Today is the first day of the New Year, and Li Zhi has also come out to handle government affairs. Logically speaking, a court meeting will be held on this day, but because Li Zhi's health has not been cured, and there have been some months left, so Li Zhi did not hold a court meeting, but the ministers still want to come to the Secretariat for a meeting.

"Mr. Lu, is this highness's body healed?"

Di Renjie took a memorial and asked Lu Shi Gua.

Lu Shigua was stunned for a moment and said, "It's better."

Di Renjie asked again: "Can you review the memorial?"

Lu Shigua shook his head and said, "That's not possible, what are you asking about this?"

Di Renjie seemed to have not heard it, and said, "It's really strange. Could it be that Your Majesty has recovered?"

Cui Jie, who was standing beside him, said: "If Your Majesty is healed, then a court meeting should be held today. Why did you suddenly talk about this?"

Di Renjie handed the memorial to Cui Jieren and said, "About us who proposed to establish more government offices among the people and strengthen exchanges between the government and the people, Your Majesty has already issued instructions. Not only is it allowed, but it also made many suggestions after the memorial. It can be seen that Your Majesty should have been carefully considered, but this is just a trivial matter and there is no need to rush to give instructions. If Your Majesty's health has not been healed, you should not rush to this moment."

Wang Xuandao suddenly said: "When it comes to this matter, it seems that the above government orders have been issued very quickly in the past two months. Even His Majesty has already issued some of the affairs accumulated last year."

Cui Jieren looked at the memorial with the memorial and couldn't help frowning.

Just then, Han Yi walked in, "You guys are so early!"

A group of ministers immediately stood up and saluted.

Seeing that they all had confusion in their eyes, Han Yi couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about?"

Cui Jieren asked without answering and said, "Has the Shangshu Ling met Your Majesty recently?"

Han Yi nodded and said, "I went to Liangyi Hall a few days ago. Why?"

Cui Jieren asked again: "How is Your Majesty's body?"

Will you ask questions? Han Yi sighed: "It's better than before."

It was better, but my tone had already told everyone that it was still like that.

Di Renjie muttered: "This is strange. Your Highness's health has not recovered, so it is impossible for him to handle so many memorials."

"What are you talking about?" Han Yi wondered.

Di Renjie immediately informed Han Yi about this.

Unexpectedly, it came so quickly. Han Yi asked, "What can this mean?"

Lu Shigua said: "Do you think it was approved by the queen? The queen has been staying in the East Palace recently."

As soon as this said, everyone's expression changed. In fact, they had just guessed something, but no matter where they thought about it, they still trembled when they heard the Lu Shi Gua say it directly.

For them, this news would definitely cost their lives.

Why do they sit here? Isn’t it because of Wu Meiniang’s resignation? If Wu Meiniang turns over again, they will be in danger.

"It's the queen."

Suddenly I heard someone say at the door.

Everyone was shocked and turned to see Zhang Wenguan hurriedly walked in and said, "The memorials of the past two months have been given by the queen."

Han Yi exclaimed: "How do you know?"

Zhang Wenguan said: "As far as I know, we sent the memorial to the Eastern Palace and did not transfer to Liangyi Palace. However, Your Majesty only went to the Eastern Palace occasionally, but the Queen stayed in the Eastern Palace. This was not what the Queen ordered, and who would have ordered it?"

He was originally the prince's teacher and came from the Eastern Palace. He naturally knew much more about the movements and stills of the Eastern Palace than others.

Everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere seemed a little nervous.

Wang Xuan said, "Do your Majesty know about this?"

Zhang Wenguan said: "I think Your Majesty must not know about this. The Queen's move clearly was to use the prince to interfere in political affairs. This is not possible. We must submit a memorial and inform Your Majesty of this."

Changsun Yan frowned and said, "If this is true, it will probably cause turmoil in the court."

He was so scared that if Wu Meiniang came out again, she would definitely not be able to tolerate him.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Han Yi again.

Compared to Changsun Yan, Han Yi should be more afraid. Wu Meiniang was sent to the cold palace only when she dealt with him. If she turned around, the first thing she had to deal with would definitely be Han Yi.

What do you think of me? Are I afraid of her? Don't be funny? Han Yi was secretly disdainful, but he said worriedly: "There is no real evidence for this matter yet, so don't report it first. Next time I see Your Majesty, I will test it first."

Of course, these memorials were given by Wu Meiniang. Wu Meiniang's administrative ability was very outstanding. If it weren't for this, Han Yi would not have had any effort to let Wang Xuan interfere with Wu Meiniang and make her have no time to worry about his new policy. What's more important is that Wu Meiniang's body is really healthy. Not to mention serious illnesses, even minor illnesses are very rare and she is very decisive in handling matters. She soon handled all the accumulated memorials.

However, Wu Meiniang had no real power. She was an assistant and memorial to give instructions. Most of them were nodded by Li Zhi and were discussed and handled, as if she had returned to the state when the deposed king and established Wu. At that time, Wu Meiniang had no power in the outer court, and was a virtuous assistant to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi was actually very satisfied with this situation because Wu Meiniang could indeed share a lot of pressure for him, but Li Zhi was afraid of causing turmoil, so he placed the memorial in the East Palace and used the name of the prince to protect Wu Meiniang.

"Your Majesty, this is a memorial handed over by Sima of Chuzhou. He impeached Yang Zhanfei, the governor of Yangzhou, to violate the imperial court system and abolish the curfew without authorization."

Wu Meiniang handed a memorial to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi pretended to look at it, but in fact he couldn't see it clearly, frowned and said, "Why did Yang Zhanfei violate the imperial system? I think it was Sima of Chuzhou who was jealous of Yang Zhanfei, so he wanted to spread rumors. You warn him a few words after the memorial."

