The capital of Zhao Guojing seems to be calm on the surface, but there is chaos underneath.

Those with backgrounds got the news first and have quietly fled with their families in secret. can only evacuate quietly, not daring to make the slightest publicity, at this time Zhao Huanghai Wuji is like a hungry beast, once he raises the butcher knife, he will not care what backers and background you have in the imperial court, and the knife in his hand is the head.

And those ordinary people who don't have timely news, although they don't have enough money in their daily lives, they are still doing the same, and they can't change anything if they really have something, so they still have to continue.

The eunuchs in the entire palace are even more unprecedentedly regular, and the maids and palace maids dare not speak loudly, and they even walk quietly.

The people who passed in front of the emperor in the past two days were inexplicable, and they didn't know what was wrong, so they provoked His Majesty the Emperor to yell and let people drag them down and cut them, and killed more than a dozen one after another. The bystanders were inexplicable, and the people who were killed were also inexplicable, dying in a blur, and somehow made a mistake.

The people up and down the palace were trembling, and even the concubines in the harem were worried all day long.

The reason for the matter is clear to everyone, the major affairs of the soldier country, the war end should not be lightly started, and now it is the end of the war end, and the Yan country should not be easily attacked!

It's clear, but no one dares to mention it again, it's already the emperor's rebellion, and now it's looking for death.

"Your Majesty spares your life, Your Majesty spares your life, Your Majesty spares your life......"

A terrifying cry for mercy faintly came, and the empress dowager Shang Youlan, who was serving tea in the house, suddenly looked up at the door, and then glanced at the queen sitting next to her.

The queen's eyes were full of uneasiness, and she wanted to speak again and again, but the words in her heart were still unspoken after all.

I didn't want to drink the tea anymore, Shang Youlan put down the teacup and asked the queen, "In the past two days, how many are these?"

The queen said uneasily: "After returning to my mother, there should be fifteen or sixteen." ”

"Alas, the emperor was distraught, so many ministers did not listen to the persuasion at the beginning, and they had to insist on going their own way, and he knew why he was in the first place. Shang Youlan sighed.

The queen smiled far-fetchedly, this kind of thing is now the only one who dares to say it in this palace, and other people, including her, dare not say this, and to say this is to accuse His Majesty the Emperor of doing wrong.

As they spoke, the two looked out of the door together, and saw a white-haired old eunuch leading a few little eunuchs holding trays into the garden, and they didn't know what they had sent.

The old eunuch is Zhuge Chi, the chief of the inner palace of Zhao State, although he still has the title of the chief of the inner house, in fact, he is old and has little energy, and the real power is handed over to the junior eunuch, and he only walks around in front of a few main masters.

Shang Youlan seemed to remember something when she saw him, and sighed: "This old thing is old and sluggish, and he has lived enough, and he will do what he should do when the sky falls, and he will always be so unhurried." After that, he shouted loudly: "Old Zhuge , old Zhuge !"

shouted twice, the old eunuch estimated that he was too old to hear it, and a palace maid here immediately ran over to talk in person, only to see the old eunuch staggering slowly.

When he crossed the threshold, he lifted the hem of his clothes, raised his legs with great effort, hunched his back and approached slowly, looked at the person with cloudy old eyes, and then saluted slowly: "The old slave has seen the queen mother, and he has seen the queen mother." ”

Shang Youlan raised her chin outside, "Yelling, what's going on?"

Zhuge said slowly: "It should be a slave who is not long-eyed who made a mistake and made His Majesty unhappy." It's all old slaves who can't discipline them, so please ask the queen mother to condemn them. ”

Shang Youlan: "You old thing, if you don't get punished, I'm afraid that if you are punished, you will die." I said Lao Zhuge , if I'm not mistaken, when the imperial grandfather was in power, you followed the imperial grandfather, right?"

Zhuge Chi bent over, "At that time, the old slave was still a child, and he was appreciated by the old saint, and he grinded ink next to the old saint, and the old slave was taught to read and write by the old saint driver himself." ”

Shang Youlan: "Yes, the palace heard about it, and then the emperor's grandfather asked you to follow your father before he died, and you became the chief eunuch in this palace in the hands of your father, and before his father died, he told the emperor in front of the emperor that the emperor must treat you well." When the emperor passed the throne to His Majesty on his deathbed, it was the palace that saw it with his own eyes, and the emperor repeatedly told His Majesty to keep you by his side. Looking back and thinking about it this way, you have already gone through four dynasties, you are a veteran of the four dynasties who are over 100 years old, and the civil and military forces of this Manchu Dynasty can't find anyone who is older than you. ”

Zhuge Chi: "The Queen Mother praised falsely, the old slave is just a slave, he is already old and confused, and he can't afford to be the patriarch of the Four Dynasties." ”

Shang Youlan shook her head: "This palace is not praising you, but I want to tell you that it is not that Your Majesty does not miss the old feelings, but that you are too old, so you handed over some things to the people below to do, and it is also sympathetic to you, if there is anything wrong with Your Majesty, don't take it to heart." ”

Zhuge bowed for a long time, "The old slave understands. ”

Shang Youlan: "It's good to understand, you also know what the situation is outside, Ming people don't say dark words in front of them, you have served the emperors of the four dynasties of my Zhao State, and you should let you have a good death." Let's go, let's go today, go wherever you want, take advantage of the moving people who can still call this palace now, and let people send you off, leave as soon as possible. ”

