One hundred forty-six. Supreme hour
All the plans should be carried out at the time of the fifth watch, at midnight, you can hear a sound like a Qiang flute and a willow flute, ordinary people seem to be too unclear, but many people's children can not sleep all night, especially children under the age of three, crying all night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 There are also elderly people who are anxious, in their experience, children's eyes are the purest and different from adults, they can see many things that ordinary people can't see, so unstable, they must have discovered something amazing. There are even many elderly people who kneel in front of the Buddha statue all night to pray, hoping to avoid this catastrophe.
When the next day went to court, many officials seemed to be in poor spirits, they appeared listlessly above the main hall, and even when the emperor gave orders, they all looked absent-minded, and it was obvious that they had not slept well all night.
The Queen Mother had the same situation, her heart kept beating wildly, and after breakfast, she summoned Gu Mei'er to her palace again, and Liumei'er had dinner together.
King Ruyang almost stayed awake all night, his mood was a little excited, there would be no mistake, Xishan Meiyu was about to be transported to the palace, then his plan would also be implemented.
Everything looked very natural, and the people sent by the King of Ruyang to transport the jade did not find anything unusual, except for the time when it was sent to the Queen Mother's Palace, because the width of the palace gate was not enough, and they waited there for about half an hour before they figured out how to send the jade to the Queen Mother's palace, everything else looked normal, and there was nothing abnormal.
It is placed in the center of the main hall where the Queen Mother lives, and there is no treatment for the time being. But all those who had seen the true face of the jade were a little surprised, the stone was only two zhang wide and one zhang high. Could something that big be a piece of jade? If it is a stone in the shape of a human being, perhaps such a statement can be more acceptable. If it is said that it is jade, no one will believe it.
"That's nothing, whether it's or not, that's what they want, that's right." A hint of pride flashed in King Ruyang's heart. That's true. In order to ensure that there was absolutely nothing wrong with this thing, as early as a few days ago, Lu Zhong specially sent someone to the hometown of the former prime minister Li Qingxiang, took his token, and asked the truth: The jade has always been sealed in a special place, and no one has ever approached it. Even Li Qingxiang himself has always followed the instructions of his superiors, and he has not seen it with his own eyes.
"Is his word credible?" Lu Zhong retreated a little. According to the news from the people he sent out, it didn't seem to be very optimistic, and those charming women could naturally easily ask for the news they wanted from the mouths of those men. Some of them said that the piece of jade was snow-white and had no flaws, while others said that it was a piece of jade that would reflect a jade-like luster when people leaned on it. There has never been a saying that the jade is just an ordinary stone? Could it be that they are mistaken? ”
In fact, there have been all kinds of rumors about that piece of jade for a long time, and those who have claimed to have seen that stone have actually been just quick to speak. Except for Lord Chen, who was entrusted with a heavy task by the emperor back then, I am afraid that no one has seen the true face of that stone. And all of that, naturally, cannot be mentioned to others.
"Do you still have time to bother with that? The important thing is that the jade came back from Xishan jade, and there were no mistakes along the way. A smug smile appeared on King Ruyang's face and he said, "The most important thing is that our plan should start to be executed. I hope you don't disappoint me. ”
Lu Zhong shuddered, he had long known that King Ruyang was a ruthless character, but he never thought that he would switch so quickly, and he didn't even leave himself any respite.
In the middle of the night, there was a low, painful moan in the palace of the Queen Mother, and then the Queen Mother sat up suddenly, and there were words in her mouth, I don't know what to say, the voice was very vague, but the palace maids who served her felt that her voice seemed to be a little more vague. After a while, the Queen Mother shouted: "Water, I want to drink water......"
The person on the side handed the water to the Queen Mother, and she drank it all. Suddenly, as if sensing something, the jade bowl in her hand fell to the ground, and then she grabbed her throat tightly.
"Oh my God, how can this be?" Someone on the side whispered and exclaimed, "Come on, please ask the Imperial Doctor to come over?" Wrong...... Is it a quick please...... Please enter the palace ......"
"That's your plan, isn't it?" The palace maid who exclaimed in a low voice was stopped, and when she turned around, she saw the emperor standing behind her, followed by several people dressed in black, he sighed and said, "You still have that dream that you can't wake up, right?" Relying on the favor of the Queen Mother, he dared to act so recklessly and harmed the Queen Mother's life! You have committed a great crime of rebellion, and the crime should be punished by the Nine Clans! ”
Yan's panicked face turned pale, she opened her mouth, and wanted to say something more, but after all, she couldn't say a word, she sighed reluctantly, and then fell heavily to the ground.
And standing behind her was Gu Mei'er, and there was a face that she couldn't even dream of. She raised her eyes again to confirm that there would be no mistake, that face would never be wrong.
Peace returned to the palace, and the news soon spread through the pigeons. Half an hour later, just when the sky was about to be bright and the hundred officials had already entered the court, a carriage hurried to the front of the palace, headed by the king of Ruyang.
Without any inquiry, after confirming his identity, the person was naturally easily let in. Everything looks so normal, so normal that I even let go of the inspection of the carriage on weekdays, and it seems that my face is really big. A hint of pride flashed in King Ruyang's heart, maybe it was because Yan had already confessed, so things would go so smoothly, right?
The harem is still quiet, but it won't be long before everything will be different. The news of the death of the Queen Mother will soon reach the court, and the ministers will gather outside the Queen Mother's palace. At that time, there will be people who will stand up to testify that there is a dispute between the emperor and the queen mother, because the queen mother is old, so she will be killed by the emperor by mistake, and as long as there are courtiers who stand up and write a book, let the emperor take the blame and abdicate, then everything seems to be logical.
Those people won't do what they say, not to mention that they still have a magic weapon to win. That is after Lu Zhong has been studying for a long time, and has done experiments on many people, to ensure that there will be absolutely no problems.
