Chapter Seventy-Four: A Shock

Cui Zheng stood in front of the dragon couch and looked at the emperor.

The emperor was no longer sitting on the piano as before, leaning on the dragon couch, his pale face, bright red blood, no one would think that he was sleeping, thinking about a new song.....

The eunuchs knelt on the ground, and the eunuchs also knelt on the ground, and they did not enter the hall again before the arrival of Cui Zheng's officials.

"What are you waiting for!" An official's voice trembled and shouted, "Come and see Your Majesty!" Go and heal Your Majesty! ”

Only then did the imperial physicians get up and stumble up to surround the emperor.....

Cui Zheng knew what they were waiting for, ordinary people knew that the emperor was dead at a glance, and the imperial doctors knew even better.

The emperor has died.

In such a world-shattering matter, without the presence of officials, the imperial doctors would not have set foot in the death.

No one in the entire Great Xia thought about the day the emperor died, although the emperor was already very old, Cui Zheng looked at the emperor's face, this face was like a dried flower, when did Your Majesty become so old? Cui Zheng didn't recognize the emperor anymore.

"Xiangye." After a few imperial doctors looked at it randomly, they leaned over and choked on the ground, "Your Majesty, it's over." ”

Although they had already guessed it, the whole hall was in an uproar when they heard the crying and shouting that was instantly on their knees.

Cui Zheng shouted to stop the uproar.

"How did Your Majesty die?" He shouted.

Although the emperor is very old, he sings, dances, drinks, and can swim in the lake of the Begonia Palace for a day, and there is the aroma of flowers in the palace, the fat powder of women, the aroma of wine and delicacies, and there is never the taste of medicine.

During the New Year's holidays, the prince was rarely carried out of the East Palace to participate in the banquet and sat with the emperor, who was more like a son.

It is impossible for the emperor to die of illness, but now the emperor is better to die of illness.

The imperial doctors knelt on the ground and trembled like chaff: "Your Majesty, yes, poisoned." ”

There was dead silence in the hall.

The sound of banging heads on the ground sounded immediately.

"We don't know." The eunuchs knelt on the ground, crying and shouting, and fainted directly, "Your Majesty rarely lets us serve by our side." ”

"Do you know it, it's not you who have the final say." An official shouted angrily, "There will be an inquiry by the Criminal Division." ”

Couldn't ask anything, Cui Zheng looked at the medicine bowl and wine glass rolling down the dragon couch, the scattered brownish red juice, he walked over and leaned over and stretched out his hand to dip it, and his fingers were red.

He was very familiar with this, and it was originally a unique beauty drunk in the palace that was originally going to be fed to Concubine Luo, and it was inevitable that some life-killing poisons were hidden in the palace.

Of course, the emperor's permission to hide these poisons privately, the eunuchs can get them, and the emperor can of course do them.

The cries, shouts, and inquiries in the hall were mixed.

“.... Your Majesty won't let us be around. ”

“.... We can only come here if we deliver food and medicine. ”

“.... There are no suspicious people approaching this Begonia Palace...."

“.... Come and come, take them all, and take down all the people in the Begonia Palace. ”

Footsteps are chaotic outward and inward.

"That's it!" Cui Zheng said, the chaos in the hall overshadowed his voice, and he raised his voice, "Okay!" ”

The hall was quiet, and all eyes looked over, Cui Zheng knelt in front of the dragon couch and looked at the emperor with his back to them.

"Your Majesty followed the concubine by himself." He said.

The current imperial palace is no longer the power of the whole sea, but under his control, he can be sure that the people who remain with the emperor now do not think and dare to kill the emperor.

The only one who can kill the emperor is the emperor himself.

Look at this glass of wine again to make it clearer.

He held the wine glass, looked at the bright red remaining in it, and the hand holding the wine glass burst out: "Your Majesty, for the sake of this woman, you have given up our subjects and the Great Xia." ”

He slammed his glass to the ground, shattering and splattering, sharp shards leaving blood spots on his face.

"Roche, woe to the country!"

The hall fell to its knees and whimpered.

.....

.....

The forbidden army surrounded the Begonia Palace, the eunuchs and eunuchs were also guarded, and the noise in the palace had dispersed, leaving only solemnity.

"Xiangye, please invite the prince into the palace." An official choked up and said, "The country cannot be without a king for a day." ”

Especially at this time.

Cui Zheng stood in front of the dragon couch, looking at the emperor who had been lying flat, the blood on his face was simply wiped away, but his clothes and hair were not changed and tidied up.

"You can't invite the prince into the palace as a king." He said, "The prince and Ankang Mountain are too deeply entangled with the Luo clan to convince the public. ”

Most of the concubines in the prince's womb were sent in by Luo, and the prince's daughters married Ankang Mountain.

"Then he is also His Majesty's crown prince, and the concubines and daughters are all outsiders, so they will give it up." An official said.

Cui Zheng turned to look at everyone: "The most important thing is that the prince is dying." ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, the prince's poor health was known throughout Daxia, and it was almost forgotten by everyone, when Ankang Mountain rebelled and raided the Luo family, the East Palace was also deliberately besieged by the generals, so everyone didn't know the news of the East Palace, and they didn't want to know.

The crown prince even wants to .....

"What then? This? There was a buzz in the hall.

