As he spoke, Muzhaigong put down the tea cup in his hand and said calmly: "Since the Queen Mother wants to hide it, I have to force the Queen Mother!"
Xu Tong asked curiously: "How can the teacher force the Queen Mother?"
Duke Mu Zhai stroked his beard, waved to Xu Tong and said, "Go and find Jingzhi and ask him to contact dozens of ministers to go and see the emperor."
Xu Tong couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard this. He had to say that Mu Zhaigong's move was indeed very simple, but it was the most direct method.
The Queen Mother tried hard to conceal the news of the Emperor's disappearance. If officials went to see the Emperor, then the Queen Mother would definitely feel great pressure.
The Queen Mother did not have an emperor in her hands at all, so naturally she could not explain it to the officials. When the time came, she would not be able to withstand the pressure of the officials, and even the Queen Mother would have to announce the news of the emperor's death to the public.
Xu Tong nodded with excitement and said, "Disciple, go ahead now!"
In front of the palace gate, Jiang Mian, who received the news, hesitated for a while, but still contacted a group of officials to go and see the emperor.
The chamberlain guarding the palace gate couldn't help but panic when he saw dozens of ministers, and quickly sent someone to report to the Queen Mother.
At this time, the Queen Mother had just received the news that the emperor had been found, and was heading to Kunning Palace with Gu Dayong and Hu Yi.
According to what Hu Yi said, the emperor found it in a remote room in the cold palace. When he found it, the emperor was unconscious and has now been sent to the Queen of Kunning Palace.
Although the emperor was said to be unconscious, at least the emperor was not burned to death, which gave the Queen Mother some comfort. As long as there was no danger to her life, she was not afraid of being in a coma for a while. In the palace, there was no belief that the imperial doctor was incapable of awakening the emperor.
The Queen Mother, Luan Jia, was rushing towards Kunning Palace. Suddenly, two chamberlains came in a hurry, bowed down before Luan Jia, and blocked the Queen Mother's way.
The Queen Mother, who was in a hurry to visit the Emperor, was suddenly blocked. Her expression changed and a look of anger appeared on her face, but she still suppressed the anger in her heart. Gu Dayong stared at the two chamberlains and scolded sharply:
"You are so blind that you haven't seen the Queen Mother Luan Jia. What on earth is going on that makes you so flustered?"
One of the chamberlains said in a trembling voice: "Return to the General Manager of the Valley. Outside the palace gate, Mr. Jiang Ge and dozens of ministers are asking to see the emperor. The slaves and maids don't know what to do, so they came here to report to the Empress Dowager Ming."
The Queen Mother couldn't help frowning when she heard this, and was slightly angry in her heart. What on earth did Jiang Mian and other officials want to do? He had already sent an edict, saying that the emperor was frightened by the fire in the palace and was recuperating in the palace.
Normally, Jiang Mian and other officials should not have come to see the Emperor at this time, but these officials just came and gathered outside the palace gate.
Even the Queen Mother, no matter how slow her reaction was, realized that it was not that simple for Jiang Mian and others to ask for an audience with the Emperor outside the palace gate.
Taking a deep breath, she heard the Queen Mother say: "The Ai family should go and see what they want to do."
Although he was anxious to see the emperor, since the emperor had been found and sent to the queen, there was no rush for this moment.
The Queen Mother's Luanjia arrived at the palace gate not long after.
The servants guarding the door couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the Queen Mother Luan Jia. The pressure brought by dozens of ministers was really too much for them.
I heard the Queen Mother say in a deep voice: "Open the palace door, please come in."
With a creak, the palace door opened, and Jiang Mian and dozens of other officials immediately saw the Queen Mother Zhang sitting on the throne.
The Queen Mother looked at them expressionlessly, which made Jiang Mian and other officials feel nervous. They all stepped forward and saluted the Queen Mother: "I will pay my respects to the Queen Mother, Queen Mother Jin'an!"
Her eyes swept over the officials kneeling on the ground and saw that these officials were only a small part of the court. The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, please excuse me."
After Jiang Mian and other officials stood up, the Queen Mother said calmly: "Why don't you go deal with affairs in the court, but gather people outside the palace gate?"
All the officials were silent. Jiang Mian took a deep breath and stepped forward to salute the Queen Mother: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, I heard a rumor today. I was very frightened and came here to see the Emperor."
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes and stared at Jiang Mian and said: "Oh, what kind of rumor is it that has alarmed Mr. Jiang Ge and all of you adults? You might as well tell the Ai family to hear it."
Jiang Mian looked at the Queen Mother and said slowly: "There are rumors that your Majesty... Your Majesty, he has died in the fire of Qianqing Palace..."
With a pop, Jiang Mian knelt down on the ground, with tears streaming down his face, and said with a look of grief: "When I heard this rumor, I felt like my whole body was burning. I was heartbroken with grief and fear. I came here to see your Majesty..."
"I am so distraught and frightened that I have come here to see Your Majesty. I wish Your Majesty all the best and good health!"
Dozens of officials prostrated themselves on the ground and shouted in unison.
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes, slowly closed them, then opened them suddenly, a flash of light flashed through her eyes, and she shouted coldly: "You are so important ministers of the Ming Dynasty that you actually believe the rumors in the market. Your Majesty is just a little bit. Scared, others don’t understand, but don’t you, Mr. Jiang Ge, understand?”
