The winter moon is not bright, and for most people, it is vigorous and urgent, but for the Son of Heaven, it is especially long and difficult.

He was in Tangquan Palace, and after seeing the instructions of the twelve Jingwei, in case Huang Tao lost and increased his troops in time, he had to send everyone back first, so as not to send reinforcements in time in case there was a change in the city, but let the palace guards come out by surprise and attack Tangquan Palace.

It was agreed that the city would be closed in the afternoon, and the Son of Heaven was in the Lingshan Guard Camp, and he had not been able to sit still, and he circled around the open city defense and the map on the long case.

But there were sycophants who laughed with him, and repeatedly comforted the emperor's heart: "The saint doesn't need to worry, the empress dowager is a female stream in the end, shallow knowledge, how could he have expected today's incident, Wei Guogong is not in Kyoto, his eldest son Su Xun is a civil servant, has never been involved in military affairs, is recently transferred to Jingwei, but it is just the empress dowager's move, it can't be of great use, that Yu Liu, if it wasn't recommended by the king of Chu back then, has been idle, even if he was reused by the first emperor, he can command the palace guards, and he has never been on the battlefield, what ability can he have?" Huang Tongzhi has always been brave, and after all these years of preparation, he will be able to catch the palace off guard. ”

"I'm worried that Ci'an Palace has already taken precautions, after all, Su Yi was attacked first." The Son of Heaven was full of worries, and he couldn't help but secretly complain that Zhong Guangzhao was not useful.

"The saint is too worried, if the empress dowager is really precautionary, she will not allow the saint to move to Tangquan Palace." The sycophant took it for granted and said: "I will plan first, and I removed Huang Tongzhi from his position." ”

"Although the Duke of Wei Guo is not here, there are still father and son of the king."

The sycophant became more and more disdainful: "To be honest, in the eyes of Weichen, the king of Xian is nothing more than relying on his father's might, the dignified male prince Hehe, the concubine died early, the only son is sick and weak but does not remarry, stumbling on the personal affairs of children, it is really ridiculous, and the king of Chu, although he has some talents, his body and bones are really useless, some time ago, he was seriously ill, and his anger has not eased. ”

I didn't think about who the Son of Heaven was in such a dilemma because of him, and he had to make a desperate bet.

But this flattery is exactly what the Son of Heaven wants.

For a while, I also felt that I had a good chance of winning, so I sat down.

How did he know that Shen Zheng had just passed, so he listened to Huang Tao riding a horse into the camp.

The sycophant was still overjoyed: "It must be the same knowledge that brings back the victory, and the micro-minister congratulates the saint." ”

Soon, when he saw Huang Tao's embarrassed and panicked appearance, he almost bit his tongue, and his face stiffened on his cheeks.

Hearing of the defeat, and it was a fiasco, Huang Tao didn't even find out which city gate was lost and let the reinforcements in, the Son of Heaven was furious, and almost didn't hold back his anger and beheaded Huang Tao in front.

Immediately summoned the two guards of Lingshan and Tongpu, and then the henchmen and guards who had been "cultivated" since he ascended the throne - Jinwu Yulin stationed in Tangquan Palace, with a total of nearly 20,000, and rushed to the Beijing Health Department.

Tangquan Palace was only defended by eunuchs, and of course, the Son of Heaven did not forget to carry such key hostages as the daughters of the Twelve Guards.

Who knew that along the way, even to the three guards, there was only one result - the commander, the secretary, the thousand households and other positions were ordered by the Empress Dowager to Xishanwei!

The Son of Heaven gritted his teeth, and there was no luck at this time, and he was sure that the Empress Dowager had already taken precautions, so she was waiting for him to act.

And the envoys sent to Tongzhou, Xianghe and other guards have not yet returned, and the Son of Heaven is really not sure whether the guards will surrender or not, so he can only make a desperate bet, thinking that he has hostages in his hands, can the Twelve Guards really have no scruples?

We must seize the opportunity to win the hearts of the people and attack the imperial city to master the Ci'an Palace, so as to have a chance.

In front of the Xishan camp, Yu Feng has been waiting for a long time.

It is already the time when the sun is setting in the west, and the glow of the winter moon is only dark red in the west sky, and the north wind is stronger, and it is cold in the body.

The yellow robe is black, the Son of Heaven has a pair of bloody eyes, and everyone supports him, when he sees that the front of the camp is also dense with iron armor, he should ride first, Yu Feng stepped on the golden saddle steadily, and behind him is the twelve commanders Zhu Yi iron armor, and the war knife is in hand.

Seeing the saint, but there is no horse, it is clear that he wants to meet each other!

The Son of Heaven only felt that the qi and blood in his chest were surging, and he had a pair of phoenix eyes, staring at Yu Feng, and the corners of his lips were cold.

Yu Feng was really an iron-hearted rebellion, but fortunately, he led the army, not the king.

It's just a helpless sick and weak.

Yu Feng also smiled - Holy Lord, I am not here to draw my sword to fight with you, our victory or defeat has been clearly distinguished.

