Chen Yu stopped Taizhu Dou and said: "Mother, it's not easy to enter the palace now. It's already dark, let alone the gate of the palace is closed. Even if Mother goes in now, she won't be able to see the emperor. This matter is very important and cannot be handed over to you." If anyone can't see the emperor, the queen mother will hear about it, and it will be difficult to handle."

Mrs. Dou thought about it carefully, and it seems to be the case. How many people in the imperial palace now belong to the Queen Mother. Oh no.

Chen Yu said: "Let's wait for one night, and it will be early tomorrow morning, and mother will go into the palace again."

Dou Taizhu nodded and said: "Ku'er is right, let's wait for one night, and enter the palace as soon as the palace gate opens tomorrow, so as to ensure that Dou Ying can be rescued."

Taizhu Dou comforted Dou Ying's wife for a while. That night, the other party was worried and couldn't fall asleep, while Taizhu Dou and Chen Yu were so excited that they couldn't fall asleep.

Dou Taizhu was afraid that the edict might fail, so he held it in his hand even when he was sleeping, and everyone got up at dawn the next day.

Taizhu Dou carefully wrapped the edict and put it in his arms, then asked Chen Yu to find someone to prepare a car, left Dou Ying's wife in the mansion, and took Chen Yu to the palace by himself.

Today is the fifth day and needs to go to court. Although Liu Che has just recovered from a serious illness, the court has completely taken over. Yingzheng is no longer here, but the Queen Mother still continues to visit the court. If it's too bad, the queen mother will want her family to go out.

Liu Che didn't care about some petty gains, and he could bear it as much as he could.

Yingzheng still didn't know that Taizhu Dou had an edict in his hands. Taizhu Dou and Chen Yu entered the palace just in time for the emperor to go to the morning court. There was more than an hour to spare. Taizhu Dou said that he would go to Jiaofang Palace to have a look. Ying Zheng, Chen Yu was afraid that Ying Zheng would take the credit for discovering the will.

So he said to Mrs. Dou: "Mother, don't go and talk to my sister, there are so many people talking, although my sister will definitely not reveal it, but if someone from the Jiaofang Palace tells it, wouldn't it be a big deal?"

Taizhu Dou felt that what Chen Yu said made sense, so he didn't go to Jiaofangdian.

Ying Zheng didn't even know that the two of them had entered the palace.

If Yingzheng knew that Dou Taizhu had a will, he would never let her enter the palace in such a reckless manner.

You know, the edict is a sharp weapon that can bring down the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother has been in the palace for so many years, how can she be so stupid that others want to bring her down, and still be indifferent.

The most powerful moment of this edict is when it is not taken out. Once it is taken out, there is no room for refund. It has torn the face with the Queen Mother, so we must pay attention to the timing.

When Liu Che left the court, a servant came to find Tian Fu. Tian Fu listened a few times, and his heart sank. What the servant said was nothing but Taizhu Dou who seemed to have brought something to the palace to meet the emperor. .

Tian Fu vaguely knew that there was such a thing as a will, but he didn't know the details, and he didn't know what was written in the will, but it was taken out at this time, presumably for the sake of Dou Ying. Queen Mother.

Tian Fu walked out of the Chengming Hall, just in time to see Liu Che was about to get into the car, and someone came to report to him, Tian Fu knew in his heart that someone must have come to report that Mrs. Dou asked to see him.

Tian Fu was a little panicked at the moment, and then quickly walked out of the Chengming Palace. The Queen Mother went down to the court, but before she could leave, she was stopped by Tian Fu.

Tian Fu was in a hurry, lowered his voice, and leaned over and said: "The big thing is bad, sister!"

The Queen Mother saw his buttocks burned, and said with a smile, "What can be wrong?"

Tian Fu looked left and right, and the Queen Mother told the servants and maids to step aside, Tian Fu then said: "Sister, when the first emperor died, he left a will for Dou Ying, someone told me just now , Taizhu Dou has come into the palace, and wants to meet the emperor!"

"Widow?"

The queen mother was surprised and said: "Why don't I know what the edict is? Why should I give it to Dou Ying if there is a edict? There is also a secret edict, which is mysterious."

