Gao Xian's eyes were a little cold, even cruel, "The food of the king, the worry of the loyal king." Even if she is my own daughter, no matter how dangerous it is, she has to make this trip. However," his voice changed, with a bit of strangeness that he didn't know why, "My cousin is deeply blessed, and he will definitely turn evil into good fortune." ”

When she heard this, the queen suddenly remembered the situation when Nianfu set the fire, and her eyes were momentarily confused.

At that time, it was simply like divine help! But how did she put such a fire?

※

What's more, ticking unhurriedly with the passage of time, such a calm and monotonous voice, forcing people to go crazy!

The sky was brightening little by little, and the atmosphere in the palace was extremely solemn.

The fire in the emperor's bedroom had long been extinguished, but although there were several charred corpses in the room, no one dared to ensure that there was an emperor there.

Moreover, the queen and the lord of Jiashan also mysteriously disappeared. Even the two girls brought into the palace by the lord of Jiashan disappeared as if they had wings.

But no one cares about this kind of little person, and what makes people even more anxious is where is the emperor? What now?

King Jin walked around anxiously, his eyes were already red, and he became more and more anxious like a lion who was about to go crazy at any time.

The bodies found in the dormitory and the number of missing people are barely matched, but who can prove their identity?

And Chengping, this slippery old minion is gone. Even his father's jade seal disappeared with him. I can't believe that King Jin is killed, and his father died like this.

But if Gao Xian hadn't died. Where the hell are you hiding?

He had personally inspected every brick in Gao Xian's dormitory, but he could not find any authentic entrance. Is he going to dig the whole palace three feet into the ground?

This is obviously impossible.

And as time approaches, the time from the last dynasty is getting closer and closer, and the truth about his forced palace last night will become more and more difficult to hide. So, what kind of reasonable explanation does he have to give everyone in order to convincingly support him as emperor?

The strategists under his command were also divided into two camps, and the quarrel was turned upside down.

The more radical one said directly, "Don't think about it anymore, just announce the death of the emperor, and pass it on to you." Ascend the throne first. Let's talk about the name. ”

But the more sensible ones will say. "There is not even a jade seal holy decree, how can you block the mouth of the staker? Even if he wants to ascend the throne, at least he has to make some preparations. ”

"But when you're ready, will you be able to shut up the world's mouths? It's always done. The infamy has already been borne. Why not just do it. Two endless, first ascend the throne and then talk? ”

"The question is that now that you are on the throne, can the subjects of the world be convinced?"

……

King Jin was confused when he heard this. Intuition is full of straw bales. None of them could come up with a good idea at a critical moment!

In the end, it was his brother-in-law Min Ye who came up with a credible idea, "The emperor died, isn't there still a queen mother in the palace?" As long as the Queen Mother recognizes the legitimacy of the prince, what do the subjects of the world have to say? ”

King Jin was refreshed when he heard this, and he wanted to go to the emperor's grandmother in person to administer justice to him, but someone from the palace came to report, "The queen mother is gone!" ”

King Jin suddenly became angry, "What do you mean that the Queen Mother is gone?" How could such a big living person not be seen? ”

But this is true, nothing has been touched in the Empress Dowager's palace, but Empress Dowager Mu disappeared so magically.

disappeared at the same time, and there was also a girl surnamed Kang who entered the palace to celebrate the festival.

King Jin wiped the neck of a palace maid in Renshou Palace with a sword, "Say! Where did the Queen Mother go? ”

But the palace maids and eunuchs cried, but none of them said clearly.

King Jin gritted his teeth, knowing that he had no way out.

Dad ran away, stepmother ran away, and now even his grandmother has run away, if he doesn't take action, then he can only become more and more passive in the end. There was no turning back from the bow, and he had no way back.

"Someone! The whole city is under martial law, beat the drum and go to court! ”

The purge began in the palace.

The princes, princesses, and concubines were all gathered and locked in different halls. Then, a group of soldiers in armor went to the mansions of the powerful and powerful ministers, and forced out the courtiers with swords and guns, who were still sleeping and shocked.

At this time, as usual, dung trucks came out of the palace and from thousands of households to the outskirts of the city with a full of filth.

Pingyang is an ancient capital, and the capital has been built for hundreds of years. As the territory grows larger and more people come in, so does the amount of garbage and feces that are produced every day.

In the past, the capital did not pay much attention to the disposal of fecal garbage in the early days, resulting in a worse and worse environment. It's really gray on a sunny day, mud on a rainy day, and it's still a stinky mud.

Later, not only the common people, but also the dignitaries and nobles also had many opinions on this, so the rules gradually formed. Whether it is the palace or the common people, every household is not allowed to litter, especially feces and other filthy things.

Every day before dawn, a manure truck will come to the whole city to collect the filth, and then pull it to a designated place outside the city to dump it. And this custom, even in the war years, except for a few days when it was too chaotic to go out, basically adhered to it. After all, no matter who becomes the emperor, he doesn't want to live in a bunch of garbage heaps, right?

