Chapter 118

Zhang Hao saw Jiajing angry and looked at Lu Fang. Lu Fang shook his head. Zhang Hao didn't know what it meant, so he simply ignored it. Instead, he went to get a brush and continued to practice calligraphy.

Anyway, I am idle. Now I want to go out, but I won’t go out. It’s very cold outside.

Jiajing walked in the alchemy room for almost a quarter of an hour, and finally sat next to the stove.

When Zhang Hao saw that he did not sit with him, but sat on the table before him, so as not to stop Jiajing from slapping the table and scaring him.

Jiajing has been reading memorials all day long and has been angry several times. Zhang Hao is already used to it now.

At night, Zhang Hao thought nothing was wrong, but Jiajing's current censor, Xuan Zuodu, Tu Qiao,

Tu Qiao also arrived at the alchemy room in fear. Some time ago, he was beaten ten times, but now it is just a little bit better. Unexpectedly, he was summoned by Jiajing again.

After Tu Qiao arrived at the Danfang, he immediately knelt in front of Jiajing.

Jiajing didn't say anything, just threw it to him seven or eight books. Tu Qiao immediately picked it up and knelt on the ground and watched. Jiajing was sitting on it.

After a while, Tu Qiao felt very hot and his forehead began to sweat, but his hands were trembling. He knew everything mentioned in the memorial, but there was something I dare not check it out at the beginning.

"You are the censor of the Zuodu and the supervisor. Look at how many unjust cases are there, huh? Among them, Zhang Jiaren, the chief of Shuntian Prefecture, was personally issued by me to ask for the death of Qiuhou. It has been two months since you were beheaded. Why don't you have a report?" Jiajing stared at Tu Qiao, who was kneeling there, and questioned.

"The emperor forgives his crimes, the emperor forgives his crimes, I am dereliction of duty!" Tu Qiao immediately kowtowed and said.

"Is it so simple to neglect your duties? How can you be so conscience? I gave you such great power, and you will deal with me like this? Hum?" Jiajing continued to stare at Tu Qiao and said.

"Emperor, my minister, my minister!" Tu Qiao was also suffering.

Of course, Jiajing could see it, then stood up, walked down, and said, "I will give you a month to rehabilitate it, and to arrest people. Can you do it?"

"Ah?" Tu Qiao looked at Jiajing in shock.

"I'm asking you!" Jiajing stared at Tu Qiao in dissatisfaction.

"Your Majesty, it's OK, but please prepare a coffin for me!" Tu Qiao kowtowed and said, when Jiajing heard it, he kept staring at Tu Qiao.

"Zhang Hao!" Jiajing suddenly shouted.

"I'm here!" Zhang Hao ran over immediately.

"He said, let me prepare a coffin for him!" Jiajing pointed at Tu Qiao and said to Zhang Hao.

"Ah?" Zhang Hao didn't understand at all. You just talk about court affairs. Why do you call yourself here?

"Tell him how many coffins I can buy with my money!" Jiajing continued to look at Zhang Hao.

"Oh, Lord Tu, let alone wooden coffins, you just want to get a sterling silver one, it's enough!" Zhang Hao said immediately.

"Emperor, since that's the case, I will investigate, but I also know that I can't survive. Please agree to me and let my family go, no matter what," Tu Qiao kowtowed again and said,

When Jiajing heard this, he frowned.

"Are you afraid that I will kill you unjustly? I may even kill you all?" Jiajing looked at Tu Qiao and asked. Tu Qiao didn't say anything, but still knelt there!

"Zhang Hao, remember, if, within this month, if someone comes here to sue Tu Qiao, you, hammer him to death!" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao.

"Yes, the emperor!" Zhang Hao immediately bowed and said.

"Thank you, my elders, I'm going to do these things. Your elders, I'm ashamed of you, not of the emperor, but of the ministers who died unjustly!" Tu Qiao looked up at Jiajing and said,

When Jiajing heard this, he knew what the words meant. He was ashamed of himself, that is, he was also wrong with these things.

"Yeah!" Jiajing nodded and waved his hand.

Tu Qiao stood up and bowed her hands. Before going out, she looked at Zhang Hao, smiled at Zhang Hao, turned around and went out.

Jiajing returned to the platform and sat down. Thinking about the matter, Zhang Hao also returned to his position.

It was almost midnight, and Lu Fang saw Jiajing still sitting there thinking about things, so she spoke, "Your Majesty, it's time to soak your feet and rest!"

"Yeah! Oh!" When Jiajing heard this, he got off the platform. Chen Hong also brought foot washing water and started soaking his feet. Then Jiajing heard a gentle snoring from behind.

"Hey, this bastard, won't go to the barracks tonight?" Jiajing felt very strange. He didn't need to guard this place now.

"Your Majesty, he said that he would sleep warmly here, so he would not go to the barracks anymore." Lu Fang nodded and said.

"This kid will enjoy it, but this stove is really good, you can't feel cold at all!" Jiajing said with a laugh, and Lu Fang nodded repeatedly.

The next day, after Zhang Hao woke up, he returned home, but when he arrived, he found that Zhang Li was already running and warming up.

