Daming: From the Son of Heaven to the Leader of Comprehensive Martial Arts

Afterwards, the lady-in-waiting explained what she had seen.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty grew up in Hulong Mountain Villa. She used to be obsessed with martial arts. In addition, the owner of the villa held the lady in his palm since he was a child. The lady in the palace was unwilling to participate in the conspiracy. The close connection between Jieyu let the emperor know that these two people were the ones who hit on the empress in the first place."

But I didn't expect that it was Sun Keqing who came yesterday.

"When the Heart Sutra was taken out, there was indeed something on it, and the servants knew that no matter what they said now, the emperor would not believe it, but Jiang Jieyu obviously had another purpose in doing this. Even if she was pulled out to confront her, she would definitely I won't admit it either."

It's just that Xu Yan came to Zhongcui Palace early in the morning, and at that time he had already had a good chat with his empress.

Back then, with such a humble status, Jiang Jieyu dared to arrange concubine Tang casually. She just wanted revenge in her selfish heart.

"My servant knows that even if I tell my mother everything, my mother will not ask more questions, this servant deserves to die!" Cui Xi didn't know what her end would be, but she didn't want to affect her position in the emperor's heart.

Shangguan Haitang never thought that things would be like this.

"Cuixi! How can you be so confused." Shangguan Haitang knew that she couldn't get angry now, it would be bad if she hurt the child, so Zhu Qizhen protected Shangguan Haitang's body at this time.

"Now it's all clear."

This is similar to the news that Zhu Qizhen has now, but what he wants to know most now is why Xu Yan is willing to be used by Jiang Yuyan.

"Take Cuixi down first."

This time, Shangguan Haitang didn't speak again, and Cuixi wasn't as stubborn as before.

The palace of Zhongcui suddenly became quiet. When she went to Zhu Qizhen yesterday to talk about Sun Keqing, Cuixi was quite agitated. She even wanted Zhu Qizhen to have an attack on the spot. It would be best if Sun Keqing could be punished with a capital crime. Because of this, Zhu Qizhen didn't make a move for a long time.

Not knowing what Haitang knew, Zhu Qizhen was reluctant to question, so he had to put all the investigation on Wei Zhongxian.

He is the most pitiful person in the palace.

When he brought people to Yanxi Palace to invite Xu Zhaoyi, he seemed to know that the emperor would order people to come over sooner or later, so he waited here early.

When Wei Zhongxian came over, he was also thinking, how could such a good game of chess be played like this.

Even though Jiang Yuyan was finally ordered to be dealt with by the emperor, the favor she had in front of the emperor no longer existed.

does it worth?

"Miss Zhaoyi, since I have been waiting here so early in the morning, I must know why the slaves have come. The emperor is waiting for your mistress in Zhongcui Palace."

Xu Yan took a deep breath, and followed Wei Zhongxian to Zhongcui Palace. Zhu Qizhen didn't want Shangguan Haitang to participate too much in other matters, so he sat alone on the stone bench in the yard, waiting for Xu Yan.

"Chen and concubine greet the emperor."

Every move is now a rule in the palace, Xu Yan has a sarcastic smile on her face, but she is indeed a little guilty in front of the emperor.

"You go down first."

Wei Zhongxian knew that the emperor was worried about Xu Yan these few days, and Jiang Yuyan was just a plaything.

"Before you said that it was Cao Zhengchun who sent you to the palace to deliver the letter. Naturally, what he liked was your skill, so I kept you in the palace in the right way for you. It seems that it is not Jiang Yuyan who has enmity with the royal family, but Jiang Yuyan. You."

Cao Zhengchun pretended to be clever and thought that he had tricked a little girl who didn't understand the world into the palace, but everything that seemed to be a coincidence was specially arranged by Xu Yan.

"Even if I have thought about countless possibilities, even if Jiang Yuyan will be hacked to death, I don't want this matter to have anything to do with you." The expression on Zhu Qizhen's face seemed to be very hurt.

The news that leaked from the palace before probably came from Xu Yan.

"Someone in the capital contacted you early in the morning, I want to know who it is."

Xu Yan and Zhu Qizhen looked at each other, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Your Majesty, is it important to know who it is?"

Xu Yan was also tempted at the beginning, but it was widely rumored that the mediocre emperor was a thoughtful person. The most important thing is that in addition to being meticulous, he also had a unique patience with her. When he knew that she was close to Concubine Tang , the emperor didn't have any suspicions, and felt that it was for him to share his worries.

