After a house full of cannon fodder read my voice, the whole family went crazy.
Chapter 142 Trouble comes from the mouth
It's quiet at night.
In the imperial city, on the criss-crossing palace roads, patrolling Yulin guards walked by from time to time.
On the dragon bed wrapped in bright yellow window curtains, the emperor's eyes were closed, his brows were furrowed, and he was tossing and turning, as if he was deep in a nightmare.
"No! Stop it!"
The emperor suddenly exclaimed, then turned over and sat up.
He was breathing rapidly, and the bright yellow nightgown on his body was soaked with cold sweat.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you okay?"
There was a call from the steward of the chamberlain outside the door.
"I'm fine, I just...had a dream."
The emperor stepped off the dragon bed, and the steward of the chamberlain outside the door also opened the door, walked over quickly, and poured him a cup of tea diligently.
"Your Majesty, would you like to pass some hot water to clean you?"
The chief chamberlain looked at the emperor's embarrassed look. Although he was surprised, he did not dare to show it.
"Well, what time is it outside now?"
The emperor suddenly asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, the second update has just been called."
The head chamberlain replied while arranging for people to prepare hot water and clean up the mess on the dragon bed.
"Second watch? Let someone help me change my clothes. It will be time to go to court in a while."
The emperor suddenly felt deeply tired.
He was clearly in his prime, but he suddenly felt like he was already in his twilight years.
Although he was not as doting on the prince as he was on the ninth prince.
But he is still his son after all, and even if it is just as a transitional tool, he can still play some role.
Originally, he wanted to use the prince as a shield to stand in front of the Ninth Prince.
Before the Ninth Prince can take charge of his own affairs, block all the conspiracies and dirty tricks for him.
But now, the Ninth Prince passed away early when he was still young, completely disrupting his plans.
"Although I personally arranged for the criminal to bear the charge of assassinating the prince, the Ninth Emperor's son is still the most suspected. Although I want the Qiao family to be the support of the Ninth Emperor's family, I don't want them to become powerful, which would be bad. control."
The emperor pondered in his heart.
A young chamberlain stood outside the door and looked around. The steward walked over and heard him whisper a few words. Then he walked back to the emperor and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is news from the people in the prison. Uncle Guo wants to Asking to see you."
"He wants to see me, should I go to see him?"
The emperor sneered.
But soon, a heavily covered carriage left the palace and headed straight for Dali Temple.
In the innermost cell of the sky prison.
Uncle Guo, with disheveled hair, was facing the cold wall, rocking back and forth, banging his head against the wall.
"Why haven't you come yet? He can't be indifferent to the news I sent him. He will come, he will definitely come!"
In the midst of his nervous murmur, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the cell.
"You want to see me?"
In the cold corridor, a figure suddenly walked out gradually.
The bright yellow dragon robe was covered by a large black cloak, with only a corner of the hem exposed when walking around.
"Your Majesty, you are finally here."
Uncle Guo was still shaking his body, but he tilted his head, stared at the emperor and said sadly.
"I knew that as long as I said that, you would definitely come!"
"Me? You don't even claim to be a subject in front of me now?"
The emperor's face was gloomy, and his voice was as cold as ice.
"Official? Haha, hahahaha!"
Uncle Guo sneered twice, his voice gradually getting louder, and finally he became very crazy.
"Your Majesty, do you still remember that I am your subject? Then you still remember how my eldest sister and my family accompanied you in the war, fighting in blood and fire.
The eldest sister was very pregnant at that time and helped you manage all the affairs of the house. She even personally took care of the military food, military pay, and other trivial matters. She took care of everything in an orderly manner. After almost six months, she lost her health.
She is exhausted! Your Majesty, have you forgotten that the deceased prince was not your first child, but your second? Have you also forgotten that our family helped you conquer your world?
You clearly know that the Ninth Prince is the real murderer of the Crown Prince, but you still find someone to take the blame for him, and you even want to pass the throne to him in the future! Are you worthy of the prince who died unjustly?
As long as you still have some conscience, you should treat my eldest sister kindly instead of imprisoning her in the palace and torture and humiliate her in every possible way! "
The emperor listened quietly.
If the muscles on his face hadn't twitched from time to time, he would have looked like an expressionless clay and wood sculpture.
Uncle Guo's emotions were so intense that once he vented them out, he felt short of breath, chest tight, and his eyesight turned black.
He had to pause and take a breather.
"Are you done?"
The emperor sneered and said: "The queen has already died, but it's too late to mourn her. It's a pity that you can't send her off."
The uncle was stunned for a moment and looked at the emperor in disbelief. He suddenly rushed over to the railing and stretched out his hands to scratch. He screamed: "It's you! It's you who did the murder, isn't it? You have to take my place for me." The Ninth Prince eliminates potential dangers. Right!
Ha ha! What an ungrateful white-eyed wolf who repays kindness with hatred! But you won't be better for long. The Qiao family now is the same as you who had a lot of troops back then!
Your today is their tomorrow, just wait for the reincarnation of God! "
The emperor's face turned completely cold. He looked at the already crazy Uncle Guo and said to the steward who was following behind him: "Preach my decree. The Emperor intends to kidnap and murder the Ninth Prince, and he has a disobedient heart.
Immediately launch the Meridian Gate and behead him in public! The queen family harbors evil intentions and has repeatedly provoked my divine power. They have deceived the emperor and ignored them. Their crime will not be forgiven! The nine tribes were executed and all their property was transferred to the national treasury.
Anyone who dares to plead for mercy will share the same guilt! Liu Zhan, the young minister of Dali Temple, is the supervisor and beheading officer, so there must be no omissions! "
The chief chamberlain came over and whispered: "Your Majesty, Liu Shaoqing's wife... is a distant relative of the Queen..."
The emperor paused slightly.
He planned to reuse Liu Zhan to fill the vacancy in the court and contain the Qiao family after the queen's family was executed.
Therefore, the main wife cannot be punished with the same crime, otherwise Liu Zhan will not be able to stand firmly in the court.
After a long while, he slowly said: "Mrs. Liu Shaoqing is kind-hearted and virtuous, and she is deeply loved by the Queen Mother. Her parents died early and she was living in the care of others. She has long been adopted as a daughter in the name of a widowed woman in the Queen Mother's family, and has no relationship with the Queen Mother's family. "
This sentence not only picked Fang Yan'er out, but even raised Liu Zhan's status.
That night, somewhere in the imperial city suddenly burst into flames, and the sound of crying continued throughout the night.
The uninformed common people huddled in their homes and shivered, and the civil and military officials who received the news were even more in danger.
No one could have imagined how things suddenly changed overnight.
The clan of empresses with the power of dragons were uprooted. Before dawn, they had already knelt down in dense numbers outside the Meridian Gate.
