"Queen Qiyu, King Ningjun asks to see you." The great eunuch Pinghai hurried to the outside of the hall, knelt down on his knees and reported loudly, the look on his face was a little embarrassed. They all knew the temperament and habits of the Empress Xiao very well, so even if the previous guards had been in it for so long, no one dared to ask. On the contrary, these eunuchs who knew how to read words and colors had faintly sensed a hint of ominous information.

Xiao Shi's expression froze, and then he glanced at the wind without a trace around him, and then he lightly ordered:

"You go and tell Wu Xi, just say that this palace is occasionally unwell, and if there is anything to talk about tomorrow." After she heard Pinghai leave, she waved her hand and motioned for everyone to retreat to the apse. For Feng Wuxi's son, Xiao Shi knew very well, although the excuse just now could stop him for a moment, but those eunuchs and palace maids would definitely not be able to stop Feng Wuxi.

Sure enough, Feng Wuxian and the others had just hid in the apse, and Feng Wuxian angrily pushed the people who were blocking the door and rushed into the main hall in a few steps. "Mother, why don't you want to see me?" He almost forgot the etiquette, his face was full of resentment and disappointment, "In the past few days, you have always sent people to comfort and say that you will set the overall situation immediately, but you have been delaying until today. Queen Mother, are you stalling for time to wait for the seventh brother to come back? He stared at his mother with blazing eyes, his fists clenched.

The people who eavesdropped in the apse couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts, Feng Wu regretted that since he had this suspicion, he must have noticed the attitude of Queen Xiao. Previously, they had decided to expose all the major events tomorrow, and even planned to clear the forces of Zhang Gan, the commander of the Nine Gates, tonight, and the existence of that wind was undoubtedly another variable, at this time. Shaw's move was a decisive blow.

"It's a pity, are you questioning this palace?" Xiao's face was already covered with frost, and he quietly made a gesture towards Rouping. Rouping, who knew what to expect, immediately withdrew from the main hall and even closed the door. Feng Wuxi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. I thought my mother was trying to reveal her intentions. Unexpectedly, Xiao's underground words made his heart sink into the bottomless abyss.

"It's a pity, don't forget, this palace has never given you any promises!" Xiao Shi said coldly, his eyes cold and self-contained. "You and Wuji are both sons of this palace, maybe you have been more favored since you were a child, but now he is the rightful crown prince, the prince of the country!" Her words hit Feng Wuxi's heart hard, "The emperor is seriously ill, as a son of man, you don't know how to do your filial piety day and night, but you frequently persecute the palace, is this what the prince should behave?" ”

Feng Wuxi was already stunned by this round of blows like a storm, and he never expected it. The queen mother, who had always been acquiescing to his plans, would be a completely different person.

After a long time, he said with difficulty: "Queen Mother, what do you mean by this?" Do you really just ignore it? He suddenly burst out completely, rushed forward in a few steps, grabbed Shaw's shoulders almost frantically, and yelled loudly. Or is the queen mother just playing tricks on me? ”

"Someone!" Xiao Shi shouted loudly as early as when Feng Wuxi's behavior was abnormal, "Take this rebel to this palace!" Even so, she was shocked by this son's crazy actions, and it was only after a few strong eunuchs held the wind down that she stroked her chest and coughed violently for a while, and only after a long time did she raise her head, her face full of gloom.

"It's a pity, you forced this palace!" Xiao Shi looked condescendingly at this once favorite son, and lost interest in his words, "If you know the current affairs, you shouldn't lose your temper just now, and then you may be able to be a rich and idle king." It's a pity that you will never be able to get your hands on the throne. She didn't seem to feel that there was any cruelty in her words, "The attribution of the throne has long been determined by the emperor, and the palace is just a testament, and there is no room for change." ”

Feng Wuxi, who was originally resentful and desperate, finally woke up when he heard the word "death". He stared deeply at his mother, and suddenly let out a burst of wild laughter, "Hahahaha, I tried my best to win the support of the queen mother, but it turned out to be your shield!" His gaze instantly became as sharp as a sharp arrow, "If it weren't for me blocking the view of the ministers for you, I'm afraid that the news of my father's death would have spread long ago?" He had vaguely understood what his mother meant at the beginning, so he accumulated endless resentment in his heart.

Xiao suddenly turned his head, obviously not wanting to entangle with this son any longer. "Take King Ning Jun down to watch him and detain him, and make sure he doesn't come into contact with any officials." She commanded in a deep voice.

When the wind was taken away, it never made any more sound, as if it was silently accepting the cruel truth. However, from his sparkling eyes, Xiao saw despair and resentment, however, she had no choice. In order to truly maintain her position and power and that of her family, she had to make the choice of sacrificing one.

Seeing that the idlers and others had receded, Feng Wuxian walked out of the apse without a trace, with an extremely strange expression on his face. From the bottom of his heart, being able to get the support of his mother is undoubtedly the greatest guarantee for ascending to the throne, but the scene of Shicai is too shocking.

