Chapter 498: The Wu Dynasty is shocked
Emperor Xuan didn't care about the question mark of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, so he took the four of them away.
The rest of the courtiers looked at each other, and only then did they understand more and more the importance of Fu Xiaoguan in His Majesty's heart!
Last night, the painting boat on the Qinhuai River was burned by bandits, and it is said that many people died, and it is said that these people came to assassinate the petty officials.
After a detailed investigation by the Jinling Mansion, these assassins were all Lunatic Cult bandits, and then, many people died in various parts of the capital, and the lights of the Jinling Mansion were not extinguished all night last night, and thousands of people in the north and south searched for this killer in the whole city without success, but found clues in the one hundred and nine people who died-
These people are actually the bandits of the Lunatic Cult hiding in Jinling City!
This damn Lunatic Cult, who are you provoking on the contrary? Why do you want to provoke Fu Xiaoguan?
Is that kid so easy to mess with?
Now it's okay, Your Majesty is making a big move because of this matter, and the western border army enters Xirong, and if this battle continues, how can the already empty treasury be supported?
The officials' faces were panicked, but Qin Huizhi hung his head and thought of another possibility-the four princes, I am afraid that there is enough power to fall into the hands of His Majesty!
……
……
The great court meeting of the Wu Dynasty Guanyun City Juhua Hall has just begun.
Empress Dowager Xi walked out from behind the curtain for the first time, she was dressed in the Empress Dowager costume and sat directly on the dragon chair.
Nangong Yiyu was startled, and Empress Dowager Xi had slowly opened her mouth:
"The mourning family is a miserable person."
"Since the death of Emperor Wen, the mourning family thought that the grandson Fu Xiaoguan was also dead, and they had no choice but to let the granddaughter of the mourning family, Wu Zhao, ascend the throne as the emperor."
"But the mourning family never thought that Fu Xiaoguan did not die, this is a great blessing, this Wu Dynasty has an orthodox inheritor after all."
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Empress Dowager Xi covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times, and then slowly glanced at the ministers, "You all want to welcome back the prince, this is your loyalty to the Wu Dynasty, if the petty official returns to the country, the mourning family will definitely take him to the Taimiao Temple to worship his ancestors, and he will enter the royal family's golden book." Why didn't the mournful family welcome back the petty officials? Do you think the mourners are unwilling? ”
Empress Dowager Xi paused, and let out a long breath with a bleak face:
"You're wrong, mourners...... There are words of suffering. ”
"Yesterday, the two ministers of the left and right jointly signed a letter to the hundred officials, saying that they would invite the mourning family to welcome back the prince, and the mourning family thought about it carefully for a night, and felt that it would not be beneficial for the Wu Dynasty to hide this matter any longer. Today, I am above this court, and the mourning family will explain it to you. ”
When the ministers heard this, they were suddenly shocked, could it be that there was something hidden in this?
Empress Dowager Xi's cloudy eyes glanced at the ministers again, and the ministers also raised their heads to look at her at this moment, all wanting to know what the reason was.
"This is a royal scandal, and the mourning family has always wanted to hide it, because once it is said, the royal face will be gone."
"The mourning family will ask you one last time, do you really want to know why the mourning family didn't welcome back the prince?"
Zhuo and his entourage glanced at Nangong Yiyu, and they were all puzzled.
It's a royal scandal, what else can it do?
Could it be that Fu Xiaoguan is not the son of the first emperor?
This is impossible, because this is the holy decree of the first emperor, and this Fu Xiaoguan grew up in Linjiang of the Yu Dynasty since he was a child, and with Wu Dalang by his side, it is impossible for him to be transferred.
What else could be done?
At this moment, there was a dull sound of footsteps outside the Juhua Palace.
Nangong Yiyu and the others looked back and were suddenly surprised-
Outside the huge Juhua Palace, thousands of blood-clothed guards stood neatly!
One by one, they had sparse faces, holding long knives, and looked indifferently at everyone in this temple.
"Don't panic......" a smile appeared on Empress Dowager Xi's old face, "Since it is involved in a royal scandal, this naturally cannot be spread." After you have heard it...... The mourners satisfy your curiosity, and of course, you have to pay a little price. ”
"What do you want?" Nangong Yiyu stepped forward and asked.
He didn't use honorific titles, but you, and this is to the point where they don't have to play with each other anymore.
"The mourning family has worked hard all their lives for this Wu Dynasty, and originally thought that they would enjoy the blessings when they are old, hey...... But God does not fulfill people's wishes, and the mourning family has to continue to be in charge of this Wu Dynasty for a few years. Don't look at the mourners like this, it's not what the mourners want. ”
She stood up tremblingly with a dragon's head cane, the two palace maids beside her supported her, and she waved her hand, "The mourning family can still move, you get out of the way." ”
She took two steps forward, raised her head to look at the dome of the Juhua Palace, and after a few breaths, she lowered her head and looked at Nangong Yiyu and Zhuo and his party.
"Wu Zhao, that is, Her Majesty the Empress, she didn't have any smallpox."
The ministers were in an uproar, as if they had forgotten the fear brought by the thousands of blood-clothed guards surrounding them behind them, and they all looked at Empress Dowager Xi one by one.
"Could it be that Her Majesty the Empress was imprisoned by you?" Nangong Yu asked, this was the worst result he could think of.
If Her Majesty the Empress is imprisoned by this old witch, this old witch will be able to rightfully hold the authority of the Wu Dynasty.
But Empress Dowager Xi shook her head and sighed: "What kind of person do you think the mourning family has become?" The mourning family's life was just eleven years ago when they did a ten-mile Pinghu tragedy, which was also the mourning family's efforts to stabilize the country of the Wu Dynasty. ”
"Wu Zhao is free and sound in Jinghu Villa, but ...... She's pregnant! ”
The ministers were suddenly shocked, and after hearing the news, the huge hall was suddenly silent-
Her Majesty is pregnant?
But Her Majesty the Empress is not married!
No wonder she stayed at Mirror Lake Villa without even showing her face once.
Who did this?
Nangong Yiyu thought of something in an instant, and his face turned pale suddenly.
Empress Dowager Xi looked at the appearance of this group of ministers at the moment with great enjoyment, a group of scumbags, who didn't have the ability to fight with the palace!
"Fu Xiaoguan, that day at the foot of the Snow Mountain, he was rescued by Wu Zhao."
She said this sentence slowly, and the ministers' eyes widened again, it goes without saying that the child conceived by Her Majesty the Empress is Fu Xiaoguan's!
What the hell!
It's really the biggest scandal of the royal family!
When Fu Xiaoguan came to Guanyun City, Wu Ling'er's liking for Fu Xiaoguan was well known.
If it weren't for Fu Xiaoguan becoming the son of Emperor Wen, everyone in the court believed that Her Royal Highness the princess would marry Fu Xiaoguan.
can make people, Fu Xiaoguan became Wu Ling'er's brother. But this special creation has made people again, this time it has made a human life, and it is actually the prince's species!
The prince and the princess...... This is really too spicy for the eyes, and the ministers don't even dare to think about it.
Zhuo and his entourage quickly calmed down and asked, "Is there any evidence?" ”
"The mourners know that you don't believe...... Come! Bring witnesses to court! ”
