Jia Zhen, Uncle of the Red House

　　But hearing Jia Zhen's mocking face-to-face, Wu Tianyou said anxiously, "Your Majesty, please rectify the crime of laxity under Duke Ning!"

　　"Joke!" Jia Zhen reprimanded: "Wu Tianyou, don't make a mistake, it is the general soldier of Xuanfu who is not strictly governed!" He turned and played to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please investigate the crime of the general soldier of Xuanfu. , and investigate whether he colluded with the courtiers, with bad intentions!"

　　This time Wu Tianyou jumped in a hurry, ignoring the disgrace in front of the king, and scolded: "Jia Zhen, you are talking nonsense, when did I collude with that Xuanfu commander?"

　　"Oh?" Jia Zhen made the ending very long, and the meaning was self-evident.

　　The emperor glared at Wu Tianyou in disgust that iron could not become steel, how stupid!

　　I've never seen myself give the handle to someone else.

　　Jia Zhen immediately played: "Your Majesty, please treat Wu Tianyou as a traffic officer, for an unidentified crime!"

　　Wu Tianyou sweated coldly on his forehead, knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, this minister..."

　　The emperor picked up a memorial and read it, and said with a smile: "Just like him, give him the courage, and dare not!"

　　Jia Zhen lowered her head, savoring the emperor's attitude.It was expected that the emperor would protect Wu Tianyou, but he thought he would reprimand him for at least two sentences. Who knew that the emperor would directly give him no, and when Wu Tianyou was impeaching himself just now, the emperor only watched the play, a little Maintenance doesn't mean anything.

　　Jia Zhen gradually began to realize that all this was actually what the emperor wanted to see, and he didn't want Jia Zhen's family to dominate the court.

　　In this case, Jia Zhen retreated and asked for the next best thing, "Your Majesty, the general of Xuanfu is to blame for such a thing. It must be severely punished!" There could only be one voice in the Beijing camp.

　　The emperor was silent.

　　He also thought of Jia Zhen's purpose for doing this, but if he agreed, wouldn't everything he had done in the past be completely useless?

　　Jia Zhen clearly felt the emperor's hesitation.

　　Therefore, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "My minister, please restore the East and West official halls, and use the ministers to manage the old Beijing camp, and the border troops will be deployed into a hall of their own, and the good generals will rule them."

　　When Jia Zhen said this, it was right in the emperor's arms, but he couldn't agree directly, which hurt Jia Zhen's heart.

　　At this time, Wu Tianyou hurriedly agreed without thinking: "Your Majesty, this minister thinks that Ning Guogong's words are old to seek the country, and it is indeed necessary to restore the East and West official halls. This minister recommends the Marquis of Xiangyang..."

　　"Shut up!" The emperor stopped him and said, "I believe Ning Guogong and entrust the Beijing camp to him, so I can rest assured. The so-called restoration of the East and West official halls is not allowed!"

　　The emperor was disappointed with Wu Tianyou's brain at this moment.He was thinking about how to deal with the aftermath just now, but was ruined by Wu Tianyou's hasty recommendation.

　　Jia Zhen lowered her head, she couldn't understand the emperor's mind any more, and it was impossible for any emperor to hand over such a heavy military power to one person.But Jia Zhen is just uncomfortable, didn't she want to be like this at the beginning?Now that he has to divide his military power, should we also talk about compensation or something?

　　So Jia Zhen waited for the emperor to negotiate terms with him. Half of the military power should be exchanged for at least one equal wife?At this time, he was still thinking about this?

　　Seeing that Jia Zhen didn't speak, the emperor thought he was resentful.Thinking of how many times he was born and died, he was loyal, and when he saw that he had settled the trouble again, he came to file a report without even returning home and changing clothes. He was considered diligent and relieved a little.

　　This time, it must be Wu Tianyou who provoked it, and the general army of Xuanfu cooperated.The strategy is clumsy and full of loopholes.

　　Therefore, the emperor reprimanded Wu Tianyou: "Do your own thing well, don't worry about the rest, kneel down!"

　　Wu Tianyou still has to persuade, this is a great opportunity, why doesn't the emperor listen?He sighed, what a pity!Just a little bit.

　　When he went to Changchun Palace and told Concubine Wu about this, Concubine Wu almost smashed one of her favorite bottles on the spot.She raised her eyebrows, pointed at Wu Tianyou and scolded: "How did I explain to you first? Don't fight with Jia Zhen, the emperor will have a way to deal with him, we just need to be a oriole. Why don't you listen The self-righteous stumbles on people, and the result? Jia Zhen is so easily brought down?"

　　Wu Tianyou was not reconciled, "I thought the emperor was clearly going to deal with Jia Zhen, so why don't we do it for him first, so that we can gain both his trust and authority, wouldn't we have both?"

　　Wu Guifei said annoyed: "You still haven't seen clearly, when will the emperor deal with Jia Zhen? In terms of trust, the emperor's trust in him far exceeds you."

　　Wu Tianyou puzzled: "Then why is this?"

