Chapter 522

Regarding this issue, now both inside and outside the palace, by and large, they all suspect that the mastermind of this matter is the Dowager Empress or that this matter must have received the permission of the Dowager Empress.

Even the two Empress Su and Empress Wei, last night witnessed the Empress Dowager’s horror when she saw Lu He Hao broke into the seat, due to the “fifth brother” and his entourage to take out the “assassin” action, but also on the Empress Dowager’s heart doubts: the Empress Dowager’s safety for their own! So attentive, even the day of the Sacred Life Festival has not been the slightest slack, visible Mingren Palace seems to be loose but tight, is not a good place to mix in.

Without the permission of the Empress Dowager, how could Lu Hehao, who had already been abolished as a commoner and sent to the Imperial Tomb, walk into Mingren Palace with his head held high and expose Emperor Duanhua’s incestuous affairs in public?

However, at this moment, Su Shaoge heard the words, but pondered for a while, before saying, “This matter in the next also do not know, whether Old Lady Duanmu is willing to inform you two, so do not dare to overstep the bounds, but also ask you two to be able to forgive me!”

Song Yixiao frowned slightly at these words and looked at her husband with a helpless gazeJian Xubai also let out a bitter laugh: Su Shao Ge said that he refused to say anything, but in reality, he had already hinted to them that the mastermind behind helping Lu He Hao break into the palace and setting off this monstrous storm before them was not the Dowager Empress, but Old Lady Duanmu!

In fact, those who know the Dowager Empress, calm down to know the cracks: the Dowager Empress no longer hate Duanhua Emperor, but also not so much as to say that in order to kill off this grandson, to lose their own son, Emperor Xianjia’s name behind the scene?

After all, it wasn’t as if the Dowager Empress didn’t have other ways to replace the Emperor speaking of which, I’m afraid that the Dowager Empress suddenly gave a secret decree to the Wei Su and Su families before because the concubine Lu He Hao told the Dowager Empress about this secret in the letter she entrusted the Grand Princess of Zhenyang to forward to the Dowager Empress when she left the Imperial Capital and headed for the Imperial Tomb.

So Wei Su two families received the decree, repeatedly inquired, only know that the Empress Dowager read the letter after the wrath of the very, demanded as soon as possible to solve the Duanhua emperor, as for the content of the letter, is not revealed!

Such a royal scandal, of course the Dowager Empress would not allow it to be spread out!

“I’m afraid that the reason why concubine Lu Hehao was assassinated was also the Empress Dowager’s purpose?” Song Yixiao secretly thought, “The Dowager Empress directly gave a secret decree to the Wei and Su families, urging them to act quickly how could these two families not try to figure out the cause after being surprised?”

And it was impossible for them to press the Dowager Empress, so how could they not take action when they found out that it was related to Lu Hehao?

The Empress Dowager is using a knife to kill people No, no, no, no, no, the two Wei Su families sent people to arrest Lu He Hao, the main purpose was to ask for a confession, not to directly kill people to kill them.

Otherwise, even if Lu Hehao is ruthless enough to use his wife and son as a shield, he may not be able to hold out until the people sent by Elder Lady Duanmu to meet him arrive.

And the Dowager Empress obviously didn’t want the secret to get out.

Song Yixiao thought to herself, “I’m afraid that the Dowager Empress also suspects Grandmother and is trying to use this opportunity to force Grandmother’s hand?”

The date of Nuan Tai Consort’s conception had already been repeatedly confirmed back when Emperor Duanhua suspected King Qing’s bloodline, around the time of Emperor Xianjia’s death.

Most likely the days after Emperor Xianjia’s death.

It was the days when Emperor Duanhua was at his most chaotic and weak, causing even Gu Shao to worry about him.

The Empress Dowager and Empress Su are in pain, the Empress Wei is about to give birth to a baby, it is the harem without a master Gu Shao again how to grasp inside and outside, in the end, can not control the palace exams to go!

But even so, with Lu Hehao’s power and roots, there was not much to count on if he wanted to pit Emperor Duanhua so much at that time.

Because although he could have sidetracked Emperor Duanhua’s beloved Zhu Qin from time to time under the banner of thinking about Emperor Duanhua, it was impossible for Emperor Duanhua to be served by only Zhu Qin at that time even though he had not yet formally ascended to the throne.

After Zhu Qin left, there were other people who served Emperor Duanhua.

It’s just that those people may not be as loyal as Zhu Qin!

Most importantly, even though Emperor Duanhua was in a bad situation at the time, he wasn’t really stupid after all it was impossible for him to go to Consort Nuan’s residence!

So it could only be that the Nuan Tai Consort quietly sneaked into the place where Emperor Duanhua would have been housed, and conceived an heir while Emperor Duanhua was unconscious.

And it wasn’t as if the Nuan Tai Fei had no one to wait on with Lu He Hao himself, where did he get the ability to do this and keep it hidden until now?

Any fool can think that there must be someone behind him.

So the Empress Dowager specifically in the secret decree to Wei Su two families, told them that he allowed Lu He Hao also has the qualification to succeed the throne the purpose of the purpose is to borrow the hands of these two families, forcing out the mastermind behind the Lu He Hao!

Only the Dowager Empress Dowager never thought that the real culprit behind the scene although forced out, but not until she thought of the method to set things right, Mrs. Duanmu old lady first to strike, gave Lu’s royal family a ruthless.

Song Yixiao sighed in her heart: this hand of Old Lady Duanmu can be said to have caused both father and son, Xianjia and Duanhua, to lose face, and incidentally gave the entire Lu Clan Royal Family a resounding slap in the face!

