The Queen Dressed as Lin's Sister

The door opened with a bang, and King Beijing's team came in from outside. Wang Ziteng immediately asked for Concubine Xiande to join his team.

Concubine Xiande was about to say something when she heard a "slap!" and was slapped on the face by Wang Ziteng. The veins on Wang Ziteng's face were violent, and he gave Concubine Xiande a hard look. Concubine Xiande did not dare to speak anymore. He covered his face, but felt very unwilling.

The team entered the capital mightily, and Wang Ziteng quickly sent someone to bring Concubine Xiande into the palace, and the soldiers at the gate of the city also dispersed.

After everyone came in, the king of Beijing County would naturally not be able to enter the palace. After all, the capital has been taken over by Wang Ziteng, and Wang Ziteng's forces are everywhere.

On the one hand, King Beijing Jing was worried about Wu Zhao's health, and on the other hand, he was also worried about the old concubine and Lin Ruhai. After all, they were all in the capital, so he hurriedly sent people to drive back to the mansion, and sent someone to the Lin mansion to find Lin Ruhai.

They arrived at the gate of Beifu, and before they got out of the car, Wu Zhao saw Lin Ruhai.

Wu Zhao hurriedly got out of the car. Lin Ruhai hadn't seen her daughter for so long, so she naturally missed her so much that she almost burst into tears. She held Wu Zhao to look at her for a long time, and then said, "Okay, okay, it's good to be back..."

The Prince of Beijing also came down. As soon as Lin Ruhai saw the Prince of Beijing, he immediately became anxious and said, "Your Majesty, the old concubine..."

When he said this, the King of Beijing and Wu Zhao felt "thud" in their hearts, and the King of Beijing rushed to ask, "What's wrong with the concubine?"

Lin Ruhai said: "The old concubine was invited into the palace a few days ago, and she hasn't come back yet."

When Wu Zhao heard this, he suddenly understood. No wonder Wang Ziteng chose to save Jia Yuanchun at the gate of the city just now, instead of fighting them to the end. As far as Wang Ziteng's power is concerned, it is so shameless that he will carry it to the end. , is not impossible.

But Wang Ziteng agreed to let them enter Beijing. The biggest reason was that on the one hand, he wanted to maintain his image, and on the other hand, he still had hostages in his hands.

When the news of the emperor's death spread to the capital, Wang Ziteng had already "invited" the old concubine into the palace. The old concubine was in the palace at this time and had not come back.

When the King of Beijing County heard this, his face was suddenly blue and furious, and he clenched his fists violently. Wu Zhao frowned and said, "Young King, now Wang Ziteng still needs to use the old concubine to blackmail the King, so he will not treat you How about the old concubine, the county king can rest assured for now, after all...it's not like we don't have a reason to pinch him."

Hearing what Wu Zhao said, King Beijing reluctantly nodded. Now the situation is very critical, and the capital city is like a big fire pit. Either it will be burned to death, or the phoenix will be nirvana. There is no third choice.

Everyone entered the Beifu, and everyone gathered in the lobby. The acting general and the deputy general Gao were very angry when they heard that Wang Ziteng had kidnapped the old concubine, and said, "Wang Ziteng, that son of a bitch!"

The acting general said: "What should I do? Wang Ziteng was the military governor of the Beijing camp in the past, and now he has been promoted to be the inspector of the capital of the nine provinces. Princess, what should we do?"

Wu Zhao said: "Don't worry, at a time like this, it's most taboo to mess up."

The King of Beijing asked Deputy General Gao and General Dai to check the situation in the capital first. After all, the capital is not just the faction of the Jia family and the Wang family, but also other factions, such as the queen's faction and so on.

The king of Beijing County has just entered Beijing, and he is still not sure what the situation is like. It is better to observe it for a while.

Deputy General Gao and General Dai left Beifu soon. King Beijing County asked Lin Ruhai to rest first, and then brought Wu Zhao into the room to let Wu Zhao rest. It will be dawn in a while, and Wu Zhao is dead. It's still uncomfortable, and I don't know if I can hold it.

