After Sun Ru was imprisoned, the court was shrouded in a strange atmosphere every day. Everyone lowered their voices even when they spoke, and they couldn't tell what they were afraid of.
The Sun family secretly went to Zhou Cishan to discuss countermeasures. Zhou Cishan did not expect that the person coming would be Mr. Sun, Sun Ru's father.
Old Mrs. Sun's beard and hair were all white. After Sun Ru's accident, he became much haggard overnight and looked even more aged. The Zhou family is a thousand-year-old family, and two queen mothers have emerged one after another. Although the power is stronger than that of the Sun family, Zhou Cishan does not dare to show off in front of Old Mrs. Sun. After all, Old Mrs. Sun is also an important minister of the San Dynasty, and he is very old and virtuous. He supports Old Mrs. Sun. After taking a seat, he sat down.
"Mr. Zhou, our two families support each other and are indistinguishable from each other. We should be united as one." Old Mrs. Sun looked solemn and said calmly, "Now that the Sun family is in trouble, I have the audacity to come to ask for help. I hope the Zhou family will lend a helping hand."
Zhou Cishan hurriedly replied: "Mr. Sun's words are serious. Brother Sun has been framed by a villain, and I will never sit idly by and ignore it. But this matter may not be simple."
Old Mrs. Sun said: "What did Mr. Zhou discover?"
Zhou Cishan lowered his eyes, played with the small-leaf red sandalwood in his hand, and said thoughtfully: "To tell you the truth, all the ministers of Fenghua Palace have read Shen Jinghong's memorial to impeach Brother Sun. Some private information in it was leaked from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Out."
Old Mrs. Sun was shocked when he heard this and straightened his back: "Mr. Zhou, this is..."
Zhou Cishan raised his hand to comfort Mr. Sun and said, "Please rest assured, sir. This matter is definitely not my fault. I have already found out clearly. The person who handled these confidential information is Mu Zhuohua, a doctor in the household department."
Although Mr. Sun is not in the court, he has heard of Mu Zhuohua's reputation. After all, such a young Tanhua is still a woman.
Zhou Cishan added: "Mu Zhuohua and Shen Jinghong were ranked in the same year, and now they have won the trust of His Majesty. Mu Zhuohua is in the household department, and Shen Jinghong was in the official department before. These two departments are the most important departments of the six departments. His Majesty deliberately cultivated the two of them. Last year, Shen Jinghong presided over the affairs of the Examination Department and strongly advocated the abolition of the grace system. This move was obviously supported by His Majesty's instructions and the king's mediation, otherwise he would be a small person. Minister, how dare you make enemies of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty?"
A gloomy look flashed across Old Mrs. Sun's face: "What does Master Zhou mean? What Shen Jinghong did against the Sun family this time was also His Majesty's intention?"
Zhou Cishan smiled coldly and said: "Mu Zhuohua handed over the household information to Shen Jinghong in private. Without His Majesty's permission, would she dare? Shen Jinghong abolished the grace system last year based on performance appraisal, and officials below the third rank were dismissed With no way out, it is impossible to leave the Beijing inspection affairs to him this year, but His Majesty transferred him to Dali Temple. This is probably not a coincidence. Cut off the branches first, then the trunk. Shen Jinghong, no, it should be Your Majesty, he is ambitious and wants to attack the noble family."
Old Mrs. Sun's heart sank. What if His Majesty intends to deal with the Sun family?
"I heard that the King of Councilors also seconded the proposal to support Your Majesty." Old Mrs. Sun's face turned pale. "Your Majesty appointed the King as King of Councilors. He originally wanted to use his prestige to restrict the family. Could it be that His Majesty has only been on the throne for less than a year? Can't hold it any longer?"
