Agent Abandoned Concubine: Tyrant, beg for favor

Chapter 234 Calling Back to Beijing
In the lone smoke rising slowly in the desert, General Xu Wei sat in the barracks with brightly lit candles, looking thoughtfully at the battle report documents.

At this time, the guard came in and sent a message, "General."

Xu Wei casually glanced at the person who came, raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's the matter?"

The guard looked around, and there were two waitresses beside Xu Wei.Seeing the guard look at it like this, General Xu Wei understood that the guard must have something important to report.

"You all go down first."

The woman behind obeyed, answered "yes", and then retreated.

The guard cupped his hands and said, "General, news just came from the palace that the emperor... the emperor has died."

"What?" Xu Wei frowned, looking at the guard in disbelief.

The emperor is dead, so now there is no monarch in the court?

"The emperor... the emperor is really gone?" Xu Wei couldn't imagine.

The guard nodded and continued to reply, "Your Majesty died suddenly. Now the Empress Dowager has established herself as Emperor and is in charge of all government affairs in the court."

The emperor has just passed away, isn't the eldest prince succeeding him?It was the queen mother who made herself emperor. Xu Wei twirled two Buddhist beads in his hands, bowed his head in thought for a while, and then told the guards, "You go first. This general knows."

After receiving the order, the guards withdrew, leaving Xu Wei alone in the huge barracks.

Is Su Ruoqi really dead?

Xu Wei had to suspect that this incident happened suddenly, and coupled with the empress' actions, this incident must be fraudulent.

On the Queen's side, a group of people have been called to discuss this time.

The lowly people were all dressed in black, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that they were the Queen's confidantes.

"Is there any movement inside and outside the capital these few days?" The queen asked the people below while sitting on the table.

A man with a jasper sword below cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, there is no movement inside or outside the capital."

The queen sipped tea unhurriedly and said, "In your opinion, where did they go?"

The man was obedient and troubled, and his palms were sweating coldly. They had already seen the Queen's cruelty, so they were very timid.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates think...they must know that the Queen wants to find them, so they are afraid to hide." The man replied, afraid of offending the Queen.

Yes, the empress naturally knew that they would not show up easily, and once they showed up, they would be caught in a trap.

Su Ruoqi is her son, she naturally understands it clearly.

She has also seen Yunxi's resourcefulness.When these two are together, naturally they won't be stupid.

Now if Su Ruoqi and Yunxi still want to regain the throne, what other methods will they have?Naturally, they can only find someone with military power to assist them.

Now the borders of the country have been blocked by the Queen, I believe Yun Xi and Su Ruoqi will not go out.

Now that I think about it, there is no other way but to go to General Xu Wei in the frontier.

"Xu Wei." The queen said two words with confidence, and everyone below was shocked.

The man asked, "How can Your Majesty be sure...they will go to Xu Wei?"

The queen put down the teacup, got up slowly, walked to her highness, walked around, and said unhurriedly, "... General Xu Wei has been guarding the frontier for generations, and he has countless military powers. It must be their plan within."

"But Your Majesty, it's a long way from here to the frontier. How can they get by on their own?" the man asked suspiciously.

I saw the Queen's piercing eyes cast on his face, her gaze was like a torch, "Then do you think they have a better way?"

The man was choked up by the question, "Subordinate, this subordinate knows."

The queen sneered, "It seems that there are eight or nine out of ten, they went to find Xu Wei. Before that, we can't let them get there first."

The empress thought in her heart, if Xu Wei really conspired with Su Ruoqi, her throne would be returned to its original owner one day.

That being the case, don't blame her for being cruel.

"Your Majesty, should we lie in ambush on all the roads to the frontier!" The lowly people rushed to give advice to the queen.

The empress calmed down and thought about it, not long after she took the position of the great treasure, Su Ruoqi and Yun Xi might not be the only ones coveting her throne.

If it takes a lot of manpower to find Su Ruoqi and Yunxi, I'm afraid that people with evil intentions will take advantage of it.

"Don't be in a hurry, this matter still needs to be discussed in the long term." The queen raised her hand and interrupted everyone.

The people below are also very troubled. The queen has always been vigorous and decisive, but now she has become indecisive.

After all, Su Ruoqi is the queen's biological son, so it's no wonder the queen can't make up her mind at this moment.

They are the queen's confidantes, so they naturally solve the queen's problems.

The queen was silent for a long time, and ordered the personal guards, "Go and get the map of our country."

The guards got the Queen's order, and immediately went to the South Study Room. The people in the South Study Room saw that it was the Queen's person, and said very seriously, "What's the matter with you?"

The guard cupped his hands, "The queen wants a map, so she sent me to get it."

The person in the south study said to wait a moment, then went in and took an album to hand to the guard.

The guard thanked the man, then returned to the queen's bedroom and handed over the map.

"Your Majesty, wait and see."

The queen took the album and held it in her hand.Turned a page leading to the frontier.

"There are many roads leading to the frontier. If we bury troops on every road, it will definitely be a waste of manpower." The queen continued, "I'm sure they will go to General Xu Wei, although there are many roads leading to the frontier. , but the only way to go is Dolin Province. And the Dolin Province Road is the only way to get there, we can't predict where they will jump, but in the end, it must be here."

The Queen's Jade Finger landed on the map at Duolin Province Road. When everyone saw it, they suddenly realized it.

"Her Majesty is wise."

The empress was not overwhelmed by the praise of her subordinates, and continued to calmly say, "When the time comes, our people will lie in ambush here, and then we will catch them all."

Before that, one more thing she had to do was to summon Xu Wei back to the capital.

If Xu Wei was loyal to the first emperor and Su Ruoqi, knew their plan, and secretly sent someone to protect Su Ruoqi and Yunxi, then something bad would happen.

"Prepare the four treasures of the study for me." The queen summoned the eunuch in charge of writing.

The maid put aside the teacup on the queen's table, and the eunuch spread the rice paper, took out the wolf hair that the queen always used, and handed it to the queen.

The queen swiped her pen like a god, and immediately wrote Zhang imperial decree, summoning Xu Wei to return to Beijing immediately to wait for his post.
