Chapter 355: Take Control of the Government
"What do you mean by that?" The queen asked lightly, with a hint of laziness in her expression, as if she was not interested.
For Shen Lanyue, she was always a little defensive in her heart, and she didn't dare to believe it easily.
What's more, forging a holy decree is not a trivial matter, and if it is discovered, it is a great crime to be killed. Although what the queen is doing now is not a simple matter, the ministers above the court are complaining, but because there is no evidence, they can only bear it silently.
Thinking of this, the queen's eyes looking at Shen Lanyue were a little inquisitive.
After receiving the queen's scrutiny of the gaze, Shen Lanyue lowered her eyebrows slightly, looking very well-behaved and harmless, "As long as the queen mother forges a holy decree that the emperor will exercise the right to hand over to you, it will be written in black and white, and they will not be allowed to believe it." ”
"Then how do you think this decree should be forged?" The queen continued to ask. Although he deliberately covered it up, there was still a trace of interest in his eyes.
In fact, as early as when she was just in control of the palace, the queen wanted to forge the holy decree, after all, if the name is not right, it is difficult to spread her power.
She searched for a long time in the emperor's bedroom and study, but she never saw the shadow of the jade seal. The matter was put on hold.
"The slave knows that Niangniang has been worried about the jade seal recently, and the slave has met a master of counterfeiting outside the palace, and everything that comes out of his hands will make it difficult for the world to distinguish between the real and the fake, and the queen can find him to help forge the jade seal."
Shen Lanyue's voice was always unhurried, and there was an inexplicable feeling of calming people's hearts.
"As long as Niangniang can hold the exercise of power in her hands, then those courtiers must obey if they obey, and they must obey if they don't obey."
And this is exactly what the queen has always wanted to see.
When Shen Lanyue's words fell, the interest in the queen's eyes was no longer hidden, and with vigorous ambition gushing out.
If she really follows what Shen Lanyue said, after mastering the exercise of power, she can completely replace the emperor and become the lord of the world in the name of righteousness.
The queen curled the corners of her lips slightly, "Since you mentioned this matter, then the palace will be handled by you." If you do it well, this palace will naturally not treat you badly. ”
"The slave obeys." Shen Lanyue hurriedly kowtowed.
There is no surprise in this.
The queen didn't believe her, so she just wanted to tie the two of them to a rope, one for glory and one for loss.
"If there is nothing else, go now." The queen waved her hand, her expression showing a little tiredness.
When Shen Lanyue heard this, she stood up and left the queen's bedroom lightly.
After she came out, the palace maids and eunuchs who had been waiting outside hurriedly returned to the palace again. The queen lay on the soft collapse again, squinting and pretending to sleep, and the palace maid picked up the fan and continued to help fan the wind.
The weather has been too hot these days, and between entering and leaving, the body will be stained with layers of sweat, wet and sticky to the body.
Shen Lanyue sighed and looked up at the scorching sun in the sky. I don't know when this eventful summer day will pass.
After getting the emperor's previous decree from the queen, Shen Lanyue went directly out of the palace and went to find the skilled craftsman and asked him to help make the jade seal. Book every day
After the skilled craftsman knew Shen Lanyue's needs, he only glanced at Shen Lanyue lightly, and did not ask anything more.
"Ten thousand taels."
Hearing this, Shen Lanyue's smile froze directly on her lips, this is a proper lion opened his mouth, "Can't it be cheaper?" ”
"Then you can find someone else." As he spoke, he was going to drive Shen Lanyue out.
Seeing this, Shen Lanyue's heart was horizontal, 10,000 taels would be 10,000 taels. She nodded in agreement, and painlessly took out a silver ticket from her bosom and slapped it in the hand of the skilled craftsman.
After the money was in place, the skilled craftsman turned around and went to the back kitchen to get the radish that was prepared for beef stew one night, and carefully carved it on the jade seal on the holy decree brought by Shen Lanyue.
Speaking of which, the courage of this skilled craftsman is also big enough, he has been up and down in this line for many years, and he has seen all kinds of strange and strange customers, as long as the price is in place, he dares to do it.
Two hours later, the forged radish jade seal appeared in front of Shen Lanyue's eyes, and it was really the same as the seal on the holy decree.
Shen Lanyue took the seal, returned to the palace in a depressed mood, and handed over the jade seal to the queen.
"The slave maid is here, first of all, I want to congratulate the mother on the completion of the plan." Shen Lanyue smiled at the corner of her lips.
The queen took the jade seal and carefully probed it, and the pleasure on her face could not be concealed at all, and there was a rare sense of approval in her eyes when she looked at Shen Lanyue.
"You've done a good job in this matter, and you can tell me what reward you want." The queen said.
"It is the blessing of the slave to be able to solve problems for the mother, and the slave only hopes that the mother will not forget the slave after the big thing is done." Shen Lanyue followed the queen's words and said hearty words.
Sure enough, hearing Shen Lanyue's words, the smile on the queen's face deepened a little.
She was not stingy, and rewarded Shen Lanyue with a lot of good things before sending people back.
With this thing, the matter of forging the holy decree was put on the agenda by the queen. She moved quickly, as if she couldn't wait after a long time of planning.
The next morning, the forged decree was promulgated in the court, and those old ministers who had been opposing the queen were the first to stand up and not believe it.
But when he touched the jade seal on the holy decree, he had to believe that this matter was true, and in the end he could only stare at the queen with angry eyes.
Seeing this, the queen hooked the corners of her lips with satisfaction, "The holy decree must have been read by all of you Aiqing just now, if you have any objections, you can mention it now, if not, then retreat." ”
The hall was quiet, and the courtiers who had ten words waiting to refute as long as she said one sentence in the past were completely shut up this time.
Thinking of this, the queen's mood couldn't help but be a little happier, and even when she thought of Shen Lanyue, she felt a lot more comfortable.
"Then let's retreat." The queen slowly spat out this sentence from her mouth.
The eunuch's shrill voice rang out, and the queen stood up and returned to the harem through the beaded curtain that stood between her and the courtiers.
Before leaving, the queen still couldn't help but glance back at the bead curtain, sooner or later, she would completely remove this barrier and sit in the position that symbolized the highest power. And this civil and military minister of the Manchu Dynasty can only listen to her words, not because of the old immortal emperor!
