Chapter 401: Suspicion

Only then did the emperor put his mind at ease, and his suspicion of King Beijing was a little less. But he was still not at ease, and instructed Liu Yu: "You go to the Beijing Palace's Mansion today, and let Shui Rong pack up immediately." Don't delay the affairs of the court any longer, otherwise I will severely punish you. ”

Liu Yu also thinks that this time is soluble, too quiet, it's time to let him move, if not, he should whip a few times. Otherwise, he really thought that the emperor was a mud pinch.

The emperor criticized Liu Yu's recital for a few more words, and then said to Liu Yu: "Take it back and show that Jia Ke, I want him to die of this heart." He didn't want to do much in government affairs. ”

After Liu Yu took the fold, he kowtowed to the emperor and left.

After Liu Yu left, the emperor began to be melancholy again, and Tianye, the imperial historian of the left capital, could be regarded as loyal to him, why did he change now. Is it possible that someone else will betray him as well?

The emperor looked at Liu Yu's distant back with displeasure, Liu Yu had always been his confidant and a participant in almost all of his strategies. If he also betrayed, then he would have no room to fight back. That must not be allowed to happen.

"Xia Shouzhong." The Emperor snorted.

Xia Shouzhong, who was next to him, hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Long live Lord, the slave is here, what do you command?" ”

"Are there any of our people in Liu Yu's mansion?"

Xia Shouzhong was stunned immediately when he heard the emperor ask, who is Liu Yu? That is the henchman of the emperor's henchmen, and the emperor is asking so now, could it be that he is also suspicious?

If even Liu Yu doubted it, then which of these people under the emperor was clean?

"Long live Lord, there are no people from us in Lord Liu's mansion. If the Lord needs it, the slave will arrange it. Although Xia Shouzhong felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, after all, Liu Yu's loyalty to the emperor was also clear to him. The emperor now even has him under surveillance, and it's chilling to think about it. Could it be that there is also an emperor next to him?

"Since there is no one in his house, let's arrange a few, the situation is not good now, in case someone wants to be unfavorable to him, we can also have an arrangement." The emperor said this sentence in a high-sounding manner, as if he was really thinking about Liu Yu.

Xia Shouzhong didn't dare to refute, and said in a loud voice: "Long live Lord Shengming, why didn't the slave think of it?" It seems that without the Long Live Lord, the slave is just a little eunuch who is nothing. ”

The emperor who said this sentence was full of smiles, this Xia Shouzhong has always been so good at talking by his side, as long as he is there from childhood to adulthood, he has no troubles.

"Okay, don't say these things, you think I don't know, you're making me happy, you can't do this again in the future." Although the emperor said this, the smile on his face never diminished.

"Long live the slave knows that he is wrong, this little trick of the slave, where can he hide it from the eyes of the long live master." Xia Shouzhong said with a smile.

"As I said in a joke, let's get down to business, you write the decree of appointment, and send it to the Criminal Department in a moment. It's better to let this Sun Yan go to the military aircraft department tomorrow to report. Liu Yu is still a little lonely, and he has to find a helper for him. ”

After the emperor said this, he couldn't help but think of Zuodu Yushi Tianye again, and now if it is the person who makes the emperor hate the most. Jia Ke should be ranked first, and Zuodu Yushi Tianye must be second.

After listening to the emperor's words, Xia Shouzhong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Long live the lord, do you need to send this holy decree to the military aircraft, let them also use the stamp to draft." ”

This has always been the rule of this dynasty, when there was a study, the emperor's decree had to be drafted by the ministers of the study, and then the emperor was too constrained by the emperor's power because of the study. Therefore, the upper study room was removed and changed to the Military Aircraft Department.

At the beginning, the Military Aircraft Department was just the emperor's secretariat, but later the Emperor Taishang abdicated, and the current emperor took over, and the Emperor Taishang gave the Military Aircraft Department the power to draft votes. used to check and balance the emperor, how could I think that now I want to take back this right, and the emperor and the emperor don't have the courage to do so.

The emperor was still talking and laughing, but now when he heard Xia Shouzhong's question, he immediately gritted his teeth. Now he has to go through Jia Ke's consent even to issue a holy decree, this emperor is really a wretch.

But now I can't lose a big thing with a small one, and now I am patiently waiting for him to take back his power, and I am settling accounts with these rebellious ministers and thieves.

So the emperor endured his anger and said to Xia Shouzhong: "Let's follow the rules, you write a holy decree and send it to the military aircraft, let them vote, and then go to the criminal department to pass the decree in person." ”

After the emperor said this, he was not in the mood to laugh, so he opened a few copies and looked at them. As a result, the more I watched it, the more annoying it became, and in the end I couldn't stand it anymore, so I didn't care about the folds on the table with a swing of the sleeves of my robe, and went straight back to the harem.

However, he said that the emperor had just left the Dongnuan Pavilion, and on the way back to the harem, he was becoming more and more uneasy about the ministers under his command.

At the same time, he also had doubts about Xia Shouzhong, who controlled his secret guard, this Xia Shouzhong's power was too great, if this person had a different heart, his net worth and life could not be saved.

After thinking about it, the emperor felt that he should find someone to balance Xia Shouzhong, so that he could also balance the spy forces under his command.

