Chapter 381 Simple Minister Zhao

Zhao Zheng was soon called to the imperial study room. Wang Ban at the door motioned for him to go in directly without having to go through the door, which just saved him the effort of bending down.

"I am here to see you, Your Majesty and Your Highness."

Zhao Zheng, who had just been summoned from the Ministry of Industry, still had various gray spots on his body, but obviously no one cared about it at this time. The emperor and the prince were worried about the disaster, and he was even running around among several vests for this reason.

"..."

"My dear sir, none of the loyal officials in the court have the ability to match them. Those who have ability, we are afraid that they will not be able to do things well. No matter who cares most about the people, no one will be around Zhao Mansion officials."

"So in order to assist King Zhou in supervising the disaster relief, Aiqing, would you like to gather the tribesmen around Nanhu and have a few of our capable patrols go to assist?"

Emperor Zhu Chongba and Prince Zhu Biao went straight to the point and explained to Zhao Zheng the disaster that had occurred in the three provinces of Nanhe.

Zhao Zheng had expected this scene on the way here, but unfortunately this time, he did not intend to betray a few of his patrol vests.

He was going to give them a gift.

"I am scared, thank you Your Majesty and Your Highness for your trust!"

"but……"

"What's the matter? If there is any difficulty, I'll just say it's okay!"

When Emperor Zhu Chongba heard this, although he said it was nothing, his brows furrowed.

Why is this Zhao Zheng disobedient again?

Is he tired?

Have mercy?

That's right, both the left and right are members of his own clan. Although they have different opinions, they are still related by blood.

Prince Zhu Biao did not speak at the side. He just looked at Zhao Zheng quietly.

Unlike his father, Emperor Zhu Chongba, he had no doubts about Zhao Zheng. He believed that Zhao Zheng would definitely agree to send men, even though Zhao Zheng might have guessed his and his father's plans.

He was just curious. He had been aroused since Yang Qi's piece of jade was delivered to him, and he could no longer stop being curious.

Why can there be such a group of upright and patriotic people like Zhao Mansion in the world?

Even intra-clan party struggles are fought through talent.

He also put his anti-imperialist intentions directly on the surface.

If it weren't for their lack of rebellion and the ability of Mozi Shennong, they would have been gone long ago.

Inexplicably, he remembered the three ringings he received when he was in Bowang Forest outside the city.

Prince Zhu Biao became the only distracted person in the imperial study room.

"Your Majesty, I don't have any excuses! I just think that the tribesmen outside have their own tasks and are far away from the capital, so it is better to choose from the tribesmen in the capital. The disaster is urgent and there is no room for delay."

But afterwards, Zhao Zheng presented the great gift he had prepared for Emperor Zhu Chongba and Prince Zhu Biao.

"My dear!"

Even if Emperor Zhu Chongba had other thoughts in his heart, he pretended to be extremely moved at this time, stood up, and walked in front of Zhao Zheng.

"We have to love you and have the Zhao family to help you. It is truly a blessing in three lifetimes!"

"My beloved, please don't refuse. Tomorrow we will personally escort the eight talents of the Zhao family to the city gate!"

boom!

"The humble ministers are terrified! The Zhao family is terrified!"

Zhao Zheng naturally had to do enough of what he was supposed to do, and since both parties were acting, whoever got the higher score would depend on who had put in more effort.

In this regard, Zhao Zheng is extremely confident.

"How can Wei Chen delay His Majesty? Wei Chen will return home immediately and set off today! Wei Chen will order the tribe to complete the disaster relief mission! If you slack off, you will be punished by death!"

"Hey! My dear! Disasters are destined by God. When people are tired, how can they talk about capital crimes so easily?"

Zhao Mansion's Zhongliang has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the capital, and Emperor Zhu Chongba has long been ruined.

But Zhao Zheng could just casually say that the Zhao family would die, but he really didn't dare to accept it.

