Chapter 20: Heading North (1)

Xiao Chengzi shook his legs and said, "Niangniang, don't look at it...... Look at the Bibo Lake in front of you, a large group of people and horses, is it not the honor guard of Tubo? ”

Lin Yuan looked at it, and sure enough, many foreigners in long-sleeved robes were hurrying past with a sedan chair. Purple >

"Forget it, she's already on her way." Lin Yuan sighed: "Go to Yanqing Palace, this palace wants to see Concubine Zhuang." ”

After Changning got married, Xiao Yuan, the concubine, was often able to enter and leave the court. Compared with Changning, who has been strictly controlled since childhood, Xiao Yuan is a half-old child at all, and when he enters the palace, he goes to Concubine Zhuang to eat and drink. Xiao Yuan was able to enter and leave the court at will, which was undoubtedly a great convenience, so that Lin Yuan was even more unscrupulous in wooing courtiers and forming parties for personal gain.

This time was no exception, Lin Yuan received a reply from the right prime minister a day later.

At this time, the Tibetan envoy Kankan left the capital, and the one who left the palace together was Concubine Zhen, who had been summoned by the holy decree.

Lin Yuan hurriedly browsed through Shuxin, and then looked annoyed and hated: "What a waste!" Bengong just wants to go north with Yun Dan to accompany him, he is a dignified prime minister, and he can't even do this thing! ”

Lin Yuan begged Xiao Zhen this time, just to let him send him to Northern Xinjiang. No one is not afraid of war, Lin Yuan is a woman, and she is respectful of the bloody ghost place like the battlefield. However, now Yundan has gone north......

The emperor went on an expedition, and all the concubines stayed in the capital, and Yun Dan must have been alone in favor and envious of others. However, at this time, Lin Yuan had no intention of competing for favor at all. The purpose of Yundan's trip north must not be simple.

She is a henchman of King Wu! King Wu had left the palace and gone north more than ten days ago.

Ye Xiuxin cheated to death, and she disappeared at this time!

Lin Yuan could have a hunch that if he stayed in the palace and lived a stable life, when the emperor came back, eighty percent of the position in the East Palace would change hands to King Wu. Concubine Zhen and King Wu went to Beisai regardless of life and death, and they knew what they were planning! Extremely close to the northern frontier front was Yunzhou in Western Liang, and the Yunzhou generals led by Feng Huaien all supported King Wu. In the north, the Tibetan allies also sent hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to aid the Qin state in the war. Concubine Zhen has supreme power in Tibet, and those Tibetan soldiers and horses will obey her!

Although the sixth prince is already in the East Palace, and there is the support of the right prime minister and other ministers in the court, Lin Yuan knows that King Wu has a strong force behind him, so he must not take it lightly!

Lin Yuan had no choice, so she had to go to Beisai with her and accompany Tuoba Hong.

The person who sent the letter was the palace maid of Changning, and now she went to the Prime Minister's Mansion with her marriage, and she has become the center of the mansion again. She said with sincere fear: "Niangniang, such a big matter, it is indeed difficult for the Prime Minister to handle...... Concubine Niangniang is the mother of the crown prince, and her status is transcendent, if you go to northern Xinjiang, it will definitely cause a great upheaval in the court, and the queen and the henchmen of King Wu will definitely obstruct it in every way. However, if the little lord of Hua Gui Ji is to replace you with tens of millions, it will be much simpler......"

Lin Yuan came up when he heard the anger, stretched out his hand and patted it, and a golden scissors on the kang table jumped up and almost poked his chest: "Old man Xiao!" Hongu has long known that he appreciates Fahrenheit, and you go back and tell him that you don't want to replace Honggong with Fahrenheit! This time on the battlefield in Northern Xinjiang, Bengong is bound to win, no matter what method he uses, he must do it for Bengong! ”

Xiao Zhen just sat in the seat of the military aircraft department not long ago. Yang Qi is a lucky and unlucky person, unfortunately, his body could have supported him for two years, but it happened that his eldest granddaughter who was not a good person eloped with a poor scholar and him off to death. Fortunately, he died of sudden illness, and he was not involved in the battle for succession until his death, and the emperor posthumously named him King An and buried him with a princely ceremony.

Yang Qi was one of the few high-ranking officials in the Qianwu Dynasty who died well.

Now that Xiao Zhen has taken over the position, he is no longer the humble and humble man who was pressed by Prime Minister Zuo so that he couldn't even see his hair, and no one in the court dared to despise and humiliate him for several years, let alone Lin Yuan's unscrupulous scolding.

The palace maid was so frightened that her face was pale, and she hurriedly said: "Niangniang, my family is indeed in trouble......

"Hongu knows it's hard!" Lin Yuan glanced at her contemptuously: "If Lord Xiao can't do it, this palace can find another capable person." Prime Minister Zuo and Empress Shangguan are incompatible, and they have been watching the East Palace and King Wu all these years, wanting to choose among them...... Yesterday, Prime Minister Zuo also sent a letter to the palace......"

The palace maid was shocked when she heard this, and Lin Yuan had already waved her hand to take her down.

As Lin Yuan said, Prime Minister Zuo is declining, his daughter Empress Zhaorui has not been able to leave a prince, and if the Xiao family wants to get the future, they must choose one of the remaining princes.

Prime Minister Zuo hesitated between King Wu and the East Palace, he did give Lin Yuan a hint, but the conditions he offered were too high, and Lin Yuan didn't want to give them.

Lin Yuan sat quietly. In the middle of the night, she carried the sedan chair to Changle Palace.