"If you don't want to say it, it's okay. You still live in this place, but you have to change the people around you. The rest, you can think about it yourself."

Zhu Qizhen didn't force him to ask, since Xu Yan didn't want to say anything, there would always be someone who couldn't bear the punishment and confessed.

At least between him and Xu Yan, he wanted to keep some dignity in the end.

Wei Zhongxian ordered people to take Xu Yan down, looking at Zhu Qizhen's back, Xu Yan felt flustered, but she couldn't say anything, after all, she couldn't bear the trust of the emperor.

As soon as something happened to Xu Yan, Jiang Yuyan naturally got the news. As long as the money was spent in the palace, any news would be received immediately. But when she heard that Xu Yan went back safe and sound, Jiang Yuyan's His expression was a little dazed.

In front of her was the Heart Sutra that had been transcribed before. It stands to reason that there were two people standing in front of her. Cui Xi was dismissed because she was not able to serve Concubine Tang well. It won't be held against her either.

3Chapter 17 Fireworks

"Bring me the pigeon soup prepared in the small kitchen. I have been with the emperor for such a long time, but I still haven't conceived. Who knows if the child in Concubine Tang's stomach will be a wild species. You will send the news tomorrow. Letting her out means that Concubine Tang is now almost three months pregnant, and she has only entered the palace for half a month, if the ministers of the previous court find out, it should be able to distract the emperor a little bit."

The people who followed Jiang Yuyan went down to do things, and the room was empty, so Jiang Yuyan took out a letter with a faint fragrance from the hidden compartment. Although Jiang Biehe died in her hands, but when she When I took people back to kill, two fish slipped through the net. I originally wanted to find what I wanted in the palace. The emperor is stupid. If she can control it, she will be the overlord of the world, but now the emperor has grown so much that She was startled.

What Jiang Yuyan knows best is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. When she knew that the environment in the palace was becoming more and more unfavorable to her, she should have left, but when she was planning, an unknown letter appeared on her desk. Whoever sent the letter, there were news about those two fish that slipped through the net. I didn't believe it at first, but there were some things that only she knew. In this letter, it was explained one by one. They are all dead, and no one will know unless these two people say it themselves.

If she can leave the palace now, Jiang Yuyan will definitely believe it after researching, but now, she is only one step away from accomplishing what she wants to do, and can deliver the letter to her under the tight defense of the palace. In fact, it can also show that the power in the palace is beyond her imagination.

Before, I thought that the one who wanted to pull the emperor off the horse was nothing more than Zhu ignoring a person, but I didn't expect that the person hiding in the dark would appear when he saw that the situation was getting out of control.

She also knew that Jiang Yuyan didn't care much about the emperor, she just wanted to take advantage of each other, such a cold-blooded person is indeed a good spy.

It's just that it says that if Concubine Tang's child can be lost, she will send that person's hand. This kind of torture is also what Jiang Yuyan hopes for.

But after she calculated for such a long time, Concubine Tang's child was still saved.

At first, I thought Sun Keqing, an idiot, would not stretch out his hand when he saw Concubine Tang slipping, but he was also a fool. The people of the Sun family wished that Concubine Tang's child was gone, and everyone's eyes were on the Concubine Tang's. In terms of body, Sun Keqing also asked for trouble.

These days, Jiang Yuyan drank pigeon soup every day, saying that it is not auspicious for a pregnant woman in the palace to use this, but she wants to do this anyway, it is best for Shangguan Haitang to feel guilty, it is best if the child cannot be kept.

Soon, the pigeon soup was served, but Jiang Yuyan was still thinking how to kill two birds with one stone.

"Today's soup seems to be a bit mellow, have you added any new spices?"

Jiang Yuyan drank carefully, perhaps because she was in a good mood today, so the taste in her mouth became even better.

"The people in the small kitchen know that Jieyu likes it, so they should pay more attention."

The flattering words were good, and Jiang Yuyan felt a burst of relief in her heart.

Before Zhu Qizhen could find out what was going on with Xu Yan, there was a commotion in Chengqian Palace.

"Your Majesty, Sun Zhaoyi almost committed suicide with Bai Ling just now, but the girl beside her rescued her with all her might."

Originally he wanted to get up, but Zhu Qizhen sat back slowly. Although the purpose of the Sun family was obvious, it would not make the concubine commit suicide. He wanted to know that in the inner room, Sun Zhaoyi and Tang What did the concubine say?

"Did the doctor go?"

Wei Zhongxian nodded, knowing that the emperor had a little more love for Sun Zhaoyi in his heart, otherwise such a big matter would definitely cause trouble without the emperor's permission.

