Compared with the fiasco of Zhao Xuan at the gate of the palace who cleaned up Jiang Wu ruthlessly, in Yonghe Palace, Jiang Shi did not show his thin eyebrows, and the two faces of Zhao Xuan and Zhao Qi, Emperor Showa, kept appearing in front of him.

Zhuo Lang slowly moved out of the apse, just in time to see Jiang's headache rubbing his eyebrows, and laughed: "I didn't expect that the dignified Empress Wei also had a headache, how about it?" was bitten by a little wolf cub raised by himself, this should not be very pleasant. ”

Jiang knew who the little wolf cub Zhuo Lang was referring to was, so he closed his eyes fiercely, with a fierce color between his eyebrows, and said: "After all, it is not his own birth, and there is always a gap between mother and son; In the past, that kid didn't dare to play these tricks in front of Bengong, but he didn't expect that today, he would dare. ”

Zhuo Lang looked at his white and slender fingers, as if caressing the most famous painting in the world, and said: "He doesn't dare, he has always suppressed his own nature, this is his true temperament." Queen Mother, you have to be careful, don't go to the end, not in the hands of King Ling, but in the hands of the wolf cubs raised by yourself, then you will really suffer a big loss and be unwilling. ”

"How can this palace not know how to guard against him, but Zhao Xuan has been married for more than two years, and he has not been able to give birth to an heir, and this palace also knows that the small one is more obedient and honest than the big one, but the problem is that now this big one has no small one that can be cultivated in this palace, right?"

Seeing that Jiang was obviously a little angry, Zhuo Lang endured the sneer in his heart and said, "The queen mother is wise and has means, why did she make a mistake in this matter?" King Xuan is not your biological son, do you really expect him to give birth to a grandchild for you? If you want me to say, as long as it is the Zhao family's species, you can just take one and raise it, how can there be so many calculations at all. ”

Jiang Shi looked at Zhuo Lang who said such a paragraph in surprise: "Your consciousness is, let this palace go to hug the children of other princes?" How can this be, in this case, will not my foundation be in chaos? ”

"It's good if it's messy, only when it's messy, Zhao Xuan doesn't have the energy to deal with the Jiang family, and the Jiang family can grow stronger and stronger in the cracks, so strong that even the power of the emperor can't shake it."

Although Jiang is eager for quick success, he is not a person who allows others to instigate and listen to others' opinions at will.

Seeing the ill-will on Zhuo Lang's face, she immediately became angry: "Bastard, you dare to say such a rebellious thing in front of this palace, what do you want to do if you try to shake the foundation of my dynasty?!" ”

Looking at the angry Jiang family, Zhuo Lang was much calmer: "Isn't the queen thinking like this in her heart?" Didn't King Xuan's performance just now surprise you? When Emperor Showa was still in power, although he gave you a lot of preferential treatment to the Jiang family, how much of this preferential treatment was not clear to others, and the queen mother would not know? Emperor Showa was a clumsy emperor on the surface, but over the years under his governance, the Great Wei border soldiers were strong and strong, and there were handsome talents like Hou Chuyi in Jingbei. Even your Jiang family, doesn't it look like it is beautiful, but in fact it is difficult both internally and externally, otherwise you wouldn't be in such a hurry to succeed other princes under your knees. Queen Mother, you just admit it, in fact, you are very afraid, afraid that after Zhao Xuan ascends the throne as emperor, he will become the second Showa Emperor, or he may be even more ruthless than Emperor Showa. ”

Jiang's entire face was pale, especially when he saw Zhuo Lang's beast-like eyes, he felt even more frightened.

She didn't expect that her hidden worries would be clearly seen by this person, and she pointed them out unceremoniously in front of her; No wonder this person would make Zhao Ling want to eradicate it so hard, it was really terrible to have such a person as an opponent.

Jiang Shi swallowed her saliva fiercely, even if her mind was shaken at the moment, but deep in her heart there was a rock that did not move at all, and that rock was her bottom line.

She looked at Zhuo Lang with burning eyes, and there was a sonorous voice in her voice: "Even if this palace is afraid that Xuan'er will become the second Showa Emperor in the future, even if my Jiang family cannot become a first-class family of the Great Wei Dynasty, I will not do anything to shake the country's foundation; Zhuo Lang, do you really think that this palace is that kind of ignorant woman? If the foundation of Great Wei is shaken, how far will my Great Wei be from destroying the country? When the time comes, what about becoming the first family? What about the power tilting towards the opposition? If you become a slave of the country, you are nothing. ”

Zhuo Lang glanced at Jiang in surprise: "I didn't expect the queen's occasional words and deeds to be quite amazing." ”

Jiang Shi let out a cold sneer: "Yes, if you are not fooled, you will naturally be amazed; Zhuo Lang, I don't need you to interfere in the affairs of my Great Wei, you just need to do your part, and it is better not to take care of other things, otherwise, this palace will be regarded as your self-destruction of the covenant. ”

After saying these words of warning to Zhuo Lang, Jiang walked in the direction of the apse, but when she was about to enter the apse, Zhuo Lang's voice came.

