Fast Time Travel: The Posture of the Female Supporting Counterattack

Chapter 75
"I know what your majesty thinks. In times of disaster, officials are corrupt and collude with each other. They should all be punished. However, have you ever thought about it? Every official in the officialdom is like a pawn in your majesty's hands. Each pawn performs its own duties. Kill all these officials, and where will the imperial court find suitable people to take their place."

"Even if they are found, these officials are far inferior to the local officials who have been officials for many years. They don't know anything. When they do things, they either hit the east wall or the west wall."

"Disaster relief is different from other things. It is time-sensitive. Every moment of delay may cause more people to die and cause greater shock."

"In the 28th year of Dafeng and the 33rd year of Dafeng, Lord Tong and Lord Mao, who were in charge of disaster relief, both mishandled this matter, and were later used by some people to cause a tragedy greater than the disaster."

"In the 33rd year of Dafeng, the late emperor was seriously ill. The Queen Mother, who was still the imperial concubine at that time, turned the tide and ordered the corpses to be burned on the spot. The Yu Guards went out of the imperial city to maintain order in the capital, and ordered all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital and all the pharmacies in the capital. , doctor, each official had to send half of his servants and servants to give medicine, porridge, and stocked up on military rations to calm down the crisis in the capital."

"The Feather Guards going out of the city means that the guards of the imperial city are empty. How much confidence and determination does the Queen Mother have to make such a decision."

"Your Majesty has also seen that the people's expectations are not high. These people among them are not lazy. They have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and they can live with three meals."

Yu Zhishui's heartfelt words were not meant to speak for the current queen mother, but to tell the truth. There was one thing Yu Zhishui didn't dare to say, that was the queen mother back then, who was about the same age as Yan Jue now.

Yan Jue listened quietly. This is what the Empress Dowager told him when he left the palace. Everything that takes the overall situation as the most important thing and does not harm the root is beneficial to people's livelihood... People's livelihood, the people are water, the emperor is a boat, water can carry a boat, and it can also carry a boat. capsize...

The young emperor frowned, and swept away the gloom in his eyes, "Master Yu, there are four words you didn't say, settle accounts after autumn!"

Yu Zhishui watched Yan Jue leave after flicking his sleeves. He stood on the high platform and exhaled heavily. He didn't know what the consequences would be if he said those words just now. He didn't want to distort the facts unintentionally. Whether it is successful or not is left to history to judge.

Yu Zhishui only hoped that Dafeng would not become the worst in his heart.

I hope not, success is also Xiao He, failure is also Xiao He!
"Your Majesty, news from the capital has arrived." Yan Jue returned to the backyard of Daotai Mansion, and Eunuch Cai went up to greet him.

"What's going on? The news is only now." Yan Jue looked at Eunuch Cai firmly.

"The visitor put down a letter and left, and the slave doesn't know what's going on."

"It seems that the left minister and the right minister have relaxed a lot." Back in the room, Yan Jue opened the secret letter, and the more he looked at it, the more strange it became.

There was nothing wrong with the court, but the harem was turned upside down. The queen mother confined all his people in the bamboo courtyard, and ordered Master Cheng Bai of Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the violation of discipline in the harem.

More than 150 people were cleared out overnight, and more than [-] taels of property outside the palace were confiscated. No wonder the left and right ministers were cautious and did not dare to act rashly.

These palace people are really lawless, and they should be rectified.

What Yan Jue didn't understand was why the Empress Dowager thought of purging the harem only after he left the palace. Water control, this is one of them.

Second, although Yingfei's work was done very cleanly, even if the Queen Mother knew that he did it, it would be difficult to find him if it was to be investigated. The ten or so people in the courtyard stayed behind, which is really strange.

Third, the Empress Dowager has ignored the harem for many years, and this move is a big deal, which is really eye-opening. Is the Empress Dowager going to play a game of cat and mouse with him, or is it because he has done too many things during this period of time and left him behind? There are clues.

Yan Jue thought about it for a long time but couldn't find the reason, and made up his mind that since the queen mother wants to fight, let's fight. This life-and-death struggle will happen sooner or later.

……

On this day, it was raining heavily in the capital, and it was a ten-day holiday, so I could sleep in. Lan Xi was lying on the bed, sleeping on her side, and there was still a small table next to her. Listening to the crisp sound of the rain hitting the eaves of the books that hadn't been read, he slept until the afternoon.

After waking up, it was raining harder and harder outside. Mother Wen handed her a cup of hot tea, "The Queen Mother last night wrote the papers until dawn, and the slaves didn't wake the Queen Mother up."

"Well, the emperor and Yu Zhishui should return to the palace tomorrow, right?" Lan Xi asked.

This time, Yan Jue and Yu Zhishui successfully provided disaster relief. After the disaster, they oversaw the reconstruction of Jiangnan and Jiangbei for a while, and delayed their return to Beijing for half a month.

Yan Jue and Yu Zhishui were effective in disaster relief and won a good reputation among the victims. It is rare for the left and right ministers in the court to reach a consensus.

"Yes, I just reported that there was no return. According to your instructions, the bag of things found in Qifeng Palace that day was handed over to Wan Mansion. Today Wan Mansion came and left a letter."

"Where is the letter?" Lan Xi asked.

Nanny Wen handed the letter to Lan Xi, and Lan Xi opened it up, and it was exactly as she thought. The bag of red sandalwood was mixed with a kind of hallucinogenic mushroom powder. The personality changed drastically and went crazy without knowing it. Counting the days, the client started to be poisoned at least a year ago.

"Queen Mother, what should we do with those people in the Bamboo Court?" Mother Wen asked.

"Don't worry, the good show is yet to come." Lan Xi put on her coat and got out of bed, and burned the letter. Now the people who deal with the bamboo courtyard can't get any useful information. Although Yan Jue lacks experience in political struggle, It is definitely not an idiot, and it will definitely not leave a handle.

Open the window, breathe the moist air, a yellow leaf floats in, the time flies so fast, autumn is coming in a blink of an eye.

"Queen Mother, be careful of catching a cold." Nanny Wen brought a thick dress for Lan Xi to put on.

"The Queen Mother likes the maple leaves on Yunlu Mountain the most. I still remember that time, every late autumn, the Queen Mother always went to Yunlu Mountain to enjoy the beautiful maple leaves." Nurse Wen looked at the leaves in Lan Xi's hand and suddenly said.

"Yeah, how many years have passed, Yunlu Mountain, Daci Temple, I know that the chess game has not been finished yet, Master, I will go to Yunlu Mountain in a few days."

She also wants to see what a Taoist master in this world looks like, even if she is now the empress dowager, she is still like a canary, trapped in the palace all day long, with countless memorials and dead brains. Cells, a loss, really a big loss.
