Chapter 167: Finale
His words were deliberately very serious, and even though the sound of the rain was pouring down, it still spread far away and fell on the ears of the forbidden army and those soldiers.
Gongliang Rongruo saw his intentions, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he said in a dark voice: "Empty mouth and white teeth, there is no evidence!" ”
Gongliang said indifferently: "The grain and grass are in the hands of the minister, but do you want the brother to take it out now?" ”
King Pingyang's eyes moved, and he pointed to Gongliangyu and stopped: "It is clear that you are going to rob the grain and grass yourself, planting Your Majesty, and trapping Your Majesty in unkindness, otherwise how can this grain and grass be in your hands." ”
Gongliang Yanqing sneered: "Even if the King of Pingyang has a lotus tongue today, it will be difficult to hide His Majesty's sin!" ”
"There has always been only the sin of the king's ministers, how can the ministers discuss the sins of the king, as early as when you waited for the king to discuss in vain, you have already committed a heinous crime!"
Gongliang Yanqing said disappreciatively: "He can't tolerate us left and right, so what's the point of committing a few more crimes." ”
King Pingyang said with deep eyes: "Being so obsessed is not a good thing for the Seven Kings. ”
There was laughter, although it was still clearly audible in the torrential rain, "In the eyes of this king, the king of Pingyang is the one who is obsessed." Back then, you fought with your father, from a nobody, step by step to become one of the only kings with different surnames in the Song Kingdom, what a glorious scenery. Father trusts you in every way. As a result, you fell to the Wan clan because of the princess, and from then on helped them compete with their father. King Pingyang, ask yourself, are you worthy of your father and the people of the Song Kingdom? ”
King Pingyang's face was blue and white for a while when he said it, but he couldn't say a word more.
"Your Majesty." Gongliang's voice came from the rain, "Do you want to enter the palace now to take out your father's edict or wait for your brother to capture Kaifeng City, you choose!" Brother Rong Chen reminds you that there is only one chance, and if you choose the wrong one, Your Majesty will definitely pay the price! ”
Gong Liangrong stared at the face of the rain queen, and said coldly: "Do you think I will be afraid of you rabble? ”
Gongliang said indifferently: "Your Majesty is high, how can you put your subordinates in your eyes, but ...... The younger brother swore that if he started a war, even if he tried his best to fight the last drop of blood, he would definitely break through Kaifeng City. When the time comes, either you will die or I will die! ”
Gongliang Rongruo's cheeks twitched, the green tendons jumped violently in his forehead, and Yingyi said on the side: "But if you attack the city, it is necessary to be several times the strength of the defenders, but now they only have a few hundred thousand troops, not to mention the strong walls of Kaifeng City, and there are 300,000 soldiers, which can be described as solid, and it is not at all that he can capture." ”
Gongliang Rongruo said coldly: "If it was the original, I really wouldn't be worried, but now...... He has plenty of food and grass, and he has the support of generals such as Bozhou and Yongzhou, as well as Ye Xuemei, a military division, Kaifeng City...... I'm afraid I can't stop him! ”
King Pingyang sighed: "King Ning is no longer Wuxia Ameng, it is really not easy to stop him. ”
Zhang Hua said tentatively: "Is it difficult...... Do you really want to take out the edict? But what if this edict is not good for Your Majesty? ”
If Gongliang Rong is also very irritable in his heart, the edict will inevitably be unfavorable to himself, and the trouble is not knowing where the edict is hidden. In order to find the edict for a while, I almost turned over Shuyuzhai, but I never found anything.
After Dongmei's death, the queen mother pressed Chen several times, but she would rather suffer from the ten-pointer than tell the edict.