　　……

　　The emperor has never regarded trust as a reliance.The emperor has always only relied on himself, trusting that this kind of thing will not appear on the emperor, he is not born to accept anyone, but he shows that he is willing to trust anyone.

　　Therefore, the emperor comforted Jia Zhen and said, "Don't have other ideas, I believe in you!"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, this minister has wanted to tell you for a long time. This minister has always been lazy and impatient to do these practical things, but he is afraid that your Majesty will say that the minister is lazy."

　　The emperor laughed and scolded: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell you now?"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, the minister is also selfish. I beg you to promise the minister a condition!"

　　The emperor's eyes narrowed, "Oh? You even put conditions on me? Tell me?"

　　Jia Zhen stepped forward and smiled shyly: "Your Majesty, you know that this minister only has a small request."

　　The emperor laughed and scolded: "Your request is not allowed! Want to pull me into the water? Don't even think about it!"

　　Jia Zhen hurriedly said, "Don't tell me, Your Majesty, can't you just make an exception because of your loyal and loyal ministers?"

　　The emperor still shook his head, "I won't break this rule for you, you only need to manage the Beijing camp for me, don't think about it!"

　　Jia Zhen pretended to be wronged and complained: "Your Majesty, this is a matter of your words. If you open one eye and close one eye, I will be grateful for your grace!"

　　The emperor pointed at him and said with a smile: "I don't know you yet? If I open a hole for you, you will dare to dig a river for me! Today I have approved your request, and tomorrow you will want me to agree to the first. Two and three."

　　Jia Zhen asked again: "But the minister has already promised others..."

　　The emperor cursed: "That's your business! Go away, don't let me see you again!"

　　Jia Zhen knew that the emperor would not agree, but he still brought it up, just to tell the emperor that his only purpose was for her, that his family was his dead end, and even if someone like him was ambitious, Also limited tight.

　　In fact, the emperor also had concerns. After several rebellions, he finally got rid of the hidden constraints and completely controlled the military power in Gyeonggi. The embarrassing thing was that he had to rely on Jia Zhen, because besides Jia Zhen, he could not find Bi Jia. Jane is more suitable for a more loyal courtier.Separation of powers and checks and balances is the emperor's instinct, but the reality requires centralized dictatorship, and this focus falls on Jia Zhen alone.Therefore, the emperor cannot but consider Jia Zhen's wishes.After all, isn't Jia Zhen's current power brought about by herself?

　　The two rulers and ministers seemed to have no barriers as before, and they were carefully maintaining each other's trust.

　　But a cracked bowl can't fit into a complete bowl anyway.Once something happens, I'm afraid it will fall apart.

Chapter [-] The curtain is opening

　　When Jia Zhen came out of the Daming Palace, he once again looked back at the majestic palace still standing on the high platform. He should remember this moment, always remember that he has deviated from the eyes of the emperor, and there is no road ahead. There are only dense thorns and traps, and if you are not careful, you will be full of them and have nothing.

　　Soon after, the emperor received Cui Yong, Minister of War.This Cui Shangshu is already the third main soldier this year. The first two positions were reprimanded because of the decree. Therefore, Cui Shangshu had to be careful. The black gauze hat on the top of his head is too small, and his head will not grow out if he is removed.

　　The mountain call is over, and Cui Shangshu, who is [-] years old this year, is still kneeling properly.The emperor shouted, but without giving him a seat, he asked coldly, "What do you think of the matter in the Shenjing today?"

　　Cui Shangshu always had a draft, so he bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, today the soldiers of the Beijing camp are entering the city one after another to harass and cause trouble. According to the report of the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities, there are [-] places in total, and most of them are restaurants and green houses. Have fun."

　　The emperor asked blankly: "Someone said that this was a riot deliberately caused by the soldiers of the Beijing camp. What do you think of this soldier?"

　　Cui Shangshu saw sweat on his forehead, and said tremblingly: "If you go back to the emperor, these soldiers are all newly transferred from Xuanfu, the chief officer has not strictly restrained them, and the fierceness has not been restrained, so it is not uncommon for quarrels and fights. If you want to talk about riots or even mutiny, it’s definitely not. My minister was in Ningxia back then, and the rebels were mad, and the place where they passed was a mound of ruins, how could it be like this now?”

　　The emperor paused for a while, and his voice could not tell whether he liked or disliked, "You came late, you should know what Ning Guogong did?"

　　Cui Shangshu replied: "This minister has seen it in person. The minister's house is not far from the Guangju Building of Yanshoufang, and there are also more than a dozen Jingying soldiers who broke in. They shouted wantonly, and beat the crowd after getting drunk. Who is it? Not long after Ning Guogong arrived on horseback, he immediately asked the Beijing battalion rank and rank and surname, then asked what he did, and three questions about whether it hurt anyone. Those Beijing battalion soldiers did not know Jia Zhen, so they didn't answer the three questions. He spoke and scolded. So Jia Zhen dismounted, and he was invincible with one enemy. Later, he ordered the soldiers of the Beijing camp to compensate the wounded for medicine, and ordered them to return to the camp. Based on what the ministers saw and heard, the rest of the place was great. Kind of like that."

