Chapter 290: The War Ends
Jingxi thirty-four autumn.
Prince Lao Gong and Prince Gong led troops to besiege the south gate of Kyoto City, Shangguan Ting led troops to besiege the north gate of Kyoto City, Shangguan Xi led troops to besiege the west gate of Kyoto City, and Zhong Tinghao led troops to besiege the east gate.
Emperor Jingxi sat on the dragon chair, his face was calm, but his heart was full of fear, he looked down at the courtiers below and said, "What do you have to panic about, those are just chaotic ministers and thieves......"
Before he finished speaking, a little eunuch reported outside the main hall: "Emperor, Emperor, the gate of Kyoto has been breached, and those thieves are rushing to the palace gate with their troops. ”
Emperor Jingxi commanded: "Do according to the plan." "He wants to wash the palace gate in blood.
The dark guard in the shadows led the order and flew away.
However, the secret guard was assassinated before he could get far from the Jinluan Palace.
Zhong Xuanlan glanced at the secret guard who had died of anger, and said to Shangguan Ting, "It's time for us to deal with our affairs." It's time for the day to be over. ”
Shangguan Ting nodded.
The two of them carried light work to the Fengyi Palace of the Empress Dowager Zhong.
At this time, Fengyi Palace was in a mess, and the palace people fled around with their burdens, lacking the solemnity of the past.
Zhong Xuanlan and the others avoided the palace people and entered the main hall directly, and saw that the Empress Dowager Zhong, who was sitting at the top, had lost her former superiority, and now she was like a woman in the market, Zhong Xuanlan hooked the corners of her lips and smiled mockingly.
Empress Dowager Zhong patted the phoenix chair and scolded: "Zhong Xuanlan, Shangguan Ting, you are bold, don't hurry up and kneel down when you see this palace." ”
Zhong Xuanlan said: "What your mother and son owe, it should be repaid today, bring people with you, we should go and let everyone witness the true faces of this mother and son." ”
Shangguan Ting glanced at Zhong Xuanlan and knew that this person couldn't work, so he could only resign himself to stepping forward to knock the Empress Dowager Zhong unconscious, and then carrying someone to follow Zhong Xuanlan to the Jinluan Palace.
At this time, the four-way army had already broken into the palace, and the leader had already entered the Jinluan Hall with his soldiers, controlled the Jinluan Palace, and waited for Zhong Xuanlan and their arrival.
As soon as Zhong Xuanlan and the others stepped into the Jinluan Palace, everyone cast their eyes, and Zhong Xuanlan said: "Please come to witness today and see who this throne belongs to?" ”
Emperor Jingxi said: "This throne was passed to me by the first emperor, Zhong Tinghao, Prince Lao Gong, Prince Mu, Prince Yongcheng, do you want to rebel?" ”
Several people ignored Emperor Jingxi's question, and only looked at Zhong Xuanlan, waiting for her to speak.
Zhong Xuanlan didn't sell it, and told the things of the year.
In that year, the remnants of the Mobei resistance to the imperial family disguised themselves as assassins and broke into the heavily guarded palace to assassinate during the peace talks of the Five Kingdoms, resulting in the death of the county lord of Xinyi.
It was not only because of the information provided by the Zhong family, but also because Emperor Jingxi, Empress Dowager Zhong's mother and son, and Emperor Nanliang colluded to murder Prince Lao Mu.
Prince Lao Mu is not the son of Empress Dowager Zhong, he is in charge of the Huwei army, has great military achievements, and has a high prestige.
He was born to Emperor Jinghe and the person he loved the most.
Emperor Jinghe traveled to various countries as the crown prince, met Princess Nanliang (the aunt of the Seven Princes), fell in love with her, and died because Princess Nanliang's brother failed to seize the throne.
In the same year, Emperor Jinghe met the Empress Dowager Zhong and found that she was very similar to Princess Nanliang, and found that the Zhong family was rich and rivaled the country, so he ordered to marry the Empress Dowager Zhong.
A year after marriage, Empress Dowager Zhong gave birth to a child, who was Emperor Jingxi.
But at this time, Princess Nanliang's maid brought the old prince Mu, who was just three months old, to Emperor Jinghe, who concealed the child's birth month and asked the child to be the child of the Empress Dowager Zhong.
Empress Dowager Zhong obeyed her will and recognized the child.
Emperor Jingxi said: "You are talking nonsense, the second child is my own brother. ”
Empress Dowager Zhong also said: "Zhong Xuanlan, what evidence do you have for this?" ”
Shangguan Ting threw a few letters in front of the two of them and said, "Do you know why I am willing to lead my troops to the border of Southern Liang?" Let me tell you, for I am here to find evidence that you have assassinated my father. ”
Zhong Xuanlan didn't want to ink with the mother and son at all, so she flew to the second big pillar on the right side of the hall from the outside to the inside, pressed a button, and a big groove appeared in an instant, and a bright holy decree appeared in front of her eyes, she reached out and picked up the holy decree, landed softly, and then showed the holy decree in the eyes of everyone.
