Zhao Xu watched Chen Pi leave, and saw that Empress Dowager Gao's face was becoming more and more ruddy, and she could wake up at any time, muttered for a while, and got up to come to the main hall of Cining Hall again.

Zhou He saw that Zhao Xu was gone, so he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

No one can feel the pressure Zhao Xu gave him more than him, those big people in the outer court are all relied on, and if it's a big deal, they will go to Beijing and watch the wind, and sooner or later they will be able to return. But as an internal supervisor, especially the position of Huangmen Ling, if one is not good, it will be difficult to die well!

Zhou He was very panicked, took two steps forward, looked at the sleeping Empress Dowager Gao, and said in a panic: "Niangniang, wake up quickly." ’

Zhao Xu came to the main hall of Cining Hall and continued to pick up the notebook on the table and read it.

It's not all about greetings, it's a lot of pragmatic plays.

The first is about the possible 'flooding' this summer, which is a transcript of Xijing Henan Prefecture.

Zhao Xu looked at it with a calm expression.

At this time, the flood disaster of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River is extremely terrible, not only dredging, but also the prevention of flooding requires great effort, and it will be repaired once in three or five years.

Zhao Xu carefully read this notebook, wrote it down in his heart, and picked up another one.

This is a recital of the provincial official Wailang, a recital about the 'emptiness of the treasury', saying that in recent years, the imperial court's expenditure has been too large, taxes have been reduced, and the treasury cannot make ends meet, and the recital asks for a reduction in expenditure.

Zhao Xu stared at this notebook, especially the words 'making ends meet', with a pensive expression.

There is a lot of income, so where is the bulk of the expenditure?

One is military spending, and the other is 'three redundancies'!

Zhao Xu thought about it, put it aside, and picked up the following.

When Zhao Xu was flipping through the book, the Imperial City Division received an order from Chen Pi,

Nan Tianyou, the new director of the Imperial City Division, received the order and was very excited, and took twenty people out of the Imperial City Division and went straight to Zhongshu Province.

Coming to the gate of Zhongshu Province, Nan Tianyou wanted to break in directly, but looking at the small but majestic gate of Zhongshu Province, he suddenly became afraid, changed his mind, stood in front of the door and said loudly: "The Imperial City Division was ordered to take people, where is Liu Shi'an?" ”

Although the Imperial City Division is 'according to the law of the ancestors, not subordinate to the three ya', the status is detached, and only obeys the emperor's orders, but in recent decades it has not done much, so it is particularly 'low-key', and many people have not even heard of this department.

There happened to be an official passing by the door, looked at Nan Tianyou, thought about it, and said, "He took leave today." ”

Nan Tianyou looked at him, raised his hand, turned around and left.

This is Zhongshu Province, and he is also afraid of breaking in and causing trouble. Compared with a big yamen like Zhongshu Province, breaking into Liu's Mansion is not a big deal.

Nan Tianyou took people and hurriedly came to Liu Shi'an's mansion.

This time, Nan Tianyou broke into the door without any psychological pressure, kicked the door open, pulled a family member and said coldly: "Where is Liu Shi'an?" ”

This Ding looked at the person who came wearing official uniforms, but he didn't know where it was, and said tremblingly: "Our lord didn't return last night. ”

Nan Tianyou frowned and said, "Where did you go?" ”

Jia Ding said: "Lu Mansion." ”

Nan Tianyou pulled violently and said, "Zaifu? ”

Jia Ding nodded a little cringe.

Nan Tianyou stared at him for a moment, then pushed him away, his expression changing.

A janissary behind him stepped forward and whispered, "Third brother, what should I do?" ”

Zaifu's mansion is not something anyone can break into, and even if they get there, they may not be able to enter, let alone ask for people and arrest people.

Nan Tianyou thought about it and said, "I'll go see Gonggong Chen and go." ”

Nan Tianyou is just a small official in the end, and he can't be on the stage in the eyes of most people.

He took people and left Liu Shi'an's mansion and turned to the imperial city.

