Chapter 52: Taste the Taste

Your Majesty will inspect all departments of the court tomorrow?

As Zhao Xu intentionally spread, the news quickly spread throughout Kaifeng Prefecture, and many people showed joy. His Majesty is not something that anyone can see!

But more people thought for a moment, their expressions changed drastically and they were in full horror!

First, he used the "ritual of an unmanned minister" to suppress Su Che, who was envoy of the three corpses, and then used "incontinence" to force the Privy Councilor Han Zhongyan to retreat. At noon, the prime minister Lu Dafang "was not obeying things"!

Tomorrow, the officials will inspect the various departments of the court. What does this mean?

Smart people can think of a lot by thinking a little more!

Once the emperor and the ministers are there, is the officials trying to select new imperial ministers?

A group of court officials who had just gotten off work and were still making fun of each other, couldn't sit there. They all struggled out of the tile tile and soft jade, running around Kaifeng, wanting to find out some inside information.

Among those who can best replace the three husbands, some can maintain a calm appearance, while many can't stand it. Some even directly climbed to the door of Lu Dafang, Su Song and Su Che, trying to ask them to recommend it.

Zhao Xu's action made the entire Kaifeng City mess up.

Su Che and Su Song were about to go to bed, but now they hurriedly put on their clothes and rushed to Lu Dafang's mansion.

Lu Dafang was also uneasy and was facing his son's questioning.

His third son, Lu Hongyou, stood in front of the desk, raised his hand respectfully and said, "Father, I keep your teachings in mind and dare not ask about your political affairs, but as a son, how can I ignore my father's safety? Today, I would like to ask, please tell me, with the heart of the Security Palace."

Lu Dafang looked at the third son without hesitation and said, "You are not bad. I will tell you two things: First, I will not retire. Second, yesterday the Empress Dowager sent me a message: The official family is anxious."

Although Lu Hongyou passed the imperial examination, he did not enter the officialdom, but focused on studying science and writing books and teachings.

Listening to his father's words, Lu Hongyou raised his hand and bowed, saying, "I understand, thank you father."

Lu Dafang was indeed very satisfied with this third son. He watched him leave and said to the outsider: "I thank the guests in close contact."

The butler outside the door immediately responded and said, "Yes."

Not long after the Lu Mansion closed the door and thanked the guests, a large group of people came to the front door and knocked on the door, but they were all blocked.

Ersu said he was dry at the door, but he was almost smashing the door. Finally, he cursed a few times in anger, turned around and headed straight for the palace.

What surprised them was that Cining Palace once again blocked the two Su Xiang outside on the grounds that "the Empress Dowager has gone to bed and will talk about it tomorrow."

Su Che and Su Song stood in front of the gate of Cining Hall, looking at the closed gate, the two of them had a calm face and frowned, both anxious and puzzled.

Before, Lu Dafang was calm, but he could barely accept it if he didn't respond. The officials were going to inspect the three provinces and six ministries. How could he be so calm?

Su Song looked at Su Che and pondered: "Have you noticed that this matter has developed somewhat unexpectedly?"

Su Che was anxious and said directly: "What did you think of?"

Su Song is not as good as Su Che. He has just served as Privy Councilor and has not been fully integrated yet. He can temporarily watch coldly. He thought, "The Prime Minister's reaction is a bit special. In addition, the official's actions seem to be meaningful. The Queen Mother and the Prime Minister are too quiet, unlike them. The official can also go directly to the three provinces and six ministries tomorrow to inspect. Why should we release the wind in advance?"

Su Che has been in the officialdom for many years, and soon tasted some flavor from Su Song's words, but he still said in confusion: "The Empress Dowager and the Prime Minister are not moving, but the officials are constantly moving, which is indeed unreasonable. Logically speaking, even if the officials want to take charge of the government, they should slowly take action. If he is so anxious, it will cause rebounds in all aspects and it will not be worth the loss..."

After Emperor Shenzong, Empress Dowager Gao had been in power behind the curtain for seven years. Everyone was already accustomed to the current model. Anyone who wanted to break it had to face a strong rebound.

