Chapter 0241 - Xiang Quan
Wu Kuang's matter finally reached Tang Yuan's ears, and when he heard the news, Tang Yuan didn't seem very excited, and everyone thought that Tang Yuan had already discovered the clues.
But when he left Zhongrao's sight, Tang Yuan suddenly broke a teacup and strode home angrily.
The crusade against the Meng family and the war against the Ximen family had just ended, and at this time there was a commotion in the court.
It's not that the emperor can't control the situation, but that His Majesty the emperor has been very busy recently, and he has a lot to do, and this emperor is a benevolent monarch who cares about the people as if he were his own children. He seemed to have forgotten a few years ago, when he saw Diao Min burning the palace.
Nature is difficult to change, nature is difficult to change, and Renjun is also due to nature.
No matter how big or small, you have to ask in person, according to the emperor only sleeps two hours a day.
The emperor was in charge of the work of the six ministries, and at this time, a group of important decision-making figures, such as Empress Dowager Cao, Prime Minister Tang Zhen, Dazhuguo Min Yue, and Cao Sheng, the general of the Shence Army, formed a new Big Four to discuss major matters behind the scenes.
Most of the affairs are decided by the Empress Dowager Cao's party, but Tang Zhen also has his own position.
Tang Zhen insisted on establishing the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the power of this Prime Minister's Mansion almost reached the level of the prime ministers of the Qin and Han dynasties, and the prime minister's power was extremely great.
The Prime Minister's Mansion can seal officials below the fifth rank except for the Shilang, and they can be sealed directly, without the approval of the emperor.
In this regard, the Empress Dowager Cao vetoed it, the Empress Dowager Cao, even if it is the prime minister's seal, must be presented to the emperor to see, and the emperor can only use it, you recommend ten each time, and you will pass five, isn't this okay?
Tang Zhen agreed.
In fact, the old man originally planned to do so in his heart, but he took a step forward, which had a little benefit, so that the Empress Dowager Cao could find the point of attack and take half a step back, so that the Empress Dowager would have face and the prime minister would get benefits. Everybody has to get through.
Min Yue and Cao Sheng are both old fritters who have been in the military and political for a long time, and everything can be seen clearly, when they should speak, when they shouldn't talk, it seems that the two Buddha statues are motionless.
At this time, Empress Dowager Cao felt comfortable, in the past, her orphans and widows had to fight with three treacherous and cunning old men, but now she only needs to fight with Tang Zhen alone, and there are two more helpers by her side. An uncle, an uncle. At this time, the power of Empress Dowager Cao's relatives had reached its peak. It's a pity that my uncle is already a little old, and it would be nice if he was ten years younger.
"I want to be a big lady!" Lin Qiao'er stood in front of Tang Yuan and reminded angrily.
As soon as Tang Yuan returned home, his mood became heavier, and he could always think of Tang Jiaqi's smile, he went out to fight by himself, forgot to arrange things at home, and didn't let his wife take refuge in Tang's house in advance, and he still lived in the northeast corner near the city wall.
Because of the serious self-blame, it strongly hit the general's heart, and the general's heart was extremely uncomfortable.
"Oh, good." Tang Yuan said indifferently.
"Why do you have this attitude? What, you're reluctant? Lin Qiao'er narrowed her eyes.
Tang Yuan sighed and said, "The eldest lady is newly dead, and the bones are not cold, do we have to discuss this issue?" She's gone, what are you fighting with her? Anyway, you're the only lady left in the family, you're not the eldest lady, what is it? ”
"That's different, the second lady becomes the eldest lady, it needs etiquette, at least gather you and my relatives and friends together, please have a meal, announce the matter, and go to the government to change the household registration, then I am the rightful eldest lady." Lin Qiaoer is more serious.
"Okay, okay, you can do these things."
"Look at your impatient look, what else can I do!"
"In the past, I handed over these things to Jia Qi."
"It's Tang Jiaqi again, your mind is full of her."
"One day husband and wife, I have been married to her for almost two years, how can I have no feelings?"
Although Lin Qiaoer is tricky and willful, she is not a stingy person, she is very sober-minded, but women are like this, they live in the world of feelings, cautious, no matter how Tang Yuan reasoned with her, in fact, he couldn't tell her heart, at this time she needed Tang Yuan to follow her words, not to reason with her.
As long as she obeys her heart, the woman will be very well-behaved, but unfortunately Tang Yuan is not in that mood.
The husband and wife quarreled, Lin Qiaoer was so angry that she cried in the house, at this time, it turned out that some of the maids in the house came to the door, and some of them had disappeared.
Usually Chen Bao and Tang Hu only stay in the barracks, and there is no war recently, Tang Hu ran to Pingkangfang again, and did not come to the eldest brother's house to sit, but Chen Bao, who often brought Nalan Xin, Liu Zhan and other brothers to the eldest brother's house to drink.
"I heard that Wu Kuang was dissatisfied with me, but I remembered that we were brothers who came out of the boot camp together, and every time we arranged tasks and rewarded and punished after the war, I treated him equally, I thought that I could influence him, but I never thought that I wanted to rebel at a critical moment. And all the brothers here have passed the test of life and death, and they are my Tang Yuan's life-passing brothers, and since then, our brothers have been blessed and shared. ”
Raising a glass and drinking, drunk, the young general howled and cried, everyone knew that he was like this because of the loss of his wife, and everyone retreated, leaving only Chen Bao alone.
I cried for a while, and stopped crying.
Chen Bao said: "The Empress Dowager decreed, let us leave our families in Luoyang City, submit action records to the household department every day, and we are not allowed to leave the city, which is no different from house arrest." But I've thought about it, after all, Luoyang is prosperous, and my mother can live in Luoyang in her lifetime, and it can be regarded as a blessing. ”
Tang Yuan said: "I think Tang Hu is also in this situation, then the two families will come to Luoyang together, I don't know which Fang City the Queen Mother will arrange for you?" ”
"Right here, Tongyuanfang." Chen Bao.
"No," Tang Yuan immediately waved his hand and said, "Through this lesson, it is impossible for me to let my family live here anymore." Although the houses here are relatively cheap, they are too dangerous. I decided to go to the queen and ask for help, and move our brother's family to the center of the city, even if I can't settle near the Luo River, and I can't cling to the city wall. ”
Chen Bao nodded yes.
As soon as Tang Yuan was idle at home, he received an order that His Majesty the Emperor asked him to take charge of the affairs of the Meng family, make written materials as soon as possible, and put forward his own opinions.
At the same time, Prime Minister Feng is also anxious about his staff, and Tang Yuan is one of the targets to compete for.
The emperor and the prime minister competed for Tang Yuan, Tang Yuan made a difficulty, he decided to go to see Tang Qi as soon as possible, and came to the palace to find the queen on the grounds of changing his home address.
