Da Song Private Investigator

In the capital city, it can be said that the wind and clouds are surging.

And at this time, something went wrong in the inner courtyard of the palace.

And it's a serious problem.

Last night, a group of rebels actually broke into the palace, and hacked and killed the maids and eunuchs. Their screams rang through the palace where the emperor Zhao Zhen lived. The situation at that time was extremely critical.

At that time, it was Empress Cao who served the emperor. Empress Cao ordered people to close the gate of the city for the safety of the emperor, and then ordered the eunuchs and guards to encircle and suppress them. It took half an hour to fight outside before it subsided. Empress Cao ordered those who went out to fight to lose their hair, and after the rebels were put down, they would be rewarded with broken hair.

Because of Empress Cao's method, the rebel army was wiped out without breaking into the palace.

It can be said that this stop Caohuang Palace has made great contributions.

But the emperor didn't think so. The emperor thought that this rebellion was deliberately arranged by Empress Cao in order to show his ability in front of him, so he had a grudge against Empress Cao.

The next day, after news of the riot in the palace reached Hualang, Bao Zheng and others, everyone was shocked, and after the shock, they greatly approved of Empress Cao's actions.

And so is Hwarang.

According to Hwarang's knowledge, Empress Cao was a rare virtuous empress in the Song Dynasty. She was born in a famous family and had a kind personality. Emperors such as Yingzong and Shenzong spoke highly of her.

I just heard that Empress Cao was ordinary-looking, so she was not favored by Renzong, and she failed to give birth to a boy and a half girl for Renzong in her life.

It is indeed a sad thing for a woman to be unable to give birth to a child. From the matter of Empress Cao, Hwarang didn't like Renzong's behavior, but he couldn't say it either.

Judging from this matter, Empress Cao is indeed outstanding, but the emperor may not approve it, so it is inevitable that Empress Cao will suffer for it.

However, Hwarang does not want to participate in the court affairs, so he still focuses on solving the case.

On this day, Bao Zheng went to the morning court on time. Because of the stolen jade seal, the emperor hadn't attended the morning court for several days. Many adults raised many objections to this, but the emperor didn't listen. There is no way.

However, if the emperor didn't go to the morning court, these ministers had to go, even if the emperor didn't go, they had to arrive on time, and came back after hearing the eunuch's announcement that the emperor was not feeling well.

But just after Bao Zheng and others went to the palace, an eunuch ran over and shouted that the emperor had arrived. After hearing these familiar words, all the ministers couldn't help smashing the country. The emperor who hadn't been in court for several days , finally began to go to court, and the wise emperor in their minds finally came back.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhao Zhen said to all the Aiqings, and then asked: "Have all Aiqings heard about what happened in the palace last night?"

After what happened last night, the ministers in the court have learned more or less through various channels, and now the emperor asked, and they repeatedly said yes, there are a few who like to flatter, and they have to rejoice for the emperor's safety Fan.

And some upright ministers wanted to severely punish the guards guarding the palace, thinking that it would be their dereliction of duty to let the thieves invade the palace. However, at this time, the emperor's kindness showed again. For a long time, it is normal for them to be negligent, so let’s avoid their heavy punishment this time.”

Now that the emperor has spoken, what else can they do, they can only listen.

And just after the emperor finished speaking, he suddenly changed his words: "Today, when I go to court, what I really want to discuss is not this matter, but the matter of abolishing the empress."

As soon as this remark came out, the entire hall suddenly fell silent, but the quiet time did not last long. Then, all the officials in the hall suddenly knelt down, and they shouted in unison: "Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

After these ministers Hanwan asked the emperor to think twice, Bao Zheng immediately stood up and said: "The empress has not lost her virtue, why should the emperor abolish it, please give me an explanation."

Zhao Zhen seemed to have expected this to happen, so he frowned slightly, and said: "The empress did not give birth to a son and a half daughter, which is immoral. Moreover, there was a civil turmoil in the palace last night, and the empress ignored me. You said, did she put the emperor in her eyes? Besides, in the palace, who dared to make trouble, but someone dared to come last night, and the queen closed the palace door tightly. Let me go out to check, I suspect that all of this is her arrangement, my lords, do you have anything to say?"

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, the officials were still furious, and Bao Zheng refused to give in at all, saying: "Empress Cao is virtuous, and all the officials and I know that the matter was so urgent last night, and the queen was also thinking about the safety of the emperor. How can the emperor blame the queen for this? If the queen is abolished, wouldn't there be chaos in the palace?"

After Bao Zheng finished speaking, Wen Yanbo stood up and said: "The reason why the entire harem can be orderly now is all thanks to Empress Cao's management. May I ask who in the entire harem can be competent?"

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly, and said: "My concubine Zhang Guifei is fine. She is kind and gentle, and her appearance is worthy of being the mother of this country."

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers shouted even more: "Concubine Zhang Gui's gentleness is just the gentleness of you alone, the emperor. In fact, how arrogant and domineering Concubine Zhang is in private, do you know the emperor?"

When the officials yelled like this, they said everything.

"A few years ago, there was a court lady who had an affair with a guard. Concubine Zhang Guifei interceded for the court lady. It was Empress Cao who stood up and said that if there is no severe punishment, the harem law will be difficult to tolerate. Just ask, let a person who doesn't even know the law manage the harem. Can the harem stay in order?"

"When Concubine Zhang was conferred the title of Concubine for the first time, she clamored for the Emperor to confer an official title on his father, but in all dynasties of the Song Dynasty, we all opposed the dictatorship of foreign relatives. If Concubine Zhang was to be the Queen, I don't know if it belongs to the Zhao family in Song Dynasty. The Great Song Dynasty is still their Zhang Family Great Song Dynasty. On the other hand, Empress Cao, her ancestors were the founding heroes of the Great Song Dynasty, but she never asked for anything for her family. How bad is such a queen? There is Queen Cao, that is my great Song Zhifu."

The civil servants of the Song Dynasty were sometimes very powerful. There was nothing they dared not say. As long as they felt that they were doing the right thing, they would say it. Even if the emperor was unhappy because of it, they would not hesitate to say it.

The officials were furious, and Zhao Zhen regretted it a little. He couldn't find a reason to refute, so he could only announce the matter for further discussion, and then retreated.

Many ministers were not excited by the emperor's compromise. They felt that what they did was right. The emperor would not be able to make Zhang Guifei his queen. Even if Empress Cao died one day, they would still oppose Zhang Guifei as his queen.
