The majestic sister-in-law of the Red Chamber

Situ Meng has also completely calmed down at this moment, looked at the emperor, and said: "Brother, I will go back first, the spies and eyes and ears of Nan'an County and Xining County Prince's Mansion must be dealt with as soon as possible, and they must not be allowed to have any more activities. It's time! After a while, the news of the Empress Dowager Bintian will be announced, and all the dignified princes and nobles will come to the palace to guard the spirit of the Empress Dowager, and then it may be the best time for those people to make trouble!"

Having said this, Situ Meng showed a bloodthirsty ferocity on his face, and said in a low voice: "Since they are so impatient, it's time to close the net! I have been looking forward to this day for a long time! If we don't completely eliminate Get rid of these scumbags, and the people of the Dayong Dynasty will not have a good day!"

The emperor lightly patted Situ Meng on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "The safety of the capital is entrusted to you for the time being. The admirals of the Nine Gates and the Imperial Army have already ordered them to follow your orders. They must be dispatched. To ensure the stability and harmony of the entire capital, we must not let those guys take advantage of the loopholes!"

"Brother Huang, don't worry, these things are all on my shoulders! But, I'm afraid the big battle after this must be arranged quickly! I think the king of Nan'an and the king of Xining have definitely made up their minds to rebel against each other this time. There is no room for maneuver!

But although we have prepared a lot before, we are not ready to start the war after all, and their sudden attack this time can be regarded as catching us by surprise.Moreover, although the current generals have been carefully screened by the shadow people, it is also based on the fact that several kings with different surnames and even the Zhen family and the Gali lineage, the person who sells weapons behind the scenes is still unknown. No one was found out!

Since he was able to obtain so many so-called scrap weapons for modification and processing, then I think he definitely controls a lot of forces in the army, but he doesn't know who they are!Moreover, there is not so much time for us to investigate slowly!

Perhaps, this time, the person behind the scenes was pushed too hard by our pursuit! "

Having said this, Situ Meng frowned involuntarily. This feeling of not being able to control everything still made him very unhappy.

"Hmph! The left and right are just those government offices. They use extraordinary measures at all times. If something goes wrong, you can directly lead people to put them under house arrest for the time being! By the way, it's okay to cry for the empress dowager this time." Raise the standards a bit, so that officials above the fifth rank in the court and all men with titles must enter the palace to cry. By the way, especially Jia Jing from the Ningguo Mansion, don’t think that he is a monk If you have a name, you can really stay out of it!

Although there is no clear evidence yet, he was an important adviser to the former prince back then. Although there was no real evidence that he participated in the former prince's rebellion, this person is definitely not ordinary!Among so many noble children, he is one of the rare ones who obtained fame entirely by his own ability. This person must not be underestimated!

I even have a vague premonition that this person is definitely involved in this incident, but I don't know what role he is playing in it!Or, he is..."

Speaking of this, the emperor suddenly fell silent, not knowing what he remembered.

"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely send someone to stare at him! I'm going now. Although you are in the palace, brother, you must pay attention to safety! You must keep those priests with you at all times. This time Let so many officials enter the palace to cry, maybe there will be killers among them!

After all, they have already prepared everything, and the chances of assassinating you in a desperate attempt are very high!Everything has to be done with care!Otherwise, if something goes wrong with you, Brother Huang, at this critical juncture, the whole court will lose its backbone completely, and the world will really be in chaos!

How about I dispatch two teams of Death Squad members to protect the safety of Brother Huang? "Situ Meng said with some worry.

"No need, Xiao Shiwu, you don't need to underestimate the priests in the palace. They are all masters in the world, and their kung fu is not much worse than yours, let alone those in the shadow army. Besides, now is the time when you need them the most, pull out those nails as soon as possible, I don't want any movement in the capital to be clearly grasped by those old guys, the big battle is just around the corner, I would rather kill by mistake , we can’t let it go, we have to be more careful about everything!”

The emperor looked at Situ Meng, and said earnestly and earnestly: "No matter what I say, I'm in this deep palace, and it's not easy for them to assassinate you! But you, don't just rely on your own skill and don't care at all. You know, sometimes you don’t need to use force to kill a person. Poisoning, traps, or the betrayal and sneak attack of people around you can’t be ignored! You must be careful! The only person I can trust most now is you !"

"Brother, don't worry! Outside matters, I'll be with you!" Situ Meng said, and suddenly stepped forward to hug the emperor, then quickly turned around and strode away.

Not long after Situ Meng left the palace, the death knell sounded in the palace, and everyone in the capital could hear it clearly.

"49 rings, this is the highest level of mourning! Is it the emperor, the empress, or the emperor's queen?" Everyone in the middle and upper reaches of the capital listened to it When the bell of the funeral was announced, everyone rushed home in a hurry.

