The rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 476
Overnight, the two big celebrities in front of the imperial court were ransacked and beheaded. This shocking change caused an uproar in the court.

In the Hall of Qinzheng, Situ Rui was elated when he received the news from the supervisor that Li You and Shen Qichang had been put to death.

He held a roster in his hand, which was top-secret information stolen from the Lingzhou Palace by the hands of Huang Ying, and sent back to Beijing by Xiao Han in a hurry all the way. Shen Qichang is all listed.

"What a cunning Situ Yan, if I hadn't discovered the real roster written in the fake roster with potion, I would have been tricked by you!" Situ Rui sneered.

The list that Xiaohan sent back was full of Tang Zhongze's products. He wanted to believe it at first, but when he held the list close to the candle, he discovered that after the fire, the names on the list were It is completely different!
Shen Qichang, Li You and other people he trusted most were among them.

Li You and Shen Qichang had a lot of money in the Jiangnan disaster relief before, but Situ Rui was very annoyed by this fact. In addition, when the roster was released, Situ Rui's suspicions exploded!

It turned out that these people had already found a new master before they dared to be so confident!If they hadn't worked hand in hand with Situ Yan, how dare they always hold him back at critical moments!
"Good for you, Li You, good for you, Shen Qichang, thanks to my trust in you, that's how you repay me! It's so deep!" Situ Rui slapped the table and stood up, "Situ Yan, don't you want to be emperor? ? Don't you want to take back your throne? I want to see, you lost the support of such an accomplice, what do you have to fight against me!"

Mo Huang and Bai Ya, who were kneeling at the bottom, looked at each other and silently lowered their heads.

"Li Deshou!" Situ Rui called Li Deshou at the top of his voice.People outside the hall pushed the door open and came in, Mo Huang and Bai Ya had already disappeared.The speed is astonishing.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"Li You and Shen Qichang are planning to commit crimes, and the national teachers they recommend are the same. You go and pass the decree to order Qu Moyan to lead the imperial guards to arrest Yu Feng immediately! The deputy commander of the imperial army Zhao Hong's corpse is a vegetarian meal. Into the prison awaiting trial."

Li Deshou hurriedly said: "Yes!"

Since then, many of Situ Rui's thighs in the court have been assassinated one after another or given to death for committing crimes. People are panicked and everyone is in danger.

Situ Rui was cunning and suspicious, and Situ Yan took advantage of him.Situ Rui was too self-willed and determined to go his own way, so he would never have imagined that the roster stolen from the Lingzhou Palace by the hands of Huang Ying was the killing list that Situ Yan and Qin Wange had arranged for him early in the morning.

This roster is true and false, just to confuse the public.The first roster that looks fake is the real one.Little did he know that he was personally guillotining those who were loyal to him.

Although Li You and Shen Qichang did not wholeheartedly serve Situ Rui, they would definitely support Situ Rui for their own power and status. Unfortunately, Situ Rui executed them all with his own hands. Since then, he has lost his accomplices.

But this is a great good thing for Xiling, eliminating pests for the people and moths for the country.

Taking advantage of the turmoil in the capital, Situ Yan's people searched everywhere for the whereabouts of Concubine Qiong's remains. This line was also the only clue to track down Yun Ruotian.At this time, even Situ Xiao couldn't sit still anymore, the two forces, Yun Ruotian and Situ Xiao, were moving at the same time, competing with each other, which revealed a flaw for Situ Yan to pursue.

However, the affairs of the capital had reached the most critical moment, and Situ Yan could not walk away even a single step.

In the name of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Lingzhou Prince's Mansion sent a personal guard to enter Beijing in the name of King Lingzhou's entry into Beijing and the Queen Mother's birthday celebration. When the guards arrived in Beijing, Situ Yan showed his face in the capital.

Although the mid-autumn festival has passed and it will soon enter September, this does not affect the filial piety of King Lingzhou, who was raised by the queen mother, when he came to visit the queen mother.

Situ Yan went to the palace to face the Lord, Situ Rui watched Situ Yan appearing swaggeringly, his teeth itched with hatred, but he couldn't attack.Situ Yan was still in the palace asking to play and see the Queen Mother, but Situ Rui didn't want to refuse at the court.

Situ Yan was not in a hurry, and said sincerely: "Brother Emperor, I lost my mother when I was young, and was brought up by the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager is just like my own mother. In the past two years, you have said that the Empress Dowager is recovering from illness. Even on New Year's Eve and Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn't invite her to come out. I understand that you are here for the Queen Mother, but I just want to go to Ci'an Palace to visit her old man. I won't disturb you. Please take care of me. For the sake of filial piety, Enzhun's younger brother enters Ci'an Palace to visit the Empress Dowager and her elderly family."

After finishing speaking, he solemnly kowtowed to Situ Rui.

Tang Zhongze followed up and said: "Your Majesty, the King of Lingzhou was raised by the Queen Mother since he was a child, and he and the Queen Mother are as close as his own mother and child. The King of Lingzhou has not seen his mother for a long time, and it is natural for the King of Lingzhou to want to visit his sick mother. Please allow your Majesty."

