Dahanjiao Queen

The sister-brother relationship between Wei Zifu and Wei Qing has always existed in Chen Jiao's heart like a ticking time bomb. The fire in her heart can't be extinguished, and one day Wei Qing will know, but now he knows, but soon... let Chen Jiao At a loss.

"Your Majesty, Wei Qing is now..."

Chen Jiao took a deep breath and calmed down: "I just pretend I don't know about this matter. Fleeting Years, Wei Qing told you such a big thing because he believed in you, as for..."

As for the relationship between Wei Zifu and Wei Qing, at this juncture, there was a sudden explosion. Even if Chen Jiao had thought about such a day, she was at a loss at this moment.

"Liu Nian, let Wei Qing go. He has great ambitions. How can a small official be able to trap him? Well, I will discuss this matter after I go down to court. Help me wash my face with a basin of cold water. When I go up to court, I have to stay awake enough. If I win today, the Dou family will never recover. What does Zhang Tang say?"

"The evidence is conclusive, just like what the empress had speculated before."

"Speculation?" Chen Jiao sneered, "Is it speculation? Don't you know it very well? Bring the cold water up! You don't have to follow me to court for a while, Wei Qing must be in a mess right now, so you go and accompany me Him!"

"Here."

**********

Above the court, Dou's family, just as Chen Jiao expected, accused her one by one of controlling the government, falsely preaching the holy will, being disrespectful and filial to the empress dowager, and not worthy of being the wife of the emperor and the mother of the world.

In the past, it was the empress dowager and the empress dowager who hung the curtains. Now the empress dowager is not feeling well, so the empress dowager sits where the empress dowager used to sit, and Chen Jiao is sitting where the empress dowager Wang Zhi sits on weekdays. s position.Watching Dou's family play one by one, Chen Jiao just felt amused for a while.Her mother is called Dou Taizhu. Although she has only let others call her Princess Guantao after she mentioned it these years, this does not mean that the title "Dou Taizhu" has disappeared. I am afraid that now, when others mention Liu Whoring, still think of "Mr. Dou".In truth, Dou's family is still her mother's family.However, when she is a queen, she is being blamed by her mother's Dou family. Thinking about it, it's really ironic!

"I have already heard the crimes of the so-called queen counted by the uncles and ministers just now, but since it is the queen's fault, then I might as well listen to the queen's statement. Queen, do you have anything to defend yourself?" The emperor in the court hall couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, as if he just wanted to find out the truth.

Chen Jiao remained calm and looked at Wang Yan on the other side: "Does the queen mother believe what they say?"

This question is quite difficult for Wang Zhi.She knew everything about Chen Jiao's actions. At this time, the Dou family was attacking Chen Jiao, saying that it was a lie that she didn't feel happy in her heart.

Chen Jiao's ability, she has learned a little bit in the past few days. When she was the queen, there was the empress dowager Dou Yifang, and she was controlled by her everywhere, and every step was like walking on eggshells.But now, she is also the queen, how can she, Chen Jiao, be so willful?How can one not be afraid of the power of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, and be a veritable mistress of the Han Palace?She Xiao has thought about things for so many years, but Yu Chen Jiao is so insignificant. This hatred is hard for her to appease.

"According to Ai's family..." Without Dou Yifang, her words "Ai's family" are taken for granted and justified.

"It's true that the queen is wrong, but what the queen does is for the sake of the emperor and the big man, so it's understandable."

This is to acquiesce that every accusation of the Dou family against the queen is true.

Chen Jiao had long guessed that Wang Zhi could not stand on her side. When this woman was just an adult, under the auspices of her mother Zang Er, she married into an ordinary farm family—Jin Wangsun's family. Then she gave birth to her eldest daughter, Jin Su.Later, she learned from a fortune-teller that Wang Zhi was destined to be rich and powerful, so she entered the uterus of the crown prince and became Liu Qi's beauty. Later, she also took her own sister into the womb of the crown prince.It's a pity that Empress Bo is incompetent, but it doesn't mean that Empress Dowager Dou is a simple character. For so many years, with Dou Yifang suppressing her, whether Wang Zhi's empress or queen dowager, they are all useless. Now, she naturally wants to take this opportunity to suppress Chen Jiao, consolidate your position.

Chen Jiao can't fall now.A few days ago, she saw very clearly that the triple identity of the daughter of Tangyi Hou Chenwu and the eldest princess, the current empress, and the granddaughter of the empress dowager was her biggest backer. Time, the prestige she established among the courtiers, Wang Zhi knew that if Liu Che supported Tian Fu, she would worry about those old officials talking about it, saying that the emperor raised a virtuous person as a relative, but if Chen Jiao did these things...

Even if the court is full of civil and military discussions, according to the current situation, the account will still be settled on the Dou family in the end, but the Dou family... can no longer tolerate Chen Jiao, the queen with her elbows out.When Chen Jiao has no use value, if she continues to follow the trend and abolishes Chen Jiao as the queen, even if the Dou family sends another person here, it will only be like Wei Zifu who has no power, no power and no backer, and it is easy to turn against her.

