Looking at the decoction handed over by Chen Changhe, Zhao Yongcheng closed his eyes and shook his head slightly.
"Let it go first!"
"yes!"
"Tell the person who informed the editor and supervisor to investigate the person behind the scenes!"
"yes!"
The imperial censor who was reported was only withdrawn to test the rumors, and his treatment did not solve the root problem.
Those who are encouraging behind the scenes are the ones who really need to be beaten.
Once the capital is moved, the imperial court will lose its righteousness, its authority will decline, and it will be controlled by the local government.
Once the authority of the emperor was completely eliminated, the gentry could act recklessly and even wantonly.
"Also, send some more people to Jiangnan to replace the original batch!"
The palace sent eunuchs to various places to supervise the army and supervise taxation. Of course, some were also responsible for collecting intelligence.
Replacing these people would also be a major change for the eunuch system, which made Chen Changhe stunned for a moment.
"yes!"
"Okay, let's make arrangements!"
"yes!"
After arranging these things, Zhao Yongcheng breathed a sigh of relief and thought about taking a rest.
He can only take care of the things in front of him. He may die at any time, and his children and grandchildren must take care of them.
Closing his eyes, what came to Zhao Yongcheng's mind was his confused life.
The country inherited from the late emperor has been riddled with holes for more than twenty years. Now the country is even more unstable and the world is uneasy.
Whenever he thinks of these things, Zhao Yongcheng feels like a loser, a complete loser.
"Report to the Emperor that Concubine Duan is outside asking for an audience!"
After finally resting for a while, he was interrupted again at this time, and the emperor was naturally not in a good mood.
But the person who came was Concubine Duan, so he couldn't feel too much resentment.
"Let her in!"
After a sound of footsteps, Concubine Duan appeared in the hall.
Before Concubine Duan could speak, Zhao Yongcheng asked, "How are you reciting the Buddhist scriptures?"
The emperor had previously said that after his death, Concubine Duan would become a monk to guard his funeral, so as to protect her.
At this time, asking how the Buddhist scriptures were recited was to remind Concubine Duan not to forget to promise herself.
But what Concubine Duan wants to say today is exactly contrary to the emperor's thoughts.
Concubine Duan did agree to the emperor's proposal, but now the situation has changed. Even if it goes against the emperor's wishes, she still wants to fight for the benefits of her son.
Walking closer, Concubine Duan glanced at the medicine bowl placed next to her, then glared at the eunuchs serving around her and scolded: "You bastards, why don't you wait for the emperor to take medicine?"
Hearing this, all the eunuchs lowered their heads. No one dared to talk back to Concubine Duan at this time.
Seeing that Concubine Duan didn't reply, Zhao Yongcheng was unhappy, but he couldn't say too many serious words, so he had to turn around and face the inside of the couch.
Seeing the emperor acting like this, Concubine Duan knew something in her heart, and then continued to say angrily: "All the clumsy servants should be beaten to death with a cane!"
After saying this, Concubine Duan sat directly beside the couch, and then carefully picked up the medicine bowl.
"Your Majesty, you must take medicine when you need it. I am here to feed you!"
Zhao Yongcheng didn't say anything. He was wondering why Concubine Duan was here.
"Your Majesty, if you don't drink, how can I feel at ease?"
After three persuasion and two persuasion, Concubine Duan finally persuaded Zhao Yongcheng to come over and fed him the medicine one by one with a small spoon.
After being served by Concubine Duan to drink the medicine, Zhao Yongcheng asked calmly: "Tell me, after reading Buddhist scriptures for so long, why are you still so angry?"
"Your Majesty, you still don't know what my concubine's temperament is?"
"Of course I know, but now that I am older, I should restrain my temper to avoid being laughed at!"
"How dare anyone laugh at my concubine when the emperor is here!"
"But one day I will let go!"
The two quarreled with each other, but in the end they were speechless.
