Chapter 479: The Queen Mother is frustrated
The chamberlain conveyed the holy message to King Ning, and hurried back to the palace to resume his life.
The emperor sat on the throne, as if he had woken up from the storm and was watching the twists and turns in front of him.
Feng Shun walked into the main hall with the attendants.
"Your Majesty," Feng Shun said in a low voice, "the case has been handled." ”
As if he hadn't heard, the emperor picked up his pen and quickly wrote on the fold.
The chamberlain bowed down and replied: "Lord Song is in Zhang's house...... Found poison, but ...... Those medicines were destroyed by Uncle Guo......" said Zhang Yuci about being fed poison.
Hearing this, the emperor's eyes were slightly deep, he knew that Song Chengxuan was a sharp blade, but he didn't expect Song Chengxuan to use such a method, but it was okay to avoid dealing with the Queen Mother.
The chamberlain continued: "The prince and the eldest princess of Jiashan are both there, waiting for Uncle Guo's poisonous hair, and the slave maid did not enter the house to check on Uncle Guo's situation, but I heard that ...... The poison has worked. ”
The emperor's pen was stunned, leaving a red on the fold.
The Tai Hospital has compared the pulse case of King Jingjun and the pulse case of Empress Yu together, and found many similarities, and it is obvious that the matter of poison is not without basis.
The emperor suddenly felt a little disturbed in his heart, remembering the appearance of Empress Yu when she was just sick, he was also concerned about her condition, hoping that she would get better, it turned out that as early as that time, he was played with by the Zhang family in the palm of his hand, thinking of this, he added a little hatred in his heart.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here." The chamberlain entered the door to pray.
The emperor didn't speak, and the empress dowager outside the hall had already stepped into the imperial study.
"Emperor," the Empress Dowager looked as calm as ever, "I heard that something happened to the Zhang family, what happened?" ”
Queen Yu vigorously inspected the palace people, she was not particularly worried, and the Zhang family was also deep-rooted, and would not shake the foundation because of a little trouble.
No matter what the situation, she will think of a way to deal with it, after all, she is the queen mother, on the surface she has retired to Cining Palace, there are still her people in the court, the case is in the court, naturally someone will speak up for the Zhang family, and the emperor will have to weigh the pros and cons at that time, and he can't act arbitrarily......
Until the news came.
The eldest princess of Jiashan sent King An's secret letter into the palace.
The Queen Mother immediately felt the danger, she couldn't wait any longer, after coming out of Cining Palace, she felt more and more that something was wrong, the Zhang family was in danger, Zhang Yuci should try her best to ask for help, but now it was too quiet, so quiet that people felt panicked.
Could it be that Zhang Yuci has no way to send her a letter?
The emperor picked up the secret letter from the table and handed it to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother should take a look at this first." ”
The Queen Mother opened the secret letter and immediately looked at it, her face gradually became ugly, and the eldest princess of Jiashan actually hid such a secret letter.
A hint of murder flashed in the queen mother's eyes, the eldest princess of Jiashan pretended to be in front of her, and she had another plan in her heart, she knew that she should marry Jiashan far away, and she should not be soft-hearted to match Jiashan with a weak temperament.
"Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts," the Queen Mother's voice was gloomy, "Keeping these things is to deal with the emperor, and the emperor can't be tolerated." ”
The Queen Mother pinched the secret letter tightly, and walked a few steps quickly to the lamp to light the letter.
"Queen Mother, be careful," the emperor's cold voice came, "The content of that secret letter, many people in the Qi royal family have already read it, and the queen mother will burn it like this, which will make people think that we are weak-hearted, which is not good for the reputation of our father, but my father is the martial emperor of our Great Zhou, with great military achievements and a great reputation, and it is impossible to do anything to mutilate siblings." ”
The Empress Dowager's hand couldn't help but tremble, and it was the first time for the emperor to speak to her in such a tone.
"Feng Shun," the emperor said, "take the secret letter in the queen mother's hand." ”
Feng Shun bowed down and walked forward quickly.
The queen mother stared at the emperor with a pair of phoenix eyes, and the emperor's face standing not far away was full of majesty, and the golden dragon on the dragon robe opened its teeth and claws as if it was about to pounce on her.
Today's emperor is very different, like a monarch who rules the world.
