Chapter 504: An Iris
Chu Yun felt that Zhao Gou was already a madman, a long time ago, he thought that if Zhao Gou became an emperor, he would be a benevolent king, but after going through so many things, Chu Yun was worried that Zhao Gou would turn black.
But later, Zhao Gou cried bitterly in front of Chu Yun, ignoring the image of the king, at that moment, although the worries in Chu Yun's heart were not completely dissipated, he believed Zhao Gou.
It is difficult for Chu Yun to trust a person, he is naturally suspicious and insecure, even so, he still chose to trust Zhao Gou once. Zhao Gou's performance after that did not disappoint him.
Zhao Gou gave him enough support and trust, if it weren't for Zhao Gou's golden order, Chu Yun would not have been able to mobilize the army at the border pass, and he wouldn't be able to do the things he did later, so Chu Yun's merits must be counted as Zhao Gou's knowledge.
However, when Chu Yun thought about it now, he only felt a little afraid.
It's not that Zhao Gou didn't blacken, he hid his blackness, and Chu Yun didn't see through it.
Now the overall situation is under Zhao Gou's control, so he can be unscrupulous.
Starting from killing those eunuchs who had helped him win the throne, the ministers who were once unsatisfactory to him could not escape one by one.
Indeed, Chu Yun did not have any evidence in his hand to prove that these things were done by Zhao Gou, but there were many things in this world that did not need evidence, and it was useless to have evidence.
It was impossible for Chu Yun to clearly investigate the truth after the death of those ministers, even if he found evidence, could he put it in front of Zhao Gou?
Impossible.
Chu Yun had a great headache right now.
Zhao Gou's approach is said in the past, but it can't be hidden from those who have a heart.
There are not many fools who are officials in the court, and even if there is a fig leaf to stop them, the ministers will inevitably have chills on their backs. In the future, who will dare to disobey Zhao Gou's words?
This was the last thing Chu Yun wanted to see.
When the monarchy loses checks and balances, the emperor can easily become a tyrant, because no one can disobey the decisions he makes in his personal mood.
What can Chu Yun do?
There were two paths before him.
One, continue to play stupid, pretending not to know anything, when his salted fish. Anyway, no matter how crazy Zhao Gou is, he won't kill him.
The second is admonition.
went directly to Zhao Gou, and Chen said the stakes. In this way, I don't know if I can wake up Zhao Gou, but once the awakening fails, Chu Yun will definitely leave a bad impression on Zhao Gou.
Possibly, it's impossible to say if it will really turn around this time.
In the end, Chu Yun still chose the second path.
He also understood why so many ministers in ancient times had to ask the king for advice even if they were not killed. Don't they know that if they go, they might really die? However, someone has to do this kind of thing.
Otherwise, this detour, the king will keep going.
Chu Yun made a decision, and went straight to the palace, a cabinet boss like him, if he wants to enter the palace, of course he can apply by himself, and he waited at the palace gate for a long time before he got the feedback of the eunuch.
"Lord Chu, Your Majesty is now dealing with something important, in order to avoid the boredom of the adults waiting for a long time, I specially ordered the slave maid to take Lord Chu for a walk and take a walk."
The little eunuch said to Chu Yun respectfully, Chu Yun nodded, and let the little eunuch lead the way.
He can walk in the imperial garden, but in the palace, he knows that the road can't be run around.
Now it's April again, and the flowers in the imperial garden are vibrant, purple and red, very good-looking, and from a distance, Chu Yun can smell the smell of all kinds of flowers mixed together, which is so strong that it makes him a little uncomfortable.
Probably because he didn't have the mood to enjoy the flowers, he even hated the fragrance of flowers. He was still rehearsing what he was going to say to Zhao Gou next.
Of course, it is not too explicit to persuade Zhao Gou not to do anything to the old minister, this kind of thing without evidence cannot be confessed, and can only be knocked on the side.
Zhao Gou, who has done these things, should understand it very well.
After thinking about it, he heard the little eunuch say: "See Concubine Xian Niangniang." β
Chu Yun was interrupted by this voice, and when he looked up, he saw Lu Xiaoxiao looking at them, followed by a number of palace maids.
It seems that Lu Xiaoxiao is idle, and he also came to enjoy the flowers.
Chu Yun also gave a salute and said, "I've seen Concubine Xian." β
Lu Xiaoxiao said very coldly: "Lord Chu doesn't need to be polite. β
Feeling the rustiness deliberately created by Lu Xiaoxiao, Chu Yun suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer.
used to be a little sister, so clever and lively, with a brutal personality, I never thought about it, but now she has become a cold beauty.