Tian Fu said: "Of course I can't let my sister know, brother, I deduce that this edict probably refers to you, the queen mother!"

The Queen Mother was even more surprised, and said: "About me? What are you talking about?"

Tian Fu didn't bother to explain in detail, and pushed the Queen Mother into the car, then got into the car himself, and let the slaves drive with his head, saying: "Shang Shu Da Xing."

Seeing that he was in such a hurry, the Queen Mother said, "There are only two of us in the car right now, why don't you tell me?"

Tian Fu said: "Good sister, don't you know that there are only two things that the former emperor feared most, one is the princes, the other is the East Palace, the lesson of the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion is very great, the former emperor was the emperor before his death The road is paved, but the East Palace is different. How can the first emperor pave the way? The East Palace represents the relatives. The power of the East Palace must make the emperor suspicious. The first emperor saved a hand! I heard people tell me before, Guan Fu likes to drink, and when he was drunk, he once said that Dou Ying held the Queen Mother's pulse door in his hand, and this pulse door is a will!"

The queen mother was stunned when she heard this, and said: "What's wrong with me? I have done my best for the Liu family for so many years, and he still wants to guard against me after he dies? Will he still harm me? Let my son harm me!"

Seeing the Queen Mother's expression, Tian Fu quickly lowered his voice and said, "Hush your voice! Keep your voice low...it is a crime of disrespect for others to hear you."

After Tian Fu finished speaking, he said again: "Let's go to Shangshu Daxing now, no matter what is in his Dou Ying's hand, burn it first!"

"Yes... yes, burn it... how much I have suffered in Liu's house, Shi'er is my son, and he still wants my own son to punish me?"

Tian Fu said: "Sister, don't think too much, what if the will does not say so."

The Empress Dowager was so angry that she was speechless. She just felt that she was very wronged. She thought that if the Empress Dowager died, she would be able to secure her seat in the East Palace. She never expected that Emperor Jing would leave a trick behind.

When the two arrived at the archives where the imperial edict was stored, no one dared to stop the Queen Mother. Besides, the prime minister followed. Fu also withdrew.

Everyone sent off the queen mother respectfully, and there was nothing else.

But no one expected that in such a short period of time, the Queen Mother would actually take away the will from Shang Shu Da Xing.

There are two copies of the edict. In order to be able to see the authenticity of the edict, one copy will be archived in the Shangshu Daxing, and the other copy will be in the hands of Dou Ying. This copy has been brought into the palace by Dou Taizhu.

And it was this archive that the Queen Mother took away.

As soon as the will is brought out, Liu Che will definitely ask someone to read the Great Bank of Shangshu. If there is an archive, then the will is true, and all officials must act according to the will. Forgery, forgery of will is a felony of decapitation.

After the Queen Mother and Tian Fu got the will, they couldn't help opening it in the car to have a look.

The Queen Mother's hands trembled, and when she unfolded them, she saw that there were not many words on it, but the meaning was already clear. It said that the Emperor was still young, and the Empress Dowager would oversee the country. When the time is right, do the right thing, and if necessary, you can also deal with the East Palace.

In the end, it was particularly emphasized that this will can protect Dou Ying's family.

The Queen Mother shook her hands angrily, Tian Fu's face turned pale, and said, "Fortunately, fortunately! Fortunately, we got it."

The Queen Mother didn't speak, but her chest was heaving up and down, and she slammed her hands to tear it up. The imperial edict was made of brocade silk, so it won't be broken naturally.

Tian Fu stopped her and said: "Sister, when you go back to the East Palace, don't let anyone see it, burn it! If Grand Master Dou didn't come up with the will, then they are considered acquainted. If Grand Master Dou really dedicates the will to If you are the emperor, then don't blame us for being cruel, we are not responsible for the lives of Dou Ying's family."

The Queen Mother took a look at Tian Fu and said, "You go first, don't tell others where we have been."

"Yes." Tian Fu asked people to stop the car, got out of the car, and said, "The Empress Dowager must take care of her body."

