In the winter of the second year of Yuanhe, the early dynasty was as usual, and the empress dowager did not feel anything unusual at all.

Until Yu Feng and Yijing entered the palace.

Ci'an Palace was dead silent, such as aunt and Wei Zhao were silent, with a "whoosh", a scroll of paper was spread out on the long case, densely covered with names, Yu Feng explained in detail the recent preparations, analyzed the victory and defeat, the Empress Dowager had obviously heard King Xian mention it, but finally waited until this day, and her expression was naturally not relaxed.

"If the Son of Heaven forces the palace, in order to prevent the palace from asking for help from the various Beijing guards, he will inevitably order the city gate to be closed, and when the Duke of Weiguo leads the troops to go out and transfer some of the Beijing guards, Huang Tao, as a fellow intellectual, has the right to rearrange the city guards." Yu Feng's finger lightly swiped over another long case, the nine places where the Kyoto city defense and the thick ink were restained: "He has worked hard in the past three years, and most of it has been wasted in the current Nine Gate City Defense. ”

Of course, there is also the strong support of the Qin clan's henchmen.

Before Yu Feng was seriously ill, he had a grasp of Huang Tao's actions, and arranged for his cronies to confuse Huang Tao to deceive his trust, and now the people who guard the West City are his eyes and ears, and then when he is unconscious, Yijing is not idle, for the series of Qin's in-laws, distinguish those who are easy to provoke, and later \/ through the efforts of Wei Guogong and Su Jing, several people have been "rebelled", before entering the palace today, Yu Feng has taken the initiative to contact this part of the people, although they did not get the right information, but they were all arranged to guard in the city, It seems that he wants to follow Huang Tao to attack the palace.

Compared with the Empress Dowager, the eldest princess is more able to understand military operations, listening to Yu Feng's coherent analysis, and is very sure at this time: "If the Son of Heaven only relies on the troops in his hands at the moment, it is impossible to break through the imperial city guards." ”

Yu Feng bowed: "Therefore, what we have to worry about is the garrison outside the city, if we can't convince and the Son of Heaven takes the lead, even if Huang Tao is defeated, we can replenish the troops in time, if most of the Jingwei are bewitched by it, the imperial city will be difficult to protect." ”

That's the key to victory.

"It is impossible for all the guards to obey Huang Tao's orders, but the Holy Lord is the emperor in the end."

This is also a difficult point, Jingwei was originally controlled by Wei Guogong, but it was more under the orders of the Son of Heaven, and now because of the border war, the soldiers are outside, and the Son of Heaven has taken his family members hostage, and these people are under whose orders, it is really uncertain.

"Although the Wei command is important, but each thousand households, hundreds of households to follow no one can be negligent, although these personnel ministers have first investigated, but they can't know the details of the hostages in the hands of the Son of Heaven, for fear that there will be omissions in the time." Yu Feng said in a deep voice: "If you can know the detailed list of hostages, the minister can guarantee victory." ”

"So right now, what are the odds of winning?" The Empress Dowager couldn't help but ask.

"Eighty percent." Yu Feng is not humble.

"Eighty?" The Empress Dowager seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Niangniang, with all due respect, two percent is also dangerous."

The Empress Dowager frowned again.

"If the minister has a specific list of hostages withheld by the Son of Heaven, he can conclude that the Son of Heaven has an overall plan, and only then can he be completely sure." Yu Feng said again.

These various military positions are intricately related to each other, and only by finding out the intentions of the Son of Heaven can we take advantage of these micro-opportunities to plan ahead, strive to leave nothing behind, and prevent accidents.

But it is indeed the biggest difficulty to find out the overall plan of the Son of Heaven.

"If it can't be investigated, it has to be stationed only in the suburbs, although the defense army is not enough to worry about, but there is still a case, and besides, although the chief of the palace guard is the mother and mother, it is difficult to ensure that the family of the powerful person will not be seized by the Son of Heaven." Yu Feng added.

That's a tough two percent.

For example, Yu Liu, the second grandson of Concubine Shou, although he is the head of the palace guard at the moment, he is absolutely loyal to Ci'an Palace, but if his subordinates have family members who are detained by the Son of Heaven and block the front of the battle when forcing the palace, it will also cause the military to waver.

If you can know the hostages carefully, at least you can remove the team leaders who are holding these hostages before the confrontation.

Sometimes when the two armies face each other, it is often only two or three of the leaders who hesitate, which will lead to the discouragement of a large number of people.

But there are so many palace guards, even if Ci'an Palace is on guard, it is impossible to order it to be completely eradicated.

In the final analysis, the opponent is the Son of Heaven, not an ordinary person, and this is the biggest variable.

