Splendid Palace

Empress Dowager Su leaned on the soft couch, her eyes squinting slightly. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info a woman of her age has an irresistible charm, not to mention that she is indeed a beautiful woman who can't bear to look away. All the beauty that a mature woman should have can be seen in her, and she also has a face that is attractive enough.

But every time he saw her, Mu Changyan felt that what he was in front of him was not a person, but a gloomy skeleton.

"Queen Mother, what are your instructions for calling your sons?"

Mu Changyan lowered his head and asked, as if he didn't dare to look at the face of the Empress Dowager Su who was overwhelmed. I didn't dare to look at her half-exposed breasts and the white greasy skin that was faintly visible under the tulle.

"What do you think about the affairs of the military department?"

Empress Dowager Su asked in a very soft tone, strangely as if she was not asking as the queen mother.

Mu Changyan still didn't dare to raise his head: "Erchen is also very disappointed in Chen Zaiyan, if the matter is true, it will be dealt with in strict accordance with Dayan's law, and it will not be tolerated." Chen Zaiyan was newly promoted by Erchen, and Erchen was also at fault. Therefore, if Chen Zaiyan really collaborates with the enemy and betrays the country, the son is willing to issue an edict against himself. ”

Empress Dowager Su shook her head slowly: "That's not necessary, although your vision in employing people is a little worse, no one would have thought that Chen Zaiyan would do such a rebellious thing." As the king of a country, you have too many things to manage, and it is not a big fault for you not to investigate one person. Fortunately, Su Zong's work is quite meticulous and prudent, otherwise he doesn't know how big a mess will be. Once the front line is defeated because of Chen Zaiyan, hundreds of thousands of troops, plus millions of people on the border, don't know how many people will die. ”

She habitually stretched out her hand, and the little maid hurriedly came over to help her. She looked at the little maid and realized that Li Changlu had disappeared for a long time, and now there is no one alive or dead.

She is used to Li Changlu being by her side, and no matter what it is, Li Changlu is very important to her.

She waved her hand a little annoyed: "You all go out, I still have important matters to discuss with the king." ”

Several maids hurriedly bowed and withdrew, each with fear on their faces.

After everyone retreated, Empress Dowager Su raised her hand and combed the hair hanging down from her forehead: "There is actually nothing to say about this matter, there is all the human and material evidence, so it can basically be conclusive." I called you today to tell you something else......"

Mu Changyan said: "Please make it clear to the queen mother." ”

Empress Dowager Su said: "The affairs of the Ministry of War cannot be handled by anyone. You should choose someone as soon as possible, after all, the hearts of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the front line can't be cold. Although I don't know how to lead troops, I also know how hard this incident hit the soldiers. The military department Shangshu is actually a person from an enemy country, so presumably the hatred in their hearts is also very strong. ”

"Therefore, the first is to deal with Chen Zaiyan as soon as possible, the evidence is ironclad, and the case cannot be overturned. Second, it is necessary to arrange for someone to take up the post of secretary of the military department as soon as possible and give an explanation to the front-line officers and soldiers. ”

She glanced at Mu Changyan: "But this time, your eyes will be brighter when you choose someone." ”

In Mu Changyan's cuffs, his two fists were already clenched tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were exposed. In Mu Changyan's opinion, this matter is clearly the queen mother's ghost. He thought that in the face of major rights and wrongs, the Queen Mother would be more restrained. After all, this is a matter involving the national body, once the war against Youguo fails, then Yan Kingdom will inevitably usher in a disaster.

Now it seems that he still overestimated the bottom line of the Queen Mother.

"The sons and daughters all listen to the queen mother. ”

"Listen to me?"

Empress Dowager Su's eyebrows raised upward: "You are the king of a country, what is it that you listen to me in everything? I brought you back because I knew that you could take on this important responsibility and would not disappoint the previous king." It is precisely because I believe in your abilities that I am so reassuring and even indulgent to you. You can't beat yourself up just because you fail in your choice of a person. ”

"Of course ......"