Huang Tao angrily reprimanded: "Yu Feng, the king of Chu, when you see the holy driver, don't you kneel down to greet him?" ”

He shouted this sentence, but the scene was still silent.

It was Su Xun who stepped forward on the horse, but he didn't see the salute, but unfolded the yellow scroll and slowly said that tomorrow was guilty.

"Lone Fengyi's order, please return to the palace." When Su Xun's voice fell, Yu Feng ignored the blue and white face of the Son of Heaven, and said neatly but politely.

Although there is the word "please", who knows that the words are forced.

"If I don't comply, what do you want?" The Son of Heaven sneered.

"The sword of the ancestor is here, and I implore the Holy Lord to follow the order." The arm was lightly raised, and the golden dragon was coiled in the sheath, but this time the sword was not released.

Because if you draw a sword, you will kill.

"The Empress Dowager's claim that I usurped the throne is really nonsense, it is clear that the Empress Dowager intends to seize power, and Wei Guogong's accusation against me is also framed, I am forced to do extraordinary things because of the conspiracy of Er and others, and I am intent on maintaining the family law of my ancestors and the surname Yu!" At this time, the Son of Heaven no longer insisted on the "assassin" theory, did not seize the opportunity, and no matter what the argument was, it would not be used.

The Son of Heaven looked around at the twelve commanders with a cold sword: "All the generals are loyal and brave, don't be deceived by traitors." But with a wave of his hand, the wolf-like guards immediately put on a row of female dependents, knelt on the ground, all of them were embarrassed, some were full of dead ashes, some were in tears, and they listened to a "sonorous", and the guards took their cold swords out of the sheath and approached the necks of the women.

The twelve commanders were indignant, and they all clenched their scabbards.

All the relatives, although they are men, have been treated politely in Ci'an Palace, and they have never been humiliated, but the Son of Heaven has bullied weak women like this, but all hot-blooded men will not be calm at this time.

Among the twelve guards, Donghuai Bo is the most strong, and the captives in his family are not only Mrs. Bo and the two concubines, but also the grandmother who has been in her last years, seeing that the old mother was kneeling on the ground and colorless, Dong Huaibo only felt that the vicious waves in his chest were rolling, and he couldn't help but turn over and dismount.

The Son of Heaven was overjoyed, and thought that someone had surrendered.

How did Dong Huaibo turn back, separate the guards, pull out a person, and still knelt on the ground, without drawing his sword, only opening his mouth and pinching the woman's neck: "Reverse the emperor!" If you dare to hurt my family, I will let this woman die on the spot! ”

Dong Huai Bo is completely out of the way.

Huang Tao looked at it, and his eyes suddenly burst into flames.

Because the person kneeling on the ground is Liao Jieyu.

"Dare to rebel!" Huang Tao couldn't help but roar.

Yu Feng said lightly: "Please Queen Mother." ”

Even if the harem concubines, including the queen, kill them in public will not threaten the Son of Heaven, only the Queen Mother has one or two weights, even if the Son of Heaven is unwilling to give up the overall situation for these female dependents, but in full view of everyone, he must not ignore his biological mother.

The Queen Mother did not suffer any grievances, she was still well-dressed and dignified.

But the face, of course, is not so good-looking.

And it was only at this time that Huang Tao woke up to how Liao Jieyu, who was supposed to be in Tangquan Palace, could fall into the hands of the enemy.

In Tangquan Palace, there was Yu Feng Neiying, and when the Son of Heaven transferred all the guards away, and was busy rushing to the guards to threaten the troops, the Jingwei arranged by Yu Feng conspired with Neiying inside and out, and easily rescued the rest of the hostages, not to mention, even the Queen Mother and the Queen were all taken captive.

Even one step earlier than the Son of Heaven arrived at Xishanwei - the Son of Heaven made a big circle, but the hostages and others took a shortcut.

"Yu Feng!" The Son of Heaven was furious, and the cold sword was unsheathed: "You dare to be disrespectful to the Queen Mother?" ”

"Minister, only act according to Yi's orders, and the Queen Mother is also involved, so naturally she must return as well." Yu Feng had no fear.

As soon as the sword of the Son of Heaven came out of the sheath, the twelve commanders stepped forward together, and they all stepped forward, all of them holding the sword horizontally, obviously not being threatened.

Su Xun took the lead and shouted: "Minister, please return to the palace by the Holy Lord!" ”

The 80,000 soldiers behind him shouted in unison: "Please return to the palace by the Holy Lord's decree!" ”

It seems that the Queen Mother is crying and scolding: "You gang of chaotic ministers and thieves ......" but unfortunately, it was completely covered up by Shanhu.

The general trend is gone, and the Son of Heaven only feels a chill on his back.

"Holy Lord, you can retreat to the Xianghe River and find a good solution." Huang Tao was also frightened, but he still didn't want to admit defeat, if he gave up, he only had a dead end, half of his life planned to go to the east, and he had to be pointed out by thousands of people, and bear the infamy of rebellious ministers and thieves, this is by no means his expectation, and he must not stop there.

