Chapter 58 Decisive Battle
Everyone in Cining Hall heard Zhao Xu's words.
But, it's even quieter!
No one answered, and the atmosphere seemed to be frozen in an instant, with a cold flowing.
The yellow gate not far away made Zhou He look up at Zhao Xu, his whole body is cold and his lips are trembling.
He turned to Empress Dowager Gao in panic, lowered his head again, shrank his shoulders, and couldn't help but shivering several times!
‘Then let’s go’, this sentence is not as simple as a court discussion on weekdays. It’s a decisive battle!
It is the official family and the Empress Dowager, the official family and the court, and the decisive battle between the official family and everyone!
If the court discussion tomorrow passes Cai Jing as the commander, then the Empress Dowager and the imperial ministers will be defeated, and the officials will succeed in power! The opposite is the Empress Dowager withdrew the curtain, and the consequences of the imperial ministers can be expected!
If Cai Jing cannot serve as the envoy of the sect, it will be a great defeat for the government! This defeat of the government will be a resignation with the Empress Dowager and the court, and will no longer be able to get involved in power or even endanger the throne!
Zhou He dared not think about what the ending will be tomorrow, and he dared not guess what terrible things will happen in the end!
Su Song frowned when he heard Zhao Xu's agreement, and his heart gradually became heavier.
Sure enough, something went wrong, but it was still a big problem!
There was no one in the court at all. Almost all the matter was the Empress Dowager, Lu Dafang was the leader, and the others were basically responding. In addition, Cai Jing's reputation was too bad, and the government would be destined to be defeated in the court meeting tomorrow!
What will happen in the future if the official family fails?
The four words "destroyed emperor and established another" appeared in Su Song's mind for the first time, and then he shook his head and denied it.
How can a minister abolish his lord?
Su Song browsed solemnly, and his light looked at Su Che beside him.
He finally understood why the Su brothers are so talented that they are the best in the world but are unsuccessful for half of their lives. They are so rigid and stubborn, ignorant and short-sighted, and will sooner or later bring disaster!
Su Che didn't realize anything. Zhao Xu finished speaking, raised his hand and said to Zhao Xu for the first time: "I obey the order."
Zhao Xu snorted coldly in his heart, and did not look at him at all. He stood up and said to Empress Dowager Gao: "Grandma, since I have decided to discuss the court, I will take my leave, and grandma will rest early."
Empress Dowager Gao is now thinking about how to revise his relationship with Zhao Xu in the future. Zhao Xu is an official in the Song Dynasty. Unless he really reaches the point of being so kind and righteous, as the Empress Dowager who ruled the country from behind the curtain, as a grandmother, she still has to take care of the emperor's grandson's feelings.
Even if it's just a show.
Empress Dowager Gao smiled and said, "Then follow the rules, and the government should have a good rest."
Zhao Xu responded and turned around and left Cining Hall.
Empress Dowager Gao kept looking at Zhao Xu until he left, and the smile on his face gradually calmed down and looked at the two Su Gongs in the hall.
Meiren Meng kept watching coldly, seeing Zhao Xu's situation clearly, and was worried. She glanced at the hall and stood up calmly and said, "Empress, I have something to do with me, so I will take my leave first."
Empress Dowager Gao wanted to 'liquid' the two Su Gongs. She nodded slightly and said, "Go."
After saying that, she suddenly said, "You are about to establish a queen. You should get close to the official family and go to see him off."
Meiren Meng was stunned for a moment. She was thinking about seeing Zhao Xu. In a flash, she returned to peace and said, "Yes."
Empress Dowager Gao looked at her stunned and said encouragemently: "Don't worry, it's what you said, we are a family."
Meiren Meng bowed and said respectfully: "Yes, I will leave."
Empress Dowager Gao was very satisfied with the grandson-daughter-in-law he had chosen. After watching her leave, her smile disappeared again and her eyes were coldly staring at the two people in the hall.
Zhou He held his breath and concentrated, lowered his head, and tried his best to invisible himself.
Su Che had a clear conscience about Empress Dowager Gao's gaze and was calm and calm.
Su Song couldn't stand it, his expression moved, and he sighed softly: "Empress, why did you get to this..."
Empress Dowager Gao decisively stopped Su Song's sensation and said coldly: "I also want to ask, why has it reached this point? Two husbands, please explain it to me?"
Seeing that Empress Dowager Gao did not blame him alone, Su Song felt relieved and continued to drive to remain silent.
Su Che raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "Empress, where did the recent chaos originate? Cai Jing is a treacherous villain. If there is the first one, there will definitely be a second one. If the official continues like this, will the empress not worry?"
The "old party" claimed to be a gentleman and classified all the "new party" of the reformists into the "villain". Cai Jing's one who was swaying left and right was even more of the villain!
