Chapter 503: The Calm Salted Fish and the Rising Blood Rain

This time's intuition, Chu Yun himself didn't know if it was his intuition, or if he didn't return to the capital for too long, which caused him to not adapt psychologically.

Or maybe Zhao Gou was too enthusiastic about him, which caused him to feel uneasy?

Chu Yun analyzed it and felt that the reason why he couldn't sleep was probably like this!

Not only that, but Chu Yun had too many things in his heart.

From the past to the present, the more things he has experienced, the greater the burden on Chu Yun, in this world, he seems to be happy and chic, but in his heart, he is always insecure.

Therefore, when it was clear that Zhao Gou still trusted him very much, he cut off his arm and transferred Ye Huahua and others out of the capital, there was originally a better way to rescue Xia Ying, but he still chose to let himself and Wu Yun'er bear the responsibility.

Even, he used fishing to enforce the law and punish those soldiers, but also to reduce his prestige in their hearts.

To this extent, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was too careful.

The last thing is Xia Ying's matter, after a farewell, the end of the world has been separated from each other, the world is big, the carriage and horses are slow, and the two have never had a chance to meet since a dewy relationship.

Let's hope they don't do anything anymore.

When Chu Yun thought of this, he suddenly remembered that he really ignored something, Xia Ying was the holy daughter of the Qinglian Sect, what about the sect leader of the Qinglian Sect?

It seems that it has never appeared.

Also, doesn't Xia Ying have a master?

Thinking of this, Chu Yun had another headache.

Don't make a fuss this time, he doesn't want to toss anymore.

I fell asleep in a lot of thoughts, and when I woke up, another beautiful day began.

Wu Yun'er took the baby every day, and Chu Yun received an official reward from the imperial court.

Zhao Gou directly sent Chu Yun a gift package for adding officials to the knighthood.

gave Chu Yun a marquis, the marquis of Zhenbei.

This is Chu Shen's original title.

gave Chu Yun an official, the secretary of the military department.

This is also what Chu Shen used to do.

With the merits of Chu Yun and Wu Yun'er, the marquis or something, in fact, it is normal, to stabilize the frontier and quell the rebellion, it should be the marquis.

However, let Chu Yun directly sit in the position of the secretary of the military department, and this promotion speed is a little faster.

One of the six Shangshu in his early twenties, which has not existed since ancient times.

The reward given to Chu Yun was rich, but the reward given to Wu Yun'er was much less, and he was only given a first-class lady, gold, silver, silk and various treasures, and a lot of them, and there was no reward in the official position.

That's no way, she's already the county lord, and it's inconvenient to raise her title.

In this way, Chu Yun was already satisfied, and Wu Yun'er didn't care about this.

She joined the army to pacify the northern frontier, but she was only worried about what threat Chu Yun would encounter.

Indeed, as she feared, if there was no such powerful force as Wu Yun'er to help him in the war with Yan State, Chu Yun felt that he would at most be able to defend Yanmen Pass without losing it, and would not be able to turn the tide of the battle.

It was Wu Yun'er's decapitation actions again and again, making their battles invincible.

But it doesn't matter if there is no reward, Wu Yuner has returned to a leisurely life of taking care of her children at home.

And after Chu Yun received the appointment, he began to enter the core of the imperial court.

This speed is a little faster than Wu Jingxian.

Chu Yun has not been together with Wu Jingxian since he returned to Beijing, and now in the imperial court, the political enemies are basically purged, Zhao Gou basically controls the entire imperial court, and those who are disobedient are all inquired.

Chu Yun was even more inconvenient to get too close to Wu Jingxian.

He has already entered the cabinet, and he will naturally be one of the powerful ministers in the future, and Wu Jingxian will probably need to spend some time to serve as the secretary of the ministry, or the secretary of the household department, it is only a matter of time.

If the relationship between such two important ministers is too good, I don't know if Zhao Gou will be worried.

In the early dynasties, the main issue discussed was the suppression of the remnants of the Qinglian Sect, as well as the governance of some places.

At this level, Chu Yun naturally doesn't need to do everything himself, just give countermeasures, the pursuit and suppression of the remnants of the Qinglian Sect is going very smoothly, Yang Guang has shown a very good talent for commanding troops, with three thousand city managers, everywhere he goes, they are all obedient.

Local governance is mainly the post-disaster reconstruction of the affected areas, such as Jincheng, but this is something that the officials should worry about.

