Chapter 87 Confronting the Queen Mother

The three most prominent members of the Great Wei entered the government office, Zhao Yuanjian and Xiao Hengduan sat on the throne set up in the court.The Queen Mother is listed in the side seat.

Civil and military officials also filed in, and the filmed shifts were listed on both sides, with their heads down and worried.

Zhao Yuanjian's eyes were as cold as thousands of years of ice, sitting on the throne, with one hand holding the sword on the ground, and the other hand grabbed Xiao Heng's hand and put it on his lap to hold it tightly.Xiao Heng let him hold it, and his eyes were as cold as October in midwinter.

The queen mother looked angry: "You, an unfilial son of the Zhao family, dare to deal such cruelty to the world of the Ai family!"

Zhao Yuanjian remained calm, his eyes darkened, and he said: "If my aunt hadn't treated His Majesty badly, this king would not have conspired to make trouble. This is my aunt's fault."

When the queen mother heard what he said about herself, she snorted angrily: "Didn't you also betray the emperor, your next step is to abolish the emperor and kill the prince."

"This king will help His Majesty take back the north and let His Majesty secure the throne."

"It's a big joke. You don't have to cover up your true colors now. You don't have to lie to the emperor by telling lies. Now that you have self-respect and military power in your hands, how can you return the power to the emperor!" The queen mother laughed loudly. There is no warmth in her smile, it is colder than the cold wind outside the house.She half smiled.

Xiao Heng hurriedly interjected: "Mother, what the vassal king said is true, please believe that the vassal king rebelled for the sake of me, and I will continue to be the emperor of Wei."

Queen Mother: "The emperor is so naive. He is the son of Zhao Shengqi, and he has occupied half of the country. Even if you are close friends, he will not cede the imperial power to you."

Xiao Heng stood up and confronted her head to head: "Mother, it has been a long time to see people's hearts, and the king treats me more than gold. Rest assured, I will not be the emperor of a subjugated country."

There was a threat in Zhao Yuanjian's words: "Your Majesty, there is no need to explain. I am a powerful minister now, and I will be like this in the future. I am not afraid of anyone except Your Majesty."

All civil and military officials lowered their heads and listened to the "swords and swords" in the hall without saying a word. They were confused and uneasy. No one knew how the current situation had changed.

At this moment, General Zhongwu and Qi He entered the courtroom through the side door, and Qi He said, "The military lords have been recruited!"

Zhao Yuanjian: "Rename the Southern Army to the Great Wei Army, replace the banners with the Great Wei banners, and replace the armor with the Great Wei armor!"

Qi He clasped his fists: "It's the feudal lord!"

General Zhongwu: "How should the commanders of each battalion be set up?"

Zhao Yuanjian: "Replace all the generals of our southern army. Tomorrow you will lead [-] troops to support Wei's northern army against the Xiongnu."

The two of them withdrew.The queen mother sneered after hearing this.

Zhao Yuanjian saw the princess next to the queen mother, and he said: "Princess, please tell the queen that she has been deposed."

The princess came over softly, frowned, and whispered in his ear, "The queen had an affair with a royal guard, and eloped with him when the Huns occupied the capital. I didn't expect such a scandal to happen to the royal family."

Zhao Yuanjian laughed happily: "If this king knows where the queen is, I will send her to help her, and I will definitely make a first-rank madam."

Zhao Yuanjian closed his eyes and announced loudly: "Since the queen has eloped, I will be the queen of Wei in the future!"

The empress dowager minister seemed to be shocked by the thunder. Zhao Yuanjian didn't plan to change the dynasty and become the emperor or make the emperor his own puppet. He actually wanted to be the queen.And it is an unprecedented precedent for a man to be a queen.

Xiao Heng also said: "I have already selected a date, half a month later the wedding ceremony will be held in Xiangyang City, and the Minister of Rites will immediately prepare all the wedding matters."

Minister of Rites: "Your Majesty, this... this is unprecedented."

