[Red House] Lixian

Chapter 104 Chaos

Tong Yuan Sect has turned from light to dark over the years, recruiting followers in secret.At this time, Huang Bao raised his arms and shouted, and tens of thousands of believers surrounded Jinling City.Even the believers rioted from within. If it weren't for the residences of Jia's and other officials and eunuchs close together and guarded by family soldiers, they might be rushed to the Supreme Emperor by the believers in an instant.

But even so, the Supreme Emperor couldn't help worrying.

"Fortunately, I moved to Jia's house. If I were in Zhen's house, wouldn't I have died long ago?"

Many of the mob of believers came from the Zhen family. Although the old lady of the Zhen family and others came to plead guilty afterwards, the trust of the Supreme Emperor in the Zhen family dropped to freezing point.

Don't forget, the relationship between the Fifth Prince and Tong Yuanjiao was too close back then.

The Supreme Emperor thought about the lie that Wei Qian told.A lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth, especially the pig teammates on the Fifth Prince's side are holding back.The Supreme Emperor needs to think about the possible relationship between his fifth child, the Zhen family and Tongyuanjiao.

"Speaking of which, if I hadn't remembered Jia Daishan and came to Jia's mansion to take refuge temporarily, I'm afraid I would have escaped." I couldn't help but miss my old man even more.

Invite Jia Amnesty: "How is the situation in the city now?"

Jia Amnesty was sweating profusely. He was fine as a favorite, but if he was really doing something, he was really not good.Fortunately, General Li Teng was standing in front this time.

"The old general led people to guard Jinling, and he has already imprisoned the followers of the Tongyuan religion in the city. As for outside the city..." Jia She hesitated: "The mob outside besieged the city. Although there is no serious danger, they have already asked the palace for help."

"Where are there reinforcements over there in the palace?" The Supreme Emperor frowned, "Even if the Emperor is missing, even if Concubine Ning turns out to be out of the sky, can she still create tens of thousands of troops out of thin air?"

Jia She looked embarrassed, with the Supreme Emperor on one side and his niece on the other.It is said that his nephew is like his uncle, and he still has a lot of affection for this niece who often brings him good luck.

The Emperor Taishang also reacted after complaining, and added: "However, this girl is smart enough to cut through the chaos quickly and stabilize the situation. She has a bit of demeanor, but it's a pity that she is not a man."

"Report—" A guard hurriedly ran outside: "The Royal Forest Army of the Palace came to rescue you."

Royal Army?The Supreme Emperor secretly said something was wrong: "This is a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and the palace is in danger!"

But let the Imperial Forest Army go back?It is too late now.

"Let the Imperial Forest Army and Li Teng attack the Tong Yuan Sect rebels first." The Supreme Emperor got up and went out to supervise the battle in person.

"I hope Concubine Ning is not stupid and prepares troops in the palace early."

In the palace, Wei Qian stood in the main hall looking at the map of Jinling, beside the sand table that was just made.

All the ministers around were beating their hearts, staring at the concubine who was looking at the sand table and studying tactics.Just now, Grand Master Mei scolded her for meddling in politics in the harem, and was invited by Liu Baohe to go down and rest.

Liu Baohe held the army in the palace, and made it clear that he supported Wei Qian who was holding the tiger amulet. The others had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

"The Royal Forest Army going to the rescue will inevitably bring the troops of Tongyuan Sect into the palace. General Liu's Huizhou army is a soldier who has fought a hundred battles. To deal with the rabble of Tongyuan Sect, it is impossible to be defeated in the daytime." Wei Qian pointed to the sand table and said. : "The key lies in the three time periods of dusk, midnight and dawn. It is easiest to relax in these three time periods."

"The minister will order you to go down and take turns in two shifts to ensure nighttime defense." Liu Baohe bowed and said, "As for the daytime..."

