Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 94 Poison
"Your Majesty, my minister Baoshang wishes your Majesty long live and long live." In the main hall of Chaoyang Palace, Baoguo's eldest son Baoshang calmly saluted Ming Gong with a resolute expression.

"Oh, it's Baoshang. Your father, Lord Baogui, is a loyal minister of this court. The reason why I recruited you into the capital is to make you loyal to the emperor and serve the country. You must not let me down." Ming Gong said with a smile.

"Thank you for your praise. Although my father has passed away, I will definitely inherit my father's spirit. I am bold. This time I came to Beijing to help your majesty eradicate traitors and restore the world's innocence! The common people are at peace." Shang raised his head and played loudly.

"Okay, sure enough, you are a young man, and you have been motivated for a while, then you can talk to the widow, who is the traitor in the court?" Ming Gong asked happily with his eyes wide open.

"I want to impeach Prime Minister Zuo, General Wang Zhi! Relying on His Majesty's favor, this person continues to dominate the village, arrogantly arrogant, and blatantly neglecting His Majesty's New Deal!" Bao Shang said bluntly.

"This?" Ming Gong frowned, looking down at Bao Shang's flushed face.

"I want to appeal for Lord Die Tu. Before leaving the capital, the crown prince Tai Bao Die Tu was framed by someone. There were despicable people who secretly spread rumors and malicious slanders everywhere, which made Master Die Tu leave Beijing unjustly. The minister has already investigated clearly. This conspiracy, It was Wang Zhi who colluded with the head of the harem." Baoshang said angrily.

"What?" Ming Gong's eyes suddenly went dark, and he almost didn't jump up. "My son, this is the imperial court, don't mention anything else." Xinyue, who stood beside Minggong, hurriedly reminded him softly.

"Your Majesty, Wang Zhi is now a traitor, relying on his relationship with his relatives to wantonly frame Zhongliang and kill people invisible. Your Majesty, if a national thief like Wang Zhi is allowed to be rampant, he will hurt soldiers in the future. The heart of a son! Your majesty’s great cause of reform will also be in vain!” Bao Shang seemed to be deaf to it, and still shouted excitedly.

"Okay! Qing family, you just came to Beijing to pay a visit. The journey was exhausting. We will talk about important military and state affairs later, so you should step back." Ming Gong's face tightened, and he flicked his sleeves to interrupt Bao Shang's fierce words.

"Your Majesty!" Baoshang was burning with anger, still staring at him closely, and Baoshang was the only one left in the hall for an instant.

"I'm so pissed off. Baoshang, a brat, is acting like he's crazy today. In public, he mercilessly exposed the crimes committed by Wang Zhi and Concubine Jin!" In the long corridor of Chaoyang Palace, an angry While walking with his hands behind his back, Ming Gong complained to Xinyue beside him.

"Your Majesty, Wang Zhi's brother and sister are lawless. This is a fact. Moreover, His Majesty's rectification of the government is also to get rid of these foreign relatives who despise the law of the country. Isn't it better now that Prince Baoshang has directly proposed it? Why is Your Majesty still depressed? What about it?" Xinyue blinked her big cute eyes and asked in a daze.

"Xinyue, you don't know about this. The Wang Zhi brothers and sisters are a potential threat to the widow's monopoly, and they secretly spread rumors to attack the queen. The widow also knows, but this matter involves the dispute between the Taoist harem and the former court. After all, the Wang brothers and sisters are full of party feathers in the court. If the widows are not absolutely sure, once they act recklessly, wouldn't they give the Wang brothers and sisters a time to be vigilant? It is too urgent to praise this kid. Doesn't the widow's failure to step down add to the widow's plan?" Ming Gong said angrily.

"Oh, it turns out that His Majesty already has a plan in mind, so why didn't His Majesty make it clear to Young Master Baoshang in secret, so that Baoshang can cooperate with His Majesty better." Xinyue smiled.

"It makes sense, but I still feel that there is not enough manpower. In the past, Dug Tu and Cheng Rong were able to calm the hearts of the people in the court. Now more than half of the people in the palace are looking up to Wang Zhi. If the widow hadn't had Lu Kai, the right prime minister, I'm afraid they would have been emptied by them long ago!" Ming Gong sighed.

In Jianjia Palace, the bronze mirror of the dressing mirror was reflected by the flower shadows, and Bao Si sat alone by the mirror, making Ming Gong, who was far away from the threshold, feel pity.

"Si'er, where is Axi? Why is he in a daze here again?" Ming Gong gleefully covered Bao Si's eyes, and smiled happily.

"My concubine greets the king, and Axi is tidying up the bookshelves, so she can't accompany me for the time being. The king's complexion doesn't seem to be very good today. Could something unhappy happen again?" Bao Si asked in a soft voice. .

"Ah? Si'er, I didn't expect you to have such a delicate heart. You could tell when I came in, so you have to give me some advice. Baoshang openly exposed the collusion between Wang Zhi and Concubine Jin in the court today. You See, should the widow take over this case?" Ming Gong asked.

"Your Majesty, Si'er knew about this matter before. Baoshang once approached his concubine and told him about his sworn feud with the Wang family. To be honest, my concubine agreed with Mr. Bao's opinion very much, but Wang It's not ready yet, is it?" Bao Si murmured sharply.

"Si'er, you are really like a roundworm in the widow's stomach. Indeed, the widow has not yet made up his mind to get rid of the Wang brothers and sisters, but Si'er, what is the difference between you and Imperial Concubine Jin? Why do you describe her as Yazi when you mention her?" Ming Gong asked strangely.

"Your Majesty, in terms of personal enmity, the Wang brothers and sisters are the concubine's mother-killing enemies, and Lord Baohou was also killed by the Wang family. In terms of justice, the Wang family poisoned the village and annexed the land. Your Majesty, you have never been a commoner, and you don't know how the common people How much has the justice of the country been lost by oppressing the relatives and princes in the village like the Wang family? The courtiers and concubines believe that the people are the foundation of the country, and the king is also one of the people in the world, so the only thing to do is to advocate justice for the people!" Bao Si Said excitedly.

"Si'er, what you said is very reasonable, but I am very puzzled by the few things you said. How did you know that Wang's brother and sister were the murderers?" Ming Gong asked. He looked at Bao Si in surprise.

"Your Majesty, don't you still trust Si'er?" Bao Si stared into Ming Gong's eyes with tears in his eyes.

"Well, Si'er, you have to trust the widow. The widow is only for your own good. In all things, the widow will protect you and help you avoid danger. But please calm down, okay?" Mingong persuaded earnestly.
