Yecheng Wei Palace, there is no silence in the sultry summer heat. In the excessive silence, there seemed to be some terrible turmoil brewing.

In the Jiaofang Palace, the palace maid Xiaohu, the confidant of the queen Gao Yuanjun, hurriedly broke in, and she couldn't care about any etiquette. She ran around the hall with a blank face, and shouted "Your Highness! Your Highness! ”

Empress Gao Yuanjun heard the voice and came out of the inner bed. She could hear that Xiaohu's voice was wrong, but she could barely calm down.

Before the queen asked, as soon as Xiaohu saw the queen, he immediately fell down on the queen's knees and knelt down, holding the queen's skirt, looking up at Gao Yuanjun and saying, "Your Highness, the Duke of Taiyuan has broken in with someone!" The palace is full of people from Taiyuan Gong! All with swords! ”

Obviously, the situation is serious, otherwise Xiaohu would not be so panicked.

After receiving a report about the emperor's poisoning in the Taiyuan Mansion, Gao Yuanjun felt that something was going to happen. didn't expect her second brother Gao Yang to drink poisonous wine not only did not die, but also led troops into the palace so soon.

"Lord? Where is the Lord? Gao Yuanjun asked by holding Xiaohu's shoulder.

She believes that this is what Yuan Shanjian did, and he should come out and take responsibility.

Overnight, Gao Yuanjun was disappointed in this husband. actually drugged his own son and became ill. Although it is not poisonous, this kind of unrelenting means to achieve the goal has made her teeth cold.

"Duke Taiyuan is here to see His Royal Highness......" Xiaohu still looked up at Gao Yuanjun.

"Queen!"

"Your Highness!"

The palace maids screamed and ran in, and there was a sudden chaos in the Jiaofang Palace.

Before Gao Yuanjun could speak, the door of the temple was slammed open, and sword-wielding warriors rushed in, breaking the original silence of the Jiaofang Palace. The dignity of the emperor and queen was trampled on in an instant.

The prince's loud cry came from the inner bed.

The samurai looked around as if no one was around, and whispered.

Gao Yuanjun's heart was immediately tightened.

Xiaohu looked back and saw this scene, and stood up in front of the queen.

Those palace maids rushed to the queen's side. I don't know if they are protecting the queen, or if they hope that the queen will protect them.

The samurai came by order, and when they first went to the inner palace, it was still an unreachable place like the queen's Jiaofang Palace, and there was a kind of excitement and curiosity. Some people even stared at the glass in the window, eager to go up and touch it now. What kind of value would it be if such a precious thing could be taken off and taken out?

"Wait ****, this is the queen's bedroom, who let you trespass without permission?" Xiaohu was bold, and although his voice trembled, he still questioned.

Gao Yuanjun brushed away the little tiger and took a few steps forward, looking at these warriors who had no fear at all. Many people stared at her as fearlessly as if they were visiting something. Where is the power of the Queen? Emperors are all puppets, let alone empresses.

At this moment, Gao Yuanjun suddenly understood Yuan Shanjian's thoughts. He has endured for many years, and I don't know how many unbearable places he has in between.

She knew that someone would come and negotiate terms with her.

The door of the palace was opened, and the strict palace ban became a busy city with people coming and going. Sure enough, I saw a black-robed man walk in, his steps were very heavy, and he seemed a little impatient, although he was already trying his best to suppress it.

It was her second brother Gao Yang.

A mother and twin brother and sister met at this time.

"What is Taiyuan Gong doing? Trespassing on the palace ban, dancing with swords and swords, even your father and brother dare not do things, how dare you do it? Gao Yuanjun questioned Gao Yang first.

She could already see that the second brother's audacity had reached the point of madness. She had to do her best to grasp her few favorable conditions and try her best to deter him. The more you are soft and scared, the more you are likely to lose.

"Doesn't the queen know what the Lord did?" Gao Yang said as he glanced at the situation in the Jiaofang Palace, as if he was looking for Yuan Shanjian. "This person bullies and poisons loyal ministers like this, and he is no longer worthy of being the Son of Heaven. Heaven borrowed my hand to punish him, which is also providential. Gao Yang swept his gaze back to Gao Yuanjun again, wanting to see her attitude.

At that moment, Gao Yuanjun was keenly aware that if she dared to say a word......

She saw the swords of the samurai.

