Zhou Yu'an closed the door, and only Emperor Hui Chong and Yuan Zhongdao were left in the entire hall. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Your Majesty!"

Yuan Zhongdao glanced up at Emperor Hui Chong, thinking of the friendship between monarchs and ministers in the past, and felt a little old and tearful.

He leaned over respectfully and made a firm salute.

I think that when Yuan Zhongdao left Beijing, Emperor Hui Chong had just arrived and was in high spirits, but now the years are in a hurry, he is old, and Yuan Zhongdao in front of him is also old.

Looking at Yuan Zhongdao, who had a gray beard in front of him, Emperor Hui Chong also had a sense of illusion that time had flown by and would never come again.

"Aiqing get up quickly, don't be polite!"

Emperor Hui Chong waved his sleeves out and beckoned Yuan Zhong to get up.

Yuan Zhongdao was grateful for a while, and then got up.

The two monarchs and ministers were not unfamiliar, and after meeting and greeting for a while, they went directly to the side hall and played against each other.

While playing against each other, they are talking.

Of course, it was mainly Emperor Hui Chong who was talking, and Yuan Zhongdao listened.

What he said is nothing more than the situation in the court, the current situation, and ...... The position of the Prince.

"The prince's qualifications were mediocre in previous years, but it seems to be quite useful, but in recent years, his actions have become more and more undisciplined, I watched from the sidelines, and became more and more disappointed, if this country is handed over to him in the future, how can I rest assured!"

In front of Yuan Zhongdao, who did not admire officialdom and was dedicated to Taoism, Emperor Hui Chong seemed to have no scruples, and expressed all the dissatisfaction and worries about the prince in his heart.

The crown prince disappointed Emperor Hui Chong?

Listening to Emperor Hui Chong's words, Yuan Zhongdao didn't react on his face, but sighed in his heart.

Emperor Hui Chong's treatment of Prince Xuande was clear to discerning people in the court in the past.

Although Yuan Zhongdao is not in the court, he is also well aware of this matter.

The crown prince, who has always been very loved, why did Emperor Hui Chong suddenly look unpleasant?

It is obviously affected by the case of Zhou Liangfu selling his official position......

Who is making trouble, and is it Zhou Liangfu's fault alone...... Emperor Hui Chong probably knows better than anyone else in his heart.

Under such circumstances, Emperor Hui Chong only imprisoned Zhou Liangfu alone, and did not blame the prince on the surface.

Even at the moment, although he said that he was very disappointed in the prince, behind this disappointment, it was not a fist.

It's a good intention!

Emperor Hui Chong's attitude can be seen.

Zhou Liangfu's pot is decided, and if he wants to suppress the anger of the officials and the people, I am afraid that Emperor Hui Chong will punish him extraordinarily.

It seems that he made the right choice before!

Yuan Zhongdao's mind turned a few times, his face changed slightly, he also put down the chess pieces in his hand, and looked up at Emperor Hui Chong, his eyes were full of gentleness.

"Your Highness is simple-minded, and it is inevitable that there will be inappropriateness in your actions, but if the jade is not cut, your Majesty is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it will be taught slowly in the future...... However, Lao Chen has opened the academy for many years, to put it mildly, this cultivation of talents must be proficient in much more, cultivating people is like cultivating seedlings, just let him grow under the eaves, not blowing wind and rain, it is not enough, when it is time to let go, you still have to defend more, more experience, in the future, you can be on your own......"

Emperor Hui Chong had considerable trust and respect for Yuan Zhongdao.

Therefore, when Yuan Zhongdao spoke, Emperor Hui Chong not only felt angry, but thought about it.

……

Approaching evening, when the sky was groggy and the entire Jingshi was shrouded in golden afterglow, Yuan Zhongdao finally returned to the Lu Mansion.

The expression is relaxed, the steps are light, and there is nothing unusual in the look.

However, Lu Shuo, who came to greet him, saw a trace of worry in his face.

"Grandfather, what happened in the palace, what happened to you?"

After sending off Yuan's Lu Fang and the others, and when only their grandparents and grandchildren were left in the front yard of Zhiyuan, Lu Shuo finally stepped forward and asked.

"Hoo ......"

Yuan Zhongdao took a big sip of tea, and then exhaled a long breath.

"I am afraid that the path of asking the saint to be gracious will not work......

"This ......"

As soon as he heard Yuan Zhongdao say this, Lu Shuo immediately became anxious.

Emperor Hui Chong can't get through there?

Could it be that Emperor Hui Chong is ruthless in rectifying the Zhou family?

"I don't need to say more! I have to meet this Lu Shixin, I came to Beijing this time, no matter what, I have to protect Zhou Mao......"

Lu Shixin?

Listening to Yuan Zhongdao's assurance, Lu Shuo's worries in his heart did not let go.

He asked: "Listening to what you just meant, it seems that the Holy Lord has already judged this, and it is only a matter of time before the Zhou family is finished, what can you do if you are looking for Lord Lu?" Don't forget...... Lord Lu has just gotten rid of suspicion, not to mention whether he is willing to help or not, there is a holy attitude pressing there, I am afraid that it will be ......"

I'm afraid it won't help at all!

"Hehe......"

Yuan Zhongdao smiled and shook his head.

"You think too much, although the saint said with the meaning of favoritism for Prince Xuande, he never clearly said what the treatment of the Zhou family would be...... Whether this matter is the head of the Zhou family or not, the saint knows better than anyone else, and the reason why I am worried is also that the saint is worried about the depth of the saint's partiality towards Prince Xuande, which has nothing to do with Zhou Mao......"

It turned out to be because of this!

Lu Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "It's not a few days before the release of the list, if you continue to delay, I'm afraid it's too late to do anything! President Lu, when do you plan to go?"

"Tomorrow!"

Yuan Zhongdao picked up the teacup.

"This matter is sooner rather than later, and the sooner it is stabilized, my heart can be settled as soon as possible!"

Early the next morning, Yuan Zhongdao really went to Lu Shixin's house.

Skimming out all the people who came to visit him, he went generously.

It was the same situation as yesterday, and when it was evening, Yuan Zhongdao finally returned home.

When Lu Shuo went to see him again this time, he saw that the Sichuan character at the center of his eyebrows was finally gone, and his face was also relaxed and indifferent.

Even in the end, Yuan Zhongdao sighed and said: "People say that Lu Shixin is loyal and cherishes talents, I used to think that it was difficult to be famous, but today it seems that it is my villain's heart...... Lu Shixin, you definitely deserve these words!"

There are really not many people who can praise Yuan Zhongdao so much!

It is conceivable that his meeting with Lu Shixin this time was also very smooth.

Lu Shuo's heart that he had been carrying was finally let go.

It's good that things go well!

In this way, Zhou Mao can be less affected.

Good things come in pairs, and I learned the news from Yuan Zhongdao here, and the person who went to Yangzhou to deliver the letter finally came back.

The people of the Zhou family already knew what happened in the Jingshi Zhou Mansion, and after reading Zhou Mao's letter, although there were some objections and threatened to do their best to protect Zhou Liangfu, most people had reservations about this, and felt that the future of the entire family was more important than a secretary of the book!

The plan was set up over there, and they were ready to choose a good day and an auspicious day to expel Zhou Liangfu, a person with bad conduct, and leave the clan completely.

In this way, although the Zhou family will be criticized, and Zhou Liangfu's life is not guaranteed, but fortunately, the whole family is saved.
