"One assassinated and the other blocked. The two of them worked together very well."
The queen laughed angrily, while Yuyao looked helpless.
Long Chen remained silent...
I sneaked into Xingqing City for this purpose, and now it has finally taken shape.
When news spread that the queen was about to die, Long Chen instigated Concubine Li, who thought that Xiao Lizi was in the middle palace and wanted to kill the queen.
The queen thought that her belly was caused by Concubine Li, and wanted to get rid of Concubine Li.
Shi Yuncheng thought he had encountered a golden opportunity and wanted to profit from it.
The three parties' forces converged and the situation became extremely tense.
"Concubine Li really doesn't know how to live or die. The queen really has her own strengths and weaknesses. She can't get away with the crime of causing rebellion."
Yuyao cursed fiercely.
But Long Chen suddenly said: "Madam, this afternoon, Hong'er said something to Wei Chen..."
The queen and Yu Yao looked at Long Chen at the same time, waiting for him to tell what was going on.
"Hong'er said that Xiao Lizi is in the imperial concubine's palace, and most of the things that happened to the empress were done by Xiao Lizi."
"Also, Xiao Lizi and the imperial concubine are living happily. In the past, Xueer was tricked into being silenced by the imperial concubine in Jingzhao Mansion because she found out about the imperial concubine's scandal."
"Hong'er has also found out now. She is very scared and wants to beg the queen to save her life."
The queen stood up and cursed angrily: "It is indeed this bitch! How dare you do such evil things!"
"Bitch, bitch! You dare to stay in the palace and have an affair! How unreasonable!"
Yuyao then angrily called Concubine Li a bitch.
Long Chen remained silent, and after a while he said: "My Lady, the concubine kept the little plum, which is her trump card."
"Even if the imperial concubine invades the middle palace and murders the empress, she can still tell the king that the empress has committed adultery in the harem. She wants to clean up the harem." 81Zw.????m
"Concubine Li dares to be so arrogant and domineering because of Little Plum."
"If we don't take a preemptive strike and kill Concubine Li and Xiao Lizi, the empress... will be in danger!"
The queen's expression was ugly, and Long Chen's words touched the queen's fatal point.
If Concubine Li used this as an excuse, I am afraid that Shi Le would not punish Concubine Li severely, and might even appreciate Concubine Li's actions.
Yuyao said helplessly: "But now we have no soldiers and horses. You proposed to let Yan Xifeng take over the Forbidden Army, but Yan Xifeng cannot take over at all."
"He told me that Zhou Hao and the second prince are too powerful and firmly control the Forbidden Army, and he cannot shake them at all."
"What we are facing now is a dead game. How can we preemptively strike?"
Long Chen got up and walked around the dormitory, thinking about the current situation.
Before, Long Chen did think of the problem simply, or in other words, he looked down upon the queen.
I thought it would be easy to seize the imperial army based on the queen's reputation, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult.
After thinking for a long time, Long Chen said: "My dear, I have a plan."
The queen was overjoyed and stood up and asked: "Say it quickly!"
Long Chen walked to the queen's side and whispered: "So so..."
After hearing this, the queen nodded happily and said: "It's a good plan, I'll do what you said."
Long Chen said: "Then I will go back first, and tomorrow the empress will act according to her plan."
Long Chen exited the dormitory and returned home.
Yuyao came over and asked: "Mother, what did Liu Feng say?"
The queen ordered: "If you do this..."
...
In the imperial concubine's palace.
Hong'er hurriedly came in and said, "Your Majesty, Master Fu Yin's messenger is here."
Concubine Li Guifei had already fallen asleep. When she heard that Li Guangliang's messenger had arrived, she immediately got up, sat on the edge of the bed, and said, "Come in!"
Hong'er immediately brought a woman in.
The woman bowed and said, "My slave, I pay my respects to the noble concubine."
Concubine Li said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, what do you say?"
The woman took out a bamboo tube from her arms and presented it.
Hong'er took the bamboo tube and presented it to Concubine Li.
Concubine Li opened it and looked at it, her face suddenly changed, and her eyes showed fear.
"As expected..."
Li Guangliang told Concubine Li that Xiao Lizi was hiding in the Queen's Palace.