The king of Pingyang pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Kaifeng City does not have much grain in storage, once a war starts, it will be very unfavorable to us, and ...... Once the truth of the looting of grain and grass spreads, I am afraid that it will shake the morale of the army. ”
Gongliang Rongruo said with a gloomy face: "So what do you mean, are you letting them into Beijing?" ”
"Yes." The king of Pingyang bowed his head and said: "First, it is impossible for King Ning to enter Beijing with these hundreds of thousands of soldiers, at most one or two thousand, which is equivalent to giving us the opportunity to ambush and kill in the city in disguise." As soon as King Ning died, these hundreds of thousands of soldiers were leaderless, and naturally returned to His Majesty's command. Second, the greatest threat to His Majesty is not King Ning and the generals from all over the country, but the edict of the first emperor. And the hiding place of the edict is only known to Concubine Chen. Therefore, Your Majesty might as well make a false accusation first, and wait for Concubine Chen to take out the edict, and then try to destroy it and never suffer in the future! ”
In the pouring rain of thunder and silver snakes, Gongliang Rongruo nodded with difficulty, "Okay, just do what you want." Yingyi, send someone to return to the palace immediately to inform the queen mother of this matter, so that the queen mother can prepare early. ”
"Your Majesty is wise!" King Pingyang bowed, stepped forward a few steps, and shouted through the heavy rain: "Your Majesty has a decree to allow King Ning to enter the palace without discharging his military power, but he can only bring five thousand soldiers into the palace, and ......" He swept over the generals on horseback, and said in a condensed voice: "Please ask the old prince and your highnesses to order the generals to return to the local stations, there must be no mistake!" He deliberately changed the number of people allowed to be brought into the city to five thousand, and tried to weaken his power as much as possible.
King Ke and the others all looked at Gongliangyuzhi, although the generals from all over the country were summoned by them, but Gongliangyuzhi was the one who could decide.
After a long silence, Gongliang stopped speaking and said, "Okay, I promise!" ”
After the generals left one by one, the gate of Kaifeng, which had kept them out, finally opened slowly. Compared with the excitement of Yan Wang and the others, Ye Xuemei's expression was extremely solemn, and she said in a low voice: "After entering the city, it is the beginning of the real competition, you must be careful!" ”
"I know, thank you for doing so much for me." The voice of Gongliang is clear and gentle, like a bright flower blooming in a rainstorm.
The corners of Ye Xuemei's lips showed a hint of tenderness, "After everything is peaceful, it's not too late to thank you!" ”
The four eyes are facing each other, and there are veins and affection flowing between each other, invisible and traceless, but they cannot be cut off by any divine weapon.
Gao Xueliu glanced at it silently, walked to Chen's side, and helped her to Kaifeng City, behind them, there were 5,000 soldiers who were allowed to follow into Beijing, and the rest of the soldiers all stayed in place and waited for orders.
When they arrived at the Xingde Palace, the Empress Dowager Wan was already there, she was sitting next to the Nine Dragons Throne, wearing a real red bat-patterned silk brocade shirt, she was graceful and majestic, making people dare not look directly.
"Yuzhi, you're back?" Empress Dowager Wan said lightly, her tone was normal, as if she had just gone hunting in the suburbs.
"Yes, the son is back, please say hello to the queen mother!" Gongliang stopped bowing his hand, hiding all hatred and sorrow under the surface of calm and indifference.
"It's good to be back." Empress Dowager Wan smiled slightly, her eyes swept over Ye Xuemei and the others, "Why are they all here one by one, is there something wrong?" ”
King Ke took a step forward and arched his hand: "The ministers implore the Queen Mother to immediately summon hundreds of civil and military officials into the palace." ”
"Oh?" Empress Dowager Wan said quietly: "What is so serious as to summon hundreds of civil and military officials into the palace?" It's still raining heavily! ”
King Ke said in a deep voice: "It is a matter of the survival of the Song Kingdom, and I ask the Queen Mother to pass on the decree immediately!" ”
Empress Dowager Wan's eyes were like arrows, hovering over King Ke, but her tone was as calm and peaceful as ever, "Yuzhi has just pacified the northern border, defeated Wu and Xia, and my Song country is in full power, where does the word 'survival' come from?" ”
King Ke raised his hand and met her sharp and cold gaze and said: "Although the border is peaceful, there are many disasters inside, if it is not cured in time, it will definitely ruin the century-old foundation of the Song Kingdom." ”
Empress Dowager Wan beckoned Gongliang Rong Ruo to come up and forth, and said lightly: "I don't know what King Ke said about the internal troubles?" ”
"The ministers have just learned that before the first emperor died, there was an edict left, so I implore the queen mother to summon all the ministers to the court to listen to the edict of the first emperor."
