In the blink of an eye, it was a dark day in June, although there was only a rainstorm in the afternoon, so that the sky was still gloomy after the rain turned weak, but because in today's Zichen Palace, the Son of Heaven did not indulge in wine and music, and the heavy curtains in the dormitory were separated, but they seemed to be a little brighter than before. Gu Huaien, the inner chamberlain, hung his arms and stood three steps away from the imperial seat, and the corner of his eyes saw that after June 13, he once again joined forces with the important ministers of the three major political affairs halls bowed down with a relaxed face, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but be sharp.

After the Son of Heaven waved his sleeves, Gu Huaien took a step back and bent his spine even lower, dropped behind the three leaders, made a gesture of respect, and watched the three of them slowly step down the jade steps, this internal official who had won the trust of the first emperor Dezong couldn't help but slightly squint the corners of his eyes that had been extended with tail lines, and his expression looked more and more solemn.

The three Xiangguo's trip today is really a rehash of the old words, but the rhetoric is a little more euphemistic than half a month ago-

Seeing that the scorching heat was coming, and the saint had not recovered from his illness for a long time, he advised Xingyuhua Palace to recuperate, and the major affairs of national affairs should be officially entrusted to the Queen Mother.

It's just a change of soup and not a change of medicine, and the intention is still to persuade the Son of Heaven to completely hand over power and help the Queen Mother to listen to the government.

Not to mention that Gu Huaien was really loyal to the son of today because of the order before the collapse of Dezong, he only mentioned the relationship of his own interests, and he did not want to see the queen mother seize power and the son of heaven completely lose power.

He and the inner supervisor Dou Fu'an in the Hanxiang Palace entered the palace at the same time, and for decades he was not without intrigue and fierce competition, when Dezong Dynasty he overwhelmed Dou Fu'an, but Xiao Cui was defeated by the King of Jin and lost the prince, so that Dou Fu'an, who served Wei's, had a chance to turn over, and now, he has been on an equal footing with him, and even if it were not for Dezong's deathbed entrustment, he will continue to regard him as a close confidant, and he will shelter several times in the open and secret, but he is afraid that he has already been stepped into the dust by Dou Fu'an.

If the queen mother really gets her wish, in the future, I am afraid that this internal service province will only be Dou Fu'an king and hegemon, and he can only shrink in the Zichen Palace, and there will be no future.

However, what makes Gu Huaien helpless is that even if the Son of Heaven believes in it, his status is not as good as the biological mother of the Queen Mother, and seeing that although the Son of Heaven does not have a good face for the three prime ministers today, he seems to have accepted the reality and is still unwilling to disobey the wishes of the Queen Mother.

"First Emperor, the old slave is really shameless." Although the eunuch with gray temples muttered to himself, but there was not much shame on his face, he turned around, and saw a eunuch in the door happened to be visiting, and when his eyes touched, he immediately moved away, and he looked more and more ghostly.

Gu Huaien couldn't help but snort coldly.

He knew very well that Li Tianfu, the eunuch who was transferred to the Zichen Palace three years ago to serve the imperial front, was the eyes and ears of the Queen Mother, and he had no choice but to persuade the Son of Heaven to alienate him, let alone eradicate it without authorization, and even could only watch Li Tianfu move step by step from the duty of pouring tea and wine to be qualified to serve the inner hall.

After all, the Queen Mother is the mother of a saint, and it is impossible to have a poisonous heart, but then she serves the inner hall, doesn't she have the opportunity to peek into the secrets?

However, although the Son of Heaven must be tested for poison when drinking, he must also beware of someone using chronic poisons to murder, so those who handle the food need to be changed from time to time, which causes Li Tianfu to be able to change his name justifiably, the Son of Heaven does not take precautions against the Queen Mother, and Gu Huaien has no way to obstruct it.

But now, even if you have this eyes and ears, you have to fight against the water.

