Ji Zhao became angry and excited. The war in the north of the Great Wall has not yet extinguished, and the war between the brothers in the south will start again. His prince is gone, leaving an orphan and a widow. How can he cope with all this? Even if he can survive the immediate aftermath safely.
The country is in a difficult situation, but the situation of the country is not perfect, leaving such a big problem for the grandson. How to solve all this and what to do?
Ji Zhao's heart was on fire, and at this moment his brain seemed to explode.
The wild dog will not stop fighting! The iron brand organization is rebellious and reckless! The four sons are ambitious! The wolf son of Zhongshan Kingdom is ambitious!
And King Tang is even more hateful!
When will the country be stable?
When will the wild dogs be killed?
When will Zhongshan be leveled and the king of Tang be overthrown?
There is also his own prince and the iron brand organization that should be torn into pieces and reduced to ashes...
Amidst the bursts of severe pain, Ji Zhao screamed and swore crazily in his heart like a curse. Figures appeared in front of his eyes, including the prince, Wang Changsun, Ji Kun, Ji Fa, the prime minister, the King of Zhongshan, the princess, and even Zhu Biao.
Wait. But everyone's appearance is so blurry, even the prince he loves most is blurry, and in the end they are completely mixed together...
"Uh, uh -" Finally, Ji Zhao let out two painful howls. An extremely severe headache suddenly tore open his brain. But he still wanted to see the prince clearly...
Outside the hall, a strong wind suddenly blew up.
"Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician!" The Funing Hall instantly became a mess, and a yellow door shook Ji Zhao's body, crying to death.
Lu Liang rushed in after hearing the panic in the palace, and saw several imperial doctors staring blankly at Ji Zhao on the bed. Everyone's face was ashen. Lu Liang was frightened. He pulled away the imperial doctor and reached for his hand. Finally, he was frightened.
Suddenly he knelt in front of the window.
"You...what are you doing!?" Shi Yiqing led Wang Changsun into the Funing Palace with large steps, followed by the Crown Princess, but he didn't expect that what he saw when he entered the Funing Palace was like this. "Quick,
Please feel the king's pulse and revive the king quickly -" Shi Yiqing screamed at several imperial doctors, but mentally he knew - Ji Zhao was really dead. He knelt down to His Highness dejectedly.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, it's... great!" The chief physician kowtowed vigorously, his voice trembling.
There was a dead silence in Funing Hall. But then everyone woke up with a sharp cry from Ji Yun. Everyone in the hall knelt down.
From Yunqin and Ji Yun to the most ordinary little eunuchs and palace maids, everyone began to cry uncontrollably. Hearing the cries in the palace, the guards on duty and the imperial guards outside all rushed towards Funing Palace.
Kneel down and cry uncontrollably.
And in this chaotic time of grief, no one would pay attention. After hearing the cry, the two eunuchs at the southernmost edge of Funing Hall did not kneel down and cry with everyone, but immediately left softly and hurriedly.
.
In the crosswalk outside the palace, the two of them were separated.
Cai Jueshen, who was on night duty in the former palace, was stunned when he heard the news that Ji Zhao had passed away. But then his eyes gathered with light, and he immediately summoned people to summon the imperial guards. The palace guards closed the palace gates, and at the same time asked for his own
The entourage rushed to the residence of Zhu Biao and the Taiwei.
To be honest, Cai Jueshen's performance as a Taiwei was quite futile. When he was a Taiwei, all the best soldiers in the country were lost in Saibei, and almost all the soldiers in and around the capital were transferred to Luozhou. The remaining imperial troops in the capital were all from the King of Han.
He organized and trained 200,000 new troops, and some of his confidants and cronies were put into the new army. But now the new army continued to leave Peiping and went to Luozhou. When Zhu Biao led the troops back to the capital, there were many people inside and outside the capital.
There are two more branches of military strength, one is the inner Huben camp of Li Yan's tribe, and the other is the outer Bodaoling of Zhu Biao's tribe.
Counting the 8,000 imperial troops in the capital, among these three troops, the one he believed in the most was Zhu Biao, a person with whom he had little friendship.
At this critical moment, Zhu Biao came to mind, which shows that Cai Jueshen is in the capital at the moment. There is no one in his pocket. And the Taiwei is the commander-in-chief of the country's troops. What else can be better than having no troops available at the critical moment?
Is the Commander-in-Chief more miserable and hollow than the Commander-in-Chief?
The king is dead! But tonight's difficulties have just begun. No one can expect what will happen in the middle of the night. Cai Jueshen didn't have time to think too much, and ran all the way towards Funing Palace. He saw along the way
The eunuchs, maids, and guards who knelt down and cried bitterly inside and outside the Funing Hall made his heart feel cold.
Entering the palace, Cai Jueshen completely ignored the eunuchs and others who were kneeling outside, and went straight to the bedroom. No one thought to stop him, so Cai Jueshen walked all the way to the dragon city.
Crown Princess, the eldest grandson of the king?!
Rubbing his eyes in disbelief, Cai Jueshen did not expect that the two people who should be staying in the East Palace at this time suddenly arrived at Funing Hall. The chief elder of the worship hall, who had gone out to run errands in the afternoon, also knelt in front of the bed. Cai Jueshen's
My heart suddenly calmed down.
Looking carefully at Ji Zhao's remains, he must have been in great pain when he died, with his eyes wide open and his face distorted to an almost ferocious state.
Cai Jueshen stared blankly at this face that was completely different from the King of Han's usual face, cried "Wow" and knelt straight on the ground.