The Queen Mother passed away, but everything in Changle Palace was as usual, and the furnishings in it were all arranged according to the Queen Mother's intentions. Zhining, Zhiyun, and Zhijing were not allowed to be buried according to the will of the Queen Mother, and stayed in Changle Palace for the rest of their lives. The place where the queen mother sends her spirit is not the Dajue Temple that has always been preferred by the noble ladies in the palace, but the Taoyuan Temple of Wuyi Mountain, which is thousands of miles away from the capital.

Changle Palace is really the same as before, the purple bamboo forest in front of the door is luxuriant, and the leaves of the golden locust are still green. Lin Yuan bowed three times and knocked nine times in front of the palace gate, clasped her hands together and chanted silently, as if repenting.

Years ago, she also kowtowed here to make a gesture of life and death, but it was not true, she was terminally ill at that time, but she survived. Now, it is the Queen Mother who has left early.

She and the Queen Mother used each other throughout their lives, but it is undeniable that the protection and care given to her by the Queen Mother is her life's wealth.

It was so before, and it is the same now.

Coming to greet her was Mama Zhijing. Zhijing is the confidant of the Queen Mother, and has the highest status among the palace people of Changle Palace. She was dressed in a navy blue monk's robe, tied her hair in straw sandals, and recited a Buddha name when she opened the door.

Lin Yuan was silent, and neither of them said a word. However, Zhijing obviously understood the purpose of Lin Yuan's appearance here, she took a step back sideways, and Zhining behind her reached out to open the double doors of the palace door, and Lin Yuan slowly stepped inside.

She walked slowly through the cloister, the antechamber, the hall and the picture screen, where there were still several pots of tea and plum under the curtains, and the orange flowers had just opened, and there was no fragrance, only sandalwood that diffused leisurely from the hall. Lin Yuan didn't stop to watch, she went straight around the main hall to the apse, followed by the scene behind her, and stepped forward to open the door for her.

Unlike the open main hall, the door of the apse is locked by a huge copper lock, but fortunately it is still spotless, and it is obvious that several people will open the lock and clean it every day. Lin Yuan entered alone, groped on the table of the King Kong statue enshrined in the apse, and after feeling for a while, she took out a roll of silk silk from the third small drawer on the upper count.

She left quickly, and it was already the time to worship the Buddha in the afternoon, and several people hurried to Chonghua Palace, and they didn't have time to send her out.

"When will the prince return to Yuzhao Palace?" Lin Yuan asked left and right.

The sedan chair walked very fast, and the eight sedan chair drivers were so tired that they were out of breath but did not dare to say a word. Xiao Chengzi followed in broken steps and said, "Your Highness can't come back today." The two prime ministers and Master Hanlin have just entered the palace, and there is something important to play. In the eventful autumn of the capital, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very busy, and the Criminal Department received a number of cases of selling gold......"

During the war years, everyone was panicked, but a few years ago, the Qin State won the battle all day long, and the people felt that the country was strong. Since the defeat of Qianwu in the seventeenth year, the people of this country began to panic, and they finally understood that the Qin State was not strong enough, and Yanzhou could be captured, so would the capital and even the cities in the south of the Yangtze River be slaughtered by war one day?

As a result, gold soared, money banks closed down one after another, and people from northern Shaanxi, Gansu, Shandong and other places moved to the south, which were inevitable phenomena in wartime.

Lin Yuan nodded when he listened: "It's okay." The world is not peaceful, the prince can't pull away, and the palace can't disturb him. You go to Changxin Palace to play Empress Qi now, and then pass on the edict of the Empress Dowager Zhaode. ”

The will in Lin Yuan's hands was quickly passed on.

Empress Dowager Zhuang Mu Shengcheng Zhaode, in December of the seventeenth year of Xue and Qianwu, there was an edict saying: "...... Let the queen and concubine assist the emperor and persuade the Sacred Heart. ”

In all the emperor's harems, the queen mother only trusted the queen and the concubine. Before the Empress Dowager went to the Immortal, she was very anxious about the domestic and foreign troubles of Daqin, so she left an edict to give a queen and a concubine the right to participate in politics and auxiliary politics. As far as the emperor was concerned, the two of them were able to speak out, and if they were angry with the emperor for disobeying the emperor, the emperor would not be able to punish them with this edict. For the courtiers, as a harem, they have the right to interfere in politics, and the left and right prime ministers and a cadre of military generals are controlled by them.

However, except for a piece of paper, the Queen Mother did not leave any tokens for the two. The seal, token and dragon and phoenix Pisces in the hands of the Queen Mother were all buried in the imperial tomb with the Queen Mother.

After the emperor's personal conquest, the crown prince was in power in the capital, and all Lin Yuan's decisions were promulgated in the name of the crown prince, and there was no need for the queen mother's edict. On Shangguan Li's side, the Empress of Qin has always had the right to participate in politics, and she and Tuoba Hong raised their eyebrows, Tuoba Hong could not kill her because she admonished some unpopular words, so she never went to Changle Palace to ask for a testament.

It's been two years since the Queen Mother Immortal went. Lin Yuan asked for the edict for the first time.

Along with the edict, the decree was stamped with the golden book of the concubine. Concubine Shu obeyed the queen mother's wishes and took the initiative to ask for orders to accompany the emperor to the front.

The courtiers were in an uproar.

Not long ago, Concubine Zhen had just been taken away by the envoys. Concubine Zhen's identity was different from that of the concubines, and at the request of the Tibetan envoys, the emperor allowed her to go north to accompany her, this was because Qin and Tubo were allies, and the emperor needed reinforcements from Tibet, so he would naturally agree to keep Concubine Zhen by his side. But Concubine Shu, she is a woman from the Qin State who is not from a good background, and her mother family has no generals on the expedition, so such a woman has no value on the front line.
