao Gong. This sentence is actually equivalent to directly telling Zhang Juzheng the result.
After hearing these words, Zhang Juzheng felt relieved. He was glad that he made a timely judgment and did not convey Xu Jie's meaning to Zhu Zaijing.
At the same time, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but look forward to how this matter would end.
After all, the three law divisions have all fallen out, which can be said to be huge. If it is just a big thunder and a small rain, it does not seem to be in line with Mr. Xiao Ge's style of conduct.
So, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but look forward to it.
