A moment later, Wei Changkong and his attendants appeared in front of Chunjia one after the other.

The chamberlain stepped in, and when he saw Wei Changkong there, he didn't speak, but moved his steps and went to the side to serve.

"You don't want to see Uncle Wang?" Seeing this, Chunjia ordered, "Let's go, Brother Zhen is here, and I will accompany him." ”

Wei Changkong thanked him, saluted, and went out.

The emperor then asked, "What about people?" ”

"Your Majesty, the princess refused to open the door, but only told the slave maid that she understood what His Majesty meant." The chamberlain didn't know why, and said, "Then I stuffed this letter and gave it to the slave maid, saying that it was for Your Majesty." ”

He was a little worried that he would incur Chunjia's wrath because he failed to bring the Lu family.

But there is no way, after all, this is the regent's other courtyard, the Lu family refuses to open the door, and Chunjia has not expressed his exact stance to punish the crime, how dare he be disrespectful to the princess?

"Letter?" Chunjia raised his eyebrows, and when Yan Yin checked that there was no problem, he took it into his hand, just as soon as he saw it, his face suddenly became gloomy!

Based on the experience of coming to the other courtyard today, the emperor was not surprised that the Lu family refused to come over to meet him, and only left a letter.

In his mind, this letter was probably just the words of Tuogu, at most a little pleading and explanation.

Who knew that Lu's opening was: "What His Majesty ordered, the concubine has been completed, and the concubine knows that she is guilty, and she has nothing else to ask for, but to shake the children and children under her knees......"

Chunjia didn't look at it directly, turned his head and instructed Yan Yin, "You send a few people to invite the princess over." ”

However, when this group of people went to the back, they found that the Lu family had already drunk the poison.

The corpse still has residual warmth, but there is no breath at all.

Gong Xiangzhen was just stimulated by his mother's murder of his father, and when he heard the news again, he fainted on the spot.

Chun Jia's face was pale, under the banner of tracking down the motive of the Lu family's murder of the regent, he urgently transferred the Imperial City Division to the scene, and carefully searched the inside and outside of the courtyard, especially the residence of the Lu family, but in the end only found a bottle of poison in the Lu family's dressing table, and the maids who served the Lu family every day, basically all of them were hanging behind the beam, and the result of the imperial doctor's examination was that the time for these people to commit suicide was about the same as the time for the Lu family to take poison, and it should be the master and servant who went on the road together.

Confirming that there was nothing else that should not be there except for the letter in his hand, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, he must not be charged with murdering Uncle Wang.

Uncle and nephew, the nephew's uncle who killed him, at most was discussed a few words, and he was a tyrant in private, and he couldn't tolerate the reputation of his relatives, but Chunjia was not the blood of the gods, since he was in power, the Ji family of the Yue family who supported him to come to power, and his mother Ji Sheng were cool successively, at this time, if the death of the regent was also related to him, the attack on him can be imagined!

The most important thing is......

This time it really wasn't what he did!

The regent is not a fool, how can he let people reach for his step-concubine?

When his uncle and nephew conspired against the Ji family in private, although the regent returned part of the Imperial City Division at the request of Chunjia, the manpower related to the safety of his own mansion was never contaminated by Chunjia!

After all, this uncle Wang has been in charge of the Imperial City Department for many years, even if the means of the city are not as good as the emperor, Chunjia will not underestimate his control of his own mansion.

It's because Chunjia didn't think about doing anything in the regent's back house.

Although he is the Son of Heaven, as the power is recycled step by step, the manpower, material and financial resources that can be mobilized are gradually stronger than those of the regent, but after all, the pro-government has only been five years so far, and the accumulation is limited, so he doesn't want to send someone to bury nails in the regent palace.

Anyway, in Chunjia's plan, as long as he is steady and has a righteous name, he gradually disintegrates the Gu family's control over the Dingbei Army...... The remaining political maneuvers were enough to cool the regent.

Originally, the regent had no successor and could not hide the decline, so why bother to use ghost tricks to increase the risk of damage to his reputation?

