Under the Empress Dowager, all members will be King

Chapter 76

The people in the inn each have their own thoughts, Wei Junzhai is often invisible, Zhao Qian, Sun Li and four Shuyi hide in the room and dare not show their heads, Yifei leans on the railing, with sad eyes.

The noble concubine accompanied the queen back to the palace to recover from her injuries, and the second concubine Jinrou was imprisoned in the palace. It was supposed to be the time for her to shine, but concubine Xiang followed.

Concubine Xiang coaxed the emperor around, she couldn't even see the emperor, but Master Xunhe guarded her like a thief, she was tied up, and there was nothing she could do.

Along the way, the number of people accompanying him continued to decrease, and the third prince's illness became more serious. The emperor took the initiative to confide in the queen mother.

"My mother, the mountain is high and the road is far away, and the third brother is seriously ill, so it is not suitable to move around."

"Qian'er's illness doesn't matter. The national teacher has made a divination. If everything goes wrong, just wait until you go to Wuliang Mountain."

The empress dowager was stubborn, the late emperor passed away early, she raised the two young sons alone, and helped the eldest son ascend the throne step by step. The empress dowager was wise, courageous and intelligent when she was young.

The queen mother in her old age seemed to have changed completely, becoming stubborn, domineering, and short-sighted.

Aunt Fang reached out and took away the hand stove with residual heat, and naturally replaced it with a novice stove that had just replaced the charcoal fire.

"It's snowy and cold, the queen mother is careful."

"Ai's family is full of rotten bones. If you die sooner or later, you will die anyway. Qian'er is still young, and he has a great youth."

"It's all due to that crazy Taoist Wei Junzhai, who delayed Qian'er's condition by talking nonsense."

Aunt Fang straightened her back and pricked up her ears. If the queen mother is angry, someone will inevitably lose her life. She must listen carefully, write down the words of the queen mother verbatim, and then relay them to the people below.

"Wei Junzhai is incompetent, he was resigned from the post of national teacher, and hit [-] big boards."

Aunt Fang stepped back and went out to spread the word. The eunuchs ran to Wei Junzhai's residence to find someone, but it was empty and found no one.

The leading eunuch touched the quilt, and the quilt was still warm, and hurriedly ordered people to search around. After some searching, they found Wei Junzhai from the depths of the bamboo forest.

Wei Junzhai was boarded and wrapped in a layer of broken straw mat. Two eunuchs carried him, threw the straw mat hard and rolled down the hillside.

On the vast white ground, there was a bright red bloodstain.

There are many wolves in the mountains, and the blood on Wei Junzhai's body attracted the wolves.

Seeing that Wei Junzhai was surrounded by wolves, the two eunuchs expected that he would not survive, so they went back to receive the reward.

Aunt Fang asked, "How did people deal with it?"

"Give it to the wolf."

"really?"

"It's true."

Aunt Fang told the Queen Mother truthfully, and the Queen Mother frowned after listening.

"Let's set the meal."

The queen mother was in a good mood and had a good appetite, so she ate half a bowl of rice.

Aunt Fang brought the tonic soup, and the Empress Dowager drank it in small sips.

After dinner, Aunt Fang talked with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother ordered Aunt Fang to take out the wooden box under the pillow, which contained two jade pendants.

The jade pendant is warm to the touch, and the carving is meticulous. It is two vivid red carps. The two jade pendants together form a round shape, and the jade pendant is tied with a necklace.

Aunt Fang didn't know the double carp jade pendant, so the queen mother asked her to send it to the emperor, and she followed the order.

After delivering the things, she came to answer the Queen Mother.

"Queen, the emperor likes your reward very much, and wears it close to your body."

"Aijia just wants him to wear it next to his body."

The double carp jade pendant was divided into two parts, one was tied around the emperor's waist, and the other was hung around the third prince's neck.

Gu Yinwei couldn't see anything strange about the double carp jade pendant, but instinctively sensed that the jade pendant was ominous. She persuaded the emperor not to wear it next to his body all day, but the emperor refused her with the reason of "given by the elders, not given."

Except for bathing every day, the jade pendant is always worn on him.

Gu Yinwei had been on guard for many days, but he didn't see any clues, so he stopped persuading him.

Seven days later, the heavy snow finally stopped, and the convoy set off again. The third prince's condition finally improved, and he lifted the curtain of the car to wave.