"Okay, brother, have you started to exercise on your own initiative?" Zhang Hao caught up with Zhang Li and said with a smile.

"That's right, but you can't do anything randomly. Why did you smash the walls of Xu Jie's house yesterday? What a joke?" Zhang Li said to Zhang Hao while running.

"He won't let me in. Besides, it's not a big deal!" Zhang Hao said disdainfully.

"You are really ignorant, but be careful, my mother is very angry and said she wants to teach you a lesson. What about you? After you finish the exercise, run away. My father hasn't dared to come back these days, so my mother is even more angry. I have to go to the military camp to find my father every morning and afternoon, but I really can't find him!" Zhang Li said bitterly to Zhang Hao.

"Hehe!" Zhang Hao laughed when he heard this.

After the two brothers finished running, they were about to go back to have breakfast. At this time, one of them came to Zhang Hao and bowed and said, "Second Young Master, a man named Tu Qiao outside asked for a visit. He was the Zuodu Censor. He said he couldn't come in. He wanted to invite Second Young Master, you go out for breakfast!"

"Hmm?" Zhang Hao felt strange when he heard this. He hadn't dealt with him before, so why did he come to him?

"Okay, I'll go change my clothes and let him wait!" Although Zhang Hao was puzzled, since he had found his doorstep, it would be impossible not to see him. Besides, he is the Zuodu Censor and a second-rank official!

After Zhang Hao changed his clothes, he arrived at the door of the mansion and saw Tu Qiao standing aside.

"I have met the Censor of the Tudu!" Zhang Hao went over and bowed and said.

"I have met Anbo Lu, please forgive me. I have no choice but to do it. I can only come here to invite you to breakfast at this time!" Tu Qiao bowed to Zhang Hao and said.

"Please!" Zhang Hao nodded and made a gesture of asking for help.

Soon, Tu Qiao took Zhang Hao to a manor very close to Yuxi Palace.

After entering the manor, Zhang Hao found that basically all the people who had breakfast here were officials, while Tu Qiao took Zhang Hao to the private room on the second floor. Tu Qiao ordered some breakfast and poured tea for Zhang Hao.

"No, what's the matter with me? The breakfast here is not cheap, right?" Zhang Hao looked at Tu Qiao in confusion and asked.

"It's not cheap. It costs about 100 cents for a breakfast per person. I'm asking you today and I'm going to spend 1 tael of silver!" Tu Qiao said to Zhang Hao with a smile.

Zhang Hao looked at Tu Qiao even more confused.

"I think I am a clean official, but not a good official. The emperor said yesterday that he was a minister and was a bare-headed person. Yes, yes!" Tu Qiao still said with a smile.

"However, I have never written a letter, nor have I never impeached officials, but I have all been beaten back. Some of the officials who were impeached by me have now become ministers, and some are now governors. What can I do?" Tu Qiao sat there and said to himself.

Zhang Hao still looked at Tu Qiao, what did he mean by telling him?

"I know that the emperor trusts you, so I want to ask you for something. I can't afford to give you a gift. I don't have money. Please treat you to dinner. Well, we two, one old and one young, have nothing in common, so just have breakfast?

Please help you, when the emperor is angry and wants to kill my whole family, you can help them save them! OK?" Tu Qiao said as he picked up the teacup and said to Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao looked at Tu Qiao with confusion.

"Ha, the gift is a little lighter. I have brought all the money from my family. I exchanged the silver notes. There were 500 taels of silver on them. I would like to give it to you too!" Tu Qiao said, then took out a small cloth bag, then took out a few silver notes and placed them on the table.

"I said to Lord Tu, are you insulting me?" Zhang Hao asked as he looked at Tu Qiao.

"No, no, I can't help it. Lu Fang, I can't invite others, Xu Jie, I'm not the same as him, Lu Ben and Yan Song, Lu Bing, hum, it's just a bird of a feather. I don't want to ask him, your father Zhang Rong, I want to go, but if I can't see you, you're the only one!" Tu Qiao looked at Zhang Hao and said with a wry smile.

"Take it back, are you still worried about the emperor?" Zhang Hao sighed, and he knew what Tu Qiao meant. He was preparing to show his ambitions by dying and was preparing to fight with some people.

"Ha, I don't talk about the king's faults. The king's faults are a dereliction of duty as a minister. Lu Anbo, I hope you can promise me that I can say with a conscience that I have never been corrupt or harmed anyone!" Tu Qiao stared at Zhang Hao and said.

"Who is the opponent?" Zhang Hao touched his nose and asked.

"You ask the emperor, but the emperor doesn't know. I know where I go. Everyone may be an opponent and anyone may be a friend. Of course, the nobles will not be an opponent, but the nobles will not participate in the court. So, I beg you, okay?" Tu Qiao said seriously at Zhang Hao.

"I haven't eaten breakfast yet, so let me agree?" Zhang Hao said with a smile.

"Well, haha, okay, okay, look, you are not stupid, you are just a sage!" Tu Qiao laughed when he heard this.

"I'm just called Zhang Manzi. What's my name for Buman?" Zhang Hao also smiled.