"Sun Huaide also left from the Empress Dowager's Compassionate Peace Palace, but there was nothing wrong with what he said. Sun Huaide wanted to make Sun Keqing take the blame. He and the current Mrs. Sun also have a daughter. If Sun Zhaoyi was not a little older, this The one who entered the palace at one time is probably her younger sister."

In the past, it was the queen mother who doted on Sun Keqing, so she had a detached position in the Sun family. Since the Sun family is so impatient...

"Presumably the relationship between the two sisters is very good. Sun Zhaoyi was distracted and did something wrong. Why don't she let her sister come to the palace to accompany her for half a month? It won't be too late to go back when it is better."

Wei Zhongxian

He was a little dazed for a while, but when he understood what the emperor meant, a smile appeared on his face.

"It seems that the emperor has made a decision in his heart."

The more people feel safe, the easier it is to let go of their defenses. If the emperor really wants to find out the truth of the matter, he can just let Jin Yiwei take action. It seems that the emperor knows that the problem lies in the palace, and some unknown forces are spreading their claws. to his side.

As for whether it has anything to do with the fox fairy that is widely rumored in the world, we can only know after further understanding.

"Yes, I think the governor has some prestige in front of the Sun family. The governor will leave the capital in a few days, so the servants will leave this matter to the governor?"

Zhu Qizhen laughed, knowing that Wei Zhongxian was trying to torture Yuhuatian now.

However, it would take some time to get out of the palace, so it would be good to let Yuhuatian go, and by the way, let those in the capital who forgot about the pain know that even if Yuhuatian was going to rectify the navy and go out soon, he would still have some prestige in the capital.

Before Wei Zhongxian could speak, Jin Yiwei, who was hiding in the dark, went to Yuhuatian mansion naturally.

"Since the Empress Dowager is ill, I, as a son, should go and have a look."

In the past, the Empress Dowager was able to control the emperor, so Sun Huaide naturally looked forward to the Empress Dowager, but seeing that the fire was about to burn on the Sun family, there would be conflicts with the Empress Dowager due to the division of interests. Today, I am in a good mood, so I went to tell the Empress Dowager the news in person. up.

"Yes, drive to the Palace of Compassion and Peace."

Zhu Qing, who was guarding the door, should have been sent down by the emperor because he went to Sun Zhaoyi's side to spread the news, but after staying with the queen mother for such a long time, he came out after staying in the inner prison for three or two days. It's been less than half a month since I came to the Empress Dowager, today Sun Shangshu just came here and the Emperor is here, it's really...

"My servant greets the emperor, the empress dowager is having dinner, please invite the emperor in."

Zhu Qizhen took a light look at Zhu.

"Aunt Zhuqing has been by the mother's side for such a long time. Not only has her luck improved, but she has also gained an extra life. It's just that she is in the palace, so she should take care of herself."

The fact that Zhu Qizhen didn't kill them all didn't mean he didn't have the intention to kill people around the Queen Mother.

If you can keep it once, what about the second time?

Chapter 348 Breaking Down Gradually

The corners of Zhuqing's mouth trembled a little, she knew what the emperor meant when she said this, her lips turned white, she could only lower her head.

Knowing that the emperor was coming, when the queen mother saw Zhu Qizhen approaching the door, she beckoned him to come in and sit down.

"The weather is getting warmer these days, but the night is cold, the emperor still needs to be careful."

Zhu Qizhen naturally agreed, and if the queen mother didn't take the initiative to speak, she would continue to act with her.

"The state affairs are busy, and I should accompany my mother to eat every day. I heard from the people in the Compassion Ning Palace that my mother has also contracted a cold these few days. Why don't you invite the imperial doctor over to take a closer look? How many people are there in Baohua Palace?" Taoist priest, it is also good for the queen mother to see."

It was originally an act of pretending to be sick, and the imperial doctor was forced to dare not speak because of the empress dowager's deterrence, but if the emperor asked, whether to tell the truth or continue to lie, it was beyond the empress dowager's control.

"The Ai family is old, and it is only natural to be sick. Knowing that the emperor is filial, there is no need to bother the doctor."

After talking about this, Zhu Qizhen naturally stopped talking.

"Today, the emperor granted Sun Huaide a visit in the Palace of Compassion and Ning. Ai's family is very pleased. They couldn't even get out of bed, but now they can eat more."

