[Red House] Lixian

When Emperor Wu ascended the throne, some people paid tribute to Luo Ruhua.After the Northern Expedition beyond the Great Wall, some people offered green sac flowers.The petals are a couple, which coincides with Kun Dao. Thinking about it now, it seems to imply that the humanities have turned dark, and a female saint was born.

——— "On Flowers"

At night, Daming Palace is brightly lit.Wei Qian sent people out of the palace to interrogate, not only the guards of the capital, but also the officials of the government office followed.It was indeed a brilliant move for Situ Yun to ask Nan Daying to deal with Donggong.Wei Qian and the others were unprepared at first, and let Zhang Shide rush into the Zichen Hall and seize the front door.As long as it works properly, it can dominate.

Fortunately, the people in the Prince's East Palace responded quickly, and Wei Qian sent a message outside the palace.This made Jia Lian go to Feng's house to find helpers, and took Danfengmen back from outside the palace.Under the enemy's front and back, the tug-of-war of scrambling and grabbing lasted all night.

As the night passed, Wei Qian and the prince finally suppressed the rebellion by virtue of their military superiority.Looking at the mess in the palace, Wei Qian sighed: "If we fight in the same room, no matter the outcome, it will be our fault!"

The prince was in a trance, and he almost became a rebel himself, following the path of the princes of all ages.

"Come on, bring Zhang Shide." Wei Qian ordered someone to bring Zhang Shide up.

Zhang Shide had an unruly expression on his face, he didn't worship Wei Qian and the prince.

"You said you were acting according to orders?"

"That's right, according to the order to quell the chaos!" Zhang Shide raised his head and chest.Wei Qian remained silent and asked him to bring the imperial decree.

Wei Qian looked at Zhang Shide's imperial edict, and it was indeed Situ Yun's handwriting.Coupled with the fact that Gou Chen Xing was still there in the north, it was obvious that Situ Yun was fine.

"It's indeed his handwriting." Wei Qian sighed slightly in her heart, did she finally come to this point?

At this time, the plum blossom fairy came.Now she is in charge of Hundred Blossoms, learned the prophecy from Fairy Qing Nang, and quickly told Wei Qian.

"..." Wei Qian smiled, "The heroine is happy and Wei Chang? I didn't expect that I could still enjoy this kind of treatment."

She handed the imperial decree to the prince, and the prince's expression changed.It would be false to say that the prince has no intention of becoming the throne.But ascending the throne at this time is bound to cause criticism, and it is a serious crime of conspiracy.Moreover, his father's life and death were uncertain, so how could he choose to ascend the throne at this moment?

"Come on, let's get up! Call the officials into the Xuanzheng Hall." Wei Qian thought for a while: "Prince, you go to the front hall, and go to the palace when you turn back."

Wei Qian said to the prince: "Don't worry, your position will not be shaken, this palace has its own concerns." She glanced at Concubine Shu who was trapped next to her, and went back to the palace to prepare a handwritten letter.

Concubine Shu is nothing more than a clown to her.Relying on muskets and sharp weapons, they couldn't deal with the two of them, they were just trash!

Concubine Shu was gagged and kept struggling.

If it is said that she acted according to the order, there was nothing wrong with taking over Liugong.For a softer person, maybe she will put down her weapon and let her be slaughtered.However, Wei Qian's prestige in the palace is too high, and what kind of temperament is Wei Qian?Casually pointing at Concubine Shu's coercive edict, Yang Kai ordered all the guards in the palace to attack, and joined Wei Qian to resist the people in the South Camp.So give Wei Qian and the prince a chance to breathe.

Back to Penglai Hall, Concubine Wen hurried over with a group of children.

"Mother!" Princess Yuanjia stepped forward with Situ Xi in her arms, and Concubine Wen was accompanied by the second son of the Wei family, who came to visit her aunt.

"Sister is all right?" Concubine Wen looked flustered. She was playing with some children in the Meilou, but when she heard about the great changes in the palace, after Hongchun fled from the palace, Princess Yuanjia immediately ordered the Meilou to be closed.Knowing that the situation in the palace was stable, he came out again.

At this time, Hongchun came to visit with a group of honored female officials.Hongchun went outside the palace through a secret passage, and first went to the women's school to find Lin Daiyu.Together with Lin Daiyu, mobilize the honored female officials who left the palace in the early years, and went to the homes of the ministers separately to report to them.

