173 The Yellow Sparrow (1)
This is a bureau, and I began to prepare to invite you into the urn a long time ago.
As early as when the two warlocks entered the palace, Empress Chen knew that they were the Xian Concubine faction that had been changed halfway. To tell the truth, Empress Chen also had plans to change people before, but when she saw that Concubine Xian was the first to strike, she would just plan it.
The older Emperor Yufeng gets, the more willful and suspicious he becomes, after the violent death of the first prince, he refuses to establish a prince, but is bent on pursuing immortality. But the princes are all bigger, and their hearts are getting bigger and bigger, and there is only one throne, and the emperor refuses to abdicate, so the princes naturally rely on their own abilities to rob them.
Anyway, the crown prince has not been established, and it makes sense for each prince to stand up, and several princes have a chance.
If Concubine Xian really killed the king, Queen Chen not only made a wish through her hand, but also had an extra handle of Concubine Xian in her hand.
Empress Chen and King Huai watched from the wall, and even secretly added fuel to the fire. Half a month ago, in the turmoil in Beijing, many courtiers fell from power, and those who filled the vacancies were all people from King Ke's lineage, and Chen Guogong and King Huai only turned a blind eye, but showed a lot of flaws and made a look of being suppressed in a hurry.
King Ke was confused by the false good situation, and after waiting for so many years, he finally couldn't wait. Taking advantage of King Jing's departure from Beijing, King Ke was impatient to conspire with Concubine Xian to force the palace.
But now that the situation has reversed, and now Empress Chen looks calm and composed, Concubine Xian feels that she is careless.
Concubine Xian and Empress Chen have known each other for nearly 30 years, and what kind of character Queen Chen is, Concubine Xian figured it out a few years ago. Although Concubine Li is aggressive, she can't really hurt her. Dogs that don't bark will bite. But it is really a portrayal of Empress Chen.
Queen Chen's best thing is forbearance, and her willingness to forbearance means that there will always be a day when the autumn queen will settle accounts. For example, when Concubine De was favored, Queen Chen gave in every possible way, and Queen Chen is still the master of the middle palace, and Concubine De died, and Prince Rui was stupid; For example, Concubine Jin's holy family is not declining, but after giving birth to Princess Hui'an, she will no longer have the possibility of giving birth to an imperial heir.
These are all the handiwork of Empress Chen, how can she get carried away and forget for a while.
Outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, there was a faint sound of fighting. The quiet night is lit up by firelight. Concubine Xian felt a chill in her heart. She was disheartened for a while, but suddenly laughed out loud: "Yes, I lost, so what." You Chen Luo may not be the last winner. We fought back and forth. In the end, I still can't fight for a dead man. ”
Concubine Li's face was complicated. The meaning of Concubine Xian's words could not be clearer anymore.
But Concubine Xian broke the point: "No matter how much you fight, it's just making wedding dresses for others." Your sons are dead! Concubine Xian laughed mockingly. When Concubine De died, King Jing had already remembered, did you say that he was thinking about his mother concubine, or was it your mother who didn't care about him for many years, and pretended to be sorry for him for the sake of profit. ”
Empress Chen's face was a little ugly, but she still held back her anger, but Princess Huihe's eyes were about to erupt with fire.
As if she didn't think it was enough to stimulate Empress Chen, Concubine Xian said as if she sighed: "If King Jing knows the cause of Concubine De's death, I'm afraid that there will be a good show staged, and I don't know if this palace has this blessing to see." ”
Empress Chen's face shook violently, and Princess Huihe finally couldn't help but speak: "I see that Concubine Xian is afraid that she will be scared stupid, come and send Concubine Xian to the side hall, no one is allowed to disturb without the will of the queen mother." ”
As soon as Princess Huihe's words fell, the four chamberlains standing behind Concubine Xian suddenly burst into flames, approaching Queen Chen and Princess Huihe. Empress Chen took a step back, and the people around her had already stepped forward to fight with those attendants, and the guards guarding outside also poured in when they heard the voice.
The four attendants beside Concubine Xian are indeed one in a hundred masters, but they can be entangled by more than a dozen guards, but they are also lacking in skills. In just a quarter of an hour, there was a decline and a dead soul under the knife.
Concubine Xian stood aside calmly, but there was a bit of grief on her face. Princess Huihe sneered, turned her head and ordered, "Don't hurry up and take Concubine Xian away!" ”
Later, the chamberlain on the side was afraid that Concubine Xian would say something secret, so before Concubine Xian opened her mouth, she quickly covered Concubine Xian's mouth and confessed, and then dragged Concubine Xian out of the main hall.
I didn't know what she was thinking, Queen Chen stood stunned for a while, and then she woke up. She personally stepped forward to help Concubine Li, and said with a warm smile: "Sister, please get up, I guess you have been frightened a lot tonight, Shouning Palace can't live anymore, and the palace general who wronged you tonight will be overnight." ”
Concubine Li thanked her, and then she was carried by the palace maid, and she turned around and walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
As soon as Concubine Li left, Queen Chen asked Princess Huihe to send away the idle people in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and after tidying up a little, she personally lifted the curtain and walked to the bed.
Guarding next to Emperor Yufeng was Wan Nei, who had been serving by Emperor Yufeng's side for five years, and at this time he was holding a medicine bowl to feed Emperor Yufeng spoonful by spoonful, as if he had never heard the fight outside.
Seeing Empress Chen come in, Wan Nei stood up and saluted, and stood respectfully in the corner.
