Chapter 691: Hold Me Down

The queen's lips trembled slightly.

She panicked and almost didn't answer.

Take a few breaths of tea, and then think about it, it's not right.

If it is really revealed, the emperor should directly find someone to arrest him, how could he let Cheng Ziyu pretend to be Tian Wanyi?

"Does the county lord know what to do in the name of the emperor......"

The queen was halfway through speaking, but it was her personal grandmother who was frowning and shaking her head while opening the curtain and walking up to her and whispering.

I can't help but believe it. Tian Wanyi's several minions have spoken out the current situation of Chuxiu Palace. The grandmother also told the queen that there were two people with terrible eyes among the people who followed Cheng Ziyu, and their breathing and footsteps were almost inaudible, and they should be the emperor's shadow guards. I don't know if I'm here to protect Cheng Ziyu or to monitor Kunning Palace......

The queen was even more shaky when she heard this.

Cheng Ziyu knew the queen's questions, and she came to stabilize the queen. As long as the prince does not rebel, they will have time to wait for Zhu Changzhe to come back, wait for Li Chun to come back, wait for the Japanese and Northern Barbarians to be exhausted, wait for Kang Anbo to free up his hand, and wait for the Jiangnan army to solve Zhu Changjue.

Time is what they lack most at the moment.

As long as the crown prince does not rebel and the emperor does not die, Zhu Changan has no name to instigate Bai Heng to help him enter Beijing. Then all his plans are destined to come to naught.

And if the emperor wants to live a few more days, he is afraid that the queen and the prince will have to take out the medicine.

So at this point, the top priority of everything has fallen on the queen and the crown prince.

The emperor's inability to come to Kunning Palace has caused outsiders to speculate, and neither can Father-in-law Yu. So she had to come......

Cheng Ziyu saw the grandmother who had just come in.

"You're Mama Tan, right?"

The queen and hers both had a ghostly look on their faces.

That Mama Tan used to be extremely inconspicuous, and she rarely went out of Kunning Palace. Only a few old people in the palace know about her, Cheng Ziyu, who has only been to Kunning Palace once or twice, can still accurately identify Mama Tan?

"Mama Tan's medical skills are very good, right?" Cheng Ziyu stretched out her hand and lifted her sleeve up, revealing a piece of her wrist.

"Why don't you ask Mama to give me a pulse?"

The queen and Mama Tan couldn't hide their astonishment and looked at each other several times.

Mama Tan's medical skills are good, this is a secret.

As the mother of a country, it is too necessary for the queen to have a good doctor by her side. Mama Tan was assigned to her by the family that day. Not many people in Kunning Palace know about this!

"Does the queen think she has everything under control? Actually, I want to tell you that you are self-righteous, you know, there really isn't much. Cheng Ziyu smiled confidently and gestured to Mama Tan again. I'll be serious, come on, show me a pulse. ”

Seeing that Cheng Ziyu was not joking, the queen was also confused. Could it be that this Cheng Ziyu was also poisoned?

Give the mama a look, and the mama will come up and take the pulse.

Then, I saw that the grandmother's eyebrows opened and closed, her expression was strange, all of them wanted to say but didn't dare to say, didn't know how to say it, and finally it was incredible, and she couldn't figure it out.

Well, it's the same as the expression after the king brought someone to see her in the cold palace before.

"The county lord is pregnant."

The queen raised her eyebrows and said in her heart: So what? What's the matter with you? Want to congratulate her yourself? Or do you want to give it yourself?

"It should be more than two months." The mama added.

The queen's disapproving eyes instantly deepened.

"What?"

"The county lord is more than two months pregnant."

"You do it again." The queen motioned to the grandmother. What do you mean? She couldn't help but look Cheng Ziyu up and down.

That face, as if smiling or not, was sarcastic and arrogant. The abdomen was still flat, and I couldn't see anything. If you are pregnant, it should never be more than three months.

The queen also remembered that in the imperial study yesterday, I heard that Cheng Ziyu almost fainted several times. Is it because you're pregnant?

Mama Tan checked it again and confirmed that it was correct.

"I'm not mistaken, the queen thinks she can control the whole situation in the shadows, but she doesn't know that many things have always been kept in the dark. You don't know anything so big, are you sure you have the ability to control everything? ”

The queen bit her lip.

I feel a little dizzy.

"Whose is this kid?" The queen was confused. What's going on? She couldn't figure it out. Li Chun left on the 10th day of the seventh month, and it has been four months. Can Cheng Ziyu's fetus......

It's clearly not right!

"The mother is really confused. My fetus is naturally Li Chun's. Otherwise, can the emperor protect me? Cheng Ziyu's eyes were full of smiles.