　　The emperor tapped his finger on the throne, "So, does Duke Ning have merit?"

　　Cui Shangshu was still pondering, and it is natural to have merit, but the emperor asked this question, and he certainly did not want this answer.

　　So he replied cautiously: "Even though Duke Ning has resolved the crisis in Shenjing, but... after all, this is his responsibility. So it seems... it is indeed... a little bit of a loss of duty."

　　The emperor didn't know if it was possible or not, and sneered: "How did I hear that the register of these Xuanfu defense troops is still in the Ministry of War? So, the culprit is indeed the Xuanfu general soldier?"

　　Cui Shangshu thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, in the opinion of a minister, the general officer of Xuanfu is directly responsible, and should be removed from office. Duke Ning should assume leadership responsibility, and think that he can stabilize the capital in a timely manner, and his merits and demerits are worth it.

　　This opinion is fairly stable, and no one can fault it.

　　At this time, the emperor drove away the others in the hall and gave Cui Shangshu a seat.

　　Cui Shangshu was flattered and only willing to sit on the edge of the seat.

　　I just heard the emperor ask from behind the throne: "Now it seems that it is a bit inappropriate to mix the Beijing battalion and the frontier army. What advice do you have for this soldier?"

　　……

　　Inside the Changchun Palace, Concubine Wu held a precious Persian cat in her arms and stroked its fur gracefully.Wu Tianyou has been scolded and sat down to the side, "So, did I really do something stupid?"

　　Concubine Wu said with a smile: "Father, there are blessings and misfortunes, so you have to look at it. When the emperor needs someone to come out and fight against Jia Zhen, you come out, he will definitely remember it in his heart, that's enough."

　　Wu Tianyou sighed and said, "Eating a cut will make you wiser, and I will never do such stupid things again."

　　"No!" Concubine Wu shook her head, "Father not only can't stop, but he has to make persistent efforts to find fault with Jia Zhen."

　　Wu Tianyou questioned: "Why is that? Niangniang, didn't you say that the emperor trusted him? Wouldn't it be a waste of time to do so?"

　　Concubine Wu had no way to imagine such a father, so she could only explain it to him in detail: "Father has no power in the court at the moment, we take this opportunity to recruit people who are hostile to Jia Zhen and strengthen our own strength. The emperor must be happy to see this, and even support us. At this time, I will implement the plan we agreed on, and it will be the best of both worlds. "

　　Wu Tianyou thought for a while before asking, "How to do it?"

　　Concubine Wu Gui smiled confidently: "I already have a plan, just waiting for the opportunity."

　　"What time?" Wu Tianyou was still a little confused.

　　Concubine Wu Gui smiled, only her eyes drifted outside the city.

　　……

　　Jia Zhen frowned tightly, and didn't even see Baoqin beckoning not far away, she just hurried out of the palace.Baoqin did not receive the father-in-law, and returned to Fengzao Palace with a disappointed face.Yuanchun asked her strangely. After knowing the reason, he smiled and said, "You, my brother must have something to do, otherwise how can I not see you?"

　　Holding the piano and thinking about it, it should be like this, right?Anyway, she couldn't think of anything with her small head.

　　She added: "Niangniang, when the slaves came back, they saw many servants carrying limestone and sprinkled them in the corners, and I heard that some people with fever and headache were sent out for treatment. What are they doing? It made people panic. ."

　　Yuanchun also heard some rumors, saying that there was an epidemic in Ye Ting Palace today, and he didn't know whether it was true or not.

　　In short, the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital are in a hurry, and they are working hard to control the disease, not to treat the epidemic, but to control the scope as much as possible, so as not to spread the spread.

　　Fortunately, no one has been found sick in Fengzao Palace, otherwise, once the palace gate is closed, the people inside will not die, and it will not open the door.

　　Yuanchun anxiously wanted to find Jia Zhen for countermeasures, but who would have expected Jia Zhen to turn a blind eye to Baoqin?

　　I can only spread the news and think again.

　　She wrote down the methods that she could find in the book one by one, "Holding the piano, you go and tell the maids to do as I wrote from now on."

　　Baoqin recited a few words at random, "Niangniang, what is Laojun Shenxing San? And Qingwen Baidu Drink? And..."

　　Yuanchun hurriedly stopped her, "Stop reading, just take the medicine above from the Tai Hospital, decoct it, and that's it. Don't talk nonsense, or it will spread, saying that you are spreading rumors, even I'm going to eat the hangings too."

　　Baoqin saw that there was no one left or right, her face was blue and white, and she whispered: "Miss, is there an epidemic in the palace?"

　　Yuan Chun just shook his head, urging to go.

　　How dare you hold the piano to stop?I rushed to the hospital to get medicine.

　　……

　　Jia Zhen left the palace, returned to Ning Guofu, and shared her guess with Master Luo.

　　"Judging from the current situation, it seems that the emperor's splitting of the capital has become a foregone conclusion, but I just don't know when and how!"

　　Master Luo smiled and said, "Isn't this a matter of time? Master, do you really believe what the emperor said?"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "It's just a little sigh."