Gu Huaien secretly made up his mind, returned to the Son of Heaven first, glanced at the Son of Heaven's rather tired face, and persuaded in a low voice: "Tomorrow there will be a Shuo Sun Dynasty meeting, although the saint is not good at drinking today, but it is boring to sit idly, why not invite the concubine to come over or play, or talk and laugh, wouldn't it be pleasant to be physically and mentally, the sky is not good, and it is easier to be sleepy, only sleeping too much during the day, I am worried about insomnia at night, and it is inevitable to be tired tomorrow morning." ”

Seeing that the Son of Heaven bowed slightly, the eunuch breathed a sigh of relief and explained to Qin Sang: "Eunuch Guo will go to the Zilan Hall to ask for a concubine." ”

Although Qin Sang is still a palace person at the moment, but because she looks like the queen, she is even respected by the Son of Heaven, and she has been in Zichen Hall for a long time, of course, she can also see that Gu Huaien is not the eyes and ears of the Queen Mother, not to mention that Gu Huaien is a "senior" who has been in the palace for half his life, of course, it can be seen that although Qin Sang is installed by the Queen Mother, he is actually of the same heart as the Son of Heaven.

Half a month ago, Gu Huaien saw that Qin Sang turned around and went to inform the concubine after learning that the Son of Heaven was born to hand over power, and he was even more sure that the Queen Mother was afraid that she would be ambushed this time.

Therefore, although the two have not colluded in private, they both know the alliance at this time.

Let Qin Sang invite the concubine, it will inevitably leak the news that the queen mother's thief is not dead, and it is not a secret that the concubine and the queen mother are opposed, and if there is, only the concubine dares to speak out in front of the Son of Heaven.

Gu Huaien followed closely and persuaded the Son of Heaven: "It's just raining, presumably the Fangqing Pavilion is cooler and more ventilated, if the old slave goes down, let people cook tea soup first." ”

In this way, all the ears and eyes of the Queen Mother can be removed.

In fact, even if there is no arrangement for Gu Huaien, the concubine will take this trip today, He Ye expects that after Liu Xuanqing's case is settled, the queen mother will inevitably take advantage of the Shuo Dynasty to do something, and it is suggested that the time has come today, and the concubine can act according to the plan. However, with Gu Huaien's arrangement, the concubine is more trouble-free, and many words will not seem too blunt and premeditated.

He Yan also said that since he was notified by the three prime ministers half a month ago that the Queen Mother had a formal determination to listen to the government, he had already made preparations at the Wangri court meeting and allowed it logically when Xie Raoping admonished, and even calculated how he should persuade if someone refuted it, but the court meeting was calm, and as always, he only went through the motions, and nothing happened.

Of course, He Yan was not so ignorant as to pass on the edict to the three prime ministers to question "why did he break his word", and it was even more impossible to go to the Queen Mother to ask what had happened, and the Son of Heaven, who had no intention of doing secular affairs, used the "inheritance" left to him by the first emperor for the first time - to explain to the shadow guard.

So the Son of Heaven knew that Liu Xuanqing had done something bad, and he was worried that Rong Guogong was only afraid of causing death this time, and he was originally planning whether he should beg for mercy in front of the Queen Mother, and he was drunk, so he actually put this matter behind him for the time being, and after a few days, he heard that Liu Xuanqing committed suicide in fear of crime, and Wei Yuanping came forward to try it, and actually confirmed Liu Xuanqing's crime, and the Son of Heaven simply let it go and indulged in the sluggish life of drinking and enjoying as usual.

He only thought that the banner of Our Lady Xingzhou was not easy to use anymore, and the Queen Mother had to temporarily stop fighting, but unexpectedly, only half a month later, Xie Raoping and Ping actually brought up the old matter again.

What excuse does my mother use to openly listen to politics? He Yan couldn't help but think about this as well, and the funny thing was that it was more out of curiosity.

Therefore, although the Son of Heaven thought about it, he didn't waste too much on this matter, but considered the details of going to Yuhua Palace for summer vacation after handing over power.

The younger brother He Ye must be brought with him, maybe the queen mother will order the harem concubines to follow, but in addition to the concubine, He Yan really doesn't want to bring a lot of irritability, dignified sons, facing the complete loss of power, he is just at a loss for such details.

