Su Chengxi's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't speak.

Jiang Hao, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, stepped forward, took the letter and carefully checked it to make sure that there was no danger before handing it to Su Chengxi.

After reading it, Su Chengxi sneered: "With so much evidence in front of you, you still don't admit guilt." He Gui, tell me what he made you do. ”

He Gui took a step forward, arched his hand towards Su Chengxi, looked at Luo Baicheng with resentment in his eyes, and said coldly: "Master Emperor, you also have today?" After you forced the old man to configure poison, he killed the old man completely, if it wasn't for the queen's foresight and sent someone to save the old man, how could the old man be dead? ”

He Gui turned his head and saluted Su Chengxi: "Queen Mother, the villain is willing to give it all up, and I also ask the Queen Mother to forgive the villain's family, the villain deserves it, and let the queen deal with it." ”

"You come one by one."

Su Chengxi waved his hand, and He Gui told Luo Baicheng the whole process of threatening him with his family's life to make poison, and the ministers present were so angry that they wanted to rush up and kill Luo Baicheng.

"There are all human and material evidence, so you can't admit your guilt!"

Su Chengxi said angrily: "Come on, put him on death row, so that he can be served!" ”

"Yes, sissy."

A chill spread across Luo Baicheng's spine, and he was completely panicked.

But this is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that he realized in hindsight that Su Chengxi knew everything about what he was doing, and he had a back hand.

After Luo Baicheng was escorted down, Su Chengxi took this opportunity to seek the help of the ministers, and left the ministers in the palace to discuss countermeasures, and sent the ministers out of the palace after an hour and a half.

The news that Concubine Shu and the emperor were ordered by the queen to be put on death row was like a downpour the night before, quickly penetrating every corner of the imperial capital. The concubines in the palace are all in danger, and more than half of the ministers of the court and the central government stood up to voice that the country cannot be without a king for a day and support the voice of the eldest prince to ascend the throne as the emperor, and a small part criticized Empress Su for framing Zhongliang and plotting to kill the emperor, and severely punished him.

The two factions fought separately, and neither of them would back down.

The concubines in the palace, headed by Concubine Hui, came to meet Su Chengxi.

Su Chengxi asked the concubines to be invited into the hall.

Concubine Hui Chen Wanhui quickly walked in with her feet raised, her plain white face was full of haggardness, and she curtsied and saluted: "The concubine meets the queen." ”

Su Chengxi waved his hand and said lightly: "No need to be polite, sit down!" ”

Concubine Hui's eyes turned red instantly, she picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and choked up: "Queen Mother, the concubine came today to ask for something, and asked the queen to open the net and fulfill the concubine." ”

"I don't know what my sister is asking for, and I'll tell this palace about it."

Su Chengxi poured a cup of tea for Concubine Hui and handed it over, and said softly: "Sister, don't cry, your eyes are swollen from crying." If you keep crying, the emperor won't recognize you. ”

When Concubine Hui heard this, she trembled.

Then he took a deep breath, raised his eyes to look at Su Chengxi, and pleaded sincerely: "Queen Mother, even if the concubines are infatuated with the emperor and can't wait to follow the emperor into the imperial tomb for eternal life, they can't bear to send the white-haired people to the black-haired people by the elders in the family." also asked the queen to open the net, so that the concubines could have the opportunity to be filial in front of the elders, and the concubines were willing to repay the queen's kindness. ”

The other concubines chimed in, and for a while the low sobs were endless.

Concubine Hui originally thought that the queen would win them over in order to gain the support of their mothers, but she heard from the queen in the mourning hall that she was going to let them accompany the emperor to the funeral.

Of course, she knew that the queen would not set herself on fire, and really let them be buried with concubines with backgrounds, the Yunsheng Dynasty has been inherited for a hundred years, and the concubines and palace maids who have been buried with no favors, no children, and no maternal support.

Then the queen's intention is to let them take the initiative to surrender.

After Concubine Hui figured everything out, she came to see Su Chengxi as soon as possible.

After all, Su Chengxi has the support of Su Wangjing, the loyal marquis, and Su Huaishan, the general who protects the country, and the only prince of the emperor under his knees, and he will be able to ascend the throne as the emperor in a timely manner.

If they can't see the situation clearly, they don't know how they died.

Su Chengxi admired Concubine Hui's judgment of the situation, she smiled slightly, and said lightly: "My sisters have this filial piety, and the palace is very moved, how can it not be fulfilled?" The deceased is gone, the sisters must not be sad, if the emperor is still there, he will definitely not want to see his sisters become so haggard. ”

The concubine knew that Su Chengxi was planning to let them go.

Chen Wanhui wiped her tears and sighed lightly: "Queen Mother, the relationship between you and the emperor and his wife is the deepest, and the sadness is even more than that of the concubines, but you still have His Royal Highness the Great Prince, you must take care of your health, if you need anything, please feel free to tell the concubines." ”

"Okay, to have my sister so intimate, this palace feels much more comfortable."

Su Chengxi said softly: "These days, you are all tired, go back and rest!" ”

Chen Wanhui got up and retired, and the other concubines also breathed a sigh of relief and followed Chen Wanhui away.

Su Chengxi slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, even if she controlled the fate of the harem women, she might not be able to win over their maternal clan for her use. She had to establish a relationship with those people, give them some sweetness when appropriate, and bind them tightly to her in order to ensure that those people were for her to drive.

There must be no peace in the future, and I hope that there is nothing wrong with her arrangement.

When dawn breaks.

Su Chengxi was awakened, Ru Lan stepped forward in a panic and said, "Queen Mother, it's not good, someone has robbed the prison!" ”

Su Chengxi's face instantly became ugly.

Although she had been on guard, she didn't expect those people to be bold enough to dare to rob the prison directly!

Rulan whispered: "A minister knelt outside the palace gate, threatened with death, and begged the mother to release the emperor. ”

"How can it be!"

Su Chengxi hurriedly put on his clothes, walked out of the Fengwu Palace, and commanded with a fierce look: "Prison robbers, there is no mercy for killing!" Gather the Imperial Forest Army and follow the main palace to the palace gate! ”

"Yes, sissy."

The Imperial Forest Army was huge and resounded in the sky.

At this moment, a child's immature voice came from inside the temple gate: "Queen Mother, where are you going?" Erchen wants to go with you. ”

Su Chengxi turned her head to look, Xiao Yuhuan trotted forward, she noticed that the child was not wearing shoes and socks, and quickly asked someone to bring the shoes and socks and put them on the child herself, then she raised her hand and gently touched the child's head, and coaxed in a low voice: "The queen mother has something to do, can you rest well in the palace?" ”

"Not good."

Xiao Yuhuan shook his head and said with a dependent face: "Erchen doesn't want to be separated from his mother. ”

Su Chengxi's eyes flashed slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he still took the child with him.

Although Xiao Yuhuan is only five or six years old, he is going to ascend the throne as an emperor after all, and he is destined to be different from ordinary children, she whispered to the child to vaccinate: "Huan'er, someone will have a dispute with the queen mother in a while, and it is very likely that he will bleed to death, will you be afraid?" ”
