State Guesthouse, in a quiet room deep in the backyard.

Zhu ignored the look of anger, if it weren't for the fact that this was a state guesthouse, he was afraid that the wall would have ears, he couldn't help but be angry.

Zhu Wuzhi held back his anger and asked in a low voice, "Karasuma, didn't I ask you to suspend your plan?" Why do you still kidnap the Queen Mother? It's okay to kidnap the Queen Mother, how did you catch Duan Tianya and Haitang last night, and now they fall into the hands of Dongchang, the consequences are unimaginable, do you make me very passive like this? ”

"If you don't make some sacrifices, how can you gain the emperor's trust?" Yue Buqun's pretending Karasuma smiled coldly, "As for the secret agents under you, they are too vulnerable, and it is useless to keep this kind of waste." It's just right to win people's trust. In this way, Cao Zhengchun will not doubt me. Moreover, after this incident, the emperor will definitely appease us and summon the princess to the palace. As long as you can get close to the emperor, what is it to sacrifice a few people? ”

Zhu ignored and was silent, and his heart was moved. Karasuma is right, his ultimate goal is to get close to the emperor, as long as he can get close to the emperor and succeed in assassinating the emperor, what is it to sacrifice a few people by some means? Not to mention Duan Tianya, even if all the four secret agents sacrificed, it was worth it.

But are things really that easy? Shenhou was also a little skeptical, and hesitated: "But how to solve the problem of the Queen Mother?" The emperor just suspected that you had kidnapped the Queen Mother, so he asked me to send someone to investigate. Therefore, the emperor does not fully trust you at all! ”

"I did a scene last night to make the Queen Mother think that I saved her. originally wanted to use this to bring the queen mother closer, as long as the queen mother nodded, were you afraid that the emperor would not agree? I didn't expect you to send Duan Tianya those two wastes, I thought about it just right, and sent a big gift to Dongchang to eliminate Cao Zhengchun's vigilance. In this way, no one will doubt our relationship. Karasuma sneered.

Zhu ignored his face, nodded slightly, and whispered, "I hope so!" ”

During this time, all kinds of information in the rivers and lakes had reached his hands, and Zhu Wuzhi also knew about the storms that the emperor had set off in the rivers and lakes during this time, and knew that the emperor was suspicious of him. Therefore, when the emperor tidies up the martial arts, he will definitely tidy up the court and weaken his power. In this way, he had no other way but to rebel.

However, the emperor was born with great righteousness, and if he rebelled, he would not be able to get the support of the world at all. Even if the palace change is successful, when the princes of all walks of life in the world will be the king of Beijing, Tianjin, and Qinwang, and the Ming Dynasty will be in the midst of war.

Zhu ignored the need for the throne, but did not want a country riddled with holes.

Therefore, there are two best ways, one is to force the emperor to concede. However, now that the emperor is already a great master and master, how can he be young and vigorous and higher than the sky? Moreover, after dominating the entire rivers and lakes, the West Factory and the East Factory joined forces, and they were not weak against the Dragon Guardian Villa.

The second way is that the emperor dies.

If the emperor dies and has no heirs, then it is logical for Zhu to ignore as the emperor's uncle, as the younger brother of the first emperor, and the elder brother and brother. At that time, with the information mastered by the Dragon Guarding Villa, all the princes and ministers, civil ministers and military generals will have a handle in their hands, who dares to be disobedient? Who would oppose him?

Therefore, Karasuma's words went to Zhu Ignorance's heart. As long as the emperor can be killed, all the sacrifices are worth it. It's just a righteous son, and when you become an emperor in the future, are you still worried about having no son?

At this moment, a shout suddenly came to mind outside the door: "Holy Decree!" ”

Zhu Ignore and Karasuma glanced at each other, Zhu Ignore shook his head, not knowing what it was, the two didn't dare to wait for a long time, and hurriedly went out to greet them.