Empress Dowager Su's tone changed: "It is estimated that your heart must be in turmoil these days, after all, Chen Zaiyan is the person you personally selected." So I think you may not be able to handle state affairs calmly for the time being...... In that case, I'll make decisions for you for the time being. ”

She connected very quickly, and she didn't give Mu Changyan a chance to interject at all. Mu Changyan's hand clenched tighter, and he almost couldn't help but explode.

But he knew that in this room, there must be a great master. Once you really do it yourself, you will be subdued if you can't even touch the side of the Queen Mother. It's not time to completely turn your face yet, you have to endure, you have to endure.

"Erchen thanks the queen mother for her compassion, Erchen has indeed been a little dizzy in the past two days. ”

Mu Changyan said: "Since the queen mother already has an option, then the minister will turn around and make a direct order." ”

Empress Dowager Su shook her head: "Don't bother you, I know you have a lot of things, even if you don't need to take care of the affairs of the Ministry of War, there are so many other things that you need to work hard in such a big country." Therefore, I have already helped you think about the appointment and dismissal of the personnel of the Ministry of War. I have already sent someone to pass on the decree and promoted Ma Ziwei to the secretary of the military department, what do you think?"

Mu Changyan's heart was shocked.

Ma Ziwei?

Ma Ziwei is the person who Chen Zaiyan picked up with one hand, and he is regarded as Chen Zaiyan's cronies, how could the Queen Mother promote Ma Ziwei to be the secretary of the military department? In an instant, Mu Changyan's back was chilled...... Yes, it turned out that Ma Ziwei was the queen mother's person, and even Chen Zaiyan looked away.

No wonder the Queen Mother took down Chen Zaiyan so easily, no wonder the so-called certified physical evidence is so complete, it turned out to be Ma Ziwei's ghost behind the scenes.

"Erchen...... Just listen to the queen mother. ”

Empress Dowager Su nodded with satisfaction: "I'll just say, you are a reasonable person." Although Ma Ziwei is also the person who Chen Zaiyan picked up, fortunately, he is honest and loyal, and Chen Zaiyan's old department is handed over to him to manage, and nothing will go wrong. That's it......"

She stood up and walked to the window with a thin veil draped in: "Let this matter be decided, this is already the best result." In addition, let's talk about the ...... of the martial arts institute This collaboration with the enemy and treason involved a lot of people, and many of them came from the Martial Academy. And Yan Chu, the president of the Martial Arts Academy, is actually Chen Zaiyan's comrade, which I didn't expect. ”

"So, the Autumn Ceremony...... I don't think it's time for the Martial Arts Academy to be involved anymore. Of course, there are still many outstanding young talents in the martial arts academy, and these people are the pillars of Dayan. These people can't grow up in a filthy environment, so I plan to select the more outstanding people in the Martial Academy and send them to the Dading Academy. ”

"Dading Academy is opened by the royal family, and of course the loyalty to Dayan will be higher. For the time being, remove the Martial Academy from the list of the Autumn Ceremony, of course, I don't mean to close the Martial Academy, but to put it in order. When the atmosphere of the martial arts academy is clean in the future, then it will not be difficult to reopen the martial arts academy. ”

"Erchen...... Erchen had some immature ideas. ”

Mu Changyan said: "This year is the first year of the expansion of the Martial Academy, and there are many female disciples, this is all the grace of the Queen Mother." Once the martial arts academy is temporarily closed, and the martial arts academy is not allowed to participate in the autumn ceremony...... Then for these students, I am afraid that it is only a big blow. The most terrible thing is that it hits the belief of those poor children to serve Dayan. ”

"So Erchen thinks that if any of them are willing to stay in the martial arts, they should stay. Those who are willing to transfer to Dading College are naturally the best. ”

Empress Dowager Su thought about it, and this matter couldn't force Mu Changyan too quickly. The affairs of the military department are the major matters, and the affairs of the martial arts academy are just piggybacking. Since Mu Changyan has compromised on major matters, it doesn't matter if he can slow down on small matters. The most important thing is that it is said that most of the students of the Martial Arts Academy are willing to transfer to the Dading Academy, and the Martial Arts Academy has already existed in name only.

