Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 395 What Are You Going To Do? (Add more rewards for Taoism, nature, intention and magic)
Hearing this, Zhang Pu subconsciously said: "He won't want it, he..."

As soon as he said this, he couldn't help being taken aback: He wouldn't want it, why did he want it himself?
Zhang Pu's mother was a little surprised when she heard this, and asked a little puzzled, "Why doesn't he want it? Could it be that he is a child of a family, and the family is not short of money?"

Hearing the voice, Zhang Pu came back to his senses, looked at his mother, and said with a complicated expression: "He was born in a poor family. In the 11th year of Chongzhen, he was hit by a war and became a refugee. to the East Factory."

When Zhang Pu's mother heard it, she was taken aback again, and said a little puzzled: "His family must have no money, so why wouldn't he want it?"

"Because he is from Dongchang, and his function is to supervise all officials; and because he hates corrupt officials..." Zhang Pu said, his voice slowly getting lower and lower, "Or, the emperor beat Dongchang The factory has rectified the factory guard..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned serious, and said to his mother: "Mother, why don't you forget it, although the money is exchanged between people, but the child feels a little uneasy."

When Zhang Pu's mother heard this, she was a little bit reluctant, so she asked him, "My son, don't you have a sacred heart? Are you afraid that the emperor will believe him and not you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Pu suddenly became more determined, and immediately said to his mother: "Mom, you don't know, my son is on an errand because he was ordered to do it. If he does it well, he will be valued by the emperor. What if he doesn't do it well?" Obtain the Sacred Heart. When I think about that time, I still feel scared..."

Mother and son have lived together for many years, so naturally they have nothing to say.While talking, Zhang Pu talked about the time when Emperor Chongzhen summoned him to see him and gave him his will, and told his mother everything.

Looking back on those years, Zhang Pu was really scared.At that time, he felt that he was being held to death by the emperor.Facing the emperor, I feel like I have nothing to hide.

"Your Majesty...is the Emperor so powerful?" Zhang Pu's mother was very surprised and asked in disbelief after hearing this.

Zhang Pu nodded vigorously when he heard this, and said without doubt: "Mother, don't you know that every time the court sends a report from the mansion, it can make the child feel more in awe of the emperor. The current emperor can infer from the clues The truth of the matter can be regarded as exhaustive. Mother, Zhuge Liang, you know it, right?"

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was already very popular in the late Ming Dynasty, and storytelling was everywhere.Although his mother didn't have much interest in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", she still knew Zhuge Liang's name, so she nodded.

Seeing his mother nodding, Zhang Pu said very seriously: "Nowadays in the officialdom, some people are saying that the emperor is even more Zhuge Liang than Zhuge Liang, so mother understands how smart the emperor is, right?"

"..." Zhang Pu's mother was stunned when she heard this. She couldn't imagine that the current emperor was so powerful?Then if his son wanted to fool the emperor, wouldn't it be like the old man hanging himself and seeking death?

For fear that his mother would not believe him, Zhang Pu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said, "Mother, please take a look, this is the latest mansion newspaper, which contains the emperor's speculation about the grassland war. Lead the army."

Speaking of this, he suddenly became a little more afraid and said: "The emperor has led the army many times, and he is used to seeing the dead and killing with iron and blood. I am afraid that he is used to it. It is definitely not comparable to other emperors who grew up in the palace!"

After hearing so much from her son, Zhang Pu's mother was finally scared, and quickly grabbed Zhang Pu's hand and said, "My son, it's because of my mother's mistake. You should refund all the money. As long as you can do well, you will be fine." It doesn't matter if you go through the hard days before."

Zhang Pu was originally a smart man, otherwise he would not have been bullied as a child born to a maidservant when he was young, but in the end he would have risen to the top abruptly.In the past, under the attack of sugar-coated shells, it gradually swelled, and I got carried away.Of course, this is also related to the officialdom of this period.

Now, after being reminded by Jiang Dong and having a comparison, he immediately came to his senses.

The emperor is not mediocre, but far more wise and powerful than ordinary emperors.Now that he often leads troops to fight, he has an iron and blood side.In the past, without blinking, more than 100 chief officials from various places took off their black hats at once, which proves this point even more.

You can deceive others, but you must not deceive the emperor, otherwise, with the emperor's shrewdness, it is easy to detect the truth.In that case, can he bear the emperor's thunderous wrath?