Wu Meiniang said: "I think this may not be a mess in the Chuzhou Sima, because such a thing is not difficult to investigate. Yang Zhanfei is currently the governor with the best political achievements in the local area. His Majesty has also praised him several times. How could Sima of Chuzhou do such a stupid thing? I think this matter should be true."

Li Zhi wondered: "But why did Yang Zhanfei do this?"

Wu Meiniang took out another memorial and said, "Your Majesty, this is a memorial handed over by Secretary Yan a few days ago. He suggested that the court re-plan the city's layout and also have a construction drawing."

Li Zhi said curiously: "What is the connection between these two?"

Wu Meiniang said: "According to the memorial of Shangshu Yan, with the promulgation of the new policy, the population in the city has increased day by day, so it seems very crowded, and many places have become very dirty, and the roads in the city are also disrepaired in disrepair. Whenever it rains, it becomes muddy. In addition, the people are now very mobile. The Lifang system not only cannot implement effective management, but also brings a lot of trouble to the people to a certain extent. In addition, the emergence of cement has solved many problems that were difficult to solve before, so Shangshu Yan suggested re-planning the layout of the city.

I have carefully looked at his drawings, which is not only more reasonable, but also more open and free. Similarly, curfews have also restricted the activities of the people to a certain extent, which is not conducive to the development of business. Yangzhou has become very prosperous in recent years and has developed business. It is the first city in Jiangnan. Therefore, it is entirely possible for Yang Zhanfei to open the curfew."

Li Zhi nodded slightly and said, "Then how do you think?"

Wu Meiniang said: "I agree with Yan Shangshu's suggestions and think that more freedom should be given to the people. Moreover, this is also the general trend, because with the promulgation of the new policy, the movement of the people is becoming more and more frequent. The Lifang system does bring many inconveniences to the people, and the court should reconsider it. At the same time, the curfew should be lifted in normal times. This can promote commercial development and bring a lot of income to the court. Because opening the curfew will inevitably generate a lot of consumption, and then more contracts will be generated, and the court can also benefit from it. Moreover, the Civil Security Bureau is now very mature, and even if the Lifang system is abolished, it can stabilize the public security in Chang'an."

Speaking of this, she paused and said, "But this may require a lot of money, and Your Majesty should still discuss it with Han Yi."

Li Zhi nodded and said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to know this new policy so well?"

Wu Meiniang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not to hide it from Your Majesty. In fact, when Han Yi was about to go back to mourn, she had made suggestions to me in this regard. Unfortunately, I misunderstood his intention and did not adopt his suggestions. But now it seems that he really hopes that our Tang Dynasty can be stronger and is me in my opinion." Afterwards, she couldn't help but look ashamed.

Li Zhi smiled with relief and said, "If you can figure this out, I will feel at ease. Okay, I will discuss it with Han Yi another day."

Daxingshan Temple.

"It seems that this is not a small matter!"

Cui Pingzhong smiled at Cui Jieren, who had been stunned on the other side, and said.

Cui Jieren was stunned, came to his senses and asked, "Dad, what did you say?"

Cui Pingzhong smiled and said, "What difficulties have you encountered? It makes you so frown."

Cui Jieren said with a serious expression: "Your Majesty may activate Empress Wu again."

Cui Pingzhong opened his eyes and said, "How did you know?"

Cui Jie said: "Because in the past two months, it is very likely that Empress Wu has been reviewing the memorials on behalf of the prince. Although Zhang Wenguan believes that Your Majesty does not know about this, I think this should be instructed by Your Majesty. It is not a minor crime to give the memorials without authorization. Empress Wu no longer has any power in the court and is still guilty. How dare she do this?

In addition, Your Majesty also has a reason to do so. After Your Majesty became ill, he asked the prince to be regent. The main purpose was to prevent the prime minister from taking over power. Unfortunately, the prince is now bedridden and cannot handle government affairs. Although Han Yi has been trying hard to avoid taking over power, both Your Majesty and the prince's illness are difficult to cure. From this point of view, it is not impossible for Your Majesty to re-activate Empress Wu again. After all, in Your Majesty's eyes, this imperial power is always the most important."

Cui Pingzhong pondered for a while and suddenly smiled: "In fact, no matter whether the prince is sick or not, Empress Wu will always come out again, because the prince is still a little too young, and His Majesty is unable to do so. His Majesty will definitely not imitate the Emperor Taizong and leave a few auxiliary ministers for the prince. Then the only one who can replace the auxiliary minister and protect the prince is the only one who can protect the prince. Empress Wu not only has excellent administrative abilities, but also the prince's biological mother. For His Majesty, they are always a family."

Cui Jieren frowned and said, "But if Queen Wu comes out again, it will cause another bloody storm. She will definitely take revenge on Han Yi, or even."

"you?"

"Um."

Cui Pingzhong smiled and said, "But don't forget that the whole plan was made by Han Yi. He could think of such a long time. Couldn't he think of this?"

Cui Jieren frowned and said, "The child doesn't quite understand what Daddy means."

Cui Pingzhong said: "I already know what Han Yi's last step is."

Choi Jan Ren said in surprise: "What is Han Yi's last step?"

"It's Empress Wu."

"Empress Wu?"

Cui Jieren's eyes opened sharply.

Cui Pingzhong rarely showed a smug smile on his lips, and he said a little excitedly: "Yes, Han Yi did all this for Queen Wu. On the one hand, he assisted His Majesty and managed the finances, on the other hand, helped Queen Wu give advice, and at the same time secretly contacted Changsun Wuji. However, when Queen Wu gave advice, he was the most sincere, but he pretended to be a lie."

"Is this for-why?" Cui Jieren said in surprise.