The person who announced the decree outside the door was not a eunuch, but the secretary of the Ministry of Rites himself.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, Zhao said: Princess Izumo Kunixiu is quiet and gentle, beautiful and light, graceful and quiet, cautious, and soft, deeply comforting. Immediately canonized as the Ming concubine, in order to make the two countries good, Qin this! ”

actually sealed the concubine! Zhu ignored and shook slightly. It seems that Karasuma was really right, and the Queen Mother exerted her strength. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's nod, how could the emperor so quickly make Princess Lixiu his concubine?

The two of them were in a daze, but they heard the Ministry of Rites Shangshu laugh and say, "Shenhou, Karasuma Messenger, where is Princess Lixiu?" Let her come out and take the order! ”

There was silence in the room, and there was no movement!

Zhu Wuzhi frowned.

Yue Buqun's pretended Karasuma also changed slightly, and he smiled: "The princess was frightened last night, and she is not well yet, let me take this holy decree on my behalf!" ”

It doesn't matter if it's a holy decree to canonize a concubine than a letter to make friends with the Izumo Kingdom, as for Princess Lixiu, it's just a marriage item, and it's the same with the envoy receiving the holy decree.

was about to nod, but heard a voice in the room: "Don't bother, I'll take this holy decree!" ”

A red figure came out, veiled, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but the temperament on his body was peerless, which made people's eyes brighten.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu admired in his heart, but it was a pity that the other party was just a princess of a small country in Izumo, otherwise this temperament, after being canonized, would be worthy of the mother in the world.

"Princess Lixiu" Ying Ying stepped forward, and after receiving the holy decree, she said: "My lord, please go back, I will prepare and enter the palace tonight!" ”

"That's good, don't let the emperor wait!" The Ministry of Rites Shangshu said with a smile. In his opinion, the emperor obviously took a fancy to Li Xiu and was impatient to be canonized as a concubine, so naturally he couldn't wait for a long time.

"Two, I'm going back to hand over to the emperor and say goodbye!" The Ministry of Rites arched his hand.

Seeing the other party walking away, "Karasuma" showed a sneer, and the smugness on his face couldn't be concealed, and said, "I'll just say it, everything is in my calculations." Tonight, just wait for our good news. When the assassination of the Emperor is successful, I will send out a flare. When the time comes, you have to come as fast as you can. We don't want to fall victim to you! "In the end, with a hint of caution.

After all, once the emperor died, the guards of the entire palace must be thunderous rage, and it was impossible for Karasuma and Princess Toshihide to escape from the palace. He can only wait for him to enter the palace to have a chance of survival.

Zhu nodded without hesitation, knowing that the opportunity could not be missed. Everything has to be settled before the ministers react.

Seeing Zhu ignore and walk away, Karasuma showed a strange smile on his face, pushed open the door, and walked in.

In the room, in addition to Li Xiu, who was undefeated in the east, there was one more person.

"Miss Shangguan, I didn't lie to you. Your father-in-law, who is loyal on the surface, is actually a great traitor who plots to usurp the throne. Whether to be a traitor who is spurned by everyone after his death, or to serve the country loyally and become an official, how to choose, what to do, it depends on you! Yue Buqun's disguised Karasuma smiled.

Shangguan Haitang's face was gloomy, as if he had lost his soul.

At this moment, her faith collapsed.

For a long time, her father-in-law was the person she admired the most, but now she found that her role model turned out to be such a traitor and villain. It crushed her heart all at once.

After a long time, Shangguan Haitang's gaze gradually became firm, and said, "I promise you, I will destroy the handles of the various ministers in the hands of the Dragon Guardian Villa, and I can also hand over all the intelligence systems...... I hope that the emperor can let his father-in-law have a way to live, even if he is under house arrest for life, and let him be a prince who eats and waits for death! ”

In the end, she whispered to herself in a voice that only she could hear: "Father-in-law, you have taught us to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism since childhood. I'm sorry! ”
