Chapter 8 Cuju

Zhao Xu pondered silently. Gao Gongji had a special identity and could not move lightly without evidence. Moreover, everything should have motivation. Why did Gao Gongji take action to harm him? Who instructed him?

If Empress Dowager Gao seemed to have no need to leave such a big flaw, and she would have to take action in broad daylight. Once it was verified, the consequences would be unimaginable!

The sudden appearance of Gao Gongji made Zhao Xu's thoughts a little confused, but there were clues in the end.

He thought about it and said, "Look at him and find some time. I want to see him, outside the palace. You continue to investigate and to be more hidden, you must have a definite evidence, do you understand?"

Chenpi also knew that the matter was important and said, "Don't worry, the official family, the villain knows. The villain asked someone to stare at the Gao Mansion, and there was a suitable time to let the official meet."

Zhao Xu nodded slightly. Thinking that this matter involved Gao Gongji, it would definitely be very troublesome in the future. He thought about it again and again and said, "We must also hurry up and check the court's husbands and be more cautious!"

If Gao Gongji really gets involved in the assassination of him, he has to rely on the power of the court. After all, he has no real power and cannot actually deal with anyone, and he cannot even protect himself.

Chenpi knew the importance of the matter and said in a stern manner: "Yes, the villain understands!"

Zhao Xu sat back, analyzed the matter in his heart, and said, "Go, follow the connection and message transmission method I taught you, be careful and concealed, and don't be noticed that you are too moving and causing suspicion."

Chenpi responded, and was about to speak, his ears moved and said, "The official family is coming down from the Eleventh Palace."

Zhao Xu was stunned, listened carefully, but heard nothing, and said curiously: "How did you know?"

Chenpi touched her head and said, "The little one likes to listen to people's footsteps. This is the footsteps of His Eleventh Prince. The little one can hear it."

Zhao Xu found it interesting and looked out the door. Not long after, Zhao Ji appeared outside the door and poked out half of his head and glanced inside.

A yellow gate came in and said, "Official family, Your Highness the Eleventh Highness is asking for a visit."

When Zhao Xu saw Zhao Ji’s head small, he sneered and said, “Let him go and play first.”

The yellow gate responded, Zhao Ji, outside the gate, blinked, looked inside, and then turned around and walked out of the hall.

When Zhao Xu saw Zhao Ji leaving, his smile flashed with a terrifying smile and said to Chen Pi: "Go, don't be reluctant to spend money. If it is not enough, let's see what is valuable in the palace and take it out for pawning. If I don't sell it a little, the palace will be stolen by Zhao Ji's bastard."

Chenpi responded quickly and said, "Yes. The villain took his leave."

He felt more and more that the government wanted to do big things. Not only did he not panic, but he was vaguely excited.

Zhao Xu was flirting with the book casually, still making judgments in his heart.

Gao Gongji's sudden appearance pointed the finger at Empress Dowager Gao, but there was a paradox inside that made it impossible.

Zhao Xu slowly flipped through the book, thinking in an orderly and calmly.

"There are rumors to protect me. Even if Gao Gongji is, the Cining Palace will not dare to touch me for the time being. We can meet and see clearly. Only by knowing who the enemy is can we drug it..." Zhao Xu said to himself.

After understanding it, Zhao Xu turned out the window and saw Zhao Ji and Chu You and others in Cuju, sweating profusely and passionately.

"After all, some children are playing, and I forget to be afraid..."

Zhao Xu hummed twice, and did not rush to settle the score with him, and continued reading.

Empress Dowager Gao was investigating who was conspiring to murder Zhao Xu and who was spreading rumors. She was naturally very concerned about Zhao Xu, and every move was reported to Empress Dowager Gao by Zhou He.

When Empress Dowager Gao heard that Zhao Ji was with Chu You and a group of guards in Funing Hall, she didn't care and waved her hand to signal Zhou He to retreat. She was the actual ruler of the Song Dynasty. Now the Song Dynasty is ventilated and leaks from all directions, and there are too many things that she needs to worry about.

...

On this day, Zhao Xu did not rush to deal with Zhao Ji. He had a chance to deal with this little bastard. His target was Chu You and others and a group of imperial guards.

On the first day, Zhao Ji let him play Cuju, and he was very happy. On the second day, Zhao Ji became a little calmer. After seeing Zhao Xu, he directly asked Chu You and others to Cuju without any scruples.

The Song Dynasty had a variety of ways to play Cuju, with a group of people playing in groups and a group competition. Zhao Ji was so happy that he played in Funing Palace and was so happy.

Zhao Xu sat in the study and could see the front of the hall at a glance, but he didn't move, just occasionally looking at it and immersing himself in the book.

There are many books in his study, which describes the current situation of the Song Dynasty, and records many problems in detail, and the context of some things is very clear. Although many things are subjectively biased due to political stance, Zhao Xu still sees a lot of things and has a lot of ideas.

Zhao Xu was reading in Funing Palace, and Chenpi was also busy inside and outside the palace.

I can't find out who is the real murderer of the assassination, and no one in the palace can be safe.

By the third day, Zhao Ji was already very calm and was playing with Chu You and others in a lively manner, and the shouts echoed in front of Funing Hall.

Zhao Xu was so quarreled that he couldn't read a book. He walked under the eaves and watched a group of people chasing the ball back and forth.

Zhao Ji just glanced at Zhao Xu and continued to kick.

He was young and tired of playing, and he didn't have much sensitivity unless it happened to him.

However, when Chu You saw Zhao Xu, he looked a little uneasy and made repeated mistakes, which made Zhao Ji very dissatisfied and muttered a few words and stopped.

Zhao Ji sat on the ground and gasped for a while. Chu You hesitated for a while and came to Zhao Xu.

"The villain has seen the official family." Chu You politely said.

Zhao Xu looked at Zhao Ji's little bastard and said casually: "I'm just a little bored when you play with you."

Chu You stood up and looked at Zhao Xu, wanting to speak but stopping.

Zhao Xu was stunned and looked at him and said, "What's wrong? Just say something."

Chu You looked behind him, and hesitated. After a moment, he said with a deep look: "That day, the villain saw that the person following the official family came out of Cining Hall."

Zhao Xu's face changed suddenly, he stared at Chu You with a sharp look, and said calmly: "You should know the consequences of your words."

Chu You lowered his head and said, "The villain knew that the official family was suspicious of the villain and others, but the villain was loyal to the official family and never participated in this great rebellious matter! That day, he happened to pass by and looked at the official family."

Zhao Xu's eyes flashed, and his heart surged violently.

Cining Hall is the place of Empress Dowager Gao. If the eunuch from Cining Hall led him to the abandoned well that day and pushed him into the well to kill him, then this matter would be full of indescribable weirdness.

Will Empress Dowager Gao use such low-level means to harm him? He was seen in broad daylight? And why did Gao Gongji enter the palace? Are you afraid that others will not suspect her?

Zhao Xu frowned and looked at Chu You with cold eyes.

He went to find Zhao Ji for a temporary purpose. No one would have expected that he would bring Chu You and others back, so it was impossible for him to arrange Chu You in advance.

‘Empress Gao? Will it be?’
