Chapter 704 Turning things upside down
Prince Liu Ju's injury, as Yuan Zhao said, was not fatal. After the imperial physicians arrived, they carried out further processing as quickly as possible, and then, under the emperor's order, followed by a large number of guards to escort them back to the Jianzhang Palace and handed them over to the queen to take care of.
And at the same time as the situation in Hanyuan Hall is changing, in the harem, there is actually a scene of palace scheming being staged.
Since Su Wen, the waiter of the Yellow Gate who wanted to enter the Jianzhang Palace to receive the queen's seal, was killed on the spot, and the rest of the people returned with a feather, the atmosphere in the Jianzhang Palace has been a little tense. All the palace maids and eunuchs watched the movement cautiously, lest the next moment, a new emperor's decree would come.
Empress Wei has been sitting in the hall for a long time. The ruthless years have never spared anyone, leaving shallow marks on her face. The famous general is white-headed, and the beauty is twilight, which is originally a helpless thing. However, compared to these, the disappointment in the heart is the most difficult sadness to eliminate.
The emperor's lack of grace was originally an ordinary thing. No matter which dynasty or generation, it seems to be extremely rare for an emperor and queen to be able to maintain their initial emotions from beginning to end.
Whether it is cold by nature or not, or whether it is out of the needs of imperial power, in the emperor's family, after many years of curtain fighting, many things have actually been seen a long time ago.
Empress Wei sometimes thinks that if she hadn't danced that dance at Princess Pingyang's house, maybe she wouldn't have been able to get into the eyes of this merry man, so would her life be another wonderful?
This splendid Weiyang Palace is just a cage that imprisons the body and mind. She remembered how many times she went out of the palace, the prosperity of the people she saw through the honor guard Luan driving the splendid scenery, and the happiness and satisfaction on the faces of the people in cloth clothes made people envious.
However, she was destined to never return to such a life again. Since ascending to the throne of Empress Dahan, there are only two possibilities for the future outcome. Glory in the end or died halfway...... There is no third way to go!
The queen in silence, no one dared to come and disturb. Even Princess Yunxi, who has always been indignant, is very consciously quietly accompanied by her side, and is no longer willful and rude.
However, the silence in Jianzhang Palace will soon be broken. The palace people came to report that Mrs. Hook Yi, who had never been to the door, came and said that she wanted to meet the queen.
All the palace people looked at the empress and didn't understand why the most favored by the emperor would come to visit at this time. And Empress Wei seemed to have expected it a long time ago, there was no surprise on her face, she just nodded and motioned to the palace people to let her in.
Not long after, Zhao Qingcheng, a dressed lady of Hook Yi, surrounded by the palace maids, entered in shape. This is the first time she has stepped into Jianzhang Palace since entering the palace. Along the way, I looked around with some curiosity, but I was slightly surprised in my heart, the queen's residence is nothing more than this, and when it comes to luxury, it seems to be far inferior to the Hook Yi Palace.
Zhao Chengcheng, this legendary woman with miraculous features, the purpose of her coming today is self-evident, naturally she wants to disclose her provocation to the queen. The reason why I secretly calculated and forbearance for so long was that I was waiting for this day?!
After entering the palace, she only greeted plainly and did not make a big gift in the palace. This is already an extremely impertinent act. If it is on weekdays, it is completely possible to carry out severe punishment in accordance with the rules of the palace. Zhao Tingcheng didn't know this, but deliberately did so, she is today
Heaven is coming, it was supposed to be demonstrative, so why worry about these details!
In fact, in Zhao Tingcheng's eyes, the queen's pretense of calmness is not interesting at all. She didn't believe that the queen, who had fallen out of favor for a long time, would not understand the situation in front of her. His Majesty the Emperor has already sent someone to retrieve the seal, doesn't that explain everything? Even if it can be delayed for a while, can the queen's throne be kept? The woman in Allure sneered secretly, she was determined to win the queen's seal, which represented the supremacy of the harem!
"Does the queen know what will happen in Hanyuan Hall today?"
The speech is crisp, the voice is good, and the peerless face and mysterious life experience are ...... No wonder the emperor was so infatuated with her.
"The harem does not have to deal with the political affairs of the dynasty, this is the rule of this dynasty. Why did Mrs. Hook Yi ask this? ”
The queen ignored her unreasonableness, but her attitude was also cold. Many of the ambitions that had been hidden in the court for a long time were finally beginning to show, and if they were destined to be unable to escape this fate, they did not have to show weakness to anyone.
When Zhao Tingcheng heard the queen say this, she laughed softly. How do you express yourself? When the willow eyebrows were lightly spread, she caressed the fire fox cloak on her body lovingly.
Although the fox is charming, it cannot escape the hunter's bow and arrow. The more glamorous the status of the queen, the more uncomfortable it will be when she loses it.
"Queen Mother, having said that, it is a matter of self-interest and even net worth...... Will the queen still be so calm? ”
There was already a clear provocation in the tone of the sentence. Sure enough, Empress Wei's face suddenly darkened, and although she immediately covered it up, she couldn't escape from her eyes.
