Chapter 50 The Rumors Are Unstoppable
Zhao Xu stood in place, looked at the direction of the political affairs hall, smiled in his eyes, and said secretly: If you are this pool of stagnant water, I can also muddy it for you!
I believe that today's encounter will definitely bring a lot of impact to the government and the opposition!
Inside and outside the palace, they are paying attention to every move of the side hall of the vertical arch hall. After all, Zhao Xu forced Han Zhongyan to become incontinent and sent him back to his hometown. Everyone was worried that Zhao Xu would use the same or similar means to deal with Zai Zhi Lu Dafang.
Cining Temple.
Zhou He has been sending people to keep an eye on it, and he has come to report everything in detail.
When Lu Dafang came out of the vertical arch hall intact and returned to the political hall, Zhou He breathed a sigh of relief, came to the Empress Dowager Gao, and reported the front and back to the Empress Dowager Gao.
In the end, Zhou He said with a little smile: "Niangniang, the official family is still measured, and there is no out-of-the-ordinary behavior." In the end, the official family helped Lu Xianggong out, very respectful, and almost sent it to the political hall, and never slackened. ”
Empress Dowager Gao looked out of the door, sighed lightly for a long time, and said, "Confused." ”
Zhou He was stunned, pondering the word 'confused', guessing that the Empress Dowager Gao was talking about Zhao Xu, and said with a smile: "Although the official family has done a little too much, in the end it still expresses closeness, and the mother should be happy." ”
Empress Dowager Gao glanced at him and said, "You don't understand." Lu Xianggong is a stupid move. ”
Zhou He was puzzled, but it didn't take long for him to know, because there was more and more discussion in the palace about the meal between Zhao Xu and Lu Dafang.
……
In a corridor in the palace, three palace maids chatted while walking with plates.
"Qing'er, is what you said outside true? Lu Xianggong really can't hear it? ”
"Shhhh I was delivering food at the time, and the official family spoke loudly, and Lu Xianggong had to react for a while. ”
"It's not surprising if you want me to say, Lu Xianggong is over seventy years old, and the back of his ears is normal."
"Not only that, Lu Xianggong fell asleep halfway, and the official family and the two Su Xianggong couldn't hear it."
"Ah, is that so? So how do you deal with government affairs? ”
"Who knows, it's pretty serious anyway......"
In the imperial dining room, several yellow doors were also talking about this.
"Hu Yao, you tried the dishes in the Vertical Arch Hall before, you must have been there, right? Tell us about it, is Lu Xianggong really unable to walk? ”
"I know this, I saw Lu Xianggong out of the side hall, and it was the official family who supported him all the way, Lu Xianggong staggered, and he almost fell, but the official family pulled him back."
"Is that really the case? Then Lu Xianggong won't have anything, after all, people in their seventies, if they say they die, they won't die......"
"Shut up, nonsense!"
"Yes, yes, palm, palm, palm, ......"
"However, there is indeed something wrong with Lu Xianggong, the official asked him how his appetite was, and he actually replied that it was the Jinshi of the Emperor's Year, and he couldn't hear what the official was asking at all."
"This, is it the same for Lu Xianggong in the political affairs hall?"
"This is not clear, I didn't see the official family and Lu Xiang's fair 'please' during this meal, Lu Xianggong ate a bite from beginning to end, and then he was in a coma......"
The most idle thing in the palace is the mouth, which soon spread to Zhou He's ears.
Zhou He's face was tight, he knew the problem here, but he couldn't say anything, he could only sigh secretly: the official means are clever.
At this time, these things are also constantly fermenting outside the palace, and they are constantly being interpreted.
From the very beginning, Lu Dafang's 'back of the ears', 'lethargy', and 'inability to communicate' evolved into 'three', 'unconscious, rescued by the doctor', 'I know that I don't have a holiday, and I want to return to my hometown', 'I am seriously ill and will die soon' and so on.
