140 Rebellion on the Throne
Back at the palace, Zhao Zheng told Shen Yuexi about Pang Yun's conspiracy.
"Oh." Shen Yuexi replied in a complicated tone.
In her heart, Shen Yuexi clapped her hands and applauded, Pang Yun finally plotted chaos, and Nanxia was no longer calm.
"If the chaotic army is like a bamboo, can the imperial court have a countermeasure?" Shen Yuexi thought for a moment and asked.
"I should ask Beihu for help." Zhao Zheng thought about it and said.
"Is Southern Xia's military so weak?"
"After all, I haven't fought in more than ten years...... "Zhao was a little worried.
Hearing this, Shen Yuexi laughed wildly in her heart, now that it is time for King Beihu to know about the maidservant marrying on his behalf.
Once King Beihu knew that the princess of Nanxia he married was just a lowly servant girl, he would be furious, and not only would he not lend a helping hand to Nanxia at that time, but he would also take advantage of the chaos to attack Nanxia.
What she had been waiting for for a long time had finally come.
"Don't you feel uneasy?" Seeing that Shen Yuexi was as calm as ever, Zhao Zheng asked.
"It's not so easy to hit the capital, so why panic."
"What if?"
"If it hits the capital, Nanxia will no longer exist, and you can only escape."
"Do you want Nanxia to lose?"
Shen Yuexi thought for a while, "Me? It doesn't matter. ”
"Don't forget that you are the seventh princess of the Nanxia royal family, if Nanxia is subverted, the first person to die is all the people of the Nanxia royal family, including the child in your belly." Zhao Zheng reminded coldly.
"I believe in the Seventh Master, you won't let me die." Shen Yuexi's expression was still light and light.
Zhao Zheng looked at Shen Yuexi's expression, and became more and more aware of her viciousness, which was ridiculous that he had always thought that she was weak and helpless.
"Seventh Prince, someone has come to the palace." Just thinking about it, Xiao Luzi shouted outside the door.
Zhao Zheng turned around and went out. And then he never came back.
Shen Yuexi asked Zhicui to inquire, and Zhicui came back and said that Zhao Zheng asked the people around the Queen Mother to call to the palace, maybe something happened in the palace.
Hearing that Zhao Zheng entered the palace, Shen Yuexi did not delay, immediately got up, and took Zhicui out of the palace.
She went to Dali Temple on death row, and with the help of that prison warden, she met her brother Shen Yi again.
"Pang Yun has rebelled." As soon as they met, Shen Yuexi hurriedly told Shen Yi about it.
"Then the emperor should want to get that empty treasury even more." Shen Yi said in a low voice
"Has Wei Daxun interrogated you?" Shen Yuexi asked in a low voice.
"After interrogating, ask me about the vault, of course I don't know, and he can't do it." Shen Yi smiled helplessly.
"Originally, this matter didn't end so easily, but now that Pang Yun is in turmoil, the emperor has to think about countermeasures, and when the situation is a little stable, the emperor will still worry about this treasury."
"And because of the war, the emperor needs that treasury more and more."
Shen Yuexi nodded, "Just now, the Queen Mother summoned the Seventh Prince into the palace, and I don't know what happened. ”
"Could it be that the Seventh Prince will ask you about the whereabouts of your vault?"
"Perhaps."
After Shen Yuexi finished speaking, she looked at Shen Yi, and the brother and sister were silent for a while.
"Anyway, as the war deepens, the situation in Nanxia will become more and more chaotic, brother, you have to be prepared, deal with it immediately, and I will rescue you from prison as long as there is a chance." Finally, Shen Yuexi instructed Shen Yi.
Shen Yi nodded.

The palace, as soon as Zhao Zheng stepped into it, he felt that the atmosphere was a little unusual, the palace people were much more hurried and solemn than before, Zhao Zheng only thought that it was because of the war, the emperor was in a bad mood, and everyone became nervous.
It wasn't until I entered Fushou Palace that I saw the Queen Mother and knew that the emperor was sick.
"The emperor hasn't been in court for two days." The Queen Mother whispered to Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng was secretly taken aback. He knows the emperor's diligence, and he will never stop the early dynasty unless it is absolutely necessary, not to mention that it is now a threshold of civil strife.
"What did the Imperial Doctor say?" Zhao Zheng asked.
"The emperor has worked hard for many years, and his body is in a great deficit, and this time the rush has aggravated this deficit, just like a wall that is about to fall happens to be drenched in heavy rain, and it is in danger." The Queen Mother lowered her voice and said.
The four words of danger made Zhao Zheng's heart tighten, the emperor's dragon body was already sick, and the four words of danger were even more shocking.
"What does the queen mean?"
"The emperor's dragon body is uneasy and can't go to court early, the daily government affairs of the past two days have been discussed and decided by the military aircraft department, the mourning family went to see the emperor this morning, he was in a coma and weak, all the imperial doctors were there, his face was heavy, and the mourning family looked like that......" The queen mother said and looked at Zhao Zheng, her eyes were intriguing.
Zhao Zheng understood that gaze, which meant that the emperor might die soon.
The incident was too unexpected, and Zhao Zheng was a little unacceptable for a while. The two brothers have always been at odds with each other, but at this juncture, Zhao Zheng is still a little sad.
"At present, the crown prince is only eight years old, and even if he ascends the throne, he will not be able to handle state affairs, and the queen will definitely let her mother's family assist her, so that the power of my royal family will be divided." The Queen Mother approached Zhao Zheng and said in a low voice.
"What do you think, Queen Mother?" Zhao Zheng sniffed out the unusual meaning from the Queen Mother's words.