Cui Zheng said: "The news of His Majesty's death will be concealed for the time being, and King Zhao will be invited to enter Beijing as soon as possible, and then the world will be announced when King Zhao enters Beijing." ”

King Zhao was also the person they had chosen, and there was a buzz in the hall.

"It's just, can you hide it for so long?" An official asked.

King Zhao is far away from the capital, and it will take some time to come and go.

"Your Majesty is not going to court in the first place." Cui Zheng said, "There will be no doubt that he will not appear in the world, and the imperial city is now guarded by our soldiers and horses, as long as we want, we can ......."

His words were interrupted by a commotion outside, the sound of footsteps, the sound of weapons and scolding, and the stinging of his eardrums.

"Stop!"

"Bold!"

"Hugh must go further, or we...."

Otherwise, it wouldn't be good, the closed palace door was knocked open, and a tall figure stood at the door surrounded by cold light.

"What are you doing?" Wu Ya'er asked.

There was a dead silence in the hall, and the officials stepped back, revealing Cui Zheng in front of them.

"You! How did you get in here! Cui Zheng was angry and annoyed, and his face was pale.

Wu Ya'er didn't answer him, he walked in, the long knife hanging on his waist collided with his long legs, and he came in without even pulling out the knife.

Layers of soldiers and horses, how could the high palace walls stop him, and half of the people in this palace died in his hands, and he accompanied the emperor in the palace for some time.

Although he is not in the palace, how can he hide from him what happened in the palace, and who can stop him if he wants to come in?

Cui Zheng had to admit this fact.

Wu Ya'er crossed the officials and stood silently in front of the dragon couch for a moment.

"You, you still forced Your Majesty to death." He said.

This crime is going to be remembered for 10,000 years, and the officials immediately shouted, refuting and questioning, angry, aggrieved, and excited, and their voices filled the hall.

Cui Zheng stopped drinking, there was no anger or questioning on his face, looking at Wu Ya'er's expression was a little complicated, although the word forced death is not good, but it is not the same as killing the emperor, which is a great crime nailed to the history books.

Wu Ya'er didn't frame them for killing the emperor, although he could have done the same.

"Your Majesty was killed by Roche." Cui Zheng said coldly, without waiting for Wu Ya'er to speak, and continued to speak, "Please Wudu guard the imperial city, the news of His Majesty's death cannot be spread, and it will be announced after King Zhao enters Beijing." ”

This is to cooperate with Wu Ya'er, ask him for help, hand over the imperial city to him, and the officials look at each other, and now it can only be like this.

Wu Ya'er did not accept or object, and her expression was a little thoughtful: "King Zhao? ”

You don't even know who King Zhao is with this dirt bun, right? Cui Zheng patiently explained the identity of King Zhao simply: "When His Majesty was held hostage by the whole sea before, he handed out a hand seal, and I asked people to bring it to King Zhao and invite him to enter Beijing, and then His Majesty was safe, King Zhao was loyal and filial to follow the rules of the king and did not come to the capital, but my people have been guarding King Zhao in Yizhou, and I should pick up ..... at this time."

Before he could finish his sentence, someone rushed in from outside, it was two guards carrying a man in ordinary clothes.

The man's legs were no longer able to walk, his body was covered in blood, and his head kept shaking as he walked, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Cui Zheng recognized this person at a glance and shouted Cui Cheng in surprise.

The officials came back to their senses, and Cui Cheng was Cui Zheng's nephew and was sent to Yizhou.

"Uncle!" Cui Cheng was startled by a shout, his face was also blurred with blood, and he tried hard to see the person in front of him, recognized it as Cui Zheng, and immediately shouted, "Go quickly, Ankang Mountain Bandit Army, besiege Yizhou!" Zhao Wang is in danger! ”

There was an instant uproar in the hall.

"How is that possible!"

"This thief!"

"Quick, save King Zhao."

With a shout, Cui Zheng turned around and grabbed Wu Ya'er: "Wujun, you quickly take someone to save King Zhao!" ”

Wu Ya'er walked past him and walked out of the hall, and Cui Zheng's hand immediately fell short.

"Wudu! Wudu! ”

The shouting and questioning sound was chaotic in his ears, and then fell behind him, and then became noisy and unclear, Wu Ya'er's footsteps were getting faster and faster, he didn't listen to Cui Zheng's words, and he didn't want to save King Zhao, when he heard that sentence when the Ankang Mountain Bandit Army besieged Yizhou, he was full of only one name, Mrs. Wu Shao.

His ears were buzzing, and his heart was beating like a drum.

She, she went to Dou County, and there was a rebellion in Dou County.

She, she borrowed the people to strengthen the army, and Ankang Mountain rebelled.

She borrowed 3,000 soldiers and horses to go to Yizhou, and Ankang Mountain besieged King Zhao.

Every time, every time, what she does, there is a response, what the hell is this woman!

"Wudu!"

The shouting was like thunder, Wu Ya'er stopped, and found himself walking outside the palace gate, the Zhenwu army surrounded by soldiers and horses was violent, and the soldiers and horses surrounding the Zhenwu army were frightened.

And outside these soldiers and horses, there are countless people trembling and snooping on the streets in the distance.

He looked in front of him and in the distance, raised his head and put his hand to his mouth, and let out a bright and high-pitched voice: "The emperor has died." ”

A crow roared, and the capital was in turmoil.
