Zhu Cheng returned to the capital in a very high profile, with few people and many cars. In addition to the ceremonial guards of Qianhu, Jinyiwei and the deputy of the Royal Palace Trial Office, he also made a flag with four big words written on it: Return to Beijing under the order.

Originally, he would not have passed the Gaopanlong Mansion from the imperial house to the palace, but Zhu Cheng had to go to the Gaopai to protest, which scared the servants of the Gaopai and quickly closed the door and locked it. They were not afraid of Zhu Cheng, but recognized Wu Huping. It was the house he had taken to the scout. His fierce look was really impressive. However, Zhu Cheng's demonstration was destined to fail. Gaopanlong was not at home, and he was still staying in the Palace of Supreme Harmony to discuss matters.

The Lords have learned about the content of the imperial edict through various joints, and some people even understand the content of the secret edict. Xu Xigao found that Emperor Tianqi loved Zhu Cheng very much, and was secretly shocked. He decided to make this matter bigger, so that all the civil and military officials in the court could recognize Zhu Cheng's true face and that the emperor could no longer shelter him.

Xu Xigao was afraid that Zhu Cheng would escape, so he sent dozens of people to guard the gate of the imperial village and must take him back to the capital, so that he could be punished by national laws and a warning to those who wanted to touch their lords.

Hearing that Zhu Cheng did not choose to escape, but went to Beijing to confront him. Xu Xigao signaled that the Lord who jointly impeached Zhu Cheng to contact all the officials in Beijing to delay the morning court and must delay until the moment Zhu Cheng returned to the palace.

Emperor Tianqi felt that the atmosphere of the morning court was very strange. The ministers suddenly turned into mother-in-laws and talked endlessly. Then he whispered to Wei Zhongxian: "Parent Wei, look at how these ministers seem to have changed their personalities. They talk endlessly and there is nothing big about it."

Wei Zhongxian thought for a while and said, "They are waiting for someone."

"Who are you waiting for?"

"Zhu Cheng."

Emperor Tianqi was shocked: "Can they be the lords colluding with court officials and must use the Hongmei thief to kill Brother Cheng's brother?"

"It seems that I can't be wrong. But please rest assured that the eunuch who was rumored to be rewarded, Zhu Cheng seemed to be confident."

Emperor Tianqi was still a little worried and said, "I figured it out. Brother Cheng once said that you can't avenge in life, what's the point? This time I'll cover him up. What's the point? An emperor can't even protect his own brother. What's the point of doing this emperor?"

As the two were talking, the eunuch of Sili reported loudly: "The thousand households of Jinyiwei, the deputy trial of the Royal Court Office, Mr. Zhu Cheng and Zhu asked for a meeting!"

Wei Zhongxian sang: "Xuan!"

Zhu Cheng followed the eunuch into the hall. As soon as he entered the hall, he pushed the golden mountain, turned the jade pillar, and knelt on the ground to greet Emperor Tianqi.

After the mountain shouted, Zhu Cheng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I'm really embarrassed to come here in a hurry this time. I didn't have time to bring some fresh vegetables."

The Emperor of Heaven couldn't help but smiled slightly. He was used to hearing verbal calls in the court. This greeting method like the people in the city made him feel friendly.

A censor angrily scolded: "Zhu Cheng, stop talking, what a serious place in the court is, how can you make jokes?"

Zhu Cheng turned his head and glared at the censor. His eyes were like lightning and knife, which made the censor take two or three steps back.

Zhu Cheng said: "You minister, keep your mouth shut. The imperial edict ordered me to grow vegetables for the emperor in the imperial village in the west of Jing. Planting vegetables is my job. What's wrong with the emperor's above-mentioned position? If I don't want to create trouble, I will first consider you, but you dare to regard the emperor's imperial edict as nothing."

The censor was speechless and retreated aside awkwardly. The ministers were also secretly frightened. Fortunately, they did not jump out. Unexpectedly, Zhu Cheng went to the countryside for half a month and his ability to quarrel was not retreating but instead advanced.