Nan Daying's actions were secretive, and with the help of Concubine Shu, she entered the palace silently.If it wasn't for the fact that the prince's life should not be terminated, something might have happened already.

Wei Qian told Hongchun: "This time, all the honored female officials have contributed to the country. But it is not clear whether the merit is counted. But you pass on the name of the palace, and take out the objects from the warehouse of the palace to reward. Don't hurt the hearts of the heroes."

Looking at the honored female officials again, Wei Qian sighed: "You have been out of the palace for many years, but the heart of serving the country is not inferior to men, and it will not be in vain for the love taught by the palace and the queen mother in the past." Qian was further canonized as an honorary palace.And these 12 people are the female officials who later entered "The Picture of Women's Grass" together with Hongchun and others.During Emperor Wu's reign, all the female officials with names and surnames posted this picture, including Jia Yuanchun, Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu.

This is Wei Qian's "Picture of Women's Grass" that Wei Qian deliberately challenged Fairy Jing Huan, and left a last word for Hong Chun to prepare.Didn't Fairy Jing Huan have the Twelve Beauties of Jinling, who recorded the misery of the women in Jinling?I will list the elite women in the country to see who is better than whom.

To appease the female officials one by one, Wei Qian wrote a few more handwritten letters.

"Hongchun, keep the experience I have recorded over the years, and give it to Yuan Jia and Xi'er in the future." Wei Qian asked him to reorganize his internal treasury and divide it into three parts.A part was reserved for the Wei Mansion, a part was reserved for Yuan Jia, and a part was reserved for Situ Xi.

Seeing Wei Qian's actions, everyone's hearts sank.

Concubine Wen hurriedly stepped forward to stop her from continuing to write the imperial edict: "Sister... you—"

"Don't worry, sister, I have a sense of proportion." Wei Qian raised her head and looked at Lin Daiyu: "You ladies and gentlemen are not allowed to go to the hall, you take them to Wutong Pavilion first."

Wutong Pavilion?Lin Daiyu nodded, and led the female officials out first.

Daiyu thought to herself: "Your Majesty is not dead, but this is a good opportunity for my sister to get away. Although a face-to-face argument can resolve the misunderstanding. But this misunderstanding is beneficial to my sister. If I take this opportunity to get away and leave, it can also be exchanged for the Wei family. An amulet. So, sister is going to choose to feign death at this time, and resist everything by the way?" Daiyu knew that Wei Qian was secretive, and she was not worried about Wei Qian's safety.Take Wang Xifeng and leave with honored female officials.

Xuanzheng Hall, the place where the emperor faces the court.The prince came with the princess, and the ministers were not surprised when they saw the princess.Li Feiya is regarded as the luckiest woman in the world.The same surname is Li, but the last real princess died of illness, which made her, who was still a female official at the time, become the future queen.And this is also a link for the alliance between Concubine Ning and the prince.

"True and false Li, concubine Mei, yin and yang marry the right man." The rumors and admiration for her in the mortal world are not much less than Wei Qian.

Seeing the princess coming out, Jia Lian couldn't help but ask a few words.

"There is chaos in the palace, I don't worry about the princess being in the East Palace." Now the prince can't trust the people around him, so he brings his wife by his side.

"Then do you need to use a screen to cover it?"

"No need, what are you hiding at this time?" Wei Qian changed clothes, dressed up, brought Princess Yuanjia and others, and passed Zhang Shide's imperial edict to all the officials.

At the beginning, the ministers only heard about the palace change from Hongchun, so they came to rescue him.But after seeing the imperial decree, he was surprised.

"rebellion?"

"I've been wholeheartedly serving the public these days, so where did I plot rebellion?" Everyone in the Eastern Palace laughed back angrily, and some even worried: "How could His Majesty make such an order? Could it be that someone is bewitching you?"

The palace people brought chairs, Wei Qian and the prince each sat on a wooden chair, in front of the dragon chair.In extraordinary times, even those old masters don't care about talking about etiquette.

Wei Qian smiled at the ministers: "I don't know what happened to Your Majesty, that you think that the Palace and the Crown Prince are rebelling against each other? And this army is actually the Nan Daying, which is His Majesty's most direct descendant?"

They also asked people to bring Zhang Shide, Concubine Shu, Liang Shaochu and Li Dashi.

"You can ask yourself."

The seven ministers interrogated several people, and they insisted that this was Situ Yun's decree.Li Dashi and Liang Shaochu felt a little guilty, so of course they refused to tell the truth.To put it bluntly, Situ Yun was worried about the affairs of the court and asked them to come back to take over the court.

