Chapter 248: Secretly Observing
On the other hand, Gu Ye looked at the agreement in his hand, and the ministers on the side were a little worried, because now that a month had passed, they were also mentally prepared to wait for Gu Ye to announce it to the world, but he was so leisurely, he was obviously a little puzzled.
"Your Majesty, what you promised them before," said one of the ministers.
"Oh? Well, now that the agreement is in our hands, we can do whatever we want? Could it be that there is a condition written in the agreement that I want to tell the world? Gu Ye said.
For a while, everyone was a little disgusted by Gu Ye's actions as an empty glove white wolf like this, but they agreed very much, at least they didn't have to bear the infamy.
Seeing that everyone was convinced, Gu Ye didn't say anything, just silently ordered the matter.
At night, Gu Ye looked at the list that Shuanglou gave him, and couldn't help but worry.
"What are you looking at?" Zhen Yufu walked over and asked at this time.
"It's nothing, it's just a war report." Gu Ye hurriedly put away the list.
Looking at Gu Ye's expression, Zhen Yufu suddenly showed that she was very interested in the battle report, so she asked Gu Ye for the paper just now.
"Show me." Zhen Yufu said.
The two argued, but in a hurry, the paper fell out, and Zhen Yufu immediately picked it up.
Of course, Gu Ye took a step faster, and when Zhen Yufu was about to get the paper, he immediately reached out and snatched the paper back.
"That's before, it's none of your business." After speaking, he put away the battle report, and then left the room with a bad face.
At this time, Zhen Yufu's face changed, because what she just saw was not a battle report, but a list, although it was just a quick glance, it was a list, looking at the list above, there was the name of her official in it.
"Could it be, he thought?"
Soon after, I saw that the old courtiers began to sit still, since Gu Ye promulgated the new policy, many officials' income has decreased, and even many officials have been named inexplicable crimes, either confiscated family property or demoted and left the capital.
Other officials began to collect money from the people, and for a time the people began to be resentful.
"Your Majesty, this is the treasury this time." I saw that the household department handed over the account book.
Gu Ye looked at it and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"Didn't I adjust my taxes earlier? Why is there a lot of people complaining? Gu Ye said.
"Your Majesty, this is because those people are too greedy, so they are like this." One of the officials explained.
Looking at the other party's appearance, Gu Ye was a little puzzled, but decided to take a look at it in a private interview.
"I've been a little uncomfortable these days, so the matter of the early dynasty will be handed over to the prime minister and the ministers." After speaking, Gu Ye pretended to cough a few times.
The officials on the side looked puzzled, but seeing that the emperor was temporarily ignoring political affairs, his previous corruption would naturally be able to get away with it.
After the end of the early dynasty, Gu Ye also called Liu Zhilai to see a doctor for himself.
"Imperial Doctor Liu, you will do this and this for a while..."Gu Ye leaned into Liu Zhi's ear and whispered.
"However, Your Majesty, if you go out without permission like this, it is inevitable that there will be..."Liu Zhi hesitated.
Gu Ye whispered: "It's okay, I'll go for a few days to see the people's situation, as for those corrupt officials, I'll deal with them when I come back." ”
Liu Zhi had no choice but to agree.
Just when everyone outside the door was waiting, they saw Liu Zhi walking out helplessly.
"Imperial Doctor Liu, what happened to the emperor?" Zhen Yufu asked anxiously.
"The emperor's illness is not trivial, it will infect the people around him, and the government affairs during this period will be tiring for all the adults." Liu Zhi said helplessly, "And in the future, no one can go in without my consent, so as not to infect the people around them with a disease."
However, many people still asked without giving up, and Liu Zhi said that he had no choice for the time being, so he had to go back to the Tai Hospital to find ancient books, and specially ordered everyone not to go in, so everyone couldn't help but take two steps back.
The worried look of everyone reassured Liu Zhi, and even when he asked the soldiers to stand guard, he tried to stay away as much as possible so as not to be infected, and the soldiers under him also took a few steps away.
At the time of the two watches in the evening, Gu Ye took advantage of the time when the guards changed shifts, took the opportunity to change clothes, and by the way, he used the disguise technique, and after confirming that there was no problem, Bai Na quietly left the palace.
The next day, Zhen Yufu felt that something was wrong, why did Gu Ye, who looked fine yesterday, suddenly say that he was sick?
"Could it be that he is thinking of taking the opportunity to investigate and covertly visit?"
Thinking of this, Zhen Yufu was a little worried, so she took advantage of the time when no one was there to come to Gu Ye's bedroom.
However, when he came to the door of Gu Ye's room, he was still a little hesitant, for fear that he would be contagious if he peeked like this.
At this time, Liu Zhi had already left to boil the medicine, and Zhen Yufu on the side immediately poked a hole in the window and peeked at the situation inside.
However, after taking a look, he found that everything was normal, and even the medicine box that Liu Zhi put on the table did not have a sense of disobedience.
