In fact, on the seventh day of August, the people summoned into the inner city were not only Mu Wudai and He Zheng, but also Prime Minister Meng Yuanting, Zhuguo Shenwu General Zhongliying, Zhijinwu Musui, Dali Temple Shaoqing Qin Jingzhe, Zhou Xiaohan, commander of the Imperial City Department, and Ji Junzheng, minister of the Ministry of War.
Except for Mu Wudai, who has no title or title, most of these people are humerus that Emperor Wu De has used or cultivated since the war. Now they all have real power. When encountering major events, he will often listen to the opinions of these people before making a holy judgment.
However, it was the first time in more than half a year since the founding of the dynasty that all these people were gathered together in a grand ceremony.
What is even more surprising is that in addition to these people, Zhao Yi'an, the minister of Zongzheng Temple who was in charge of royal clan affairs, and Zhao Chengrui, the half-brother of Emperor Wude and Prince of Changxin County, were also summoned into the inner city.
Qing Zongzhengsi is Zhao Yi'an's official position. She also has the identity of being Emperor Wude's half-sister. After the founding of the Great Zhou dynasty, Emperor Wude named her Princess Changqing.
The Minister of Zongzheng Temple appointed by Zhao Yi'an only took care of the affairs related to the royal clan and basically had no involvement in the power of the government. Zhao Chengrui, the prince of Changxin County, was an idle prince. Not only did he not hold any official position, he even had less than a thousand soldiers.
These two royal family members, who were almost on the edge of the court situation, were also included in the meeting today. However, Princess Zhao Xu of Fenyang, who assisted in the affairs of the country, and Prince Cheng Zhao Ang, who was also in the capital, did not obey the imperial edict. This is very intriguing.

When the queen entered the Qinzheng Hall and saw clearly who was standing inside, she was only slightly surprised for a moment, and then slowly revealed a slightly weird and dazed smile.
Everyone saluted her, but they all remained silent and lowered their eyes.
The scene was so strange, but the queen seemed not to notice it, and just turned her eyes to Emperor Wu De on the main seat.
According to the rule of "co-governance by the emperor and the empress", even if she never really took power, her status with Emperor Wude was still equal on the surface, and she did not have to salute him like a concubine.
She walked in front of everyone in a dignified manner and slowly stepped onto the small jade steps.
The small jade steps of the Qinzheng Hall are only five levels, and are covered with a blue brocade velvet carpet. The pattern is the outline of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.
Her steps as she climbed the stairs were extremely slow and light. The thick velvet blanket muffled the sound of her footsteps. The silence in the hall made her movements even more bizarre.
From beginning to end, she seemed to be in a deserted place, her eyes always focused on the person sitting on the seat.
There was a smile in her narrow phoenix eyes. What she stepped on was the outline of the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and what was reflected in her eyes was the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
When she reached the fifth level, she glanced at Emperor Wu De with a smile as usual, walked around the imperial desk, and sat down beside him but half an arm's length away.
"My dear friends, no courtesy." She looked down the jade steps, as if she saw everyone in the palace still holding courtesies to her.
She has already guessed what will be discussed in today's discussion, but no matter what the final result is, at least at this moment, she is still Her Majesty the Queen who is as respected as Emperor Wude.
She is still Zhao Chengming¡¯s first wife when he was young.

Emperor Wu De looked at Mu Wudai calmly: "Let's start from the night of the battle across the river."
After the fall of the previous dynasty, the Shuonan Palace spent nearly thirty years confronting the puppet Sheng Dynasty across the river while integrating the forces of the Jiangyou states, and tried their best to revive the people's livelihood in Jiangyou amidst the uninterrupted war. Finally, last winter, Launched the final general offensive against crossing the Yingjiang River.
The forced crossing of the Yingjiang River was the most important battle in the battle to restore the country.
But in that battle, Mu Wudai, the governor of Lizhou who made great contributions to the restoration of the country, was stained with the stain of "cowardice and flight" because he "privately transferred troops and changed their routes before the battle."
The source of this incident was that someone pretended to be an Anbu soldier of the Mu family and delivered false news to him that Xunhua City had been destroyed and that his daughter had died in the battle at Jinfeng Mountain and her body was hung at the Xunhua City Gate.
"So I ordered to abandon the defense area without authorization, break camp and rush to Lizhou Road," Mu Wudai stood with his head held high and said calmly, "At that time, Mu Qingyan and Jing Huiyi led troops to set up defenses on the left and right of my defense area. I gave the order After we broke camp, we sent people separately to inform him and the two of them to replenish the formation."
Since the incident happened last winter, he has never denied his selfishness or fault in this matter no matter when he was questioned.
As a young military veteran, he clearly understands what it means to have a mountain of military orders, and also knows how much hidden dangers privately abandoning the defense zone may cause to the entire counterattack plan. So after the incident, he bore the consequences of his mistake.
But in this matter, although he had unavoidable faults, he also had the grievances of being calculated.
Veteran Zhong Liying, who was specially allowed to sit on the chair, stood up and said fairly: "According to the situation at the time, in fact, it was not entirely safe for Mu Wudai to make such a decision."He quickly straightened up and followed his father up the steps obediently.
Mu Wudai asked someone to bring tea to the main hall, as if he wanted to "have a long conversation." But until the tea cup in Mu Qingshuang's hand had turned warm, the old father on the main seat was still drinking tea in a daze with troubled eyes and said nothing.
Mu Qingshuang was a little anxious: "Dad!"
"Is your eldest brother back from his vacation?" Mu Wudai woke up from a dream, looked at the impatient daughter sitting down, and smiled, "Have someone call your eldest brother and sister-in-law too, so that I don't have to say the same thing twice. .¡±

