Chapter 283: Leading the War

After the plan failed, she tried in vain to make a humble gesture to curry favor to unite the hearts of the people who had suffered from the famine in northern Xinjiang, so as to be her shield to cover her retreat? After Chu Zikai saw through Concubine Ling's thoughts, he had to admit that the matter she had planned with all her heart and mind today was really a lot of brains.

But even if he has an admirable intelligence, he has never used it in a good place, and he just wants to use it to calculate people, which really only makes people feel extremely disgusted, and Concubine Ling's series of actions today fell in Chu Zikai's eyes, and there were also some special natures secretly mixed in, in addition to letting him see through the hypocrisy that she usually hidden, it also made him feel that the majesty of his Ninety-Five Dignity was slightly offended.

Just because Concubine Ling provoked this matter, it was originally to calculate Yu Zhao, so that her crime of extravagance was spurned by the world, if you just look at the appearance, this matter is nothing more than a trivial worry such as the concubine's jealousy, if it is just so, Chu Zikai feels that as long as he can protect Yu Zhao well, he does not want to be too vigilant about such trivial matters.

And what made Chu Zikai have to pay a lot of attention is that Concubine Ling, who looks harmless to humans and animals on weekdays, her scheming should not be underestimated, looking back at the development process of this matter, thinking about it carefully, Chu Zikai can keenly find that she is actually a person who can use strategies and people's hearts so handy.

A group of concubines who have never been at ease and only know how to fight back and forth can be curried by her to become united, and they are willing to go to the soup for her to be a pawn against Yu Zhao, and that's it, she even has the intention of pulling the hearts of the people affected by the disaster in northern Xinjiang over for her own use. Chu Zikai expected this, and it was enough to have evidence to define that Concubine Ling did have the heart to implicate the political affairs of the court in the battle of the harem.

Since he was a child, he tasted the harem forces colluding with the ministers, secretly controlling the situation in the court, and putting himself in dire straits.

The road was bumpy, after Chu Zikai ascended the throne with a scar, if he didn't particularly remember the lesson and let go of the deliberate collusion of the harem, he would really be incompetent.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, Chu Zikai gradually became unhappy in his heart, and he didn't want to be polite with Concubine Ling and Ling Feng, so he talked about the matter, went straight to the topic, asked the two of them, and then helped Yu Zhao to sit down, turned back to the main seat, flicked his sleeves, and sat down steadily, with a serious expression on his face, almost cold and ruthless, just asking people to take a look, they couldn't help but shudder.

"Why don't you answer what I ask you?"

Every word is like frost, Long Wei cannot be offended, once it appears, it is so deterrent, Chu Zikai successfully froze all the impulses in Ling Feng's mind with words alone, but when he calmed down, Ling Feng suddenly realized that the words he had just confronted Yu Zhao had no real confidence to support at all.

For the understanding of the situation at all stages of the disaster in Northern Xinjiang, Ling Feng has a reputation for self-knowledge, and the exact number he can grasp is just the news that he heard in the court one or two before, and the rest of his time recently, he has only been busy preparing for his marriage with Wen Luo, and now he can't help but be asked, except for panic, there is only a blank space in his mind, how can he give an answer.

And Concubine Ling, she didn't have time to be saddened by Chu Zikai's indifference to her, she also knew that the chess game she laid out this time had made a mistake before it began, and it was set off by Yu Zhao's plan, if Yu Zhao was determined to settle accounts with her, for her, it was almost a dead end.

There is nowhere to escape, every step is full of crises, Concubine Ling is calm and steady, but she does not dare to make a move easily, knowing that she must be cautious and cautious, put her sense very clearly, and find the key place to settle in the end, so as to have the opportunity to find a breakthrough and find a way out. No matter how she thought about it, she still couldn't think of a way, so she had to delay the stalemate by not moving.

Under the gaze of many people, Ling Feng was like a thorn in the back, and he saw Concubine Ling holding his breath and concentrating with his spare eyes, but he couldn't answer for a long time, and in desperation, he could only come out to take responsibility, and he took the lead in replying:

"Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... The minister knows that the famine in northern Xinjiang has spread widely, and now the general trend is beginning to decline, but the people of the disaster are trapped by the rest of the forces, and they are worried about food and clothing. ”

"Ridiculous!"

In the court, under the crane robes and python uniforms of the civil and military officials, there is a heart for seeking utilitarianism, on the Jinluan Palace, how can it not be a battlefield where there is no gunsmoke, when someone makes a mistake, it is also when someone is looking for an opportunity to compete for performance, Zhang Yunzhong listened to Ling Feng's words and spit back, immediately seized the opportunity, and after rejecting it loudly, he walked quickly to the hall and bowed his head and said:

"Your Majesty, it is true that this famine has spread widely, but my Great Chu is strong, not enough to be hurt by this, Your Majesty is a wise and martial king, when the disaster first started, he quickly issued a complete policy, commanding officials from all over the country to govern properly, and now, the situation in the disaster areas is by no means as Ling Shilang said. The people's food, clothing, and food can be satisfied by relief, so why should there be worries? ”

"The news I found out is the same as Zhang Shangshu,"

Chu Zikai waved his hand, exempted Zhang Yunzhong, shook his head and let out a sneer, but there was no smile on his face, and his cold eyes looked straight at Concubine Ling and Ling Feng, and then asked sarcastically at everyone under the table:

"Ladies and gentlemen, have you heard different rumors? Let's say it together, I just heard that the news that Ling Shilang got was different from mine, and I thought that someone who held the power to do evil and embezzled the materials, money and other things sent to the disaster area! ”

"The ministers are terrified, don't dare, Your Majesty!"

Chu Zikai's last sentence, like a heavy stone hitting the hearts of the ministers, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, wearing official uniforms to beg for a living, the first moment can be glamorous and admired by everyone, a moment careless, the next moment can be the head of the head to the ground and beheaded, the courtiers heard this heavy word, and hurriedly bowed their heads in fear to make a gesture of submission.

Unexpectedly, seeing that Concubine Ling and Ling Feng were both panicked in this meeting, Chu Zikai was unwilling to give them any chance to ease their minds, and said: "That being the case, then bother you Aiqing, come to argue with Ling Shilang in person, so that I can see whether I should believe his words or your words." ”
