When Han Zhong left the Political Affairs Hall, he already knew that Liu Zhiyuan, accompanied by several servants, went to the small hall of the Nei East Gate to meet the saint.

Generally speaking, the prime ministers and rulings of the two prefectures will not appeal to the other party. This is part of the ancestral system. Although it is not explicitly stipulated, the prime ministers will gradually become a tradition, and generally no one will violate it.

This is to prevent a certain priest from violating the collective decision of the Zhengshi Hall and submitting important national affairs to the emperor alone. This is a tacit understanding formed by the civil servants and imperial power.

Of course, in the current internal strife between the two governments, it is not too outrageous to Liu Zhiyuan's disobedience to abide by such regulations, but after all, the news was not clear, which made Han Zhong feel alert and uneasy.

Han Zhong was still surrounded by a large number of officials, like a large group of flies, buzzing and flying, which made Han Zhong feel upset.

But Han Zhong still smiled and looked at these "flies".

The power basis of the Left Prime Minister is to control the officials of the court, which in turn affects the operation of the entire court.

The most important reason why the emperor wanted to change people for a long time, but he was afraid of being afraid of weapons was that Han Zhong's advance and retreat alone affected the operation of the entire court.

There are nearly half of the Korean party officials in the court, so they can only gradually replace people. Waiting for Han Zhong to resign on his own is the safest solution.

"Did Liu Zhiyuan go alone?" Not far from the east of the Zhengshi Hall is the Privy Council. The left prime minister and Privy Councilor Zhang Guangen, who were the subordinate, "accidentally" met a place. According to the etiquette, Zhang Guangen gave in and gave in to the side, and Han Zhongyiwei passed by first. Of course, the two prime ministers had to exchange greetings on the road.

This is also the best way for Zhang Guangen and Han Zhong to meet in addition to sending people to deliver letters or writing letters.

"The wind is not right these days." Zhang Guangen raised his white eyebrows and said, "I always feel uneasy."

"If you feel this way, it means something is wrong." Han Zhong's face was calm, and there was only a nervous look deep in the corner of his eyes. He said, "Since last night, the emperor summoned several old ministers of the ranks of the ministers and then summoned his subordinates. This is pretty good. Starting this morning, Lieutenant Li Jian, and before noon, summoned Shi Yuji, the ward of the Jinwu Guard, Chen Changde, Zuo Lang and Youlang, all of them were ordered to enter the palace. Liu Zhiyuan asked to go alone, and the emperor immediately came to the inner east gate to meet. Do you know who led Liu Zhiyuan into the palace?"

"who?"

"Qimen Order Xu Ziwei."

"It's true that's wrong..." Zhang Guangen said: "It's really a sharpening of our swords and we're going to kill us? Li Enmao came to our mansion last night and said that the Northern Expedition was at this point. Will there be any accidents? I even scolded him..."

"The Deputy Privy Councilor Chen Yan has already summoned the commanders of each cabin with the talisman." Han Zhong closed his eyes and opened it again, saying, "It is said that he wants to discuss and discuss the dispatch of troops from the imperial guards in the Northern Expedition of the Beijing Camp. The commanders of each cabin and the commanders of the military were ordered to go to the Weiwei Office. This is just the matter."

Zhang Guangen's eyes showed murderous aura, but soon closed his eyes dejectedly.

If the emperor obviously intervenes, the power balance between the two sides will undergo subversive changes. For ministers, there is really no good way to do so except wait for death.

"I really don't believe it..." Han Zhong finally showed a look of pain. He said: "I have been a home for the court for ten years. I have missed a lot, but how can I get to where I am today?"

Zhang Guangen said: "Why not submit a memorial to agree with the Northern Expedition to break this situation?"

"It's not just the Northern Expedition now." Han Zhong said: "This time Liu Zhiyuan asked for a request to be the only one. I'm afraid there is something else. Unfortunately, the inner east gate is locked and there is no news at all."

"I'm afraid it's too late to spread."

"I can only wait for news." Han Zhong said: "I don't believe that the emperor can cause civil strife in the capital and get blood flowing in Yanjing?"

If Liu Zhiyuan had any measures, Zhang Guangen and his generals under his command would be able to stand on Han Zhong's side with confidence. If the emperor also attacked Liu Zhiyuan, Zhang Guangen would be very frustrated when he thought about it.

He immediately hugged his fist and Zhang Guangen said, "If my husband is unpredictable, I can only go to the underworld with me. Let's talk about it on the way then."

There is no shortage of pessimism and disappointment in the words, but it is also a fact. If Han Zhong is really solved by mutiny, the Chinese and Korean officials of the Six Tribes will not know how many people will die. Zhang Guangen, who is a friend of Han Zhong, is also a de facto political alliance. Of course, he must die at that time, and there is no possibility of being pardoned.

Zhang Guangen himself was also very confused. Mutinies caused by the political tide are often difficult to control, and it is likely that they will be burned to death. It is not surprising that the whole family was killed. For the sake of the present, he could only send a few young grandsons out quickly and put them at the homes of relatives who were far away. This would prevent them from being slaughtered and the family's bloodlines.

When Zhang Guangen got into the sedan chair, he still sighed that the Wei Dynasty had never happened for more than 200 years. Is this really the country about to be destroyed?

Han Zhong's face was as deep as water. When he sat in the sedan chair and returned home, the sky was still bright. He suddenly saw new buds rising from a willow tree on the side of the road. It was tender green, a little bit, but it gave people the feeling that the spring was not far away.