"The queen mother taught me that there is indeed something wrong with the concubines. However, what you Lord Dou accused just now is nonsense. Before your majesty left, he handed over the former court and the harem to the concubines. What the concubines did, every day One, every one, is to live up to His Majesty's entrustment. The empress dowager suddenly had an eye disease. She can walk on her own even with the help of others. She said that although her eyes are blurred, it is no longer dark. It is difficult to distinguish objects, but it is not a problem to see whether there are objects. But on the second day after His Majesty left, Mrs. The Empress Dowager suffered a sudden eye disease. May I ask, this happened by such a coincidence, how can people not suspect that someone secretly tampered with it? Let people look at the Changle Palace and examine the people who enter and exit to check whether there is any doubt in it , Has anyone secretly attacked the Empress Dowager!"

"Then dare to ask the empress, have you found anything?"

"That's natural." Chen Jiao came prepared a long time ago. She walked in front of the emperor and stood in the center of the hall, her long skirt dragging on the ground, her back straight, "I request your Majesty to send someone to the Jiaofang Hall Get the bamboo slips that record the Empress Dowager’s condition. The truth is not difficult to find out. The concubine questioned all the imperial doctors who treated the Empress Dowager separately, and compared all their confessions one by one. At the same time, When the concubines started their investigation, they ordered people to move all the case files in the Imperial Physician’s Order to Jiaofang Hall, where they were strictly guarded so that no one could tamper with them. The imperial doctor’s confession was compared with the case files of each of their visits. , all the confessions are correct."

Hearing that Chen Jiao said that the confession was correct, Liu Che secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh? Then what is the truth that the Queen found out?"

"The Empress Dowager didn't have a sudden eye disease." Chen Jiao said loudly, "In fact, the Empress Dowager's eyes have been deteriorating all the time, but she knows very well that once she falls, her unworthy descendants will do something wrong Come on. So, she has been struggling, her eyes can only see vague outlines of objects, but she keeps walking back and forth in her Changle Palace every day, remembering every pattern of Changle Palace in her heart , Even without the support of the palace servants, she can still walk freely. She asked the imperial physician to hide her real illness and hide her real situation from everyone, just because she was afraid that she would collapse, some people would do whatever she wanted, or if she collapsed, her descendants would be incompetent. Bring on yourself!"

The "some people" that Chen Jiao said, the people above the court could almost understand at once, that this refers to the group of people from the Dou family.

Chen Jiao had a look of regret: "Grandma's painstaking efforts were ruined by uncles like this, Gu really feels sorry for Grandmother!"

She said lonely.Not a concubine, nor my palace.

I don't need concubines because I didn't say this to the emperor; I don't need my palace because the people in the Dou family are more or less related to her.Gu, lowered his posture, but still did not lose his dignity.

"I have the guts to ask the Empress Dowager, why did I want to visit the Empress Dowager yesterday, but was still blocked by Wei Qing outside the Changle Palace?"

Chen Jiao glanced at Dou Pengzu who was asking the question. She originally wanted to let Dou Yifang know the news of King Liang's death through Dou Pengzu, but she changed her mind because she was afraid that Liu Fei would be involved.

"Master Dou Pengzu's words are very reasonable. I think you ministers also think so! Then you know that the empress dowager was seriously ill last night and was in a coma for a long time! Speaking of which, I remember that Lord Dou Pengzu was ordered to search the Tangyi Marquis When I was in the mansion, I was ordered by the Empress Dowager, and Lord Dou is also trusted by the Empress Dowager, so does Lord Dou know why the Empress Dowager fainted last night?"

Chen Jiao deliberately brought up the old incident of Dou Pengzu's search of Tangyihou's mansion.

Dou Pengzu naturally understood the implication of Chen Jiao's words, and his expression suddenly became more respectful: "I ask the empress for advice."

"Your Majesty and Gu are worried about the health of the imperial grandmother, and they painstakingly conceal the news from King Liang. They want to wait until her health is better, and the truth of King Liang's death will be found out before telling the imperial grandmother. But someone sneaked into the imperial grandmother's bedroom and used Liang Wang's The news of the death stimulated her, causing her to go into a coma, and her life was almost in danger! Yes, the imperial grandmother's eye disease was indeed not sudden, but it did worsen that morning, and since that day, the imperial doctor has been treating her. "Chen Jiao paused, and continued, "Fortunately, the imperial grandmother is fine now, but in the next few days, she still needs to recuperate. As for the culprit, Wei Zifu, His Majesty has also issued an order to abolish her. Her wife, because she was also the one who served the emperor's grandmother, was reduced to a beauty."

Chen Jiao knelt in the center of the court hall: "Your Majesty, this charge of disrespect and filial piety to the Empress Dowager is not recognized by my concubine!"

Liu Che got up from the table, walked to Chen Jiao, and helped her up: "Queen, get up, I think, maybe you have misunderstood you, so many crimes were charged on you, and the rest A few, you also explain to the ministers one by one, what do you think?"

"The concubine listens to His Majesty."

The author has something to say: Regarding some of Chen Jiao's self-proclaimed settings, let's take a look:

Gu: There is no specific occasion, but it refers to "I", which is a little more formal and majestic than "I", but also a little more distant.

Bengong: The harem, court hall, used to speak to people who are lower than oneself.

Concubine: Only in the harem, used in front of the emperor [in fact, it is to give Liu Che face so he calls himself a concubine].

Courtiers and concubines: occasions where officials such as the court are present.
