I'm dressed as the villain of the novel

Chapter 16

Cui Zhihan frowned, puzzled and disdainful.

"Then the Nan family claims to be loyal for generations, and now that the little emperor takes the initiative to ask him for help, he will express his sincerity immediately. What bargaining chips are there?"

Cui Cen shook his head slowly, and smiled sarcastically: "That old man Nancang, he only has the country in his heart, and he doesn't have a king sitting on the dragon chair."

"Then..." Cui Zhihan raised his eyes and thought for a while, "You mean, this old man won't form an alliance with the emperor?"

"No."

Cui Cen looked at his son's puzzled expression, "Nan Cang depends on whether the emperor has the value of cooperation. Now this Wang Jin is the key."

Cui Zhihan was at a loss, Wang Jin was just a little eunuch, how could he be the key?
The eldest son's slowness made Cui Cen slightly disappointed and impatient, and he sighed helplessly.

"If your second brother is here, you must have understood what your father said. In this regard, you are indeed inferior to him."

Cui Zhihan's face froze slightly, and a look of embarrassment flashed across his eyes.

He hurriedly lowered his head and said, "My child is dull... I hope my father will teach me."

"The emperor will never be satisfied with the power in the palace. Next, he must deal with Wang Jin! If he succeeds in getting rid of Wang Jin, Nan Cang will definitely look at him with admiration."

Cui Zhihan suddenly realized, and then snorted:
"This time the little emperor was able to get things done, he was lucky, he came by surprise.

Wang Jin holds Dongchang and half of Jinyiwei in his hands.

If the little emperor wants to repeat the old tricks, it will be empty talk! "

"Those people around the emperor should not be underestimated."

Cui Zhihan's heart shuddered.

If his father hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten those people!
Especially the one who killed Chao Huan. It is said that it was the appearance of this person that turned the tide of the battle in the palace.

"Send someone to investigate and find out the background of those people."

Cui Cen's eyes were cold, and he ordered.

"Yes." Cui Zhihan agreed, and then hesitated, "Father, the aunt in the palace..."

"She will not be in danger of her life."

Cui Zhihan thought of his aunt's current situation, and felt compassion: "But the little emperor will not make my aunt feel better..."

"After all, she is considered the emperor's mother, and the word filial piety comes first!"

It is nothing more than house arrest and loss of freedom.

Cui Cen narrowed his eyes, and said again: "In the past few days, you should make more contact with Cao Xiong."

Cao Xiong?Cui Zhihan thought for a while before he remembered that this person was the eunuch Si Li Zhang Yin.

The palm seal of Li, known as the inner minister, ranks first among the supervisors of ceremonies.

Cao Xiong's status was originally higher than that of Bingbi eunuch Wang Jin, because Wang Jin was too powerful and his power was emptied.

"Father still intends to win him over?" Cui Zhihan couldn't believe it.

This Cao Xiong has no power, and doesn't even have much sense of existence.

So much so that he almost forgot that there was such a person.

"I want to cut off the possibility of him joining forces with the emperor."

Cui Zhihan disagreed: "What can Cao Xiong do to help the little emperor? He doesn't have any power in his hands."

"Everyone has ambitions, and those who have nothing are more willing to go. Besides, he and Wang Jin are incompatible. If he helps the emperor, he will go all out."

Cui Zhihan complied, but he still didn't take Cao Xiong to heart.

He just felt that his father was too cautious, even if the little emperor turned over a little bit now, it would not be enough to shake their Cui family.

Why pay attention to Cao Xiong?
but……

Since the father has ordered, he can't obey the law and disobey it.

Seeing that Wang Jin tried every means to make friends with the Cui family, this kind of good luck came to Cao Xiong, I don't know how to be grateful.

……

It was getting late, and it was time for dinner.

But the eunuchs serving in the palace saw the emperor's cold and depressed face at this moment, so they didn't dare to ask about the meal.

Xin Zhao is now looking at the report submitted by Xichang.

It was this report that made him angry secretly.

