Chapter 740: Purge
King Pingjun never expected that Empress Dowager Pei would step down from his position as Zongzheng, and he was immediately angry, anxious and angry: "I am Zongzheng elected by the first emperor, and I have worked hard all these years, and I have worked hard without merit. ”
"The Queen Mother is about to unload my errand as soon as she opens her mouth today. This is harem politics! Guilty of a big taboo! I'm going to go to the emperor to reason! ”
Empress Dowager Pei smiled coldly: "The emperor rests on the couch every day, and you have to go to the emperor to reason with your mouth." From the point of view of the mourning family, you are deliberately making a fuss and making the emperor unhappy! ”
"You still have the face to mention the emperor! Not long after the first emperor left, you dared to bully the queen mother of the family, and the young new emperor. How have you ever put the mother and son of the mourning family in your eyes! ”
"If the first emperor knows underground, I'm afraid he will take you underground tonight."
King Pingjun: "......"
King Pingjun's face turned red and pale, but he still didn't kneel down to ask for guilt, he stiffened his neck and said: "I am Zongzheng, I have to take care of what should be managed." ”
"Even though the four princes of the eldest prince have made big mistakes, they are all descendants of the Yuan family and the emperor's elder brothers. The emperor is thinking of blood kinship, and he should also open up the net and save their lives. ”
"There are also princesses and granddaughters of the emperor, all of whom have been implicated. The emperor is kind-hearted, and he should be able to settle his sister-in-law and nephews and nieces. I am completely selfless, all for the sake of the emperor. ”
"The Queen Mother keeps saying that I deceived the emperor when I was young today, which is ridiculous!"
Empress Dowager Pei continued to scream angrily: "The mourning family doesn't want to interfere in politics. You don't stop one by one, making the emperor worried and annoyed, and you can't be quiet. The ministers of the court and the central government, it is inconvenient for the mourning family to see them. You are the Yuan family, and the mourning family will teach you a lesson today. ”
"Someone came, spread the will of the mourning family, and the king of Pingjun was disrespectful to the mourning family. Today he took the position of Zongzheng of his sect house. ”
"That doesn't make sense! Although you are the queen mother, you can't control the foreign ministers. King Pingjun was excited, and his spit spatted out: "I am Zongren Mansion Zongzheng, you don't have the right and qualification to discharge my errand." ”
Empress Dowager Pei's eyes were cold, and there was a chill in her voice: "Okay, the mourning family doesn't have this right, the emperor always has it." Come, send a letter to the emperor, please ask the emperor to make a holy decree today. ”
"The king of Pingjun will be 'invited' out of the palace."
Such arrogance is simply too much!
Before King Pingjun was about to shout angrily, the two envoys and palace maids had already stepped forward neatly, and one of them held one of King Pingjun's arms.
King Pingjun had some skills when he was young, and he had been hollowed out by wine all these years. I was involuntarily invited out of the palace. wanted to scold angrily, but when the words came to his mouth, he endured it again and left with an ugly face.
……
After Emperor Xuanping heard the whole story, he actually laughed: "The queen mother's handling like this is exactly what I want." ”
Then, let the people make a message.
On the same day, the king of Pingjun, the sect of Zongzheng, was deprived of his official position. The new Zongzheng has not yet been appointed for the time being, and the original Zongzheng will lead the errand first.
As soon as the news spread, all the royal family members were shocked.
Among the royal families, there are not many real differences. Zongren Mansion Zongzheng is already the highest official position in the clan. Now I'm being stroked off as soon as I grunt.
Although the Son of Heaven is young, his means are not soft at all.
and Empress Dowager Pei's fierceness, which is even more frightening. No one dares to underestimate Empress Dowager Pei anymore. The princesses of the county in the clan entered the palace to say goodbye, and they were much more cautious.
Empress Dowager Pei slightly revealed that she wanted to "promote" the younger generation, and everyone was in high spirits, and they had to flatter and curry favor.
King Pingjun was unlucky, and he happened to vacate the position of Zongzheng. If you can please Empress Dowager Pei, maybe this piece of fat will fall into your own bowl!
Empress Dowager Pei threw out a big carrot and smiled at the audience's flattery, and the atmosphere in the Jiaofang Hall was harmonious and harmonious.
A princess of the clan said with a smile: "The queen mother will enter the palace in a few days." When the time comes, the Queen Mother will have a daughter-in-law to respect, and her life will be more comfortable. ”
Another lady of the clan took over the conversation: "I heard that Miss Liang is beautiful, knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous. It's a pity that I haven't seen it yet. ”
Of course, there are also a few people who are uninteresting, and they open their mouths and ask: "As soon as the queen mother enters the palace, should this Jiaofang Palace be vacated?" ”
According to the rules of the palace, only the queen of the middle palace can live in the Jiaofang Palace. Empress Dowager Pei has been promoted to the queen mother, and it is time to move out of the Jiaofang Palace.
A trace of embarrassment flashed in Empress Dowager Pei's eyes, and she said softly: "Of course. The new palace of the mourning family has been cleaned up. In these two days, the mourning family will be moved. can't do a greeting ceremony, and the queen has been wronged. The mother-in-law of the mourning family can't always occupy the Jiaofang Palace! ”
Since she entered the palace, she has lived in the Jiaofang Palace. Here are the traces of her life for more than ten years and have many memories.
However, the queen's stay in the Jiaofang Palace is the rule of the Great Chu court. She will not break this rule by relying on the deep love between mother and son, let alone embarrass her daughter-in-law.
……
Two days later, Empress Dowager Pei moved into Renhe Palace.
All the concubines also moved to the dormitory. left the harem to the concubines of the new emperor in the future.
Taking advantage of this time, Empress Dowager Pei released a group of palace attendants out of the palace. There are also some palace attendants who have disappeared without a trace, and no one knows where they have gone, and no one dares to ask.
In the end, only forty percent of the original palace people remained.
Once a son of heaven and a courtier. When the new emperor ascended the throne, it was also customary to change a group of people in the harem. However, such a "purge" is really rare.
There was one more shocking thing. I heard that before the palace people died, they broke out and hurt people, and there was a young concubine who was stabbed to death by the palace people.
Two other concubines died of a violent illness.
The remaining concubines are trembling one by one, and everyone is in danger.
The news in the palace can't be hidden from those who have a heart.
After the Duchess of Pingguo knew about this, she gasped and whispered to Cheng Jinrong, who came to ask for peace: "There is such a big movement in the palace, and I don't know how many people have died. There is also a concubine, who was stabbed to death by the palace people. This palace does not stop at all, fortunately you went back to the house to recuperate from your injuries and did not continue to stay in the palace. ”
Cheng Jinrong hummed softly.
Mrs. Tai sighed again: "The Queen Mother is also really impressive. In the past, the Queen Mother had a gentle temperament and was the most lenient. I didn't expect that I could really make such a ruthless move. ”
Cheng Jinrong was silent.
Of course she knows what Mrs. Tai said.
He Qi couldn't return home from time to time, so he often sent news back.
She knew that many palace people had died in the harem, and the attendants around Emperor Xuanping had also changed. The three concubines who died were all Zheng Jieyu's henchmen. No one in the harem can compete with Empress Dowager Pei anymore
She also knew. Emperor Xuanping is still recuperating from his injuries and rarely shows up. Empress Dowager Pei sent a letter to Emperor Xuanping to issue an order and seize the Zongren Mansion Zongzheng's errand, which made the courtiers very dissatisfied, thinking that this was a move of "Si Chen"!