The Queen Mother didn't say a word, and asked people to put down the curtain of the car, and drove away on a slave.

Liu Che got off and wanted to go to Jiaofangdian, firstly to see Yingzheng, and secondly to see his son.

As a result, before getting into the car, there was a message from the servant, saying that Taizhu Dou had entered the palace and wanted to see His Majesty in the Xuanshi Pavilion.

Ever since the Empress Dowager passed away, Taizhu Dou has not been to the palace. After all, there is no one in the palace whom Madam Dou wants to see. The Empress Dowager crossed the river and demolished bridges, so there is no need for Taizhu Dou to enter the palace.

Now that she came into the palace suddenly, Liu Che knew that she must have something to do, so he sent Che Zhan to Xuanshi Pavilion.

Dou Taizhu was naturally accompanied by Chen Yu, Liu Che walked into the Xuanshi Pavilion, the two knelt down to pay respects, Liu Che asked them to get up, but the two did not get up.

Dou Taizhu said: "I came here this time because I wanted to show my face to the emperor. I can only get up after the emperor reads it."

Liu Che saw that what she said was so serious, so he asked Li Yannian to present the things.

Li Yannian put the cloth bag on the table and untied the knot, and there was a piece of brocade inside.

Liu Che is a person who is used to imperial edicts, so he could tell what it was at a glance. He picked it up and unfolded it, and he was stunned when he saw it.

Liu Che just looked at it, folded up the edict and put it on the table, and said to Mrs. Dou, "Who knows about this matter?"

Dou Taizhu said: "Because the matter is serious, no one knows except Quan Zi and Dou Ying's wife."

Liu Che stood up, walked quickly to Taizhu Dou, and said, "Do you know what it means when you take this out?"

Dou Taizhu felt that he had a powerful weapon in his hand, so he didn't need to be afraid of the Queen Mother, so he said: "I'm just a woman, I don't know what the stakes are, I only know that Dou Ying has been loyal to the big man all his life, and ended up in prison, besides, he has nothing. wrong."

Liu Che seemed a little unsure about paying attention, glanced at Dou Taizhu and Chen Yu, turned around and sat back on his hands, thought for a long time, and finally said: "You go back first, I will send people to read the Shangshu Daxing for this edict. Truthfully..."

When Liu Che said this, he couldn't continue, and waved his hands to let Mrs. Dou and Chen Yu go.

The two left the Xuanshi Pavilion, and Chen Yu smiled and said: "Mother, since we have handed over the will to the emperor, let's go to the Jiaofang Palace and tell my sister about this good thing."

Dou Taizhu also had a happy expression on his face, and immediately went to Jiaofang Hall with Chen Yu.

Yingzheng heard that Dou Taizhu and Chen Yu were here, and he didn't know what day it was, but these two people came to the palace to see him.

As soon as Master Dou met, he took Ying Zheng's hand and said with a smile, "Ah Jiao, this time my mother can feel proud!"

Ying Zheng didn't know what he was talking about, Chen Yu smiled and said: "My sister doesn't know yet, just now my mother and I came into the palace and handed something to the emperor. Guess what it is."

Before Ying Zheng could think about it, Chen Yu didn't want him to answer, and said, "Tell you, it turned out to be the late emperor's will!"

"Widow?"

Ying Zheng was startled, he had never heard of any will.

Chen Yu laughed and said: "It is the edict. The late emperor left a edict to Dou Ying, saying that after the death of the Empress Dowager, Dou Ying can use this edict to abolish the East Palace!"

Yingzheng suddenly felt a sudden shock in his heart, and said, "Where is the edict? Has it been handed over to the emperor?"

"Of course," Chen Yu said, "Don't worry, sister. I also know that this matter is of great importance, so I am very careful. It was my mother who handed over the will to the emperor. It is safe."

Ying Zheng's face was a little heavy at the moment, and he said, "Is it safe? What about the Shangshu Daxing, have you gone to see it? If the Shangshu Daxing doesn't have this edict at all, what should we do?"

Dou Taizhu and Chen Yu were taken aback. Dou Taizhu understood: "Ah Jiao, it's impossible? Dou Ying hid this edict very deeply. If it wasn't for selling the property and preparing to pay the ransom, would you still find it?" Not this thing."

