Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Moment of Waiting

As a result, Qin Bing and other officials of more than 20 people in the political hall were escorted by the guards, and they all knelt in front of the vertical arch hall.

A few people wanted to talk to Qin Bing and ask about the situation, but they were all glared back silently by Qin Bing.

He is now afraid that Zhao Xu will not find an excuse to continue to attack them, why is he still in a hurry to send the handle?

The kneeling is honest and meticulous.

Zhao Xu had been looking at the notebook in the Cining Palace, forgetting the time, until Chen Pi came in, he looked up, and his expression was still a little dazed.

Chen Pi walked over and said, "Official, the will has passed. Lu Xiang announced that he was on leave, and Qin Bing led people to kneel in front of the vertical arch hall. In addition, that Liu Shi'an is said to be in the Lu Mansion, and the Imperial City Division does not dare to ask for someone. ”

Zhao Xu tilted his head, sobered up a little, and said, "You mean, Liu Shi'an hid in the Lu Mansion?" ”

Chen Pi said: "Yes." ”

Zhao Xu was thoughtful, what is Liu Shi'an doing hiding in Lu Mansion? Also, Empress Dowager Gao will wake up soon, shouldn't Lu Dafang be here and wait?

"Regarding Su Zhe, what is the reaction of the government and the opposition?" Zhao Xu thought about it.

Chen Pi took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Official, the villain also feels strange. There was no script, and there were very few voices outside the palace. ”

Zhao Xu's brows furrowed, and things became more and more weird.

Are you brewing how to save Su Zhe?

Just thinking about it, a yellow door came in quickly, not far from the door, and said, "Qiqi official's house, Liang Shangshu asks to see." ”

Zhao Xu poured a cup of tea and said, "Pass." ”

The yellow door at the door answered, and he turned around and went out.

Liang Tao hurriedly came in, looking nervous and restrained, and after raising his hand to salute, he said, "The official, the minister is incompetent." ”

Zhao Xu took a sip of tea, looked at him and said, "Say it slowly." ”

Liang Tao moved the corners of his mouth, still raised his hand, and said hesitantly: "Official, the matter of raising grain and grass, the minister has searched all over the departments, all the scholars, the minister, either push or avoid, within five days, the minister will raise less than one million." ”

Zhao Xu picked up the teacup with an expressionless face.

Liang Tao suddenly felt a chill in his back, knelt on the ground with a puff, and said, "The minister is guilty!" ”

Zhao Xu drank tea with a cold expression. But he didn't really blame Liang Tao, from the bottom of his heart, Zhao Xu didn't expect Liang Tao to succeed, he also had Neiku's backhand.

His expression was indifferent, because he smelled something else from it.

The Sansi Yamen did not talk about the deficit of several million yuan, but only talked about the military salary of Huanqing Road, Lu Dafang and others, were they really indifferent and wantonly delayed?

You must know that since the beginning of this year, the Xixia people are ready to move, if the Huanqing Road is lost, the Xixia people can drive straight into Kaifeng City for a long time!

"Have you seen Lu Dafang?" Zhao Xu's tone was neither happy nor sad.

Liang Tao knelt on the ground and said, "Before the incident of the Sansi Yamen, the minister looked for it, but Zai Fu didn't say anything at that time. Yesterday, the minister kept watch in front of the gate of Lu Mansion all night, and this morning, the porter said that Lu Xianggong was sick and did not see guests. ”

Zhao Xu's eyes were half-narrowed, suppressing the surging anger, and said, "Is there any other way besides Lu Dafang?" Privy Council, Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province or others? ”

Liang Tao knelt on the ground, was silent for a while, and said, "Back to the official's house, there is no one else except Zaifu." ”

Zhao Xu's eyes stared at him for a moment, and he said coldly: "In other words, Lu Dafang is on leave, and the government affairs of the court are equivalent to being paralyzed?" ”

Liang Tao knelt on the ground, his body trembled slightly, and said, "Yes." ”

Zhao Xu held the teacup, his expression becoming more and more cold.