This report is the report of Xichang after the trial of the various supervisors and bureaus in the palace after today's change in the palace.

The eunuch institutions are collectively called 24 yamen, divided into twelve supervisors, four divisions and eight bureaus.

Among them, the Eighth Inner Supervisor was in charge of all affairs in the harem, and the Eighth Inner Supervisor was the first to be inspected by Xichang.

What annoyed Xin Zhao was that there were many methods against the queen recorded in this memorial.

Cutting food and clothing expenses is just a routine, and even put poisonous snakes, poisonous insects and animal carcasses in Changle Palace to scare Su Qingyu.

Most of the people in the palace are exalting the high and trampling the low.

The queen was not favored, and the court ladies and eunuchs were unwilling to serve in Changle Palace.

Those who have money and connections try to find ways to go to other palaces.

Those who have to stay will try their best to transfer them away.

Xin Zhao can even imagine...

How perfunctory and even disrespectful those people who served in Changle Palace would treat Su Qingyu on weekdays!

A dignified empress lives in the palace, but it is as miserable as a concubine who has been thrown into the cold palace.

Xin Zhao remembered that when he went to Changle Palace last night, it was late autumn, but there was not even a charcoal basin in the palace.

Kyoto is located in the north, and it is already cold in late autumn, and even worse at night.

When he got up the next day, he saw a charcoal fire burning in the hall.

Isn't this change because he stayed in Changle Palace?

These dog slaves found out that the queen was suddenly favored, so they flattered them?

Xin Zhao took this matter to heart at the time, but because the sovereignty of the palace had not been regained, it was difficult to find someone to completely replace the gang of snobbish eyes in Yongle Palace.

In addition, many concubines in the harem have taken care of the eunuchs to embarrass the queen.

Several eunuchs also confessed, Wei Guifei even joined forces with Xianfei to assassinate Su Qingyu.

Although I don't know how Su Qingyu escaped, but at this moment, Xin Zhao's chest is full of thunder and anger!

Once the queen was not favored and bullied, it was the fault of the faint king.

Su Qingyu is a queen, although she is not favored by the faint emperor, she is inevitably envied by other concubines.

Which woman doesn't want to be the mother of the world?Become the most honorable woman in the world?
The unfavored Su Qingyu occupied this position, so she would naturally be regarded as a thorn in the side of the other concubines in the harem.

Taking advantage of the situation, he plotted against her, bullied her, and even wanted her life viciously.

but……

The queen is now his woman!
Xin Zhao will never allow his woman to be bullied by others!

Not even once!
The bullying and humiliation she has suffered, I will take it back for her one by one!

Now, I am the real master of this palace, and those secrets in the palace should be completely cleared away!
Zhao Xinnu slapped the report on the table, the anger in his eyes flickered and danced under the candlelight.

"Command, I will hold a banquet in the imperial garden tonight!"

Xin Zhao sneered meaningfully, "All concubines in the palace must attend."

Soon, all the concubines of the Sangong Sixth Court received the news that the emperor was going to host a banquet.

All the concubines were excited and looking forward to it, and immediately ordered the palace people to dress up carefully.

In order to show off the crowd at the banquet and be noticed by the emperor.

What happened in the palace today, by this time all the concubines in the palace have more or less heard the wind.

They realize that the situation in the palace has changed, so they want to obtain the grace even more.

The emperor's banquet tonight is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Of course, there are also some people who smell the unusual atmosphere and are a little uneasy about going to the banquet tonight.

Party time is approaching.

Numerous delicacies and wines were placed in the imperial garden, and the concubines in costumes arrived one after another.

The beauties of the harem are full of beauty.

The bleakness of the late autumn night was dissipated a lot because of this.

The concubines took their seats one by one, eagerly waiting for the emperor's arrival.

"The Emperor is here—"

Hearing the loud singing, all the concubines stood up one after another, and countless pairs of eyes looked expectantly at the direction from which the sound came.

I saw the handsome and majestic young emperor coming with the unparalleled beauty of the empress.
