I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 96 Beijing Cabinet: We are lying flat! You figure it out!
"Mr. Yang Ge!"

"Can you give me some accurate news?"

"Does Your Majesty really want to move the capital to Jinling?"

"Yes, Mr. Yang Ge, how can your Majesty stay in the capital and not stay in the capital? You have to go to Jinling!"

"Where did this news come from!? Is it accurate? Is it reliable?"

When Yang Tinghe arrived at Fengtian Palace, he ran into the hot pot ants Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling.

The Great Court Meeting in the capital was launched, organized and initiated by Queen Mother Zhang, and it was obviously the two brothers who were the instigators behind it.

Since the two brothers found out that he had become the scapegoat in the capital, they sent people everywhere to inquire about the news, and also went to his house to inquire. Naturally, they could not see anyone else.

They couldn't see Liu Jian, Xie Qian and others either.

Therefore, this less formal court meeting came.

When Yang Tinghe was stopped by the two brothers for questioning, other officials also pricked up their ears and looked over quickly, with anxiety and fear in their eyes.

The news is flying all over the sky, and no one can stay calm.

"Two princes, where did you get the news? I can give you a definite answer: Fake news! This is news that can't be more fake!"

"From the beginning to the end, Your Majesty only went to Jinling to worship Taizu. The two princes opened the letter at the beginning. Could there be any mistake?"

Yang Tinghe refuted the rumors for the two of them on the spot.

"But...but there is news that His Majesty is going to set up a temporary cabinet there?"

The two brothers were dumbfounded and felt something was wrong.

"His Majesty has also discussed with us the matter of the temporary cabinet... I also told the Queen Mother a few days ago that our cabinet has not received any clear news that the capital will be moved! We will not move the capital!"

Yang Tinghe emphasized again, and then walked to the front of the hall and stood up under the gaze of the civil and military officials of the court.

When he arrived, Wei Guogong Xu Yan was already on the opposite side, and the two nodded tacitly as a greeting.

"The capital will not be moved..."

"But, but...it's being spread outside now!"

"Various stores are selling off, and some people have even started moving south with their families..."

"Even the price of the girl in Kasuga Pavilion is..."

Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling didn't get the answer, so they followed in unwillingly and talked about some abnormal situations in the capital. They were buying up and not buying down. With the current situation in the capital, they knew that they had become a big grievance even though they were fools.

"You two princes, be careful! This is the Imperial City! Do you really hope that the news spread outside is true?"

A voice came from behind Fengtian Hall, and Liu Jian and Xie Qian walked in under the attention of everyone.

"Chief Assistant!"

"Mr. Ge..."

All civil and military officials turned to say hello.

"Master Chief Assistant, you guys are here just in time! Mr. Yang Ge just said that these are false news. Is this false news true? No, this... is this news false?"

Zhang Yanling came forward again, but the false news and the real news alternately confused him and he didn't know how to ask.

"Above the court, you two princes, please abide by the rules!"

However, Liu Jian gave them a bad look and stood in his place with a look on his face that no strangers should enter.

At first glance, he seemed to be in a very bad mood, as someone owed him millions of taels.

"Colleagues, this is the Fengtian Palace, not the vegetable market outside. How unbecoming of you to make such a noise! ​​Can't we be so arrogant when His Majesty is not in our capital?"

Xie Qian followed suit and stood up with a cold face. After standing, he gave a routine warning.

Okay, now everyone can see that they are not in a good mood.

When the two brothers of the Zhang family saw this situation, they felt a little calmer for some reason. The news was probably true... so it was strange that the cabinet was in a good mood.

But...the news is true, then their money——

For a moment, neither of them knew whether to be happy or sad.

Xu Yan saw all this and said nothing. He just turned to look at the empty throne on the high platform. The consequences of the emperor's absence in the capital were revealed. At least their current senses were very bad. It felt like this side Caotai team.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

Finally, Queen Mother Zhang came belatedly and arrived at the place next to the curtain where she was listening to politics.

