Wang Meiren was taken away by the Queen Mother, and her whereabouts are unknown, even after knowing the news, Han Ruzi did not immediately decide to act, but was more cautious, worried that it would hurt her mother's life.

But the imperial concubine was right, the situation waited for no one, and she was even more impatient with the emperor, and what happened in the next two days finally made Han Ruzi decide to make a desperate bet.

The first thing is that the little eunuch Liang An suddenly disappeared, he was one of the many eunuchs around the emperor, and he went to Lingyun Pavilion with the crowd every day, since he was bumped into by the emperor and was with Zuo Ji, he became much more honest and never left the team. But he didn't come with him that morning, Han Ruzi deliberately turned around and took a look when he entered Lingyun Pavilion, and he didn't see the little eunuch in the specified position, and there was no figure of him in the entire team.

Since then, Liang An has never appeared again, and no one has mentioned his name.

In the evening of the same day, when Han Ruzi went back to Tai'an Palace to rest, he found that even his personal attendants Zhang Youcai and Tong Qing'e were gone, replaced by two people who were completely strangers.

He asked casually, and after getting a perfunctory answer, he didn't ask more, he had already understood one thing: care without security is more harmful, it is still difficult for him to protect himself, and the more he cares about whom, the more unlucky he is.

From this, he learned that Zuo Ji had done it.

Zuo Ji's allegiance was not reliable at all, and after a few days of honesty, he found that the emperor did not seem to be as well prepared as he imagined, so he began to take action, first to get rid of the "criminal evidence" Liang An, and then to track down the person who had told the emperor, he did not suspect the imperial concubine for the time being, but arrested the attendants around the emperor.

Zhang Youcai and Tong Qing'e didn't know anything about the emperor, and Zuo Ji would take more drastic measures sooner or later.

After Han Ruzi made these inferences, he felt that he could not wait any longer, and would rather replace the known danger with the unknown.

The imperial concubine and Luo Huanzhang are unknown dangers.

On June 20 of the first year of success, the third day when Zhang Youcai and Tong Qing'e were taken away, it rained continuously, from morning to night, the emperor rested for a day, and around the time of Shen Shi in the afternoon, he put pen to paper and prepared to draft the holy decree, and the imperial concubine stood aside to dictate.

The imperial concubine is the younger sister of the queen mother, and when she withdraws from the waiters, she will not be suspicious.

"I rush with young and flatter Hongye ......" The imperial concubine recited slowly, first humbled herself for the emperor, and then recalled the great achievements of the three ancestors of Taizu, Emperor Lie, and Emperor Wu, and then lamented the successive collapse of Emperor Huan and Emperor Si, and pointed out that the court of Great Chu was controlled by traitors and was in danger, and the emperor ordered the ministers to escort him in the name of the ancestors of the Han family.

As soon as Han Ruzi heard it, he guessed that this was Luo Huanzhang's writing, and felt that it was too verbose, but he still wrote it stroke by stroke.

Finally entering the substantive stage, the imperial concubine said: "The great Sima of the Southern Army is a weak official, acting rebelliously and with bad intentions, and it is not suitable to be in charge of the forbidden army. She paused and pointed to the tip of the emperor's pen, "Please leave four or five words blank here, and then write 'Bone Fish Heavy Minister, the first emperor believes, I am appointed as the great Sima of the southern army, act cheaply'." ”

Han Ruzi wrote it down, put down his pen, looked up and asked, "That is to say, the person who gets this holy decree can make anyone become the Great Sima of the Southern Army?" ”

The imperial concubine nodded.

"Don't I need to know who it is?" Han Ruzi didn't take a pen.

The imperial concubine sighed lightly and said, "Does Your Majesty understand the danger of her situation?" ”

"Of course, once the Queen Mother has a more suitable puppet, she will replace me, or even kill me."

"But does Your Majesty know where the Queen Mother has come?"

Han Ruzi shook his head, he knew his ending, but he didn't know anything about the Queen Mother's specific plans.

"The Queen Mother needs a younger puppet, and it would be best if Your Majesty could give birth to the crown prince, if not, there would be the King of the East China Sea."

"King of the East Sea?"

"The King of the East China Sea is also the son of Emperor Huan, and his son is naturally qualified to succeed to the throne."

Han Ruzi was speechless, it turned out that he was not even the only puppet.

The imperial concubine continued: "Your Majesty knows that there is a position of internal living order in the palace. ”

"Hmm." Of course, Han Ruzi knew that the inner living order was a eunuch who had come to record the emperor's husband and wife, but he was disappointed.

"If Your Majesty has the opportunity to see the inner living notes he has written, you will see a lot of bad deeds, and any one of them is enough to prove that Your Majesty is not fit to be emperor."

Han Ruzi's eyes widened, "Bad deeds? I didn't do anything......" He did do some unseemly things, but calling it a "bad deed" is really a kind of false accusation.

The imperial concubine smiled and said: "It doesn't matter what Your Majesty has done, the pen is in the hands of the living order, and he only accepts the will of the Queen Mother." The internal living notes are usually kept secret, but a part of it will be handed over to the historian on a regular basis, and this part will be recorded in the history of the country, and when future generations look at it, they will only know that His Majesty is a misbehaving emperor, and the Queen Mother has to abolish it. ”

"Hey, I'd love to be abolished." If he can't be the real emperor, Han Ruzi hopes to return to his former life.

