Chapter 298: Nightmare
There has been a great change in the palace, the queen and many concubines are trapped in their bedrooms, and Xiao Rongshen has a handle outside the door. Xiao Rongshen killed the emperor, stole the emperor's seal, and mobilized the guards of the forbidden palace to block the entire palace.
The queen was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and suddenly saw Zhao Kezhen come in. suddenly felt a little happy in her heart, but soon fell into a hesitant situation, how Zhao Kezhen had tricked Rong Zhan and Yuan Xi before, the queen knew it. Now that the entire palace is surrounded, she can come and go at will, this is not a manifestation of surrender to the enemy, how can it be explained?
Zhao Kezhen took refuge in Xiao Rongshen?!The queen was taken aback by this thought of hers. Damn, damn it, Rong Zhan snubbed Zhao Kezhen on weekdays, and now Zhao Kezhen will definitely take the opportunity to take revenge on herself, right?
The queen thought about it, so she took out a shelf of the queen of the main palace, and thought of taking the lead.
"How did you get in?"
Zhao Kezhen stood in front of the queen, suddenly burst into tears, and fell on the queen's lap: "Queen Mother, people outside say that the prince and Xu Wenliang conspired to poison the emperor, and the prince has ordered the arrest of the prince, what can I do!"
The queen was startled, and her body trembled like chaff: "You, what are you talking about? What poisoned the emperor and what captured the prince?"
The queen was ready to have a verbal argument with Zhao Kezhen, but she never expected that Zhao Kezhen would come to report her funeral.
"The crown prince instructed Xu Wenliang to poison the emperor, the emperor him, the emperor he has already taken over!" Zhao Kezhen said, and then cried and wiped his tears.
The queen and the emperor were in deep love, and suddenly received bad news and immediately fainted to the ground. Zhao Kezhen rubbed her eyes with a handkerchief and laughed twice. originally wanted to follow the trick of poisoning the emperor with the prince, first designed to let the queen let down her guard, and then find an opportunity to put her sorrow in the water that the queen drank. Now it seems that there is no need for such trouble, Zhao Kezhen hurriedly held the queen in her arms, and shouted at the maid beside the queen: "Why don't you go and ask for a doctor!"
The maids were stunned for a moment: "Concubine Zhao, the gate of this palace is sealed, and no one can get out?"
Zhao Kezhen took a sip: "You are still the queen's close maidservant, the queen has fainted, shouldn't you break into the palace and ask for a doctor?"
A few maids, you look at you and me, and I look at you. They all felt that what Zhao Kezhen said was reasonable, so they turned around and walked out of the queen's bedroom. Zhao Kezhen took out the gourd bottle from her purse, pulled out the cork, and couldn't help but say something, and poured it into the queen.
The queen coughed a few times and slowly opened her eyes. There was still a sad fragrance in his mouth, and he knew that he was drunk by Zhao Kezhen.
"What did you give Hongu a drink?"
Zhao Kezhen succeeded and arrogantly pushed the queen away. stood up, squinted at the queen with cold eyes, and said lightly: "Sad." ”
......
"It's already the seventh edict from the palace, right?"
Yuan Xi looked at the Ming Huang Shangyu stacked on the table, and there was a pair of rice balls in the bowl in his hand. I was worried about this year, but I didn't expect that the fifteenth day of the first month would be tasteless.
Wang Nianen nodded, and put the seventh edict in his hand in the previous stack of edicts.
"The sect master has just been out of Beijing for less than a month, why does the emperor suddenly want the sect master to go back?" Mother Zhong held a bowl of osmanthus rice balls and ate them slowly.
What happened to the capital, I'm afraid no one can say it at this time, although the inner supervisors sent by the capital to deliver the decree were detained by Yuan Xi, but they were very tight-mouthed, no matter how coercive and tempting, the capital in their mouths was always singing and dancing.
Mother Zhong also brought a bowl to Wang Nianen, Wang Nianen looked at the four crystal round rice balls in the bowl, and she didn't have much appetite.
Something must have happened in the capital, and the three people present had a very strong premonition in their hearts about this. But what happened, no one could guess. Before he came to Donglinzhou, the emperor was still in good health, and it would never be time for the emperor to give way, right? Even if the emperor was seriously ill, it should be Rong Zhan, how could he send seven edicts to himself in a row?
This matter is related to himself, but what is it, the herald refuses to say.
Yuan Xi finally scooped up a rice ball, took a bite, and added acacia nectar to the filling, which tasted very sweet and a little choosy. Yuan Xi put down the rice balls, picked up the white tea and took a sip.
"What about the people of the Sixth Master, what do they say?"
Wang Nianen sighed: "It's because of this, I can't get in touch with the capital, and I can't tell the outside of the capital, and I can't even find out the eyeliner of the sixth master, which shows that the water inside is very deep." ”
"What about the Wei family's caravan?"
Wang Nianen shook his head: "It's the same, now the people in the capital can't get out, the people outside can't get in, and the news is all tightly covered." ”
While speaking, the eighth batch of inner supervisors arrived again, Yuan Xi and Wang Nianen glanced at each other, and couldn't help but sarcastically say: "Now that this inner prison has made the power of the prince greater, the people of the sixth master can't come out, and they are diligent in their batch." ”
The eighth edict is no different from the previous seven, except that there are more threatening words in the back, and if you don't obey the summons again, you must deal with it strictly.
