In the dormitory of Zhengyang Palace, the emperor sat on a chair with his eyes closed.

Concubine De sat next to her, very anxious. But nothing can be done except waiting.

Just then, footsteps were heard outside.

The emperor opened his eyes, and what greeted him was the queen's slightly proud face. Yun Muqing stood beside the queen.

"Sure enough, it's you." At the moment, in addition to anger, the emperor is also heartbroken.

The queen walked slowly in front of the emperor, smiled, and saluted respectfully: "The concubine greets the emperor." ”

The emperor's eyes were cold, and he couldn't stand up and strangle the queen at this moment.

"Queen, you are really my good queen!" The emperor looked angry.

The queen showed a smug smile on her face: "Your Majesty, the concubines are also a last resort." ”

The emperor snorted and turned his gaze to Yun Muqing.

Yun Muqing's face was cold and he didn't say a word.

"Your Majesty, give an edict." After speaking, the queen sat down.

The emperor couldn't hold back any longer, and stood up with a palm on the table: "You mother and son, it's really a wolf ambition!" I didn't see it! Poisonous woman, rebel son! ”

After speaking, the emperor coughed. Concubine De and Gonggong Xue hurriedly came over to help him sit down.

The queen looked at the armor on her hand as if nothing happened: "Your Majesty, the concubines will not be verbose." Now there are two paths in front of the emperor. One is that the emperor passed on the throne to Qing'er, and then became the emperor. The other way, the concubines don't know it, because the emperor understands. ”

The emperor trembled with anger, he pointed at the queen, and hated to kill her immediately: "Seeking power and usurping the throne, you are so bold!" I will never pass on the throne to such a wolf-hearted rebel! ”

The smile on the queen's face disappeared, and she looked at the emperor coldly: "It is because the concubines care about the love of husband and wife, and Qing'er takes care of the love of father and son, so I want the emperor to take care of his life earlier." Your Majesty, if the concubine wanted to harm you, she would have done it a long time ago, so why wait until today. ”

The emperor snorted: "You want this rebel son to succeed to the throne in the name of righteousness." Kill me, and it will be confirmed that he is seeking power and usurping the throne. You think I don't understand, and you're afraid that I will leave an edict in advance. ”

The queen let out a long sigh: "The emperor is eccentric, where can't Qing'er be the prince?" Why, it's Yun Chuhan? ”

"Even if it's not Han'er, it's another prince, can you just give up?" Concubine De asked coldly.

The queen's gaze moved to Concubine De: "Becoming a king and defeating a king, the days of your pride have passed." Concubine De, you are still polite to this palace. Because this will determine how long you can live. ”

"How can you be so sure that your son will ascend to the throne?" Concubine De smiled contemptuously, her tone full of mockery.

"Yun Chuhan is unconscious, Yun Chenhuan still doesn't know where to go, and he won't come back on Chinese New Year's Eve. Yun Moxuan is a waste. Not to mention other princes. This palace has taken control of the imperial city, Concubine De, do you think someone will come to save you? The queen was dismissive of Concubine De's ridicule.

The emperor had just guessed that now the imperial city was already controlled by the queen. Otherwise, Yun Muqing would not have appeared in Zhengyang Palace after the palace gate was under the key.

What to do? The emperor was anxious. It would be nice if I could give the tiger talisman away. In this way, even if the entire imperial city is controlled by the queen and Yun Muqing, the defenders of the capital can be mobilized.

The queen stood up and flicked her sleeves: "Your Majesty, let's think about it." The concubine retired first. A few of you, go outside and keep guard, don't disturb the emperor's rest. ”

After speaking, the queen raised her head and walked out with an indifferent face.

Yun Muqing walked out behind the queen, and he didn't say a word from beginning to end. Several of the guards also left the dormitory and went to guard outside.

"Get out!" The emperor grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it out.

"Your Majesty, take care!" Gonggong Xue quickly knelt down.

"Body, what's the use of me wanting this body!" The emperor felt that something had stabbed him in the heart, which made him feel painful.

Back then, no matter how tragic it was, he was not afraid.

Gonggong Xue looked at the emperor's appearance, and almost cried out in a hurry: "Niangniang, hurry up and find a way to save the emperor!" As long as you can save the emperor, let the minions die! ”

Concubine De sighed: "You get up first." If you can save the emperor, don't talk about your life, even if you want the life of this palace, this palace will not blink an eye. ”

The emperor took Concubine De's hand and motioned for her to sit down: "For so many years, you have been sick. You've been snubbed and mistreated, but you've never had a trace of resentment. Now that my body is better, I can see that the clouds are open and the moon is bright, but I just encountered this kind of thing. In this life, I owe you nothing. ”

Hearing the emperor's words, Concubine De smiled gently: "The concubine has never felt bitter. As long as the emperor is in good health and in a good mood, the concubines are satisfied. The concubine is in the position of a concubine, but because of a long-term illness, she can't have a few more children for the emperor, it's not the concubine's. ”

The emperor patted Concubine De's hand: "You helped me take care of the fifth child, and he is naturally your child." ”

"What the emperor said is", Concubine De's face suddenly showed worry, "At this time, I hope Huan'er will never come back." He didn't know what was going on in the palace. ”

"Probably not. Recently, he wrote only that he would not return on Chinese New Year's Eve. You don't have to worry about that. ”

Compared with Yun Chenhuan, the emperor was more worried about Yun Chuhan. After all, he didn't think Yun Chenhuan would return to Beijing so soon.

