The queen was fidgeting in Zhongxiu Palace, she kept looking at the door, waiting for the emperor to come over.

The guards on duty in Zhongxiu Palace had already been replaced by Chu Xi's people, and the queen carefully observed these people, fearing that her performance was not natural enough to be noticed.

When it was three o'clock, Liu Xi brought a few young eunuchs over to pass the word that the emperor would not be coming tonight.

The queen's complexion changed, and suddenly she was a little ugly.Just as he was about to ask the reason, Liu Xi stopped him.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is discussing countermeasures against the enemy with Commander Xiao in the Imperial Study Room. It's really unintentional. Your Majesty, don't bother the Emperor any more." Liu Xi said, and glanced at the little eunuch beside him.

The little eunuch took a step forward with a plate of pastries.

The queen followed that gaze, her eyes were startled, and she immediately became quiet.

She nodded and sighed, "My palace was also at fault for Zhang Shuli's rebellion. It's lucky that the emperor didn't blame him. Since the emperor has important matters to discuss with Commander Xiao, then I won't bother you."

"Your Majesty understands righteousness, so the emperor naturally understands. The matter of General Chu may be unavoidable. So the emperor specially ordered the imperial dining room to make some exquisite pastries for the empress, so that the empress should not worry about this matter. Empress, the emperor still reads Ma'am, it's alright."

After finishing speaking, Liu Xi waved the fly whisk in his hand, and said to the little eunuch behind him, "You guys are so good at serving the empress." Then he turned around and said respectfully to the empress, "Your Majesty, the servant has already passed on this word, then The slave will leave first."

The queen waved her hand, "Go!"

Then she looked at the group of little eunuchs, and suddenly there was a person among them that she hated the most.Her hand slowly clenched into a fist, secretly unwilling in her heart.At this time, the emperor is still thinking about this woman from the flattery hall.

It's a pity, it's a pity that today's life and death are not up to the emperor, she will never let this woman go.

After the third watch, the queen had already made up her mind.It was Chu Xi's most trusted lieutenant, Liu Weiguang, who came to escort her out of the palace.

This person doesn't have much ability, but he has Chu Xi's deep trust.He also obeyed Chu Xi's words and never had any second thoughts.From him, it can be seen that Chu Xi still cares about the Queen's daughter.

Changsheng Gate is not far from Zhongxiu Palace, and the guards of Changsheng Gate have also been replaced by Chu Xi's men.Chu Xi was worried that her daughter would be coerced by the emperor, so she thought of a way out early in the morning.

Speaking of Chu Xi's coquettishness, he pays attention to his own fame and status, after all, he is still good to this daughter.Back then, the queen's mother was also a famous beauty, Chu Xi was able to have what she is today thanks to the support of the queen's mother.So Chu Xi felt guilty when the queen's mother died young.

This time, he was unwilling to collude with Zhang Shuli for rebellion.

But Lu has come to this point, and he can't help but regret it.

There were few stars, and the queen followed behind Liu Weiguang, walking towards the gate of prosperity.Followed by a few young eunuchs, Liu Weiguang asked attentively, "Queen, this is the imperial palace, and there are many people here. If people find out, the queen may not be able to leave the palace to meet General Chu."

"Vice General Liu, these are people who have served me for many years. These people know my diet and daily life best. If I were someone else, I would not be used to it. Besides, there are only a few young eunuchs. General Chu probably didn't say anything. Can't you take it with you?"

Liu Weiguang hesitated a little, "General Chu did not say no to this. But..."

"Okay, okay, okay!" The queen was a little impatient, and interrupted hastily, "I know that this is an extraordinary period, but there are only a few eunuchs. In this way, I will bring a few less people."

The queen pointed to some of the eunuchs, "You, you, and the rest of you go with me, and the rest stay here."

The queen's finger made Wei Yuanqi, who was among the eunuchs, immediately turn pale.Concubine Dong happened to be among the people she left behind, he didn't believe it, the queen didn't know, and he didn't believe it, the queen did it unintentionally.

But right now he can't completely turn his back on the empress, so he can only secretly nod to Concubine Dong as a sign of comfort.

Concubine Dong was never surprised, she seemed to have understood it long ago.At that moment, he and those little eunuchs retreated obediently to the side.Seeing the emperor and queen leave the gate of prosperity.

Outside the gate of Changsheng, Chu Xi had been waiting there with his men and horses for a long time.

Before that, he was still lying in the new wife's room, enjoying the pleasure of the boudoir.This new lady is Danping, the maid of honor next to the queen.She wanted to climb the high gate wholeheartedly, and the queen really followed her wish.