Chu Yun suddenly found that he didn't seem to have anything to do.

He is not needed in the north, and there are people watching from the Yan Kingdom. In general government affairs, there is no need for the Ministry of War to intervene. Even in the internal struggle, Chu Yun has not yet found out his political enemies.

Chu Yun, who had nothing to do, was like a salted fish.

Chu Yun suddenly found that he didn't really want to be an official, he used to look at the officials who were eyesore, but when he came back after two years, he was beaten away by Zhao Gou one by one, and Chu Yun was not given room to play.

It's too boring to live like this, so it's better to draw at home!

When Chu Yun came up with this idea, he had already gone farther and farther on the path of salted fish.

The first assistant can sit on it without a day's work, and you have to boil up some qualifications, and age is not a problem.

Now Chu Yun only has this one main quest left, and the other quests have been closed.

There will be no more new quests and no new rewards.

In this way, Chu Yun began his daily life of teasing birds and walking dogs, and went to work in the military department on time, but he was not entangled in any mundane affairs. When he was idle, he made some toys for Chu Shu, and finally let him settle down at home, and he didn't have to go to Zhao Gou every day.

In contrast, Zhao Gou is almost very busy, and all kinds of big and small things need to annoy him. Fortunately, nine cabinet ministers helped him filter it first, otherwise he would have been busier.

Day after day, three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Yang Guang completed his quest and returned to the capital, and Chu Yun had a drink with him after the reception banquet. So, the lonely salted fish became two salted fish.

Just when Chu Yun thought that he was going to continue to make soy sauce and maintain such a stable but boring life, the original first assistant, Shen Le, suddenly said goodbye to his old age and asked to return to his hometown.

This sudden change caught Chu Yun a little off guard, Shen Le, an old minister, was the first assistant when Xuande was the emperor, and when Zhao Gou became the emperor, he was still the first assistant.

It seems that he never fights with others, and he seems a little mediocre, but in fact, he handles government affairs very well, and it is precisely because he does not participate in political struggles that he can become an evergreen tree and has always been active in the political arena.

Originally, Chu Yun thought that he would have to work for a few more years, why did he suddenly have to return to his hometown?

It's just that no matter how confused Chu Yun is, Shen Le has made a decision in the end, and besides, when Chu Yun got the news, the dust had already settled.

Then, there is a very important thing now, the first assistant has stepped down, and a new first assistant must be elected. This is, of course, chosen from the original eight.

Chu Yun was in the imperial court, did not manage his own power well, and he was not very active in being an official, so that when he voted, no one voted for him, and in the end, Chu Yun gave a vote to Guo Hongzhi, the current secretary of the ministry, to help him successfully be elected as the first assistant.

There was once a position of Shoufu in front of him, but Chu Yun didn't cherish it at all, so he gave it up.

For the position of Shoufu, Chu Yun had been planning how to get it in the early years, but now when there was only one step left, Chu Yun suddenly found that he was not much interested.

In particular, if he was just a civilian at the beginning, it wouldn't matter, but it's a pity that he joined the army halfway and achieved good results, and Zhao Gou has experienced so many things.

Chu Yun was always worried about whether he would encounter a day when the birds were hiding in the bow.

Although Zhao Gou's current behavior was no different from before, Chu Yun still felt that he was not like him before.

Chu Yun still believes in his intuition.

Of course, with the position of Shoufu, Chu Yun will still be able to sit on it sooner or later, but it is still too early.

The secretary of the ministry served as the first assistant, and his position as the secretary of the ministry was naturally about to be given up. As Chu Yun expected, Zhao Gou had no scruples about employing people, and directly promoted Wu Jingxian to the position of secretary of the ministry.

Guo Hongzhi, the original secretary of the ministry, was also promoted to the position of Shangshu by Zhao Gou himself, so he was loyal to Zhao Gou.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu has been pushed down by Zhao Gou, and the new Ministry of Rites Shangshu was also promoted by Zhao Gou.

In general, several ministers of the six ministries, plus Yushi, Taifu and Shoufu, so far, more than half of them are completely loyal to Zhao Gou.

If Zhao Gou was just holding down with his violent temper and letting his decision be forcibly passed, now, what Zhao Gou says, these cabinet ministers will find a way to let it pass.

Of course, anything too absurd is not okay.

But this also means that Zhao Gou has completely gained a firm foothold.

