Chapter 363 There will be more things that cannot be compromised.
Xie Jingmo is a very trustworthy person.
He either doesn't agree, but if he does, he won't be vague.
He presided over the affairs of the Spring Examination very carefully.
Fu Hai said to Yun Zhao in the harem, "Empress Dowager, you don't know. Right now, everyone in the court is speculating whether General Xie has ambitions for the throne. Why is he suddenly concerned about the Spring Examination? I heard that yesterday, when the candidates entered the Spring Examination hall, General Xie directly ordered his men to stand at the door with swords. When Prime Minister Yu's eldest son tried to cheat, the slip of paper was found and he was almost beaten to death on the spot! After that, no one dared to do anything tricky anymore."
Yun Zhao flipped the page of the book in his hand and curled his lips. "He always completes what he promised without compromise."
The words just fell.
Qicai hurried in and said, "Empress Dowager, the Regent is here to ask if you're feeling better. He needs to report something about General Xie's audacious behavior in the examination hall."
Fu Hai stood aside and glanced at Yun Zhao's slightly frowned brow.
Fu Hai whispered, "Queen Dowager, shall I go out and tell the Regent?"
Yun Zhao responded lightly, "Yeah."
Fu Hai went out.
The Regent frowned when he didn't see Yun Zhao.
Fu Hai said, "The Queen Mother has been ill these past few days. She said that since the Spring Examination has been handed over to General Xie, she will not interfere in the affairs of the Spring Examination, adhering to the ancient saying of "don't employ a man if you doubt him, and trust a man if you employ him." The Emperor is not feeling well, so if the Regent is free, he should visit the Emperor more often."
Mu Chengyan frowned, "Is Yun Zhao still not well? The Spring Examination is of such importance. Xie Jingmo beating up a candidate in the street has already caused a very bad impact."
Fu Hai nodded, "But the Queen Mother is indeed ill and needs to rest."
Mu Chengyan immediately said, "Then have Yun Zhao write an imperial edict, entrusting me to supervise Xie Jingmo's words and deeds in the Spring Examination. This way, I can help him. I was also the chief examiner in the Spring Examination. Now, having an additional supervisory edict wouldn't be out of place."
Fu Hai placed his hands in front of him, looked at Mu Chengyan and said, "The Queen Mother drank the medicine and has fallen asleep. I will convey your wishes later. Please ask the Regent to return today."
Mu Chengyan's eyes were gloomy. He looked towards Yun Zhao's room for a long time before he said helplessly, "Then remember to tell him that this matter is of great importance and cannot be delayed!"
Fu Hai's eyes were indifferent, "Yes."
Mu Chengyan left, and Fu Hai looked at Mu Chengyan's back with a cold expression.
When Fu Hai entered the room, Yun Zhao was indeed fast asleep. He gently closed the window and left the room.
Vice Admiral Gao walked in from outside and asked Fu Hai, "What is Mu Chengyan doing here?"
Fu Hai told the truth.
Deputy General Gao sneered, "He actually knows how to say that he supervises the imperial edict. He's trying to put himself above Xie Jingmo!"
Fu Hai nodded, a hint of worry on his face. "I see that the Regent is unlikely to give in on this matter. General Xie has been on the battlefield for many years and is not very knowledgeable about the affairs of the court. I am afraid that General Xie will not be a match for him."
Deputy General Gao's eyes were gloomy. He turned his head to look in the direction of Yun Zhao's room and whispered, "I don't know what Yun Zhao is thinking right now."
They were afraid that Yun Zhao would be unhappy in the future if they gained weight.
To put it mildly, it is really difficult to deal with Mu Chengyan's provocation!
Fu Hai looked at Deputy General Gao's troubled face and his eyes dimmed.
When Yun Zhao woke up, Fu Hai was standing by to serve him.
Yun Zhao glanced at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
Yun Zhao was born into poverty. Even though she is now the empress dowager, she still lives a simple life and doesn't need anyone to serve her.
Usually when she woke up, Fu Hai would just pour her some water. It was actually rare that he would stand by her side and hand her her coat like he did today.
"Nothing much," Fu Hai smiled. "It's just that when the Regent came today, I was a little rude. After he left, I thought about my status and felt that I was really arrogant. So I thought I should reflect on it more."
Yun Zhao smiled when he heard this, "Grand Chamberlain, do you still need to reflect on yourself?"
This was said in jest.
It’s not really Fu Hai’s fault.
Fu Hai immediately understood and chuckled, "That's right. The Queen Mother dotes on me too much, so I have to be more humble. The Regent is the one in your heart, so I have to respect him."
Yun Zhao drank water while listening to Fu Hai's words.
During this time, she took the time to look at Fu Hai, curled her lips, and did not speak for the time being.
Fu Hai was waiting on the side.
Both were very patient.
After Yun Zhao finished drinking the water, she smiled and said, "Why are you trying to be so mean to me? Just say whatever you want to say."
Fu Hai lowered his head even lower in embarrassment, "Isn't it because I'm afraid of upsetting you?"
Yun Zhao poured himself another glass of water and drank it before saying, "Go tell Deputy General Gao and the others to do what needs to be done. Don't worry about anything else."
Since she has already decided to hand over the world to Xie Jingmo, she will not give in on the issue of the Spring Examination.
In the future, there will be more things that cannot be compromised.
If she doesn't express her opinion, it will be difficult for the people under her to do their work.
Fu Hai nodded and said, "Yes."
When Fu Hai went out to look for someone, he met Mu Chengyan on the way.
He frowned when he saw Fu Hai. "Why did you come out? Don't you need to take care of Yun Zhao? Have you asked Yun Zhao about what I said before?"
Fu Hai said, “I asked.”
Mu Chengyan then immediately asked, "What do you mean?"
Fu Hai said slowly, "The Queen Mother said that the matter has been delegated. With too many people involved, it will be too chaotic. The Queen Mother also said that if the Regent has the energy, it is better to focus more on the Emperor. The Spring Examination should be left to General Xie. It is just an insignificant experience, and the Regent does not need to worry about it."
Spring Breeze Tower.
Prince Liang, "Did the Queen Mother really say that?"
Mu Chengyan's eyes were pale, "Yeah."
Prince Liang laughed triumphantly, "Then why are you still so unhappy? The Queen Mother has said so. It's just an extremely insignificant experience. What are you afraid of? The Queen Mother must have figured it out. I am the chosen one, the only choice for the future emperor!"
Prince Liang thought of Yun Zhao's beautiful face, smiled, and said slowly: "I think Yun Zhao is right. You just need to focus on the little emperor. Why do you care about a useless Xie Jingmo?"
Mu Chengyan was about to speak.
The mother from Chunfenglou came over with a smile and brought two girls who were dressed coolly.
King Liang waved his hand impatiently at Mu Chengyan and said, "Alright, just do as I say. Don't look for trouble. If you ask me, you counselors are just too suspicious and are asking for trouble."
Mu Chengyan frowned and watched King Liang enter the room with his arms around the two young girls.
Mu Chengyan's eyes were so gloomy that even the smiling madam was scared away.
He finally shook his sleeves and strode towards the examination room.