Lu Dafang, Su Zhe, and Su Song in the political hall sat opposite each other, and they had already noticed the change in things.
And more than a dozen waves of people have come to the palace one after another, nominally to report work, but in fact to inquire about Lu Dafang's physical condition.
After all, it is an old family member in his seventies, if it really doesn't work, as the commander of the three provinces and six departments, the imperial court will definitely have a major earthquake, and he has to find out the number of roads in advance.
The officials of the various yamen outside the palace, especially the middle and high-level officials, were thinking about each other and their minds were secretly moving.
If it is really 'sixty', then there will definitely be a lot of vacant places inside and outside the capital!
Some voices can't be suppressed after all, teahouses, restaurants, dance pavilions, and singing platforms are slowly talking about Lu Xianggong's old age, deafness, blindness, and inability to see things.
As time passed, in the evening, the palace, which was originally quite lively, suddenly became a little strangely quiet. Even because Zhao Xu was going to stand up, the extremely lively harem, the crowd quietly turned into whispers.
In the government hall, it was even quieter.
Qin Bing looked at Lu Dafang's tightly closed duty room, his neck was cold, he shrank violently, and quietly sat back at his desk.
In the room, the three-phase Lu Dafang, Su Song, and Su Zhe all did not speak, and the atmosphere was quite depressing.
Su Zhe looked at Lu Dafang, hesitated again and again, but remained silent.
Lu Dafang actually lifted a stone and shot himself in the foot, and now the rumors outside are intensifying, as if Lu Dafang is going to be unable and preparing for the future.
Lu Dafang pretended to be behind his ears in front of the officials, and rumors were flying outside the palace, in this case, should Lu Dafang ...... Zhishi?
Or do you ignore the old face and continue to rely on it?
Su Song didn't want to speak anymore, he could be regarded as having seen Zhao Xu's power, this kung fu with strength was simply perfect, and it only took a few words to force Lu Dafang into this situation.
This is more than making Han Zhongyan incontinent, Han Zhongyan is just leaving, and it doesn't affect the overall situation. Now it has shaken the prestige and status of Lu Dafang, this is a huge impact on the government and the opposition, and it is a ruthless move!
He can already predict that there are already many people who are gearing up to figure out how to ask Lu Dafang to be a teacher, or even ask the official family to govern himself!
The three of them were silent for a long time, but Su Zhe opened his mouth and said, "Zaifu, let's go see the Empress Dowager." ”
Now, only Empress Dowager Gao can have a way to save the situation.
Lu Dafang had no expression on his face, raised his heavy eyelids and swept over the two people in front of him, his voice was as calm, calm, and hoarse as before, and said, "It's nothing to worry about, just do what you have to do." ”
When Su Zhe heard this, he looked anxious and said, "Zaifu, even if you can ignore the rumors outside, the official family has to take care of it." If it goes on endlessly, I'm afraid that my Song Dynasty will have no more peaceful days to live! If you wait for the official family to govern and continue to change the law, how can the subjects of the world feel at ease? ”
Su Song's expression also changed slightly, they are all 'old parties', when Shenzong forced Wang Anshi to strike for the second time, he confronted Shenzong for many years, and finally realized the change of Yuan You and restored the ancestral system, how can he do it again!?
Lu Dafang was not shocked, and said: "The Empress Dowager is still there, we are still there, and the official family is not pro-government, what are you worried about?" ”
Ersu looked at Lu Dafang, and stopped talking.
That's right, the official family is indeed not in charge of the government, but judging from the situation these days, it is difficult for the official family to settle down, so they can't help but worry!
Lu Dafang turned his head to look at the sky outside and said, "It's time, let's go back." ”
As Lu Dafang spoke, he got up and prepared to go home from work.
The two Su glanced at each other, and when they saw Lu Dafang just leave, they couldn't help but be stunned and stunned.
Such a big thing, don't explain it well, and leave like this?