Seeing Feng Wuxi's despair, he could even think that if his behavior was a little lacking, and even if he was also a powerless prince, then the queen mother's attitude might be exactly the same. The queen of the world, Xiao, needs a son who is a strong man who can protect her powerful son, and other than that, everything can be abandoned.

Chen Lingcheng pretended to be Shen Ruhai and hurried to the mansion of the remaining Xin Qi of the Ministry of War. Although Zhang Qian, the commander of the Nine Gates, blocked the mansions of the major ministers, he did not pay much attention to Yu Xinqi, the official of the military department. This person was born as a civil servant, although he was promoted to the rank of military minister by virtue of his qualifications and prudence, but he was not tough in the background, just by virtue of the emperor's favor. Once the emperor dies, he can't do much, so these days, Yu Xinqi's mansion has become more and more cold.

After handing over his gold waist card, Chen Lingcheng immediately felt the respectful attitude of those soldiers. In today's capital, the former ministers have long lost their usual prestige, but those officials who have frequent contacts with the wind are more popular. Of course, among the officials, if they can get a waist card from Queen Xiao's favor, it will be even more valuable. Several sergeants are all from the yamen of the infantry commander, and they have already learned all the taboos from their superiors, so they naturally will not ignore the meaning of this waist card.

Yu Xinqi was stunned when he saw the appearance of the person who came, although he didn't have much contact with Shen Ruhai, he always knew that this person was quite popular with Queen Xiao. At this moment, this doctor of the Imperial Hospital is coming to his mansion, he must have received the queen's decree, thinking of this, his mind suddenly became active.

After just a few words of greeting, Chen Lingcheng signaled Yu Xinqi to retreat from the subordinates, and then carefully took out the secret decree in his arms. "Lord Yu, the queen mother has always been diligent and loyal, so she entrusted a major matter to you, don't make a mistake yourself!" He looked at the other party with a smile, and solemnly got up and picked up the secret decree, "In accordance with the queen's decree, Yu Xinqi will act according to the secret decree, and must not be lazy!" ”

Yu Xinqi hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and then took the thin roll of paper, and cold sweat was already on his forehead. When he unfolded it, he was completely stunned, his face was full of confusion, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and his hands were trembling slightly. "Lord Shen, what Niangniang said in the secret decree is too amazing, what is it ......" He never thought that things would suddenly take a turn for the worse, just looking at the arrogant and domineering appearance of the people who led the Yamen in the infantry army in recent days, who would have thought that the Empress Xiao would suddenly take Zhang Qian, the commander of the Nine Gates?

"Lord Yu, there is no need to say more, the queen's decree is like this, do you obey or resist the decree?" Chen Lingcheng's face instantly became extremely cold, "This official is just the person who transmits the decree, and there will be someone to help you at that time." Of course, if you insist on disobeying the order, the official can only reply to the queen mother and ask her to choose another good minister, but Lord Yu has a good future......"

Yu Xinqi immediately panicked, and hurriedly got up and admitted: "How dare the lower officials disobey the queen's will, they were just a little suspicious before, and asked Lord Shen to cover up for the lower officials." He probably remembered the difficulty of this task, and gritted his teeth and said, "It's just that Lord Shen should know that although the lower official is an official of the military department, he does not have the real power to transfer soldiers and horses. However, Zhang Gan, the commander of the Nine Gates, really controlled all the defense forces in the capital, and there was a huge difference between them. If there is no noble person to help, I am afraid that the lower officials will ruin the mother's plan. Although the credit is indispensable after the deed, Yu Xinqi still has to spit out the worries in his heart, he is not willing to send him to death.

"Lord Yu, rest assured, since the queen has made a decree, there will naturally be someone to help." Chen Lingcheng said inscrutablely, "The lower officials will go with you to announce the decree, and then you can take them all down at the right time." Chen Lingcheng did not reveal that the infantry commander Yamen had other internal responses, for a person like Yu Xinqi, only when the matter came to let him taste the strength comparison between the two sides, can he really be convinced.

It was easy for Zhang Qian to spare a little free time, and then he had time to relax in the back office and play a set of Tai Chi. After the whole routine was played, he already felt a slight sweat on his forehead, and immediately straightened up and stretched lazily, his face full of smug smiles. Although he, the Admiral of the Nine Gates, seems to be powerful and powerful, he is always under the nose of the emperor, and he has to be cautious in everything, and he never dares to collude privately. It was Wang Feng of Ningjun who did not regret it, he also climbed into the relationship the year before last, when the emperor proposed to establish the crown prince, he was disappointed for a while, and then came to his senses. Rather than letting a newcomer succeed him, it is better to gamble on luck, if he can successfully push Feng Wuhes to the throne, then he is undoubtedly the first hero of Qingtian's protection.
