Early in the morning, Xiao Chengwen took a carriage and went to the palace.

The atmosphere in the palace was very strange.

Some people are worried, some people are smiling!

It's two extremes.

When they arrived at Changle Palace, everyone in the palace held their breath and didn't even dare to breathe.

I'm afraid to be cannon fodder!

Empress Dowager Tao didn't rest well all night, tossing and turning, and her bad mood was difficult to relieve.

Before dawn, she woke up.

When I woke up, I couldn't sleep, my mood was extremely bad, I lost my temper several times, and I scolded several palace people with a cane.

This time, the main hall will be lit with soothing incense!

Empress Dowager Tao finally quieted down and rested on the Arhat couch.

The steps are light and slightly deliberate.

still alarmed the Empress Dowager Tao, who closed her eyes and recuperated.

She opened her eyes and asked, "Has Prince Ping arrived?" ”

Young Eunuch Mei paused, and then hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Empress Dowager Qi, the prince has arrived." Do you want to announce him in? ”

"Let him in! Fuhongu sit up! ”

"No!"

After a while, Xiao Chengwen walked into the main hall.

"Son to the queen mother, please be in peace! How are the queen mothers these days? ”

"I'm tired of bothering, sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Xiao Chengwen sat on the ground at the bottom.

The wide robe and large sleeves are handsome and unparalleled.

Over the years, his appearance seems to have never changed, forever young and handsome, and sick and thin.

Empress Dowager Tao leaned on the pillow, tilted her body, and chose a position she felt most comfortable to lean on the couch.

She looked at her eldest son and felt a little emotional.

"It's hot, can you still stand it?"

"Thank you for the care of the queen mother, my son's health is still good and he can get through it."

"If you feel unwell, remember to ask the doctor to prescribe medicine. Don't be annoyed by this palace, your body has never been off medicine since birth. I'm really afraid that you have three long and two short, and one day you will be gone. ”

Xiao Chengwen lowered his head and smiled, a look of mockery flashed in his eyes, "The queen mother must be very surprised that her son can live to this day." And it looks like he can live for a few more years. ”

"What nonsense! Do you suspect that Hongu is looking forward to your early death? Ridiculous! You are the first child of this palace, and this palace only wants you to live a long life. ”

"It's my son's fault, I said the wrong thing, please forgive the queen mother."

Xiao Chengwen admitted his mistake very simply, but it did not prevent him from continuing to mock and disdain in his heart.

Empress Dowager Tao sighed, "Over the years, this palace has neglected to care about you, and it is right that you have grievances in your heart." This palace doesn't say anything about compensation, I just hope that you are healthy and don't walk in front of this palace. ”

"The son will definitely take care of his health and not let his mother's wish be disappointed." Xiao Chengwen said sarcastically seriously.

Empress Dowager Tao was very helpless, so she could only continue to sigh.

"Dingtao has not entered the palace for a long time. Have you visited her? The colt hasn't come back yet, and I don't know what the two of them are doing. Otherwise, when do you go and ask Dingtao what she plans to do? ”

"The queen mother is worried about Dingtao, why didn't she send someone to summon her to the palace for an audience?"

"The palace summoned her several times and let her live in the palace. She refused to live or die, and lost her temper with Hongu. Hongu really can't help her. She listens to you, so go and see her when you have time. In any case, she is the sister of your mother's compatriots. ”

"The queen mother can rest assured that her son will take the time to visit Dingtao."

Empress Dowager Tao took a sip of tea.

After chatting about homely things, it's time to get down to business.

She got straight to the point, "The emperor promoted Shi Wen to be the prime minister, and the opposition in the court came one after another, causing a lot of uproar. Don't you care? Aren't you afraid that the emperor will be confused and bewitched by Shi Wen? ”

Xiao Chengwen lowered his head and smiled, "What does the queen mother want me to do?" His Majesty favors Shi Wen more than anyone else. I don't think the emperor will listen to me. ”

Empress Dowager Tao waved her hand, "This palace knows that the emperor will not listen to your persuasion." The palace didn't expect you to persuade the emperor. Bengong wants to ask, is there a way for you to restrain Shi Wen and let Shi Wen not be so arrogant. Relying on His Majesty's favor, Shi Wen is simply lawless. Last night, he dared to stay in the palace to have dinner with the emperor, he simply didn't know whether he was alive or dead! ”

At this moment, Empress Dowager Tao was extremely disgusted with Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen.

disgusted to the point that it made her sick.

Xiao Chengwen thought for a while, and said after consideration: "If you want to balance Shi Wen, there is no one more suitable than the Political Affairs Hall. ”

Empress Dowager Tao was very disgusted, "A group of waste rice buckets in the political affairs hall, since Shi Wen became the prime minister, the political affairs hall has been defeated and retreated, and it is embarrassing!" This palace doesn't want to see those old things in the political hall, their mouths are better than anyone else's, and they are very watery when they do things, and they are all guys with low eyes.

Don't blame Your Majesty for reusing Shi Wen. Shi Wen can speak and do things, and he fits His Majesty's mind everywhere. Such courtiers are liked by this palace.

However, the ancestral family law is here, and the lessons of all dynasties are also here.

In the court, you must not let Shi Wen's family dominate, that is the way to take trouble!

Now, this palace can't control Your Majesty, and he won't listen to this palace's persuasion. This palace can only count on you, hoping that you can come forward to balance Shi Wen. If you need to go to court, this palace will do it for you. ”

Empress Dowager Tao is very generous.

