Chapter 971: War Drums (3)
Intrauterine.
Shi Yueran was almost frantically asking her close attendants to cover the doors and windows carefully, and the soldiers outside were chaotic, and she knew for the first time that death could be so close to her.
Ji'er shrunk and hid in the nurse's arms, Shi Yueran held back her tears and gently stroked his hair, "Mama, hurry up and wait for Ji'er to go down from the secret passage of the east ear room!" There's a little room hidden under the bricks over there, and when I get in, the door is locked, and I can't come out unless I look for it from the outside! Photon! Quick, take them over! β
"Mother, mother! The queen mother and the emperor will hide in with their sons! The little boy in his arms was slender, but out of nowhere, a force came out, dragging Shi Yueran and refusing to let go.
Shi Yueran had no choice but to squat down, turned her head to look at the man behind her, she only felt that she had never been so identified in her heart, what did she say? 'Women are weak, mothers are strong', it seems that it is really not a deception, she broke Ji'er's hand hard, and looked at the nurse seriously, "This palace is the queen, how can you retreat at will!?" Ji'er, you obediently hide silently, don't make more trouble with your father! β
Several palace people came up together and pulled Ji'er away in a cry, Shi Yueran took the handkerchief and gently pressed her eyes, then walked to the side of the table, and couldn't help but gently grab Shen Mi's clothes: "Your Majesty, it's ...... outside."
The voice was getting closer and closer, and Qingzhou had already led a group of Yu Linwei out to fight, but she couldn't tell who had the upper hand. Shen Mi coughed lightly, gently patted the back of the woman's white hand, and said comfortingly: "Yue'er, you are stronger than I imagined." β
"But the thieves have all brought in with troops...... "What's the use of being strong?"
Shen Mi didn't know that the thieves had already entered the imperial city, and there was a powerful Tang concubine in the city, and if she took her edict, what else could the rebels not reach?
Then the two of them said no more, but sat quietly at the table and waited, and after a while, a few noises suddenly sounded from the window of one part of the palace, and at the same time, the door was kicked open from the outsideβ
"Emperor, it's like this outside, and you can still sit back and relax so when you arrive," it was Concubine Tang who came in.
Today's concubine specially wore a gorgeous dress, the nine-colored dress was extremely graceful, the phoenix crown on her head was a pearl, and the makeup was much grander than on weekdays, I saw her walking in from outside with a shelf, and the palace people behind her silently hung their heads to help pick up the hem of their clothes, and the whole person had a domineering momentum, raising his head high, and looking at the lonely two people condescendingly.
Seeing that there was no subordinate beside the two, Concubine Tang couldn't help frowning, and said contemptuously: "Tsk, the dignified Son of Heaven and the Mother of the Country, it's just that there is a big mess in the palace, and there is not a single loyal dog?" β
Shen Mi didn't say a word, still sitting calmly and writing in front of the table, and never raised his head from beginning to end. Shi Yueran panicked in her heart, but she felt angry - she didn't know why this was the case from beginning to end, Shen Mi and Shi Qingqian had never told her a penny, but now she saw it completely clearly, and couldn't help but grit her back molars and scolded: "You dare to force the palace!?" β
"Why wouldn't I dare!"
Concubine Tang's face was pale, her eyes shot a murderous light, and after that, she returned to her contemptuous appearance, paced to the treasure of Baibaoge, and gently touched the jade maid on it with her hand with fake nails, and a strange smile appeared on her lips, "This nominal concubine is tired of mourning." β
"If there is no emperor, who still respects you as a concubine!?" Shi Yueran only felt unreasonable.
"Huh, respect me?" Concubine Tang said with a smile, "Your precious emperor helped the mourning family up, but he just wanted the mourning family to be a nominal position, which seems to be beautiful, but in fact how unsightly is it?" 'Princess'? Hum...... I'm so funny when I say it! Since ancient times, there has only been a queen mother, no concubine! β
Shi Yueran was stunned, and suddenly remembered that a long time ago, the court wanted to canonize Concubine Tang as the queen mother, and at that time Shen Mi refused, saying that she had her own biological mother, and the concubine could only be the concubine. She didn't expect this incident to make Concubine Tang hold such a grudge...... Only then did she realize how greedy the people in the palace were, which made her feel a chill down her spine.
Without waiting for everyone to speak, a few more people walked in outside the door, Shi Yueran looked up, only to find that the people who came were actually King Ning and Princess Ning in gorgeous clothes, and the two of them broke in with the forbidden army holding a sharp blade behind them, with the same contempt on their faces.
"You ...... too" She was stunned, turned her head and looked at Concubine Tang again, "If there is no emperor, you won't even have to sit on the throne of the concubine!" Could it be that King Ning is pointing to what position you have sealed? β
"I can rest easy."
Once King Ning succeeds to the throne, he is a meritorious person who helped the new emperor create the foundation of Wandai, what if he is not a concubine? She has many famous, powerful and dignified positions to choose from, and compared to her current disrespectful position, she is naturally more exciting to hold power!
Moreover...... Shen Mi herself has never been herself, she is resentful in her heart, and she hates so much that she can't drag him off the seat!
King Ning, who came in, walked to the table with a big grin, propped his hands on the desk, watched Shen Mi write, and couldn't help but smile: "Your Majesty, it's time like this, quickly take out the jade seal of the country and write down an edict." β
"He Yuxi, what is the edict?" Shen Mi finally raised his head, hooked his lips and smiled, the previous haggard was swept away, but it reached an aura that should not be underestimated, "I am not dead yet, and when I am not dead, what will I write an edict?" β
"Not dead, it's been a few days!" A trace of surprise flashed in King Ning's eyes, but he still said so, but after speaking, he felt that something was wrong, Shen Mi's eyes were not dirty at all, although the previous injury made him emaciated, but his eyes were extremely resolute, and he couldn't help frowning, "You...... Didn't take any medicine!? β
Concubine Tang and Princess Ning were stunned and looked at Shen Milai.
The person who was sitting quietly in his seat, who was supposed to have a headache and coughing constantly, was surprisingly energetic, like a person who was dying?
Shen Mi raised his eyes, stretched out his hand and pointed to the little pestle in front of him, "King Ning, sit down and talk." β
"Where is the jade seal!?" King Ning gritted his teeth and asked sharply.
thought that everything was under his control, but he didn't want Shen Mi to find out the problem in the meal early, and he found out about this...... It shows that they have long been aware of their rebellious intentions, and they have never broken it, which can only show that this Shen Mi is fearless! King Ning's heart became more and more anxious, where did he still have the heart to sit down and talk.
Shen Mi just stretched his waist lazily and said, "I knew that today, how could I leave the jade seal in my hand?" Ning Wangzhen is still a three-year-old child, and he will only be stupidly obedient!? β
"King Ning, this ......" Concubine Tang took a step forward, a little more flustered under her eyebrows.
"If it's not by your side, it's for someone else?" King Ning sneered, and suddenly as if he wanted to open his mouth, his eyes lit up, and he said to the dark place on the side, "Perhaps...... It is in the Yanwang Mansion. β
