"This?" Su Yizhao had heard about this before, but she still looked shocked.
"Although the emperor is the prince, the late emperor's favorite was not him, but the third prince at that time. In terms of intelligence, courage and benevolence, in what way does the emperor compare to the third prince?"
"How do you know? This is a big deal to fool the world. We don't want to talk nonsense." Su Yizhao questioned.
"Because the late emperor's edict was in my hands at that time. I overheard that he placed the edict behind the plaque in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, so I secretly ordered someone to steal the edict. The emperor also knew about this, and at that time
It is the emperor who conspired with me."
After the queen finished speaking, Su Yizhao looked thoughtful.
"Did the late emperor specify at that time that he wanted to become a king and inherit the throne? Otherwise, why would you go to get the posthumous edict?"
"Of course it's because the late emperor always favored King Cheng, and was not happy with the emperor as the prince.
When the late emperor passed away, a bachelor of road administration from the Hanlin Academy was present. The late emperor ordered the road administration to wait until he returned to the west before reading out the imperial edict in public. If the throne is passed to the prince, why bother?"
The queen glanced at the emperor lying on the dragon couch, and then tears filled with hatred overflowed from her eyes.
"Obviously, the emperor also experienced the pain of his legitimate son not being liked by his father, but what about the emperor? But he continued this pain. Mian'er is the emperor's eldest son and should have inherited the throne, but the emperor treated him in every possible way.
Picky."
The queen burst into tears, but the hatred for the emperor in her heart was like wildfire and could not be burned away.
"Like the late emperor, who was a fool, he gave everything he had to the woman he loved. He even loved the house and the child that woman gave birth to. I know that when the late emperor proposed marriage, he was unwilling in every possible way, but I also
are you willing?"
The queen burst into tears, "How could I be willing? But after the imperial edict, do I still dare to regret my marriage? As the legitimate son, Mian'er has never taught him personally. He is guarding me and Mian'er every day.
.”
Su Yizhao looked at the queen who was crying uncontrollably, and suddenly felt that this was also a pitiful person.
It can only be said that the arranged marriage created a bitter couple, but in the final analysis, since they became husband and wife, the emperor should treat her well.
She couldn't help but think of Su Wenqing. The Tang family had also been resentful over the years, right?
"You said that the edict was in your hands, so why didn't you deal with it in the first place? Maybe the emperor had a grudge against you because of this incident, thinking that you wanted to use it to blackmail him."
Su Yizhao felt that this posthumous edict was the source of mutual suspicion between husband and wife, and that the edict was like a sword hanging over the emperor's head.
"If there had been no posthumous edict, I and Mian'er would have given way to that bitch and the bitch's son long ago. How could they still live peacefully until now?"
The queen's mind was extremely clear at this moment. If Mian'er was defeated, she would make this edict known to the world.
She wants everyone in the world to know that the emperor's inheritance of the throne is unfair and unjust.
Su Yizhao was curious who the bitch and the bitch son mentioned by the queen were? Recalling that the emperor seemed to be particularly fond of the fifth prince, could it be Concubine Dong and the fifth prince?
"Are you referring to the Fifth Prince and Concubine Dong?"
"Who else is it? I think I don't know that the emperor is so anxious to imprison Lao Wu in the clan mansion just to protect him? Taking advantage of this opportunity, he wants to protect Lao Wu. It's a pity that he doesn't know
He himself doesn’t have much time left.”
After the queen finished speaking, she laughed and shouted that the sky has eyes.
"Did you poison the emperor? Or was it the eldest prince?" Su Yizhao felt that the queen's desire to talk was quite strong today, so he continued to ask.
Perhaps these things have been pressing in her heart for too long, and the queen has nowhere to tell her, so she knows everything.
"I said no, do you believe it?" The queen looked at Su Yizhao, her face full of indifference.
Su Yizhao nodded, "I believe it, my official! Since you have even mentioned it in the edict, there is no need to hide the poisoning."
The queen glanced at Su Yizhao unexpectedly, "It is true that he is not from this palace, nor is he Mian'er. Who knows who among his sons wants him to die? Or, maybe everyone wants him to die?"
"Where is the edict?" Su Yizhao asked directly.
"Ha! Do you think I will tell you? I told you what I told you before, but I thought it was irrelevant, but the edict is my last life-saving thing. Can I give it to you?"
The queen looked at Su Yizhao with a sneer, and then said: "If anything goes wrong with me or Mian'er, the edict will be announced to the world."
The queen glanced at the emperor with meaning, then closed her eyes and fell silent.
Su Yizhao turned back to look at the emperor. He was motionless and showed no sign of waking up.
The palace was in chaos, and the ministers in the capital naturally received the news.
These ministers all rushed to the palace gate not far away, but they did not dare to go any further, because there was a fight outside the palace, and it was not clear who was winning.
Su Jinxun was so anxious that he walked around in the study, "Xiao Qi was called to the palace, and now I don't know what the situation is."
"Father, are the queen and the eldest prince really at odds with each other?" Su Wenzhou was shocked. He did not expect that there would be a palace coup.
"Both the Imperial Guard Command and the Military and Horse Division have already brought their people over, but the tiger talisman for mobilizing the guard station is in the emperor's hands, but why doesn't the emperor mobilize troops? I don't know if such a small number of troops can stop the eldest prince now.
"Su Jinxun sighed.
Su Yijue held his sleeve tightly, he was sitting on pins and needles at the moment.
"Grandfather! I beg you to let your grandson rush to support you with his private soldiers. Xiaoqi is still in the palace, we can't just sit still and wait for death."
But as soon as Su Yijue finished speaking, Su Wenzhou firmly objected.
"No, do you know how dangerous it is in the palace now? You are just a scholar. If you go there, won't you risk your death?"
Su Wenzhou didn't agree. He only had one legitimate son. How could a nephew have a son?
"But how dangerous is Xiao Qi in the palace? I want to save him."
Su Yijue was restless. He and Su Yizhao had been together for so many years, how could he bear to leave Su Yizhao alone?
"The emperor is in charge of the overall situation in the palace, aren't you going to cause trouble?" Su Wenzhou scolded.
However, Su Huai quickly came to deliver the news, "Master, it's not good!"
"What's the matter?" Su Jinxun asked immediately.
"We are surrounded by a large group of officers and soldiers outside. It is said that the seventh young master has kidnapped the emperor and the queen. The eldest prince led the troops to rescue them."
Su Huai touched the sweat on his forehead, his hands trembling nervously.
"Impossible!" Su Jinxun and Su Yijue said in unison.
"Xiao Qi went alone. He didn't even have weapons. How could he kidnap the emperor and the queen? How could he kidnap the emperor and the queen at the same time? The queen was locked up in the harem and couldn't get out. How could Xiao Qi be so capable alone?" Su Yijue
said angrily.
Su Jinxun was shocked. It was obviously the eldest prince who wanted to rebel, but he put the blame on Xiao Qi?
