Three days later, before dawn, Duan Hekang was already standing outside the emperor's palace with his head bowed.
Seeing Duan Hekang, a young eunuch immediately walked towards him, flattering and respectful: "The general came to see the emperor so early?"
"Annoy the father-in-law and report it." Duan Hekang bowed to him.
"The emperor just took a rest, now wake up the emperor, I'm afraid" The little eunuch looked distressed.
"Eunuch Lao said when the emperor woke up that the Marquis of Dingyuan died of illness in the middle of the night, so that the emperor had a heart to prepare for dealing with the veterans in the early court."
"Yes, the slave has written it down." The little eunuch nodded repeatedly.
Duan Hekang glanced at the palace bedroom, took a few steps closer to the little eunuch, and asked in a low voice: "Does the emperor sleep so late these days and nights?"
The little father-in-law knew that Duan Hekang's power in the court was at its peak, and now that Marquis Dingyuan died again, the position of Marquis would belong to him this morning, so naturally he didn't dare to hide anything from him, so he whispered: "Yes. Master Murong sent the girl to the emperor, these few days are the most favored, the emperor does not want to leave her for even a moment."
Duan Hekang frowned when he heard this, it's not surprising that the courtiers sent a woman to the emperor, at this juncture Murong Tian sent a woman for no reason, I'm afraid there will be some disturbances.
Murong Tian didn't get along with him in the court, but he didn't have any grudges. He is a civil servant and he is a military commander. The two of them don't interfere with each other. What is he going to do at this time? Is it just to compete for favor in front of the emperor?
"What's the origin of that woman?" Duan Hekang thought for a while, it's better to find out.
"Master Murong said that she was the adoptive daughter when he offered it. The slave was careful and investigated. She is a dancer who has been raised by Lord Murong for many years." Much bigger than Murong Tian, ??he was naturally on Duan Hekang's side.
"Okay, that's what I mean to invite my father-in-law to drink tea." Duan Hekang took out a stack of bank notes and stuffed it into the young eunuch's hand, and said, "Please let me know if there is anything about this woman."
"Slave understands." The little eunuch stuffed the silver bill into his sleeve, salivating and smiling.
Duan Hekang glanced at the bedroom door again, turned around and walked down the steps.
When Lu Qiuhe woke up, the little eunuch came in with a washbasin and told him that Duan Hekang had come to report the death of Marquis Dingyuan early in the morning.
Lu Qiuhe opened his sleepy eyes and asked, "You mean Duan Heyi is dead?"
"Yes, it is said that he died of a serious illness in the middle of the night, and he has already gone." The little eunuch took the dragon robe and wanted to put it on for Lu Qiuhe. At this time, a pair of plain hands took the dragon robe from him, and said to him: "Eunuch, Let me do it."
Lu Qiuhe gave the little eunuch a retreating look, the little eunuch could only let go, handed the dragon robe to Xue Ji, and bowed to step back.
Xue Ji flattened the dragon robe and put it on Lu Qiuhe gently. After dressing, she stroked Lu Qiuhe's brow and said softly: "The emperor is troubled, and my concubine will feel distressed."
Lu Qiuhe glanced at the charming Xue Ji, his face softened, and he sighed softly: "It's all about the court."
"The concubines don't understand the affairs of the court, and the concubines can't share the emperor's worries, but you are the emperor, so there is no one in the court who dares to make things difficult for you!" Xue Ji leaned into Lu Qiuhe's arms, her face full of innocence.
Hearing this, Lu Qiuhe shook his head, and smiled helplessly: "Someone really wants to embarrass me, this Hekang is getting more and more greedy!"
"General Duan He? The concubine heard Yifu mention it." Xue Ji let go of Lu Qiuhe's arm.
"Oh? What did your righteous husband say?" Lu Qiuhe knew that Murong Tian and Duan Hekang were not married, but they had no faults. It should be the most intuitive evaluation.
Xue Ji frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Yifu said, General Duanhe is young and promising, versatile in both civil and military affairs, he is a rare pillar of the country, but"
"Just what?" Lu Qiuhe's appetite was whetted.
"The concubine dare not speak." Xue Ji lowered her eyes.
"Why don't you dare to say it, there are only you and me here, and I am the emperor, but it's okay for you to say it, and I forgive you for your innocence." Lu Qiuhe took her hand.
Xue Ji pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yifu said that General Duan He is too greedy for power."
Lu Qiuhe patted Xue Ji's hand, and sighed: "Your righteous husband is right, Duan Hekang's shortcoming is that he loves power too much, and he wishes the whole court would listen to him."
In fact, his heart is like a mirror. Duan Hekang helped him to the throne only for the sake of power. If Lu Qiuen's cronies were Duan Hekang instead of Duan Heye, then he would be the one who helped him to the throne. Chuen.
Duan Hekang and Duan Heyi have been at odds recently, which has long been heard in the court. Duan Heyi was seriously ill before, and there were rumors that it was Duan Heyi.What He Kang did, because he didn't want to be hindered by Duan Heyi, wanted to wipe out all the courtiers who disagreed with him in the court.
Although Duan Heyi was old and healthy, how could he suddenly die of a serious illness? I'm afraid it was Duan Hekang's fault. bit.
Now almost half of Mongolia's 200,000 troops are in the hands of Duan Hekang. Once Duan Heyi dies, his power will become even greater.
Lu Qiuhe had long been worried that the greater the power of Duan Hekang, the weaker the imperial power would be. In this way, he could only be a puppet in the future.
"What is the emperor thinking?" Xue Ji tapped Lu Qiuhe's chest.
"Xue Ji, you are smart and thoughtful, how do you think I should treat He Kang." Lu Qiuhe asked her as he held her in his arms.
"The courtiers and concubines are all clever, how can they be in the hall of elegance, the emperor should not embarrass the courtiers and concubines." Xue Ji pouted.
It has only been a few days since she entered the palace, and Lu Qiuhe has not fully believed her, so it is not appropriate to participate too much in these political discussions now, so as not to arouse suspicion.
Hearing what she said, Lu Qiuhe raised his hand and petted the tip of her nose, and said: "You, you are not only clever, but you just don't want to think too much about it. I like you for this, and other women in the harem. no the same."
"Do you only like this?" Xue Ji pushed Lu Qiuhe away angrily, and turned around pretending to be displeased.
Lu Qiuhe hugged her into his arms, pressed her onto the bed, and said, biting his ear, "Of course I don't know this, and here, here, here."
A pair of big hands fumbled around Xue Ji's body, her mouth wanted to kiss Xue Ji's face, Xue Ji blocked it in time, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, the early court is about to come, and the concubine does not want to be a sinner who makes the king not come early."
Lu Qiuhe looked at the sky, it was indeed getting late, he kissed Xue Ji on the cheek, got up a little disappointed, Xue Ji helped Lu Qiu He straighten his robes, whispered something in Lu Qiu He's ear, He raised his eyebrows happily again, touched Xue Ji's face, and said, "Are you serious?"
Xue Ji nodded, her face was flushed, and Lu Qiuhe loved it even more when she saw it. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
