Chapter 236: Seizure of power
It's not a good thing that the people in the court are too united, Zhao Zhe stayed awake for a few nights, thinking of ways to make the interests of the people of the six departments conflict, so as to stand in different camps.
And the defeat at the border pass this time obviously gave him a headache. It was clear that the Yuzhen Kingdom, which could be defeated very easily, was defeated at the last critical moment? There was no battle report at the border pass to explain the situation, only a report on the casualties and losses and a request for additional support for grain and grass.
Because Zhao Zhe's most important cronies in the army were all killed in battle inexplicably.
In the following days, the harem was full of disasters, and Er Xin was almost killed several times, which made the emperor angry and executed many people in the palace. The queen competed for favor, but she ate saffron by mistake, and she didn't know how she ate it by mistake, so she drank most of the bowl, and went crazy after knowing that it was saffron, and came out of the palace all the way, regardless of the curfew, and went back to Shen's house to cry.
Zhao Zhe was entangled in a basket of affairs, and the queen still didn't know the general situation like this, and did something to go back to her parents' house. The queen can go back to her parents' house at will? Isn't this a joke for the world?
So Zhao Zhe didn't pick it up, and the Shen family's situation was very embarrassing. There is a queen in the house, send it back, there is no such guard of honor. Don't send it back, what is this like?
Shen Youqing first lost her child, and then drank saffron, the heir is hopeless, where can she not be extremely aggrieved? She has always bullied others, but she didn't expect to be bullied like this by others now, where can she swallow this breath? It's just that the emperor is eccentric, and it is useless for her to kneel outside the Zichen Hall and cry, so she has to come up with the trick of going back to her mother's house to force the emperor.
It's just that she doesn't know that the emperor is already anxious about political affairs now, and smart women should avoid this time, and don't help men serve tea and water to support silently, and they must not add to the chaos. She didn't pay attention, so she jumped into the trap that someone else had dug.
If she goes back, how can this harem still have the status of her queen?
At the time of the last dynasty, Shen Daxue made a statement to the emperor, saying that his wife would not go to court. Before he finished speaking, there was a performance from the criminal department next to him, and recently Shen Daxue not only misbehaved, but was found many times in the place of fireworks, but also accepted bribes, and there was a secret letter to tell him.
Above the court, Shen Daxue was a national abbot, and he was accused of doing such a thing. Not only did the Shen family lose face, but the emperor's face couldn't be hung either, so he scolded him angrily with a straight face, and then ordered him to go home.
It was extremely humiliating for the official to be ordered to go home in advance, and Shen Daxue was old, although he was disrespectful to the old, but he still read the temperament, and he didn't slow down in one breath, so he just went.
The Shen family was in mourning, and the emperor originally wanted to investigate the Shen family's bribery, but everyone was dead, so what else was there to pursue? Because he was the head of the country, the emperor also posthumously conferred a title on him.
Shen Youqing volunteered to keep filial piety in the Shen family, and the emperor did not ask her to come back. The queen is not there, but the harem is more lively. There are endless beauties one after another, and those who used to hide from the queen's poisonous hands have all come out now.
Zhao Zhe is not a mediocre person, he doesn't go to the harem six or seven times a month, but Yang Liu has a small waist and a beautiful city, so he has to share a little bit of his mind.
While he was distracted, Mo Yuhou gradually began to deal with some twists and turns for him. Big and small things, Ning Yuxuan can handle similar things as the emperor's methods, and even Zhu Pi's handwriting is similar. Starting with some unimportant memoirs, gradually there were fewer recitals sent to the emperor.
Zhao Zhe didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but when he felt that there were fewer twists and turns, he didn't know where he went. Turn it out and look at it, it seems that they are all approved by themselves.
The beauties came up again, in addition to Er Xin, there were a few women with faces very similar to Nie Sangyu, those women were also smart, they knew what he liked, so they deliberately learned Nie Sangyu's appearance, and made him unable to come back to his senses several times.
He may not really like Nie Sangyu, but he just thinks she is special and different. He, a person who is fortunate all over the world, is naturally very curious.
However, I don't know why, if he can't get Nie Sangyu, he even likes people who are similar to her so much.
Ji Man's reaction to this pregnancy was a bit big, he couldn't eat anything, and he was nauseated. Ning Yuxuan came back every day to see her face, and it was more and more haggard every time.
How so. Ning Yuxuan frowned: What do you want to eat?
Ji Man shook his head, pursed his lips and said: Women are very hard to get pregnant, and it's not the first time you've seen it. I don't really want to eat right now.
It was indeed not the first time Ning Yuxuan had seen it, but it was the first time he was so distressed.
Ji Man looked at his tangled expression, and felt much better. That's right, Mo Yuhou, I know that I feel sorry for my wife. In the past, he handled his own women like cutting cabbage, but now he finally knows how to be considerate, and it is not in vain that she abandons the modern good life and comes here to accompany him.
Wait a while, I'll accompany you to the mountains and rivers, okay?" Ning Yuxuan suddenly asked.
Ji Man raised his eyebrows: Don't you still have a lot of things to deal with in the court?