Although Chu Xi is over half a hundred years old, his charm is still the same as before.Danping was a wife for the first time, and in order to win favor, she used all her charm skills.Although not as beautiful and enchanting as the girl from Yanyu Building, she still has a unique flavor.And it's still a virgin girl's house, so Chu Xi never went to other wives' rooms these days.

If you want to keep a man's heart, it's useless to rely on beauty alone, the most important thing is to spread the leaves.So Danping is eagerly looking forward to being able to conceive Chu Xi's child, which will not only improve her status in the Chu family, but also save her from being a slave to the queen.

Danping was able to marry Chu Xi, and the queen contributed a lot.It's just that what the queen wants is Danping as an internal response.Now that Zhang Shuli is openly rebelling against him, Chu Xi is also involved.Although Danping doesn't know the pros and cons of this, she understands that if you marry a chicken, you will marry a dog, and once Chu Xi loses, her good days will come to an end.

So after Chu Xi and Danping had some flirting, Danping pushed her out.

The queen wants to save the emperor, and she will definitely do it tonight.As long as Chu Xi goes to intercept him at this time, it will completely cut off the emperor's way of retreat.When Zhang Shuli succeeds, Chu Xi will naturally follow suit, and she will also benefit a lot by then.

Chu Xi, who got the news, moved immediately.

At this moment, he was looking sleepily at the people who came out of the Changsheng Gate, yawned and asked, "My dear girl, who are these people?"

The queen lowered her head and smiled, "These are the eunuchs who are serving me. They are the most clear about my diet and daily life. If it were someone else, I would not be used to it. Daddy wouldn't even agree to this, would he?" ?”

"Hehe, of course not. It's just that other people can do it, which one can't?" Chu Xi pointed to one of the eunuchs.

The queen immediately stepped forward to stand in front of the eunuch, "This is the little Sheng next to me, who is diligent and smart. I will keep it for future use."

Chu Xi had seen clearly who the eunuch was early in the morning, and couldn't help but sneer, "I didn't believe Danping when she said it. My dear daughter, do you think that you saved the emperor, and he would be grateful to you? Over the years, you It's just a move in his hand."

He turned his eyes, looked at the people behind the queen, and suddenly burst into laughter, "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that! I didn't expect that I would be waiting for you here. Do you think that as long as you follow the queen out of the palace, you can escape from Chang'an City?" , found Meng Qiucheng, can you make a comeback?

Hehe, it's not certain whether Meng Qiucheng will come back!Prime Minister Zhang had already set up a net at the city gate, if he was smarter and didn't come back, he might be able to live his whole life incognito.If he is greedy for glory and comes back, hmph, he will also die. "

Chu Xi took the horse two steps forward, looked down at the king of Da Zhou, and sneered, "Your Majesty, at the beginning, I always thought that if I became a relative of the emperor, my official career would be smooth. But what about you? They are just empty positions, and they are still controlled by others. Don't blame the ministers. The water flows to the lower places and people go to the higher places. What the Prime Minister can give to the ministers, the emperor can't give.

Originally, he thought that Xiao Mubai was guarding the palace, but he would have to spend several days fighting hard.Unexpectedly, my good daughter helped me and saved me a lot of trouble.Today, let Chen give you a good ride! "

Chu Xi drew out the long knife at his waist, drove his horse forward, and approached step by step.

The queen also panicked, she wanted to take the emperor away, but she fell into the trap.Just when she was about to ask her father to do her best, suddenly a group of elite soldiers poured out from the gate of prosperity.

These people are not like the guards in the palace, but they rushed out together with the Imperial Forest Army led by Xiao Mubai.

The outside of the Changsheng Gate was suddenly lit with torches, and people ambushing everywhere rushed to surround Chu Xi.

Chu Xi panicked, and the horse neighed again and again in fright at the movement around him.

And the person standing behind the queen had a murderous look in his eyes, and his whole body was so cold that it was frightening.He opened his mouth slowly, "General Chu's nonsense is over? When it's over, then it's up to me to talk. General Chu made a mistake today. It's not you sending me off, but I want to send you off."

Chu Xi was shocked, looking at the torches and moving heads all around, and said repeatedly, "Impossible, impossible! You have fought against Zhang Shuli's people many times before, and there are only three thousand imperial guards left in the palace. These people, who are these people?"

Wei Yuanqi took off the eunuch's hat, and said with a serious face, "Chu Xi, you and Zhang Shuli are colluding together, and you want to kill me. But you want to fight me?"

Chu Xi was stunned for a moment. When he looked at Wei Yuanqi immediately, his back was like a glow, as if he was looking at a beast that had been hungry for a long time. Now that he stood in front of such a beast, he undoubtedly became the prey.

