Chapter 96: Forcing the Palace (I)
"General, the above confesses, please bring someone to the palace to face the saint." The military attache who came to answer hugged his fists.
Xu Wei hesitated slightly: "I don't know whose order it is?" ”
"The last general is only on the orders of his superiors, and he doesn't know anything else. General, please! ”
Xu Wei handed over the soldiers to him for placement, leaving only a few personal soldiers who were escorting prisoners, and then took Gongzi Zheng and others into the palace.
Childe was hidden between the five black-clothed men and the eleven dancers, his head hanging and his face out of sight.
Shaoge took Bang Yue and walked beside Xu Wei.
Entering the imperial city, only to see the endless vermilion city wall, yellow glazed tiles, jade white city wall base and guardrail, under the blue sky in autumn, the imperial city palace group is full of color, with a strong color and momentum, it shows the supreme majesty of the imperial power.
Bang Yue sighed secretly, and followed the customs of the locals, and it was inevitable to kneel today. Just as... Burn incense and worship the Buddha.
The emperor's personal eunuch guarded the white jade bridge outside the hall, seemed to have been waiting for everyone for a long time, saluted, and led this group into the Taihe Palace.
This is the center of power of the Jokhang and the place where the emperor is in power.
When has Bang Yue ever seen such a scene? I couldn't help but look around curiously.
The main hall of the court is much bigger than it looks on TV. The pillars in the hall had to be hugged by two people, painted with vermilion paint, and each pillar had a golden dragon coiled on it, and the dragon was surrounded by colorful clouds.
Only by looking up straight can you see the dome of the palace. The dome is too far away, and only faintly you can see that the entire treasure roof is painted with bright colorful murals, surrounded by several golden dragons, or coiled or sitting, and so on.
In the main hall, the civil and military officials stand on both sides, looking very "small", not densely packed with the entire palace in the imagination, but sparsely lala, scattered between the giant pillars and the giant pillars.
The Luan seat is set up on a vermilion lacquer square platform about two meters high, and behind the throne of the carved dragon is a golden carved dragon screen, on which sits a person wearing a bright yellow robe. Because of the distance, Bang Yue didn't have any hierarchical concept in her heart, so she quietly looked at the emperor.
The emperor's throne is high and far, and there is no amplification equipment in this era, so when the emperors of the past generations choose their successors, the loud voice should be a very important indicator.
Seeing her looking so interested, Shao Ge raised his hand, put it to his lips and coughed lightly, reminding her not to look around.
Xu Wei and the others had already lifted their clothes and knelt down.
Shao Ge carried the moon and bowed to salute.
Above the court, the atmosphere was very strange.
Prince Duan Xuanyuan Yi frowned slightly.
Before the group stepped into the main hall, he had driven the emperor to the end of the road, and was waiting for the ministers to second. At this most delicate time, Lin Shaoge, the prince of Qiwang, Xu Wei, the general of Zhendong, and others came to see him.
Prince Duan didn't care about whether this Lin Shaoge was guilty or not at this time, and he was a little uneasy. Obviously ordered the city gate to be blocked, how did General Zhendong get in?
It is possible to override his orders and let people into the city, unless there is someone in the city with the token of the emperor or the great prince.
The emperor has been in this Taihe Palace, taking care of himself. The eldest prince Xuanyuan went to the evil body to be infected with the epidemic for a few days, and I am afraid that it has reached the time when the oil runs out and the lamp runs out.
So, how did they get in?
That's it. Great things are about to happen, how can you take care of these side things?
He took a step forward: "The minister risked death to impeach him, it is really because the matter is big, if it is kept secret, I am afraid that I will not have the face to see the ancestors and ancestors!" I'm afraid that I have no face to face the people of the world! ”
"The minister seconded the proposal."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
One after another, more than half of the officials stood behind Prince Duan.
He knew that as long as the Queen Mother appeared, the remaining half of the officials who were watching would also follow him.
"Prince Duan, since the matter is very important, how can you put the saint in such a ...... because of a few letters and the words of a few palace people" An old minister shook his head and sighed.
"And the mourning family!" A woman with a cold expression was carried into the main hall.
Her face had begun to age, her skin was loose and drooping, and she looked haggard and old in a high-placked black robe with wide sleeves.
"Queen Mother!"
