As for the queen, who should be called the "Queen Dowager" now, she was captured by the spies of Mu Lancao and Mu Huanghua, and Lu Yingmo gave her to Concubine Li Gui.To put it bluntly, he was sent to his mother's palace as a favor.

Now she is already a tool at the mercy of others, a gift given out at will to please others.

Zhangye is in the palace of Concubine Li.

Concubine Li Gui sat peacefully, looked forward, and said, "Is this the Empress Dowager?"

The queen fell to the ground with a slumped face, and touched her dirty cheek with her hand, but there was no humble look on her face, she was still as proud as ever.

She grinned, her dark eyes revealing a charming and fierce light, she opened her eyes wide and looked straight at Concubine Li, who was sitting high on the wide chair.She let out a laugh, and just smiled, "Ha, we women, in the final analysis, mothers are more expensive than children. Zhuaner lost, and I, a mother, will be dealt with. If you want to kill or cut It's all up to you. However, don't think that you are so great. The emperor favored you only because your sister died early, and it was because she died when she was pregnant for the first time. In fact, the emperor did not I have never liked you. Over the years, as a noble concubine, you have to stay away when you see me as the queen? I am a concubine, and you are a concubine. Even if you become the queen mother because of your son with a human face and a beast heart, you will But the successor empress dowager, Great Liang's first empress dowager, is still me!"

Speaking of this, the empress looked at Concubine Li with bulging eyes, as if she was about to kill someone!

Concubine Li Gui smiled, looked down at her with a look of disdain, and said mockingly: "Really? What the emperor values ​​me, besides family background, at least has affection for my sister. But, who values ​​you, I guess Only your family background is left? Oh, yes, I almost forgot, your uncle has already regarded you and your son as abandoned pawns, and sold you? Winners and losers have always been like this. Do you know how ridiculous it is for a person who is about to die to speak up here without shame?"

"Tch," she sneered, "mother, empress."

Speaking of this, Concubine Li stared at the queen on the ground, and suddenly screamed ferociously!

"—Give me a hand!"

She swept it away!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The arm slipped, and she went from struggling violently to not struggling.Eyeballs bulging, mouth foaming, tongue sticking out, whole body convulsing... She was already dead.

"Anxin. You are not the only one who died from this poison..." Concubine Li Gui let out a light laugh.Accompanied by the rhythmic footsteps, she walked out of the palace in satisfaction.

The war is over.

As for those people who were originally in the capital, including the empress, those who worked in the palace, including the prince and the family members of the Wang family, there is no news and their whereabouts are unknown.

The Imperial Guard Army and Yi Army re-stabilized the rule of Wuwei area, so that Lu Guang could return to Luan as soon as possible.

Not long after, Lu Guang and all the people in Zhangye returned to Beijing.

The Jiangnan Army and the Guanxi Army each extorted a large sum of money from the houses before leaving.After all, many of them have never seen the golden mountains and silver seas in Guzang's capital city. How can there be any reason to fight a war without taking advantage of it?

The only exception is the North China Army, saying that the army has not yet been reorganized, and it has been reluctant to leave for a long time.

After the Jiangnan Army and the Guanxi Army had withdrawn from Wuwei, Lu Guang issued an imperial edict ordering them to leave, but the North China Army still did not leave.

Finally, the North China Army withdrew from Guzang and stayed in Changsong.

Changsong is another county under Wuwei County, a certain distance from Guzang, but not too far away.It is equivalent to parking the cannon at the door of the house, but if you shoot directly, you still can't shoot yourself.

Although it is to rectify military affairs, but the army stays in Wuwei County and will not go, how can we teach the superiors to rest assured?

Peng Mingsu bowed: "Your Majesty, the North China General doesn't listen to the imperial decree, he only listens to the third prince's words. It's not good to let it go!"

