A thousand-year-old family that began with the Battle of Makino

Chapter 184 Duke Guangxin, coup!

December

The weather was getting colder and colder, and Queen Bai couldn't even take a step away from the quilt.

At Duke Bai's Mansion, Prime Minister Bai Jun just returned to the mansion, got off the carriage, stepped onto the steps, and crossed the threshold. Just as one foot stepped over the threshold and the other foot was still outside the door, Bai Jun was stunned, and then his body stopped. Trembling under control. Two lines of clear tears flowed down his cheeks, and he closed his lips tightly to prevent himself from making a sound.

The family leader asked: "Prime Minister, what's wrong?"

Bai Jun took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice: "It's okay!" He walked towards the study, but his steps were obviously getting faster and faster.

After instructing his servants not to approach the study for fifty meters, Bai Jun rushed into the study and burst into tears.

It turns out that at the door just now, a Yugui entered Bai Jun's mind. After that, he knew everything, including Bai Qing's death.

Seventeenth

The news that Bai Gong and Bai Qing passed away in Chaoge due to illness officially reached Chang'an. Even though Bai Jun had received the news for a long time, when he saw the whole house crying and howling, everyone looked sad, and it was inevitable that he would feel sad in his heart.

Changle Palace

Bai Hui, who was lying on the bed, was overly sad after hearing the news. After vomiting a few mouthfuls of blood, she fell into coma again.

Bai Jun didn't have time to say goodbye to Bai Hui, so he just asked someone to send a message to the palace. After handing over the political affairs to Shi Sujian, the Prime Minister's Office Director, Bai Jun rushed to Chaoge to hold the funeral without stopping.

During this period, Empress Bai woke up several times and ordered Hanoi to mourn for three days and Chaoge and Chang'an to mourn for seven days. People in the world do not need to force it. According to what was written in Bai Jun's letter, the posthumous title of Bai Gongqing was issued as Bai Guangxin Gong, which can be referred to as Guangxin Gong.

Weiyang Palace

"Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Queen Mother is unconscious and unable to deal with the affairs of the court, and Prime Minister Bai rushes to Chaoge to mourn. If you don't take advantage of this opportunity, I'm afraid you will regret it!" He is already seventy-five years old. His heart is not old, he is still attached to power, and he constantly encourages the Han Emperor to seize the power from the White Queen.

"Yes, now is the time when the power of the Bai family is at its lowest point. Your Majesty is the emperor. The Queen Mother is a female. After your Majesty took charge, she still holds on to her power and refuses to hand it over. Even God can't stand it, so she created this opportunity for us. , This is God helping us. If we don't obey God's will, we will definitely suffer the consequences." Lu Chan, the Marquis of Zhou Lu, also added fuel to the fire.

At this time, the Emperor of Han was sitting on the throne with a gloomy expression and some hesitation. After all, this was his mother, the queen he respected and loved the most, and who had raised him single-handedly.

"Not enough." Emperor Han suddenly said.

Shen Shiqi and Lu Chan looked at each other, and Shen Shiqi said: "General Lu and I can promise your majesty that after we win the power, we will try our best to control the court. Your majesty's wish to obey the law can also be realized." .”

"Okay! I will take care of it at the Queen Mother's place. Next, I will arrange for you to join the court and the army. Whether you are confident or not depends on you." Emperor Han stood up and said.

"I am willing to issue a military order!" Shen Shiqi and Lu Chan knew that wealth was in front of them, and they immediately bowed and said excitedly.

19th

Emperor Han led three thousand palace guards from Weiyang Palace, three hundred men, and five hundred armed eunuchs to Changle Palace.

South Gate of Changle Palace

When the palace gate guards saw a large group of soldiers and horses appearing in front of them, they quickly closed the palace gate.

"Your Majesty, please come to Changle Palace. Why don't you open the door quickly?" a sergeant said to the guard of Changle Palace.

"I did not receive an order from His Majesty to come to Changle Palace. Please forgive me for not being able to open the palace door. Besides, what do you want from so many soldiers and horses?" The female general guarding the gate yelled at the sergeant who called the door.

"General Liu, do you still recognize me?" The guard from Weiyang Palace stepped forward to answer the female general.

"General Lu, why are you not stationed at Weiyang Palace to protect His Majesty, but instead brought troops to our Changle Palace? Isn't this just leaving the post without permission?" Liu Lan, the guard of Changle Palace, frowned.

Lu An said: "My duty as a sergeant in Weiyang Palace is to guard Your Majesty, and to directly obey His Majesty's orders. Now His Majesty is driving Changle Palace and asking our troops to accompany him. This is an imperial edict. How can we say that he left his post without permission?"
Besides, His Majesty is now in power, so I dare not not listen to his words? Now that His Majesty is in the army behind me, are you prepared to disobey His Majesty's orders? "

Liu Lan frowned and said: "Of course I dare not disobey His Majesty's orders, but no troops from Weiyang Palace have ever entered Changle Palace. You said His Majesty is behind you, but how do I know whether it is true or not? Besides, I directly I obey the Queen Mother’s orders and forgive me for not opening the door.”

At this time, Emperor Han rode his horse slowly to the front of the formation and shouted loudly: "Why, Liu Weiwei doesn't even recognize me?"

Seeing that it was indeed the Han Emperor, Liu Lan quickly asked people to put down their weapons and crossbows aimed at the city, "all weapons down," for fear of hurting the Han Emperor. Then he saluted the Han Emperor and said: "Liu Lan, the guard of Changle Palace, is here to see your majesty. Your majesty will live forever."

"Open the door!" Emperor Han said expressionlessly.

"This..." Liu Lan was confused: "Without the Queen Mother's order, Shu Mo will not be able to open the door."

"Presumptuous!" Emperor Han scolded loudly.

