When night fell, the lights were on, and the imperial city was brightly lit, and Adou and Ren Tianming had been in the imperial city for two days. In the past two days, the two of them finally have some understanding of the palace, and now the two of them have directly touched the imperial study.

In the small garden in front of the imperial study, behind the purple bamboo by the pond, Ren Tianming and Adou were hiding here. waited from morning to evening, and still did not wait for Chongzhen's arrival.

At this moment, there are only four guards in the garden, and six eunuchs and palace maids who are responsible for cleaning.

Ren Tianming took out the last two flatbreads from his arms, and said boringly: "Fill your stomach first, it's time for dinner, and Chongzhen will definitely not be able to come for a while." ”

Adou Yiyan took the flatbread handed over, took a bite hard, chewed it carefully, and whispered: "Legend has it that Chongzhen is very diligent, but we have been here for a day and have not seen his shadow. This rumor must be false. ”

Ren Tianming smiled and said: "Is there any inevitable connection between diligence and whether or not to come to the imperial study?" ”

Adou's eyes widened, and he said as a matter of course: "Of course it has a relationship, the imperial study, as the name suggests, is the place where Chongzhen looks at the government and reviews the folds." You say that if he was diligent in his administration, how could he not have seen him all day? ”

Ren Tianming defended with disdain: "Whoever stipulates that the emperor has to work in the imperial study, can't he suddenly change places to review and approve the folds or something." ”

Adou was choked by Ren Tianming and had nothing to say, indeed, there were no regulations, and the emperor could only deal with the government affairs in the imperial study.

While the two were discussing, suddenly a shrill voice came from outside: "The emperor has arrived." ”

"Here we are." Adou and Ren Tianming were stunned at the same time, quickly put away the unfinished bread, and then showed their respective bows and arrows.

After a while, I saw more than a dozen guards walk in first, and then stand guard on both sides of the aisle. After that, a dozen eunuchs came in, and the maids came in again, also in the aisle.

In the end, a man in a dragon robe slowly walked towards the imperial study under the arch guard of an old eunuch.

Adou has never seen the emperor, and of course he will not recognize what Chongzhen, the emperor, looks like. But there must be only one person who can wear a dragon robe in the palace, and that is the emperor.

With a bow and arrow, Adou instantly began to get excited, but soon he regained his composure. He suddenly realized that the damn guards were blocking his view.

And the same situation happened to Ren Tianming at this moment, he was also blocked by the people in the aisle, and he couldn't hit the emperor with an arrow at all.

Only less than ten meters of the aisle, Chongzhen walked in less than five breaths, and after entering the imperial study, the door closed as soon as possible.

Adou and Ren Tianming looked at each other, completely unexpectedly waiting for the opportunity, but it was wasted like this.

"What should I do?" Ren Tianming withdrew his bow and arrows and asked in a low voice in Adou's ear.

"Keep on guard, and wait for him to leave before he gets a chance. But we can't stay together any longer, you go find another hiding place, and you can't let what happened happen again. Adou hesitated for a moment and said to Ren Tianming.

The latter nodded, and without further words, looked around for a moment before proceeding. Ren Tianming's skills are indeed good, and before the guards knew it, they quickly moved to other places and ambushed them.

In the imperial study, Chongzhen sat firmly on the dragon chair, and after taking a sip of fragrant tea, he asked Wu Chengen, who was standing next to him: "The assassin who caused panic among the ministers a few days ago, has you found out?" ”

Wu Chengen bent down and said, "Your Majesty, no." Now the city is under complete martial law, and an all-out search is underway. But the Assassin had no news, as if the world had vanished, and the ministers were not attacked again. ”

Chongzhen pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "This matter can be big or small, you should be careful and strive to find out this assassin as soon as possible." If the situation is urgent, let the Jinyi guards intervene and let them investigate in secret. ”

Wu Chengen nodded again and again to show his understanding, and then said to Chongzhen again: "Your Majesty, there was a Tang newspaper sent from Governor Lu of Shaanxi just now, do you want to check it now?" ”

Chongzhen's face immediately turned straight and said, "Submit it!" ”

Wu Chengenlisuo rummaged through a large number of folds on the dragon case, and soon took out the marked Tang newspaper and handed it to Chongzhen for reference.

Chongzhen then opened it to see, it turned out that Lu Xiangsheng had gathered enough soldiers and horses, and asked him for instructions on whether to enter Henan to quell the turmoil?

Chongzhen fell into deep thought for a long time, and suddenly sighed and said: "Tell Lu Xiangsheng to stay still for the time being, just stay in the original earthquake." ”

Wu Chengen was quite surprised, hesitated for a moment, and still said: "Your Majesty, this army is assembled, if you don't act, I'm afraid that there will be no successor to the grain and grass, and I'm afraid there will be trouble after a long time." ”

The imperial court is now in dire need of grain and grass, especially in Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places, which are seriously affected. Now it is completely dependent on the imperial court to allocate food relief, and the military and civilians need the imperial court to transport food to survive in the past.

Once the help is not available, the consequences can be imagined, and at present, the imperial court has no successor, and there is a shortage of food everywhere. There were wars everywhere, and the garrisons everywhere asked the imperial court to allocate food for help.

Chongzhen doesn't know how many gray hairs and how many brain cells have died because of this, but the general trend of the world is like this, and he, the emperor, has no way.

"The army can't move, there was news at the border two days ago, and Houjin seems to have the intention of attacking again. This army was assembled to prevent Houjin, and as for the affairs in Henan, they could delay as much as possible. Chongzhen smiled helplessly.

Now that the treasury is empty, even he, the emperor, is about to eat chaff and drink dilution, where is there any surplus food to give to the armies everywhere.

"What about this rations......"

Seeing Chongzhen with a bitter face, Wu Chengen became hesitant to speak.

"Tell Lu Xiangsheng that he can go to the local officials to ask for military rations, and as for how much he can get, it all depends on his ability." Chongzhen suddenly became ruthless.

The autumn harvest had just passed, but the imperial court had not received any grain handed over, and those officials from all over the country knew that they were looking for all kinds of excuses not to pay grain. Chongzhen really doesn't believe that the disaster situation in various places will be so serious that there will be no harvest.

Wu Chengen frowned, he knew that in this way, it would definitely cause friction between Lu Xiangsheng and the local officials, and it was not impossible to even use knives and guns. In this way, if Lu Xiangsheng can't suppress those local officials, something big will definitely happen.

Wu Chengen swallowed the words back into his stomach, not daring to talk about it anymore, he was afraid that Chongzhen would be forced to do something extreme.