Empress Dowager Wan pulled Gongliang Rongruo to sit down on the Nine Dragons throne that represented supreme power, and said with a surprised expression: "Before the first emperor died, the mourning family had been accompanying him, and I didn't see that the first emperor had an edict left, where did King Ke hear it?" ”
"It was the first emperor who told him personally, and Concubine Chen also knew." King Ke's words made Empress Dowager Wan turn her gaze to Chen, "Really? Why has the mourning family never heard my sister mention it? ”
Chen said calmly: "The first emperor told that unless the Song State is in danger, he must not tell anyone about the edict, let alone take it out, and the concubines dare not disobey it." ”
"I see." Empress Dowager Wan bowed her head slightly and said: "Since this is the case, please ask my sister to tell me where the edict is, and the mourning family will send someone to fetch it." ”
King Ke intercepted the words and said: "The first emperor clearly said that only when hundreds of officials gather can they take out the edict. After him, King Yan and others also asked for orders and asked to summon hundreds of officials.
Empress Dowager Wan's eyes were cold, and then she quickly recovered her mildness, and looked sideways at Sanbao and said: "Spread the will of the mourning family and summon hundreds of officials to meet you!" ”
"Yes!" After Sanbao bowed and retreated, Gongliang Rongruo lowered his voice and said with an anxious expression: "This must be a will to depose his son, and it will ...... when the time comes."
Empress Dowager Wan patted his hand and interrupted: "Everything is with the queen mother, it doesn't matter." ”
After receiving the report from Gongliang Rongruo, she arranged people in every palace and palace, no matter where the edict was hidden, as long as it was taken out, her people would immediately destroy it desperately, and they would never be able to get the Xingde Palace.
Although Gongliangrong didn't know it, he also knew the methods of the Empress Dowager Wan. Since she said it was okay, something must be fine.
The queen mother summoned, how dare the officials disobey, they all braved the torrential rain to come to the Xingde Palace. When he saw Gongliang Yuzhi and the others there, his face changed slightly. They have heard more or less about things outside the city, looking at this posture, Kaifeng City, I am afraid that it will turn the sky upside down.
After the last official stepped into the Xingde Palace, the voice of the Empress Dowager Wan sounded slowly, "The reason why you have come here today is because King Ke claimed that the first emperor had an edict left behind, and he wanted to read it in front of your civil and military officials. ”
The hundred officials looked at each other, all full of surprise, Meng Tang took the lead and walked out and asked, "Lord Ke, does the first emperor really have an edict left?" ”
King Ke bowed his head and said: "Although the first emperor passed the throne to His Majesty, he was worried, so he left a testament and instructed him to take it out when necessary. In order to avoid someone from beating the idea of the edict, only this king and Concubine Chen knew about this matter. The location of the edict is only known to Concubine Chen. ”
All the officials were startled, and their eyes invariably looked at Gongliang Rongruo. Could it be that this edict has something to do with the throne?
Meng Tang looked solemn and bowed his hand to the Chen family, "Dare to ask Concubine Chen, where is the edict of the first emperor now?" ”
"The edict of the first emperor is ......" Chen's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and finally fixed on the face of the Empress Dowager Wan.
Empress Dowager Wan's expression at the moment was as dignified and self-contained as ever, and she couldn't see a trace of flaws, but only she knew the tension in her heart.
The edict must not be allowed to be brought to the Xingde Palace, let alone made public in front of hundreds of officials!
Chen raised his hand and pointed to the "Zhengda Guangming" plaque inscribed by Emperor Ming on the throne of Kowloon, and said word by word: "The edict is behind the plaque." ”
Empress Dowager Wan was shocked, she had calculated everything, but she didn't count it, and the edict was actually in the Xingde Palace!