"It's strange, why didn't you see Gu Ye?" Zhen Yufu was a little puzzled.
When I looked at the bed, although the curtain was drawn, there were still some gaps leaking out, and I saw that it was completely empty.
"What is this, what's going on?" Zhen Yufu said in surprise.
Seeing that there was no one on the bed inside, Zhen Yufu was stunned for a while, I don't know how long it was, but I saw that Liu Zhi had been shouting beside him for a long time.
"Queen? Empress? Empress? Liu Zhi shouted on the side, but Zhen Yufu was still stunned as if he hadn't heard it.
After a while, I saw Zhen Yufu suddenly seem to be taken aback, "Imperial Doctor Liu, it's you." ”
"Queen, you've been standing here for a while, has something happened?" Liu Zhi asked.
"Uh... I was just passing by to take a look at the emperor's illness. Zhen Yufu said.
"Ahh His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is fine, but he is just a little emaciated, and even his voice has changed a little, which may be the impact of his condition. Liu Zhi explained.
However, Zhen Yufu looked at Liu Zhi's expression, and suddenly became suspicious, thinking about going in and having a look.
Liu Zhi naturally stopped her in front of the door, "Queen Mother, please don't go in, I'm doing this for your good, the emperor's condition is too complicated, I don't want one more person to get sick, and I really can't take care of two patients at that time." ”
Regarding Liu Zhi's words, Zhen Yufu still felt a little strange, "Imperial Doctor Liu, you get out of the way for me, do you mean that the emperor is not inside?" ”
Sensing Zhen Yufu's intentions, Liu Zhi said: "Of course the emperor is inside, but his face is not very good, and the queen is still mentally prepared." ”
Zhen Yufu ignored Liu Zhi, opened the door directly and walked inside.
At this time, there was already a figure meditating quietly on the bed in the room, as if the movement outside had not affected him.
"Your Majesty, how are you?" Zhen Yufu hurriedly walked over and asked.
"Queen Mother, don't go over, the current emperor is some..."Liu Zhi admonished.
At this time, there was a person sitting on the bed in the room, but Zhen Yufu didn't pay attention to Liu Zhi's warning, opened the curtain first, and saw that the person meditating inside had a swollen face beyond recognition, and it was even difficult to distinguish his expression.
Seeing such a scene, Zhen Yufu immediately took a few steps back, pointed at the person in front of her in horror and asked, "Imperial Doctor Liu, what is going on?" ”
Liu Zhi came over and immediately closed the curtain, "Queen Mother, don't tell anyone else about this matter, it's all a secret." ”
Don't be frightened, Zhen Yufu, who was a little frightened, ran out of the door quickly in the face of such a visual impact.
Liu Zhi immediately pulled the curtain tightly, and then walked out.
"Queen Mother, the emperor's condition is clear now, and I won't hide it from you, in fact, this condition has begun to appear since last night, but I thought it was edema so I went to boil the medicine, but I didn't expect to be bumped into before I tried it, you must not tell anyone about this, especially the ministers." Liu Zhi said.
Zhen Yufu, who was put in the pot, had already reached the point where Liu Zhi would listen to whatever he said, so he hurriedly grabbed Liu Zhi and asked anxiously, "Imperial Doctor Liu, what should I do?" Am I sick too? ”
Seeing that the other party was about to tear his clothes, Liu Zhi had no choice but to comfort a few words, and then entered the room and took out a few packets of medicinal materials from the medicine box and fell over.
"Queen Mother, the bag of medicine on the left, after I go back, it will be boiled into medicinal soup, and the other bag will be used to run for half an hour, so it will be fine, fortunately, the mother has not contacted the emperor, so the condition is not serious now." Liu Zhi said calmly.
Hearing that her condition was not serious, Zhen Yufu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, took Liu Zhi's medicine and left quickly.
After entering the room, he called out the father-in-law inside, "This time, it's really hard for you." ”
"It's okay, this is what a slave should do, now it is estimated that no one wants to come, and please bear with Imperial Doctor Liu, this mask is too hot to wear." The father-in-law complained.
"It's okay, after this incident, I think the queen and the others won't come to trouble again, and I can rest assured." Liu Zhi said.
It's just that Gu Ye left for seven days this time, and Liu Zhi had to delay it first.
For a suspicious person like Zhen Yufu, I don't have a few preparations, I'm afraid it's still not safe enough.
Two days later, Zhen Yufu, who was full of curiosity about the inside, came over with someone, but this time, I saw Liu Zhi burning the stove outside, and a very unpleasant smell of burning herbs came to my nose.
"Hmm... It stinks. Zhen Yufu smelled the smell and complained.
At this time, the soldiers couldn't stand it and left the scene, Liu Zhi had no way to let them help, when there was no one, he looked at Zhen Yufu in the distance, and immediately waved at her and signaled her to leave.
However, Zhen Yufu was of course unwilling to give up, thinking that as long as she survived, she would be able to contact Liu Zhi's plan, so she walked over with a closed breath.
