The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 11 Return to the original form
Yue Peng was also in the hall, when he heard the general impeaching him, his eyes widened with anger, he immediately stood up and said: "The sergeant is not used to this climate, that's why he fell ill, what are you doing to me?"

But the general said: "Why did he get used to it early and late, but why doesn't he get used to it now?"

Yue Peng was so unreasonable by his strong words that he was speechless for a while.

At this time, Su Liuyi suddenly spoke and said, "Queen Mother, what is the truth, just let the generals of the infantry guards come over and ask."

Concubine Yang Shu nodded lightly, "Then let's announce all the generals above the commander of the guard infantry squads!"

Immediately a eunuch hurried out.

Zhao Dongting gave Yue Peng a look to signal him to back down first, but remained silent.

Soon the two squads of the infantry guards were all commanders, Du Yuhou, and several commanders were ushered in by the eunuch.They seemed to have made an agreement, and when Concubine Yang Shu asked a question, they all knelt on the ground and said: "It's true that the deputy in charge has practiced too much, please empress dowager and emperor to see clearly."

"you!"

Yue Peng was very angry.He thought he had never practiced carelessly these days, but he didn't want to be treated like this.

"Get out!"

Concubine Yang Shu called Yue Peng back, tilted her head and asked Zhao Dongting softly, "Yes, what do you think?"

Zhao Dongting only said: "According to my mother's wishes, what should I do?"

Concubine Yang Shu said: "You have had enough fun these few days. This Yue Peng was promoted by you, but he acts so recklessly. According to my palace, you should return the guards to Commander Yang Yidong, Lord Yang. How about it?"

Zhao Dongting thought to himself, so this is your purpose.

He sat upright and said to Concubine Yang Shu: "Mother, do you dare to ask who all the soldiers and horses in this world belong to?"

Concubine Yang Shu said: "You are the current emperor, so of course it belongs to you."

Zhao Dongting said again: "Where did the word 'return' come from, mother? Could it be that the guards should belong to Yang Yidong?"

Concubine Yang Shu really didn't expect that her child would take advantage of the loopholes in her own words, and she was stopped at the moment, unable to answer.

Zhao Dongting pointed to the general who impeached Yue Peng, and continued: "Since he said that the soldiers are complaining, we have only asked the generals what they mean. I think we should also ask the soldiers what they mean. They also said that Deputy Yue is not in charge, so how about I immediately remove General Yue from his official position?"

Zhao Dongting didn't believe that they could control these generals and all the guard infantry.

Furthermore, if Yue Peng really practiced too much and didn't know how to train soldiers, then he should be removed from his official position. Zhao Dongting would not protect him.

But who of the guard infantry generals present didn't know the truth?
In the past few days, Yue Peng has been able to manage the army well, with both benevolence and wisdom, and he is quite loved by the soldiers.In an instant, I cried out in pain.

Concubine Yang Shu also knew it in her heart, and said: "In my opinion, there is no need for this."

Zhao Dongting's eyes revealed a look of questioning.

Concubine Yang Shu said again: "Not to mention what the sergeants said, these generals are not convinced by Yue Peng, how will he lead the army in the future? How will he be prohibited by order?"

Zhao Dongting lowered his face slightly, "Is mother determined to remove Yue Peng from his official position?"

"Do not."

Concubine Yang Shu smiled softly, and said softly: "Yue Peng was promoted by you, why would you dismiss him directly?"

As she said that, she looked straight ahead, looked at the people in the hall, and said: "Although General Yue has lost his way in governing the army, I have heard that he is outstanding in martial arts. He is a rare and powerful general in our Song Dynasty. Instructor, teach the soldiers how to practice martial arts!"

Yue Peng's face lost some blood in an instant.

The ministers knelt down and called "The Empress Dowager Shengming", Zhao Dongting wanted to say something more, but he couldn't speak.

Concubine Yang Shu called him here, but she didn't intend to give him a chance to refute at all.All the ministers turned to Concubine Yang Shu, and the little emperor Zhao Dongting was powerless.

At this moment, Zhao Dongting clenched his teeth slightly, and murmured in his heart: "Are you really going to force me to use means to seize power from you?"

Concubine Yang Shu and her ministers were arbitrarily arbitrarily ruling the court, and they were still against her own emperor, which made Zhao Dongting's heart really cold.

Concubine Yang Shu didn't look at Zhao Dongting's face at all, and then said: "The guard infantry is still in charge of Master Yang in Yang Yidong. Let the two generals recommend talents to serve in the army!"

