Chapter 749: In the Palace of Unrest
"Hurry up and bring it up, quick!"
Li Chengqian couldn't wait to speak, and behind the inner attendants, there were also several ministers from the military department, one by one, running briskly.
said that it was a fold, but in fact it was a note full of dense small characters, but in Li Chengqian's opinion, this was more important than anything else.
He greedily scanned every line, and he didn't let go of every word, for fear of missing any important information.
After reading all the information, he smiled and said happily, "Cai Cong really didn't disappoint me, he killed 90,000 people in the first battle, and the battle outside Qiuzi City defeated more than 100,000 troops, this big food is no longer to be feared." ”
Chu Yao was also happy, although she didn't say it, she was extremely worried about her brother's safety.
"Someone! Quickly invite the ministers to the Taiji Hall for discussion. ”
After Li Chengqian was happy, he commanded loudly, which made Chu Yao stunned for a moment, no matter how happy he was, he didn't have to wake people up in the middle of the night, right?
"Although your brother is victorious, it is also a tragic victory, the 150,000 army except for the garrison of Qiuzi, the maximum number of people around him is 50,000, I have to consult with the ministers on how to support him."
Li Chengqian patted Chu Yao's hand as he said and told her not to worry, and then walked towards the Taiji Hall.
Chu Yao's eyes turned red all of a sudden, she didn't understand why these men were fighting and killing all day long, wasn't it good to live a life guarding a home?
"Quickly send someone to report the safety of the old lady, and inform my sister-in-law of the news that there are only 50,000 remnants of soldiers around my brother, and ask her to coordinate and dispatch the people in the caravan to see if she can gather some people to support my eldest brother."
Chu Yao said to the eunuch beside him, and the eunuch immediately bowed down and retreated.
"Niangniang is so untrustworthy, aren't you afraid that the slave and maid will die with you?"
A gloomy voice sounded not far from Chu Yao, and his tone was full of despair and anger.
"This palace almost fell for you, but it's just to settle some poor people, and a little property in the clan can settle you, why do you need to exhaust Your Majesty's body, what are your intentions?"
Chu Yao was not afraid of such a voice, and turned around and asked sharply. To others it was the desolate cry of a demon, but to her it was the squeak of a dull rat in a stinking gutter.
"If the mother is treacherous, why should she be cowardly, but the person who betrayed us never ended well. Huh..."
Not only did the eunuch not have the slightest fear, but threatened Chu Yao. But he is also a person who is still in prison, so what is there to fear?
"Hmph, do you really think you're not afraid of death and it's over? It is not much more difficult for this palace to pinch you to death than it is to pinch an ant to death, don't challenge the patience of this palace. ”
Chu Yao frowned and said word by word, although he didn't know who the specific people were, but Chu Yao didn't take these eunuchs in his eyes at all.
"Pinch us to death? Hehehe... Niangniang, is this going to laugh at the slave to death? During the Taizong period, the palace was cleaned up three times, and His Majesty also washed the palace in blood when he ascended the throne, but it has only been less than a year, didn't the slave and maid find you? ”
The eunuch in the secret smiled presumptuously, full of disdain for Chu Yao's words, those women who were sold into the palace when they were a few years old and teenagers, and those who were castrated, were helpless when they were old, and after they were kicked out of the palace, their families didn't care, the government didn't care, those who had a little savings could still live, and those who didn't have savings either died or went into the kiln to sell skins and laughs, such a fate was much more uncomfortable than death.
"Hmph, do you really think that this palace will not dare to pull you out?"
Chu Yao Danfeng's eyes were upside down, his eyes were full of anger, in other words, ordinary people were too frightened to speak, but the eunuch was not afraid.
"There are too many weird things in this palace, not to mention it, let's say that the case of Concubine Wei's poisoning, the mastermind behind the scenes is Buddhism and slaves and maids, these things your omnipotent brother can't find out, the water in the palace is deep! Mother, don't get drowned..."
This kind of news frightened Chu Yao, this big case was a sensation back then, but he never thought that it was actually a good thing done by these slaves. Chu Yao was about to ask another question, but saw the eunuch in the corner suddenly fall to the ground, bleeding from his mouth, but he committed suicide by taking poison.
At this time, Xiao Jumper rushed over with a team of Imperial Forest Army, and after hurriedly saluting Chu Yao, he squatted down and looked at the eunuch, and then said, "It's the eunuch in charge of the imperial dining room, and immediately send someone to arrest everyone who has something to do with him." ”
After finishing speaking, he said respectfully to Chu Yao, "Let Niangniang be frightened, Your Majesty said, everything in the palace is under control, and some minions can't afford to make any waves, please rest assured." ”
"This official is not so delicate, this is the second time you have checked the palace, and this official hopes that this is the last time, otherwise you will not be the chief manager!"
"The slave and maid are guilty, please rest assured, the slave and maid must be screened again and again, and no one will be let go."
Chu Yao's fluttering words made Xiao Dianzi break out in a cold sweat with fright. How big is the place in the palace, if it is almost clean again and again, what does it mean? It shows that the master will wonder if he is also involved.
"That's the best."
Chu Yao nodded and turned around and returned to the study to continue to review the folds, otherwise when Li Chengqian came back in the middle of the night, he would not go to rest, but chose to work all night.
And Xiao Jump, who interrogated people overnight, frightened the entire palace, and some of the concubines' old grandmothers were dragged out of the bedroom and beaten directly outside the house, and for a time the whole palace was panicked.
The little eunuch who was sleeping in the house watched the people living in one room being dragged out, and he felt uneasy in his heart, and he didn't know if he would be implicated.
And some of the palace elders who have undergone several checks put on their best clothes and sit at the head of the bed and wait. They didn't know if they would be implicated, but they all knew that something big must have happened to such a big move.
And this kind of big event is always a mistake to kill, there is no incense, and the mutilated cannot bring gold, silver and jewelry, so they change into the best clothes, in case the innocent is implicated, at least when they die, they will be wrapped in a good clothes, maybe the person who pulls them to the mass grave will look at this clothes that can be exchanged for a dozen taels of silver, and dig a pit for them, so as not to end up with a place to die without a burial.
In the early morning, the palace was filled with a faint smell of blood, Li Chengqian discussed with the ministers all night, and decided to send 50,000 soldiers and horses to Suzhou and Guazhou, while Liangzhou would send 100,000 troops to Guazhou.
Li Chengqian, who had gone down from the court, was taking a walk, every step was so even, every step looked so heavy, Xiao Jumper followed behind him, and his back was soaked in cold sweat.
"This is my dwelling, what would ordinary people do if someone entered it?"
Li Chengqian suddenly asked, Xiao Dianzi couldn't pay attention to the emperor's thoughts for a while, and could only say boldly, "Ordinary people have entered the bandits, and they are desperately resisting." Call the neighbors to take the thief together, and sometimes the thief is killed, and the government will not ask. ”
"The rich people in the people's homes are only accumulating thousands of bells of grain and ten thousand taels of gold, and they are still so remembered by thieves, but I am thousands of miles away from this house, how can I not be remembered by thieves? It's just that the people's family is small and easy to deal with, and I have a big business, as the general manager, how do you think it should be governed? ”
"The slave and maid are not good at taking care of the house, please punish Your Majesty!"
Xiao Dianzi knelt on the ground all of a sudden, the last time there was turmoil in the palace, Li Chengqian gave him a chance, and now he is like this, how can he deal with himself?
"I don't blame you, I just ask you how to govern."
Li Chengqian said lightly, but he didn't tell Xiao Jumper to get up, many years of experience in serving the master told him that the master was already angry.
