Chapter 39: Returning the Rain to the Sunny Advice (5)
[Sorry, one step slower, this is the third update.] γ
Night envelops Miyagi.
It was dark inside and out, with only a little fire, flashing in the palace.
A string of lights crossed the darkness in front of him, from the direction of Baoci Palace, and was passing towards the apse of Funing Palace.
Kunning Palace is located in the northernmost part of the palace city, that is, behind the most Lu.
To the south is the Funing Hall. It is far away from the position of the three Su Naozaifu, and the Baoci Palace is directly west of the Funing Palace, if you walk from the front, you can't see it at all in the direction of the Kunning Palace. It was deliberately walked behind the Funing Palace. Understand to the queen that it is for herself.
The night at the end of June was still hot. It's just that the wind blows through the towering temple, and the original dryness becomes cold and even gloomy. It's like walking into the Daqing Hall for the first time, and I can't forget the oncoming cold.
Xiang Empress wrapped her arms around her arms.
Under the thin gown, the most noble woman in the Great Song Dynasty was trembling in the night wind.
Even after the night of the winter solstice, she never faced her aunt head-on.
Every time they meet, the Empress Dowager Gao, who is unsmiling, brings her more than ten years of fear. originally thought it was over, but tonight, Queen Xiang finally understood that that fear was still hidden in her heart.
The husband said that he had harmed him, and although his son was young, he already had prejudices. It is said that three obedience and four virtues, but husbands and sons are unreliable, who do they have to rely on?
Empress Xiang watched as the streamer of light merged into the palace in front of her, unhindered.
"Song Yongchen hasn't come back yet?" She asked in a panic.
The result was obvious, no one dared to raise her head, and no one could give her a reassuring answer.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Sincere...... Sincere...... Sincere.
The sound from afar, rhythmically sounded. It's like a string of lights in front of me, swaying gently with the pace.
It was the Queen Mother herself walking with a cane, walking from the Baoci Palace to the Funing Palace.
No one expected that the Queen Mother would walk out of the Baoci Palace so quickly, and Ban Zhi, who was sent to 'guard' the Queen Mother, obviously did not play a role in stopping her.
The sound is getting closer.
Every time the end of the crutch hit the floor, Yang Jian's heart would twitch.
It's funny, isn't it?
Yang Jian could feel the gaze of his companion on the other side. The flesh on his face was twitching one by one, and as the Empress Dowager got closer and closer, her cheeks jumped more and more.
He couldn't suppress the horror and fear in his heart at all.
He was promoted by the queen in the Funing Palace, and he was lucky enough to get the queen's green eyes on the night of the winter solstice and climbed the sycamore branch. On weekdays, he is highly respected in the Funing Palace, and he himself has fantasized that in another twenty or thirty years, he will climb to the position of entering the capital.
But he didn't dare to think about it now.
The Empress Dowager came with a fierce momentum, and only the queen could deal with it.
Yang Jian was standing by the door now, but he didn't dare to move half a step to the main door no matter what, he just thought to himself, and his feet didn't obey the call.
To put it mildly, if the Queen Mother pointed at herself and said, 'Really beaten', there would be nowhere to cry out for injustice when it was beaten into meat sauce.
It is impossible for the Emperor Taishang to stop her, as for the Empress Taishang...... Where are you now?
Empress Dowager Gao walked in with a cane, without squinting, and didn't say a word.
Inside and outside the Funing Palace, the palace people, eunuchs, and guards all knelt down in rows, and Yang Jian panicked and fell to the ground.
No one dared to stop half a step.
One foot crossed the threshold in front of Yang Jian's eyes, and his head slammed on the threshold, but he didn't even dare to touch it.
That's the Queen Mother! He defended himself.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The Queen Mother went to Funing Palace? That's really interesting.
Han Gang turned his head to look at Zhang Dian, and there was no trace of startled on his companion's face.
It is worthy of being the master of the ancestral concubine who dared to be the prime minister when he was young, and Cao Cao may be able to do it in a different era and identity.
"Yukun. What do you think? Although Zhang Dian was not frightened, he couldn't help frowning, the timing of Empress Dowager Gao jumping out was really good.
Han Gang shook his head and smiled, Empress Dowager Gao gritted her teeth and endured it for more than half a year, and now she must feel that the clouds are breaking through the moon and the moon is open, and it is time to take revenge.
The reason why the queen was able to suppress the Empress Dowager Gao was because the Empress Dowager Gao made a big mistake on the night of the winter solstice, but more importantly, the emperor has always stood behind her. But now that the emperor wrote down 'the queen harms me', it has spread all over the palace, so if the Empress Dowager Gao wants to move, who can stop it?
"Privy, now is not the time to laugh." Song Yongchen was so anxious that he jumped to his feet. Han Gang's attitude really didn't look like a loyal minister.
Han Gang and Zhang Dian looked at each other and smiled, now they can rest assured.
Many of the chamberlains in the palace have actually been extremely successful in their education since childhood, and the word loyalty is hidden in their hearts, and they are more pious than the scholars outside. It is far from those eunuchs in the Han and Tang dynasties who can abolish the Son of Heaven and preside over the government.
There is a rift between the emperor and the queen, how many of the big mink that can be used in the palace will stand on the side of the queen, the slaughter and the assistants have no bottom, and Song Yongchen can't clear himself, he is also a eunuch promoted by Zhao Ji. Originally, there was no way to confirm whether Song Yongchen would be on the queen's side, but now that I look at it, there are seven or eight points to confirm.
