The time of the early dynasty of the Northern Song Dynasty was generally Mao, that is, around six o'clock, so later generations were a bit Mao and should be Mao.

Outside the palace and the imperial hall, the hundred officials of the imperial court who were waiting in the cold wind in advance all felt a little uneasy, even Zhang Shixun, and his heart was also up and down.

Just now, the people of the Zhao family's clan, who had not come forward for such a big thing as the Queen Mother's return to heaven, finally showed up today, and as soon as they appeared, there was a large group, basically all the clans in Bianjing came, and under the leadership of Zhao Yuanyan, the king of the town, they waited in front of the hundred officials with solemn expressions.

Among the hundreds of officials, Ouyang Xiu looked at Zhao Yuanyan coldly, thinking in his heart that if this town king made a move, those people would be able to get benefits, and those people would be implicated because of this.

After thinking about it for a while, Ouyang Xiu sighed in his heart, he knew that others might be fine, but when they were the princes of the official family, Zhang Shixun, the prince, and the teacher, the prince Yan Shu, were going to be unlucky.

Zhang Shixun and Yan Shu are the closest people to Zhao Zhen, and they have followed Zhao Zhen for more than ten years, if others succumb to the queen mother's obscenity and do not tell the official family about the biological mother of the official family, there is still reason, but Zhang Shixun and Yan Shu don't say it, this is worth speculating, and at this time, they were preempted by Zhao Yuanyan, the king of the town, and the two of them may not be able to return to Bianjing for the rest of their lives.

Ouyang Xiu knew what Yan Shu and Zhang Shixun were thinking, and both of them thought that if Zhao Zhen knew about his biological mother, he would definitely clash with Empress Dowager Liu, and it would affect the entire Great Song Dynasty, but they didn't think that as Zhao Zhen's two most trusted courtiers, hiding such an important matter from Zhao Zhen would cause much anger in the official family!

"The official family is in court! Hundreds of officials are here! The elongated voice of the chamberlain remembered that Zhao Yuanyan, who was at the front of the hundred officials, sorted out his clothes, and strode into the Imperial Hall with the Zhao family clan behind him.

On the dragon chair of the Imperial Palace, Zhao Zhen sat there drowsily, in the morning at six o'clock in the morning, except for those diligent Ming Jun, few people could hold on, and Zhao Zhen, of course, was not in the list of diligent Ming Jun, he was a peerless benevolent monarch through the ages.

"There is a book, but there is no book!" Yan Wenying stretched his tone and said loudly, last night the official family played a night with Shang Meiren, and his spirit was very bad, he very much hoped that the civil and military officials below would have better eyes, and if they saw that the official family was not in good spirits, they would not look for trouble.

But things backfired, Yan Wenying's voice just fell, and Zhao Yuanyan, the town king who had been preparing for a long time, came out and said loudly: "Qiqi official's family!" Wechen has this start! ”

Zhao Yuanyan, the king of the town, is already fifty years younger, but he has health skills, he looks like a middle-aged man in his thirties, mature and chic, majestic and steady, and also inherits the excellent bloodline of the Zhao family, looks personable, and is also a famous beautiful man in Bianjing.

Hearing Zhao Yuanyan's voice, Zhao Zhen immediately woke up a lot, and wondered in his heart, why did this imperial uncle, who had not been to the court for a long time, come over today.

"It turned out to be Uncle Huang! I didn't expect that Uncle Huang would be free to come to the Imperial Palace today, what did Uncle Huang do? Zhao Zhen said to Zhao Yuanyan.

Zhao Yuanyan looked solemn and said solemnly: "Qiqi official family! Wechen came to do his filial piety for the official family! ”

"Filial piety! Did there go wrong with the Queen Mother's funeral? Zhao Zhen turned his head to Yan Wenying suspiciously.

Yan Wenying was shocked in his heart, knowing that Zhao Yuanyan had finally told that secret thing.

"Enlighten the official family! Wei Chen said that it is not filial piety to the Queen Mother, but filial piety to Concubine Li Chen! Zhao Yuanyan said solemnly.

"Concubine Li Chen!" Zhao Zhen was confused for a while, and suddenly thought of the concubine Zhenzong who died two months earlier than the Queen Mother, and asked strangely: "Uncle Huang!" Concubine Li Chen has not been buried for many days, what filial piety do you have to do! Uncle Huang said laugh! ”

"Enlighten the official family! It's not that Weichen is joking, the biological mother of the official family is not the Queen Mother, but Concubine Li Chen, who has returned to heaven, everyone knows about this matter, but the official family doesn't know, I don't know if the official family should be filial to Concubine Li Chen! Zhao Yuanyan said in a deep voice slowly.

"What!" Hearing Zhao Yuanyan's words, Zhao Zhen's drowsiness was swept away, and he immediately looked at Zhao Yuanyan in shock, seeing Zhao Yuanyan's face was upright, and the hundred officials did not dare to argue, Zhao Zhen immediately understood that this matter might be true.

"Taifu! What the town king said, but it's true! Zhao Zhen was shocked, and he had already begun to believe Zhao Yuanyan's words in his heart, and weakly turned his head to ask Zhang Shixun, the prime minister at the front of the hundred officials.

At this time, the smart Zhang Shixun, Yan Shu and others all understood that their time in Bianjing was running out.

"Enlighten the official family! The words of the town king are all true! The old Zhang Shixun, with all the strength of his body, said slowly.

"Poof!" The official Zhao Zhen spurted blood all over the sky, attacked his heart in anger, his blood churned, and he fainted.

"Doctor Legend! Hurry up and pass on the doctor! ”

In the court, there was chaos, and everyone shouted in panic.