When the concubine received the edict, the Son of Heaven didn't care that there were Gu Huaien and Qin Sang around him, so he opened his mouth and told the concubine: "Sister, after tomorrow, I will prepare to go to Yuhua Palace for summer vacation." ”

The Son of Heaven took the initiative to bring up the topic, and the concubine only felt that she was wishing, but she pretended to be surprised: "The saint wants to be lucky in Yuhua Palace?" Although it has been a practice for generations to take a summer retreat, can the saint not be worried about being too laborious and unwilling to visit the palace? ”

The Son of Heaven is fortunate to say goodbye to the palace, of course, it is impossible to be so light and provincial, the guard of honor does not mention, even if the princes and nobles do not all follow the car, but the civil and military officials must follow, even if He Yan has not asked about political affairs for a long time, but he can't take it seriously, if the edict is not approved by the Son of Heaven, how can it be implemented? And the imperial seal of the dragon seal cannot be entrusted to others under any circumstances, of course, unless the Son of Heaven announces the handover of power and allows others to govern.

The questioning of the concubine naturally caused the Son of Heaven to admit that he had given birth to power.

Qin Sang was anxious in his heart, staring at the concubine without blinking his eyes, even Gu Huaien, who was old and serious, hung his heart in his throat, secretly stared at the concubine's expression, and even held back his breath.

If the concubine can't persuade the Son of Heaven to change his mind, I'm afraid that this time it will really be a failure!

The concubine remained silent, only holding up a cup to drink tea.

Although it was cool and pleasant in Fangqing Pavilion because of a rainstorm earlier, it was quiet for half a moment, but Gu Huaien's forehead was sweaty, but just when he was about to be disheartened, he finally heard the concubine open her mouth-

"Sage, the concubine has a advice, I can't bear it anymore!"

"The concubine has been under the care of the queen for two years, and she really can't bear to see the real murderer of the queen who poisons the queen behind the scenes, so she asked for the help of the king of Jin, so that Qianniu prepared He Yan secretly checked that Ji De had relatives who were controlled, it is reported that Ji De's parents and sisters-in-law were mourned, and the only younger brother was controlled by Xie Xiang!"

"Ji De committed suicide, and his brother was also killed!"

"Sage, it shows that Ji De was threatened by Xie Xiang with his younger brother, so he had the audacity to poison the queen, and the reason why he committed suicide was also to keep his younger brother safe!"

"The concubine body knows the truth, and she wants to be a saint, but Xie Xiang has already killed the person, and the concubine body hesitates."

The reason why the concubine has this sentence is, of course, because He Yan was originally a confidant of the Son of Heaven, if the Son of Heaven asked, He Yan would not hide that he had already found out about the matter, and the concubine had to find an excuse for not exposing Xie Xiang until this time.

"Sage, why did Prime Minister Xie poison the queen? When he was jealous, the only thing that made Xie Xiang jealous was nothing more than Pei Zheng's conspiracy against the big case! It should be that the saint is worried that the saint will listen to the queen's advice and look through the case! Sage, Xie Xiang is afraid of overturning the case, doesn't it mean that he has a ghost in his heart, so the concubine boldly guesses that there must be grievances in the case of Pei Zheng's rebellion, and he framed Zhongliang for Xie Xiang! ”

"Xie Raoping was first promoted, Pei Xiang once objected, it must be Xie Raoping who holds a grudge because of this!"

"Xie Raoping is now the prime minister of the country, and he is not self-sufficient, so he dares to instigate the queen mother to listen to the government, just because the queen mother is deceived by him and trusts her! The saint is the honor of the Ninety-Five, Xie Raoping knows that the dragon body is not a big problem, and the reason why the saint has no intention of political affairs is because of mourning the queen, but as a minister, he does not know good advice, but instead bewitches the saint to continue to be depressed, disloyal and unjust, and the ambition of the wolf is obvious! ”

"Zhongliang was wronged, the queen died in vain, and the saint can ignore it, but the Great Zhou Kingdom is declining, and even the country is not protected, how can the saint ignore it! The saint is filial, so he doesn't want to disobey the queen mother, but does the saint forget the emperor's dying will? How could the military politics be handed over to a traitor like Xie Raoping? The concubine is really worried, the queen mother listens to the government, she must be more trusted, thank you, Mao traitorous party, I don't know how many loyal and good people will follow in the footsteps of Pei Zheng in the future, when the saint arrives, how to face the ancestors of the Great Zhou, how to be called filial piety! ”

Gu Huaien couldn't help but be thrilled when he heard these words, and when he saw that the Son of Heaven was shocked but was silent for a long time, he didn't care too much at the moment, he knelt on the ground, and admonished in a trembling voice: "Old slave courage, please think twice with the saint!" ”
