In July of the second year of Zhenghe, Gengyin, the crown prince was defeated, and he ran south to Chang'an. The pen % fun % pavilion www.biquge.info the Son of Heaven Zhao Zongzheng Liu Chang, the ruling Jinwu Liu Dare to receive the queen's seal.

Seeing Zongzheng and Zhi Jinwu at the same time, a trace of sharp resentment flashed in Wei Zifu's eyes, but she did not have any action to vent, calmly listened to the emperor's policy, calmly let Chang Yu untie her scarf, and calmly watched Shang Xi present the queen's six seals.

From beginning to end, she didn't say a word, and that calm made the two high-ranking officials from the clan faintly feel a trace of terrifying fear.

Zong Zheng wanted to say something, but when he saw the queen's indifferent calm, he panicked involuntarily, and hurriedly said in a vague tone: "I just accepted the queen's seal, and did not withdraw from the annex, and asked the queen to live in the Jiaofang Palace." ”

When the last sentence was spoken, Liu Chang himself felt deeply embarrassed, but Wei Zifu still did not react.

The two of them glanced at each other, and they didn't want to continue to stay in the Jiaofang Palace, but the emperor's edict still had to be obeyed, so Liu Dare walked up to the queen under Liu Chang's urging gaze and asked cautiously: "Ask the queen, can you know the whereabouts of the crown prince?" ”

This sentence made Wei Zifu suddenly raise his head, and his fierce gaze was fixed on Zhi Jinwu's face. Liu Dang couldn't help but retreat again and again.

"Is it Shang who wants to know, or is that Zhao Nu want to know?" Wei Zifu sneered again and again, raised his hand, and pointed directly at Su Wen at the palace gate, "What do you think I have been the queen of thirty-eight years?" ”

- I actually want to use such an idiotic method to trick her words!

- When she, the queen, deserves to be quiet, does she really think that she is innocent and kind?

Wei Zifu couldn't help but sneer again - do they all think that she can be in charge of Jiaofang for thirty-eight years, but in fact, it is just luck that her younger brother has never been defeated in the seven expeditions against the Huns?

- Do you really think that the dignitaries of the Wei family are just lucky?

Wei Zifu stood up with the support of the palace maids, no longer looked at Zongzheng, Zhi Jinwu and the eunuchs outside the palace, turned around and walked to the back bed, and at the same time calmly gave the order to evict the guests in a cold tone: "Get out." ”

- Anger is useless, why should she be angry?

- It's useless to be polite, why should she be polite?

Liu Chang and Liu Dang immediately withdrew from the Jiaofang Palace, not daring to stay longer for a moment, and Lang Zhong (Note 1), who was in charge of surrounding the Jiaofang Palace, immediately closed the door of the Jiaofang Palace.

"You two should ask again!" Seeing that he couldn't fulfill his wish, Su Wen couldn't help but be anxious, and actually accused the two Jiuqing high-ranking officials in front of the Jiaofang Palace.

Liu Chang is an elder of the clan, and when he is idle, even the emperor is polite, where can he listen to the accusations of the eunuchs, and he will leave immediately. Liu Dare was younger, not as well cultivated as the elders, squinted at Su Wen, and said with a smile: "Su Huangmen, when Mrs. Gou Yi enters the Jiaofang Palace, you will be the eldest Changqiu, and then point fingers at us!" After speaking, he snorted coldly, turned around and left, and ordered Lang Zhong, who was on guard: "There is an edict, and those who have not obeyed the edict are not allowed to enter and leave the pepper room!" ”

"Respectfully!"

Neither Liu Chang nor Liu Kang expected that they would return to Jianzhang Palace to restore their lives, and before they could say a few words when they entered the Mingluan Palace, Guangluxun's right household general (Note 2), who was responsible for guarding the Jiaofang Palace, hurriedly came to report - the queen committed suicide!

"Suicide...... Good! Good! Good! ......" The Son of Heaven said three good things in a row, and everyone in the hall was secretly frightened.

“…… For the son, for the husband...... What a guard! ”

The husband's words were worthy of the mouth, and everyone saw the Son of Heaven covering his mouth, and the eunuch Cheng was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward but was brushed away by the Son of Heaven.

Although he couldn't look closely, the eunuch still saw that the dark brown sleeves of the Son of Heaven were stained with a strange color.

"Lord!" How dare the eunuch retreat, knelt beside the Son of Heaven, pulled the edge of the Son of Heaven's sleeve, and burst into tears, "Take care, Lord!" ”

"Take care, Lord!"

The unknown crowd shouted.

The Son of Heaven raised his head, the corners of his lips were a little red, and everyone in the hall couldn't help but be shocked: "Lord! ”

Jin Riyan, who had just arrived outside the hall, was also shocked, knelt down in panic, and kowtowed urgently: "Lord, do you want to summon the imperial doctor?" ”

"Not necessarily!" The Son of Heaven refused in a low voice, "I can't die!" ”

"Before I see the prince, I can't die!"