Yang Yidong and the previous general who impeached Yue Peng stood up, "Thank you Queen Mother!"

Su Quandang?
When Zhao Dongting heard this name, his heart shivered slightly, and he remembered the name in his heart.

Then he didn't stay in the hall for too long, he told Concubine Yang Shu that he was unwell, and hurried away with Li Yuanxiu.

No one stopped him.

When I first arrived in the Southern Song Dynasty, the situation that Zhao Dongting had just opened was beaten back to its original state by Concubine Yang Shu in this morning.

Yue Peng was demoted, and even the infantry guards were recaptured by Concubine Yang Shu, and handed over to Yang Yidong.

On the way back to the bedroom, Zhao Dongting asked Li Yuanxiu in a cold voice: "Eunuch, does this Su Quandang have any relationship with Su Liuyi and Lord Su?"

He is still full of anger.

Li Yuanxiu is an old eunuch in the imperial court, he is very familiar with all the officials, and immediately replied: "General Su is Master Su's nephew."

Zhao Dongting sneered, "I see."

Now he finally understands why Su Liuyi blocked him many times when he promoted Yue Peng to be a deputy official.Su Quandang was formerly Marquis of the Guards and Infantry, and he must have the intention to take over the post of deputy official left by Yang Wanli. Su Liuyi naturally favored his nephew.

Concubine Yang Shu also wanted to help Yang Yidong regain control of the infantry guards.

The more Zhao Dongting thought about it, the colder it became. This morning court, nine times out of ten, was a scene they directed and performed themselves.

Su Quandang's impeachment was premeditated.No way, they had already discussed it with Concubine Yang Shu.

Now, Yang Yidong regained control of the infantry guards, and Su Quandang was promoted to deputy official as he wished. They can be said to have won a complete victory.

"It's all an exchange of benefits..."

Zhao Dongting felt emotional in his heart, realizing that his way of doing things was not suitable for the court of the Southern Song Dynasty.Hundreds of officials are divided into factions, and if they want to stand in line, they must be given enough benefits.If Concubine Yang Shu hadn't given Su Quandang the post of deputy official, I'm afraid Su Quandang and Su Liuyi might not have worked so hard to impeach Yue Peng, and even joined forces with other generals.

Contemplating all the way, he quickly returned to the bedroom.

Seeing Zhao Dongting coming back, Yinger greeted her and said, "Your Majesty, did you leave so early?"

She was still happy for Zhao Dongting, thinking that Zhao Dongting had been recognized by the Queen Mother.

Zhao Dongting nodded and didn't say much.He didn't want Yinger to be unhappy with these troublesome things.

Li Yuanxiu is Zhao Dongting's close eunuch, and it was Zhao Dongting who survived Concubine Yang Shu's hand at the beginning, but he stood by Zhao Dongting's side, and said softly at this time: "Your Majesty, according to this old slave, it doesn't matter what the guards are. Alright, so the emperor will have the energy to study martial arts wholeheartedly."

Zhao Dongting groaned for a few moments and didn't answer, just said: "Let Yue Peng come and see me."

Li Yuanxiu answered lightly.

However, before he went to Xuan Yuepeng, a eunuch shouted outside the door: "The Queen Mother is here."

Then the door was pushed open, and Concubine Yang Shu walked in slowly.The little eunuchs and court ladies were all waiting outside the house.

Zhao Dongting was a little puzzled, and said lightly: "Why is mother here?"

Concubine Yang Shu asked Yinger and Li Yuanxiu to retreat, and then said to Zhao Dongting with a smile: "Yes, are you angry with your mother?"

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Zhao Dongting simply nodded, and said bluntly, "Mother, why don't you let the child take charge of the political affairs?"

Concubine Yang Shu sat down on Zhao Dongting's seat, "You didn't pay much attention to political affairs before, why are you so urgent now?"

Zhao Dongting said: "Yes, I want to recover the Song Dynasty!"

Concubine Yang Shu smiled softly, "No, I don't believe that my son will have such a big change after recovering from a serious illness."

Hearing this, Zhao Dongting's heart tensed instantly, and an ominous premonition spread.

Sure enough, Concubine Yang Shu's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Before and after your serious illness, your temperament has changed drastically, and you are like two different people. You used to call me 'Niangniang' but now you call me 'Mother', and you used to play around. Now, you are trying your best to control yourself and act savagely. Tell me, who are you? What kind of magic did you use to change into the appearance of my son? Where is my son?"

It turned out that she had already suspected Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting smiled wryly in his heart.