Entertainment venues such as Bada Hutong and Xiyuanzi gritted their teeth when they heard the bell, but they had no choice but to close their doors quickly. The sound of the death knell meant that they would close their doors soon after they started business. Good luck, and this time, let's say at least one year, more than three years!

Thinking of the long days without a source of income, everyone's faces are full of embarrassment, and they almost have nothing to love.

"Have you heard? It's the Empress Dowager Bintian! And it's not a normal death, it is said that she was killed by that little daughter-in-law!"

"Let me just say, Miss Lin's father was killed before she was born, and her mother was killed at a young age. It is the fate of the lone star of Tiansha! I don't think that the marriage contract with Prince Zhongshun was announced just now, Just kill the emperor? Now the wedding is going to be held, and the empress dowager is gone, I really don’t know what the royal family thinks, such a woman dares to marry into the family, it’s a crime!"

"Yes, yes! I also heard that in order to hold the wedding ceremony for Prince Zhongshun, both the House of Internal Affairs and the Harem have been busy. I heard that the warehouses of the House of Internal Affairs are half empty due to the arrangement of new houses. Those concubines in the Harem The concubine's case has not been given...

I don't know what kind of enchantment this Miss Lin family used, not to mention turning Prince Zhongshun's fans around, even the emperor and the empress dote on her so much, it's a ghost! "

"Who says no? Besides, that woman is very mysterious. It is said that in public, she either wears a cap or wears a light veil. In short, few people have seen her true face. ! Tell me, does she have a ghost in her heart to do this!"

"That's right, didn't the Empress Dowager give Prince Zhongshun two side concubines before? It is said that she deliberately ran to meet the two before the marriage, and one of the two women died suddenly, and the other now But she became the wife of Prince Zhongshun's mansion chief Shi, you say it's evil or not? What Prince Zhongshun suppressed his wife and concubines, I think it was all directed by this woman!"

In the capital, not only the common people are unfavorable to Lin Tian, ​​and rumors against her are all over the concubine, but even many important officials of the royal family and the court, when they entered the palace to guard the spirit, openly raised the same question in front of the empress dowager's spiritual throne. Even, many radical old ministers asked the emperor to annul the marriage contract between Prince Zhongshun and the Lin family, and even demanded that Lin Tian, ​​the witch, be executed.

The whole article is about people, but they can't conceal their vicious nature. These literati and inkmen are actually much more unbearable in their hearts than those shrews who scold the street. Anyone who hinders or destroys their interests will stand on the side of the so-called Take the moral high ground, use the most vicious means to retaliate and eradicate.

The emperor stood in front of the mourning hall with a serious face, watching them perform like clowns one by one, his heart became more and more determined about the idea of ​​cleaning up the court hall long ago.

At this moment, he even had a bit of determination and free and easy, secretly said: "Although what the father said is right, if you want to be a good emperor, you must balance all aspects of power!"However, if an emperor wants to do something for the people, and wants the people under his rule to be fed and clothed, but because he hurt the nobles of the family and gained benefits, he can only shrink back under their persecution, then when What is the meaning of this emperor!

Maybe, I'm really not suitable to be a good emperor who can be admired by courtiers like a father, a good emperor whom everyone respects!However, since I have taken this position, this country will go on according to my ideas!Since these aristocrats hinder the development of the country, let them all disappear! '

"Your Majesty, this time the Empress Dowager fell into a coma for no reason, and then she vomited blood and died. The imperial physicians also said that she was not poisoned, nor did she appear to have any other symptoms. This must be a curse, it must be! Kang Jian, but the day when Prince Zhongshun will definitely get married, the Empress Dowager knows that it is such an inexplicable day, this is definitely not a coincidence!

Your majesty, how can such a woman marry into the royal family, she will not only bring disaster to the royal family, but even the whole country, your majesty!You must use her blood to sacrifice to the heavens, so that you can ask for forgiveness from the heavens..." An old official rushed to the emperor in tears, and said the most vicious words with his nose and tears.

"Your Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is right. This young lady of the Lin family is definitely the reincarnation of an evildoer! She doesn't even know what three obediences and four virtues are, and she doesn't even know what sorcery she used to control Prince Zhongshun. Such a monster must not be left behind." Ah! Your Majesty..."

Facing these people, the emperor had no desire to open his mouth at all. He asked the eunuch to read out the imperial decree he had written before, and then completely ignored the ministers who kept shouting. He just let the Ministry of Internal Affairs arrange for them to start crying in batches. , and ordered the Imperial Forest Army to completely seal the palace from this moment on, only allowed to enter, not allowed to exit.