"The old man will remember the reminder of the queen's mother, but the old man also reminded the mother that the wolf can't be circled anymore when it is raised, otherwise, you have to be careful that this little wolf cub will bite."

Jiang's gloomy eyes flickered a few times, and finally after making a mean pursed lip movement, he walked into the apse, leaving Zhuo Lang alone in the front hall and letting him play with right and wrong.

At this moment, in the Xiwang Mansion, after receiving the news of Emperor Showa's death, all the people who came fell into silence.

In the huge study, there were people who were loyal to Zhao Ling sitting everywhere, but no one stood up to say a word at this time, everyone had a heavy and depressed atmosphere, and it seemed that even the air had been affected, and they were about to be frozen by the current atmosphere.

In the end, Zhao Heng couldn't help it and opened his mouth: "Is my father leaving like this?" When I returned to Beijing this time, I hadn't had a good meal with him; Last time, I wrote a recital to him, saying that the lotus pond in my fief is more beautiful than the lotus pond on Luli Mountain, and invited my father to come and see if he has the opportunity, but my father was angry with me, saying that even if I was thrown into the fiefdom, I only knew how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and I didn't want to make progress. In fact, when I returned to Beijing this time, I wanted to tell my father that I had learned to deal with the government affairs of the fiefdom, and that the palace had invited really talented staff, and I would occasionally go to the fields to work with the people; I've been trying to change, hoping to become a proud son like several royal brothers, but I haven't had time to say these words to my father, why did my father leave first? Seventh brother, you say, why is my father willing to leave us behind? ”

Listening to Zhao Heng's babbling words, looking at his eyes that were red from sadness, Zhao Xi did not reprimand Zhao Heng for the first time, but stretched out his hand, grabbed his trembling shoulders tightly, and said, "Xiao Jiu, if my father knew that you had done so many things in the fiefdom, he would definitely be very pleased; You're right, my father is reluctant to us, he likes to watch us play around him the most, he is reluctant to leave us, some people feel that their father is in their way, so they use means to eradicate their father. ”

"Jiang Qiang! There are also the wolf hearts and lungs of the Jiang family, it is them, the father and emperor they killed. ”

Zhao Heng suddenly broke out, jumped up and slammed the inkstone on Zhao Xi's desk to the ground, his eyes were split, and his eyes were full of hatred: "Lao Tzu wants to break the Jiang family's corpses into ten thousand pieces." ”

Zhao Xi hurriedly hugged the angry Zhao Heng, and at the same time raised his voice and shouted in his ear: "I know that you are very angry now, and I know that you can't rush up and give the Jiang family's people a sword now; But Xiao Jiu, my father has died, why did he die, everyone present knows that if we rush over to make trouble at this time, do you think we will win? What we need now is calm, we can't let our father be killed by them in vain, the more they are afraid of something, the more we have to poke our strength into their pain; In this way, it can be regarded as revenge for the emperor, do you understand? ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness King Xi's words are exactly the key point."

Li Ze, the prince of Zhenguo, stood up at this time and said: "The emperor's death is already an irreparable fact, and now this news is still being pressed by those people, I am afraid that it is to suddenly announce this news in the morning tomorrow, and at the same time, they will definitely do their best to promote the eldest prince Zhao Xuan to the throne at that time." ”

Zhao Heng stared at Li Ze with reddened eyes: "You say, Brother Wang, does he know that his father's death is related to Jiang Qiang and them?" ”

Li Ze didn't dare to say anything affirmative, but he also said what everyone wanted to say in their hearts: "The eldest prince is the queen's righteous son, and the queen has high hopes for him, if the eldest prince ascends the throne, the biggest beneficiary will be the Jiang family, and as the most important person in the queen's plan, he should know very well what the Jiang family has been doing recently and what is happening around him." ”

"You mean, Brother Wang, he knows? But since he knew, he didn't stand up to stop it? And, still watching things happen? ”

Zhao Heng couldn't help laughing, and big tears flowed out of the corners of his eyes: "From childhood to adulthood, my father's favorite thing is Brother Wang, and Brother Wang's handwriting is most like that of his father, that's because when he learned to write, it was his father who held his hand and taught him one by one; His archery skills were also taught by his father, and these honors were never enjoyed by my brothers and I. I really didn't expect that my father's most beloved son was the one with the most wolf's heart, he really deserved to die! He's damned! ”

Zhao Xi patted Zhao Heng's back, hoping that doing so would calm him down.

"It doesn't matter if the eldest brother knows what the Jiang family did to his father, but there is one thing, we just need to know."

Zhao Xi's eyes lit up, "That is, tomorrow must not let the eldest brother succeed in ascending the throne." ”
