Chapter 417: The Empress intercedes

In the deep palace, Empress Xie was reading a letter to her family.

After Empress Dowager Wen said that, she sent someone to send a letter to her family in Dengzhou to inquire about the meaning of the family.

Soon, the family also sent a reply letter. However, there was not a single word in the reply to the letter about the things mentioned by the Empress Dowager Wen, only a copy of Xie Huiling's hand-copied "Hundred Parables" and a poem.

"The Book of Hundred Parables", Queen Xie has naturally read it, and the stories in it are all kinds of stories in the world, but in the end there is only one purpose: to persuade people to be good.

Empress Xie understood what Xie Huiling meant.

She has a very good relationship with Xie Huiling, a nephew. When Xie Huiling came back from Mingzhou, he told her that when she was in Mingzhou, she encountered a frightened horse on the street and almost died under the horse's hooves. At that time, thanks to Yan Yudong, who didn't care about his life, he grabbed the galloping horse to save him, and later Zhou Ming killed the frightened horse, so he was able to get out of danger safely.

In order to repay his kindness, Xie Huiling also sent the Yan family's brothers and sisters Luhua balsam powder all over the capital. A man gave a gift, carrying a woman's fat powder, which was once a joke in Beijing.

Empress Xie put down the "Book of Hundred Parables" and picked up the words again, and she was a little surprised when she saw it. This Fu is not good. But the content of the words is thought-provoking. This Fu wrote about Li Chengyun, the eldest prince of Jingwangfu, for disaster relief in the northwest, and was praised by the northwest.

Empress Xie didn't know the news that Li Chengyun was preparing to return, but she saw that the Northwest General personally led a team to escort Li Chengyun all the way to the edge of the station.

Li Chengyun went to the northwest in the spring, and in most of the half a year, he actually won over the hearts of the people in the northwest.

Northwest, already in the hands of Lee Seung-yoon!

No wonder Empress Dowager Wen wants to show favor to herself, she knows the news of Li Chengyun, right?

Li Chengyun had the support of the northwest, and Empress Dowager Wen was afraid that he would be too powerful to suppress, so she wanted to clean up the Chengwang Mansion and put the military power of the Chengwang Mansion into the hands of the Wen family. Or, is it to make Chengwangfu cold to Emperor Wu and no longer loyal?

Empress Xie looked at the things sent again.

In the future of the Xie family, it must be Xie Huiling who is in charge.

She has no children and no daughters, and she will still rely on her nephew to take care of her in the future.

That's it, if her nephew wants to do this, she will always do it.

As soon as she put away these things, the confidant palace people hurriedly came in and said, "Queen Mother, the Holy Lord is angry in the front hall, and he wants to cut out the heart of Prince Cheng!"

"What, whom?" Empress Xie couldn't believe her ears and asked rhetorically.

"Niangniang, Cheng Wang, Cheng Wangye!"

The things in Empress Xie's hands fell with a bang, how could the saint be so dim-witted! Cheng Wangfu is the mainstay of Yongding. The successive kings have changed, no matter what happens to the princes, but because of the loyalty of the king's palace, the new emperor who ascends the throne can always stabilize the situation immediately.

Moreover, Emperor Wu actually wanted to use this torture to the loyal Chengwang Mansion?

"What about the adults on duty? Did they go there?"

"The adults on duty in the six departments, even the guards who stayed in the palace, all knelt in the front hall and pleaded. Can...... But the saint was even more angry, and the front hall had already killed several guards. The palace people trembled.

The emperor was angry, ambushed millions of corpses, and Emperor Wu beat a few intercessing guards alive and refused to stop his anger.

Empress Xie couldn't watch Emperor Wu kill loyal ministers indiscriminately, especially King Cheng Zhou Dingkang, she thought about it, changed her clothes, and led people to the front hall.

When the ministers of the front hall heard that the queen had arrived, they all retreated to the door and knelt down, not daring to raise their heads again.

Emperor Wu heard that Empress Xie asked to see her late at night, so he let people pass it on.

Empress Xie walked into the front hall and saw that Emperor Wu was leaning crookedly on the dragon chair, his brows were furrowed, and Kang Shun was pinching his head for him in the back, "Shengshang, are you having a head wind again?"

Empress Xie took a few steps closer and asked with concern, Emperor Wu nodded slightly, Empress Xie looked at Kang Shun and reprimanded, "Kang Shun, you are also an old man serving the saint, knowing that the saint has a headache, why do you still let the saint sit?" ”

As she spoke, she gestured, and the two beautiful palace people behind her stepped forward, called "Shengshang", and reached out to help.

Gentle and coquettish, even if Emperor Wu was having a terrible headache, he still opened his eyes and glanced at it, and nodded again invisibly.

The two palace maids helped Emperor Wu up, Empress Xie was slightly on the side, walked to the apse, walked to the steps, and saw the adults kneeling outside the hall gate, "Holy Lord, these adults, do you want them to retreat first?"

As soon as Emperor Wu wanted to speak, there was another throbbing pain in his head, and after surviving the throbbing pain, he said in a cold voice, "They won't retreat." ”

"This is, is something going on again?" Empress Xie asked with some surprise, and then lowered her voice and said, "The last time the Holy Lord called the ministers late at night to discuss matters, it was still when there was an accident in Shuzhong, and it has only been a year, how can there be an emergency military situation again?"

The news of King Teng's rebellion in Shuzhong came last time, Emperor Wu convened ministers late at night, and finally King Cheng's father and son asked for their lives, and Zhou Ming led troops to quell the rebellion.

Emperor Wu snorted again when he thought of this.

The ministers outside the door saw that Emperor Wu was leaving, and those who were anxious couldn't care that Empress Xie was still inside, and shouted loudly, "Shengshang, Lord Cheng is loyal, ask the Shengshang to remember his loyalty in the past and spare him." ”

As soon as this person took the lead, other ministers immediately followed and said, "Holy Lord, Lord Cheng is just confused for a while, and he will never intentionally offend Tianwei!"

"King Cheng?" Empress Xie looked at Emperor Wu again in surprise, "Holy Lord, Lord Cheng...... What's the matter? Why don't you go lie down and rest first? Two days ago, the national teacher also said that you should not be angry and see blood these days. ”

Emperor Wu was interrupted by Queen Xie like this, and his anger was slightly extinguished, thinking that King Cheng's father and son had a meritorious role in quelling the rebellion in Shuzhong, so he killed others and said that he was unjustly killed a loyal minister.

Did the national teacher say that there was no visible blood, he didn't remember, Kang Shun obediently followed from the side and said, "Yes, Holy Lord, the national teacher said that your cultivation is at a critical juncture......

"Spread the decree, Zhou Dingkang resisted the decree in front of the emperor, read his past diligence and commendability, forty court staffs, and send them home!"

"Holy Wisdom!" Hearing that King Cheng's life was saved, the adults kneeling and pleading outside the hall shouted long live.

Emperor Wu was supported by two workers and returned to the back dormitory, and soon the imperial doctor was sent to give him an acupuncture to relieve his pain.

Emperor Wu was lying on the bed, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the picture of the Heavenly Maiden hanging on the opposite side, smelling the faint fragrance in the hall, and felt that the pain of the head wind was relieved a lot. He slowly closed his eyes and let the two palace people massage him, and after the imperial doctor administered the needle, he soon fell into a deep sleep.

After Empress Xie saw Emperor Wu enter the inner room, she looked inside and outside the palace, sighed, and ordered someone to take the best imperial medicine for injuries and send it to King Cheng's mansion.
