Swish!
When Su Xiuxiu heard this, she blushed from her face to the root of her neck in an instant, and muttered: "Oh, dare to love is the son born to you and Wang Meifang!" โ
"Or else?"
"I ......" Su Xiuxiu had an idea, and said: "Ruolan is happy, I thought you would pass on your son-in-law to your brother, I don't think it's very suitable." โ
Cui Geng did not doubt him, and said: "Ruolan finally got pregnant, she is reluctant." โ
Erlang is really an official, the bigger it is, the easier it is to deceive.
Looking at Cui Geng's apologetic face, Su Xiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little inexplicably lost.

In the following days, Cui Geng completely entered a state of vacation.
It turned out that his duties were Jing Zhaoyin, the water and land transfer envoy, and the three products under the Zhongshu Gate, because the number of prime ministers in the dynasty exceeded the standard and he and other prime ministers did not deal with it very much, so Cui Geng has always been in charge of the daily work of Jing Zhaoyin and water and land transport envoys, and he has not been very involved in the affairs of the prime ministers.
Now, as soon as these two functions are gone, Cui Geng no longer has any specific work in charge. Theoretically, he only needs to attend the court meeting normally and be a mascot.
Cui Erlang has his own arrogance, so he simply went directly to the table to ask for illness, and did not even participate in the court meeting, and went around Cui Mansion, Princess Pingyang Mansion and Princess Anle Mansion every day, enjoying the joy of family, and even gave himself the nickname "Cui Erlang who was ordered to accompany his wife".
Seeing him put on this posture, the various forces in the court gradually relaxed and set their sights on the new enemy.
Three months later, in the Xuanzheng Hall of Daming Palace, a Shuo Ri Dynasty meeting was being held.
There are three types of pilgrimage in the Tang Dynasty.
The first is the Great Dynasty Gathering held on the first day and the winter solstice. The court meeting is the most grand, "the exhibition palace is hung and preached, and Chen Che is in the middle of the road." When the time comes, the emperor will "serve the crown, the imperial public opinion will come out, the canopy will be straightened, and the guards will be as usual", and accept the courtiers and guest envoys to congratulate them. The participants of this kind of court meeting include the princes and relatives, the civil and military officials above the ninth rank in Beijing, and the local envoys, the descendants of the Zhou Sui Dynasty, the ministers of the Ministry of Jiegong, and the guest envoys of the Fan State...... And so on, the most grand.
The second type is the synodic pilgrimage. That is, the first and fifteenth day of the month. On that day, the temple will set up a coffin, a mat, a smoker, an incense case and other things, and display the honor guard at all times. Under the leadership of the supervising imperial history, the ministers were seated in the palace according to their ranks, the emperor was on the throne, and the officials sang and praised the ceremony and bowed again.
The last one is Changshen, "Fan Jingsi civil and military ministry nine products have been on the top, every Shuo, look at the court; The five products have been enshrined in the official, the member of the foreign lang, the superintendent of the imperial history, the doctor of Taichang, and the daily pilgrimage".
The so-called daily pilgrimage is a regular visit, generally no need to set up a guard of honor, and there is no need for pomp, it is a real administrative day. Those who are eligible to participate are called permanent counselors, and the number is small but the rank is high, and they are all important in the ministry of five grades or above.
In general, both the Great Pilgrimage and the Synodic Pilgrimage were ceremonial in nature, and many officials participated. Only when the officials who regularly participate in the DPRK meeting and participate in it are few and fine, can they really handle government affairs.
However, today, as soon as everyone arrived at the Xuanzheng Palace, they realized that something was wrong, facing south and facing north, and there were not one but two people sitting in the center, the one on the left was Li Xian, the son of heaven, and the one on the right was Queen Wei Xiang'er.
What's going on? The queen is the master of the harem, how can she appear here?
For a while, the ministers exchanged heads and whispered to each other.
As the head of the hundred officials, Zhang Khan quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Dare to ask Your Majesty, why did the queen appear here?" โ
Li Xiandao: "I have often felt low on energy these days, so I ask the queen to come to the court and work with me to consult on state affairs. โ
Zhang Khan Zhidao: "Your Majesty's energy is not good, and your own ministers share your Majesty's worries, and the queen is in the court, which is really inappropriate!" โ
"What's wrong?" Li Xian said disapprenously: "Have you forgotten that when the first emperor was in the court, there were two saints?" โ
Zhang Cambodia said loudly: "Of course the minister knows about this, and the minister knows even more about how the Queen Mother became the Emperor of the Great Sage!" โ
The last sentence is really sonorous and powerful!
However, as soon as the words came out, Zhang Cambodia felt that something was wrong, and it seemed that he was ...... I've said something similar before!
Sure enough, Li Xian said: "It's true that the Queen Mother has become the Emperor of Zetian, but that's because I am young and ignorant, and now she hasn't returned the throne to me again?" โ
"I ......"
Zhang Cambodia remembered that the last time Empress Wei hung the curtain, he said something similar.