Chen Yu nodded quickly and said, "It's true."

Ying Zheng said: "What's the use of the edict really? As long as you hear a little noise from the Queen Mother's side, if you go to the Shangshu Daxing and transfer the edict away, you will not only harm Dou Ying's family, but you will also be unable to get rid of it." related."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu's face turned pale immediately, and he said, "No...impossible, how could the Queen Mother hear about it."

Ying Zheng said: "There is nothing impossible. All the people in this palace are the eyes and ears of the East Palace. Now the surnames of the relatives are Wang and Tian, ​​but not Dou! Hurry up and ask the emperor to read the book."

Chen Yu's legs were a little weak, but he still staggered and ran out.

After Liu Che received the edict, he felt a little hesitant. After all, the edict involved too much, and Liu Che was no longer in the mood to go to Jiaofang Hall, so he called Wei Qing to discuss the matter of fighting against the Xiongnu.

Wei Qing had found a man in the army who had surrendered from the Huns and was very good at training the Huns cavalry. Wei Qing asked Liu Che for instructions, and Liu Che asked this man to train the cavalry of the Han army.

Not long after Wei Qing came here, he was still reporting the results of his training these days, but Chen Yu stumbled and came. Li Yannian came to report, and when Liu Che heard that it was Chen Yu, he felt a little unhappy.

After all, this Chen Yu has a good-looking skin, and his mouth is usually smeared with honey, but he needs to be talented and knowledgeable, and he needs courage and courage.

Chen Yu came in, knelt on the ground wheezing and panting, and said: "Empress... Please, please ask the emperor to read the official book immediately, I'm afraid there will be changes in the future!"

Hearing this, Liu Che's heart skipped a beat. Just now, he was so concerned about asking Taizhu Dou if he had publicized the edict, but he forgot to read the official scriptures.

Liu Che immediately stood up and went out, saying, "Wei Qing, come with me."

Wei Qing didn't know what happened, so he hurriedly followed Liu Che out.

Liu Che took Wei Qing to the Shangshu Dahang and asked the officials to open the cabinet. As expected, it was empty.

Liu Che was a little dazed for a moment, his mind went blank, and the cabinet where the files were stored was empty, that is to say, the will was forged, no matter whether it was the intention of Emperor Jing or not, it was all forged.

Liu Che's breath stuck in his throat. He was still thinking just now. In fact, this edict was written very implicitly. It didn't say too bluntly that the East Palace could be abolished. Even if it was taken out, it would be fine to check and balance the power of the East Palace. Dou Ying, why not do it.

It's just that he never thought that someone would be one step ahead of him and wanted to cure Dou Ying to death.

Liu Che's face was sullen, ice scum almost fell off his face, and he said to the officials, "Who has been here today?"

The official hesitated, raised his head and secretly glanced at Liu Che, but did not speak.

Wei Qing also took a look at Liu Che. He had been with the emperor for so long, and Liu Che's expression had never been so frightening.

Liu Che stared at the official and shouted, "I'm asking you, who came here just now?"

The official immediately knelt down and replied tremblingly, "Mother...the queen mother and the prime minister have been here."

Liu Che felt that he was not surprised at all when he heard this answer, but the anger in his heart had reached its peak, as if his chest was about to explode, Liu Che just sneered and said, "Okay, very good."

After saying that, he turned and walked out, Wei Qing followed and said, "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

Liu Che rubbed his forehead as he walked, let out a long breath, and sighed, "Dou Ying... I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it."

Wei Qing was a little surprised when he heard it, and said: "Wei Qihou just went to the Ting Wei Office to investigate for a few days, why... why can't we keep it?"

Liu Che didn't speak, got into the car, pointed his head to Li Yannian and said, "Bring Tian Fu to me."

Li Yannian said: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has just reported illness."

"Sick? Isn't it still there in the morning?"

Li Yannian bowed his head and said: "This slave doesn't know, but the prime minister is indeed sick, just before the emperor went to Shangshu Daxing."

