Chapter 176: Pulling the beam ladder, no household plan
Chapter 176: Ladder-drawing ladder, plan to wipe out the household
The Empress Dowager's voice was not loud, but it still spread clearly in the quiet hall. Everyone was silent and breathless, wanting to hear what kind of answer Zhu Qiyu could give.
Hearing these words, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine. Suddenly he looked up and saw the cold eyes of the Empress Dowager with less expectation.
Zhu Qiyu remembered these eyes. Every time he saw these eyes since he was young, it would make him uncomfortable. He felt uncomfortable all over. He felt like there was something nailed to his body. As long as he could remember, Zhu Qiyu was unwilling to face it.
With these eyes, it was only when she grew older that she realized that she was highly vigilant and wary of anyone and anything that would pose a threat to her brother, Zhu Qizhen's position as crown prince.
When Zhu Qizhen became the Empress of Heaven, her eyes changed a bit, but her eyes that seemed to be able to see through your inner thoughts with one glance at you, and her expression that seemed to be always aloof, made Zhu Qiyu still very
It's uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
But now, she still hasn't changed much. Even that day, when she personally took out the edict of succession written by Zhu Qizhen, her expression didn't change much, as if everything was still under her control.
among.
Yes, indeed, everything was under her control at that time. Before anyone could react, she first established the crown prince and cut off the new emperor's bloodline, and then, she
The blood edict was taken out. At least, Zhu Qiyu felt that this must be the truth.
Perhaps the Empress Dowager thought that after she ascended the throne, she would still be the obedient King Tao, but she only got the beginning right.
But he originally thought that he had broken free from the shackles and became a real dragon, the true emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and that the world was under his control. Zhu Qiyu sadly discovered that one after another, invisible forces, like dense iron chains and
I don't know when the rope had wrapped around my body, making me feel as if I was trapped in a huge cage.
Here, in addition to the emperor who is far away in Xuanfu is the biggest culprit, the civil and military officials in the palace, as well as the empress dowager in front of her, are also one of the culprits. Although Zhu Qiyu doesn't understand how she did it,
, Based on instinct and intuition, Zhu Qiyu felt that it must be related to her, and even what happened to the taiwan, maybe she was the real one behind the scenes.
The Empress Dowager also quietly looked at Zhu Qiyu, who had a complicated expression and flickering eyes, and waited patiently. At least, since she was here today, what difference would it make if she knew the result sooner or later?
, However, this result must satisfy her.

"Mother, I think that the prince will be safer in the capital. Besides, I will ask me, a great Ming scholar, to be the prince's tutor..." After all, Zhu Qiyu didn't have the courage to confront the Empress Dowager Sun, and finally lowered his eyes.
He was somewhat unwilling and somewhat struggling to argue for keeping the prince.
"Does the emperor mean that he does not want all the crown princes to fulfill their filial piety in front of the Supreme Emperor's knees?..." Empress Dowager Sun stroked her carefully trimmed eyebrows and raised her lips slightly, as if she still had everything under control.
middle.
"After all, I feel that it is too much to let the prince leave the capital. Besides, the prince is young and cannot endure the pain of being displaced. If anything happens, my son will be afraid of you, my mother..." Zhu Qiyu lowered his head.
Lower. But the tone is stronger than the previous sentence.
"Yes, the Crown Prince is still young, how could the Queen Mother not know, but will the Crown Prince be safe and sound in the Forbidden City?" The Empress Dowager's voice also became colder, and the originally cool hall seemed to be filled with people.
The cold wind that only appears in the cold winter stung everyone to the bone.
Yu Qian's brows twitched slightly, but he remained silent. Wang Wen was about to speak, but when Fang Zi raised his head, he saw Zheng Neng and other distinguished nobles standing coldly.
Wang Wen's heart suddenly shuddered as a stern gaze fell on him, and the words he was about to blurt out were swallowed back in his throat.
Although the power of the Xungui Group is now weak in the court, they, who hold important military power in the Ming Dynasty, are still a force that no one wants to ignore or offend. More importantly, within the Xungui Group
However, many of them are relatives of the emperor. This group of people usually don't bother to interfere with such nonsense in the court, but if they really want to interfere, the emperor will be very frightened.
Although Wang Wen is utilitarian, he is definitely not a fool. He remembered one thing. There are many of these nobles standing in the court. It was Zhu Qizhen who lowered his face and flicked his three
With his sharp tongue, he persuaded Boyan Temür and Grand Master Wasi Ye first, so that they could escape the hell-like life of prisoners of war and return to the Ming Dynasty to enjoy wealth again.
What's more, speaking out on your own is tantamount to refuting the face of the Empress Dowager. If the Empress Dowager really cares about her, even if the emperor defends her, her position will not be secure.
After all, the Empress Dowager was not a kind person. How could Wang Wen, who had been in power for many years, not hear about it?
Zhu Qiyu's hands hidden in his sleeves were now clenched into fists. He took a few deep breaths, stabilized his emotions, and then slowly said: "Mother, what you said is really... such a thing has happened.
, is not what I want, and what’s more, the culprit has been killed. After this incident, everyone in the palace is frightened, how can anyone dare to do anything wrong again?"
"Haha, the sky is unpredictable... Who knows. How many people in this world don't want the prince to be safe and sound." The Empress Dowager said with a gentle smile, and the sound of the word "天" was bitten hard and hard, and in the end
The sentence was like talking to herself, but her eyes were always fixed on Zhu Qiyu's face. This sentence was like a heavy hammer hitting Zhu Qiyu's heart, making him heartbroken.
Almost stopped.
Empress Dowager Sun slowly took a step forward, about half a foot away from Zhu Qiyu's ear, and said coldly in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "The Ai family hopes that the emperor will agree to reunite their father and son, otherwise
, The Ai family would rather go to the ancestral temple now and hang themselves in front of Emperor Xuanzong’s soul, so as not to see the tragedy of fratricide."
"Mother, you..." After hearing this, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but his face turned cold, his hands and feet were cold, and his eyes fell on the Empress Dowager with a meaningful smile. The determination and coldness between her eyebrows seemed to
It was a hint to Zhu Qiyu that she definitely didn't mean to be joking at all.
