As soon as Zhao Yan came to the political hall, he was grabbed and told him that it was not good to say a big thing, which made him startled, and when he saw the person who held him, Zhao Yan was stunned, because the person who pulled him turned out to be Chen Shengzhi, one of the prime ministers, and he saw that the other party was now full of anxious expressions, and it seemed that there was really something urgent to say to him.

"What made Chen Xianggong so frightened?" Zhao Yan asked curiously at the moment, he thought that the other party had some urgent government affairs to report, so he was so anxious.

However, this time Zhao Yan guessed wrong, only to see Chen Shengzhi first look around, to make sure that no one noticed him, then he said in a low voice: "Your Highness, the big thing is not good, Lu Huiqing and ......"

"Hey, it turns out that Chen Xianggong is here, and he just happened to have something to do with you!" Before Chen Shengzhi finished speaking, he was interrupted by a person who suddenly came out behind him, and Zhao Yan's eyes narrowed when he heard this familiar voice, because the person who spoke was Lu Huiqing, whom he didn't like the most, and Chen Shengzhi's unfinished words also mentioned Lu Huiqing, could it be that this guy was doing something?

Before Zhao Yan could figure it out, he saw Lu Huiqing coming over with a smile on his face, and then deliberately pretended to have just seen Zhao Yan, showing a very fake surprised expression and said: "It turns out that His Royal Highness King Yue is also here, and he didn't see it just now, and I hope His Royal Highness will forgive him!" ”

Regarding Lu Huiqing's contrived performance, Zhao Yan didn't have time to pay attention to it, because he was very keenly aware that everyone usually called himself regent when they saw him in the political hall, but now Lu Huiqing has changed his words to only call King Yue, and the meaning of this is intriguing.

Seeing Lu Huiqing coming, Chen Shengzhi's face turned red all of a sudden, and he wanted to say something several times, but he couldn't say it. had to look at Zhao Yan vigorously, but unfortunately Zhao Yan didn't understand the meaning in his eyes, and Lu Huiqing made it clear that Lai was on the side and didn't leave, which made him snort coldly: "Since Lu Xianggong has something to do with Chen Xianggong, then the regent won't bother!" ”

After Zhao Yan finished speaking, he turned around and entered the political affairs hall, and then came to his place to sit down and deal with government affairs. But what he didn't expect was that the bookcase that should have been piled up was empty, except for the four sets of the study, there was not even a book, which was obviously very abnormal.

Seeing this, Zhao Yan's face sank at the moment, and he turned around and scanned the entire political hall, only to find that Zeng Gongliang, the old fox, was not here, and Chen Shengzhi was entangled by Lu Huiqing again. Now that only Sima Guang was left in the main hall who was burying his head in dealing with government affairs, Zhao Yan strode up to him and said in a deep voice: "Sima Xianggong, where are all the twists and turns on my desk, it won't be that you have all helped this regent deal with it, right?" ”

Sima Guang seemed to have been waiting for Zhao Yan's inquiry for a long time, only to see him put down the pen in his hand at this time, then raised his head and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Yue, the former emperor was seriously ill and could not handle government affairs. In desperation, the king of Yue was summoned to the political hall to temporarily act as regent, but now the new emperor has ascended the throne. According to the rules of previous dynasties, if the new emperor is too young to handle government affairs, the queen mother will listen to the government and temporarily handle government affairs on behalf of His Majesty. So now the Empress Dowager will listen to the government, and as for the various government affairs that have been backlogged before, today the official has personally sent it to the Empress Dowager! ”

After Sima Guang finished saying the above paragraph, he looked at Zhao Yan calmly, he knew that he would definitely offend Zhao Yan to death by doing so. So he was also ready to meet Zhao Yan's anger, and even became Zhao Yan's enemy, but he didn't feel the slightest regret about it, because in his opinion, after the new emperor ascended the throne, if Zhao Yan was allowed to serve as regent, I am afraid that it would only fuel Zhao Yan's ambitions, and push the Great Song Dynasty into the abyss of no return.

However, to Sima Guang's surprise, Zhao Yan did not get angry after listening to his words, but looked him up and down with a very strange gaze, and after a long while, he suddenly spoke: "Sima Xianggong, did you do this from your heart, or was you bewitched by someone?" ”

"Although the lower officials are not talented, they are not so easy to be bewitched, not to mention that after Your Majesty ascends the throne, it should have been ruled by the harem, not by Your Majesty!" Although Sima Guang tried his best to say the righteousness, there was a hint of unnaturalness in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Yan, which was enough for Zhao Yan to know the reason.

"It seems that some people can't wait to grab power, but it's a pity that you guys are too underestimate me Zhao Yan!" Zhao Yan snorted coldly at the moment, didn't pay attention to Sima Guang anymore, turned around and left the political hall, when he came outside, he saw that Chen Shengzhi was still stopped by Lu Huiqing, and when he saw Zhao Yan, his face also showed an anxious look, speaking of which he was just a nominal prime minister before, and later after Zhao Yan served as regent, he returned the power to him step by step, so Chen Shengzhi was still very grateful to Zhao Yan, this time the Empress Dowager Gao seized power, he was also the last to know, I wanted to remind Zhao Yan but it was too late.

