"He's not a good person?"
Zhao Xu blinked his big eyes, staring at Kou Ji blinking, with a face full of confusion.
Du Fei shook her head without explaining in detail.
Kou Ji understood the meaning of Du Fei's words, and did not explain in detail.
Marrying a princess, in the eyes of others, is a step up to the sky.
However, no one wants to marry a princess who wants to make a difference in the DPRK.
When Taizong Taizong was in the court, he married a princess and gave him a captain, and he was able to make a difference, and his gold content was also high.
After today's officialdom ascended the throne, the position of Lieutenant Du Ma has plummeted.
The position of the civil servants is rising day by day, and they naturally put people like Duma Duwei who climbed up by nepotism into the ranks of the relatives of the imperial family.
They are not allowed to intervene in major events in the courtroom.
Whenever one of them intervenes, they will be collectively impeached by civilian officials.
With Kou Ji's background, his relationship with Zhao Yingyi, and his status as the only student of the official family, he is destined to do something in the court.
As long as he is not in a brain convulsion, he will never marry a princess and cut off his official career.
Du Fei saw this, so she said that Kou Jifei is good.
Kou Ji understands Du Fei's thoughts.
But Kou Ji's thoughts are different from hers.
Marrying a princess will end the career, he doesn't care much.
He simply had no idea about Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu is only six years old this year, and she is still a little loli.
To him, a man with an adult soul, she is more like a daughter than a marriage partner.
"The two of them will be handed over to you. There is one who bumps into each other. Only you are asking."
Concubine Yang dropped this ruthless word and left with Concubine Du.
Zhao Yiyi and Zhao Xu's eyes all fell on Kou Ji, staring straight at him.
Kou Ji smiled and said, "Why are you looking at me?"
Zhao Yingyi grunted and said, "Kou Ji, in front of the little empress just now, how did you behave so unbearable. Fortunately, I made you boasted in front of the little empress..."
Zhao Xu tilted his head and nodded vigorously.
Kou Ji opened his mouth and wanted to explain a few words.
But when the words came to his lips, he found that he couldn't explain it.
Because any narration can easily lead to what happened last night.
Concubine Yang came over and gave him the password. If he still tells what happened last night, it will be hard to avoid the pain of a meal.
It is impossible to be decapitated.
Just because of a small mistake, he killed the grandson of the prime minister and the imperial court commander, and the civil and military of the Manchu dynasty had to be fried.
At that time, let alone Concubine Yang, even if Zhao Heng came to the court, he would have to give an explanation to the Manchu civil and military affairs.
Regardless of the brutality that Zhao Heng killed before, no one stopped him.
That's because those people deserve to die.
They not only murdered Zhao Heng, but also indirectly murdered most of the important officials in the court.
Zhao Heng was not the only one who ate the elixir, and most of the important officials in the court had more or less received the elixir rewarded by Zhao Heng.
In this matter, the important ministers in the court are all victims, so there is no sympathy for those people.
But if you want to kill Kou Ji, that's different.
Although Kou Ji was not a jinshi, he has made up for this as the only student of the official family.
He entered the official system with a serious eight hundred dollars.
Without a reasonable charge of decapitation, Kou Ji's words were moved.
The Manchu civil and military would not agree.
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, glanced at Zhao Yingyi, and sighed: "Can you blame me? You went to the Yang Fei Palace yesterday, and stayed there for half a day and a night. You are not in the palace, and those dead eunuchs will not send it to the East Palace. rice.
If I don’t go out and steal some food, I might starve to death. "
When Zhao Yiyi and Zhao Xu heard this, they were stunned.
Among the eunuchs left by Concubine Yang, someone interjected, "Even if we don't eat for three days, we won't starve to death. Kou Shidu's words are a bit exaggerated, right?"
Kou Ji glanced at him and sneered: "According to you, I'm cheating the prince? Then tell me, I didn't go to the royal dining room last night, where did I go?"
The eunuch opened his mouth, not daring to tell the truth.
He obviously knows the inside story.
Kou Ji will not die if he tells the truth.
But if he tells the truth, he will definitely die.
And it would die miserably.
"It's our family who made a mistake..."
Kou Ji curled his lips and snorted coldly.
Zhao Yingyi said guiltily: "It was my fault that made you hungry."
"Then what are you waiting for, let someone pass the meal... I'm hungry..."
Kou Ji was really hungry. Since leaving the East Palace with Chen Lin yesterday, until now, the grain of rice has not been entered, and he panicked with hunger.
His body is growing, and he can't get hungry for a meal.
"Pass the meal..."
Zhao Yingyi turned and ordered the eunuch.
The eunuch said with a bitter face: "His Royal Highness, you just had a meal in Concubine Yang's Palace..."
