Chapter 43 Who is playing chess

Dugu was about to persuade Yang Ying with a soft voice, but Yuan Zhou had already brought Changsun Sheng to push the door in: "Madam, there is news, and you will be safe and sound."

Dugu's spirit was greatly boosted: "The news is accurate?"

Changsun Sheng hurriedly came out from behind: "Madam, I personally helped Sui Gong out of the palace. Now Sui Gong is still outside the palace. He wants me to tell the lady first and ask her to come to the palace to plead with the emperor as soon as possible, otherwise the queen may have something to do."

Dugu and Changsun Sheng met several times, and her husband praised Changsun Sheng, so he had a deep impression of Changsun Sheng. He recognized him all at once, but did not believe him immediately. Instead, he looked at Changsun Sheng with a questioning look. Changsun Sheng hurriedly took out Yang Jian's jade pendant, and Dugu took over the jade pendant without any doubt: "Okay, I'll leave immediately."

Dugu left the hall and explained the situation. Five or six hundred soldiers gathered in the courtyard quickly took off their armor and weapons, and dispersed from the back door. There was no louder sound in the middle. These people were old troops brought out by Yang Jian for decades of fighting. They usually hid near the Duke's Mansion of Suiguo. Once summoned, they could form an army immediately. Naturally, they were all elite.

After doing this, Dugu changed into a dress of a civilian woman. Changsun Sheng drove the carriage to the palace in person. He ran wildly along the way. When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Yang Jian had left. Dugu did not care about finding Yang Jian, and quickly informed the guards of the imperial guards to see Emperor Tianyuan.

An imperial guard left in a hurry, but soon came back and said to Dugu: "Madam, the Heavenly Lord is busy."

Dugu was anxious: "The Heavenly Lord doesn't want to meet."

"yes."

"Are discussing national affairs?"

Dugu's family was so angry that they asked this question. Everyone knew that the emperor hated national affairs the most.

The guards were a little embarrassed. In fact, the emperor was playing chess with Zheng Yi. The guards did not report on Dugu’s affairs at all, but it was hard to say it outright.

Changsun Sheng took a step forward: "How about you please let me pass it again?"

The guard shook his support head: "Changsun Lang, it's not that I don't want to inform you. The queen is still kneeling. The Heavenly Lord still has no intention of forgiveness. You also know the Heavenly Lord's temper. If you go to inform you now, you may be backfiring."

Changsun Sheng understood that what the Imperial Guard said was indeed true, and hesitated without realizing it. The Imperial Guard continued: "Ji Wang Xian, Yuwen Xiaobo, Yuwen Shenju, Wang Gui and others all refuted the Heavenly Lord speechless, but they were all dead. The Queen was also reasoning with the Heavenly Lord, which caused such a disaster. Although the Duke of Sui was extremely thrilling just now, everything went with the Heavenly Lord, and in the end it was still safe. If the wife wanted to save the Queen, she must not report it forcibly, let alone reason with the Heavenly Lord."

Dugu looked at the guard in confusion: "How can you save the queen?"

The guard pointed to the bluestone slab outside: "Madam can kneel down for a long time, which is better than pleading. If she fails for one day, she will be more arrogant and crying thousands of times. Besides, the lady is full of grievances now, and she is even more dangerous when she sees the Heavenly Lord.

After hearing the guards' right, Dugu Jialuo nodded and knelt on the bluestone slab without saying a word. It was the end of the fourth month of the lunar calendar. The sun was as hot as fire. The bluestone slab had already been steaming hot. Dugu only knelt for less than a cup of tea. He was already sweating profusely and was soaked all over. It was just now that it was Si (9 o'clock) that it was so difficult to survive noon.

I just remembered the major events I discussed with my husband a few days ago. No matter how hard it is, I have to endure it. If the queen is deposed, even if the Duke's Mansion is preserved, she will have to be slaughtered in the future. She must not let her father's tragedy fall to her husband again.

Today, the Duke of Shu Kingdom's Mansion is much more lively than before. From time to time, people come in and out. Yuchi Yun and Yuchi Shun are also anxious like ants in hot trouble. They only received the news when Yang Jian entered the palace. The emperor suddenly became furious and wanted to kill the Empress Tianyuan. At the same time, Duke Sui was also admitted to the palace by an imperial edict. The two were immediately overjoyed and knew that it must be Yuchi Fanchi had taken action. The wind beside the pillow was indeed extraordinary. In just a few days, the Duke of Sui, who was powerful in the court, was about to disappear.

