Domineering Daming

The two Cao just found the right opportunity to persuade, suddenly Yao Qingqing shouted eagerly outside the door: "Your Highness, Your Majesty is calling."

When Empress Zhang approached Zhu Xu, she always called people directly, and never used the word "summoned".

Zhu Xu frowned, and said to the two, "I'll go see the emperor's wife first."

Cao Wenzhao and Cao Huachun looked at each other, and after Zhu Xu had left, Cao Huachun said, "Commander Cao, I think we should persuade Your Highness again."

Cao Wenzhao took a deep breath and said, "Well, when His Highness comes back, I will go to persuade His Highness again."

Zhu Xu came to Kunning Palace in a hurry, and felt a "killing" aura before entering the door.It can be said that there is one post in three steps and one post in five steps.The court ladies and eunuchs stood bowed one by one, not daring to show their breath, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Zhu Xu's eyes changed, and he walked quickly inside.

As soon as he walked in, Wu Qing ran down quickly, and said nervously: "Your Highness, Your Majesty is waiting for you inside."

Zhu Xu glanced at Wu Qing, walked in without asking, and as soon as he crossed the threshold, he saw Empress Zhang walking back and forth with a serious expression and frowning.

Seeing Zhu Xu coming in, he said, "Quick, come with me."

Zhu Xu's heart skipped a beat, and he followed Queen Zhang into her room.

In the room, Huan'er watched the two come in nervously. In front of the phoenix bed, an imperial doctor was kneeling there, and there was obviously another person lying on the bed.

There is only one man who can lie on Queen Zhang's bed, the emperor Zhu Youxiao!

Zhu Xu's expression sank completely, his heart was pounding, and he followed Queen Zhang to the bedside without saying anything.

The imperial doctor saw Queen Zhang approaching, got up quickly, clasped his hands and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there is no sign of waking up yet."

Empress Zhang nodded lightly, and said: "You go, don't go back to Tai Hospital, wait in the side room."

The imperial physician also knew that the matter was of great importance, so he quickly backed out with a promise.

Empress Zhang looked at Huan'er again and said, "You go too, no matter who comes, I will block the door for you."

Huan'er responded lightly, glanced at Zhu Xu, then turned and walked out.

Zhu Xu looked at the unprecedented seriousness on Empress Zhang's face, and then turned to look at Zhu Youxiao who was lying on the bed, pale and sweating profusely.

Empress Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that everyone had left, walked to the bed and sat down, said with a tired face, "You've seen it all."

Zhu Xu looked at Zhu Youxiao on the bed, suppressed the panic in his heart, and said, "Is it still the snake venom?"

Annoyed look appeared on Empress Zhang's face, and she said, "It's not snake venom, but it's just the root cause of the disease caused by long-term exposure to the cold. The imperial doctor said that it will be a few days in a coma at most, and it will be fine when you wake up..."

Zhu Xu's heart was heavy, and he frowned tightly and didn't answer.

Historically, Zhu Youxiao died of illness in the seventh year of Tianqi. He had always hoped in his heart that Zhu Youxiao could make it through, so that he would have more time to plan, but he did not expect that the wheels of history were still rolling.

Chapter 163 The plan is advanced

Thinking that it was the seventh year of the apocalypse, Zhu Xu comforted Empress Zhang and said, "Sister-in-law Huang, don't worry, Brother Huang will definitely be lucky."

Empress Zhang frowned, wiped Zhu Youxiao's sweat with a handkerchief, and said softly: "I have already grounded Zhang Yanyao, and I have also sealed off Xian'an Palace. Now besides Liu Shimin, Kunning Palace and you, everyone else I don't even know."

Zhu Xu nodded, Zhu Youxiao had no heirs, if he was unconscious and his life was in danger, the capital would definitely be in chaos, not to mention the chaos in the world.

Empress Zhang glanced at Zhu Xu, frowned, and said: "Tomorrow, you go to the cabinet to pass the decree, and say that the emperor feels cold occasionally and will stop court for three days."

Zhu Xu was stunned, and said: "Sister-in-law, why do you want me to deliver the decree?"

Empress Zhang's tone was somewhat helpless, she waved her hands and said, "Go if you are told."

Zhu Xu agreed without knowing why, and then carefully pondered what Empress Zhang said, but it was still plausible and couldn't find the exact point.

