Chapter 162: Lord Xie Feng
The Empress's face was also a little pale. She closed her eyes and the eyelashes on her eyes were shaking slowly.
"Your Majesty has some problems with his body..."
After making up his mind, Queen Xie gritted her teeth and said it.
"As early as the five years of Taikang, Your Majesty felt that he was not energetic and had a headache often. He has been taking medicine in the past few years and has not achieved much results. The headache has become worse in the past two years."
She opened her eyes and looked at her younger brother.
“Sometimes I can’t sleep for several days.”
Xie Jing's face turned pale, and he looked at his sister, his voice trembling: "How could it be..."
"Your Majesty is in his prime..."
Empress Xie was married into the Wei Palace when she was in her teens. It has been more than ten years since then. She has been with the emperor even longer than in the Xie family. The couple respect each other and have always had a good relationship. After hearing the words of her brother, she sighed long.
"I can't understand how His Majesty is only in his thirties."
The Empress looked at her younger brother with a sad look on her face.
"A few days ago, His Majesty's condition worsened. He told me that he had no fate as an emperor, but someone pushed him to this position, so he couldn't do it for a long time..."
Speaking of this, the Queen's voice trembled a little.
"I didn't believe this, but His Majesty..."
Speaking of this, her eyes were red and she could no longer say anything.
Xie Jing lowered his head and fell silent.
It took him a little hoarse voice after a while.
"Sister, your majesty..."
The Queen shook her head, her voice bitter.
"I don't know either."
"Your Majesty is in his prime, I hope he can get through..."
Xie Jing's voice was hoarse.
"If Your Majesty's situation is really critical, then what you should think about now is not Your Majesty..."
Although what he said was a bit obscure, the meaning was still very obvious, meaning that if Emperor Taikang was in danger of his life, then the most important thing the Empress should consider at this time was how to make his son, the eldest son of the emperor, succeed to the throne.
Although her son is already His Royal Highness, An Yi, as long as the emperor has an accident, he can pass the throne legitimately, but there is never any sure thing about the matter in the power field. Take the example of Emperor Taikang's succession ten years ago as an example. The prince at that time was not the emperor today!
Moreover, there is also Concubine Shu from the Ye family and Concubine De from the family of the family of the family of the ancestral family in the palace. Both of these concubines have descendants. When it comes to the power of the mother clan, the Xie family is much inferior to these two families!
The Empress looked at her brother with a pale face.
"you mean?"
Xie Jing gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, you should be prepared."
"I was in charge of Qianniuwei, but a few days ago I was sent to the southwest and lost the Qianniuwei's errand. Sister, you want to help me get Qianniuwei back!"
Xie Jing took a deep breath and continued, "There is the Yulin Guard. The Yulin Guard is under the charge of Xie Dai. Although he is not in the capital, he still has the errands of the Yulin Guard. After I left the palace, I immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to him and asked him to rush back to the capital as soon as possible no matter what."
Speaking of this, Xie Jing looked up at his sister.
"There is also the Eunuch Xiao in the palace."
After pausing, he spoke, "Eunuch Xiao is taking care of the affairs in the palace, including the inner guard. Ten years ago, when the Renchen Palace changed, something went wrong in the palace. Sister, no matter what, you should try your best to win Eunuch Xiao, at least..."
"At least we must win the inner guard!"
"The Three Imperial Guards are the most important force in the capital. As long as my sister can grasp the Three Imperial Guards, no matter what happens in the capital, we can deal with it calmly."
The Queen frowned deeply.
"Your Majesty is just sick, we are just taking power so much. If Your Majesty suddenly recovers one day, wouldn't we be guilty?"
"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, I'm afraid of anything!"
Xie Jing said in a muffled voice: "If Your Majesty can be well, it will be the best. At that time, all the sins will be pushed onto my head, or Xie Dai will be onto my head. No matter what sins the Xie family has eaten, it doesn't matter if I and Xie Dai are both cut and weave them for the people. As long as His Royal Highness can ascend the throne smoothly, everything will not be a problem."
Speaking of this, Xie Jing looked up at his sister and said in a deep voice: "If the capital changes, our family is not a match for the Chung family or any of the Ye family. Only by firmly grasping the Three Imperial Guards can the Prince's succession to the throne be guaranteed!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "Sister, what is the purpose of Your Majesty trying to place our Xie family in the imperial guards in the past few years?"
"Aren't you just asking me to protect His Highness?"
The Queen frowned slightly.
She hesitated for a while and said, "Things have not reached this point. Your Majesty just can't sleep now, and today I have a rare sleep. Maybe it will get better in a few days. We can't do anything stupid at this time."
She looked at Xie Jing and said, "When you come to the palace tomorrow, see Your Majesty, explain the situation in the southwest clearly to Your Majesty, and then wait and see in the capital."
Speaking of this, the Empress paused and continued, "As for Xie Dai, you can find a way to get him back to the capital as soon as possible. He is the General of the Yulin Guard, who was personally appointed by His Majesty, and can command the Yulin Guard with justification."
The lord of the harem who was in the world lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked at Xie Jing.
"You go to the southwest, have you ever seen Marquis Li?"
Xie Jing lowered his head and said, "I saw it."
He gritted his teeth and said, "I will meet Your Majesty tomorrow. Just as I am about to talk about this with Your Majesty, Li Xin clearly colluded with Mu Ying from the southwest to hold the court hostage and hold his own troops!"
"My brother even suspects that the matter in the southwest was basically driven by Li Changan. He also humiliated me in Jincheng and did not take you seriously at all!"
The uncle mentioned Li Xin and was angry.
"I think this guy is no different from his father Li Shen!"
The Queen frowned and spoke slowly to Xie Jing.
"The Xie family should not stand opposite to Jing'anhou."
She was silent for a while and said, "He is Yan'er's uncle and Yan'er's master. If Yan'er was not the prince, he would even be Yan'er's adoptive father."
The queen looked at Xie Jing.
"You and Xie Dai enter the Imperial Guard, just one of His Majesty's arrangements. The biggest backer behind the prince is this Marquis Jing'an."
"If the capital changes, as long as the Marquis of Jing'an comes back, the prince will be as stable as Mount Tai, and no one can make Yan'er's idea."
Xie Jing looked up in shock and looked at his serious sister.
"But sister, Li Xinhe..."
The Queen frowned.
"Do you think the ten Xie families are worth the weight of Jing'an Hou in the army?"
The ten Xie families combined together naturally have a much greater weight in the court than the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, but their influence in the army is much worse than that in Li Xin.
If the emperor dies and the new king succeeds to the throne, the most important thing is not the support in the court, but the support in the army.
The Jing'an Marquis Mansion, which is already comparable to the Ye family, is the strong support of His Royal Highness in the army.
Xie Jing was silent for a while, and finally bowed his head deeply to Queen Xie.