"Bluff." Wei Qian raised his head and put on his cloak: "People of Tongyuan Sect will not be arrogant enough to think that they can win in the daytime. First hit a wave to shake the morale of the army, and then fight steadily and wait for them to get anxious. A group of mobs, As long as reinforcements come tomorrow, they can all be beaten to death." Wei Qian looked indifferent, and told the ministers: "I don't know the art of war, and I don't care about some shallow women's opinions. Next, I will replace the empress dowager I made a decree with the emperor, ordering you to wait until tomorrow morning. This is our victory, and the next plan can only be handled by your majesty."

Pulling the banner of Situ Yun, Wei Qian turned around and went to the harem, regardless of whether others believed it or not.

Walking out of the main hall, Wei Qian breathed a sigh of relief: "I finally made it through."

"Look at the expressions of these people, it seems that they don't obey the empress." Hongchun said dissatisfied: "Now that the empress holds the military power, how dare they do this!"

"After all, it is difficult for the harem to interfere with the front court." Wei Qian smiled lightly: "Let's go, let's go and appease the big family behind." Wei Qian was stirring up trouble in the front, but the harem must be stable and united by her side.

"It's a pity that Cousin Yuanchun and Concubine Wen are not here, otherwise they will be enough to help me stabilize the harem." At present, Concubine Wu Gui is representing Wu Lao Xiangguo's group of forces, and Jia Yucun, Jia Lian and others in Wei Qian's hands are facing Maimang.I'm afraid there will be some twists and turns in the harem.

Therefore, Wei Qian first went to the imperial concubine to pay her respects.

Concubine Wu's expression was calm: "Sister, don't worry, my sister knows what my sister has to do. No one will oppose my sister when the harem is interrupted. As long as His Majesty returns, everything will be easy to talk about. On the side of the Empress Dowager, my sister needs to go there in person."

"My sister knows." The two only exchanged information, and Wei Qian left immediately.

After Wei Qian left, Baoshu, the female official next to Concubine Wu, couldn't help but said, "Madam, didn't the master tell us to contact the Empress Dowager in the harem to temporarily suppress Concubine Ning? Otherwise, she is the only one, what will we do in the future?"

"Where do you think Concubine Ning got the tiger talisman?" Concubine Wu Gui asked back, "Your Majesty always keeps these things secret, how can outsiders know? Concubine Ning may be telling lies, but she will definitely get in touch with Her Majesty at the moment. To do anything to her is to do harm to her." Your Majesty will take action. If you destroy the overall situation, how can your Majesty be merciless in the future?"

"Besides, the harem cannot interfere in politics. She is so sharp, she is obviously ready to be liquidated in the future. Since she is willing to take risks for the imperial lineage, why should I be so stupid as to add trouble to her? It is my job to appease the harem. The matter. Your Majesty is back, and I have a share of the credit. If there is something unbearable, I will not be guilty."

Concubine Wu Gui understood that her current status could no longer be promoted.The next step is the queen, which queen will give it to her?

"I don't even like the crown prince's ascension to the throne. Only the return of His Majesty is the best situation." Wu Guifei thought to herself, quietly fiddling with Zhu Chai in her hand.

Wei Qian hurried from Wu Guifei's side to the Empress Dowager's Palace.

The female eunuch next to the Empress Dowager was chewing her tongue: "My Lady, I heard that Concubine Ning deliberately transferred the Imperial Forest Army, but left General Liu behind. Then General Liu was promoted by the late Duke Rong, could it be..."

"What do you want to say?" The Empress Dowager was in a bad mood, frowning and said, "But what did you hear?"

"The servant girl heard that this empress and General Liu are in control of the government—"

"What's the use of my palace controlling the government?" Wei Qian stood behind the female prison with a half-smile.

The female prisoner was so frightened that she knelt down quickly.

"You go out first." Wei Qian looked down on this female prisoner who made things difficult for him every day, and came to the empress dowager, and asked with concern: "Is your empress okay? Are you feeling better today?"

"It's much better. What's going on outside?" The queen mother said, "Why did Li Ying say that you interfered with the previous dynasty?"

