Chapter 948: Chaos in Chang'an
The war in the north is in full swing, and Su Ren is ready for everything, just waiting for the arrival of the last moment of the Wuhuan and Xianbei coalition forces. Therefore, the Northland is exceptionally quiet. However, Chang'an, which is thousands of miles away, is completely chaotic and has become a pot of porridge.
Princess Guantao, who had not entered the palace for a long time, suddenly appeared in the residence of the Empress Dowager of Renshou Palace. The moment she saw the Queen Mother, Princess Guantao cried like a tearful person, holding the Queen Mother's feet with a handful of snot and tears, which was called a sadness. The Queen Mother was very useful in her heart, when he was still Wang Meiren, in order to let his son Liu Che ascend to the throne, he did not hesitate to send gold, silver, and everything that could be sent, dignity had no meaning at that time. Looking at the appearance of Princess Guantao now, how is she so similar to herself back then.
"Ahem!" Tian Wei coughed: "The eldest princess is up, right?" What grievances do you have to say, you just cry so blindly, how can you get the Queen Mother to help you? ”
The Queen Mother also hurriedly said: "Yes! Hurry up and give the eldest princess that cushion, our sisters have seen each other for a long time, and the old body really misses it! Go and let people prepare some wine and food, and the old body wants to have a few drinks with the eldest princess. ”
"Thank you, Queen Mother!" Princess Guantao stopped crying and wiped her tears.
Princess Pingyang sneered: "Auntie, you haven't entered the palace for a long time, why did you suddenly come here today?" Is there something difficult to do, let's talk about it and make us happy. ”
The Queen Mother glared at Princess Pingyang: "Bastard, do you have such a conversation with the eldest princess?" ”
Tian Wei glanced at Princess Pingyang and showed an approving look: "Yes!" The eldest princess cried so sadly, she must have encountered something big, although the elder sister rarely asks about the government, but the family affairs still have to be managed, and His Majesty is also very filial, as long as it is not related to national affairs, His Majesty will still listen to the Queen Mother. ”
Princess Guantao held back her tears, her voice choked, and she knelt down in front of the Queen Mother with a plop: "The Queen Mother save me!" ”
The Queen Mother was taken aback, and a person who was usually very tough actually whispered so repeatedly, it seemed that the things she had encountered were not small: "You two quickly help the eldest princess up!" Fast! ”
Princess Guantao knelt on the ground and was reluctant to get up, Princess Pingyang and Tian Wei didn't pull for a long time: "The Queen Mother, not the minister, the minister has no intention of harming His Majesty, it's all them, they did it!" ”
Hearing that someone was trying to kill the emperor, the Queen Mother, Princess Pingyang and Tian Wei couldn't sit still, and immediately asked, "What's going on?" Make it clear! ”
Although Princess Guantao is domineering, she understands a truth. He is the daughter of the Liu family, and with the Liu family reigning for one day, he is a princess, even if he is not as good as a chicken as a princess now, but it is not something that anyone who wants to provoke. If one day the Liu family's country is over, she, the princess, will naturally be nothing, not to mention that the people she offended before will not let her go, and it is really hard to say whether she can survive with her own ability.
Princess Guantao is a smart person, and he can see what kind of person the current emperor is. Even if the emperor is mediocre, there are smart people behind the emperor. Not to mention anything else, Su Ren is not a master who can grasp and rub if he wants. There is nothing happening in Chang'an City now, if something really happens, Su Ren has a large army in his hands, as long as a king of Qin shouts out, not to mention how powerful the people in his house are, he is not even a bedbug in front of Su Ren's army. The Huns are powerful, right? How's it going now?
So, Princess Guantao made a decision, he wanted to tell the truth. And to snitch before it happens. In this way, at least you can take yourself out, even if you really implicate yourself in the end, you will have something to say at that time. If you really follow others, you will definitely die without a place to be buried, and you will be ruined, which is not what Princess Guantao wants.
1510 told the Queen Mother, Tian Wei, and Princess Pingyang what he knew without any omission. Among them, it is natural to present himself as a victim, completely the kind of character who is forced, forced, and used.
"Bastard! A little confessor is so vicious! The Queen Mother was furious when she heard this: "What is the Tingwei Mansion for?" Are all the dead people? As soon as His Majesty left, such a big thing happened in Chang'an City, and they turned a blind eye? And those nobles, what are they going to do? Rebel! Go, call Tingwei and Zhijinwu to the old body, and the old body wants to ask them if they are comfortable eating with the court's money? ”
"Sister is angry, I'm afraid this matter ......"
"You! It's just that you are too timid to take on the responsibility, no wonder Your Majesty doesn't look down on you as prime minister! The Queen Mother glared at Tian Wei: "By the way, there is also Dou Ying, and I will also find the old body!" The old body wants to see how he behaves as a prime minister! ”
There was not much time, and the court officials of all sizes, such as Prime Minister Dou Ying, Tingwei Zhang Tang, Weiwei Gufu, Imperial Historian Wang Hui, and Sikong Jiyan, were all gathered in Renshou Palace. Before entering the palace gate, Dou Ying met Zhang Tang and the husband. The three of them glanced at each other, and the husband couldn't hold back his words: "What's the matter?" When did the Queen Mother actually ......"
Zhang Tang had a straight face: "This matter is strange, not necessarily a good thing!" ”
"What? Are you saying that the Queen Mother took advantage of Her Majesty's absence to ......"