Even if that person is an emperor and has a special status, he cannot force himself!

Su Song couldn't figure it out, so he sighed, looked at the direction of Funing Palace, and said, "We have underestimated this official family before. If we haven't made a sound for three years, we will make a big splash..."

Su Che frowned. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't like Zhao Xu. Judging from the recent series of things, this is not what a benevolent monarch should do.

"Let's go." Su Song turned around and walked out of the palace.

Su Zhe was stunned and said, "Just leave like this?"

Su Song said as he walked, "What else can it be done? It's obviously a fight between gods, let's take a look."

Su Che really wanted to do something, but he couldn't think of what he could do. He could only leave with Su Song with his nervous heart.

Kaifeng City became even more lively, and Su Song, Su Che and others did not escape. I don’t know how many people came to find out about the news.

At this time, Zhao Xu did not sleep. He sat in the bedroom, shaking his fan, looking at the sky outside, and murmured to himself: "The weather is getting hotter and hotter."

Chenpi stood behind him, with a hint of cold sweat on his head, but it was not hot.

It’s less than May, and it’s the nighttime bedroom again, so it won’t be hot, because it’s nervous!

He was nervous and anxious than Zhao Xu, and he didn't know how the Empress Dowager of Cining Palace would react!

The official's hand is about to reach the court. Can the Empress Dowager still sit and watch? People who don't understand outside think that the official family needs to change their husbands and promote new people, and the emperor and the ministers are the same. But Chen Pi knows very well that the official family in front of him cannot do this. The so-called "inspection of the three provinces and six ministries" is just a sound of rumors, but in fact it may not be able to do it!

This is a test!

Chen Pi looked at Zhao Xu in front of her and quietly wiped the cold sweat from her head, thinking in her heart.

Zhao Xu especially likes to fan the fan and thinks it is so cool. He doesn't know what Chen Pi is thinking, and he is still analyzing the current situation and the reaction methods that Empress Dowager Gao, Lu Dafang and others may take.

Thinking of this, it was dawn before I knew it.

Chenpi was sleepless. She looked at the sky outside, stepped forward, and whispered: "Official family, go and have someone prepare you for washing up, and ask for information."

Zhao Xu didn't know if he stayed up late or hadn't moved for too long, and there was no expression on his face, and said, "Just wash up, don't find anything, don't have any extra movements. By the way, call Chu You."

Tangerine tightened her face and said with a stern look: "Yes."

Chenpi left the bedroom and ordered someone to arrange it. He walked around Funing Palace, but seemed to feel the abnormality of the entire palace.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but there was a breath that made him panic, and the atmosphere was as depressing as the eve of the storm.

Chenpi took a deep breath and did not dare to do anything extra, so she ordered someone to find Chu You.

In a cup of tea, Chu You was wearing black armor and looked solemn, and was much more steady and solemn than before. He came to Zhao Xu, knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice: "I am the gentle minister Chu You, see Your Majesty!"

Zhao Xu was stunned when he saw him performing such a big tribute and said, "What's wrong?"

As one of Zhao Xu's few close ministers, Chu You could naturally feel the tension in the palace, and even a trace of solemn atmosphere, and said without raising his head: "I will obey Your Majesty's will, and the palace will be as usual."

Zhao Xu raised his eyebrows and understood. He reached out and helped him up, and said with a smile: "It's not that serious. Tell others that you must be vigilant, but you don't have to be too nervous."

Chu You responded, stood up, and looked at Zhao Xu, still looking at him with a solemn look before the war came.

Zhao Xu was not nervous at first, but when he was Chenpi, Chu You got a little nervous. He rubbed his face and said, "It's not that serious. No matter what, I am also the emperor. My grandmother and the prime minister are all people who abide by the ancestral system, and they can't reach that level."

The truth is the truth. If everyone works according to the truth, how could there be so many swords and shadows? How could there be blood in the history books?

Chu You's expression remained motionless.
