75 Assemblies of the Inner Court
Prime Minister Zhao Guangxin is dead, and his forces have been defeated.
The loser does not deserve to have history, all basins will be buckled on their heads, and any cases and conspiracies will be pushed on him. Suddenly, a lot of backlog of headless cases were solved, and it turned out that they were all the prime minister's doing; And we have solved a lot of cases that have not yet happened but will happen in the future.
Everywhere there are minions from the noble family who come to the palace to report their masters. However, if any servant sent by the prime minister came to report it, he would immediately entertain him with good wine and food, and then take someone to raid the house; Anyone who had an internal response in the palace was immediately thrown into the royal prison and never seen again.
Now, in the palace, in the court, and in Chang'an City, the factions are in chaos.
To what extent? I'll tell you something.

On that day, a forbidden army came over, pointed at some people one by one and said, "You! You! You! Inner Court Plenary! One hundred floors. β
I looked at the people he was referring to, they were all high-ranking imperial officials, and finally, he pointed at meβamong such imperial officials, I was the lowest.
I said, "The Inner Court plenum?" What kind of conference is this? β
I thought, "Haha! They treat me like a courtier! I can actually participate in the 'Inner Court Plenary Meeting'! β
Unlike my joy, those who were named had sad faces.
I asked the director of the Guangchu Department, "What's going on?" β
Director of the Department of Extensive Storage: "The general manager wants us to be loyal. β
Me: "Isn't that good?" β
He looked at me.
I...... I seem to understand something.
More than 30 colleagues from the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs who were present at the meeting walked together and took the elevator together - I found out that the Minister of Internal Affairs was not there.
I said, "Where's the boss?" β
Someone said, "Sick." β
Me: "Won't you?" We drank together yesterday. β
Those people looked at me and seemed to say, "This guy is stupid." β
I got it right away!
I said, "I probably drank too much yesterday." β

We arrived at the Inner Court headquarters on the 100th floor.
I came for the first time and watched curiously. This is another "super office" that occupies half a floor, with hundreds of people sitting in it and hundreds of forbidden soldiers standing, and it is actually very spacious!
Li Yongfu, the head of the inner court and the commander of the forbidden army, was wearing a golden robe, standing on the stage and looking at the entrance.
This man is in his fifties, with a square face, somewhat rich, but his eyes are terrifying.
He said, "No one? β
Liu Xingchao, the deputy head of the inner court and the supervisor of the forbidden army, said: "It's gone." β
Li Yongfu's face changed greatly, and he said fiercely: "Write it down for me!" Whoever doesn't come is a traitor inside and out! β
Liu Xingchao said: "Some people ......"
He grimaced and said, "Some people just don't want to wade into this troubled water." β
Li Yongfu: "Troubled waters?!" β
Liu Xingchao: "That's what they said. β
Li Yongfu: "Don't hook up with foreign courts, I know who it is!" β
He walked to the stage, looked at the people, pointed one by one, and pointed to a dozen at once.
Hundreds of people were so frightened that they couldn't breathe.
Li Yongfu shouted: "Drag it out!" β
The forbidden army is here, set up and leave!
Hundreds of people's faces have changed!
Liu Xingchao: "Boss! Explorer! β
Li Yongfu: "What's wrong?!" β
Liu Xingchao: "...... It's okay. β
Li Yongfu looked at Liu Xingchao: "How do you control people?!" β
Liu Xingchao: "I tried my best, but ...... It's like cutting leeks, cutting one stubble and one stubble! β
Li Yongfu: "What are you eating?!" How many times have I told you, be skillful! Skill! Skill! Domination is a skill, not brute force! β
Liu Xingchao nodded.
Li Yongfu: "I asked you to dispatch the forbidden army to deter the foreign courts, what the hell did you do!" β
Liu Xingchao: "Huh? I've wiped out the Prime Minister's army. β
Li Yongfu: "Damn! Rubbish! How many times have I told you! It depends on people's hearts! Popularity! Now people don't know that we've wiped them out! Which waste was written in the news of the Royal Daily? Write that the Hanzhong earthquake shook the traitor to death? β
Liu Xingchao: "It's the Minister of Information. β
The Minister of Information hurriedly got up: "It's me who was confessed by the Inner Court Assembly!" β
Liu Xingchao: "Isn't this convention? Did it write that we blew them up? How to explain to the emperor? β
Li Yongfu: "You have to write that the earthquake killed the traitor, but don't make them believe that the earthquake killed the traitor!" You have to let them know, you have to imply that we blew up the traitors! β
The Minister of Information nodded.
Li Yongfu: "We dispatched the forbidden army to deter the world!" Now no one in the world knows that we have dispatched a forbidden army, and we are still intimidating! Damn it! The Ministry of Punishment is also a waste! I watched the day before yesterday that you actually killed a group of rumor-mongers for the crime of spreading rumors. β
Minister of Criminal Affairs: "They spread rumors that we have flattened Hanzhong." β
Li Yongfu: "Damn! Our purpose is to let people know that it is we who have flattened Hanzhong! β
Minister of Criminal Affairs: "Huh? β
Li Yongfu: "What 'ah'! Why is there such a bunch of garbage! β
The head of the criminal department nodded: "I'm sending people to spread rumors now, saying that we have flattened Hanzhong?" β
Li Yongfu: "No! You bunch of garbage, what can you do every time you spread rumors?! Waste that doesn't make it! You have to pretend to punish the rumor-mongering, but don't really punish it, but let others think that you really punish it. β
The head of the criminal department continued to nod.
Li Yongfu said earnestly: "We want to create an atmosphere where they think the inner court is bad but they think we are good. Do you understand? They believe in us slaughtering the city and they don't believe in us, you know? They must understand that no matter what happens, we are in control of the situation; No matter what the way it is, these things are done on purpose, you know? β
The minister below nodded.
Li Yongfu waved his hand: "Let's go!" Be smart! β
But someone as smart as me is a mess!
What the hell did the Lord Steward tell us to do?