Prime Minister: "I think this matter needs to be postponed..."

Xiao Heng snorted coldly: "I have made up my mind, who dares to refuse!"

After the hall meeting was over, all civil and military officials withdrew from the hall, and there were only three people left in the room.

Zhao Yuanjian: "Auntie, please return the jade seal to the emperor."

The queen mother was irritated by him today, and snorted coldly: "The Ai family won't hand it over!"

Zhao Yuanjian immediately called the soldiers outside the door: "The Queen Mother, please go back to the residence and find Yuxi."

The queen mother felt that this was a great humiliation, and she stood up abruptly: "You unfilial son, it is in vain for me to take good care of your nephew. I used to betroth the princess to you, and later I called you a feudal king. Now you are under house arrest." I!"

After the queen mother finished speaking, she walked away, and the soldiers followed her to the backyard.

Zhao Yuanjian looked at the queen mother's back gloomyly, and he shouted: "The emperor will be the emperor of Wei in the future, so my aunt should stop engaging in conspiracy."

When the queen mother heard that she looked back at him, she felt greatly insulted.

In the evening, the Empress Dowager sent soldiers to invite Xiao Heng to the heavily guarded mansion.The princess son-in-law went out to greet him and let Xiao Heng into the mansion.

Xiao Heng walked into the rich door, and the eunuch lifted the thick curtain for Xiao Heng, and Xiao Heng walked into the house through the curtain.He looked at the empress dowager sitting on the pineapple chair uncomfortably, and said, "Is the empress dowager?"

The queen mother said sharply: "Zhao Yuanjian is a wolf with ambition. To take your country away is just treating you as a male favorite. If you have a chance, kill him, so that you can have a chance to take back your country."

"He won't, he is the best person in the world to me. Without him, I would have died long ago. If he wants my country, I will give it to him, and I will be his queen." Xiao Heng turned around and wanted to leave, He didn't know how to treat the queen mother, she was his biological mother after all.

"You stupid people, your majesty, you will regret it." The queen mother burst into tears after she finished speaking. Being deprived of power was worse than killing her. Lived a life under house arrest.

The princess hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her, put a pillow behind the chair for her, and wiped her tears with a brocade handkerchief. She said, "Queen, don't cry."

Xiao Heng turned around and said, "I will not put you under house arrest and put you in the cold palace. You are still the master of the harem, but I hope you will not object to our marriage."

When the Queen Mother heard Xiao Heng's words, she stopped crying suddenly: "You didn't put me under house arrest."

"I'm just your biological mother. You still have affection for me, otherwise you wouldn't let me become emperor. I have too many enemies, all of them are more vicious than you. I am tired and don't want to live on hatred anymore." He laughed after he finished speaking, he wanted to live in Zhao Yuanjian's love in the future.

The queen mother wiped her tears, she said: "I didn't expect the emperor to be so open-minded."

The queen mother asked the princess to present the jade seal, and Xiao Heng put the jade seal in his sleeve. He said: "You rest, my sister will accompany the queen mother."

Xiao Heng walked out of the courtyard and walked towards his main house. He picked up Xiao Luan who was playing in the courtyard and walked into the main house.

Zhao Yuanjian was concentrating on watching the northern marching strategy with Qi He, Xu Junshi, General Xishu and others.When the military adviser and others saw Xiao Heng coming in, they all knelt down and said, "See Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

Xiao Heng hurriedly said: "Waiting for the ceremony, I thank you for your dedication to Wei, and I will reward you personally in the future."

Master Xu: "My ministers and all the generals are willing to serve His Majesty like a dog."

They saw Xiao Heng hugging the little prince, looked at Zhao Yuanjian, with a sweet smile on his face, hurriedly said his words, and left the mansion.

They chatted quietly in the courtyard.

General Xishu: "The emperor is so handsome, those watery eyes are so beautiful, I am dumbfounded."

General Zhongwu laughed loudly: "That's why our vassals fought on the battlefield regardless of their lives."

