Cao Jin was an expert.
According to the original plot, Cao Jin's kung fu was second only to Feng Zhong's among the many experts in the palace.
In the original plot, Feng Zhong died protecting the fatuous emperor. It was because Cao Jin had ambushed him beforehand and injured him, causing him to die under the siege of many experts.
If Zhao Zheng wanted to kill Cao Jin, he had to be prepared in case Cao Jin retaliated before he died.
Only after Cao Jin was taken care of and the East Chamber was completely under his control could Zhao Zheng begin to clean up the court and deal with the treacherous official Li Yan.
These things needed to be done step by step.
As for the original protagonist, although Zhao Zheng valued it, he wasn't too worried.
The main character was probably still developing.
As long as the country was not in chaos and he was not given the opportunity to develop, it would not be difficult to deal with this " protagonist ".
When Zhao Zheng completely took control of the imperial court, he would have at least a hundred ways to play with this 'destined person'!
Slowly.
A plan formed in Zhao Zheng's mind!
……
Zhao Zheng's worries were right.
After leaving the palace, Cao Jin did not go straight to the execution ground. Instead, he went to the Prime Minister's residence. Li Mansion!
"What brings Eunuch Wang here?”
Li Yan came out to welcome Cao Jin personally.
Li Yan was about fifty years old, about the same age as Cao Jin. He had a handsome face, thick eyebrows, and a beard that reached his stomach. He looked quite righteous.
It was impossible to tell just by looking at his appearance that this guy was the biggest corrupt official in the imperial court. The wealth he controlled was even more than the national treasury.
Seeing Li Yan, Cao Jin hurriedly said,""Mr. Li, I have something urgent to tell you.”
"Oh? Eunuch, this way please."
Hearing Cao Jin's words, Li Yan did not dare to delay. He immediately invited Cao Jin to the study and blocked the servants.
When there were only the two of them left in the study, Cao Jin said,""Mr. Li, when I left the palace, the emperor gave me an edict.”
"I wonder what decree it is? He actually had to trouble Eunuch Cao to come personally?”
"The emperor wants us to go to the execution ground to stop the execution and protect Yu Qian!”
Hearing this, Li Yan was shocked.
Slowly, Li Yan's expression turned cold.
The Emperor's decree made him instinctively feel uneasy.
"Eunuch Cao, why would the Emperor issue such an edict?”
Cao Jin frowned and said," This is also what I'm puzzled about. A few days ago, the Emperor was fine. Today, it's as if he's a different person. Not only did he order the death of the most beloved Noble Consort Tian, but he also started a massacre in the palace!”
"A massacre in the palace?"
Li Yan was stunned.
Li Yan already knew that the Tian Family had been captured this morning, causing a huge commotion.
However, Li Yan had only just heard of the Emperor's massacre.
Li Yan couldn't help but ask,"Who did the Emperor kill?"”
Although the previous fatuous ruler had killed people, he definitely did not have such a strong killing intent.
"You're all a bunch of shallow dog slaves!”
Cao Jin sneered, as if he was gloating over the Eighth Internal Warden's misfortune.
He had forgotten that he was also someone else's dog slave!
Then, Cao Jin continued," In the past, the Emperor never treated the Empress well. But today, I heard that the Emperor and Empress are very loving! This is really strange…"
The two of them had long been colluding with each other and had the same interests. There was no need to beat around the bush when talking.
Li Yan frowned and asked,"Is there someone gossiping around the Emperor?"”
Cao Jin shook his head and said," I don't think so. I know who the Emperor has met these past two days. If someone really talks nonsense, I think only the Empress can do it!"”
It could be seen from these words that Cao Jin's control over the Imperial Palace was so great that even the Emperor's every move was extremely clear.
Li Yan pondered for a moment and didn't continue.
He was thinking about the Emperor's intention in issuing this order.
Seeing that Li Yan did not speak, Cao Jin became anxious.
After all, he was the one who was ordered to do things. If he did not do his job well, the emperor would definitely scold him.
Although Cao Jin was currently in power, he did not want to have a bad impression of him in front of the Emperor.
"Mr. Li, you should make a decision. The emperor is still waiting for us to report back!”
Li Yan thought for a moment and smiled,""Eunuch Cao, don't be anxious. Sit in my room for a while and drink a cup of hot tea. It's equivalent to Yu Qian's head being beheaded. Just take Yu Qian's head and report to the emperor.”
"Mr. Li, you make it sound so simple!”"I'm the one reporting to the Emperor, so the one being punished is naturally my family!" Cao Jin said unhappily.”
Li Yan stroked his beard and said with a smile,""Eunuch Cao, Yu Qian's life is not good for either of us. Eunuch Cao, you wouldn't have forgotten the charges Yu Qian had previously impeached you for, right?”
These words seemed to have stung Cao Jin, causing him to grit his teeth and say,"Old Thief Yu, you only have yourself to blame for ending up like this!”
"Therefore, Yu Qian must die!"
Li Yan added with a smile.
Cao Jin glanced at Li Yan." Of course I hope that the old thief will die cleanly. But how can I report to the Emperor?"”
Regarding this question, Li Yan was extremely fierce.