The imperial concubine's smile was more obvious, "Being abolished is just a saying, none of the abolished emperors of all dynasties can live long." ”

This is another practice, just like the holy decree drawn up by the Queen Mother, which is lenient on the surface, but in fact it is scrupulous, and naturally someone will kill the king for the Queen Mother.

"I understand all this, but I still want to know who the ministers who support me are."

The smile on the imperial concubine's face slowly disappeared, "Your Majesty is in the place of death and has to save himself, but the ministers of the court are taking the initiative to go to the soup to fight the fire, once it is revealed, the crime will affect the nine clans, and the risk will be greater." They are willing to take risks for His Majesty, but they don't want to take unnecessary risks. Luo Shi had to do everything possible to protect them, and he didn't tell me exactly which ministers were involved. ”

"In other words, whether this matter is successful or not depends on Luo Huanzhang alone, and I can only trust him."

"I believe in Master Luo." The imperial concubine took two steps back, "This pen is in the hands of Your Majesty, whether to write or not, and how to write it is up to Your Majesty to decide, if Your Majesty doubts everyone, then you don't need anyone's help." ”

Han Ruzi picked up the pen again, the imperial concubine was right, he didn't have more choices, but he still said: "I know that the person who delivered the note is not Zhang Yanghao." ”

The imperial concubine was slightly stunned, "Zhang Yanghao...... Say it to Your Majesty in person? ”

Han Ruzi shook his head, "There are some things that don't need to be said, Luo Huanzhang will not appoint someone like Zhang Yanghao, that's all." ”

"Again, this matter is very important, and it is not necessarily certain, Your Majesty is deep in the inner palace, the less you know, the better."

Han Ruzi continued to write, but he was very disgusted with the sentence "the less you know, the better", if they didn't believe in the emperor's ability, why should they risk saving the emperor?

Depriving Shangguan of the seal and giving it to an unknown person is just a few lines, and then the imperial concubine asks the emperor to write a large paragraph of high-sounding words, so that the truly useful content only occupies a small part of the middle of the holy decree.

"You're going to use this decree to deceive Jing Yao?" After Han Ruzi finished writing, he immediately understood the intention.

The imperial concubine smiled and said: "Your Majesty is really smart, it is impossible to steal the treasure seal from Jing Yao, I often help the Queen Mother deal with government affairs in the Qinzheng Palace, and the prepared will will be taken by me to Jing Yao to stamp the treasure seal, I hope to catch up with the will when there are many times, and the holy decree of His Majesty will be sandwiched in it." ”

"Won't Jing Yao find out?" Han Ruzi was a little surprised, the idea of the imperial concubine was very simple, but it was also very risky.

Jing Yao's eyes only stared at the treasure seal, never looking at the content of the will. If he really saw it, I would be the first martyr to be loyal to His Majesty. ”

Han Ruzi had nothing to say, he was taking risks, and the imperial concubine was taking even greater risks.

Maybe he is really too suspicious, maybe there are really people in this world who dedicate themselves to benevolence and righteousness without asking for anything in return, Han Ruzi thought of Liu Jie, who protected the seal with death, and was more confident.

The same edict was written again, and the imperial concubine explained: "Just in case, Shangguan Xuan is very vigilant, and in case the secret edict is discovered, there is a backup." ”

Then the imperial concubine dictated the third holy decree, the beginning and end are almost unchanged, but the most critical middle paragraph is to remove Cui Hong from the post of concubine and general, and order him to obey the order, and who the seal ribbon will be transferred to is still blank.

There is also a fourth holy decree, this time it is the removal of the position of the general of the inner court, Zhonglang will be responsible for commanding the palace guards, and the replacement is to protect the emperor's safety in time.

This is enough, there are still forces such as the Northern Army and the Patrol City in the capital, there is no need to take them all, as for the Chinese officials of the dynasty, as long as the emperor has mastered the army, they will come to pay respects.

After the decree was written, the imperial concubine folded it and put it away carefully, ready to leave, "Taifu Cui Hong is about to return to Beijing, please wait for good news for Your Majesty." ”

Han Ruzi went to the edge of the bed and sat down, listening to the sound of the rain outside, his heart was empty, he really did it, he opened the bow and didn't look back, and the next thing was no longer under his control: Cheng, he is the real emperor, and he can take his mother to his side; defeated, he will be a "bad" deposed emperor and will be recorded in the history of the country.

"The emperor ......" Han Ruzi muttered to himself, and a picture suddenly appeared in his mind: the hall was gloomy, the red pillars were so high that the top could hardly be seen, and the sunlight that accidentally shone in lost its sharpness, leaving only a promise, for fear of destroying the solemn atmosphere here, the old emperor with a blurred face sat on a high throne, thinking that there was no one nearby, and said in a lonely voice: "I am alone." ”

The emperor is always lonely, the puppet is like this, and the Ming monarch is no exception, as great as Emperor Wu, he can't escape the shroud of loneliness.

Han Ruzi couldn't tell whether this picture was his imagination or something real, he sat there, empty and his heart gradually filled with something, he thought, he can't just wait, the queen mother is adventuring, the imperial concubine is adventuring, Luo Huanzhang is adventuring, those ministers who don't know who are also adventuring, how can the emperor "wait for good news" here?

The door opened, and the eunuch Zhang Youcai and the palace maid Tong Qing'e came in, standing in front of the emperor trembling with injuries and tears on their faces.

Zuo Ji changed his mind again, and he was demonstrating to the emperor.