"In that case, Duke Taiyuan should go to Your Majesty and come to Jiaofang Hall to do something?" Gao Yuanjun actually still doesn't know what her second brother's intentions are?

It is true that the emperor is not in the palace.

Gao Yuanjun doesn't know where her husband, the Son of Heaven of Da Wei, has gone.

It's dark.

On summer nights, Yecheng is so hot that there is no wind. A heavy rain is urgently needed to relieve the sweltering heat and bring in a new breath.

In the mansion of King Yuanhui of Jibei, the lights are bright. Emperor Yuan Zenjian wandered in the courtyard. An atmosphere of agitation permeated the courtyard.

Lin Xingren, the regular attendant, also refused to stop walking over and over, looking at the emperor for a while, and then looking at the gate of the courtyard.

The rest of the eunuchs and servants did not dare to move, but only stood in an inconspicuous place and listened to orders. Everyone knew something big was coming.

Yuan Shanjian did not return to the palace, and came directly to the palace of the king of Jibei. However, it is only now that I know how difficult it is to do something.

Terumoto Yoshimi's original idea was very simple. Gao Cheng is not in Yecheng, this is the best opportunity. Gao Yang doesn't have to worry at all, as long as he kills Gao Yang and Gao Cheng's other younger brothers, and then firmly holds Yecheng in his hands, and re-establishes Gao Cheng's son and his nephew Gao Xiaowan as the king of Bohai, you can achieve a balance of power and leave everyone speechless.

Gao Xiaowan is the son of the eldest princess Yuan Zhonghua and the only biological son of Yuan Zhonghua, the concubine of King Gao, so he can naturally be the heir of the Gao family. And Gao Xiaowan is the nephew of the Wei family, and the relationship with the Yuan family is flesh and blood, and the kings of the Yuan family will definitely accept the emperor's decision.

The objections of the Gao family and the Yuan family were soothed, and Gao Xiaowan was found as a suitable candidate for a temporary transition, that is, when the imperial power was restored. Gao Xiaowan is just a few years old, in name only, and he can't manipulate the emperor, and the emperor can really take power himself.

However, when it came to the end, I realized that things were not as simple as I thought.

The kings of the clan, who are full of resentment and want to shout every day to clear the king's side and get rid of the traitors, either they don't have the strength to do this, or they are afraid of being burned. Temporarily, there was no way to assemble people to control the capital first.

It's a missed opportunity.

Yuan Shan saw that he couldn't wait for the news that someone was willing to echo for a long time. Fortunately, he still felt a little comforted in his heart. Fortunately, this is Gao Yang, not Gao Cheng. Otherwise, it's unimaginable. He knew that Gao Yang must have entered the palace to ask the queen for advice.

Yuan Shanjian really hated it in his heart, if he had available soldiers, he should first kill the princess Lou, Princess Gao Yuan Zhonghua, and Gao Cheng's younger brothers and sons.

Lin Xingren was actually more anxious than the emperor in his heart. He couldn't afford to miss such a great opportunity. Why did King Jibei go for so long and not come back?

He was already distraught when he glanced at the emperor, and he was even more uneasy than the emperor. At this time, if you miss a moment, you will be less sure. Since you can't wait for the news of the kings of the clan, it is better to gather the eunuchs in the palace first.

Lin Xingren made a decision in his heart, and suddenly he had the heart to die generously. Walk over to Motozenmi.

"Lord!" He shouted.

Yuan Shanjian was so shocked that his body trembled, and he immediately came back to his senses and asked inexplicably, "Where is King Gao?!" ”

Lin Xingren was stunned, and first understood what the emperor meant. By the time he realized that the emperor was subconsciously afraid of Gao Cheng's return, it was already too late.

The door was slammed open.

"Lord! Lord! "Jibei Wang Yuanhui stumbled in and looked for Yuan Shanjian everywhere.

"Uncle Wang! What about people? Yuan Shanjian immediately became excited and ran towards Yuan Hui.

"Your Majesty...... ......"He was so anxious and frightened that he couldn't speak clearly."

Yuan Zen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled reluctantly, hoping that it was not too late. "It's good to be here......"

"Taibao...... Sun Longque...... Break in! Yuan Hui finally took a breath and finished his words.

"Sun Longque ?!!!" Yuan Shanjian suddenly fell into the glacier. When he understood, he asked unwillingly, "What about Yuan Yong?" ”

"Yuan Yong is so sick that he can't stay ......," Yuan Hui replied dejectedly.