While speaking, the Queen Mother's cold eyes fell on Jiang Mian.
The Empress Dowager had summoned Jiao Fang, Jiang Mian and others before. She specifically told Jiang Mian and others to appease all the officials in the court. However, only two days later, Jiang Mian came to the palace with all the officials.
Yes, from the Queen Mother's point of view, this was forced into the palace, and Jiang Mian's move was clearly to get her to make the news of the emperor's disappearance known to the public.
After all, the emperor really disappeared before. If the news was announced, it would be equivalent to admitting that the emperor died in the fire of Qianqing Palace.
Once the emperor is confirmed to have passed away, the next step is to choose a new king.
Although the Queen Mother ignores government affairs, she is not a fool either.
Jiang Mian seemed to be able to feel the Queen Mother's cold gaze on him, and couldn't help but feel nervous, but now that he was here, he was ready.
Now he can only follow his teacher's path to the dark side, either assisting the new king to ascend the throne and leave his name in history, or be beaten as a traitor and a traitor, and will be infamy for thousands of years.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Mian said with great respect: "Your Majesty, I don't understand. I only wish to meet the Emperor. I ask the Queen Mother for permission to reassure all my ministers."
The Queen Mother did not expect Jiang Mian to be so bold, but she was not too angry. She just glanced at everyone coldly, waved her sleeves and said in a scolding voice: "Don't you want to see the Emperor? Then give it to the Ai family." Kneel here and wait until the Ai family goes to see the emperor and then I will reply to you!"
Jiang Mian said loudly to the Queen Mother's back: "Queen Mother, I am waiting here. I will not give up until I see the Emperor!"
"I will never give up until I see the Emperor!"
"I will never give up until I see the Emperor!"
On top of the carriage, the Queen Mother turned pale with anger when she heard the shouts coming from behind her. Under the palace clothes, the green and white jade hands clenched tightly and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"
Standing on a palace in the distance, with his hands behind his back, Chu Yi looked at the scene happening in the direction of the palace gate from a distance, the corners of Chu Yi's mouth slightly raised, and a faint chill flashed through his eyes.
Cao Shaoqin stood next to Chu Yi, looking away from the officials who were kneeling at the palace gate and said: "Master Governor, they are so brave, they are trying to force the palace!"
Chu Yi chuckled lightly and said with a bit of disdain: "It's just forcing the palace. This is probably what they are best at. Besides, they have done this kind of thing once or twice. As the saying goes, the law does not punish the public!"
"
Cao Shaoqin said: "If Your Majesty does not return to the palace, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will really be roasted on the fire by them!"
Chu Yi said with a half-smile: "No rush, no rush, I just want to see what other tricks they have up their sleeves!"
The Queen Mother rushed straight to the Kunning Palace. In the Kunning Palace, the Queen couldn't bear the news of the emperor's disappearance. She fainted at that time, and later woke up. Fortunately, the imperial doctor took care of her body, but even so, she was still
It’s hard to eat and drink, and it’s hard to sleep day and night.
When Zhu Houzhao was sent to Kunning Palace, the queen was so excited that she almost fainted.
At this moment, the queen was watching nervously as two imperial doctors helped diagnose the unconscious emperor.
Two imperial doctors examined Zhu Houzhao. Except for the injury on his leg, Zhu Houzhao had no other injuries at all. Ordinarily, he should not be unconscious.
But seeing the emperor lying there motionless made the two imperial doctors deeply puzzled.
At this moment, the queen said: "Two imperial doctors, how is your majesty?"
The two looked at each other, only to hear one of them stroking his beard and saying with a bitter smile: "In response to the Queen's words, I am not very good at studying. Apart from finding an injury on Your Majesty's leg, I found nothing else. Based on our medical judgment,
Your Majesty is not in good health at all and should not be in a coma..."
The queen couldn't help being stunned, looking at the two imperial doctors in astonishment, at Zhu Houzhao who seemed to be asleep, and then at the two imperial doctors.
Taking a deep breath, the queen said solemnly: "Two imperial doctors, your majesty's safety is related to the prosperity and decline of a country. Please give your majesty a detailed diagnosis."
The two looked at each other and carefully diagnosed Zhu Houzhao again, then slowly shook his head towards the queen and said: "Please forgive me, I really can't see why your majesty is unconscious."
At this moment, a voice came from outside the palace: "The Queen Mother has arrived!"
Immediately afterwards, he saw the Queen Mother walking quickly. When she saw Zhu Houzhao lying on the bed from a distance, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Your Majesty, my Majesty!"
Seeing Zhu Houzhao, the Queen Mother was really filled with joy and sorrow.
Everyone hurriedly saluted to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother waved her hand, stepped forward, looked at Zhu Houzhao, and breathed out: "It's Zhao'er from the Ai family, it's Zhao'er!"
As she spoke, the Queen Mother turned around and looked at the two imperial doctors and said: "Two imperial doctors, what's wrong with your majesty? Why are you unconscious?"
[Oh, guys, you are so dirty. What you said in this chapter is like blinding the fleas with gold eyes. Well, Chu Dudu and Zhaozhao are buddies, buddies, buddies... For the sake of buddies, just give me a monthly pass! 】
