No one knows whether the emperor struggled in his heart that night, and no one knows what he really thought in his heart, anyway, the emperor replied to the suggestion made by the ministers yesterday in the morning of the next day - to temporarily transfer Li Yuan, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, and the Shuji Shi of the Hanlin Academy to Dali Temple to assist in the investigation of the top ten unsolved murder cases of the Yu Kingdom, and then transfer them back to the Hanlin Yuan after the investigation of the case is completed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In this way, the problem of lack of people in Dali Temple is well solved, and the mouth of the old-fashioned school who loves to talk about things in the set of rituals is cleverly plugged.

Guo Mao, the secretary of the military department, changed color after hearing the emperor's decision, but the other ministers were very satisfied with the emperor's decision.

After the next court, Guo Mao, the secretary of the military department, immediately returned to the yamen and told his most powerful subordinate, Liang Gongyuan, about it.

After learning the news, Liang Gongyuan, who had always been calm, was also a little calm, and hurriedly said: "I'm afraid I have to talk to King Ling immediately about this matter, and besides, Zhang Zhaoyi's actions are going to be accelerated." ”

Guo Mao nodded, and immediately sent an urgent secret letter to King Zhao Teng, and sent someone to inform Zhang Zhaoyi and ask her to meet her at the Green Pothos Teahouse outside the palace.

He has now strengthened his vigilance and does not dare to meet Zhang Zhaoyi in the palace to talk about things.

But in this way, Zhang Zhaoyi's behavior is even more obvious, because every time she leaves the palace, she has to report to her father-in-law who specializes in supervising the entry and exit of the harem concubines. For Zhang Zhaoyi, this means that she is one step closer to danger.

But she couldn't help but go, so Zhang Zhaoyi disguised herself as a palace maid at night and quietly left the palace under the cover of Wei Yun, her father-in-law who ordered Wang Zhao Teng to be placed in the palace, and went straight to the Green Pothos Teahouse.

At this time, Guo Mao, dressed as a white-bearded old man, was already waiting for her in a box on the second floor of the teahouse.

After entering the box, Zhang Zhaoyi dared to breathe a sigh of relief.

Guo Mao, the secretary of the military department, stood by the window with his hands in his hands, and only slowly turned his head after hearing the sound of her coming in.

He glanced at Zhang Zhaoyi, and then said: "There are only five months left this year, and the plan to compete for favor can't wait any longer, and we have to start acting immediately." ”

Zhang Zhaoyi sat down on the chair, raised his eyes to meet his gaze and said: "You don't know what kind of person Your Majesty is, it is not easy to attract all his attention, now I am already acting according to the plan step by step, and I am waiting patiently." ”

To compete for favor, you need to conquer his heart first, and this is often the most difficult, Zhang Zhaoyi has been bothering a lot about this plan recently.

Guo Mao smiled slightly and said: "In any era, the weak will feel like they are living in hell, in order to break free from this pain, the only way to make themselves stronger is to do whatever it takes to make themselves stronger, Zhang Zhaoyi, in fact, you and I are in the same situation, we have no choice but to grit our teeth and move forward." ”

Zhang Zhaoyi couldn't help but be stunned for the first time when she heard him say such emotional words, but soon she sneered again and said, "My lord, your situation is still much better than mine, and I have really become a pawn pushed to the forefront by you now, haven't I?" ”

Guo Mao also sneered and said, "Chess pieces? I prefer to define our relationship as a collaboration between two people who share the same position. ”

Zhang Zhaoyi smiled, but with a faint sense of seeing through her smile, she looked at Guo Mao and said meaningfully: "Is the position the same?" I have reservations on this point. ”

Guo Mao sat down directly opposite Zhang Zhaoyi, stared straight at Zhang Zhaoyi and said: "Whether you are willing or not, there is one thing that cannot be changed: we are now in the same boat, and any of us who has an accident will be a devastating blow to the other." Zhang Zhaoyi, you are also a smart person, do you think you have a better choice at this time? ”

These few sentences poked at Zhang Zhaoyi's pain points every sentence, making Zhang Zhaoyi's heart instantly hurt like being pricked by a needle.

The word "no choice" and this kind of situation are probably not what anyone wants to hear or experience.

Guo Mao's words are equivalent to pouring salt in her already painful heart.

However, Zhang Zhaoyi quickly calmed down.

Yes, her current situation can indeed be described as "no choice".

Therefore, whether she is willing to accept it or not, this is her most real situation at this time.

Zhang Zhaoyi stood up and said, "Okay, I know what to do." ”

Guo Mao also stood up with a smile, stretched out his hand and patted her shoulder and said, "Very good, then I will wait for your good news here, if you need my help during this time, just speak out, but the way to convey it must be secret." ”

Zhang Zhaoyi tilted her head slightly, and reluctantly pulled out a smile and said, "Okay." ”

With that, Zhang Zhaoyi immediately left the pothos teahouse quickly.

Guo Mao approached the window and opened the curtains to look out, saw her get on the sedan chair, and saw her sedan chair disappear quickly into the night, so he lowered the curtains, put on the low-brim hat, and strode out of the room.

His subordinate Liang Gongyuan and the other two followed.

Out of the pothos teahouse, they immediately rode away.

Not long after the three of them left, a man in black hiding in a large tree jumped from the tree and walked quickly towards the palace.

Tetsu Miyazawa, who was sleeping, was suddenly told by his subordinates that someone was looking for him, and he hurriedly opened his eyes.

Yuan also woke up, and asked with a panicked face, "Who could it be?" ”

Coming to look for it so late, there must be something very important, so Yuan was very worried.

Miyazawa Zhe didn't tell her that he sent someone to secretly follow Guo Mao, so he smiled and said, "I guess something happened to the yamen, I'll go to the hall and come back." Don't get up, go back to sleep. ”

Where can Yuan still sleep, he also got up with his cloak and sat in the room waiting for him to come back.

The person who came was the person who had just hidden in a big tree and eavesdropped on Guo Mao's conversation with Zhang Zhaoyi, who had recently been instructed by Miyazawa to follow Guo Mao.

When he learned about Guo Mao and Zhang Zhaoyi's private meeting and the content of the conversation between them, the expression on Miyazawa Zhe's face became very serious.

Guo Mao and Zhang Zhaoyi are really a gang, and they are quietly competing for favor.

Then, Zhang Zhaoyi's stay in the harem is already a great disaster.

Also, what is the purpose of doing this?

Does Guo Mao want to be the emperor?

But Guo Mao doesn't have such conditions.

So what is this cooperation for?

The more Miyazawa thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was not trivial, so he went to the East Palace overnight to find the prince.

The crown prince Zhao Yuliang was not very surprised when he heard this, he said in a low voice: "Sure enough, it is a fox that always shows its tail." ”

"Your Highness, since they are designing the competition for favor, then the situation on the queen's side is very dangerous." Tetsu Miyazawa said nervously.

"I know that I will send more people to protect the queen. On your side, those three people are still closely watching Guo Mao's whereabouts. ”

"Yes."
