Chapter 1177 Counterattack

But with his current position, he has no way to enter the palace, so he can only ask Mr. Huo for help.

Seeing Chu Heng approaching, Huo Zhengming led him into the study.

"Ah Heng, sit down."

"I know what you are here for today. The emperor called the ministers to come out of the palace early. Now I'm afraid that the key has been locked, and no one can get in now." Huo Zhengming looked serious: "You Do you know the reason why your wife was called into the palace by the emperor this time?"

Chu Heng didn't make a sound, dipped his finger in the tea, and wrote the word 'Zheng'.

Huo Zhengming's expression was condensed: "How come, you are just a small official now, how could you be attracted by him."

"Speaking of it, it's an old story." Tang Rou escaped back then, it's not that Chu Heng didn't find someone to look for, but the other party escaped.

"But..." Huo Zhengming was puzzled: "If it is said that Tang Meiren has enmity with you, so she targeted Madam, why would Zheng Guogong listen to her?"

"Could it be!" Huo Zhengming's expression was shocked: "It's for me."

This time his tone was affirmative.

He thought about what happened in the princess's mansion last time, and Huo Zhengming's face became more serious: "Ah Heng, what do you think?"

Chu Heng came to him and wanted to use this to enter the palace. There must be a way, and he must not rush in.

Chu Heng: "The servant of the household department, the Song family, is greedy for ink and disaster relief money. In his hometown of Longzhou, he bought more than 10,000 mu of land, and it was **** in the name of his niece and son-in-law."

He took out a stack of paperwork from his chest and handed it to Huo Zhengming.

Huo Zhengming turned pale with shock, and quickly reached out to pick it up to look at it. When he saw that the evidence inside was convincing, he couldn't help asking: "Where did these evidences come from?"

"Send someone to intercept the people who came from the Song family's hometown."

"Then you have been discovered. Even if this thing is sent to the emperor, and the official position of Minister of the Household Department is taken away, Zheng Guogong may not be able to find another person to replace him."

"At that time, you will still be targeted by Zheng Guogong. It is too easy for him to deal with you."

"Moreover, a servant can't weaken Zheng Guogong's power. After all, Chen Tianmin, Minister of the Household Department, is in his prime."

"No, this is slowly pulling out Zheng Guogong's contacts." Chu Heng shook his head slightly, his voice calm: "Although he is just a servant, he is the person who is the easiest to sit in the position of minister."

"Zheng Guogong is also surrounded by wolves now. If he makes a mistake, the Qi family may not take a bite, let alone the emperor. Will the emperor watch Zheng Guogong arrange people to enter that position again?"

"What's more, since I'm going to take action against the household department, I don't plan to let Zheng Guogong's people get involved again."

"When the Minister of the Household Department was dismissed, Zheng Guogong lost the arm of the Household Department. Now the Minister of the Household Department, Mr. Chen, is the emperor's man, and Zheng Guogong can't win over."

Chu Heng: "I'm just a fifth-rank official. Is Zheng Guogong here to embarrass me, or to fight with the Qi family?"

"However, it's still very dangerous for you to behave like this." Huo Zhengming sighed softly: "Although the Qi family will deliberately want to befriend you and involve Zheng Guogong because of this, but if Zheng Guogong wants to do something, I'm afraid he will investigate everything you have done in the past. As long as he is found a chance, he will put you to death."

"Even if I want to protect you, I can't do it."

Chu Heng's expression did not change at all: "My lord, you forgot that I am the emperor's man."

"You really decided to do this?" Huo Zhengming asked with a sigh.

"My lord, Zheng Guogong has already attacked me. Unless I become his man, he will not let me go." From the moment Tang Rou appeared, it was doomed that he and Zheng Guogong would never end.