Thinking of this, Zhang Pu thought a little deeper.

I am running an errand now, and I don’t know how many people I have offended.However, precisely because the emperor was supporting him, those people were helpless against him.

However, once you do something you shouldn't do, it's easy to be taken advantage of by those who spy on you secretly. Whether it's revenge or threats, it's hard for you to deal with.

Thinking of this, Zhang Pu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and in just a moment, his whole body was completely wet, and the sweat on his forehead kept coming out: why did he forget that since he was ordered to go to Beijing for business, it has disappeared any way out.How could you forget the root cause of being flattered now!
"My son, what's the matter with you? Don't scare your mother!" Seeing him like this, Zhang Pu's mother couldn't help being frightened, and asked very worriedly, "What happened suddenly? You can't do anything Ah, if something happens to you, what can mother do?"

Hearing this, Zhang Pu was shocked again.That's right, if something really happened to me, would my mother still have a way out?
Thinking of this, Zhang Pu couldn't help but took a deep breath, forced a smile, and comforted his mother: "Mother, it's okay, the baby is fine, it's okay, I just figured out some things, and I almost lost my life..."

When he said this, he saw his mother's puzzled expression, and he explained in detail: "If a child is an official in the court, it can be said that the whole world is an enemy. Only by obtaining the Sacred Heart can he be rewarded with nothing. .My child was careless, and almost forgot this fundamental!"

Hearing this, Zhang Pu's mother couldn't help but wiped the corners of her eyes, and said a little worriedly: "But...but just now...what about the person from Dongchang, he said he would report the truth!"

Hearing this, Zhang Pu was slightly taken aback.But soon came back to his senses, his face suddenly became a little ferocious, very ruthless.

His situation made his mother a little surprised, and she dared not speak for a while.

Of course, this son of hers is not a soft-hearted person, she is very clear about this.

Suddenly, Zhang Pu moved. He turned his head and looked around. Then he saw a decorative sword hanging in the corner of the wall. He stepped forward, held it with one hand, and pulled out the sword with the other. There was a "clang", and the cold light was dazzling.

"My son, what are you doing?" Zhang Pu's mother couldn't help being frightened again when she saw it, and said quickly, "You must not, he is from Dongchang, you can't beat him..."

Hearing this, Zhang Pu couldn't help being a little speechless. His mother was actually worried that he couldn't beat him instead of persuading himself...

"Mother, don't worry, the child has made a decision on this matter!" After Zhang Pu comforted him, he immediately carried his sword and strode out, and soon arrived at a yard in the front yard, the resting place for the Dongchang soldiers.

The two guards standing guard at the gate couldn't help being a little surprised when they saw Mr. Zhongcheng coming with a sword in his hand. When they were about to ask questions, they heard Zhang Pu ask first: "Where is the stall?"

"I just came back, I'm inside!" A servant of the East Factory heard this, and immediately replied, staring at the sword, wanting to say something, but saw that Zhang Pu had already stepped in.

In the past, everyone was used to coming and going, not to mention that Zhang Pu was a person protected by Dongchang, and he was an imperial envoy on mission. No one would stop him all the time.

At this time, even when he saw him carrying the sword, the Dongchang fan officer didn't think much about it, he just thought that something had happened, and he was worried that there was an assassin, so he immediately followed him in.

Zhang Pu stepped into the lobby, and saw Jiang Dong buried in writing.

The movement from outside made Jiang Dong raise his head when he heard the sound, and seeing Zhang Pu walking in with a sword in his hand, he couldn't help showing surprise on his face.Holding the brush in his hand, he didn't move for a while: What is Master Zhongcheng doing?Could it be that he wanted to silence what he said just now?

Thinking of this, Jiang Dong himself didn't believe Zhang Pu was followed by several curious Dongchang slaves, but Zhang Pu, a literati, dared to swing his sword at him?Are you crazy?

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Zhang Pu salute Jiang Dong deeply, and then said sincerely: "What you said earlier is like enlightenment. The dispute just now is my fault!"

Hearing this, Jiang Dong couldn't help but feel a little comforted in his heart. After all, after getting along for such a long time, at least he has some feelings, and he can listen to his own persuasion, so he is somewhat successful.However, since he came here to talk about this matter, why is he still holding the unsheathed sword?
After hearing this, the servants behind Zhang Pu realized that it was not an assassin, but that the leader had a dispute with Mr. Zhongcheng, so Mr. Zhongcheng came to admit his mistake?

