Chapter 8: Keju

Zhao Xu was silent, Gao Gongji's identity was special, and he couldn't move lightly without evidence. Moreover, there must be a motive for everything, why did Gao Gongji harm him? Who instructed him?

If it is the Empress Dowager Gao, it seems that there is no need to leave such a big flaw, and she has to kiss her nephew to do it in broad daylight, once it is verified, the consequences are unimaginable!

The sudden appearance of Gao Gongji made Zhao Xu's thoughts a little confused, but there was a clue after all.

He thought about it and said, "Keep an eye on him, find a time, I want to see him, outside the palace." If you continue to investigate, you have to be a little more hidden, and you must have solid evidence, understand? ”

Chen Pi also knew that the stakes were high, and said: "The official family can rest assured, and the villain knows." The villain is looking for someone to keep an eye on Gaofu, and there is a suitable time for the official family to see it. ”

Zhao Xu nodded lightly, thinking that this matter involved Gao Gongji, and it would definitely be very troublesome in the future, so he thought twice in his heart, and said: "You must also pay close attention to the investigation of the ministers of the imperial court, and be more cautious!" ”

If Gao Gongji was really involved in the plot to assassinate him, then he would have to borrow the power of the imperial court, after all, he had no real power in his hands, and he couldn't actually deal with anyone, not even self-preservation.

Chen Pi knew the severity and said solemnly: "Yes, the villain understands!" ”

Zhao Xu sat back, analyzed this matter in his heart, and said: "Go ahead, according to the joint I taught you, the method of transmitting the message, you must be cautious and hidden, so as not to be noticed that you are moving too much and arouse suspicion." ”

Chen Pi responded, and just as he was about to speak, his ears moved, and he said, "Official, it's His Highness the Eleventh." ”

Zhao Xu was stunned, listened carefully, didn't hear anything, and said curiously: "How do you know?" ”

Chen Pi touched his head and said, "The little one likes to listen to people's footsteps, this is the footsteps of His Highness Eleven, and the little one can hear it." ”

Zhao Xu thought it was interesting and looked out of the door, and not long after, Zhao Ji really appeared outside the door, poking out half of his head and peeking inside.

A yellow door came in and said, "Official, His Highness Eleventh asks to see you." ”

Zhao Xu saw Zhao Ji's small head, sneered, and said, "Let him play first." ”

The yellow door responded, Zhao Ji outside the door blinked, looked inside, blinked again, and really turned around and walked outside the hall.

Zhao Xu saw that Zhao Ji was gone, his smile flashed 'terrifying', and said to Chen Pi: "Go, don't be reluctant to spend money, if it's not enough, take a look at what is worth in the palace, and let people take it out and pawn it." If I don't sell it any more, this palace will be stolen by Zhao Ji's bastard things. ”

Chen Pi hurriedly responded and said, "Yes." The villain retired. ”

He felt more and more that the official family was going to do big things, not only did he not panic, but he was faintly excited.

Zhao Xu casually flipped through the book, still making judgments in his heart.

Gao Gongji suddenly appeared and pointed the finger at the Empress Dowager Gao, but there were some paradoxes in it, which didn't make sense.

Zhao Xu slowly flipped through the book, methodical and very calm in his heart.

"There are rumors to protect me, even if Gao Gongji is, Cining Hall will not dare to touch me for the time being, but I can meet to see clearly. Only when you know who the enemy is, can you target the drug......" Zhao Xu muttered to himself.

After figuring it out, Zhao Xu turned out the window and saw Zhao Ji and Chu You and a group of people bowing, sweating profusely and in full swing.

"In the end, it is a child, some play, and in a blink of an eye forget to be afraid......"

Zhao Xu snorted twice, didn't rush to settle accounts with him, and continued to read.

Empress Dowager Gao was investigating who was murdering Zhao Xu and who was spreading rumors, so she naturally kept an eye on Zhao Xu's side, and every move was reported to Empress Dowager Gao by Zhou He.

When Empress Dowager Gao heard that Zhao Ji was bowing with a group of guards in the Funing Palace, she didn't care, and waved her hand to signal Zhou He to retreat. She is the de facto ruler of the Great Song Dynasty, and the current Great Song Dynasty is ventilated and leaking rain from all sides, and there are too many things for her to worry about.

……

On this day, Zhao Xu was not in a hurry to clean up Zhao Ji, there was a chance to clean up this little bastard, and his goal was a group of guards for Chu You and others.

On the first day, Zhao Ji was allowed to bow, and he had a good time, but on the second day, Zhao Ji was a little calm, and after seeing Zhao Xu, he directly asked Chu You and others to bow, without any scruples.

There are many ways to play Juju in the Song Dynasty, there are a group of people mixed kicking, there are also group competitions, Zhao Ji is young and greedy, and he is happy to play in Funing Palace, and he is carried away.

Zhao Xu sat in the study and could see the front of the hall at a glance, but he didn't move, just glanced at it occasionally and immersed himself in reading.

There are many books in his study, there are many descriptions of the current situation of the Song Dynasty, many problems are recorded in detail, and the context of some things is very clear. Although many things are subjectively biased due to political stance, Zhao Xu still sees a lot of things and has a lot of ideas.

Zhao Xu was reading in the Funing Palace, and Chen Pi was also busy inside and outside the palace.

I can't find out who is the real culprit of the assassination, and no one in the palace can be safe.

By the third day, Zhao Ji was already very calm, and he was in full swing with Chu You and the others, and the shouts echoed endlessly in front of the Funing Palace.

Zhao Xu was so noisy that he couldn't read, so he walked under the eaves and watched a group of people chasing the ball back and forth.

Zhao Ji just glanced at Zhao Xu, and then continued to kick.

He's young, he's tired of playing, and he's not very sensitive until something happens.

However, when Chu You saw Zhao Xu, his expression was a little uneasy, and he made mistakes again and again, which made Zhao Ji very dissatisfied, and stopped muttering a few words.

Zhao Ji sat on the ground panting and resting, Chu You hesitated and came to Zhao Xu.

"The villain has seen the official family." Chu Yu saluted.

Zhao Xu looked at Zhao Ji's little bastard, and said casually: "You guys play with yours, I'm just a little bored." ”

Chu You got up, looked at Zhao Xu, and stopped talking.

Zhao Xu was stunned, looked at him and said, "What's wrong?" If you have something to say, say it. ”

Chu You glanced behind him, his expression was still hesitant, and after a while, he said with a deep color: "That day, the villain saw that the person who was following behind the official family came out of the Cining Palace. ”

Zhao Xu's face changed sharply, his eyes stared at Chu You sharply, and he said in a very calm tone: "You should know the consequences of your words." ”

Chu You lowered his head and said, "The villain knows that the official family is suspicious of the villain and others, but the villain is loyal to the official family and will never participate in this great rebellion!" On that day, I just happened to pass by and glanced at the official. ”

Zhao Xu's eyes flashed, and his heart surged fiercely.

Cining Hall is the place of Empress Dowager Gao, if it was the eunuch of Cining Hall who led him to the waste well that day, pushed him into the well to kill him, then this matter is full of inexplicable weirdness.

Would Empress Dowager Gao use such low-level means to harm him? In broad daylight, it was still seen? And why did Gao Gongji enter the palace? Are you afraid that others will not suspect her?

Zhao Xu frowned, and looked at Chu Yu indifferently.

He went to find Zhao Ji on a temporary basis, no one would have expected that he would bring Chu You and these people back, and it was impossible to arrange Chu You in advance.

'Empress Dowager Gao? Will it? ’

Zhao Xu's heart was shaken.