Gongliang Rongruo stood up even more in shock, "How can there be an edict after the Zhengda Guangming plaque, it's just nonsense." ”
King Ke pouted with a sneer on his lips, "Whether it's nonsense or not, send someone to see it!" ”
"No! What kind of place is the Xingde Palace, how can you be allowed to come nonsense! After that, he stared at Chen and said coldly: "Concubine Chen is running hard, send her back to Shuyuzhai." ”
Before the forbidden army approached, Gongliang Yuzhi was already in front of Chen, and said coldly: "Who dares!" ”
Several forbidden soldiers were drunk by him, and they didn't dare to step forward again. After Meng Tang and several ministers said a few words in a low voice, the courtier said with a good face: "Your Majesty, it is about the edict of the first emperor, and the ministers think that they should be clear." If it's really nonsense, it's not too late to deal with it. ”
"No way!" King Pingyang said with a tough attitude: "Xingde Hall is the place where the emperors of the past dynasties went to court, how can you climb arbitrarily because the concubine doesn't know whether it is true or false." If you spread it, you have to let the countries laugh at our Song Kingdom. ”
"Yes, what King Pingyang said is reasonable."
"Climbing the Xingde Hall is rude to Your Majesty, to the first emperor and even the kings of the Song Kingdom, and this matter must not be done." Some officials who stood on the side of the Empress Dowager Wan echoed one after another.
Meng Tang always looked at them unpleasantly, and snorted coldly: "If you have an edict and can't come out, it is also disrespectful to the first emperor." ”
King Pingyang stared at him and said lightly: "As long as Meng Shangshu proves that there is indeed an edict of the first emperor behind the plaque, this king will never stop it." "If you don't climb up, there will be no edict, and if you can't prove that there is an edict, you won't be allowed to climb up. This is a dead loop deliberately set by King Pingyang.
While they were arguing, Ye Xuemei whispered a few words in the ears of the star prisoner and the others, and everyone nodded slightly. Immediately after that, the Star Prisoner and the Hazy Prisoner rose up, like two arrows that shot out, flying in the direction of the Zhengda plaque.
Gongliang Rongruo's face changed drastically, and he shouted: "Stop them!" ”
Just like when he attacked and killed Xiao Shunzi before, a black shadow appeared out of thin air. However, this time, two appeared at the same time, and in the shocked gaze of the hundred officials, they intercepted the way of the star prisoners.
When the two sides were fighting, two more figures flew into the air, colorless and moonlight. Although the two black shadows are strong in martial arts, the star prisoners are not good at them, and they are entangled together, and they will not be able to get rid of them for a while.
"What a trick to turn the tiger away from the mountain!" Empress Dowager Wan's eyes swept over Ye Xuemei with a cold expression, and the next moment, she shouted: "Stop them for the mourning family, and see who dares to be presumptuous in Xingde Palace!" ”
With her words, two more black shadows appeared in everyone's sight, and stopped them when the colorless ones were about to touch the plaque.
Just when King Ke and the others were disappointed, another figure rose into the air, it was the prison knife.
Empress Dowager Wan didn't expect that they still had a third group of people, her face was pale, she lost her previous composure, and shouted urgently: "Stop them quickly." ”
Although the four black shadows heard her order, they couldn't get rid of the star prisoner and the others for a while, so they could only watch the prison knife approach the plaque. As for Zhang Hua, as early as when the prison knife just jumped up, he was blocked by the shadow prisoner, and it was difficult to move an inch.
Knowing that there was only one opportunity, the prison knife used all his strength, jumped to the Zhengda Guangming plaque as fast as possible, took down the vermilion box hidden in the back, and handed it to Ye Xuemei.
Ye Xuemei held the vermilion brocade box in both hands, met the cruel gaze of the Empress Dowager Wan, and said loudly: "The edict is here, hasn't the Empress Dowager stopped?" ”
There was a strong hatred in the eyes of the Empress Dowager Wan, whether it was a star prisoner or a colorless person, they were all bait used to adjust the tiger, and the prison knife was the real move.
Ye Xuemei must have guessed that there were shadow guards by her side, so it would be like this!
Sure enough, this powerless woman is the most terrifying, without her, Gongliang would not have been able to go this far!
