283 captivity

In just two days, Queen Zhou was like half a lifetime.

Changping Hou and Lu'an Hou Mansion kept sending people to inquire about Emperor Jianyuan's injuries.

Guarding a court without an emperor, Empress Zhou gritted her teeth and did not let go, and directly said that the injury was a little complicated.

Again and again, it attracted the attention of the three Xiangguo.

Liu Xiang personally entered the palace to take a look at Emperor Jianyuan's injury, and Empress Zhou was immediately annoyed: "Does Xiangguo believe in this palace, or does he not believe in the ability of the two marquis mansion doctors?" ”

Liu Xianggong respectfully said: "The lower officials are worried about the injury of Long Live and came to visit, why does the queen mother not believe it?" ”

Although the attitude was respectful, Liu Xiang really didn't believe Queen Zhou in his heart.

The meaning revealed in Lu'anhou's words is that there is more than one good life, and Empress Zhou is likely to hide some news in order to seek benefits for herself.

He straightened his waist and looked at the half-hidden palace door behind him through Queen Zhou's somewhat flustered eyes.

"Niangniang," Liu Xiang said again, "Why don't you see those attendants serving in this hall?" ”

Empress Zhou's wide cloud sleeves clasped her hands tightly: "Long live you need to recuperate, it's too noisy to let so many people go!" ”

Why didn't he leave yet?

If he hadn't come in time, he would have been broken into by this eyeless Xiangguo.

Liu Xiang said again: "Since Niangniang doesn't let the lower officials go in to see Long live, can you see the doctor who heals?" ”

The Son of Heaven was seriously injured, is it child's play, Queen Zhou's current performance is really abnormal.

Queen Zhou's eyes suddenly turned red: "Xiangguo is trying to use the excuse that he can't wake up and force the palace?" ”

Liu Xiang was not frightened by her words, and only said: "Niangniang, can the lower officials see the doctor who treats Banzai?" ”

Empress Zhou took half a step back and said silently: "Yes, Weiyang, please come out to see Liu Xiangguo from the doctor who treated Long Live ". ”

Weiyang nodded before she went out, and Queen Zhou said again: "Bring the four princes in, the palace is just going to discuss some things with Liu Xiangguo." ”

Liu Xiang stood quietly and watched Queen Zhou's performance coldly.

The fourth prince was dragged out of his bedroom by Weiyang.

As soon as Emperor Jianyuan was assassinated, the four princes hid in their palaces and were frightened.

He knew in his heart that he had betrayed Empress Zhou, and now he could only live closely on Emperor Jianyuan.

Although Emperor Jianyuan did not say it explicitly, there was a hint of meaning in the good days of those days.

The four princes have read the history books, they know a little about it, and they don't know how to remember the past dynasties, the emperors in the prime of life and the princes who have become adults, there are always some irreconcilable contradictions, and the last winner is the most silent one.

Isn't it all like that?

The four princes trembled and followed Weiyang to the Eight Treasures Pavilion.

Liu Xiang is asking the doctor of the Lu'an Hou Mansion.

The other party was ruddy and spoke sonorously: "Long live the poisoned arrow, and the officials are working hard to prepare the antidote." ”

If you don't prepare it, it depends on what Queen Zhou means.

Liu Xiang sniffled, and only smelled the smell of wine and spices from the other party, but there was no smell of medicine.

Liu Xianghu glanced at him suspiciously, the other party's eyes dodged everywhere and didn't dare to look at Liu, but his arched hand was raised slightly, and he inadvertently slapped his empty sleeve.

Liu Xiangshu sat up straight, his pupils constricted: "Is there a time limit for the preparation of the antidote?" Long live the poison to wait that long? ”

The doctor didn't answer, and only took his eyes to Queen Suozhou.

Queen Zhou waved her sleeves: "Go down, the palace and Liu Xiang still have important things to discuss." ”

The doctor saluted, glanced at Liu Xiang meaningfully, flicked his sleeves and withdrew.

Weiyang guarded the door, and saw that there was nothing in the house, so he led the four princes into the door.

