Rao is Yang Hui Wang Cun and the two have been up and down in the sea for many years, and in the face of Zhao Xu, the emperor's loud reprimand, he is still hot-skinned and self-conscious.

At such a time, it is no longer meaningful to quibble about whether there is an attack, slander, or framing of these, trying to make people laugh!

Seeing that the two of them were speechless, Zhao Xu suppressed his anger and said lightly: "Write a letter to your family and go to the Criminal Department to surrender." ”

Wang Cun's expression moved, and he stopped talking.

His Majesty the Emperor made his attitude clear in front of them, and in addition, their was in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor, so he really didn't have the courage to say anything more.

Zhao Xu stared at the two of them and said, "What, do you want to ask anyone?" ”

Wang Cun's face changed sharply, and he knelt on the ground with a pop, and his body trembled violently.

Yang Hui didn't know that there was someone behind Wang Cun, let alone who it was, he just thought that Wang Cun was against the change, and when he saw the official point out, his heart shook wildly, and he suddenly knelt on the ground, his head was dripping with cold sweat, and he didn't dare to breathe.

He is not a fool, nor is he a newcomer, he thought of it in an instant.

Zhao seemed to be standing beside Zhao Xu, and saw Zhao Xu kneeling on the ground trembling with a few words, and his little face was full of admiration.

Zhao Xu stared at the two of them for a while, then glanced at Zhao Yi beside him, and said, "Thirteenth brother, you look at the two of them, ask them to write out the list, and then escort them to the criminal department." ”

Zhao seemed to hurriedly raise his hand and said in a decent manner: "Obey." ”

Zhao Xu didn't look at Wang Cun and Yang Hui again, turned around and went out, and rushed to the next place with a large group of guards.

Wang Cun knelt on the ground, his old face white.

If it is just a party attack, framing the courtiers, and opposing the new law, there may be salvation, but if you are involved in the struggle for power on the throne, it will be absolutely lifeless!

Yang Hui hated it in his heart, and finally understood how today's formation could be so big, and even the official family personally came to his mansion with the guards, it turned out that this Wang Cun was involved in the battle for imperial power!

'Damn! Yang Hui hated it so much that he couldn't wait to pounce on it and bite Wang Cun to death.

If this is investigated, their Yang family is enough to raid the family and exterminate the clan!

Zhao seemed to have a straight face, held the knife, glanced at the guards left by Zhao Xu behind him, turned to the two kneeling people, and said in a young and firm voice: "Come on, give them the four treasures of the study, and let them write." ”

There are guards responding, quickly look for it.

Wang Cun knelt on the ground, his pale face struggling, not knowing whether to write or not.

If he didn't write, His Majesty the Emperor obviously knew, and he would definitely not be spared.

Yang Hui knelt on the ground, his face gloomy, and glanced at Wang Cun with a fierce gaze.

Wang Cun's heart was cold, but in the end he couldn't overcome his fear, he picked up the pen tremblingly, and wrote stroke by stroke on the ground.

Zhao seemed to look at it, his little face couldn't help but be happy, holding the sword in his right hand, and his body became straighter and straighter.

Zhao Xu left the Yang Mansion, sat in a carriage, crossed the Royal Street, passed by Fan Lou, and the carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Meng Mansion.

At this time, the Meng Mansion was surrounded by the guards, the gate was open, and the guards had three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry.

Zhao Xu got out of the carriage, looked at it, and walked straight inside.

Chen Pi followed all the way, secretly awe-inspiring, he didn't know these arrangements before!

He was secretly vigilant, and at the same time looked in the direction of the main hall of the Meng Mansion, frowning slightly.

This is Meng's Mansion, Meng Meiren's maiden home, and now lives her grandfather Meng Yuan, who once led troops to confront Zhao Xu under the Xuande Gate.

Chen Pi quietly glanced at Zhao Xu's side face, not knowing what he would do.

Meng Meiren is already the queen recognized by the Empress Dowager's edict, but the post-canonization ceremony was not held.

If Meng Yuan is disposed of, what should Meng Meiren or Empress Meng do?

Chen Pi didn't dare to think about it, and the group followed Zhao Xu to the main hall of the Meng Mansion, Meng Yuan stood at the foot of the steps, raised his hand and saluted, and said, "Minister Meng Yuan, see the official family." ”

Meng Yuan was very old, with dark corners of his face, thin, sunken eyes, and no expression could be seen.

Zhao Xu examined him for a moment and said, "Go and sit inside." ”

Meng Yuan didn't have any expression, turned sideways and let Zhao Xu go, and followed behind him.

The two of them sat down in the hall, and after the tea was served, Zhao Xu and Meng Yuan, Chen Pi and a few guards were left.

Meng Yuan's face was expressionless, his body was thin, but he sat upright but had his own momentum.