Seeing that the ministers were not talking, Xu Xigao had to go barefoot and said, "Zhu Cheng, you did a good thing."

Zhu Cheng glanced at him and said, "Thank you for your praise, but who are you?"

Xu Xigao's face turned red with anger and said, "I am Xu Xigao."

Zhu Cheng still looked confused: "I don't know."

Xu Xigao said: "I am Duke Ding."

Zhu Cheng said: "Oh, I have long been admired, long-term. Wouldn't it be better to say that earlier? You know that I am a young man and have a bad memory. I can only remember some people who do practical things and big things, such as Yu Qian, Zhang Juzheng, Fang Congzhe, etc., you lords are really hard to remember."

Xu Xigao's face turned red, and Zhu Cheng's words did not contain a single dirty word, but he scolded him ruthlessly. The implication was that he was not a person who did practical things or big things. Although he admitted this, it would be so embarrassing to say it in person.

The ministers were talking a lot, and everyone really admired Yu Qian when he saved the Ming Dynasty in danger; Fang Congzhe was the chief minister of the dynasty, and no one dared to have any objections; Zhang Juzheng was the criminal appointed by Emperor Wanli, so he took it to the court to say, is it inappropriate?

When Zhang Juzheng was in power, he demolished the Tianxia Academy and had many conflicts with the Donglin Party. The Donglin Party finally beat the fallen dog while Zhang Juzheng was dead and made Zhang Juzheng smelly. This is a great contribution that the Donglin Party believes. Isn’t Zhu Cheng overturning the verdict for him, and isn’t he going to erase this great contribution?

The Donglin Party does everything, only two things cannot do, even this cannot do, and that cannot do it. There is finally a case of being a good one, which is to criticize Zhang Juzheng, who is criticized by thousands of people. If the case is overturned, the Donglin Party will really not do anything practical. But then again, if it is not overturned, the Donglin Party seems to have done nothing practical.

Gao Panlong did not want to conflict with Zhu Cheng, but this involved the fundamental interests of the Donglin Party, so he bit the bullet and said, "Zhang Juzheng is a criminal named by Emperor Xian of Shenzong. It is a bit inappropriate for Lord Zhu to say that he is a person who does practical things."

Zhu Cheng said: "Emperor Shenzong Xian summoned me before the grand ceremony and said that Zhang Juzheng was guilty was a bit too much. Mr. Zhang did have some problems, but his contribution was still very great. The former emperor left a will to ask Emperor Guangzong Zhen to rehabilitate Mr. Zhang. Unfortunately, Emperor Guangzong Zhen left too fast..."

Gao Panlong said: "Nonsense, why have I never heard of this before?"

Zhu Cheng said: "How could you have heard of such a high-level thing? Go and ask Lu Shou, the eunuch who is next to Emperor Shenzong Xian, and you will understand it as soon as you ask."

Gao Panlong's face turned red and said, "I am indeed not qualified to listen to the legacy of Emperor Shenzong Xian, but I heard that Lu Shou had returned to his hometown to retire. Is what you said true or false? Does anyone know?"

Zou Yuanbiao said, "Don't ask Lu Shou. The king summons the ministers. The historian needs to follow the records. Just ask the historian to come out to confront each other."

Zou Yuanbiao was Zhang Juzheng's disciple, but Zhang Juzheng was determined to reform, and the two had already turned against each other and had the same power. Now, the Ming Dynasty is full of troubles, and Zou Yuanbiao has fully understood Zhang Juzheng and has saved Zhang Juzheng's intention to rehabilitate him.

The historian was actually the Donglin Party, but he did not dare to lie in this matter, so he said, "Emperor Shenzong Xian did say such things."

When Emperor Tianqi heard this, he said, "Since that's the case, let's rehabilitate Mr. Zhang. It's really pitiful that a generation of heroes ended up like this. Look up, Mr. Zhang has left behind descendants. If there are descendants, give him an official."

Zou Yuanbiao burst into tears. He and many officials who sympathized with Zhang Juzheng thanked the emperor for his kindness.