Wang Nianen snorted disappreciatively: "How has the emperor's tone changed? ”
Yuan Xi was silent for a while: "I even suspect now that it is not the emperor who made the decree in the palace. Maybe the emperor has been put under house arrest, and someone tricked me into returning to Beijing under the banner of the emperor. As soon as I arrived, I would be firmly detained in the capital. ”
Wang Nianen thought about it along with Yuan Xi's train of thought, and also felt that there was some truth.
Wang Nianen couldn't help but shudder: "Who has such courage?"
"And the prince and the prince of Lijun. ”
Wang Nianen shook his head: "This is impossible, the emperor under house arrest must also have military power in his hands, where did they come from?"
"I don't know. "Yuan Xi can't figure it out, this six princes of Great Chu, except for Rong Zhan who privately raised Ming and Sanwei, who else can have the ability to privately raise an army. Rong Zhan was able to privately raise Ming and Sanwei, and he also got the acquiescence of the emperor, how could others have this privilege?
If it was really Xiao Rongshen who put the emperor under house arrest, where did his soldiers come from? This is terrible, could it be that an army has come out of the ground?
"Don't care about this for now, quickly send someone to Guiyunzhou to ventilate, there are changes in the capital, and in the future, the capital will not be edicted. ”
Wang Nianen responded, and hurriedly went out to arrange for people to go to the Guiyunzhou military camp to spread the message.
Mother Zhong kneaded Yuanxi's shoulders and said softly: "Master, don't be too tired, you are pregnant with a child now, and you are most taboo and tired at this time." ”
Won-hee took the eighth edict. If you read this edict in Xiao Rongshen's speaking tone, this edict will be much more harmonious. Xiao Rongshen is a bastard, even the emperor dares to imprison him, he issued an edict to let him go back, doesn't he want to make a fuss about himself?
"Mother Zhong, you go and tell Tu Bo'an that there is an accident in the capital, and ask him to immediately strengthen the Donglin City, rectify the government soldiers, and then write a military order to recruit the people into the army. Count the treasury of Donglin Mansion, how much silver grain and rice are left, and immediately calculate clearly. ”
Although Mother Zhong is just a servant girl, after listening to such an order, she can still sense the urgency of the matter. Answered, and hurriedly went out to find Tu Boan.
Won-hee pushed away the dishes and chopsticks and lay down on the table. My heart is pounding and pounding, and the wind and rain are coming. Yuan Xi held the soft lower abdomen, the lower abdomen was slightly cold, Yuan Xi frowned: "Don't be afraid, stay in your mother's belly obediently, your mother will protect you." ”
Ling'er brought a bowl of red date soup and sent it to Yuanxi: "Master, go and rest for a while, your face is so pale." ”
Yuan Xi took a sip of red date soup and shook his head: "I don't dare to sleep, lest there be any news for a while, and no one will make up his mind." ”
Ling'er couldn't help but say, and helped Yuanxi to the chaise longue: "Master, how long have you not slept peacefully, if you go on like this, your body can really survive? Besides, even if you don't rest, won't the child rest? If your body collapses, what will happen to the child in your belly?"
Ling'er pulled a fur blanket and covered Yuan Xi's body: "Old people often say that you need to warm your body, but you are like this now, relying on supplements every day to hang your spirit, but it is not the way to maintain health." ”
Yuan Xi leaned on the soft pillow behind him, only felt a little weak on his body, closed his eyes lightly and said, "Where is it so delicate?"
Yuan Xi closed her eyes and fell asleep in a moment, Ling'er smiled helplessly, if she didn't tell her to rest, I was afraid that she wouldn't take care of her body.
Ling'er moved a small stool and sat next to Yuanxi to accompany her. Ling'er propped her face and looked at the sleeping Yuanxi, as if she was serving the young lady in the Wei Mansion when she was a child. Alas, the master is really pitiful, born to work hard.
Ling'er sat for a while, lying next to Yuan Xi and sleepy.
"Queen Mother...... Father......
Ling'er heard Yuanxi's murmuring and sat up suddenly, Yuanxi was still asleep, his eyebrows were frowning, like a nightmare. Ling'er patted her lightly on the shoulder: "Miss, Miss, wake up." ”
"Ahh
Ling'er was taken aback: "Miss, what's wrong with you, do you have a stomachache?"
Yuan Xi shook his head, his mind was still immersed in the dream just now, what kind of dream was it, it was terrible. Ling'er brought the bowl of warm jujube soup, and Yuan Xi took a few sips, suppressing the shock.
"The child is fine, I had a dream. ”
"Did Miss dream of the emperor and the queen?" asked Ling'er.
"I dreamed of my father, and my father came to me, and gradually, his face turned black and purple, and his mouth spat blood. The queen mother shrank in a corner, and no matter what I called her, she would ignore me. ”
Ling'er was stunned for a while, what kind of dream is this, although it is said that the dream is the opposite, but this dream is too strange, as if the ghosts and gods in the book are dreaming.
Ling'er rubbed Yuanxi's back: "Miss, will you have such a dream because you are too worried about the capital?"