Zhao Yingyi stared, "If you let you pass the meal, you can pass the meal, where there is so much nonsense. Is my palace instructing you not to move you?"
The eunuch was shocked when he heard the words, "The slave is guilty, the slave is guilty..."
Zhao Xu followed Zhao Yiyi's appearance, arms akimbo, and shouted: "If you let you pass the meal, you can pass the meal. Where is there so much nonsense. Am I instructing you not to move you?"
The eunuch almost lay on the ground in fright, and wailed with a bitter face: "Oh, two little ancestors, the slaves and maids will order food to be passed on."
"Quickly, quickly... Pass the meal, pass the meal!"
He turned his head and ordered the other eunuchs behind him.
Before long, a table of delicious food appeared before Kou Ji's eyes.
Zhao Yingyi and Zhao Xu have both eaten, so the eunuch specially asked the Yushan Fang to prepare two bowls of soup for them.
The eunuch knew that Kou Ji wanted to enjoy the food alone, so he tricked him and didn't let anyone help him taste the poison.
He only let people taste what Zhao Yingyi and Zhao Xu wanted to eat.
Kou Ji ate the food on the table nonchalantly.
The eunuch's bad thoughts caused Kou Ji to eat a hot meal.
As for whether the food is poisonous, Kou Ji is not worried at all.
Zhao Henggang killed a group of poisoned people with such ruthless methods. If someone commits crimes at this time, it would be that the old birthday star hangs himself, and his life is too long.
Although Zhao Heng had fainted, Liu E would never be soft.
After Kou Ji had eaten, the table was cleaned up.
He accompanied Zhao Yiyi and Zhao Xu to play in the East Palace for a while, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Which gentleman is teaching today?"
Zhao Yiyi turned his head and said, "Don't you know?"
"what do you know?"
"Within three days, no one was teaching."
Kou Ji clicked his lips, "Okay..."
No one is teaching, it means that Liu Heng and others can't enter the palace, and he can't learn the news outside the palace.
Zhao Heng killed thousands of Daoists and several Zhao family members in one breath.
The drums on the imperial city haven't stopped yet, which shows that the people in Yuqing Zhaoying Palace have not died yet, and the fire inside has not gone out.
A huge group of palaces was lit, thousands of people were in it, and it could not be burned out overnight.
Before he thought the drums on the imperial city were ritual music, but now he understands that the drums are probably to cover up the wailing in Yuqing Zhaoying Palace.
Drums were used to cover up the tragedy of Yuqing Zhaoying Palace, and at the same time, drums were used to tell the people outside the city that a grand ceremony was being held in the palace.
As for the fire that soars into the sky, it will probably be interpreted as a sacred fire lit by sacrificial gods.
"While killing, it also confuses the people. Although the method is simple, it has a miraculous effect. I don't know who came up with it."
Kou Ji sat on the stone steps in front of the East Palace and murmured.
Zhao Yingyi is accompanying Zhao Xu to break willows in the yard.
A thin figure, dressed in a scarlet official uniform, came in from the entrance of the East Palace and slowly paced to Kou Ji.
He heard Kou Ji's words and whispered: "It's not about confuse the people... The officials have killed too much, and the people still don't know it."
Kou Ji turned his head, saw him, was stunned, got up and said, "Xiaguan Kou Ji, I've seen an adult."
Scarlet official uniforms can only be worn by officials of Rank 4 and above.
There is no doubt that the person in front of him is a fourth grade official.
Kou Ji has guessed his identity.
Those who can appear in the East Palace, except for some of the gentlemen who taught Zhao Yiyi, the rest are basically the officials of the East Palace.
Most of Kou Ji has seen him as an official in the East Palace.
There is only one person he has never seen.
Zuo concubine, Yan Shu.
Yan Shu looked at Kou Ji, nodded slowly, and said, "Don't be polite..."
After a pause, he sighed again: "In terms of methods, your methods are far better than mine. You just opened your mouth and killed thousands of people. And I racked my brains to come up with such a cover-up kill. The way to cut."
Kou Ji was taken aback, and said in deep thought: "Did you think of covering up the cry of Yuqing Zhaoying Palace with the sound of drums?"
Yan Shu glanced at Kou Ji, and said faintly: "Otherwise, how do you think I, the concubine Zuo, came from? Is it really appreciated by your grandfather? I am less than thirty years old and have a fourth grade official residence. If I don't have the credit, what A foothold in the court?"
Kou Ji nodded slowly, and said: "You have been promoted to the left concubine for many days, why did you come to the East Palace today?"
Yan Shu was taken aback, with a faint smile, "Are you questioning me?"
Kou Ji shook his head and said, "Just curious..."
Yan Shu sighed, pondered for a long time, looked at Kou Ji and said, "I said I came to avoid disaster, do you believe it?"
"Avoid disaster?"
