Luoyang City seems to have changed suddenly, and the words that needed to be avoided in the streets and alleys were suddenly abolished by the emperor.

Emperor Zhide said that except for the name of the ruling emperor who needs to be avoided, there is no need to avoid anything else, so that you can always see the false and wrong when you go to the street, which makes people feel unhappy.

The emperor's reform plans are one after another, and it is said that they are all from the hands of the emperor and several of his capable ministers, and the emperor intends to open a civil and military enke this year and recruit a large number of talented people from the people.

After Empress Dowager Cao relieved her military power, she gave people the feeling that a new emperor had only ascended the throne, and Luoyang City presented a thriving and beautiful scene.

Although life seems to have become a lot more relaxed for the people, but for those officials who live in a turbulent environment, they are worried, and they don't know when the emperor will put the guillotine knife on his neck.

In the face of government affairs, Zhao Ce has some opinions, if he encounters difficult things and can't make up his mind, there are Wu Yinyin, Cheng Daren, Tang Chu'an, and Huang Gonggong around him to help him give advice.

But in the face of the army, he was still a little uncertain, and often listened to the advice of Queen Tang Qi.

After getting the queen's suggestion, and then to move the army, I always feel that there is a backbone, now there are only ten divisions left in the Xuanjia Army, and the Emperor Zhide intends to reorganize the Xuanjia Army general school system, led by the great Sima Zhang Yunlong, select talents, and appoint them according to their talents.

Zhang Yunlong made a drastic move, first changing the number, and then cleaning up a large number of Zhonglang general-level officers, leaving only 10,000 people in Luoyang City, and the rest of the troops scattered to Luoyang Baguan and Tongguan to ensure the most basic garrison force in Gyeonggi.

This large-scale appointment and dismissal actually affected the royalist heroes Zhang Zhikui, Wan Lin, and Huang Ying, who were not only not promoted, but were deprived of military power.

"Could it be that Zhao Ce wants to unload the mill and kill the donkey?" Huang Ying said indignantly.

Zhang Zhikui's face was expressionless.

Wan Lin said with a cold face: "I don't think so, if the emperor moves us this time, then if something happens in the future, who will come forward to help him?" He was so ruthless to the rebels that he completely lost his credibility. ”

Zhang Zhikui raised his eyes and looked at Huang Ying Wanlin, and said: "We have been deprived of military power, but we have not been stripped of our military ranks, could this be a hint from the emperor and Zhang Yunlong to us?" ”

"What hint?" Huang Ying wondered.

"Let's fuck off." Wan Lin said.

Zhang Zhikui waved his hand: "You can't say it so ugly." After all, the Xuanjia Army is the old capital of the Zhao family, and there is no room for a little sand to be mixed in. In the past, the three of us were able to get in, it was because there were many Xuanjia soldiers and they didn't care about our 30,000 people, but now it's different, the three of us have made great achievements, you say, how to reward us? Let's be an officer of the Xuanjia Army? Even if the emperor can trust us, Zhang Yunlong will not let us meddle in the affairs of the commandery. ”

Wan Lin nodded and said, "Yes, the Xuanjia Army is the foundation of the royal family." Especially this time, the betrayal of Cao Sheng, the pillar of the Xuanjia Army, almost killed the emperor, and he will be more careful in the appointment of the generals of the Xuanjia Army in the future. ”

Zhang Zhikui sighed: "The reason why Cao Sheng didn't kill the emperor and the queen mother together, he was still afraid of the Tang clan's gate lords, so he simply supported the emperor to overthrow the queen mother, broke away from the Xuanjia army, and obtained the Huainan region, and since then he has become a big warlord on the separatist side, and the Cao family has completely stood up." ”

Wan Lin smiled bitterly: "Let's take the topic away again, just now you said that the emperor and Zhang Yunlong hinted at us, what did they imply us?" ”

Zhang Zhikui suddenly smiled ashamedly: "There have been too many things that have happened recently, and they have confused my brain." Let's talk about serious things, I think we should take the initiative to find the emperor now. ”

"What for?" Huang Ying was taken aback: "Do you want credit from the emperor?" ”

"Don't interrupt." Wan Lin pushed Huang Ying.

Zhang Zhikui snorted lightly: "Just listen to your tone, you also think that it is unreliable to go to the emperor to take credit." But we can be flexible. The emperor is reluctant to reward us because it is difficult to seal in the Xuanjia Army sequence, but what if we leave the Xuanjia Army sequence? ”

"Oh?" Wan Lin suddenly realized, patted his head and said, "It's a way." We don't have to be promoted, as long as the emperor recognizes us as his people and keeps our original official position. ”

Huang Ying sighed and said, "But where can we go now?" ”

Zhang Zhikui said: "Flying Tiger Army." Our hometown. ”

——

Cining Palace.

"Report to the Queen Mother, it is rumored that Tang Yuan hired a killer to break into the prison and assassinate Ju Wusheng, Su Beiqin, Zhao Guangli, and Zhao Guangxu, and now the bodies of the four generals are still lying in the prison, the queen asked me to ask the Queen Mother, do you have any special arrangements, if not, you will directly pull it out and bury it."

As soon as Gonggong Huang killed the eunuch Kong Jingzhong, who was the palm seal of Si Li, he immediately sent Xiao Lizi to the Queen Mother to inquire about this matter.

After saying these words, the corners of Empress Dowager Cao's mouth twitched with anger.

When the queen mother was in power, she saw that Huang Gonggong was loyal to the emperor, so she was reluctant to move him, but now that the queen mother has lost power, this dog slave actually climbed to the top of the queen mother's head, and deliberately used the queen to press the queen mother, which is simply overturned.

It is rumored that Tang Yuan hired a killer to break into the prison and assassinate Ju Wusheng, Su Beiqin, Zhao Guangli, and Zhao Guangxu. That sounds like a pretty bad thing.

Tang Yuan was not a fool, how could he do such a stupid thing?

To deceive the Queen Mother with such crude rumors, it is better to say directly to the Queen Mother, "I have killed all your old departments", which will be more painful and happy.

"Did the queen tell you to tell me these words?" Empress Dowager Cao sat up straight.

Now there are only three minions around her, one is Liwantang, and the other two are palace maids sent by the queen. As soon as these two palace maids came to Cining Palace, they explained that they were good at martial arts and deliberately protected the safety of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother ignored these nonsense words used to coax children, as if now, she didn't even ask Tang Yuan why she wanted to kill these four people.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother just handed over this matter to me, and didn't specifically explain how I would speak." Xiao Lizi said in an arrogant tone.

"Okay, what a dog minion." Empress Dowager Cao's eyes became gloomy, and she called out in a deep voice: "Plough Wantang." ”

"In!" Plough Wantang said respectfully.

"Kill him!" Empress Dowager Cao gritted her teeth and said.

The old mink temple shook his body and had already come behind Xiao Lizi, and before Xiao Lizi could say another word, his hook-like hand had already broken his neck.

Mrs. Cao slowly stood up expressionlessly, flicked her long sleeves, and said: "It's just that the master bullies me, the slave still dares to bully me, the dog fights the powerful thing, if I can't even cure a minion in Cao Fadi, what's the point of me living?" Plough Wantang, I give you a task, if there is really such a day, I can't even cure the slave, don't hesitate, just kill me. If I die at your hands, I will kill myself for glory. ”