Wu Zhao fell asleep in a daze, and not long after, he heard someone knocking on the door. Afraid of disturbing Wu Zhao's rest, the king of Beijing County hurriedly got up and went to open the door. The girl at the door said, "My lord, there are people in the palace , Said to invite the prince to drink tea."

Wu Zhao woke up when she heard the movement. She was already a light sleeper. Although she had a headache and didn't sleep enough, she didn't feel at ease at this moment, so she got up, just in time to hear the girl talking.

King Beijing only said one sentence: "Understood."

Then he turned and closed the door, and walked back.

Wu Zhao went up to meet him, and saw the king of Beijing County holding something in his hand. He spread his hand, and Wu Zhao took a closer look, and saw that it was a hairpin. Wu Zhao knew this hairpin because the old concubine liked it very much. Wearing it all the time, Wu Zhao also got to know him over time.

This is clearly the hairpin that was taken from the old concubine's head, and now she said that the palace asked him to drink tea, which was clearly a threat.

Wu Zhao reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, let's meet Mr. Wang for a while."

King Bei Jing's face was very gloomy, he nodded, and said, "It's just that Madam is tired."

The two of them changed their clothes, and there was already someone waiting at the door. They were horses and chariots from the palace. Vice-General Gao and General Dai heard that someone was coming from the palace. King Beijing entered the palace together.

But the eunuch said: "The higher-ups have ordered that only the prince and concubine are invited to enter the palace, and no one else is allowed to enter."

Lieutenant General Gao immediately scolded and said, "Above? Who is above? You tell grandpa to listen!?"

The eunuch was frightened by Deputy General Gao, trembling, and dared not speak again, but without the arrogance just now, Wu Zhao smiled and said: "Don't worry, Deputy General Gao, it's just to drink tea and chat, and I'm afraid of him How's it going?"

That face Wu Zhao and King Beijing quickly pedaled, and the carriage started rumbling, and quickly headed to the palace.

The palace was bleak, and it was not the same as usual. There was no one there, even the maids and eunuchs were rare. Wu Zhao and King Beijing got off the carriage and saw a group of soldiers marching forward. One by one, holding on to their long swords, came to "greet" them and "please" them to sit down.

Everyone came to a side hall, there were actually quite a few ministers in the hall, in fact, like the King of Beijing, they were all dissatisfied with the enthronement of the fifth son of the emperor, so please come in for tea if they find fault.

Soon, the sound of "treading" footsteps was heard. Someone came out from the inner hall. It was Wang Ziteng. Wang Ziteng swaggered, with his hands behind his back, walked out slowly, and sat directly on the top seat with a smile on his face. On the next day, someone came out again, but everyone didn't see clearly, because through the gauze curtain, of course it was a woman, and it was undoubtedly Jia Yuanchun.

Concubine Xiande sat behind the gauze curtain, and seemed to want to watch the tea party as well.

Wang Ziteng smiled and apologized to the King of Beijing and Wu Zhao, and said: "The old concubine came to the palace to drink tea. I know that the prince is fighting bloody battles at the border, defending his family and the country. So I don't care about anything else, and I think we are colleagues, so naturally we have to take care of the old concubine, isn't that right? Ask the old concubine to come out quickly."

Immediately, several guards surrounded the old concubine and came out from inside.

When the King of Beijing County saw how noble the old concubine was, she was now like a prisoner with shackles on her hands and feet, and was escorted by many guards. Fortunately, she didn't suffer any injuries, but she only described it as a little haggard.

Seeing the old concubine's appearance, King Bei Jing immediately slapped the table and was about to stand up. The veins on his face burst out. Wu Zhao quickly stretched out his hand to press King Bei Jing's shoulder.

The old concubine came out from inside. Although she looked haggard, she didn't show any fear or anxiety. Instead, she seemed to have seen the world, open and frank.

Wang Ziteng said with a smile: "It's really touching. Wang values ​​family affection the most in his life, and he hates the reunion of mother and child the most. It's really touching."

There were many ministers present, but they dared not speak out when they saw Wang Ziteng's face.

