The officials retreated. Today's court meeting had left them with a myriad of thoughts, and each of them had a different expression.
As soon as Wei Zhongxian walked out of the hall, he felt a pair of eyes looking at him with ill intentions.
Turning around, it was really that old dog, Gu Xiancheng.
"Lord Gu is looking at me like this. Is there something wrong?”
Gu Xiancheng looked at Wei Zhongxian with a smile on his face. Surrounded by a group of officials, he walked towards Wei Zhongxian.
"Has Lord Wei thought it through? Was he going to be a quiet guard dog at home?”
After Gu Xiancheng finished speaking, the crowd burst into laughter.
Wei Zhongxian snorted coldly and released his aura. A few thin and small officials were directly knocked to the ground.
"Wei Zhongxian, what are you doing? This is the imperial court!”
Gu Xiancheng was shocked. If Wei Zhongxian lost his mind and attacked rashly, he would probably die here.
Humph!
Wei Zhongxian snorted coldly and withdrew his aura.
"Lord Gu, you don't need to be nervous. I am a martial arts practitioner. I accidentally stretched just now.”
Wei Zhongxian looked at the crowd with a sneer in his eyes.
In his opinion, the people in front of him were just a bunch of clowns.
"Hehe, that day I gave Lieutenant Wei a sentence, but he didn't seem to have heard it. Today, this old man will give you another sentence.”
Gu Xiancheng looked at Wei Zhongxian with a smile. He had that disgusting sage-like appearance again.
"Lord Gu, please enlighten me.”
"Hehe, the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind won't stop.”
"Hahaha…"
After Gu Xiancheng finished speaking, he laughed wildly.
Wei Zhongxian laughed even more wildly than him.
"Hahaha…"
Gu Xiancheng was stunned and suddenly stopped laughing. At this time, this castrated dog could still laugh?
"What are you laughing at?"
Gu Xiancheng asked, but Wei Zhongxian laughed even more maniacally.
"What does it have to do with you what I'm laughing at?"
As soon as Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, Gu Xiancheng was stunned. The officials who surrounded him looked at him angrily.
"You…rude brat!"
Gu Xiancheng shouted angrily, and Wei Zhongxian pursed his lips. If it wasn't for the fact that they were in the royal court, he would have slapped him long ago.
"Hehe, if Lord Gu is so free, why don't you go to a brothel or go home and catch up with the women? Perhaps…you can even have a few more sons.”
As soon as Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, Gu Xiancheng was so angry that his entire body trembled. He was a dignified cabinet elder, when had he ever suffered such humiliation!
"Dog Wei, you're too rude. I'll fight you to the death!”
One of Gu Xiancheng's students saw his teacher being humiliated and rushed toward Wei Zhongxian with red eyes.
Bang!
Wei Zhongxian naturally wouldn't let him get away with it, so he kicked him away.
"How dare you beat up an official of the imperial court in public!”
"He bumped into my foot. Are you blind?”
"You…!"
Gu Xiancheng suddenly felt a wave of evil fire spreading in his chest. He waved his hand, signaling the students to shut up.
He couldn't beat her in a fight, and he couldn't talk her out of it, so what was he doing here?
"Let's go back. Don't argue with him.”
With that, Gu Xiancheng left with his men.
Looking at their backs, Wei Zhongxian's lips curled up.
Humph, you came to find trouble with me? You're threatening me?
The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop? Are you blind? Did I say I wanted to calm down?
Wei Zhongxian saw Cao Zhengchun, who had been waiting at the palace gate for a long time. He waved his hand, and Cao Zhengchun immediately ran over.
"Sir, are we going back to the East Chamber?"
Wei Zhongxian sat in the carriage and shook his head.
"Then go to the Inspectorate?"
"No, let's go back to the residence."
Cao Zhengchun was stunned and looked at Wei Zhongxian in confusion.
"Sir, this isn't good. Will we be impeached by someone with ill intentions?”
Wei Zhongxian shook his head.
I was ordered to go back and be grounded. Who dares to impeach me?
"Back to the residence. His Majesty ordered me to be grounded in the residence for a month.”
Cao Zhengchun…
A large number of officials had already gathered in Donglin Academy.
"Hahaha…"
"This time, Wei Zhongxian shot himself in the foot. Without the Red Stamp, he doesn't even have the right to join the Elders 'Meeting.”
Zhou Conglong voiced Gu Xiancheng's thoughts. If it wasn't for the fact that this was the Academy, Gu Xiancheng would have drunk a few cups.
"Elder Zhou, I think we can proceed with the next step of the plan.”
Zhou Conglong nodded, and the two of them smiled at each other. They felt that the spring of the Donglin Party was about to arrive.
And in the rear palace, the Empress Dowager's bedchamber, Zheng Ning Palace.
"Wei Zhongxian has handed over the red lot. What does big brother think of this?
Empress Dowager Li's voice rang out. There were only two people in the large bedroom.
One was naturally the empress dowager, and the other was naturally the brother she was talking about.
This person looked to be in his forties, and his face was thin. The most impressive thing about him was his triangular eyes, which were as vicious as a snake.
With this person's age, many people would believe that he was the Empress Dowager's father.
If Gu Xiancheng saw this person here, he would definitely be shocked.
It was not just because he was the emperor's brother-in-law. He had another identity, and that was the prime minister, Li Zhongzheng!
It was just that there had been rumors that this chief assistant, who was equivalent to the prime minister, had been sick at home for a long time.
Rumors had it that he did not have much time left, but at this moment, he did not look sick at all. Instead, he looked quite imposing.
This was the reason why Gu Xiancheng was shocked. Unfortunately, Gu Xiancheng couldn't see it.
If it was Wei Zhongxian, he wouldn't have made a fuss because the secret that Gao Wei told him was related to this country's brother-in-law.
"He's just trying to protect himself. It seems that I overestimated Wei Zhongxian.”
Li Zhongzheng took a sip of tea and said slowly.
After Empress Dowager Li heard this, she still frowned.
"Brother, look at this."
Empress Dowager Li handed the letter that Wei Zhongxian had given him last night to Li Zhongzheng. Li Zhongzheng took it with interest and put down the tea that he could not bear to part with.
In just a moment, Li Zhongzheng finished reading the letter. He first looked at his sister, the Empress Dowager, in confusion.
From the letter, he did not see any respect from an official to the royal family. Instead, it felt like a letter from home.
Could it be that his empress dowager sister had an affair with Wei Zhongxian?
That's not right. This Wei Zhongxian is a eunuch. The whole world knows this. Am I wrong?
'Hmm, I must have thought wrong. Uh…This handwriting…'
…How ugly!
"What do you think, brother?"
Madam Li spoke again. Of course, she did not know what her brother had suspected. Fortunately, Wei Zhongxian had the identity of a eunuch to cover up.
"Interesting. It seems that Wei Zhongxian is not simple. He actually predicted the Donglin Party's intentions in advance, but why didn't he counterattack?”
Consort Li was stunned. She looked at her brother who was frowning and deep in thought. She personally added some tea for him.
"Brother can't see through his intentions either?”
Li Zhongzheng shook his head. He had a few guesses in his mind, but he felt that it was childish.
