Chapter 1753 The Empress Dowager's Sorrow
Everyone has different ideas, which is normal.
Dongfang Zetian was very surprised. She was mature and her ideas were different. "You can always brighten my eyes."
When she is together, she feels comfortable. She has a very special temperament and can always make the people around her calm.
Qiao Qiao smiled sweetly, "There is no way, it's so outstanding."
The first thing the emperor did when he returned to the palace was to issue an order, "Ji Ge Lao, drafted an order, Ping Kang, the daughter of the Empress Dowager, acted erraticly, poisoned the king, was sentenced to death, and was executed after autumn."
Master Ji gasped and something happened again?
Is Princess Pingkang crazy? Is she trying to rebel?
"Master, is this punishment too severe? After all, she is your mother."
This will make the world feel that his relatives are refusing to recognize him, being cruel and ruthless, which will damage his image.
Dongfang Zetian no longer tolerated this time, "I want everyone to know that those who dare to harm me will die!"
If he didn't deal with it like this, what would those traitors think?
They would think that even if they committed heinous crimes, the emperor would not take any serious action.
A rude emperor is destined to be killed.
The murderous words made the temperature inside cold, and Master Ji couldn't help but bow, "The Emperor is wise."
Forget it, this is a royal business, so how can he be a foreign minister be qualified to take charge of it?
Master Ji hesitated for a moment, his lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.
Dongfang Zetian saw it and asked coldly, "What else do you have to say?"
Ji Ge Lao frowned slightly, "Pingkang is not worthy of death, but the Empress Dowager..."
Although the Empress Dowager was imprisoned in the palace, she was the emperor's biological mother after all. If she got a fuss, everyone would be blind and not ending.
Dongfang Zetian's face was light and indifferent, "I will deal with it."
The Empress Dowager no longer poses a threat to him, so naturally he will not be able to affect him.
The emperor said so, what else can Master Ji say?
He drafted the imperial edict, asked the emperor to stamp it, and announced it to the world.
I think this movement will make the entire capital explode.
The night was getting darker, and the lights in the Qianqing Palace were gradually lit up. Dongfang Zetian summoned the leader of the secret guard, "Where has the King of Zhennan gone?"
The leader of the secret guard fell to the ground, "I'm in Shacheng. It's said that he's going all the way, I'm tired and sick, so I have to take care of it for a few days."
"Continue to stare." Dongfang Zetian narrowed his eyes slightly, "I want to see what other tricks he has?"
I'm afraid there were people who had been stationed by Zhennan in this capital, and in addition to the chess piece Ankang, there should be some.
He wants to uproot and eliminate future troubles forever.
"yes."
The night was getting darker and deeper, Dongfang Zetian was still busy, approving memorials after memorial at his desk.
The memorials piled up like a mountain gradually faded away, and his eyes were red with exhaustion.
People in the world say that being an emperor is good, but they don’t know how hard it is behind it.
It is easy to be a foolish king, but it is really difficult to be a wise king.
I don’t know how long it took, Eunuch Fu walked in from outside and whispered. “Emperor, the Queen Mother, please go see her.”
What good things can happen in the middle of the night?
The emperor did not raise his head and refused, "I am very busy, I will see her when I am free."
Eunuch Fu looked embarrassed, struggled for a while, and said carefully, "Emperor, the Empress Dowager is going to commit suicide."
The emperor raised an eyebrow. Her news was fast enough. It seemed that she could not block her from the eyes and ears.
He is worthy of being the empress dowager who has been in charge of the court for many years, and his confidants are all over the palace.
He was not surprised, but thought she was ridiculous. Today, she still refused to settle down. "She was lying on the bed and unable to move, so why did she commit suicide?"
People who need to be fed by palace maids at all times should have the strength to hit the wall? Or should they have the strength to hang themselves?
In his heart, Eunuch Fu scolded the people in the Empress Dowager's harem, but he would not do anything wrong.
What’s even more hateful is that the empress dowager has been tormenting before, but now she is reluctant to let the emperor go.
This is her biological son. Is there anyone who forced her son like this?
He began to doubt whether the emperor was the Queen Mother's biological son?
"She asked a palace servant to help her..."
Dongfang Zetian's face sank and he was very angry.
He was still so restless when he was sloppy in bed. Is he going to be sure that he would not hurt her life?
Eunuch Fu secretly felt sad for him. Is such a sister and a mother still allowed people to live?
But he also whispered, "Your Majesty, let's go and see the Queen Mother, so as not to hear bad news."
Even if it's just a show.
"Well." Dongfang Zetian stood up and walked out, and Eunuch Fu hurriedly followed.
Cining Palace
The lights were brightly lit, and several guards guarded outside the palace. When they saw the emperor coming, they saluted and greeted each other.
The queen mother in the inner room heard the movement, and a cold light flashed in her eyes, and finally came.
She stared at the door, and soon she saw a handsome figure walking in.
Her pale and haggard face showed a loving smile, but her eyes turned red, and two tears rolled down, "Young son, you are finally willing to come."
She cried with joy, very excited, as if she had been looking forward to him.
Dongfang Zetian glanced lightly. She was served well, she became fat and white.
His eyes fell on the palace maid who pointed the dagger at the empress dowager. The palace maid shook all over and his face turned pale, and the dagger in his hand almost fell to the ground.
The power of the king made him feel deeply.
Dongfang Zetian had a cold face and could not tell any emotion, "Empress Dowager, what are you doing?"
The slight and slight Queen Mother changed her face, but she just pretended that she didn't hear anything strange, and she missed her eyes, "Son, we mother and son haven't seen each other for a long time, I miss you very much."
She looked like a loving old mother, looking at an ignorant and willful child, with endless tolerance.
Dongfang Zetian raised his chin and pointed at the palace servant, "That's how you miss me?"
The palace servant was shocked and took a few steps back involuntarily.
The Empress Dowager was lying on the bed and could not move at all. Seeing this, a slight annoyance flashed in her eyes, but it passed away soon.
She looked at Dongfang Zetian with tears in her eyes.
"If this is not the case, how could you come to see me? Prince, do you know how painful your mother's heart is? My son, who was born with hard work ignores me and my daughter can't meet her. I feel uncomfortable."
When it comes to the pain, tears flow down, extremely sad.
Dongfang Zetian's face was a little soft, "You are in poor health, so you can take care of yourself. Don't worry about the ups and downs outside. With me here, you can always protect you from glory and wealth."
Even though he was slumped on the bed, he was still dressed in a rich and frugal manner, and he was full of servants and did not treat him at all.
The empress dowager's expression was very sad, "I don't want any glory and wealth, I just want my son's filial piety."