"For no reason, why did Your Majesty come to take over the imperial court, let alone the crime of treason?" The prince said with a gloomy face, "I am under house arrest for the prince and Concubine Ning? When someone poisons me with a glass of wine, can it still be said to commit suicide in fear of crime?" ?” He stared at the second and third princes.The second prince's expression remained unchanged, while the third prince's expression flickered.

"If the two of us die, Lao Wu and Yuan Jia may not be able to survive. Who will benefit then?"

Lin Chaoyang hurriedly came out: "Your Highness, this must be an accident in the north, maybe..." Maybe someone falsely preached the imperial decree, or even more likely, His Majesty died of a sudden illness.

When it comes to the battle for the throne, all the ministers cheered up and began to calculate their camp one by one.

Second, the third prince's person: "If the prince's rebellion is confirmed at this time, can we push His Highness to the throne?"

"But what's going on in the north?"

The people in the East Palace were enthusiastic: "This is a golden opportunity, the prince took this opportunity to ascend the throne, and it is all right to enshrine Your Majesty as the Supreme Emperor. If you are more cruel, His Majesty will die suddenly in the north."

Of course, there are still some people who are loyal to the emperor. Seeing that the atmosphere is not right, they quickly knelt down and said to Wei Qian: "Your Majesty and Your Majesty have supported me for many years, and I ask your Majesty to take charge of the overall situation and welcome Your Majesty back to the palace."

At this time, the princes couldn't believe it, and whoever presided over the overall situation was suspected of usurping the throne.Wei Qian, the imperial concubine who has supported Situ Yun for many years, is safer.Of course, the key is that these people don't know the prophecy from the north, otherwise Wei Qian would be the first to take precautions.

Mei Shangshu also knelt down: "Major, please make an order, I will wait for the king to go north."

"The prince entered the palace last night and said the same thing. But...forget it, you follow me out of the city." Wei Qian ordered someone to drive, and led the crowd to the outskirts of the city.

An accident happened in Daming Palace, and the people in the city were in panic, Wei Qian's going out of the palace this time also intended to calm people's hearts.

Although the streets were cleaned, the alleys on both sides were crowded with people.The people did not dare to go forward, but after a while, some old people came with dove sticks.Kneeling in front of the driver to greet Wei Qian and the prince.

The officials wanted to invite them away, but they were stopped by Wei Qian: "You have national affairs in mind, and you are an old man, you can't do this." Several people were invited to the front, and one of the gray-haired old men asked about what happened last night .

Wei Qian said: "Your Majesty went north to the outside of the Great Wall and ordered the crown prince to supervise the country, with my palace assisting him. In recent days, your majesty's dragon body has been ill. Someone wanted to take over the imperial palace with your majesty's edict, and put me and the crown prince under house arrest."

When the elders heard this, they were shocked.

"Thank God, my palace and the crown prince are fine. Now that I want to go to the suburbs, I will send someone to go north to invite His Majesty to return to Beijing."

"You can rest assured that your majesty is blessed with good people and good fortune. Now that the north of the Great Wall has been settled, I will submit to the four directions, sit in the Kyushu, and there will be no more military disasters."

After hearing Wei Qian's words, the hearts of the people are sure.Over the years, Situ Yun's literary skills and martial arts have won the hearts of the people, at least in Chang'an City, the people's hearts are towards Wei Qian and Situ Yun.

"I'm waiting to wish His Majesty an early return journey, and wish Your Majesty a thousand years of golden safety."

After finishing speaking, Wei Qian drove to Wutong Pavilion.A large group of people followed behind, waiting far away at the bottom of the slope.

All the ministers followed Wei Qian to stand in the Wutong Pavilion, Lin Daiyu and others had been waiting for a long time.

Wei Qian stepped forward to hold Lin Daiyu's hand, pointed at the pavilion with a smile, and said, "When my palace was ordered to enter Chang'an, I asked people to build this parasol pavilion. This pavilion has a good view of Chang'an. Tongbai Pavilion next to it."

At Tongbaiting, the hearts of all the ministers sank.

Tongbai Pavilion is the place where Queen Si died.Empress Si, also known as Wei Zifu, was the successor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.The same surname is Wei, the same relatives are in the court, and it is also His Majesty's decree against him and the prince.

The ministers were in a trance, as if seeing the past history.That queen hanged herself, and that prince...

