Chapter 6 Caught in jail?
Chapter 6
Lu Ben didn't want to approve these memorials, but Yan Song said he couldn't suppress them. Lu Ben was not stupid. Knowing that there must be something about Yan Song in it, Lu Ben sighed in his heart and had to do it.
"Submit it to the Silijian, take it all over and let the Silijian make a decision!" Lu Song said to the officials in the cabinet.
The officials collected the memorials and prepared to send them to the Silijian. Lu Ben was helpless. He was originally a good man, but he felt that Yan Song and the others were a bit too much to do this and stared at a fool.
Soon, the memorial was sent to the Silijian, and the eunuch in charge of the Silijian was Lu Fang, and the eunuchs on the pen were Chen Hong and Huang Jin.
"This...is a bit too much? Isn't it that impeached the second son of the Duke of England? Isn't it Zhang Manzi?" Huang Jin finished reading the memorials and took it to Lu Fang.
When Lu Fang heard this, she took it and looked at it.
"The second son of the British Duke injured the main general of the defense. He should have been punished, right? If the defense in the capital is infringed, Zhang Manzi will not be able to bear it. The unlucky person will be Zhang Rong.
I see, Zhang Manzi is the best to deal with this matter, and he can still protect Zhang Rong. Otherwise, if the emperor has no steps, he will have to deal with Zhang Rong." Chen Hong also saw a similar memorial, thought for a while and said.
"Don't press it!" Lu Fang closed the memorial and said.
"Old ancestor, this... won't be hinted?" Chen Hong was a little surprised when he heard Lu Fang say this.
If the impeachment memorial is not posted, it will be troublesome if the emperor finds out. The emperor likes to read impeachment memorials the most.
"The emperor has been praying for blessings in the Danfang these days. You know that the situation in the capital is so angry that he is too angry. If he does such a thing, the emperor may be furious and we will be scolded!" Lu Fang found an excuse to Tang Sai.
What did they think when impeaching Zhang Hao? Avenge Qiu Luan? Avenge Ding Rukui's son? I don't know whether they can live after this war!
The emperor would not deal with Zhang Hao at all. If he had to deal with it, he would deal with it yesterday. On the contrary, Lu Fang knew that Jiajing actually liked Zhang Hao very much, especially after learning that Zhang Hao had saved his father alone, he had the idea of taking Zhang Hao to his side to serve as a guard.
Now that these impeachment memorials are sent, it will only make Jiajing embarrassed. If Zhang Hao is not dealt with, he is worried that something will happen to Ding Rukui. If Zhang Hao is dealt with, Jiajing will not want to do anything at all. It would be better to stop him and see the emperor later and report it.
"This...is not right. What if those officials continue to submit memorials? The lawsuit will be fought in front of the emperor at that time." Chen Hong said a little unhappy. If he held this, he was afraid of taking responsibility.
"It's a day to delay it. Let the emperor be purified for two days first." Lu Fang still disagreed with the approval, because once the approval is approved, it will be sent to Jiajing. How should this memorial be approved?
"Yes, listen to my ancestors!" Chen Hong could only agree when he heard Lu Fang insisting so much, but he already had an idea in his mind. This matter still needs to be taken into consideration by the emperor.
Zhang Hao, who was in the military camp, had already prepared more than a dozen grenades at this moment, and the other grenades were still being made.
"Dad.Dad, Dad!" Zhang Hao climbed up to the north city wall and saw Zhang Rong looking at the hill in the distance.
"Well, Hao'er, are you awake?" Zhang Rong turned his head and looked at Zhang Hao with a smile. When he got up, he found that Zhang Hao was still sleeping soundly, so he didn't call him.
"Well, dad, let's go, let's take you to see good things!" Zhang Hao said, and pulled Zhang Rong to run down the city, feeling a little assured that he could deal with the Tatar soldiers.
"Why is this kid so anxious? I'll see later. Dad wants to see what's going on. The Tatars may have arranged troops in the opposite mountain!" Zhang Rong stopped with a smile, leaving Zhang Hao unable to move.
"Ah?" Zhang Hao turned his head and looked at the hill opposite, and could not see anything.
"Wait for a while!" Zhang Rong said, continuing to stand there, staring at the situation on the opposite hill.
"What's wrong, Duke, usually there must be many birds on the opposite hill, but you see, you haven't seen birds flying until now. I'm worried that last night, the Tatar soldiers moved to the opposite hill! Hidden here!" A general pointed to the hill in the distance and said to Zhang Rong.
"Why should I hide on the opposite hill? Is there any news in the other three directions?" Zhang Rong frowned and asked at the general.
"Yes, the Tatar soldiers have increased a lot in the other three directions." The general nodded and said.
It was too simple for them to know the news from the other three directions. Zhang Rong used to control the guards of the capital, but now those defending soldiers are all his subordinates.
"That's right. The Tatars are designing and want to wait for us to fight out. They will come out from the north and intercept our retreat!" Zhang Rong nodded and said when he heard this.
Zhang Hao stood there and understood that there were Tatar soldiers hidden in the opposite mountain.
"Tonight, find some soldiers who are familiar with the terrain opposite, put them in the clothes of ordinary people, put them down, and let them inquire separately. Two people in groups, put more than ten groups. Tomorrow morning, we will pull them up!" Zhang Rong said to the general beside him.
