Sign a Lu Fengxian at the beginning

Chapter 30: Tight inside and loose outside, always ready

Half a month passed in a flash.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Zhou Chen looked at the memorial in his hand and slapped it hard on the jade case.

"Damn it, what do they want to do?"

Zhou Chen looked ugly.

Since that day when he drove the officials out of Yangxin Hall, the officials have continued to write memorials without interruption for a single day.

The contents of the memorial were all spoken by the officials in the Hall of Mental Cultivation that day, and the purpose was largely the same.

The officials seemed to be clinging to this matter, and they seemed determined not to give up.

Moreover, because of this incident, all officials put aside political affairs.

These days, Zhou Chen rarely saw memorials related to political affairs. Basically, they were all about the ban of Queen Wu Ying and the death of Taifu Yanhua.

Obviously, this was the official's counterattack against Zhou Chen, the emperor.

Public affairs were abolished due to power struggles.

Are these the important ministers and officials of his Great Zhou Dynasty?

Zhou Chen had a gloomy face and his eyes flickered.

Zhou Chen knew that there must be something to do with the queen's relatives behind this incident.

Of course, it is not ruled out that those who hide in the shadows and want to reap the benefits are adding fuel to the flames.

However, whether it is those who are closely related to the queen's relatives or those who want to reap the benefits, this matter cannot continue like this.

It must be resolved as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the officials continue like this, the court will really have big problems.

At this time, a house guard came in.

"Your Majesty, Governor Cao wishes to see you."

"Xuan!"

Zhou Chen was shocked, put away his thoughts, and regained his composure.

Ever since he discovered the problem with the cup of tea that day, Zhou Chen asked Cao Zhengchun to clean up the rats in the palace.

In the past few days, many people have been purged from the palace, and almost every day someone died and someone was arrested.

So far, although Zhou Chen dare not say that the palace has been completely cleaned up, it has been at least 89% cleaned up.

And Zhou Chen also no longer trusted the eunuchs in the palace because of the traitor who served as eunuchs in Yangxin Palace, so he replaced all the eunuchs serving around him with eunuchs and factory guards who signed in through the system.

In this way, Zhou Chen's side will be absolutely safe.

If others want to target the people around Zhou Chen, they have no chance.

"Yes." The house guard immediately withdrew.

A moment later, Cao Zhengchun walked into the Yangxin Hall, exuding a faint smell of blood that even Zhou Chen on the dragon chair could smell.

Obviously, Cao Zhengchun has killed many people these days.

"Old slave has met the emperor."

After Cao Zhengchun walked in, he immediately knelt down and saluted.

"Get up!"

Zhou Chen looked at the Lord of Hell, who was widely rumored in the palace these days, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

Cao Zhengchun is still the ruthless Cao Zhengchun among the "No. 1 in the world", and he really did not disappoint.

After Cao Zhengchun's cleaning up, the palace has become much more stable these days.

"Why did you come to see me today?" Zhou Chen asked directly.

"Your Majesty, I have already investigated everything you asked me to investigate. Please take a look at it." Cao Zhengchun took out a small booklet and handed it to Zhou Chen.

"oh!"

When Zhou Chen heard this, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

The thing he asked Cao Zhengchun to investigate was simply who poisoned Taifu Yanhua to death in Tianlao, and who wanted to poison him as the emperor.

Zhou Chen originally thought that the other party was deeply hidden, and Cao Zhengchun's east factory was newly built, so it would be impossible to find out so quickly.

But he didn't expect that Cao Zhengchun gave him a surprise, and he found out so quickly and got the result.

Zhou Chen couldn't wait to pick up the small booklet in front of him, opened it, and started reading.

Zhou Chen wanted to see who poisoned Taifu Yanhua to death in Tianlao and plotted against him as the emperor, and who wanted to make him bedridden and poison him as the emperor.

Looking at the contents in the small booklet, Zhou Chen's expression kept changing.

To be honest, the results in the small book were both expected and unexpected for Zhou Chen.

There is nothing wrong with doubting people, but those who want him, the emperor, to die are not doubters.

After reading the results on the brochure, Zhou Chen closed the brochure expressionlessly, tapping his fingers and remaining silent.

In these days, in addition to the cup of tea that day, Zhou Chen also suffered four or five similar incidents of being poisoned, but in the end he never let the other party succeed.

To be honest, Zhou Chen had already raised the butcher's knife in his heart.

Even if there is no such result, he is still ready to take action.

Now that Cao Zhengchun has found out everything, he has nothing to hesitate about anymore.

"Cao Zhengchun, you have settled all the internal guard matters!" Zhou Chen looked at Cao Zhengchun.

Hearing this, Cao Zhengchun immediately said: "Back to the emperor, I have taken care of the matter of the inner guards. I can only find out these things as quickly as possible, thanks to the inner guards."

indeed.

The only way Cao Zhengchun could find out these things quickly was because the internal guards provided a lot of help.

Even though the inner guard has ceased to exist in name only, the inner guard is still an inner guard after all, and there is still a lot of news in this palace.

"In this case, let me inform you. From now on, your east factory will be prepared, tighten inside and loosen outside, and be on standby at any time."

"Send someone to call the Eight Wise Kings, the Minister of War, and the Marquis of Weiwu, and ask them to enter the palace secretly to see me immediately."

Zhou Chen said with a serious face.

There can't be any mistakes in this matter. Once it starts, it will affect the whole body. It is necessary to make all-round plans.

Now that the Grand Master is away, the only people Zhou Chen can use outside the palace are the Eight Sages, the Minister of War, and the Marquis Weiwu.

The Eight Wise King Zhou Xian is Zhou Chen's eighth emperor uncle. He is a well-known Wise King in the royal family and is naturally loyal to Zhou Xian.

The Minister of War and Marquis Weiwu were also loyal ministers and veteran generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they both followed the footsteps of Grand Master Wen Zhong.

Especially the Weiwu Marquis. In the absence of the Grand Master, the soldiers and horses of the Twelve Shenwu Guards and the Sixth Guards of the North Camp were all temporarily in charge of the Weiwu Marquis.

This shows Taishi Wen Zhong’s trust in Wei Wuhou.

After hearing Zhou Chen's words, Cao Zhengchun's eyes flashed with light, and he immediately bowed and said, "I obey the order."

Cao Zhengchun knew that their Dongchang team might be the chief surgeon in this matter.

This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for Dongchang to make a name for itself.

These days, although Dongchang has some prestige in the palace, it is not enough to make people fear him.

If Dongchang can handle this matter well, then from now on, Dongchang will be able to gain a foothold in this great week.

"Go for it!"

"Go and make arrangements immediately, and call Jin He for me by the way."

Zhou Chen waved his hand and said.

"Old slave, please retire."

After Cao Zhengchun left, Zhou Chen opened the small book again.

He really didn't expect that the person who could scheme against both the emperor and empress Wu Ying would actually be a eunuch.

It is true that people cannot be judged by appearance, and sea water cannot be measured.

If the queen of Qingfeng Palace knew about it, I don't know what she would think.
