Chapter 616: House Arrest for the Queen Mother
Your Majesty, will this cause suspicion? He Taigao said worriedly.
"It will definitely arouse suspicion, but it's okay, in the future, the twelve inner prisons will be handed over to you to manage, and you have to find a few trustworthy and good martial arts masters these days, I will be of great use."
"The old slave obeys."
Hearing that the twelve inner prisons were handed over to his own management, He Taigao was naturally excited, but soon he was worried: "Your Majesty, although Angliss is dead, Angli still has many cronies in the twelve inner prisons, and the old slave is worried that they will be disobedient............
"Big companion, you are not young, do you still use me to teach you disobedient people? If you let it go, all those who are disobedient will be executed before the Queen Mother knows! ”
"Yes!"
Wang Chong walked over and said, "Listen, you and I have already started to do it, if we fail, I may not die, but you ............ Mortal! ”
He Taigao instantly understood, and hurriedly responded: "The old slave must go all out, be loyal to the emperor's dog slave, and share the emperor's worries." ”
"Okay, get your hands ready, let's go to the Inner Twelve Prisons together."
Wang Chong was also worried that he would be too tall to deal with alone, so he went into battle in person.
He Taigao has been in the palace for so long, although his power is not large, he is not without his cronies, and he soon recruited more than a dozen eunuchs.
With these people, Wang Chong took his guards again and went to the inner twelve prisons.
After hearing Wang Chong say that Angli fell to his death while walking, the rest of the managers of the 12th Inner Prison were stunned.
You must know that although Angliss is old, he is also a martial arts student, how could he fall to his death while walking?
There must be something strange about this!
"I will definitely investigate the matter of Father-in-law An in detail and give him justice, but the twelve prisons in the inner prison can't be left without an owner for a day, Father-in-law He has followed me for many years, and he is definitely qualified for the important position of Father-in-law An, I believe that Father-in-law An knows underground, and he will definitely smile at Jiuquan."
He Taigao's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and he found that the emperor had really changed a lot, and he could say such nonsense without blinking his eyes.
However, this is a great thing for him, and he was originally worried that the emperor's ability was not high.
He couldn't help but think of the scene when Wang Chong suddenly attacked Angliss before.
Originally, seeing that Angliss did not drink poisonous wine, he was still a little worried that he would show his feet, but he didn't expect the emperor to suddenly make a move.
It can be seen that the emperor grasped the timing very skillfully, first promised Angliss not to let him drink poisonous wine, and suddenly made a move when he was relaxed.
It's as if the emperor knows kung fu.
Because Wang Zhong came over in person, even though some people below were dissatisfied, they couldn't say anything for a while.
Several cronies of the Queen Mother secretly decided to turn back and sue the Queen Mother.
It's just a pity that they were too late.
As soon as Wang Chong left, He Taigao used the excuse of checking the accounts and finding out the problem to put all Anglis's cronies in prison, and when the Empress Dowager Lu Huan knew about these things in the evening, it was too late.
……………………
"Come on, let the emperor see the palace!"
After knowing that Angli was dead and that the twelve inner prisons were presided over by He Taigao, Lu Huan was furious and asked people to call Wang Chong.
At the same time, she decided to make it difficult for the civil and military officials early tomorrow morning.
As the queen mother, she has some allies in the court.
It's just that before the palace maid went out, she heard a miserable scream from the palace maid and died at the door.
"There is a plague in the Feng Palace, no one is allowed to enter or leave, and those who disobey will not be killed!"
He Taigao's sharp voice came, and a group of guards from the twelve inner prisons surrounded the place.
"Grandpa He, I think you are looking for death!"
Lu Huan didn't know that Wang Chong was going to put her under house arrest!
"Queen Mother, I'm sorry, in order to prevent the plague from spreading, our family can only do this." He Taigaopi said with a smile, he had already reached this step, and it was impossible to retreat.
To retreat is to die!
"I'll see who dares to stop me, little stool and small table, go out with me!"
"Yes!"
The small stool and the small table are the masters of the inner world who follow Lu Huan, although they are small eunuchs, but they are strong in martial arts.
It's just that before he stepped out of the door, five people with bows and arrows suddenly appeared behind He Taigao, and with a few 'whoosh' sounds, the bows and arrows instantly shot the small stool and the small table on the spot.
"Ah......h
A group of palace maids and eunuchs screamed, and even Lu Huan retreated in shock: "It's the opposite, you guys are the opposite." ”
"Queen Mother, forgive the servants for being rude, it's just that the emperor's order is difficult to do, and our family has no choice."
After He Taigao finished speaking, he turned his head and ordered: "All sides are fenced off, and no one is allowed to enter or leave!" ”
"Scum!"
A group of Ouchi masters surrounded the Phoenix Palace.
The harem says it's big, but it's also small.
As soon as the matter of Fenggong came out, almost the entire harem knew about it.
Everyone is wondering, is there really a plague in Fenggong?
Just when a group of concubines were strange, the emperor issued an order for the harem concubines to go to the main hall to discuss the plague.
Could it be that there is really a plague in the harem?
The concubines were all curious.
Because the original owner Luo Zhao has not been the emperor for a long time, he has not had time to marry many concubines.
Now in addition to the concubine Li who was given to die, there are eight concubines left.
Queen Zhao Luan had already come over and was on Wang Chong's side.
