Zhou Yanran clutched the Inheritance Decree in her hand tightly, and the force used on her fingers was so great that she was about to crush the white jade on the shaft.

Just when Zhou Yanran finally retracted her mind and carefully hid the holy decree with her, she turned around and was about to walk to Emperor Showa who fell to the ground, but after seeing the empty hall, her face was snow-white on the spot, and her legs seemed to be drained of all her strength in an instant, and she fell to the ground with a pop.

She felt that she must have hallucinated, otherwise why did Emperor Showa, who was lying on the ground stunned and unable to move just now, disappear in the blink of an eye?

She covered her mouth hard, controlled herself from screaming out of fear, supported her almost limp body, and walked around the hall in a panic, until she was about to rummage through the entire Tai'an Palace and didn't find any trace of Emperor Showa, she stumbled out of the side door with a white face.

The personal palace people who were waiting outside saw Zhou Yanran running out as if she was pretending to be a ghost, and hurriedly came up to support her, but before others could ask, Zhou Yanran grabbed the palace people's clothes hard, and shouted in a panicked and dry voice: "Hurry up!" Let's go! ”

It was the first time for the palace people to see Zhou Yanran showing such a panicked expression, knowing that now was not a good time to ask, so they hurriedly helped her onto the soft sedan chair, beckoned the group to leave Tai'an Palace quickly, and hurriedly rushed in the direction of Qiwei Palace.

Zhou Yanran sat in the soft sedan chair, almost soaked with cold sweat from top to bottom.

She could be sure that she was absolutely not mistaken.

Obviously, before she found the holy decree of succession, she also got the sachet from Emperor Showa and found the key, but why did Emperor Showa who was originally lying on the ground disappear after she turned around?

It was definitely not the Jiang family's people who took him away, if it was the Jiang family's people, seeing her here, she would not have escaped from Tai'an Palace; But since it's not Jiang's, who could it be?

Who can take away the 'remains' of the Son of Heaven?

The more Zhou Yanran thought about it, the more frightened she became, and in the end, she simply curled up in the soft sedan chair, covering her ears and eyes with both hands, as if only by doing so could she find a little sense of security.

As for the Jiang family, after walking out of the Tai'an Palace, he swept away the previous weakness and weakness in the palace, and once again became the master of the six palaces who controlled the power in front of the world.

looked at the people walking towards her, and their eyes swept over the faces of the cronies who participated in this palace change in turn.

The voice was cold, and he explained sharply: "From now on, it is said that the emperor is in poor health and needs to recuperate with peace of mind, and no one can easily approach Tai'an Palace without the decree of this palace." ”

Jiang Huai, the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, is the nephew of the Jiang family, he knows best what the Jiang family is going to do, recently the father and uncle of the family often go in and out of the palace, and he is on an errand in the palace, of course, I know that the sky in this capital is about to change.

As a member of the Jiang family, he naturally wants to take the interests of his family as the highest priority, so after hearing Jiang's words, he understands that Jiang has succeeded, and then, as long as everything goes according to plan, in less than three days, the eldest prince Zhao Xuan will be able to ascend the throne successfully.

At that time, their Jiang family was in Great Wei, and no one could shake it.

Thinking that the Jiang family would have a splash of wealth and power waiting for them next, Jiang Huai felt that his whole body was full of energy, walked up to the Jiang family's side, and whispered in a low voice: "Auntie, the nephew of the Imperial Forest Army will take care of you, please rest assured, the whole Tai'an Palace has been arranged by the nephew, and no one can easily break in alone." ”

Jiang knew that now their situation was already ready to be attacked, and every step they took now had to be cautious.

Looking at Jiang Huai's still very young face, Jiang Shi solemnly admonished: "The Imperial Forest Army is a trump card in the emperor's hand, although the emperor has been taken down by the palace now, but it is not difficult to guarantee that these minions loyal to the Son of Heaven will do something at the last moment; So you have to be cautious, especially Xiao Gang, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, this person is stupid and loyal to Emperor Showa, you must be careful to guard against him, if you find that he has any changes, you would rather kill him, and you must not let it go, understand? ”

Jiang Huai relied on his family relationship to become the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and he had long thought about the position of the commander.

However, Xiao Gang is a person with real skills, and his outstanding martial arts are even more difficult to meet opponents in Great Wei, plus he has a high prestige in the Imperial Forest Army, so even if he wants to replace Xiao Gang, it has always been difficult to find an opportunity.

Right now, hearing Jiang say this, Jiang Huai felt like he had grabbed a treasure knife handed over by someone else, and he could kill Xiao Gang and replace him at any time.

You must know that although the position of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army is only a military position from the second rank, there are 10,000 Imperial Forest Army sitting in the palace, and anyone who walks around the palace must see if the commander is willing to give it a convenience; Therefore, even if it is an official position of the second grade, it still holds real power.

As long as the thought of being able to replace Xiao Gang and get the position of his dreams, Jiang Huai felt that the blood in his body was boiling, and he immediately clenched his fists and expressed his loyalty to the Jiang family: "Auntie, please rest assured, my nephew knows what to do." ”

Looking at Jiang Huai's ambitious eyes, Jiang's face showed a touch of appreciation; sighed in his heart, this is the true nature of a man, a man who does not fight or rob is a bad breed; And the boy of her Jiang family will definitely not become the kind of soft egg who can't be on the stage.