In the past, how could the prime minister, who was in a high position, pay attention to such inconspicuous trivial matters? Willow branches sprout and tender green leaves grow, and then the wind warms up. It seems that overnight, the capital is full of new green everywhere, and the spring of the year is coming again.

In previous years, Han Zhong would take his two sons, grandsons and granddaughters out of the city for a trip. Usually, he would go to the west mountain. Hundreds would go from the vast crowd to the west mountain, enjoying the green all over the mountains. In the warm spring breeze, he would use the curtain to block out a large area, and then return to the capital after a picnic.

Most of the time, Han Zhong would watch hunting dogs, that is, he would catch some pheasants and rabbits. The western mountain was close to the capital. There were several villages that were hunters, and they would often sell wild animals in the city. There were not many prey left in the mountains, and many servants from the prime minister's mansion. Yuan Sui had been struggling for a long time, which was a pitiful harvest.

It's just to make Han Zhong smile.

But at this moment, Han Zhong suddenly remembered Li Si's words, and wanted to take the hunting dogs out of the east gate to the west gate with his children and grandchildren to hunt again. Is it better to have it?

A profound sense of sadness and powerlessness surged into the heart of the prime minister who had been upholding the national affairs for ten years.

Han Zhong's personality is called strong and resolute. Faced with the oppression of the emperor and Liu Zhiyuan's advance for many years, he resigned from his post because he had no choice but to do anything.

There are also suspicion and extremeness in his personality, narrow-mindedness, and his personal ethics are not very good. Under his control, the official style and administration of the Great Wei Dynasty were extremely corrupt. The acceptance of bribes has changed from a niche to an acceptable behavior for everyone. Han Zhong himself was inappropriate, which led to the corruption of the administration, and he had the responsibility to be unable to shirk it.

Moreover, Han Zhong was conservative in his rule and lacked the spirit of enterprising and innovation. If he had been 50 years ago, he would have been the prime minister who was peaceful and stable. When Donghu continued to enter the country and the Great Wei was in a turmoil, Han Zhong, the prime minister, was of course an unqualified mediocre minister.

His appointment of private individuals is more selfish than public opinion. He was disagreeable to famous scholars like Wu Shizhong and was expelled from the capital. Some other officials who had ethics but did not associate themselves with Han Zhong were mostly demoted and expelled from the capital.

Party struggles were not Han Zhong’s invention, but party struggles began with the country’s destruction of state affairs.

At this moment, Han Zhong certainly would not reflect on his mistakes, but he was unwilling to accept it and felt an unspeakable depression and resentment. The Yuan Sui and his followers seemed to feel that Han Zhong was in a bad mood in the sedan chair. The sedan chair quickly left the imperial city and turned to the prime minister's mansion on the east side.

Before Han Zhong's mansion, there were still large-scale officials entering Han Zhong's mansion continuously, but the officials in the capital were obviously low-level officials under the red robe. Only officials from outside should not receive the news, and they still entered and exited the second power center outside the Great Wei Palace City.

Among the crowd, Xu Zixian, wearing a purple robe, was quite conspicuous.

Xu Zixian has officially inherited the title. Even if he has not inherited the title, he is also a third-rank General Zhaowu. He was given a goldfish bag. However, his official position and honor are not matched. He is considered a low-ranking rank. It is quite rare among officials and is very normal among royal families.

When he comes to do things, Xu Zixian mostly wears red official robes. His fifth-rank official position is just right for wearing red. Xiao Kehua's red official robes are cut very well, with a shortened hem and a smaller cuff, so it looks much more neat and close than ordinary military officer robes.

When he came today, Xu Zixian changed into a purple robe, which was also very tailored. With his tall figure, he was not handsome but also quite outstanding in appearance, and his long-standing temperament attracted widespread attention and attention after appearing in the crowd.

Soon, Xu Zixian's identity was also known to everyone. Of course, he was invited into the inner flower hall of the Han Mansion to wait for Han Zhong's summoning.

When ordinary royal families enter Beijing to inherit titles, some people will visit the prime minister and then leave Beijing. Most people will leave Beijing and return to their residence. Most of the royal families who visit the prime minister are royal families with official positions. For example, Xu Zixian, although many people who know the inside story are surprised, after all, because of the matter between Lin Douyao and Han Bingzhong, the relationship between the left prime minister and Xu Zixian is quite stiff. Xu Zixian has the right prime minister support, so it seems that there is no need to go to the left prime minister's mansion to bow down to seek forgiveness.

"Xu Zixian?" Han Zhong had just sat down. He was upset and was still waiting for news from Xiaodongmen. After getting the guest list, he originally said that one of them was missing, but the first one was when he saw Xu Zixian's name and was slightly surprised.

"Have he said anything?" Han Zhong said: "Did you say what it is to come to see me?"

"I said it." The man from the Han Mansion said, "It was said that it was a matter involving the East Gate inside. When I asked what happened, he refused to continue..."

"Nei East Gate?" Han Zhong almost stood up, calmed for a moment, and said, "Please come to meet him in the inner study room."

While waiting for Xu Zixian, Han Zhong almost restless... He is also an extremely smart person. He thinks a lot of thoughts for a while, but he always can't figure it out.

Han Zhong is not as good as Fang Shaoqun and Xu Zixian, both of them are extremely smart. With the old fox Wang Zhi, the three of them can communicate information in an instant and sort out the mess. Of course, Han Zhong's news channels are also very powerful, but they are not as good as Fang Shaoqun, an aide to Liu Zhiyuan, and can get in touch with the deepest secrets of the Dasan Mansion.

Maybe Liu Zhiyuan could not imagine that the most capable aide around him was to expose his plan as soon as possible.
