The jade master was placed in the side hall. Even the Empress Dowager was startled and came at night. Before she came, she had already sent people out of the palace to invite Gu Changle.

"Emperor, Taifu is old." The Empress Dowager looked at her silver haired brother. In the late night of the cold winter, she had to enter the palace, and her heart was sour. Looking at the silent emperor, she spoke heavily.

"I know that Taifu is very old. If there is no way, I will not let him enter the palace." The emperor is upset. Before he came up with a way to deal with the refugees, old master Yu fainted like this. Isn't that adding to the chaos?

The Empress Dowager said, "Taifu has gone to his hometown several times, but you don't approve. Let him go this time."

The emperor was silent. He didn't want to allow old master Yu to return home, but there were too few people in the court that he could trust wholeheartedly.

"Mother, do you know that the refugees have surrounded the capital?" The emperor asked in a low voice.

"I heard about it." When the Empress Dowager entered the palace, she had seen many refugees on the way. She reminded the emperor at the beginning. He didn't pay attention to it. "Since three years ago, there have been disasters in the East, so it's time to pay attention to them."

The emperor's eyes flashed with anger, "mother is blaming me for not listening to Taifu's advice at the beginning? At that time, it was just a drought. How many droughts were there every year. It will be fine in a few months. I didn't know the East would be dry for such a long time. "

"There is still a way to remedy it." The Empress Dowager said, "otherwise, when all the refugees revolt, invade outside and cause civil strife, Dazhou will be the most dangerous." The Empress Dowager advised.

"Why don't I know how to remedy it?" The emperor said angrily“ Mother, after so many years of drought in the East, how much money the imperial court has given relief to, the Treasury has long been empty. Even if we increase taxes, we can't afford to spend so much. "

The Empress Dowager asked, "what is the emperor going to do?"

The emperor's eyes welled up to kill, "if... All the refugees are dead?"

“!” When the Empress Dowager heard the answer, she was not surprised. "It's not far from the end of the great Zhou Dynasty."

"I will never let Da Zhou perish." The emperor whispered“ Never

"Tell the emperor that Princess Zhaoyang has arrived." The voice of the palace people came from outside.

Emperor Zhou's face softened. He said to the Empress Dowager in a low voice, "I'm sure that Taifu will tell him to return home. When those refugees leave, he wants to leave Kyoto City and leave. "

The Empress Dowager said, "the AI family is thanking the Taifu."

"Mother, if he was alive, would you..." Emperor Zhou came to the door and asked in a low voice.

"The emperor." The Empress Dowager interrupted him, "there is no if in the world."

Emperor Zhou's body stopped for a moment and strode away.

Gu Changle hurried into the side hall“ Empress dowager, what happened to my grandfather? "

"Go and have a look. I'm looking pretty good. Maybe I'm old. I can't stand the strain. " The Empress Dowager said, let Gu Changle to feel the pulse for old jade first.

"Yes." Gu Changle came to the couch, put his hand on the pulse of old master Yu, and saw that old master Yu's fingers moved, but his face was still asleep.

The Empress Dowager came over and said, "Zhaozhao, how are you? The imperial doctor said that he couldn't see the problem. Maybe he was overworked and asked Taifu to have a good rest. "

Gu Changle said without changing his face, "my grandfather is very old after all. I really can't bear the tiredness of breaking my heart for the emperor and the prince these days. Just wait for him to wake up and go home to recuperate."

"That's good." The Empress Dowager was relieved. "The emperor has already agreed to return Taifu to his hometown. When the refugees outside retreat, the AI family will persuade him to leave Kyoto City."

I'm afraid my grandfather would like to leave without persuasion.
