The tenderness on the empress's face disappeared, replaced by coldness.
She sneered, "Zhao An, I know you are a smart person and I know what you want."
"If you are willing to be a grasshopper on a rope with me, I will not treat you poorly."
"After finishing dealing with the big families, how about I promise that you are inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people?"
Below one person, above ten thousand people, the empress said these words eloquently.
Zhao An... was shamefully moved!
Everyone's surname is Zhao, and Zhao Gao is doing so well, so he can't hold back the Zhao family.
"Your Majesty, you are talking nonsense, do you have to give me some protection?" Zhao An said scornfully, licking his face.
The empress raised her eyebrows, and he continued to add, "Such as rights, oral instructions, imperial edicts, etc."
The empress curled her lips and said, "You can't bear any loss."
If anyone else had heard that one person was inferior to ten thousand people, they would have been distraught, but Zhao An actually had the guts to negotiate terms with her.
This person's courage is indeed extraordinary!
The empress raised her eyebrows when she heard this, stood up and walked to the bookshelf. She clicked somewhere and a dark pavilion popped up.
She took out a blank imperial edict from it, sat back at the imperial desk, and started writing.
Zhao An's eyes followed the tip of the Empress's pen, and when she finished the last stroke, she exclaimed excitedly, "The Emperor is domineering!"
It is written in the imperial edict that in addition to the promise that one person can be subordinate to ten thousand people, there are also a number of fertile fields and countless gold and silver treasures.
The empress stamped the imperial edict with a jade seal, "So, Eunuch Zhao, can you rest assured?"
Zhao An nodded his head like garlic and took the imperial edict with both hands, the corners of his mouth raised in an arc that he could not suppress.
"Don't worry, I'm keeping my heart in my stomach now. I'm safe." He said charmingly.
From now on, he, Zhao An, will be the old slave of the Empress, and he will look after her!
There was no way, she gave too much.
The empress nodded slightly and unfolded a memorial on the table, which contained information about major officials in the capital.
It can be as big as who you have a close personal relationship with, or as small as how many times you go out to court each day.
Looking at these contents, Zhao An couldn't help but feel frightened.
Darling, those black feather guards are so perverted that they even watch people going to the toilet.
Tsk, I don’t know if it’s a good mouthful.
Suddenly, Zhao An's heart skipped a beat, wondering if the empress had sent someone to monitor him.
Is Pi Yan's innocence still there?
Seeing that Zhao An's face was serious and somewhat awe-inspiring, the empress knew that she had achieved her goal.
Letting him see these things is a side warning to him that if he dares to have any different intentions, he will be caught by the Black Feather Guards.
What greeted him then was death by a thousand cuts.
"Eunuch Zhao, in your opinion, Chen Guogong's family is now the dominant one in the court. How can this situation be solved?" The empress asked casually, looking for a reason.
Zhao An was worried that Pi Yan would be pulled back from his thoughts, so he pointed at a name with his finger.
He said, "Taiwei Liu Nan, it says above that he and Chen Guogong have different ideas, and they often have conflicts."
"His daughter, Concubine Shu, Liu Ruyu, is also at odds with the queen in the harem."
Then, Zhao An pointed at another name.
"Wang Chang, who is in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, has a close personal relationship with the Taiwei. I personally think that the emperor could reuse the two of them in the previous dynasty and gradually deepen the relationship between them and Chen Guogong."
"And me." Zhao An raised an evil smile on his lips.
"On the one hand, he is responsible for balancing the harem, hanging on to the empress, and favoring Concubine Shu and the queen beauty Wang Changzhi. On the other hand, he is responsible for collecting evidence for your majesty that the Chen family intends to rebel."
I don't believe Chen Guogong can withstand such a double attack from the front and the harem.
Now that the cooperative relationship has been confirmed, Zhao An did not hide his secrets at all when making suggestions.
The empress had no expectations for him at first, but now her beautiful eyes lit up.
"Wonderful!" she praised.
"What are your plans for Old Prince Qian'an?" the empress asked in a deep voice.
Thinking of the main tasks he needed to deal with, Zhao An looked serious and put his hand on his chin to rub it.
"Hit the east and attack the west, and attack the cattle across the mountains, leaving them confused." He said mysteriously.
The empress nodded with interest, "Tell me in detail."
Zhao An didn't bother to talk, so he directly took a piece of clean rice paper, picked up a brush and wrote on the paper.
After a moment, the precise plan appeared on the paper, and the empress nodded repeatedly.
"This is a wonderful plan, you should be rewarded!" she said loudly.
Zhao An beat the snake and crawled along the pole, "Then what reward does the emperor plan to give to this slave?"
Just kidding, if there is a reward, of course you should take it immediately. No one will dislike the fact that they have a lot of money.
The empress glared at him coldly and said, "Huang Zhong."
Upon hearing the summons, Huang Zhong immediately ran towards the inner hall with small steps.
Seeing Zhao An sitting carelessly opposite the emperor, he gasped in shock, and then quickly lowered his head.
"Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and send a box of gold to Eunuch Zhao's residence," the empress said.
Huang Zhong responded quickly, not daring to raise his head, and went to do things without stopping.
At the same time, he had many speculations in his mind.
No wonder Eunuch Zhao wants to inquire about the information. It must be the emperor's private request. It seems that Zhao An is already the emperor's confidant.
After thinking about it a thousand times, Huang Zhong decided that he had to work hard to find out more information.
Maybe the emperor will look upon him favorably because of this!
Thinking of Zhao An sitting next to the emperor, Huang Zhong was even more sure that he was on the right ship!
The emperor's inner palace.
Zhao An yawned and said, "Your Majesty, I am tired after all the hard work during the day and have to work hard at night. Can you lie down on the soft couch for a while?"
This attitude is as casual as if you were at home.
The empress didn't know what he was doing in the Queen's Palace, she just thought he was talking about her and him in the inner palace.
"You can go and rest yourself without informing me." She said angrily, quite annoyed.
Zhao An felt confused, raised his eyebrows and glanced at her before going to the soft couch.
Sure enough, women all over the world are emotionally unstable.
No matter what the identity or status is, it is the same.
Zhao An fell into a deep sleep, the empress spoke softly, and a black feather guard appeared in the inner hall like a ghost.
"Send this letter to Old Prince Qian'an as quickly as possible and ask him to do what it says in the letter." She whispered.
The secret guard took the letter, nodded without squinting, and disappeared again.
The empress returned to the table to write, but she felt uneasy.
She turned to look at Zhao An, who was sleeping soundly. This man's scheming and foresight were beyond the reach of ordinary people.
In this way, you can use this person for your own use without becoming a trouble later...