A few days later, I went to find Dongfang Yi.
He looked at me: "What are you looking for me for?" β
Me: "Wander around, go to the house, and come and see you." β
Him: "There's a lot of going on now, don't look for me if you have nothing to do!" It's okay for two people with the surname Zhao to be together, our surname is Dongfang, it's too conspicuous! β
Me: "Let's not be conspicuous in our house." β
Him: "Still inconspicuous? Dongfang Mingyue is the princess! Got it! β
Me: "I...... Got it. β
Him: "Also, don't go to the eldest lady!" Others will be misunderstood! β
Me: "No way! I'm a eunuch! We don't care! β
Dongfang Yi: "What?! What I'm saying is that others say that our Oriental family colludes with the crown prince's faction! β
Me: "Oh! Scared the hell out of me! I thought it was a big deal! β
Him: "Also, keep an eye on it, maybe someone is going to stir things up." Many years ago, the head of the family and the prime minister sent troops together to destroy the Dugu family, so be careful that others will take it out. β
I nodded.

Another day, the Ministry of Internal Affairs held its own court assembly.
The governor told a bunch of nonsense about doing his job well.
When it was over, I continued to sit in a daze.
My immediate boss, the director of the Guangchu Division, patted me on the shoulder and said, "What do you want, boy?" β
I said, "It's such a complicated fight, they fought really hard and miserable. β
"No one is innocent," he said. I only hear the newcomer laughing, and the old person crying. Those who can enter the court are either killed or killed. Why don't you want to wade into this troubled water to come to the court? β
Me: "Pity the first warrior clan in the world is destroyed like this." β
Him: "How majestic he was when he destroyed Prime Minister Dugu!" It turns out that he also has today! The First Warriors? That's just the storyteller's nonsense, seeing that someone married a daughter to the emperor, he said that it was the first scholar. How can the first clan rely on a girl to get it? β
Me: "Then who are the First Scholars?" β
Him: "Don't say it, don't say it!" Some of the Shi clans are more terrifying than the Twelve Shi clans. β
I asked, "Which nobles?" β
He said, "If even I knew, would they still be called terrible?" Don't meet it in the future, because if you do, you will die. β
I asked, "Is the chief of the inner court afraid of them too?" β
He looked at me and said slowly: "Whoever comes out of the bird will die, if you can keep a low profile, keep a low profile, remember my words." The head of the inner court is not what you see, and the emperor is not like what you see, there are many forces in the palace and the court, and the water is deep. Every single one of the hundreds of people you see in the court hall is not simple. β
He said: "It is safest to be an official like me, who is neither high nor low. β

I was about to go to bed at night when there was a banging on the door.
When I opened the door, it was a eunuch I didn't know. He said to me, "If you have something to do, come with me." β
I came downstairs to the headquarters of the Criminal Department - I saw Li Feiyu and several other high-ranking imperial officials, they were surrounding a person tied to a chair - Dongfang Yongde!
