The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 916
This is already the next day.

At this time, the letter that Liu Hongyi sent before had landed in Changsha City.

Holding the letter, Yi Shiyu hurried to the imperial study to see Zhao Dongting.

I only went outside the imperial study room, and heard from the guards outside the imperial study room that the emperor had gone to the main hall to summon all the ministers to discuss matters.

Yi Shiyu went to the main hall again.

Outside the main hall, you can see Zhao Dongting sitting on the throne wearing a dragon robe inside.Lu Xiufu, Su Liuyi, Chen Wenlong, Zhang Xizai, Wang Wenfu and others were all listed in Longting.

There were two people sitting beside Zhao Dongting, the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing and the Empress Dowager Yang Shufei.

It's just that the atmosphere in the hall at this time is a bit absurd.

Queen Dowager Quan didn't know what kind of insanity she had given birth to, but she was crying and shouting in the hall at this moment.

She is forcing the palace.

During these days in the palace, she did not know what method to use, but gathered some "remonstrators" who claimed to be clean.

Now these people, headed by her, are using Zhao Dongting to assassinate Zhao Xian, causing domestic grievances and riots to be a disaster, and are asking Zhao Dongting to issue an edict of guilt.

The Empress Dowager Quan is afraid that she also understands that in the entire Song Dynasty, except for Zhao Dongting, no one is qualified to ascend to the throne.It is impossible for her to bring down Zhao Dongting, but if Zhao Dongting commits a crime against herself, she can finally vent her anger.

Because of Zhao Xian's death, this woman is obviously extremely crazy.

She obviously didn't think about how much trouble would arise in Song Dynasty if Zhao Dongting issued an edict to sin against herself.

People's grievances will not be appeased because of Zhao Dongting's criminal edict. If Zhao Dongting said that Zhao Xian was assassinated by his own people, his prestige would be lost, and it would only make the Song Dynasty more chaotic.

Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Dongting to agree to Queen Mother Quan.

It's just that facing this rambunctious woman and those Qingliu who seem loyal but are actually ignorant, they feel a little helpless.

Lu Xiufu and others are still waiting and watching.

There is still no definite statement about Zhao Xian's death.Lu Xiufu and the others did not reveal this matter in their hearts.

What would they think if Zhao Dongting couldn't help being furious at this time and punished the Queen Mother Quan and Qingliu, who still had a lot of prestige among the people, scholars in the government and the public?

What would those readers think?
Sitting on the throne, Zhao Dongting's face was so gloomy that it looked like the sky was about to rain heavily.

When Zhao Xian was assassinated, he had mud in his crotch, whether it was shit or shit, he couldn't tell.

Now, Wu Amiao is already a member of Wu Dingtang, so he can't say anything.

Fortunately, when Wu Amiao entered the palace, she was covered in blood, and Xie Daoqing and others didn't pay attention.Otherwise, I am afraid that Xie Daoqing and others will be like the Queen Mother now.

It's true that Wu Amiao didn't make a move at the time, but he followed Takiyu after all!

Seeing the embarrassment on the faces of all the officials, Zhao Dongting waved his hand, intending to make everyone retreat like this.

He originally summoned Lu Xiufu and others to discuss the matter of raising rations and sending them to Liu Hongyi's army, because he didn't know how long it would take to force the Dali army back.Now that grain storage depots are being burned everywhere, it is always better to prepare for this kind of thing early.Now that the Queen Mother and others are making trouble, there is no way to talk about this matter.

And just when Zhao Dongting was waving his hand to retreat, Yi Shiyu happened to hurried into the hall.

He could also see that the atmosphere in the hall was not right, but with the military emergency report in his hand, he would not care about it so much.

Zhao Dongting once told him clearly that if there was an urgent military report, even if he, the emperor, fainted, he must find a way to wake him up.

"emperor!"

Yi Shiyu entered the hall and knelt down on the ground.

His appearance stopped the empress dowager's cries and the crowd's condemnation abruptly.

Everyone looked at the little eunuch who entered the palace "recklessly".

The Empress Dowager Quan raised her brows upside down, and when she came back to her senses, she shouted at Yi Shiyu: "Where is the little eunuch who doesn't know the rules, let me push him down and chop him up!"

As the Empress Dowager of the Song Dynasty, she still has such rights.

Yi Shiyu was a little confused.

"slow!"

Zhao Dongting couldn't hold back his anger, stood up and said, "This is the person appointed by me to deliver the letter, and I promised him that he can come and go anywhere in the palace at will."

Then he walked down Longting and asked Yi Shiyu, "Is there another military report?"