Qi He: "You dare to talk about the vassal king and the emperor, you are so bold, let's go to a bar and celebrate."

Xiao Heng sat on the crescent chair with Xiao Luan in his arms, and said with a smile: "This is our emperor, you don't look cute."

Xiao Luan's big black and watery eyes resembled Xiao Heng very much. He held Cuju in his left hand, and chewed a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his right hand. His mouth was full of scum.

Zhao Yuanjian picked him up and kissed him hard: "This is my son, great that I have a son!"

Xiao Luan was a little scared seeing such a mighty man, he kept kicking his little feet, trying to break free from his hand.He shouted: "Father, save me!"

Xiao Heng carried Xiao Luan back, hugged him in his arms and kissed his rosy face, he said, "Don't be afraid, my son, this is your empress father."

Xiao Luan: "Father, why is the queen mother a man?"

The two adults roared with laughter, and Xiao Heng handed Xiao Luan to Zhao Yuanjian: "My son, let your father hug me, and my father will give you plum blossom cake soon."

Zhao Yuanjian reached out to take Xiao Luan and let him sit on his lap. Xiao Luan was chubby, with flesh on his arms and legs.Zhao Yuanjian liked it very much: "You look somewhat similar to His Majesty, like your own father and son."

Xiao Luan blinked his eyes wide, touched Zhao Yuanjian's face, and he called obediently: "Father Queen!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuanjian excitedly lifted him up and turned him around a few times, Xiao Luan kept giggling happily.

Xiao Heng was afraid that he would drop the child, so he hurriedly snatched it back and fed him plum cake.

Xiao Heng put Xiao Luan on the railing bed, and they sat on the bed together, coaxing Xiao Luan to play.

Zhao Yuanjian asked the eunuch to bring some desserts and put them on the kang table.

Xiao Heng held the child in his arms and kept shaking it, which made Xiao Luan giggle.Xiao Heng grabbed the pouch on the bed hook and ate it in his mouth. He said, "Father, let me go, hahaha...."

Xiao Heng was amused by Xiao Luan's cuteness, and tickled Xiao Luan.Xiao Luan turned a few somersaults on the bed, sweating profusely from playing.

Sitting at the Kang table, Xiao Heng took out the Analects of Confucius to coax Xiao Luan to read.Zhao Yuanjian sneered: "You still want to teach our emperor?"

Xiao Heng snorted: "For the sake of the emperor, I have re-learned the Four Books and Five Classics, hum!"

"Amazing! Having the emperor is different, like a good mother."

"I am the father, you are the mother!"

Zhao Yuanjian was lying on the bed pinching Xiao Luan's chubby feet, he said with a wicked smile: "Then untie the dragon robe and feed Luan'er."

Xiao Heng hit him angrily: "Don't talk nonsense! Don't say this in front of the emperor."

Zhao Yuanjian put his arms around Xiao Heng's waist, his eyes were full of desire: "Then feed me."

Zhao Yuanjian shouted to the little eunuch outside the door: "Send the prince back to his room."

The little eunuch came in to salute, and took the reluctant Xiao Luan away.Xiao Luan shouted outside the door: "Father, I'm afraid, I want to sleep with you!"

Xiao Heng stood up, walked to the soft smoke window, opened the curtain and looked at Xiao Luan, he said, "Shall we sleep with the emperor?"

Zhao Yuanjian: "It's not good for the emperor to see, wait for you to feed me, and then bring him back."

Zhao Yuanjian carried Xiao Heng back to the wooden bed, took off his boots, and pulled down the bed curtain.He untied Xiao Heng's front and sucked it in one mouthful, as if wanting to suck out the juice.

Zhao Yuanjian said: "Your Majesty is really a stunner. This red cherry is as big as a woman."

Xiao Heng took off their jade hairpins, spread out their long hair like a galaxy, and rubbed Zhao Yuanjian's head emotionally.

Zhao Yuanjian turned him over and pushed him down, and the curtain swayed.
