Shangyang Palace. "Top" point "Small" said,

It can be said that Shangyang Palace integrates the essence of the architecture of the past dynasties, whether it is conceived or built, it is not found in the past dynasties. Therefore, Gaozong Li Zhi once lingered in the Shendu, a big reason is because of the palace of Shangyang Palace, which is like a fairyland.

The empress lives in the Hall of Eternal Life, and to get to the Hall of Eternal Life, you must first pass through the Yingxian Temple. Wu Chu had been to Shangyang Palace in his early years, and he was quite familiar with Shangyang Palace, so he led the way first and went straight to Yingxian Temple.

There are many corridors in Shangyang Palace, so it is easy to go forks, and it is easy to ambush knives and axes on both sides of the corridor. Wu Zheng has his own personal guards on his side, but he is still very cautious, although Er Zhang is arrogant and ignorant, but he also has to beware of his whims ambushing soldiers.

Sure enough, when Wu Chu led the troops to the corridor outside the Yingxian Courtyard, arrows suddenly burst out from both sides. The guards immediately raised their shields to block the arrows.

Wu Chu squinted slightly, and said: "Disorganized archery skills, vulnerable, He Axiao, give me a quick annihilation!" ”

He Axiao's eyes flashed, and he immediately bowed down in agreement, leading the elite soldiers around the corridor and running to the dark place. But for a moment, only a burst of screams was heard, and then there was no sound.

Seeing the torch shaking in the Yingxian Courtyard in front of him, Wu Chu knew that the ambush had been lifted, and with a wave of his hand, he led the soldiers to rush to the Yingxian Courtyard.

Yingxian Temple.

He A Xiaoming soldiers escorted two men, under the light of the torches, the very handsome faces of the two very young men, there was only a look of horror, they saw Wu Chu, one of them shouted: "Wu Chu, the Holy Lord is not thin with you?" You're going to rebel? ”

Wu Chu saw that the person was Zhang Yizhi, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes. But he said slowly: "Zhang Yizhi, I am the prince of the Great Zhou. Why do you come to rebel, you two charm the Holy Monarch. Misleading the public, defiling the palace, selling official porridge, and forcibly buying land...... In short, it's not a pity for you two to die......"

Immediately, Wu Chuan made a decapitation action. He Axiao understood, immediately plugged the two mouths, and put them down......

Wu Zheng looked at the Hall of Eternal Life behind the Yingxian Courtyard for a moment. Turning to look at the black-toothed Changzhi and the others, he said: "Generals, tonight I will wait for the 'Qingjun side', the big thing is not over, you need to make persistent efforts, the generals must be cautious and careful, catch the thief party, there must be no mistake!" ”

The generals immediately bowed down and took the command.

Wu Zheng looked at Yao Yuanchong and the others beside him. said: "Yao Yuanchong, Ji Xuan, Tang Xiujing, the three of you go with this king to meet the saint!" ”

Yao Yuanchong and the other three immediately bowed down and said, "The ministers are willing to follow His Highness to the death!" ”

Wu Chu nodded, and then took the three of them, and nearly a hundred guards followed behind him.

No more than a few hundred steps. came to the front of the Hall of Eternal Life, and the guards in front of the Hall of Eternal Life saw Wu Chu and the others, so they threw away their weapons early. Kneel beside the road.

When Wu Shu approached, he said, "Spare you from dying." Stand down! ”

The guards at the gate then bowed their heads and bowed back.

Wu Zheng said, "Let's go in." ”

Forthwith. Wu Chu stretched out his hand and pushed the vermilion door of the Hall of Eternal Life, the door of the Hall of Eternal Life slowly opened, and a stream of sandalwood came to her face, the empress likes incense, so wherever she lives, she will light a stove.

In the flickering candlelight, through several curtains, Wu Zheng saw the empress lying quietly on the dragon couch, he was a little hesitant, and he didn't know if the empress woke up. Yao Yuanchong and the other three did not dare to be presumptuous, and they all looked at Wu Zheng. For a while, the hall was silent.