Gaoyang Wang Yuanyong was their last hope, but they didn't expect him to be so sick at this time that he couldn't get off the house.

Sun Teng, Yuan Shanjian has always had a solid evil feeling in his heart. Before he entered the succession order, he was still the son of King Qinghe, and when he was young, he knew that this Sun Teng had forced to death Emperor Yuan Gong of the Liezong Festival under the pagoda of Yongning Temple in Luoyang, and personally killed the little emperor Yuan Long brought by Gao Huan from Xindu.

Is it his turn today?

Yuan Shanjian lost his mind all of a sudden.

Outside, however, there was a lot of noise, and then there was a lot of noise and shouting.

It's finally here.

Motozen looked desperately at the opening of the gate.

What he saw first was Xue Liang's sharp blade, then Sun Teng's gloomy face and eyes full of murderous intent.

Sun Teng, standing in front of Yuan Shan's meeting, didn't say a word.

The chaotic army poured in, and the eunuchs, slaves, and maids all exclaimed in amazement, and they were in a mess. But seeing Sun Taibao standing silently, holding a sword in his hand, it suddenly made people feel full of gloom and horror.

The courtyard was suddenly quiet. No one dares to speak out again, as if they will become the target of public criticism as soon as they make a sound, and then they may suffer the misfortune of being in a different place.

In the midst of the silence, Lin Xingren, the regular attendant, suddenly stepped forward a few steps, pointed at Sun Teng and shouted, "Chaotic ministers and thieves, what is the purpose of Chen Bing Yaowu in front of the Son of Heaven?" ”

Even Yuan Shanjian was shocked by this sudden feeling. And this moment is the moment he regrets the most.

Wang Yuanhui of Jibei quietly hid behind the emperor.

Everyone thought that Lin Xingren would die on the spot. Motozen thinks so too.

However, Sun Teng didn't even look at Lin Xingren as if he hadn't heard it. Lin Xingren only has flesh and blood.

Sun Teng looked at the entire courtyard. In the end, he saw Yuan Hui, the king of Jibei behind Yuan Shanjian.

Yuan Hui tried his best to hide behind Yuan Shanjian. He also immediately realized Sun Teng's attention to him. He didn't understand why Sun Teng didn't look at Lin Xingren, but paid attention to him, and he was vigilant in his heart.

Everyone looked at Sun Teng.

Sun Teng stretched out his hand and pointed at Yuan Hui, and nodded his hand to signal him to step forward. The attitude is arrogant and contemptuous, and he doesn't take Yuan Hui in his eyes at all.

Lin Xingren was also attracted to attention, and he looked back at Yuan Hui. He himself retreated with his mouth shut and only stood at the side of Emperor Yuan Shanjian to protect him.

Lin Xingren is a very smart person.

Yuan Hui hesitated. But he still walked up and smiled at Sun Tengqiang, "Sun Taibao ......"

He knew that now his life was in Sun Teng's hands. If he refuses to come forward, he may not be able to dodge, but as long as Sun Teng feels unsatisfactory, the consequences may be more serious.

Sun Teng ignored him.

He didn't bother to pay attention to him. He has been dissatisfied with Yuan Hui for a long time. Now in Dongbai Hall, the grandmother of King Gao and Princess Yuan Yuyi of Langya, he was the one who drove him out of the house in a fit of anger. Because of Yuan Yuyi, Gao Cheng, the prince at that time, acted in a disordered manner, so that he was deposed from the throne. Sun Teng thinks so. He felt that he could not let this prostitute harm the eldest prince again.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Hui picked her up and sent her back to Gao Cheng in every possible way. Moreover, Yuan Hui also tried his best to win her status and status, and it is conceivable what his intentions were.

Sun Teng remained motionless, waiting for Yuan Hui to come in front of him.

Seeing that he was not approaching, and the hand holding the sword also hung down, Yuan Hui breathed a sigh of relief. He had already thought about it, but he just said some soft words, as long as he could save his life first, even if he was humiliated, he would endure it.

Now everyone is curious. I don't know why Sun Teng just asked Yuan Hui to step forward.

"Sun Taibao......" Yuan Hui exclaimed with a smile, he had already prepared his words in his heart.

However, suddenly there was a flash of cold light.

Then a round thing fell to the ground and rolled a long way away.

When everyone saw the head that was actually Wang Yuanhui of Jibei, they immediately screamed.