When some old ministers recognized that this was the handwriting of the former emperor, it also confirmed the authenticity of this holy decree, and the former emperor wanted to give the crown prince to Prince Lao Mu.
This shows that the former emperor favored Prince Lao Mu, not the current emperor.
Facing everyone's questioning eyes, Emperor Jingxi and Empress Dowager Zhong knew that the general trend was gone, and Emperor Jingxi wanted to commit suicide but was stopped by Zhong Xuanlan.
Zhong Xuanlan used his internal force to swing away the dagger in Emperor Jingxi's hand, and said to Emperor Jingxi and Empress Dowager Zhong: "Your future life will be spent in a dark cell, so that you can be worthy of those who died." ”
It's not terrible to die, it's even more photogenic to be alive!
She wanted them to live every day in the face of the phantoms of those they had killed, to live forever in pain!
When Emperor Jingxi's mother and son were taken down, everyone began to discuss the ownership of the throne.
Some people support Shangguan Ting, some people support Prince Mu, and some people support Zhong Tinghao......
Shangguan Ting looked at the chaotic scene and said: "This king has always liked to travel in the mountains and rivers, and he doesn't like that position, and this king has a candidate in his heart, and that is the county lord of Xinlan." ”
As soon as his words fell, Prince Gong's father and son glanced at each other, and Prince Gong looked at Zhong Xuanlan and said, "I, Prince Gong's Mansion, support Xinlan's succession." ”
At this time, Shangguan Xi also said: "My Yongcheng Royal Mansion supports the succession of the Xinlan County Lord. ”
With the support of the three kings, Zhong Tinghao said: "Daughter, go, my father and your brother will give you this position today." ”
With the support of military power, Wenchen made a choice and supported Zhong Xuanlan to succeed to the throne.
In the end, five days after everyone chosen, Zhong Xuanlan succeeded to the throne.
After the matter was decided, Zhong Xuanlan did not stay in the palace, but returned to the Zhong Mansion and returned to the Shuangxuan Courtyard.
Looking at the yard that was cleaned by the spring solstice, the two children were playing in the yard, just like she and Zhong Xuanli in the past, Zhong Xuanlan hooked the corners of his lips and smiled.
When Bingtang saw Zhong Xuanlan, he immediately crawled over to her and shouted, "Mother, you're back." ”
And the gourd staggered towards Zhong Xuanlan, stumbling and shouting: "Mother, mother." ”
Zhong Xuanlan hugged the rock candy, put the person down, reached out to hold the gourd that was looking at her with blank eyes, and said with a smile: "The gourd, it's called aunt." Aunt. ”
"Let him call you mother!"
Zhong Xuanlan turned around and saw Amumu, and when he looked out again, he didn't find Ah Ling and Zhong Xuanli, so he retracted his gaze in disappointment and said, "What do you want to do in the future?" In the past two years, Amumu has served as a military advisor in Zhong Tinghao's military camp, and now the war is peaceful, so Zhong Xuanlan wants to arrange Amumu's way to give Ah Ling an explanation.
"Do you need me to be the national teacher?" The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden. Although he understood that Zhong Xuanlan would not do that, he couldn't help but still want to ask.
Zhong Xuanlan said: "You really don't plan to go back?" ”
Amumu shook his head, Ah Ling was born prematurely because of Zhong Xuanli's disappearance that day, and died after giving birth to a child.
Before he died, let him find Zhong Xuanli, but now that Zhong Xuanli has not returned, their children are also here, and he doesn't want to leave here for the time being.
Zhong Xuanlan said: "In that case, I will let you take the position of national teacher." ”
Amumu nodded, stretched out his hand towards the gourd and said, "Come, uncle hug." ”
Hulu looked at Zhong Xuanlan and said, "Mother's hug." He turned his back to Amumu.
Amumu looked at the gourd and felt that he was disgusted, and was about to speak, when Bingtang said, "Uncle hug." ”
Amumu smiled and hugged the rock candy, "It's better to rock candy, uncle will take you to buy something delicious." ”
Rock Candy said: "No, just give me silver!" The amount of silver should not be less than ten taels. ”
"You're a little bit, and you still know silver?"
"Of course......"
Looking at the two of them who were getting farther and farther away, Zhong Xuanlan looked down at the gourd that also wanted to go out, and instructed Chunzhi: "Chunzhi hold the gourd and follow!" ”
Chun Zhi took the order, hugged the gourd and followed Amumu and they went out to play.
Zhong Xuanlan turned around and walked towards the Shuangxuan Courtyard.
Everything here is unusually familiar, but the person is gone.
Xuan Nian, wait for me, I will definitely find you!
