Under the hurried greeting of all the officials of the household department, Emperor Deqing strode into the hall of the household department.

When entering the household hall, Emperor Deqing's expression was full of worry and anxiety, and he called loudly: "Zhao Aiqing! What happened to Zhao Aiqing? Where is my Zhao Aiqing? ”

When he called loudly, Emperor Deqing turned his eyes, but he didn't find Zhao Junchen's figure at all, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Then, the worry and anxiety in Emperor Deqing's expression suddenly subsided by half, and he turned his head to Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen, who were kneeling on the side, and asked, "What's the matter?" What about Zhao Ge Lao? I heard that Zhao Junchen fainted in the household department, and the household officials also invited the imperial doctor from the palace, why did Zhao Junchen and the imperial doctors not see him? ”

Hong Zhengshuo hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, Elder Zhao Ge has already returned to the house, and he has just left...... After Zhao Ge Lao regained his senses, he had to leave no matter what, and Wei Chen and the others couldn't stop him. ”

After hearing Hong Zhengshuo's answer, Emperor Deqing's brows suddenly furrowed.

Emperor Deqing was suspicious by nature, and the timing of Zhao Junchen's coma was too strange, so Emperor Deqing had some doubts in his heart about the truth of Zhao Junchen's coma, and Hong Zhengshuo's answer also deepened the suspicion in Emperor Deqing's heart again.

If Zhao Junchen wakes up from a coma, he must have a drowsy brain and weak body, and it is the time when he urgently needs to rest, how can he leave immediately?

So, after Emperor Deqing heard Hong Zhengshuo's answer, not only did he not rush to the Zhao Mansion to visit immediately, but instead walked to the main seat of the main hall of the household department and sat down, and then stared down at Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen, and asked coldly: "Why did Zhao Ge Lao fall into a coma?" Why leave in a hurry? What's all going on? Tell me more about it. ”

Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen originally thought that they would not face Emperor Deqing's inquiry until tomorrow morning, so they hadn't thought of a good explanation, and after hearing Emperor Deqing's question, they were all flustered, not knowing how to explain, but they didn't answer for a long time.

Seeing the performance of Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen, Emperor Deqing frowned again, thinking that this matter might have another hidden meaning.

So, Emperor Deqing sneered: "What? Don't dare to say? It seems that this matter is not light! Since you don't dare to say it, then say it to someone else! …… All the household officials raised their heads to look at me! ”

Hearing Emperor Deqing's order, everyone in the household department looked up at Emperor Deqing in fear, and Emperor Deqing also took the opportunity to look at the appearance and temperament of all the household officials.

Then, Emperor Deqing raised his hand and pointed at it, but he chose a household head who seemed to be the most timid and honest, and said, "Why is Zhao Gechen unconscious? Why leave in a hurry? Explain it to me! To be honest, there can be no concealment, and there is no way to avoid the serious, bullying the king is a crime of killing the head! ”

Zhao Junchen's control over the household yamen was too deep in the past, and almost all the household officials were Zhao Junchen's cronies and friends, even after the large-scale purge and rectification of Emperor Deqing during this period of time, Zhao Junchen's cronies and friends still left more than forty percent.

The household official selected by Emperor Deqing is named Cai Xun, and he is also an old man under Zhao Junchen, don't look at him on the surface as a timid and honest appearance, but how many secret actions have the household department made over the years? How can an honest and timid person stay in the household department?

In fact, as the saying goes, "people can't look good", Cai Xun's honesty and timidity are just a disguise, but he is one of the most bold people among the household officials.

At this time, after hearing Emperor Deqing's inquiry, Cai Sui's body trembled, as if he would faint at any time, but he still used a trembling tone to tell Emperor Deqing in detail about the story of Zhao Junchen's coma.

From Zhao Junchen's lecture after he rushed to the household yamen, to Zhao Junchen's proposal to prepare logistics grain and grass, to Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen's mutual prevarication and dare not take responsibility, and then to Zhao Junchen was stunned by the prevarication attitude of the two household servants, and finally Zhao Junchen's strong rejection of the imperial doctor Wen Caining, but there was no omission, nor any exaggeration or evasion.

However, perhaps because he was too scared in his heart, Cai Sui said that when Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen shirked each other's responsibilities, they stumbled a little, and they repeatedly described the unbearable performance of the two household servants at that time.

After patiently listening to Cai Sui's speech, Emperor Deqing's expression was a little gloomy.

When Cai Sui spoke, no one among the household officials questioned it, so Emperor Deqing also believed Cai Sui's statement.

Zhao Junchen's coma and the reason why Zhao Junchen was in a hurry to leave the Hubu Yamen after regaining consciousness sounded very reasonable, and although the suspicion in Emperor Deqing's heart was not reduced in the slightest, he could not find any fault at all.