The Son of Heaven lifted his spirits and asked Jin Riyan solemnly: "Can Yu Shi ask clearly?" How did the prince get out of Chang'an? ”

Jin Riyan didn't raise his head, and his forehead was pressed against the Danqi outside the hall: "The prime minister replied to the imperial historian - the Si Zhi (Note 3) department closed the city gate, and the Si Zhi Tian Ren guarded the Ang Gate, and the prince." ”

"Tian Ren?" The Son of Heaven obviously thought of something, and repeated thoughtfully.

"Yes." Kim Il-pan didn't say much, but just replied on a case-by-case basis.

The Son of Heaven frowned slightly, and asked again: "Since the prime minister knows, how to deal with military law?" ”

Jin Riyan pondered for a moment, and still replied truthfully: "The prime minister wants to behead Tian Ren and stop it for the imperial doctor?" ”

"Why?" The Son of Heaven was furious, "I have repeatedly said that the opposing person must not be allowed to leave Chang'an, let alone the prince?" ”

Jin Riyan kowtowed: "The imperial historian said to the prime minister: 'Si Zhi, the official has 2,000 stones, please be the first, but you can't kill it!'" 'Therefore, the prime minister did not dispose of Tian Ren! ”

"Two thousand stones are not allowed to be cut without permission, and my edict can be violated without permission?" The Son of Heaven was furious, "You go and ask the violent victory on my behalf - the prince of Si Zhizong, the prime minister beheaded him, which law did you violate?" Why did he stop it? ”

"Doesn't Tian Ren deserve to die? Smart! He deserves to die! ”

The furious Son of Heaven roared.

Jin Riyan didn't dare to hesitate and immediately got up and left.

——In July, the Imperial Doctor was blamed for his violent victory, committed suicide in panic, and Tian Ren's subordinates were executed.

When things begin to unexpectedly, the angry Son of Heaven needs to use countless blood to calm the uneasiness and fear in his heart.

What about when the authorities are completely out of control?

……

Tongbai Pavilion in the south of Chang'an City.

Because the prince rebelled, the three auxiliary soldiers all marched into the army to quell the rebellion, and only the women and children were left in the pavilion, and the doors of each family were closed.

On the uninhabited path, an ordinary black cloth cart drove slowly, and finally stopped in the wilderness lined with graves, two men in ramie shirts jumped out of the car, and moved a simple coffin from the car with the black and thin coachman, one of them panicked and urged the other two to speed up their movements, and finally, the person who got out of the car with him smiled and said: "Su Huangmen, this matter can't be fast." Otherwise, you drive back to Chang'an first, anyway, it's not far, we can walk back. ”

Su Huangmen is the hot Su Wen in the palace at this time.

Hearing what the other party said, Su Wen was not polite, jumped into the car and left.

Looking at the chariot going away, the man let out a long breath, turned around, and saw two men and women in soap clothes walking out of the graveyard.

The man is a little older and has passed the age of standing, while the woman is very young, the age when the youth has faded and the appearance is at its peak. The skin of the two is delicate, and at a glance, they know that they are from a pampered and wealthy family.

Seeing the two of them, neither the coachman nor the person who had transferred Su Wen before were surprised, but saluted solemnly at the same time.

The two men did not return the salute, but looked at the coffin with pale faces, and after a long time, the man helped the young woman to the small coffin, and when the young woman stood still, he fell to his knees.

"Childe's Day mourning......," the man standing next to him persuaded with a sad face.

He didn't know the young woman, but he knew that this middle-aged man was Wei Deng, the nephew of Empress Wei in the coffin and the only remaining son of Marquis Changping Lie.

He was tortured when he was young, entered the palace as a small yellow gate, and received the favor of this noble son who was always very quiet, so when Wei Deng sent someone to summon him, asking him to pay attention to Jiaofang Hall and inform him in time, he should go down, and took the initiative to ask Ying to help Su Wen transport Empress Wei's body out of the city.

Under the scorching sun, the face of the young woman, who had been silent, became more and more pale, and finally, she shook her body and lay on the small coffin, unconscious.

Ignoring his grief, Wei Deng picked up the young woman and left, waving his hand to let out the servant who had been hiding elsewhere, and handed him a sharpened plank.

"Just use this mark!" Wei Deng gritted his teeth, "Someday ......"

Taking the board, which was not marked, the man said nothing, except for a silent salute.

Holding the young woman and walking back to the car parked behind the cottage in the distance, Wei Deng immediately ordered the emperor: "Go to the Huo family." ”

The three-wheeled carriage galloped down the road, and a messenger quickly overtook the carriage and went straight to Anmen. Approaching the city gate, he held aloft the Transmission Talisman, and the guards at the city gate quickly gave way.

Looking at this scene, Wei Deng's heart suddenly collapsed.

A sense of foreboding gradually permeated my heart......
