Chapter 180 This is a Battle of Honor
Yun Zheng raised her eyebrows. She originally wanted to wait for a while until she understood the situation of Guangchusi before kicking Zheng Qingfeng out.
However, this situation cannot be peacefully coexisted.
She never takes the initiative to cause trouble, but she is not afraid of trouble either!
"Heard? Who did you hear that from? Your daughter, the Second Madam of the Qian family?"
Zheng Qingfeng appeared to be speaking up for Old Madam Qian, but in reality, he was speaking up for himself.
He was very wary of Yun Zheng in his heart. She had a powerful backer behind her, and she was ambitious and clearly came to seize power.
A mere doctor of the Guangchusi could not satisfy her wolfish ambition, and the first one to bear the brunt of the consequences was him, the chief officer.
The Qian family had previously conveyed the message that Yun Zheng had set his sights on the Guangchusi and wanted to take it over for their own use, and also wanted him to give up his position.
He was furious on the spot. Why? He had worked hard for decades and finally climbed to this position. No one could take it away from him.
He thought about it over and over again and decided that he must not tolerate it.
She should not be given any chance from the beginning, so that she has nothing and no one can use her, and she should be sidelined and become a puppet.
"You are unkind and unjust, unfit to be an official."
Women should stay in the backyard quietly, take care of their husbands and children, and should not show up in public and compete for power with men.
Yun Zheng was not angry at all. Instead, she calmly asked, "Master Zheng, do you know why I was able to become a fifth-rank official at the age of eighteen, while you, at such an old age, are still a fourth-rank official?"
This was a slap in his face. Zheng Qingfeng was furious and deliberately mocked him, "You can flatter, but I can't."
Yun Zheng chuckled, "You're wrong. You just listen to what others say and follow the crowd. You're a fool."
Zheng Qingfeng gasped in disbelief. On the first day, she dared to confront Shangguan? "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Yun Zheng taunted loudly, "If you hadn't married your daughter into the Qian family and hadn't gotten close to them, you wouldn't have been able to hold onto this position."
"You are just a pawn of the Qian family, why are you so arrogant?"
This really upset Mr. Zheng, he hated being told this the most.
He was so angry that he was shaking all over. "Bullshit, I am a second-class Jinshi, a serious scholar, and I have reached this position step by step on my own."
"When the Qian family married the Zheng family, I already had a position in the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
He and the Qian family are relatives and allies, not subordinates.
"I don't rely on relatives or nepotism, but on my own strength. Unlike some people, they get in through the back door by flattering others."
He spoke with indignation and extreme emotion.
Zhang Zongguan's eyes lit up surprisingly. A fight was about to break out! It would be best if both sides were injured!
Yun Zheng smiled slightly, then suddenly shouted, "Manager Zhang, I'm talking to you."
Manager Zhang: ...Me? ?
Mr. Zheng: ………!!!
Everyone looked at Manager Zhang. Well, he was indeed promoted by flattering the emperor. He didn't have much education and didn't take the imperial examination.
Look at Lord Zheng again. He is so brave that he actually says this about his immediate superior!
Zhang Zongguan was also shot while standing, and he was angry and annoyed, "Master Zheng, you are so brave."
Lord Zheng was sweating profusely. "I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about Princess Jinyun..."
Yun Zheng was unhappy. "Manager Zhang relies on the wet nurse, and I rely on the emperor. Who is more noble?"
Everyone was silent. There was nothing wrong with what he said.
Manager Zhang regretted it very much. He shouldn't have expected others to suppress Yun Zheng.
Her fighting power is too strong. She can kill one at a time and a pair at a time.
This is embarrassing.
Lord Zheng's lips were trembling, he was wiping the sweat off his face, his mind racing.
If she can use the emperor as a cover, he can also bring in all the civil and military officials in the court.
"Don't think that just because you have the Emperor's support, you can do whatever you want and ignore the entire court."
He pushed Yun Zheng to the opposite side of all the officials.
Yun Zheng pouted, "I've always been a peaceful person, kindhearted by nature, and never provoke others. But you went crazy and attacked me, slandered me, mocked me, and even asked the officials to vouch for you. How shameless!"
"Why should you be allowed to represent the entire court? Just because you're a lackey of the Qian family?"
Everyone was stunned. How could she, who was so sharp and cruel, have the nerve to boast that she was kind-hearted?
They almost don't recognize the four words "live in peace with the world".
Zheng Daren was furious. How could she not understand what he was saying? She had already said, no!
"The Qian family and I are relatives by marriage, and we are equals. Unlike you, you only know how to flatter and curry favor with your superiors."
Yun Zheng laughed, "Equality? You're just kidding yourself."
Lord Zheng was furious. "How dare you! I'm your superior. How dare you rebel against me? What's your punishment?"
Yun Zheng was too lazy to pay attention to him. She looked around and walked around the office area.
Lord Zheng watched her visiting as if no one was around, completely ignoring him, and felt helpless and furious.
Each department has an office, and the two heads of each department have one room, while the chief officer of the Guangchusi has a separate room, which is at the easternmost end of the main building.
Yun Zheng fell in love with it at first sight. "This room faces the sun and has plenty of light. I want it."
She ordered as a matter of course, "Whose stuff is this? Please pack it up. I want to move in."
Lord Zheng couldn't believe it. How dare he be so arrogant?
"Don't move around. That's my house. Princess Jinyun, please don't go too far."
If Lord Zheng retreats today, he will be kicked out of the scene and will never be able to gain the trust of his subordinates again.
This is a battle of honor, he cannot retreat!
"Princess, this is a government office. If you want to show off your power, please go somewhere else."
Was she grabbing the room? No, she was grabbing power, the right to speak!
He called the guard at the door and said, "Come here, drag her out and don't let her set foot in Guangchusi."
The guards looked at each other, at a loss.
Lord Qian was furious. "Why are you just standing there? Don't you want to do this anymore?"
Zi Yan stood in front of Yun Zheng, holding a long sword, staring coldly at everyone, "Who dares?"
Yun Zheng was not afraid at all, but rather eager to try. "Master Zheng, your Zheng family is in such a mess. Have you cleaned up your mess yet?"
Lord Zheng glared at her fiercely, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Yun Zheng took out a black book and flipped through it. "Let me see the Zheng family's mess."
Everyone immediately pricked up their ears.
Yun Zheng recited in a rhythmic voice, "The Zheng family's eldest son, who was having an affair with his father's concubine, didn't know whether the concubine gave birth to a brother or a son."
The whole audience was in an uproar, extremely excited. Is there such a thing? Wow, this is exciting.
Lord Zheng trembled all over, shaking as if he had seen an evil spirit.
"You are spreading rumors!"
"The second son of a concubine has destroyed the family by stealing the fertile land of others."
Yun Zheng suddenly exclaimed, "Ah, the Zheng family's eldest son is actually..."
At the critical moment, Lord Zheng's expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Enough, shut up."
Yun Zheng said with a smile, "Don't worry, I haven't finished reading it yet."
Lord Zheng closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, "I'll give this room to you."
But he actually gave in. Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. What happened to the Zheng family's eldest son? I really want to know!