Jiang sat on the phoenix and returned straight to Yonghe Palace.

In the Yonghe Palace, the Jiang family, who had already received the news to participate in the palace change, was already waiting in the palace, and when they saw the Jiang family coming back from outside with a tense face, they all greeted them.

Jiang Wu is now the head of the Jiang family, and he is the person who was personally supported by the Jiang family, so after seeing the Jiang family coming back from outside, he was the first to come up and ask, "How is it?" Is it done? ”

Jiang sat back on the phoenix chair, picked up a cup of tea that had already been cooled, and drank: "It's done." ”

When the two words came lightly, the dull atmosphere in the hall immediately turned into enthusiasm.

You must know that what they are doing now is not an ordinary thing, once they succeed, endless glory and wealth will flock to them, and in the whole plan, killing the king is the most difficult thing to do.

For this purpose, these people made all kinds of plans almost day and night, in order to be able to do it without omission; At present, the killing of the monarch has been completed, which is equivalent to most of the success of the plan; Now, as long as the queen mother announces the death of the emperor as the lord of the six palaces and the succession of King Yingxuan to the throne in the court the day after tomorrow, their plan will be considered a complete success.

As long as they thought that the Jiang Mansion would be an irreplaceable existence from now on, the Jiang family members present couldn't help but boil their blood, and they couldn't wait to look up to the sky and laugh twice.

Zhuo Lang, who had been sitting on the side, was quite calm, looking at Jiang Shi with a tense face, he raised his voice hoarsely, and asked, "Did you really kill him?" ”

Jiang Wu didn't know Zhuo Lang's true identity, and when he suddenly heard him questioning Jiang so unceremoniously, he was a little dissatisfied at the moment: "Sir, since the queen mother said that it has been done, it will never go wrong, how can you doubt the queen at this time?" ”

Zhuo Lang looked at Jiang Wu with a smile, but said to Jiang Qiang: "The old man is just curious, since the queen mother has really succeeded, why is her face still so nervous?" Like, there's something to hide. ”

When Jiang Wu and the other Jiang family members heard Zhuo Lang's words, they all subconsciously looked towards the Jiang family; At this glance, I was really surprised, but no, the queen's face was indeed a little wrong; There is no obvious grief, and there is not the slightest joy, which makes people very guessable.

"Niangniang, do you have anything left unfinished?"

Jiang Shi looked at the shrewd Zhuo Lang, put down the teacup in his hand, and took a few deep breaths before he said: "This palace did not kill the emperor directly, and before this palace left, he still had a breather; However, it couldn't last long. ”

"Niangniang mean that she didn't see the emperor holding his breath with her own eyes?" Jiang Wu immediately exploded.

Facing Jiang Wu who asked such a piercing question, Jiang Shi showed a deep displeasure: "Anyway, he is also the husband of this palace, even if he wants his life, this palace has no way to watch him die in front of this palace; No one knows better than this palace how cruel this poison is, and those who fall for this poison will definitely die. ”

After hearing Jiang's words, everyone's hearts were lowered a little; There were one or two people who were still uneasy, and quietly glanced at Zhuo Lang, because everyone knew that this poison was given to the Jiang family by him.

Noticing the eyes cast at him, Zhuo Lang got up from his chair and said, "Yes, the one who is poisoned will definitely die, the old man has long guessed that in the heart of the queen mother, there is still some residual affection for the son of heaven of Dawei; Therefore, he quietly explained to a few palace people, and followed the queen mother to Tai'an Palace to investigate, about the time, I am afraid that I will come back soon. ”

As soon as Zhuo Lang's words fell, a thin figure pushed the door in from outside the hall, knelt directly opposite everyone in a proper manner, and didn't even dare to raise his head and replied: "Queen Qi, the slave took your phoenix order to Tai'an Palace, and saw the emperor lying on the ground alone and didn't move, the slave approached and carefully investigated, and found that he had died." ”

Hearing the palace people's reply, the hearts of the people present completely fell.

And Jiang's face finally turned snow-white at this moment, and she looked at Zhuo Lang coldly: "I can't see it, you are quite concerned about this matter, you dare to doubt even the things that this palace does, and dare to quietly send someone to keep an eye on this palace?" ”

In the face of Jiang's obvious anger, Zhuo Lang still smiled and said: "It's not that the old man can't trust Niangniang, it's just that in Niangniang's heart, the weight of the Son of Heaven of Dawei is too heavy, and the old man is worried that at the critical moment, Niangniang will be merciful and ruin the big thing." After all, this matter is also related to the old man, only if the mother succeeds, the old man can get the person he wants, isn't it? ”

Jiang Shi let out a cold snort, his gaze was still cold: "Then now this answer, are you satisfied?" ”

Zhuo Lang nodded and said: "The old man is very satisfied, here, the old man also wants to congratulate the mother, the big thing will be done." ”

Hearing Zhuo Lang's words, the rest of the Jiang family also knelt down to the Jiang family sitting on the phoenix chair, and the voices of congratulations were endless: "Congratulations to Niangniang, great things will come true, and your wish will be achieved." ”
