The last conscience of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 65
People like Zhao Ji...

Suddenly, Liang Xin opened her eyes, walked to Zhao Ji, and said directly: "There is an excuse. When the eldest lady heard about the suffering of the people in Hehuang, she was overly sad and suffered from heart disease. She sent a proclamation that after the great funeral, the army The troops are sent to the northwest..."

"Yes, yes, just write it." Zhao Ji suddenly realized that this was a genius idea.

First, let’s get rid of the matter of how Empress Dowager Xiang died.

And you can send troops legitimately.

As long as Hehuang wins a big victory, he will become a sage.

Suddenly, Zhao Ji glanced at Liang Xin, feeling a small sense of loss in his heart.

Because of the national mourning, Liang Xin's wedding has to be postponed.

But immediately, Zhao Ji felt relieved again.

Because he thought that during the national mourning period, restaurants in Bianjing City were only allowed to eat, not drinking, singing and dancing, let alone serving wine.

Therefore, it does not matter if it is postponed for one month.

Zhao Ji felt at ease again. He looked at the appeal he had just written and felt that it was not strong enough, so he rewrote it.

Formal, go back and ask the old guys in the court to write it, you just need to show off.

What is Liang Xin thinking in her head right now?

There is only one question, if such a big thing happens and I am in the palace, will the people in the court be suspicious of me.If his father-in-law Cao Ping asked him, how should he answer?

Let’s talk about Liang Mansion.

Li Qingzhao was still regretting the painting that had been revealed as three.

Suddenly, a group of eunuchs and palace ladies rushed into the courtyard.

First, take down all the colored lights in the courtyard, then the satin curtains...

All put on white cloth.

Only then did Li Qingzhao know that the eldest lady had passed away.

It was too sudden.

Li Qingzhao didn't know. In fact, no one knew.

No one can even think of it.

From the moment Liang Xin asked Zhao Ji to go to Cai Jing's house to pick out paintings, Liang Xin was setting up this plan, starting from building confidence in Zhao Ji, and then..., one by one, one by one.The only miscalculation was that Zhao Ji was a bit over the top, and the Empress Dowager's heart ailment was so serious.

A violent outburst caused a heart attack.

There is no right or wrong.

Things have happened, just be prepared to deal with what is about to happen next.

At this time, in the palace.

All palaces have prepared for mourning.

The chief steward of Princess Zhu's palace stood alone under a dead old locust tree. As a person who had been in the palace since childhood and stayed in the palace for half his life, he understood.

He also went to see it himself.

The chief steward of Wei in the Empress Dowager's palace died by taking poison. According to the official statement in the palace, he committed suicide because of his poor service to the empress.

Afterwards, many eunuchs and maids seemed to be strangled to death by ribbons, but something strange could still be seen.

Some swallow gold, some swallow mercury...

This proves that they clearly know that they must die.

Then Zhao Youfu killed everyone in the Empress Dowager Xiang's palace.

Bai E turned around and glanced at the stone platform under the tree. Just a few days ago, a young eunuch was killed here by King Jian's order.

King Jian, Zhao Si! ! !
You are so cold-blooded and ruthless at such a young age!

call……

Bai E took a long breath and quietly returned to Princess Zhu's palace. Then he took some things and put them on his body. On the pretext of going to get some white silk, he asked about the ceremony's procedures.

Soon, Bai E found Liang Shicheng, who was directing the eunuchs on duty in the palace to conduct funeral arrangements.

When there was no one around Liang Shicheng, Bai E stepped forward.

Liang Shicheng saluted first: "Manager Bai."

According to age, Bai E is the elder.

According to his position in the palace, Bai E is already the father-in-law in front of the palace, from the second rank.

At this time, Liang Shicheng was the eunuch in charge, starting from the fifth rank, and then he was the father-in-law, the fifth rank.Therefore, Liang Shicheng saluted first.

Bai E plopped down and knelt in front of Liang Shicheng, holding a paper bag in his hand: "An old dog, begging for work!" Liang Shicheng did not take the paper bag, and quickly raised Bai E with both hands: "What do you keep saying? I'm going to the palace." At that time, you will be the Grand Eunuch. In terms of seniority, you are the same generation as my master. This is killing the junior, killing the junior."

After helping the person up, Liang Shicheng stuffed the paper bag into his arms, and then said: "In the past, during festivals and other festivals, I wanted to kowtow to you, but I was afraid that my low status would disturb you. From now on, I am always respected by you, and I must be filial to you during New Year's Day and so on."

Bai E held Liang Shicheng's hand and said, "We will meet you in defeat."

"There's a lot going on today, how about staying here for a while?"

"Congratulations."

The two exchanged a few polite words, then Bai E turned and left.

In the palace, Liang Shicheng and Zhao Youfu analyzed that although they had the upper hand, there were still some things they could not afford to offend. That is, the father-in-law who had led the army in the Shenzong era was now in the second rank.

Most of these people are in conflict with them, but they get along well with each other.

Manager Wei from the Queen Mother Palace said that this was a sudden and unexpected event.

He had to die.

On this point, those high-level companies with powerful connections from the Shenzong era are not blind.

However, Liang Shicheng was a little surprised by Bai E's sudden move.

Liang Shicheng was just an accident.

Outside the palace, Han Zhongyan was caught off guard.

Their old law line had just turned over and had just made a slight improvement. Although they also lost a lot of people in this mutual impeachment, they still had a slight upper hand.

Queen Mother Xiang died suddenly.

Han Zhongyan was sitting in the study, his whole body sluggish.

How to do?
Does the current emperor support the old line of law or the new line of law?

Han Zhongyan couldn't see clearly.

But he saw it too clearly.

a waste!
Yes, although Han Zhongyan is a bit... cowardly, he is not stupid.

Who will cause trouble next?

King Jian went to Zhangdun's Mansion, even if he went quietly. At this time of great storm, Han Zhongyan also knew how many informants were active in Bianjing City.

There was another person who also went to Zhangdun Mansion.

Zong Ze.

Seeing Zongze, Zhang Dun said, "His Royal Highness Jian came to see me and we talked a lot."

In fact, Zhang Dun deceived Zongze.

King Jian is here, but Zhang Dun and King Jian Zhao Si said a total of ten words.

When I think about it, I said these three words three times.

Finally, add a um.

There are ten words in total.

At this time, what he said to Zongze was that he and King Jian had talked a lot.

Zhang Dun added: "Yes. I am indeed ready to go out. I support the use of troops in the northwest. This is to contribute to the country, although I am not optimistic about the current officials."

Comeback!

According to Zongze.

After Zhang Dun heard the news that Empress Dowager Xiang died of illness, he wanted to come back.

The next day.

Edict: The whole country is in mourning and the court is suspended for seven days.

Throughout Bianjing City, all restaurants, goulan and other places have ceased operations.

Bright colors are prohibited throughout the city.

In front of the coffin of the Empress Dowager, Zhao Ji knelt there, not feeling sad, but very happy.

Finally, no one cares about themselves anymore.

Liang Shicheng stepped forward: "Guan family, I thought the courtiers were coming soon, and my lord should be sad."