"Isn't it for His Majesty?" Wei Qian pretended to sigh: "I have already contacted Your Majesty."

"How is the prince?"

The empress dowager cheered up.

"Your Majesty, everything is fine. My concubine's mother personally led people to find him and placed him in Doulao Temple."

Doumo Temple?When the Empress Dowager heard this, her heart settled down: "That is the place where you cultivated secretly when you were young. Master Ling Wan seems to be a master of Taoism. If His Majesty escapes unharmed in the future, you should enshrine Dou Lao Temple as a national temple."

"Forget about the National Temple, as long as you give Doulao Temple a formal seal." Wei Qian said: "But when His Majesty returns at this time, he will be impeached for wrongdoing and other memorials in the future. The influence of the Supreme Emperor is not good. So The two of us decided to simply confirm our lies. Saying that His Majesty deliberately set up a situation is a wise and wise move. In the future, people will also be impeached for recklessness, but as long as you grasp the overall situation, it will be an achievement of Your Majesty."

The Empress Dowager nodded, yes, with this kind of martial arts, even the Supreme Emperor would not be able to talk about abolishing the establishment.

"Then what was the former dynasty fighting for?"

"A wise and mighty emperor is not good news for those ministers." Wei Qian possessed himself and whispered in the empress dowager's ear: "If your majesty bears the stigma, wouldn't it be easier to handle in the future?"

The queen mother narrowed her eyes, and the instinct of fighting in the harem for decades was awakened immediately: "They want to ostracize the emperor?"

"Old Xiangguo Wu has this meaning. After all, since ancient times, the power of the emperor and the power of the prime minister have been turned back and forth."

"Then what about Concubine Wu?"

"The elder sister of the Wu family has a good temper. Just now she made a promise to the concubine that there will be no disputes in the harem. We are sharing difficulties at this moment to welcome the return of the emperor."

"Okay, both of you are very good." The queen mother patted Wei Qian's hand: "If you were not here, with my body, I am afraid that after hearing the news, I would be in chaos and be manipulated by those courtiers." The queen mother's phoenix eyes flashed Guo Hanguang: "At that time, I'm afraid I will really follow these people's minds. Let the emperor bear a bad reputation that will last for a thousand years."

"Concubine Ning, my palace promises you. If you can help His Majesty stabilize the overall situation today, His Majesty will definitely not do anything to you when he returns." The Empress Dowager said: "This Palace is clear that a woman's interference in the government will inevitably cause opposition from the previous court. .But if you hadn't stepped forward, our mother and son might never see each other again."

"This kindness, I will remember. As long as I am here, even the Supreme Emperor cannot easily attack you." The queen mother grabbed Wei Qian's hand and made a serious promise: "A woman, if it is not for the person she loves or her own Children, how can you do this regardless of the risk?"

"..." Wei Qian's face froze, seeing the empress dowager misunderstood, he hesitated to speak.

The conscience of heaven and earth, the reason why she helped Situ Yun was mainly because she didn't want the imperial line to be replaced, and the Tongyuan Sect would win.

From a public point of view, as an old mother in Lishan, she needs to protect the dragon's veins from being polluted by outsiders.

From a selfish point of view, Tong Yuanjiao and the Fifth Prince killed her father, and she would not let them take over no matter what.

Unexpectedly, this desperate act of resistance was misunderstood by the empress dowager as Wei Qian liked Situ Yun.

Wei Qian vomited blood in her heart, but she put on a delicate look on her face.

"I'm not afraid of other people's gossip. I like you, Concubine Wu and Concubine Xian more than that incompetent queen. At any rate, you guys are well-educated and can help a bunch of Yun'er."

The empress dowager was [-]% sincere and [-]% win over, and stayed with Wei Qian all afternoon.It wasn't until evening that Wang Zheng came to report: "I want to report to the Empress Dowager, Concubine Ning. The Tongyuan Sect has begun to attack the city again."
