Empress Xuanren and Su Poyan had a secret conversation on the Changhong Bridge.

Su Poyan said: "Niangniang, the holy decree has been issued: His Royal Highness will be reinstated as the crown prince, and His Majesty will summon His Royal Highness to Beijing to carry out the ceremony of reinstating the prince." How can this be? Should His Highness comply with the order or postpone his illness? ”

Empress Xuanren looked sad, shook her head and said, "I haven't thought about it either." What do you mean? ”

Su Poyan said: "Mother." The current situation is not good for us. He reinstated His Royal Highness as the crown prince, and it was written in the holy decree that the reason for the reinstatement of the crown prince was because the vacancy of the crown prince would make people want to abolish it. That's it, and he picked it all by himself. At the same time, he also strengthened the surveillance of Bongdeok Palace. What do we do next? ”

Empress Xuanren said: "His surveillance of Fengde Palace is nothing, just a few more people." You've gone to see the secret passage, is it really as Zhou Duan said? ”

Su Poyan said: "It's true. At the end of the secret passage, there is a dense forest outside the holy capital, and there are indeed plainclothes soldiers placed by the king of Beiling County around, and there are quite a few of them. Leaving the Holy Capital and the setting of the Royal Palace, everything was in order. If you want to go, you can do it at any time. ”

Empress Xuanren said: "They were posthumously crowned as the kings of the county, and they were buried with the ceremony of the king of the county. According to the rules, the funeral of the county king is a month. In this way, the days of mourning are much longer than we had originally set. We originally planned to take advantage of the opportunity of the memorial ceremony on the last day of the funeral to summon Rong Yong into the palace to talk, and then leave the palace together. ”

Su Poyan said, "Yes." There is a problem, which is on His Highness's side. He ordered His Royal Highness to enter Beijing. Once His Highness gets up, His Highness will be completely under the control of the Emperor, and if Niangniang escapes from the palace, His Highness will probably be in trouble immediately. Therefore, if Niangniang wants to leave the palace, she can only rush before His Highness gets up, and it is best to rush before the envoy who reads the holy decree arrives in Tairodo. ”

Empress Xuanren said: "This makes sense. ”

Su Poyan said: "If this is the case, then Niangniang can't wait until the last day of the funeral to leave the palace, but must go out of the palace through the secret passage as soon as possible, and then report to His Royal Highness through Yunge after leaving the palace, telling him not to get up." ”

"If that's the case, it's tantamount to openly announcing a rebellion." Empress Xuanren said, "But the current situation is so obscure, if you rashly raise troops, the chances of victory are not great." Moreover, once I escape from the Holy Capital, once I resist the decree, Rong Yong will only die. I can't bear it all the time. ”

Su Poyan said: "Niangniang, the overall situation is important. Now is a very moment, it is difficult to be foolproof, and it may not be able to take care of Erlang of Rongjun's guard. ”
