Chapter 1642 Zhao Kuangyi also panicked
Ludoxon's imprisonment, for the big man, was undoubtedly an extremely major political accident, and the impact and shock it brought was also huge.

The bottom line is that the courtiers mentioned that the big man has not questioned the ministers for too many years. The big man has no such saying that "you can't punish the doctor". Over the years, he has killed many bureaucrats, including many Taoists. Great officials, but the characters in the political affairs hall are somewhat special after all. After all, they are one of the most powerful and highest-ranking ministers in the imperial court.

At such a position, they are already able to represent the imperial court. Everyone is like a pillar and cannot be shaken easily. Once shaken, it will have a huge impact and hurt the muscles and bones.

What is conceivable is that the Ludoxun incident is absolutely impossible to be confined within the imperial court, and it is inevitable that it will spread to the whole country.

Guangyang uncle's mansion, after Zhao Kuangyi went to court, he returned directly to the mansion, but he seemed to be in a hurry.Today is his rest day, but Emperor Liu issued an edict for a temporary grand court. As the servant of Zhongshu, he naturally had to be present. A good show.

It was Lu Duoxun who was taken down, but the ones who were surprised were not only Zhao Kuangyi, but also Zhao Kuangyin. He was present, and Emperor Liu specially ordered someone to explain it. Unlike Zhao Kuangyi, Zhao Kuangyin was a little hard to understand. Strange.

In today's Zhao family, Zhao Kuangyi is undoubtedly the one standing in the foreground, but Zhao Kuangyin is still the backbone. Although the brothers have become estranged over the years, they can still work together when it comes to major issues.

Zhao Kuangyin didn't go back to the mansion directly, but simply followed Zhao Kuangyi's mansion. He also had some doubts, and seeing Zhao Kuangyi's reaction made him even more doubtful.

In the study, Zhao Kuangyin was sitting beside him, holding a cup of tea that he didn't like, and occasionally took a sip. His face was expressionless, his eyes were calm, and he silently watched Zhao Kuangyi's movements.

There was a pot of charcoal fire on the ground, and the flame in the pot was burning fiercely. The bright fire light reflected on the faces of the two brothers, and it also brought a hot feeling that was more severe than the scorching heat.

Zhao Kuangyi was a little busy, putting some official documents and letters into the brazier, going back and forth from time to time, searching in the study.It wasn't until the last letter was thrown into the brazier that Zhao Kuangyi breathed a sigh of relief, and his forehead was dripping with sweat from the heat.

After seeing the burning, Zhao Kuangyi reached out to wipe off the sweat on his brow, took a towel from the shelf, wiped his hands, and greeted outside: "Come here!"

"Here!" The waiter outside the door entered, not daring to raise his head, and responded respectfully.

Pointing to the brazier, Zhao Kuangyi ordered: "Deal with it!"

The servant retreated, leaving only the two brothers in the room, and the tense atmosphere eased a lot as Zhao Kuangyi sat down.Picking up the teacup, without caring about his demeanor, Zhao Kuangyi took a sip, looked at his brother who had been silent for a long time, and sighed.

Seeing this, Zhao Kuangyin frowned tightly and said, "Are these correspondences useful if they are burned?"

Zhao Kuangyi said helplessly: "At this time, it has become a disaster. If we don't burn it, I'm afraid it will be handed over to others!"

"Your side is burned, can you guarantee that there is nothing left on Ludoxun's side?" Zhao Kuangyin asked again.

Regarding this, Zhao Kuangyi remained silent, and frowned tightly: "There shouldn't be any evidence left on his side. I still have this vigilance!"

"Why did you get involved with Lu Duoxun? I reminded you that this person is too flamboyant, and he doesn't know how to restrain himself. Sooner or later, he will bring disaster!" Hearing what he said, Zhao Kuangyin's expression was very ugly.

Facing his brother's questioning, Zhao Kuangyi pondered for a while, and responded leisurely: "I thought that I could use him a little bit to bring down Zhao Pu. I never thought that Lu Duoxun would be so useless. It's a pity to be in a cage."

Mentioning this, Zhao Kuangyi felt aggrieved. Of course, it was unavoidable to be worried, worried that this matter would really involve him.Judging from the situation of being imprisoned, Lu Duoxun will peel off his skin even if he is not dead, and may even lose his life. As for the impact of the situation, it depends on Emperor Liu's attitude.

However, it was this situation that was completely out of his control that made Zhao Kuangyi restless.Lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot, Zhao Kuangyi was particularly touched.

"A shrewd person like Lu Duoxun, if you want to use him, isn't he using you? Now that his incident happened, do you think you can get through it? Do you think that your liaison can be hidden from His Majesty? Eyes and ears? Even what happened more than ten years ago can be counted out one by one today, do you think your actions are very secretive?" When Zhao Kuangyin taught him a lesson, some of his graying beard trembled.

Zhao Kuangyi, who is equally shrewd at this time, was reprimanded by this pass, so he could not help but shut himself up. He pondered for a while, and said: "I just want to follow the trend, and the matter is not deep. Besides, as an official of the same dynasty, some communication is inevitable. Your Majesty You have a huge mind, so don't blame me for it."

When he said this, Zhao Kuangyi himself seemed a little unconfident. After thinking for a while, he said: "For the present plan, we can only try to get rid of the relationship and avoid being implicated!"

"Do you also think that Lu Duoxun was imprisoned because of Wang Yucheng's impeachment? Lu Duoxun's pool is so deep and muddy. You think you are not involved deeply, so what does your Majesty think of it?

With His Majesty's great talent, there are still two prime ministers who wield real power when they secretly collude with ministers!Now you are going to jointly deal with Zhao Pu. If one day, you join forces to rebel, do you think His Majesty will not make guesses? "

Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyi smiled wryly and said, "In today's world, who would dare to rebel?"

Zhao Kuangyin: "Lu Duoxun is obsessed with power, I think you are similar!"

After reprimanding and venting, Zhao Kuangyin's mood eased. Looking at Zhao Kuangyi, who was still contemplating, he sighed and said, "I know you have great ambitions, but now you have reached the position of chancellor and serve in the Political Affairs Hall. In the imperial court, how many people are above you? You are only in your early forties, why can't you be more restrained? No one knows how much His Majesty values ​​you. Since you have been transferred back to Beijing, he wants to use you, so why not more some patience?"

"If I, Zhongshu Shilang, do not have the title of "Ping Zhang Shi", what is the difference between me and ordinary department officials?" Zhao Kuangyi said in a deep voice: "Besides, there is only one seat in the political affairs hall, and Zhao Pu will not fall down. , where is the chance?"

"Second brother, you also said that I am already over the age of doubt, wait, when will I wait?"

"Zhao Pu fell, is it your turn?"

"If Zhao Pu doesn't fall, then he will always occupy the position! He has been in the position for a long time, and the courtiers have suffered for a long time!" Zhao Kuangyi said.

"Just wait, I don't know how many people will be involved in this matter, I hope that as you said, you can be alone!"

Zhao Kuangyi had a gloomy face, thinking silently, however, no matter how calm he appeared on the surface, the fear in his heart was always lingering, and it was hard to let go.
