His Majesty once married me

That night, Qi Yunheng could not fall asleep.

Nanny You, who was identified by Mrs. An Nanhou, was not a loyal and unyielding person. After being taken down by Eunuch Wei, after being pressed for a while, she confessed everything she knew.

But what she told was not what Qi Yunheng liked.

Qi Yunheng originally thought that the matter of "offering male pets" was a rumor deliberately spread by the palace servants left over from the previous dynasty, trying to blackmail him, and even thought of Qin Guogong, thinking that this guy was behind it again.However, Qi Yunheng thought it over and over again, but he did not expect that the real leader of this matter was the Empress Dowager Yun, his biological mother.

Speaking of it, this matter was also Qi Yunheng's negligence for a while.

Qi Yunheng just wanted to control his mother so that she would not come out to be an eyesore again, but he forgot that she had been operating in his back house for many years, and most of the nuns and maidservants in the back house had entered the palace and became palace servants, even if they were not in the cloud. Yun Shi's side, he never held an important position, but he still recognized Yun Shi as his master and devoted his loyalty to her.

This time, Yun's used this group of old servants, through their connection with each other, to spread the news that he wanted to spread out of the palace.Moreover, Nanny You was not the only one employed by the Yun family, and the Wang family and Annanhou's residence were not the only ones who received the news.

The moment Qi Yunheng learned of this, he couldn't help but wonder if he was Yun's biological son.

But after calming down a bit, Qi Yunheng thought of his youngest daughter, Qi Yulin.

In this world, even mothers who want to kill their children can exist, let alone a bad son like Yun's?

Compared with his daughter Qi Yulin, he can already be considered lucky!

This comforting sense of being less than the best and having more than the next made Qi Yunheng somewhat regain his sanity, and then he noticed that Eunuch Wei and Gao Ming, who knew about this together with him, were even more uneasy than him.

Of course, the anxiety of the two of them mainly stemmed from accidentally knowing something they shouldn't know, and it was inevitable that they would feel terrified, fearing that His Majesty would kill them and kill them inexplicably.

But how could Qi Yunheng vent his anger on his confidant and close minister who shared weal and woe with him for the sake of a mother who has always been at odds with him?In that case, he will really become a loner!

Qi Yunheng immediately gave orders to Eunuch Wei and Gao Ming, asking them to start with Nanny You, find out the palace people involved in this matter one by one, tear apart and clean up the relationship network hidden inside the palace.

There are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country.

The imperial palace cannot be controlled by another uncrowned emperor.

No matter the empress dowager, the queen, or the prince who may appear in the future, they must be attached to the big tree of the emperor. They can be branches, leaves, or vines, but they cannot take root on their own and try to grow new roots in vain.

Those who can't figure this out, and those who want to be roots for others, are all objects that must be eradicated.

"This matter should not be violent, but it should not be soft-hearted." Qi Yunheng told Wei Gonggong and Gao Ming, "It is true that there is a lack of people in the palace, but it is better to be short than to be indiscriminate. I would rather do it myself than to do it myself. Clear fools serve!"

Qi Yunheng didn't mention the word "kill" in his words, but Eunuch Wei and Gao Ming heard it very clearly: Palace servants who are loyal to the Queen Mother and work for the Queen Mother must die, but the way of death must be concealed and quiet enough to not cause trouble outside the palace or even Court's attention.

After setting the tone of this big cleansing, Qi Yunheng changed his voice and continued: "Speaking of which, the reason why the Queen Mother was able to sneak through Chen Cang to do this matter is certainly due to the floating of people's hearts, but the more important thing is the people in the palace. The rules are not rigorous enough, so people can take advantage of them and take advantage of them. For the Empress Dowager and the Empress, I will try to restrain them and reduce the contact between the palace and the palace. You two should also use your brains to think about how to make it better. For me, I take good care of my home and guard my door.”

"Your Majesty's worries must be exhausted!" Eunuch Wei and Gao Ming replied in unison.

Since His Majesty still wants to use them to do things, naturally there is no need to worry about the ending of "the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog cooks".

In fact, Eunuch Wei and Gao Ming have followed Qi Yunheng for many years, and have never seen him do anything to kill a donkey. They are also affectionate and righteous to his loyal subordinates, and the two of them never thought that they would have a bad end.It's just that this time the matter involved the Empress Dowager, His Majesty's biological mother. If Qi Yunheng put the word "filial piety" in front and only wanted to save the Empress Dowager, the two of them could only sigh that their luck was bad, and obediently stretched out their necks, waiting for the gate to open. The sword falls, and I will be loyal to His Majesty.

Fortunately, His Majesty still has a steelyard in his heart, clearly remembering what is the real closeness and distance.

Eunuch Wei and Gao Ming were relieved and went to work, but Qi Yunheng, who seemed to have calmed down a long time ago, was still a little uneasy.

It was not the first time that the woman he called his mother had stabbed him in the heart.

Ten years ago, if the Yun family hadn't tossed about expelling the name, leaving the family, and adopting a set of moths, but had married him off and accepted him frankly with the attitude of a loyal minister of "the king's order is hard to break", In his marriage with Ouyang, he might not end up in the capital and could only go out to fight for his life.

Originally, public opinion was on his side and speaking for him.

But the mother Yun stood up and expressed her opinion to the world: Her son is so spineless and shameless, it really makes her feel ashamed, wishing she hadn't given birth to him.