Time can really change everything, Chu Yun was a little sentimental, and wanted to find some topics to catch up with Lu Xiaoxiao, and he thought about it, this is a harem after all, Lu Xiaoxiao is already Zhao Gou's concubine, and Chu Yun naturally has to worry about it.
It is true that he has a good relationship with Zhao Gou, but the distance from the women in the harem must be controlled.
Chu Yun said: "Since Niangniang is here to enjoy the flowers, then Weichen will not disturb Niangniang Yaxing." β
Traveling together to enjoy the flowers or something, even if there are so many people watching, it is extremely inappropriate.
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard this, he wanted to stop talking, as if he wanted to keep Chu Yun, but he didn't know what to say to Chu Yun, so he could only give up, Chu Yun was about to leave, but he heard a somewhat lively voice, and said, "Sister, this iris is so beautiful!" β
As she spoke, the woman stretched out her hand to a small blue-purple flower that bloomed among the flowers.
"Stop!"
Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly shouted, so frightened that the woman's hand shrank, and looked at Lu Xiaoxiao with an aggrieved face.
This woman is Gu Shiyin, who entered the palace as a concubine with Lu Xiaoxiao. This Gu Shiyin is really too much of a natural, and she has no worries when she enters the palace, she has no scheming, because she has known Lu Xiaoxiao since she first met, and after entering the palace, she is even more commensurate with Lu Xiaoxiao's sisters.
She wasn't worried at all that Lu Xiaoxiao was calculating her, if Lu Xiaoxiao really had a heart, Gu Shiyin's few lives would not be enough to die.
This is probably a fool who is a fool!
It is said that once you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, but there are only two concubines in the palace, Lu Xiaoxiao and Gu Shiyin, who have no desires and no desires, and they can't make a fuss.
Lu Xiaoxiao is actually very envious of Gu Shiyin, and it is precisely because Gu Shiyin is so stupid and naΓ―ve that Lu Xiaoxiao takes care of her so much that Gu Shiyin becomes more and more dependent on Lu Xiaoxiao.
Lu Xiaoxiao is like this, this is the first time. It's no wonder that Gu Shiyin looked panicked, her eyes blinked, and she looked like she wanted to cry.
Lu Xiaoxiao didn't coax her as usual, but said sharply: "When acting in the palace, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, there are some things that cannot be touched!" Watch out for your life! β
Gu Shiyin's eyes were teary, but she still nodded and said, "I know, sister, don't be angry." β
Chu Yun saw all this in his eyes, and suddenly felt that Lu Xiaoxiao was making a fuss, this imperial garden is so big, what can it be to pick a flower?
Moreover, this woman's name is Sister Lu Xiaoxiao, and Chu Yun can know that she is another concubine in the legend if she doesn't open her insight technique.
Does a princess have to be counted like this when she picks a flower?
Looking at Gu Shiyin's cute face, Chu Yun almost couldn't help but want to lecture Lu Xiaoxiao. However, Chu Yun is not a mouthful of many tongues in the end, not to mention, the affairs in the harem are not allowed to be beaked by him.
So, just forget it in your eyes, don't talk nonsense.
was moved by Gu Shiyin's cuteness, not only Chu Yun, but Lu Xiaoxiao himself, seeing Gu Shiyin's pitiful appearance, Lu Xiaoxiao still softened his heart, and sighed: "I'm not angry, I'm worried about you, don't be so reckless in the future, specially, this irise, you must not move." β
When he heard this, Chu Yun had already walked some distance, but he had good ears and could hear Lu Xiaoxiao's words clearly.
I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart, the relationship between Lu Xiaoxiao and Gu Shiyin didn't look very bad, and with Chu Yun's understanding of Lu Xiaoxiao, although she was a little rude and willful, she was a kind woman by nature.
It shouldn't be a bully.
These are just an episode, Chu Yun can't play the imperial garden, so he simply asked the little eunuch to take him to the imperial study, even if he waits outside.
The little eunuch obeyed the order, and took Chu Yun to the outside of the imperial study, and was about to wait quietly, when he saw Wu Jingxian's angry face, he walked out of the imperial study. Chu Yun then greeted him and asked, "Master Wu, what's wrong?" β
Wu Jingxian glanced at Chu Yun deeply and said, "Are you also here to see Your Majesty?" I hope you can convince him. β
After saying that, he turned his head and left, Chu Yun told him to stop, but he didn't even look back.
Senior Brother Wu is still Senior Brother Wu back then, and he will still do very upright things for what he insists on. Obviously, his anger was not made after going out, if he didn't expect it wrong, he should have given Zhao Gou a look.
Senior Brother Wu, he really has courage.
