Chapter 33: Seeking the Sun and the Moon (13)

Emperor Xian.

As soon as Lu Huiqing's crying voice entered his ears, Zhao Xu's eyes suddenly became hot, and he just felt that tears were about to flow out.

I can't imagine that there are still people who remember his father to this day.

Zhao Xu hadn't heard anyone mention his father for a long time, except for when he wanted to worship the Taimiao Temple or teach himself a lesson, the people around him never mentioned Emperor Xizong, as if the sixth emperor of the Great Song Dynasty didn't exist at all.

In his ears, there are only the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother.

It is the credit of the Queen Mother that the North does not dare to peep south, the Guotai Min'an is the credit of the Queen Mother, and even the smooth weather in the past few years is also the credit of the Queen Mother.

The first emperor worked diligently and ate for more than ten years, and no one mentioned the exploits of pacifying the Southern Barbarians and the Western Thieves.

Around the Queen Mother, there are all ungrateful traitors, without the first emperor to pull them out of the recklessness, where is there today's scenery?

Every time he thought of this, Zhao Xu's heart seemed to be burning.

Fortunately, there is Wang Pingzhang, who does not hesitate to make a name for himself all his life, and there is also Lu Xuanhui, who can't bear to be in love when he sees himself growing up. But these two loyal ministers are not in the capital, and the only ones who can stay in the capital are the traitors.

"Sure enough. Zhang Xianggong was right, he really started crying. ”

The voice from behind made Zhao Xu shudder. For no reason, not even a thought, his body trembled.

In Zhao Xu's memory, he hadn't heard such a voice a few times, and only when he mentioned that one of the kings, he would have such a chilling sneer.

As if the temperature behind him had dropped below freezing, Zhao Xu felt goosebumps behind his back, and his cold hairs stood up.

How deep is this prejudice against Lu Huiqing?! If it weren't for Lu Huiqing's great merit, and he had no handle and no person,

and that Zhang Dan, who was able to predict that Lu Huiqing would cry in the court.

Zhao Xu was in disbelief at first, but when he saw Zhang Dian looking at Lu Huiqing, like a cat playing with a mouse, he suddenly woke up again.

Why did Lu Huiqing cry?

It won't be entirely because of excitement, after all, he is an old minister who has been an official for decades.

The words are emotional, but after thinking about it, there is actually the intention of claiming that he is an adult, which is what he said to make himself pro-government as soon as possible. In order to say this, Lu Huiqing even did not hesitate to sacrifice her reputation, and risked being impeached by the Imperial Historical Observatory before losing her honor.

If Lu Huiqing's crying just now made Zhao Xu feel that this Xuanhui envoy, who was far away from Beijing, had a fierce loyalty that others could not match. Now that he understands the meaning of Lu Huiqing's words, Zhao Xu still has the same emotion in his heart, which is also the act of a loyal minister.

is like Wang Pingzhang of Jinling, in order to allow himself to be in power as soon as possible, in order to support himself, he pushed his granddaughter out. Who doesn't know that there was a queen in the family, and her identity changed from a scholar to a relative. Wang Anshi lost the identity of the entire family for him Zhao Xu.

What is called a loyal minister, such is. Regardless of the reputation of the body, he spared himself for the Son of Heaven.

It's a pity that Lu Huiqing's strategy was predicted by Zhang Dan.

And this is not surprising. How can a loyal and upright minister fight against those traitors? barely came up with a plan, and it was immediately seen through by others, but it became a handle.

But what next?

The Imperial Historical Observatory will definitely come out to attack Lu Huiqing's palace for failing to perform his duties, and the Queen Mother can take the opportunity to punish this loyal minister, and may even be reassigned to a place where there are many epidemics to be the governor. Lu Huiqing looks like she is in her sixties, how many years can she live if she goes like this?

Zhao Xu's heart tightened, Wang Lao Pingzhang has not much time, and if he loses another Lu Huiqing, how many loyal ministers with prestige in the court are left?

We must keep Lu Huiqing.

Zhao Xu didn't hesitate at all, and made up his mind in an instant.

If the Queen Mother wants to blame Lu Huiqing heavily, he wants to stand up and defend Lu Huiqing with righteousness and solemnity, how can remembering the first emperor be a crime?

It's a big deal to learn from Lu Huiqing, and when the palace cries for the emperor, see if the queen mother can still deal with herself?

Thinking of that scene, Zhao Xu became excited, in front of everyone, even if it was the queen mother and the prime minister, he could not disobey human feelings, he, the emperor, came forward to protect the courtiers of the previous emperor, even if it did not conform to etiquette, but it was in line with filial piety, Zhao Xu didn't believe that the Confucian master who was in the palace now could not shamelessly say that he was wrong.

With the spear of the son, the shield of the attacker. Zhao Xu's heart was hot.

Interfering with the punishment of Lu Huiqing is the first step in listening to the government. In the future, he gradually expressed his opinions on the political affairs of the court, and sooner or later gathered a large number of loyal courtiers.

The queen mother can listen to the government because of the edict of the first emperor. And the power given to her by the first emperor is just that she has the right to listen to the government, and the only one who can listen to the government and ask the government is herself. Even if the Queen Mother is unwilling to return to politics, who would dare to deprive herself of the right to ask for politics?

Zhao Xu thought about it, and saw Li Gefei, the servant in the palace, step out of the train.

"That's it!" The Queen Mother said coldly, interrupting what Li Gefei was about to say, "What does Lu Qing's family mean, I already understand." You want the government to be in charge, right? ”

What the?!

