Chapter 673: It's time to counterattack
Chapter 673: The time for counterattack to be counted
Zhao Ji said in the pavilion with an angry voice: "Come in."
Chen Ao stepped in, bowed, sat down loudly, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what happened?" He said, and he set his eyes on a memorial on the ground.
Zhao Ji pointed to the memorial on the ground and said, "You can read it yourself."
Chen Ao bent down to pick up the memorial, took a brief look, and laughed: "Your Majesty, fortunately, Eunuch Tong was pressed in time and nothing happened. Should those mutiny border troops be cleaned up?"
Zhao Ji sneered, "This is an official who is forcing the troops to rebel, it is not them who should deal with it." He held his hands and seemed very impatient: "The Cai family is so arrogant. One Cai You dares to kill the palace vanguard and the other Cai Tao dares to deduct military pay. You are right. If Tong Guan had not dealt with it in time, something big would happen." He smiled coldly and continued, "In addition, the Cai family hides the criminals. I originally thought that the Grand Master has worked hard and made great contributions and doesn't want to pursue it, but now..." His eyes swept on Shen Ao's face like a knife: "It's impossible not to deal with it."
Chen Ao said nothing, and then he persuaded him again was hypocritical, just smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
Zhao Ji sighed and said, "What should I do? I have to think about it again. Tomorrow it will be a court discussion, so let's talk about it when the court discussion."
Zhao Ji sat down and felt better, saying, "Why haven't the door been out recently? Do you, King Pingxi, also want to stay lazy?"
Chen Ao smiled bitterly and said, "I dare not stay lazy, but I have been talking too much recently and I can't disturb you. Therefore, I try to go out as little as possible."
"Going words?" Zhao Ji smiled faintly and said, "Are you talking about the consultation bureau? Don't pay attention to them. I believe in you, at least better than those seeking fame. If you want to be loyal to the king, why should you cherish your feathers? Let them criticize you."
Chen Ao nodded and thought to himself, it’s okay that you are so happy about me, but he taught me not to cherish my feathers. Isn’t this pushing people into the fire pit?
Zhao Ji took a sip of tea and became calm. He smiled a little and said, "Tomorrow, the court will discuss with you if I have something to do. I will ask you to enter the palace today. There is one thing to discuss with you."
Chen Ao said: "Please make it clear to you."
Zhao Ji's eyes flashed, as if he had made a decision, and said, "I plan to ask you to go to the school to save money, what?"
Menxiasheng is almost the center of the world. This sentence reveals two meanings: one is that Cai Jing has completely lost favor and is ready to move his position at any time. The other meaning is that he completely trusts Chen Ao, which means that he has handed over the generals and politics to Shen Ao.
Zhao Ji looked at Chen Ao and looked forward to Chen Ao's answer.
Chen Ao just said quietly, "Your Majesty smiled. As the official of the martial arts school, I am also in charge of the Honglu Temple, and I am also ranked as the sect of the prince. This is a sect that I must not go to."
Although the Menxia Sheng is the center of the world, in Shen Ao's opinion, it is almost useless. It seems to be of great weight and responsibility. His position has reached this point. If he comes in again, no one will criticize him. Even if he goes in and faces the sea's memorial every day, it would be better to kill him. Two of his responsibilities, one is the Martial Arts and the other is the Minister of the Honglu Temple. In fact, after all, they are all idle positions. You can only be responsible for the helm and let others do other things. However, the Menxia Sheng is different. The relationship is too big and you can't be lazy. This completely disobeys Chen Ao's temperament.
Besides, his power has reached a terrifying level. When he comes to the door, he will really become Cao Cao. Being Cao is not a good thing these days, and he still uses the emperor to command the princes? Don’t even think about it.
Chen Ao had no nostalgia for this hot authority. He wanted him to get up early in the morning like Cai Jing, sitting in a sedan chair to go to the palace to say a few official duties, and then save a day when he sits at the door. That's not even a thought.
Chen Ao took a deep breath and said, "Besides, I am used to being idle, so please ask Your Majesty to entrust others with me."
Zhao Ji smiled, and said nothing, just said, "It is because of you who have this mind that I feel most at ease with you." He did not force himself to be arrogant and continued, "Okay, let's go out of the palace earlier. The court will discuss tomorrow that I have something to leave to you."
Chen Aohe nodded, but there was nothing difficult to let go. He said he was just not sure who the next door order was. After thinking about it, he felt something was wrong for several people. Then he shook his head, ignored it, and went with a faint smile.
Chen Ao was actually thinking about Cai Jing's affairs. The centipede worm died without being stiff. If a person like Cai Jing was not completely defeated, he would never be able to relax. One mutiny in the border town, one hid the imperial criminal, and the other mobilized troops without authorization. Although these three crimes were enough to defeat anyone, Chen Ao did not dare to neglect at all when he saw the dawn of victory.
After five or six years of coming here, Chen Ao has already had a bit of the temperament of a superior person and a bit of maturity on his face. When he first arrived here, he always felt that the world was unreal, so he always had a bit of unrestrainedness. Until he got married and had children, he gradually became heartbroken, and he also had a little more responsibility on his body, and people became a little different.
Chen Ao beat the horse away from the palace. He was thinking about his thoughts, but he didn't expect that when he came out of the palace, many people were already watching him not far away, and then disappeared into the streets and alleys, reporting to his masters.