The results are interesting now...... Who is so bold to pretend to be himself and fool the Lu family?

Or, Lu was actually killed, and someone tried to mislead the Son of Heaven under the guise of her suicide note?

Chunjia thought of the chamberlain and said that he hadn't seen Lu's face before, so he only said a few words through the door, took the letter and left, squinting slightly.

…… It was a long time late for the palace to hear the news, and at this time the regent had already woken up, but he was weak and couldn't speak, so he could only listen to what Chunjia said to him.

Gongxiang Ruo didn't mention what mood he was in at this time, in short, he fainted again after a while.

Whether he was weak or stunned may only know himself.

During this period, some of his subordinates rushed over to visit, but there were not many of them, which was also a helpless thing, after all, many people who supported him in the past two years began to waver, this time the regent looked at it and couldn't do it, the Son of Heaven was still guarding by the side like a good nephew, who went to visit at this time, isn't this waiting for the Son of Heaven to settle accounts in the future?

Unless it is really loyal, or it is a part of the old department that cannot be whitewashed, others have doubts and dare not come forward.

This situation made Chunjia feel better.

Following the collapse of the Ji family, another faction in the DPRK and China, and the most troublesome faction, is also about to fall apart.

Such a distance from his true Imperial Universe naturally took a big step.

The emperor left in the evening, and before leaving, he specially left the imperial doctor, saying that it was for the regent, although the imperial doctor repeatedly said that he was powerless to return to heaven, but at least he did his best to obey the destiny of heaven.

It was only because my mother had fainted that I woke up and heard the bad news that my father was dying, and I almost fainted again.

He was pinched left and right and fed soothing soup, and he sent Chunjia very reluctantly, and even subconsciously wanted to pull Chunjia's sleeve along the way.

After all, he is the only one who can be in charge of the other courtyard at this time.

Gong Xiangzhen, who has been hidden in the inner courtyard since birth, and does not even have a little friend to play with, is very scared.

"I can't stay here overnight." Chunjia looked pitiful, and finally said, "Do you know about your eldest brother?" ”

Gong Xiangzhen nodded slightly with red eyes.

The emperor said: "Such a big thing has happened, and you can't help but show up your brother and sister-in-law." It's just that they've always kept a low profile and may not know it yet. Well, I'll have them called. ”

He sent someone to shout, but Gong Xiangxiao didn't want to come.

At the time of holding the lamp like this, Gong Xiangxiao and Yin Nuluo hurriedly arrived, and after learning that it had passed, Yin Nuluo was also gone, she was just a daughter-in-law, and she had no feelings with the regent, the princess, and the step-concubine, and her face was serious at the moment, and Tai was thinking about what kind of impact this matter would have on her little couple; Gong Xiangxiao gave Gong Xiangxiao a kick with his robe, and almost kicked the unsuspecting brother off the corridor.

Seeing this, the left and right hurried to help, Yin Nuluo was also startled, and hurriedly grabbed her husband who still wanted to do it: "Husband's Day mourns!" Isn't it sad and too confused? That's my brother! ”

I know that you don't like Gong Xiangzhen and don't like his mother, but is it appropriate to do it to your half-brother in front of everyone's eyes?

Especially Gong Xiangzhen is only ten years old!

Gong Xiangxiao's eyes were red, and he shook Yin Nuluo and staggered, pointing at Gong Xiangzhen who looked terrified, and sneered: "I still think that the Lu family is hiding so tightly and so carefully what kind of talented thing!" It's just a yellow-mouthed child! It's okay to drive me out, and now for him, even ...... ......"

His throat rolled, and he seemed to choke, but he immediately took it and said, "Even the regent has an accident because of him, such an ominous person who troubles the court, and the face is here?!" Get out of here with me!! ”

"Husband!" Yin Nuluo can't wait to go up and scrape his two ears to be sober and sober, even if he hates the Lu family again, now that the Lu family is dead, he was still exposed to death by his own son, Gong Xiangzhen did such a thing, and he is so young, I am afraid that there is no reason to pinch him when he is the eldest brother in the future?