After a while, only the empress's voice could be heard, and she said slowly, "Why is the prince here?" ”

Wu Chu immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Erchen has to come." ”

The empress was slowly helped up by the palace maid, leaned back on the head of the bed, and said, "Oh? So tell me about it? ”

Wu Chu was silent for a moment, and said: "Erchen went out to Hebei, defeated miserably in Huangzhang Valley, someone plotted to kill Erchen, Erchen intercepted a second letter, and learned that it was Erzhang who arranged eyeliner in the army and reported to the Khitan, Su Honghui and other veterans will also plan and abandon Erchen, if it weren't for Erchen's previous plan...... I'm afraid that what the saint got today is the corpse of his son. ”

Wu Zheng's words are both false and true, but such information is obviously not expected by the empress and the three prime ministers. But the empress didn't believe just one side of the story, so she said, "Call me Gorou and Rokuro!" ”

Yao Yuanchong knew that this was the time for these prime ministers to come out to resist His Highness, so he bowed down and said: "Holy Lord, the crimes of Erzhang are too numerous to write, tonight's 'Qingjun side', Erzhang has already been beheaded!" ”

"What?" The Empress exclaimed.

"Hahaha......"

The empress let out an angry laugh, and the laughter was full of anger, but also full of helplessness, full of pain. She never thought that someone would dare to rebel against her, she never thought that the ministers would treat her like this, and she never thought that the prince she set up would be 'Qingjun'!

"Qingjun's side? What do you want to do? Prince? Do you want to usurp the throne? The empress suddenly got up and stared at Wu Zheng beyond the several gauze tents.

Wu Chu kowtowed and said: "The mother emperor is angry, the sons don't dare, what the sons said is true, as far as the sons know, the officials sold by the two are as many as millions." This alone is enough to die a hundred times. It's just that the mother emperor favors Erzhang, which makes him even more unscrupulous, presumably the mother doesn't know that when the mother is asleep, Erzhang has already controlled the palace and proclaimed himself the emperor. ”

The empress was stunned for a moment, she was extremely awake at this moment, and then remembered the incident some time ago, although she was suspicious of Erzhang, but she had more sleep time than waking time, and she never asked.

However, the empress didn't believe it and said: "The palace has its own chamberlain, as well as Shangguan Wan'er and Wei Tuan'er, how can the two of them control it?" ”

Ji Xuan kowtowed and said: "Holy Lord, Shangguan Wan'er has not been in the palace for a few months, and Wei Fengyu has also arranged the Shangshi Bureau in the name of the Holy Decree, and the will to Fengge is conveyed by Fengchen Mansion. ”

The empress was startled, and then vaguely remembered what Er Zhang said about changing the control of the Crane Prison to Fengchen Mansion, and suddenly, she understood that Er Zhang was so blatant that she could issue a holy decree at will, she felt a little tired, and said slowly: "Since Er Zhang is dead, let's die, since the emperor has come back safely, then preside over the government and handle state affairs." I'm tired, stand down. ”

Wu Chu wanted to go further, but he still held back, people are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, the empress's kindness, he can't finish it, let alone force him to abdicate.

Yao Yuanchong wanted to say something, but after seeing Wu Zheng's face, he finally swallowed it in his stomach.

"The mother queen rests, the child retires!" Wu Chuan kowtowed and withdrew.

After waiting out of the Hall of Eternal Life, Ji Ji bowed and said, "Your Highness, you are willing to ask Your Highness to take the throne of the emperor!" ”

Wu Chu shook his head and said, "The Holy One is alive, this king dares to do this, you don't want to mention it again!" "He is also very depressed, you didn't go to the table just now, and when you went out of the hall, you said that these are a fart!

Ji Ji knew that he was not doing well, so he bowed and stepped aside.

Wu Shu looked at the night sky, in the starlight, he seemed to see a meteor passing by, he closed his eyes, and said: "Two crimes, tell the world." The Zhang family, as well as their henchmen, will be handed over to the Suzheng Tai for trial. He paused and said, "This king is tired, and the dynasty will be suspended tomorrow, and Yuan Chong can notify the hundred officials." ”

Yao Yuanchong immediately bowed down and agreed.

At this time, Guo Zhiyun came towards Yingxian Temple, saw Wu Zheng, bowed down and said, "I have seen Your Highness!" ”

Wu Shu nodded and said, "The matter of capturing the two henchmen will be handed over to you!" ”

At this time, Yang Zhiqian also came to Wu Zhiqian's side, and Wu Zhi said to Yang Zhiqian: "You assist Zhiyun!" ”

Yang Zhiqian couldn't wait to have something to do, so he bowed down and thanked him for agreeing.

Next, Wu Chuan arranged some aftermath, and after the ministers and generals left one by one, Wu Zong led the guards out of the Yingxian Courtyard and walked out of Shangyang Palace...... (To be continued......)