This is the case in the palace, and the Pingwang Mansion is certainly no exception.

The same dung truck came in through the back door, collected the filth from the toilet, and went to dig out the common thatched house in the house.

These people come every day, wearing gloves and aprons, sleeves and hats, only showing their two eyes, even if they look at them every day, they don't know what they look like.

It's just that no one saw that today's manure collector took out a small note from a hidden gap in the wall of the thatched house, stuffed it into his sleeve, and then left.

At this time, on the outskirts of the city, a dung truck driving out of the palace drove to a secluded place and stopped, and the man who drove the car said, "Come out." ”

On the car, a young woman dressed as a palace maid jumped out of the car, not caring about the stench all over her body, and helped another rather old woman down, "Auntie, slow down." ”

The old woman, who was also dressed as a palace maid, covered her mouth and nose, her face was full of disgust, "It's really smoked to death......

"Auntie." The girl quickly interrupted her, "Let's go." ”

As she spoke, she took out a large ingot of silver and handed it to the man, "Thank you, big brother." ”

But the man took the money, but stopped them again, "Wait, what else?" ”

The girl was stunned, "What else?" It's not like it's good......"

The man sneered, "This ingot of silver can only be used for one person, you two, shouldn't you give a double share?" I know that when you come out of the palace, you must have hidden a lot of good things on you, but don't force me to be rude. ”

"You!" The old woman was furious, as if she wanted to scold, but the girl stopped her and said to the man, "We are all inferior slaves, and we have no money, otherwise we would not have thought of running away." If the eldest brother is really not satisfied, then this is the only one. ”

She took off one of her earrings and handed it over, "Why don't you leave me one so I can hire a car?" ”

But the man said, "You don't pretend to be garlic, just give me a pair!" ”

The girl couldn't, so she gave him all the earrings, and the man left satisfied.

Turning around, the old woman said angrily, "It's really a tiger falling into Pingyang and being bullied by dogs!" The queen mother of a country who mourns her family has fallen to such a point! Why don't you stay in the palace and see what that little beast can do to me? ”

The girl, that is, Kang Jierong, persuaded, "Queen Mother, the King of Jin even dares to do it to the emperor, who knows what else he has to do?" You don't need to be as knowledgeable as him. Let's find a place to settle down first, and then it's not too late to go back when the situation calms down. ”

Empress Dowager Mu just complained twice, she ran out, what else can she do if she is not bullied?

The grandson is unreliable, but fortunately her son is still reliable. arranged a few henchmen around her, and when Gao Xian had an accident and wanted to leave the palace, he asked someone to send a letter to her mother, asking her to quickly find a way to avoid it.

What Min Ye thought of, Gao Xian had already thought of. He is not in the palace, and the one who has the most right to speak is Empress Dowager Mu, and she has to avoid it quickly.

Originally, Empress Dowager Mu wanted to wait until dawn and arrange a team of people to escort her away, but Kang Jierong was so clever that she felt that it was inappropriate.

Things have come to this point, it must be extremely urgent, if it attracts attention with so many people, it is better to just escape with the two of them. First, it can be unobtrusive, and secondly, it can also establish a relationship with Empress Dowager Mu in tribulation.

In the end, under the persuasion of the loyal Shanyin, Empress Dowager Mu believed Kang Jierong, endured the stench, hid in the dung truck with her, and mixed out of the palace.

But where to go now, Kang Jierong was also momentarily confused.

She had thought of going out of town to find a carriage at random, or to go home, or to hide in some country. But she forgot that it was not yet dawn, and there were no carriages outside the city. Even if there were, the two of them wearing palace clothes on the road would definitely arouse suspicion.

What to do?

Fortunately, Empress Dowager Mu has lived a handful of years, although she has not suffered much, she has heard more about life experience.

"Let's find a farmer in a moment, and say that this garment was picked up, and ask someone to change it into coarse cloth clothes. Then hire a car and go to my brother's. He is also in the countryside now, not far from the capital, just to avoid it, and he should be called. ”

It's a good idea, but if you want to find a farmer who can borrow clothes, you have to walk.

Look at Kang Jierong's small body that can't be carried on her shoulders and can't be lifted in her hands, Empress Dowager Mu has no temper, so she has to take a condescending step and go!

※

And when the person who collected dung in the Pingwang Mansion poured the dung truck and finished work, he didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he went to a coffin shop in the capital that had been around for some years.

I touched the back door to the bottom of the window, knocked three long and two short, a total of five times, and the door opened. A middle-aged man welcomed him in, frowned, and said, "Why don't you even change your clothes?" Look at the smell! ”

The man said hurriedly, "Uncle, I don't have time to grind with you, hurry up and send the news out, but don't act rashly, the water in the palace is still deep!" (To be continued......)