"Your Highness, why did you just come here and leave?" At this moment, Lu Huiqing stepped forward with a villainous expression, originally with his city government, he would never be so frivolous, but this time the Empress Dowager Gao suddenly made a move, and suddenly took away the power in Zhao Yan's hands, and he was also one of the supporters, thinking of Zhao Yan losing the power in his hands, but he could still sit firmly in the position of prime minister, which made Lu Huiqing extremely excited, and the resentment that had been suppressed by Zhao Yan before also broke out all of a sudden, so he made such a move proudly.

Seeing Lu Huiqing's proud appearance, Zhao Yan smiled unexpectedly, and then beckoned to him and motioned him to step forward, which made Lu Huiqing and Chen Shengzhi next to him stunned, but taking pictures of Zhao Yan's previous power, Lu Huiqing still instinctively took a few steps forward and came to Zhao Yan, but to everyone's surprise, I saw Zhao Yan fly up and kick Lu Huiqing's chest, and as a result, Lu Huiqing kicked Lu Huiqing several times at once, and he couldn't stand up for a long time.

Immediately afterwards, I saw Zhao Yan pointing to Lu Huiqing on the ground and scolding: "The villain has no more ambition than this, don't think that you can keep your position if you take refuge in others, this king tells you, even if I don't do the position of regent, you don't want to stay in the political hall anymore to confuse the world, Lao Tzu has to get you to Nanyang to be with the local people!" ”

"Your Highness! ...... are you" Chen Shengzhi finally reacted at this time, and his face changed greatly at the moment and stepped forward to say to Zhao Yan, although Zhao Yan's identity is noble, but beating a prime minister in the political hall, this kind of thing is simply too bad, and now the Empress Dowager Gao is worried that she can't catch Zhao Yan's handle, and now if the other party makes a big fuss about this matter, wouldn't it make Zhao Yan's situation worse?

"Hehe, Chen Xianggong don't worry, this king will enter the palace to meet the queen mother!" Although Zhao Yan was smiling when he spoke, the coldness in his eyes made people shudder.

"Your Majesty, don't be impulsive, let alone mess around!" Chen Shengzhi was taken aback by Zhao Yan's eyes, and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade, although he was grateful to Zhao Yan, but at the same time, he was more optimistic about Zhao Yan's ability and power, thinking that it was not so easy to seize power from Zhao Yan, so he ran to report to Zhao Yan, hoping to show his loyalty, but he didn't expect Zhao Yan to be so impulsive, not only beat Lu Huiqing in the political hall, but also wanted to enter the palace to reason with the Empress Dowager Gao.

"Chen Xianggong, please rest assured, this king is very calm now, he knows what he is doing, and you will understand this king's intentions in a short time!" Zhao Yan suddenly showed a calm smile to Chen Shengzhi as he spoke, and then he didn't pay attention to the other party, turned around and walked out of the political hall, and walked straight to the palace.

As soon as Zhao Yan just left the political hall, there was a small chamberlain not far away who also turned around and ran, and when he reached the corner, someone even pulled out a horse for him, and then this little chamberlain galloped wildly in the palace, and soon rushed into the palace gate of the inner palace, and then came to the palace where the Empress Dowager Gao lived, and then threw off the saddle and dismounted and galloped into the palace.

At this time, the Empress Dowager Gao was proudly reviewing the twists and turns in front of her, although Zhao Ji's death made her feel extremely sad, but she was an extremely rational woman, after the grief, she quickly calmed down, although Zhao Yan did not become the new emperor as she feared, but she still held the military and political power of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to say that if Zhao Yan wants to seize the throne, it is almost effortless, and most of the civil and military officials in the court will not object, after all, no matter from which point of view, Zhao Yandu is more suitable for ascending to the throne than Zhao Maid, who is still a child.

It is precisely because of this that after thinking about it for a long time, Empress Dowager Gao finally made a decision, that is, she secretly contacted some ministers in the court, intending to take over the power in the hands of Zhao Yan.

It's a pity that Zhao Ji was not strong at the time, this sentence was not finished at all, and the voice was very small, only Zhao Yan, Empress Dowager Gao, and Empress Xiang could hear it, so she secretly persuaded Empress Xiang again, and the two concealed this sentence in a unified voice, and put forward the idea that the new emperor was young and should have been in charge of the harem, but this coincided with Sima Guang's concept, as for Lu Huiqing, he was even more happy, as for Zeng Gongliang, he was a two-faced, and when he heard this, he immediately shrank into the mansion and did not come out.

In this case, the Empress Dowager Gao finally decided to launch her plan to seize power, the first step of the whole plan is to start from the political hall, it just so happened that Zhao Yan also came back on this day, so the Empress Dowager Gao also wanted to use this matter to test Zhao Yan's reaction, so she also sent someone to the political hall to pay attention to the situation over there, and when the chamberlain rushed to report in her ear, the Empress Dowager Gao also frowned suddenly, and only after a while did she speak: "Pass the order of the mourning family, close the palace gate, no one is allowed to enter!"