"It's okay, it reflects the following of my Dayan's generosity and tolerance. ”

"If there is nothing else, the son will retire first. ”

"Go ahead. ”

Empress Dowager Su said: "I'm also tired, I want to rest...... Besides, you send someone to supervise it. Li Changlu, the chief eunuch of the Splendid Palace, has been missing for a while, and it is not good for Dayan's face. If this case is not solved as soon as possible, the people will say that our officials in Dayan are all waste. ”

"Erchen remembers. ”

Mu Changyan didn't want to stay in front of this demon-like woman for more than a second, and bowed back. When I walked to the door, I saw Zhen Xiaodao, the eunuch who was newly promoted by Empress Dowager Su and the acting head of the Splendid Palace, running over all the way. Seeing Mu Changyan, Zhen Xiaodao hurriedly lowered his head and stepped aside: "Meet the king." ”

Mu Changyan asked, "What's so urgent?" ”

Zhen Xiaodao hesitated for a moment, but still replied: "Back to the king, there was a thief on the side of the military department, and the new military department Shangshu Ma Ziwei was kidnapped. ”

Mu Changyan's heart moved, and he nodded quietly: "Then go and report to the Queen Mother." ”

After finishing speaking, Mu Changyan walked away quickly, thinking in his heart that this must be someone from the military department who was saving himself. He never believed that Chen Zaiyan would collaborate with the enemy and commit treason, but because everyone was in the Splendid Palace, he couldn't find evidence at all. Now that Ma Ziwei has been arrested, it may be a turning point for this matter.

He hadn't gone far before he heard the roar of the Empress Dowager Su behind him. Mu Changyan picked the corners of his mouth upward, and said in his heart that there was finally something to be happy about today.

As soon as he returned to the East Warm Pavilion of Tianji Palace, An Chengli rushed back from outside: "King, there is something important. ”

Mu Changyan asked everyone to withdraw, and then asked, "But what about Ma Ziwei being arrested?"

An Chengli said: "Yes...... It's not about Ma Ziwei being arrested. But...... Ma Ziwei was caught by one of our people. Not long ago, Ma Ziwei was sent to the location of our Xuanwu camp. Now Ma Ziwei has been closely guarded by our people, and his confession has been made. ”

"It turned out that this matter was all done by the ghost, the ghost was defeated on the battlefield, and as a last resort, he gave the general Su Zong priceless treasures and a few peerless beauties, Su Zong took the benefits of the ghost and fabricated evidence that Chen Zaiyan collaborated with the enemy and treason. Now that Ma Ziwei has confessed, this matter seems to have taken a turn for the better. ”

Mu Changyan asked, "Who caught the person?"

"Yes...... Ann Zheng. ”

An Chengli said: "The slave maid didn't expect that An Zheng would be so bold and able to arrest people from the well-defended military headquarters." There are now two masters there, Lu Tianhui and Zhao Zishan of the Splendid Palace. The strength of these two people is unfathomable. ”

So the slave maid thought that it should be done by the rest of the military department and An Zheng. ”

Mu Changyan's face obviously improved: "An Zheng...... Lone knows that this young man can become a great man! Lone knows that Lone's reuse of him will not be useless at all! You let Ma Ziwei be closely protected, and this person is very important. In addition, according to Ma Ziwei's confession, to arrest people, not only must there be a turnaround, but also take the opportunity to get rid of a group of people from the Queen Mother's side. That's right...... Where did An Zheng go?"

An Chengli said: "The people in the Xuanwu camp don't know, An Zheng said that he was looking for a place to hide for a few days. After all, this matter is too heavy, and he still has relatives by his side. ”

Mu Changyan snorted: "That's right, let him avoid it, don't show up for the time being, don't show up on any occasion!"
