Chapter five hundred and fifty second capital uproar [2 more]
The Emperor's thick palms rested on Gu Dayong's shoulders, and he slowly helped Gu Dayong up, comforting Gu Dayong and saying: "Why don't I believe in Daban? I firmly believe that Daban is just like me. If I don't believe in Daban,
, how could I leave such an important position as Director of Ceremonies to you, my eldest companion?"
Gu Dayong was deeply moved and said: "Your Majesty, Jiao Fang and the others are slandering. They are slandering! It must be because the old slave opposes their suggestions, so they slandered the old slave in front of His Majesty. You have to make the decision for the old slave."
!”
Seeing that Zhu Houzhao trusted him as always, Gu Dayong's worries disappeared. He looked extremely aggrieved and seized the opportunity to give eye drops to Jiao Fang and others in front of the emperor.
Zhu Houzhao patted Gu Dayong on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, my dear friend, I will send people to reprimand the elders and let them get on with things. If they cause trouble again and criticize the great friend, I will definitely punish them!"
In front of Gu Dayong, Zhu Houzhao glanced at the several chamberlains behind him, pointed at one of the chamberlains and said: "Huang Jin, go to the Supervisor of Ceremonies immediately and pass on my instructions. The cabinet from Jiao Fang on down will be punished."
After serving for half a year, if anyone criticizes the great companion again, he will be severely punished!"
Gu Dayong on the side heard the words and immediately kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao on the ground: "Old slave, thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!"
After serving the emperor, he returned to his palace to rest, and Gu Dayong withdrew from the emperor's palace.
In a dark corner, Gu Dayong was seen staring at the two chamberlains in front of him with a sinister look on his face.
These two chamberlains were both the emperor's personal chamberlains, but when they faced Gu Dayong, they all turned pale and lowered their heads, not daring to look into Gu Dayong's eyes.
At this moment, Gu Da stared at the two of them with a gloomy face and said, "You two, tell me exactly what Jiao Fang and the others said when they came to the palace to meet His Majesty today!"
There was a pop.
Just like Gu Dayong knelt down to worship the emperor, these two chamberlains also knelt down in front of Gu Dayong.
"General Manager, please spare this slave. I can't say anything!"
"Yes, Chief Manager, I can't say it. If the servants say so, I'm afraid their lives will be at risk!"
The reaction of the two chamberlains made Gu Dayong's expression change. It was almost a subconscious reaction. Gu Dayong looked towards the direction of the emperor's palace.
The hands hidden under the cuffs suddenly clenched into fists, and a stern murderous intent flashed through his eyes, but soon Gu Dayong exhaled a breath of turbidity, and his eyes slowly fell on the two chamberlains.
Gu Da could only be heard saying softly to the two chamberlains: "Can't we even tell our family?"
The two chamberlains became even more nervous when they heard Gu Dayong's soft voice. They didn't even dare to raise their heads to look at Gu Dayong's expression. They just kept kowtowing and said: "General manager, I can't tell you. I can't tell you. You don't want it."
It’s embarrassing for the slaves!”
Gu Dayong helped the two trembling chamberlains up, then helped them straighten their clothes and said, "Don't be afraid, our family also knows that sometimes we as slaves cannot disobey His Majesty's orders.
Yes, since His Majesty does not allow you to leak it, then our family will not embarrass you."
As he spoke, Gu Dayong waved his hand and said, "You go ahead and remember to serve His Majesty well. If you neglect anything, be careful that we won't spare you."
Seeing the two chamberlains crawling away, the soft color on Gu Dayong's face suddenly disappeared, and turned into a gloomy face.
Looking at the emperor's palace, Gu Dayong's heart was filled with ups and downs.
Judging from the reactions of the two chamberlains, it was obvious that Jiao Fang, Wang Shouren and the others must have said bad things about themselves when they entered the palace to meet the emperor today. In fact, this was also expected. Gu Dayong was not afraid of Wang Shouren and others complaining. What he was most concerned about was
The emperor's reaction.
The emperor's attitude towards him has not changed much, and he even sent people to reprimand Jiao Fang and others. If nothing unexpected happens, this shows that the emperor still trusts him very much.
But for some reason, Gu Dayong always had such a bad feeling in his heart.
Shaking his head, Gu Dayong murmured: "Your Majesty is generous by nature and a very affectionate person. If you really want to punish me, I am afraid that you will have already burst into thunderous wrath."
After comforting himself, Gu Dayong turned and left.
In the palace, the emperor, who had already fallen asleep, was now standing in the palace dressed in moon-white clothes. Two eunuchs tremblingly knelt down in front of the emperor.
These two chamberlains were none other than the two chamberlains who were frightened when Gu Dayong stopped him for questioning.
At this moment, the two chamberlains were even more stressed when facing the emperor than when they were facing Gu Dayong.
Zhu Houzhao was heard saying to the two chamberlains: "What did Gu Daban ask you, and how did you respond."
The two chamberlains recounted the conversation between them and Gu Dayong in detail. Even the changes in Gu Dayong's expressions were secretly watched by the two chamberlains, and they all came together now.
