Chapter 34: Gu Simiao

"Is there such a brazen person in the world?"

Purple Pole City, Purple Chen Palace.

The empress frowned slightly, looking at Fang Yu in front of her, who was half-kneeling on the ground to report to her about today's affairs in the Lu family's courtyard, her face was full of disgust.

"When Huaiyu's future was uncertain, he decisively repented of his marriage, and now Huaiyu has a bright future and shamelessly comes to the door to beg for remarriage, and even this kind of thing is done, and sure enough, businessmen are incorruptible and shameful."

Jiang Chengdao on the side shrugged his shoulders.

"Merchants, it's been like this since ancient times, and there's nothing strange about it."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked Fang Yu to go back, then pointed to the official documents piled up into a hill on the empress's table, and said slowly:

"Rather than that kind of inconsequential trivial, Your Majesty, you should focus on the official business that needs to be dealt with urgently."

After a pause, he continued:

"The party henchmen of the Queen Mother's family have all been verified, and now the anti-party in Beijing has almost been cleaned up, and the arrest warrants for the remnants of the party in various places have basically been issued, and it is estimated that they will be escorted into Beijing one after another in the next few days."

Hearing this, the empress opened an official document a little absent-mindedly for some reason, and at the same time replied casually:

"Wenchen is not worried, otherwise the successive dynasties would not have given Wenchen such a high status, the focus is on the military attaché, the queen mother has been in chaos for six years, but she can firmly control the world, and it must be inseparable from the support of the military attaché, the three major battalions and the forbidden army are the best examples."

The forbidden army is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, responsible for guarding the division and stabilizing the world, and it stands to reason that it should be the emperor's greatest reliance.

But in the Shenghe Dynasty, it was completely the opposite.

The middle and high-level generals of the forbidden army were all controlled by the queen mother, making the entire forbidden army of 800,000 soldiers and horses completely become the queen mother's minions, even if the queen mother has been characterized as a demon queen who is controlled by evil and controls the dynasty, they still spare no effort to support the queen mother's counterattack on Luojing, without caring about the life or death of her emperor.

Although the Queen Mother has average governing ability, she has an extraordinary talent for power struggle, and knows the importance of the army better than anyone else.

Therefore, in addition to the forbidden army, there must be many henchmen of the queen mother in other armies.

In this regard, the empress is not very worried about the chaos in the world.

After all, she held the power of the most powerful saint in the world, and no matter how powerful the army was, it could not be the opponent of the Cangming army led by Jiang Chengdao.

Although due to the limitation of distance and the duties of the Holy King himself, the empress could only ensure the absolute rule of the Si Li's generation, but it was enough for her.

As long as you are invincible, you are not afraid of someone committing trouble.

What's more, the righteousness is still in her hands.

After all, only a few people dare to rebel, and only those who have committed the most heinous crimes and the remnants of the party who are very close to the Queen Mother will go to the extreme when there is no way out.

They are also the hidden dangers that the empress is most concerned about solving now.

Jiang Chengdao responded: "The edict of the New Yuan Grand Ceremony has been issued, and anyone who does not remove his armor and enter Beijing or does not send his son-in-law to Beijing to pay homage to Beijing and cannot come up with a legitimate reason can be regarded as rebellion." ”

"Hmm."

The empress nodded slightly, then turned her head inexplicably, looking at the northwest direction of the map of the world hanging on the wall not far away, and her face gradually revealed a trace of solemnity.

Jiang Chengdao also looked at it, and then as if he had seen through the empress's thoughts, he said in a deep voice:

"The biggest problem now is undoubtedly the general of the Pillar Kingdom who guards the Desert Heaven City, the one who was born in a family of generals, who commanded the 700,000 Cangling army at the age of twenty-three and defeated the alien races of the Cangwu Ice Plain so that he couldn't raise his head, and in just two years, he made great achievements for the imperial court, and he was a world-famous general,—— Gu Simiao."

Hearing this name, the empress finally completely regained her mind.

"The youngest Pillar General in the history of Great Xia... ......"

