Chapter 212: Absolute Authority in Hand (10,000 Words, Please Reward!)



They are not doing this for any particular reason, they just want to kick me out of the cabinet.

However, Xu Guangqi was very disdainful of them in his heart.

They sit in this position in the cabinet and don't think about doing anything. They think about these trivial things all day long. I am too lazy to talk to them about these things.

So Xu Guangqi stood up and said, "Okay, then it's settled."

After saying this, Xu Guangqi turned around and walked outside.

Sun Chengzong and Han Yu looked at each other. They didn't expect Xu Guangqi to agree so readily.

This surprised them a little.

At this time, Huang Kezun, who was standing next to him, also stood up, breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a seemingly joking tone: "This Xu Ge Lao is really a man of action. He is always decisive in everything he does."

After saying this, Huang Kezun also turned and left.

But it was precisely this sentence that answered the questions of Han Yu and Sun Chengzong.

The reason why Xu Guangqi agreed so readily was not only because he had a quarrel with them, but more because he really wanted to do something.

If Xu Guangqi felt that this was the right thing to do, he would do it, regardless of anything else. Whether he brought it up himself or not, Xu Guangqi would do it.

After thinking about this, Sun Chengzong and Han Yu felt a little awkward. They looked at each other, neither of them said a word, and stood up to go about their own business.

There is a lush camphor tree beside the pond in the Western Garden of the Forbidden City.

At this time, under the tree, Zhu Youxiao was lying on a chair, holding a fishing rod in his hand, letting the float drift in the pond with the wind.

He half-closed his eyes and looked at the sky comfortably, as if he was in a trance.

Next to him was a table with tea and fruit on it, and on the other side sat Queen Zhang.

At this time, Empress Zhang was not as casual as Zhu Youxiao.

Although her style was similar to Zhu Youxiao's, she sat dignified and virtuous, with the fishing rod in her hand hanging over the water, accompanying Zhu Youxiao in fishing.

Since arriving in Xiyuan, Zhu Youxiao's life has become more leisurely.

Compared to when he was in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, he felt much more relaxed, so fishing was put on Zhu Youxiao's agenda.

It turns out that changing a place can change one's mood.

"Baozhu, how about we have grilled fish today?" Zhu Youxiao glanced at Empress Zhang and asked with a smile.

Empress Zhang smiled sweetly and said, "Your Majesty, do you wish to use the fish we caught ourselves?"

After saying that, she looked at the empty fish bucket and smiled.

Zhu Youxiao didn't care at all about Empress Zhang's teasing. He simply waved his hand, sat up straight, put down his fishing rod, rubbed his hands and said, "It seems that if I don't show you my strength, you won't know what I'm capable of. Today, I'll let you see it for yourself!"

Looking at Zhu Youxiao's expression, Empress Zhang smiled even more brightly.

Zhu Youxiao waved to Chen Hong who was standing not far away and said, "Come on, let's make a nest."

"Your Majesty, what is making a nest?" Chen Hong said hesitantly.

"Okay, don't worry about it, let me do it." Zhu Youxiao became playful and started to busy himself.

Seeing Chen Hong still standing aside, Zhu Youxiao asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, it seems that several elders in the cabinet have started arguing." Chen Hong said hesitantly.

Glancing at Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao said curiously, "Oh!" and asked, "Do you know what it is?"

"I heard that it was because of the cooperation between the Imperial Household Department and businessmen. Lord Sun of the Cabinet seemed to think that this would damage the reputation of the royal family. If those businessmen committed crimes, it would damage the reputation of the royal family." Chen Hong said cautiously.

"But Lord Xu felt that since those people were capable of committing crimes, we should find a way to prevent them from doing so. We can't just throw the baby out with the bathwater. If we do that, it would be lazy governance." Chen Hong spoke carefully again, "So Lords Han and Sun asked Lord Xu to write the memorial."

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Chen Hong and waved his hand to let him leave, as if he had no reaction to these things.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao really didn't react at all.

I had expected some people to oppose me, and I had also expected the conflicts among several people in the cabinet.

Xu Guangqi was going to offend someone again in this matter. But it didn't matter. What was wrong with Xu Guangqi offending someone?

He still had to use Xu Guangqi and make use of him. No one could change this, especially after this incident.

For Zhu Youxiao, a minister like Xu Guangqi is hard to come by.

Soon Zhu Youxiao finished his work and came directly to Empress Zhang. He smiled and said, "This time I will let you see what I am capable of."

As he said this, he started fishing again.

I don’t know whether the bait Zhu Youxiao had just made was effective, or the fish heard Zhu Youxiao’s call, but they all swam over quickly.

It didn't take long for Zhu Youxiao to catch a fish, which looked quite big.

After unloading the fish and putting it into the bucket, Zhu Youxiao waved to Chen Hong who was not far away.

When he came to his side, Zhu Youxiao said, "Send this fish to Xu Guangqi's house to help him recuperate. He won't be exhausted from working so hard all day."

Chen Hong knew that the emperor still remembered what he had just said, otherwise he would not have given Xu Guangqi a reward, and it was a reward with such special significance.

This is the first fish the emperor has caught today.
