Returning to the Ming Dynasty as a Corrupt Emperor

Transmigrated to the Great Ming Dynasty, I became Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the Carpenter Emperor. Well then, I'll hide behind the scenes; I'll take the blame, and you all go die.

Chapter 674: Alarming the Ultimate Elder

"Zheng Xuhong found it from Park In-yong." said the King of Korea.

As soon as he finished speaking, the King of Korea and Zheng Xuhong both stared at Zhang Fu, wanting to see if there was any change in his facial expression.

But both of them were disappointed. Apart from anger and confusion, there seemed to be nothing else on Zhang Fu's face.

"This is a frame-up." Zhang Fu said angrily, "We must get to the bottom of this. Your Majesty, we must arrest Park In-yong and follow his lead to find out who is framing me!"

"Park In-yong is dead." Zheng Xuhong took a step forward and said, "The news just came in."

"How did he die?" Zhang Fu's face became even uglier, and he asked in a deep voice.

Without hiding anything, Zheng Xuhong told Zhang Fu everything, and then stood by and watched Zhang Fu.

"What a powerful method." Zhang Fu said in admiration.

At this time, his emotions had calmed down and his facial expression had returned to calm.

As a person who has reached a high position at a young age, Zhang Fu naturally has his own strategy and will not be swayed by emotions.

After listening to Zheng Xuhong's story, Zhang Fu probably understood what was going on. He looked up at the King of Joseon and said, "Your Majesty, I definitely did not do this. If I did, I would never have left such a letter and put myself in this situation."

"If this letter is in Park In-yong's hands, wouldn't that be like handing him the evidence against me? How could I be so foolish? This is a frame-up!"

"But this matter is hard to explain." Zheng Xuhong said nearby: "If someone is framing us, then this matter will probably be hidden outside. Even if no one wants to expose it, someone will."

The three of them looked very unhappy.

That hits the nail on the head.

At this time, another person ran in from outside.

He walked in hurriedly and said directly, "Your Majesty, Lord Zheng, Lord Zhang, there is news from the Park family. Lord Jin Zhengmin went to the Park family."

After hearing this, the expressions of the three people changed.

Kim Jong-min, Park Jong-yang's teacher, the oldest of the veteran faction, is already 72 years old. This old man is usually silent, and after the decline of the veteran faction, he also returned home.

The court gave him some honors and then ignored him. But who would have thought that he would come out of retirement at this time?

The death of his own student alarmed this old man. Compared with him, Park Zhengyang's prestige was not even a little bit lower.

Kim Jong-min had students at the local and central levels, and his followers were all over the country. The Injo rebellion was basically planned by this old man and Queen Inmok.

Now, this old guy has come out. What should I do?

"Your Majesty," Zheng Xuhong looked at the King of Korea with a hesitant expression on his face and said, "Should I go over and take a look first?"

Zhang Fu on the side also had a very ugly expression on his face, but he didn't say anything about going over to see.

If someone was plotting against me, I'd already fallen into their trap. If I went, I might not be able to come back.

"Okay." The King of Korea nodded and said, "Go immediately. If there is anything, please reply as soon as possible."

"Yes, my king." Zheng Xuhong agreed and turned to walk outside.

He held his head high and chest out, taking big steps, with the passion of a warrior who would never return, as the wind whistled and the Yi River was cold.

Zheng Xuhong knew in her heart that she had to go this time. Originally, she had no business getting involved, but the king had insisted. Now that she had one foot in, her legs were covered in mud, and it was impossible to get out.

Rather than passively waiting, it is better to take the initiative. Even when facing Kim Jong-min, Zheng Xuhong was unwilling to back down.

Inside the Ming Dynasty Embassy.

Zhang Yu sat there drinking tea, holding the teacup in his hand and taking a sip gently. The expression on his face was very calm, with a gentle and leisurely feeling.

Song Xiang stood behind him, gently waving a folding fan in her hand, with a look of curiosity on her face. She then asked, "Aren't you worried at all?"

"What's there to worry about?" Zhang Yu said with a smile, "Once the arrow is shot, there's no turning back. I don't believe they can still turn the tables after all the planning I've done. We've mobilized so much manpower and resources this time. If we still fail, I won't stay in Korea anymore. I'll just return to the capital!"

Song Xiang looked at Zhang Yu with an inexplicable expression on her face. She smiled gently and said, "I like the way you look so confident, as if nothing in this world can stump you."

Hearing this, Zhang Yu smiled bitterly, then said helplessly: "Why not? I don't know how to tell my wife about you when I go back. It gives me a headache just thinking about it."

Song Xiang snorted coldly and said, "Do you regret it?"

"No, no." Zhang Yu quickly waved his hand and said, "You know I'm not the type to think about random things. Things have already happened, so I have to think about how to solve them. It's just that at the moment, I don't have any good solutions."

"You think too much." Song Xiang said unhappily.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Yu looked at Song Xiang and asked.

"Do you think your wife doesn't know? Your wife is counting on you to go to North Korea and stay there for several years to remain a virgin for her? You're overthinking it. Do you believe that your wife will accept it calmly after you return?"

"We'll talk about it later!" Zhang Yu waved his hand and said, "You can't deny what you did.

"Don't talk about this." Song Xiang rolled her eyes at Zhang Yu.
