Emperor Zhengxuan's face changed, he got up by himself, and glanced at Wang De, who understood and dismissed a group of serving servants, leaving only the queen mother and the emperor's mother and son in the palace.

"The queen mother is angry", Emperor Zheng Xuan said, "You are old, you should not be angry." ”

"Anger?" The Empress Dowager stared at Emperor Zhengxuan's eyes, pressing step by step: "You're going to do something to your brother, how can you calm your anger if you want to mourn your family?!" ”

"What did the queen mother say", Emperor Zhengxuan's face remained unchanged, "It's just to worship the ancestors and accompany you, where did the queen mother go?" ”

"Ancestor worship? If the mourning family lives in the deep palace for a long time and does not ask about the world, you will treat the mourning family as a fool! The Queen Mother said angrily, "Do you need to send the Imperial Forest Army to announce the decree when you worship your ancestors?" When Xu'er entered Beijing, you didn't ask him to go back to the palace, but stayed in the palace and sent someone to guard it, what is this for, house arrest? ”

"Which palace maid and eunuch chewed the root of your tongue in front of you, and the retainer just left the second brother to rest for two days, and it was more convenient to travel the day after tomorrow." Emperor Zhengxuan is still a painless way.

"Zhao Mingjing!" The Queen Mother was so angry that she even called the emperor by name, "Do you still think that the mourning family is your mother?" ”

Emperor Zhengxuan stood up and said respectfully: "The grace of the queen mother's birth and upbringing, the son will never dare to forget." ”

"That's good", the Queen Mother took a deep breath, "let your brother go back now." ”

"What the queen mother said, it is difficult for the sons to obey their fate", Emperor Zhengxuan said, "After worshipping the ancestors, the second brother will return to ......"

"Is he still alive after worshipping his ancestors?" The Queen Mother couldn't care about anything, and directly interrupted the emperor, "Why didn't you let him accompany you earlier, but you have been unwell recently, and suddenly called Xi'er to accompany you, what is your idea, don't you know when the mourning family does?" ”

"Since the queen mother knows, don't stop her son." Emperor Zhengxuan is no longer pretending.

"You ......" the Queen Mother pointed to her eldest son and was speechless, "He is your own brother, you have won this throne, isn't it enough?" You have to kill him, you are willing! ”

"Yes", Emperor Zhengxuan said confidently, "This throne is mine, just because of a ear disease, my father took the position of my crown prince, why?" My ear disease is also obtained from the battlefield, it is a look, not a criticism! ”

Speaking of which, Emperor Zhengxuan couldn't control his emotions a little, and coupled with his recent illness, his face was flushed and his breath was unstable.

The Queen Mother looked at such an eldest son, and she was also distressed, and couldn't help but slow down her voice: "However, since ancient times, the emperor has not been disabled......

"What if you have a disability?" Emperor Zhengxuan suddenly shouted, "Isn't it good to be the emperor Erchen?" ”

"Now that you have won the throne, Xu'er has no intention of fighting with you, why do you have to kill him?"

"Did he really have no intention? Do you not want to fight, or can't fight?" Emperor Zhengxuan looked crazy, "Even if he really doesn't have this mind", Emperor Zhengxuan sneered again, "It's only that he once sat on the throne of the crown prince back then, and his sons couldn't tolerate him." ”

"If you kill your siblings, aren't you afraid of being criticized by future generations?" The Queen Mother's eyes were split.

"Taimiao is far above the Jade Mountain, and it is not impossible to fall down, how can future generations criticize it?!"

"You...... You! The Queen Mother pointed at Emperor Zhengxuan tremblingly, unable to say a word.

Emperor Zhengxuan seemed to be completely open-minded, and said in a deep voice: "The queen mother is not feeling well, so let's go back to the palace to rest early." ”

"Come on, send your mother back to the palace," Emperor Zhengxuan said.

Wang De immediately bowed down and came in, this kind of royal secret room, he can't wait for his ears to be heard, and his eyes to be unable to see.

"If the queen mother has a sudden emergency, send a doctor to diagnose and treat her, and don't bother irrelevant people." Emperor Zhengxuan said again.

"The minions obey." Wang De took the order and left.

After Emperor Zhengxuan left, he vomited a mouthful of thick blood and spit on the floor tiles of Xingqing Palace, stained with a piece of red.

The Queen Mother had nothing to do and was placed under house arrest in Cishou Palace, shocked by the eldest son's desperation, and thinking of the fate that the younger son was about to face, she was finally overwhelmed and really fell ill.

The two days were fleeting, and on August 14, the holy car set off for the Yushan Taimiao to worship the ancestors of heaven and earth, accompanied by the prince and a number of clan ministers, unlike previous years, the prince of Qing was also included in the entourage this year.

For this sudden appearance this year, many people speculate that it may be a sign that the emperor wants to reuse Prince Qing, and on the way to Yushan, Emperor Zhengxuan often summons Prince Qing to accompany him.

On August 15, as soon as the sacrificial ceremony was completed, Emperor Zhengxuan paid tribute to the ancestors of heaven and earth, and then prepared to return and leave.

Zhao Mingxu looked at the figure of the imperial brother in the distance, and sighed slightly in his heart, waiting until after the sacrifice to do it to himself, is it to alleviate some guilt? Are you also afraid that after a hundred years, you will have no face to face your ancestors and ancestors?

Once, this man was also a good brother, who rode a horse and drew a bow with him, but now, the throne lies between the two, and their brothers are destined to not go back.

When he traveled west to the west of Yushan, he was suddenly attacked by the rebels of the previous dynasty, and the banner of King Chen's old department fluttered and raided the emperor's imperial car.

The two sides fought, and the emperor only had 5,000 elite soldiers, and in the face of the remnants of the former dynasty who were all over the mountains, they suffered heavy losses, and the prince was seriously injured and unconscious.

Emperor Zhengxuan was furious, and at this moment he could no longer care about what brothers to dispose of, and with only a few hundred remaining people, he retreated again and again, until the west of Yushan, and then there was a natural danger, and there was no way to retreat.

The royal family and ministers were trapped here, and Zhao Mingxu was among them.

"What's going on outside?"

"Your Majesty, embattled, the news may be difficult to transmit."

"Send elite troops to Shangjing, and be sure to spread the news that I am being besieged by the rebels to Shangjing."

"Yes."

At this time, there was still a lot of singing and dancing in Beijing, but everyone didn't know that a group of elite soldiers in disguise had already been ten miles away, and Ace led a small team of men and horses to sneak into Beijing first.

In the palace of Prince Qing, Jia Qiao'er held a letter in her hand, and her eyes were full of anger: "It's her!" ”

The maid knelt on the ground, not daring to speak, Jia Qiaoer had just learned that Song Liuli, the owner of the Rouge Pavilion, was the woman that Prince Qing had always favored in Xingping, although she had no intention of Zhao Mingxu, she would never allow anyone to touch this man.

"Arrest that slut to Hongu!" Jia Qiao'er said fiercely.

"Yes, slave and maid obey."

In the Rouge Pavilion, Liuli was doing business all her life, and suddenly a team of soldiers and horses poured in, and arrested her without saying a word.

"What are you doing here? Why do you arrest people who are good? Wei Zi was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

The soldiers at the head shouted: "The Qing Prince's Mansion will arrest people, and the idle people will disperse." ”

Qing Prince's Mansion? Liuli's heart moved: "But the princess used the things of the Rouge Pavilion, what's wrong?" ”

"You'll know when you go," the guard didn't show any mercy, and ordered in a cold voice: "Take it away." ”