Once Yang Jian was eliminated, no one could compete with the Duke of Shu's Mansion. At that time, King Zhao had no value for use. It was not impossible for the Yuchi family to replace the Yuwen family.

"Report." A family general rushed over from outside.

"How is it?" The two brothers stood up from the chair at the same time and asked, showing their urgency.

But the answers of the family generals disappointed them: "Sui Guogong came out safely from the palace."

Yuchi Shun waved his hand and signaled the general to retreat, sighing: "Pu Liuru Jian is really lucky, and he will not fail."

"Slow." Yuchi Yun called the generals of his family: "How is the Grand Queen of Tianyuan?"

"Go back to the master, he is still kneeling in the central palace, and the Heavenly Lord has not forgiven her."

The two of them were immediately excited: "Go down and ask someone to stare at the palace, and report every move quickly."

"yes."

After the generals left, the two sat down at the same time and waited patiently.

"Reported, I followed Mrs. Dugu from the Duke's Mansion to the palace and asked to see the Heavenly Lord. Without permission, I am now kneeling on the bluestone slab outside.

"What about Pu Liurujian."

"Pulurujian disappeared after he came out of the palace."

Yuchi Yun waved his hand and asked the family general who had reported the news to go down, and sighed: "Puliurujian's trick is great. He doesn't plead for mercy, but let his wife plead for mercy. The emperor's relationship is prone to impulsiveness and is likely to be pardoned. If he missed this opportunity, Chier would be willing to cooperate in the future, and it would be difficult to take action."

Indeed, the key to this success was to catch the Duke Sui Guo’s Mansion off guard. When Yang Jian had an interview, it would be difficult to attack again. Moreover, with Yang Jian’s power, if the cause of this incident was found, Yang Jian might not have used Empress Tianyuan to counterattack the Yuchi family.

"Brother, what should I do? This time I finally convinced Chi'er that the Empress Tianyuan is the leader of the fifth queen and accompanied the emperor to walk all the way from the prince. I am afraid that even if Chi'er goes all out in the future, she will not be the opponent of the Empress Tianyuan." Yuchi Shun said worriedly.

Yang Lihua's gentle temperament and dislikes fighting does not mean that she will let others ride on her head and not fight back. Otherwise, she, the Tianyuan Queen, would be unstable, and it was her personality that was also respected by several other queens. In the future, the two sides would break up, and Yuchi Fanchi would most likely fight against four.

Yuchi Yun shook his head: "With Chi'er's intelligence, there may not be any handle, but Pu Liurujian doesn't need any evidence, just doubt it."

Yuchi Shun was even more anxious, but he couldn't think of any good way to turn the situation around. The longer the delay was, the more likely Emperor Tianyuan would be to pardon the Queen.

"I have it." Yuchi Yun suddenly slapped the table, which scared Yuchi Shun.

"What's the way brother?"

"Send someone to contact all court officials immediately and ask them to go outside the palace to ask the Heavenly Lord to pardon the Great Empress Tianyuan."

Yuchi Shun was puzzled at first, but he knew that his brother could not help Yang Jian. He frowned and thought for a while before he figured out the joints: "It's called mercy, but it's actually a death."

With the nature of Emperor Tianyuan, it would be fine if he did not plead. Seeing a large-scale courtier pleading for Empress Tianyuan, Empress Tianyuan could not escape even if she was innocent. You Pu Liurujian could avoid yourself, but could you avoid other ministers pleading?

The sun in the sky became more and more poisonous. In the blink of an eye, Dugu had been kneeling in the scorching sun for an hour. Her lips were dry and her body was shaking. Yang Jian hid not far from the palace and watched, his heart was like a knife. He secretly swears, Dugu Jialuo, you have been a noble girl since you were young. If you weren't for me, why would you suffer such pain? If you succeed in your great cause in the future, Luo Ting will never let you down in your life.

Changsun Sheng was so hot in the shade that he felt uncomfortable. He looked up at the sun rising in the sky, sighed, and hurriedly brought a bowl of water to Dugu. Dugu took it, drank it in one go, and continued to kneel down.

It was noon, and Zheng Yi finally finished playing chess with Emperor Tianyuan. He shook a mud-gold fan and walked out of the palace slowly, as if he had disappeared from the kneeling Dugu family. Obviously, he had known about this for a long time.

Changsun Sheng asked with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, what's the outcome in the morning?"

