Chapter 45: The Three-Legged Cat Kung Fu is Deep
When the emperor and Prince Qing rushed to the palace, the ministers gathered together and discussed. He was obviously surprised when he saw the emperor and the prince. The loyal ministers were overjoyed, and the sanctimonious ones also knelt down and hurriedly saluted, telling about what had happened in the palace in recent days, such as how Concubine Zhen Niangniang used her power to bully loyal ministers, etc., and some people hurried to report the news, but they were all killed by the emperor's guards one by one.
There was a vision in the sky, and auspicious clouds resurfaced, could it be that the queen and the child did not have an accident.
"Aiqing, is the queen safe and sound......" the emperor asked anxiously.
The emperor doesn't have to worry, everything is fine with the queen and the child, but in the past few days, the prime minister and Concubine Zhen have taken advantage of your absence to prevent the rest of the people from entering and leaving the queen's bedroom, even the maids around the queen are no exception. The ministers were unable to protect the queen, and the messengers sent were intercepted by the prime minister, so they could only hope for your arrival and hope that Your Majesty would surrender.
"So where are the prime minister and Concubine Zhen?"
Concubine Zhen and the prime minister have been staying in the queen's bedroom and have never left.
Qing Wang Ye listened to the order.
"The minister is here."
"I order you to mobilize all the Imperial Guards to surround the entire palace, and I will get rid of these rebels and thieves today."
"The minister commands."
"Prime Minister, the big thing is not good, Prince Qing has surrounded the queen's bedroom with a large number of royal forest troops, what should I do now." The prime minister's cronies hurriedly talked about the situation outside.
"That's not right! Do you see clearly that it is King Qing? It will take at least some time for them to return from a private visit, and why they came at this time is because they have leaked the news. Cheng Xiang thought about it for a while.
"Grandma, what should I do now? We will be punished by the Nine Clans, and my daughter doesn't want to die of old age in the cold palace. Concubine Zhen cried and said to the prime minister.
"Don't panic, I heard that the emperor and the queen are deeply affectionate, as long as we have the queen in our hands, the emperor will not dare to do anything to us, don't worry, see it as a father." As he spoke, the prime minister took a dagger and gradually approached the queen. At this time, Princess He Tan fell from the beam of the house, blocking the prime minister's way.
"What a bold prime minister, he dares to murder the queen and the emperor's heir, and if you don't tie your hands, the emperor may spare your life......"
"If you still want to protect the queen with the princess's three-legged cat's kung fu, let's ask for more blessings and protect yourself first." The prime minister said contemptuously.
Princess He Tan laughed and said: "Prime Minister, you only know that I am not good at kung fu, but you forgot that I am familiar with military books, at that time my father praised me in front of you, your old man will not forget it so quickly, today I will let you see the power of this princess, and tell you one thing by the way, sometimes people need not force, but wisdom." β
Listen to the order of the princess, arrest the rebellious minister Wen's father and daughter, escort them to the prison, and wait for the emperor to return to the court.
"Hahaha, princess, you are too naΓ―ve, you are my people inside and out, how can you follow your orders."
"Really? Prime Minister, never be too confident, otherwise you don't know how to die. β
After a while, more than 20 royal guards appeared in the queen's room, each wearing weapons, and surrounded the prime minister and Concubine Zhen. But the old thing is not a vegetarian, his martial arts are not so weak, the three or five royal forest soldiers were beaten down, it seems that this princess still wants to try my master's peerless martial arts herself.
"Princess, I advise you not to be tough, and obediently lay down your weapons, maybe I will be kind and spare your life."
"Phew, old thing, this princess doesn't need it, let you try my power." The prime minister didn't take any advantage in the process of fighting, it seems that he underestimated this girl, and she hasn't seen her for a few years, and her kung fu has grown a lot.
"Come on, take the prime minister and Concubine Zhen down."
"Hahahaha. I have been shrewd all my life, and I have deliberately ascended to the throne below one person and above ten thousand, but today I am ruined on the body of a little girl, retribution! If you want to kill, you have to listen to it. β
"Shout, it's quite backbone, but I don't care how to die, but I'll deal with Concubine Zhen! Before you die, I want to tell you a good thing, the queen's miscarriage was made up by me......"
"You ......"
"Hold on."
"Yes." Several royal forest soldiers escorted the prime minister out of the queen's bedroom, as for the flower-like concubine Zhen, of course, she was slapped a few times first, and she laughed heartily with Princess Tan, who told you to dare to bully the imperial sister-in-law, and Concubine Zhen screamed in pain.
"Princess, I know it's wrong, please let me go!" Putting on a weak look, how could she not pity the fragrance and cherish the jade and Chen, but this kind of person wasted her kindness to her in the past.
"Let you go, then why don't you let go of the imperial sister-in-law and the unborn child, a cheap person like you should be temporarily executed, it's hard to understand the hatred in my heart." He angrily pulled out his sword and stabbed at Concubine Zhen.
"Hechen, I seem to be about to give birth, and my stomach hurts." The queen hurriedly called out and said.
"If you are lucky, send someone to inform the emperor quickly, and send the prisoner Concubine Zhen into the cold palace and keep her under strict supervision, no one is allowed to visit without my order."
Everyone did things according to the orders of the peace in an orderly manner. Seeing this scene, Prince Qing couldn't help but wonder a little, shouldn't he be arresting the rebellious ministers and thieves? How did it all get solved......
"Why are you reckless, who is that girl inside? There is such a great power to mobilize the Royal Guards. β
"Qing Wang Ye is auspicious, the queen is about to give birth, we will be so reckless, and I hope that the prince will forgive his sins." The minion who bumped into King Qing was crawling in the tunnel.
"Who's that woman?"
"Princess Hexi."
"Go down, it's none of your business. All the royal guards obeyed the order, protected the queen's safety, blocked the palace gates, and did not make any mistakes, otherwise they would come to see them. β
"Yes."
He Tan ran out after hearing the voice, "Hey, who are you?" How can you enter the queen's bedroom at will, and take the Imperial Forest Army with you, it shouldn't be the prime minister's comrade? Princess He Tan looked up and down King Qing angrily.
"You're Princess Hechen!"
"It's Princess Ben."
Qing Wang Ye saluted, just now a little disrespectful, did not recognize the princess, I hope the princess forgives, I am just acting on the emperor's dictation.
A maid beside He Tan whispered: "He is the emperor who is the emperor himself." β
"Lord Qing? Why haven't I heard of when my father had a son named Qing Wangye, you shouldn't be the son born to the people during your father's private visit to Weifu! The look of surprise made the Guards in the know break it.
"Princess, he is not an illegitimate child, he is the emperor's sworn brother, you have not been in the palace since you were a child, naturally you rarely know about Prince Qing, or ...... The rest of the Imperial Forest Army didn't say more, because the emperor had ordered not to reveal the identity of his little prince in the Northern Desert, otherwise it would cause death. β
"What's more, hurry up and explain it to this princess." He was domineering and questioned, but was interrupted by the sound of crying.
