At this time, Hou Hai, the captain of the prince's guard, rushed in,

"Empress, there is a traitor entering, please come with me." The emperor said that as long as the empress is in their hands, everything will have a chance of winning.

Li Pianhong smiled faintly, Qiu Feng glanced at the empress, and unexpectedly took out a sword, and a sword cut Hou Hai's neck, and he was killed on the spot.

The door of the Yongning Hall has been opened, Yang Shiming has already thrown the army in to rescue the empress, and Hou Haisuo's subordinates have been annihilated.

All this happened very quickly, and Qiu Feng watched from the side, only to know that the empress had really made arrangements.

In the Zhengyang Hall of the previous dynasty, the crown prince took the empress's abdication edict and read out the empress's abdication, and wanted the ministers to support him to ascend the throne.

But except for the support of the courtiers under the two factions of Hou Wu, most of the ministers did not dare to approve, and the empress had not shown up for nearly a month.

Yang Shizhao, Dong Ji and others all asked to see the empress, and they were willing to believe it when they heard the empress speak in person.

"My aunt is seriously ill and it is inconvenient to come out to blow the wind, this is my aunt's personal abdication edict, how dare you not believe it!" Li Xiao's eyes showed murderous intent, he wanted to kill you first after I ascended the throne.

What Li Xiao didn't know was that now the initiative of the previous dynasty gradually fell into the hands of the empress

Naturally, they didn't believe it! Because this edict was written by the prince when I was persecuted! The crown prince is still underage, and I have no intention of Zen. At the entrance of the main hall, I saw the empress wearing a dragon robe, with a majestic expression, and slowly walked in.

Why did my aunt come?

And the pace is steady, and the face is ruddy, not at all like a poison.

Li Xiao's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Auntie, this edict is obviously written by you yourself, and the seal is also your seal, isn't it?" ”

As soon as the prince's words fell, he saw Yang Shiming behind the empress, and the four flowers beside her were also by his side.

"See the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

When the ministers saw the empress, they saluted one after another.

The empress came in slowly, glanced at the prince, and slowly sat down on the dragon chair.

"Prince, you murdered me with poison, imitated my handwriting, and forged the edict of abdication, you are guilty!" After the empress sat down, her cold eyes swept towards the prince.

The empress had a loud voice and a dignified posture, not at all like a sick person.

Li Xiaoxin's hands were sweating, and he also thought that he had already controlled the inner court, how could his aunt come out? Hou Hai couldn't even look at his aunt.

As soon as the empress said this, the ministers were in an uproar.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that the edict in the prince's hand is fake?" Yang Shizhao immediately asked.

"It's a fake." The Empress replied, "The prince poisoned my wine with the intention of harming me. Later, he imprisoned me in the Yongning Palace, and forged the edict in imitation of my handwriting. Prince, you are ambitious, plotting to usurp the throne, and you still don't kneel! ”

Li Xiao looked at Hou Wu and the others, and immediately said, "Auntie, you broke your promise to your father and wanted to marry Emperor Da'an, this is a well-known thing. I'm just following my father's will and letting you return to power. ”

"When will you see me marrying Emperor Da'an?" The empress asked rhetorically, "That's just a rumor of Fengyue, I never planned to marry Emperor Da'an." This is clearly that you have been tricked by others, and you want to use this excuse to seek a usurpation of the throne! ”

Yang Shiming stepped forward at this time and said, "Back to the emperor, now all the rebellious ministers and thieves in the palace have been punished, and Hou Hai, Wu Yang and other thieves have been killed." ”

When Hou Wu heard this, his body softened, and then he looked at the momentum of the empress, and knew that the general trend had gone.

"Prince, don't you still confess?" The empress scolded.

Li Xiao was very afraid of his aunt in his bones, and when he saw her sitting high on the dragon chair, his body suddenly weakened and he knelt down.

Qiu Feng was by the empress's side, thinking that the empress had a plan, she had held power for many years, and her power in the court was also deep. Thinking about it, if he hadn't lost his guard against Li Xiao early in the morning, it would have been impossible for him to have a chance to take advantage of.

Looking at the situation in the DPRK and China now, she can't help but think, Your Majesty, you are really too worried!

The empress asked the prince to be imprisoned first, and all the courtiers involved were taken into custody.

By the time I could rest, it was already afternoon.

The empress was a little tired before the residual poison in her body was cleared.

"Qiu Feng, you don't have to act in women's clothes anymore, you can change back to men's clothes, I will give you a palace card, you can enter and exit by yourself." The Queen's Road.

"Empress Xie!"

"Now that the palace is peaceful, go back to the autumn breeze! You tell him that I'm all right...... I'm looking for an opportunity to meet him tomorrow. ”

"Yes, Empress."

The autumn wind just left the palace.

Banichi has been paying attention to the movements in the palace and the city, and from noon, he can also feel the changes in the palace.

Today, in the city, the two forces of the city gates tore apart, and finally the Yang family had the upper hand, and now many corpses were transported out of the city gates and the palace.

"I think the Empress should have the upper hand." It is forbidden to report to the emperor.

The Emperor hoped so, but he was still not at ease without any definite information.

Until the evening, Qiu Feng returned, and Qiu Feng reported the situation in the palace.

"The empress's methods are really powerful, she has already planned to come, just waiting for the time to come." Ji Zhen couldn't help but say.

The emperor still did not speak, he was still worried.

"Qiu Feng, you said that the Empress gave you a token to allow you to enter and leave the court freely?" Wonwoo asked.

"Yes." Autumn Wind nodded.

"I want to enter the palace to see the empress, you take me there." Yuanyou Road.

“……”

The autumn wind was startled.

"Your Majesty, this is too risky, and it's easy to spot."

"Yes, Your Majesty, now that the Empress is no longer in danger, in fact, I can go back." Ban one.

"I just went into the palace to have a look, and you disguised myself as your attendant and disguised myself for a while." He said.

An emperor dressed as an attendant?

How did the emperor come up with it.

"Your Majesty, the ministers think it's inappropriate, the empress has just regained her authority, and it is very chaotic to come to the palace, and it is very dangerous to enter the palace now. Your Majesty, it's better to wait for two more days, and the Empress also said that she would come out to see the Emperor. Ji Zhen said.

"Needless to say, Qiu Feng, you take me into the palace." He said.

In fact, since the emperor insisted on coming to Tianfu, until now, no matter how crazy he does, Qiu Feng will not be surprised.

"Okay." Autumn Wind nodded.

Because when the empress seized power, Qiu Feng was by her side, and her face was very raw, and no one suspected that she was from Da'an. The Empress gave her another pass, so she had no problem entering and exiting the court.

Qiu Feng disguised the emperor as an attendant, and after hiding his true face, it was impossible to discover his identity for a while.

So when Qiu Feng took Yuanyou into the palace, he met Cuckoo and Narcissus at the gate of the palace, but he didn't recognize Yuanyou.

The empress is now discussing with Dong Ji and Yang Shizhao, the most important thing is how to deal with the two families of Hou Wu.

The Hou and Wu families were both big clans at the beginning of the founding of the Western Shu Dynasty, and they would definitely be covered with mud if they wanted to deal with it, which was very troublesome.

Yang Shizhao advocated a thorough investigation, while Dong Ji advocated moderation, the empress had already offended many nobles, and it was not appropriate to make more enemies.
