A sudden heavy rain washed away the bloodstains inside and outside the palace. However, the broken palace walls and the piles of corpses being transported reminded everyone that the battle in the imperial city last night was very tragic, and the situation in Kyrgyzstan had changed.
.
"Prince Crown Prince! The female thief who pretended to be the queen has been beheaded in public..."
A chief eunuch stood bent over in the royal study. The prince, his son and the two princes were all sitting tiredly on chairs. It was already the afternoon of the second day after the war, but the prince seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight.
People who are less than ten years old have a lot of gray hair.
"Have you checked..."
The third prince hurriedly asked: "Is the Dragon Guards under the control of King Zhao? They should have opened the palace gate last night, and how did King Zhao sneak into the palace? Who was the spy for him?"
"Your Majesty! The Dragon Imperial Guard has obeyed King Zhao's orders and has not listened to the imperial edict at all..."
The old eunuch said helplessly: "Many of the Dragon Guards have gone through life and death with King Zhao. It would be easy for King Zhao to bribe them. However, the palace gate was opened by the Imperial Army last night. Two important generals were assassinated. Now all the Imperial Army has turned to Zhao."
King, even our ministers have been reorganized!"
"What?"
The third prince said in shock and anger: "Zhao Yunxuan actually reorganized even the eunuchs. He is too blatant. He wants to completely ignore us!"
"Alas~ I had expected this for a long time, and we all let him deceive us..."
The prince said in frustration: "We thought he was a bandit in the mountains. Who would have thought that he had sneaked back to Kyoto and secretly linked up with the imperial guards and the imperial army. But judging from the fact that he did not notify the Yuan family, he deliberately made our two families fight. He is so good
Take this opportunity to plot to usurp the throne!"
"Prince! King Zhao said that he noticed something was wrong with the emperor, and he did not dare to speak nonsense because there was no evidence. He was not to blame for the murder of Yuan Shichu and his son. The Yuan family was actually grateful to him for coming to the rescue..."
The old eunuch said: "In the final analysis, we are still unreasonable, but he did not do anything. Half of the Red Feather Army is still in your hands. He did not ask for the military power of the three armies. He just emptied you in the palace.
The old slave has stepped aside now!"
"Having military power but not being able to leave the palace, how is this different from house arrest..."
The fourth prince said angrily: "As long as he retrieves three copies of the poisonous powder, our whole family will be completely killed, and only the good-for-nothing third child in the Yuan family will be left, and the second child who only knows how to talk, no one will be his opponent.
In the future, this country will not all belong to him!"
"Don't be impatient! Keep the green hills here, don't worry about running out of firewood..."
The prince waved his hand and said: "Judging from the father's calculations, he can't even hope to find all three corpse poisons. The older generation of the Yuan family are not vegetarians, and they will definitely notice his evil intentions. We just need to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers. Anyway,
It was like this in the past, so let’s figure it out slowly!”
"Father! I think that thanks to King Zhao, he is the savior of our family..."
The emperor's grandson said: "The late emperor was deceived by the Onmyoji a long time ago. Oni Wangzhong said in front of the children that they could become emperor in two generations. What's more, in such a critical situation last night, King Zhao did not abandon the children.
He was forced into this position by our family, otherwise why bother to rebel?"
The prince waved his hand and said: "What do you know about your kid? He is trying to win a big game!"
"Prince!"
A dragon guard suddenly came to the door, raised his hands and said: "The Yuan Mansion has sent people. Representatives from three generations of old, middle and young people have also brought several female family members. The prince-in-law also asked several people to bring their family members with them.
Head to the main hall!"
"Guan'er! Go and call your mother and concubines, and then call the two imperial concubines..."
The prince waved his hand expressionlessly, and they all stood up and changed into their mourning clothes. The three brothers discussed in secret for a while, and then the prince, concubine and sister arrived at the same time, along with the dead emperor.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The two noble concubines walked towards the main hall wearing sackcloth and mourning.