Zhuge Chi: "The queen mother's good intentions, the old slave understands it, but the old slave grew up in this palace when he was a child, and he really doesn't want to leave." ”

Shang Youlan: "Old thing, this palace is not hypocritical with you, nor is it testing you, take advantage of the fact that you can go now, you can't leave if it's too late." You can rest assured, others are not allowed to leave without permission, you can, if something happens, you will have your own palace to bear it, and this palace can still afford it. Don't go around saying goodbye, don't alarm anyone, just go, lest the rumors go out and someone will trouble you, after all, you have been in the palace for so many years, go out and find a quiet place to spend the rest of your life incognito. ”

Zhuge Chi shook his head: "Queen Mother, it's not that the old slave is hypocritical, the old slave is confused, he can't walk and can't do it, he is used to the days in the palace, and he can't live when he is old." ”

Shang Youlan was silent, and finally said slowly: "That's it, then it's up to you to decide, this palace can only be said to be benevolent and righteous." He waved his sleeve and motioned to stand down.

"Yes!" Zhuge bowed for a long time, saluted the queen again, and slowly retreated away, and the queen nodded slightly.

The sunset returns, the remnant sun is like blood, and the majestic palace is bathed in dusk.

As night came, I saw the lights in the palace turn on.

In the middle of the night, above the sky, more than a dozen figures fell from the sky.

"Who is it?" shouted loudly, and a group of monks in the palace rose to the sky to intercept him.

In the booming fight, the three of them took the lead in breaking through the interception, deceiving that there was no real master in this palace, and they were not afraid of getting out of difficulties, so they dared to go straight to the brilliant imperial study.

Boom! The rubble was flying, the roof was broken, and the sea in the imperial study was extremely shocked, and before he could react to what was going on, he was grabbed by the neck.

The palace guards and monks rushed to the rescue.

A loud shout came from the imperial study, "Stop me, whoever dares to act recklessly, I will take your emperor's life." Let you outsiders stop immediately!"

Inside the house, the three people who kidnapped the emperor were none other than the masters of the Qiyun Sect who were ordered to come to rob, and the three Supreme Elders of the Qiyun Sect personally led the team.

Let the people outside stop, naturally because the people they brought were attacked.

Who knew that the palace in the palace, who arrived in time, was also the one who took over the real power of Zhuge Chi, the head of the inner house, and he didn't care about the life of the emperor in the imperial study, and gave an order on the spot, "Your Majesty is not inside, kill!"

Whizzing arrows broke through doors and windows and shot in quickly, and the people in the house were taken aback, and quickly hid with the help of obstacles in the house.

The three of them did not expect that the emperor was captured by them in one fell swoop, and the other party dared to move his hand regardless of the emperor's death.

When there was a crackling sound in the house, someone pulled Hai Wuji and said angrily: "Let them stop, otherwise they will kill you!"

Nahai Wuji said in a panic: "I am not Your Majesty, I am Your Majesty's stand-in." ”

Someone immediately touched his face for a while, but did not find any disfigurement, and immediately said angrily: "Nonsense, it is you on the portrait." ”

Nahai Wuji hurriedly said: "I'm really a stand-in, otherwise how could they attack regardless of my life or death." ”

"Since you're fake, where is your real body?"

"I don't know, I really don't know. ”

"Then who knows?"

"How do the villains know this. ”

couldn't ask the truth, so he immediately threw Hai Wuji out of his hand to test, but the people outside showed no mercy and shot this Hai Wuji into a hedgehog on the spot.

At this time, the three of them knew that the object of the hijacking should be fake, and it was indeed a stand-in.

In the roar, the rubble and masonry of the imperial study were blasted and exploded, and the flying pillars were swept all over the place, and the besieging sergeants outside screamed.

The three elders of the Qiyun Sect took advantage of the chaos to kill, and the giant hammer flew and swept wildly, and none of the monks intercepted on the scene were their opponents, and they were killed by the three of them.

The assassin did not come blindly, he had a detailed and careful plan, and he missed Hai Wuji, and rushed to the side of the Empress Dowager, preparing to take Shang Youlan hostage.

But at the moment when the three of them just broke into the palace of the Queen Mother, something strange happened, a gust of wind suddenly rose, blowing out the lights of the entire palace, and the place suddenly fell into darkness, but a lone lamp appeared.

Under the eaves corridor, Zhuge Chi, the chief administrator of the Great Interior, carried a lantern in his hand, hunched over, and walked slowly, followed by two blind men and two blind eunuchs.

Seeing someone, one of the Supreme Elders of the Qiyun Sect immediately flashed away, ready to be arrested and questioned.

The lantern in Zhuge Chi's hand suddenly went out, and the eaves fell into darkness.

The Supreme Elder who had captured the person found that he had missed his grip and missed, and he couldn't move, and he couldn't move even a single inch despite all his cultivation, and found that his neck was grabbed by someone else's hand, and an unimaginable sense of fear surged into his heart.

"This is not the place you should be. Zhuge swallowed slowly, twisted his hand, and broke the other party's neck.

PS: There is something going on these days, and the update may be unstable, so I will kneel down a durian to apologize first.
