Chapter 361: The Change of Seizing the Palace (1)
Before the incident, Yong'an Hou and Pei Changge secretly met many people.
The manpower and material resources required for this change are not small, even unexpectedly. Of course, the people they saw this time had already thought of ways to win over them. After all, there is not much time left for them, and they don’t have much time to be used to do unnecessary actions.
Similarly, there are too few people who can stand with them at the beginning.
Zhu Xun, the commander of the Imperial Army, was shocked by Pei Changge and his entourage.
Zhu Xun is not a good person, but he is not a bad person either. It seems that such a person is not difficult to be taken down, but it is precisely this kind of person who is the most difficult to control. It is difficult to understand the desires, so how can it be achieved?
Long before they went to find Zhu Xun, Ye Kui looked at the piece of paper about Zhu Xun's identity and personality and said to Pei Changge: "If you can't let him stand here, you can only destroy him first."
Sometimes, you can only do things in a desperate way.
Otherwise, a hidden danger left by accident may become a huge disaster at critical moments. A person like Zhu Xun is a huge hidden danger in Ye Kui's eyes. If you want to break into the imperial city, you can get help from Zhu Xun is an extremely important key point. With him, a lot of blood will not have to flow, and many people will not have to die.
But the more important a person is, the less it is usually impossible to deal with it easily. For example, Eunuch Cao, if they had not been to the painstaking pursuit and finally discovered the hidden clue of Concubine Yu, they would not have been able to pull Eunuch Cao onto a boat. Therefore, Ye Kui and Pei Changge agreed that it was extremely difficult to deal with Zhu Xun.
But who knew that what unexpected to everyone was not only not difficult, but even very easy.
Because Zhu Xun only said one sentence after learning about this.
——"The country is the most important, and the king is the most important."
So everyone suddenly realized that they had always regarded as important figures by them, so Lord Zhu Xun had no concern about who would sit on the dragon throne. In his opinion, there was no difference between whoever ascended the throne. However, Emperor Chengzhen's recent actions were really confusing and headache, and forced people to make a choice.
Zhu Xun chose to support the Thirteenth Prince.
Later, Ye Kui vaguely learned that Zhu Xun had a rift with the fifth prince.
But in other words, this may be fate. If not, the fifth prince would have been so angry that he would have been resentful by Zhu Xun.
But this also gave the Pei family an excellent opportunity.
Although the Thirteenth Prince was young, Zhu Xun, who didn't like the fifth prince, chose to stand on the side of the Pei family without hesitation. After Ye Kui learned about this from Pei Changge, she was very stunned. It took a long time to recover from Zhu Xun's casual attitude and sighed: "Zhu Xun is a character, but he has a temperament that is almost a child."
This time, it really seemed that even the sky was standing on their side.
The empress in the palace was under house arrest, but was ill, so she was not allowed to see people. The harem affairs were fully managed by Concubine Pei. No one thought it was strange. After all, this was not the first time. The empress is now the queen who was re-established after Empress Xiao passed away. At that time, Concubine Pei's status with Emperor Chengzhen was different from everyone. The empress was one step too late and could never catch up.
So she often pretends to be weak and sick, just to attract Emperor Chengzhen's attention.
But in this way, she unknowingly gave the power that should belong to her to Concubine Pei again and again. After all, she was still a little younger at that time, but when she finally came to her senses, it was too late.
It was too late, and it was too late. Now, even though she was clearly under house arrest by Concubine Pei, no one would have thought of this. Everyone just thought that she had started to play some tricks without caring about the queen's face. In the end, no one thought of Concubine Pei.
As a result, the person who was able to stay with Emperor Chengzhen was naturally the Concubine Pei.
All the women in the harem were willing to stay by Emperor Chengzhen when he was sick, and wanted to use his tenderness to melt the fragile man in the disease. But since there was Concubine Pei, the whole group could only stop thinking.
But no one expected that the concubine Yu, who was not involved, was specially summoned.
Eunuch Cao said it was the emperor's meaning.
Suddenly, no one could care about paying attention to Concubine Pei. A group of people were filled with Concubine Yu, how could he be so lucky and how could he please Emperor Chengzhen so much. It was clear that when the Seventh Prince was still alive, Concubine Yu had no conspicuous points at all, but now that her son is dead, she is even more eye-catching. I can't tell at all, right? But things happened so strangely.
The four words "Mother is noble by her son" are completely lost in the matter of Concubine Yu.
She was envious, jealous, and even hatred, but no one thought that Yufei's trip was not something to be envied. She just followed Eunuch Cao into the door, and completely lost the opportunity to go out.