When Liu Xiang saw this situation, he chuckled in his heart, and believed that Emperor Jianyuan was more auspicious.

Sure enough, Queen Zhou directly put the fourth prince in her arms, and began to cover her eyes with a handkerchief and whimpered and cried: "Liu Xiang, now long live bedridden, there is no hope in this palace." ”

Liu Xiang stood up: "The queen's words are serious, King Ning will return to Beijing in a few days, and the affairs of the court will not be chaotic." ”

Empress Zhou directly pinched off her carefully maintained nails: "Liu Xiang knows that King Ning and the palace have always been on good terms, and when he returns to Beijing, what should the palace do?" ”

"The queen mother is naturally still sitting in the middle palace, and the mother is the world." Liu Xiang is neither humble nor arrogant.

This stupid woman can't wait to fight for power.

Empress Zhou stood up and dragged the four princes to take a step forward: "Liu Xiang, long live the cultivation and pampering of the four princes in the past few days, you are looking at it in your eyes." ”

She wiped her tears and said: "In private, Banzai has said many times to the palace that he wants to appoint the fourth prince as the prince, if King Ning returns to Beijing, the first thing to be afraid of is this youngest brother, right?" ”

Liu Xiang still didn't say anything.

Empress Zhou took a breath and said, "Now Yan Xiang and Sun Xiang are grasshoppers on a rope, trying their best to support King Wei."

Does Xiangguo also recognize that King Wei, who has little ability himself? Or do you want to go against Banzai's wishes and protect King Ning? Doesn't Xiangguo know about the disagreement between Banzai and King Ning's mother and son? ”

Liu Xiang sighed: "Niangniang's heart is too anxious. Not to mention that there is still hope of waking up, you are the mother of a country, and King Ning will not do anything to you even if he has resentment in his heart. ”

As soon as the words fell, the fourth prince suddenly cried in the arms of Queen Zhou.

What Queen Zhou said was right, he was raised in Fenghua Palace, so that everyone knows very well.

"Now that I'm young, my eldest brother may not dispose of me, but when I grow up, my eldest brother will remember once he saw me and remembered that I had threatened his position."

The fourth prince sobbed and said, "Could it be that I was born to be under house arrest? In that case, why did you hold me by your side to feed me, and why did my father teach me personally? ”

As he spoke, he couldn't stop crying.

Empress Zhou listened sadly, and also hugged the four princes and cried: "My poor emperor, if only our orphans and widows are left in the future, how can it be good?" ”

Pulling the long seedlings in the cry, for fear that the penetration power is not enough.

The corners of Liu Xiang's mouth flashed with a sneer: "Why does the queen mother have to be like this? If you get your wish, will you be able to let go of King Ning's Mansion? ”

The winner is the king and the loser is Kou, either you die or I live.

Where did Queen Zhou get her confidence, the two of them should step on the bones of King Ning's Mansion to reach the highest point?

Empress Zhou choked for a while, and then said, "Is Liu Xiang laughing?" With the ability of this palace, where would he dare to find trouble with King Ning's Mansion? ”

Is there less trouble?

If you don't have the ability, you dare to send someone to assassinate King Ning, can you really treat others as fools?

Liu Xiang remained silent.

Queen Zhou also changed her face: "Since it doesn't make sense for Liu Xiang, it's better to stay in the palace for the New Year today!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a team of guards poured into the door, and the clothes were the Jing guards in the hands of the Marquis of Huaiyang.

Liu Xiangdao: "Isn't the queen going to imprison the lower officials? ”

"How dare this palace imprison the elders of the two dynasties?" Empress Zhou said: "The palace just asked Liu Xiang to slowly figure it out in the palace, whether to write an edict to pass on the throne!" ”

Liu Xiang flicked his sleeves: "The prime minister will not write a fake edict, the mother will arrange a warm cell for the lower officials, if I die in the palace, the queen is afraid that she will not be able to bear the consequences!" ”

If you can't get out of the palace today, you will have family members who will report to the Lu'an Hou Mansion and the Wei State Mansion.

Empress Zhou said: "Since Liu Xiang insists on staying in the palace, then the palace can only obey your wishes!" ”
