Chapter 644

However, when they stepped into the Spring and Autumn Palace and saw the scene of the Empress Dowager and Zhao Xu, who was about to take charge of the government yesterday, were chatting and bragging together intimately, everyone's steps could not help but stop.

"Hey, everyone is here, why are you all standing there? Come in quickly. It's a cold day. If you fall ill, it will be a big loss to the court..." Zhao Xu raised his head and saw the ministers who were stunned at the door, and greeted with a very kind smile.

There was a pleasing smile on his face, and a roar in his heart one after another. The ministers who had always been inconsistent with Zhao Xu, the young emperor, could only force themselves to smile and step into the hall, paying respects to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.

"Dears, all the time, the old man of Ai's family has been dizzy and his heart is getting heavier. Every time he goes to court, he needs to rest quietly... Since the Qing family has arrived together today, there must be something big..." The Empress Dowager, who was still smiling before, seemed a little weak and authentic at this moment.

Seeing this scene, the old and weak Empress Dowager and the young and powerful Emperor, no matter how much these important officials in the court persuaded the Empress Dowager to continue to grasp power and continue to rule from behind the curtain, they really couldn't say it.

Liu Zhi turned his head and looked at his colleagues around him. There was a hint of helplessness and a three-point contempt in his eyes. Didn’t he clamor to come over before and insist on persuading the Empress Dowager to continue to rule the country and preside over the country?

Now the Empress Dowager is here, why? Can one and two be scared in seconds?

Look at me, look at you, no one wants to be the first to be the first in front of the emperor Zhao Xu at this time. If the emperor Zhao Xu is targeted at this time, I am afraid that this official will be the last one. He can hum a song "Liangliang" and sing it forever.

"I have something important to report!" In the end, Liu Anshi, the Privy Council, known as the tiger in the palace, was known for his direct advice, and was appointed as the Privy Council, and he stood up.

"I wonder what is the matter in Liu Qing's family to report?" The Empress Dowager Gao Taotao smiled casually, but his smile seemed so meaningful. The wrinkled hand gently patted the big hand of the young emperor Zhao Xu beside him.

Zhao Xu understood the emperor's grandmother's meaning and nodded slightly to Gao Taotao. He wanted to see what kind of things could Liu Anshi, who was known as the tiger in the palace, say.

"I think, Empress Dowager, you have ruled behind the curtain for the past few years, our Song Dynasty has become increasingly prosperous, all industries have flourished, the people can live and work in peace, and the border has been peaceful. Even if the Western Xia invasion south is invaded by the Tiger Ben of the Song Dynasty, the loss of troops and generals shows that our Song Dynasty is now booming..."

"Now, in the battle between Hongdezhai, although I won the Song Dynasty, there will inevitably be a long-term conflict with Xixia. It is precisely because an old and serious ruling ruling master needs to grasp the measure. Therefore, I think that at this critical moment, you, Empress, have withdrawn the curtain so rashly, seem to be a little sloppy." Liu Anshi said loudly with a frank face.

He did not mention being a son today, but only talking about politics, as if he was a loyal minister who was loyal and devoted to the country and country of the Song Dynasty.

"Is this why you came here to see each other today?" Gao Taotao said lightly, and the pair of eyes that seemed very lazy began to become sharp again, and they swept past the group of important officials in the courtroom in front of him one by one.

"What about you? Do you have the same thoughts as Liu Qing?" Gao Taotao's eyes fell on Liu Anshi again before he spoke.

"Let's wait, I do have this idea..." Zhu Guangting gritted his teeth and stepped forward and said carefully. "It's not that I don't want Your Majesty to take power in the court. It's just that my Song Dynasty is at a critical moment when we are fighting with Xixia. At this time of crisis, you suddenly withdrew the curtain. It's really a bit..."

"The same is true for me." Since some people started, they followed the idea of ​​not ruling the public without mercy, and these ministers began to stand up one after another and expressed similar ideas and ideas.

The general idea is that although the Song Dynasty was peaceful and Xixia retreated to the territory after this great defeat. However, Xixia was ultimately the strong enemy of our Song Dynasty.

Now that the Empress Dowager of Xixia and many officials and generals have captured it, it is time to consider the next countermeasures. You, the Empress Dowager, have to leave the matter without paying attention. This is reasonable and we all expressed our opposition.

Of course, we are not opposed to Your Majesty’s rule, but we just hope that this time will be delayed a little, and it will be better to wait until the war between Xixia and our Song Dynasty is over.

"It's hard for you to think of such a reason." After everyone finished speaking, Gao Taotao said such a meaningful sentence.

But no one spoke at this time. After all, the old driver, Empress Dowager Gao Taotao, is not a blind man. As long as you use your brain, you can guess their intentions.

"Liu Zhi, where are you?"

Liu Zhi, who had not spoken, first bowed to the Empress Dowager, then replied. "Empress, I actually think so. However, if you are sure that Your Majesty has the ability to take charge of the Song Dynasty, I will naturally assist Your Majesty with all my strength and continue the constitution you have planned so that I can go to a higher level..."

"It's rare that Liu Qing is willing. It's a blessing for the Song Dynasty to have a minister like you." Gao Taotao showed a faint smile. After pondering for a while, he continued to face the more than twenty pairs of treacherous eyes.

"The Ai family has already understood what the masters are. Since that's the case, let the Ai family think about it again. Well, the Ai family is a little tired. You guys should go back soon. Don't delay the government affairs of each yamen."

Hearing that Gao Taotao had issued an order to expel guests, these ministers still had unwilling people and were about to say something. At this time, the emperor Zhao Xu had already stood up, his face was as deep as water, and his eyes fell on the officials who were eager to try.

"Your family, are you trying to get tired of my grandmother?" As soon as Zhao Xu said this, the officials who were about to speak or were about to speak subconsciously closed their mouths.

It is one thing to offend the emperor, but if the Empress Dowager gets older and becomes worse, if she really gets sick, then all her efforts to stop Zhao Xu from following the government in the court will turn into a huge joke.