At the same time, Emperor Deqing's eyes when he looked at Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen were also full of gloom and anger.

Regardless of whether Zhao Junchen's coma is true or not, this incident was caused by Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen, who were naturally angered by Emperor Deqing.

What's more, Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen's performance of shirking each other and not daring to take responsibility also made Emperor Deqing extremely disappointed.

So, after thinking secretly for a while, Emperor Deqing had already made a decision in his heart.

"Hong Shilang, Ma Shilang, the two of you are the people in charge of the household department, let me tell you, is it feasible for Zhao Ge Lao to propose the three strategies for raising food? If you follow the plan, can you really let the imperial court prepare the logistics of the front-line war in the shortest possible time? ”

Emperor Deqing asked slowly with an expressionless face.

In fact, Emperor Deqing has been on the throne for many years and has dealt with countless court affairs, so he can be said to be experienced, and he already has the answer in his heart, but he just wants Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen to say the answer in person.

Seeing Emperor Deqing's unwavering inquiry, Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen became more and more frightened, but they did not dare to deceive Emperor Deqing, and after glancing at each other, Hong Zhengshuo took the lead in replying: "Zhao Gelao's three strategies for raising grain are naturally feasible, but these methods are afraid that they will attract controversy between the government and the opposition." ”

Ma Sen also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, these methods can indeed prepare enough food and grass in the shortest possible time, but there will also be many hidden dangers that have to be guarded against......

Before the two of them finished speaking, Emperor Deqing had already waved his hand and interrupted: "The most important task of the imperial court at present is to recover the Hetao, and the top priority is to prepare grain and grass logistics for the front-line war!" Compared with this matter, other hidden dangers and controversies can be put aside for the time being, and then dealt with slowly in the future!

Since the two of you think that Zhao Gelao's three strategies for raising food are effective, then the two of you will jointly prepare a script, come up with specific implementation methods, and when it comes to tomorrow's court meeting, you will submit this script to me, and I will discuss it in detail with the officials! ”

Hearing Emperor Deqing's words, Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen both turned pale.

Obviously, Emperor Deqing was angry at Zhao Junchen's affairs, even if he knew that once Zhao Junchen's three strategies for raising food were proposed, the person proposing it would offend all forces, cause a lot of controversy, and take responsibility for the black pot in the future, but Emperor Deqing still handed over this drudgery to the two of them!

This is the will of Emperor Deqing, how dare Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen question it? They all cried and mourned, and their faces trembled.

Emperor Deqing's eyes were full of indifference when he looked at them, obviously he had given up on these two household servants in his heart.

Although Hong Zhengshuo was a marginal figure of the "Imperial Party", Emperor Deqing did not hesitate when he gave up on him!

Emperor Deqing knew very well that once the news that Zhao Junchen was stunned by Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen spread, the officialdom reputation of these two people would be completely ruined!

In this case, if Emperor Deqing continued to reuse them, it would be unclear and unskilled, and Emperor Deqing was unwilling to accept this evaluation, so Hong Zhengshuo and Ma Sen could not stay in the household department.

Before driving these two household servants out of the household yamen, they first put forward the three strategies for raising food that are easy to offend people, which can be regarded as waste utilization.

However, the Hubu Yamen is already a mess at the moment, and if two more Hubu servants are lost, it will inevitably become more and more chaotic, and perhaps even the basic operation will not be maintained, and the situation in the temple will also be affected.

So, after a little consideration, Emperor Deqing said: "During this period of time, the household department has been unfavorable and chaotic, and I am deeply disappointed!" I also know that the chaos in the household department is due to the fact that there are too many new officials with little experience, but there are also some experienced old officials in the household department, and you should consult them more when you work in the future, because the chaos in the household department must not continue forever. ”

Hearing Emperor Deqing's words, all the household officials present were shocked, and their expressions were happy or worried, and their reactions were different.

The so-called "old officials of the household department" in the mouth of Emperor Deqing are undoubtedly those cronies and friends of Zhao Junchen.

Therefore, Emperor Deqing's statement is undoubtedly to return part of the authority of the household yamen to the "Zhao Party".

In order to maintain the basic operation of the household department, this is also the compromise and concession that Emperor Deqing must make.

After saying such a decision, Emperor Deqing no longer paid attention to the people of the household department, and directly got up and left the household yamen.

After leaving the Hubu Yamen, Emperor Deqing once again announced his decree to set off, but this time the destination was Zhao Junchen's mansion!

In any case, Emperor Deqing has to see Zhao Junchen's situation with his own eyes!

After writing this chapter, the bug looked at the time, and the time was only ten o'clock in the evening, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Today maybe, it seems, probably...... There can be four more, a total of more than 10,000 words!

"Explosive change" was originally just a joke, but it was not bad to realize.

Well, the third more.
