Chapter 2096 Forced questioning
Emperor Xuanming is so smart, he can naturally see that Chu Heng offered these two things today mainly to check and balance Bei Rong.
He was happy to try the effect himself.
Called He Dequan to fetch water himself.
He first dipped some ink on his hands, then took the soap and slowly washed it.
Seeing that Emperor Xuanming had washed his hands, He Dequan hurriedly handed over the handkerchief.
Emperor Xuanming was in a very happy mood at the moment: "Aiqing is very kind!"
"Go, light this candle too, today I will use this candle to review papers."
These words can be said to be a compliment to Chu Heng.
He Dequan was shocked, but at the same time he had to sigh, this Lord Chu is really amazing, he can always help the emperor solve the problems in his heart, who would not like such a courtier.
Deng Jieyu recently wanted to speak ill of Lord Chu to the emperor, but this time she might be disappointed.
Chu Heng came out of the imperial study room half an hour later.
And not long after he left.
Old Zhong Ge and others, as well as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of the Ministry of Households, were also called into the palace. I don’t know what they discussed.
And after Mr. Zhong Ge and others left the palace.
If there are those keen officials, they can find out that at the same time, Emperor Xuanming transferred some officials from the Ministry of Industry to leave, and took two prescriptions, and secretly went to Beirong.
And at this time.
Qi Shangshu and Deng Taifu were drinking in a restaurant with Prince Beirong.
The two were obviously absent-minded.
Both of them have eyeliner, so they naturally know that Chu Heng entered the palace today, followed by the news that Zhong Ge and other royalist officials also entered the palace.
However, neither of them was called into the palace.
I don't even know what decision the emperor made.
The two of them used to be involved in this kind of major political affairs no matter what they said, but they felt a little uncomfortable because they were excluded today.
At the same time, Qi Shangshu was still a little worried, whether his progress in the Beirong matter was too slow, so the emperor was dissatisfied, so he was so indifferent.
Taifu Deng felt a little uneasy.
He relied on divine favor to get his current position. After all, he didn't have much real power at all. Most of the time, he cooperated with the emperor.
Now, the emperor doesn't even call him into the palace to discuss important government affairs.
Could it be that the previous events really made the emperor feel bad about him?
The two of them looked like brothers in distress.
Taifu Deng was unwilling to be reconciled. He looked at Prince Beirong, smiled, and raised his glass: "My lord, I would like to toast you."
"We are so familiar, and we don't say that out of the ordinary, I don't know what the prince thinks about the trade between the two countries?"
This is to force Prince Beirong to express his opinion.
Qi Shangshu naturally didn't want to lag behind, if he could get the prince of Beirong to cooperate with them and stabilize the war in the north, the credit would be his.
"My lord, you can understand the current situation, you won't be willing to make wedding dresses for others, right?" Qi Shangshu's words have already hinted clearly.
It's been so long.
Bei Rong did not send anyone to pick up Prince Bei Rong.
Who knows how the few remaining princes and princes in the Beirong court will share his manpower and power.
Prince Beirong's complexion is not very good, there is a blue shadow under his eyes, no matter how much his face is covered, he can't cover his tiredness.
Hearing what the two said, he lowered his head, and a shadow flashed in his eyes.
No matter how much he denies it, the facts cannot allow him to face it.
"What the two adults said is very true. Naturally, this king is willing to live and rest with Da Chu."
