The British prince conspired with the then crown prince and Xuanhu to imprison the first emperor and support the prince's plan to ascend the throne, but he did not inform his daughter in advance.

Because after experiencing the incident in Surabaya Prefecture at the beginning, he has completely understood that his daughter is a useless vase, and it is okay to stay in the palace to engage in palace fighting, and it is better not to tell her about major things.

When the big event was just completed, the palace city was blocked for three days, and the British princess thought that Concubine Shu had nothing else to do now, and the coffin of the first emperor was still there, and there would be no major incidents if he had his own town, so he didn't rush to send someone into the palace to communicate with her.

However, he didn't expect that perhaps it was because of this that this stupid daughter was used and bewitched in a hurry, so that she did such an ugly thing, and it was rumored all over the city.

He believed that something really happened between his daughter and the emperor, because this was in line with his perception of his daughter's lawless and indifferent nature, and also in line with what he had heard of the prince's lustful temperament, combined with the scene at the time, it was entirely possible.

However, he didn't think that his daughter would seduce Dongfang Ming.

It is true that his daughter is stupid and domineering, but it also means that she is arrogant, and she will never be able to do such flattery and humiliation.

So, he was furious.

The angry emperor got cheap and behaved, and shamelessly splashed dirty water on a woman.

However, when the anger subsided and he slowly calmed down, reason urged him to start thinking about the possible truth behind it.

No news is concocted for no reason, and in this core of power, every message will have an implicit meaning behind it.

Did the emperor and Xiao Fengshan do this?

Can you take the opportunity to attack and then bring yourself down? Or can you abolish the imperial brother with such a crime of dirty water?

But, after all, the emperor is also involved!

Could it be that he wanted to take the opportunity to send his daughter out of the palace and cut off his eyeliner in the palace? That's not realistic!

With his status, it is not easy to develop a few eyeliner, so why make such a big fuss?

Just when he was confused, the butler hurriedly came, "Master, something happened!" ”

The British Duke turned his head suddenly, thinking that the emperor's hand was coming, but he didn't expect to hear the housekeeper say: "Surabaya Prefecture and Yunmengzhou are reversed!" ”

"What?"

"The old minister of the Su family is not dead, under the banner of the king of Jiaodong County, he thinks that the first emperor is avenging the first emperor as the slogan, but it is the opposite! Now in the two states of Surabaya and Yunmeng, all the court officials who do not return to obedience and rebel have been detained! The land of the two states is no longer returned to the imperial court! ”

The British Duke stepped forward and grabbed the butler's collar, "Su Zongzhe has been dead for several years, how is it possible!" We have blocked all the main roads from Beijing in Gyeonggi, how can the king of Jiaodong leave it! ”

The housekeeper was so instigated, "Master, this is an urgent transmission to the court for eight hundred miles today, and now that the dynasty is dispersed, it was brought out by the princes of the court." ”

Recently, the British public usually does not go to the court because of concerns about safety, and he really doesn't know about it.

Su Zongzhe.

He thought of the old man in his mind, wise and calm, a little less gloomy and a little more frank than Qin Weizhong, but in people's hearts, he didn't know how much heavier.

If that person is really alive and shouts for the king of Jiaodong County, the court is afraid that there will be big trouble.

I am a little puzzled about whether I can be a powerful minister and a good grandson, a prince, can be stable.

Just as he was thinking about it, the porter hurried over again, "Master, several adults have come to visit together." ”

As soon as the British public heard it, they knew that it was probably because of this.

He hurriedly changed his clothes, came to the living room, just sat down to say a few words, and before he had time to discuss, the porter hurriedly came again, "Master, someone is coming from the palace!" ”

The British Duke had no choice but to invite these people to the side hall to hide for a while, and personally greeted them.

Seeing that it was Dong Liang who came to the mansion in person, he hurriedly welcomed the other party in with a gentle face.

No matter what he planned in his heart, he naturally wouldn't show it on his face.

"My father-in-law came to the house in person, so he must have something important?"

Dong Liang smiled and said nothing, and the British Duke reacted instantly and waved away all his subordinates.

"Your Majesty sent slaves and maids to ask the British Duke to take command and control the three-way army under his command, and to level the rebellion in the three states of Sixiang, Jiuhe, and Langya. Out of trust in the British Father, His Majesty did not issue a direct order, but sent slaves and maids to discuss with the Father-in-law first, I hope you can share the worries of the country! ”

The British Duke frowned, "Isn't it Surabaya Prefecture and Yunmeng Prefecture?" ”

Dong Liang said with a smile: "Your Majesty and the central government have agreed to pacify the north first, and then fight a decisive battle with the anti-thieves in the two states. ”

The British Duke groaned and began to weigh the pros and cons.

If you take it, you have to leave Beijing, and after leaving Beijing, your current momentum of soaring in the court will come to an abrupt end.

But if he doesn't accept it, the imperial court will have a fair reason to take away the military power in his hands, and he is no better than Zhulin, and he can be allowed to have the Jiang family's private army like Wudangjun.

The thought was spinning in his mind, he could recommend the rest of the people who were also nobles to take over, but there was an ancestral motto in the British public lineage, what anyone promised you didn't count, only what you could do counted.

