"What, Zhao Zhenji! What is he doing here?"
As soon as the subordinate officer finished speaking, Xu Jie suddenly stood up from his seat, with a look of surprise on his face that could not be concealed.
In fact, it's no wonder that Xu Jie was so nervous about Zhao Zhenji's arrival. Xu Jie vaguely remembered that Zhao Zhenji came to the cabinet several times, but nothing good happened. One time was because Li Chunfang was suspected of corruption, and the remaining few times were because someone was impeaching important officials in the court.
Suddenly, such an idea suddenly appeared in Xu Jie's mind.
"Could it be that those officials want to take this opportunity to impeach me to His Majesty?"
Thinking of this, the expression on Xu Jie's face suddenly became extremely ugly. In his opinion, this was entirely possible. After all, he had just turned against those officials not long ago.
Yan Song, who was on the side, saw Xu Jie being so rude. He gloated in his heart and coughed twice. He replaced Xu Jie and gave instructions to the subordinate official.
"Well, since Mr. Zhao has something very important, let him come in!"
"Yes, Mr. Yan Ge!"
Seeing this, the subordinate official walked away after observing the expression on Xu Jie's face uneasily.
After the subordinate official left, Yan Song turned his eyes to Xu Jie and spoke unhurriedly.
"Mr. Xu Ge, you don't have to be nervous, these people from our cabinet are all here!"
Hearing Yan Song's words, Xu Jie suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately sat back down in his seat with a normal expression.
Not long after, Zhao Zhenji was seen entering the cabinet under the guidance of the previous subordinate.
After Zhao Zhenji looked around, he bowed his hands to everyone and said respectfully.
"I have met all the ministers!"
"Um."
Upon seeing this, Yan Song responded in a subtle way and immediately asked.
"By the way, Mr. Zhao, what exactly do you want to report when you come to the cabinet this time?"
When Zhao Zhenji heard this, he subconsciously looked at Xu Jie aside, but he hesitated to speak.
Seeing this situation, Xu Jie couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart, and said to himself: "It seems that my previous guess was correct. Those officials will definitely not let this opportunity go!"
Not long after, Xu Jie came back to his senses, turned his gaze to Zhao Zhenji, and urged him.
"Master Zhao, don't be so nagging. If you have anything to say, just say, what happened?"
When Zhao Zhenji heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, immediately took out the impeachment memorial from his sleeve, and spoke in detail.
"Xu...Mr. Xu Ge, those officials used the solar eclipse that happened not long ago as an excuse to try to get His Majesty to take back his life. Moreover, they impeached you in the memorial, saying that you bewitched Your Majesty and acted so perversely. Things!"
Hearing this, Xu Jie became surprisingly angry. His Majesty obviously promoted this matter personally, but he wanted to put the blame on himself!
Putting this matter aside for now, these damn bastards actually dare to take this opportunity of a solar eclipse to impeach me, Xu Jie!
At this moment, Xu Jie had already greeted the group of officials and the Qin Tianjian who had "done nothing" in his heart.
"Damn Yan Guan, damn Qin Tian Jian, just watch, I will never spare you!"
On the one hand, Xu Jie was angry that those officials dared to impeach him. On the other hand, he was angry that the Qintian Prison did nothing and did not even know that a solar eclipse was about to occur recently. This led to him falling into such a passive state. in the situation.
After a while, Xu Jie came back to his senses and gave instructions to Zhao Zhenji with a normal expression.
"Well, in that case, let me show you the impeachment memorial!"
"Yes, Mr. Xu Ge!"
After the words fell, Zhao Zhenji came to Xu Jie and carefully handed the impeachment memorial in his hand to Xu Jie's hands.
Seeing Xu Jie taking the impeachment memorial from his hands, Zhao Zhenji immediately stepped aside, with an even more worried look on his face, because he had read the contents before.
The contents of the impeachment memorial were indeed not very friendly to Xu Jie. Those officials had already equated Xu Jie with Cai Jing, Qin Hui and others!
Sure enough, after Xu Jie finished browsing the contents of the impeachment memorial, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and he immediately slammed the table and said in a deep voice.
"Those damn bastards, how dare they use this matter to..."
Yan Song on the side saw Xu Jie being so excited, and immediately stood up and asked Xu Jie.
"Mr. Xu Ge, can you show me this impeachment memorial?"
Regarding Yan Song's request, Xu Jie naturally took matters into his own hands and handed the impeachment memorial to Yan Song's hands without thinking.
Yan Song took the impeachment memorial from Xu Jie and began to read it carefully.
Apart from the above words of impeachment against Xu Jie, what Yan Song is most concerned about is whether those officials are making a fuss about this solar eclipse in order to blackmail His Majesty into taking back his life!
After Yan Song finished browsing the contents of the impeachment memorial, he sighed helplessly and said slowly.
"Well, now that things have happened, we can only send this impeachment memorial to the Chief of Ceremonies, so that His Majesty can be prepared and not be too passive!"
After Yan Song finished speaking, as if he was consulting everyone's opinions, he turned to ask.
"What do you think?"
Seeing that Yan Song, the chief minister of the cabinet, had already made a decision, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, and Yan Shifan did not raise any objections to it.
Xu Jie on the side nodded and said after thinking about it for a long time.
"Oh, now that things have come to an end, this is all we can do!"
Seeing that the matter had settled, Zhao Zhenji on the side wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to escape as soon as possible.
He bowed his hands to everyone and suggested.
"Now that the ministers have settled the matter, the mission of Xiaguan's trip has been completed. There is no point in staying here any longer. I will leave now!"
After Zhao Zhenji finished speaking, he was about to leave. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Yan Song just after taking a few steps.
"Master Zhao, wait, I have something I need you to do!"
When Zhao Zhenji heard this, he suddenly stopped, turned around, smiled stiffly, and said respectfully.
"Old Yan Ge, just tell me, I will definitely handle the matter properly!"
Seeing that Zhao Zhenji was so righteous, Yan Song nodded slightly and spoke unhurriedly.
"Actually, it's not a big deal. I just need a small favor from you, Mr. Zhao!"
When Zhao Zhenji heard this, he couldn't help but raise his vigilance to the highest level, and then said in a deep voice.
"Please give Mr. Yan Ge a clear explanation!"
After Yan Song heard this, he turned his gaze to Zhao Zhenji and immediately gave instructions.
"I hope Mr. Zhao can compile a list of those officials who impeached Mr. Xu and wrote letters asking His Majesty to take back their orders, and then hand it over to me!"
When Zhao Zhenji heard this, his face was full of fear, and he trembled: "Yan... Mr. Yan Ge, is there something wrong with this..."
However, before Zhao Zhenji finished speaking, he met Yan Song's gaze.
The moment the two parties made eye contact, Zhao Zhenji understood that there was no room for negotiation on this matter.
Immediately, he lowered his head and responded respectfully.
"Yes, Mr. Yan Ge!"
