Chapter 408: The bold eunuch

Views:

Liu E knew that the three of Kou Zhun could not fight together, but couldn't help the anger in his heart, and only banged the phoenix chair he was sitting on.

Seeing this, the three Kou Zhun couldn't force Liu E too much, so they arched their hands, dropped a word, and withdrew from the bedroom.

"Tomorrow, the minister will send officials from the Ministry of Etiquette to Qingfang Palace..."

After the three of Kou Zhun had left, Liu E patted the phoenix chair and shouted, "You little conscience, for a woman, you actually asked the three of Kou Zhun to bully Laijia!"

Liu E's roar, in the empty palace, returned for a long time.

Kou Zhun and the three people went out of the bedroom door, heard Liu E's roar, and looked at each other with no pity in their eyes.

If it weren't for Liu E's desire to do things against the rules, how could it be the case today.

By the time Kou Zhun and the three of them walked away.

The three Yan Shu came out from behind Liu Efeng's chair.

Yan Shu said indignantly: "The three old thieves of Kou Zhun are really damned to insult Niang Niang in this way."

Xia Wei said coldly: "If the empress can return to the court again, the three old thieves will die."

On the contrary, the old figure bowed to Liu E and solemnly said: "The mother-in-law calms down and takes care of the phoenix body."

Liu E restrained the anger in his chest under the advice of the old figure, and said in a deep voice, "The Aijia wants to know when will the Aijia reappear in the Chugong Hall."

Xia Yu said solemnly: "Kou Zhun will not die, it is difficult for the empress to appear in the court."

The old figure shook his head, "That's not necessarily..."

Liu E's eyes fell on the old figure, and he asked: "How do you tell?"

The old figure said: "The official wedding is an opportunity for the empress. The empress can reappear in front of the people through the official wedding. As for expelling the three Kou Zhun and regaining power, you can slowly figure it out. It."

Liu E frowned and said: "How do you figure it out slowly?"

The old figure groaned: "Since the Kou Zhun three took the lead and abolished the power to cast ordnance, the Wuxuns have never stopped behind.

Now the three Kou Zhun have expressed their intention to abolish the Xiang army in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Naturally, the Wuxuns would not wait to die.

There are already seven or eight generals of the Xiang army, secretly taking refuge in the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan.

When the three Kou Zhun began to abolish the Xiang army in the hinterland of the Central Plains, I am afraid that more Xiang army generals, and even Wu Xun, will join him.

According to the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan's temperament, with so much power in his hands, he would inevitably be unable to sit still.

Once the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan broke up, the three Kou Zhun would inevitably come forward to deal with it.

The three of Kou Zhun work together, and the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan is definitely not the opponent.

Wait until after the rebellion is quelled.

As the chief regent, Kou Zhun must be responsible for the rebellion of the eight king Zhao Yuanyan.

During his general regency, he failed to find out about the rebellion of the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan, and he could not shirk the blame.

Begging bones is inevitable.

Once Kou Zhun begs the bones, it is the time when you reappeared in the Chuigong Hall, Niang Niang. "

The old figure mentioned the affairs of the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan. Liu E, Yan Shu, and Xia Yu did not look surprised at all on their faces.

Obviously, they had known the plan behind the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan.

The reason why they knew everything about the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan was related to the old figure.

Because that old figure is the confidant of the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan and the number one adviser beside the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan.

Wang Qinruo!

The reason why Wang Qinruo betrayed the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan was because he found it difficult for him to get things done.

After three dynasties, Wang Qinruo has long become a human being.

For the eight kings, Zhao Yuanyan had a few catties and a few taels, and he could see clearly.

The eight kings, Zhao Yuan, have great ambitions in their minds, but they have great ambitions and talents.

If he was really capable, when Taizong passed on the throne, it would not be the first emperor Zhao Heng's turn.

If he was really capable, when the first emperor Zhao Heng died, he would not pass the throne to Zhao Zhen.

If he was really capable, he would not have been crushed to death during the administration of the first emperor, during the administration of Liu E, and during the administration of Kou Zhun.

During the more than two decades of the reign of the first emperor Zhao Heng, the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan, who had no ambitions, only dared to behave among the people, spread some rumors, and gain a good name for himself.

He didn't dare to do the other things.

Had it not been for Kou Ji's appearance, which stirred his restless heartstrings, I am afraid he would not dare to recruit civil servants in his entire life to usurp the throne.

Kou Ji was not as weak as the champion, so he dared to stir up the storm in the court, which gave him a lot of courage.

With the courage that Kou Ji gave, and the situation Kou Ji helped him open up, he dared to recruit civil servants and make plans to usurp the throne.

But to this day, he hasn't recruited many useful talents.

In other words, Li Zi can barely use it, and the others are not worth mentioning.