Zhu Qizhen also perfunctory: "Although Sun Huaide is only a minister, he is my uncle anyway. If the queen mother is willing, I will show mercy and let people from the Sun family come to visit from time to time. Chengqian Palace is very noisy. Great, I have already ordered someone to go to the Sun family to bring the second young lady of the Sun family to the palace, and it happens to be the time to untie Sun Zhaoyi."

"Is the emperor not planning to pursue Sun Zhaoyi's matter? Concubine Tang's belly is the little grandson of Ai's family."

The empress dowager's expression turned pale, she didn't expect the emperor's hands and feet to be so fast, yes, the current emperor is no longer the same person as before, it is normal to think of the plan between herself and Sun Huaide.

But the people of the Sun family never expected that the emperor would come directly to make a drastic move, and instead of asking the Sun family too much whether they had instigated Sun Keqing to murder Concubine Tang's child, they brought the second young lady who was hiding at home to the palace ahead of time.

As for whether he can get the emperor's love in the palace, it depends on the second lady's ability.

Unlike the two girls of the Murong family, Murong Xian and Murong Shu entered the palace at the same time back then, and their identities were established early in the morning, but now the second young lady of the Sun family comes to the palace without any identities. If he broke the rules in the palace and was sentenced to death, he would be unlucky.

The emperor personally ordered people to invite them, and it was impossible for the Sun family not to let them go.

Perhaps the queen mother was a little anxious by Sun Huaide today, even when she heard that the emperor was going to deal with the Sun family so blatantly, she didn't react too aggressively.

"Your Majesty is considerate, as it should be."

Zhu Qizhen felt relieved when he heard what the queen mother said.

Although the Empress Dowager had unrealistic fantasies in her heart, the imperial doctor also told him that the Empress Dowager's health is indeed getting worse and worse. If she takes care of her carefully, she can live a long life. , I'm afraid the queen mother can't hold it anymore.

In order not to bear too much infamy in the history books, it is also appropriate to show mercy to the Queen Mother.

"The queen mother has been recuperating in the palace for the past few days, and Concubine Xiang Gui has taken care of the affairs of the harem, so the queen mother doesn't have to worry about it."

The queen mother wanted to say something, but when she saw Zhu Qizhen's eyes, she still didn't speak.

"This is the queen mother's favorite quail, eat more."

If you don't listen to what the two of you say, you may still be considered a very harmonious mother and child by others, but it's a pity that in the palace, no matter how deep the relationship between mother and child is, it's too thin.

Until Zhu Qing helped the Empress Dowager back to rest, Wei Zhongxian walked with the Emperor on the gravel road, used to be in a sedan chair, but now walking on flat ground has a different feeling.

"The Fox Immortal's hands are stretched out into the palace now, it seems that I was not careful."

Wei Zhongxian said instead: "Your Majesty, the fox fairy is just a rumor. In the final analysis, it is still people's hearts are not ancient. All exaggerations are nothing but wanting to get something. The Emperor's heart is like a mirror. Such a clown is nothing in front of the Emperor. .”

"Perhaps the moment I sat on the throne, many things were out of control."

Zhu Qizhen stood still and looked at the full moon in the sky.

Wei Zhongxian knew that the emperor always felt that he was being deceived because of Concubine Tang's affairs, but sooner or later the Sun family's affairs would have to be explained, and now the ant on the hot pot was naturally Sun Huaide who had returned from the palace, thinking that he could step on his daughter Unexpectedly, the emperor came up with this method to promote the Sun family to a higher position.

When Sun Qingqing saw Yuhuatian, her calves began to tremble involuntarily. Yuhuatian's prestige in the capital before was not just a joke.

"What's wrong with Ms. Sun? My governor has never been to Sun's house before."

Wei Zhongxian's people were quite respectful in front of him, and Yuhuatian also wanted to help the emperor deal with some difficult matters before he left. Dongchang and Xichang have been hostile for so many years, and the last time it was hard to bear Cao Zhengchun's head If you step up, you still have to maintain the advantages you should have.

Sun Huaide has long had a thing for these traitors around the emperor, but now the eunuchs are in power, but the emperor has packaged these people very well, at least now the ministers in the court know that the affairs of the Wa Kingdom have been settled, and the credit is also due to Yuhuatian The reason is that the people who participated in the East Factory and the West Factory did not cultivate their personal morality before, and the emperor didn't say anything, but the fans from the West Factory came over and clamored, and said that the West Factory and the East Factory are the emperor's subordinates. It's messed up with the imperial court, and the ministers in the capital are really afraid of offending people on both sides. Whenever they go to the emperor's ear to blow wind, it will be miserable if they are framed for no reason.