The biological mother has said this, so can others jump out and accuse her of being wrong?

Who else in the world can understand a son better than a mother?

A person who even looks down on his own mother, who else would be willing to look up to him again?

In contrast, Emperor Xinghe just blocked a huge boulder in his way, but Yun's cut off his back way and completely drove him to a dead end.

Fortunately, he was not alone on that road.

Ouyang has been with him all the time, pulling him, so that he will not give up hope and give up hope.

Thinking of Ouyang, Qi Yunheng unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, but soon tightened his lips again.

Now, his first identity is the emperor of the country of Hua. Even if the Yun family is his biological mother, he still has to look up to him, and he can no longer be kicked away just because he disliked him like in the past.

He is the emperor, and the Yun family can become the empress dowager.

If he can't be the emperor, the Yun family can't be the empress dowager either.

More importantly, although Yun once scolded her son for being spineless and shameless, in fact, her own bones are not too hard, and her understanding of etiquette, justice, and shame is not that deep, otherwise, she would not He is ambiguous with his father's family brothers, and he will not scold his son while letting him follow the emperor's will and marry a man.

In the final analysis, the Yun family is just more lenient than self-discipline and stricter than others.

It is impossible for such a person to break the can and smash it. He would rather go all out to bring Qi Yunheng down if he doesn't do well.

The reason why the Yun family came up with the matter of "offering male pets" should not be to discredit him as the emperor and damage his reputation and authority, but it is more likely to be based on the incident itself——

To flatter and win favor.

Qi Yunheng immediately remembered the four words Ouyang once said to him: replace it.

Obviously, his royal husband has seen through everything long ago.

Empress Dowager Yun's target was not him, the emperor, but his imperial husband, Ouyang.

She wants to make Ouyang fall out of favor by being favored by others.

After calming down and thinking about it, Qi Yunheng also realized that he had already controlled the palace to such an extent, if he could let people outside reach in and stir up the wind and rain, then he, the emperor, would stop doing it, so as not to be punished one day. The man touched the bed and cut off his head without knowing it.

As the saying goes, it is difficult to guard against house thieves by day and night.

Since outsiders can't reach out, the mastermind behind this disturbance must come from within the palace.

Ouyang is not blinded like him, so he can see Yun's tricks clearly.

——It would be great if he also had the insightful eyes of the imperial husband.

Qi Yunheng sighed quietly, suddenly feeling very tired.

As soon as the sigh on his side fell, Eunuch Wei's whispered inquiry came from outside the bedroom door.

"Your Majesty hasn't rested yet?"

"But something is wrong?" Qi Yunheng glanced towards the door and asked calmly.

Eunuch Wei immediately opened the curtain, walked in, stood beside Qi Yunheng, and bowed to salute, "Your Majesty, I want to ask you for your favor."

"Say." Qi Yunheng frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty, please send another person to proclaim the decree to Duke Qin, and keep slaves and maidservants to serve His Majesty." Eunuch Wei replied in a deep voice.

Qi Yunheng was stunned for a moment, but immediately raised his brows and said pointedly: "Staying here is also a hard job."

Next, there will be a big cleansing in the palace, and the so-called cleansing is to eliminate dissidents and wash the ground with blood.

If Eunuch Wei went out to preach the decree, he could avoid this errand and save his hands from being contaminated with human lives.

"The meaning of slaves' existence is to relieve His Majesty's worries and problems." Eunuch Wei said without hesitation, "It is not necessary for slaves to announce the decree to Duke Qin; but it is not suitable for others to do this matter in the palace. "

Qi Yunheng thought for a while, then nodded quickly, "Forget it, you can stay in the palace to share my worries, and leave the matter of going out to Beijing to announce the decree to the officials in the court, presumably they will be happy to take over the matter."

"promise!"

Eunuch Wei smiled all over his face, but then put on a straight face, begging Qi Yunheng to rest earlier.

Qi Yunheng sighed and shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to sleep, but I can't sleep!"

"Your Majesty..." Eunuch Wei also knew that the empress dowager's matter had hit Qi Yunheng very hard, and it was only worse than Qin Guogong's disagreement, but the empress dowager and Qi Yunheng are mother and son after all, and if a word is not spoken well, there will be a rift between the Tian family Suspected of flesh and blood.

After thinking about it, Eunuch Wei chose an insertion point that would never go wrong, and said with regret on his face: "It would be great if Nine Thousand Years Old had never left the palace—His Majesty is always happy when he is around."

Qi Yunheng immediately resonated, "Indeed, he always has a way to untangle my heart and make me smile."

"Your Majesty, why don't you call Nine Thousand Years old to accompany you in the palace?" Eunuch Wei suggested, "Although it's a bit late now, there is still a long time before dawn. Sleeping peacefully for two or three hours is better than..."

"Forget it, don't bother him." Although Qi Yunheng was a little moved, he still shook his head, rejecting Eunuch Wei's proposal, "The day after tomorrow will be Xiumu, and I will go directly to his house."

"His Majesty……"

Eunuch Wei wanted to persuade him, but Qi Yunheng raised his hand to stop him.

"You don't need to say much, I'll rest right now—is that okay?"

Qi Yunheng smiled, and ordered Eunuch Wei to call someone in to undress him.

However, Qi Yunheng could force himself to lie down on the bed, but he couldn't force himself to sleep soundly.

This night, after all, it was still difficult to sleep alone.