Not to mention dealing with the three Kou Zhun, just one Kou Ji has been tossing them several times.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Qinruo decided that the eight king Zhao Yuanyan could not do anything, and decisively voted for Liu E.

In Wang Qinruo's eyes, Liu E was smarter than the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan, and even more capable than the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan.

The eighth king Zhao Yuanyan tried his best and exhausted his money and could not recruit people. Liu E was just a letter, which made people invest in his command.

Comparing the two, it is obvious who you are going to mix with.

After listening to Wang Qinruo's words, Liu E frowned and said: "Whether it has anything to do with Zhao Yuanyan's emergence through official marriage with the Ai family."

Wang Qinruo bowed his hand and said solemnly: "The empress needs to appear in front of the hundreds of officials in order to attract more officials to the empress. After Kou Zhun begs the bones, the empress will have enough manpower to regain control of the court and let the Kou There will be no repetition."

Liu E thought of the way Kou Zhun threatened her just now, and his anger re-emerged, "Let the Aijia wait for Zhao Yuanyan to cause trouble, it is better to let the Aijia wait for Kou Zhun to die."

Obviously.

In Liu E's eyes, Zhao Yuanyan was not enough.

Wang Qinruo opened his mouth, just about to speak.

Just listen to Liu E continue to say angrily: "The Aijia can't wait! There is no other way?!"

Xia Yu said in a yin test: "The prince’s method is the most appropriate, and it is the most stable method at present, but I don’t want to see the Kou family’s grandparents and grandchildren die. Since the empress can’t wait, the minister is not willing to see the Kou family If our grandparents are dead, then we will find a way to help a bunch of eight kings, Zhao Yuanyan."

The eyes of Liu E, Wang Qinruo, and Yan Shu all fell on Xia Wei.

Liu E said solemnly: "How can I help?"

Wang Qinruo let out a long sigh and reminded: "The mud is not easy to support the wall."

Xia Wei sneered and said: "With our help, even if the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan is really a puddle of mud, we can still support him to the wall."

Wang Qinruo frowned and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Xia Wei shook his head and said, "It's what you plan to do."

Wang Qinruo and Liu E looked puzzled.

Xia Yu continued: "The most violent disturbance in the court today is the detention of prisoners. Among them, the people who oppose the most are your people. I think you should no longer oppose this.

But to help the Wuxuns, the successful deportation will be in prison. "

Wang Qinruo's eyes widened in amazement.

Yan Shu glanced at Xia Wei and said in deep thought, "Do you want the Wuxuns to see the sincerity of the eighth king Zhao Yuanyan?"

Xia Yun nodded and sneered: "Not only that, but I want to offend a large group of civilian officials with Kou Zhun. The old thief Kou Zhun, the young thief Kou Ji, can be said to have worked hard to help the Ministry of Industry seize power.

Then we fulfilled their minds, and the Ministry of Help was granted the powers of the general supervisor, the young government supervisor, and the third division. "

Wang Qinruo stroked his beard, clicked his mouth, and said with emotion: "In this way, the Kou family's grandparents are afraid to offend the half-dynasty civil servants, as well as the royal family. In this way, it will be convenient for the empress to recruit civil servants."

Yan Shu said in shock: "I'm afraid that when the time comes, there is no need to recruit the empress, those civil servants will take the initiative to vote under the empress, and Ren Empress will dispatch."

After a pause, Yan Shu said again: "There will still be some civil servants who will join the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan. The wings of the Eighth King Zhao Yuanyan will surely become fuller quickly."

Wang Qinruo pondered: "The method is a good method, but how should the old man let the civil servants in his hand actively surrender his interests?"

Xia Wei narrowed his eyes, and said coldly: "Wait until the empress comes to the Arch Palace again, what do you want? Don't they like high-ranking officials or greater interests?"

Wang Qinruo looked at Liu E subconsciously.

Liu E naturally knew what Wang Qinruo was worried about, and she said decisively: "The Ai family's return to the Arch Palace is also afraid that Kou's ancestors and grandchildren will be too powerful and conspiracy. The Ai family is to help the officials keep the country, and they help. The Aijia is naturally a meritorious minister, and the Aijia will not be stingy with rewards."

Wang Qinruo nodded in a groan, "In this way, the veteran will be able to persuade the gang of subordinates."

Xia Yu had long guessed that Wang Qinruo would not refuse the affair of a larger official, so after Wang Qinruo's voice fell, he continued: "The next step is..."

Liu E, Wang Qinruo, and Yan Shu pricked their ears to listen.

However, Xia Yun's eyes fell on Guo Huai.

Guo Huai was able to hear it energetically. Seeing Liu E and Xia Yun's eyes fell on him, he was a little startled.