Empress Dowager Gao frowned deeply as she listened to Su Che's words.
She hadn't thought so much before, and was shocked when she listened to Su Che's words.
If Zhao Xu was surrounded by villains, what would happen to the dynasty, the Song Dynasty, and the Zhao family? Treacherous and treacherous and favored treacherous and treacherous, that would be a sign of the destruction of the country!
Empress Dowager Gao's momentum suddenly changed, her expression was cold, and she shouted in a decisive tone: "Cai Jing cannot serve as a commander!"
Su Song's old face thrust, knowing that there was no room for recovery for this matter.
He no longer thought about what would happen to Zichen Palace tomorrow, but was considering how to properly deal with this matter.
It’s not nice to say that the ministers besieged the officials, not to mention that the officials always have one day to rule.
If such a thing happens, can we still expect the officials to keep aside the past and be harmonious in the future?
Su Song had countless thoughts in his heart, and finally he was a little envious of Han Zhongyan. Although he left in disgrace, he had escaped without hesitation. The future outcome of these people may not be so good.
Su Zhe raised his hand in a deep mood and said, "I respect the imperial edict."
Empress Dowager Gao didn't think there was anything to worry about tomorrow, so she waved her hand and said, "Go, what should I do, Lu Qing's family will tell you."
The two Su Qi raised their hands and said, "I will leave."
As soon as Su Song and Su Zhe left, the hall became quiet again, leaving only Empress Dowager Gao and Zhou He.
After waiting for a long time, Zhou He moved his steps, stood beside Empress Dowager Gao, and whispered: "Empress."
Empress Dowager Gao felt a little painful, and sighed softly, saying, "You said, if I do this, will there be any explanation outside?"
Empress Dowager Gao was unreasonable in many things, such as Zhao Xu was already in charge of the rule, not returning to the government, for example, not allowing Zhao Xu to touch the government, and tomorrow's court meeting was destined to be besiege Zhao Xu by all civil and military officials. Her grandmother had to help court officials, and it would not be nice to spread.
Zhou He lowered his head and said, "Empress, I don't have time to think so much now. The official still has the imperial guards."
Empress Dowager Gao's expression of sighing suddenly stopped and said, "I really need to make some arrangements."
...
Zhao Xu left Cining Hall and slowly walked towards Funing Hall.
He naturally knew what his decision would face. The reason why he was silent for so long was that he analyzed the difficulties, countermeasures, successes and failures.
I was thinking quickly just now, but I was not thorough enough. Zhao Xu was still pondering carefully now.
He has no power in the outer court. If he really wants to hold a court meeting, he will definitely be one-sided and verbally speaking. He will not be the opponent of those people.
To win, you must find another way!
At the same time, we have to deal with the subsequent endings. There are only two outcomes: the first one, he won a great victory, Empress Dowager Gao withdrew the curtain, and he took power. The second one, he was defeated, was banned, the throne was endangered, and life and death were unpredictable.
The original "reconciliation" became the current "decisive battle", which made Zhao Xu understand some things.
The conflict between him and Empress Dowager Gao, Lu Dafang and others was not about power, but was basically about philosophy. With his current personality and attitude towards government affairs, even if he wanted to keep a low profile, these people would not allow it.
Unless, he becomes their kind!
While Zhao Xu was thinking, Meiren Meng followed from behind, looked at Zhao Xu's back, chased after him for a few steps, and saluted: "I have seen the official family."
Zhao Xu was stunned, turned to look, and smiled and said, "No gift."
Meiren Meng thanked him, looked at Zhao Xu's expression without any trace and said, "Is the official thinking about a countermeasure?"
Zhao Xu was also observing her and said, "Why did you recommend Cai Jing just now? You are still taking it on yourself, so why are you not afraid of your grandmother getting angry?"
Meiren Meng is not very beautiful. From the perspective of later generations, she has a mature lady with a disagreeable age.
She was not reserved, nor did she deliberately smile with respect, nor was she so generous, but ordinary. She said, "I heard that the Empress Dowager has been in poor health recently."
Zhao Xu looked at the beauty Meng, raised his head slightly and looked at her face, with unexpected curiosity in his eyes.
She did not explain why she dared to recommend Cai Jing, nor was she worried that Empress Dowager Gao would get angry. Instead, she said, "The Empress Dowager has been in poor health recently."
The Empress Dowager naturally would not be the Empress Dowager, but the legitimate mother of the Empress Dowager Xiang and Zhao Xu.
‘Have you started?’
Zhao Xu said to himself that Empress Dowager Gao would not be ruthless about the person who wanted to harm him and also killed Gao Gongji.
But at this time, is there any meaning of warning him?