"Coming!"
Zhao Guanren was sitting on the side of the hall drinking tea. The Yuan family sent more than twenty people, all wearing hemp and wearing mourning. However, an old man said angrily: "Humph~ You still have the nerve to come. Our ancestors' empire was almost ruined by you."
Got it!"
"It's not us who did this..."
The second prince said with a sullen face: "The blame for this is our neglect of precautions. Both the emperor and the queen were killed by Thai thieves, and Chang Diji also died tragically on the spot. Our family is also a victim, okay? Otherwise, we were killed last night
Why give up the war and negotiate?”
"Okay! Stop arguing..."
Zhao Guanren put down the tea bowl and stood up, helped an elder of the Yuan family up, then took the prince's hand, and actually pulled them both to the high platform, and suddenly pressed the elder of the Yuan family on the dragon chair.
The prince's expression suddenly changed.
"Mr. Yuan! Tell the truth, is this dragon chair comfortable to sit on..."
Zhao Guanren patted Mr. Yuan on the shoulder. The old man swallowed nervously. Looking at his eager children and grandchildren in the audience, he said bravely: "The dragon chair is naturally uncomfortable, but the mountains and rivers conquered by our ancestors will burn our butts."
We have to sit still!"
"You are wrong! The country does not belong to anyone, only the dragon chair belongs to your family..."
Zhao Guanren pointed to the outside of the palace and said: "But you can't see the world when you sit on the dragon chair. Looking out is just a palace wall. The dragon chair is nothing more than that. It won't make people become immortals, let alone keep them rich forever. Why bother?
How about a fight to the death over a broken chair?"
As he spoke, Zhao Guanren helped him up, pulled the prince to sit on the dragon chair, and said: "The emperor is just the biggest official, any emperor, the dragon son is just a gimmick. Do good things for the country, benefit the people, and let your Zhao family
Eternity is the real thing!"
"..."
Everyone looked at him with different expressions, and the prince was a little confused, but Zhao Guanren took them both down the high platform and came to the middle of the two families.
"I have discussed it with Hongluan and will tell the world after the prince ascends the throne..."
Zhao Guanren said with a smile: "Both of you will recognize your ancestors and return your surname to Zhao. From now on, the second wife will be a prince or an empress. Give me the title of general who protects the country. I will marry one of the children of each of the two wives as equal wives."
, from now on, I will supervise your two houses and prevent you from fighting!"
"Very good! Thank you for taking the trouble, Xian Sun..."
Mr. Yuan immediately held up his hands and laughed. The prince and others had nothing to say. In fact, this matter had been brought up a long time ago. It was just a formality to say it in public. The two houses would discuss the specific details slowly.
"That's right! Do you need to be buried for the Emperor..."
Zhao Guanren looked at the two imperial concubines, their expressions changed, and they hurriedly waved their hands and said: "Our dynasty has long abandoned the bad custom of burial. The concubines with children only need to observe the festival, while the concubines without children have to guard the mausoleum or become a monk, which is still a bit shameful.
Stay in the palace and serve the new emperor!"
"Okay! You two will chat slowly. If you have any questions, just come to me..."
Zhao Guanren strode out with his hands behind his back, and took Qiu Ning to a side hall. When he entered the room, he saw Yong Ning flying towards him, wrapped around him like a koala, and said with a smile: "You are so awesome.
, the rebellion is just one step away from success!”
"How can it be so easy to succeed? Their millions of troops are just decorations..."
Zhao Guanren carried her into the bedroom. Qiu Ning and Luo Tan all followed and closed the door. Zhao Guanren touched Yong Ning's flat belly and said, "Yong Ning! Since the emperor's grandson thinks the child is his, I want you to keep it."
Give birth to the child in the palace!"
"Why?"
Yongning was surprised and asked: "Do you want our son to be the emperor?"
