Zheng Qingzhi is looking at Zhao Tai now, the more he looks at it, the more he likes it, and at the same time he feels even more guilty.

"The truth is that I treated Xiao Zhao so much and turned him away several times, yet he helped me like this. I am worse than a beast!"

Zheng Qingzhi didn't know that the person who forced him to go to Liangshan was Zhao Tai. After hearing Zhao Tai's method, he decided to help Zhao Tai.

"Guorui, as long as the true identity remains in Zhongshu, I will help you promote the joint effort to fight against Mongolia!" Zheng Qingzhi said sincerely.

Zhao Tai smiled slightly and said, "Enxiang, you are wrong. This is not helping me, but helping the Song Dynasty so that the court will not make the same mistakes again!"

Zheng Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, then became solemn. Xiao Zhao's political consciousness was not as high as usual, "Guorui, you are right, the truth is not to help anyone, but to save the Song Dynasty!"

As soon as the two said this, the whole thing immediately became noble and meaningful.

Zhao Taidao: "En Xiang! We can put aside the matter of uniting the Jin Dynasty to fight against the Mongolia for now. We must first think about how to deal with the treacherous Prime Minister Shi Miyuan!"

Zheng Qingzhi nodded, feeling a little moved in his heart, "Come, let's make a plan!"

Zhao Taidao: "Please Enxiang, please tell me what happened in the court, and I will analyze it for you!"

Now Zheng Qingzhi was narrating, and Zhao Tai was listening. By the time he finished speaking, Zhao Tai already had a strategy.

"Enxiang!" Zhao Tai cupped his hands and said: "Since Shi Miyuan mobilized hundreds of officials to attack Enxiang and wanted to drive Enxiang out of the court, then Enxiang can..."

Zhao Tai and Zheng Qingzhi discussed for a while and made some plans. After a long night and many dreams, they decided to take action immediately.

The two of them rode in a sedan together and arrived in front of the palace. After getting off the sedan, Zheng Qingzhi said to Zhao Tai who was following him: "After entering the palace, follow the truth and don't make any false hopes!"

The imperial palace of the Song Dynasty was heavily guarded and could not be entered by ordinary people. However, Zheng Qingzhi was different. He was still involved in political affairs and was the deputy prime minister of the court. He could often enter the palace and report work to the officials.

Zhao Tai nodded, "Don't worry, Mr. En, I will remember it! Don't forget to say something, Mr. En, and you must let the officials realize that Shi Miyuan formed a clique for personal gain and deceived the emperor!"

Zheng Qingzhi nodded, then led Zhao Tai to the palace gate and asked the guards to pass the news.

The two of them stood outside, a little anxious in their hearts. Shi Miyuan had many gang members and spies in the palace, which made them a little worried that Shi Miyuan would prevent them from meeting the saint after getting the news.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before the guards came to announce that His Majesty would meet him in the imperial study.

Zheng Qingzhi was involved in political affairs and often went in and out of the palace. After receiving permission, he lifted up his clothes and walked inside. Most of the guards in the palace knew him. No one made trouble along the way, until he reached the outside of the imperial study room where the emperor was.

"Guorui, you wait outside!" Zheng Qingzhi said, straightened his clothes and ordered his servant to report.

Not long after, the chamberlain opened the door and Zheng Qingzhi entered the study. He saw Zhao Yun wearing regular clothes and sitting behind the desk. He quickly saluted and said, "Your Majesty, Zheng Qingzhi, kowtows to you."

The relationship between Chinese monarchs and ministers before the Song Dynasty was "sitting down and talking about Tao". After Song Taizu, it became "standing up and talking about Tao". In the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, it could only be "kneeling down to write notes".

Although the ministers of the Song Dynasty did not have as high a status in front of the emperor as before, they stood most of the time and generally did not need to kneel down.

Zhao Yun was a little surprised when he saw Zheng Qingzhi kneeling down and paying homage. He thought he was doing it for the day, so he immediately smiled and said: "Ai Qing, is it for the things in the court today? It's not really a big deal for the censors to participate in the performance.

