Chapter 33: Seeking the Sun and the Moon (Part I)

"That's what the mother said?!"

Zhao Xu stood up abruptly. But immediately sat back and looked nervously at the door of the water pavilion.

"What are you afraid of, you and my mother and son say something considerate, who dares to disturb and kill something."

Concubine Zhu's phoenix eyes were raised, her eyes swept in front of the door, and she had just cleared Zhao Xu's side, but no one dared to stand up.

Ten years ago, she was famous in the palace for her beauty, and now her color has not changed, and she can't see the traces left by the years on her face, but her sharp expression adds a ruthlessness to her complexion.

Zhao Xu's nervous expression did not subside much, and he smiled reluctantly, "Mother, Mother really said that?" ”

"Idiot, if you're not sure, how can my mother tell you?"

In the past two years, although the closeness around him has been wiped out, and there are people in the Baoci Palace on the left and right, no matter how ruthless the Empress Dowager Xiang is, it is impossible to dispose of the biological mother of the Son of Heaven together.

As long as there is such a gap, Zhao Xu's ears and eyes will not be closed in the palace city.

"But if the mother does this, it is not necessarily for the child to be in charge."

"The official family, if you become a parent, you are an adult. If you become a person, can you still not be pro-government? ”

Zhao Xu didn't dare to be so naΓ―ve: "After Emperor Renzong got married, he didn't be able to govern himself. ”

"There are also the saints and your grandfather."

"But Han Gang and Zhang Dian colluded with each other, and there was no Han Qi in the court."

Concubine Zhu reached out and touched Zhao Xu's head, a few years ago, she was still shaved bald, leaving only a few small horns, but now she has grown her hair, and the more she looks at it, the more she looks like an adult.

"My mother is a woman, but I also know that there are not only those who have the power to rape in the world, but also those who are reprimanded. The official family is the desire of the people, and those prime ministers can't stop it. ”

Seeing that Zhao Xu was still frowning, she sighed in her heart, "Mother knows that you are worried about Baoci Palace, if she dares to do anything to the official family, her mother will not look at it, she can always make a fuss, see if she can still give her mother to ......" Concubine Zhu's voice slammed suddenly, hid her sharp expression, and replaced it with a serious tone, "The official family must study well, don't live up to the queen mother's hard work!" ”

A chamberlain in his forties appeared in front of the door, with thick eyebrows and thin eyes, and a nose hook like a falcon.

Concubine Zhu stood up under his gaze, gave some earnest advice, and then moved lightly and left under the support of a group of palace people.

Facing the back of his biological mother, Zhao Xu slowly bent over: "Little lady walks slowly." ”

Standing up again, Zhao Xu didn't have any expectations in his heart.

He is not as optimistic as Concubine Zhu, and the Queen Mother's words may just be because she doesn't want to veto it herself, so she let the Zaifu come out to oppose it.

Thinking of the two mansions that have almost only entered and exited, and only made internal adjustments since Yuan You, and thinking of those in the two mansions, Zhao Xu didn't believe that they would loosen the rope on his body a little lightly.

How can a group of thieves give themselves a chance?

……………………

"That's what the Queen Mother said?!"

"Gang has heard it with his own ears, how can it be false?"

"Yukun, is there any language in the palace that makes it difficult for the Queen Mother?"

"I haven't heard of it. Brother Zihou, what have you heard? ”

"I won't ask if I hear about it."

The two governors will meet in the capital hall.

Su Song did not arrive as usual, Guo Kui reported illness, and Shen Kuo lived outside. The rest of the governors, Zhaowen Xiang Zhangdun, Jixian Minister Han Gang, Privy Envoy Zhang Qi, Privy Council Governor Kumamoto, Governor Deng Runfu, and Governor Zeng Xiaokuan were all present.

Kumamoto, who is currently in charge of the Privy Council, listened to the conversation between the two prime ministers at the bottom of the room, and carefully took out a piece of tea from his mouth.

It's all grass roots. Kumamoto took another small sip and spat out the pieces.

This kind of fried green, he drank it fresh at first, but after a long time, he still felt that the group tea in the past was more palatable. However, the tea soup used in the political hall is all in line with Han Gang's taste, and it has been a long time since I used group tea.

Even though the government hall could always get a lot of group tea from the tribute for the officials to drink daily, it was now only distributed to all the officials under the Zhongshu Sect as part of the annual gifts.

These are all things that the people in the political hall have changed in order to curry favor with Han Gang.

Although Zhang Dian is now in charge of the political affairs hall, he doesn't care whether he drinks group tea or fried green, or white water, and he still doesn't care. Therefore, the usual drinks served in the government hall are still fried green.

However, if you really want to drink group tea, you can still drink it, but like most newcomers and guests, Kumamoto is not willing to be so public.

"If the Queen Mother is sincere." I saw Zhang Dian frowning for a long time, and then turned to Han Gang: "Yukun, what do you think?" ”

"So I'm going to ask you for your opinions." Han Gang pushed it again.

Which one is this singing? Duet?

Kumamoto was disdainful, and the corners of his mouth were pulled down. The two prime ministers sang together, such a tacit understanding, between the two mansions, is there anyone else to speak?

Since Zhang Dian became prime minister, Han Gang has never fought with him for power.

Although most of the courtiers in the court knew that Han Gang was going to cultivate a disciple of Qi for ten or twenty years. Sooner or later, his protΓ©gΓ©s would flock to the court.