Jiang Chengdao bowed slightly: "The most important thing is that she is also the fiancée of Zhao Feifei, the most trusted leader of the younger generation of the Zhao family, Empress Dowager Zhao." ”

"When the rebels were defeated, Empress Dowager Zhao and Xiahou Yan led the remnants of the army to flee to the northwest, thinking that they would go to her good nephew and daughter-in-law, and wanted to make a comeback with the help of the power of the Cangling army and compete with Your Majesty for the world."

Hearing this, the empress's heart suddenly tightened.

"Will the 700,000 border troops defect like the forbidden army?"

"Who knows?"

Jiang Chengdao shrugged.

"Although the Eight Great Pillars have always guarded the frontier and have not been involved in the court, if there is a shocking change in the court, it will be another matter, no matter what, everything should be careful and prepare for the worst at any time."

The empress lowered her eyes.

"Any news over there?"

"Nope."

Jiang Chengdao said indifferently: "Even the edict sent out before, there is no response, in this case, no news is the worst news." ”

As the words fell, a gust of wind blew in through the windowsill, and the candles in the candlesticks swayed, making the empress's little face look a little flickering in the flickering candlelight.

After a moment, she quietly clenched her fists.

"It seems that you have to prepare early."

Jiang Chengdao took out an official document from his arms at the right time and handed it to the empress.

"Ten days ago, Nanpi Gu's family had frequent changes, and his children in the army also had suspicious signs, at this juncture, it always felt a little subtle."

Hearing this, the empress's eyes suddenly turned cold.

…………

Lu Chen naturally didn't know about the things in the palace.

Early the next morning, he went to the Liuke Corridor to clock in and go to work as always.

After all, the characters have been established, and if the characters are too violated, the ghost knows if he will be invited to tea by the Evil Division.

There is no court meeting today, so there is no need to go to the Taiji Palace, just slowly ponder how to use the power to make trouble for yourself in the Liuke Corridor.

However, as soon as he sat down, before his buttocks were hot, he saw a young eunuch come over with a large pile of official documents.

Seeing the pile of official documents, Lu Chen inexplicably had an ominous premonition.

"Lord Lu, the slave maid is giving you a greeting~"

He greeted Lu Chen with a flattering face, and carefully placed the official document on the table in front of Lu Chen.

Lu Chen looked at him with a black question mark on his face: "Father-in-law, ...... are you?"

"Ouch!"

Hearing that Lu Chen actually called himself by an honorific title, the eunuch was flattered and exclaimed, and then hurriedly said: "The slave maid is just an ordinary servant, but he can't be called the 'father-in-law' of Lord Lu, Lord Lu, you call the slave and maid 'Xiao Li', it is a great honor for the slave and maid~"

Lu Chen: "......"

He had forgotten that although this world was similar to the ancient society before the time travel, there were still many differences.

Here, although the empress is relatively rare, it is not unacceptable, so the status of women in this world is not as low as the feudal society in his previous life, and women are more successful in officials and business.

In the palace, because the emperor is not necessarily a man, in order to avoid the obscene court of the palace people, whether it is a eunuch or a palace maid, they are eunuchs who cannot have children.

Among the eunuchs, only eunuchs with higher power positions, such as eunuchs with palm seals, were qualified to be called fathers-in-law.

His "father-in-law" was indeed a little upset.

Shaking his head, Lu Chen was about to open his mouth to ask again, and the eunuch who called himself Xiao Li hurriedly said: "Lord Lu, these are all official affairs handled by His Majesty last night, most of them are about the Ministry of Officials, Your Majesty has a saying, Lord Lu, you are outstanding in learning, you can be called a peerless national soldier in this dynasty, and sooner or later you will enter the Ministry of Officials, so you should familiarize yourself with the government affairs of the Ministry of Officials as soon as possible, and prepare as soon as possible, so as to share your Majesty's worries as soon as possible." ”

After a pause and a slight breath, Xiao Li immediately added: "And Your Majesty said that these official documents need to be approved by Lord Lu before they can take effect, otherwise they will be rejected and redone." ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

What the heck?

The official document of the Ministry of Officials needs to be approved by my engineering department before it can take effect?

What does the clerk do in the matter?

People are doing their jobs in a good manner, and they have always been conscientious, and they haven't recruited anyone to provoke anyone, so why do you want to target others like this?

Bah! Faint!