Xiao Chengwen disagreed.

Generosity is just a choice after weighing the pros and cons, not sincere generosity.

He coughed lightly a few times, "The queen mother meant, my son understands." If you want to balance Shi Wen, you can only start from the court and your majesty. ”

"Can't you just find something different?"

"Don't forget the queen mother. He is now the prime minister, under one man, above ten thousand. Coupled with the soldiers and horses of Yuzhou, it can be described as a monstrous power. With such a strong courtier, it is ridiculous for you to let your son find something different! If Shi Wen is disgraced, he is by no means the only one who is disgraced. The entire court, Your Majesty, will be disgraced along with you. ”

"Listen to what you mean, do you support Shi Wen?"

Empress Dowager Tao couldn't believe that her son would support Shi Wen.

Xiao Chengwen shook his head and denied, "I don't support anyone, and I don't support Shi Wen." It's just that some things, after reaching a certain level, can only be solved by court means. If you want to drive away Shi Wen, it is useless to rely on the way of checks and balances. Because the emperor is already on his side, he is now a sure win! At this time, even if someone said that Shi Wen was going to rebel and could come up with evidence, the emperor would not believe it. Unless ......"

"Unless what?"

"Unless the emperor is ill and unable to serve, he cannot veto the decisions of the courtiers. But at the same time, Shi Wen will definitely not miss such an opportunity. He will take advantage of the opportunity to hold power and wait for the opportunity to suppress his colleagues. ”

"Can't you let Shi Wen get sick? As long as he is sick, he cannot go to court. If you can't go to the court and see the emperor every day, the palace doesn't believe that the emperor will continue to favor him. ”

Xiao Chengwen shook his head and smiled, as if he was laughing at the innocence of Empress Dowager Tao.

He thought for a moment and said, "Making Shi Wen sick is indeed a way. It's just that the consequences are unpredictable. ”

"Why is the consequences unpredictable?"

"If Shi Wen is sick at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not suspect that someone is doing something. As long as he has the slightest suspicion, he will definitely not sit still. With his ability, the momentum of the counterattack is unimaginably fierce, and I don't know how many people will die under his suspicion. Even His Majesty will be coerced by him. If he didn't hide it from his mother, his son didn't dare to take such a risk. ”

"You, you're ridiculous!"

Empress Dowager Tao was angry.

She gritted her teeth, "According to what you said, no one can move Shi Wen?" Don't you have nineteen guards in your hand, it's all decoration. ”

"Did the queen mother have any misunderstanding about the Nineteen Guards? The Nineteen Guards were not arrogant enough to assassinate the prime minister of the imperial court. Or is the Queen Mother forcing me to challenge the imperial power and empty Your Majesty? ”

Xiao Chengwen was angry.

The stability of the court lies in a balance of power.

The current court seems to be very chaotic and fiercely fighting.

In fact, to a certain extent, it is in a state of balance of power.

Shi Wen had the support of the emperor.

Behind several bigwigs in the political hall stand the world's big families, and even have the support of their clansmen.

If the two sides fight, it is not necessarily that the political hall will lose.

Of course, it's not that Shi Wen will lose.

The two powers, tearing each other apart and fighting.

It's also a balance.

Before, before Shi Wen entered Beijing, the power of the court was obviously unbalanced.

The officials of the family are powerful.

Clansmen and generals must stand aside.

The court has almost become a hall of words for the officials of the family.

Shi Wen was promoted to prime minister, and the situation of the family's officials was broken.

Although, Shi Wen is also from a family and also represents a family.

But his interests are obviously different from those of other family officials.

It can even be called the tip of the needle to the wheat.

Use the family to deal with the family......

I have to admit that the emperor is crooked.

This step is the right one!

The unbalanced power structure of the court has been brought back on track.

The only thing worth worrying about is that the emperor is too fond of Shi Wen and is too trusted.

It is likely that there will be another imbalance of power.

This was also a key point of concern for other courtiers.

Today, the consequences of a rash upset of the balance are unpredictable.

If the emperor is smarter, he should take advantage of the current situation to maintain the checks and balances of power in the court.

It's just that the emperor went crazy and couldn't listen to anyone's persuasion.

At this time, what should be done is to make the emperor come to his senses.

It is by no means engaging in intrigue and trickery, setting a very bad example for future generations.

The court needs to fight openly and uprightly.

If there are any contradictions, dissatisfactions, rights and wrongs, everyone puts them on the table and makes moves to each other.

Who wins and loses depends on who is better skilled and who is luckier.

All kinds of villain tricks, of course, can also be used.

But in a struggle like Shi Wen's level, the next means will only bring bad atmosphere, and its destructive power is too terrifying!

So......

When Empress Dowager Tao proposed a trick to make Shi Wen sick, Xiao Chengwen was so angry.

In the struggle at the level of the court prime minister, what do you think about engaging in villain tricks?

Do you really think that this is a harem struggle, or a backhouse struggle, all by poison?

Ridiculous!

The struggle in the court is a game of "potential".

What kind of poison, the villain tricks of the inner house struggle, all stand aside!

Don't come out and be embarrassed.

Empress Dowager Tao said angrily: "You can't think of a way, this palace will find a way for you." You even accuse Hongu of being ridiculous. This palace looks at you, it's getting more and more ridiculous! ”