But ten or twenty years later, how many people will care?

At that time, Zhang Dian either returned to Quanzhou to be a taishou, or he had no energy to take care of things in Pingzhang's position. What about letting Han Gang take control of the court?

And now, with Han Gang's cooperation, as long as Zhang Dian pays attention not to encroach on his self-cultivated fields, he can rest assured that he can manipulate the government of the court, and the rest of the auxiliary ministers can only retreat.

Kumamoto put down the cup, and the tea tasted very tasteless.

Zhang Qi was a member of the Privy Council before, and he had been ill intermittently for a year earlier, and he should have asked to leave his post to recuperate as usual. Han Gang and Zhang Dian both agreed with this.

Now that Zhang Qi is already a privy envoy, what he usually does is to echo Zhang Dian and Han Gang.

simply let Zhang Dian and Han Gang lead the privy envoys, and Kumamoto has always felt very suffocated, whether in the political hall or after being transferred to the Privy Council.

In the political hall, the two prime ministers are both successful in war, so the right to speak in military affairs is by no means under Kumamoto. And because the two are prime ministers, the voices will be even louder.

Kumamoto has no intention of comparing who has higher merit, only whether someone has violated his authority.

The wedding of the Son of Heaven has no part in Xifu's speech. Unless he has been a prime minister, and he has become a privy envoy - like Wen Yanbo - he has the right to speak. As a person who has only been in the Privy Council for two years, he has neither the foundation nor the confidence to intervene in this matter.

"In fact, this matter, the two ministers can decide in one word."

Xiong Ben was sitting opposite Deng Runfu, and the governor of Dongfu did not look very good, and he didn't seem to be very happy when he heard what he said.

"The Son of Heaven has always been frail, whether he can get married, Han Xianggong said that it is more effective than anyone else."

Don't work together, as long as Han Gang says something inappropriate, it doesn't matter if the time for the Son of Heaven's wedding is delayed until he is seventeen years old. Everybody knows that.

As the prime minister, as long as there is not much controversy between the DPRK and China, the marriage date of the Son of Heaven is postponed for a period of time, which is also not a problem.

"Our actions are a matter of family and country. Han Gang has a reputation for being a doctor on the road, but how can the marriage of the Son of Heaven be decided by himself? What's more, the Son of Heaven's body has no problem at all, and he can get married at any time. Han Gang turned around and stared at Deng Runfu, who was uncomfortable, "I can clearly tell you to Wen Bo that Han Gang has never used his false name for personal gain in the past, and it will be the same in the future." ”

Deng Runfu consciously lost his words and did not dare to argue with Han Gang.

Others are watching from the wall, and Zhang Dian can only stand up as prime minister,

"I think it's better to be early." Zhang Dian said in a deep voice, "The imperial court has only been living in peace for a few years, there is no need to make chickens and dogs jump, how many people are rarely at peace." ”

The seventeenth wedding of the Son of Heaven and the fourteenth wedding of the Son of Heaven, which choice will make the call for the Son of Heaven to be pro-government after marriage higher, of course, there is no need to think about it.

And for all the deacons who are doing it, there is no need to change the current power structure.

Whether it is Deng Runfu or Kumamoto, they don't think that they can get through the changes in the palace and grab the position of Zhang Dian or Han Gang.

"Be as you say."

Zhang Qi first agreed. His interests are closely linked to the Empress Dowager, and he is an ally of Zhang Dian and Han Gang.

"Xiaokuan also feels that this matter should be handled as much as possible." Zeng Xiaokuan immediately seconded the motion.

"Berton?" Chapters looked at Kumamoto.

Kumamoto said: "The marriage of children is decided by their parents. Since the Queen Mother has a word, we should obey it. ”

Han Gang nodded: "Han Gang's meaning is the same. ”

"The Queen Mother's thoughts haven't been decided yet." Deng Runfu said.

"No matter what the Queen Mother's intentions are, the Son of Heaven still gets married earlier. But......" Zhang Dian said to Han Gang, "Yukun." If the Queen Mother is undecided, I hope that Yukun can tell you about the benefits and disadvantages, and try to persuade the Queen Mother. ”

The life of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, which family in the world is not like this?

The marriage of the Son of Heaven must also be done according to the rules. Parents must always be missing. Forcing the Queen Mother to let the Son of Heaven marry is not a good thing after all, and several rulers also hope that this is what the Queen Mother really thinks.

Han Gang nodded, "That's how it should be." ”

Han Gang made a guarantee, and Deng Runfu didn't say anything more, nodding in agreement.

The Zaisukes made an agreement and dispersed.

Zhang Dian and Han Gang stayed at the end.

"How?"

Zhang Duan picked up the teacup and took a leisurely sip of cold tea.

"It doesn't look like a problem." Hangang Road.

With Han Gang's person, the Queen Mother said that she would take measures to hold the wedding of the Son of Heaven, how could he not ask clearly?

If he relieved the Queen Mother's worries and helped her say something that was not easy to say, Han Gang would directly arrange for someone to do it when he turned around, and he would have communicated with Zhang Dian in private, and he would not have gathered a group of Zaifu here at all.

Temptation, of course.

But Kumamoto hesitated. As for Dunwinberg......"

"Don't worry about Wember. Lu Jifu couldn't tolerate him after he came up. ”

"Then it's really fine."

"So, ...... next"

"It's up to us to see which family's daughter is suitable."
