"How about it?"

"Have you found anything?"

Seeing that Zhang Jingxiu was finally back, Qin Hanqian couldn't wait to ask.

Zhang Jingxiu shook his head and avoided.

This is the first time he has lie in front of Qin Hanqian.

no way.

It really has a big relationship, and his father specifically reminded him before leaving the secret room.

Qin Hanqian didn't ask much and smiled: "Since I haven't found anything, then go to bed with peace of mind."

Zhang Jingxiu hugged Qin Hanqian guiltily and asked, "Do you regret marrying me?"

Qin Hanqian raised her eyebrows, shook her head, looked speechless, and gently tapped Zhang Jingxiu's brain with her fingers, saying, "To this day, the child is about to be born, but he still asks this?"

However, Zhang Jingxiu hugged Qin Hanqian even tighter and said with emotion: "Today's Zhang family is different from the past. They were searched by the emperor and they will be punished soon. I am afraid that I will not see my father when the child is born."

"Don't think so much, go to bed." Qin Hanqian hadn't thought about this problem.

She felt that her fate in this life was already bitter enough. It was not until she met Zhang Jingxiu that she felt that she had ended her hardships. But who knew that the good days had just passed and the Zhang family collapsed instantly.

Emperor Wanli was so jealous of Zhang Juzheng, her father-in-law. The result of this judgment must be much better.

She didn't dare to think about it, and she had a headache every time she thought about it.

Since the Zhang family was raided, she has spent these days in fear, but she knows that there are children in her belly and dare not think about it to take care of herself.

But some things have to be faced.

But if you want to say regret, she really didn't. After all, Zhang Jingxiu loved him very much. The Zhang family initially opposed her being with Zhang Jingxiu, but later it was nothing. They didn't treat her coldly and had long regarded her as the wife of the Zhang family. So she was more grateful.

"I want to tell you something seriously." Zhang Jingxiu suddenly said seriously.

"Speak, I'll listen." Qin Hanqian answered obediently and gentlely.

"I may have to accept the punishment for being exiled this time."

"Exile?" Qin Hanqian was shocked.

"Yes, my five brothers and I may be exiled thousands of miles away."

"Hasn't the emperor's will be issued yet?"

"But the boss has already made a prediction."

"..." Qin Hanqian was silent for a long time before she said firmly, "If this is the case, then I will take the child well and wait patiently for you to come back."

"I asked you to remarry, you definitely don't want to."

"nonsense."

Zhang Jingxiu sighed deeply and said, "I don't know when the boss will come back. I'll feel relieved if he takes care of you."

Qin Hanqian also sighed and said with emotion: "If it were just out of selfishness, I really hope that my elder brother can be the emperor, so that you will not be punished, and there will be no trouble for everyone in the Zhang family and the Zhang family."

Zhang Jingxiu didn't say anything.

Before that, he would definitely make a statement to stop Qin Hanqian from talking nonsense. Such words are unspeakable.

However, today, he was silent. First, he didn't want this? Second, he thought that his father also thought so and took action.

But this road... Zhang Jingxiu dared not think about it.

Although he had great admiration and trust in Zhu Yiliu, in his eyes, he was simply dead end and had no way out.

So when Qin Hanqian talked about this issue, he didn't know what to say. He was afraid of letting go, so he kept silent.

"It's better to sleep. It's useless if you think too much." Qin Hanqian already felt that saying too much is not only useless, but also increases Zhang Jingxiu's troubles.

...

Just the next day, Emperor Wanli's decree was finally issued and a judgment was made in the case of Zhang Juzheng.

There was actually no surprise to Zhang Jingxiu, You Qi, Zhang Juzheng, Feng Bao and others. After all, Zhu Yiliu had made a prediction long before he went to Beijing.

The only thing that surprised them was that Emperor Wanli actually spoke out about Zhang Jingxiu.

Zhang Juzheng's younger brother Zhang Juqian was dismissed from the position of deputy commander of the Jinyiwei and sent to Yunnan to exile.

Zhang Juzheng's five sons, the eldest son Zhang Jingxiu, the second son Zhang Sixiu, the third son Zhang Maoxiu, the fourth son Zhang Jianxiu, and the fifth son Zhang Yunxiu, were all dismissed from fame and honor, and they all became a place of barbarism.

Only the youngest son Zhang Jingxiu was dismissed as a gangster by the scholar's fame, but he was not exiled to the frontier. He also gave a reason: he stayed to take care of the old lady (i.e. Zhang Juzheng's old mother Zhao).

In addition, the Zhang family's Beijing real estate and all gold, silver and antiques were confiscated. In Jingzhou City, except for the 300 acres of thin land left for the support of Zhang Juzheng's old mother, Mrs. Zhao, all the rest were assigned to Zhu Yiliu's name.

The Zhang family went up and down, all of them hung their heads, and the verdict they were waiting for finally came.

They were heartbroken.

Apart from the three elders in You Qihe's secret room, only Zhang Jingxiu, who was extremely complicated in his mood.

His first feeling was that Zhu Yili saved him.

Why are they all Zhang Juzheng's sons? He is the least punished? Isn't it because of his relationship with Zhu Yili? Will Emperor Wanli really forgive him for his pity for his old grandmother?

If you really sympathize with the Zhang family, you will not have to make a judgment after liquidating his father.

After thinking about it, he could only think of Zhu Yiliu.

Zhang Juzheng, Feng Bao, You Qi and others also thought so, believing that this was the result of Zhu Yili's secret vortex after he went to Beijing, otherwise it would be impossible to explain.

I can't think of any other possibilities.

Everyone in the Zhang family was very sad and didn't even have time to despair. But for Zhang Juzheng, he felt that this was the "best" result.

Of course, this "best" is relative. Compared with the results he originally expected, even compared with the results predicted by Zhu Yili, it is considered good.

After all, Zhang Jingxiu did not send troops to serve as a military force, and left 300 acres of thin land for the Zhang family. And all the others were placed under Zhu Yiliu's name, which means that their Zhang family could still share the "rich" with Zhu Yiliu, just like Zhu Yiliu now uses their Zhang family's.

Originally, Zhu Yiliu and the Zhang family had penetrated each other, and it was hard to distinguish between you and me.

So of course this is the "best" result.

But this "credit" can only be attributed to Zhu Yiliu.

Obviously, if it weren't for Zhu Yiliu, the Zhang family would have been even more miserable this time.

Zhang Juzheng, including Feng Bao, You Qi, and even Pan Jixun, all believed in this.

In this way, the liquidation of Zhang Juzheng was officially completed. These thrilling few months can be said to have caused peace in the country.

Not only is the officialdom like a scattered person, but the hearts of the people in the world are also suffering.

Those post houses, restaurants, teahouses, docks, bookstores, temples and temples in large cities and counties, including those in the border counties... Wherever people are there, they will use Zhang Juzheng's so-called honor, disgrace, merits, demerits, life and death as an indispensable topic of conversation after dinner.

As Zhu Yiliu, Hu Yixian, who was specially assigned by him, appeared slowly at Jiangjinkou Wharf in Jiangling City.