To the outside world, Concubine Yu was accompanying Emperor Chengzhen, which was a sign of her favor. But in fact, not only did she not be favored by Emperor Chengzhen, she was imprisoned by death. Of course, these things were absolutely impossible to be leaked.
No one has ever thought that a huge change was coming.
Concubine Yu never thought that even if she had not even seen Emperor Chengzhen, she would be kept firmly guarded, but when facing the Eunuch Cao, she still said in confusion: "Don't the Emperor want to see me?"
Eunuch Cao bent his waist and lowered his head, looking as humble as any moment in the past, but said without any politeness: "The Empress is thinking a little bit wrong. The Emperor will have the imperial concubine accompany him, how could he think of you?"
"Then is the intention you passed on before false?" After hearing what he said, Yu Fei finally reacted a little and asked in surprise.
Eunuch Cao raised his head slightly, looked at her with a humble look, and said, "Yes."
When Yu Fei heard this, she took a deep breath and immediately shouted and scolded her, but then she realized something was wrong. Eunuch Cao was the first-class person around Emperor Chengzhen. He was also loyal to Emperor Chengzhen. He has been doing this for decades. How could he falsely pass the decree? And this decree was passed on to her specially? She couldn't understand!
"Eight Treasures..." Her thoughts were turned on, and she had already changed into a pitiful look, and hesitated to eavesdropping on the name of Eunuch Cao.
Eunuch Cao was indeed stunned when he heard the sound, but then he woke up, pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled slightly, saying, "Empress, let's rest."
Concubine Yu felt a chill in her heart, and she hurriedly wanted to call Eunuch Cao who was about to leave to ask the matter clearly, but there were other people present, besides her and Eunuch Cao, so how could she say something in front of these people? The eight treasures just now were already extremely special and risky.
She was in a mess and didn't know what to do.
In this panic, Eunuch Cao had already retreated with his men. The door was closed tightly, and even a fly could not fly in.
Thinking of this, Concubine Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
fly……
In this palace, let alone flies, even an ant is rare. Of course, it is impossible for flies to fly in through the cracks of the door. Similarly, even if she has wings, it is difficult for her to fly. What happened? Yu Fei sat down dejectedly, and the back of her hand hit the handle of the chair, which was so shocking. She screamed in pain, subconsciously holding the hand that turned red in an instant.
But I had just slept overnight, so why did the palace seem to have a different owner?
She thought about those great things, those plans, and then looked at her current situation, and was quite panicked.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of the tenth prince.
If the Tenth Prince was smarter, and if they could not see her going out or send her messages back, they would think that her current situation was not good. But the Tenth Prince was not a very intelligent person. Moreover, they never told the Tenth Prince that they had never told the Tenth Prince that they had been doing all the things.
Sometimes the emperor protects the tenth prince too well.
Concubine Yu thought so, and immediately felt so angry that she felt distressed.
She had put all her biological son in. Now she only hopes that the Tenth Prince, who is not even half smart, can successfully sit on the dragon throne and make her successfully become the Empress Dowager. However, judging from the current situation alone, something is probably happening.
She clenched her fist, and her sharp nails pierced into her palms, almost bleeding beads.
And where she couldn't see, everything she didn't want to see or expected was going on in an orderly manner.
After the bowl of calming the sun soup that Emperor Chengzhen drank was extinguished, he woke up once in the middle of the night. But when he woke up, the medicine Wang Lang had boiled was not given to him directly again. Because another important thing was time to do.
The room was silent, and then the slightly rapid breathing of Emperor Chengzhen sounded heavily, and there was a slow voice, "Eight Treasures...Eight Treasures..."
Eunuch Cao was waiting by his side. When he heard him calling him, he immediately bowed his head and said respectfully: "Emperor."
"water……"
Eunuch Cao immediately brought up the warm ginseng tea on the side and delivered it to his mouth. He fed him half a cup in one go, "Your Majesty, drink it slowly, be careful not to choke."
Emperor Chengzhen only felt that the fire was burning in his throat, so he could not listen to his words. He just drank it hard. It was not easy to feel a little comfortable in his throat, but his head was so dizzy that it felt very uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty, the things you asked the slave to prepare before have been prepared. Look, are you writing now or what?" Eunuch Cao put down the teacup and asked softly.
Emperor Chengzhen's head was dizzy and was almost still half asleep. He heard this and just asked in a daze: "What, what?"
An eunuch Cao's eyes appeared in his eyes, and his voice still said respectfully: "Have you forgotten the edict of passing the throne?"