The emperor thought of this and made up his mind, and he suddenly said to the little eunuch who was following him: "Xiao Cui, how many years have you been with me?" ”

When the little eunuch next to him heard the emperor's question, he hurriedly walked a few steps, came behind the emperor, and said respectfully: "Back to the words of the Long Live Lord, the slave has been with the Long Live Lord for more than seven years, and when His Majesty is in the palace, the slave is waiting for the Long Live Lord." ”

"Well, it's been a long time, it's time to go out and practice, I'm planning to let you go to Xia Shouzhong's place and have an errand."

The little eunuch was stunned for a moment when he heard the emperor's words, and then he was overjoyed, knowing that each of these eunuchs was in charge of real power. If he really went to Xia Shouzhong, he would be able to survive it.

"Minion, Xie Wansui Ye promoted, no matter where the minion goes, it is Banzai's dog everywhere, as long as it is called by Banzai Ye, the minion will appear immediately."

After hearing this, the emperor nodded loyally for a while, "You must be cautious when you go there, and you can't take Xia Shouzhong lightly, and report anything to me immediately." ”

After listening to the emperor's words, this eunuch Cui was already so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat. He originally thought that the emperor was going to promote himself, but looking at the current situation, he asked himself to spy on Xia Shouzhong.

This eunuch Cui is just one of the more clever eunuchs around the emperor, and his understanding of Xia Shouzhong is very thorough. This person is cautious in front of the emperor, but he does not have any mercy for those under him, and if there is a slight mistake, it is a great punishment.

If you let Xia Shouzhong know that you will not end well, you may not end well, and you will even affect your relatives.

And the emperor had already seen his concerns, and the two of them were determined to monitor Xia Shouzhong, and then said, "What are you afraid of? Isn't it that you're afraid that Xia Shouzhong will be bad for you? If you do this, you can rest assured, with me, this minion can still turn against the sky? ”

Although this little eunuch Cui was assured by the emperor, he didn't take this sentence seriously in his heart, you know, compared with Xia Shouzhong, he is not a fart.

But since the emperor had already said this, his little eunuch could not hesitate any longer.

"Long live the Lord rest assured, the slave went to the secret guard, and he must work hard to serve the Long Live Lord, and give the secret guard to the Long Live Lord."

The emperor saw that he had understood, so he nodded, and said nothing more.

Besides, Liu Yu took the recital approved by the emperor and returned to the military aircraft. As soon as he returned to the military plane, he came to Jia Ke. Then he held the music fold in his hand in front of Jia Ke's eyes and said: "Lord Jia, I have already sent this music fold to the emperor and let the emperor see it." Now that the emperor has approved it, please take a look at it. ”

Jia Ke didn't need to look at it to know what the content was, but it was still fake, and he took the fold. After a closer look, as he expected, the candidate for the Minister of Military Aircraft was Sun Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Jia Ke immediately said in a strange manner: "Sure enough, Lord Liu is very capable, and he will decide the candidate for the Minister of Military Aircraft with a word, and I, the Minister of Military Aircraft Foreman, am afraid that it is just an ornament." Otherwise, Lord Liu will sit in this position, and I will abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

Liu Yu couldn't wait for Jia Ke to get out of the house immediately, so that he would save a lot of trouble, and the emperor would not worry day and night.

But he didn't dare to say this on his face, so he said to Jia Ke with a smirk on his face: "What did Master Jia say?" This military aircraft department still needs to be controlled by Lord Jia, and we people are just helping Lord Jia deal with things. ”

Jia Ke saw the smirk on Liu Yu's face, smiled, didn't know if it was okay, and finally read the emperor's approval again, and then said: "Since the emperor has decided, then bring the holy decree." I'll take a look at it again, and there is no problem, and our military aircraft department can also use the seal. ”

Liu Yu reacted immediately when he heard it, the emperor's holy decree, if there is no consent from the Military Aircraft Department, it cannot be called a holy decree, it can only be called an edict.

Liu Yu hurriedly remedied: "The emperor hasn't written the holy decree yet, so I'll go and take a look again." Then take it to Lord Jia to see. ”

As soon as Liu Yu finished saying this, he didn't hear anyone outside the military aircraft department, "Lord Liu, you were in too much of a hurry to leave just now." I left in a hurry before I could write the holy decree, isn't the emperor afraid that you will make a mistake? Let me personally bring you the decree. ”

With that, this person lifted the curtain and entered the military plane.

Everyone saw that it turned out to be the emperor's personal eunuch, Xia Shouzhong, the head of the six palaces.

Jia Ke watched Xia Shouzhong come in and smiled, these two people really cooperated tacitly.

Xia Shouzhong entered the military aircraft with the holy decree, first came to Jia Ke, and said respectfully: "Lord Jia, this is the emperor's holy decree sent to you, and the emperor's will let the military aircraft department hurry up." ”

Jia Ke stood up with a smile on his face, took the holy decree, opened it and took a closer look, and sure enough, it was an edict promoting Sun Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, to the minister of military aircraft.

There was nothing to say about this, so he directly handed the holy decree to the other two ministers of military aircraft, "You two also take a look, if there is nothing wrong, use the seal." ”

Old Meng Ming first walked over and took a look at the holy decree, and found that there was nothing wrong. Then nodded, "Lord Jia's holy decree is nothing, how to decide is still Lord Jia's decision." ”