Liu Che finally understood, sneered again, and said, "Okay, the prime minister is ill, I thought I would not be able to find him if he was ill...Go to the East Palace."

The riding slave responded, Li Yannian lowered the curtain of the carriage, and the carriage went to the East Palace.

Tian Fu got out of the Queen Mother's car, first went to report illness, and said that he would go home to recuperate, in case the emperor came to find him, and then felt uneasy, and ran to the East Palace to talk to the Queen Mother.

As he was talking, he listened to the servant's announcement that the emperor had arrived.

Tian Fu was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat, and hurriedly hid in the inner room. Because the queen mother had burned the will, she was also a little scared, so she straightened her clothes and sat down calmly.

As soon as the Queen Mother sat on the upper Feng seat, Liu Che strode in.

Seeing his expression, the Queen Mother already guessed in her heart that Taizhu Dou must have handed over the edict to the emperor. I am afraid that the emperor is here to Xingshi to question the crime.

The Queen Mother thought well, Liu Che did come here to inquire about the crime, but it was not to tell the Queen Mother that she had a will to abolish the East Palace, but because she and Tian Fu secretly transferred the will to archive.

Liu Che's face was cold, and he didn't greet him after entering, but just stood there.

After being stared at by him for a long time, the Queen Mother felt a little guilty, and said bravely, "What's wrong with the emperor today? With such a temper, look at this posture, can you ask me for a crime?"

Liu Che didn't speak, but just looked around for a week, as if he was looking for someone. Because the Queen Mother hid Tian Fu in the inner room, she was afraid that he would see something.

Immediately stood up and said: "What is the emperor's reason for coming here?"

Liu Che finally opened his mouth and said, "I'm here to find my good uncle."

The Queen Mother trembled in her heart, pretended nothing happened, and said, "Tian Fu is not here with me, isn't he on leave, he is probably resting at home right now."

Liu Che laughed, and said, "Okay, since uncle is not here, and mother is so partial to uncle, it's the same to tell mother about anything."

As he spoke, he took out something from his pocket and threw it in front of the Queen Mother.

The queen mother saw the thing at first glance, her soul flew away, her face was pale with fright, the thing fell in front of the queen mother's feet, the queen mother didn't even need to pick it up, she knew what was written on it, after all, it was not long ago , She burned the archive of this thing herself.

The Queen Mother pretended to say: "What is it?" Then she bent down and picked it up, and then pretended to unfold it to look at it, and finally said in pretended surprise: "What is this! This is a fake! How could the former emperor treat it like this?" Me? Shit, I am your own mother. How did your mother treat you? After all these years, can’t you see? My mother has worked so hard to raise you and help you ascend the throne. You can’t listen to slander!"

Liu Che observed the Queen Mother's face from the beginning to the end, and then said, "Mother just took a look and knew it was fake. Have you seen it before?"

The queen mother's eyes widened immediately, she took a step back, dragged the edict onto Liu Che, and shouted at the top of her lungs: "What do you mean? What do you mean! You are doubting me, but you are doubting mother? I didn't I've seen this kind of shit! It's fake, fake!"

Liu Che narrowed his eyes, and said, "Since it's fake, why did mother lose her composure? This morning, where did mother and uncle go and what did they take, can't they remember clearly? The son insisted on reminding mother. What about it!"

When the Queen Mother heard this, the expression on her face was extremely angry at first, and then she laughed, and said, "Hey, this is indeed a fake. If it is true, the fake will never become real. Don't you know?"

Liu Che saw that the queen mother's face changed from anger to joy. The other party must have figured it out. The archives have been destroyed, and he has no other way to prove that the edict is true.

Liu Che looked at the Queen Mother laughing, feeling chills in his heart, and said, "Mother, do you really want to do this?"

The Queen Mother turned her head and walked to Feng Zuo, and said: "I didn't have to do this, someone forced me, and you saw it, someone forced me!"

As he spoke, he seemed to remember what was said in the will, and suddenly became angry again, kicking over the cushion that Feng was sitting on.