No matter how resentful you are, isn't it good to go back and settle accounts slowly? Do you have to go in front of so many people at this time, and you can't tolerate your brother's reputation if you leave behind your father and stepmother?

She grabbed Gong Xiangxiao's sleeve stiffly, "Husband, my father is lying on the couch, I must be thinking of you at this time!" Let's go see my father first, and we'll talk about other things later, huh? ”

mentioned the regent again and again, but Gong Xiangxiao didn't say anything more, and went first with a flick of his sleeves.

Yin Nuluo looked at his back, but she didn't catch up immediately, but Wen Yan apologized to Gong Xiangzhen: "Your eldest brother has actually been thinking about you, but he hasn't been able to see you for various reasons...... He was too heartbroken just now, not for you, for the sake of flesh and blood, don't go to your heart. ”

“…… Well. Gong Xiangzhen tried to hold back his tears, lowered his head, and whispered, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Yin Nuluo met him for the first time, and she wasn't sure if he really didn't mind or held a grudge, but at this time, she didn't have time to stay for a long time, so she followed the pace of Gong Xiangxiao and went to see the regent.

This night, the soldiers in the courtyard were chaotic and not mentioned, and there was also a commotion in the palace.

Everyone up and down is talking about the situation of the regent, and what kind of grudge does Concubine Lu have to poison her husband?

And the person who has been forgotten for a few days by the harem of the former dynasty has also been raised, that is, Lu Chuncao.

Yun Fenghuang sighed and said, "It's still good to be the empress dowager." ”

As soon as the news reached the palace, the Empress Dowager summoned Lu Chuncao to meet her.

At that time, Chunjia was still guarding the regent in the other courtyard as a caring nephew.

There is no one in the harem to stop the Queen Mother.

Until this time, Chunjia has returned, and Lu Chuncao is still on the side of the Queen Mother.

And after Chunjia knew about it, he also passed.

They didn't separate until midnight, and Lu Chuncao was left in the palace for a night, because he was a eunuch, it didn't matter.

The next day, all the ministers knew about it, and they came to the palace to see Chunjia together.

The monarchs and ministers discussed for most of the night, and the lunch was almost over, and finally came to a unanimous conclusion, that is, the step-concubine Lu was poisoned by the Haler faction, so that she went insane and mistakenly killed the regent.

Anyway, the relationship between the dynasty and the Hale is there, and it doesn't matter what dirty water is splashed.

After the matter of the regent, who has not been alive for two days, is finalized, the following things are simple, nothing more than the aftermath.

It wasn't difficult, but there was a controversy among the courtiers: the controversy over the succession to the regent's title.

It is impossible for the regent to continue the inheritance, and the courtiers who are dead do not dare to mention this at this time.

Even some of the courtiers of the Regent's faction breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the regent fell so abruptly, there was no tragic and ugly fight, as long as they quickly arrived and left, there was still a great possibility of a good death.

Everyone was in favor of using the Lord Yi before the regent as the title of his son's succession.

Chunjia has no objection to this, anyway, there are many vassal kings of the country, as long as he does not threaten his throne, the gesture of treating Xiaozong's daughter well has been done for all these years, Minghui has endured it like that, no matter how much the regent hates it, Gong Xiangxiao and Gong Xiangzhen, the two younger brothers, the emperor's perception is okay.

Give a vassal lord to show that there is nothing wrong with the kindness of his own divine sect's blood and bones.

But as to which son should inherit the title, the courtiers were divided.

Some people think that Gong Xiangxiao is the eldest son of the Yuan Concubine, even if he asked to abolish the position of the prince and almost broke with the regent's palace, but Lu Jifei played a lot of roles in this, and now Lu Jifei even poisoned the regent herself...... Whether it was bewitched or something else, if it weren't for Concubine Lu Ji, Gong Xiangxiao would be the natural heir to the prince.

