When the sent servant sent back the news, the movements in Ying Ze's hands stopped immediately, and Zheng Baisheng beside him hurriedly asked:

"So fast, it's all together?"

The visitor bowed his head and replied:

"Yes, it is said that the lords who have already contributed money came forward, went to the other houses to speak, and paid a part of it out of their own pockets, so that they had enough money. It is said that Si Tianjian has already prepared the preparations for the national sacrifice, and now I am leading all the adults, waiting outside the palace to see His Majesty!"

Hearing this, Zheng Baisheng subconsciously turned his head to look at Ying Ze, and seeing Ying Ze's face instantly turned cold.

For the sake of this matter, Ying Ze will not be able to detect any strangeness here, and there is no need to sit in this position.

He guessed that the ministers who contributed the money would be dissatisfied with the officials who did not contribute, but he also knew that it would take at least a few days to get to this point with the consistent style of these people in the DPRK and the Central Committee who look forward to the future and seek success from both sides. react to.

And just one day after the incident, all the officials inexplicably joined forces. If it was said that no one was behind it, even the cat raised by that silly girl Xiao Yunxiang would not believe it.

And at this critical juncture, the courtiers suddenly became so united just to let him perform an innocuous national sacrifice?

The corner of Ying Ze's lips curled into a mocking arc, and he told Zheng Baisheng:

"Go and tell the group of trash outside that you don't have to come to see Gu anymore. After a few more days, pick an auspicious day, Gu will naturally go to the imperial mausoleum to offer sacrifices, and let them all go back to their homes."

Zheng Baisheng bowed and saluted, and was about to go out to deliver a message, but the little servant who just came in to report looked up at Zheng Baisheng uneasily, and said cautiously:

"Your Majesty, Mr. Jianzheng said that today is the most auspicious day in the middle of half a month. They came here to invite His Majesty and the Empress to set off for the imperial mausoleum together to perform the national sacrifice ceremony. They also said ..."

Ying Ze slowly turned his head to look at him, and asked unhurriedly:

"What else?"

The little servant was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed, crying:

"Since yesterday, there have been rumors in the city that His Majesty will go to the state sacrifice today. If His Majesty repents, the people may doubt whether His Majesty is ashamed of the late Emperor, and will not be helped by God, and will lose the hearts of the people!"

There was a loud "bang", and the little servant trembled in fright, and knelt on the ground tremblingly, fearing that Ying Ze would get angry and lose his life.

Zheng Baisheng also looked at Ying Ze worriedly, only to see the expressionless young emperor, slowly withdrew his hand from the tea spilled from the shattered teacup, and said with a sneer:

"Okay, it's really a good subject of Gu, it's really courageous to learn to use public opinion to force Gu to submit!"

This is no longer trying to lure him into the trap by beating around the bush, but an undisguised conspiracy. No matter who is in this position, whether it is a wise and arbitrary monarch or a cowardly and powerless puppet emperor, no one can escape the will of the people. .

This is the insidious part of this plan. The scheming people use the national sacrifice as a cover to determine the legitimacy of this trip. Even if most of the court is his people, these courtiers can't come up with a suitable reason to stop this move. .

If it were before King Li's rebellion, these people would not have dared to be so presumptuous, because they knew that Ying Ze had plenty of ways to punish them, but in the current situation, they expected that Ying Ze would have no time to attack them, otherwise there would be no one in the rear, and they would attack them. Chaos.

Besides, the law does not blame the public, the more they act aboveboard, the more Ying Ze can't deal with them at this moment, otherwise he will bear the name of a tyrant.

Ying Ze is not an idiot, the other side deliberately forced him to go to the state sacrifice, he would never really take it as a good intention to appease the people, just imagine, if the people heard that the emperor who originally went to the state sacrifice to ask for the protection of his ancestors, but in the country There was an accident during the sacrificial ceremony, whether it was just a mistake in the ceremony or something happened to him himself, the common people probably would not have any positive guesses, and it would be beneficial to King Li anyway.

At this time, most of his most important generals are not in the capital, and the available manpower is insufficient, so this trip is obviously dangerous.

If you don't go, you will feel uneasy, and if you go, you may fall into a trap. Ying Ze kept a cold face and didn't say a word for a while.

Zheng Baisheng on the side handed over the handkerchief to wipe his hands distressedly, and said tentatively:

"Your Majesty, why don't you... write to the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness the Regent?"

Ying Ze's voice was unusually calm:

"It's too late. Besides, I'm no longer the child I was back then. If I always ask my mother and uncle to help me, why should I be the emperor?"

Zheng Baisheng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly lowered his head:

"Yes, the servant is talking too much, then His Majesty intends to..."

Ying Ze's eyes were slightly cold:

"It's still early, let them wait outside. The national sacrifice is a big gift, so you can't wait for it solemnly. Mulan changes clothes and burns incense? You can't rush this moment. Let people invite Shen imperial physician to the queen's palace. The queen recently Isn’t the wind and cold entering the body, the pain is unbearable, naturally I have to let the doctor Shen make a diagnosis and treatment, if I miss the national sacrifice due to illness, it will be bad.”

The little servant kneeling on the ground murmured subconsciously:

The empress was born as a general, and she is very healthy. Didn't you hear that she was sick these days?

Zheng Baisheng's eyes lit up at the side, and he bowed in response:

"Yes, this old slave will send someone to invite the Imperial Physician Shen, and order the Imperial Physician to 'diagnose' the Empress. Over there at the imperial mausoleum, Your Majesty, look..."

"Order Zhao Chuan, the commander of the imperial army, to send Qingqi to the area of ​​the imperial mausoleum quickly to investigate hidden dangers."

Zheng Baisheng took the order to go down, and conveyed Ying Ze's "seriously waiting" to the ministers outside with a smile, and then left all the people kneeling with pain in their knees, but they didn't dare to get up, they could only slap each other with bitter faces The group of people involved in the eyebrow-eye lawsuit rushed to invite Dr. Shen.

When Xiao Yunxiang learned that Ying Ze had suddenly invited an imperial physician to see him, she was also dumbfounded for a moment, thinking when did she catch a cold, why didn't she even know about it?

It wasn't until I met someone and learned about the national sacrifice that I realized it. Dang even covered his head and wailed, "I can't do it, I'm dying of illness, help me" and fell directly on the bed.

So soon, the officials in front of the imperial study learned that the empress was seriously ill and comatose, and could not get up immediately to go to the national sacrifice.

The queen must be present for the great ceremony of the country, so all the ministers were dumbfounded immediately, and Ying Ze, who had changed into the uniform, just came out with a look that I was very cooperative. , don't miss today's National Sacrifice.

As soon as Si Tianjian opened his mouth, what he wanted to say was snatched away by Ying Ze, and he froze in place for a moment, not knowing what to say.

And after Ying Ze seemed to say "I'm very sad", he took off the clothes very smoothly. When the imperial doctor said that the acupuncture had rescued the queen, Ying Ze was busy wearing clothes again. Dagon uniform, Dagon uniform was put on, just stepped out of the palace gate, there was another news from the queen's palace that she passed out.