At the forefront of this storm, every move touches people's hearts, no one dares to neglect, and no one dares to make mistakes. A hot person like Chen Ao is of course the target of catching up, but these people are just following and bringing the news back for adults from all walks of life to think about it. Therefore, even if Chen Ao discovers it, it's no big deal.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
On the ninth day of the first month of the Zhonghe year, the Xuanhe period had passed. When the previous year was closed, Zhao Ji had already changed his reign to Zhonghe. Zhao Ji always liked to change his reign, but no one opposed this. The cause was nothing more than an earthquake in Shu County. The Imperial Heaven Supervision talked a lot, and Zhao Ji made a quick decision to change his reign to Zhonghe.
On the ninth day of the lunar month, the spring light has not yet dissipated. Although summer is about to begin, spring rain is still floating in the sky. The continuous rain has been falling from last night to early morning. It is quite a bit like I can go down as soon as I want to go down. How can you do it?
Early in the morning, the sedan chairs of each family had already set off, and the court was about to discuss. After being washed by rain, although the air was fresh, the adults sitting in the sedan chair were all thinking about their worries. The mutiny at the border and the arrest of Cai Jian until they were gone. Cai You's abscond, these incidents have sent a signal that is enough to make everyone tremble.
Chen Ao was wearing court clothes inside, a straw raincoat outside, and a straw hat on his head. He came out of the palace in the rain. Originally, Liu Sheng asked him to take a car, but Chen Ao curled his lips and said that he was riding a horse to exercise, so in the end he could only let him do it.
In fact, Chen Ao wore a straw hat and a straw raincoat, and turned over and took the horse immediately to the palace.
There were already many people coming to the gate of the palace, sitting in the sedan chair to shelter from the rain. When the crisp sound of horse hooves hitting the stone bricks came out, everyone knew that the guy was here. It was indeed a fool. Everyone was sitting in a sedan chair. It was raining on a horse. This fool was really unreasonable.
However, no one dared to say anything. Although he was heartbroken, he couldn't help but lift the curtain of the sedan chair and smiled at Chen Ao who was hitting the horse: "The prince came early."
Chen Ao sat down at the horse and said calmly, "It's not too early, it's too late, it's delayed when collecting clothes."
Those smiles were frozen for a moment. What does it have to do with collecting clothes? However, King Pingxi always likes to talk nonsense, but this guy can't afford to offend him, so he laughed, smiling a little reluctantly, but he tried his best to be both emotional and emotional.
The most attentive person was Li Bangyan. He came out of the sedan chair in the rain and saluted Chen Ao wet: "The King of Pingxi is so charming, haha, I will not be able to do it. I am old and can't ride a horse."
Chen Ao snatched his horse and ignored him. He used to deal with it. Later, he felt that this guy was boring and flattered himself. He didn't see how Chen Ao started his career. People who show off their skills were the most annoying.
Li Bangyan ate the turtle, but his face still had a sincere smile and looked unwilling to worry at all. He followed Shen Ao's horse. Although the rain was not heavy, his age was a little overwhelmed by the wind and rain, and his whole body was trembling.
Chen Ao turned over and got off the horse. Although he felt that this person was very annoying, he could not help but see him like this and said, "Mr. Li, please go back to the sedan chair and take shelter from the rain."
Li Bangyan refused and said with a smile: "Your Majesty can get wet with rain, and you can get wet with the officials."
Chen Ao ignored it anymore.
It was at this moment that the palace gate finally opened, and a eunuch came out wet and said aloud: "Sir, please come to the palace to meet you."
Everyone came out of the sedan chair, but they could not hold an umbrella. There were unwritten rules in this palace, and no one was allowed to hold an umbrella. This umbrella was similar to Yungai. When entering the palace, except for the emperor, the queen or some nobles, the rest of the people could not hold an umbrella. Otherwise, even if they were usurping the Yue Yue, the ministers would abide by this rule. No matter if you were seventy-eighty, you would have to go there obediently in the rain.
In the past, if the weather was bad and there was nothing serious, I would usually move the court to take care of everyone, but this time the palace has no plans to move, so I can only let you down.
Chen Ao looked around and saw these weak bodies trembling in the wind and rain, and laughed in his heart: You're so wet, you're so angry, I'm prepared, I'm wearing a straw hat and a straw raincoat, let's see if you dare to ride in a sedan chair next time.
With his eyes rolling, Chen Ao ran to Zhou Zheng obediently, took off the hat, put it on Zhou Zheng's head, and said with a smile: "Sir Taishan, you can take this hat with you."
Zhou Zheng was cold all over by the rain. Chen Ao was his younger generation, so he was disrespectful. He just smiled faintly at him and said, "Don't want gonorrhea, either."
Chen Ao smiled and snapped his fingers: "Come."
Several guards behind him came over, turned over and dismounted, opened a tart cloth bag, and seven or eight hats were exposed. Chen Ao took two hats by himself and put them on his head. Seeing those desolate figures, he felt even more happy. Wearing two hats made them angry.
The other hats were distributed to Quartz, Zeng Wen, Jiang Min and others. Unfortunately, another father-in-law Tang Yan was not qualified to participate in the court discussion and had no chance of filial piety.
Chen Ao's eyes flashed, holding a remaining hat in his hand, and his eyes fell on the trembling cold Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen's clothes were already soaked, and he was not young. Although he usually didn't look at him whispering, he would curse anyone he saw, but at this time he looked like a very old man, very miserable.
Chen Ao walked over and said with a smile: "If Lord Yang gets tired of his body, who will scold me in the future? Wear this hat for Lord Yang. Remember to return it to me when he leaves the palace later." Yang Zhen refused and had already put it on his head.
When the officials who were wet in the rain saw it, they were stunned and were still scolding others just now. Now it seems that it is not certain who is stunned. However, at this time, Chen Ao was not wrong to say that he was stunned. He had two hats on his head, and this look of respect was unique.