There was silence in the monastery for a long time before Zhao Yongcheng said: "Miaoyin, the arrangement I gave you is the best place to belong. Why are you disobedient!"
At the end of the story, Zhao Yongcheng even slapped the bed with his hands, obviously having a mixture of love and hate for Concubine Duan.
Concubine Duan quickly put down the medicine bowl, stroked Zhao Yongcheng's chest, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, please do not hurt yourself!"
"I am here to report something to the Emperor!"
After a while, the emperor gradually regained his composure, closed his eyes and asked, "Say it!"
"Please, Your Majesty, please let all these slaves and maids withdraw. I will report to the Emperor alone!"
The emperor did not express his position, and the monastery was quiet for a while before he heard the emperor say in a cold voice: "Did you hear everything?"
"yes!"
So the dozens of palace ladies and eunuchs serving in the palace all exited the hall at this moment.
The emperor still closed his eyes, waiting for Concubine Duan to speak.
After picking up the medicine bowl again, Concubine Duan said: "Your Majesty, the people I sent to Longyou are back!"
This sentence alone made the emperor open his eyes.
But he didn't ask any more questions, and the light in his eyes slowly disappeared, waiting for Concubine Duan to continue.
"Xun'er, you're still alive!"
Zhao Yongcheng's heart, which had just calmed down, was immediately aroused, and he even sat up with support.
"What did you say?"
With tears welling up in her eyes, Concubine Duan held back her tears and said, "Xun'er is still alive!"
When the news was confirmed, Zhao Yongcheng was happy at first, and then felt mixed emotions.
"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!"
After just saying this, the emperor had nothing else to say. Concubine Duan had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, since Xun'er is still alive, I would like to ask if you can send someone to take him back..."
"Respect our ancestral system of the Jin Dynasty. After the father dies, the son will succeed..."
It has to be said that Concubine Duan's words have gone too far.
The emperor himself was still alive, so he directly talked about the matter of father's death and son's succession. In order for his son to come back and become the crown prince, Concubine Duan had already ignored it.
But the emperor had no intention of pursuing it, but sighed and said: "It's too late, everything is too late!"
"Dajin Jiangshan is not a child's play, I am a father, and even more so an emperor!"
Concubine Duan's words were very straightforward, but she didn't expect the emperor to be even more straightforward.
The power has been given out, and almost the entire country has been handed over. How can we overthrow all the previous arrangements just because of a son?
If this were to be done, not to mention whether Zhao Yanxun would be able to sit firmly after ascending to the throne, the court might be in chaos if the crown prince was changed at this time.
Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles, so how can we do such an unwise thing?
Zhao Yongcheng has not yet reached this point. Sons and women are not the most important, the country, the country, and the country are the first.
"emperor……"
"Stop talking!"
For a moment, the hall fell into silence again, with only the sound of the copper pot dripping.
"I can send someone to bring Xun'er back!"
Concubine Duan put down the medicine bowl, stood up from the couch, bowed and said: "Since the emperor has made up his mind, there is no need to bring Xun'er back. He is living a good life in Longyou. It may not be a blessing to bring him back now!"
"
"The emperor will pretend that he has never heard of today's events and today's words, and I have never said anything about them!"
"Let him become a vassal king. At least he will be rich and noble for a lifetime without being killed!"
"I will also respect the emperor's will and become a concubine, so I won't cause any trouble to the emperor!"
After Concubine Duan finished speaking, she knelt down on the ground and waited for the emperor's oracle.
"It's very good that you think so, very good!"
"Go back, Xun'er will be rich and prosperous for the rest of his life, and you will be safe and sound!"
"yes!"
After kowtowing to the emperor again, Concubine Duan slowly exited the hall, only to hear a long sigh coming from behind her.
But at this moment, Concubine Duan did not throw away all the thoughts in her heart as the emperor thought.
"My son has strong soldiers and horses, but the outcome is yet to be determined!"