How miserable was Prince Li's past, how is it recorded in the history books?

Situ Tao's face was ugly, and he clenched his fists.

"Don't worry, you call me concubine mother, I will definitely not let you experience the past of the prince Li in the past." Wei Qian turned her head: "This palace and the prince have no intention of rebelling, and your majesty is not a heartless person. Just talk about it. But if you send troops to the north, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion in His Majesty's heart, which is not beautiful."

"Now the prince is avoiding suspicion, so don't act at will. But yesterday someone entered the palace to seek rebellion, and there must be instructions behind it." Wei Qian stretched out his hand and lightly said: "The princes follow the prince to avoid suspicion, and you must not act without authorization." He ordered Situ Jie and others Watch it.

The prince's followers were shocked, and another group of guards raised their swords at Wei Qian's men.

"Why, are you all planning to rebel?" Wei Qian pointed to the Doumo Temple at the foot of Lishan Mountain: "This place was built by Your Majesty after the Doumo Temple in Jinling. In the past, His Majesty was in danger when he was young, but fortunately Doumo protected him from disaster. Princes Let's go to Doulao Temple to pray for Your Majesty."

"Concubine Wen, take everyone in the harem together. Yang Kai, listen to Concubine Wen's words and guard the Doulao Temple to protect the safety of all the princes." Not only the second and third princes, but also the fourth prince of Concubine Shu and Wei Qian All the five princes were sent to Doulao Temple.

"Cousin Daiyu, you have been cultivating in Doulao Temple these years. Please take good care of these princes." All the princes were imprisoned in one breath.

Seeing this, the royalist party felt relieved.At this time, no prince can believe it, this empress has calmed down, as long as His Majesty returns, the overall situation will be settled!

"North King Qin, it's not good for anyone else to go. Mei Shangshu, you go." Wei Qian pointed to the Minister of Rites and said, "You have never been in harmony with this palace. If the imperial edict is really issued by His Majesty, I don't think you will doubt it when you go. You follow this Palace to conspire."

Wei Qian ordered a few more people to follow Mei Shangshu to the north.Let the others headed by Jia Lian stay in the capital: "The government should not be neglected, and you will run all the affairs to ensure the safety of the world."

As the decree was passed down one by one, the expressions of the officials gradually changed.Why does this empress have the intention of asking her to be alone?And dealing with political affairs, isn't she still there?

"Zhang Shide, you are a loyal person. I don't care whether your emperor's decree is true or not. But since you have reached this point, you can enter the palace and take over Daming Palace."

Anyway, Concubine Wen and others all went to Doulao Temple to pray for blessings, but there was no one in the palace.

"You supervise the country with Jia Lian and others. You will know the truth when His Majesty returns someday." Wei Qian took out a glass of wine, and walked a few steps forward to the side of Concubine Shu and Liang Shaochu.

Seeing Wei Qian taking the wine, Concubine Shu was terrified.Wei Qian ignored her, and looked at Liang Shaochu: "Who are you from?"

"If I'm not mistaken, Li Dashi should belong to the Third Prince?"

Startled, Li Cheng turned to look at Wei Qian.The ministers beside him began to discuss, and unconsciously looked at the third prince who was being suppressed next to him.

"You're talking nonsense!" The third prince blushed, naturally he refused to admit it.If you accept this matter, won't your father tear yourself apart when the emperor comes back?

"Hmph! Don't throw it at others." Liang Shaochu's heart moved, and he laughed loudly: "Qingtian is dead and Huangtian should be established. You and old thief Situ destroyed my god religion, and now I will ruin your country. I'm not afraid to tell you, All of this was arranged by me! I went to falsely accuse you two of treason, and the old thief Situ must have killed your brother and the eldest princess by now!"

"Tong Yuan Sect rebelled?" Jia Lian got up suddenly, and was about to hack him to death with his sword.

"Forget it, keep him. Let Situ Yun handle it later." Wei Qian called him by his name and walked back to Wutong Pavilion.Looking at the green pines and old cypresses outside the Tongbai Pavilion, he raised his wine glass: "Queen Si has been lonely here for many years. At any rate, you and I are finally a family. I will come to accompany you."

"Mother Concubine!" Immediately, Yuan Jia and others stepped forward, but it was too late.Wei Qian drank the poisonous wine, threw the wine glass casually, and sighed to Bei: "We have treated each other like a guest for 30 years, but we have lost to Qing Nang with a single word. In this way, we will be able to settle all grievances between you and me!"