Recently, there have been more and more officials from the palace, and many people would rather come to Ning Yuxuan to deal with things than go directly to the palace, I don't know why.
yes, it's been a bit busy this time, so you're going to have to wait a little longer for me. His smile was full of confidence: don't wait too long.
Zhao Zhe had always been in Changjun before, and now most of the officials in the court are used in the forefront, after all, they are familiar with the business, as long as they are not absolutely loyal to the previous masters, they will continue to hold their original official positions.
Compared with the emperor who descended from the sky, Ning Yuxuan is naturally closer to the people in the court. Since he secretly changed the twist, he has the right to dispose of many things. Unconsciously, whatever the ministers do, they will ask Mo Yuhou.
When Prime Minister Xiao told the emperor that something was wrong, Zhao Zhe turned his head and found that he wanted to know how the city wall was repaired, and he had to ask Mo Yuhou.
When he was in the court, Mo Yuhou could come alone, because he knew everything, but he didn't tell him, and asked him to ask one by one.
Zhao Zhe felt that something was wrong, and he seemed to be slowly being overshadowed by Ning Yuxuan.
However, he found out too late, and he had no energy to save it. The war between the border and the Yuzhen Kingdom is becoming more and more intense, and it is said that the Yuzhen Kingdom is like a divine soldier descending from the sky, fighting all the way to the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty and retreating for hundreds of miles. Seeing that the border pass cannot be guarded. Zhao Zhe had to send several heavy troops to the border pass.
Military troubles are still continuous, the supply of grain and grass, the cost of the army, and people from the household department bother him every day. Zhao Zhe was even a little glad that Mo Yuhou helped him share part of it.
However, Mo Yuhou began to only pick up major matters to deal with, and piled all the trivial folds on the emperor's table, such as the canals in Jiangxi, the canals in Jiangdong, and the promotion of officials in Jiangnan. Zhao Zhe asked Xiao Tianyi where the excerpts went, and the excerpts were usually sent to the prime minister? However, Xiao Tianyi didn't know that he had been in the gold and silver nest recently, and his life was really free.
At the moment, except for the border war, there is a lot of fun in the court, except for Zhao Zhe and Ning Yuxuan, no one can feel the turbulence underneath. Zhao Zhe found his cronies to discuss, but now that the family and country are shaken, who can take care of the matter of fighting for power? Let's fight the battle at the border first.
Zhao Zhe is a fox, so Ning Yuxuan must be a superb player with nine tails. To retreat as advance, please enter the urn. Thirty-six estimates have been rediscovered by him.
The result must be that he wins.
Let's go. Ning Yuxuan looked at Ji Man's already round belly, and hesitated: Your body, let's go slowly.
Jiman was curious: where to go?
Didn't you say before that it was good to enjoy the mountains and rivers? Ning Yuxuan said with a smile: It just so happens that now that we are free, let's go east.
Ning Mingjie also went to the east when he set out on the expedition, and he traveled 3,000 miles, which was the junction with Yuzhen.
Good. However, Ji Man is willing to go with him, even if it is just a tolerance, a man who can bring his wife is also commendable.
What kind of life do you want to live in the future?" Ning Yuxuan asked.
Ji Man thought for a while and said: Safe and stable, can have your own career, can you not be congested by other women, the child was born safely, and you are safe and sound in the distance. Then one day he came back from his travels, and we could sit down as a family and eat the food I cooked.
Ning Yuxuan tilted his head and said very seriously: It's a little difficult, there are too many women who like me after all.
Ji Man glanced at him: There are still many men who like me, haven't you heard that the one who looks like me in the palace has already been made a concubine?
Ning Yuxuan's face darkened, and he stepped forward and grabbed her shoulder: Are you still thinking about him?
Do you want to show off, but don't let me say it? Ji Man snorted twice: I am worried that he will die soon.
Her face looked a little better, Ning Yuxuan sat on the edge of the bed, playing with an inconspicuous jade pendant on her waist and said: I don't think you will care about such a half-hearted man.
The corners of Ji Man's mouth twitched slightly, and this benevolent brother seemed to have completely forgotten that he was also half-hearted. Once Wen Wan wanted him to be single-minded, he was said to be narrow-minded.
She never asked him to only have her, because of the background of this era, she was not so willful. Although I can't accept it in my heart, but who is called accidentally in love, then I have to endure it.
Fortunately, it must be her who accompanied him to the end.
Set off on the boat, all the way to the east, Ji Man stood at the bow of the boat, stretched out his hand and turned back to Ning Yuxuan and said: Come here and hug my waist.
Ning Yuxuan's face turned pale because of where she was standing, and she stepped forward a few steps to stabilize her body, and reprimanded: What are you doing?
Ji Man opened his hands to do the classic actions of the Titanic, closed his eyes and sighed: I wanted to do this for a long time, but unfortunately there has never been a man.
Ning Yuxuan didn't understand what was good about this posture, but seeing her smile so happily, he protected her tightly.
Thinking that he still wouldn't be able to repair his brain, Ning Yuxuan felt that he should compensate for Ji Man better in other places.