The queen mother did this unintentionally, but when the mat was opened, there was a piece of silk cloth inside, and there were some writings on it.She didn't care about it herself, but there was handwriting on it, and the East Palace had always been the place where the Empress Dowager lived, if there was anything, it must have been left by the Empress Dowager.

The Queen Mother squatted down, picked up the cloth, glanced at it briefly, opened her eyes wide, then turned to Liu Che, raised her hand, and said with a smile: "Hey, mother also has something to show you here, come and see. This is left to you by the old lady, your good grandma."

Liu Che didn't expect a sudden change, so he walked two steps over, snatched the silk cloth and unfolded it for a look. Suddenly, the world spun and he almost couldn't stand still. It was written by the Empress Dowager herself.

It turned out to be exactly the same as Emperor Jing's edict, except that the protagonist changed from the Queen Mother to the owner of Jiaofang Palace, Chen Ajiao.

Before she passed away, the old lady called Liu Che to her and told him a few things, one of which was to pay attention to Ying Zheng. The old lady could see that Ying Zheng was not a simple person, but he was afraid that he would worry too much, so I only mentioned one sentence to Liu Che.

The old lady finished writing the brocade silk and did not give it to anyone in the end, but it is estimated that the Empress Dowager did not expect that the first person to read this letter was the Empress Dowager, and it was at this juncture...

-

Dou Taizhu and Chen Yu were still turning the mill in the Jiaofang Hall, when Chu Fu came over and said, "Mother, Li Yanlai is here."

Yingzheng was a little suspicious. Li Yannian usually followed Liu Che, but Chu Fu said that Li Yannian was here, not Liu Che, so he felt something was wrong.

Li Yannian came with an imperial decree, and everyone knelt down to receive the decree, so that Dou Taizhu, Chen Yu, and even Yingzheng did not expect that the content of the imperial decree was that Empress Chen controlled the government, abolished the queen, and took back the seal ribbon , so that the abolished Empress Gillian retreated to the Nagato Palace.

Master Dou was stunned after hearing this, and said: "No, why abolish my daughter?"

Li Yannian finished reading the imperial decree in a regular manner, but said: "Master, please please, this is what the emperor fought for in every possible way. Who dares to disobey the decree of the empress dowager, the meaning of the empress dowager?"

Yingzheng did not expect such a catastrophe, he tried his best to avoid the fate of the abolished empress, but he counted everything, whether it was fame or prestige, even the emperor's favor, but things were still on an irreversible track stretch down.

Liu Che didn't go to the Jiaofang Hall. Li Yannian was right. After the abolition, it was the result of hard work. If it was according to the Queen Mother's intention, it would be to have Yingzheng beheaded and abandoned like Dou Ying.

Liu Che was a little tired, so after finishing the imperial edict, he asked Li Yannian to prepare the car and go to the prison.

Dou Ying didn't expect that the emperor would come to see her in person, so she was flattered and knelt down to pay her respects, but she saw Liu Che's expression was not right.

Liu Che didn't let the prisoner open through the cell door, but just sat down on the floor and spoke lightly. At this time, Liu Che's heart was a little dead silent, and he said, "Dou Ying...do you know that you are doing something to protect Guanfu? I did my best, but... you don't know how many things have been involved in Guan Fu's matter."

The more Dou Ying listened, the more she felt that something was wrong, and said, "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

Liu Che just looked at Dou Ying calmly, and said, "Did the late emperor leave you a will?"

Dou Ying was taken aback. He didn't expect Liu Che to know about this matter. Whether he or the empress dowager had kept this matter a secret, and after the empress dowager left, he should be the only one who knew about it, but he was still honest. replied: "Yes."

Liu Che said: "Do you know that this edict has already been presented to me by Dou Taizhu?"

"What!" Dou Ying said in shock, "I don't know, this is not what I mean."

"Whether it's your intention or not..." Liu Che sighed, rolling his throat several times, before saying, "Whether it's your intention or not, this will has been submitted and made public, but Dou Ying ,but……"

Liu Che looked at Dou Ying, and said, "But Shang Shu Da Xing... doesn't have this archive."

