201 Dry and clear government
After leaving the East Palace, Xiao Xia went straight to the Yuanxi Palace.
Pan Zhengchun and Wu Tai, the two heads of the imperial palace, bowed their heads and knelt at the door of the side hall, and none of the rest of the palace people were seen.
Seeing the queen, the second slave showed two points of joy, Pan Zhengchun hurriedly raised his head and said: "The emperor said that when the mother comes, he will go directly to the meeting." ”
Xiao Xia Hou snorted almost inaudibly, waved away from the person, and stepped inside. Since Rong Shengyin ascended the throne, the imperial palace is no longer a place where her stepwife can enter and exit at will.
Yuanxi Hall is an I-shaped building, divided into the front hall and the back bed, and the middle is connected by the hall.
Walking in the hall covered with silk and gold curtains, Xiao Xia suddenly had a strange feeling. How similar is the arrangement of this hall to the Yining Palace? Is it just because the concubine of Emperor Kangci, the concubine Zhang, was the favorite concubine of the first emperor? This Yuanxi Palace is also arranged according to the preferences of the Zhang family?
This question is insignificant, and Xiao Xiahou only had the idea of Fang Xingxing, so she had already walked through the hall and entered the East Side Hall.
At a glance, you can see the "Qianqing and Ming Zheng" plaque of the founding emperor of the founding emperor of the palace in the palace, the south window is set up under the kang, the interior has passed the residence of the emperor of six or seven generations, the furnishings are very gorgeous, the window is tightly closed, countless candlesticks have been lit, although the dragon incense is also smoked, but can not hide a smell of sulfur.
The dragon robe was thrown casually on the steps in front of the throne, Emperor Yongshao wore his hair and feet, but he was only wearing a middle coat, he walked back and forth in the room, and when he saw her, he took a few steps to meet her and asked, "What did he say?"
Xiao Xia squatted slightly, which was considered a courtesy. With a pale face, he asked rhetorically: "Who said what?"
Emperor Yongshao endured, his face gloomy. The tone was no longer good, "Naturally, it's that little brute!"
"He'......" Xiao Xia smiled helplessly, "The concubine didn't see it." ”
There was a trace of impatience in Emperor Yongshao's voice, and his eyes became even colder, "Aren't you very capable on weekdays?
Xiao Xia naturally knew that he had sent Mu Shufei's mother and son, Concubine Li, and others to explore the rumors, and she was very unhappy. Neither should I say that.
Emperor Yongshao staggered a few steps and sat down on the kang in front of the south window.
Xiao Xia then sat down opposite and said, "He only sent the Ling clan to send us." I don't think we are in the eye anymore. ”
"How is that good?" Emperor Yongshao raised his eyes, his panicked expression had diluted the coldness, and his voice seemed to tremble a little, "They must have thought that I had instructed the Divine Machine Battalion to plot to kill the prince." He didn't even see Mrs. Xing Guotai. Who can hold it down? Isn't it...... It's not that tomorrow he is going to depose the emperor......"
Xiao Xiahou frowned, if it was an ordinary couple, she was only afraid to say, "Look at your unproductive appearance", but the opposite was the emperor, she temporarily put away her disdain, "The person who was placed in the East Palace by the concubine came with news, saying that Shangguan You and others were chasing Rong Xijue to force the palace to rebel, but he did not agree. I don't think I will do that for the time being, but the generals have been driven away from the Hanzhang Palace. But he gathered in front of him and refused to disperse, for fear that he would change his original intention. ”
Emperor Yongshao stood up and gritted his teeth, but he was helpless, and sighed: "I can only wait and see what happens?"
Xiao Xia Hou was about to speak, but he began to walk back and forth again.
The person in front of him was also young and handsome, unmatched, when his sister married him as Princess Zhao, how envious he was, now compared with Rong Xijue, the pearl dung is immediately superior, it turns out that a man has no responsibility, no matter how high his status is, it is in vain.
"That's it!" After walking for a while, Emperor Yongshao looked up to the sky and sighed, "Tomorrow I still can't avoid the court, and declare yesterday's incident in the East Palace as a reverse case, I will write an edict, and you will come forward to be a good person, just say that I am anxious to feel the wind and cold, and I am seriously ill, and I will order the prince to supervise the country to see what will happen to him." ”
Saying that, he nodded, and seemed to have finally found a solution, and continued: "In this way, you can not only test whether that little beast really has the intention to usurp the throne, but also temporarily eliminate the consequences of today's events, what do you think?"
"If he doesn't return to government after he is in prison, what will your majesty do?"
Emperor Yongshao smiled bitterly: "What else, you and I ask him to raise his noble hand and leave his life." ”
Xiao Xia Hou bowed her head and thought about all kinds of foreign aid, whether it was the Tang State Mansion or the clan with heavy troops in the southwest, it seemed that there was not much restraint on the prince for a while, although the emperor's method was quite pathetic, but it could be regarded as advancing and retreating, which could temporarily suppress the desire of the military general, and left a foreshadowing for the recovery of the imperial power.
It's just that all the consequences are in the hands of others, not to mention the strength of the nest.
I heard Emperor Yongshao muttering: "I regret that I shouldn't have listened to Ruan Yue's agitation, all the time is not ripe, the western army will not be destroyed for a day, and the prince will not be able to move for a day." Now he is ruthless, killing us is like killing chickens and slaughtering sheep, if you read the relationship between father and son, I am afraid that you can still leave the name of the emperor under house arrest in the inner ......"
He choked up as he spoke.
Xiao Xiahou couldn't see his nest, stood up, and stabbed: "Is it father and son, it's still tight." ”
Without waiting for Emperor Yongshao to get angry, he turned to the entrance of the matching hall.
There was a loud "clang" behind him, but it was a silver candlestick of He Qinghai Yan thrown three feet away from his feet, the candle flame fluttered and went out, a puff of green smoke rose up, and the candle tears spilled all over the ground.
Early the next morning, the emperor fell ill and announced that the crown prince would temporarily supervise the country.
However, there was a clear edict from the inner court, saying, "Shangshu instigated the ministers and the eunuchs of the country to attack the East Palace with the Shenji Battalion Naxiang, and planned to assassinate the prince, which was a heinous crime, and it was really a ......rebellion."
When he received the holy decree, Rong Xijue did not plan to go to court.
Holding the roll of multicolored brocade in his hand, he was really stunned.
If he wanted to be the emperor, he did it directly, so why bother to come around the bush so much?
Ignoring it, he temporarily changed his mind when he thought of the soldiers and civilians who still had no explanation outside the fortress and the army who were in a dilemma in Zhumapo.
The generals were excited, hoping that he would sit on that throne, and that they would have their own concerns.
But on the throne, it is his biological father, in terms of morality, he can't do it at all, since he can't do anything to rebel, he also understands what his father did.
What emperor would not tolerate a son like himself?
Throwing the holy decree on the big case in the study, Rong Xijue turned his bowels, and he actually remembered Ling Makeup, and remembered the expectant eyes outside the gate.
"When our imperial grandson returns to the capital, he will take us into the customs to live a life like a fairy!"
This is a phrase that can often be heard in the tea shops outside the Kansai.
The Shenji battalion openly shot at itself, if there was no means at all, and the authority still fell into the hands of the father, the position of the Western Army would always be embarrassing.
James Yizhai stood aside with his head down, and he didn't dare to come out.
But he heard the prince ask, "Di Jenshi, what do you think?"
Di Yizhai shook his robe and knelt down, and said loudly: "The minister thinks that the matter is filial piety, and obedience is the top." (To be continued.) )