"Empress Taishang is worried too much." Zhang Dian said. It's really inexperienced.
Empress Xiang is not the kind of queen who has too much ambition and talent after all. If it is the Empress Wu who listens to the government in the country, everyone doesn't have to worry, just wait for the mourning of the Empress Dowager. But in that case, there is another layer of worry, don't expect to be able to be an official in peace. It is Zhang Xian Liu of this dynasty, who can still hold down the Empress Dowager Gao steadily.
"It's not a big deal, don't mess with yourself!" Han Gang snorted lightly, letting Song Yongchen calm down a little, "It's late at night, and it's inconvenient for me to get close to Kunning Palace." β
Although Empress Xiang has been able to take charge of the world's political affairs, it does not mean that she can casually summon foreign ministers into the deep palace. Especially in Kunning Palace, it is impossible to let the minister walk in. Before meeting the ministers in the palace, all of them were in the Funing Palace. In this way, it is above board.
Han Gang didn't see the slightest eagerness on his face. casually picked up a chamberlain who was sent to serve the three Zaifu, "Go inside and invite Han Xianggong." β
"Privy." Song Yongchen asked cautiously.
"For what?" Han Gang asked unhurriedly.
"Is it really okay?"
"Could it be that the Queen Mother will rebel?" Zhang Dian snorted coldly. No one dared to speak out more than he did.
The Empress Dowager wrote a blood edict, and then asked the Empress Dowager to cover a fingerprint with blood, and handed it over to someone to take out of the palace with a belt and take it to the loyal courtiers outside.
Well, this is the process that Han Gang can think of. At the level of the women in the palace, the coup d'Γ©tat that was done was at this level. To be honest, the possibility of success is very small, and it really makes a fuss, just in time to open a killing ring. The province is now tepid and depressing.
"What's the fuss?" Han Jiang woke up early, came out of the inner room, saw the battle in front of him, and hurriedly asked, "Zihou, Yukun, what's wrong?" β
Han Gang glanced at Song Yongchen and gestured with his eyes.
Song Yongchen hurriedly said to Han Jiang: "It's the Empress Dowager who suddenly wants to visit the Emperor." β
When Han Jiang heard this, his brows furrowed. The heart is called bad luck, but this happened when he was upright. I didn't expect the Empress Dowager Gao to be so anxious, and as soon as she heard that her son had become the emperor, she hurriedly came over to contact her. Do you want to change the sky?
"Zihou, Yukun, what do you think?" He yelled at the guard Nunu next to the door, "Do you want to mobilize some people?" β
"No!" Han Gang immediately stopped.
"Never!" Zhang Dian also said at the same time.
It is only natural for a mother to visit her son. As long as the imperial court still has three outlines and five constants, it is inconvenient to stop the Empress Dowager Gao, and it is even more difficult to mobilize soldiers and horses. If nothing happens, the word goes, and the three of them will become laughing stock.
However, whether it is the natural explosion of mother and son after they are both fallen people, or they start to want to toss again, this trend cannot rise.
"Please reply to the Empress Taishang, the Son of Heaven is young, going to bed early and getting up early is the way to maintain health. Alarm at night, not suitable for the royal body. Han Gang thought for a while, and then said, "Wang Zhongzheng is also here, let Wang Zhongzheng go to escort the Empress Dowager, and don't think about the rest." It's enough to put Queen Taishang at ease. β
That's it? Song Yongchen wanted to ask, but he didn't dare to ask more. His eyes looked at Han Jiang.
Han Jiang turned around and walked inside, "This side will be handed over to Yukun and Zihou, and the old man will go to sleep." I'm old, and I'm tired. β
"Yukun, can you play chess?" Zhangdun pulled Han Gang.
Secretly laughed to himself, this Han Gang looked gentle and elegant, his personality was sharp, and he was a sloppy person in his bones, and he was not afraid of making things big at all. If there is really trouble, you can punish the crime openly.
"Is the bet still wheat?" Han Gang did not refuse. Immediately have someone go find the board. As long as you take care of the prince, nothing will happen.
Zhao Xu is young, without Han Gang, who dares to guarantee that he will live to adulthood? Zhao Ji is such a lifeline. Son, how dare you toss? On the night of the winter solstice, what was the purpose of arranging personnel back and forth? Unless Zhao Ji is really crazy, he will join forces with Empress Dowager Gao.
But Zhao Ji is not crazy, last night, he was clearly sober. What he can do now and dare to do is at most to stick a few nails in Zhao Xu's heart, hoping that Zhao Xu will be able to take a bite for him after he becomes an adult.
Otherwise, no matter how angry you are, you have to endure it, and you will never follow the Empress Dowager Gao.
helped the Empress Dowager Gao to come to power, do you still want your own son? When the time comes, even one of the inheritors will not arrange one for him.
Does he dare to bet? Han Gang knew that as long as Zhao Ji was still sensible, he would never gamble.
And if Zhao Ji really gambles, he will be really crazy. At that time, when things started here, they didn't have to be so restrained, and they could let go.
"Why don't you go soon?" Han Gang looked back at Song Yongchen, "Tell Empress Taishang earlier, you can still have time to let Wang Zhongzheng give the Empress Dowager a ride." β