In the court, when many officials were celebrating the promotion of the two bigwigs, Chu Yun was looking at Zhao Gou, and he was also smiling, but Chu Yun always felt that this smile was like the feeling that something had been suppressed for a long time and could finally be released now.

Seeing his smile, Chu Yun felt that something big might be happening.

The only thing Chu Yun didn't calculate was that he thought that it would take at least a few days for Zhao Gou to make trouble, but as a result, Zhao Gou began to kill the next day.

It was not someone else who was killed, but someone in the palace.

The Janissaries entered the palace and arrested a large number of eunuchs and beheaded them outside the noon gate.

Zhao Gou didn't even announce what crime they had committed, but only ordered them to be killed and let them be brutalized for ten days.

Many people are wondering if the eunuchs in the palace made something wrong that caused Long Yan to be furious, so that Zhao Gou did such a cruel thing.

Disrespect for corpses is also a very unkind sign.

Fortunately, Zhao Gou killed all eunuchs, and eunuchs are no longer human beings in the current mainstream values. They also deserved to be killed, and no one sympathized with them.

Perhaps, only Chu Yun knows the truth.

These eunuchs killed by Zhao Gou, in fact, all of them were meritorious ministers, and when the palace was in turmoil, it was these eunuchs who protected Zhao Gou and resisted the forbidden army of the three princes.

Now, none of these people are left.

Including the old Zhao Gonggong at that time, and Zhao Gao, they were among these people who were executed.

Chu Yun immediately understood, Zhao Gou, this is revenge......

Chu Yun found that he had underestimated Zhao Gou, and he was really able to bear it.

Because after ascending the throne, the foundation was still unstable, so Zhao Gou needed the help of these eunuchs very much, and some secret information was in their hands.

Therefore, Zhao Gou didn't do anything, he endured it like this for a few years, and finally, with the government in his hand, he no longer needed these secret hands.

Even if he needed to, he could have rebuilt the same organization.

When he is an emperor, there is no shortage of people.

From those who died, Zhao Gou's thoughts were inferred, and Chu Yun was inevitably a little frightened in his heart.

The current Zhao Gou is undoubtedly a qualified king, and the king's heart is not easy to be seen through.

Therefore, Chu Yun didn't see it at first that Zhao Gou still had such a deep hatred for those eunuchs.

Chu Yun only thought that he had already come out of Yan Yi's death, and he never thought that after a few years, Zhao Gou still did not hesitate to start revenge.

Those who can endure it are the most frightening.

Chu Yun had to admit that at this moment, he was a little afraid of Zhao Gou.

Accompanying a gentleman is like accompanying a tiger, this sentence, Chu Yun has always kept in mind.

Knowing the truth, Chu Yun can only act as if he doesn't know anything, just like after Xuande died, Chu Yun can only act as if he doesn't know anything.

People who know too much will die quickly. Chu Yun didn't dare to guarantee that a person who would kill even his own father would be extraordinarily indulgent to him.

Salted fish or something, is the best state.

At least if you don't die, you won't die!

If it was forced to become a salted fish because of reality before, now Chu Yun took the initiative to make himself a salted fish.

Fortunately, Zhao Gou gave him a military secretary.

This Shangshu, the matter is the least, and the status is the third from the bottom, unlike the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Industry, there are many thieves, and the status is low.

This position is really suitable for Chu Yun to use for the elderly.

A few days after Chu Yun's peace of mind, he suddenly heard the news that Lord Shang Shujiang of the former Ministry of Rites was attacked by thieves and died at home.

Dong Yong, the former secretary of the ministry, encountered bandits when he was visiting relatives and was unfortunately killed.

Former Tobe Shoshu ......

In just a few days, those old ministers who took the initiative or passively resigned all encountered all kinds of different things and were killed one after another. Some were killed by bandits on the road, some were killed by thieves at home, and some accidentally caught fire in their homes.

In short, there is only one Shen Le left who is still alive.

Chu Yun originally didn't care about this, but one incident was enough, so many collisions together, Chu Yun couldn't believe it, it was a coincidence.

There is no doubt that this is artificial.

The world has the ability to do these things, and can completely characterize them as accidents, except for Zhao Gou, Chu Yun can't think of another candidate.

If Chu Yun can still understand the killing of those eunuchs, then the death of these old ministers is completely incomprehensible to Chu Yun.

Zhao Gou, is this revenge, or is he a demon who loves to kill?
