Chapter 232: Resentment

But this time, Han Zhongyan couldn't help but feel a little curious about this matter. He took half a step forward and said to Xu Jiang in front of him: Eh, I said Xu Gong, what do you think of this matter?

Because the hat feathers of the long-winged crown worn by the prime minister are extremely long, Han Zhongyan can't reach Xu Jiang's ear, and when he speaks, there is still a little distance from Xu Jiang. In this way, his voice did not seem particularly small, and he and the civil and military ministers around Xu Jiang heard his words.

Everyone immediately calmed down, and everyone wanted to hear how Xu Jiang, the new prime minister, expressed his position. Although in the Great Song Dynasty, it was difficult for the prime minister to directly decide the ownership of the throne, but the attitude of the prime minister could affect the emperor's decision, and then affect the final ownership of the throne. No one in the DPRK and China has the right to speak, and the prime minister cannot be compared.

Xu Jiang turned around leisurely, his face did not change in the slightest, his eyes were serious, but his voice was a little higher than Han Zhongyan, as if all his colleagues in the hall were talking: Han Gong, this kind of thing, without the person in person, we still can't put a beak. Besides, when the emperor comes, he will naturally talk about this time, and the truth of the matter will be judged by itself, wouldn't it be better than us speculating here?

Han Zhongyan's face was a little embarrassed. He has always respected General Xu the most, and just this sentence made him see a gap between himself and General Xu, that is, he is very inferior in terms of calmness and prudence.

It is no wonder that the emperor handed over the position of prime minister to him, but he is old, so he can seek the country, and the emperor is really discerning! If ordinary people are reprimanded mercilessly in public like this, even if they dare not say much because of the identity of the other party, slandering and even scolding in their hearts are inevitable, but it is rare for Han Zhongyan to be able to secretly reflect on himself.

The ministers were a little disappointed when they heard Xu Jiang say this, but it was not good to continue to discuss this issue in depth. The temple fell silent.

At this moment, Zhao Xu finally arrived, with a look of anger on his face.

Zhao Xu's anger was not faked, but real.

Yesterday's incident was indeed a game he laid out, that is, to use Zhao Jing's bath to lure Zhao Ji into being fooled.

Originally, if you want to lure other people, you can just find a concubine, but Zhao Ji's identity is unusual, he grew up in the Forbidden Palace since he was a child, and he is very familiar with the Forbidden Palace. Generally, he would never go to the palace of the harem concubines. Even if he is led to a place, he will not enter the bath. The only exception is Funing Palace.

Funing Palace was where Zhao Xu lived back then, but it was just given to Zhao Jing. When he arrived at Funing Palace, Zhao Ji would naturally relax his vigilance, even if he knew that Zhao Jing was bathing, he would not have thought that this was a trap for himself. He felt that Zhao Xu was very fond of Zhao Jing, and it was impossible to use her innocence as a weapon against him.

In fact, Zhao Ji's judgment was right, Zhao Xu really didn't think of using Zhao Jing as a bait to deal with Zhao Ji. Zhao Jing is a very unruly master, probably because he has lived outside the palace for too long, and he doesn't care much about the distance between master and servant. Her bath is a bath that can also be used casually by the ladies in the palace. As long as Zhao Jing herself is not using it, the palace ladies who serve her can use it at any time. Although this is not in accordance with the rules, who made her eldest princess the most favored person by Zhao Xu, even if what she did was more outrageous, Zhao Xu would support it.

For the palace ladies, enjoying the bath of the eldest princess is definitely a rare opportunity, who wouldn't want to!

Therefore, as long as they have nothing to do, they will take a bath, one to cleanse the imperfections, and the other to relax their minds and adjust their body and mind. Even some female officials in other palaces who were close to Zhao Jing often came here to bathe.

In this way, Zhao Jing's bath is rarely empty all day long. It's a great idea to use this bath to entice people to hook up.

In order not to ruin Zhao Jing's innocence, Zhao Xu also instructed that Zhao Jing, who must be listened to, had already bathed before announcing Zhao Ji into the palace. As long as Zhao Ji enters the bath, no matter whether there is anyone in it or not, arrest him on the spot, and it will be difficult to escape the guilt.

What Zhao Xu didn't calculate was that after Zhao Jing went out for a spin after taking a bath once, she would bathe for a second time! Then, the scene that Zhao Xu didn't want to see was just like this! Although Zhao Xu used means to let the news of Zhao Jing's body being snooped on be strangled in the cradle. The news that the minister outside heard was that Zhao Ji was intent on mistreating Gong E in the palace, but he didn't know that Zhao Jing was also one of the victims. But facts are facts, and even if no one knows, that's a fact.

The anger in Zhao Xu's heart at this time can be imagined, what he was thinking about was the scene where Zhao Jing was naked and was stopped by Zhao Ji to appreciate it carefully, the more he thought about it, the more he rolled in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more ugly his face became. At this time, no matter where he went, it was as if a fire was burning within five feet of his body. Although it is now late autumn, the people around him are unbearable for such a taste.

What Zhao Xu didn't know was that in fact, Zhao Ji really didn't see anything yesterday. The bath was so hot that it hid the figures. As soon as Zhao Ji saw that this was a bath, he immediately started to run back, he didn't even see a single figure, let alone Zhao Jing's body.

But Zhao Ji didn't argue with such a thing, he just said that it would be useless if he didn't see it, and others wouldn't believe it. Besides, it doesn't matter if you see it or not, it's mainly who wants you to see it and who wants you not to see it. Zhao Ji is very familiar with current affairs, how Zhao Xu asks, how he responds, and says that he is human-faced and beast-hearted, and pigs and dogs are not as good. He knew that since Zhao Xu did not hesitate to use Zhao Jing to deal with him, it also showed that he was absolutely unwilling to let himself ascend to the throne.

But Zhao Ji's wishful thinking failed, he admitted it too happily, which made Zhao Xu, who was in anger and lost his normal judgment, think that he really had a bad heart when he entered the palace, and his own layout happened to suit his heart. Even, it is very likely that Zhao Ji had a covetous heart for his half-sister Zhao Jing a long time ago!

Zhao Xu was annoyed in his heart, why didn't he realize that Zhao Ji was such a prodigal bastard for a long time? Why, why was he the first man to see the body of the tenth sister, and not