Dou Ying grabbed the railing with a bang and said, "Impossible! Your Majesty, you have to believe me. This is absolutely impossible. The last edict was indeed given to me by the late Emperor!"

Liu Che stood up abruptly, grabbed the railing as well, and said, "Dou Ying, I believe in you, but I want to tell you that there is no Shangshu Daxing, and there is no such archive! Now someone is impeaching you for forging a will... "

Dou Ying's whole body suddenly vented, and she sat down slumped. Liu Che said, "It's not just that, because of your matter, I have just issued an imperial decree... abolish the queen, and take away the seal and ribbon."

"emperor?"

Liu Che also sat down and said, "I'm incapable, I can't protect anyone."

"Your Majesty..." Dou Ying raised her head, looked at Liu Che and said, "Your Majesty, don't say such things. You are still young, and you still have a long way to go. I believe that the former Emperor handed over the court to the Emperor, and he must also believe that the Emperor can do it." Competent ones are not like veterans... not like veterans... It's just that veterans have troubled the empress."

Liu Che said: "I feel bad in my heart, but I hope you will scold me now, and scold me severely!"

Dou Ying smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you have already experienced the tempering of the Empress Dowager, so why do you care about the tempering given to you by the Empress Dowager... The late emperor expected everything, but the late emperor predicted one thing wrong, that is ...The emperor does not need anyone to assist and supervise the country at all!"

Dou Ying said, took a step back, bowed deeply, and said: "The old minister has not been able to share much of the emperor's worries in his life, and he is ashamed of his trust in the late emperor when he goes down to the ground. I... feel ashamed."

Liu Che sat on the ground, watching Dou Ying laughing and crying at the same time, kowtowing to himself once, twice, and three times. Liu Che's eyes suddenly became a little sore, so he could only sit on the floor of the cell, watching Dou Ying through the railing. He kowtowed again and again, listening to the slight "dong dong", suddenly thought of what Ying Zheng said to himself, to be an emperor, one must be tolerant and ruthless.

When Liu Che came out of the dungeon, he could go to see Dou Ying for the last time, but he didn't dare to see Ying Zheng. Although Liu Che once doubted Ying Zheng, he also felt that he was almost a master. It is no longer what the second Empress Lu can describe.

It's just that Liu Che never thought of killing Yingzheng or abolishing him. The queen mother took the imperial edict from the empress dowager, and it was Liu Che who promised not to pursue Tian Fu's matter that Yingzheng's life was saved.

How can Liu Che go to see Yingzheng with this kind of perfection? Maybe in a few years, when Liu Che's power is enough to isolate the East Palace, he will bring Yingzheng back from Nagato Palace.

Liu Che thought well, and the Queen Mother and Tian Fu also thought of this.

Tian Fu said: "In my opinion, this Empress Chen is more difficult than Dou Ying. The emperor's mind is still on Empress Chen. I am afraid that there will be recurrence in the future. As long as he is allowed to leave the Nagato Palace, we may be in trouble in the days to come." It's hard."

The Queen Mother sneered and said, "Isn't this easy? How he treated Wang Hui back then, we should treat him now. Isn't it simple?"

Tian Fu said: "This...I'm afraid I can't do this matter, brother. Although the emperor said that he would not pursue my problem, he must have held a grudge. If I do this matter again, the emperor will definitely find a chance Just kill me!"

The Queen Mother said: "What are you afraid of? Dou Ying will be executed soon. Let's see how the Dou family will turn around in the future."

When Tian Fu heard that Dou Ying was going to be executed, his whole body trembled involuntarily. The crime of forging a will is not a small one. Dou Ying's family has more than 100 people, and Tian Fu pushed it to the guillotine himself. How can he hear it? not afraid.

The Queen Mother laughed and said: "The most regrettable thing is Taizhu Dou's family. His daughter entered the Nagato Palace, and Dou Ying was about to be beheaded. Taizhu Dou has nothing to do except to go in and out of the palace, Mrs. Pity."

Tian Fu said: "Sister, let's accept it as soon as we see it, lest the emperor make trouble with us."

