Chapter 1726

Duan Shengtong's real age is more than 50 years old, but because he is an aristocrat, he has excellent maintenance and looks only about 40 years old. He is very noble in a fine silk suit. Compared with Guo Zude, who is sitting with him, he is much more simple.

As a minister, Guo Zude's dress is very common. He is thin and dark, so he is not noticeable.

Because it's a private matter, he doesn't wear official clothes, but a dark gray cloth shirt. If he goes out of the street, who dares to recognize that he is a central member?

Despite this, Duan Shengtong did not dare to neglect. He stood up, bowed his waist, held his glass in both hands, and said with a smile, "it's rare for Mr. Guo to come to my humble abode. I'll give you a toast."

This is not a polite remark, because Guo Zude did come here. He invited each other many times and was rejected. He still came to the door on his own initiative.

Then Guo Zude seemed ungrateful and didn't even lift his glass.

"What you've done recently is too much," he said in a deep voice

Duan Shengtong slightly stagnated. He still kept the posture of bending over and bending over, and said: "Your Majesty has been worried for many days. The situation in the central court has changed greatly. We just want to find what we have lost back!"

"You should be glad!"

Guo Zude said in a low voice: "at the beginning of the establishment of the new dynasty, the three big families of the former dynasty collapsed in one day. If you can stay, you should know how to cherish it."

"Yes

Duan Shengtong put down his glass and said, "we should be thankful, but don't we pay enough?"

"Do you think that your majesty is really kind?"

"Qu family, Jing family and Zhao family are the biggest families in the former dynasty, but they are not soft hearted in dealing with them. They are killing the three families, destroying the three generations, and not allowing one person to survive. He is giving us a deterrent!"

"The reason why he left us is that we have too many resources in our hands. He wants to ensure stability and drain us all. It seems benevolent, but in fact it is a combination of kindness and power!"

"Since you know your Majesty's means, how dare you be so presumptuous?"

Guo Zude's face is not happy or angry.

"He's gone!"

Duan Shengtong spread out his hand and said, "I've never heard of an emperor who left so long before the establishment of the new dynasty."

"Are you not afraid of his coming back?"

Guo Zude said in a low voice: "the courtiers are all in such a state, but the prince still doesn't reveal. So far, he doesn't know where his majesty has gone."

"So what?"

Duan Shengtong said: "we just want to get back what we lost. It's not so easy to deal with so many people and families."

"Mr. Guo, you think too much."

"What's more, Mr. Guo, although you didn't take part in these recent events, I'm afraid you can't get away from it..."

Guo Zude was silent.

He didn't even explicitly say yes, but these were all under his acquiescence.

His birth was also brilliant, but his family declined, so he was not valued in the previous dynasty.

He has reached the age, does not love women, is not greedy for money, central officials, he is the most poor.

Some people say that he is the second generation of Ji Wuchang, because Ji Wuchang was the same at the beginning.

But what does he want?

He just wanted to make life better for those left over from the previous dynasty.

This may be a special psychological satisfaction.

Your Majesty's step is too big. It's hard for them to ban all kinds of aristocratic privileges. They naturally find him and recognize him as the leader.

He doesn't want to play for power, but he was born in this officialdom. He can only abide by the rules of the game and fight among factions. This is a theme that will never change. He needs to have his own strength.

And then it's off!

He felt an uneasiness instinctively.

These people have lost their bondage and seem to want to be restored before

Although he didn't take part in it or seek benefits, it was all with his tacit consent.

People's mind is out of control!

"My Lord, I don't mean anything else, just..."

Guo Zude said: "I warn you not to go too far, and your son, let him be more restrained."

"I understand."

Duan Shengtong is busy responding.

"The most important thing is also my bottom line. The princes of the eastern Chu state have been very upset recently. They sent a large number of disciples to Beijing to try to get through their joints and collude with officials."

Guo Zude said in a deep voice: "if you dare to have anything to do with it, I'm the first to forgive you. This is the bottom line..."

"Mr. Guo, you are too cautious!"

Duan Shengtong said: "the current situation of the imperial court is changing. The crown prince is obviously unable to suppress many courtiers. Our faction is superior to the other two. You are too low-key!"

"Enough!"

Guo Zude directly scolded: "if I don't keep a low profile, can I have today? Remember what I said, or no one can protect you! "You obviously mean not only Duan Shengtong, but also all the forces of the old dynasty!

After that, Guo Zude stood up and was ready to leave.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and a man came in in a hurry.

"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you not to disturb me and Lord Guo? "

Duan Shengtong has a bad complexion.

"Sir, something's wrong!"

This person is busy: "young master encounters danger in Yi'an District, that person has many expert guards, suspect the person of the taishangjiao, please rush to immediately!"

"Taishangjiao?"

Guo Zude and Duan Shengtong's face changed slightly. Nowadays, this is absolutely taboo, and no one dares to neglect it.

"Go, go at once!"

Since someone has been sent to inform him, it must be something that his son can't handle.

In the early days of the new dynasty, several of his sons were executed for violating the law, so he had a special love for Duan Ziming.

In the past, he could not protect it, but now he has the ability and will surely protect it.

As for what to preach, he did not believe it. It must be his son's idea that the person who offended him should be a member of the supreme cult. In this way, there are sufficient reasons.

Yes, this boy knows how to use his brain!

"Go to inform the Ministry of punishment and Jingzhao mansion. I'll see who dares to be so brave!"

Duan Shengtong thinks that this is a good opportunity. When he makes a big noise, he can show his sense of existence, which is good

"I'll go with you."

Guo Zude said immediately.

Whether it's true or not, as long as we mention the three words "taishangjiao", we have to pay attention to them.

"It's better to have Mr. Guo with you."

Duan Shengtong has more confidence!

Soon, it spread all over the government. Even if it didn't involve too little education, it was no small matter. After all, so many people were killed and injured, and the Duan family was also involved.

Duan Shengtong, together with many other officials, such as Guo Zude, even mobilized the city guard, which is about to make a big stir. However, Duan Ziming and Zhang Xiangsong are more and more confused
