Chapter 357: Peace of Mind Festival



After comforting Su Qingyu for a while, he left the court. Li Cunxiao, who had been following him, also sighed. However, with this posture...

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

He followed the young eunuch in such a hurry, and then followed him back and forth. If there was really nothing to do, it was probably because he was bored and wanted to find something to do.

"Your Majesty, I took those two rebels for a stroll outside the city, and they said they saw the leader of the other rebel army."

"What was the leader's name? Did those two people mention it?"

"Chu Zhan."

Boom——

It felt like a bolt of lightning had struck his head and exploded into pieces. The protagonist had finally emerged. It was estimated that the group of people in the capital at this moment definitely had no good intentions.

"He really has no good intentions. He inquires about the situation inside and outside the court every day."

Following the arrest of the person who distributed flyers last time, I guess they have learned this from somewhere and are also distributing this kind of notice to spread rumors.

"Then send someone down there to post notices everywhere. If anyone catches the person who slandered my reputation, they will be rewarded!"

It was enough to provoke him again and again. The first time he didn't kill the person from the Evil House was because that person had some privileges, but this time it was different. He wished Chu Zhan would die.

The notice was distributed quite smoothly. It was simply posted everywhere, and there were soldiers guarding the area. If anyone was so foolish as to commit a crime, they would be taken to jail and interrogated for three days and three nights.

I have to say that physics is useful. Even if he is a tyrant, so what? King Zhou lived like that. So what if I indulge in the pleasures of pleasure?

Wait… stop that’s not advisable!

After a few days, the court finally became lively again, and those who needed to submit memorials came in an endless stream. It seemed that unlike before when they were only proposing peace and prosperity for the country, now they wanted to submit a lot of memorials to tire him to death.

What a coincidence! Not only will he not die from exhaustion, but with your help, he will become famous overnight. How can he be called a tyrant for working so hard on government affairs?

That would be really blind.

"Your Majesty, I remember that the Anshen Festival is just over a month away. I think we should order strict measures to be taken."

The group of ministers chatted among themselves, and finally one of them raised his hand. But before he could say anything, Zhao Xin choked him back with a direct sentence.

"Shut up and let Liu Min continue."

Liu Min bowed, a sigh on his face. "Perhaps I feel that Your Majesty has not issued such an order for a long time. It would be better to let Lord Cui do it this year."

Well, another lapdog who is on Cui Cen’s side has been called out.

Liu Min's loyalty to him is indeed not that good, but it is not too eye-catching. At least he still has 70% loyalty to him, which is good.

There isn't much ambition, and it seems to be a simple suggestion.

But he was unhappy now. Why so many people admired this old vixen? So he looked displeased and almost furious. The dragon's majesty was felt by everyone in the court.

Cui Cen snorted inwardly. Could this possibly be the reason the emperor got so angry? That was truly incompetent. It seemed the Nan family had misjudged him by handing their daughter over to him.

Why don’t you think about breaking off the engagement now?

Nan Cang, who was standing next to him, also saw Cui Cen's provocative look. He narrowed his eyes and ignored everything.

"I see that Prime Minister Cui is old, and it would be inconvenient to ask him to do something so tiring. I'm afraid he's forgetful and might have missed something."

Cui Cen's face looked a little awkward, and Nan Cang almost laughed.

It is obvious that Prime Minister Cui's professional ability is not good enough and he plans to replace him, but the emperor still disdains to use him.

"Your Majesty, I have been running this association for over ten years. Your Majesty, what are you doing—"

"Why, after more than ten years of doing this, you've developed a sense of intimacy?"

“…”

Little guy, he can't choke you today. I don't believe that such a big court can't find someone more suitable than him. Cui Cen is so anxious to get the control of this venue, and he may have to do something behind the scenes.

He had also read the original plot. Cui Cen had no good intentions from the beginning and had been pretending to be so from the beginning to the end. And the more it came to conferences like this, the more he relied on his experience in organizing them to openly insert spies.

Just thinking that every word and action of his was under his surveillance, it would be impossible to turn him into a puppet emperor and let this fox Cui manipulate him.

If the previous plot is true, Cui Cen has absolute power in the court and doesn't even give the emperor a chance to speak. Basically, they have to agree to whatever he says.

Why did you give him face?

"His Majesty--"

Zhao Xin sat there, looking around to see who was suitable for this event, but he found that there seemed to be no alternative options except Cui Cen.

But now that the words have been spoken, there's no way to take them back.

I guess Nan Cang will have to laugh at him.

The most urgent thing he did was to think of someone.

Heshen.

"I think it's better for Heshen to go on this Anshen Festival. As for Liu Min, you can help him along the way. Don't tell me you don't know how to do it after being a protocol person for so many years."

How dare I say this? If I say it, I will be in trouble. I don’t know who Heshen is to the emperor. Why is he being exposed at this time? Is he planning to replace Liu Min?

Zhao Xin's words have been made very clear. Okay, what do you mean by "difficult"? Is it because he really doesn't like you?

"Heshen, can you accept my mission?"

Heshen was not stupid either. This was a disguised way of putting himself in the spotlight, but this kind of thing often had two sides. If things got out of hand, he would just suppress the two of them.

There are both concierge and daily affairs, and both are profitable businesses.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will do my best."

Heshen really did not embarrass him, otherwise he would not have been able to continue cultivating him.

After the court session, Liu Min's face was not very good. He glared at Heshen who was standing upright from a distance. It was enough to snatch Lu Qian's job, but he also had to take his job away. It was really frustrating.

Heshen ignored it. After all, the most urgent thing was to settle the accounts. However, he didn't expect that Lu Qian was also a greedy person. He would cut down the small amounts of money, but would get scared when it came to large sums.

I immediately turned to the part about expenses.

Here comes the inspiration.

It’s not just that Lu Qian is greedy for money on food, but he is also greedy for the monthly allowance. He is using the emperor’s things. Doesn’t he think that one day it will be discovered?

But it was only during that period of time, but even so, the evidence had to be collected.

*

"Your Majesty, we've caught him."

He was resting in the Zichen Palace when a hurried eunuch led a man whose face could not be seen clearly into the palace. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a soldier from the Iron Tiger Army. He was wearing an official uniform, which made him look quite different.

"oh?"