Just like Your Majesty, who has been smart all his life, and finally believed in himself and Xuanhu, and ended up dying early, what if that Xungui who seemed to be his trust secretly fell to Xiao Fengshan?

It's better to keep pinching tens of thousands of elite soldiers!

But is there a way to hold these soldiers and horses without letting go and not leaving the capital?

At this moment, the British Duke suddenly remembered the rumor he had heard not long ago.

Dong Liang pretended to be calm on the side, but in fact nervously observed the changes in the expression of the British duke, not knowing what kind of decision this veritable tiger in the DPRK and China would make.

After a while, he heard the British Duke smile faintly, "There is a rumor in the city today, I wonder if Grandpa Dong has heard of it?" ”

Dong Liang was stunned for a moment, how could such a big thing be involved in rumors, but he was just a palace attendant, and in front of the British duke, one of the best in the court today, there was no room for arrogance, so he had to follow his words when he heard the words: "The slave maid came out of the palace, and I haven't heard any rumors." ”

"Then go and inquire, and if you find out, you'll know."

Saying that, the British public picked up the tea cup, and Dong Liang didn't dare to force it when he saw this, so he had to retreat.

Looking at Dong Liang's back, the British Duke narrowed his eyes.

From this point of view, I'm afraid that this message was really not made by the emperor and Xiao Fengshan, so who could it be?

What is the purpose of the other party?

Not to mention that the British Duke was thinking like a fool at this end, on the other side, Dong Liang walked out of the gate of the Guogong Mansion, and immediately put on the prestige of a great eunuch, and solemnly ordered his entourage to immediately inquire about any rumors in the city today.

A short time later, two of his attendants returned.

"How? Can you hear that? ”

"I heard about it."

"Why don't you say it soon?"

The two attendants, you look at me, I look at you, but they didn't dare to speak for a while.

Dong Liang slapped him one by one, "Dumb? ”

"It is rumored that Concubine Niangniang seduced His Majesty in front of the mourning hall, and His Majesty disregarded humanity and lingered in Zhaoyang Palace."

"What?"

Dong Liang was struck by lightning and stayed where he was.

This is what he personally did for His Majesty, how could it be known to everyone if it was done so secretly?

If Your Majesty blames you, I'm afraid that your good days will come to an end!

"Quick! Back to the palace! ”

He woke up like a dream and commanded the carriage to gallop towards the palace.

In the central courtyard, Xiao Fengshan dealt with a bunch of government affairs that were enough to make people anxious, and rubbed his eyebrows, "Go, send it to Wanxiang, let him use the seal." ”

The guards went out with a stack of papers, and as soon as they reached the door, they bumped into another guard who came in a hurry.

"My lord! Something happened! Somehow there was a rumor in the city today. ”

Xiao Fengshan raised his head, frowned, and waited.

When the guards told the rumors, the expression on Xiao Fengshan's face immediately turned into stunned, and then turned into monstrous anger.

He got up directly and strode towards the middle palace.

——

In the imperial study, Dongfang Minggang sent away the queen's maids.

He glanced at the maid with a little disgust, just like the queen, like a stagnant water, like a bamboo plank, cold and boring.

Let's go to Zhaoyang Palace at night, enjoy the mountains and rivers, and I don't know what new tricks I can play tonight.

Thinking of this, his lower abdomen couldn't help but rise with a fiery mass.

At this moment, a sound of anxious footsteps sounded from outside, Dong Liang rushed to the door quickly, and then reacted violently and turned into a small run.

Seeing this, Dongfang Ming couldn't help frowning, "What's the matter, can the British Duke still beat you?" ”

Dong Liang knelt on the ground all of a sudden, "Your Majesty, for some reason, rumors are spreading in the city today, and they are all about you and Concubine Shuniang!" ”

Dongfang Ming was stunned for a moment, then stood up suddenly, shocked and angry, "How did those people know?!" ”

"The slave and maid don't know, the slave and maid went today, and the British duke did not reply, but just suppressed his anger and asked the slave and maid if they knew the rumors in the city!"

Dongfang Ming took a deep breath, and couldn't help but feel a wave of boredom in his heart.

And at this moment, Xiao Fengshan directly broke into the imperial study angrily and looked at him coldly, "Your Majesty, you are fortunate to be a concubine!" ”

Dongfang Ming was stunned and speechless.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Fengshan knew that the rumors were true, raised his head and exhaled, and said with an expression of hatred: "You are rich in the world, what kind of woman do you want!" Why do you want to do such a thing! ”

"That's the concubine of the first emperor, your stepmother! You do such things, how do you make the world think of you? ”

"Now that the government is unstable, the British public is in power, but you are in the harem, defiling his daughter, what do you want the British public to think? Are you trying to force him to rebel? Can't you tell the difference between the big picture and your selfish desires? ”

"You did it, and it was even rumored that the whole city knew about it, and a palace city couldn't control it, how could you manage the world?"

Xiao Fengshan slashed his head and covered his face with a scolding, and while Dong Liang didn't dare to come out when he heard Dong Liang's atmosphere on the side, Dongfang Ming's expression also changed from shame at the beginning to anger.

He silently clenched his fists in his sleeves, and his muscles were full of muscles.
