"Your Majesty, this is the current situation."
"The Sima family has nothing to fear. As long as the Queen Mother agrees, I can pioneer for you."
Wang Xiang talked about his plan seriously.
What Wang Xiang wants to do now is to be one step ahead of Lu Yu and bring out the issue of Zhongzheng system reform.
This can't be considered a robbery. This was what he proposed in the first place.
Since Lu Yu didn't dare to stand up, let him do it himself.
Wang Xiang's idea was also very simple. He would contact the ministers in the temple, tell them the Queen Mother's ideas in a vague way, and get them to agree first, and then the Queen Mother would come forward and issue the edict directly.
The Queen Mother personally issued the edict, and the officials collectively agreed.
What can the general do?
His Majesty Shengming had said so many good ideas, and Wang Xiang was not worried that the ministers would disagree. As long as he leaked some of those ideas, the ministers would go crazy.
What Sima family, go away.
What you can give, the Queen Mother can give, and what you cannot give, the Queen Mother can still give, so what use do you need?
As long as all the ministers work together and the Queen Mother comes forward, no matter how strong Master Sima is, he will still have to grit his teeth and swallow it. If this matter can affect his health, that would be the best. Once Master Sima dies Now, can Sima Zhao still be the opponent of the ministers?
Queen Mother Guo felt a little incredible when she heard Wang Xiang's words.
Guo Li and Guo Zhi had also discussed the situation at the beginning. In their eyes, the Sima family was an invincible and powerful enemy, a big shot with one hand covering the sky. They could not yell at them at all and could only bow their heads and admit their mistakes.
But Wang Xiang criticized their family as worthless. In Wang Xiang's words, it seemed that the Sima family would perish tomorrow.
Queen Mother Guo was a little confused by this contrast.
She asked cautiously: "If I issue such an edict, will Master Sima take action against me?"
Wang Xiang was shocked.
Why do you feel that this woman is easier to fool than her grandson? ?
"Queen Mother, if you issue such an edict, all the wise ministers in the temple must be trying their best to protect you. If Master Sima dared to attack you, how could the ministers spare him?"
Wang Xiang said helplessly: "Master Sima is not as scary as you think."
"He also has things to worry about and opponents he is afraid of. If the ministers join forces, then Master Sima will have no choice but to bow his head and be completely unable to resist. He is not Emperor Wu!"
Queen Mother Guo was very surprised. Why had her family never said such a thing before?
They are all talkative teachers.
"If that's the case, then I'm willing to obey."
"Queen Mother!! How virtuous and capable are you!"
"You are the common master of the world. How can there be a monarch in the world who obeys his ministers? It is only right for ministers to obey your orders."
"Whatever you want to do, I will do my best!"
"Please don't say such things again."
For the first time in so many years, Queen Mother Guo felt like being treated as a leader. Her heart suddenly felt a little different, but Wang Xiang said again: "Please give the order, Queen Mother!"
Queen Mother Guo took a deep breath, her voice trembling.
"In that case, Prince Wang Aiqing, please contact the ministers now and let them know about this matter. Once you have contacted me, I will personally issue an order to announce this decree."
"only!!!"
Wang Xiang saluted again and then said goodbye to the Queen Mother.
Queen Mother Guo has never been a person who enjoys power, but at this moment, her face turned red. She smelled power for the first time and could not hide her inner excitement.
In the next few days, Queen Mother Guo changed a lot. She no longer hid in Zhaoyang Palace and started to wander around the palace with her maids.
Faced with this situation, the soldiers and generals in the palace were stunned and all bowed to him.
This person is different from the puppet emperor. She can issue an order to chop off their heads directly.
Queen Mother Guo also discovered their fear of herself.
This made her even happier
"General, stay!"
When Guo Li, Guo Zhi, and Guo Jian arrived in front of Zhaoyang Hall, Mr. Guo suddenly stopped them.
Guo Li was stunned and looked at the eunuch of the same race in front of him with disgust in his eyes.
In his opinion, Husband Guo is a shame to the Guo family.
He is a symbol of the punishment the Guo family has suffered. If he does not die, the Guo family will always have the mark of the tortured person.
"what you do?!"
Guo Li didn't hide his disgust at all and asked directly in a cold voice.
Mr. Guo's face darkened and he asked, "Why is the general here?"
"Guo Xuan! Are you crazy?! I'm here to see the Queen Mother! Get out of my way!!"
Mr. Guo said calmly: "Zhaoyang Palace, you are not allowed to break in, not even General Xuande. Do you want me to go in and report?"
"You bitch"
Guo Li cursed loudly and grabbed Mr. Guo's neck. At that moment, the guards around him suddenly put down their spears and looked at Guo Li. For some reason, Guo Li suddenly felt frightened and suddenly let go of his hand.
When he realized his fear, his face turned red again and he stared resentfully at Husband Guo in front of him.
Guo Zhi stepped forward and said kindly: "We are here to visit the Queen Mother. Please go in and report."
Husband Guo nodded, turned around and walked into the hall.
"Is she crazy?! What is she doing? How dare she make us wait?"
Guo Li was furious, but Guo Zhi said nothing.
After a while, Mr. Guo came out and motioned for them to come in.
Guo Li pushed him away and broke into the hall.
"The Queen Mother is going to do this"
As soon as Guo Li opened his mouth, he couldn't continue.
He looked at the Queen Mother sitting in the upper position in shock. He had known the Queen Mother for many years, but he had never seen her look like this.
