916. Playing the Queen Mother

That was already the next day.

At this time, the letter passed by Liu Hongyi before had already fallen in Changsha City.

Yi Shiyu hurriedly went to the imperial study with the letter in her hand to see Zhao Dongting.

I only went outside the imperial study, and I heard the guards outside the imperial study say that the emperor had gone to the main hall to convene the ministers to discuss the matter.

Yi Shiyu went to the main hall again.

Outside the main hall, you can see Zhao Dongting sitting on the throne wearing a dragon robe. Lu Xiufu, Su Liuyi, Chen Wenlong, Zhang Xizai, Wang Wenfu and others are all listed.

There are still two people sitting next to Zhao Dongting, the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing and the Empress Dowager Yang Shufei.

It's just that the atmosphere in the hall at this time seems a little absurd.

The Queen Mother didn't know what was crazy, and she was crying and shouting in the hall at the moment.

She's forcing the palace.

In the palace these days, she didn't know what method to use, or to gather some pretentious "ministers".

Now these people are headed by her, and they are asking Zhao Dongting to issue an edict on the grounds that Zhao Dongting sent someone to assassinate Zhao Xian, the domestic people are full of grievances, and the chaotic people are causing trouble.

The Empress Dowager Quan is afraid that she also understands that except for Zhao Dongting, no one in the entire Great Song Dynasty is qualified to ascend the throne. It is impossible for her to bring down Zhao Dongting, and if Zhao Dongting wants to make an edict against herself, she can finally speak out evilly.

Because of Zhao Xian's death, this woman is obviously extremely crazy.

She obviously didn't think about how much turmoil would arise in the Great Song Dynasty if Zhao Dongting issued an edict against herself.

The people's grievances will not be quelled because of Zhao Dongting's guilty edict, if Zhao Dongting says that Zhao Xian was assassinated by himself, he will have no prestige, which will only make the Great Song Dynasty more chaotic.

Of course, Zhao Dongting would not have agreed to the Empress Dowager.

It's just that in the face of this sassy woman, and those Qingliu who seem to be loyal and virtuous, but are actually ignorant, they are a little helpless.

Lu Xiufu and others are still waiting.

Zhao Xian's death, there is no definite statement yet. Lu Xiufu and others didn't reveal this matter in their hearts.

If Zhao Dongting couldn't help but be angry at this time, and punished the Empress Dowager Quan and these Qingliu who still had a lot of prestige among the people, the government and the opposition, what would they think?

What will those who read the book think?

Zhao Dongting, who was sitting on the throne, had a gloomy face, as if the sky was about to pour heavy rain.

Zhao Xian's assassination, he was originally mud in the crotch of his pants, and it was not clear whether it was or.

Now, Wu Amiao is already a person from Wu Dingtang, and he can't say anything.

That is, fortunately, Wu Amiao was covered in blood when he entered the palace, and Xie Daoqing and others did not pay attention. Otherwise, now I am afraid that Xie Daoqing and others are like the Queen Mother.

Wu Amiao didn't make a move at that time, but after all, he followed Taki!

Seeing that the ministers were all embarrassed, Zhao Dongting waved his hand, intending to let everyone retreat like this.

He originally summoned Lu Xiufu and the others to discuss the matter of raising food and salaries to send to Liu Hongyi's army, because he didn't know how long it would take to force the Dali army back. Now that the grain storage depots are burning, it is always better to prepare for this kind of thing in advance. It's just that now the Queen Mother Quan and others are making trouble, and there is nothing to say about this matter.

And just when Zhao Dongting waved his hand to retreat, Yi Shiyu happened to hurriedly walk into the main hall.

He could also see that the atmosphere in the hall was wrong, but he had a military emergency report in his hand, so he wouldn't care so much.

Zhao Dongting once told him that if there was an urgent report of the military situation, even if he, the emperor, fainted, he would have to find a way to wake him up.

"Your Majesty!"

Yi Shiyu entered the hall and knelt on the ground.

His appearance made the cry of the Queen Mother and the condemnation of the Qingliu come to an abrupt end.

Everyone looked at the little eunuch who entered the temple "recklessly".

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows, came back to her senses and shouted at Yi Shiyu: "Where did you come from, the little eunuch who doesn't know the rules, push down the palace and behead it!" ”

As the Empress Dowager of the Great Song Dynasty, she still has such rights.

Yi Shiyu was a little dazed.

"Slow!"