Kou Ji frowned and questioned: "What happened in the court?"
Yan Shu asked unexpectedly: "Why do you think that what happened in the court, not the poisonous things of the elixir implicated me?"
Kou Ji rolled his eyes.
Yan Shu smiled and said: "That's right and right, I really want to be involved in the poisonous things of the elixir, and I can't live now. Since you guessed something happened in the court, then I'll tell you."
Yan Shu put away his smiling face and said faintly: "The queen is officially in the Shishi Hall..."
Kou Ji stunned: "Is this impossible?"
Yan Shu sighed: "After Concubine Yang and Concubine Du entered the official dormitory, the queen appeared in Shishitang. Your grandfather and Li Xianggong, please play immediately and let the prince supervise the country.
However, the queen shied away from the fact that the prince was young and the official allowed her to take charge of the administration.
Your grandfather and queen quarrelled..."
Kou Ji was stunned and asked: "The queen won?"
The reason why Kou Ji asked so was that he didn't believe Kou Zhun.
But Yan Shu said that Liu E is officially in the Shishi Hall.
With this sentence before, Kou Zhun and Liu E had a dispute, and it is very likely that Liu E won.
If Liu E didn't win, Yan Shu would not say this.
However, what Kou Ji did not expect was that Yan Shu actually shook his head and said, "Ding Wei won..."
"Ding Wei?"
This answer surprised Kou Ji.
Yan Shu sighed and said: "Yes! Ding Wei won. I thought that the elixir was poisonous, Ding Wei would be involved, but at the end of the investigation, I found out that Ding Wei didn't know about it, but just interacted with the Taoists.
The officials acquiesced in your grandfather's conquest of Ding Wei's power and eliminated Ding Wei's party feathers, which was a lesson for him.
Ding Wei is about to withdraw from the court under the pressure of your grandfather.
Unexpectedly, he unexpectedly joined forces with Cao Yi secretly.
Today, in the courtroom, during the quarrel between your grandfather and the queen, he opened his mouth to help the queen, and Cao Li also followed.
Instead of getting a bargain, your grandfather was robbed of the position of a servant by Ding Wei. "
Kou Ji frowned and said: "The official family is now uncertain about the life and death, they are starting to fight for power?"
Yan Shu said earnestly: "If you don't fight now, when will you fight? Once the officials... In short, after the dust settles, it will be too late to fight for power."
Yan Shu wanted to say that once Zhao Heng died and Zhao Yiyi took the throne, everything was a foregone conclusion, and it would be too late to fight for power.
But if Zhao Heng died bluntly, he did not dare to say, nor could he say.
"Hey… "
Yan Shu sighed and said, "This is the court, this is the officialdom..."
Kou Ji frowned and said in a deep voice: "I guessed that after the officials were seriously ill, there would be a fight for power, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly and so early."
Yan Shu nodded and said: "It is because it is too early to see who will lose and who will win, so I went to the East Palace to avoid disaster."
Kou Ji frowned tighter, "Are you not going to help my grandfather?"
Yan Shu was taken aback when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, "I stayed in the East Palace to help my grandfather. Even if the queen shirks from side to side, it will be a matter of time for the prince to supervise the country. I must stay in the East Palace to help the prince. Being controlled by the queen or Ding Wei has become their tongue."
"I believe you a ghost!"
Kou Ji hesitated for a while, and after taking a close look at Yan Shu, he cursed in his heart, wishing to scream at Yan Shu's face.
When others heard Yan Shu's words, they might believe them.
But Kou Ji didn't believe it.
Why
This is because it is recorded in historical books that after Zhao Heng died, Liu E was able to listen to politics with the curtain down and walk to the front of the stage step by step, which was the result of Yan Shu.
If it weren't for Yan Shu's suggestion that Liu E was listening to politics and helping Liu E build a step, how could Liu E get to the front of the stage
It is precisely because Kou Ji knew what Yan Shu would do in the future that he did not believe in Yan Shu's words.
After thinking about it carefully, he guessed the true meaning of Yan Shu's visit to the East Palace.
What he said just now was true.
But thinking about it conversely, isn't he helping Liu E and Ding Wei
He can help the prince and prevent him from becoming the tongue of Liu E and Ding Wei; he can also help the prince and prevent him from becoming the tongue of Kou Zhun and Ding Wei; he can also help the prince and prevent him from becoming Kou Zhun And Liu E's tongue.
If three parties place a bet, one party is not guilty.
No matter which side wins, he has the credit.
Really good calculation!
Yan Shu, Yan Shu, I misunderstood you.
Your words are good, but people are too bad!
Originally, Kou Ji wanted to get to know Yan Shu, but after knowing Yan Shu's plan, he didn't want to talk to Yan Shu, and even wanted to stay away from him.