Empress Dowager Wan thought about it for a long time, and finally didn't dare to forcibly seize the edict in front of hundreds of officials, and said coldly: "Come back!" ”
With these two words, the four black shadows that were still fighting with the star prisoners just now quickly retreated behind her and Gongliang Rongruo, and then disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
The star prisoner and the others frowned, this was not the first time that a black shadow had appeared, but they still couldn't see through the mystery of the appearance and disappearance of the black shadow, it was really weird. It is no wonder that His Holiness has been lurking beside their mother and son for many years, but he has never made an assassination, so elusive and tricky.
The hundred officials looked at all this in amazement, and everyone was stunned. Meng Tang was the first to come back to his senses and said to King Ke: "Lord Wang, this is ...... Who are these people? ”
King Ke pondered for a moment and said, "Meng Shangshu has ever heard of the Dark Night Camp?" ”
"Naturally, I did." Meng Tang nodded and told what he knew, "It is rumored that the founding monarch of the Song Kingdom founded the Dark Night Camp, which has been passed down from generation to generation. The Dark Night Battalion does not enter the military department, does not return to the army, only listens to the orders of each generation of monarchs, and secretly guards the Song Kingdom. ”
King Ke bowed his head and said: "Yes, before the death of every king of the Song Kingdom, he will pass the dark night camp and the throne to the next prince, and there has never been an exception, until the generation of the first emperor. ”
"The First Emperor?" Meng Tang was puzzled and said, "What does this mean, Lord Wang?" ”
King Ke glanced at the Empress Dowager Wan, whose eyes were gloomy, and said slowly: "When the first emperor was in power, he once favored a noble concubine very much, and even after the death of the first queen a few years later, he made her the successor, gave her the honor of her mother in the world, and reused her mother's family. In this way, Long En and his mother's family were not satisfied, and they continued to plant people in the imperial court and even in various state capitals to expand their power. When the first emperor found out, half of the Song River had already fallen into their hands. In addition, the first emperor also found that he was the successor son of the prince in his early years, and he was filial and benevolent on the surface, but in fact he was cold and ruthless, and he was extremely selfish, and he was not a candidate for the Ming monarch. The first emperor had the intention of abolishing his crown prince, but in this way, the successor clan would not give up, and when the time came, civil strife would break out, neighboring countries would invade, and the Song State would be in danger. ”
"And at that time, the first emperor dragon's body was declining, and his energy was low, so after thinking about it several times, he gave up this decision and pretended not to know anything. After the first emperor dragon returned to the sea, his successor son inherited the throne as a prince, but he did not get the night camp. After he succeeded to the throne, while rewarding the princes, he secretly sent people to monitor him, wondering which prince the first emperor had passed the night camp to. Once the whereabouts of the Night Camp are found, there is no need for the princes to continue to live, and King Shin is the best example. After that, he raised his head and looked at Gongliang Rongruo, who had a gloomy face, "Your Majesty, did the minister say something wrong?" ”
An official cautiously asked: "Which prince did the first emperor pass on the Xinchen Revolution to?" "If the first emperor was forced by the pressure of the Wan clan to pass on the throne to Gongliang Rongruo, then the person who inherited the Dark Night Camp is the real candidate for the prince of the first emperor, and the person who should really sit on the throne of the Nine Dragons.
King Ke pointed to the prison knife and the others, and said indifferently: "They are here, just ask yourself." ”
Under the shocked gaze of the hundred officials, the heavenly prisoner who had never appeared slowly walked into the hall, stopped in front of the public good words, and said word by word: "We are ordered by the first emperor to follow His Royal Highness King Ning, and we must not disobey in life and death!" ”
Hearing this, the officials were in an uproar, they more or less guessed a few points, but when they really got confirmed, they still couldn't hide their surprise, after all, King Ning was too inconspicuous among the many princes of the previous emperor.
Meng Tang said with a puzzled face: "Since they are the Dark Night Camp, who is the black shadow just now?" ”
Gongliang Yanqing took over and said: "This question, Meng Shangshu has to ask His Majesty, and then ask about Tianqin Pavilion by the way." ”
Tianqin Pavilion is very famous in Kaifeng City, most of the hundred officials in the court have heard of it, and some of them are even the guests of the Tianqin Pavilion girl, and someone immediately asked what Gongliang Yanqing meant.
