Why did Zhu Youxiao and Zhang Haogu have a big conflict? Zhang Haogu had already begged for his remains to return to his hometown in Linqing.

Why is Zhu Youxiao afraid of the current power of the New Party? This is a suppression of the New Party for the sake of political balance, and Zhang Haogu is a victim.

Zhang Haogu planned to rebel. Zhang Haogu was responsible for the incident in Southwest China. Zhu Youxiao discovered it in time.

Suppress it and so on.

All kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, and the world is in an uproar. The only thing that is certain is that there must be a gap between the master and disciple Zhang Haogu and Zhu Youxiao.

The news became more and more outrageous as it spread. Qian Qianyi, who had just returned to the Ming Dynasty after finishing his business in Japan, was stunned when he heard it: "What? There is a conflict between the chief minister and His Majesty? Now he has been detained at home?"

"Yes, sir, that's what people say outside!" said the boy.

Qian Qianyi looked at the bustling Tianjin pier with a blank expression. How long had he been in Japan? Why did the Ming Dynasty change?

As if he had thought of something, Qian Qianyi immediately ordered: "Hurry, return to the capital quickly!"

The boy quickly prepared the frame of the bicycle, and Qian Qianyi hurriedly boarded the bicycle and set off.

It stands to reason that when the dignified cabinet minister comes back, the Tianjin government will definitely have to take over the dust, but how can Qian Qianyi have the time to care about that at the moment?

When the Tianjin Prefecture was ready to welcome the driver, they saw Qian Qianyi's carriage going straight to the capital, leaving the Tianjin Prefecture officials looking at each other in confusion.

Feng Xuan, the prefect of Tianjin Prefecture, sighed: "It seems that what happened in the capital is really big. Otherwise, Mr. Qian Ge wouldn't be so anxious."

"Everyone, please leave. There's no need to set up a table at this time. It's better to do your job and be careful.

The officials of Tianjin Prefecture naturally nodded repeatedly, who could say otherwise?

Right now, the Ming Dynasty is about to be turbulent.

Zhang Haogu didn't know much about what happened outside. After waking up from a deep sleep all day long, Zhang Haogu couldn't help but feel apologetic when he looked at Zhu Qiqi's worried expression.

"Husband, what happened? Why are there rumors that you and the emperor's brother are having a quarrel?" Zhu Qiqi asked anxiously.

Zhang Haogu sighed: "I'm sorry, madam, it was me who made her worried."

"Husband" Zhu Qiqi already had a bad feeling in her heart.

Zhang Haogu smiled bitterly: "This time, it's my husband's fault. I really don't know what to say."

After sighing for a long time, Zhang Haogu finally told Zhu Qiqi about the future.

Zhu Qiqi said with a complicated face: "My husband is right, the people are innocent, how can the emperor use the lives of the people to defend the ridiculous King of Shu? Although the clan king is important, five hundred thousand Ming people are not as good as one

The clan king?"

"But why do you want me to tell you this?"

Zhang Haogu held Zhu Qiqi's hand and said softly: "My husband is in charge of the outside world, and my wife is in charge of the house. Although my wife does not need to know about these important affairs of the court, I must let my wife know what my husband did outside and why he did it."

, between you and me, there is nothing that needs to be concealed, and what should be known to the wife should naturally be said, not to mention that this matter involves not just the husband, but the entire family."

As he said that, Zhang Haogu looked apologetic: "This time, it was my husband's fault. I didn't consider my wife or Chengze. It was my husband who went his own way."

Zhu Qiqi shook his head: "My husband is doing this for the people of the world, and for his responsibilities, I, and Ze'er."

Zhang Haogu looked at Zhu Qiqi, smiled bitterly and said, "It's your husband's fault, and you have to admit it."

"I only think about the outside world, but I forget that I, Zhang Haogu, am not alone anymore. If something really happens, it's okay if I can just be there, but if it involves you and Ze'er, then it won't be easy for me to act like a hero outside.

What’s the use?”

With a long sigh, Zhang Haogu looked a little confused: "For ideals and ideas, I fight with your majesty. There is nothing to say, but I take it for granted. The Linqing Zhang family, my wife, and

Ze'er, with such a big family, I look glamorous from the outside, but I can't ignore you."

"Now that I think about what happened that day, I find it a bit incredible that I would go to such an extent with His Majesty and completely forget about my family."

"Some people can disregard their families for their own ideals just to preserve their reputation, their loyalty and filial piety, and their legacy, but I can't just care about myself."

