The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1009

[Chapter 1009: The treacherous minister asks for an audience]

“But later, because of the encroachment of Qi, our fertile land was also occupied step by step, and we had no choice but to give up the textile industry.”

The fast horse censor did not know such history, and was very happy.

“I hope the villagers don’t worry. The cotton will be delivered within a day. Now everyone can go home to select needles and threads for handover.”

“Everyone should go back to select materials and strive to complete the entire first process when the cotton is delivered.”

After the fast horse censor finished speaking, he also breathed heavily, as if the disease brought by the cold had overwhelmed him.

After seeing this situation, people slowly left the room. Perhaps there were too many people in the room and the air was squeezed out.

“Let’s go out first, everyone, go home and solve the day’s affairs now, so as not to disturb the fast horse censor’s rest.”

The village chief was the first to walk out of the room, and the villagers came out in a flash.

The whole system began to operate, and people began to be busy with tasks.

At this time, the palace also welcomed several uninvited guests.

Since the doctor rejected the order to seek talents at the court meeting, he changed to discuss with the planner and the internal historian of Zhili.

“We have already arrived at the gate of the palace. Do we really have to meet the emperor so late at night?”

Zhili Neishi also couldn’t believe it.

“How can you think so? If we meet the emperor now, he will definitely be very touched. After all, it must be an important matter for him to ask for an audience at night.”

“And the emperor may be discouraged or worried after I contradicted him in the court last time.”

“Now we can dispel the emperor’s suspicion and make a better arrangement for our Mid-Autumn Night operation.”

Langzhongling is naturally a smart person and will not put his situation in a very dangerous position.

“It’s Langzhongling. No wonder Prime Minister Zhao always valued you. Now I know the gap between us.”

Zhili Neishi also gave Langzhongling a thumbs up.

The two of them also hurried into the palace in the night, and the eunuch was still guarding outside the door at this time. The entire palace was also very strict.

“Who is coming? Why are you here so late?”

The eunuch also raised his sharp voice and shouted hurriedly.

“Reporting to the eunuch, I am the doctor, and the one next to me is the internal historian Zhili.”

“It’s so late, and we are still here to disturb you. It’s really our fault.”

“But we also have urgent matters to report to the emperor. I hope the eunuch can report to the emperor.”

After the doctor said this, he got off his horse and waited by the side.

“I will report to the emperor now, and wait for the two of you to wait patiently for a while.”

After the eunuch finished speaking, he quickly went to the study to report to the emperor.

At this time, the study was also full of silence, and everyone was trying their best to reform in a better direction.

“Reporting to the emperor, the doctor and the internal historian Zhili are asking for an audience outside the palace.”

The eunuch waited for the emperor’s answer at the door of the study.

At this time, the emperor was also stunned. If he asked these two people to come and summon him now.

Naturally, they would find that they were in a dilemma.

“I’m afraid it’s not appropriate now, your majesty? If they come now, they will see through our plan.”

“Of course, we can’t let them see our existence, otherwise they will choose something inappropriate.”

Lin Tian also directly stated the interests involved, which made the emperor alert.

“The doctor has always thought that we are also a group of brainless people. He thinks we are stupid, so we naturally cannot let them see it.”

“And now he is coming to meet you, you naturally have to welcome them, but we naturally cannot be seen by them.”

The general also said it, expressing his opinion.

“But I am afraid it is not appropriate for us to leave now. We can only hide from them first. Otherwise, our plan will be exposed.”

The general also added that everyone was very nervous about the previous situation.

“But it seems that the emperor has not slept yet so late. How should the emperor explain it?”

Lin Tian also asked this difficult question again, which also made people a little nervous.

“Don’t worry about the emperor’s problem. I came here tonight to find my brother to do something. The doctor also knows that I killed the guest, so I have a suitable opportunity to solve it.”

Zi Xin’s answer at this time was also beyond people’s expectations.

“Yes, yes, Zi Xin’s purpose today is to come to complain to the emperor, so we don’t have to worry.”

“But for now we also need to hide. Although these people are not harmful, it is also very necessary to leave for our plan.”

After Lin Tian finished speaking, he also picked up his coat and prepared to leave the study.

The Grand Commandant naturally couldn’t stay here, as this would arouse the suspicion of the two treacherous ministers.

Therefore, Lin Tian and the Grand Commandant also prepared their clothes and checked to see if there was anything left here. Then,

following the Emperor’s instructions, they ran out through the secret passage in the study.

After seeing that the two ministers had left, the emperor also asked the eunuch to let them come over.

“The emperor has ordered that you two follow me into the palace.”

The long dragging voice also made people shudder.

“The emperor is inside, I hope you two will go in quietly.”

“I will wait outside the door, just call me if you have anything.”

After saying this, the eunuch withdrew.

“I am here to see the emperor.”

“The two ministers are not polite, please come in quickly, it’s a bit bleak outside.”

After seeing the emperor’s sincerity, the doctor was the first to push the door in.

What came to his face was a burst of warm breath, which was completely opposite to the bleakness outside.

“It’s really my fault to disturb the emperor so late.”

“It’s late now, why doesn’t the emperor rest?”

The doctor also asked the emperor, after all, it was a bit suspicious not to sleep so late.

“Now my sister is being bullied, how can I, as a brother, sleep!”

After the emperor finished speaking, he also looked at the two people who had just entered the door.

It happened that there was a screen just after entering the door, which just blocked Zixin’s position.

“So Madam Zhao is here. I am sorry for being rude.”

The doctor smiled apologetically.

The doctor knew that Zi Xin must have come here to inform the emperor of what happened this afternoon.

Now the doctor could no longer hide it, so he said directly to the emperor:

“What happened this afternoon was also my negligence. We were supposed to go to the Prime Minister’s Mansion to comfort Madam Zhao.”

“Just when we were leaving, the guest Zhao Shihao also did something out of line, which frightened Madam Zhao. I am really sorry.”
