"Meet the Queen Mother......"

Guo Weijing was just about to kneel down in his clothes, but Empress Dowager Zeng had already rushed in front of him in a few steps, and said anxiously: "Guo Gebu, I heard that the emperor is now in Huguang?" ”

Guo Weijing took half a step back and said, "Back to the Queen Mother, it's true." He Tengjiao coerced the Son of Heaven into Chu, and issued a false edict to proclaim himself the first assistant, the Taishi, and the pillar of the country, and also called His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King the 'Eight Deadly Sins', and gathered Huguang soldiers and horses...... He wants to fight against the imperial court with a rebel army. ”

Empress Dowager Zeng's face turned pale for a moment, and she hurriedly asked, "Then, how should the court deal with it?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King has transferred nearly 60,000 troops from four roads to surround Huguang, Luo Ming is on the north bank of Wuchang Town, and nearly 10,000 Cantonese troops are ready to listen to the tune." The imperial court's deployment of troops in Huguang is not a top secret, Guo Weijing just went to the military department before he came, "Three days ago, His Royal Highness ordered the loyal battalion to go to Yuezhou. The Sichuan, Jiangxi, and Gui men and horses also began to prepare for war two months ago, and now they can pull out the camp at any time.

"There is no large Chu army to defend the line from Jingzhou to Chengtianfu, and it is estimated that at most half a month, the Sichuan army will arrive in Wuchang and join the Jiangxi army to fight a decisive battle with He Tengjiao."

When Empress Dowager Zeng heard this, her heart shrank and staggered, Bai Daqi hurriedly stepped forward to support her, so she barely sat on the ground.

She knew very well that more than 100,000 troops on both sides would fight and fight, and at that time, the swords and arrows would be eyeless, the jade would be burned, and Yuan'er would probably be injured by the war. Even if He Tengjiao's war is unfavorable, he will use the emperor to threaten Lin Mi on the front line, just one shot, her source ......

She screamed loudly, shaking her head desperately and not daring to think about it any more. After a moment of relief, she grabbed Guo Weijing, "No, you can't fight!" Where's Lin Mi? I want to see him, I want to see him! ”

Guo Weijing was puzzled: "The Queen Mother, the Auxiliary Political King, he has personally gone to Zhenjiang to arrange the Yangtze River defense line......"

"That, that summons the zodiac Zhou, summons Lu Zhenfei to come, quick!" Apparently she had done her wrong, shouting, "Let them come up and stop at once!" ”

An hour later, Bai Daqi replied with an embarrassed expression, "Queen Mother, Huang Ge Lao and Lu Ge Lao have left the city for official business, and I don't know when they will be able to return." ”

It is a matter of the safety of Daming Sheji, Huang Daozhou and others yesterday saw Zhu Linmiao's determination to pacify the chaos in Huguang, and they knew that they had opened their bows and had no turning back. At this time, when they heard that the Queen Mother had summoned them, they immediately thought of what was going on, so they all found excuses to stay away.

That night, the Empress Dowager Zeng tossed and turned, and when she closed her eyes slightly, there would be a tragic picture of her son being killed in her mind: or the imperial court broke through Wuchang, and Yuan'er was killed by a knife and gun in the chaos; or the army besieges the city, and the cannonballs whistle and fall into the room where the source lives; Or the cannon caused a fire in the city of Wuchang, and the raging flames devoured the son......

"No—"

She screamed and sat up, only to feel a sharp pain in her heart, and her hoarse voice kept muttering, "Yuan'er can't be fine, must not ...... I want Yuan'er to come back safely......"

She said that tears had burst into her waters, "I don't want anything, as long as Yuan'er is safe, as long as he is safe......"

Outside the door, Bai Daqi hurriedly entered the house, helped her stroke her back, and said repeatedly: "Don't worry, the Queen Mother will be fine, and she will be back soon." ”

Empress Dowager Zeng suddenly got up in her clothes, and was about to walk outside the hall, while saying anxiously: "Bai Daqi, prepare the car, go to Zhenjiang!" I'm looking for Lin Mi! ”

She looked back, but saw that the eunuch was standing still and didn't move, and couldn't help frowning: "What are you doing in a daze?" ”

Bai Daqi took a few steps to close the door of the house, turned around in her surprised gaze, and said, "Queen Mother, forgive the slave maid for being blunt, you are going to find His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King, I'm afraid it's useless." ”

"Why ......"

