    The next day

    After retiring from the court, Tu Minghui went to the harem with great fanfare and went to Ci'an Palace to pay his respects!

    After all, Qiao Mu¡¯s body is old and he sleeps lightly, so he woke up early and was already lying leisurely on a chair to bask in the sun.

    He half-squinted his eyes, feeling very comfortable.

    It wasn¡¯t until the people waiting nearby knelt down and said to greet Saint An that they realized that her cheap grandson had come to say hello.

    "Greetings to the Royal Grandmother!

    "My grandson has been busy for days since he ascended the throne and has not come to pay his respects frequently. I hope the imperial grandmother will not blame him!"  "

    No matter what, Tu Minghui has indeed not seen the Queen Mother for nearly half a year, so when he comes again this time, he naturally has to confess first.

    While he was talking, he squatted down and helped Qiao Mu, who was half-reclined on the recliner, adjust the beads.

    ¡°Why is Minghui free to come today!

    "Don't be too polite. Sit down quickly. Aunt Qiao will serve tea. The Yuhong Longjing served last time was good.

    You¡¯re tired from going to court. Drink more tea later!

    If you¡¯re hungry, I¡¯ll have some snacks too!

    You take a look at what you want to eat. Don¡¯t worry, you can let the people in the small kitchen cook it!  "

    Qiao Mu wanted to see the current emperor after the disciples left yesterday, but as a grandmother, she always felt bad about going suddenly, and the disciples also said that they would let the new emperor come to pay their respects, so she was not too anxious and just waited.  The new emperor comes.

    Now we can¡¯t just wait.

    He quickly opened his eyes and showed off his kindness as a grandmother in a few words.

    Such words of concern shocked Tu Minghui for a moment, and it took him a while to recover:

    "Grandma, don't be too busy!

    My grandson has already had his breakfast and is not hungry at all just after breakfast, but Yuhong Longjing is good for some. He spent a lot of time talking to those incompetent officials this morning and his mouth is very dry!

    Sorry to bother you, Grandma Qiao!  "

    After Tu Minghui brought a chair over to Wei Xiang and sat down, he opened his mouth and brought the topic to the court, hoping to arouse resonance.

    ¡°But it made you angry!

    Don¡¯t take it too seriously. If you really don¡¯t like it, just send it to a remote place.

    Aren¡¯t places like Jiaozhi, Lingnan and other places often short of people?  "

    Qiao Mu understood the meaning very well and immediately followed Tu Minghui's words and brought the conversation between the two of them to the court, so as to prepare the ground for what they needed to talk about next.

    ¡°Grandma Huang is joking!

    "Those officials have not made any serious mistakes, so how can they denounce the border areas at will? Even if some officials are wrong, there are many entangled forces, and I am powerless!"  "

    Tu Minghui took the cup of tea handed over by Grandma Qiao and did not drink it. Instead, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, feeling a little pathetic for himself.

    Who doesn¡¯t want to be an emperor who speaks his mind?

    "But what he did as an emperor was really cowardly. There was a Supreme Emperor oppressing him above him, and the ministers below him were disobedient. There were also many old ministers who relied on their elders and betrayed them. It was really difficult to deal with him.

    If he wants to issue an edict to denounce him, I am afraid that before the edict can be written, the Supreme Emperor will have to call him over to teach him how to be a benevolent king.

    Qiao Mu knew the main show was coming, sat up straight with a calm expression, and asked in a serious tone:

    ¡°How can you not punish someone if you make a mistake?

    By the way, yesterday your father told me about the Zhen family, saying that the Zhen family bought a hundred hectares of fertile land for thirty-six taels of silver. Is this true?

    If it is true, he should be severely punished!

    ¡°Otherwise, if the Zhen family spends thirty-six taels of silver today to buy a hundred hectares of fertile land, tomorrow they will have to spend thirty-six taels of silver to buy a thousand hectares of fertile land, and the day after tomorrow they will have to buy the whole world!

    Also changed to the Zhen family¡¯s world?  "

    Qiao Mu doesn¡¯t have to be too skillful in using hats and analogies. In just a few minutes, the Zhen family¡¯s purchase of fertile land at a low price has been extended to wanting to steal the country and rebel. His thinking is very fast.

    Such words made Tu Minghui, who was ready to answer the question, open his mouth in shock, not knowing how to answer!

    He just wanted to use the Queen Mother's decree to punish the Zhen family and deploy some of his own men. But according to the Queen Mother's words, was he going to slap the Zhen family to death or destroy the nine clans?  The kind of shooting to death.

    Don't say that ginger is still old!

    Can¡¯t afford to offend, can¡¯t afford to offend!

    When Qiao Mu saw Tu Minghui¡¯s expression, he knew that he was still soft-hearted and timid, but this kind of thing was always easy to avoid.If he dies, he will be injured instead.

    By recalling the original memory, Qiao Mu could easily analyze that the Zhen family was now the right-hand man of the Supreme Emperor. The reason why the Supreme Emperor was able to maintain his unrivaled position in the court was also due to the operation of the Zhen family in the court.  If there is only a slight punishment, I am afraid that it will scare the snake and cause a counterattack.

    It¡¯s better to beat him to death with a stick!

    "As long as the Zhen family's power is wiped out in a very short period of time, most of the Emperor's left and right hands will be broken off. Although it may still slightly affect the court in the future, it will never be the same as it is now, and it will be difficult to compete head-on.

    ¡° However, Qiao Mu did not continue to talk about the benefits, and just waited quietly for Tu Minghui¡¯s reply.

    "Grandmother, what do you mean?"

    After a long time, Tu Minghui made a gesture of wiping his neck in disbelief.

    At this time, Qiao Mu finally showed a teachable smile: "Minghui!

    You have to know that when the world discovers that someone has done great evil, it must not be the first time that this person has done evil. It must have happened many times in the past, but it was just not discovered by others.

    ¡°Whenever the evidence is conclusive, show it to me so that I can consider what kind of edict it is!  "

    Neither of them spoke clearly, but they both understood each other's meaning. After Tu Minghui experienced the initial shock, he quickly understood what his imperial grandmother meant, and he couldn't help but want to give it a try.  If he could really wipe out the Zhen family, he would be able to seize most of the power from his father no matter what.

    By the time¡­¡­

    I feel very excited just thinking about it.

    If it were before, he would definitely not have dared, because the Supreme Emperor not only held more power than him, but also had the word "filial piety" on him, but it is different now. Now he has his direct royal grandmother as his backer, who is enough to fight back with filial piety.

    ¡°That¡¯s what the Imperial Grandmother taught you!

    By the way, yesterday I heard that the Imperial Grandmother wanted to know about the situation of Cheng'en's family. My grandson's manpower is quite useful. I have sorted out some things yesterday, just in time to show it to you!

    There are some more detailed ones, which are being sorted out at the moment. It is estimated that they will not be sorted out until the evening. If it is not too late, I will send someone to deliver them to you. If it is already late, I will send them to you tomorrow morning.  Come here and I won¡¯t nag you to rest!  "

    Qiao Mu is willing to help him get rid of the Zhen family and gather the imperial power. Naturally, Tu Minghui has to reciprocate the favor and bring him some things that the imperial grandmother wants to show his sincerity in cooperation.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