Liu Lan immediately saluted and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

At this time, a doctor next to the Han Emperor came out and said: "Now that Your Majesty is here, do you still want His Majesty, who is rich in gold, to wait here? Why don't you hurry up and ask for the Queen Mother's orders?" Liu Lan turned her head and asked quickly. General: "What, the Queen Mother's decree hasn't arrived yet?"

The general said: "The Queen Mother fell into a coma and hasn't woken up yet."

Liu Lan sighed, thinking that she had to try her best to hold it off.

After waiting for a while, the doctor said again: "Liu Weiwei, why hasn't the decree arrived yet? Or have you rebelled now and want to kidnap the Queen Mother?"

Liu Lan's face suddenly changed and she said: "Nonsense, we were promoted by the Queen Mother herself, and we are loyal to the Queen Mother. How could we rebel?"

"Then why did your Majesty want to see his biological mother, but you stopped him?"

"this···"

"He's hemming and hawing. It's obvious that he's hiding something. Your Majesty, at this moment, why don't you recruit the truth quickly?"

Liu Lan had no choice but to say: "The Queen Mother is in a coma and cannot issue orders, but the generals and others cannot open the door without orders."

The doctor added: "Since the Queen Mother is unconscious now, Your Majesty should come to the palace to take care of her. Secondly, the Queen Mother is unconscious. Your Majesty's will is the highest order of the Han Dynasty. Please open the door quickly."

Liu Lan really had no choice but to say: "General, you can open the door, but only Your Majesty is allowed to bring the doctors in. According to the law, soldiers and horses from Weiyang Palace are not allowed to enter Changle Palace."

The doctor looked back at Emperor Han, who nodded, and the doctor said: "Okay, open the door!"

The general next to him said: "General, do you really want to open the door? With so many soldiers and horses in the city, it must be someone who is not evil. Once the door is opened, everything will stop."

"Open the door," Liu Land said.

"General!"

"Open the door!!!" Liu Lan roared angrily.

"Here" the general said unwillingly.

"Creak!" The heavy palace door of Changle Palace opened wide.

Inside, Weiwei Liu Lan and several hundred palace guards watched vigilantly as Emperor Han and his guards entered slowly.

As soon as he entered the palace gate, the doctor beside him massacred the guards. Liu Lan's face changed drastically and he ordered the palace gate to be seized, but did not order the crossbowmen to shoot because the Han Emperor was standing at the palace gate.

I saw a strange shape at the palace gate. Two armies with the same uniforms were fighting like enemies for many years. One side was a female soldier and the other was a male soldier. They were evenly matched. There were stumps and broken arms all over the ground, and blood was trickling down. , and within ten steps of Emperor Han, there was not even a drop of blood. It was so clean that it gave the illusion that he was not on the battlefield.

Soon, the Weiyang Palace Guards outside the palace arrived. Lu An ordered to retreat, and suddenly the Changle Palace Guards were completely empty.

"put!"

Densely packed bows, arrows and crossbows came towards the Changle Palace Guards. In order to block the offensive, the Changle Palace Guards formed a very dense formation. This time, more than half of the casualties were caused.

"Kill!" Lu An ordered after seeing the remarkable results.

Soon, all the guards in Changle Palace were killed, leaving only one female general, Liu Lan, whose helmet was knocked off, revealing her long hair, but her hair was disheveled, covered in blood, and her armor and stomach were badly damaged.

Emperor Han slowly stepped forward, only to see Liu Lan's face covered with blood and one eye pierced by a bow and arrow. She was half-kneeling on the ground with her sword in hand, and her other eye was staring at Emperor Han.

The Han Emperor was so stunned that he ordered him to be shot to death with random arrows.

In this way, Liu Lan, the first female general officially included in the establishment of the Han Dynasty, did not die on the battlefield in her dream, but died in the palace chaos.

The Emperor of Han led his army straight towards the Queen Mother's palace. Along the way, all the maids and female officials who resisted were killed. The ones who did it were the eunuchs who had been suppressed for many years.

Soon, Emperor Han and others came to the Queen Mother's palace, and saw the Queen Mother's personal female officer guarding the door with dozens of remaining female military guards, armed maids and female officers holding swords.

The female officer stepped forward expressionlessly and said, "Does Your Majesty want to bring Bingfeng to meet his biological mother?"

Emperor Han hesitated and said, "You ask them to put down their weapons and let my people guard the palace."

The female officer sneered and said, "Then your Majesty, aren't you afraid that there are swordsmen and axemen hiding in the palace? Does your Majesty still want to bring weapons into the palace?"

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty was speechless, and the female officer regained her composure and said: "Your Majesty is the Queen Mother's son and the emperor of the Han Dynasty. We will not harm Your Majesty. Since Your Majesty wants to visit the Queen Mother, please let your men wait outside the door!"

The doctor on the side said: "Your Majesty, now we have reached the last step. If you fight in, you can seize the power." Lu An on the side did not speak.

Emperor Han glanced at the man who was full of tricks and tricks along the way and said: "You mean to let me rush in and kill my biological mother?"

The doctor's hair stood on end when the Emperor of Han saw him, and he was speechless.

Emperor Han took off the sword from his waist and handed it to Lu An beside him. He slowly walked towards the palace, with the female officer leading the way.

Lu An, who took over the Han Emperor's sword, looked at the doctor with disdain and ridicule in his eyes, and the doctor secretly clenched his fists.

"It's been so long and I still don't know your name?" On the way, Emperor Han asked the Queen Mother's personal female officer.

The female officer turned her head and gave a slight salute: "I dare to teach your majesty that I have no father or mother since I was a child. It was the Queen Mother who found me in the orphanage and gave me the surname Shangguan, Shangguan Rui." After speaking, she continued to lead the way.
