After I traveled through the book, my sister kidnapped my mother
Chapter 541 Source
Shi Guanchao watched for a while inside and saw that Shi Wanyue and Lu Jiaoyue were still doing their best to treat them. There was nothing Shi Guanchao could do inside, so he came out soon.
She saw Wen Zhimiao sitting there with the latest news from the Supervisory Office in front of him.
Shi Guanchao did not look, but bowed slightly to Wen Zhimiao: "Your Majesty."
"Teacher." Wen Zhimiao saw that she still felt a little guilty, so she made a gesture to Shi Guanchao to ask her to sit down.
"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and there are many people with ill intentions. If Your Majesty loses his composure at this moment, that would be exactly what they want." Shi Guanchao sat down opposite her and said softly.
Wen Zhimiao smiled and shook his head: "Teacher, don't worry too much, I understand."
"You want to use my sister to test me? I can only say that you have made a wrong calculation." Wen Zhimiao took a sip of tea, his eyes slightly cold.
"Have you found any suspicious people?" asked Shi Guanchao.
"The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the Minister of the Imperial Household, the Supervisor of the Ministry of Finance, and several provincial governors." Wen Zhimiao sneered, "They are all very impatient. How long have I been on the throne?"
"If Your Majesty takes a little longer to ascend the throne, they will really have no chance. If they want to gain benefits for themselves, they can only act when Your Majesty's foundation is not so stable, forcing Your Majesty to give in. When Your Majesty is regent, there is pressure from the Emperor Emeritus, so they dare not act rashly."
"I understand. After all, most of the generals in Tianqi were supported by my mother. Now that I have just taken the throne, although I have been the regent for a few years, some of the nobles still think that my foundation is unstable and they will take advantage of the situation. It is very likely that they will join forces with Beirong to stage a drama."
"That's right." Shi Guanchao said softly.
Wen Zhimiao laughed and said, "It's not surprising. There are a lot of such things in history books. Most of them are about people's hearts being unsettled when a new emperor ascends the throne."
She propped her chin with one hand and said, "I am too easy to talk to. I originally wanted to take it slow. If you insist on doing this, don't blame me for being rude."
Shi Guanchao put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Your Majesty is not to blame for this. Your Majesty's previous strategy was not wrong. It was just that they were too anxious and panicked."
Wen Zhimiao clenched his hands unconsciously: "I still need the teacher's help."
Shi Guanchao looked at the young emperor's trusting eyes and stood up and bowed to Wen Zhimiao again: "I will do my best to assist Your Majesty."
The emperor and his ministers sat opposite each other and no one left, but many people in Yunjing City were destined to have trouble sleeping tonight.
News from the Overwatch Council came from time to time, and the city defense troops were constantly on the move.
Wen Zhimiao and Shi Guanchao just waited there, neither of them left.
It was not until dawn that news came from the Supervisory Council that all the assassins in the city had been cleared out. Two ministers had been in trouble. The Minister of Revenue was seriously injured, and the other was the Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture who was assassinated directly at home.
"Have you found the source of the gunpowder?" It is impossible for the gunpowder to be transported in from outside Yunjing City. It would be too difficult for such a large amount of gunpowder to pass through layers of inspection and enter Yunjing.
"We have found out that it came from a saltpeter factory, and that saltpeter factory was run by someone from the Cui family, who happened to be the nephew of Cui Hang, the governor of Yuanzai County." After everything was over, Qi Guyu came in person to report the situation.
"The Cui family." Wen Zhimiao casually played with the dagger in his hand: "Very bold."
"In the first few years after the Supreme Emperor ascended the throne, the former head of the Cui family quickly surrendered, and he was relatively honest before that." Qi Guyu said softly.
"Because it was profitable at that time, and people made a fortune quietly, so they were naturally honest. Now that new waterways have appeared, and the construction of new ships supported by me has made progress, the Cui family, who made their fortune from the canal transportation, has suddenly lost a lot of money, so they are naturally unhappy." Wen Zhimiao sneered.
"People's hearts are lacking."
"He is just a scapegoat. It is impossible for the Cui family alone to be so courageous." Shi Guanchao said in a low voice.
"The Supervisory Council must conduct a thorough investigation of this matter, and the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice must cooperate. The Prime Minister will temporarily take charge of all court affairs." Wen Zhimiao looked at the two of them and said in a cold voice.
Shi Guanchao looked at her, also somewhat surprised: "Your Majesty?"
"Since my sister is not awake, I really have no interest in state affairs." After Wen Zhimiao said this, Shi Guanchao and Qi Guyu understood what she meant and stopped asking questions.
Wen Zhimiao looked towards the inner room, worry evident in his eyes.
Qi Guyu took the order and left again. Shi Guanchao was really worried that Shi Wanyue and Lu Jiaoyue would not come out, so she didn't feel at ease to leave.
It was not until dawn that Lu Jiaoyue finally came out.
She looked a little tired, but when she saw Wen Zhimiao and Shi Guanchao, she perked up and told them about Shi Wanyue's situation.
"It's all right for now. The poison has been suppressed and can be cured, but it requires a medicine. I have sent someone to the Northern Imperial Hospital branch to get the medicine overnight. This medicine has harsh growing conditions and cannot be grown in Yunjing. It must be delivered within three days. Your Majesty, can you send someone to escort it?"
"allow."
"In addition, the teacher has a head injury. I suspect there may be blood bruises. I am not sure of the situation yet. I can only observe him for a while."
Wen Zhimiao's face changed when he heard this: "Isn't that serious?"
"The preliminary diagnosis is that the situation is not life-threatening. We need to wait until Master's condition stabilizes before we can conduct further investigation. I will order people to stay here." Wen Zhimiao would not question Lu Jiaoyue's medical skills. In this era, she was already a very authoritative person.
"it is good."
"Your Majesty and the Prime Minister can go in to visit, but Master is still unconscious." Lu Jiaoyue said softly.
Wen Zhimiao asked Shi Guanchao to go in and take a look first. She was worried about Shi Wanyue, but she also understood that Shi Guanchao was worried as well.
After Shi Guanchao entered the inner room, Wen Zhimiao asked Xiangnan, "How is the guard situation at the Imperial Hospital?"
"Lord Chuan is still in poor condition. Some of the other guards are no longer in danger, but..."
"Nearly half of them died because they were too close to the fire explosion point." Xiangnan's voice was also a little heavy.
"Order people to bury those guards properly and provide pensions to their families." Wen Zhimiao said in a deep voice.
Her mood was still heavy at the moment. After giving the order, she waited silently outside the door for Master Guanchao to come out.
Logically speaking, she could have gone in directly, but he was the emperor, and Shi Guanchao was not Shi Wanyue. For Shi Guanchao, the relationship between them was that of monarch and subject first, followed by teacher and student, and then the mother of her beloved.
She was somewhat restrained in front of Shi Guanchao. A mother has to care about her daughter while also considering her having Shi Wanyue by her side. Wen Zhimiao didn't want to add pressure to her, even though she was eager to see Shi Wanyue at this moment.
After waiting for a long time, Shi Guanchao finally came out. Looking at Wen Zhimiao waiting outside, he felt warm in his heart.
It is said that emperors are ruthless, but she met two affectionate emperors.
Master Guanchao could sense Wen Zhimiao's attentiveness, and he could also sense her care for Master Wanyue.
"I know that Your Majesty cares about Wanyue, but you must also take care of your own health." Shi Guanchao said gently.
She didn't sleep all night, and neither did Wen Zhimiao.
