Chapter 400: House arrest Zhang Ru

"What should I do with the Great Wei delegation? I just keep holding on? That Xiahou Qing was about to enter the palace again and again."

When King Ling thought of Xiahou Qing, he gritted his teeth in anger.

At this moment, Emperor Zhou finally smiled on his face, "Wei'er and Xiao'er have found Awan back."

"Really? Are you back?" King Ling said in surprise. He finally heard good news these days.

"Gao Han has already gone to pick him up and will be back soon. Look at Awan's situation. If there is no serious problem, choose an auspicious day for the marriage delegation to set off." Emperor Zhou nodded.

King Ling clapped his hands and shouted, "What auspicious day should you choose? As long as Princess Zhaoyang comes back, it will be auspicious day every day."

Emperor Zhou disagreed, "It's already aggrieved Awan, she can't be careless when she gets married."

After saying that, Emperor Zhou looked tired, King Ling quickly stood up when he saw it, "My brother has errands tomorrow, so I won't be able to rest in the palace today, so as not to disturb the emperor's brother tomorrow morning."

Emperor Zhou nodded, and King Ling bowed and left.

When his figure disappeared, Emperor Zhou slowly stood up and left Xianyang Palace through the back door.

In a dark dark room, there was only a dim oil lamp struggling dyingly. The dark room was silent. If it weren't for the fact that there was a person lying on the wooden couch in the innermost part, the man's chest was still slowly rising and falling, he would probably think that this was a dead person.

Soon, a sudden sound appeared in the dark room, and the door of the dark room was slowly opened, and then a man who was not too burly but a little thin came in.

The man walked in slowly, stopped not far from the wooden couch, and did not speak but looked at the person on the couch quietly.

After a while, the person on the wooden couch finally made a move. He turned over with some difficulty, then supported his upper body with both hands and looked over. He squinted his eyes and looked at it a few times, and suddenly laughed, "It's really because His Majesty is reluctant to let go of the old minister and die."

"Hmph, how many times have you done to die?" Emperor Zhou stood there and asked quietly with a little curiosity, "I'm really curious, aren't you afraid of going to the tongue-pulling hell after death?"

The person lying on the couch was naturally the national teacher Zhang Ru. He was not angry at all when Emperor Zhou was so sarcastic. Instead, he smiled and said, "I'm afraid of going to hell. That's why I have to try my best to live forever and hope that Your Majesty will fulfill it. This is what Your Majesty wants, right?"

When Emperor Zhou heard him say this, his thin body trembled a little. He walked quickly to Zhang Ru, grabbed Zhang Ru's clothes with his thin hands and said coldly: "I am different from you. I just want to live longer. When the prince grows up, he will give him the Great Zhou steadily. What you want is the foundation of Great Zhou."

"I have given you everything I can give you, but no one can move the base of the Great Zhou vein! This is my bottom line!" Emperor Zhou said firmly.

"Haha, Your Majesty is worthy of being a member of the Yue family, and he is really stingy. He just throws out a position of national teacher who is isolated from the court without any real power and wants to get the secret of longevity. There is no such cheap deal in the world." Zhang Ru couldn't help laughing. Although he was imprisoned, he didn't seem to be in a hurry.

"Is it just the position of the national tutor? Do you really think I don't know what I did with my back? I secretly attracted court officials, secretly colluded with the Great Wei missions, and the children you kidnapped were not only those destroyed by Xun and Princess Danyang! If it weren't for my secret protection, your nest would have been taken away by them long ago." Emperor Zhou had a disgust in his eyes. If this old fox had something he urgently needed, he would have wished to throw this sinful guy on the street and let the people who were harmed by him take off their skin, cramps and sticks to death.

Thinking of this, Emperor Zhou seemed a little happy. He thought of a good ending for the national teacher, and only in this way can his sins be relieved.

"Their memorial will be presented tomorrow morning. The mountain villas in the suburbs of Beijing are as strong as a mountain. I can only deprive you of the position of national teacher. If you flee for fear of crime, I will order you to be wanted. From tomorrow on, you will be a holiday rat that everyone calls for. From now on, you will have to stay here and do what you should do."

Emperor Zhou finally warned and prepared to leave. He had to rush to sleep before dawn, otherwise his weak body would not be able to hold on.

Zhang Ru changed into a comfortable position on the couch, looked at Emperor Zhou's back with some satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Then I have to think about it carefully, how can I always be valuable so as not to be cooked by a cunning rabbit and a lackey!"

Emperor Zhou ignored his nonsense and walked straight out of the dark room, but Zhang Ru's low and cold voice came from behind, "Your Majesty, I am asking for immortality, and what I am asking for is the order, but in fact they all end up with the same destination. Isn't your Majesty curious about what my immortality skills are?"

Emperor Zhou was shocked when he heard this, and his steps stopped and left quickly.

He walked far away and seemed to hear Zhang Ru's cold laughter, and his back was already wet.

When Emperor Zhou returned to Xianyang Palace, Gao Han had already returned and was in a hurry to go around. When he saw him, he hurriedly met him and supported him, he said worriedly: "Your Majesty, where are you going? Your clothes are wet. The old slave has already taken Princess Zhaoyang back to the palace and sent it to the Empress, don't worry!"

"It's so boring. Let's take a break from going out for a walk. Let Awan have a good rest. I will go to the queen's place to see her tomorrow." Emperor Zhou explained tiredly.

Gao Han helped him into the bedroom and ordered the eunuch to prepare for changing clothes and washing clothes.

After changing into a refreshing underwear, Emperor Zhou lay on the couch and was exhausted for a day. After closing his eyes, he fell asleep quickly. However, Emperor Zhou frowned in his sleep, looking very painful, as if he was trapped in a nightmare.

Gao Han gently wiped Emperor Zhou's sweat, and then gently woke him up, "Your Majesty, you have been trapped by nightmare, drink a sip of hot water to calm down!"

Emperor Zhou drank hot water and looked a little relaxed. He lay on the couch and was stunned. Gao Han felt that Emperor Zhou had been a little strange since he came back at night, but based on his years of understanding of him, Gao Han did not ask much.

"Does Doctor Luo send a letter? When will he come back?"

Gao Han handed the white porcelain bowl to the small inner supervisor who was serving aside, and heard Emperor Zhou’s inquiry.

He smiled and replied, "Your Majesty, Doctor Luo has a letter delivered this afternoon, saying that he will be back in half a month. Including the news on the road, it will be around three or four days."

When Emperor Zhou heard this, his expression on his face calmed down a lot, "When is it?"

"It's still one and a half hours before you go to court. Please sleep for a while!" Gao Han gently fanned him to evacuate the irritability in Emperor Zhou.

Emperor Zhou felt more comfortable, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

At the beginning of the next day, the heads of various gentry families brought their chosen scholars outside the Xianyang Palace.

Mr. Liu was busy ascending the throne to the throne and making a book of grains sent by each family, and was busy sending people to deliver some of the grains to various grain shops and letting them sell them to the people as usual.

Emperor Zhou sat on it with an unpredictable expression, watching the court officials below discussing it, and there was a lot of dispute over Emperor Zhou's practice of exchanging official positions for food from various families.

The biggest controversy among the opposition factions is how to assign official positions to these scholars from various families. After all, these people just bought tickets for entry with food.

From a short time, Your Majesty is doing a bit rogue in this business. In the long run, it depends on the competition between Your Majesty and the various gentry.