Not only did Nan Tianyou not be able to enter the gate of the Lu Mansion, Liang Tao kept watch in front of the Lu Mansion all night, but he still couldn't get in.

The porter looked at Liang Tao and said bitterly: "Liang Shangshu, Xianggong is really sick, he has already taken leave from the court, and now he is bedridden and really can't see guests." ”

Where is Liang Tao willing to believe, he waited all night, and it happened that he fell ill early in the morning, he calmed his face, and no longer had scruples, and said directly: "You just tell Zai Fu that the military salary on Huanqing Road cannot be delayed, and the official family only gave me five days, if it can't be solved in five days, not only me, that Su Xianggong will definitely not have a good end, let Zai Fu think it himself!" If he continues to pretend to be deaf and dumb, Han Zhongyan will be a lesson from the past! ”

What is the fate of Han Zhongyan, as we all know, he left the court in embarrassment almost in disgrace!

The guy was startled, banged, and closed the door directly.

Liang Tao was angry, looking at the closed door of the Lu Mansion, Tie Qing stomped his feet with a blushing face, and left angrily.

It's not the first time he's come to find Lu Dafang, he came before Su Zhe's incident, Lu Dafang knows it in his heart, and now he still avoids it, this is a decision to ignore it!

Not long after Liang Tao left, Jiading relayed his words to Lu Dafang as they were.

At this moment, Lu Dafang, half-lying on a chair in the middle of nowhere, covered with a thick blanket, listened without moving, and said, "Go ahead." ”

The family looked at Lu Dafang with some uneasiness, and then retreated respectfully.

As soon as the family left, Liu Shi'an came in with a playbook and raised his hand respectfully.

Lu Dafang raised his eyes, looked at him, and said, "Have you thought about it?" ”

Liu Shi'an raised his hand and said solemnly: "What the official family has done violates the ancestral law and violates the rules, as a courtier, he should have the responsibility of admonishing." Self-reflection does not shrink, although brown and broad, I am not worried. Reflexively shrinking, although tens of millions of people are gone! ”

Lu Dafang looked at him for a while and said, "The Empress Dowager is fine." ”

Liu Shi'an's expression became more stable, and he said in a deep tone: "The lower official is leaving." ”

Lu Dafang watched him leave, and there was no expression on his face full of age spots.

At the same time, Chen Pi came to the political hall with Zhao Xu's will.

Although the position of the political affairs hall has not changed after the reform of Yuanfeng, the affiliation has been changed from Zhongshu Province to Shangshu Province, so it is sometimes called 'Dutang', and it is still customary to call it the Political Affairs Hall.

In the government hall, there are five rooms, such as the house, the intellectual system, and the officials, households, and punishments, which are usually called the 'East House', and the Privy Council's 'West House'.

Lu Dafang took leave, and the entire political hall was headed by Qin Bing, a member of the Zhongshu House.

Qin Bing knew that something must be wrong with Chen Pilai, and when he saw that he had also brought the guards, his expression was even more panicked, and he raised his hand and led a group of people to receive the order.

Chen Pi glanced at him, spread out his will, and said in a deep voice: "I Shao Yingjun's life: I succeeded to the throne with the support of my grandmother, and now my grandmother is Shao'an, and the political hall is out of order, taking the holy life in vain, refusing to go to the court, it is really hateful......"

Qin Bing listened, and his scalp was about to explode.

It is true that the dynasty should be opened today, but a three-division yamen was sealed, the three envoys were imprisoned, and a queen mother was seriously ill, and they were almost accustomed to thinking that the dynasty should be suspended today, and they completely forgot that they should inform the officials of the Funing Palace!

The reason why Qin Bing was afraid was that in addition to worrying about Zhao Xu's move, he also thought of another possibility: it was impossible for Zai Fu to ignore it, maybe it ...... It's on purpose!

Chen Pi didn't care what Qin Bing thought, after reading out the holy decree of reprimand, he directly said coldly: "The official family has a will, and everyone in the political hall goes to the vertical arch hall and kneels to listen to the fate. ”

Qin Bing's expression moved, but he still responded in a panic: "The ministers obey the order,"
