Empress Dowager Gao, Zhao Xu, Zhao Hao, Meng Yuan and a large group of people returned to Cining Hall from Xuande Gate.

When Empress Dowager Gao, Zhao Xu and the others arrived, they saw Lu Dafang and Han Zhongyan were already waiting.

After this way, Zhao Xu regained his composure slightly, looking at the two of them, his eyes moved slightly.

"Mother."

Lu Dafang and Han Zhongyan greeted him.

Lu Dafang didn't say much after speaking, but Han Zhongyan hesitated, and said to Zhao Xu: "I've seen the official family." ”

Lu Dafang's face was expressionless, and the Empress Dowager Gao didn't seem to notice anything abnormal, under the support of Zhao Xu and Zhou He, her face was still pale, and she said with a smile: "The two Qing families have worked hard, everyone should sit down." ”

Everyone thanked them, and when they waited for Empress Dowager Gao, Zhao Xu sat down, and then settled down in turn.

Zhao Xu was about to do the next one, but was grabbed by the Empress Dowager Gao and sat next to her.

Empress Dowager Gao took Zhao Xu's hand and said with great relief: "The mourning family already knows, and the mourning family is very happy." ”

Zhao Xu didn't know what Empress Dowager Gao was happy for, so he rubbed the corners of his face and said with a wry smile: "Grandmother, your illness almost scared me to death." ”

Empress Dowager Gao smiled, patted Zhao Xu's hand again, and said, "It's okay, I can't make waves." You sent her out of the palace, this method is very good, I didn't expect it before. ”

The reason why Empress Dowager Gao took Concubine Wu Xian first was actually to drag Empress Dowager Xiang and find another way. It's just that she didn't expect her body to hold on, which led to the almost bloody battle in the palace tonight.

Zhao Xu said: "I don't have any other way, I thought of it temporarily." ”

Empress Dowager Gao nodded lightly, not knowing if she thought of something, or because of illness, she looked a little tired.

The group of people below looked at the two ancestors and grandchildren, and most of their eyes were on Zhao Xu.

Although Empress Dowager Gao woke up, the series of methods of this young official tonight were really frightening.

First of all, he used Zhou He's control of the palace military power to stabilize the palace, and then put the three ministers under house arrest so that the court could not act rashly, and then made a decisive and quick decision to send the queen mother out of the palace to become a monk, and even forced Zhao Hao and Meng Yuan to advance and retreat in a few words on the palace wall.

Empress Dowager Gao was silent for a while, her expression became more and more tired, and she suddenly reached out and touched Zhao Xu's body, and said with a smile: "Very good." ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Xu realized that his chest and back were actually wet, and he smiled a little reluctantly.

Empress Dowager Gao was really happy, she already knew from Zhou He's mouth. After she fell into a coma, Zhao Xu has been taking care of her, personally feeding her medicine, wiping her, tonight's change, thanks to Zhao Xu's resistance before and after, otherwise I don't know what will happen.

After thinking for a while, Empress Dowager Gao looked down, and the first one was Zhao Hao, with an expressionless face.

Zhao Hao's face turned pale, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and cried: "Queen Mother, I, and my son know that you are seriously ill, and I will come to see you as soon as possible, and I have no other intentions......"

Zhao Hao had thought about it back then, and Empress Dowager Gao knew it, but she also knew that this son was a coward, and turned to Meng Yuan again.

Meng Yuan got up, raised his hand, and didn't say a word.

Empress Dowager Gao was expressionless, Yu Guang glanced at Lu Dafang, Han Zhongyan and others, and said lightly: "The mourning family knows what you are thinking, so take it all." From tomorrow, King Yan will be in the domain. Meng Yuan was the defense envoy of Meizhou. ”

Zhao Hao suddenly collapsed on the ground, his face like white paper. This is not a feudal domain, it is an exile captivity!

Meng Yuan raised his hand and bowed, and said, "Weichen Xie Empress Dowager for her grace." ”

Meng Yuan's official position was promoted by half a rank, but he was transferred to a local place, and he had no real name. Mingsheng secretly descended, transferred out of Gyeonggi.

This is the punishment of the Empress Dowager Gao for the two, although the Empress Dowager Gao did not say it explicitly, everyone present may be able to guess that Meng Yuan may be passively involved, but this Zhao Hao must be implicated with the Empress Dowager Xiang.

Zhao Xu was also analyzing in his heart, knowing that this grandmother was afraid that she knew more, but she didn't want to ask too much at this time.