, you write a self-defense memorial, you will be fined a few months’ salary, and it will be over.”

Zhao Yun won the throne with the support of Shi Miyuan, Zheng Qingzhi and others. He was very tolerant to those who supported him and would cover up any small mistake as long as it was not a matter of principle.

This is why so many people impeached Shi Miyuan, but they couldn't move him.

Zheng Qingzhi continued to kowtow, "Your Majesty, I came here today to ask for your resignation!"

Zhao Yun was startled, put away his smile and frowned, "Why did Aiqing say this? It's not a big problem to have sex with prostitutes and look at erotic pictures. Many officials have similar situations. Just be careful in the future, Aiqing. Why should you resign?"

official?"

The corners of Zheng Qingzhi's mouth twitched, and he was really speechless.

Zhao Guan's family still misses the old friendship, not to mention that Zheng Qingzhi participated in the support. Such a hero cannot be kicked out of the court because of prostitution.

Zhao Yun's meaning is very obvious. I already know about your prostitution and reading of pornographic books. It is not your problem alone, so I will not dismiss you because of this. You should be careful in the future and don't be caught by the censor.

I will still use you in the future.

Zheng Qingzhi said, "Your Majesty, I don't want to resign, but I have to leave now!"

Zhao Yun frowned, "Why did the Qing family say this?"

Zheng Qingzhi just cried bitterly and bowed his head, "Your Majesty, please let me go back home. This is my only way to survive."

When Zhao Yun heard what he said, his expression became serious, "What do you mean, Aiqing? Is someone trying to harm you?"

Zheng Qingzhi still kowtowed, "I dare not say it, but if I say it, they will not let me go!"

Zhao Yun's face darkened. Zheng Qingzhi was involved in political affairs and was the deputy prime minister of the imperial court, yet he was forced into this position.

After Zhao Yun became emperor, he never managed politics very much, but that didn't mean he didn't care about the affairs of the court. He just felt that the ministers of state could handle it, so he became a hands-off shopkeeper and indulged in pleasure in the palace.

"What's going on!" Zhao Yun became serious, "Explain it to me clearly!"

When Zheng Qingzhi saw the official's tone of command, he stopped and said: "Report to your majesty, because I said a few words for Li Yushi, I offended the prime minister, so the prime minister mobilized his gang to attack me. What happened in the court today,

Your Majesty has also seen that I am alone, and I have never formed a clique. All the officials are looking at the eyes of the Prime Minister, and no one can speak for me! I am really scared now. I can only resign and return home, otherwise they will attack me.

How can I resist this alone!"

What happened during the day also made Zhao Yun feel a little strange. Now after hearing Zheng Qingzhi's words, he couldn't help but feel nervous and said in a deep voice: "What Ai Qing means is that the Prime Minister has a party!"

Zheng Qingzhi raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Shi has party ministers but not party members. In front of him was Wei Liaoweng, who is truly virtuous. Now it's my turn. I seem to be making some remarks today. Your Majesty! Prime Minister Shi does have a party and has power over the government and the public.

Covering the sky with one hand, you dare to deceive even Your Majesty!"

Zhao Yun said with a dark face, "Ai Qing said that, is there any evidence?"

Zhao Yun had always trusted Shi Miyuan very much and could not accept for a while that his most favored minister would form a clique for personal gain and deceive himself.

Zheng Qingzhi said: "Your Majesty, don't talk about the far away, just talk about the near. In order to unite with Mongolia, the Prime Minister concealed the Jin Kingdom's envoy from Your Majesty. It had already arrived in Chuzhou! I thought the imperial court was uniting with Mongolia or Jin.

Your Majesty should make the decision. As a minister, you only need to report the situation to Your Majesty and make suggestions for His Majesty's reference. It is absolutely not for you to make your own decisions or conceal information in order to achieve your own goals!"