I saw the Queen Mother carefully put on makeup and wearing the most luxurious clothes. Her whole temperament changed drastically. She was no longer as timid as before. She raised her head and looked extraordinary. She was surrounded by maids and servants on both sides, just like a real Queen Mother. , she was originally the Queen Mother.
Queen Mother Guo glanced at Guo Li, her eyes still a little flustered, and asked calmly: "Why did General Xuande come here?"
Guo Li was silent for a moment, then asked with a sneer: "If nothing happens, can't you come to see the Queen Mother?"
"Of course you can, sit down."
The three of them walked aside and looked at the changed Queen Mother. They were all a little confused. Guo Li said again: "Queen Mother, why didn't you summon us during these days?"
Guo Li and others knew the Queen Mother's character very well. Whenever they had a quarrel, as long as they ignored the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would send someone to intercede and take the initiative to bow her head and admit her mistake.
Therefore, after this quarrel, Guo Li and others were still waiting for the Queen Mother to take the initiative to admit her mistake.
Guo Lidu had already thought of how to reprimand her.
However, after waiting for a long time, the Queen Mother did not come. Guo Li and others suddenly couldn't bear it anymore and came to pay their respects.
"I have nothing to do, why should I be summoned?"
the Queen Mother asked rhetorically.
Guo Li couldn't help it anymore. He stood up and said loudly: "Don't forget, Queen Mother! You are the Queen Mother, and I am also your elder! I watched you grow up, how dare you be so indifferent to me?" present"
When Queen Mother Guo heard his reprimand, she almost showed her true colors and was a little flustered.
But Guo Li immediately said: "You'd better stay away from Cao Mao! According to the original plan, don't offend the general, otherwise, we will never come to Zhaoyang Palace again!!"
When Queen Mother Guo heard these words, she immediately stopped panicking.
She sneered, "Okay, since General Xuande doesn't want to come, then I won't hold him back and see him off!"
"You!! How brave!! If it weren't for the clan, how could you be sitting here?!"
Guo Li scolded.
Queen Mother Guo was furious, "If it weren't for me, you would all still be prisoners! I am the Queen Mother of a country, how dare you reprimand me like this? Someone! Send them out!!"
Before Guo Li could say anything, the servants around him came up directly.
Guo Li was shocked and angry, roaring loudly, but was stunned and was squeezed out of Zhaoyang Palace by the chamberlain.
When the three of them were squeezed out, Queen Mother Guo immediately relaxed and collapsed on the ground. Her eyes were full of tears, but there was a smile on her lips. She wiped her tears and suddenly laughed. That smile The sound is extremely happy.
When the three Guo family members were kicked out, neither Guo Zhi nor Guo Jian reacted.
Only Guo Li still cursed.
"It's all that Zhuzi's fault! It's all that Zhuzi's fault!!"
"How dare you do this? How dare you do this?!"
"The Queen Mother was bewitched by that man, and she actually dared to do this to us?"
"If it weren't for the clan, could she still be so arrogant?!"
Guo Zhi let out a long sigh and said helplessly: "Brother, the Queen Mother is no longer the Queen Mother she used to be. Please stop insulting me."
"Why not? Does she still dare to kill me? If it weren't for us"
"Father!"
Guo Jian couldn't help but said: "When we were arrested for our mistakes, it was because the Empress Dowager pardoned us, including our titles, which were also given by the Empress Dowager. You should not make insults in public."
"Pa~~"
Guo Li raised his hand and slapped him.
"Shuzi!! You are ignorant and ignorant!! What do you know?!"
"If your brother was still here, would our Guo family be like this?"
"It was you who killed your brother!"
"I knew you were jealous of your brother! I didn't know you were so cruel and cruel! This is all your fault! This is all your fault!"
"Why wasn't you the one who died?!"
Guo Jian looked at Guo Li blankly. Guo Zhi grabbed Guo Li and said, "Brother, let's go first. Let's go find the general first."
He dragged the cursing Guo Li away from here, leaving only a lost Guo Jian, standing there blankly.
"His Majesty!!"
"His Majesty?!"
Cao Mao was about to go to bed when someone suddenly shouted. There was a lot of chaos outside the west hall. Cao Mao was startled when he heard the shouts vaguely. He quickly put on his clothes and walked out.
When he reached the door, Cao Mao didn't panic anymore.
Guo Jian was standing outside the door, with two people supporting him. He was already drunk, smelling of alcohol and staggering. Several servants wanted to persuade him to go back, but Guo Jian refused.
"Uncle?! What's going on?"
Cao Mao hurried forward and took the initiative to support him.
Guo Jian staggered and looked at Cao Mao who was supporting him, "No problem, I'm here to come to you, eat delicious food! Eat delicious food!"
"Oh, my uncle is drunk. Someone, please move my uncle into the hall!"
With the help of several soldiers, Cao Mao brought Guo Jian into the house, but Guo Jian held Cao Mao's hand tightly and refused to let go.
"You said that when I was as old as you, I was demoted as a slave, beaten, scolded, and humiliated. Where were my brother and father when they put me in the feudal lord and beat me?"
"Brother can hire the best teachers, seek fame, and socialize with famous people. What about me? I was sent to school and practiced all day long."
"Ever since I was a kid, I just couldn't help but think that he didn't love me as much as his brother, but why did he ever give me a chance?"
"And me"
Guo Jian said and snored slowly.
Cao Mao stood calmly in front of him and sighed.
"If you have something on your mind, you can tell it while you're drunk."
"But what about me"