"I don't think you know." Gongliang Yanqing sneered: "Tianqin Pavilion is a Qinlou Chu Pavilion on the surface, but in fact, it is a place used by our majesty to collect intelligence and supervise hundreds of officials, and there are also many masters of the rivers and lakes in it for assassination. The king of faith died at their hands. With that, he said to Yingyi Nunu, "Well, this is the head of Tianqin Pavilion." ”
Hearing this, all the officials did not change color, and there were a few officials who often went to Tianqin Pavilion, and their faces were even more shocked. The behind-the-scenes boss of Tianqin Pavilion is Gongliang Rongruo, so didn't all the words they said in Tianqin Pavilion reach his ears?
Empress Dowager Wan smiled lightly: "Yanqing's ability to make up stories is getting better and better, and even the mourning family almost believes it." ”
Gongliang Yanqing looked at her and said with a smile: "It's just that the queen mother refuses to admit it, the most important thing at the moment is to read out the edict of the father." ”
At this time, King Ke had already taken the brocade box from Ye Xuemei's hand, carefully took out a scroll with a yellow silk jade handle from it, and said with a solemn expression: "The edict of the first emperor, everyone kneels to welcome!" ”
Gongliang Yuzhi took the lead in kneeling down, and said in a deep voice: "The son respects the edict of his father. ”
After him, the hundred officials knelt down one after another, and although the Empress Dowager Wan and Gongliangrong were reluctant in their hearts, they did not dare to disobey the decree and knelt down together to welcome the decree.
There is no doubt in the edict that it is the content of deposing Gongliang Rongruo as the emperor, and setting up Gongliangyu as the new emperor. Although Gongliangrong is reluctant in every way, he is helpless under the general trend after all. Although he was thunderous and unbelievable, the hundred officials still recognized the new emperor.
Compared with Gongliang Rongruo's loss of control, Empress Dowager Wan's expression was much calmer, and she said: "Since this is really the intention of the first emperor, the mourning family and the emperor should obey!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Gongliangrong was shocked and changed, and complied...... Doesn't he have to give up the throne, how can this be, the queen mother is crazy?
Not only Gongliang Rongruo, but others were also surprised, no matter what they thought, the Empress Dowager Wan should hold on to the throne, how could she take the initiative to let it out, it is really unreasonable.
"Queen Mother's ......"
Empress Dowager Wan interrupted him, "The mourning family knows that the emperor is difficult to accept for a while, but the will of the first emperor cannot be violated, and the emperor has indeed done something wrong. ”
Gongliangrong looked at the Empress Dowager Wan in disbelief, they are mother and son, and they should be on the same front, but now the queen mother ...... even helped Gongliang to stop the group from talking.
