The majestic sister-in-law of the Red Chamber

Facing the very simple question of the emperor, Situ Meng was rarely silent.

"What? Is there no suitable place?" The emperor asked with some differences.

"No, it's not!" Situ Meng shook his head and said, "I was just thinking, instead of hiding them in a place we think is hidden, it's safer to keep them by our side! Since they all have such thoughts, then If we hide all the princes in advance, there is no guarantee that those who have the heart of a squirrel will not have other crooked ideas. Moreover, if I am not with Xiaotian and me, to be honest, I have no way to guarantee their safety!

After all, people's hearts are separated from each other, who knows if there are any nails they planted around us, after all, we just focused on Situ Yong and certain families before, and we didn't find that the families of Concubine Rong and Concubine Shu had any connection with them After that, the monitoring and investigation of them was reduced.

If they really have that kind of intention, then they must have placed enough eyeliner around the little princes. I'm afraid they will know as soon as there is a move to divert people from our side!This will not only be detrimental to the safety of the princes, it may also affect all our future plans!

Taking a step back, it would be even more inappropriate if none of the princes were present at this filial ceremony!After all, the empress dowager is their real grandmother!At that time, these will become an excuse for their rebellion. It is better to avoid such a thing of giving people a handle! "

Situ Meng's worries are not unreasonable. Although history is written by the victors, it is impossible for them to kill all the people present. After all, there are many neutral families and ministers present. Rumors that the princes were not filial were spreading, which was very bad. After hearing this, the emperor was at a loss as to what to do, and was in a dilemma for a while.

The day of filial piety is coming soon, even if the emperor wants to make some adjustments, the time is not allowed, so he can only grit his teeth and agree with Situ Meng's suggestion to keep him in the palace. It's just that he was still worried and asked the head manager to change the seating arrangement on the day of the banquet.

Directly adjusted the positions of the princes and princesses in the palace to the vicinity of the emperor's throne. After all, if there was confusion, the emperor felt that it would be safer to bring them with him than to hide them in other places in the palace. Some.

Time flies by in the tension, and the day of filial piety arrives in the blink of an eye.

Early in the morning, Situ Meng and Lin Tian both put on heavy court clothes, and came to the palace with solemn faces.After entering the palace, Lin Tian and Situ Meng split up and went to see the emperor and empress respectively.The task of the two of them today is to protect the safety of the emperor and empress in the chaos. As for those who conspire to rebel, that is the task of the Royal Forest Army and the Shadow Troops.

"My ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor!" Situ Meng saluted the emperor respectfully, but before the emperor said he was dead, the voices of children chattered around him.

"Uncle Fifteen, Uncle Fifteen, why are you here so late! We've been waiting for you for a long time! Would you like to play with us?"

"Uncle Fifteen, what have you been up to lately? We miss you very much! The story of Journey to the West you told us last time has not been finished yet. What happened to Monkey King?"

A few little princes, Situ Meng, ran over quickly, surrounded him, and kept asking questions, without any restraint.

"Ahem..." The emperor coughed lightly twice, but those little fellows didn't react at all, and they hugged Situ Meng one by one, unwilling to let go.

"You guys, that's enough! The emperor's uncle just came, you should let the emperor rest for a while and drink some water!" The little prince looked like a little adult, pointing at the other children and criticizing them solemnly.

"Brother Prince, you don't want to know what happened to Monkey King and his group? What kind of monsters did you encounter?" The youngest prince blinked his big watery eyes and looked at the prince innocently.

"Ahem!" The prince put on a stern face, cleared his throat like the emperor, and said solemnly: "Have you all forgotten what day it is today! You know, today is the day when the emperor's grandmother gave her filial piety. We all still have a couple of serious things to do! You guys stop arguing, and after the banquet is over, let's go find Uncle Fifteen together!"

"Yeah, Brother Prince is right! But, I will follow Uncle Fifteen and stare at him for a while, otherwise he will be like last time, with a wrong eye, he can't find anyone when he runs away!"

As the youngest prince said, he hugged Situ Meng's thigh with all his strength, with a cute look that would never let go. Seeing that Situ Meng's heart softened, he simply hugged him up and said:

"Then you will stay with Uncle Huang all the time tonight, no matter what happens, you can't leave, you know? After the matter is over, Uncle Huang will tell you a story tonight, okay?"

"That's great, Uncle Huang is the best! What..." the little guy said, and kissed Situ Meng's face, which almost melted his heart.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, and it's time for the banquet!" The chief executive's voice came from the entrance of the hall.

"Let's go! Have a good time with these ghosts and monsters! I hope that after today, the people in the world can return to a truly clear sky!"

After the emperor finished speaking, he took the lead to walk out, and the little prince followed closely behind the emperor and walked out. Although he was not very old, he could not resist the tense and oppressive atmosphere in the court these days. Feel the same.

The emperor and Situ Meng led the princes into the hall and walked up to the top throne. Just as the ministers were about to kneel down to salute, Situ Yong, who had endured for a long time, jumped out impatiently.

"Situ Qing, it's such a critical moment for the survival of the country! You don't have a good discussion about how to keep the land and land that your ancestors worked so hard to build, but you still have the mind to hold a filial banquet here! You are not afraid of the king with a different surname. Take advantage of a few opportunities to fight directly and break the capital? Are you worthy of the ancestors of our Situ family?"