Yingzheng moved from Jiaofang Palace to Nagato Palace. He is very familiar with the furnishings here, not because he has lived here, but because Yingzheng was here before. He saw a haggard woman singing "Husband He is a beautiful woman, stepping freely to worry about herself", and finally died of depression.

But Ying Zheng turned into this woman, wearing Chen Ajiao's shell, and established her own power in the Jiaofang Palace, but when he gained the hearts of the people and subdued the talents, all that was left was the last step, and things took a turn for the worse. .

Ying Zheng squinted his eyes and looked outside the hall when suddenly a maid came in and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has sent someone to see you."

Dou Ying was beheaded and abandoned the city because he forged the edict, and abandoned the city in Weicheng. Wei Qihou's family had more than one hundred species, all of whom were beheaded.

Liu Che opened his arms and asked Li Yannian to help him straighten his sleeves. Then he helped Fu Mian, left the bedroom, got into the car, and went to Chengming Hall.

The officials lined up on both sides of the gate of Chengming Palace early. As soon as Liu Che's chariot arrived, the officials knelt down and shouted long live. Liu Che got out of the car and walked into the hall. facing court.

After all officials attended the ceremony, Tian Fu reported Wei Qihou's beheading, and the Chengming Hall was silent for a while.

Liu Che's throat choked for a moment, and suddenly he smiled at Tian Fu, "Prime Minister, are you cured?"

Tian Fu didn't expect Liu Che to have the leisure to pursue the matter of his pretending to be sick. "This... this... ah, back to the emperor, my minister's illness is indeed cured."

Liu Che continued to laugh and said: "In my opinion, among the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the prime minister is always sick and taking leave, and the imperial historian Han Anguo is not in good health recently. It is rumored that my court is old and useless. I thought I was exploiting you veterans."

As Liu Che said this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he said coldly, "It's time for my court to change."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately said: "Tian Fu's illness is also cured, and the emperor will leave it to Tian Fu to handle the matter of changing officials?"

Liu Che didn't speak, but just gave the Queen Mother a slight glance. The Queen Mother trembled in her heart, but after thinking about it, Dou Ying had already been executed, and no one made herself afraid anymore.

The emperor did not speak, and the ministers of the whole court did not dare to intervene. What the Queen Mother said was ignored, which made her lose face and was extremely embarrassed.

After a long time, Liu Che said: "This matter, wait a little longer, I have my own plan in mind."

After he finished speaking, no one spoke. Liu Che glanced at Li Yannian, and Li Yannian hurriedly said loudly: "I have something to play."

Everyone was speechless, Liu Che stood up and walked down the steps, which meant that he was about to go down, but just after walking two steps, a servant rushed in, "Putong" knelt down, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, the abolished Empress Chen Shi, died of illness last night."

Liu Che's mind was blank for a moment, and he didn't react at all, but the Queen Mother glanced at Tian Fu, and Tian Fu was also looking at the Queen Mother, both of them had happy expressions on their faces.

Tian Fu didn't know that just after laughing, when he looked up, he saw that the emperor was looking at him with squinted eyes, and he panicked immediately, and quickly lowered his head, pretending that he didn't see it.

Liu Che thought very well. After a few years, he would win the fight against the queen mother and take Yingzheng back to live in Jiaofang Palace, but he thought too well.

Liu Che felt that at this moment, he had lost everything, whether it was the first Confucian scholar, the one who was loyal to him, or the Ying Zheng who cared most in his heart. Only when he truly became a loner did Liu Che feel that, Everything in the past seems to be too immature.Whether it's impulsive, bold, or self-forbearing, they are all too immature.

Liu Che stepped down the steps step by step, turned around slowly, and the jade beads on the crown shook gently, making a crisp sound.He slowly scanned the candlesticks, the dragon seat, the queen mother and the ministers on the Chengming Hall with his eyes.

The ministers didn't dare to say a word. The people in this hall have all experienced Ying Zheng's resourcefulness and skill. Some admired, some were afraid, some were afraid, and some were sorry. They all held their breath and watched Liu Che step by step. Walk out of Chengming Palace.

Liu Che got into the car, Li Yannian put down the curtain, and heard the emperor's voice from inside the car.
