Chapter 1277: Traitor or loyal minister

"That was the enthronement of his countless military achievements over the past five years, and the court promoted it. It was not a private reward from the late emperor or me!" Zhu Mai retorted sharply.
"If it was really the late emperor or Your Majesty rewarded him, that would be great!" Zhang Tongchang's face was not panicked. Instead, he sighed, "In this way, I don't have to be at ease day and night, and I'll worry about the court and Your Majesty. As long as your Majesty gives orders, you can take back the vassals and army in the hands of the King of Wu. Why worry about me? But because the title and army of King of Wu were gradually accumulated over five years, his civil and military under his tent was only loyal to him, so that his Majesty would become a major concern for Your Majesty and the court in the future! I actually don't think that Your Majesty is a treacherous minister and a counter-meanor... But no one has long-term plans, and he must have immediate worries. Now that the King of Wu's power is gradually becoming, to say the heart-wrenching words, if the King of Wu really raises an army to attack Yingtian Prefecture, Your Majesty is somewhat sure that he can compete with the King of Wu's Northern Expedition Army? If the King of Wu is in Jiangbei this time, he will be afraid that even the people in Jiangbei will return to the King of Wu...!"
"Rareless!" Zhu Mai was furious and screamed.
"I am afraid." It is said to be panic, but Zhang Tongchang's backbone was still straight, and there was no sign of panic on his face.
The king and his subjects looked at each other and did not speak for a long time.
After a long time, Zhu Mai finally spoke. She sighed slightly, "I... I understand what Zhang Qing meant. Before his deceased brother passed away, actually... hey, but after all, the King of Wu is fighting for the country and innocently harming him... I, I will never... agree!"
Zhang Tongchang said leisurely: "Your Majesty naturally cannot easily harm meritorious ministers. With the lessons of the previous emperor, how can you do this ridiculous thing again?"
Zhu Moe was a little stunned and looked at Zhang Tongchang.
Zhang Tongchang said lightly: "On the battlefield, there is no eyebrow in swords and swords. The King of Wu led the way and went to the front line to command... Maybe something unexpected may not be decided. Your Majesty has a broad mind and a kind heart. Naturally, he will not harm the meritorious ministers, but the enemy...he will not ask for it."
No matter how stupid Zhu Ma was, she understood what Zhang Tongchang said. She glared at Zhang Tongchang in shock and said angrily: "You... are bold, how dare you conspire with the enemy to harm the King of Wu in the current dynasty?!"
When Zhang Tongchang heard this, he suddenly stood up and whispered: "Your Majesty is wronged. Even if you are an animal, you dare not associate with the enemy, so that the ancestors of the Zhang family will be ashamed... But this matter does not require intercourse with the enemy, so that everything you want will come true."
Zhu Ma was indeed shocked. She was in doubt about Wu Zheng. Even the rumors that she wanted to marry Zhang Tongchang could not change the knowledge of anyone with a discerning eye.
But as a member of the Zhu family, Zhu Ma's first request was to restore the former glory of the Zhu family's ancestral temple, which was understandable.
A strong minister is on the side, and a strong minister is weak. After five years of Zhu Mei, if she doesn't know about this, she would be really stupid.
But even so, Zhu Mai didn't want to harm Wu Zheng, at least... she didn't want to endanger Wu Zheng's personal safety.
Obviously, Zhang Tongchang did not understand this part of Zhu Mai’s mind, obsession.
Zhu Ma Shi waved his hand quickly and said, "I don't want to listen... I'm tired, you, let's go."
Zhang Tongchang bowed silently and slowly retreated outward.
When he arrived at the door, Zhu Mai shouted: "If I don't agree with this matter, you dare to make a decision without authorization, I... I will kill your family!"
Zhang Tonggao paused, bent over and paused for a moment, and responded in a deep voice: "I... obey the order."
....
He poked left and right and hugged Zhu Cunfu, who was holding the beautiful concubine.
She smiled like a Maitreya Buddha.
But his words were very sharp.
"Sir, Lord Ma, are you asking for this king?"
Huang Daozhou looked unwilling, and Ma Shiying laughed and said, "Yes... the prince said yes, I really have to ask the prince for help in this matter. Now, the Yixing court, who else can we ask for besides the prince?"
Zhu Cunbu laughed loudly, laughing so hard that he leaned back and forth.
Ma Shiying laughed dryly with her.
But suddenly, Zhu Cunbu laughed and said, "I shouldn't! Unless Wu Zheng came to ask me for it in person... No, even if Wu Zheng came in person and knelt in front of me and asked me, I shouldn't answer!"
Huang Daozhou was angry and stood up suddenly and said, "King of Qin, this matter is related to the situation of the war in Jiangbei. If it is delayed, the great cause of the Northern Expedition will become a dream..."
"What's wrong with me?"
Zhu Cunfu's words made Huang Daozhou choke, "You...!"
"There are more than 30,000 royal families in Yingtian Prefecture and Jiangnan. In one day, there were only less than 8,000 people left... Wu Zheng is so cruel!" Zhu Cunbu's fat face narrowed into a line, but his eyes were needles and pointed needles.
"You go back and tell Wu Zheng that if he can fight, he will fight. It is his ability to recover the entire country. But if he can't fight, then he will be obediently back to the south bank. In the future, he will just hide from me when he meets me... Want me to help him with your help? Dream!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Cunfu waved his sleeves and shouted: "Send out the guests!"
Huang Daozhou could no longer help and said angrily: "Zhu Cunfu, do you know the reason why the lips are gone and the teeth are cold? Once the King of Wu is destroyed, the next one is Yixingchao, and then you... How can you finish the eggs in the vast nest?"
"Bold! How dare you call me the name of this king? This is my palace, I can ask you!" Zhu Cunfu said angrily.
But Huang Daozhou said contemptuously: "Huang is the chief minister of the dynasty. He can be exempted from all criminal responsibility if he eliminates the crime of treason... Besides, if you want to take Huang, I am afraid that it is not something that you, a prince, can do?"
"You...!" Zhu Cunbu was choked, gasped for a few breaths, and said with hatred, "Well, Huang Daozhou, you are lucky today... I am generous and don't do much for myself. I will let you live... But remember, your backer is about to fall, don't fall into my palm in the future, then... Hehe, I will make you worse than death!"
Huang Daozhou retorted: "Don't worry, there is no one day, take a step back. If there is really one day, Huang will kill himself, and it won't be a burden to you."
Seeing the two of them facing Mai Mang, Ma Shiying quickly interrupted: "The two are both high-ranking and powerful decent people. What's the point of making such a quarrel... What's the point of doing? King Qin, can you hear Ma say something more?"
Zhu Cunbu actually didn't dare to make a real embarrassment and harm Huang Daozhou. As soon as his power was not yet at the point where he could cover the sky with his own hands. Although more than 8,000 royal families in Yingtian Mansion were under his control, there was still an emperor. At the same time, Zhang Tongchang, the commander of the Jinyiwei Guard by the emperor, was not a vegetarian. If Zhang Tongchang really wanted to replay the appearance of Zhu Cihuang's mansion, it was not a fun thing.
Zhu Cunbu shook his sleeves angrily and said, "If you have something to say, just say it, if you have farts, just let it go!"
Ma Shiying yelled, concealed the embarrassment and the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "The prince is indeed an open-minded person... That's right, the prince is jealous of His Highness the King of Wu. It's common sense, but once in a while, if the King of Wu was defeated or even destroyed, who would the prince think the biggest beneficiary would be?"