"The queen mother's meaning, if you really need a regent, you are naturally the most suitable."
The Queen Mother's words surprised Zhao Zheng again, and he was completely stunned and silent.
"The queen mother called you here to let you have a preparation, whether it is psychological preparation or the preparation of the court relationship, you must make a foreshadowing in advance, so as not to be unable to deal with it at that time, the emperor's dragon body recovery is naturally good, in case there is a mistake, we must not let outsiders benefit."
Zhao Zheng thought about it for a while, and finally nodded.
The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief.
"Erchen went to visit the imperial brother." After a while, Zhao Zheng said.
The Queen Mother nodded, and then instructed, "Just go and see quietly, the emperor needs to recuperate now, you just go in and take a look at it." ”
The Queen Mother was afraid that if the emperor saw Zhao Zheng, she would be in a bad mood and her condition would be aggravated.
Zhao Zheng nodded in agreement, and then got up and went to the Qinzheng Palace.
In the Qinzheng Palace, Sun Delu was guarding outside the dormitory, his eyes were full of red silk, he had stayed up for two nights and had not slept yet, and when he saw Zhao Zheng, his eyes were red again, and he whispered hello: "Seventh Prince, you are here." ”
Zhao Zheng motioned to Sun Delu not to be polite, "How is the imperial brother?" ”
"I'm resting after drinking the medicine given by the imperial doctor."
"In order not to disturb the royal brother, this king only needs to take a look behind the curtain."
This is exactly what Sun Delu thought, "Lord Xie Qi, you are considerate. ”
After speaking, Sun Delu took Zhao Zheng gently into the dormitory, in the scorching heat, the doors and windows in the dormitory were closed, and the smell of traditional Chinese medicine and incense blended together, making people feel depressed when they smelled it.
Through the curtain, Zhao Zheng looked at Zhao Guang who was lying on the bed, but after a few days of hard work, Zhao Guang lost weight, his face was dark, and the signs of illness were clear at a glance.
After looking at it for a while, Zhao Zheng lowered the curtain and turned around and walked out of the dormitory.
Sun Delu followed behind, with a sad face.
"How could the imperial brother suddenly become so sick?" Zhao Zheng still felt a little incredible. Even if the illness comes like a mountain, it may not fall too quickly.
"When the news of Pang Yun's rebellion came, the emperor couldn't sleep or eat well for two days in a row, and suddenly fainted the night before yesterday, and then he couldn't afford to get sick." Sun Delu whispered.
"The government has been as usual these days?" Zhao Zheng walked a little farther away from the guards, and then asked Sun Delu in a low voice.
Sun Delu's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he said: "In the past two days, the government has been handled by the maintenance department, and the right prime minister Wu Zhichuan is the head of the maintenance department, and everyone obeys his wishes." ”
The right prime minister Wu Zhichuan is the father of the queen Wu Jiao, although he was the ruler of the country before, but the emperor intended to suppress his power, but reused the left prime minister An Peiquan more.
Now that the emperor is seriously ill, the atmosphere in the court has suddenly undergone some subtle changes, forming a force with Wu Zhichuan as the backbone, everyone is like a mirror, in case the emperor has three long and two short, the prince Zhao Yincheng will definitely ascend the throne immediately, and an eight-year-old child, ignorant and ignorant, naturally needs someone to assist, looking at the entire court, of course, Wu Zhichuan can have this qualification, he is not only the right prime minister, but also the prince's maternal grandfather, who else is he?
"That Prime Minister Wu is really hard." Zhao Zheng said lukewarmly.
"Who says it's not, Prime Minister Wu is also old, I'm afraid that it will be inappropriate if I continue to work hard for a long time." Sun Delu looked at Zhao Zheng and said with something in his words.
"Brother Huang is deeply blessed, and he will recover as soon as possible, and then he won't have to bother Prime Minister Wu."
"Yes, that's what you said, Lord Seven." Sun Delu nodded.
"Then the king will go back first, there is a father-in-law here."
"It's the duty of a minion." Sun Delu hurriedly gave a salute.
Then, Sun Delu sent Zhao Zheng out of the Qinzheng Palace, outside the main gate, Sun Delu said again: "Now it's not as good as before, the Seventh Prince, you have to come to the palace often to see, how to say that this is the world of the Zhao family, and naturally the Zhao family needs to take on more responsibilities." ”
Zhao Zheng understood what Sun Delu meant, and said: "Father-in-law Sun, please rest assured, the royal family's affairs, this king is duty-bound." ”
Sun Delu smiled at this time, and bent over to send off the Seventh Prince.

By the time Zhao Zheng returned to the palace, Shen Yuexi had already returned to the palace.
"What did the Queen Mother call you for?" Shen Yuexi asked.
Zhao Zheng has never recovered from the surprise that the emperor is seriously ill, and when he heard Shen Yuexi ask like this, he sighed a lot, and he stayed for a while before he said softly: "Brother Huang's dragon body is sick." ”
Shen Yuexi was also taken aback, she thought of many possibilities, but she didn't expect that the emperor would be sick.
can let the queen mother be urgently summoned to the palace, presumably the emperor's illness is not very good.
"How can this be the case." Shen Yuexi said to herself.
However, this is good news for Shen Yuexi, Pang Yun is in turmoil, the emperor is seriously ill, the court in Nanxia is really stormy at the moment, if the emperor really dies, then his brother will be out of prison just around the corner.
"What does the queen mean by summoning you to the palace?" Shen Yuexi asked again.
Zhao Zheng was still a little dazed, and when he heard Shen Yuexi's question, he thought about it, "If the imperial brother dragon body does not recover, I am afraid that the court of Southern Xia will be unstable." ”
