55, palace night talk

"Your Majesty, Duan Shenzhu and Hua Taishi are already waiting outside the door." Gonggong Guo gently pushed open the door, looked at Emperor Hui who was sitting behind the desk in a daze, and said softly.

"Oh~" Emperor Hui came back to his senses and asked, "How is Concubine Hua's situation?" ”

"The prince has arrived at Baohua Palace, and the servants have also sent the royal envoy over, so it's no big deal!" Guo Gonggong said in a low voice.

"Hmm!" Emperor Hui cleared his throat and said lightly, "Xuanduan Shenzhu and Master Hua will meet you." ”

Gonggong Guo retreated obediently, and after a while, he led Duan Tianya and Hua Yueshan in.

"Weichen participates in the emperor!" As soon as Duan Tianya and Hua Yueshan entered the imperial study, they immediately knelt down and said loudly.

"The two Aiqing don't have to be polite!" Emperor Hui raised his hand lightly and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Duan Tianya and Hua Yueshan glanced at each other, said in unison, and stood up.

"Master Hua blocked a stick for me, is it better now?" Emperor Hui looked at Hua Yueshan's hand still hanging from his neck, and couldn't help but ask with concern.

Hua Yueshan bowed slightly and said, "The old minister's injury is not in the way, so the emperor is so worried, the old minister is very frightened. ”

Emperor Hui nodded and said, "Today, I am looking for two Aiqing to enter the palace, mainly for the fifteenth day of the first lunar month!" ”

Emperor Hui stood up and said to Duan Tianya with a solemn expression: "Duan Shenzhuo, I am now handing over the dark department to you, has there been any progress recently?" ”

Duan Tianya took a step forward and arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty!" Weichen has issued an official document on sea capture, and the rest of the Zodiac House has been arrested nationwide, and it has been a great success. ”

After speaking, Duan Tianya took out a book from his sleeve, handed it to Guo Gonggong and said: "More than 1,000 thieves of all sizes have been captured, but no trace of the zodiac killer has been found!" ”

Gonggong Guo presented the fold to Emperor Hui, Emperor Hui took it, glanced at it a few times, pressed it on the desk, and said: "This matter is very good, cut off their foundation, even if some fish slip through the net, they won't be able to make any big waves in the future!" ”

Emperor Hui thought for a moment and continued: "But this matter is still careless, and it must be investigated to prevent them from recurring!" But now the focus of your secret department is to investigate the rebels, and to find out whether Wenxing is related to the rebels, the evidence must be conclusive, and no torture must be used to extract confessions! ”

Duan Tianya said helplessly with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, in this way, I'm afraid that there will not be enough manpower in the dark department!" ”

Emperor Hui's face sank and said, "If you don't have enough manpower, you can figure out a way!" I just want the result! ”

Duan Tianya retreated with a bitter face.

Hua Yueshan hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The emperor doesn't have to be anxious, there are still 300 families in the old minister's mansion, and they are all a little skilled in martial arts, although they are not very useful, but the things that are waving the flag and shouting can still be done, if the Duan God catcher is short of manpower, you can use it first." ”

Emperor Hui nodded and said, "The old lady is really dedicated to the country, and I am very relieved!" The two of you can discuss this matter for yourselves! ”

Duan Shenzhu clasped his fists at Hua Yueshan and said, "Thank you, Taishi." ”

Hua Yueshan waved his hand and said, "With a gesture, Duan Shenyu doesn't have to take it to heart!" If there is anything useful to Hua, just open your mouth! ”

Hua Yueshan pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the Luoyang branch has found the traces of the nurse in Wenfu, and has come to the secret letter to ask us how to deal with it. ”

Emperor Hui frowned, tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times, and whispered, "Oh? Wenfu nurse actually appeared in Luoyang again? ”

Emperor Hui pondered for a long time and said, "Whether it's true or not, let's control people first!" ”

Duan Tianya scratched his head and said, "It's just that Weichen is indeed lacking in skills." ”

Emperor Hui nodded and said, "I've really worked hard for you recently, and when these things are over, I will definitely celebrate you!" ”

Duan Tianya hurriedly knelt on the ground and said in a solemn voice: "Weichen doesn't dare, but today I see that the Taishi is a heart for the country and the people, and I don't know if the Taishi can share some of the burden for Duan." ”

Emperor Hui frowned and looked at Hua Yueshan and said, "Hua Taishi's arm is not very convenient, maybe it can't, right?" ”

"The emperor is too worried! Weichen is not talking about Hua Taishi, Weichen is talking about Hua Taishi's grandson Hua Ying. Duan Tianya saw that Emperor Hui had misunderstood, and hurriedly said.

"Hua Ying? Didn't he go out to learn art? Is it already back? Emperor Hui showed a thoughtful look on his face, turned his head to look at Master Hua, and asked.

"I just came back yesterday, and the old minister didn't have time to say it, I don't want Duan Shenzhu to already know!" Hua Yueshan hurriedly bowed down and said.

"Haha! Good! Emperor Hui laughed and said, "You are all my ministers of the humerus, and now I am very happy to see that there is a successor to Master Hua!" ”

"Your Majesty, Xiao Sun has been living outside, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be a big responsibility!" Hua Yueshan hurriedly waved his hand and excused himself.

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing, let Lingsun come over and show me now!" Emperor Hui waved his hand and said with a smile: "You don't avoid relatives in the inner move!" Taishi doesn't need to be too polite. ”

"Xiao Guozi, pass on my will, Huaying, the grandson of Xuanhua Taishi, quickly come to meet you!" Emperor Hui turned to Gonggong Guo and said.

Seeing that Emperor Hui had already passed on the message, Hua Taishi could only sigh helplessly, stepped aside, and looked at Duan Tianya with blaming eyes.