The guards in the courtyard were withdrawn because there was a need for manpower elsewhere. Only a few guards were left in the main hall to prevent the emperor from coming out of the dormitory.

There were also a few guards at the gate of Zhengyang Palace.

Hearing that there was no movement outside, Su Quan cautiously opened the door. He poked his head out and looked out, and there was no one around.

Su Quan walked out slowly and gently changed the door of the utility room. He walked behind a pillar, looked around, and saw that there seemed to be someone outside the gate of Zhengyang Palace. And there was a low voice in the main hall.

Su Quan frowned and decided to look at the back. He walked cautiously, lest he make a move.

Fortunately, there was no one in the courtyard. Su Quan detoured to the window of the dormitory and heard the low voices of the emperor and Concubine De from inside. He looked through the crack in the window and felt that there was no one else in the dormitory.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang!" Su Quan whispered.

Concubine De's ears were very good, and she immediately put her index finger to her lips and signaled the emperor and Gonggong Xue not to speak.

"!" Su Quan shouted in a low voice again.

Concubine De heard the voice coming from outside the window, and it was Su Quan's voice. She was immediately overjoyed.

Concubine De gently pushed open the window, and Su Quan turned in lightly. Concubine De looked out, made sure that there was no one, and quickly closed the window.

Concubine De and Su Quan walked to the emperor's side.

"Your Majesty, we are saved. can let Su Quan send the news out and move the rescuers. Concubine De whispered.

The emperor looked at Su Quan and felt that there was little hope: "Concubine De, just like the queen, it is obvious that they have taken control of the imperial city. You let Su Quan out, isn't this sending him to death? ”

Su Quan knelt down: "Your Majesty, the slave has some kung fu." Even if he dies, he must escape from the palace with the emperor's will. ”

"Your Majesty, there is no other way now. Presumably, General Anjo has already taken control of the forbidden army! Xue Gonggong persuaded anxiously.

The emperor thought about it, and now he really can't think of a second way, so he made up his mind and nodded: "Xue Zhen, pen and ink are waiting, I want to draw up a secret decree." ”

Xue Zhen hurriedly went to get pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Concubine De said to Su Quan: "You first find a place to hide, in case someone comes in." ”

Su Quan hurriedly got up, found a box and got in.

Father-in-law Xue took the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and quickly laid out the paper. Concubine De hurriedly grinded.

The emperor picked up the pen and began to draft the decree. After writing, he habitually wanted to take the jade seal. With his hand hanging in mid-air, the emperor was slightly stunned and took his hand back.

The jade seal is not in the dormitory.

"Xue Zhen, take out the tiger talisman. There is no jade seal, which can prove that this is a holy decree. The emperor said.

Hearing the emperor say this, Su Quan climbed out of the box.

Gonggong Xue took out the tiger talisman in a hidden place and handed it to the emperor with both hands.

The emperor took the tiger talisman and handed it to Su Quan along with the secret decree.

"Su Quan, the lives of me and Concubine De are in your hands! Go to the Jin Mansion and hand them over to General Jin Fang. ”

Su Quan knelt down and took the tiger talisman and the secret decree with both hands: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the slave will definitely hand over this tiger talisman and the secret decree to the general!" ”

Jin Fang was Kanazawa's own elder brother and a hussar general of the Daning Dynasty. He was upright and unsociable, and was deeply trusted by the emperor.

"Be careful!" Concubine De couldn't help but admonish.

"Don't worry!" Su Quan kowtowed, and then walked out of the window.

Concubine De closed the window, feeling very heavy. Right now, Su Quan is the only hope. However, she has some situations, Su Quan is good at martial arts, and light skills are okay, so she won't be caught all of a sudden.

Ancheng thought that there were only three of them in Zhengyang Palace, so as long as he guarded the door of Zhengyang Palace, the door of the dormitory would be foolproof. Unexpectedly, a Su Quan was missed.

Su Quan came to the toilet and easily climbed over the wall. Looking out, there was no one. He hurriedly jumped down and quickly hid in the woods next to him.

Luckily, he moved fast. Anjo walked over from the woods with a team of guards. Su Quan hurriedly poked his head out and looked over.

Ancheng stopped at the gate of Zhengyang Palace, as if he was saying something to the guards. After that, Anseong took the pair

Palace of the Rising Sun.

The queen sat on the bed, her brows furrowed slightly, her eyes closed, all the thoughts she had.

Yun Muqing couldn't help but ask: "Queen Mother, now that my father and Concubine De have been trapped in Zhengyang Palace, the one who should be killed has been killed." The palace is also under our control. What is the queen waiting for? ”

The queen opened her eyes: "I understand your father's temper. There's no way he's going to agree to our terms right away. What's more, I have been married to him for decades, and I don't want to hurt your father's life. ”

Yun Muqing showed deep worry: "Queen Mother, there are many dreams at night!" ”

"I know. Qing'er, can you do it? The queen asked.

Yun Muqing was silent.