"The servant girl... The servant girl is the confidant of the empress..."

Somehow, Guo Huai was a little uncomfortable by Xia Wei's gaze, and subconsciously said such a sentence.

Seeing this, Liu E said to Xia Wei: "Xia Aiqing doesn't have to guard against Guo Huai, Guo Huai is loyal to the Ai's family, and absolutely dare not divulge a word."

Xia Yu didn't listen to Liu E's words, but shook his head stubbornly, and said, "Please also ask Father Guo to wait outside the palace."

Guo Huai's face changed.

Immediately, there was a miserable look on his face, and he looked at Liu E.

Liu E looked at Guo Huai with some embarrassment, and then at Xia Wei. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said: "Guo Huai, you go back first..."

Guo Huai's heart beat, his head dropped, and his voice trembling slightly responded.

"Slaves... Follow the order..."

With his head hanging down, Guo Huai left Liu E's bedroom.

The reason why he keeps his head down is not because of his humility.

It was because he was afraid to raise his head and let people see the hideousness on his face.

At the moment when Xia Wei asked him to leave the palace.

Inexplicably, he gave birth to an absurd idea.

Xia Wei wanted to compete with him.

Xia Wei wants to take his place next to Liu E.

Before the change, Xia Wei would naturally not be able to replace him.

But now, Xia Wei is like him, staying in the palace for so long.

More knowledgeable than him, better than him, and better at handling affairs.

Liu E obeyed Xia Yun's suggestion and let him leave the bedroom.

So Xia Wei already had the opportunity to replace him.

It is precisely because of this that his face is full of hideousness.

Although Guo Huai did not look up.

But how could his mind be kept from Xia Wei.

When he lowered his head and never looked up, Xia Wei had guessed his thoughts.

However, Xia Wei dared to speak out and offend him, obviously he had been prepared early.

Just after Guo Huai's figure disappeared in the bedroom.

Xia Yu arched his hand to Liu E and said something shocking.

"The next step is to let Cao use it to die!"

"bass!"

Liu E stood up suddenly and looked at Xia Wei with disbelief.

Yan Shu and Wang Qinruo stared at Xia Wei in horror.

Let a privy envoy go to death, and officials dare not say so.

How dare you Xia Yun

Liu E couldn't calm down and said, "Xia Wei, do you know what you are talking about?"

Xia Wei said indifferently: "The minister naturally knows... There is a reason why the minister said so."

Liu Eqiang endured the astonishment in his heart, staring at Xia Wei and said, "Speak..."

Xia Yun said frankly: "If Niang Niang refuses to let Cao use her to die, Cao will let you die if she uses her."

Liu E said solemnly: "Cao Liao is also regarded as the confidant of Ai's family. Since he joined Ai's family, he has always followed Ai's orders. When the Ai's family is back in power, he will only celebrate for the Ai's family. How could it threaten the Ai's family? Home?"

Xia Wei said quietly: "You have to ask your confidant eunuch Guo Huai..."

"Guo Huai?!"

Liu E was puzzled.

Xia Yu also didn't sell Guanzi, and said bluntly: "If it weren't for the ministers to hear and see with their own eyes, who would have thought that the dignified Secret Envoy of the Song Dynasty would be forced by an eunuch to the point of eating chaotic vegetables?"

Liu E's eyes widened in astonishment, even more astonished than before.

Wang Qinruo and Yan Shu can stuff a sepak takraw ball in their mouths.

"You said... Guo Huai... forced Cao to use his family to eat chaffy vegetables?!"

Liu E murmured a question.

Xia Yu nodded and said: "Since the empress did not like Cao's use, she has sent Guo Huai as the person who spreads the word between you and Cao's use. In your name, Guo Huai has often extorted money from Cao's use.

Now the money from the top and bottom of Cao's mansion has long been blackmailed out.

Cao's house went up and down, and could only eat chaffy vegetables.

If it's just that, that's all.

But after Guo Huai extorted Cao's money, he insulted Cao several times.

Cao took advantage of the delay in dealing with Guo Huai, and probably counted all the hatred on the empress.

If you let him seize the opportunity, do you think he will let you go? "

Liu E slumped down on the chair with a cry, unable to believe what Xia Wei said.

The same is true for Yan Shu and Wang Qinruo.

Rao is Wang Qinruo with a lot of knowledge, and at this moment he said in shock: "Guo Huai is an eunuch... how dare he?"

Xia Wei smiled coldly and said: "If the eunuch does something extraordinary, he can be bolder than you and me. Taizong's accession to the throne in the past is indispensable for the great eunuch Wang Jien. Zhou Huaizheng is angry and can lead tens of thousands of troops into the imperial city. Guo Huai was just using the name of the Queen Mother to force Cao to use it. What's the point?"