"If you have something to say, just say it! After a tiring day, the main palace is about to rest. ”
"Hey! What is the queen anxious about? I heard that there is a good show going on in Hanyuan Hall now. I believe it won't take long for the mother to know the news. Why don't you wait a moment...... Niangniang will be completely relieved when the time comes, right?"
Looking at her peach blossom face that seemed to be smiling, Princess Yunxi, who had heard bad intentions early on, finally couldn't bear it. She struggled to break free from the arm that the queen mother was holding, and pointed at the proud woman with her mouth, her mouth angry.
"The Queen Mother has long known that you people are behind the trouble...... Hum! Don't rejoice too soon. With a brother-in-law here, I will definitely let my father understand. Your machinations will not succeed! ”
Zhao Chengcheng looked proudly at the little princess who was trying to muster up the courage to fight, and his eyes were full of disdain. It's really not enough to give up on the Yellow River! Does the queen want to wait for the Yuan to call for help? What a joke, I'm afraid that guy won't be able to protect himself at this time......!
It was at this time that the palace people who rushed back to report the news brought the latest news of Hanyuan Palace. Empress Wei finally lost her composure and stood up suddenly, surprised by surprise. And the master of the Hook Yi Palace was disgraced and at a loss!
Outside the Hanyuan Palace, among the many civil and military ministers, there are also many people who feel ignorant at this moment. The sudden reversal of this drama is too fast! When he was ordered to go out of Hanyuan Hall to watch the situation outside, Yuan Zhao, Wei Qing and others were still people who were about to bear a big crime, and they were in danger. However, in the blink of an eye, they became the victors who took the initiative again. It's really treacherous, like falling into the clouds.
It was different from some of the ministers who watched the embroidered guards being tied up and imprisoned by the Yulin Army and had a devastated face. Dou Ying, Li Guangyi
and those courtiers who had always been loyal and upright, all showed excited expressions. Although it is very unfortunate that the Son of Heaven was assassinated and the prince was seriously injured, Xingyunzi was finally exposed because of this. Thus the contradiction between the emperor and Yuan Zhao and the crown prince was resolved, which is a major event worth celebrating.
In this case, nature does not have to say much about each other. The joy conveyed between the eyebrows already speaks for itself. Under the command of Han Yan, the Yulin Army moved very quickly. All the embroidered guards have been arrested, and no one knows what fate awaits them.
Jiang Chong, whose two arms were cut off by the Red Fire Sword, has become a wasted person. He was very embarrassed and was tied up by Han Yan himself, staring at Yuan Zhao standing in front of him with eyes like a hungry wolf, and the remorse in his heart was overturned.
"I knew there would be today, I should have started in advance! Yuan Zhao, if you don't die this time, I will ...... you. ”
"No ifs! Well, you're going to die. And he will be executed in public outside the noon gate! All the secret deeds that you have instructed the embroidery guards to do will be cleared one by one. Jiang Chong, your name will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history, leaving a stench for thousands of years...... This is the oath I made in front of the body of the deceased Prime Minister Gongsun Hong. ”
Yuan Zhao withdrew his gaze looking at the sky at the corner of the hall, and looked at the prisoner under his feet with a calm expression. The former majestic commander of the embroidered guards made his face full of blood and hideous at the moment, and his image was no longer the same as before. The look of resentment on his face was eager to devour everyone standing in front of him alive.
"Yuan Zhao! You're so vicious! He used this method against me. In vain, I was still driven by you to clean up Xifengwei and the ...... rivers and lakes! ”
"A murderous knife is still a knife after all, and it can never control its own destiny. Jiang Chong, your mission has been completed, go where you should go! ”
"I see...... Hahaha! In the eyes of you and the Emperor, we are just tools for gaming! Jiang hates it......! ”
At this moment, Jiang Chong completely understood what the difference between himself and Yuan Zhao was. In the calm and wise eyes of that young man lies the power to perceive everything in the world. Perhaps, I chose the wrong opponent in the first place.
The commander of the embroidered guard, who was sentenced to death in advance by Yuan Zhao, really did as he said, and there was no chance to take revenge. His Majesty the Emperor did not personally interrogate him at all, and did not seem interested in knowing about his crimes. Some once shared secrets, perhaps only the dead, can never be revealed.
Jiang Chong was imprisoned in the Sili Captain's Mansion, where his final fate was decided. Three days later, just outside the Suzaku Gate, where the blood of Prime Minister Sun Hong was stained red, this once indispensable man was beheaded in the city.
And at the subsequent court meeting presided over by His Majesty the Emperor himself, all court officials, generals, kings and people in the clan who were involved in the prince's "witch Gu" were severely punished since the great emperor did not know Liu Buzhi. And the many forces hidden behind this have been further investigated. All of a sudden, the situation in Chang'an City changed greatly, and the very famous "Zhenghe New Deal" in the history books of later generations was officially unveiled from this time.