"The ugly affair between the emperor and the eldest princess of Zhaoguo is known to the mourning family."
The ministers hissed. It seems that today's day has changed.
Prince Duan's impeachment at the risk of death today is already a rebellious act that will become benevolent if he does not succeed.
He got the evidence that the emperor and the eldest princess of Zhaoguo had a mess and gave birth to the second prince Xuanyuan Zhen, who lied that it was from Concubine Yi. broke such a shocking secret, if he couldn't bring down Emperor Xuanyuan Yu in one fell swoop, he Xuanyuan Yi would be a chaotic minister and thief in a different place.
And once this matter is confirmed, the emperor can only issue an edict of guilt and abdicate to make way for Xian.
Xuanyuan Yu only has two sons, the eldest prince Xuanyuan went to the evil body to contract the epidemic, and his life was not long, if the second prince was Xuanyuan Yu and Zhaoguo's rebellion, he naturally could not inherit the unification.
The bloodline of the Xuanyuan clan is only Prince Duan Xuanyuanyi.
With such a God-given opportunity, how could he be willing to miss it?
Although, a palace man sneaked away from the palace and happened to be saved by his henchmen, this palace man just carried such a shocking secret... This matter is a bit unbelievable, but this also just proves that he Xuanyuan Yi is the true son of destiny.
He dared to "force the palace" today, but also because the time and place were favorable.
Chu Lanyi, the commander of the forbidden army, has always been his person, and he has mastered the three-point defense force in Beijing.
The other three points of the capital's defense, the Xiaoma Battalion, are in the hands of Xie Dingxiong, the Duke of Pingguo, and now he only cares about his precious son Xie Tanning, who is imprisoned in the Qiwang Mansion, and has been saying that he is sick for several days.
Jingzhao Mansion was bombed dungeon, and the emperor actually sent Su Qing, who was in charge of Lang Zhongling, who was in charge of four points of defense, out of the city a few days ago, and had not heard the news of his return.
So... The emperor was bare at the moment, with only a group of eunuchs and palace maids around him, as well as a few guards.
Or... This general Jindong who just came to Kyoto from Pingyuan Castle?
The Queen Mother walked towards Luan Seat step by step.
"Emperor, the mourning family hides this secret in their hearts, and they can't sleep peacefully every night. Now that I can't hide it, what should I do... So be it! The ugly thing between you and Xuanyuan Jing is, after all, paper can't hold the fire. ”
"Mother, why do you want to help the fourth brother?" The Emperor's voice came softly.
"Emperor!" The Queen Mother was heartbroken, "It's not the mourning family who helps him!" Until now, still haven't repented?! The eldest princess of Zhaoguo, Xuanyuan Jing, is your own sister! ”
"The royal sister's bones are not cold...... Yi, if you want to rebel, why bother to tarnish her reputation like this? The Emperor tilted his head and turned to Xuanyuan.
"The minister has no such intention!" Prince Duan's posture was straight, "The minister is not a rebellion!" It's just that...... Now that the eldest prince is seriously ill, if there is a case, the second prince is from such a background, it will be difficult to succeed to the unification! The Holy One has been ordered by Heaven to bless all the people, and you must give an explanation to the ancestors and the people of Jokhang in this matter! ”
After that, he lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt in front of the emperor.
The ministers knelt down in unison, and the black-clothed Queen Mother slowly crouched in front of the crowd.
Bang Yue raised her eyes and looked at Lin Shaoge.
Right now... It doesn't seem like anyone will care about them anymore.
He smiled slightly, stepped back slightly, and the two of them hid behind a column.
Bang Yue covered her mouth and said strangely: "The emperor is actually with the eldest princess of Zhaoguo...... also gave birth to a second prince?! ”
"Hmm."
"This ......"
"The original plan of 'Gongzizheng' was to stab this matter at the flower party, which was the 'messing up of human ethics' that he sang to me in advance - by the hand of Xuanyuan Wuxie, the 'imperial nephew'." Shao Ge bent his eyes, "Who knows, the eldest princess of Zhao and Xie Taning, the 'nephew', almost became a good thing, but Xie Tanning was frightened." ”
Bang Yue held his forehead: "It's really a mess." The Queen Mother has always known about this? The emperor is her biological son, why should she help Prince Duan? ”
Shao Ge smiled: "It's probably some unknown secrets. ”