Wu Zhao smiled at this time, Wang Ziteng saw her smile relaxed, and said, "What does Princess Beijing mean? Now you smile more leisurely than me?"

Wu Zhao said indifferently: "Idleness? No, you can't even understand my smile. How do you behave like this? Master Wang, don't you feel inferior?"

Wang Ziteng's face turned pale immediately, he sneered, and said coldly: "It's just that a woman, even if she has two brains, still compares herself to Queen Zetian? She doesn't look like herself. "

Hearing what he said, Wu Zhao was not angry, but quietly took out a piece of paper and said, "If I want to punish you, do I need the wrist of Empress Zetian? This piece of paper is enough."

As she spoke, Wang Ziteng couldn't see clearly when she shook it open. The writing on it was very small, and there was a handprint. It could be vaguely seen that it should be a contract of prostitution, but I don't know who it was.

The concubine Xiande behind the curtain was terrified, because the deed of sale belonged to her!

In order to sneak into the capital, Concubine Xiande sold her body in disguise to bury her father, and sold her body to the merchant's contract of sale.

Concubine Xiande was startled, but quickly calmed down, it was not her name on it at all, so there was no need to be afraid, now that they have heavy soldiers in the palace, many people in the court listen to them, and the rest dare not speak out. There is nothing to be afraid of.

Besides, they still have the old concubine as a hostage, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Wu Zhao smiled and said, "Everyone, take a look, this is a letter of prostitution for a virtuous concubine today!"

When he said this, all the people present were excited, and Wang Ziteng immediately shouted: "Presumptuous!! How dare you humiliate the mother of the country like this?!"

Wu Zhao said: "Mother of the country? What kind of mother of the country is Concubine Xiande? Your lord may wish to have someone come over to check whether the fingerprints on it are exactly the same as Concubine Xiande's. How can Concubine Xiande make sophistry?!"

Everyone hurriedly looked at it, and sure enough, there was a handprint on the deed of sale, which said that the father was buried by selling himself, but the signature was "Cui'er", not the name of Concubine Xiande.

Concubine Xiande couldn't help but cursed loudly: "Presumptuous, you..."

Before she finished speaking, Wu Zhao smiled and said: "The handprint on this is completely consistent with that of Concubine Xiande. If you don't believe me, you can have someone verify it. Then there is a problem now. The person sitting in the hall now, Mr. Wang Is this 'Mother of the Nation' in the picture the imperial concubine herself?"

The crowd was once again clamoring, Concubine Xiande's face turned ugly, Wang Ziteng didn't know that Concubine Xiande would do such a thing, he immediately panted heavily, his eyeballs could not wait to protrude, they were full of bloodshot eyes.

Wu Zhao said coldly: "The handprints match, either the mother of the country is a village woman pretending to be, or she has sold herself as a concubine and insulted the royal family. Let me ask, how can a village woman or a merchant's concubine who has already been choleraed by the royal family behave dignifiedly?" What about the mother of the country? How can her son be the king of a country? If it spreads out, I’m afraid the world will laugh it off!"

When Wu Zhao said this, the hall suddenly boiled, and it could not calm down for a long time. Wu Zhao had obviously blocked the two paths of Concubine Xiande, because the fingerprints must match, so Concubine Xiande did not admit to being a concubine, then she is The fake one is not the real Concubine Xiande, but the little concubine Cui Er. If Concubine Xiande admits that she is a concubine for merchants, it will be a scandal, and her son will definitely not be able to be the emperor again.

Wang Ziteng's expression turned extremely ferocious, he turned his head, and stared at Concubine Xiande fiercely.

The king of Beijing County stood up at this time, smiled very easy-going, and said: "Of course, we entered the palace today just for the sake of family affairs, and we won't do things like Mr. Wang. Xiao Wang uses this piece of paper , changing the concubine out of the palace, presumably Lord Wang and Concubine Xiande would not refuse, right?"

Wang Ziteng panted heavily. The old concubine was the card in his hand and he must not lose it. He had already taken a step back and let the king of Beijing County go to Beijing. If you keep retreating, you will only fail in the end.

