Chongzhen smiled more and looked at Wang Zhichen's memorial, and slowly said, "The Wang Zhichen's memorial also has the intention of taking the school exam, so I just asked Zhou Zhengyun to rectify his military equipment. But I have carefully read Zhou Zhengyun's words and deeds since he entered the officialdom. Not to mention his generous and frank statements in the court, but just talking about his achievements in his mission to Liaodong and impeachment of the eunuch party, he is still the censor. This shows that the court will not use people, and I am mean and have no kindness."

Zhou Qing Li's face was as usual, raising his hands and listening quietly.

Li Zhong stood not far away and quietly glanced at Zhou Qingli.

Chongzhen pretended to be thoughtful for a while and said, "The magistrate of Yongping Prefecture has been vacant for half a year. I plan to let Zhou Zhengyun go directly to serve as the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture. What do you think?"

Although Zhou Zheng's contribution and the emperor's heart were not a problem, Zhou Zheng's age and "education" were hindered.

Zhou Qingli kept raising his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the dog has never had any experience in government affairs. If you preside over the mansion, it would be not enough. I ask Your Majesty to take it back."

Seeing that Zhou Qingli had been refusing, Chongzhen became more and more confident in his thoughts of showing kindness, and said, "The people of Yongping Prefecture are exhausted, and all industries are withering, and they are also behind Ji Liao. We need to focus on comforting and even do our best to support Ji Liao Towns... In this way, I have appointed Zhou Zhengyun as the imperial envoy and appointed Yongping Prefecture."

Chongzhen's consideration was that this would avoid Zhou Zheng's qualifications and other issues. It was a form of "temporary delegation". He did not give Zhou Zheng's official position, but gave real power. On the one hand, he rewarded Zhou Zhengsan for his contribution to Cui Chengxiu, and on the other hand, he also won over Zhou Qingli.

When Zhou Qingli heard this, his expression changed drastically and said, "I dare not accept the order, please ask Your Majesty to take back the life. The dog son is young and frivolous, and he will not be able to do anything. Such a great responsibility is difficult for him..."

Chongzhen interrupted him with a smile and said, "I believe in the eyes of the king's minister, and I can trust Zhou Aiqing's tutor, and I believe that I will not misjudgment the person. This is the case. By the way, your Ministry of Revenue will think of another way and allocate 50,000 or less than 100,000 taels of silver to him, and order him to purify Yongping Prefecture as soon as possible and restore people's livelihood..."

Zhou Qingli knelt on the ground and said for a while: "I obey the order."

The smile on Chongzhen's face then completely relaxed. He walked over and helped Zhou Qingli up and comforted him: "There is no need to worry about Zhou Aiqing. Zhou Zhengyun has made great contributions in the court. I am not rewarding and punishing me. I also hope that he can do something. Besides, with me here, people will not harm him."

Zhou Qingli looked nervous and raised her hand and said, "Yes, I thank Your Majesty for your son."

Chongzhen looked at Zhou Qingli's expression and was very satisfied with his grace. He said, "I have read the memorial submitted by the Ministry of Revenue. I am very satisfied with it. I will invite Bi Aiqing to the palace one day and discuss it together."

Hearing this, Zhou Qingli looked solemn, and the nervousness and fatigue just now disappeared. He pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the national government is a lot of sluggish, and we still need to concentrate on rectifying it. Bi Shangshu and his ministers have been sorting it out recently, but they feel that it is still the tip of the iceberg. It takes more time to worry for a while, which is harmful and useless..."

Chongzhen seems to have not touched much on the national government now, or his mind is not completely on it. Looking at Zhou Qingli's expression, he nodded secretly and said with a smile: "Well, I understand, wait for me to summon him."

Zhou Qingli raised her hand and said, "Yes."

Li Zhong caught a glimpse of everything not far away and exclaimed in his heart. The father and son of the Zhou family are really not simple. One is ulterior motive and the other is a traitor, Ruozhong.

He had to be careful not to count the money for him if Zhou Zhengyun sold it one day!

After a while, Zhou Qingli left the Ganqing Palace and breathed quietly.

No one knew, his back was wet.

Zhou Qingli knew this Chongzhen Emperor more and more, and he became more and more careless, so as not to leave a bad impression on him.

His move to "retreat to advance" was also risky, but fortunately, the result was even better than he expected.

Zhou Zheng went to Yongping Prefecture. Although he had no specific official position, he was able to fully handle Yongping Prefecture without any restraint.

‘That’s all I can do for my father…’ Zhou Qingli walked slowly, whispering in her heart.

Not long after Zhou Qingli left the palace, the imperial edict had not been issued, but the news had already spread.

Zhou was about to leave, and I don’t know how many people breathed a sigh of relief, as if the big rock pressed on their hearts was gone.

Zhou Zheng is a threat to many people. First, he is outspoken and can easily touch their pain points; second, Zhou Zheng is now surrounded by a reputation. If he impeaches anyone, the government and the public will be shocked and gather together.

Many people are smiling happily.

Zhou Zheng also heard the news, but the imperial edict was not issued, so he was unable to enter the palace to receive the edict and thank him.

Zhou Zheng was in Tian Mansion at this moment and was sitting opposite Tian Zhenshu and drinking.

Tian Zhenshu naturally received news and looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "If it were someone else, he would be the chief censor, and at least he would be the chief censor. He was the prime minister or the governor. You are so special, you probably act as the Yongping Prefecture as the supervisor censor."

‘Statement’ actually means ‘temporary’ and ‘temporary’.

Zhou Zheng knew that he had too little qualifications and could not be appointed as the Chief Censor, nor could he be the Prime Minister or the Governor.

His affairs were already settled, and he didn't want to talk much, but asked, "I heard that you are writing a letter to try to defend Huang Liji?"

Tian Zhenshu's big eyes looked hesitant and said, "Yuanfu is still very meritorious. If he is also questioned, it is a national uproar and all officials will be afraid, which will be unfavorable to the country and the court."

Zhou Zheng knew in his heart that it was not just that, but that the people in Qingliu had too deep connections with Huang Liji or the eunuchs and could not continue to "diggle deeply", otherwise there would be endless disasters.

But they obviously underestimated the new emperor's hatred of Wei Zhongxian. The eunuch party was Chongzhen's most firm determination and no one could stop him.

"Be careful." Zhou Zheng said two words.

Tian Zhenshu knew Zhou Zheng and had always been strict with him. Anything he could take out from him was extremely precious!

Tian Zhenshu didn't ask much, nodded, and said, "You are going to Yongping Mansion, do you need my help?"

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "I'm afraid you, the Censor, will be help from now on."

Not long after Tian Zhenshu was promoted to the Assistant Censor, he laughed and said, "As long as the person you mess with is not too powerful, I will suppress you in the Censorate."

Zhou Zheng raised his wine glass and said, "One word is certain."

"A word is determined!" Tian Zhenshu responded with a smile.

No matter how turbulent the government and the country are, they are both "promoted" and "full of confidence".

Tian Zhenshu was promoted to the Assistant Censor and was already considered the most backbone official of the Ming Dynasty. He could enter the ranks of high-ranking officials at any time and become a major figure in the Ming Dynasty court.

Zhou Zheng took up a new position and had already planned things, so he would definitely do a big deal.