Will such a new ruler really disregard it when he comes to power?

It is no wonder that the grandmother refused to move to the Yan Marquis residence Duanmu old lady herself anyway, a great age, enjoy the blessings have suffered, stormy decades down, what are open, not afraid of any more miserable end.

As long as the fire didn’t burn to the Marquis Yan’s side, the old madam could be said to have no inhibitions.

So she has been covering up, refusing to disclose the past and her plans with Marquis Yan, probably because she also hopes to take Marquis Yan out of the things she did, the clearer the better?

“If His Majesty himself proposes to abdicate and give way to the Crown Prince, I’m only afraid that most of the courtiers will agree.” At this time, Jian Xu Bai slowly spoke up, “Because His Majesty’s current brothers in name are only two, commoner Lu He Hao and King Shu.”

“Lu Hehao has very little to count on, not only because there was no support behind him that could rival Wei Su’s, as well as his own lack of fame. More importantly, the reason why he is now a commoner is due to the fact that the entire court and His Majesty have been at odds with each other for a long time!”

The court was against the opposition of Emperor Duanhua and reduced the former King of Liang to a commoner, forfeited his family’s property, and drove his entire family to the emperor’s mausoleum to guard the tomb!

Although these people could argue that they did not know what was going on at that time and did not understand Luk Hakho’s bitterness and filial piety in redressing the wrongs of the late Emperor due to the great success of Luk Hakho’s revelation, who knows whether Luk Hakho could sympathize with them?

Wouldn’t they be miserable if they couldn’t?

“And the King of Shu is too young, his temperament seems to be arrogant, and his schoolwork has been sparse, so there is really no appearance of a wise ruler!”

“What’s more, Taifei Xu comes from a normal background, and the Xu family isn’t even qualified to participate in such a major event as the fight for the crownunless Gu Xiang and the Imperial Grandmother suddenly agreed on the King of Shu, no one would be willing to stand up to the Wei family’s pressure and propose that the King of Shu take the throne!”

“The worst thing is that King Su is still on his way back to the Imperial Capital right now!”

“King Su was passed out by the late emperor himself, and this point is already very unfavorable to his assumption of the throne.”

“Now that the person is not yet in the imperial capital His Majesty, however, will surely have to give the world an explanation as soon as possible is it difficult to ask the court, or the entire clan, to leave the heirs of the late Emperor who are in the imperial capital alone, and set up King Su, who has not yet arrived in the imperial capital?”

“Throughout history, there has never been such a rule!”

Jian Xu Bai sighed here, “In fact, His Highness the King of Su’s heart and talent, the court is clear! Now the difficulty lies in the name: if this problem is not solved, with all due respect, His Highness’s hope of ascending the throne is very slim!”

Adding another sentence, “Especially, if His Majesty in the palace may respond at any time, and His Highness, King Su, will not be able to make it to the imperial capital within the next two or three days!”

“Earlier, we were planning to wait until King Su arrived at the imperial capital before responding.” Su Shaoge revealed a bitter smile, “But things have come to this … point and we can only find a way!”

No way, although the old lady Duanmu and Su family entanglement is quite deep, but in the end is not a subordinate of the Su family, the Su family’s purpose is to let Su Wang ascended to the throne, the old lady Duanmu purpose is to take revenge on reneging on the emperor of Xianjia the two sides are barely an ally, or the cooperation is not close to the kind of alliance, inevitably, their own politics.

With different needs, it was simply impossible to expect Old Lady Duanmu to consider the position of the Su family and King Su before doing anything.

After all, the Su family’s layout was never aimed at targeting Emperor Xianjia either.

This is the kind of thing that can only be done on a casebycase basis.

It’s not the ally’s fault if they get dragged into it.

Therefore, although Su Shaoge is smiling bitterly at the moment, his heart is actually very calm as a son of a prestigious family who is used to fighting, for him, calculating people and being calculated are commonplace, there is nothing to be angry about.

Of course victim posturing is still necessary, after all, the kid who cries gets the sugar, doesn’t he?

“The good thing is that this matter is not completely without room for maneuver.” This will Jian Xubai heard his tone of voice on the old lady Duanmu euphemistic complaints, busy said, “because Lu He Hao succession of hope although not great, but also not completely without we can make him a front, pushed to the front to go with the Prince entangled in a few days, as long as the new king person selected not down, dragged for a As long as the new ruler can’t be chosen, we can delay it for three to five days, and when His Highness the King of Su is back to the imperial capital, then we can kick him out and replace him with His Highness the King of Su!”

Said here and reminded Su Shaoge, “Just if His Highness King Su changes to a fast horse to return to the imperial capital, the safety and security on this journey …”

“Marquis Yan but please rest assured!” Su Shaoge solemnly said, “Although Qingzhou Su has not regained the reputation of his ancestors, there is still a certainty that he can bring back King Su safely!”

Empress Su has only one son, if there is a shortcoming, Qingzhou Su still pinch what ah?

The reason why the Wei and Su families failed to capture Lu Hehao was not only because they didn’t expect the Jinxiu Hall’s intervention, but also because a considerable part of their secret guards were sent to protect the Crown Prince and the Su Kingwho asked Empress Wei and Empress Su to have only one son alive?

So there was no need for Jane Void White to speak, and it was impossible for Su Shaoge to neglect King Su’s safety.

This point is also clear to Jian Xubai, after getting Su Shao Ge’s promise also no longer pursue the question, only calmly said, “Then the next question is: commoner Lu He Hao clearly on the throne is also a deep covetousness of the heart, from this person gradually revealed ambition and the city to see, he should not be the kind of whimsical disciple!”

“And his bottom line, what is it?”
