Chapter 6 The Emperor, the old minister wants to report if he has something to do

In the Cining Palace.

After Wu Ying left, the Empress Dowager began to ponder.

She was considering whether Zhang De poisoned the emperor had anything to do with the queen?

Or is Zhang De behind the queen?

Otherwise, why did the emperor suddenly take back the empress's power to take over the two saints' power to the dynasty after he executed Zhang De?

The Empress Dowager knew that the emperor was fascinated by the Empress Wu Ying.

For the sake of the Empress Wu Ying, the emperor has not added a single person in his harem to this day.

He also gave Wu Ying, the Empress, the two saints, the right to be in power.

Under normal circumstances, the emperor would not easily attack the Empress Wu Ying, under such circumstances.

Could it be that the emperor found something or found some clues?

A ray of light burst out from the queen mother's eyes and she immediately called out.

"Talkless."

The Queen Mother's words just finished.

"I'm here."

An old eunuch walked in quietly, lowered his head slightly to the empress dowager.

"What did Zhao Gao find out?" the empress dowager asked, looking at the old eunuch.

The old eunuch immediately bowed and said, "Return to the Empress Dowager, there has not been a problem. Zhao Gao has arrested many people, but no trace has been found."

When the empress dowager heard this, she frowned and pondered for a few seconds.

A moment later, the queen mother looked at the old eunuch again and said, "Look at the Empress for the Ai family. I'm afraid the palace is not calm these days, so I'll pay attention to the Ai family."

The old eunuch immediately nodded with understanding, "Yes, the Queen Mother."

...

The Imperial Palace.

Zhou Chen looked through some memorials that he had not handled before, and his face looked ugly.

These memorials are trivial and irrelevant trivial matters.

Zhou Chen wanted to know the most about the real situation of the Great Zhou, but no memorial was found.

Obviously.

This is the evil consequence of the two saints' arrival in the dynasty.

The important memorials before were probably sent to the Hall of Peace and Heart and handed over to the Queen who was the Two Saints to the court for review.

Zhou Chen threw these memorials aside and attracted the eunuchs beside him to prepare for the meeting immediately.

Since all the important memorials before were given to the queen for review, he could only listen to the ministers' remarks at the court meeting.

Speaking of which, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty had not been in the prefecture for a long time because he was seriously ill.

If he did not come to the court again, many people would have forgotten that he was the legitimate emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

...

As soon as the news of the emperor's arrival in the dynasty spread, it caused considerable surprise to all civil and military officials.

They all knew that the emperor was in a bad state and had not been in court for two months.

Why is the emperor suddenly coming to the court today?

Some well-informed people have learned about what happened in the palace and guessed in their hearts that the emperor's sudden arrival in the court may have something to do with what happened in the palace.

All civil and military officials gathered outside the Golden Palace.

Enter along both sides of the jade road.

After all the civil and military officials entered the Golden Palace, Zhou Chen climbed directly on the dragon platform from the jade path inside the Golden Palace and sat on the dragon throne.

"Long live the emperor."

Seeing Zhou Chen arrive, all the civil and military officials knelt down and shouted.

Zhou Chen sat on the dragon throne and looked at the civil and military officials who were bowing their heads down, and was in a state of great excitement.

"The Lords are calm."

Zhou Chen calmed down and said slowly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After obtaining Zhou Chen's permission, all the civil and military officials stood up one after another.

"Start a report if you have something to do, and leave the court if you have nothing to do."

The sharp voice of the eunuch next to him rang out.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to report."

At this moment, the Grand Master Wen Zhong immediately stood up and said.

"oh!"

"What's the matter with the Grand Master?"

Zhou Chen looked at the Grand Master Wen Zhong who stood up first in surprise.

In his memory, Tai Shi Wen Zhong was a person who collapsed in front of Mount Tai and did not change color. Why did he seem a little impatient today?

"Your Majesty, there has been a severe drought in the four continents in the north that has never been seen in a century. People are displaced, plagues are rampant, and they sell their children and daughters. It is a terrible sight."

"Especially in the four northwest prefectures, civil rebellion has occurred. The old minister asked the emperor to issue an order to provide full efforts to provide disaster relief and appease the people's hearts."

The Grand Master Wen Zhong knelt on the ground with a thud and couldn't stand up.

"What did you say?"

Zhou Chen's face changed and he stood up.

Today, the Great Zhou has already set sun and reached a precarious point. With just a little fireworks, it may be possible to spread the prairie fire, causing the entire Great Zhou to fall into a place of doom.

Now there is a civil war in the four northwest prefectures. If this is not handled in time, it may cause a prairie fire to spread and cause the entire four northern prefectures.

At that time, the situation of the emperor can be imagined.

Zhou Chen was in great thoughts in the flash of lightning.

“When did this happen?”

Zhou Chen sat down and asked with a very ugly face.

"Report to the emperor, this is the news received by the imperial court a month ago. The Empress had issued an order to provide disaster relief at that time, and ordered the local government to calm the civil unrest, and the old ministers were fully responsible for disaster relief. I believe that there will be good news in the next few days."

Before the Taishi Wen Zhong could speak, Taifu Yan Hua immediately stood up and said.

Then, the Grand Tutor Yan Hua glanced at the Grand Tutor Wen Zhongbuxian and said indifferently: "The Grand Tutor's words are a bit alarmist."

Um?

Has the order been issued to provide disaster relief?

When Zhou Chen heard this, his face looked better. He frowned and looked at the Grand Master Wen Zhong kneeling on the ground in confusion.

Since the queen has issued an order to relieve disasters and calm the civil changes, why did the Grand Tutor re-report the old things today and ask him to issue a full-time order to provide disaster relief.

Could things have changed?

"Old man Yan, don't fool the emperor. The queen issued an order to provide disaster relief, but only issued an order to provide disaster relief to a few places. Will the people in other parts of the four continents ignore the lives of the people in other parts of the north?"

"And there is not much of the disaster-breaking silver used to truly rescue the victims, so that the situation in the four northwest governments has been in ruins."

After hearing the words of the Taifu Yanhua, Wen Zhong immediately raised his head and pointed at the Taifu Yanhua and said angrily.

Then he took out a bloody memorial from his sleeve and raised it above his head.

"Your Majesty, this is the news that the old minister just received from the four northwest prefectures. The civil unrest in the four northwest prefectures did not subside, but the two prefectures fell. The lord abandoned the city and fled, and the guards died in battle."

What?

The two palaces fell?

The lord of the palace abandoned the city and fled?

The guard died in battle?

The words of the Grand Master Wen Zhong were like a bomb, exploding in the Golden Palace, causing all the civil and military officials to change their faces.

Even the Grand Tutor Yan Hua, Prime Minister Yuan Bo, and General Wu Jin were stunned when they heard the news.

Zhou Chen immediately said, "Come on."

The eunuch next to him quickly presented the bloody memorial to Zhou Chen.

Without saying a word, Zhou Chen hurriedly looked through the memorial.

The first thing I saw was the dazzling blood stains. Some of the words were covered by blood, so they were not very real.

The memorial is not many words, but the lack of content is angering.

When Zhou Chen finished reading this memorial, his face was so gloomy that it could almost drip out of water.