Yu Feng deeply believes that the Empress Dowager is still soft-hearted and has no firm determination to put an end to the coup, but as the prince of the clan, what he should do has been put in place, and he can only wait helplessly for the Empress Dowager's decision.

Eighty percent of the odds are not enough to make people feel at ease, and sometimes it is often the weaker ones who can seize the opportunity.

Once a coup d'état is involved, in fact, the ratio is five to five and a half, and life and death are just two.

When Ci'an Palace was stalemate, there was a rush from Father-in-law Zhan - Chen Xiang asked to see!

Almost out of everyone's expectation, the gift presented by Chen Xiang this time turned out to be a detailed list of Yu Feng's "regretful and helpless" hostages!

The selfish and ruthless nature eventually became the blade of the Son of Heaven's broken neck.

And it is not someone else who ruins the hope of the Son of Heaven and sets the defeat.

At this moment, a group of foreign women who were watching the red leaves in the Tangquan Palace Flower Garden, but were shocked by a group of pro-soldiers, only the queen mother's cold look seemed to be smiling, and everyone was frightened!

What the Queen Mother didn't notice was that the "most confidant" around her, her niece, the current concubine, secretly lowered her eyes.

Early this morning, Chen Guifei heard the Queen Mother mention that the Son of Heaven would force the palace, because although the queen said that she came to Tangquan Palace with her car, it was just that the Son of Heaven was trying to appease the Qin family.

But she felt a throbbing pain in her lower abdomen.

It seems that it is also the first time that the fetus in the womb is clearly sensed to "punch and kick".

Hearing and witnessing, the Queen Mother proudly talked about the plan of the Son of Heaven, and it turned out to be a long-cherished wish fulfillment, Chen Guifei only felt a burst of nausea that was difficult to suppress, and rushed straight to her throat.

What does the Queen Mother think of the Chen family? From beginning to end, the survival of the family is not important, only her son is the most important thing! is like his father, who deserves to die for the Son of Heaven and let himself enter the palace as a concubine, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, his father "died as he deserved"!

Coup d'état, such a major event, the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven concealed it so much!

At this time, I confessed injustice, for what?

Qin Youcheng has been ordered by Ci'an Palace to take a long vacation to serve the sick, and the Son of Heaven must have a heavyweight person return to the court to preside over the overall situation.

That's her grandfather.

But once the Son of Heaven is defeated, the entire Chen family will be destroyed.

It is related to life and death, honor and disgrace, but only informed when the matter is a foregone conclusion, which is not to give the Chen family any way out at all.

The Queen Mother is still so complacent, this mother and son are really cold-blooded.

As the Queen Mother said, this time it will definitely hit with one blow?!

Joke!

Chen Guifei sneered, on the queen's birthday, Chu Xin planned to arrange a conspiracy to trap Princess Chu in a catastrophe, but she was easily escaped, and the Son of Heaven naively thought that this was an accident? It is clear that the Chu Palace's palace has been tightly guarded against him, didn't he ever expect what the purpose of the Son of Heaven was, thinking that the Empress Dowager would be able to protect the Su and Chu mansions without worry?

The naturalization incident, Wei Guogong led the troops to the battle, that is, she and all the women can understand that it is not simple.

Yu Feng, the king of Chu, is known as having no last resort, when Jin Rongzhong planned a coup d'état, Yu Feng was far away in the state, and he could be prepared in front!

The ability of the Son of Heaven is not even as good as that of Jin Rongzhong, but it is in the name of orthodoxy.

Chen Guifei looked at the Queen Mother's confident smile and thought that she had won the battle, and put her palm on her lower abdomen worriedly.

must be for the sake of the child, if the Son of Heaven wins, she will also be allowed to give birth to the fetus in the womb, with the Queen Mother here, with the Chen family, the emperor can at least grow up safely, but if ...... No, she can't see the Chen family fall, she can't expect a slim chance of winning, she must save the child's life.

Well-being is the most important thing.

Compared with the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven, Chen Guifei found that she believed in the Queen Mother more at the moment.

King Kang almost got the crown at that time, but the Empress Dowager also saved King Kang's life, and now he is entrusted with trust.

And the Queen Mother's mother and son have long been blinded by power.

Therefore, when Chen Xiang listened to the instructions of the Son of Heaven, let him return to the court to stabilize the mentality of the hundred officials, and when the great success was completed, he came forward to preside over the direction of public opinion to the Empress Dowager to arrange assassins to kill the monarch and seize power, and even questioned that the so-called written edict of the supervisor was forged by Ci'an Palace, the first emperor was seriously ill, and the empress dowager bribed the first emperor's confidant Zhan Gonggong to steal the military talisman, in order to usurp power and seize the throne.

