Xie Linzhi had already left the imperial study.

Shen Jiu sat on the dragon chair and gently waved the book in front of him.

She didn't understand Xie Linzhi's expression before leaving, but she figured out something.

Xie Linzhi can be in power, but she can't be a puppet emperor.

As long as she is a puppet emperor with no real power, then there is no way for her to stand on an equal footing with Xie Linzhi. He knew her every move, but she couldn't spy on him.

No matter what Xie Linzhi does, she can only passively bear it.

She is his puppet, and this kind of unilateral control is destined to be impossible to be honest with.

Shen Jiu stared at the book in front of him for a while, and frowned slightly.

Although Xie Linzhi only told her in the morning that he was willing to give up the right, judging from the conversation just now, he had obviously changed his mind.

Then if she wants power now, she can only take it from Xie Lin's hands.

This matter is not easy, Xie Linzhi has been in power for a long time, and she has missed the best period when he is not in the imperial court.

But—

Although this matter is difficult, fortunately there is a person who has been hiding in the shadows.

That person has been stirring up the court, wanting her to confront Xie Linzhi and make the muddy waters of the court even more turbid.

He gave her a clear opportunity to gain the support of her courtiers.

Draft.

Shen Jiu lowered his head, pulled out the folds that had been piled up on the side before, found the excerpts about the draft in it, and roughly read the draft list.

The emperor's first draft must be grand.

The draft roster basically includes the children of all courtiers.

Shen Jiu changed his posture and beckoned to Defu, who was standing on the side: "Come here." ”

She pointed to the list in front of her: "Which family sent the daughter of the in-law?" ”

The harem is a deep pool, and most courtiers who love their children are reluctant to send their daughters in, plus she is a puppet emperor, even if it is for the sake of powerful courtiers, they will not send their daughters.

In this case, those who are willing to send their daughters over basically want to show their sincerity to her.

Defu looked at the list that Shen Jiu was pinching for a while, hesitated for a while, and then carefully pointed to a few names: "These girls." ”

He read a few official positions smoothly, and then said in a low voice: "It's the concubines of these ministers." ”

Shen Jiu wrote down their names and official positions, and planned to observe them in the morning court in two days, and then sneak in touch.

She put aside the draft list, thought about the situation in the imperial court for a while, and then sighed again: "Take your time." ”

Defu looked at her blankly: "What take your time?" ”

Shen Jiu was amused by his expression.

She waved her hand, and instead of answering his question, she said gently, "How did the prime minister know that I was checking his information?" ”

Shen Jiu turned his head to look at Defu: "Did you send my whereabouts to Xie Linzhi?" ”

She asked casually, but Defu was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The slave doesn't." ”

Shen Jiu had found out that he had reported on his daily life for a long time, but she had never paid attention to it, and this was the first time she had asked.

Defu said in a low voice: "The slave only reports His Majesty's daily life, and only reports once a day. ”

Shen Jiu lowered his eyebrows slightly: "That's the others." She sighed with her chin propped up, and her voice was slightly prolonged: "Around me, there are still too many people in the prime minister." ”