"Brother Huang, do you dare to come for a horse race?"

"Why don't you dare." The emperor jumped out of the carriage and chose a jujube horse.

Two fine horses ran one after the other, followed by a large group of guards.

The accompanying concubines lifted the curtains of the cars to look out, and Aunt Fang also lifted the curtains. Outside was a happy scene of brothers and sisters respecting each other. The happier they were, the more anxious the Empress Dowager was.

Aunt Fang noticed the empress dowager's displeasure, and slowly lowered the curtain.

The queen mother supported her head with her hands, her eyes were sad.

The emperor and the third prince who raced horses didn't know the empress dowager's sorrow, so they waved their long whips and ran forward.

"Brother Huang, you have to run faster, or I will catch up with you."

"Your brother, just chase after me, I will never lose to you."

The two chased after each other, and the guards behind them were far behind.

After running for about twenty or thirty miles, the winner was finally decided, and the winner was the third prince.

The emperor got off his horse and supported the tree trunk to breathe. He could run faster just now, but there seemed to be a fire burning in his chest. He felt that all the strength in his body was burned out, so he had to stop and rest.

"Brother Huang, don't let me intentionally let me race horses with you. I have never won. What's wrong with you today? Did you not have a good rest?"

"It's okay, I'll be fine after a while."

"It's good that the emperor is fine."

"Wuliang Mountain is not far from here, about 200 miles away. Once you reach the mountain, your illness will be cured."

"Thank you, Brother Huang, for your good words."

The two waited for a while, and the guards chased after him. After sniffing Fugui's nose, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

"Your Majesty, get on your horse, the Third Prince, there are wolves nearby."

The emperor got on his horse in a hurry, and the third prince couldn't sit still and rolled off the horse.

The green-backed mountain wolf opened its mouth, its mouth full of fangs, and it was about to bite Zhu Qian's arm.

The emperor drew out his long sword to protect him, "Get on your horse, Ah Qian."

Zhu Qian scrambled and pulled out his sword, holding the sword in both hands, and the two stood back to back.

The pack of wolves attacked the two of them, and Fu Gui shot an arrow at the head wolf. The head wolf was hit by an arrow in the neck and fell into a pool of blood. Instead of dispersing, the pack of wolves launched a more ferocious attack.

The emperor swung dozens of swords in a row, his swordsmanship opened and closed, stabbing, slashing, cutting, hitting, and chopping.

Zhu Qian's swordsmanship is not a move, and his output is not based on the sword, but on the voice.

The guards cooperated with the emperor to attack the wolves, and Zhu Qian raised his sword and squealed.

The guards are well-trained, and they form a small team of three, cutting in from the edge of the wolf pack. The wolves in the mountains have sharp teeth, brave and foolish, and use brute force to bite.

The emperor intentionally revealed a flaw, and the mountain wolf opened its mouth and bit it. What it bit was not Fugui's neck, but a scabbard. The emperor held the sword in his right hand and dropped it high.

A bloody wolf's head was cut off with a sword, more and more guards, and the wolves gradually dispersed.

Zhu Qian had lingering fears, thanks to the timely rescue by the emperor, otherwise he must have been injured.

The queen mother called Zhu Qian to get into the car, and Zhu Qian happily explained the emperor's feat.

"Hand up the sword and drop it, with a sword and a wolf's head. The queen mother and the emperor's brother's swordsmanship are worthy of being taught by the father himself. They really have the demeanor of a master."

"Your father also taught you swordsmanship, why don't you have the demeanor of a master?"

"My son has failed in swordsmanship, in reading, in being an official, in business, in his life. He is useless. He is a piece of rotten wood that cannot be carved."

"Brother Huang is different. He is superb in swordsmanship and wisdom. He is a rare virtuous master. At the same time, he also loves his son, a good-for-nothing younger brother."

"You worship your emperor brother so much."

"Of course, Brother Huang is a great hero. I applaud and send flowers to Brother Huang."

"You never thought of being a hero."

"My son doesn't have that ability. My son just wants to be a good brother."

The words of the third prince were like a huge rock, smashing into the empress dowager's heart lake, causing layers of water splashes, and the empress dowager's heart fluttered.

　It will be on the shelves on the 28th, I hope everyone will support it, thank you