After all, he couldn't resist that gaze, and turned over and dismounted involuntarily.

"Is all this arranged by the emperor long ago?"

Wei Yuanqi didn't hide anything, and nodded directly, "Why do you think I don't let Meng Qiucheng continue to investigate Fang Jinzhong's case? Do you think I don't know who is behind Fang Jinzhong? You think you falsely followed Zhang Shuli to rebel, and I don't know the reason." ?"

A series of doubts, but every sentence has an affirmative answer, which makes Chu Xi feel weak on his feet, and suddenly becomes a little scared.

"The emperor knew it early on, so why..."

"Why do you still pretend to be trapped in the capital under Zhang Shuli's control? Heh, because Zhang Shuli is just like you, it is just a move in the hands of others. I know that you are forced to do nothing, but you are not forced by Zhang Shuli. It's not Zhang Shuli's people, you are obeying King Fucheng."

Chu Xi's pupils opened suddenly, surprised.

Wei Yuanqi went on to say, "This time Zhang Shuli pretended to be smart and fell out with King Fucheng completely. He thought he could control the overall situation. In fact, I knew from the time you helped Zhang Shuli to plot rebellion that this was a game between me and King Fucheng.

When Meng Qiucheng left, he told me that I must be careful to become the king, and had already arranged for a follower.An Rong also left behind people from the Dark Guard camp, lurking around the palace.The guards at the Changsheng Gate are not yours at all.Your people have long been killed by people from the Dark Guard Camp.

I have waited until now to find out the traitors in the palace one by one, so I have to spend so much trouble.

And you are the first person I want to get rid of. "

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Mubai led people forward, and Chu Xi knew that he couldn't escape, so he never resisted.Xiao Mubai captured Chu Xisheng effortlessly.

Chu Xi looked up at Wei Yuanqi, the expression on his face changed a few times, and finally he laughed, "The emperor is scheming, and he is more decisive than the former emperor. It's a pity, it's a pity that you also underestimated King Fucheng, Gao Looking at Meng Qiucheng, the emperor was counting on Meng Qiucheng to save him, so he might be disappointed.

Because it is absolutely impossible for him to enter the city alive, hahaha, you are about to be disappointed, Your Majesty! "

Wei Yuanqi frowned, Xiao Mubai also asked worriedly from the side, "Your Majesty, do you want to send someone to the city gate to meet him?"

Wei Yuanqi shook his head, "The enemy is outnumbered and we are few. It is easy to catch Chu Xi, but Zhang Shuli has the support of the ministers of the court and has [-] elite soldiers. If he goes out, he will die. Now we have to guard the palace to have a chance of survival." .As long as the reinforcements dragged to Xiliang arrive, neither Zhang Shuli nor King Fucheng will be able to escape."

"But Mr. Meng..." Although Xiao Mubai had prejudice against Meng Qiucheng, he couldn't bear it at this time.But halfway through the conversation, seeing Wei Yuanqi's serious face, he didn't dare to say more.

Wei Yuanqi turned around and wanted to go back to the palace. He caught a glimpse of the empress who was already frozen on the ground. After thinking for a while, he said coldly, "The empress is not feeling well, so she may infect others. From now on, she will stay in Zhongxiu Palace for treatment, and she is not allowed to step out of Zhongxiu Palace."

The queen looked at Wei Yuanqi's back, and then laughed wildly.

She once loved her with all her heart, but in the end, jealousy became a means available to him in his eyes.Since the emperor is so ruthless, but he has never given him any ruthlessness.

What kind of physical discomfort, what staying in the palace for medical treatment, is just an excuse to turn her Zhongxiu Palace into a lifelong slumber.

In front of him, her scheming methods are nothing but ugly and evil deeds.

The queen pushed away the little eunuch who came forward to help her, and asked loudly with a smile, "Your Majesty, in your heart, who have you ever loved?"

She couldn't wait for an answer, and she didn't want to wait.

The cold sword crossed the throat, Wei Yuanqi's footsteps paused slightly, but he didn't look back.

When she looked up, Concubine Dong was standing at the gate of Changsheng looking at him.

Concubine Dong moved her mouth, but finally said nothing.

Wei Yuanqi stepped forward, took her into his arms, and said softly, "When Meng Qiucheng comes back, when the reinforcements from Xiliang arrive, I promise you that I will make you queen."

Concubine Dong's heart trembled, she didn't dare to look at Wei Yuanqi's face.What she wants is not the position of empress, what she wants is a sincere heart.

But at this time, the queen made her fully understand that, as an emperor, what he wants is not the admiration of women, but the obedience of the whole world.