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day exploding in Zhao Xu's ears, how could the Queen Mother say that?! Lu Huiqing clearly didn't say it so clearly.

Zhao Xu looked at Lu Huiqing, and even the loyal minister was stunned, and he was stunned for a moment before he said, "...... The official family is getting older......"

"That's it!" The Empress Dowager Xiang once again interrupted the courtier's words very rudely, even if there was Su Zhang's argument, he had to make it clear, Lu Huiqing was deliberately suppressed by the Empress Dowager, and the plan ended before it was officially implemented.

"Official, what do you think?!" asked the Queen Mother abruptly Zhao Xu, who was sitting in front of her.

Zhao Xu didn't answer, his heart was already a mess, and he didn't know what to say at all.

Why didn't you punish Lu Huiqing? What does this make you say? Detached from the previous plan, Zhao Xu suddenly found that he couldn't improvise. Lacking experience, he didn't know what was the right answer to give at this time.

"Official, what do you say?!"

The Queen Mother didn't give Zhao Xu time to think, and asked more forcefully.

Zhao Xu found that he had rarely become the focus of the palace, and the eyes of the courtiers were all cast on him, and he could even feel that many of them were still reproachful. It seemed to reproach him for not immediately answering the Queen Mother's question.

'Why blame me?' Or when I don't know the truth? ’

Zhao Xu was furious, the flames were burning his internal organs, and there seemed to be magma flowing in his veins.

Countless people in the world are saying that they are sinners who kill their fathers and kings. His grandmother and uncle used this as an excuse to kill themselves.

But my father is sick in bed, who benefits the most? After the death of his father, who benefited the most?

His father died, and he was directly blamed by the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister on himself, who was only five years old at the time, saying that it was a mistake and filial piety did bad things.

Zhao Xu used to be convinced of this, but as he got older, it became more and more difficult to believe it.

Blaming the blame on a five-year-old child, is it also a shame that they have the face to say it? killed his father with a casual sentence, how can there be such a coincidence in the world? Isn't it the person who controls the Funing Hall that has the best chance and the most likelihood?

"Official, you remember what my sister said today, don't say it to others...... There is something strange about your father's death. ’

The biological mother only said this sentence in her ear, and only said it once, without a head, no brain, and no evidence, but it has been firmly engraved in Zhao Xu's heart.

At that time, in the Funing Palace, the father and the emperor were all arranged by the Queen Mother, and the dead imperial doctor was arranged by the Han Xianggong. It was the two of them who convicted themselves, and after the death of their father, it was the two of them who benefited the most in the end.

I was only a five-year-old child at the time, and I couldn't see the evils of love, but then I thought about it, they said everything, and if I was condemned in one sentence, I became a sinner who killed my father.

Zhao Xu once thought that sooner or later he would expose the truth to the world, wash away his grievances, and let the world understand who the real murderer was.

But it hasn't come yet, and the urging from the Queen Mother is something that Zhao Xu doesn't dare to ignore.

It seems that the green bamboo silk with a big mouth opens, and like a wasp showing a tail needle, in the face of the Queen Mother's questioning, Zhao Xu's lips are completely bloodless. The fists clenched and let go, and the lowered face had a resentment and hideousness that should not be present at this age.

He wanted to say that I wanted to be pro-government, but he couldn't open his mouth. When it came to his lips, it became, "The child is still young and ignorant, and he is not married, and it is not the time to be pro-government." ”

The words squeezed out from between his teeth, and the little yellow door next to him heard it and immediately conveyed it loudly. And Zhao Xu also seemed to have lost all his strength, and he was paralyzed on the throne for a while.

……………………

Zhang Dian was very sorry.

Zhao Xu's age is when he is young and vigorous, and he loves to make trouble. Now that the ministers are bullying, the possibility of losing your temper is a little higher.

As long as he dares to say a word asking the Queen Mother to remove the curtain or I want to be in charge of the government, the crime of unfilial piety can be added to his head immediately.

I didn't expect him to be so knowledgeable this time, and there was regret in Zhang Dian's eyes that couldn't be hidden. It was unexpected for the Queen Mother to ask Zhao Xu about her opinion, but if Zhao Xu lost his temper, he could be completely solved, but now, it would be a few more years to wait.

It was just in the corner of his eye that Zhang Dian found that Han Gang's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, obviously not satisfied with this result.

……………………

Han Gang still figured out the results of the election of the courtiers, rather than continuing to hang the curtain because of the emperor's own thoughts.

It's a pity that the Queen Mother's unintentional move ruined this opportunity to regain the imperial power.

Zhao Xuan and Zhao Xu, the two fathers and sons, gave him too many opportunities, otherwise there would be no important ministers to discuss politics, there would be no court push, Han Gang would only try his best to promote the progress of technology, promote the development of productive forces, and hand over the changes to the future, rather than taking the initiative to change the political system.

But I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate, in several accidents, Han Gang, who didn't want to give up the opportunity, embarked on a path that he didn't plan to take in his early years.

Now, it is impossible for him to turn back, so he can only continue to walk.

He looked at His Majesty.

No matter who the opponent is, no matter how tortuous the road ahead is, you can only continue to walk.

……………………

Lu Huiqing has returned to the post house.

But after he entered the door, there was no official who came up to flatter, which made people realize the reality of being alone.

Lu Huiqing laughed self-deprecatingly, and when the scene that happened in the hall today spread, I am afraid that the surrounding will be even more depressed.

But Lu Huiqing smiled happily,

Failed?

No, it worked.

After today's events, the gap between the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother has become deeper and deeper.

This is the foundation of his future foothold in the court.

Just wait a little longer.