The timing of Chu Yun's arrival was just right, and as soon as the little eunuch reported, it happened that Zhao Gou had nothing else to do, so he hurriedly summoned Chu Yun to meet him.
Chu Yun still performed the courtesy of the monarch and the minister as usual, and then said: "Weichen has something today, and I want to ask Your Majesty for advice." β
When Zhao Gou heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "You can still ask me for advice, I haven't forgotten, you have always taught me a lot of things." β
Chu Yun hurriedly said that he didn't dare to dare, he did teach Zhao Gou a lot of things, but those couldn't be made public, and Chu Yun was not the prince's master, of course he wouldn't recognize this.
Zhao Gou shook his head and said: "You are really boring, I just want to tell you, if you have something to say, you can say it directly, there is no need to beat around the bush, in case I don't understand, wouldn't you flatter and throw it to the blind?" β
Chu Yun couldn't help but be embarrassed, Zhao Gou is much smarter now!
It's just that what Chu Yun wants to say naturally can't be said directly, and now that Zhao Gou doesn't give him a chance to tell the story, Chu Yun has no choice but to knock on the side and hint at Zhao Gou.
He opened his mouth and said: "Today, the minister suddenly heard that the old ministers who resigned from the original Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household Affairs have encountered misfortune, and the ministers think, is this the remnants of the Qinglian Sect still attacking those old ministers?" β
Chu Yun didn't hesitate to throw the pot on Xia Ying's Qinglian Sect, it was already black anyway, and it didn't matter much if he carried the pot.
When Zhao Gou heard this, he was puzzled: "Why do you say that?" What good can the Qinglian Sect do by doing this kind of thing? β
Chu Yun replied: "Your Majesty doesn't know, this may be their conspiracy, those old ministers were killed one after another, and the ministers who are still in the temple are afraid that they will also worry about whether they will have the same consequences if they sue for old age in the future." When people are panicked, it is easy to make big trouble. β
This paragraph is what Chu Yun really wants to say to Zhao Gou, he just wants to tell Zhao Gou that if you kill too many people, you will frighten others.
Zhao thought about it for a long time before he looked at Chu Yun deeply and said, "It's me who is negligent, Chu Yun, you can always have insight into the world and be far-sighted, which is really admirable." β
"Your Majesty has won the prize."
Chu Yun still remained humble, he felt that Zhao Gou also seemed to have something to say, and it was inevitable that he was a little uneasy in his heart.
He was hinting at Zhao Gou, so Zhao Gou understood, did he hint at him in turn?
Chu Yun's hint was actually obvious, it was just a fig leaf covered by Zhao Gou, if Zhao Gou understood it, he would naturally know what Chu Yun meant.
In contrast, his hints were a little foggy, and the information given was not very clear, so that Chu Yun wondered if it was Zhao Gou who didn't have any hints at all, but he just thought too much.
Zhao Gou added: "I will let the shadow investigate carefully, and in the future, the old minister who will return to his hometown will also be protected by the shadow, and I promise that this kind of thing will never happen again in the future." β
In this way, Chu Yun understood that this was Zhao Gou's guarantee that he would not mess around again.
It should be this meaning, Chu Yun felt that he should not misinterpret it.
The process was still relatively smooth, and Zhao Gou accepted Chu Yun's opinion so quickly, but the draft that Chu Yun had prepared for a long time did not come in handy.
I don't know what Wu Jingxian did, didn't he put out the facts and reason, and finally found that he couldn't talk about Zhao Gou, so he left angrily?
But Chu Yun couldn't help but suspect that Zhao Gou knew the harm of his simple few words, wouldn't Wu Jingxian think of this?
Isn't it, is there something else?
Chu Yun thought to himself.
Zhao Gou smiled and said to Chu Yun: "By the way, you just came from the Imperial Garden!" β
Chu Yun responded: "Yes." β
"Then have you admired the flowers in the Imperial Garden, do you think they are better?"
Zhao Gou suddenly began to chat with Chu Yun, this was no longer a conversation between monarchs and ministers, but like a proud gardener, sharing his masterpiece.
Chu Yun actually didn't appreciate the flowers carefully, this Zhao Gou asked, Chu Yun recalled what Gu Shiyin said, and replied casually: "The flowers in the imperial garden are all very beautiful, and the iris is even more brilliant." β
When Zhao Gou heard this, he laughed and said, "You must not guess, that iris was planted by me myself." β
"Well, yes, Your Majesty has a good Yaxing."
Chu Yun still had a smile on his face, but he ...... in his heart
Thinking about the conversation between Lu Xiaoxiao and Gu Shiyin just now, how could he laugh?
