Chapter 303 Dust settled

After hearing Zou Yuan's voice, Empress Dowager Lu's complexion turned black visibly, and she turned around with a look of shock.

"You... you shouldn't..."

Zou Yuan's eyes are bright, and his figure is indeed thinner, so he doesn't have the haggard look before.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Lu was in a trance, he followed her words.

"The empress dowager thinks... I should go west at this time?"

Empress Dowager Lu didn't understand what had gone wrong, and now that the matter had come to an end, she no longer had to put on a show, and pointed directly at Zou Yuandao.

"You are obviously poisoned deeply, and you should die soon."

Zou Yuan laughed twice after hearing this.

"I did suffer a lot because of the poisoned pulse, but fortunately everything was worth it."

Speaking of this, Zou Yuan looked directly at the Empress Dowager Lu, meeting her eyes.

"Empress Dowager, you don't know how long I have been waiting for this day."

As a generation of emperors, he endured for many years in order to uproot the power of Empress Dowager Lu.

Not only put aside the dignity of the emperor, but portrayed himself as a weak and incompetent person, who was constrained by the Empress Dowager Lu everywhere in the court, and even took risks with his own life, just to create an illusion for the Empress Dowager Lu that his power was over.

While the Empress Dowager Lu was in a daze, a large number of guards gathered around the palace and approached here. The tall figure at the head was wearing armor and walked straight to Zou Yuan.

‘Your Majesty, the rebels have all been captured. '

Empress Dowager Lu looked at the speaker, her pupils trembled, and said tremblingly.

"Si Yan? You..."

Si Yan and Guo Yi stood on both sides of Zou Yuan, one on the left and the other on the right, and there was not a single general or empress dowager beside her. How could she still not understand what was going on?

She swayed and suddenly laughed twice.

"Hahaha... After all, I underestimated you. In the end, you are the one who made the arrangements."

Zou Yuan has been fighting openly and secretly with the Empress Dowager Lu for many years, and there is no need to say some things. He looked at the embarrassment of the Empress Dowager Lu, and without hiding his shrewd and powerful eyes, he straightened his waist and said.

"Send the empress dowager back to the palace."

…

Calm gradually returned to the palace, but the fun outside the palace has just begun.

Empress Dowager Lu's original plan was to wipe out all officials outside the alliance. Tonight is destined to be a **** night, even more tragic than imagined.

The soldiers of the queen mother's party were almost everywhere in the capital, but before they could do anything, they were blocked by another group of troops.

The two parties quickly fought together, and the sound of swords and swords was everywhere.

Just as the situation became more and more stalemate, Si Yan led his troops to arrive. He rode on horseback, looked at the chaotic street, and shouted.

"Give me all, the remnants of the chaotic party, not one left!"

Following his order, all the soldiers behind him set off and ran towards the crowd.

Si Yan's soldiers are all elite soldiers and strong generals, and wherever they go, they are quickly wiped out.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night.

In the middle of the night, the sound on the street faded, and the lights of the Si family were brightly lit. Everyone stood guard in the hall, as if waiting for the final judgment.

Si Yao used to only know that Lu Xiangwan was close to the Queen Mother, and that Si Zhong was valued by the Queen Mother. It was not until today that he knew that Si Zhong actually played a vital role in the Queen Mother's seizure of power.

He'd been pacing up and down the hall all night, his face was a mess, but this was the end of it, and he had no choice but to wait.

Lu Xiangwan had a headache watching it, so he couldn't help but say it.

"Stop spinning, it makes me dizzy."

Si Yao scolded.

"You think I'm willing to transfer. Ziyao hasn't come back since he went out, and he doesn't know how the situation is."

Although Lu Xiangwan was also worried, she insisted on speaking.

The empress dowager has already arranged everything, and it will be safe, so you..."

Speaking of this, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, and several people in the room looked outside together.

Lu Xiangwan hurried to meet him.

"Zi Yao must be back."

As soon as the words fell, the door of the Si Mansion was opened, and Lu Xiangwan went up to greet him full of joy, but what he saw was not Si Zhong's face.