At that time, I didn't argue clearly, and in the end, Cui Geng survived the mud, so what about this time?
He rolled his eyes and said in another way: "A few months ago, the queen once lowered the curtain to listen to Cui Xiang's case. At that time, she promised not to make an example. Now, the queen is hanging the curtain again, isn't it untrustworthy? โ
Li Xian shrugged his shoulders and said, "Now the queen is not listening to the government!" โ
He deliberately accentuated the word "hanging curtain", which was very shameless, indeed, Empress Wei appeared directly in front of the ministers, without a curtain to cover it. However, the focus of the initial negotiations was clearly on "listening to the government".
Old man Zhang's liver trembled, took a deep breath, and said: "All in all, the matter of the queen's curtain is absolutely impossible, and I ask Your Majesty to take back your order." โ
"Oh?" Li Xianyin said: "So...... Is my will not good? โ
Zhang Cambodia did not back down, and said: "The emperor's will is also divided into holy orders and chaotic orders, if it is chaotic, the minister would rather die than obey!" โ
"Zhang Xiang......" Empress Wei lightly opened her lips and said pitifully: "This palace participates in the court meeting for His Majesty's worries, I don't express any opinions, just listen, isn't it okay?" โ
Zhang Cambodia would be deceived by his little trick, shook his head and said, "No! The stakes are high, so we should prevent them from getting worse! โ
"It seems that Zhang Xiang doesn't give any face to the palace and His Majesty."
"It's not that you don't give face to Your Majesty and the Queen, but this matter is a matter of the country, and there is no room for negotiation. also asked the queen to return to the palace and focus on the affairs of the harem. โ
"Please also ask the queen to return to the palace and focus on the affairs of the harem!"
"Please also ask the queen to return to the palace and focus on the affairs of the harem!"

The ministers hulala knelt down in a large area, only Liang Wang Wu Sansi, and the people of the Prime Minister Wei Juyuan's family were still standing there...... Well, that doesn't seem to be very accurate.
There was one exception, who was neither loyal to Wu Sansi nor Wei Juyuan, but he walked a few steps and came to the front of the courtiers.
The person is none other than the general of the feathered forest, Huno Li.
At the beginning, he colluded with Zhang Changzong's brothers and almost made the Shenlong coup fall short, but thanks to Cui Gengqi's high move, he controlled people, so that he had to defect to Li Xian's side.
After the success of the Shenlong coup, Huno Ri was also one of the heroes and continued to be the general of Yulin.
Now, he shouted violently: "Do you want to gather a crowd to force the palace? You know, I know you, but my brothers don't know you! Come! โ
"In!"
A group of Yulin troops lined up outside the hall, looking at their faces, they were all clansmen.
One by one, their bows were unsheathed, eager to try. Look at it like that, just wait for Li Xian's order, and he will wash the Xuanzheng Palace in blood!
Zhang Cambodia's heart flipped over, it's over!
Today is the Shuo Ri Dynasty, and the people in charge of the Yulin army of the Qingliu faction are all in the palace. If Li Xian is going on a killing spree, everyone will be powerless to fight back.
Li Xian took the opportunity to say: "I am not an unreasonable person, if you agree to the queen to hang the curtain, I can not blame the past." โ
"Your Majesty thinks Weichen is too small!" Zhang Khan Yi gritted his teeth, kowtowed a few times, and said, "The old minister has lived for more than eighty years, and he has already lived enough." If Your Majesty insists on letting the queen hang the curtain, please cut off Weichen's head! โ
"You ......" Li Xian looked at the others, took a deep breath, and said, "Zhang Xiang is old and confused, and I don't have the same knowledge as him." What about you? Would you like the queen to listen to the government? โ
Yuan Shuji said firmly: "Although Weichen's age is not as big as Zhang Xiang, his brain is not very clear. Please also ask the queen to return to the palace and stop interfering in political affairs! โ
Jinghui also said: "Loyal ministers are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of death and are not loyal ministers!" The minister died today to advise His Majesty and take back his life! โ
"Please also ask Your Majesty to take back your order!" The kneeling courtiers shouted in unison.
โฆโฆ
Things have developed to the present, and Li Xian is also a little dumbfounded.
There are so many people, he can't kill them all, right?
If you do this, you will not only be labeled as a dumb king. The most important thing is that after these people died, a huge power vacuum was formed, and the Tang Dynasty could not function!
What does it mean that the law does not hold the public accountable? This is called not being held accountable!
But what about compromises? No need to ask, the emperor himself will be swept away.
What can I do?
"You...... You ......" Li Xian was speechless for a while, not knowing what to do.
Wu Sansi rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not." โ
"King Liang has something to say, please speak."
"Today's affairs, Your Majesty and the courtiers have their own opinions, it is difficult to decide, and if one is not handled well, it will be a turbulent situation in the court. As...... Looking for someone to talk to? โ
"Looking for someone? Who to look for? Who is worthy to be the intermediary between me and my ministers? โ
"Zhongshu Sect under the three products Cui Geng!"