"Crown Princess, Your Royal Highness the eldest grandson, I would like to express my condolences. This big event happened late at night. Should I inform the important officials of the royal family immediately, or..." Zhan Shi from the East Palace waited until Cai Jueshen's crying stopped and then came up to report. A single sentence quickly shocked everyone.
Being brought back to reality. Cai Jueshen stopped crying, glanced at this person, then at Lu Liang, Shi Yiqing and others, cupped their hands and said: "Crown Princess, I have ordered the palace doors to be closed tightly. Please pay your respects to the Crown Princess and His Highness the Grand Sun. In addition,
Send capable people to meet the highnesses in the East Palace, and the princess moves to Funing Palace. Then she strictly guards the palace gates and strengthens inspections. Wait until dawn, summon the three ministers, nine ministers, six ministers, and important officials of the imperial court to enter the palace for discussion. As long as it reaches dawn, everything will be stable.
also."
Incidents that occur during the day are much easier to suppress than commotions in the middle of the night. Of course, Cai Jueshen himself wanted to be able to get through the incident safely, but he did not notice that Shi Yiqing's face had changed. Because according to their plan, if the King of Han died late at night,
Then we have to use the throne as bait and lure the crown prince and the king's eldest grandson to declare the imperial court to the palace overnight, so that they can be captured in one fell swoop. Otherwise, if we want to control the entire court, we must divide our troops and go to the mansions of important ministers and dignitaries.
, the movement will be much louder, and the troops will be much more dispersed, and the danger will be doubled.
Yun Qin's eyes were filled with tears and she looked deeply at Cai Jueshen. Yes, he is a 'good official'. Then he choked up and said: "That's the case. With the king's great work, how can there be no prime minister to take charge of the overall situation? Besides inviting the East Palace to
After everyone has moved outside, you must send internal envoys to summon the Prime Minister to the palace quickly!"
Gao Shouxun is an old guy who doesn't eat salt and fat, and Yunqin has no confidence that he will side with his son. However, the prime minister is so powerful that he has no military power in the capital, but there are many connections in the country. Such people must be controlled first.
That's great. And without the Prime Minister outside, the troops on your side will be able to function better, right?
Everyone was smart, and they immediately heard what the Crown Princess meant. She was clearly worried about the Prime Minister! But Cai Jueshen didn't want to make any fuss with the Crown Princess at this time. If he objected, the Crown Princess would be even more suspicious, and would also implicate himself.
On the head.
"According to the order!" Cai Jueshen stood up, then turned around and ordered the affairs of the East Palace, "I will go to the East Palace to invite your highnesses. Princess, move on!" Then he clicked on the yellow door again, "I will go to the East Palace to summon the Prime Minister to the palace. Eunuch Shi,
You will immediately inspect all the palace gates. Anyone in the palace is not allowed to leave without permission. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed! Elder Lu, you are responsible for guarding the outside of Funing Palace to prevent entry and exit."
"Here!" Everyone followed the order and left. Lu Liang was also among them. His martial arts was very high, so high that he could be called the first person in the Northern Han Dynasty, but so what? Now that he has entered the palace officialdom, his status is beyond the ordinary.
, and should not be the word "you" in the mouth of a country's Taiwei.
Then someone naturally directed the chambermaids, and the maids removed the red and green decorations in the palace and replaced them with plain colors such as black and white.
There were many concubines in the harem, and Yunqin also sent maids to inform them. But at the same time, he also ordered that they were not allowed to go out in their own courtyards until dawn.
Cai Jueshen didn't need to worry about these things. He had already done everything he could do, and the only thing left was to keep vigil for the King of Han.
As long as this lasts till dawn, the overall situation of the Manchu Dynasty will be stable. Before dawn, Zhu Biao's army will arrive outside the city, and will even take them back to the six gates of Nanshan, Tingwei's Mansion and Da Nei.
A master. If you want to cause chaos again, you must blatantly violate the edict of the King of Han.
Thinking of this, Cai Jueshen looked at Ji Zhao who was lying on the dragon bed. Unless the three princes gathered together and opened the three keys together, the secret box of the edict of succession could not be opened. That was the last level!
It's midnight, Taiwei Mansion.
The door is open. Between the state and the Three Dukes, it is more valuable to stay up late at night. This is not only the Taiwei's Mansion, but also the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Yushitai.
Ma Mao tilted his body, and the night breeze blew in through the window, so cool!
The sweltering heat of the day seemed to be blown away by the wind.
It was more valuable in the evening. It was more about making a statement, not really having to deal with official documents one after another. It was really boring! Because the king was seriously ill, all the officials had to pray for the king. Although there was a lot of trouble at home.
You can still eat meat and drink alcohol, but in government offices, you have to pay attention to the influence.
When he had nothing to do, Ma Mao could only pick up a pen and talk about the book, flipping through and reading. Several other court officials were also like this. The officers of the Taiwei Mansion and the Ministry of War were either real soldiers or guards.
Dutou, the squad is not as rough as the frontier troops in the north, and they know a few more words.
Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps outside. Ma Mao put down the book in his hand and looked outside in confusion. Did he really encounter some urgent military situation tonight? But he heard the court official outside ask: "Cai Bo? Why are you back?
Are you there? Aren’t you following the Taiwei in the palace?”
Ma Mao's heart tightened when he heard the word Cai Bo. This is the Taiwei's personal bodyguard! He quickly got up and walked outside, where he heard Cai Bo crying: "Where is Mr. Ma, where is Mr. Ma?" Wait.
The next time he saw Ma Mao, he burst into tears and cried: "Master Ma, your Majesty has done a great job. The Lieutenant has an order to lead troops to patrol the streets immediately and collect the forbidden troops patrolling the city!"
"Except Prime Minister Gao and General Zhu Biaozhu, no one is allowed to go out. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!"