"The guards obey! The Empress Dowager has a will, and she reads a lot of unclear ideas, if she repents and abandons her weapons, she will never be held responsible, and if she is obsessed, it will be regarded as a rebellion, and she will never be forgiven! Yu Feng raised his voice again.

There was silence at first, and then gradually there was the sound of swords falling to the ground.

The Son of Heaven closed his eyes, and the coldness at the corners of his lips finally turned bitter.

He lost.

The respect of the Ninety-Five, but everyone betrayed their relatives and lost to a woman.

Poor Son of Heaven, until the end he still doesn't know who the real opponent is.

However, under the persuasion of Huang Tao and some of the thieves and immortals, the Son of Heaven finally did not tie his hands and tried to withdraw, and the twelve commanders rushed up, because Yu Feng had already signaled, when the Son of Heaven was discouraged and the other party's army was in turmoil, he first rescued the hostages, and rushed forward with the twelve commanders like wolves and tigers, dealing with the guards of the family members with swords.

Because there is no will of the Son of Heaven, and the Queen Mother must also be taken into account, the Son of Heaven's personal guards are at a loss, of course, they dare not make their own decisions, and the action of rescuing the hostages is smoother than imagined.

Su Xun and Cai Zhen took the lead, directly attacking the rebels, and Jingwei, who had been ambushed in the rear, attacked at the right time to cut off the retreat of the Son of Heaven.

As a result, the Son of Heaven was captured before he could run ten miles.

Huang Tao even had to run farther, but he didn't get rid of Su Xun's relentless pursuit, and was finally caught.

At this point, the coup d'état of Xin Weiri was completely pacified, and it was evening, and the distant mountains were faintly twilight, and the western sky was still faint.

The Son of Heaven was not imprisoned, but placed under house arrest in the Qianming Palace.

The Empress Dowager forced Jiang Qinggu to interrogate overnight - it was also Yu Feng's idea, with the Empress Dowager being forced by life and death, if Jiang Qinggu voluntarily "confessed" to poisoning King Fu and the crime of "exaggeration", the Empress Dowager would be killed.

The Chen family has surrendered, the Queen Mother is not afraid, her life and death have nothing to do with the overall situation, but if Jiang Qinggu can admit the crime, the officials will be even more convinced.

Then there is Qin Ziruo, who was "confessed" by her, and easily arrested the Qin family's collection of live mouths, and also the party Zhou Zhong "suddenly appeared", and the evidence was more and more conclusive, the empress dowager simply asked Qin Ziruo again, the girl learned that the Son of Heaven was not guaranteed, and her soul was scattered in an instant, and when she saw those glittering torture instruments, she immediately sobered up, she was a smart person, and quickly judged that gritting her teeth and not recruiting only a dead end, let alone suffering a torture in vain, immediately confessed to the painting, and confessed how the Son of Heaven poisoned King Fu, But he repeatedly shouted for the family, saying that he didn't know about it at first, but later covered it up for the Son of Heaven.

Of course, Qin Ziruo's second half of the words were selectively ignored by the Empress Dowager.

The next morning, there was an official version of the coup d'état of Xin Weiri - it was because the fourth mother of the Yang family deceived the death of King Fu from Qin Ziruo's mouth, and the empress dowager was suspicious, and found out that Jiang Qinggu and the Son of Heaven had already had secret dealings, and more and more concluded that the empress dowager knew that the old case was known to the Son of Heaven, so she had the intention of seizing power and going against the top, and plotted with the Qin clan's henchmen to assassinate him by taking advantage of the opportunity of naturalization and loss of the army to lead the army to seize the talisman.

The matter failed, and the Son of Heaven knew that his crime was exposed, so he broke the kettle and ordered Huang Tao to force the palace.

As for Jiang Qinggu's admiration for the Queen Mother, for the sake of the dignity of the first emperor and for the sake of choosing the Chen family, it was not disclosed.

Although Jiang Qinggu had personally heard that the first emperor did have an edict to pass on the throne, he knew that if he did not obey the will of the empress dowager at this time, his "personal friendship" with the empress dowager would inevitably be made public, and the empress dowager would have no way to live.

I had to compromise.

But the queen mother did not appreciate it, although she was under house arrest since she returned to the palace, she gritted her teeth and cursed Jiang Qinggu for not dying well after hearing the news.

Of course, this curse came true, Jiang Qinggu could not escape the capital punishment, but Jiang Han and Jiang Wei were pardoned, in fact, those who were punished by the clan because of this coup d'état were only the Qin clan and their in-laws who participated in the naturalization and the coup forced the palace.

The case was quickly concluded, and the Son of Heaven was deposed as a concubine and imprisoned for life.

However, the history of his three-year reign cannot be erased, so although he was not killed, the Empress Dowager consulted with hundreds of officials and decided to summarize King Qing's short imperial career with the name of "thorn".

Yi Zhi on the clouds: do not forget love and stab; Revenge on the stab; Violent and unrelated stabbed; Violent and slow Jiuqing said stabbing.

This word "thorn" is actually a rebuke, and it eventually became the nickname of the abolished emperor.