The bad premonition in the queen mother's heart deepened, and she finally let go of her hand and returned the secret letter to Feng Shun: "What is the emperor going to do?" ”
The emperor said: "Naturally, we must find out and give the world a truth." ”
The Queen Mother frowned: "How to check?" So many years have passed, and the former emperor and King An are no longer in the world, so who to ask for verification. ”
The emperor did not answer the Queen Mother's words, but said coldly: "Does the Queen Mother know Zhenhua?" Did Zhenhua refine a poison, after people took it, it was like they were seriously ill, Lang Zhong couldn't see anything strange from the pulse, was King Jingjun poisoned by this medicine? ”
The Queen Mother's expression froze: "The mourning family knows Zhenhua, but they don't know this medicine." ”
The emperor nodded: "I also think about it like this, if the queen mother knows, she will never let my uncle do such a thing." ”
The Queen Mother could no longer hide the panic in her heart: "What does the emperor mean by this?" ”
"I asked people to investigate this case, but I didn't expect this matter to be related to Uncle Guo, when Song Panwei was broken into the city, King An died, and King Jingjun found that the clues were also poisoned, all of which are inseparable from Uncle Guo," the emperor's face was full of complicated expressions, but his voice was cold, "Queen Mother, Uncle Guo has done so many wrong things, how should I deal with the Zhang family?" ”
The Queen Mother only felt a thunderbolt explode in her ears, and her mind was blank, and it took a while to come back to her senses: "Emperor, what did you say?" ”
The emperor said lightly: "Uncle Guo has already eaten the poison left by Zhenhua, and he wants to prove his innocence with this, but it's a pity...... I didn't get through the tricks, and I already started to poison it. ”
The Queen Mother only felt that her feet were soft, and she stumbled a few steps and almost fell to the ground, thanks to the palace people around her who stepped forward to help.
"Mother, Queen Mother."
The palace people helped the Queen Mother to the chair.
The Queen Mother's eyes widened, and her ears kept echoing what the emperor said, Zhang Yuci took the poison, the Queen Mother's hands kept trembling, there was no blood on her face, she looked at the emperor in disbelief: "How can you do this...... You...... You forgot...... Who are these years...... Loyal to you, your mother and concubine went early, and the mourning family brought you up with their own hands, although you and I are not biological mothers and sons, what is the difference between them and biological children, Zhang Yuci has no merit and hard work, how can you ......"
"The queen mother has exceeded the rules," the emperor's expression became more majestic, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but the queen mother broke into the imperial study, and now she is interceding for her uncle, if people know, the Zhang family may add another crime."
Zhang Yuci, as the uncle of the country, has made a lot of contributions to the establishment of the court, and I have always relied on him and the Zhang family, but today's affairs involve the former emperor and King An, and the royal family, civil and military officials are all looking at me, I am the son of heaven, I can't just care about personal feelings, and I will be questioned for shielding my relatives. ”
The Queen Mother couldn't help but shake her head, she still couldn't believe it, the emperor dealt with Zhang Yuci like this: "Where is Zhang Yuci, the emperor passed him into the palace, and the mourning family wants to ask him in person if he really did those things." ”
The emperor accentuated his tone: "Uncle Guo is guilty of a crime, and he can't enter the palace to see him, the queen mother just rest assured, I won't let people frame the Zhang family." ”
The Queen Mother stared at the emperor tightly, full of disappointment, Zhang Yuci's poisoning will soon be known to everyone, no one will speak for a dying person, on the contrary, the wall will fall down and everyone will push, someone will definitely take the opportunity to fall into the well.
The Queen Mother's voice was hoarse: "Emperor, you can't be like this." ”
The emperor took a few steps forward, took the tea bowl from the hand of the chamberlain, and presented it to the queen mother with his own hands: "A few days ago, the queen mother came to see her son because of Huijing's case, and the queen mother once said a sentence, and the son has always remembered it.
The queen mother said: You are the emperor, for the sake of the Great Zhou Dynasty, as long as you can make the political situation stable, you can't do anything too much.
The queen mother now tells her son, what should the son do? ”
The Queen Mother looked at the tea bowl in front of her, the whole person was like falling into an ice cellar, she gritted her teeth stubbornly, as if as long as she relaxed, she would make the sound of her teeth colliding.
"The queen mother should go and see Empress Yu," the emperor said, "I pity Empress Yu, I have been poisoned for so many years, but I have always thought that she was pretending to be sick, I am sorry for her and the Yu family, and I am still thinking about how to compensate the Yu family." ”
The hairs on the back of the queen mother's neck stood on end, and the emperor was threatening her.