Dou Ying coughed: "You are talking nonsense again, when will you be able to control your mouth?" What happened last time? ”
Wang Hui and Ji Dian also arrived in a hurry, and Ji Dark, Dou Ying and others were also there, and immediately felt that something was wrong. Wang Hui looked left and right: "How many people know what the Queen Mother summoned for?" ”
Several people all shook their heads, and only Zhang Tang was silent. Wang Hui asked Zhang Tang, "Lord Tingwei knows?" ”
Zhang Tang looked at a few people: "The students also guessed, someone saw Princess Guantao's car driving an hour to Renshou Palace." ”
"Princess Guantao! Could it be ......" The bushman was so shocked that he almost leaked his mouth.
Dou Ying took a deep breath: "Everyone, let's go!" The Queen Mother summoned me and waited, and we can't postpone! ”
Renshou Palace was built by Liu Che specifically for his mother last year, and he sent someone to let Su Ren design the drawings, using the skills of the public loser, using all the best materials, which can be said to be at the expense of labor and manpower, and the money spent was more than Su Ren built Shuyuan Street back then. After it was built, everyone who had seen it said that it was good, the pavilions and pavilions were not surprising, and the most wonderful thing was that an activity field was built, and the Queen Mother could move here when she was fine, there were a lot of unheard of fitness equipment, anyway, according to Su Ren, these things were very useful. The most amazing thing is that since the Queen Mother lived in Renshou Palace, she didn't even have a headache and brain fever for a year, so the rich people in Chang'an followed suit and built an activity field at home, exercising when they had nothing to do.
As soon as the chamberlain entered, he heard the queen mother's octave voice coming from inside: "Let them in!" If you can't give an explanation to the old body, the old body will also kill! ”
Headed by Dou Ying, everyone rushed in, and before everyone saluted, the Queen Mother pointed to Dou Ying and asked: "You say, you say first, what do you want to do?" ”
Dou Ying was speechless for a long time: "Queen Mother, I really don't know what we have done wrong, make you angry, and ask the Queen Mother to show me." ”
"Humph! I don't know at this time, Tian Wei, tell them what the chaos in Chang'an has become! ”
Tian Wei sighed, and picked up the important things that Princess Guantao said and told Dou Ying and the others. Dou Ying, Guan Fu, and Zhang Tang, who knew the inside story, were expressionless. Wang Hui and Ji Di, who didn't know the inside story, were really scared. The two of them had long mouths and were stunned for a long time. Wang Hui's teeth clucked and fought: "It's really unheard of to have such a thing, they are going to rebel!" ”
"Humph! You're a great historian who doesn't even notice it? The Queen Mother was furious and pointed at Wang Hui: "If it weren't for the eldest princess telling the old body, and the old body wouldn't believe it, what would you all eat?" That's how he did things for His Majesty? ”
"The Queen Mother is angry!" Dou Ying took a step forward and glanced at Princess Guantao: "Queen Mother, the minister has something to report, please retreat!" ”
"Say! There are no outsiders here, what can't be said! Do you want to hear what else you have to say? ”
"Queen Mother!" Zhang Tang also stepped forward: "This matter is related to Your Majesty's plan, and I also ask the Queen Mother to step back and listen to what the Prime Minister has to say." ”
The Queen Mother saw that there were some doorways in this, and the anger just now was almost gone, and she muttered a little: "Hmph! You all go down, Dou Ying stays, and the old body wants to listen to what you say! ”
Tian Wei hurriedly waved his hand and asked everyone to withdraw, leaving only the Queen Mother and Dou Ying in the lobby. I can't hide it anymore, so Dou Ying told the Queen Mother about Emperor Liu Che's plan, and reiterated that this incident is not as simple as it seems, the court, the place, and even those hiding in the shadows are not as much as they seem, but their strength is very strong, and it is extremely difficult to catch these people in one net, so it is not the right time to do it now.
After listening to Dou Ying's report, the Queen Mother pondered for a long time: "Is the emperor really planning to do this?" ”
"Empress Dowager, the minister has never lied, His Majesty has discussed this matter with the minister, Zhang Tang, Guan Fu and others for a long time, and only then can he have this countermeasure!" Dou Ying sighed: "However, I was so troubled by Princess Guantao today, I am afraid that some people have already gotten the news, and it is not possible to catch them all." ”
"Ahem!" The Queen Mother coughed to relieve her embarrassment: "Then with the prime minister's plan, how to remedy it?" ”
"The Queen Mother, you can only do it in advance! As for the rest, we can only track it down slowly. ”
"This Liu prostitute!" The Queen Mother immediately pointed the finger at Princess Guantao: "I don't do good things, but I do something to harm our mother and son, it's really infuriating!" ”
"The Queen Mother is angry, Princess Guantao has indeed done bad things with good intentions this time, and the minister thinks that he can't be too harsh, how can he say that he also has the first accusation."
"Hey!" The Queen Mother sighed: "It seems that the old body is really old, since the emperor and you have a plan, then you can do it yourself, and when the emperor comes back, the old body will explain to him the matter of Liu Yan...... Hum! Go ahead, the old body doesn't care anymore! ”
From the time Dou Ying walked out of Renshou Palace, Chang'an suddenly underwent earth-shaking changes. The Ten Princes' Mansion was not sealed, and the arrested people were discharged from Suzaku Street for more than two miles, and it was difficult to find a vote in the prisons where mortals were held in the Tingwei Mansion and the Weiwei Mansion. There is even a joke in Chang'an City that it is difficult to go to prison without identity.