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and motioned for the two chamberlains to go down. One person stood there and sighed softly: "Superintendent Qin, do you think it will be detrimental to me if Gu Dayong uses him?"
In the corner, a hunched figure stood there, without a trace of movement, and it could even be said that there was no sense of existence at all.
Qin An, the number one person in the palace, a strong man who has served emperors for several generations, has practiced the Sunflower Book to the point of perfection.
Qin An has always been in charge of the imperial court, but it is very rare for him to be transferred by the emperor to protect him personally like now.
When the Governor of the Canal raised troops, it was Qin An who personally guarded Zhu Houzhao. When King Ning raised troops and the capital was under martial law, it was Qin An who was also in charge of the emperor's palace.
Now that Qin An has appeared in the emperor's palace again, if those who know about Qin An's existence learn that Qin An has appeared in the emperor's palace again, I am afraid that everyone will be shocked.
It can be said that every time Qin An appears, it means that the emperor's safety is in crisis.
But Qin An didn't react at all after hearing the emperor's words, he just stood there.
Qin An has lived for hundreds of years, served several generations of emperors, and is used to seeing all kinds of scenes. Therefore, Qin An knows that the words "accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger" are definitely not lies. He wants to stay in a place like Dauchi, which is full of crises.
The most basic thing is to live a long life, be cautious in your words and deeds, speak less and watch more.
It was precisely with these principles and his cultivation that Qin An was able to survive the death of almost everyone at his contemporaries and live to this day, still being trusted by the emperor.
The emperor naturally knew something about Qin An's temperament. When he asked Qin An, he actually didn't expect Qin An to answer him. His question was more like a sigh.
The next few days were calm. Gu Dayong, who had been suspicious for a few days, stayed in the palace for a few days. It could be said that he served the emperor every day, but he did not notice the slightest change in the emperor's attitude towards him. Gradually,
It makes me feel at ease.
On this day, Jiao Fang, the chief minister of the cabinet, was assassinated on the way to court. The originally peaceful capital and even the court suddenly stirred up a storm. Whether it was among the people or the court, it was like water droplets falling from a frying pan.
It caused an uproar among countless people.
With a bang, a tea cup was violently smashed out. In the imperial study room, Zhu Houzhao shouted angrily: "Bold, so bold. In broad daylight, the dignified chief minister of the cabinet was assassinated by a thief. This
How absurd it is, check it, check it for me, even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you have to dig out the person behind it!"
In the imperial study room, more than a dozen important officials in the court lowered their heads under the emperor's anger, with thoughts flying in their hearts.
Venting the anger in his heart, Zhu Houzhao glanced at the crowd and said: "How is Jiao Aiqing's injury? Doesn't matter, when can she go to court..."
Wang Shouren, Yang Yiqing and others looked at each other and heard Wang Shouren step forward and say: "Reporting to Your Majesty, although Mr. Jiao Ge said that he was blessed with great fortune and had a lucky escape, he was also slightly injured. In addition, he is old.
The situation is already high, and after being so frightened, my whole body collapsed, and I am afraid it will take more than half a year of rest before I can recover."
Zhu Houzhao frowned. It reassured Zhu Houzhao that Jiao Fang was fine. However, Wang Shouren said that Jiao Fang would need to recuperate for at least half a year, which made Zhu Houzhao worried.
On the one hand, Zhu Houzhao was concerned about Jiao Fang's situation. On the other hand, it was obvious that Jiao Fang would not be able to serve as director in a short period of time. However, there was no shortage of a chief minister of the cabinet in the court, so Zhu Houzhao had to arrange for someone to be the chief minister of the cabinet.
Take charge of the overall situation.
Sighing slightly, Zhu Houzhao said: "In that case, I will allow Jiao Aiqing to recuperate at home. When Jiao Aiqing recovers, she can return to the court again."
As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao said to Gu Dayong who was standing aside: "Gu Dayong, please wait a moment and go to visit Mr. Jiaoge on my behalf and tell him to live well and recuperate, and don't have to worry about matters in the court."
Gu Dayong responded quickly and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely go to visit Mr. Jiao Ge in person." Wang Shouren, Yang Yiqing and others couldn't help but frowned, but when they looked at the emperor, they closed their eyes one by one.
Mouth.
Everyone dispersed, Gu Dayong accompanied Wang Shouren, and Yang Yiqing and others came out of the imperial study. They heard Gu Dayong and Yang Yiqing saying to Wang Shouren, "Aren't you two adults going to visit Mr. Jiao Ge?"
Yang Yiqing nodded towards Gu Dayong with a bit of a smile on his face, but Wang Shouren looked calm and showed no expression.
Gu Dayong didn't care about walking with the two of them. In a place where there was no one else, Gu Dayong looked at Yang Yiqing and Wang Shouren, with a somewhat gloomy smile on his face and said: "You two, what do you think we should do?"
If we go to visit Mr. Jiao Ge, Mr. Jiao Ge will be very excited. Perhaps if Mr. Jiao Ge is so excited, he can get out of bed and walk around..."
