Chapter 526: Summoned
Mu Jin felt that she couldn't breathe, so Song Yanzhao let her go.
Looking at the person leaning on his chest and gasping softly, the girl's cheeks floated with a touching flush, because of the shortness of breath, the small nose slightly contracted, and the cherry lips were slightly red and swollen because of his wanton love just now, and a touch of satisfaction appeared from the depths of his heart.
Satisfied, Song Yanzhao answered her question just now.
"I've been getting acquainted with the people in the front yard for the past few days, but there are not many old people in the front yard, most of the things I want to ask are from ten or twenty years ago, and there is no useful news for the time being, but there is news from Wei Zong's side. ”
The people they brought were scattered and infiltrated the homes of various important ministers of Jingchangguo as servants, and Wei Zong entered the home of the prime minister of Jingchangguo.
Wei Zong said that the 50,000 Jingchang soldiers displayed outside Cangyuan City this time were not the meaning of the Empress Dowager Mu, but the soldiers sent by the Prime Minister of Jingchang without authorization. ”
Mu Jin looked up in surprise, "He has so much power as a prime minister?"
"Well, about four years ago, when the last emperor of Jingchang got married, the Empress Dowager handed over the military power to Ji Hui, and now two-thirds of Jingchang's troops are in Ji Hui's hands. ”
Ji Hui is the name of the prime minister of Jingchangguo.
Song Yanzhao was also a little surprised when he said it, obviously he didn't expect Ji Hui to have such a big military power in Jingchang Kingdom.
"The remaining one-third of the military power is in the Guchang Houfu?" Mu Jin's face was a little strange, "Why did the Empress Dowager Mu give most of the military power to the prime minister who should be a civil minister?"
"So Qi is here, what is the reason why Empress Dowager Mu did not trust her mother's family, but handed over most of the military power to the prime minister?" Song Yanzhao's hand knocked lightly on the table.
Mu Jin didn't speak, and both of them pondered about it.
This is really a very strange thing, according to the information they received, when Emperor Changchang ascended the throne in four years, Empress Dowager Mu had been in the court for almost 16 years, right?
As a queen mother who listens to the government in the court, can talk about the political theory of the court in an orderly manner, and wins the praise of the people, she definitely has her own skills and the strength behind her.
And the vast majority of this force should come from the Guchang Marquis Mansion.
The Marquis of Guchang is in charge of almost most of the military power of Jingchang Kingdom, has the absolute right to speak among the courtiers, and has the support of her mother's family, so that she can suppress many ministers as a woman and as the queen mother.
But the emperor got married, and the queen still came from the Mu family of the Guchang Marquis Mansion, in this case, the honor and favor of the Guchang Marquis Mansion will only be more prosperous, why was she deprived of nearly two-thirds of the military power?
Is it because the Empress Dowager Mu no longer trusts her mother's family, or is there another reason?
After all, it was in the Guchang Marquis Mansion, and Mu Jin was afraid that the candle flame would arouse the suspicion of others, so only a dim light was left in the house.
In the dim light, the two people hugged each other and whispered, talking about their guesses.
Last time, Song Yanzhao got the evidence of the Southwest Hou's private passage to Jingchang in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which recorded the things that the Southwest Hou had privately supplied to Jingchang over the years.
Ji Hui's record is clear and clear, and the last time the southwest was sent to Lingnan, Song Yanzhao saw him take those people to the palace with his own eyes.
In other words, Empress Dowager Mu should know that those things were sent from the southwest.
But this time it was not the idea of the Empress Dowager Mu, but the idea of Ji Hui alone, what did he want to do?
Do you want to send troops to Yizhou Road, or do you just want to crusade against the southwest?
And in the end, she didn't start the siege, maybe it was the intention of the Empress Dowager Mu, she didn't agree!
Of course, this is just their guess.
In the end, what the attitude of the Empress Dowager Mu was in this matter, they naturally did not know.
"What kind of person is that Ji Hui?" asked Mu Jin curiously.
Song Yanzhao frowned and thought about it, "It's about his early twenties, he looks young, but I heard that he has a deep scheming, oh, it seems that his body is not very good, and his face is pale." ”
Last time, he just glanced at it from a distance, and he didn't see it very really, only in a trance he remembered that it was a handsome, pale young man.
However, in front of his daughter-in-law, the cautious Song Sanye thought that the words handsome could be ignored.
"He became the prime minister of a country at such a young age!What is his origin?" Although Mu Jin had a strong curiosity about this prime minister Ji who had never met before.
Song Yanzhao frowned unhappily and snorted, "I don't know." ”
Uh, I don't know? Mu Jin looked at Song Yanzhao puzzled.
Didn't he check a lot of things before he came? How could he not know the origin of Prime Minister Ji?
Song Yanzhao pouted, "I really don't know, it's strange to say, this Prime Minister Ji's background and net worth are all blank, I have checked, the Ji family is not a famous family in Jingchangguo, how did Ji Hui become the prime minister?"
The news he could find out was that about five years ago, Ji Hui suddenly appeared in the court, and he was quite trusted by the Empress Dowager, that is, the Empress Dowager Mu at that time, and he was promoted to many levels in the second year and became the prime minister.
"I'll find a way to go out and investigate in the past two days, or let Wei Zong and them set up the news, and we'll analyze it. ”
Seeing that the night was getting deeper and deeper, Mu Jin was still looking at himself with a pair of apricot eyes open, Song Yanzhao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, "It's not early, go to sleep." ”
Mu Jin jumped off Song Yanzhao's lap and asked again, "Isn't there any trace of the southwest wait?"
Since the departure of Chengdu Mansion, there has been no trace of Southwest Hou.
Song Yanzhao shook his head, "I can feel it, he must be in Jingchang." ”
"Maybe it's just like us, I don't know where to lurk. Mu Jin guessed casually.
Song Yanzhao rubbed her hair, "Now there are our people in Chongchen's family, as long as he contacts them, our people will definitely find out, you are tired all day, go to sleep." ”
I have to give the needle to Mrs. Mu early tomorrow morning, and I have to apply the needle for three days in a row, which consumes my mind, and Mu Jin is really tired.
Song Yanzhao watched her fall asleep, and then quietly sneaked back to the front yard.
The two-day time passed suddenly, and the five-day needle application time had passed, and Mu Jin was ready to treat Mrs. Mu.
After five days of administered acupuncture, coupled with decoction and dietary conditioning, Mrs. Mu's spirit was much better than before, and she could withstand further treatment.
Mu Jin got up in the morning and began to prepare, because there were a lot of medicinal materials to be used, and there was holly to help, and the master and servant also cleaned up all morning.
took the prepared medicinal herbs and was about to go to Mrs. Mu's courtyard, but Mrs. Guchanghou came.
"The Empress Dowager is here, she wants to meet you. As soon as Mrs. Gu Changhou saw her, she smiled and said.
Because Mu Jin did relieve Mrs. Mu's body a lot, Gu Changhou and his wife were very polite to her.
Mu Jin was stunned, Empress Dowager Mu wants to see her?
