Chapter 160 The Queen Mother uses a plan
Autumn is crisp and clear.
On this day, the main gate of the imperial city was wide open, more than 1,000 guards held the bright sword halberd and fished out of the two columns, the queen mother Guo's Luan car slowly went out of the palace gate, followed by several palace people to ride the car, the guard of honor meandered, out of the imperial city, straight to the royal temple outside the city.
More than 1,000 guards in armor accompanied them, heavily guarded, the long street had already been cleaned up, and the people were closed for fear of touching the golden drive of the Queen Mother of the Heavenly Family, and none of them dared to go out and walk around.
On the endless long street, everything was silent, and only the sonorous footsteps of the guards and the sound of metal colliding from the impact of iron armor resounded in the sky.
The Empress Dowager Luan drove out of the capital smoothly, and the road to the royal temple was different from other rural principles, and it was also paved flat, and the Luan car walked here without a little bump.
The carriage and horses traveled to twenty miles outside the city, and they were about to arrive at the Jinshan Temple, when suddenly a thunder sounded on the ground, and before the guards could come to their senses, the bluestone slab in front of the queen mother's car was suddenly lifted from the ground, and a black-clothed masked assassin spun around and flew out, and the sword in his hand stabbed straight into the car with lightning speed.
All this happened between the electric sparks, and the assassin was neat and clean, and this cruel sword was enough to kill the people in Luanche.
When the guards were shocked, Sima Chao's face was as usual, and he gave an order to the guards: "Catch the mouth alive." ”
I saw that after the assassin stabbed the person who stabbed Luanche, he didn't have time to escape, and the net had already been covered, and no matter how great he was, he could only be captured.
Sima Chao stepped forward and took off the man's mask, then waved his hand and ordered the thug to be escorted down, and then slowly walked to an inconspicuous carriage behind the Luan car, and arched his hand inside: "Let the Queen Mother be frightened." ”
As the palace people's jade hand slowly opened the car door, Empress Dowager Guo half-revealed her golden face, she smiled faintly, and said to Sima Chao under the car: "Major General Sima expected that these gangsters would murder the palace halfway, you are really clever, and you have the style of a father, and the palace will reward you heavily." ”
Sima Chao thanked him and said: "It's just that this captured person is just a dead man raised by a traitor, and the real murderer behind the scenes, I'm afraid he won't show up easily." ”
Empress Dowager Guo frowned slightly and asked, "Then according to the young general's intentions, what should the palace do?" ”
Sima Chao replied: "This action on the road must have alarmed the gangsters, they are afraid that they will not show up easily, just for the safety of the Queen Mother, the minister also asked the Queen Mother Luan to drive back to the palace, as for the Jinshan Temple, the minister personally went over to cook, catch a few more live mouths, don't believe that you can't bite the people behind the scenes." ”
Empress Dowager Guo smiled slightly, she didn't insist on going to Jinshan Temple, but she didn't say that she wanted to go back to the palace, but replied: "That group of gangsters has a big foundation, it is the imperial city, and it may not be safe. ”
"As for Hongu." Empress Dowager Guo smiled sadly: "The palace is going to move to the royal palace on the outskirts of Beijing." ”
Empress Dowager Guo's decision was beyond Sima Chao's expectations, he was slightly surprised, and replied: "Then the Beijing suburb villa is not prepared, and the Empress Dowager suddenly moved there, I'm afraid something is wrong."
Empress Dowager Guo looked at Sima Chao and said with a smile: "Even what you didn't expect, others can't think of it." ”
As she spoke, she leaned back in her chair and said slowly: "This palace just wants to give them a surprise, aren't their forces all gathered in the Imperial City and Jinshan Temple." Empress Dowager Guo looked at Sima Chao and said meaningfully: "Taking advantage of this opportunity, the young general eradicated them in one fell swoop, don't let the palace down." ”
This queen mother is really scheming and calculating.
Sima Chao thought secretly in his heart, so he hugged his fists and said: "The minister will definitely live up to his mission."
On the side of Jinshan Temple, Sima Chao has already been arranged, and those who enter in advance will not escape even if they have wings, as for the imperial city, on the orders of the Queen Mother, it is a bloody purge.
But these bloody storms did not endanger the Queen Mother in the slightest, she sat back in the Luan car, took a group of guards, and slowly walked towards the Royal Palace located on the outskirts of Beijing.
Empress Dowager Guo sat in the luan car inlaid with gold pendants, she fiddled with the exquisite armor in her hands, the corners of her mouth pulled out a graceful arc, and muttered to herself: "Concubine Meng, Concubine Meng, this palace has underestimated you, and this palace has been negligent, allowing you to recruit golden cicadas to come out of their shells and raise their sons, hey!" It's a pity that this son you worked so hard to raise will be folded in the hands of this palace again in less than two days. ”
"This is the destiny of heaven, Ah Li, don't you say?"
When the confidant female official beside the Queen Mother heard this, she hurriedly replied: "The Queen Mother is right. As he spoke, he said worriedly: "It's just that there is no major general to guard, and the slave is worried about the other side."
"You're worrying too much." Empress Dowager Guo stared at the female official and said slowly: "The thoughts of these villains are in the palace and Jinshan Temple, how could they have thought that the palace would suddenly move to another garden, and when they came to their senses, they were already turtles in the urn, and where could they take care of murdering the palace." ”
The female official chimed in: "The Queen Mother's name." ”
Empress Dowager Guo sighed slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Besides, is the Sima family really reliable?" ”
A sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she muttered: "Now those traitors outside are rebelling one by one, and the Sima family is just a sharp sword in the hands of this palace to deal with the traitors. The ambitions of the Sima family's father and son, can they still hide it from the palace. ”
Empress Dowager Guo came to the other garden with the palace guards.
This royal palace is the only royal palace in the suburbs of Beijing, and it is a summer retreat for the emperor and queen mother, as well as the high-ranking concubines in the palace, and the royal people generally only come here in summer.
Empress Dowager Guo Luan drove here suddenly without warning, and she was caught off guard by the palace and came to take over one by one.
For the reaction of the minions, Empress Dowager Guo was very satisfied.
No one expected her to come to the palace, which proves that this is the safest place now.
Empress Dowager Guo sat on the soft couch in the main hall, thinking in her heart about how to torture them to relieve her hatred after she had wiped out all these gangsters, especially the Meng family, which made Empress Dowager Guo hate her to the bone.
She has fought in the harem all her life and has never missed, and now she has climbed to the clouds, but she knows that she has been tricked, which is a huge shame for a person like Guo who is used to fighting fiercely. So she didn't hesitate to fight and catch the person he hated.