The queen was stunned again.

yes, how could it be someone else's? Cheng Ziyu dared to be exposed, and she was fearless. The emperor will protect her, and this baby is naturally fine.

This kid can only be Li Chun's!

Can......

Li Chun is in the southwest, how can she get pregnant with a child?

Cheng Ziyu clearly hasn't left Beijing, so is Li Chun back?

The queen was stupid.

Did Li Chun leave the army behind and come back before, or did Li Chun always stay in the capital?

So who's in the Southwest? Who is besieged?

No way!

If Li Chun was in Beijing, the situation would not have come to this point......

The more the queen thought about it, the more confused she became, and she had doubts about herself, could it be that as Cheng Ziyu said, she really knew much less than she did?

Looking at the growing doubts in the queen's eyes, Cheng Ziyu's heart gradually calmed down.

"I am Li Chun's family, I am pregnant with Li Chun's child, you, King An, and Zhu Changjue are all so impatient, in order to prevent being manipulated, the emperor naturally wants to protect me. So they put me in the palace. What a cold palace, a means of concealing people's eyes and ears and tempting you.

I didn't expect the crown princess to jump off the beam clown, and really embarrassed me, you and the prince clearly owe me favors but look at me coldly, it's really chilling. But the result? Immediate retaliation, right? It's just a shame for the crown princess to suffer a loss, and it also affects the reputation of the Xiao family and the prince, don't you understand? ”

Cheng Ziyu tried her best to show herself confidently, and tried her best to make herself look unfathomable, and her demeanor and flickering really succeeded in making the queen repeatedly vain......

"You think everything is under the control of your Xiao family, but how much do you really know about the affairs in the palace and the situation? Why do you think the emperor didn't respond?

Queen Mother, I don't want to beat around the bush, let's just talk about it. Tian Wanyi has already made all the moves, Kunning Palace is now surrounded by secret guards, only entering and not leaving, without permission, not even a fly can fly out. It is easy for the emperor to clean you up, as long as the emperor wants to, he can immediately use you as bait to introduce the prince and the Xiao family into the palace. At that time you will be wiped out, all lost, and all will be finished. ”

The queen's complexion changed several times. After a few breaths, he returned to his usual decent and calm face.

"What the county lord said was also funny. If this palace is really so bad, the emperor has already done it, hasn't he? What are you doing this time? What are you talking to me about? "As she just said, wouldn't it be better to detain the prince? The queen couldn't think about it, but she had to guard against Cheng Ziyu from testing herself. "Could it be that the county lord is here to sell the favor of the palace again?"

"Not bad! The queen has finally opened her mind! ”

“……”

"Wise people don't speak dark words! This is the last chance for the crown prince and the Xiao family! If you don't believe it, then pass on a message to try it, not only will your people or letters not be able to get out of the palace, but even Kunning Palace will not be able to get out. Now, if you don't accept my last kindness, the emperor will be forced to have no choice but to take the crown prince. ”

The queen stopped talking, only staring fixedly.

Cheng Ziyu knew that the queen was shaken, so she hurriedly analyzed the words in the Gangyu study about the prince having become a pawn of King An and King Jue, and the collusion between the two kings.

The queen was stunned.

This time, the timing was just right. Li Chun is not here, and the other princes are also far away. This made them even more determined to increase the toxicity and solve it quickly.

They also noticed King An, who seemed to be closer five hundred miles away.

But they didn't end up seeing the distance as a threat.

Because they feel that when the emperor dies and the crown prince ascends the throne, the Beiban will definitely feel that the opportunity has come, and they will definitely act and counterattack. Even if Zhu Changan was unwilling, he had to bite the bullet and fight with Beiman first. Bai Heng is a person who understands the importance of importance, and he will definitely put the overall situation first......

yes, but they didn't expect it, just in case...... Beiban was originally attracted by Zhu Changan? Is it Zhu Changan's help rather than resistance?

If that's the case, wouldn't it be as long as King An hooked his fingers, then they would give up the position that they had spent decades of effort and countless losses to take?

"How did Zhu Changan know about the emperor's illness?" In fact, what the queen wants to ask is: How did Zhu Changan know that Tian Wanyi was poisoned on the orders of the prince? But she only held back such a sentence in the end.

If Zhu Changan really knew, wouldn't he be waiting to reap the benefits of the fisherman? Poisoning the emperor, several clans are punished in a row, and the son kills his father, the world will not tolerate it! Sending this handle out is completely a stepping stone for Zhu Chang'an's ascension!

"You can place Tian Wanyi next to the emperor, won't Zhu Changan arrange his people? It's already early winter, and the Northern Barbarians are neither leaving nor fighting, so it's idle to confront each other and make a small fuss? They're not wintering anymore? In the past six months, they have been beaten by Zhu Changan and run around, where did they get the war materials? What makes them more and more courageous? What is the basis of the union of their ministries? The most important thing is that if the emperor is not sure, he will not even care about your murder of him for the time being, and come to give you this opportunity to atone for your sins? ”

The queen's face couldn't hold back any longer, and it was already black.