Nalan Yun followed suit, "Your Majesty, the king of Lingzhou is very filial. It's really human nature to visit his mother who is sick. Please give me your permission."

There was a brief silence in the hall, but soon, there was a sound of "seconding" in the hall.The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty said one after another: "The minister seconded the proposal."

Situ Rui's complexion suddenly turned pale.There was no longer Li You who spoke for him in the palace, no Shen Qichang who made excuses for him, he could only watch all the officials standing beside Situ Yan, unable to do anything.

Situ Rui vaguely felt that he had been fooled!But it was too late.The civil and military supporters of the whole court are all Situ Yan, and he has no room to intervene.

"The King of Lingzhou can go if he wants to visit the Empress Dowager, and I can't stop you from being filial. Li Deshou, you will take the King of Lingzhou to Ci'an Palace later, and retreat from the court." Situ Rui said to himself, then When he was gone, his face was darker than the bottom of the pot.

"My lord, please come with the slaves." Li Deshou led Situ Yan out of the hall.

All the ministers looked at me and looked at you, each one of them didn't talk too much, and they all withdrew.When Tang Xiang, Lord Nalan and others exited the hall, they glanced at Situ Yan and left as if nothing had happened.

Situ Yan was waiting for the final preparations to be completed.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

No one came in or out of Ci'an Palace for a long time, and it was lifeless.

Even the few people Situ Rui sent to watch the Queen Mother lost their patience long ago, fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, carelessly.But in other words, no one would feel threatened by an old woman who lay in bed all day.

Therefore, before Li Deshou led Situ Yan into the Ci'an Palace, Qin Wange and others had already sent the restored Queen Mother back to the Ci'an Palace, and everything was seamless.

Huaying, the head of Ci'an Palace, suddenly saw Li Deshou coming, thinking that his inattentiveness had been discovered, and was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and dared not move.

"Eunuch Li, I would like to have a few words with the Queen Mother alone, is that okay?" Situ Yan said to Li Deshou very politely.

"Naturally, naturally." Li Deshou said, then turned to the group of people beside him, "You all step back."

When Huaying withdrew, she took a look in and saw that the queen mother who had been lying on the bed for so long actually sat up, smiled at her brightly, screamed in fright, and passed out.

Li Deshou winked at the guard outside, and the guard dragged him out.He himself withdrew.

"Empress Mother, I have been wronging you for a few days. I will let someone take care of you in Ci'an Palace, as long as these few days are fine." Situ Yan helped the Empress Dowager out of bed while talking.

The queen mother shook her head with a loving face, "I'm fine, Yan'er doesn't have to worry about me. The queen mother knows what you want to do, so go ahead and don't worry about me. Besides, with your people protecting me, the queen mother is not afraid. That child It's hopeless. The country that the late emperor handed over to him has been tormented by him to the point of being devastated. You are right. If you don't stop him, you don't know how far you will go wrong. These years, I am useless The old lady watched him and that woman become more and more greedy, but there was no way to stop it, fortunately there were you."

Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager couldn't help showing a gratified smile, "If it weren't for you and Wan'er, I don't know how far things would have developed. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty was stalking, the people on the frontier were suffering, and the Xiling Mausoleum was in danger. You saved the world. It has done a great favor.”

The queen mother took Situ Yan's hand and said earnestly, "God left Wan'er, it's my luck in Xiling, Yan'er, you can't let go this time."

"I will, queen mother."

After Situ Yan left, the Empress Dowager opened the window and stood in front of the window. The clouds drifted away in the sky, and she seemed to see her former good sister smiling at her in the sky.

"Sister Qiongfei, you have seen it in the spirit of the sky, your son, Yan'er is so promising now. He takes good care of his family and country. Look at my son, I have no way to teach him, and I can't teach him well. .You are much better than me."

On the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of September, there was no queen in the palace to preside over the overall situation. Qin Wange, the imperial concubine, took care of everything. Situ Rui was so angry that he couldn't speak, because, since Xu Qiushui was thrown into the cold palace, he realized that everything in the palace was his own. I can't get in!

On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, Situ Rui routinely climbed to the altar with all the officials to thank the gods and gods for this year's harvest, and pray for a good weather in the coming year.

At the beginning of the ceremony, the queen mother who had been lying on the hospital bed for two years appeared in the crowd without warning, and the rumors that the queen mother was seriously ill were self-defeating.

When Situ Rui saw the Queen Mother, he almost fell off the chair, his face was completely pale.

"Is the emperor surprised to see Ai's family?" With the support of Liu Ruxin, the queen mother walked towards Situ Rui step by step.

The bun is neatly combed, the clothes are decent, the demeanor is calm, the complexion is rosy, and there is no slightest sickness.

What Situ Yan had been waiting for was this day.

No one is more convincing than the Queen Mother.