This time, Zhao Xu had a deeper understanding of the energy of Lu Dafang, the zaifu. Even if he doesn't have the backer of Empress Dowager Gao, Zhao Xu can't easily do anything with him!

Chen Pi lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

Liang Tao trembled, fearful in his heart. didn't complete the task, and I don't know what the official family will do with him.

Zhao Xu looked at Liang Tao, and thought about too many things in his mind for a moment, but now, he still had to deal with the matter of Huanqing Road, and carefully calculated for a while, and said, "500,000, can you raise it?" As the head of the household, the temporary acting envoy of the three ministers, won't he have no ability at all? ”

Liang Tao immediately said: "The minister can do it." ”

Liang Tao had already made up his mind in his heart, if he didn't collect all the money, he would make up for it out of his own pocket!

Zhao Xu nodded, if this Liang Tao can't do this, even if there is no one else, he won't need him.

As soon as Zhao Xu was about to say more, a yellow door hurriedly came in, handed over a notebook, and said, "The official family, sent it from Zhongshu Province." ”

Zhao Xu looked weird and said, "For me?" ”

Huang Men held up the notebook and said, "Yes." ”

Chen Pi was also an accident, after all, the music in the court was never directly sent to the official family.

He glanced at Zhao Xu, stepped forward to take it, and handed it to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu took it, opened it and looked at it, he couldn't help but tilt his head, and his eyes flashed fiercely.

This is Liu Shi'an's recital, which reads: 'The beginning of man, the beginning of filial piety; The foundation of the country, the ancestral law, the same is true. The divine order is what the world wants, and the truth is based on reason, and the thunder is in the law......

This can be understood as 'exhortation' and 'lesson'.

The approximate meaning of Liu Shi'an's recital is to accuse Zhao Xu of using the forbidden army in the palace to seal the yamen of the three divisions, detain the envoys of the three divisions for deviating from the ancestral law, the ritual law, and destroying the court program, which is not done by the holy monarch, and requires Zhao Xu to correct it.

'I haven't cleaned you up yet, but you're here to scold me!' ’

Zhao Xu snorted coldly in his heart, looked up at the yellow door again, and said, "Sent by Zhongshu Province?" ”

If the Zhongshu Province sends it directly, it is likely to be a clear and sparse, and it will be spread all over the government and the opposition, and it is likely to be passed on to future generations!

If this is really the case, this 'persuasion' will not give him the notoriety of 'faint king'!

If this is the case, this Liu Shi'an is really vicious and vicious!

Huang Men said: "Yes." ”

Zhao Xu's chest suddenly burst into anger, slammed the table, and was just about to drink, when a guard outside the door rushed in, and said urgently at the door: "Official, the Empress Dowager has woken up." ”

Zhao Xu's angry face changed slightly, and he quickly regained his composure, sitting on the chair with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Liang Tao on the ground, kneeling lower, holding his breath, motionless.

Chen Pi's face was full of surprise, and he looked at Zhao Xu with his head shrunk.

The Empress Dowager has woken up, what will the official family do after that? How will the Empress Dowager react?

Zhao Xu calmly picked up the teacup, took a sip silently, and said lightly for a while: "Wait for grandmother to summon." ”

Chen Pi listened and hurriedly said, "Official, don't you go over immediately?" ”

Zhao Xu was expressionless and said, "Give grandmother a little time." ”

Chen Pi pursed the corners of his mouth, not daring to speak again.

The yellow door and the guards quietly withdrew, and there was still a Liang Tao left in the hall.

Liang Tao knelt on the ground, cold sweat on his head, he forced his breathing, and his intuition was about to jump out of his heart.

The main hall of Cining Hall was very quiet, Zhao Xu was holding a teacup, looking out of the door quietly with his eyes, and he was constantly thinking about it in his heart.

At this moment, he had been waiting for a long time, and it was finally coming!

At this point, there is no turning around, and the Empress Dowager Gao must withdraw the curtain and return to power!

Da Song, you can't continue to be so muddy, there are too many things that need to be changed, and you can't wait!