Situ Yong jumped out directly, pointing his finger at the emperor's nose and yelling, as if he wanted to vent all the dissatisfaction he had accumulated in his heart for so many years at once.

Accompanied by Situ Yong's yelling, a team of well-trained and well-armed soldiers rushed in quickly, enclosing the entire hall in the blink of an eye, and at the same time, all weapons and blades were pointed at the emperor and Situ Meng them.

"Situ Yong, shut up! Who gave you the guts to yell at the emperor! What are you trying to do? Are you rebelling against me?" Situ Meng angrily snapped.

"Hmph! Rebellion? Rebellion? What a big hat! Situ Meng, don't shout here, you just relied on the fact that you were born in the same mother as Situ Qing, and you just point fingers at us brothers all day long." What? What kind of thing are you! I really thought you would be two sizes older than Wang Ba by calling you the Prince of Loyalty and Obedience!"

Situ Yong gave Situ Meng a disdainful look, and continued: "This king is also a member of the Situ family. Now that the country is in crisis, this throne is of course for the capable! He, Situ Qing, disregarded the opposition of the civil and military courts and forcibly withdrew the domain , Now it’s all right, they were all beaten to the door by the king of a different surname, and our Situ family’s world will be lost! But he can’t do anything, if he doesn’t abdicate to let the virtuous, when will he wait?”

"Situ Yong, you are rebellious and outrageous! Are you going to force the palace to rebel!" The emperor's officials jumped out angrily and yelled at Situ Yong.

"Hehehehe... yes! I just forced the palace to rebel, so what! Situ Qing, open your eyes and take a good look to see how many civil and military men in the Manchu Dynasty are still on your side! "

Situ Yong laughed wildly, looked at the emperor and Situ Meng arrogantly, and said arrogantly: "You are already a lonely family, and you have betrayed your relatives! Ladies and gentlemen, don't you think so?"

"Your Majesty, what Prince An said is correct, in order to preserve the land and land of the Dayong Dynasty, I would trouble you to sign this edict for the throne of Zen!" Zhen Yingjia came out from behind Situ Yong, holding an imperial edict, persuading him.

"Yes, yes! You obediently wrote the imperial edict for this Zen position, and I can still save your life, otherwise, today next year will be your death day!" Situ Yong's expression was already showing a bit of madness, She has completely ignored the emperor and Situ Meng, and even changed her name to Zhen.

The emperor and Situ Meng didn't speak, but just watched Situ Yong's performance there indifferently, but the crown prince and the little princes were frightened, and they all hid behind Situ Meng and dared not come out.

"Situ Qing, it's come to this point, why are you holding on! It's not that we insist on forcing you, it's you who pushed yourself to where you are today!"

Zhen Yingjia said coldly: "It is right for the aristocratic family and the emperor to rule the world together, but Situ Qing, you insist on going your own way. Not only do you monopolize the power, but you even make trouble with us aristocratic nobles for the sake of some untouchables all day long! This is not a joke of slipping the world!" Is it? So, we can only change to a more suitable person for this position!"

"Huh!" The emperor snorted coldly, completely ignoring Situ Yong who was like a mad dog and Zhen Yingjia who was like a poisonous snake. Honorable ones, asked lightly:

"What about you? Are you going to conspire with Situ Yong too? Or in other words, all of you are involved in today's rebellion?"

"Your Majesty, we have no choice but to do so! After all, what you did before really hurt our hearts! We have worked hard all our lives for this Dayong Dynasty, but in the end we were confiscated by Prince Zhongshun because of some trivial matters. The genocide is extinct..."

"Huh! You sanctimonious hypocrites, trivial matters of the untouchables? Those so-called trivial matters of yours are usury to persecute the people's families, monopolize official salt, sell private salt at high prices, so that the people have no salt to eat, sell weapons to the Huns, let them Entering the customs, burning, killing and looting the people...

You jackals in human skins, all of you are full of benevolence and morality, but you are actually the ones who sucked the flesh and blood of the people and fattened themselves.If you dare to make trouble now, you really should kill the Nine Clans! "A young official shouted and rushed out, pointing at the noses of Situ Yong and the nobles of the family behind him and cursed.

"Kill him! Kill him!" Situ Yong pointed at the young official and ordered towards the soldiers behind him.

The soldier raised the knife and saw that the young official was about to die under the knife. A silver rope was wrapped around his waist in an instant, pulling him away from the knife. Although his life was saved, the knife still cut His arm was injured, and blood was splattered all over the place.

"Come on, give it all to me! Kill Situ Qing, kill Situ Meng, kill those little bastards! If you don't leave any of them, let me kill them all!" Situ Yong roared like crazy, his eyes It's all red.

"Boom, boom..." Just as Situ Yong was shouting, another large group of people rushed in from outside. These people were wearing the armor of the Imperial Forest Army. Not only were their weapons and clothes covered with blood, but they were also wounded. , it can be seen that it has experienced a fierce battle.

"My servant came too late to rescue me, and I still hope the emperor will make amends!" said the leading general, kneeling in front of the emperor on one knee.

"It's okay, the time is just right! Let's take down these rebellious officials and thieves first!" The emperor waved his hand and said.

"Yes!"
