Prince Dongping bit his lip, he guessed that his own people had suffered.

Xing Jiang turned around when he went out.

"Empress Qiqi, the guards of Zongzheng Mansion suddenly mutinied outside, they wanted to break into the palace, but they were stopped by Deputy Chief Chu and others."

Prince Dongping secretly gritted his teeth, there were at least four or five hundred guards in the palace, and if he moved, he would definitely suffer a loss on his side.

"Has the mutiny subsided?"

The queen asked.

"Yes, it has subsided."

When the queen heard that Deputy Chief Manager Chu was leading people outside, she frowned and said to Xing Jiang, "Chief Manager Xing, you go and invite Deputy Chief Manager Chu to come in, he has made a contribution just now, and this palace wants to praise him." ”

Xing Jiang hugged his fist and said, "Yes." After speaking, he turned around and went out, and after a while, he came in with a slightly chubby middle-aged officer, this middle-aged officer had a square face, a short beard, and seemed to be a wooden person, but his eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he had blood stains on his body.

The corners of Prince Dongping's mouth twitched twice, this deputy head of Chu had never dealt with him in ordinary times, he only felt that he was a dispensable little person, and he couldn't imagine that he would be the first to attack him.

The queen said lightly, "Deputy Chief Chu has worked hard, please wait here for a while." She asked Xing Jiang to call Chu Chunlei in, because she was afraid that he would make trouble outside, after all, this deputy manager has always been mysterious and difficult to buy.

Chu Chunlei bent down and saluted, holding down the waist knife and standing on the edge of the Xingjiang River.

Silence returned to the temple.

Sikong Man coughed twice to break the deadlock, and said, "Taiwei Gao, Lord Lin, for the sake of the safety of my Dawei's society, you two should hurry up and make up your mind, it is not a way to go on like this."

Lin Chengyong sneered, "Is it that what you want to do has been done, what are you sorry about, anyway, I won't sign this edict, even if the knife is on my neck, I won't sign it"

The queen stretched her waist and said to Prince Dongping, "Your Excellency, please make a statement first, although you don't need to sign and agree to this edict, your opinion can be written." ”

Prince Dongping was worried, the people he brought were killed by Xing Jiang, and he had no power to resist, he didn't want to participate in this matter, but it was Gao Taiwei and Lin Chengyong who forced him to join, and thought that the three of them could fight against the queen together, but they didn't expect to fall completely behind.

"Ahem, ahem, this, this king has no opinion."

"Oh, then you agree with this edict"

Prince Dongping lowered his head, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

A message from Huang Jean came from outside.

"Come in"

The queen shouted, and Huang Jien pushed the door in.

"Empress Qiyu, General Zhenguo and General Zhao Huawen of the Imperial Capital returned to Beijing to escort him, and he is waiting for the order to enter the palace outside the Xuande Gate at this moment."

The queen smiled proudly, nodded and said, "Very good, General Zhao has worked hard, please wait for a while, and then invite him into the palace after the disposal is completed here." ”

Hearing this news, Taiwei Gao's face changed, Zhao Huawen was able to walk to Xuande Gate, and the Dali Temple and the forbidden army in the city obviously failed to stop him.

"Okay, then this edict is signed by the ministers, I just hope that the queen can properly arrange the ministers, so as not to chill the world"

Lin Chengyong was furious, as long as two of the three of them signed the edict, it would take effect.

"Lord Taiwei, haven't you been trying your best to protect the prince, how can you betray at this time?"

"Alas, this is not an apostasy, this is a man who knows the times as a handsome."

Taiwei Gao picked up the pen and didn't read the text of the edict, so he signed his name on it.

The queen said to Huang Jien and Prince Dongping, "Xuanxin Wang Zhaozhen, King Zhaoshu, abolished Prince Zhaoheng, criminal minister Zhaoxu, and Zhaoyi enter the palace"

Huang Jien bowed and said, "Yes." ”

Prince Dongping shook his head dejectedly, the crown prince was imprisoned in the East Palace, but King Lu and King Jing were detained in their own hands, and the queen had already buried Neiying by his side.

The queen said to Sikong Man, "Lord Sikong, it is inconvenient for this palace to come forward, so please go to Xuande Gate in person and invite General Zhao to come in." ”

Sikong Man answered and walked out.

"You, you will all be sinners through the ages"

Lin Chengyong's eyes were about to split, and he wanted to pounce on it and tear up the edict, but he was grabbed by Mai Ji, although Lin Chengyong is also half of the martial arts, but if he really wants to do it, he is not Mai Ji's opponent.

