Seven Days to Save the Great Ming? I'd Rather Hang Myself

Good news: Zhu Lian transmigrated, becoming Emperor Chongzhen of the Great Ming, Zhu Youjian.

Bad news: Today is the tenth day of the third month of Chongzhen's seventeenth year, and Li Z...

Chapter 23 The Four-Party Conspiracy

The other three people gasped at the same time.

Under normal circumstances they would definitely not believe such remarks, but today Chongzhen's behavior was too abnormal.

Not only did he execute the favored Prime Minister of the Cabinet, but he also wanted to punish the Duke of Chengguo and the Minister of War.

Especially for Duke Chengguo Zhu Chunchen, according to convention, he would not be punished as long as he did not commit serious crimes such as treason.

It's unheard of!

They are not afraid of being dismissed from office.

Ups and downs in officialdom are common, and Chongzhen's personality is capricious, so they had already made corresponding mental preparations.

What I’m afraid of is house raiding!

Once the house is confiscated, all the previous decades of hard work will be destroyed.

They must find a way to avoid this outcome.

Shen Weibing thought for a while but couldn't come up with a clue, so he had to bow to Zhang Fengxiang and said, "If this is true, does Brother Zhiyu have any good ideas?"

Seeing this, Dang Chongya and Yang Rucheng also bowed and asked, "Brother Zhiyu is knowledgeable, please help us."

Zhang Fengxiang looked at the other three people. Although he wanted to kill his friends rather than himself, considering that they all had evidence that was unfavorable to him, he had to think seriously about countermeasures.

After a moment, a countermeasure quickly took shape in his mind, "In this case, I will give you an idea."

"Brother Zhiyu, please speak!"

"Sorry to bother you, Brother Zhiyu."

"If Chongzhen and Li Banghua punish you for corruption, you should impeach the royal family and the nobles in the court and accuse them of corruption. Remember, you must not make false accusations. You must have evidence. You can buy the evidence from Wang Zhixin."

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Yes, Chongzhen dared to attack the royal family? If we have to die, we will die together.

"Secondly, you should do whatever Chongzhen and the cabinet tell you to do. Do not do one more or one less, and never let him catch you."

"Third, when you go back tonight, move all the cash and valuables in your home to other places. It can be a bank, a pawnshop, or a fellow villager's home. As long as they can't find the money, they won't be able to punish you."

"Although my family doesn't have much money, it's not small either. The movement will definitely cause a lot of noise..." Shen Weibing said worriedly.

"Don't worry, as long as you pay the bribe, the Patrol Battalion, the Imperial Guards, and the Eastern Depot won't be able to see anything."

(The imperial court stipulated that the Bingmasi patrolled during the day and the patrol camp at night, while the Jinyiwei patrolled day and night without time restrictions.)

"That's great!"

“Great!”

Shen Weibing, Yang Rucheng and Dang Chongya all bowed deeply to Zhang Fengxiang with satisfied looks on their faces.
