I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan

Chapter 46 How is the night?Ye Weiyang
As time passed day by day, everything in Chang'an City seemed to return to its original track.

East Palace Changle, only the news that 'the empress dowager's illness is getting worse' spreads every day, which makes everyone who hears it lament.

Like the first emperor Liu Heng, the Empress Dowager Bo is also the "virtuous queen" in the hearts of the world;
Few people are not saddened by the fact that Mrs. Bo is dying.

As for Liu Sheng, it was still the same as usual, going to the old Marquis of An to chat with Shen Tujia every day, or ask for advice;

Occasionally, when Shen Tujia was unable to spare time, Liu Sheng would also come to Changle Palace to visit his great-grandmother who was seriously ill.

Even if every time, he could only get a reply from the old eunuch who was nearly sixty years old, "Young Master's heart, the Queen Mother knows it", Liu Sheng still did the same;

Not for anything else, just for peace of mind.

Even though he didn't have much relationship with the Empress Dowager Bo, Liu Sheng instinctively thought that he should visit the elder who was seriously ill;

Even if this elder is no doubt like a stranger to himself, this is still the responsibility of the younger generation.

As for Chao Cuo, it seemed to have subsided a lot during this time.

Especially after the empress dowager's condition became more and more serious, even to the extent that the emperor Liu Qi had to visit her every now and then, Chao Cuo was in the court, and strangely did not mention the "Strategy for Cutting Fans".

For this change, there is no doubt about him inside and outside the court;
Only when the emperor Liu Qi's attention was attracted by the empress dowager's condition and he had no time to take care of him, Chao Cuo stopped for a while.

But in such a strange calm, Chao Cuo's figure appeared in the internal history office on a certain night in Xia June;

Appearing with Chao Cuo were several masked men and a humble young man.

If Liu Sheng was here, he would definitely recognize it at a glance: this young man who flattered Chao Cuo and wished he could lick a hook on the spot was the concierge of his teacher Shen Tujia...

·
"Grand Chao;"

"It's cleared."

A muffled report made Chao Cuo turn his head quietly and look at the hole in the wall from afar.

Here is Chao Cuo's internal history office, which is located outside the east wall of Weiyang Palace;

But the gate to enter and exit Weiyang Palace is the Sima Gate on the north wall.

Therefore, although Chao Cuo's Neishifu Yamen is separated from Weiyang Palace by a wall, it takes a long detour to get in and out of Weiyang Palace.

It’s like a family living by the river. The other side of the river is the workplace, but in order to go to work, it takes a long detour to get to the bridge;
After crossing the bridge, it takes a long walk to reach the work unit.

Then Chao Cuo, can you just punch a hole in the east wall of Weiyang Palace directly to the west of the Neishi Mansion?

Obviously not.

But not being able to smash the wall of Weiyang Palace doesn't mean that the wall of the "neighbor" next door cannot be chiseled by Chao Cuo.

Unlike the Neishi yamen, the back door of this 'neighbor' leads to the Weiyang Palace.

As long as the low wall between the Neishi Yamen and this "neighbor" is opened, Chao Cuo can use the back door of the "neighbor"'s house to directly enter Weiyang Palace.

But I don't know why: it was just a matter of digging a wall, but Chao Cuo chose to do it in the middle of the night.

While the masked men were wielding stone hammers and digging through the hole in the wall, Chao Cuo never dared to approach the scene;

Even after the door had been dug open, Chao Cuo only dared to take a look at it from a distance, but he didn't dare to step forward to check it.

After roughly seeing the outline of the door opening that had been dug open, Chao Cuo looked around sullenly to make sure that no one else was present, so Chao Cuo slowly lowered his head.

From his bosom, he took out a bag of gold cakes that he had prepared a long time ago, and Chao Cuo threw it to the front without hesitation, and reported to the man.

"Take the money and you can go."

"After dawn tomorrow, if you haven't run out of the hundred-mile radius of Chang'an, then don't blame me for enforcing the law and arresting you..."

Hearing Chao Cuo's undisguised threats, the masked man smiled nonchalantly, weighed the several gold cakes wrapped in cloth, and beckoned his companions to scatter away, and disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

After the group of masked men left, Chao Cuo finally turned around, looked at the young man with a serious expression, and patted the young man on the shoulder heavily.

"My mother's illness, I have already asked someone to go to Kanto, and found a famous doctor Chunyuyi;"

"As long as Chunyu Yi is invited to Chang'an, your mother's illness will definitely be cured..."

"Chun Yuyi?!"

"The father of the filial daughter Tiying?"

Seeing the young man's surprised question, Chao Cuo only nodded heavily.

"Your worries, I have already solved them for you."

"In return, I need you to do one thing for me."

Hearing Chao Cuo's words, the young man hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded heavily.

As early as a few days ago, when Chao Cuo found himself in private and said that he could find a doctor for him to cure his mother, the young man had already guessed: Chao Cuo may be asking for something from himself.

Moreover, it is very likely that he needs to do something that is not conducive to his employer, Shentu Jia.

So in the past few days, the young people have been in entanglement all the time, and did not agree to Chao Cuo's 'invitation'.

But today, when Chao Cuo said that he had invited Chun Yuyi, a famous doctor, to treat his mother, the young man could only grit his teeth and agree, even if he still had doubts.

——Looking at his mother being tortured by illness, the young man is really heartbroken...

"don’t worry;"

"I don't want you to be detrimental to your master."

Seeing the young man nodding, but still showing a gradual sense of guilt on his face, Chao Cuo only comforted him softly;
Then he turned around and pointed to the opened doorway in the distance.

"You just need to go home now and tell Shen Tujia the truth about this, and you will be repaying my kindness."

"I will never break my promise to you."

Hearing Chao Cuo's words, the doubt on the young man's face faded a little, then he raised his head in a daze, looked at the hole in the wall in the distance.

"I, how should I report to the prime minister?"

But seeing Chao Cuo smile strangely, he stretched out his hand and patted the young man's shoulder.

"After you go back, tell the prime minister: a door has been cut open in the south wall of the internal history office."

"Remember, the internal history belongs to the Yanan wall."

"Just, that's all?"

"That's right, that's all."

A little surprised, he expressed doubts, and seeing Chao Cuo nodded again, the young man felt relieved.

With guilt on his face, he waved goodbye to Chao Cuo, and the young man trotted towards Shang Guanli.

And after the young man left, Chao Cuo's extremely indifferent face finally showed a smile of success.

"Shen Tujia..."

"What a good subject..."

"pity."

"It's a pity~"

Accompanied by a long sigh and a burst of eerie laughter, Chao Cuo's figure, like the group of masked men before, disappeared into the darkness.

But there is no doubt that this night in Chang'an is destined to be impossible to be peaceful...