Mu Qingyan, who had returned home from duty, had not even had time to change into his official robe, so he hurried to the main hall with his wife Xiang Yun.
When the couple arrived, Mu Wudai ordered the maids and servants in the hall, as well as the two guards outside, to retreat, leaving only the family of four talking secretly in the main hall.
After Mu Wudai explained in detail what happened in Qinzheng Hall today, the three young people were all a little dumbfounded.
"But, how do you explain the topographic map of the Red Shirt and Jinfengtai Ancient Road that that person gave to dad, and the fact that he made our ANBU soldier uniforms?" Mu Qingyan frowned, confused, "Then Empress Shi has never seen Xuan'er, so she shouldn't know what kind of clothes she is used to wearing; she is even less likely to have seen our ANBU soldiers, how did that person learn how to dress? The most important thing is, Jinfengtai Ancient Road"
Before the Mu family handed over the military and political power of Lizhou and the Anbu government troops to Zhao Ying, the princess of Jiayang, few natives of Lizhou knew about the existence of the Jinfengtai Ancient Road. It couldn't be that the Mu family was rebellious, right?
Mu Wudai opened his mouth to explain, but Mu Qingshuang suddenly stood up, her face turned pale, and she accidentally knocked over the tea cup at hand.
"I know, it's Zhao Min" The warm tea dripped along the table, wetting her sleeves and soaking into the hem of her skirt, but she just looked up at her father with red, tearful eyes. , with a trembling cry, "Dad, the Jinfengtai Ancient Road on that topographic map is the section near Heshan, right?"
Mu Wudai pursed his lips silently and lowered his eyes in silence.
Mu Qingshuang has a temperament in many things. In the past six months, she has never thought of asking her father for the broken terrain map to take a closer look.
It wasn¡¯t until this moment that she had an enlightenment.
Her tears fell one after another, and she could no longer face her father, brother and sister-in-law, and ran out of the house amidst everyone's exclamations.
When he was about to arrive at General Yingyang's mansion, he happened to meet He Zheng who was going home to change his clothes and planned to go to Mu's house.
He Zheng was shocked when he saw this and hurried forward to greet him: "Xuan'er, you"
Mu Qingshuang threw herself into his arms, like a child who had done something wrong, and cried bitterly in his clothes until she sobbed.
"It's me, it's all me"
When she was fifteen years old, during the audition in Heshan, she was dissatisfied with what Zhao Min had done to her classmates, so she used a bone whistle to summon a general from the ANBU soldiers to ask for the "Soul-killing Grass". He also took his classmates along the Jinfengtai Ancient Road to spend the night by the river, and finally used the ANBU soldiers' horses.
She had forgotten that there were many scouts and spies lurking around during the entire exam for the general.
At that time, she was not General Mu. She had not experienced actual combat and was not fully integrated with the mountains and forests. She was not aware of the tail and eyes behind her at all.
Presumably someone from Zhao Min followed her and saw everything, so a few years later, the queen and Zhao Min were able to accurately set a trap on her father at the best time.
¡°Because she was arrogant and careless, and she rashly clashed with Zhao Min and made him grudge without fully considering everything, which made him hold a grudge, which led to all the things that happened to the Mu family later.
For her youth and frivolity, the entire Mu family paid the price.
She is the one who leads the Mu family into decline. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