Empress Dowager Gao didn't mean to explain, her tone was a little indifferent, and she said, "Let the soldiers outside the palace go back." Then tell the commanders that they will come back after making up the explanation for the mourning family. ”

Meng Yuan was able to lead troops to block the palace gate for so long, and the attitude of the three commanders of the 'Sanya' behind him was worth scrutinizing.

Meng Yuan raised his hand and said, "Yes." With that, he turned and withdrew.

Then the Yellow Gate dragged Zhao Hao away, and Zhao Hao was paralyzed on the ground, shaped like dead wood, speechless.

Empress Dowager Gao took care of the two people, looked at Lu Dafang and Han Zhongyan, and said, "The two ministers, the mourning family and the official family, what do you think?" ”

The royal affairs are the affairs of the world, and the palace has to deal with the Queen Mother and her henchmen, and to end tonight's affairs, the outer court has to be speechless.

Han Zhongyan wanted to speak, but he had to wait for Lu Dafang to speak first.

Lu Dafang swallowed slowly for a long time and said, "The minister has no objection. ”

Han Zhongyan was stunned, and his heart was anxious, how could he have no objections? Not to mention that the official family almost bleed the palace tonight, Su Zhe is still locked up in the middle of the house, and the three divisions will be tried tomorrow!

But Lu Dafang didn't speak, and Han Zhongyan, the privy envoy, didn't dare to come forward, glanced at the Empress Dowager Gao, and then glanced at Zhao Xu, raised his hand and said, "The minister has no objection." ”

Empress Dowager Gao looked at the two of them for a while, and said, "Then send them out of the palace early tomorrow morning, Zhou He, you and the Imperial City Division together." ”

How much meaning is here, including how to settle the Empress Dowager, and even life and death, maybe Zhou He has to think carefully, and he stepped forward quietly.

Empress Dowager Gao woke up, his confidence came again, and he returned to his usual calmness.

After dealing with these messy things, Empress Dowager Gao looked more and more tired, patted Zhao Xu's hand, and said, "The official family is also tired, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Zhao Xu saw that the Empress Dowager Gao couldn't support it, so he got up and said, "Grandmother is good at giving birth, don't be tired." ”

Empress Dowager Gao smiled and nodded, watching Zhao Xu leave.

Zhao Xu glanced at Lu Dafang and Han Zhongyan, and left Cining Hall as usual.

Lu Dafang was indifferent, and he always looked as if he was asleep. However, Han Zhongyan's expression was tense, and he couldn't help but bow slightly.

When Zhao Xu left, Zhou He glanced at Lu Dafang and Han Zhongyan, stepped forward and whispered in the ear of Empress Dowager Gao: "Niangniang, the people of the official family are purging the forbidden army in the palace. ”

Empress Dowager Gao frowned and said, "Where are you?" ”

Zhou He glanced at Lu Dafang and Han Zhongyan again, and said in a low voice: "Before, the official family ordered the blocking of the gates of each palace, plus the transfer of troops to Xuande Gate, now, it is estimated that it is almost the same." ”

Empress Dowager Gao's expression changed slightly, and she looked at the door quietly.

The importance of the forbidden army in the palace is self-evident, but not to mention Zhao Xu's filial piety before, it is Zhao Xu's decisive performance tonight, and she can't forcibly seize the power of the forbidden army again, which is tantamount to tearing her face with Zhao Xu, or even declaring war.

Zhou He saw that Empress Dowager Gao didn't speak, so he didn't say anything more and slowly retreated.

When Han Zhongyan heard it, he was secretly frightened, he originally wanted to talk about Su Zhe, but he didn't dare to mention it at this time.

Empress Dowager Gao is still sick, and she has been barely holding on, and after taking care of these things, she couldn't hold it anymore, so she said, "If there is anything, let's talk about it tomorrow." The two Qing families are also tired, Zhou He, on behalf of the mourning family, sent the two Qing families. ”

Zhou He bowed down and walked towards Lu Dafang and Han Zhongyan.

Lu Dafang was always as immobile as a mountain, no one could guess what he was thinking, and when he heard the words, he raised his hand and retreated, and he was about to turn around.

Han Zhongyan is full of worries, tonight's matter, he always feels that it is not so simple, especially the performance of the official family, which makes him worried.

Zhao Xu walked out of the Cining Hall and went straight back to the Funing Palace.

He was drenched in cold sweat, there was so much going on tonight that he had to comb up.

Before he reached the Funing Palace, Chu You rushed over, dressed in heavy armor, and every step clicked, waved away the servants behind him, approached and Zhao Xu and said: "The official family, it is basically safe, and it will be cleaned up by noon tomorrow!" ”