"Of course! But you
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
She is a harem fighting bitch, I need you to cooperate and supervise the Crown Princess, and together we can control the palace..."
Zhao Guanren said frankly: "The prince has been replaced by me. Luo Tan and Datou will also stay to take charge of the Dragon Guards and the Imperial Army. From now on, you will have the final say in the palace, and Qiu Ning will be in charge of the outside of the palace. She will help me keep an eye on it."
Yuan family, I will arrange another group of people for her!"
Yongning sat in his arms and said in surprise: "What about you, do you want to return to Shunguo?"
"I have to find three copies of corpse poison powder..."
Zhao Guanren frowned and said: "Based on my understanding of Emperor Jiwu, there must be a poisonous fan in Shunguo. Besides, the power of the Yuan family is too huge. After the wedding, I have to hunt for poison while weakening the power of the Yuan family and deal with it."
Those bastards from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom have a lot of things to do!"
"Brother! You are going to completely rebel..."
Yong Ning stuck out his tongue in fear, Luo Tan and Qiu Ning also covered their mouths in surprise, but Zhao Guanren said with a smile: "I am not interested in the throne, but in addition to destroying poison, I also have a mission to subvert
Ji Guo, so are you willing to help me?"
"I can help you. I can even make our son the emperor, but I have two conditions..."
Yongning said seriously: "You have to marry me first. Just have a few witnesses. I also promise not to let the emperor's grandson touch me. And you have to swear that if the rebellion succeeds, you must marry me again."
Go back and don't leave me!"
"I don't want myself, and I won't want you..."
Zhao Guanren smiled and kissed her, and Yongning smiled sweetly: "I didn't expect that I, a princess of the Shun Kingdom, would one day become the Crown Princess of the Ji Kingdom, and I was so excited when I thought of treason, but you have to tell the truth when you go back.
Tell my dad that Yongwei must stay with me!"
"Okay! It's all up to you. I'll stay in the palace with you tonight..."
Zhao Guanren scratched her little nose, explained a few things, and then walked out. Not long after, he came to an independent small courtyard. Unexpectedly, Lu Datou ran out thiefly and pulled him in.
In an alley not far away.
"You don't have to go, I've already taken care of Mrs. Yuan..."
Lu Datou whispered: "The military power of the Yuan family is also divided into three parts. The eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother all have military power. However, Yuan Shichu's eldest brother accounts for more than half. Now that he is dead, his two sons are young, and the other two brothers have military power.
Come to fight for power, Mrs. Yuan is very anxious!"
"How did you negotiate? Is it reliable..."
Zhao Guanren took out his cigarettes and lit them. Lu Datou said with a proud smile: "How can I be unreliable? She wants to keep General Hulie most now. After I promised to help her keep him, the little girl just pretended to be half-hearted and half-hearted.
Let me get fucked!"
"Cough cough cough..."
Zhao Guanren threw away the cigarette and coughed violently, and asked in disbelief: "Are you talking about Yuan Shichu's wife? She must be fifty years old. If you make someone's belly bigger, aren't you afraid that their son will fight you?
"
"Not that old! Just forty-five years old..."
Lu Datou blew the smoke and said with a smile: "Don't think that you are the only one who can date business, I can also sacrifice my appearance for my career, and Mrs. Yuan, after a long drought, volunteered to treat her as a posthumous child if she is pregnant. I am going to take care of her in a few days."
Her eldest daughter-in-law also won it!"
"Nah! Just walk around among the widows, and you can eat the food from the old gang..."
Zhao Guanren said angrily: "Since you are sure, I won't waste any more words. I have to talk to the widows in the harem. This time I not only have to discuss business with them, but I also have to look for clues in them. Let's see.
Do they know where the poison powder is?"
(After a heavy downpour, the roof of my balcony leaked again. I had to find someone to repair the mess. Chapter 2 will be updated in the afternoon!)