Wang Ziteng's face was extremely gloomy, as if he wanted to abandon Jia Yuanchun, even if Raja Yuanchun stepped down, Wang Ziteng would still have the fifth son in his hand, at most the queen mother would be gone.

Wang Ziteng's face became more and more ferocious, as if he was making a decision, and he didn't want to follow the heart of King Beijing, but could Jia Yuanchun not understand?I am about to be abandoned.

Jia Yuanchun immediately stood up and said loudly, "Okay, exchange!"

As soon as she spoke, Wang Ziteng stood up and said, "No!"

Jia Yuanchun immediately said: "Lord Wang! How dare you offend me? The concubine is just a guest in the palace, and now she has finished speaking, why don't you invite the concubine to go back to the mansion with the prince of Beijing?"

Wang Ziteng wants to abandon Jia Yuanchun, Jia Yuanchun wants to protect himself and become the queen mother, of course he will agree to compromise, the two of them immediately stared at each other, Wang Ziteng was unwilling, but Jia Yuanchun had a son as a shield, Wang Ziteng couldn't face it she.

Wu Zhao smiled and said: "It's still the virtuous concubine who has good eyesight. It's not a big deal at all. Let's settle it peacefully. The concubine is getting old, and the palace is never the home. Now we're leaving." , After leaving the palace, this piece of paper will be sent over, and whether it will be cremated or announced to the world at that time will depend entirely on the imperial concubine's pleasure."

Concubine Xiande's face is also very grim, but there is no way, she needs to protect herself, she knows that what Wang Ziteng needs is her son, and she knows better that she wants to be the queen mother, not a stepping stone.

Concubine Xiande held back her anger and said: "Come here, send the King of Beijing and others... out of the palace."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't dare not listen. Immediately, several guards came over and untied the shackles on the old concubine. King Beijing Jing hurried over to help the old concubine. Everyone got into the carriage immediately and left the palace.

Immediately, Wang Ziteng became furious, overturned the table violently, and shouted: "It's not enough to succeed, it's more than failure!! You are letting the tiger go back to the mountain! Let the tiger go back to the mountain! One day, sooner or later, you will kill everyone!"

Concubine Xiande smiled coldly, and said in a strange way: "My lord, don't you think that I don't know your thoughts and kill everyone? You just want to abandon this palace and seek your own glory and wealth! If I don't allow me to be the queen mother, we will die, and no one will be able to think about it. Don't you know the weight of your royal family?!"

Concubine Xiande said that's all, snorted coldly, flicked her sleeves and left, the angry Prince Teng roared loudly, drew out his sword, and split the side hall into a mess.

When everyone got into the carriage, King Bei Jing hurriedly said, "Mother, are you alright?"

The old concubine said: "It's okay, don't worry, Wang Ziteng dare not do anything."

The status of the old concubine was on the line, if he really did something to the old concubine, the officials would definitely find an excuse, so the old concubine was just a little haggard, nothing more.

There was a crowd of people at the gate of the Beifu. Seeing that King Jingjing and Wu Zhao brought the old concubine out safely, they breathed a sigh of relief, and they all rushed up to welcome them into the mansion.

Vice-General Gao said: "The situation is critical now. Wang Ziteng has detained many officials who are not convinced. The city is full of their soldiers. The opposing factions dare not make a sound."

The general said: "Now the only faction that can fight against them is Prince Zhongshun's faction. It's just that Prince Zhongshun's side is too calm, and there is no reply yet. What should we do!"

The Prince of Beijing knew very well the character of Prince Zhongshun. After all, he had known him for two lifetimes. Prince Zhongshun would not do things that he was not sure of. Like King Jingjun, there is also the possibility of enthroning, so it seems impossible to win over Prince Zhongshun.

Seeing that they were in a hurry, Wu Zhao was very leisurely, and said, "You have forgotten the greatest chance of winning. There is another faction that has never surrendered to Wang Ziteng, and will definitely not surrender to Wang Ziteng."

Lieutenant General Gao immediately said, "Who?"

Hearing what she said, King Beijing seemed to wake up immediately. The two of them glanced at each other and smiled at each other, which stunned everyone. They didn't know what kind of big man they were.
