came up and sat down with doubts in her heart, the empress smiled very happily, and personally gave the lamp to Wang Xiaolai, and she couldn't see the depressed appearance of the empress before.

"There are no outsiders at the banquet, everyone can drink happily." The empress laughed.

However, everyone present, including Wang Xiaolai, who has always had a big heart, felt a little awkward in their hearts, Wang Xiaolai was awkward, because he didn't know what the female emperor was doing when she suddenly held such a party today, after all, Sui Yang did not have the custom of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

Other people are awkward, that's because they have more or less guessed that the current Daxing City is not very peaceful.

Glancing at the people around her, the empress put down her wine glass, sighed and asked, "What's the matter, all Aiqing have something on their minds?" ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister has the courage to ask, why did Your Majesty invite the ministers to come today?" Liu Maolin was the first to ask.

The Eight Sages King also followed: "Yes, Your Majesty, the old minister also has this intention. ”

The empress sighed: "It's nothing, I just think that everyone has worked hard for a year, and I have nothing to say, so I can only invite everyone to come and watch a good play." ”

"Watching a play? What play? ”

When the words fell, everyone didn't understand.

The empress waved her hand, and Camellia walked outside and pushed the door open.

The empress got up with a wine glass, came to the door, half-snuggled on the edge of the door frame, looked at the snowy scene in the sky outside, and asked: "Zhong Aiqing, have you ever seen the heavy snow outside?" ”

Everyone except Wang Xiaolai stood up and nodded: "Back to Your Majesty, the ministers have seen it." ”

The empress smiled: "It's a pity, tomorrow morning, it took God a night to wrap the earth with a layer of silver, and it will be covered with a piece of red." ”

Everyone: "??? What do you mean? ”

The empress sighed: "You Aiqing don't have to pretend to be confused with me, what is going to happen in Daxing City right now, I think everyone knows, it should be no less than me." ”

The Eight Sages King hissed and said, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" ”

The empress looked up at the Eight Sages King: "Uncle Huang, I know that for the sake of those brothers and nephews of the same sect, you dare not reveal it to me, because you understand that if I knew what happened, I would have killed someone." But Uncle Huang, you underestimate the greed of those people too much. ”

was exposed by the empress's words, and the Eight Sages King was petrified in place at that time.

The empress followed and looked at Liu Maolin: "Old Xiangguo, compared to the imperial uncle, your courage is a little insufficient, in fact, this is also your shortcoming, in the case of no certainty, you dare not assert at all, this is also obviously you know more news than me, but you have not been able to make a decision, whether to trust your own judgment, or quietly watch the development of the situation, because you are afraid, you are afraid that I will treat you for a crime of bullying the king." ”

Liu Maolin knelt down: "The minister is guilty." ”

The empress nodded with satisfaction, and then faced Li Tianxing again.

"Wen Hou, to be honest, I don't like you very much, especially after you listened to the words of the imperial brother and killed three thousand students, since then, I feel that you are too cold-blooded to be believed."

Li Tianxing pursed his lips and did not make a sound.

But who knows, a smile appeared on the empress's face: "But you have the best and wisest merit, that is, you know who is the master of Sui Yang." ”

The Eight Sages King and Liu Maolin both looked back at Li Tianxing.

The empress took a deep breath, drank all the wine in the wine glass, let out a long breath, and laughed arrogantly: "Zhao Yu Zhao Sui, you two, if you have the courage, come on, I will wait for you in this palace." ”

Wang Xiaolai, who was eating the delicacies on the table, raised his head suddenly, and the wine suddenly woke up: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”

Zhao Liwen persuaded Wang Xiaolai not to speak, but at this time, the empress turned her head suddenly, and the frost on her face was even more severe than the cold outside.

"Little Laizi, don't you understand? Your good friend Nightmare is about to unite with the King of Jiaodong to usurp the throne. The empress squinted her eyes and said.

Wang Xiaolai was taken aback: "Nightmare, isn't he a businessman, at best, he has something to do with the royal family, how did he think of coming to take your majesty's throne?" ”

The empress laughed: "Little Laizi, you don't know until now? That nightmare is just his pseudonym, his real name is Zhao Sui, the king of Guangling in Suiyang. ”

When the words fell, Wang Xiaolai was stunned.