Bai Daqi bowed even lower and looked at his toes, "Queen Mother, do you remember how Yingzong was after the civil engineering disaster?" ”

Zeng Hui was stunned, she naturally knew that during the orthodox years, Yingzong Zhu Qizhen was defeated in Tumubao and was captured by the Mongols first, which is known as the Tumubao Change.

Seeing that she was silent, Bai Daqi continued: "As the slave and maid saw, the current situation is so similar to that time! The practice of the Ming Dynasty is to focus on the community and the king as the light. At that time, with the prestige of Yingzong, the whole Manchu Dynasty did not bow their heads to this matter, and immediately changed him to the emperor, and welcomed Daizong to the throne.

"If today's son falls into the hands of He Tengjiao, and the saint has no foundation in the court, it is impossible for the court to submit to the rebels for the safety of the saint. Today, you summoned Huang Ge Lao and others but didn't see them, which is the attitude of the courtiers. ”

Empress Dowager Zeng was immediately silent, slowly retreating into the house as if she had lost her soul, and sat weakly on the chair.

After a while, she wiped away the tears on her face and lamented, "More than 100,000 people are fighting, and Yuan'er is at the core of the confrontation between the two armies, and it is like nine deaths......"

Bai Daqi continued in a deep voice: "Why not stop here! The slave heard that Huguang also colluded with Jianyu this time, if He Tengjiao led the Qing army into Chu, the saint would be like a sheep into the tiger's mouth. Or the thief is defeated, and it is not impossible to kill the king to vent his anger in a frenzy. ”

"No, no......" Zeng Hui stared at the eunuch in horror, trembling, "What should I do?" How can I save my source......"

Bai Daqi frowned, recalled in his heart what Yang Tinglin said to him outside Longfu Gate in the afternoon, and finally gritted his teeth hard, knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager Zeng, "Empress Dowager, if you want to be safe and sound now, there is only one way!" ”

"There's a way?" The latter stood up abruptly and said hurriedly, "Tell me quickly, what is the way?!" ”

Bai Daqi took a deep breath and said word by word: "Tell the world, the Son of Heaven abdicates, and the thief will have no more support in his hands, and he will fall!" ”

After he finished speaking, he was already covered with cold sweat, lying on the ground and not daring to move, just waiting for the Queen Mother's thunderous anger to descend.

Unexpectedly, I suddenly heard the Empress Dowager Zeng stroking her palm vigorously, "Yes!" How I didn't think of this verse! There was even a hint of joy in his tone, "If he abdicates, Yuan'er will just be an ordinary clan, what is the use of He Tengjiao holding him hostage?" At that time, I will go to ask Lin Mi, as long as I return Yuan'er, I will pardon Jiao and not die, he has no reason to harm Yuan'er! ”

In fact, when Zhu Linyuan woke up in Xiaoling, she felt that she no longer had any extravagant hopes, and only hoped that she could spend the rest of her life safely with her son, and that no imperial power or wealth would be important. She even thought about whether it was her son's shallow life, otherwise why would she suffer a disaster every time she was in the imperial position.

At this time, when she heard the eunuch say that she could exchange the throne for peace, she almost didn't think about it and felt that it was feasible, sandwiched on the cusp of this storm, what good is it to be the emperor of Laoshzi? If Yuan'er can return safely this time, he will take him to find a secluded place to live in seclusion, just to live in peace and be satisfied.

She then helped Bai Daqi up, "Why didn't you say such a good policy earlier, as long as you can save Yuan'er, you can do anything!" ”

Bai Daqi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said: "If the Queen Mother agrees to this law, she should act as soon as possible." Otherwise, once the army enters Chu and the two sides fight, even if He Tengjiao wants to take a step back, he is afraid that it will be difficult to control the situation. ”

"Yes, without further ado!" Zeng Hui's eyes had a brilliance, and he ordered, "Summoning Huang Dao Zhou...... By the way, he's avoiding me. Come on, change clothes, I'll go to Zhou's mansion to find him. ”
