Chapter 498: Meng Haoyan's distress
These words immediately caused an uproar, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu stood up first and said: "Your Majesty, you can't play!" Since ancient times, it is a rule that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and this queen mother is also a concubine in the harem, how can the queen mother be allowed to go to court with His Majesty? ”
"The queen mother came to the court just to relieve my headwind, I will not let her participate in the affairs of the court, the master of the Ministry of Rites can rest assured." The emperor waved his hand, he already knew that many people would oppose him when he said this, so he felt even more headache.
And the criminal department Shangshu stood up and said: "Weichen thinks that it is okay at this time, Your Majesty's head wind is now serious enough to affect Your Majesty's handling of political affairs, if the queen mother comes to help relieve Your Majesty's head wind, it can make Your Majesty more attentive when he goes to court." ”
The emperor nodded with great satisfaction: "I am what Zhao Qing meant. ”
Hearing the emperor praise Zhao Guanshou, many ministers in the court also stood up: "Weichen also thinks that as long as the queen doesn't let the queen mother deal with political affairs, it's fine." ”
"Your Majesty's head is so serious, we, as ministers, should be considerate of Your Majesty to ......"
Chu Nanyue listened coldly to the echo in the court, at this time, the opposition in the court has been slowly drowned out, and the emperor nodded with great satisfaction: "In this case, the queen will follow me to the court tomorrow." ”
He gave Duke Su a look, and Grandpa Su hurriedly announced: "If you have something to play, please quit the court!" ”
Chu Nanyue thought of Dongling Shuo's instructions to him yesterday, thought about it for a while, and still didn't stand up against it.
But thinking about it will only make people feel ridiculous, as long as people stand on top of this court and are exposed to it, it is impossible not to interfere in politics.
She sneered, and then prepared to go back to the house, but was stopped by Meng Haoyan, the head of the household: "General Chu! ”
Chu Nanyue looked back at this gentle man, and raised her eyebrows: "What's the matter with Lord Meng?" ”
Meng Haoyan pulled her into the pavilion in the palace and sat opposite her, with some anxiety in his tone: "Now that this court is full of people from Dongling Yan talking, won't the prince let us make a move?" ”
"Ben wouldn't know." Chu Nanyue replied honestly: "The king of Bei'an has his own plans, you just need to obey the orders of the king of Bei'an." ”
"Hey." Meng Haoyan couldn't help but sigh, he was also conscientious in this court, and he rarely involved in those open and secret battles, but he was also targeted for grievances in the past few days.
"What's wrong with Lord Meng?" Chu Nanyue asked curiously, she hadn't been to the court for a few days, she felt as if she had derailed from this court.
Meng Haoyan sighed again, with a sad face: "General Chu doesn't know, His Majesty wants Weichen to raise military salaries, and now it's about to end the year, where should the household department go to raise it?" Aren't you going to the people and the rich businessmen to loot it? ”
"Raising military salaries?" Mu Xiyue immediately became excited when she heard this: "Now the military salary in the military camp is enough, South Vietnam has signed an agreement with us last year, if there is no accident, there will be no war this year, why do you need to raise military salaries?" ”
"Your Majesty was bewitched by the queen mother, the queen mother said to be prepared, raise some military salaries, if South Vietnam does not keep its promise this year, we will not be in a hurry." Meng Haoyan sighed again, he didn't expect that such a reason could actually make the emperor agree.
Chu Nanyue snorted coldly: "Didn't you say that you are not allowed to interfere in politics in the harem?" ”
"Now the queen mother is Your Majesty's new favorite, King Qi is Your Majesty's favorite son, these two people are unmatched in the court, the King of Bei'an ordered us to stop the flag, let us be in this court, it is really more and more aggrieved."
Even Meng Haoyan's gentle personality couldn't help but be angry at this time, and Twilight Xiyue could think of how excessive these people were.
Chu Nanyue thought for a while: "Lord Meng's matter can be handed over to the general, and the general can solve it for Lord Meng." ”
"Thank you so much General Chu!" Meng Haoyan said happily.
Chu Nanyue did not go back to the house directly, but went to find Wang Chang, the secretary of the Ministry of War.
Wang Chang was playing chess with the eighth princess at this time, Dongling Jue made a mistake in this step, and pouted to Wang Chang: "I don't care, I should play here this step!" ”
Chu Nanyue stepped forward to take a look, this chess was broken by Dongling Jue, even if he kept regretting the chess, it was already a sure defeat.
She stepped forward directly, took the chess pieces in Dongling Jue's hand, and gave Dongling Jue a position casually.
Dongling Jue tilted his head and thought for a long time before he suddenly realized: "General Chu's trick is wonderful!" ”
"It's your turn!" Dongling Jue raised his chin to Wang Chang brutally, but Wang Chang was still good-tempered.
Dongling Jue took the initiative to give up his position to Chu Nanyue, Chu Nanyue sat down and continued to play chess with Wang Chang, Dongling Jue watched from the sidelines, and praised from time to time.
In Dongling Jue's eyes, these two people played chess like a fairy fighting, and she felt hearty when she watched it from the side.
When the son finally fell, Wang Chang glanced at the chess pieces on the board: "The lower official is willing to bow to the wind." ”
Chu Nanyue smiled, because she once remembered that the last time she played chess with Wang Chang ended in a miserable defeat, this time she was able to win thanks to the daily chess game with Tanglin Shuo in those two months.
Wang Chang ordered his subordinates to clean up the chess game, then looked at Chu Nanyue and asked, "I don't know what General Chu is doing here with me?" ”
Before Chu Nanyue could speak, he began to guess: "If Xiaguan guessed correctly, General Chu should be here for Lord Meng this time." ”
Chu Nanyue laughed and said, "I really can't hide anything from Lord Wang Chang!" ”
Wang Chang nodded slightly, and his expression was full of apologies: "It's just that General Chu's matter can't be solved by the lower officials." ”
"Oh?" Chu Nanyue raised her eyebrows and looked at Wang Chang: "Is there anything hidden in this matter?" ”
Wang Chang shook his head: "No, it's just that now Your Majesty no longer believes in the people of the Bei'an King's faction, if the people of the Bei'an King's faction reason and intercede for Lord Meng, they will become officials and officials." ”
Chu Nanyue paused as she picked up the teacup, and then naturally continued to drink tea.
"But if General Chu can find the eldest princess of Xunyang, this matter will be much easier." Wang Chang seemed to be sorry that he couldn't help Meng Haoyan, so he pointed out a way for Chu Nanyue.
The eldest princess of Xunyang? Chu Nanyue was stunned for a moment, how could she forget this person?
It's just that Meng Haoyan's matter is imminent, and now the eldest princess of Xunyang is still traveling all over the world, how can she contact her?
"King Bei'an is good friends with the eldest princess of Xunyang." Wang Chang whispered to Chu Nanyue, Chu Nanyue suddenly realized, how could she forget Dongling Shuo?
She thanked Wang Chang repeatedly, and then returned to the General's Mansion, where the current Tanglin Shuo entered and exited the General's Mansion as naturally and casually as entering and exiting her own home.
As soon as Chu Nanyue returned to the mansion, she saw Donglin Shuo sitting leisurely in the hall of her mansion drinking tea, looking leisurely.