Xing Jiang and Chu Chunlei looked at each other coldly, without any intention of hindering.

Taiwei Gao persuaded Lin Chengyong, "Lord Lin, when the old minister thinks about it now, he thinks that His Royal Highness King Xin is talented and intelligent, and he is worthy of a great responsibility, so don't be stubborn." ”

Lin Chengyong knew that the situation was difficult to change, so he took out a gold medal and said angrily, "Okay, since Lin can't do anything about this matter, then he has no choice but to hand over power, resign and go back to farming, and ask the queen for permission" This token is the dispatch order of the cavalry of the forbidden army, and Lin Chengyong handing over this is equivalent to withdrawing from the power competition.

Mai Ji picked up Lin Chengyong's gold medal and sent it to the bead curtain, the queen smiled faintly and picked up the gold medal from a slender jade hand.

"Lord Taiwei, since Lord Lin has decided to retire, this palace represents His Majesty's permission, what about you?"

Captain Gao trembled, and Suo Suo also took out a gold medal.

"Yes, the old minister, I was going to make an errand with the ambassador, so I went back to recuperate."

"Then Dali Temple should also be handed over."

Taiwei Gao wiped a cold sweat, he and Lin Chengyong had become meat on the felt board, and they were left to Sikong's father and daughter to dispose of, whether the gold medal was handed over or not, he could no longer control the situation.

Seeing Taiwei Gao take out two gold medals, the queen almost couldn't help laughing, she has been dormant for many years, cautious and careful layout everywhere, and now she finally keeps the clouds open and sees the moon, from now on, she is the real top ten thousand people, no one in Da Wei dares to disobey her wishes, and no one can give orders to her

After touching a stick of incense, Sikong Man accompanied a gold-armored general into the Renming Palace.

This golden armor general is none other than Zhao Huawen.

Zhao Huawen stepped forward and gave a military salute, and said, "The general of the Zhenguo and the imperial capital Zhao Huawen see the queen's mother, may the mother be a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old" He said respectfully, but his attitude was arrogant and proud.

"General Zhao is exempt."

"Xie Niangniang"

The queen felt that Zhao Huawen seemed to be a different person today, could it be that he was in charge of the military power, and he began to look at everything if this is the case, after today, this person must be on guard

Zhao Huawen glanced at Lin Chengyong and Taiwei Gao, Lin Chengyong's heart struck, this Zhao Huawen's eyes were blood-red, and he had a bad aura on his body, I don't know how many people he killed outside today before he came here

Not long after, Zhao Heng, Zhao Xu and Zhao Yi were taken to Renming Hall by a team of forbidden army guards, and Prince Dongping also followed, and he looked helpless.

Zhao Heng was hunched back, although he was neatly dressed, he looked trembling, and Zhao Xu and Zhao Yi had messy hair, they had chains on their bodies, and iron cores were stuffed in their mouths, so they couldn't even speak, the three of them entered the hall, Zhao Heng knelt down towards the queen, Zhao Xu and Zhao Yi were reluctant, but they were escorted by the guards to kneel.

"Huang Jien, Xuanzhao"

The queen commanded, she should quickly cut through the mess and dispose of the matter here.

Huang Jien picked up the edict and was about to read it, when suddenly Zhao Huawen took a step forward and said coldly, "Slow"

The queen was stunned, but she didn't expect that Zhao Huawen would break the edict at this moment.

"What is the inspiration of General Zhao?"

"Now the edict is announced, and there are still people who have not arrived"

The queen was stunned, how did Zhao Huawen know that there were still two fewer people who announced the edict

"Yes, King Xin and King Qi have not yet arrived, so they should be on the way."

The ministers in the palace all showed surprise, Sikong Man's pupils shrank suddenly, and he nodded to the four guards beside the queen, signaling them to be more vigilant.

Zhao Huawen smiled.

"Queen Mother, His Royal Highness King Xin will not come, except for King Qi, there is one less person here"

The queen immediately felt uneasy in her heart.

"General Zhao, what do you mean when you say that His Royal Highness King Xin will not come?"

"Haha, not only will the king of faith not come, but the king of righteousness will not come either, so you don't have to send someone to call them."

"Then, then you say that there is one less person here, who is missing"

A feminine voice came from outside the hall.

"It's Hongu."

The queen rose from her seat in shock.

"You, how are you"