"Your Majesty, what you said is true?" Wang Xiaolai asked blankly.

The empress took a deep breath, and then smiled: "Tonight, it's time for them to do it, otherwise, why do you think I want to close the house in Daxing City?" ”

Wang Xiaolai only reacted at this time, and said that he didn't see a door open on the way just now.

It turned out that the empress had already received the news that Zhao Sui and the king of Jiaodong were going to make a coup, but where did they come from the army?

"Your Majesty, why don't you hurry up and order the mobilization of the royal city guards in Urn City to escort you!" Wang Xiaolai said hurriedly.

The empress raised her hand: "No, the fishing nets are collected quickly, and the fish will not be baited." ”

Wang Xiaolai wondered: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?" ”

The empress turned around and came back: "They have been plotting for an unknown amount of time, and before they can show it, exposing more accomplices, how can I feel at ease when I start in a hurry?" ”

Wang Xiaolai understood as soon as he heard it, the empress not only had to pull out the radish, but also bring out the mud that climbed on the radio.

Stretching her waist, the empress whispered: "Camellia, go down and prepare." ”

Camellia snorted and turned to go.

The empress glanced at the room and felt a little uncomfortable, so she said, "Ladies and gentlemen, are you interested, accompany me to the upper floor of Wumen City and drink to the moon?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and they all leaned over and clasped their fists and said, "Obey Your Majesty's will." ”

Seeing this, the empress laughed and walked forward, followed by Liu Maolin and others, the Eight Sages King.

Walking on the royal road, Wang Xiaolai could see the Yulin army working everywhere, carrying arrows and arrows, and carrying weapons and armor.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaolai said in his heart how much of a movement there should be.

I was thinking about it in my heart, when I heard the empress shouting: "Little Laizi, you go quickly, come to my side." ”

As soon as the words came into his ears, Wang Xiaolai looked left and right, hurriedly agreed, trotted a few steps and followed beside the empress.

"Your Majesty, is your movement too big?"

Wang Xiaolai muttered.

The empress smiled and shook her head: "It's not big, it's not big, where is this, do you know, how many rebels are there?" ”

Wang Xiaolai shook his head honestly.

The empress smiled and stretched out her finger: "According to the information provided by Wen Hou, those rebels, the preliminary judgment is that there are seven or eight thousand, and my Yulin army is less than four thousand people in total, how can you stop it if you are not prepared?" ”

"No, isn't there an internal guard?" Wang Xiaolai hurriedly asked.

The empress sighed: "Internal guard? I've sent them out on another mission. ”

"Where's the Dark Guard?"

The empress smiled, glanced at the camellia walking in front, and her mouth was full: "Well, there is only one camellia by my side right now." ”

"Where's Narcissus Mulan?"

"They're both out."

Wang Xiaolai shook his head and muttered to himself: "Your Majesty, you are crazy, you are simply crazy." ”

The empress giggled and asked Wang Xiaolai: "Then tell me, me or Zhao Sui, who is more crazy?" ”

With a mouthful of saliva into his stomach, Wang Xiaolai raised his head: "You two, you're crazy." ”

The empress laughed: "That's right, it's more certain to deal with a madman, or a madman, hmph, he Zhao Sui lost to me three years ago, and today, he still can't win, Uncle Huang, you say yes." ”

The Eight Sages King sighed and could only nod.

Right now, tonight, there will be a river of blood.

···

At the end of the road was a royal mansion next to each other, and suddenly there was a bang, and dozens of doors along the way opened, and Zhao Yu was taken out in a dragon robe python, followed by hundreds of heavily armed house slave workers.

He came out into the street and walked along the stone path, and the rest of the royal family led the family to join in.

In just one street of length, no less than 4,000 people gathered under his hands.

Looking back at the team, Zhao Yu suddenly felt arrogant in his heart, snorted, pulled out the sword he had used to kill the enemy on the battlefield, stepped on the horse that came from the family next to him, pointed in the direction of the palace, and roared: "Everyone, target the palace." ”

A crowd shouted, and the brigade headed in the direction of the palace.