"Queen, I want to rectify the harem, but I can't keep an eye on it all the time, and I'll leave it to you later." Before anyone came, Wang Chong gave Zhao Luan a preventive shot first.
Zhao Luan also knew about today's house arrest of the Queen Mother, and was surprised by Wang Chong's resolute behavior for a while.
At the same time, she also understands that there is no turning back at this point.
Once the Queen Mother returns to power, she and Wang Zhong may have great difficulties.
Although it is said that the emperor is the son of the queen mother, in order to compete for power, I don't know how many things have happened about the queen mother killing her son throughout the ages, and they must guard against it.
"The concubine knows." Zhao Luan nodded vigorously, and his face returned to majesty.
After the concubines got the news of going to the main hall, they didn't dare to slack off, and walked into the main hall one by one.
"The concubines see the emperor."
"The concubines see the emperor's ......"
Wang Zhong waved his hand: "No courtesy, come here, give a seat." ”
Looking at the concubine sitting in front of him, Wang Zhong couldn't help but sigh at the benefits of being the emperor.
These concubines have their own characteristics, some are convex and backward, a little fair-faced, and some are short and chubby.
But most of them have one characteristic, and that is that they are short.
Sure enough, the people of this dynasty like short people, that is, Queen Zhao Luan is a maverick in this group of girls and grows very tall.
"Concubines, I believe you also know today's events, there are two palace maids in the Feng Palace who suddenly got sick, after investigation, I am afraid that they will be infected with smallpox, in order to avoid the spread ............of the plague, I closed the Feng Palace for the first time, and I pity my mother who cherishes the world, in order not to infect others, she voluntarily closes the door, which really makes me feel guilty."
This is a statement that Wang Chong has already thought of, and the concubines were stunned when they heard it.
The many concubines in front of him, although they are all his wives, but the hearts of the people are separated from the belly, in the deep palace, who can know that the person next to the pillow is really wholeheartedly devoted to you?
"Concubines, is there anything unusual around you or on your body? If there is any abnormality, you must inform the imperial doctor as soon as possible. Wang Zhong said solemnly.
"The concubine has been staying in the house recently and has not gone out."
"The concubines and the palace maids around them are not sick............"
One by one, the concubines hurriedly expressed their attitudes, saying that they were not sick.
"Well, that's very good." Wang Chong deliberately paused for a moment and said with emotion: "Pity my mother, I don't know what to do, hey......"
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother Ji has her own natural appearance, and she will be fine."
"Well, the emperor doesn't have to worry, be careful of breaking your body."
Wang Chong deliberately smiled: "Hearing the words of the concubines, I am a lot relieved, in this case, in order not to worry the queen mother, I will talk about what to do next in the harem." ”
"The harem can't be left without an owner for a day, and the queen mother can't come out now, so I decided that the queen will manage the harem."
If something happens to the queen mother, the harem will naturally be managed by the queen, and no one can say anything about this.
It's just surprising that a person who was canonized as Concubine Shen suddenly got up and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine feels that something is wrong." ”
"Oh, what's wrong?"
Wang Chong's eyes flashed, sure enough, the harem is not peaceful, the queen mother has been placed under house arrest by him, and there are still people who oppose his decision!
In my memory, this Concubine Shen is the same as Concubine Li, and she is also the woman selected by the Queen Mother for him, and it seems that she is a waiter in the Ministry of Rites at home, and she was chosen at the beginning, according to the Queen Mother, this Concubine Shen is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is a good woman who is virtuous and virtuous.
But according to Wang Chong's current view, it's a joke, I'm afraid that the queen mother chose the woman for him in order to control the emperor.
Concubine Shen responded: "The harem has always been managed by the Queen Mother, although the queen is capable, but after all, she has never done it, and the concubines are a little worried." ”
"Yes, what is Aifei's suggestion?" Wang Chong asked lightly.
"The concubines think that it will be managed by our sisters, and as for the Queen Mother, please ask a famous doctor for treatment, hoping that the Queen Mother will recover as soon as possible." Concubine Shen is very bold, what she relies on is that the emperor did not want to see the queen before, plus she is a concubine who is relatively close to the queen mother, she believes that the emperor will definitely consider her words carefully.
It's just that she was wrong.
Wang Zhong looked at Concubine Shen and said, "Concubine Shen, I suddenly remembered one thing, Concubine Li and you have a good relationship on weekdays, right??" When Concubine Li begged me to die, she told me something about you, and you scolded me behind my back for being a faint monarch and unworthy of being the emperor! ”
Wang Chong is purely framing people, who made this Concubine Shen disobedient? Now the king is important to the absolute obedience of his subordinates, and only in this way can he make drastic reforms.
This Concubine Shen can be regarded as hitting the muzzle of his gun.
As for this crime, Concubine Li is dead anyway, and everything he says is up to him.
"Your Majesty, you are wronged, the concubines are loyal to the emperor, but they haven't said these words!"
Concubine Shen's face changed, and she hurriedly knelt down.
At this moment, she was a little confused, and she didn't understand why the emperor suddenly asked about the crime.
If Concubine Li really said that, the emperor should have troubled her a long time ago.
The most important thing is that she hasn't said these words.
The so-called authorities are fascinated, and when Concubine Shen is confused, the other concubines understand it.
What kind of bullshit plague, the emperor is going to rectify the queen mother.
If anyone speaks for the Queen Mother, the emperor will rectify him.
Pity this Concubine Shen, she still can't understand it.