The Weiguo Mansion is for the tiger, the intention is to promote the grandson Yu Kun to ascend the throne, Yu Kun is young, and he is bound to become a puppet, and the Empress Dowager and Yan and Su will be able to control the government.

Looking at the attitude of the king of Chu, if he is obsessed, he will be classified as a traitor.

Su Yi, the Duke of Weiguo, took advantage of this war with Beiyuan to threaten the generals of Beiyuan to frame, and wanted to blame the Son of Heaven and the Qin family for the loss of naturalization.

Chen Xiang was not decisive enough, and after hearing the words of the Son of Heaven, a cold sweat broke out.

He has been brainwashed by Gu Yuwen and his eldest son, thinking that the Empress Dowager is the grandmother of the Son of Heaven, and what she hates is only the Qin family's henchmen, and she will not endanger the emperor no matter what, and he is really terrified of the Son of Heaven's determination to live and die with Ci'an Palace.

What if things fail...... It's like being in the abyss.

The hesitant Chen Xiang came to see the Queen Mother, naturally he received some teachings, Chen Xiang suddenly felt that he had no way back, now the Son of Heaven is on the bow, it is impossible to stop, even if he does not interfere, once the matter is defeated, can Ci'an Palace let go of the Chen family?

It was Chen Xiang who had no choice but to receive the order.

The concubine offered to give her grandfather a ride.

The Queen Mother agreed, she also knew her father's shortcomings, and believed that the concubine was smart, and with her advice, Chen Xiang would act more decisively, ensuring that the court would not have unfavorable words against the Son of Heaven, and let Ci'an Palace be notorious.

But the words of the noble concubine were to ask her grandfather to hand over a list she had secretly transcribed to Ci'an Palace, and bluntly reported to the Empress Dowager that the Son of Heaven was bewitched by the Qin family and wanted to do a great rebellion, so that Ci'an Palace was cautious.

Chen Xiang was taken aback, and his mind became a complete mess.

"Grandfather, remember that this matter cannot be handed over to the uncle, but must be handed over by you to ensure that the Chen family is not involved." Chen Guifei persuaded hard: "I know what my grandfather is thinking, if the Son of Heaven succeeds, the Chen family will be in power, and maybe I still believe that if I give birth to a dragon son, I will be the prince in the future, how can I tear down the platform behind my back and trap the Son of Heaven at a disadvantage?" But did my grandfather ever think that if the saint was defeated, what would happen to the Chen family? ”

The house is full of beheadings, and the family is ruined!

"If the Empress Dowager is not prepared, even if she knows about this matter now, it will not help, but if the Empress Dowager has taken precautions, and there is the help of Su and Chu, the chances of victory are very small." Chen Guifei made a long story short: "The Chen family must leave a way out, and my grandfather showed sincerity to Ci'an Palace at this time, no matter who wins or loses, the Chen family can protect themselves." ”

The Chen family is not involved in military power, and did not participate in forcing the palace, as for public opinion, it is nothing more than the winner who is expected to control it, if the Son of Heaven can really seize power as he wishes, the Chen family can also build momentum, so that Yan and Su are guilty, even if the Empress Dowager confesses that Chen Xiang has a "betrayal" trip, the Son of Heaven will not hit the Chen family in order to balance the Qin family, and Chen Guifei thinks that the Chen family is benevolent and righteous to Ci'an Palace, and the Empress Dowager is gone, and it may not be that the Chen family will be disadvantaged and let the Qin family dominate.

On the other hand, if Ci'an Palace becomes the ultimate winner, let alone the emperor's throne, the life of the Son of Heaven will be difficult to protect, but the Chen family can only be pardoned because of the timely delivery of the message, which is to draw a line with the coup d'état.

Only in this way can the life of the fetus in her womb be safe and worry-free.

Precisely, when Chen Xiang handed over the letter of the Son of Heaven to Huang Tao in person, he heard that someone reported that the King of Chu and his wife and the old princess had actually entered the palace, Huang Tao frowned and thought about it, suspecting that the King of Chu had taken precautions and noticed that there would be an incident today.

Chen Xiang became more and more frightened, and he did not hesitate, as soon as he entered the palace, he immediately asked to see the Empress Dowager.

And holding the list in his hand, although it cannot be called the key to the decisive victory, it is really crucial, Yu Feng is even more confident.

"Niangniang, in order to hide people's eyes, the Son of Heaven had to let the Queen Mother come forward to meet many female dependents, but we can gather the sons and nephews of these families in a grand manner...... Protection. ”

The Empress Dowager has made a lot of shots - that's it!