Everyone in the Sun and Moon Dynasty can do this, but not the Zhao family.

"Everyone in the Aiqing tribe is a talented person in governing the country. They must return to Beijing intact for us. Otherwise, if they ruin our mood for traveling, we will be angry."

How much truth is always revealed in the jokes.

Emperor Zhu Chongba was doing such a thing at this moment.

Zhao Zheng naturally agreed.

Isn't it just to go home completely? It's such a simple thing.

It's impossible for someone to really seek death on their own, right?

……

"Biao'er, what do you think? We asked his tribesmen outside to go to the rescue, but he insisted on choosing from within his family, and said that if there was any trouble, he would be punished with death."

"Aren't the tribesmen outside his group enemies? Could it be that the intelligence is wrong?"

"Erhu?"

boom!

"The general is guilty! Go and investigate now!"

The innocent Erhu was at gunpoint again. It was clear that everything related to Zhao Zheng, the vest, was handled by the father and son.

"General Tiger, wait!"

Fortunately, Prince Zhu Biao came to his senses in time and helped Erhu.

"Father! This Minister Zhao only came to power with our support. He will definitely not lie about this matter. The third sister's reply also contains supporting evidence and personal experience obtained from the housekeeper of the Zhao family."

"Besides, this is because of a disaster. The Zhao family will never make mistakes in this kind of thing. I think Zhao Shilang is particularly obsessed with studying things and has a simple mind, so maybe we should make a simple guess."

"Take a simple guess? Are you saying that this time he is excluding dissidents so that he can do research at the Ministry of Industry with peace of mind?"

He would not listen to the words of Emperor Zhu Chongba, but he would definitely listen to the words of his sister and his eldest son.

When he thought about it, he really thought it was possible.

"As the head of the family, it may not be appropriate to exclude dissidents, but it is very possible to use it to liberate clan members who do not share the same philosophy."

"Of course, I dare not rule out that he is sending himself to get close."

"But no matter which faction these eight people belong to in the Zhao family, their purpose is to use this to show off their achievements, win over the 18th Inspection Patrol as a radical group, and completely control the right to speak in the family."

"After all, the bones are broken and the tendons are connected. The Zhao family only got the opportunity to display their talents due to admonition. As the current head of the family, Zhao Shilang, even if he is a conservative, will not easily give up on a family with the same surname. .”

Zhao Zheng showed that he is simple-minded, but being simple-minded does not mean being stupid. Simple also has simple uses.

Every suggestion from Prince Zhu Biao was within Emperor Zhu Chongba's comfort zone, making him nod his head.

"What you said, Biao'er, makes sense."

"Then looking at it this way, we have to do the opposite."

Emperor Zhu Chongba was a good player in terms of directness and planning, but he was able to endure the analysis here with Prince Zhu Biao for a long time, thanks to the empress.

Thanks to letting go of government affairs during this period.

"Father, do you mean to separate these two sides?"

Prince Zhu Biao figured out the key immediately and received another look of appreciation from Emperor Zhu Chongba.

"As an emperor, we just want to be useful."

"It is you, the new emperor, who wants the monarch and his subjects to be of one mind! Since you want the monarch and his subjects to be of one mind, then there must be a gap between the ministers!"

"Let's go back and continue to think about the travel. You, the emperor, can take care of it yourself."

With kindness and patience, the real emperor Zhu Chongba never changed. Although he maintained a normal expression, Prince Zhu Biao felt that the hands patting his shoulders were still as heavy as a thousand stones.

"My son, I know."

Prince Zhu Biao and his father, Emperor Zhu Chongba, stepped out of the Imperial Study Room together, one going backward and the other forward.

Emperor Zhu Chongba walked among the interlaced shadows cast by the palace, stepping on the scattered sunlight with every step.

Prince Zhu Biao was walking in the large open space on the other side of the imperial study. He was in the sun, but he was also under the canopy provided by the servants nearby.
