When Zhao Zheng was served by the Empress and finished washing up, it was already ten in the morning.
After leaving Earth Peace Palace, Feng Zhong quietly followed Zhao Zheng.
"Emperor, the things you ordered have been done. This old servant has sent a few good men to Xiangyang City to look for people. I believe that it will not be long before news comes back.”
Xiangyang City was not far from the capital, which was why Feng Zhong said so.
Zhao Zheng listened to Feng Zhong's report as he walked towards the royal study.
"I asked you to investigate the Eight Internal Prison. Did you get any news?”
"I was just about to tell the Emperor that someone has already confessed. They were ordered to do what they did…" Feng Zhong said.
Hearing this, Zhao Zheng stopped in his tracks.
"Who was involved?"
"The main mastermind behind the scenes is the former imperial concubine Tian Qiuyan. There are also many people who have identified Consort Xian, Consort Shu, Consort Qi, Noble Zhao, Noble Lu, and so on.”Feng Zhong said truthfully.
Instantly, Zhao Zheng's expression turned cold.
He knew that there must be someone behind those servants bullying the Empress, but he didn't expect that so many people would be implicated.
This was almost half of his harem!
Zhao Zheng fell silent.
Feng Zhong lowered his head and waited for the Emperor's decision.
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Zheng still decided to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys and properly clean up the foul atmosphere in the harem.
"Send someone to pass a message to all the concubines. This one will hold a banquet in the imperial kitchen at noon and ask them to come!”
"Emperor, should we inform the Empress?"
Zhao Zheng didn't want to inform the Empress because the banquet at noon was a trap.
However, after thinking about it, he nodded and said,"The Empress is coming too!"
Xiao Yuzhen was kind-hearted and had a weak personality.
With such a personality, it would be fine if she was just a woman from an ordinary family.
However, it was not suitable for the position of the Empress.
As the queen who ruled the world and ruled the harem, it was not a bad thing to be kind, but it was also necessary to be ruthless.
Otherwise, how could he suppress the people below?
Zhao Zheng didn't plan to cripple Xiao Yuzhen, so he naturally hoped that Xiao Yuzhen would change.
"This old servant will remember it." Feng Zhong nodded.
"Is there any movement on Gu Dayou's side?" Zhao Zheng asked again.”
Gu Dayou had just taken over the position of supervisor of the East Chamber. Zhao Zheng was still very concerned because the East Chamber would play a very important role in the next plan.
Feng Zhong praised," Your Majesty, you have a discerning eye. The Gu Dayou chose is a talent. I heard that Eunuch Gu managed to stabilize the East Chamber in just one night. Nothing happened."”
Zhao Zheng was also very satisfied when he heard this news.
Zhao Zheng wasn't surprised by Gu Dayou's ability.
In the original plot, although Gu Dayou was only a minor character who had lived for two episodes, since he dared to jump out and compete with Cao Jin, he naturally had some skills.
……
As the master and servant spoke, they went to the royal study.
To Zhao Zheng's surprise, Gu Dayou was waiting for him at the door of the royal study.
"Emperor, you are here. This old servant pays his respects to the Emperor.”
"Get up!" "Dayou, are you waiting for me?" Zhao Zheng asked.”
"Yes, Emperor."
"Come in and talk." Zhao Zheng nodded.”
He took the lead and walked towards the royal study.
Feng Zhong and Gu Dayou stood at the door at the same time. Gu Dayou was very good at making trouble and quickly said,"Chief Feng, please."
Gu Dayou already knew that the Emperor had given the position of the ceremonial supervisor to Feng Zhong. This meant that in the Emperor's heart, Feng Zhong was the person the Emperor trusted the most.
The smart Gu Dayou knew what he should do.
Feng Zhong shook his head and did not refuse. He followed Zhao Zheng in.
In Feng Zhong's eyes, he did not care about these things. Protecting the Emperor was his mission.
Gu Dayou followed Feng Zhong in.
In the royal study, Zhao Zheng sat down on the main seat and looked at Gu Dayou with a smile."Dayou, looks like you had a hard time last night!”
At this moment, Gu Dayou looked a little haggard. His eyes were red and bloodshot. It was obvious that he hadn't slept all night.
"The Emperor has instructed me to do my best. I dare not let my guard down." Gu Dayou said humbly.”
Zhao Zheng nodded." Speak. Wait at the door of the royal study. What do you have to tell me?"”
Gu Dayou paused for a moment before kneeling on the ground.
"Imperial Lord, last night this old servant acted on my own initiative and spread false news that Cao Cao is dead.”