………………………………

Zhao Zhen's biological mother is indeed Concubine Li Chen, she was originally from Hangzhou, and after entering the palace, she became the maid of the Empress Dowager Liu, who was cautious and cautious, and won the favor of the Empress Dowager.

It was also a coincidence that Zhenzong was lucky enough to give birth to Zhao Zhen.

Empress Dowager Liu had no children, and Zhao Zhen was still in infancy, so she took her to Concubine Yang Shu to raise.

Although Concubine Li Chen has the name of Concubine Chen because of her son, she is forever deprived of the rights of her parents and children, and she is not even allowed to say it. Inside and outside the palace, because of the fear of the queen mother's obscenity, no one dared to pierce this layer of window paper.

The secret has been hidden for more than 20 years! Later, the so-called story of the tanuki changing the prince in the drama was made up from such a little shadow.

The secret of more than 20 years was directly revealed by Zhao Yuanyan today, and Zhao Zhen couldn't accept this blow for a while, and was directly dizzy.

Several doctors with advanced medical skills from the Taiyi Bureau came in a hurry, pinching people again, and pricking gold needles, and after a while, Zhao Zhen was saved.

Zhao Zhen, the official who woke up, was in pain and cried loudly.

"The official family mourns!" Yan Wenying cursed Zhao Yuanyan beside him while persuading Zhao Zhen, while the other civil and military officials all pulled their heads, not knowing what they were thinking.

At this time, a Empress Dowager Liu was demoted out of Bianjing, and a bachelor who had just come back stood up and said to Zhao Zhen: "Qiqi official family!" As far as Wei Chen knows, Concubine Li Chen did not die of illness, but Empress Dowager Liu felt that the limit was too big and poisoned Concubine Li Chen! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhen immediately stopped crying, and Long Yan said angrily: "What! There is such a thing, immediately open the coffin for me for an autopsy, if it is really the Empress Dowager Liu who was poisoned, I will copy the Liu family! ”

The Liu family in Zhao Zhen's mouth is Gong Mei, the former husband of the Empress Dowager Liu, after Gong Mei dedicated the Empress Dowager Liu to Zhenzong, she was commensurate with the Empress Dowager Liu's brothers and sisters, and now the Liu family is already a famous family in the imperial court.

Zhao Zhen's words, no one dared to refute them, at this time, they were all tired of talking to Empress Dowager Liu, and there was no one who was tired of living among the hundred officials, so they all stood there and didn't dare to say anything.

Under Zhao Zhen's anger, the results of the open coffin autopsy soon came out, Concubine Li Chen's body was wrapped in mercury, lifelike, and there was no such thing as poisoning and death.

The official who framed the Empress Dowager Liu was unlucky again, and soon after returning to Bianjing, he was demoted, and he was directly demoted from a fourth-grade member to an eight-grade county, and it is estimated that the future of the government has ended ahead of schedule.

"Enlighten the official family! Concubine Li Chen not only died of poisoning, but also was buried according to the specifications of the queen! The official who opened the coffin for the autopsy said to Zhao Zhen cautiously.

"Official! When Concubine Li Chen died of illness, Empress Dowager Liu originally wanted to be buried hastily, but Lord Lu Yijian and Master Lu strongly objected, and almost turned her face with Empress Dowager Liu, and finally persuaded Empress Dowager Liu to bury Concubine Li Chen according to the queen's specifications and fill it with mercury! At this time, Yan Wen should have started to help Lu Yijian say good things.

"Lu Yijian!" Zhao Zhen muttered this name, and then looked at Zhang Shixun and Yan Shu, who had the closest relationship with him and the most loyal among the hundred officials of the imperial court, snorted coldly and retreated.

………………………………

Concubine Li Chen's biological mother turmoil ended like this, Zhang Shixun, Yan Shu and others were demoted one after another, Fan Zhongyan was recalled to Bianjing, and Ouyang Xiushou was a scholar.

And in this turmoil, there are only two people who benefit, the first is Zhao Yuanyan, the town king who took the lead.

Zhao Yuanyan, the king of the town, after this turmoil, was named King Meng, worshiped the Taishi, Wucheng Jiedu envoy, Jing Zhaoyin, gave praise and worshiped the nameless, and gave the edict nameless.

Zhao Yuanyan reached the peak of the clan for a while, although he did not have much power, but his status was even higher than that of the prime minister.

The second person to benefit is Lu Yijian, who demoted Bianjing.

Lu Yijian had just been demoted from Bianjing, and before he took office, he was chased back by Zhao Zhen's fast horse, and because of his meritorious efforts to persuade the Empress Dowager Liu, he paid homage to the prime minister again, and became another prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Lu Yijian worshiped the prime minister, of course Zhao Zhen knew that this Lu Yijian was a cunning two-headed grass, although it could be reused, but it was necessary to guard against it, so he promoted his henchmen Song Shou and Cai Qi to participate in political affairs, while Wang Shu changed to the Privy Council, and Wang Deyong was demoted to the deputy privy envoy.

After the death of Concubine Li Chen, she was posthumously named the Empress Dowager of Zhuangyi by the official Zhao Zhen, and the mausoleum of Zhenzong, and the Empress Dowager Liu's lover brother Liu Mei's family was also taken care of by Zhao Zhen, and all of them were demoted from important positions to idle positions, and gradually declined in the prosperous Bianjing.

Yan Shu left in the bustling Bianjing, "helpless flowers fall, déjà vu Yan returns, Xiaoyuan Xiangjing wanders alone", out of Bianjing, persuaded Luzhou, and did not set foot in Bianjing officialdom in his life.

Empress Dowager Liu's influence in the imperial court, because of the two court changes, completely disappeared, Zhao Zhen finally took control of the government and began a real emperor career.