"Husband" Zhu Qiqi looked at the confused Zhang Haogu and felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, as if his heart was being pinched and twisted. The husband before was so high-spirited.

After coming back to his senses, Zhang Haogu looked at Zhu Qiqi and said, "Madam, please take Ze'er back to Linqing."

"Husband?!" Zhu Qiqi was horrified, had her husband and the emperor's brother actually reached this point?

Do you actually need to run to Linqing to avoid trouble?

Zhang Haogu had regained his composure, looked at Zhu Qiqi, smiled and stepped forward to rub her face: "No need to say more, let Zhang An take you and Ze'er back to Linqing to speak for your husband and the two elders.

I'm sorry, and then I'll stay in Linqing, preferably anonymously."

"If anything happens to the imperial court, let the two elders not worry about their family property and go to sea with gold and silver, whether in Nanyang or Japan, they can always live a better life."

"I haven't saved much money for my husband these years. My annual salary, money for maintenance, and various rewards from Your Majesty all come from my wife. Madam, please take them with you. After all, my husband doesn't need them."

"I understand." Zhu Qiqi looked at Zhang Haogu complicatedly. She knew that her husband was a stubborn man. If he just had a dispute with the emperor's brother, he would never say this as if he was giving his last words.

Having said so much now, something else must happen.

I can only make my husband worry here. Since I can't do anything to help my husband, I should try my best not to let him worry.

Zhu Qiqi was a smart woman. She quickly packed her bags, took her gold and silver, and left the city in a carriage under the escort of Zhang An and his wife.

Zhang Haogu was relieved to have Zhang An escorting him all the way. Not to mention that Zhang An's martial arts skills were so ordinary that seven or eight robbers couldn't get close to him. Let's just say that in places like Zhili, Shandong and other places, robbers and the like no longer exist.

What's more, Zhang Haogu also left two wheel-fire guns for Zhu Qiqi to protect himself.

After Zhu Qiqi left, Zhang Haogu looked at his home. There was no one there in the first place, but now it was even more empty.

But Zhang Haogu felt extremely at ease in this empty and quiet home at this time.

He is not the kind of person who would disregard his family for the sake of his reputation, nor would he abandon his wife and children just to fulfill his own beliefs.

I have done my best to command and take care of everything. The Zhang family in Linqing still has a lot of money. I have also left Zhu Qiqi many years of salary and rewards. Zhu Qiqi can take that much money overseas.

Give your children a prosperous life.

In this case, there is no favor for me anymore.

Sitting in the study, Zhang Haogu lit the incense himself, then grinded the ink, spread out the folds and picked up the brush. After a long silence, Zhang Haogu slowly wrote on the pen: "I once heard the saint's cloud."

Zhang Haogu spent the whole night writing this excerpt.

After writing the note and drying the ink, Zhang Haogu washed himself in the early morning, went out and drove towards the palace by himself.

Outside Wuying Hall, a young eunuch hurried over and said something in Wei Zhongxian's ear. Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian and asked, "What's wrong?"

Wei Zhongxian said: "Your Majesty,

, Master Zhang is outside with a copy of the book."

The joy on Zhu Youxiao's face disappeared, and his expression was a little complicated: "Let the chief assistant come in."

Soon, Zhang Haogu, dressed in civilian clothes, calmly entered the Wuying Hall and bowed deeply to Zhu Youxiao: "Kowtow to Your Majesty."

"I heard that the chief assistant has prepared a booklet for me?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"My humble opinion." Zhang Haogu said.

Wei Zhongxian saw that there seemed to be an invisible collision between the monarch and his ministers, and his whole heart was raised. Why is Master Zhang still so stubborn?

"Heh, I haven't seen the first assistant's masterpiece for a long time. Please bring it up." Zhu Youxiao sneered.

Zhang Haogu took out the fold and handed it to Wang Tiqian who was standing aside. Wang Tiqian, who looked depressed, handed the fold over. Zhu Youxiao spread the fold and the sneer on his face disappeared. The servants in Wuying Palace felt as if they were under endless pressure.

, there was dead silence in the hall.

After reading the excerpt for a long time, Principal Zhu You let out a long breath: "What a great literary talent. Master is indeed worthy of being the leader back then. This article was thrilling and heart-pounding for me."

With that said, Zhu Youxiao gathered the words together and said: "It is passed down that Zhang Haogu, the chief assistant of the cabinet, the bachelor of Wuyingdian, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, is dismissed, and Sun Chengzong, the governor of Liaodong, is ordered to return to the capital."