Zhao Dongting couldn't hold back his anger, stood up and said, "This is the person I appointed to deliver the message, and I have already allowed him to come and go as he pleases all over the palace. ”

Then he walked down the dragon court and asked Yi Shiyu, "Is there another military emergency?" ”

Yi Shiyu looked at the Empress Dowager Quan who was like a crazy woman with some fear, and said with some trembling: "Return, return to the emperor, it is an urgent report from Liu An's envoy army." ”

He hurriedly pulled the bamboo tube out of his sleeve robe and handed it to Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting was slightly stunned, "What's the matter with Guangnan West Road?" ”

The eyes of Lu Xiufu and the others also fell on the secret letter in an instant.

Guangnan West Road successively defeated the Dali army, and the Dali lord prince surrendered to the Song Dynasty, and they all know about this matter now.

At this moment, everyone is curious about whether something big happened on Quang Nam West Road.

Then their eyes naturally focused on Zhao Dongting.

The Queen Mother was also slightly stunned.

This is a matter of national military affairs, and it is also a matter of the rise and fall of the Great Song Dynasty. At this level, she didn't dare to play tricks anymore.

What's more, she was also curious about what was on the secret letter from Liu Hongyi.

She's not a stupid woman.

Zhao Dongting took out the seal on the bamboo tube and pulled out the letter.

"Haha!"

In just a few seconds, his laughter rang out in the hall.

He didn't expect that Liu Hongyi and others would completely defeat Chi Fenggu's army in such a short period of time.

Of course, this is much better than the policy he set at the beginning to force the Dali army out of Hengshanzhai.

It was a bonus.

Su Liuyi, as the deputy military commander, couldn't hold back at first, and asked, "Your Majesty, there is good news again?" ”

At this moment, no one bothered about Zhao Xian's affairs.

The rise and fall of the Great Song Dynasty is more important than anything else.

Zhao Dongting looked around at the ministers and said with a loud smile: "Liu An's envoy, the two brothers of the Zhu family, Zhang Hongwei, Miao Cheng, Liu Zhuwen and others will break the Dali army on the west side of Hengshanzhai. The Dali rout stretched for more than ten miles, with countless losses. The war on the West Road of Guangnan can be stopped, and the three armies of Dali have conquered our Great Song Dynasty, and now only the army of the feudal combination has not been destroyed, and it will not last long if you want to come! ”

He didn't mention the burning of Hengshanzhai.

Compared with the whole world, Hengshanzhai is indeed nothing.

And just now being so noisy by the Empress Dowager Quan and others, the court is also in need of excitement at the moment.

As Zhao Dongting's words fell, the eyes of the ministers flashed with essence, and then they couldn't stop showing excitement.

"God bless me Da Song, ......"

"Your Majesty ......"

In the main hall, there is such a sound of "calling the sky and grabbing the earth".

Even the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing, who was sitting on top of the Dragon Court, had excitement on her face.

At that time, the Great Song Dynasty almost perished at her hands, and she herself was taken captive to the Mongolian Plateau. She can appreciate the preciousness of this prosperity.

This also made her even more reluctant to pursue Zhao Xian's assassination.

In the past, she loved Zhao Xian the most, but now, Zhao Dongting's achievements really made her unable to pick out the slightest thorn.

She even had the idea of wanting to help Zhao Dongting "get rid of his crimes".

Because, the Great Song Dynasty needed such an emperor.

The Queen Mother Quan turned slightly pale.

If anyone pays attention, they will find that her hands are trembling slightly at the moment, and her eyes are extremely trance-like.

This good news obviously set off a monstrous wave in her heart.

Seeing the joy of the ministers, she was just depressed.

At this time, Zhao Dongting looked at her, and said with some pride: "Queen Mother, you don't want to make any edicts at this juncture, right?" ”

The Empress Dowager Quan came back to her senses and stared at Zhao Dongting, a little vicious, "No matter how good you can fight, you can't cover up your evil deeds of killing your brother!" ”

"The Queen Mother is cautious."

Zhao Dongting saw that she said it so bluntly, and there was also a clear meaning in her eyes, "Emperor Gong's death was not done by me. I have said this countless times, if the Queen Mother insists on planting this great rebellion on my head like this, it is no wonder that I do not miss love! ”

He clearly has enough confidence now.

"Shut up!"

Even Xie Daoqing, who was sitting upright in the Dragon Court, showed dissatisfaction with the Empress Dowager Quan, "Empress Quan, you step back first!" ”

That's what she always called the Queen Mother.

Empress Dowager Quan directly said that Zhao Xian was killed by Zhao Dongting in the main hall, which was obviously too ignorant. Some things, even if true, cannot be said on certain occasions.

Hearing Xie Daoqing's voice, the Queen Mother was slightly stunned.

Then, she took a deep look at Xie Daoqing twice, and walked towards the outside of the hall.

She now understands that the great victory of Guangnan West Road has made Xie Daoqing gradually inclined to Zhao Dongting.

Xie Daoqing used to be in charge of the government, and in her heart, her grandson is not as important as the country.

Royal affection.