Emperor Yufeng's mind was still a little vague before, but now he has used a bowl of medicine, and his spirit is slightly better. The so-called slightly better, but it is just to be able to lie on the bed and move.
"Your Majesty, Prince Ke is forcing the palace, Concubine Xian intends to kill the king, the emperor must not tolerate it......" Empress Chen stood beside the bed and said condescendingly to Emperor Yufeng.
Emperor Yufeng also listened to some of the words outside, but he couldn't say a word, so he could only make an intermittent "ho-ho" sound.
"The concubine forgot that the emperor is not lightly ill now, and I am afraid that she is also weak." Empress Chen chuckled, "In this case, the emperor should recuperate with peace of mind, and the political affairs will be handed over to King Jing." Qin Mingyue, a slut, killed our Qian'er, I must make her worse than dead. Why don't you let her taste the white-haired person sending the black-haired person tonight! Your Majesty, do you think it's okay? ”
Emperor Yufeng naturally couldn't answer Empress Chen, but the "ho-ho" sound in his throat became urgent.
Empress Chen immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes, and said softly: "The emperor also agreed, didn't he?" The concubines will be prepared, and everything will be done according to the emperor's will. ”
Emperor Yufeng turned his head to the side angrily, Empress Chen didn't care about his emotions, and only let Wan Neishi prepare pen and ink by herself. She wrote two holy decrees with her left hand, and the handwriting turned out to be exactly the same as that of Emperor Yufeng. When the ink was dry, Empress Chen asked people to take the jade seal to cover it.
Wan Nei, who was standing on the side, glanced at Empress Chen's hand imperceptibly, and then quietly withdrew his eyes.
Empress Chen looked at Emperor Yufeng fixedly, and only said after a while: "Let's all step down, this palace wants to talk to the emperor alone for a while." ”
Seeing Princess Huihe's eyes flickering and glancing at Emperor Yufeng, Empress Chen said again: "Huihe, you go to the side hall and knock Concubine Li a few more words." Since the emperor was taken care of by Concubine Li in the past, I will let her come over later. ”
Hui Hegong took the initiative to move his mouth, but he didn't say a word after all.
No matter how much Empress Chen resented Emperor Yufeng, Emperor Yufeng never treated her lightly, and she even had the memory of sitting on Emperor Yufeng's lap to learn to paint red, which was a pampering that no one had ever had.
Back then, she insisted on marrying the Marquis of Jinxiang, and Empress Chen thought that Ke Yunyan was an embroidered pillow and was not a good match, so she strongly objected, but Emperor Yufeng still agreed.
Princess Huihe still remembers that Emperor Yufeng smiled at that time: "You are my daughter, since you want to do what you want, you want to do whatever you want, and your father will bear everything for you." ”
Later, as Emperor Yufeng said, even if she ruthlessly disposed of all the women around Ke Yunyan, even if she forcibly left a pair of children in the princess's mansion, even if she made her in-laws angry half to death, Emperor Yufeng never questioned her for half a sentence. even felt that the Marquis of Jinxiang and Mrs. Marquis of Jinxiang slandered the princess and beat the Marquis of Jinxiang.
Princess Huihe looked at Emperor Yufeng lying on the bed with some pity, and was ruthless, so she led a group of people out of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
She also had no choice......
From King Ke and Ping Yuan Hou into the palace with soldiers and horses, Lord Chen led the soldiers of the guards to turn against each other, and King Huai led the army into the palace to quell the chaos, to King Ke's success in just one hour. Although most of King Ke's soldiers and horses have been ambushed, in the end, King Ke himself has not been caught, and the search from the front hall to the harem is still slowly narrowing down.
Not only that, King Huai also sent a lot of people out of the palace to search. And the search is just an excuse, and Empress Chen's faction is just using this excuse to eliminate dissidents and kill King Ke's comrades.
There was a shortage of soldiers in Beijing, and the people in the palace were even more panicked. The palace doors were closed tightly, for fear of causing trouble.
Wan Nei walked out of the Heart Cultivation Hall and squinted his eyes against the cold night wind and looked around. Presumably, the Heart Nourishing Hall has not been searched yet, except for the whistling wind, the surrounding silence is a little terrifying.
Wan Nei Shi walked to a secluded corner, took out a bamboo tube the size of his index finger from his arms, and opened the lid on his head, only to see a stream of white gas rushing out of the bamboo tube, fluttering and scattering around. Then he dug a hole out of the stone for a darker bamboo tube and buried it carefully.
After dealing with these, Wan Nei let out a long sigh of relief, in such a cold weather, there was actually some light sweat on his forehead, which showed that he was very nervous.
Less than a quarter of an hour after Wan Nei Shi released the white gas, in a dilapidated house in Beijing, a middle-aged man with a stern face carried a small cage into the door of the inner room.
He put the cage on the table, and then took a step back, with a little joy on his face: "Lord Wang, this female worm has been extremely excited since just now, and has been trying to go in the direction of the palace, presumably burning white jade incense." ”
In the cage is a pair of sub-insects named "Xunxiang", the female worm can smell a white jade-scented spice thousands of miles away, and the sub-worm can smell a red jade-scented spice thousands of miles away. Now looking at this female worm, she can't stand the temptation, and desperately wants to go in the direction where Bai Yuxiang is.
After looking carefully at "Xunxiang" for a while, the mother worm was very irritable, while the child worm was resting on the side. Zheng Rui nodded, and for the first time in more than half a month, there was a smile on his face. (To be continued......)