Zhao Xu didn't drink tea, didn't make a detour, sat and looked out of the door, and said without squinting: "In terms of relationship, Meng Meiren is my queen, and I have to call you a big daddy." On the outline, I am the king, and you are the minister. You should consider your granddaughter, consider the long-term of the Meng family, no matter how bad it is, there are still four words of 'great rebellion', I have given you opportunities again and again, I really don't understand, why do you want to go all the way to the dark? ”

Meng Yuan was also facing the door, his expression was indifferent for a while, and he said, "Your Majesty, there are some things that are unacceptable. ”

Zhao Xu understood, there was no turning back for this Meng Yuan, so he said: "I will not embarrass Meng Meiren, nor will I abolish her, she will be officially canonized as the queen next year." Meng Tang is my brother-in-law, if he is talented, I will treat him like an ordinary person. ”

Meng Yuan's heart shook violently, and it was difficult to keep calm. Zhao Xu's words are that he is only involved, and he will not be punished, and the Meng family will be preserved!

The corners of Meng Yuan's face twitched again and again, but he still got up and said prostrately: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Zhao Xu glanced at him, got up straight and left the Meng Mansion.

Meng Yuan knelt on the ground and didn't say a word, and he didn't move until Zhao Xu came out of the main hall.

Zhao Xu got into the carriage, and Chen Pi couldn't help but ask, "Guanjia, are you leaving like this?" ”

Zhao Xu looked indifferent and said: "In this way, he can still stand up, he is the number one loyal minister in the ages." ”

Chen Pi couldn't guess Zhao Xu's intentions, so he didn't dare to ask more, and said, "Official, where are you going now?" ”

Zhao Xu sat in the carriage, thinking expressionlessly, and said after a while: "It's almost outside the palace, it's time to be in the palace...... Go back, go slower, and give them a little time. ”

Chen Pi became more and more confused, and did not know who 'they' were referring to.

Still, the carriage slowed down. Escorted by a group of guards, Zhao Xu's carriage drove slowly.

In Kaifeng City, patrolling guards are everywhere, and pedestrians on the streets are almost invisible. But many people looked at Zhao Xu's team from the windows and cracks in the doors, with solemn expressions and whispers.

didn't walk long, and suddenly a janissary caught up with him, handed a letter to the carriage, and said, "Official, written by Marquis Meng Yu." ”

Meng Yuhou is Meng Yuan.

Zhao Xu stretched out his hand to take it, took out the paper inside and looked at it, only to see that it was a personal name that had not dried up in the pen and ink, most of them were in the forbidden army, both inside and outside the city, among the palace commanders controlled by Chu You, among the tiger fear army, and even the palace guards who had been cleaned by him several times!

Zhao Xu secretly said that he was lucky, and said to himself in his heart: Zhuge is only cautious in his life, but fortunately I am cautious, otherwise I really don't know when the boat capsized in the gutter.

Zhao Xu looked at this list for a while, put it in his arms, and said, "What about others?" ”

The Praetorian Guard raised his hand and said, "Dead, no, committed suicide." ”

Zhao Xu raised his eyebrows, the accident seemed normal, waved his hand, and motioned for the carriage to move on.

The carriage was moving forward, but as time passed, too many people could not bear such a big movement.

Empress Dowager Gao in the Cining Hall sat on her own for a while, still very uneasy, looked at Zhou He who was standing on the side, and said, "You say, what are the officials going to do?" ”

Zhou He's body trembled slightly, and even cold sweat broke out on his face, and Empress Dowager Gao's words fell for a while before she became agitated, and hurriedly said: "Oh, ah, the villain doesn't know either." ”

Empress Dowager Gao frowned, looked at Zhou He's expression, and suddenly said coldly: "Say!" ”

Just one word, Zhou He was like thunder, and he knelt on the ground with a pop, his face was pale, he trembled on his knees, and his voice seemed to be knotted, and said, "Mother...... Mother, villain...... Villain...... Is it a last resort...... Please forgive me, ......"

Empress Dowager Gao's face was pale, her eyes were wide open, and she smiled angrily and said, "Okay, good!" What a good means! ”

Zhou He knelt on the ground and was already crying.

He is not a loyal and unyielding person who can withstand the great punishment, plus the Imperial City Division threatened his family, but in just one hour, Zhou He almost made all the moves.

As the Empress Dowager Gao's closest confidant, the chief administrator of the palace and the Cining Palace, there is nothing he doesn't know about the Empress Dowager Gao.

Empress Dowager Gao no longer looked at Zhou He, stared coldly at the door, suddenly got up, and strode out.

Zhou He was in fear and forgot to stop him.

Empress Dowager Gao could only go out of Cining Hall alone, she didn't go anywhere else, and went straight to Funing Palace.

In the Funing Palace, there were guards everywhere, as well as Zhao Hao kneeling in the courtyard.

No one stopped the Empress Dowager Gao, who came with anger, looked at her son who was kneeling on the ground, became even more angry, strode over, and shouted, "Who made you kneel here?" ”

Zhao Hao is now the master of the six gods, his heart is like ashes, seeing the Empress Dowager Gao coming, he has no spirit of the past, just looked at her blankly.

Empress Dowager Gao knew this son very well, and if she had caused trouble in the past, she would have cried and hugged her legs.