Sun Teng's face and body were splashed with Yuan Hui's blood, and he walked over to Yuan Shanjian without even wiping it.

Yuan Hui's body fell to the ground, blood spilling all over the ground. Everyone went back.

Lin Xingren was nervous again, but he was still in front of the emperor and did not retreat.

Yuan Shanjian was horrified in his heart. He opened his mouth to say something. But his throat was so tight that he couldn't make a sound at all.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Taiyuan is waiting for Your Majesty in the palace." Sun Teng only said this sentence.

Yuan Shan almost collapsed when he saw that his body was weak. It turned out that Sun Teng turned out to be Gao Yang's person. At this moment, his mind spun fast, and he immediately thought that if Gao Yang really wanted to kill him, he only needed to fake his hand to Sun Teng, why did he have to go back to the palace and kill him again?

The discovery almost made him ecstatic. He's still alive. Suddenly, I thought that there was a queen in the palace. He has always treated the queen well, as long as he begs the queen, the queen will also intercede with her brother.

Yuan Shanjian cautiously glanced at Yuan Hui on the ground, "But with Sun Taibao." He spoke very softly.

When the day dawned, many people gathered in the open space outside the Taiji Hall, but it was so silent as if no one was there.

In the early morning of summer, when the sky is just bright, it is slightly cool. Soon after the night passed, the sun seemed dim and weak.

Emperor Yuan Shanjian of the Great Wei Dynasty was escorted back to the palace by Taibao Sun Teng. He saw the tall and majestic Taiji Hall far away, high, as if he could no longer reach it. Remembering that he was also sitting high on the Taiji Hall, he might never have the opportunity again in the future. Since Gao Yang dared to use swords in the palace, he would definitely not leave him a way back, and Yuan Shanjian regretted it. His heart was filled with despair and fear. The most unwilling thing was when he saw Gao Yang.

This idiot didn't die, he wasn't poisoned by poisoned wine. This kind of conspiracy to usurp the throne was actually done by Gao Yang, not Gao Cheng. Even Yuan Shan couldn't believe it when he saw it. But there was no chance of starting over.

Yuan Shanjian had already seen Gao Yang standing on the long jade steps outside the Taiji Hall. Now he is on top.

Yuan Shanjian knew that Sun Teng was behind him, and he had no choice but to walk up the jade steps with heavy steps.

Lin Xingren saw that the inconspicuous Yuan clan members gathered in front of the hall all looked up at the emperor with a shrunken look. He noticed that there was no Gaoyang Wang Yuanyong, who Yuan Hui said before he died, that he was too sick to stay. Is he really sick?

Regardless of whether the Manchu courtiers were Gao henchmen or not, none of them said a word, and they all watched quietly.

Yuan Shanjian finally walked under the eaves outside the hall and looked at Gao Yang embarrassedly.

Gao Yang is still crowned, his clothes and shoes are not so neat, but his eyes are extremely sharp and cold, as if he can pierce people through the heart with a sword.

"Your Majesty, don't delay the hour, the auspicious time is coming, and the prince and queen are waiting in the palace." Gao Yang's tone was a little impatient and a little anxious. He had already seen Yuan Shanjian move up step by step, and he had long been eager to go down in person, walked to Yuan Shanjian's side and kicked him into the Taiji Hall.

Yecheng experienced another sunrise and sunset.

Gao Yuanjun gave birth to the infant prince, who actually became the new emperor of Great Wei, and Yuan Shanjian was respected as the emperor of Taishang.

At this time, Gao Yuanjun, who had become the queen of the Taishang Dynasty, was actually still soft-hearted. Although he hated his husband for taking advantage of his son, because he knew that his situation was difficult, he secretly pleaded with his brother Gao Yang for him.

What is particularly puzzling is that Gao Yang happily agreed to his sister's request and allowed Emperor Taishang Yuan Shanjian to still live in Renshou Palace, and all services and supplies are preferential.

Gao Cheng, the king of Bohai and the prime minister of Yuzhou, who did not rush back to Yecheng, was respected as the king of Qi and given the title of prime minister by the little emperor who had just ascended to the pole.

Naturally, Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang was named the King of Bohai, the Great Prime Minister, the Central Book Supervisor, the Shang Shu Ling, and the Governor of Gyeonggi. And the new "Gao Wang" was trusted by Empress Taishang and became the new auxiliary minister.