It's ridiculous to say that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but... Empress Dowager Zhang has come to Fengtian Palace twice in a row. This was when the emperor was not captured and the emperor was still alive, and no one dared to say a word about the harem. Interfere with politics.

"See the Queen Mother!" "Hail the Queen Mother!"

All civil and military officials shouted and bowed.

After going through a ceremony, Empress Dowager Zhang directly asked her question again under the instructions of her two younger brothers.

"Liu Shoufu, Xie Cifu... what is going on with the current situation? Why did I hear... that the emperor wants to move the capital to Jinling? Also, he wants to set up a temporary cabinet in Jinling?" Queen Mother Zhang asked directly.

"Queen Mother Qi, these are all rumors!"

"Your Majesty has no intention of moving the capital to Jinling!"

Liu Jian answered sternly, still claiming false news.

This answer naturally did not satisfy the two Zhang brothers.

"But, what about the temporary cabinet? I heard that the emperor is dissatisfied with you... so he wants to set up a temporary cabinet over there to replace you?"

Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't hide things and had no political skills, so she opened their wounds in front of their faces.

In an instant, Fengtian Palace was extremely quiet, and Queen Mother Zhang's big eyes were filled with stupidity and innocence.

"No such thing!"

"Empress, Your Majesty just thinks that the cabinet is useful and has become a Taizu Shuangchen Preparatory Cabinet!"

"Although there are some things our cabinet cannot do properly, His Majesty will not be dissatisfied with us..."

Xie Qian said quickly.

"My lord! Begging for bones!"

"I hope the Queen Mother will approve!"

Liu Jian said nothing. When Xie Qian said this, he knelt down firmly.

"I beg for the bones!"

Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, also suddenly knelt down at this moment.

"I beg for the bones!"

Then, as if everyone had agreed, several important ministers knelt down and staged a collective resignation show, apparently protesting and venting their grievances in this silent way.

The cabinet did not do much to dissatisfy the emperor.

There are some things that can be discussed so as not to lead to the establishment of a separate cabinet.

So...everything else is false, and everyone's grievances are real!
"Ah... Chief Assistant, you guys..."

"This……"

Empress Dowager Zhang had never seen such a formation before, and she suddenly panicked.

"No! Lord Chief Assistant... His Majesty didn't ask you to cancel it!"

"Your Majesty will definitely come back!"

"You guys... act like you've been wronged a lot!"

The officials began to sing a double act. In short, although this process is fake, it must be performed.

Only in this way can the grievances and loyalty of the cabinet be demonstrated!

Seeing this, Xu Yan finally knew what the cabinet was planning.

These performances and behaviors, although they verbally deny that Zhu Houzhao wants to move the capital, have actually proved to the civil and military officials in the capital that Zhu Houzhao may move the capital to Jinling!

It is even more solid that the capital is about to lose its imperial capital!
therefore.

Although the court meeting reached an agreement in the end, they firmly approved all Zhu Houzhao's actions in Jinling.

The Cabinet will continue to stabilize the North.

But after the court meeting dispersed, Chief Assistant Liu Jian declared that he could not afford to be ill!
Xie Qian, the second assistant, also closed the door to thank guests!
The cabinet is temporarily led by Yang Tinghe.

This move instead plunged the capital into a huge panic. House prices plummeted, stores were sold off, assets were sold off, families moved to Jinling and other situations became more and more intense.

It was as if the capital city had suddenly come to an end.

The capital is in a turbulent situation. People who hold large areas of property in the capital are as anxious as ants on a hot pot. Various people gather in front of the homes of Liu Jian, Xie Qian, Yang Tinghe, and want the cabinet to take the lead in coming up with a solution. .

Within two days, there were voices claiming that something was going to be done to bring Zhu Houzhao back!

In response to this...the cabinet was completely at ease and allowed this dynamic situation to unfold in the capital.