After coming back to his senses, he said with a red face: "I am the son of heaven of the Song Kingdom appointed by my father, and it is impossible for me to give way to an ungrateful thief!" ”
Empress Dowager Wan was silent for a moment, raised her eyes and looked at Gongliangyu, "Can you let the mourning family stay alone with the emperor for a while?" ”
Gongliang nodded and helped Chen to retreat. After he left, the hundred officials also retreated, and after only their mother and son were left in the Xingde Palace, the Empress Dowager Wan stepped forward to hold Gongliang Rongruo's arm, but he waved it away and said sharply: "Don't touch me!" ”
Empress Dowager Wan withdrew her hand disapprovingly, and said gently: "Angry after the birth mother? ”
Upon hearing this, Gongliang Rongruo suddenly became excited, "Shouldn't it?" You are my mother, but you helped them force me to hand over the throne, it's crazy! ”
Empress Dowager Wan sighed: "Do you think the mourning family is willing? But you have also seen the situation just now, if you don't hand over the throne, you will not give up. ”
Gongliang Rongruo said coldly: "So what? Could it be that I am still afraid of him? ”
"The public good word has been completed, not that it can be dealt with!" After that, she sighed again, "It's also strange to the mourning family for letting him come to this point!" ”
Gongliang flicked his sleeves and said with a tough attitude: "His reliance is on those hundreds of thousands of troops and those dozens of generals, don't I have it?" If you really want to fight, it is still unknown who will kill the deer! ”
Empress Dowager Wan said in a condensed voice: "If there is a war, no matter who wins or loses, the Song Kingdom will be weakened by the civil war, and even ...... Invite the disaster of the country! ”
Gongliang Rongruo's face changed, and then he said hatefully: "Even if it is a dead country, it is better than a cheap one, Gongliang will stop this cheap species." What I can't get, others can't even think of! ”
Empress Dowager Wan picked up her scarlet Zhai clothes and said lightly: "What the mourning family wants is that the emperor leads the countries, how can he become the king of the dead country." ”
Her words made Gongliang stunned, "If this is the case, why does the queen mother still help them?" ”
Empress Dowager Wan straightened the slightly crooked golden crown for him, and said softly: "The emperor thinks that how can Gongliang Yuzhi come to this day and force our mother and son to be so embarrassed?" ”
Mentioning this, Gong Liangrong was resentful and remorseful, and said coldly: "It was the son who mistakenly allowed him military power, coupled with the night camp and the damn edict, otherwise why would he be so arrogant." ”
Empress Dowager Wan shook her head, "You're wrong." ”
"Wrong?" Gongliang Rong said puzzledly: "Erchen doesn't understand. ”
"What the emperor said is just superficial things, the emperor might as well think about it carefully, who helped him get military power from you step by step, who helped him persuade King Ke to them, and who took away the edict from you?"
Every time Empress Dowager Wan said a word, Gongliang Rongruo's eyes became colder, and she said slowly: "Ye Xuemei! ”
"Not bad! If there were no calculations and support from this woman, even if the first emperor left an edict and a dark night camp to stop the public conscience, he would not be able to set off today's big waves. ”
Gongliang's thin lips were slightly bent, and he smiled coldly, "No matter how smart you are, it's not like you're going to die." The son only hated her, and did not kill her early, so that today's disaster occurred. Speaking of this, his heart moved, "Does the queen mother want to temporarily make a false accusation, and then regain the throne after Ye Xuemei's death?" ”
Empress Dowager Wan nodded and shook her head again, making Gongliang Rongruo more and more surprised. I only heard the Empress Dowager Wan say slowly: "Not to mention when this woman will die, even if she dies, everything will definitely be arranged, and we will not easily achieve our goal." What the queen mother wants is to watch how she plans for Gongliang during this period, while we are in the dark, waiting for the opportunity, looking at the vacancy, and giving them a fatal blow. So, Emperor, no matter what, you have to wait patiently! ”
Gongliang Rongruo shook his head again and again after hearing this, "The queen mother also said, how smart Ye Xuemei is, how can she give us a chance?" That's impossible! ”
Empress Dowager Wan smiled lightly: "Nothing is impossible, just like today, has the emperor ever thought of it before?" ”
Gongliang Rong lowered his head and was silent, and after a long time, he raised his eyes and said, "Does the queen mother really have this certainty?" ”
"When did the mourners lie to you?" Empress Dowager Wan pressed his shoulder, let him sit on the unique Nine Dragons Throne, and said coldly: "This throne belongs to you, and it can only belong to you. ”
After staring at each other for a moment, Gongliang Rongruo finally made up his mind, and nodded solemnly, "Okay, the son obeys the arrangement of the queen mother." ”
His words made the Empress Dowager Wan smile, "I can bend and stretch, and I deserve to be the son of the mourning family." Don't worry, even if the first emperor is reborn, he won't want to take it away! ”
After everything was agreed, the hundred officials re-entered, and Gongliang Rongruo endured the strong hatred in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I just thought about what I have done in the three years since I ascended the throne, there are indeed many inconsistencies, since the edict has been explained, as the son of my father and emperor, I should obey it." So, I decided to abdicate and make way for Xian! ”
For his decision, the officials who stood on the side of Gongliang Yuzhi gladly accepted it, but the officials who stood on Gongliang Rongruo's side were shocked. The official secretary Shangshu said even more eagerly: "Your Majesty, this matter is about the unification, and it must not be a child's play!" ”
Behind him, dozens of courtiers echoed him, asking Gongliang to think twice.
