Zhou He soon came to the Kangning Hall and announced the decree to Concubine Zhu.

Concubine Zhu was very nervous, she had been neglected for more than seven years, and suddenly received the will of the Empress Dowager, which frightened her a lot, her face was a little pale, and she was waiting with anxiety.

Zhou He spread out the holy decree with an expressionless face and read it out loud: "The kingship of this hall begins at IKEA, and the rank of the palace is heavy......"

This is the Empress Dowager's decree, not the decree of Zhao Xu.

Concubine Zhu was very nervous and listened tremblingly, but it didn't take long for her to raise her head and look at Zhou He in amazement.

This edict is not to reprimand, rebuke, or punish her!

This is a 'reward', although the will is vague, but Concubine Zhu has been in the palace for a long time, and she doesn't know much about the others, and she still knows about things in the harem.

Empress Dowager Gao's decree is actually to improve her status, not only to expand the palace for her, but also to allow her to use many rituals and utensils that can only be used by the Empress Dowager!

Concubine Zhu's face turned even paler, and when Zhou He finished reading it, she said in a trembling voice: "Father-in-law Zhou, is this true?" ”

Concubine Zhu knows the character of the Empress Dowager Gao, and she will not allow two empress dowagers to appear in the harem!

Zhou He smiled slightly, stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, the concubine, this is what the official family invited you to the Empress Dowager." ”

Concubine Zhu was surprised and delighted, and said, "Is it really invited by the official family?" ”

Concubine Zhu has always been thrifty and docile, and she doesn't care about any fine clothes and food, but what her son fought for her, this heart is enough to make her happy.

Zhou He picked up Concubine Zhu and said with a smile: "Yes, how can a villain deceive Niangniang." The official family has to go to thank him now. Don't worry, rest for a while, and go later. ”

Concubine Zhu was happy because Zhao Xu asked for her life, and she couldn't think of anything else, I don't know why she couldn't thank Zhao Xu together, and nodded again and again: "Yes, Gonggong Zhou, please sit down, I have a good ...... here."

Zhou He interrupted Concubine Zhu with a smile and said, "Niangniang, the villain has other things, come and bother ...... another day."

"Yes, Gonggong Zhou must be very busy, I'll send you out......" Concubine Zhu said a little helplessly.

Zhou He stopped Concubine Zhu with a smile, walked out of the Kangning Palace, and went straight to the Funing Palace.

Concubine Zhu looked at Zhou He's back, pursed her lips, thinking about so much sadness and suffering, and finally waited until today, and couldn't help crying again and again.

"Little lady, what's wrong?" Zhao seemed to come out of it, and said with a little puzzled face.

Zhao You'e nodded on her toes, stretched out her little hand to wipe her tears for Concubine Zhu, and said softly: "Little lady doesn't cry, we are very well-behaved." ”

Concubine Zhu had a smile on her face, tears continued, and she squatted down and hugged the two children, the louder she cried.

……

Before Zhou He arrived at the Funing Palace, Zhao Xu already knew about it.

Chen Pi was wide-eyed, not knowing what to say.

The Empress Dowager took action to stabilize the chaotic outer court, and they should be worried; The backhand has raised the status of Concubine Zhu again, should they be happy?

Chu You didn't understand, and his eyes were puzzled.

Zhao Xu sat on the chair in the study at this time, exhaled deeply, and said secretly: These two hands are much more clever than the so-called office politics.

Empress Dowager Gao cut off Zhao Xu's hand stretched out to the court, and at the same time promoted the status of Concubine Zhu, and then gave Zhao Xu enough face after a big stick, and played the power trick to the extreme.

After a while, Chen Pi suddenly said, "Official, what should I do now?" ”

Zhao Xu was thinking, and when he asked, he subconsciously said, "What to do?" ”

Chen Pi said: "The official, the two wills of the Empress Dowager. ”

The Empress Dowager has made a move, and they have to deal with it too.

Zhao Xu sighed, reached out and took the teacup, and said, "Don't worry, as long as grandmother doesn't make a move on me or the people around her, just watch it for the time being." ”

Chen Pi looked puzzled.

Chu You was also puzzled.

The Empress Dowager took action to stabilize the outer court and freed her hand, so the official family was not worried? This time, the official family may have really angered the Empress Dowager, Zaifu.

Zhao Xu looked at the expressions of the two, laughed, didn't rush to speak, took a sip of tea gently, and then said, "First, it's not to that point." Second, who has the courage and determination to get to that point? Thirdly, it's late. ”

Chen Pi and Chu You couldn't help but think about it when they listened to Zhao Xu's 'three' sentence.

Whether it has reached the step of 'abolishing the emperor and setting up another one', they can't say. But the Heavenly Family has always been ruthless, from the founding of the Great Song Dynasty to the present, when it comes to the throne, how many inexplicable things have happened?

Whether the Empress Dowager and Zai Fu have the courage and determination, they are not easy to guess, they are not in that position, with their status and status, there is no way to speculate.

It was the last one, which gave the two of them some confidence.

In the past few days, the official family has snatched the military power of the forbidden army in the palace, suppressed the three envoys, sent away the privy envoys, and almost let the chief executive sue the old man to return to his hometown.

As long as there is a hint of it, it will be a thunderbolt for the official family!

What they understood was 'late' was that Zhao Xu had the forbidden army in his hands, and Zhao Xu had the final say in this palace. If someone really has that thought, Zhao Xu will definitely kill and wash the palace in blood!

In that situation, who will sit still and wait to be killed?

Chen Pi seemed to have figured it out, took a long breath, regained a lot of confidence, and said calmly: "The official family is wise, it's the villain who is thinking nonsense." ”

Zhao Xu smiled silently, what he said 'late' was his shock inside and outside the palace.

Zhao Xu's purpose has always been very clear, that is, to get rid of the small transparency, highlight the sense of existence, so that inside and outside the palace, the government and the opposition can no longer ignore him, the emperor!

Judging from the two hands of the Empress Dowager Gao, his goal has been achieved. If it was in the past, Empress Dowager Gao would have called him to him and severely reprimanded him, either grounded, or reprimanded Concubine Zhu and others for a lesson.

The current action is more like appeasement.

And that's exactly what he was looking forward to!

He never thought of immediately forcing Empress Dowager Gao to withdraw the curtain and immediately letting Lu Dafang and other 'old parties' disappear, which is unrealistic.

What Zhao Xu has to do now is to constantly highlight his presence and increase the weight of him as an emperor.

Only when this emperor is strong enough can he sit on the throne steadily, only when the throne is stable, can he slowly gain power, and only by holding power and becoming a real emperor can he avoid the fate of untimely death in history!

At this moment, a yellow door came to the door, knocked on the door twice, and said, "Official, the yellow door order asks to see." ”

Zhao Xu stretched out his hand to Chen Pi, and Chu Yu pressed it, signaling them to be silent.

He squinted, pinched his earlobe with his right hand, and his mind was like lightning. Although the basic goal has been achieved, we must not retreat from this, otherwise the initiative will become a passive beating.

Not long after, Zhao Xu stood up violently and said, "I'll go see my grandmother." ”

Chen Pi was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "Official, are you going like this?" ”

Zhao Xu strode towards the door and said, "That's it." ”

When Chen Pi saw Zhao Xu going like this, he was worried, and kept up with what he was going to say, but saw that Zhao Xu had already opened the door and stepped out directly.

Zhao Xu went out, didn't look at Zhou He, and went straight to Cining Palace.
