"Duke Zhou, the queen didn't take you this time, isn't she...... Don't trust you anymore? ”

Zhou Dewei nodded and smiled: "You came to me and sent me a letter, but I didn't pay attention." Liu Ning, a stupid woman, has more than enough scheming and insufficient strategy, she could even think of letting Liu Changqing do this kind of thing, thinking that if she bought Zhao Zheng, the matter would be done? ”

"What do you mean?"

"I'll tell you the truth, even if she kills Qin Chuan, her son won't be able to ascend the throne."

The twists and turns in this are not something that ordinary people can understand.

But Zhou Dewei considered the problem in all aspects, he put down the chess pieces, stood at the entrance of the pavilion, and said worriedly: "There was a sudden change in the palace, Qin Yue ascended the throne, and Qin Chuan was killed, this is a typical usurpation." Can the brothers of the first emperor in the field sit still? Doesn't this give them the truth on the side of the king? ”

The first emperor had only two sons, but he himself had five or six brothers, all of whom were vassal kings.

Among the vassal kings, there are three people with heavy troops, and the edict of Qin Chuan has been sent to all provinces, and the princes know it.

If there is a palace change at such a time, what will the people below think?

The vassal king will definitely occupy the imperial court in the name of King Jinjing Qin, and then think about appointing other people, or simply divide up Great Xia.

"Duke Zhou is really far-sighted, no wonder, from the beginning to the present, you have only assisted the queen on the periphery, and you have not directly participated in the changes in the palace."

"Hmph, am I stupid? This pool of water is deep, I am a very human minister, the slightest mistake will make me fall into the abyss, the queen has her own name and status, she is still the queen of the first emperor, Qin Chuan does not dare to touch her, she naturally has no fear. I can't. ”

As a foreign minister, you must be cautious in your work.

The household servant asked again: "Fang Cai, Zhou Gong said that if you want to discredit Qin Chuan, how to do it?" ”

"What do you think the people outside would think if the queen died at this time?"

"You ......"

"Hehe, the vassal kings from all over the country will definitely enter Beijing and ask the reason. Now that Qin Buyu is dead, it is also an opportunity, and no one can restrain these vassal kings. What Qin Chuan wants is stability, what I want is chaos, and the more chaotic the better. ”

The official's eyes showed a gleam: "You are really resourceful...... However, the queen is in the deep palace, and it is not easy to let her die. ”

Bang - Bang Bang.

Zhou Dewei lightly slapped his palm three times, and from the side door of the garden, a eunuch came over.

This person is the queen's personal eunuch, Xiao Chengzi, and Liu Ning's most trusted person.

"Zhou Gong, he ......"

Zhou Dewei: "Xiao Chengzi, I came to see Yang Shilang from the household department. ”

"The slave has seen Lord Yang."

Yang Shilang knew him, the people around Liu Ning, how could he dare to accept the kneeling of this eunuch, and he jumped up in fright.

"Hehe, Lord Yang doesn't need to panic. Xiao Chengzi is my person now, if the queen can't give it to him, I can give it to him. ”

The eunuch said: "If the master has any orders, the slave will definitely serve." ”

Zhou Dewei handed over a packet of medicinal powder: "This packet of medicine, you take it, put it in the queen's tea, chronic poison, poison after three hours, before you die, you can leave the palace." You can go wherever you want. ”

"Minions understand."

After waiting for this eunuch to go down, Yang Shilang was still uneasy: "Duke Zhou, this person is the queen's most intimate eunuch, how can he listen to you?" ”

"He has been with Liu Ning for more than ten years, and he still can't earn ten acres of land, I gave him a million taels of silver at once, can he not listen to me? As long as it is a person, there is a price, and it is nothing more than a matter of how much. ”

……

The prison of the Criminal Department.

Zhao Zheng was unkempt and knelt in front of Qin Chuan, and he had nothing to love.

participated in the rebellion twice and killed too many people.

Now he only wants to die.

Qin Chuan: "Zhao Zheng, in the last rebellion, you said to Gu that you would assist Gu wholeheartedly. So I'll leave the responsibility of guarding the palace to you alone, right? ”

"Yes."

Zhao Zheng replied excitedly and panickedly.

"So this time, what's going on? Isn't loneliness good for you? Sorry for you? You want to rebel with the Liu family, and even want Lone's life? ”

"Your Highness! - Your Highness, it's not like this, Liu Changqing ...... He kidnapped the wife and children of the criminal general, and the crime will not be able to be completed, in order to protect the lives of his family, it is worth it. The sin general knows that his criminal is heavenly, and it is not a pity to die, and he only asks His Highness to bypass the family of the sin general, and they ...... It's innocent! ”

It's family again, and the ancients liked to play this trick and threaten others with their relatives.

As the saying goes, filial piety comes first.

Qin Chuan: "Alas, in fact, you are also a very good person, but you were just taken advantage of. In your position, when it comes to the struggle for imperial power, it is really difficult for you to do it, and I don't blame you. Tomorrow, you can continue to go back to the palace and be on duty. ”

W-what?!

Zhao Zheng thought that his ears had heard it wrong: "Your Highness, you don't kill the general?" ”

"Why did Lone kill you?"

"Sin will make a big mistake, and this incident has resulted in the death of more than 3,000 people, and sin will ...... Sin is not punishable! I beg His Highness to give him death! ”

"It's good to be able to recognize your mistakes, and who doesn't make mistakes? Just change it. ”

At this time, Zhao Zheng can't be killed, and he is temporarily replaced, the details are not clear, and it is even more unsafe.

Pardoned Zhao Zheng twice, and he will be grateful to Dade.

Leaving the prison of the Criminal Department, Qin Chuan has Yao Cheng, the Imperial Forest Army does not have to be overrecruited again, there are not so many people in the palace now, and Zhao Zheng is still the commander.

"Your Highness, Zhao Zheng rebelled, why do you still use him? It's okay to be humble. ”

"Do you have prestige in the Imperial Guards? Can you manage people? ”

"In time, it will be possible!"

"Now, every minute is a golden hour, it's too late for you to get used to it, except for Zhao Zheng, there is no one else available."

Before the words fell, a fast horse came in front of him, and it was the eunuch Xiao Jin.

The horse's hooves were almost confiscated, and Yao Cheng had to go over to obstruct it, and as a result, Xiao Jin fell off the horse.

"Ouch!"

Yao Cheng helped him up: "Father-in-law Xiao, what are you anxious about." ”

"Big deal, big deal!"

Qin Chuan: "What is it?" ”

The eunuch looked around and put it in Qin Chuan's ear, and whispered: "Your Highness, the queen mother is dead......

Liu Ning is dead, this news is shocking!

Even yesterday's palace change, Qin Chuan was reluctant to kill her, because he was worried that there were too many rumors outside, which would not be conducive to his accession to the throne.

Before he officially reigned in the world, he still had a lot of concerns.

Who would have thought that Liu Ning would die today, and he was poisoned to death, this matter is absolutely uncoverable.

Rushing back to the palace, Qin Chuan's heart was up and down.

"Your Highness, you slow down."
