With Li Hengbing's impeachment memorial, Zhou Yanru's group, who was originally energetic and attacking everywhere, suddenly shrank back.

Zhou Yanru stopped acting, so the capital was quiet.

Many people in the capital, which is almost used to fighting in the court, feel extremely uncomfortable and unaccustomed to it. They don’t know who happened and look around in shock.

There is never a shortage of third-party forces or intermediate forces in the officialdom. They are not friends or party, and they are also the easiest to be attacked.

They were very uneasy and were inquiring about the news on both sides, fearing that the two giants would start a war, which would affect Chiyu.

Zhou Zheng glanced at the invitation sent by Zhou Yanru and was busy with his own affairs.

He has written several notes, but is still writing them.

The military system is a big problem. Zhou Zheng sorted out his experiences and wrote them down one by one. He had to think about it again afterwards.

I don’t know how long it took, Yao Tongshun quietly stepped in and whispered: “Sir, the wife and the second son have returned home.”

Zhou Zheng paused, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Prepare the car and go home."

Yao Tongshun responded quickly and turned around and went out.

Zhou Zheng cleaned up and walked around the place before leaving the palace and returning home.

The Zhou Mansion is much more lively than before, with a lot of laughter and joy inside.

Zhou Zheng walked in with a smile. In the yard, a little guy was chasing something under the protection of a group of maids.

When everyone saw Zhou Zheng coming back, they saluted urgently.

When the little guy saw Zhou Zheng, his face was stunned and turned around and was about to run away.

Zhou Zheng smiled and quickly stepped forward, picked him up, and said, "Ke'er, do you miss your father?"

This is his second son, Zhou Qingli named him Deke.

"Wow"

Who knew that the little guy cried out with a wow sound, and his little hand pushed Zhou Zheng's face hard, struggling desperately.

Shangguan Qing, not far away, looked up and saw the little guy crying. He walked over and reached out to take it.

The little guy stopped crying, turned his head timidly and looked at Zhou Zheng, and hurriedly buried his head on Shangguan Qing's shoulder.

Zhou Zheng twitched his lips and said, "It's only been a few days now, you little guy doesn't know your father."

Shangguan Qing patted the little guy lightly and looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "Why did you go home so early?"

Zhou Zhengzheng sighed that he was so dedicated to taking care of him when he was a child. The little guy refused to recognize his father in a blink of an eye. He listened to Shangguan Qing's words and looked at the little guy, saying, "I'll come back if I have nothing to do, come and give me a hug."

The little guy hugged Shangguan Qing tightly, but he didn't let go, as if he wanted to climb behind her.

Shangguan Qing pursed his lips and then whispered: "Is it okay?"

Zhou Zheng's smile restrained a little, forcibly snatched the little guy from her arms, and said, "It will be fine after tomorrow. Let's go and have a meal."

The little guy cried loudly, struggling hard on Zhou Zheng, and shouting at the empress in his mouth.

Zhou Zheng didn't care and hugged the little guy and entered the house.

Until evening, the little guy seemed to remember Zhou Zheng's coming, crawling around Zhou Zheng's body, and his little face was happy to be a flower.

Shangguan Qing cleaned up in the room. Seeing that he was still holding snacks to tease the child, he said, "It's too late, don't let him eat it. Look at how fat Shen'er is now."

Zhou Zheng’s eldest son, Xiao Deshen, is still in Tianjin Wei, and is in school with Xiao Deshen and others, and has not returned to Beijing.

Zhou Zheng hadn't seen his eldest son for a while. After thinking about it, he turned to look at Shangguan Qing and said, "Dad, don't you want to come back?"

Shangguan Qing nodded and said, "Dad said stingy, Shen'er's studies are tight, and the capital is not suitable for them, so I won't come back for the time being."

Zhou Zheng knew that this was an excuse and nodded slightly.

After having sex with the little guy for most of the night, he finally got to sleep. Zhou Zheng and his wife lay on the bed, saying that there were any or not. No omissions are given here

The next day, Zhou Zheng did not rush to go to the West Entrance Corridor to accompany his wife and children at home, but many people came to him.

This time the person who came to the door was recommended by Zhang Heyi, Gao Hongtu, the former Minister of Works and the Censor of the Left Censor.

In the fifth year of Tianqi, this person was deposed for the frame-up of the eunuch party. He was rehabilitated in the third year of Chongzhen and served as the left censor. Later, he was renamed the Minister of Works. Later, because he wrote a letter to oppose the dictatorship of the internal supervision, he was dismissed by Chongzhen.

Gao Hongtu, who was less than fifty years old, had a medium figure, had a somewhat resolute and cold expression. He followed Zhang Heyi to the side of the Zhou family. He saw Zhou Zheng sitting on a chair and was smiling at him. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Secretary of the Lord Zheng Xi."

Zhou Zheng's official position was a cabinet minister and his title was Zheng Xibo. Except for Zhou Yanru who deliberately belittled him, everyone else would call him Zheng Xibo.

Zhou Zheng looked at it and smiled and said, "Sit down, there are not many people who can enter our mansion."

Gao Hongtu's face suddenly became tight, and he raised his hand nervously, and sat down cautiously on Zhou Zheng's right hand.

Zhou Zheng looked at him and waited for the servants to serve tea, saying, "Qian Zhu never recommended anyone to me. You are the first one, so I have to meet him."

Qian Zhu, Zhang Heyi's name.

Zhang Heyi and Youyou sat on Zhou Zheng's left hand with a reserved smile on his face.

Gao Hongtu looked sideways and said, "My Lord, the officials are not here to seek official positions. The northwest chaos almost caused trouble to the country. The ministers of the Ming Dynasty were all worried, so the officials came to offer advice."

Zhou Zheng laughed in his heart, what's the difference? He said calmly: "Tell me."

Now the imperial court receives countless memorials every day, all about strengthening the country and reviving the Ming Dynasty.

Gao Hongtu obviously had a long time ago and blurted out: "Sir, the chaos in the northwest lies in the natural disasters. Natural disasters cannot be blocked by human forces, but they can be. The subordinate officials have sixteen suggestions: First, reform the administration of the northwest and use people cautiously. Second, implement the Baojia method and practice the cool method. Third, display the army and divide the various places so that they cannot connect with each other. Fourth, vigorously provide disaster relief to give people a way to live. Fifth, severely eliminate bandit chaos, and never be sympathetic. Sixth, move people, wars and natural disasters in various places, and the number of people has dropped sharply, which can move young and strong people to cut off the root of chaos. Seventh."

Zhou Zheng listened, his eyes narrowed slightly. Gao Hongtu really had some thoughts.

Zhang Heyi had no hints, just a few words.

After Gao Hong finished speaking in a slew manner, he said seriously: "Sir, the national treasury is empty, the world is in chaos, and there are serious rules in the troubled times. As for personal gains and losses, we can put them aside for the time being."

If you use cool methods, it will naturally cause a rebound in the government and the opposition, and it will most likely be difficult to end well.

Zhou Zheng picked up the teacup and was about to drink it, but suddenly said, "Why don't you go to find Yuan Fu? You should know that I am just a short-selling master."

Gao Hongtu stood up, raised his hand, and said in a stern manner: "Zhou Yanru, the lower officials recognize him very clearly. One is not capable, but he only knows how to form cliques and fight for power and profit. Secondly, he embezzled and cultivated his confidants. Over the years, the lower officials have never seen him do anything."

This is a very sober person.

Zhou Zheng took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "You come to me today. Whether you have joined my disciples or not, Yuan Fu will not let you go. Have you thought it through?"