She looked at Zhao Hao's face coldly, and then saw the official book on the ground, and reached out to pick it up.

Zhao Hao's lips opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

Empress Dowager Gao opened her face with a blue face, her eyes opened wide after just a few glances, the more she looked at her breath, the more rapid she became, and when she saw the end, she felt dizzy, unsteady on her feet, unsteady in her words, staring at Zhao Hao and said: "Huanqing Road's military salary is lost, Tongxia, digging the Yellow River, these ...... It's all true......"

Zhao Hao sat up a little straighter, wanting to quibble, but couldn't find the words.

When Empress Dowager Gao saw it, she intuitively felt that she was about to fall backwards as soon as it was dark.

The guards around her were startled, and hurriedly supported her, and sent the Empress Dowager Gao back while passing on the imperial doctor.

Zhao Hao sat on his knees in a daze, dumbfounded.

There was a great chaos in the palace, and Concubine Zhu and Meng Meiren were all alarmed, and they rushed to Cining Hall one after another, staring at the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

Empress Dowager Gao was not unconscious, her face was full of gloom, she looked at Concubine Zhu and Meng Meiren on the side, and said in a low voice: "Where is the official family, I want to see him." ”

Concubine Zhu looked worried, and said softly: "Niangniang is relieved, I have already asked people to find him, he is outside the palace and will come back soon." ”

Empress Dowager Gao didn't care about what Zhao Xu was going to do when she left the palace, and turned her head to look at the top of the mosquito net, her eyes blank.

She knew the things of Lu Dafang and others, and she could accept them, but these things of his son, as the empress dowager who had gone through four dynasties and listened to the government for seven years, she couldn't accept it.

Meng Meiren was very worried, biting her lip from time to time.

At this time, Zhao Xu was in the green tile house.

He looked at the several notebooks prepared by Zhang Tun, and then looked at Su Song, Zhang Tun, and Cai Bian who were standing in front of him, and said, "It's okay, send it to the Vertical Arch Hall to seal it, and it will be promulgated tomorrow." ”

Zhang Duan raised his hand solemnly and said in a deep voice: "Obey the order!" ”

"Official, my mother is sick." At this time, Chen Pi hurriedly ran over.

Zhao Xu was taken aback and said, "What's wrong with the little lady?" Did someone disturb her? ”

Chen Pi was stunned and hurriedly said, "No, the official family, it's the Queen Mother." ”

Zhao Xu's surprise decreased, and he thought that the Empress Dowager Gao had been sick twice before, glanced at Zhang Dian and the others, and said, "I will go to the Cining Hall first, you are careful and proper." ”

When everyone heard that Empress Dowager Gao suddenly fell ill at this time, they had different thoughts and no objections, and raised their hands to send Zhao Xu away.

When Zhao Xu arrived at the Cining Palace, there was still a large group of people in the hall.

When Concubine Zhu saw Zhao Xu, she hurriedly pulled him aside, and stopped talking for a while before she whispered, "Niangniang...... None of your business, right? ”

Zhao Xu nodded, patted her hand again, and said, "Don't worry, little lady, I know the severity, not me." ”

Only then did Concubine Zhu breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly pulled him forward again.

Meng Meiren watched Zhao Xu come back, bowed to his side, and kept frowning.

Zhao Xu glanced at her, didn't say much, came to the bed of the Empress Dowager Gao and sat down.

Empress Dowager Gao's face was pale, her expression was aggrieved, and when she saw Zhao Xu sitting over, she looked at him with a blank look.

At this time, a palace maid took the medicine, Zhao Xu skillfully took it, looked at the Empress Dowager Gao and said, "Grandmother is relieved, it's not a big deal, the body is important." ”

Empress Dowager Gao looked at Zhao Xu, and seemed to remember that he had also fed her medicine here a few times before, thinking back to what had happened in the past few months, her tone had endless emotion, and she said slowly: "Official, I'm old." ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall was suddenly shocked.

This sentence is not just a simple emotion, it came out of the mouth of the Empress Dowager Gao, facing Zhao Xu, it was a kind of 'admitting defeat'!

Meng Meiren suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, her tense heart suddenly relaxed, and her body almost fell down in a flash.

Concubine Zhu didn't think too much, but just looked at Empress Dowager Gao with some concern.

Although Empress Dowager Gao didn't like her and treated her harshly repeatedly, she still respected her in her heart.

Zhao Xu was also stunned, he didn't expect Empress Dowager Gao to say this.

"Grandmother, take the medicine first." In an instant, Zhao Xu calmed down, blew the medicine in the spoon, and handed it to Empress Dowager Gao's lips.

Empress Dowager Gao subconsciously opened her mouth, and frowned after drinking a little, her face was still disappointed and dazed.

Zhao Xu fed slowly, before he came, he already knew why Empress Dowager Gao was sick again, because he saw the book about Zhao Hao.

He didn't expect Empress Dowager Gao to have such a big reaction, and she actually 'admitted defeat' directly.