Now that Lu Jifei's conspiracy has been exposed, it is time to let Gong Xiangxiao inherit the throne.

However, some people feel that there is something wrong with Gong Xiangxiao, although the regent is a little cold to this eldest son, but the father is a high power, why do you always spoil his son, who is not small? When a son has no tolerance for his father at all, it is also unfilial. Especially the fact that Gong Xiangxiao has not taken his wife back to visit his parents since he got married, which shows that he is narrow-minded and self-isolation from his father's family! In this way, he has asked himself to abandon the position of the prince, why can he inherit the king?

This title should be given to Gong Xiangzhen!

The two sides are fighting back and forth, and what makes Chunjia almost laugh is that many of the courtiers who supported Gongxiang Zhen's succession revealed their tacit intentions.

…… Obviously, they may not really think that this prince should give Gong Xiangzhen, but they suspect that Chun Jia did this thing of the regent and his wife, Lu Jifei died so coincidentally, maybe it was to reach an agreement with Chun Jia, what else can this mother do this for besides for her son?

So maybe the holy will is the public shock?

Chunjia ignored the dispute below, and asked Yan Yin sideways: "Haven't found out yet?" ”

Yan Yin said in fear: "The Imperial City Division is still investigating, but the people who are waiting for the Lu clan are gone......

Originally, the emperor had no infiltration into the regent queen's backyard, and at this time, all the Lu family's attendants were dead, and it could be said that there was no proof of death, even if the Imperial City Division was in a hurry, it would be difficult to find out the culprit who was pretending to be Chunjia's name.

Seeing that the emperor's face was not very good, Yan Yin hurriedly whispered, "Now that the regent is gone, the rest of the people will definitely abandon the darkness and turn to the light if they are not blinded by lard, and there may be clues when the time comes." ”

The Emperor could not control the affairs of the Regent's Mansion because the Regent was the owner of the Imperial City Division.

But now that he is cold, it is impossible for all of these people to accompany him to the cold, so he has to take refuge in Chunjia's side, maybe he can find the truth?

It's just that these people are bound to be in a mess now, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to produce results for a while.

Chunjia frowned, and ordered lightly: "Let Sun Yu be sharper." ”

The goose whispered.

Seeing that there was still an argument below, the emperor was annoyed, and made a decision directly: "Since the young and the old are orderly, the edict will be the prince and the king." ”

In view of the lessons of the previous dynasty dragged down by a huge clan, the dynasty was very harsh on the canonization of the clan.

If you can't inherit the prince, unless you are particularly favored by the emperor, such as the Marquis of Shouning before Gongxiangxiao, it will be an idle clan.

Chunjia decided from the moment he saw Lu's suicide note that he couldn't give Gongxiang Zhen too many benefits, lest the world suspect that he instructed Lu to kill the regent.

But who instructed the Lu family to find out about this matter after all, so his mind changed, and he ordered, "Gong Xiangzhen is young, he has lost his mother, and his biological father is already bedridden...... I have mercy on him! After the imperial heir returns to the palace, he will enter school, so let him go with him when the time comes. ”

This means that after the regent is cold, he will raise Gongxiang Zhen in front of him, which is equivalent to the treatment of a prince.

The courtiers understood that the emperor's move was not only to show his generosity and fraternity, but also to pinch the public to take him as a hostage, and not allow the regent's remnants to make waves.

This is the right thing to do, and no one objects to it.

So it was decided.

When the harem heard the news, they all sighed softly.

Since the Ji family is cool, everyone knows that there must be a battle between royal uncles and nephews.

This time, the regent fell so quickly, it was like giving Chunjia points, and most people were very happy that the harem of the previous dynasty was unexpected.

After all, there are only a few people like Yun Fenghuang who like to make trouble, and everyone thinks that this kind of hurdle has passed without major turmoil, which is good.

Perhaps the most unacceptable thing is that Gong Xiang, who is standing in front of everyone, is shocked, but to be honest, no one cares what he thinks.