Lu Guang twirled his beard and thought, "Hmm... Mo'er is beside us now, unarmed, in the Huiguang Palace in Guzang. It shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Peng Ming clasped his fists forward, looked at Lu Guang and said, "At the beginning we had no choice but to order the soldiers to enter the capital. This is really a way to lure wolves into the house! I hope Your Majesty will consider it carefully!"

At this time, Ji Xiuqing next to Peng Ming also clasped his fists and said: "The ministers are willing to mobilize the army to stay behind in Guzang and serve as a shield for Your Majesty!"

"Okay! I'm counting on you two!" Lu Guang nodded and fell into deep thought after speaking.

But said that the emperor Wang Kuang, who was captured in the North China Army barracks, was summoned to the main camp by Yao Xuanxia alone, and faced the coming end alone.

Wang Kuang was still so elegant, as if he was not the one who violated all the principles of sages, "General, you summoned your ministers, what orders do you have?" He said neither humble nor overbearing.

Yao Xuanxia stood face to face with him, looked into his eyes and said: "Master Wang, you are a great Confucian, why do you want to kill the king?"

"Oh?"

"Not only did you kill the king, but you also conspired against him. You even provoked rebellion. Master Wang is a person who has read the books of sages, and he behaved like this. This is a crime that can only be punished." Yao Xuanxia smiled slightly and said softly to Wang Kuang.

"Hey," Wang Kuang laughed self-deprecatingly, "That's because, as a great Confucian, I searched the books of sages for an answer that I couldn't find all my life, and finally found the answer in reality. It turns out that the assistant emperor The way is to do the most evil things that people can't do, and to use the most vicious means to achieve the most correct goals, so that the person I want to assist will finally become the emperor. Don't blame me for being vicious. In politics, Who is not vicious? Only by doing extreme evil can one achieve ultimate good. Only by doing things that are inferior to pigs and dogs in the eyes of saints can one become a master!"

After hearing these words, Yao Xuanxia didn't have any big reaction, he just smiled slowly, and said in a light tone: "Yes, you are right. Just as you want the prince to be the emperor, I also want King Ye to be the emperor. Emperor, you will do the most despicable bad things for the prince, and I will also do the most despicable bad things for the sake of King Ye. The so-called ministers, that's what it is."

Yao Xuanxia picked up a sword from the rack and threw it in front of Wang Kuang, "As a great Confucian, you should be the most steadfast person in the world. Doesn't the emperor even have the integrity to die for the Lord?"

There was no fear on Wang Kuang's face. He faced death calmly and naturally, "I was born for the prince. If I die for the prince, I will not have any complaints." He picked up the sword.At the same time, when he said this, his tone changed, into a strange tone, "Ha ha. However, as far as I know, the general is not a minister of King Ye, right? The wall is on both sides, and there is never a fixed position. Even my uncle backed us for political interests, and we defected to the emperor. May I ask why the general is so loyal to King Ye?"

While peeling off the sword sheath, he continued to say in that strange tone: "In my opinion, it's because the general has unreasonable thoughts about King Ye, right?"

He looked at Yao Xuanxia and said fiercely: "Otherwise, why would you refuse to withdraw your troops and leave Wuwei? That's because you like him, you want to pursue him, and you want to do this to win his favor. Are you right? He has thoughts that he shouldn't have!"

Yao Xuanxia suddenly opened her eyes wide and her pupils shrank.After a long time, he sighed, and said lightly: "...Of course. A subject is to the monarch, just like a wife is to her husband. The ancients often entrusted a woman's tone of thinking about her husband's boudoir to express her loyalty to the monarch. I For my lord, there is 'love'."

After listening to Yao Xuanxia's answer, Wang Kuang died without regret. "Sure enough! Hehe, your affection will kill someone, either him or yourself!"

"His Royal Highness, we will meet again in the next life!" He pierced his heart with a sword, blood spurted out, and he died immediately.

Yao Xuanxia looked at him and thought: He really deserves to be a wise man at the same level as Lu Yingmo and Jiang Huiyan. To a certain extent, he has indeed discovered the truth.
