Chapter 212
Guo Jia is right, the family's revenge will come soon.
From the next day, all the officials began to write letters, and the memorials to impeach Zhang Yu piled up like a mountain, and they could crush Zhang Yu to death.
"Hehe, this Zhang Yu can really make trouble." In the palace, Zhang Rang said while looking at the pile of memorials.
"Master Zhang, isn't this a good thing? Zhang Yu is one of us, the more we can make troubles, the less pressure we will have." Zhao Zhong said from the side.
Zhang Rang said with a chuckle: "This Zhang Yu is the gun in our hands, let him fight these people, and let's just watch the show."
Although Zhang Rang and others valued Zhang Yu, they regarded Zhang Yu as a tool.
"Master Zhang, what should we do with these memorials? It can be seen that Zhang Yu's incident this time is quite serious."
Zhang Rang thought for a while and said, "Go tell Zhang Yu and let him know how good we are."
This matter was nothing to Zhang Rang, he could easily deal with these memorials, but he didn't, and deliberately let Zhang Yu choose how to deal with it.
Zhang Yu soon received a summons from Zhang Rang.
"I actually want to sue the imperial court." Zhang Yu smiled indifferently when he received the news.
"Then see you early." Zhang Yu made a plan to quarrel with the emperor.
Zhang Rang was a little surprised that Zhang Yu wanted to quarrel with these aristocratic families, but it was what he wanted. The more fierce Zhang Yu's quarrel with the aristocratic families, the better it would be for him.
So Zhang Rang arranged for the morning court the next day.
At night, Zhang Yu sat opposite Guo Jia again in the gazebo.
"My lord, what's the use of arguing with the family to the emperor?" Guo Jia said.
"It doesn't have much effect. There is nothing they can do if Zhang Rang suppresses it. However, I plan to bring the emperor in. We will lose some profits, but we can quickly spread the books to the entire Han Dynasty." Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Yu's heart is relatively big, and he wants to make the book popular among the whole Han Dynasty quickly.
This will inevitably be under a lot of pressure, so the emperor is also brought in, and the pressure will be much less by then.
However, Zhang Yu wanted to sell books at a low price and distribute them to the emperor. At that time, he would hardly make much money, or even lose money.
"My lord is so righteous. This spread of the saint's words to the entire Han Dynasty is really a wonderful achievement through the ages." Guo Jia sighed.
Zhang Yu didn't think too much about it. If he wanted to fight for the world in the future, he would have to fight against these aristocratic families. It's better to start early.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yu made preparations, and then entered the palace for the morning court.
This morning, Zhang Yu made some preparations and pushed several carts into the palace together.
In the same way, Zhang Yu saw the officials who went to the early court together outside the palace.
When Zhang Yu arrived, most people glared.
Zhang Yu raised his head and chest, and walked forward proudly.
"Hi, my lords, how you've been doing recently." Zhang Yu greeted deliberately.
Some officials almost pointed at Zhang Yu and cursed. Many of these officials have been tricked by Zhang Yu in the past few days.
There were also some well-bred officials who just glared at Zhang Yu without expressing anything.
What makes Zhang Yu strange is that those officials usually like to jump out and curse people, but today they were particularly quiet and showed no expression.
It's not their fault, last time there were only two officials who lost their heads by Zhang Yu.
When the time came, they entered the palace together, and when they reached the main hall, the emperor was late as usual.
On the main hall, there was a pile of bamboo slips, everyone was surprised and didn't know what it was.
Zhang Yu and the others waited for almost an hour before the emperor came.
"Hey, Zhang Aiqing, you are here too. When will you come to the palace to drink with me?" Liu Hong said happily when he saw Zhang Yu after arriving at the main hall.
At this time, some officials immediately stood up and criticized the emperor, saying that Liu Hong should not indulge in drinking and sex all day long, and should deal more with the government affairs.
These speakers made Liu Hong very unhappy, but he couldn't do anything to them.
Liu Hong sat on the dragon chair depressedly, and then said: "I heard from my father that the reason for going to court this morning is to complain? What is it? Please tell me quickly."
As soon as Liu Hong finished speaking, an official stood up and said, "I would like to report to Your Majesty that Zhang Yu opened a shop and sold books in the name of fraudulent means to collect money, and his means have aroused public outrage. I implore Your Majesty to make the decision."
Another official came out and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yu used fraudulent means to conduct transactions within a few days, which really harmed Tianwei and should be severely punished. He is a dignified official who conducts transactions and should be severely punished."
"Your Majesty, all the money Zhang Yu defrauded should be returned to the sufferer."
More and more officials stood up to attack Zhang Yu, but Zhang Yu didn't say a word, and stood indifferently in the court hall.
More than a dozen people came out to sue Zhang Yu one after another, and Liu Hong was also annoyed.
"Father, can this happen?" Liu Hong first asked Zhang Rang.
"Your Majesty, there is this matter. The bottom pile is all memorials against Zhang Yu. Today, the old slave brought them all. It's not the whole story. I have to let Zhang Yu talk about it himself and listen to what he has to say." Zhang Rang said.
Liu Hong also had a headache looking at the pile of stacked memorials. He didn't know a few words, so it was annoying to look at.
"Zhang Aiqing, what do you say? What the adults told you is the truth?"
When Liu Hong asked, Zhang Yu saluted first, and then said: "Your Majesty, it is really inappropriate for me to run a business as an official of the Han Dynasty. However, I am too poor and have no choice. I hope your Majesty will forgive me. That's a false accusation, please Your Majesty to decide."
When Liu Hong heard it, Zhang Yu had nothing to do with business, Liu Hong did it himself, but Liu Hong sold officials, while Zhang Yu sold books.
"Well, Zhang Aiqing is honest, poor and self-reliant, and should be rewarded." Liu Hong said something that made the courtier almost vomit blood.
Seeing that the topic was going to be diverted by Zhang Yu, Yuan Kai coughed lightly, and came out and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Yu started business on his own accord, so you don't need to mention it, but Zhang Yu did commit fraud and should be severely punished."
"Yes, it must be severely punished."
"Spit out all the money."
"He should be removed from office."
After Yuan Wei finished speaking, the officials immediately provided support.
But Zhang Yu stood up calmly and said: "Your Majesty, I do business with a clear price tag and a fair deal, but they say I'm a fraud. I didn't force them to buy it."
Liu Hong listened, nodded appreciatively, and then said: "Well, Aiqing has done a good job, and I also clearly mark the price when doing business, and I will not force others."
Zhang Yu secretly laughed, this Liu Hong is really cute, he sells his official position as a commodity, now everyone feels sympathy for Zhang Yu.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Yu is indeed fraudulent. First, he claimed that the book will be open for three days, but he didn't have a thousand bucks. After three days, he directly cut the price, and sold it for a hundred bucks. I don't know how many people have been deceived. Money." An official came out and said bitterly.
Liu Hong was taken aback for a moment, and asked very puzzled: "Zhang Aiqing, I don't understand. The one thousand bucks sold well, so why lower the price?"
