Duan Wang and Empress Dowager?! Everyone was surprised when they heard the words. Ye Gucheng, Southeast Wang Shizi and others, who felt that the overall situation had been decided, were even more flustered.
Among the two, the empress dowager was a little better. Although her mother admired the world, she was just a woman. She has the right to intervene in certain political affairs, but the root of the power still lies in the late emperor. That is, although she was raised from childhood to adulthood, she was not born by herself, but was better than her own son.
Now her son, who is more like her own son, is dead. Even if she wants to stir up any storm, someone should listen to her.
But Duan Wang is different. You should know that this prince is the brother of the emperor today, and he was a strong contender for the throne in those days. If the late emperor did not hold the position of Changdi, the winner would still be unknown.
Therefore, when people heard Xie Feihong talking about inviting the king, Ye Gucheng and others were flustered, and those who were ready to make their own statements fell into indifference.
"Brother! Lone king... come a little late!" Duan Wang choked up as soon as he appeared in front of everyone. He looked like he had a very deep relationship with the late emperor.
This is a movie star!
Everyone looked at Duan Wang, who was tearing his heart and lungs and crying bitterly.
Who in the world today doesn't know that the deceased today's sage wants to kill the man in front of him most. Without looking at his accession to the throne today, he directly abdicates all the military power in the hands of Duan Wang, and then rises up and falls down, and directly seals a fief near the capital for the other party. In name, it is just a fief, but in fact, it is house arrest.
It has been three years!
Even today, if Xie Feihong hadn't mentioned it, many people would have forgotten that there is still such a brother who used to be good at fighting.
Of course, in fact, the late emperor did not want to kill Duan Wang once and for all, completely and physically.
However, Duan Wang has always had prestige in the army. Once the late emperor attacks him, it is likely to cause unrest in the army.
Moreover, both Duan Wang's mother and his biological mother, Empress Wende, died early, so they were both raised by the childless empress dowager. Even for filial piety, the deceased should think carefully today.
Of course, the most important thing is that the late people seem to have power over the world today, but there are still several vassals holding heavy power and troops in China, and these vassals are all controlled by the royal family. Just like the Southeast King, the father of the Southeast King's son. Once the target king is attacked, it is hard to guarantee that others will not be confused.
So the late today intends to wait for things to completely cool down until the world can no longer remember the existence of such a lord, and then slowly concoct each other.
However, he didn't expect to die on the top of the Forbidden City before he could attack the king.
"Mother, what's the matter with you? Mother, don't worry!" Duan Wang is a fake grief, or even though he has sorrow, he is still within control. But today's empress dowager is really sad. After all, she and the deceased today are not born but better than born.
So after seeing the body of the current emperor, he could no longer restrain his grief and fainted directly.
Maybe something is still on my mind, or maybe Duan Wang pinched people. So after a while, the empress dowager came back to her senses and stared at Ye Gucheng, who stood proudly in the middle of the field, and Wang Shizi, who looked frightened.
The empress dowager was afraid that it would be hard to explain after the disclosure of Duan Wang's private visit to Beijing to find her, even if Duan Wang reported that someone was going to assassinate the emperor.
And to be honest, when Duan Wang reported, the empress dowager was skeptical. After all, under the protection of many internal experts, stabbing the king and killing the king seemed strange. However, she still couldn't help the son who was growing up and begged hard, so she hurried to the emperor's palace to hide under his arrangement.
As the queen mother arrived, the emperor's situation was basically settled, so she didn't show up. She planned to go back to the palace after watching the emperor completely safe in the hidden place. After all, she also knew that the emperor really didn't want to see Duan Wang.
But what she did not expect was that the reversal of the victory and defeat would be so sudden. The emperor who just had the chance to win fell into a pool of blood in the blink of an eye, leaving her unable to respond!
The empress dowager took a red look at the body of the emperor, which has corroded most of the body. She gnashed her teeth at Ye Gucheng and others and said, "What a group of disorderly officials and thieves! What a southeast prince! What a Ye Gucheng!!!"
"Mother, take care of yourself," said Duan Wang, looking at the signs of fainting of the empress dowager.
"Take care of yourself?!" The empress dowager looked at the son beside her with red eyes and said fiercely: "You An, I don't care whether this matter has anything to do with you or not, I just want one thing, that is, to break up all these disorderly subjects and bandits who kill the monarch and conspire against me! In order to pay tribute to the spirit of my dying emperor! Understand!"
The empress dowager is not an easy person to stand out in such a dangerous place as the harem and finally become the mother of a country. How could she fail to see that her other son might also play a bad role in it.
But based on her understanding of her son, I'm afraid that even if he did something in it, he would have wiped the end of his hand clean. Second, she has lost one son, and naturally does not want to lose another son, although neither of them is her own.
"Don't worry, Mother Queen," Duan Wang Su said, "the fate of these disorderly officials and thieves has been doomed when they decided to do something wrong!"
After saying that, Duan Wang entrusted the empress dowager to the eunuch bodyguard leader on the side, and then walked through the surrounding of a large number of bodyguards, came to Xie Feihong's side, and said to a large number of bodyguards, "You must all know him, so I won't say anything more. Here's a chance for you to take down these ruffians. If you protect the unfavorable things, the king can take it easy and spare your life! "
According to the common people's idea, I'm afraid that I will make a heavy promise to a group of internal guards to ensure that these effective forces will not turn against each other. But Duan Wang didn't do that, but the people didn't show any surprise, because that was Duan Wang!
And what do you say? Although Duan Wang didn't promise to pay more money than Southeast Wang Shizi, his promise was more credible than Southeast Wang Shizi. In addition, what just Ye Gucheng did was really unpopular, so everyone involuntarily turned to Duan Wang's direction.
The performance of the people also quickly showed on their faces, which made the southeast prince of Wang couldn't help but look in the direction of his master Ye Gucheng. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning was very clear, that is, he hoped Ye Gucheng could make another move and cut the current variable into his hands again!
Looking at the pleading eyes of Southeast Wang Shizi, Ye Gucheng couldn't help smiling bitterly. He didn't want to kill each other, but from the moment Duan Wang appeared, Xie Feihong, the young leader of the Shenjian Mountain Manor, who placed one hand on the handle of the sword, had his qi locked on him all the time.
Ye Gucheng believes that as long as he dares to make a move, he will be greeted by a knife that seems to cut everything off!
To tell the truth, even today, Ye Gucheng has little confidence in Xie Feihong's knife!