But why did Mr. Zhong Cheng come here with a sword in his hand to admit his mistake?
Just when everyone couldn't figure it out, they saw Zhang Pu stepping forward, holding a sword in his hand, and arrived at the table where Jiang Dong was sitting.

This time, Jiang Dong was suddenly surprised. What do you mean?
Thinking of this, he immediately stood up and stared at Zhang Pu.As long as he finds something wrong with Zhang Pu, he believes that with his skills, he can definitely deal with Zhang Pu.

Seeing that the situation seemed to be a little off, the Dongchang servants behind Zhang Pu also became nervous and moved closer.

I saw Zhang Pu looked at Jiang Dong with eyes straight, and said again seriously and earnestly: "I have to be reminded by the head before I know that I have done something wrong. I am ashamed of the grace, and I should have died to apologize. Offending people such as calling for payment of owed taxes is not a bragging of this official, and only this official can sincerely handle this errand for the emperor. Therefore, this official decided to record all the favors received and make a book. It will be submitted to the imperial court, and it will be up to the emperor to decide whether this official can still handle this errand."

Hearing this, Jiang Dong couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "That's very good, I believe that since Mr. Zhongcheng has such an understanding, and the emperor's grace is so great, nothing will happen."

In fact, he knew clearly in his heart that Zhang Pu's self-directed and acted things before were kept secret by the emperor, and it depended on how he did it.If it can be done well, then forget the past, if you let the emperor down again, maybe the old and new debts will be settled together.I just don't know, is he knowing this to deal with himself, or is he really repenting?
After hearing this, several Dongchang servants behind Zhang Pu were also relieved, and their emotions also relaxed.It turned out to be like this, but what is Master Zhongcheng doing here with a sword in his hand?
They didn't understand that Jiang Dong was also thinking about the main position, when suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and Zhang Pu swung his sword.

However, he did not hide, because Zhang Pu's sword did not come towards him at all.

I saw that Zhang Pu's left hand had clenched into a fist at some point, leaving only the little finger at the edge of the case, and his right hand was holding a sword, which was cut to his little finger.

It was too late, but it was too late, when Jiang Dong reacted, he saw a piece of little finger was broken on the desk, the sword cut into the desk, blood spurted out, and the corner of the desk was stained red.

Naturally, Zhang Pu would not draw his sword again, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his face was in pain, obviously it was really in pain.He pinched his severed finger with his left hand, resisting the pain, and insisted on saying: "Today, I will testify before you, and I will swear by my severed finger. To be the emperor's eagle claws, and to be the outline of the court!"

At this time, several people in the lobby finally understood that Zhang Pu came over with a sword, so he wanted to swear by cutting off his finger!
At this time, it was too late for them to think too much, Jiang Dong immediately shouted loudly: "Quick, take the wound medicine, stop the bleeding for Mr. Zhongcheng, quick, quick..."

In the lobby, the Dongchang fan servants suddenly became chaotic.Needless to say, only Zhang Pu is still calm.

Fortunately, it was a sword wound, and Dongchang Fan was very skillful in handling it. Looking at Zhang Pu's left hand, which was bandaged, it was blood-red, and looking at the amputated finger on the case table, Jiang Dong immediately thought of the literati in front of him. , In the past, he dared to stab himself because he didn't want to obey the order, but now he came to cut off his finger again. This is more cruel than a martial artist!
"Master Zhongcheng, why bother?" Jiang Dong thought, then smiled bitterly and said, "You and I will tell you the truth, you should be fine!"

At this time, the severed finger area was still very painful.But Zhang Pu couldn't bear it, and forced himself to laugh: "I'm afraid that I will forget it after a long time. Only in this way, I will always remember what I should do and what I shouldn't do!"

This finger has already been broken, and it is useless to say anything more.

So, according to what they said, Jiang Dong reported the situation to the factory owner, and Zhang Pu also reported the situation to Emperor Chongzhen, reporting the truth. Of course, it was necessary to swear by cutting off his fingers to express his determination to repent.

In fact, they did not report this matter. At this time, Emperor Chongzhen had already known the situation through the Class A wiretapping seed on Zhang Pu.