Zhu Xu talked with Queen Zhang for a while, and he didn't come out until Huan'er came to deliver the medicine.

Standing at the gate of the palace, the psychological pressure increased greatly. He thought for a while, then turned and walked to the wing, with his hands behind his back, looked at the imperial doctor and said indifferently: "Tell me the truth about the condition of the emperor."

The imperial physician had a part of his beard that was white. He looked at Zhu Xu and hesitated for a moment, then said cautiously, "Return to Your Highness, the emperor's qi and blood are deficient, kidney qi is deficient, and he has poisonous gangrene on his leg. There is no serious problem for the time being."

Zhu Xu's face changed suddenly, and he lost his voice: "Poisonous gangrene?"

As a student majoring in archaeology, he had encountered many suspected tombs of Nurhachi, and made a lot of preparations. Naturally, he knew that Nurhachi died of this poisonous gangrene!

Upon seeing it, the imperial physician hurriedly said: "Your Highness, don't worry, it's not serious. The emperor's coma this time is just, just, frequent intercourse."

But Zhu Xu frowned, staring at the imperial doctor with piercing eyes, and said, "I ask you, is the emperor's gangrene serious? Why hasn't it been cured for so long?"

The imperial doctor's expression became more and more struggling, and he hesitated for a while before saying: "Go back to Your Highness, the most important thing is that it's the emperor, who didn't take good care of himself."

Zhu Xu frowned so painfully that he heard the words of the imperial physician, he pondered for a while, then turned around and walked back to Queen Zhang's bedroom.

Seeing Zhu Xu barging in, Empress Zhang frowned slightly, and just about to speak, Zhu Xu said directly: "Sister-in-law, Zhang Yanyao can't stay any longer."

Empress Zhang also had anger on her face, but she suppressed it and said lightly: "You know?"

Zhu Xu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he said in a deep voice, "Well, Brother Huang will definitely be killed if he continues like this!"

Empress Zhang looked at Zhu Xu's face, took a deep breath, and said indifferently: "It's not difficult to deal with her, but you need to find the right time."

Zhu Xu knew from Empress Zhang's tone that she might have wanted to kill her long ago, it was just because Zhu Youxiao had been holding back.He pursed his lips, his chest heaving.This Zhang Yanyao is no better than the Ke family, and the Ke family knows how to take care of Zhu Youxiao's body, but Zhang Yanyao actually tortured Zhu Youxiao to death.

Zhu Xu looked at Empress Zhang with a firm expression and said: "Okay, I'll go get ready, and my sister-in-law will be patient for a few days!" After speaking, he turned around and left.

After leaving Kunning Palace, Zhu Xu forced himself to calm down as he walked.

Back at Jinghuan Palace, Zhu Xu was sitting in the study, tapping his fingers on the table, thinking deeply.

Empress Zhang is now the real lord of the harem in the harem. Zhang Yanyao has been hiding in Xian'an Palace. Although she is the most favored, she has no influence.What Queen Zhang wants to do to her, she has no ability to resist.

Although Wei Zhongxian controls the Supervisor of Rituals, he lives outside the palace, and Liu Shimin is the real steward of the palace.And this Liu Shimin is loyal to the emperor and the queen.

Therefore, as long as you deal with Zhang Yanyao quickly and ruthlessly, plus the excuse of almost killing Zhu Youxiao, there is actually no resistance.The most important thing now is how to maximize the effect of this matter.

Both Cao Wenzhao and Cao Huachun were shocked, not knowing what happened, they looked at Zhu Xu nervously.

After a while, Zhu Xu stood up abruptly and said, "Go, come out of the palace with me."

Zhu Xu felt that he couldn't wait any longer, the plan had to be advanced!

Soon, the three of them disguised themselves to avoid all kinds of eyes and ears, and appeared in Cuifang Building.

In the secret room, holding a teacup, Zhu Xu listened to the wind and dust being washed away from the opposite side, which was quite a return of the delicate love.

There was something like an account book in front of Ai'er, and there were many circles around it. She looked at it and said softly: "Your Highness, the slaves and maids have followed what you said, giving concubines, maids, maids and other means, you want Wherever it was arranged, manpower was put in."

Zhu Xu nodded and said: "I want you to check, have you checked everything?"