Yi Shiyu looked at the Queen Mother Quan who looked like a crazy woman with some fear, and said tremblingly: "Return, return to the emperor, this is an urgent report from Liu Anfu's army."

He hastily pulled out the bamboo tube from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting was slightly taken aback, "What's the matter with Guangnan West Road?"

The eyes of Lu Xiufu and others also fell on the secret letter instantly.

Guangnan West Road defeated the Dali army one after another, and Dali's general Wang Ziqian defected to Song Dynasty. They all know this matter now.

At this moment, everyone is naturally curious whether there is another major event happening on Guangnan West Road.

Then their eyes naturally focused on Zhao Dongting.

The Queen Mother was also slightly taken aback.

This is related to the military affairs of the whole country, and it is also related to the rise and fall of the Song Dynasty.At this level, she didn't dare to play tricks anymore.

More importantly, she was also curious about the content of the secret letter from Liu Hongyi.

She is not a stupid woman.

Zhao Dongting pulled out the seal on the bamboo tube and pulled out the letter.

"Ha ha!"

In just a few seconds, his big laughter resounded in the hall.

He did not expect that Liu Hongyi and others would completely defeat Chi Fenggu's army in such a short period of time.

This is of course much better than his original policy of forcing the Dali army out of Hengshan Village.

It was a surprise.

Su Liuyi, as the deputy commander, couldn't hold back at first, and asked with his hands folded: "Your Majesty, there is another good news?"

At this moment, no one is bothering with Zhao Xian's affairs.

The rise and fall of the Song Dynasty is more important than anything else.

Zhao Dongting looked around at the ministers and said with a loud smile, "Fushi Liu An, the two brothers of the Zhu family, Zhang Hongwei, Miao Cheng, Liu Zhuwen and others will smash the Dali army on the west side of Hengshanzhai. The war on the Guangnan West Road can be put to rest, and the three armies of Dali conquered our Great Song Dynasty, and now only the combined army is left, and it will not last long if we think about it!"

He didn't mention the burning of Hengshan Village.

Compared to the whole world, Hengshan Village is really nothing.

Moreover, after being made such a fuss by the Queen Mother and others just now, it is time for Chaozhong to cheer up people's hearts.

As Zhao Dongting's words fell, all the ministers' eyes flashed brightly, and then they couldn't stop showing excitement.

"God bless me Da Song..."

"The emperor is holy..."

In the main hall, the sound of "crying for heaven and earth" can be heard endlessly.

Even the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing, who was sitting on the Dragon Court, had a look of excitement on her face.

At the beginning, Da Song almost perished in her hands, and she herself was taken captive to the Mongolian plateau.She can better appreciate the rarity of this kind of prosperity.

This also made her even more reluctant to pursue the matter of Zhao Xian's assassination.

In the past, it was true that she loved Zhao Xian the most, but now, Zhao Dongting's achievements really made her unable to pick the slightest bit of thorns.

She even had the idea of ​​helping Zhao Dongting "exonerate".

Because the Song Dynasty needed such an emperor.

The Empress Dowager Quan's face was slightly pale.

If someone pays attention, they will definitely find that her hands are shaking slightly at this moment, and her eyes are extremely tranced.

This good news obviously caused waves in her heart.

Seeing the joy of all the ministers, she just lost her mind.

At this time, Zhao Dongting looked at her, and said with some complacency: "Queen Mother, you don't want to issue an edict of guilt at this juncture, do you?"

The Queen Mother returned to her senses and stared at Zhao Dongting with a bit of viciousness, "No matter how good you are at fighting, you can't cover up your evil deed of killing your brother!"

"The Empress Dowager speaks carefully."

Seeing her speak so bluntly, Zhao Dongting's eyes were filled with seriousness, "Emperor Gong's death was not caused by me. I have said this countless times. If the Queen Mother insists on doing this outrageous thing like this If the matter falls on my head, don't blame me for not being sympathetic!"

He obviously has enough confidence now.

"Shut up!"

Even Xie Daoqing, who was sitting upright in the Dragon Court, showed dissatisfaction towards Queen Dowager Quan, "Queen Dowager, step down first!"

She always called the Queen Mother that way.

The Empress Dowager Quan directly said that Zhao Xian was killed by Zhao Dongting in the hall, obviously she was too ignorant of the general situation.Some things, even if they are true, cannot be said on certain occasions.

Hearing Xie Daoqing's voice, the Queen Mother was slightly startled.

Then, she took a deep look at Xie Daoqing twice, and then walked out of the hall.

She now also understands that the great victory of Guangnan West Road has made Xie Daoqing gradually lean towards Zhao Dongting.

Xie Daoqing used to be in charge of the government. In her heart, grandchildren are not as important as the country.

How fickle the royal family is.