"I've made up my mind, you don't have to wait anymore." After drinking everyone's words, Gongliang Rongruo slowly walked to Gongliang's words, "Promise me, be kind to your subjects and people, put the Song Kingdom first in everything, and don't be like before me, blinded by selfish interests and forget the responsibility of the king." ”
Gongliang Yuzhi had a trace of vigilance in his eyes, and said indifferently: "Since you are a king, it should be so." ”
"Good!" Gongliang Rongruo slowly spit out this word, and before everyone could react, he suddenly knelt on his knees and said loudly: "Minister Liangrongruo, see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!" ”
Gong Liangrong clenched his hands and let his nails clipper into the flesh. He swore that he would pay for the humiliation he had suffered today a hundredfold in the coming day.
With his kneeling, all the officials knelt down and shouted long live. In the midst of this cry that resounded through the hall, Gongliang Yu slowly walked up the steps and walked towards the throne that had once stood high above him.
The only thing that is true is that he now finally has the ability to protect the people around him, and he no longer has to worry about them being harmed.
That's it, that's enough!
When he sat on the dragon chair, the rain that had been falling all day suddenly stopped, and the dark clouds dispersed, revealing a bright moon and a clear glow.
According to historical records, on August 23 of the third year of Wude, Emperor Wude complied with the edict of Emperor Ming, abdicated and made way for Xian, and succeeded him as emperor by the five princes Gongliangyuzhi, changed to Yongping, which means eternal peace in the world, and the Ministry of Rites was selected several times, and was scheduled to enthrone on July 27.
After Gongliang Yuzhi succeeded to the throne, he honored his mother-in-law Wan and his biological mother Chen as the queen mother of the two palaces, and named the old emperor Gongliangrong as Prince Yuan.
At this point, the dust has settled.
After Gongliang Yuzhi ascended the throne, he remembered that he had used Shi Fenglan and caused her to have a miscarriage, and felt deeply guilty, so he canonized her as the queen. And Ye Xuemei was also canonized as a concubine by him, and the next year later, she gave birth to a son, whose life is eternal, which means that the love between the two is eternal and long.
Gao Xueliu was canonized as Zhaorong, and after giving birth, she became a concubine, and her son was named Yixiao.
Wan's mother and son later plotted a rebellion, and under Ye Xuemei's planning, Gongliang Yuzhi counterattacked and completely strangled their mother and son.
After the country stabilized, Gongliang Yuzhi fulfilled his previous promise, sent troops to the Xia Kingdom, and joined forces with Ye Lan Yuanli, annihilating Murong Yu in one fell swoop and avenging Ye Xuemei.
His life's wish was to unify the Central Plains, and after destroying the Xia State, he was even more imposing, gradually disintegrating Heshe's internal affairs and making it a vassal state of the Song State. Although Wu was the most difficult to attack, it was ultimately defeated by him.
After the unification of the world, Gongliang Yixiao gradually grew up, and Gao Xueliu was no longer satisfied with her concubine, in a vain attempt to frame the queen, and ascended to the throne herself. However, Gongliang Yuzhi saw through her tricks, put her into the cold palace, and abolished her position. Gongliang Yixiao also became the adopted son of Queen Shi Fenglan.
As Gongliang Hengmian grows up, Gongliang Yuzhi is also getting older, he has no intention of taking the throne, and the prosperity of the future generations will be handed over to Hengmian to deal with.
Therefore, he gave the throne to Gongliang Hengmian and let him ascend the throne as the emperor, and he took Ye Xuemei out to travel the great rivers and mountains of the Song Kingdom.
And Gongliang Yixiao was also named Prince Yong, assisting Gongliang Hengmian. Both children support Shi Fenglan as their biological mother, and they are very filial. Shi Fenglan died until she died, and she had no worries about food and clothing, and everything went well.