It was also at this time that a report came from outside: saying that the news really couldn't get out. Even the pigeons that were released disappeared in mid-air.

"Now the queen is dead? The emperor wants to hold you and the prince at this moment, it is as easy as a snap! ”

Cheng Ziyu made up her mind.

She kept staring at the queen, and naturally did not ignore the trace of fierceness that flashed in the queen's eyes.

"Is the queen thinking that even then you won't necessarily lose? Are you thinking about it, if you go all out, you can quickly unite with the old clan to support the crown prince to ascend the throne. Together, there are tens of thousands of people? As long as you move fast enough, seize power ruthlessly enough, and the crown prince is destined to return, can you still take over the emperor's personal guard forbidden army?

At that time, your manpower will be almost 100,000, even if Zhu Changan instigates Bai Heng to enter Beijing, you may not lose? As long as you hold on and use the appeal of the old clan, you will soon be able to gather follow-up troops from Gyeonggi to support? ……”

Cheng Ziyu simply said everything the queen might think, and the queen's face was even more ugly.

"Let's not mention the risks, and don't mention whether you have the ability to take over the forbidden army, I'm afraid you forgot, why did I just let you know that I was pregnant?"

"Li Chun?"

"That's right! What do you think he was busy in the first half of the year? Let me tell you, the number of Jingwei at this moment is far more than you think! If you want to wrest power from the emperor, there is no way! Moreover, the emperor has already taken precautions, and if he wants to take over the troops in an all-round way, he not only needs the emperor's approval, but also has to go through the unified nodding of several generals secretly arranged by the emperor.

In other words, you can only use the tens of thousands of people you have put together. As soon as you move, the Guards will deal with you first.

What do you think Li Chun did when he returned to Beijing two months ago, tell you that at that time, he guessed that there might be chaos in Beijing, and he had already distributed the hidden personal guard forces. Tell you, Li Chun is not as described by the southwest military situation, he is blocked on the mountain, he takes his soldiers, and the fact is only 500 miles away from the capital. So, no matter how hard you struggle, it won't work anymore! ”

Most of these words are false, Cheng Ziyu knows that the queen's heart is in turmoil, and she can't believe it when she says it in the current situation.

"You say, you're going to give me and the prince a chance?" The queen asked cautiously.

"That's right. The reason why the emperor didn't do anything to you was because he didn't want to cheapen Zhu Changan. It's as simple as that. ”

"Isn't it an antidote?"

"If the emperor captures your entire clan, digging three feet into the ground with the power of digging three feet into the ground, and using the skill of ninety-nine torture, it may not be impossible to get the antidote from your mouth, right?"

The queen was silent.

"The emperor asked me to tell you, as long as you do what he instructs, as long as you can be obedient, as long as the Xiao family doesn't mess around, as long as you don't give Zhu Changan a chance, not only can your old clan be preserved to the greatest extent, but even, you still have a chance to get what you really want!"

Cheng Ziyu drew a decent cake very seriously.

"What do you mean? Cheng Ziyu, this is too fake! If you say that you can save the lives of our people, it is more credible. How? What do we want? Can the emperor still give us the throne? ”

Cheng Ziyu smiled. "Why not?"

"Tell me better!"

"Queen, you haven't received the news yet, King Zhe was assassinated by King Jue, he was hit by a sharp arrow, and he died nine times in his life, and his whereabouts are unknown. Even if you don't die, you may not be able to return. Even if it can be returned, may it be scrapped? ”

"Really?"

Sure enough, the eyes of the queen, who heard that King Zhe was abolished, suddenly lit up, and hope was rekindled.

"The emperor received the news three hours ago. I guess the Xiao family should have heard about it by this time. Therefore, the emperor has no choice now. Compared with Zhu Chang'an, who dared to collude with King Jue and collude with the Northern Barbarians, the discomfort brought to the emperor by the old clans with deep-rooted strength in the Great Zhou is almost negligible. ”

Cheng Ziyu's nonsense is becoming more and more tempting for the conceited queen.

"The old people are at least for the sake of the Great Zhou, at least they are loyal to the imperial court, at least they know how to love the country and protect their families, at least their ancestors have worked hard for the prosperity of the Great Zhou, at least they will not do treason and betrayal of the people. The emperor is a Ming monarch, and this basic discernment of right and wrong and overall situation is still there. ”

Cheng Ziyu just wants to try to stabilize the princelings. So the lies that were made up according to the queen's mind are getting more and more slippery.