Zheng Yi sighed: "The Heavenly Lord seems to be uneasy. I won two games in a row. Now he has changed his clothes. After a while, I will fight against the Heavenly Lord."

Changsun Sheng was shocked. The emperor lost two games in a row, and he was afraid that he was in a bad mood, and the situation was getting worse and worse.

"Sir, are you going to play chess with Tianzun? Are you going to bet on winning or losing? Or are you going to be happy with Tianzun?"

Zheng Yi was stunned: "Of course I am happy with the Heavenly Lord." He suddenly reacted and suddenly his eyes lit up: "People say that Changsun Lang is not many talented people, but it is true." After that, he turned around and entered the palace.

A group of ministers ran towards the palace in the distance. Yang Jian was shocked to see it and quickly jumped out to stop the ministers: "What are you doing?"

Yang Su led the crowd out: "After the Duke of the Kingdom, we received the news that the Empress Tianyuan was going to be executed by the emperor for no reason. We came to plead with the emperor."

The officials behind said together: "Yes, we came here to plead for the queen."

An official said: "Suigong, you are here too, and you just happened to lead everyone to knock on the palace together."

Yang Jian complained secretly and bowed quickly: "I thank you all for your kindness. But if you think about Empress Tianyuan, please come back."

One person said unhappily: "If you have any mistakes, I will advise you. Although the Empress Tianyuan is the daughter of the prince, it is related to the stability of the Great Zhou country, and we are safe and unsuccessful."

Yang Jian suddenly felt unspeakable. These court officials were very enthusiastic and could not scold him. Yuan Zhou, behind Yang Jian, had heard Yang Jian talk about the reason why he did not save his daughter. He could see more clearly than these court officials. He stood up and shouted to the ministers: "Who did you invite him? This is a plan to harm the queen, why don't you retreat quickly."

The ministers immediately looked at each other. They were suddenly told that the emperor wanted to kill the Empress Tianyuan and let everyone rescue them together. Otherwise, it would be too late. Everyone was very anxious and rushed over before they could think about it. On the way, they met many colleagues, Su Xing entered the palace together. At this time, when he heard Yuan Zhou say this, someone had already reacted. This matter was indeed extremely strange.

Yang Jian hurriedly said, "Everyone, Empress Tianyuan is my daughter. If I can save her, how can I stop her? Please go back. Tianzun is just a joke with the queen. As long as the anger is gone, it will be fine."

Since Yang Jian said so transparently, if he didn't leave, he would be openly against him. Everyone had to return one after another, and they scattered like birds and beasts.

In the emperor's harem, Yang Lihua still knelt there motionless. Her legs were already numb, and even her heart became numb. The couple's love for several years was just a few words. The emperor said he turned against him but turned against him, but he didn't know that her mother was kneeling under the scorching sun for her sake.

In a hall between the mother and daughter kneeling, Emperor Tianyuan still fought with Zheng Yi in a difficult situation. The old eunuch standing beside him looked inward and murmured: "This weather is burnt, but someone is afraid of death. He kneels on the bluestone slab and exposes the sun. It's been sunbathing for several hours. It's really strange."

The situation on Emperor Tianyuan's chessboard was still not good. One of his big dragons rushed left and right, with only one eye. He was stunned when he heard this: "What did you say?"

The old eunuch bowed and said, "I didn't say anything, I'm talking nonsense, saying that a woman was exposing the sun outside the palace."

"who."

"The old slave is already dazzled. He only sees that he seems to be a civilian woman, probably a lunatic."

The emperor was not a fool, so he naturally guessed who it was. His mind was suddenly disordered and he made a random son. When he saw it clearly, he complained secretly. If Zheng Yi had to take another move on the periphery of this son, his big dragon would be completely helpless.

Zheng Yi said happily: "Take the favor, let the favor! If the chess minister can't win this game, it's God's will!" After that, his hand shook and the chess piece fell down, just blocking his eyes.

Emperor Tianyuan laughed: "There is no regrets to make a move." He quickly made a spell and killed all Zheng Yi's pieces, saving his big dragon. Once in and out, Emperor Tianyuan had already won this game of chess.

Zheng Yi looked full of regret: "How could this be? No, I didn't fall there."

Emperor Tianyuan was proud: "I was not playing there just now, and I didn't regret chess. It's all you can blame yourself. Who wants your hands to shake?"

"God's will, God's will, I didn't expect that as soon as I finished speaking, I did this. I dare not talk nonsense anymore in the future." Zheng Yi seemed extremely upset.
