Chapter 235: Forcing the Palace
The capital of the Great Wei Dynasty was once again under martial law, which was another martial law in the capital after the turmoil on the eve of Emperor Wei's accession to the throne.
The people in Beijing have probably experienced this kind of thing a lot, and now even if they are still a little flustered in their hearts, they have also learned to stay at home obediently and not go out to cause trouble at will.
They listened carefully to the sound of horses' hooves trampling on the long street outside, and their hearts beat wildly like drums.
"How, can you hear how many people there are?" Hua Manqing asked her husband in a whisper, she was married early and was a regular employee in the flower workshop.
Both of them worked under Su Hengyu, and because of their hard work and hard work, they were soon promoted to stewards, and then they were later transferred to the capital by Su Hengyu to run a flower dew shop here.
Because they started from the bottom and know the raw materials and production of flower dew very well, it is also the first thing to recommend to customers.
They soon had a place to settle in the capital through their own efforts, and when Hua Manting came to the capital to participate in the imperial examination, they also lived in the house of their sister and brother-in-law.
A few days ago, Hua Manting successfully passed the Jinshi examination, and was appointed as the champion by Emperor Wei in the later palace examination, and he has entered the Hanlin Academy and started to be on duty.
But none of them expected that everything was fine, and Her Royal Highness, who was sent out to run errands, actually met an assassin, and she still doesn't know whether she is alive or dead.
And after Emperor Wei learned that his beloved daughter was assassinated, he immediately fainted with blood and blood, and he didn't wake up until now.
However, what made them feel even worse than these was that King Xiang suddenly gathered a lot of government soldiers and ordered people to close the capital and not allow anyone to enter or leave.
And he brought those armor-clad and bladed soldiers into the palace, saying that the queen had rebelled, and he would enter the palace to quell the rebellion.
Ordinary people may believe this, but some people with some brains can detect that something is wrong.
Not to mention anything else, the queen's only daughter has been named a princess, and in the past few years, the status of the princess has gradually stabilized, and she has continued to make contributions and launched a lot of good things that are beneficial to the country.
Seeing that Emperor Wei was becoming more and more relieved of this daughter, and even had the idea of giving the throne to the princess in advance, the queen didn't have to make such a dangerous move at all, she just needed to wait for her daughter to come back safely.
Even if something really happens to the princess, she is the queen, even if another prince takes the throne, she will become the justifiable queen mother, who dares to be disrespectful to her?
Moreover, the relationship between Emperor Wei and the Empress for many years, the atmosphere between the two has always been very harmonious, and they have never seen them quarrel, nor have they ever blackened their faces to each other.
Such a pair is very harmonious in terms of feelings and interests, and the queen has no reason and no possibility to do anything to Emperor Wei.
But now that His Majesty and the princess have had an accident, King Xiang has somehow trained so many government soldiers under the nose of Emperor Wei, and colluded with the soldiers guarding the capital and the palace to firmly control the city.
On this day, many courtiers were forcibly brought into the palace, and the soldiers who shot were all the soldiers of King Xiang.
What they want to do, people with eyes can naturally see.
And because Hua Manting, the new champion, was very valued by Emperor Wei during this time, even he was forcibly arrested in the palace, and I don't know what will happen next.
Hua Manqing and his wife were lucky, when they realized that the situation was wrong, they were persuaded by Hua Manting to hide, so they were not regarded as family members who could threaten Hua Manting, and were brought back to the palace together.
At this moment, the couple was hiding in the house, only daring to look through the small gap in the door to check the situation outside.
Fu Qin's gaze wandered over the group of government soldiers, and after a while, he straightened up and said to his wife, "I can't hear how many people there are, but we definitely can't deal with them." ”
Hua Manqing slapped her husband: "Nonsense, can I not know this?" I just want to find out how many of these soldiers there are, and if Lord Su comes to the rescue with someone, I may be able to provide them with some help. ”
Although the situation is not good now, Hua Manqing and his wife do not think that King Xiang's plan can succeed.
Su Hengyu has paid so much to support the princess to take the throne, and the two of them have a lot of dark lines in various parts of Dawei in private.
If he really wants to be taken by King Xiang, the first thing Su Hengyu will do is to leave Great Wei with himself and Wei Zining's team and rebuild a country by himself.
They didn't feel worried about this, after all, Su Hengyu had already said that no matter where she went, she would not leave behind the group of people under her hands.
After all, the people she taught, I'm afraid that only Wei Zining and the Great Wei under her control can live well, and if they change the superior on the side, their lives will only become more and more difficult.
They just regretted that they thought that they could have a wise empress on the throne and bring them a better life. If something really happens to the princess, they will have to abandon the homeland of Great Wei.
Both husband and wife thought of this in unison, sighed in their hearts, and then shook each other's hands, trying to draw strength from each other.
At the same time, in the palace, Emperor Wei was extremely angry, with the pale queen sitting next to him, and in front of the two were King Xiang and the soldiers he brought.
These soldiers were dressed in black iron armor, and the weapons they held in their hands made it clear how sharp they would be.
The middle-aged scribe standing next to Wei Shu'an, the king of Xiang, held a roll of bright yellow silk cloth in his hand.
The obvious dragon pattern on the silk cloth made it clear to everyone present that it was a holy decree, a holy decree used to force Emperor Wei to abdicate.
"Yes, what a good son of mine. Not to mention seizing the opportunity, he still raised so many soldiers under my nose. It seems that I am still a little condescending, and I shouldn't let you just be a small official in the ministry. Emperor Wei's words were full of mockery, and he would cough lightly from time to time, and the weakness on his body was very obvious.
King Xiang was actually very afraid of his father, after all, Emperor Wei's strength was obvious to all. If it weren't for the middle-aged scribe who kept pushing him forward, Wei Shu'an really didn't have the courage to rebel while his father was alive.
"Father, you are old, and the imperial sister has also had an accident now. And I'm in the prime of life, and I'm the most capable of these brothers and sisters. I will not do anything to you as long as you leave a seal on this decree......"
"Lone's good royal brother, why are you so looking forward to Lone's accident?"
Before Wei Shu'an finished his threatening words, a group of soldiers and generals came out of nowhere in the hall. As soon as these soldiers appeared, they controlled all the soldiers brought by Wei Shu'an at a very fast speed.
When Wei Shu'an realized that the situation was wrong and turned around, he only saw Wei Zining, who was intact and showed no signs of injury, looking at him with a mocking expression.