This shows that Xiao Lizi belongs to the queen and everything is a trick of the queen.
The queen has incriminating evidence of Concubine Li's scandal. The queen may report it at any time, and Concubine Li may be executed at any time.
Concubine Li shuddered and said to Hong'er: "Bring me a pen and ink!"
Hong'er brought pen and ink, and the imperial concubine stood up, sat down at the table, and immediately wrote a reply to Li Guangliang.
After sealing it, Concubine Li handed the letter to the messenger: "Give it to your brother with your own hands."
The messenger bowed and immediately left the chamber.
Concubine Li was so frightened that she lost all sleep and stared blankly at the candlelight.
"Mother, it's getting late, let's have a rest."
Hong'er advised Concubine Li to go to bed early, but Concubine Li couldn't sleep at all.
"Leave me alone, go out."
Concubine Li was in a bad mood, Hong'er didn't dare to say anything more and left the dormitory, leaving Concubine Li stunned.
...
When Long Chen returned to Liu Mansion from the palace, the sky was slightly bright.
The valet closed the door and said, "I haven't slept all night. Master, please go to bed early."
Long Chen yawned and entered Shuiyun's room.
Shuiyun was sleeping deeply.
People sleep most deeply when it is almost dawn.
Long Chen slept next to Shuiyun.
Tomorrow, the melee in Xingqing City will begin.
...
royal palace.
A palace maid hurriedly entered a palace to the south. When she walked inside, she saw a dignified-looking, virtuous middle-aged woman sitting on the railing blowing the air. Next to her were two palace maids carrying incense burners to serve her.
The palace maid stepped forward and paid her respects: "Shu Fei, the queen invites you to go to the middle palace to discuss matters."
This middle-aged woman is Concubine Shu, Shi Yuncheng's biological mother.
Hearing this, Concubine Shu showed a hint of surprise on her face and asked: "The queen wants me to go to the middle palace to discuss matters?"
The palace maid bowed and said, "Yes, someone from the palace just came to deliver the letter."
A trace of suspicion flashed across Concubine Shu's eyes. She knew the current situation in the royal city very well, and she also knew very well what Shi Yuncheng was doing.
On the surface, Concubine Shu behaved herself in the palace, but in fact she was always paying attention to the situation outside.
Anyone who can get the concubine position in the harem is not a fuel-saving lamp.
"Just let me go alone?"
Concubine Shu was very vigilant. If she was allowed to go alone, Concubine Shu would never go.
The palace maid shook her head and said, "I don't know."
Concubine Shu's face was no longer as easy-going and gentle as before, but became cold and stern, and said: "If you don't know, just report it, why don't you go find out!"
The palace maid immediately went out to inquire.
Concubine Shu immediately called for a palace maid and ordered: "Go and tell the second prince!"
The palace maid immediately took the order to leave the palace and go to the Imperial Army Yamen.
Shi Yuncheng now spends most of his time in the imperial government office and rarely returns to the palace.
This was Concubine Shu's suggestion to ask Shi Yuncheng not to leave the Forbidden Army Yamen.
The Forbidden Army Yamen is guarded by the Forbidden Army, which can ensure personal safety, and at the same time, it can also firmly control the Forbidden Army to prevent the seizure of power.
Shi Yuncheng followed Concubine Shu's advice.
Soon, the palace maid came back and reported: "Your Majesty, after asking around, all the concubines in the harem have received the news and they are all going to the middle palace to discuss matters."
Hearing that everyone was going, Concubine Shu's vigilance did not lower.
Now the queen and Shi Yuncheng are at war with each other. If Concubine Shu comes to the middle palace and is controlled, Shi Yuncheng will definitely throw a trap.
"Tell the queen that I am bedridden today and cannot attend."
Concubine Shu immediately got up and went back to the bedroom to lie down.
Even though I said I was bedridden, I still wanted to make one.
In the imperial concubine's palace.
Hong'er hurried into the pavilion and also reported to the queen that the concubine should go to the middle palace to discuss matters.
Concubine Li frowned and asked, "Only let me go, or should everyone go?"
Hong'er was alert and had inquired about it early, and replied: "They are all going, but Concubine Shu said she is ill in bed and cannot go."