"Yes, Duke!" the general bowed his hand and said immediately.
"Okay, Hao'er, don't you have any good things? Let's take dad to have a look!" Zhang Rong continued to look at Zhang Hao with a smile and said.
There was no way, the stupid son still had to coax him a little. Soon, the father and son arrived on an open space below.
"Dad, look at this, the craftsmen made it!" Zhang Hao said as he took three grenades from the craftsman behind.
"What is this?" Zhang Rong didn't understand and wanted to take it and take a look, but Zhang Hao took it and avoided it.
Now that Zhang Rong can't touch it, what if he pulls the lead, will it be endless?
"The firecracker is so powerful, I'll play it for you!" Zhang Hao had long thought about how to tell Zhang Rong. It's not to make Zhang Rong suspicious. He had doubts about himself yesterday, so it would be better to be careful.
"Well, it looks quite similar!" Zhang Rong nodded, looking at the long-handled grenade, it really looks very similar to a firecracker.
Zhang Hao pulled the lead at this moment and threw it into the distance. A loud bang shocked Zhang Rong and the soldiers. Zhang Rong realized that this thing was a good thing, so he told Zhang Hao: "Don't throw it away, this is very dangerous. Dad, go ahead and take a look. You guys stare at the second young master!"
After Zhang Rong finished speaking, he ran to the crater. When he saw that a large crater had exploded, and the iron sheets were scattered everywhere. When Zhang Hao saw his behavior like this, he knew that he had discovered the benefits of the grenade.
"Good thing!" Zhang Rong said and ran back and came to Zhang Hao.
"Haoer, how much more is this?" Zhang Rong stared at Zhang Hao and asked.
"I'm still working. I put a lot of iron filings in it. When I exploded, the iron filings flew all over the sky. It was amazing!" Zhang Hao continued to remind Zhang Rong and said.
"Come here, send someone to watch the craftsmen immediately. They are not allowed to leave, nor are they allowed to talk to others. Also, go and buy 10 live pigs. I want to live!" Zhang Rong said excitedly, then reached out to ask for Zhang Hao's grenade.
"What are you doing? I want to play!" Zhang Hao pretended to be reluctant and hid behind him.
"Give it to dad, this thing is dangerous, give it to dad quickly!" Zhang Rong scolded Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao pretended to be very wronged and gave it to Zhang Rong.
"Okay, this is not heavy, it can be thrown far away!" Zhang Rong held it in his hand and thought about how to use these grenades.
Soon, the live pigs were sent over. Zhang Rong asked them to tie one of their legs and tied them to the open space. Then Zhang Rong threw them away himself.
At this moment, many generals came over. Looking at Zhang Rong throwing it, the bombardment made the pigs howl. Several pigs fell to the ground on the spot. Zhang Rong and other generals ran over and checked the pigs in person.
"Dude, this is a powerful weapon!" a general said excitedly.
"Dude, as long as we have this, we are not afraid of them when fighting the Tatars. If we throw them like this, we can also injure them if we don't blow them to death!" Another general also thought of the use.
"No, I want to report to the emperor, I have to do it quickly!" Can Zhang Rong not understand the importance of this thing? It is to produce in large quantities now.
Zhang Rong took the remaining grenade and came over to hold Zhang Hao's hand, wanting to go to the Yuxi Palace in Xiyuan to find the emperor.
At this time, in the alchemy room of Yuxi Palace, Lu Fang was sending a memorial for approval and was reciting it. As long as Jiajing didn't make a sound, he would be satisfied. He would be sent to the cabinet at that time. If he was not satisfied, the emperor would make a sound, either ringing the bell or throwing a book, anyway, as long as he could make a sound.
After Lu Fang finished reading all of it, she stood there waiting for Jiajing to speak.
"The army of the kings of all walks of life have not arrived yet? Are they still Tatar soldiers outside the city?" Jiajing asked while sitting on the platform.
"It will take three days at the earliest to support the royal army from all walks of life. Early this morning, I heard that there were more Tatar soldiers outside the city." Lu Fang replied immediately.
"What strategy does Ding Rukui have? He has not been motivated?" Jiajing continued to ask.
"Back to the emperor, there is not yet. Maybe it's waiting for the arrival of various royal soldiers." Lu Fang replied again.
"Hmph, then let them burn, kill and rob outside the city? Where is the people of the Ming Dynasty?" Jiajing said very dissatisfied.
Lu Fang immediately bowed her head and bent down and did not dare to speak.
"I have all been killed in the capital, but I haven't resisted? Where did they let my old face go? How do I face those people?" Jiajing continued to scold.
Lu Fang still said nothing, then Jiajing took a deep breath and said, "I want to see if I really have no one available in the Ming Dynasty? Is there anything else?"
"There are the Minister of War, two ministers, and five ministers, the Minister of Personnel, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Rights and Rights, the Minister of Revenue, the Minister of Revenue, the Minister of Revenue, and the Three ministers. There are more than a dozen censors who wrote a letter to impeach Zhang Hao and Zhang Manzi, saying that the Lord guarding the city was injured Qiu Luan! According to the law, he should be executed!" Lu Fang immediately reported in detail about the impeachment.
After hearing this, Jiajing didn't say anything, and Lu Fang didn't dare to leave, and he didn't know what the emperor was thinking. After a while, Jiajing said, "Let the Jinyiwei take Zhang Manzi to prison!"
