The doors of Rouqing garden were closed one after another, and the murmur became more and more distant. Duke Hu, who was guarding the hall, heard some noises. For a time, he was stunned and couldn't wake up. He had not seen the emperor he served for many years. He stayed in the palace of concubines in the daytime, and did good deeds with the door closed.
The emperor and the eunuch, however, did not have to wait outside the Imperial Palace door for a moment.
Before the spring in the palace was over, a courtyard on the outskirts of Kyoto City was a little dilapidated. It could be seen that it had been abandoned for a long time, but suddenly lived in the prince's house. A man in cloth clothes with a slightly distorted face and a beautiful appearance came and went back and forth. After hearing the low voice of his subordinates who had just returned, he suddenly changed his face and drank.
"What?"
As soon as he turned his head, the sun fell and completely cleared his eyes and eyebrows. It was because of Jiang Hui's adultery, Ye Jing, the former crown prince who was banned and abolished.
The subordinates kneeling in front of him had been with him for many years. Today, they wanted to make the father of the demon concubine appear timidly in front of the emperor. The emperor did not like his concubine's father to be so cowardly. He naturally moved his mind to promote the father of the demon imperial concubine. Originally, all the forces in the imperial court were ready. As long as the emperor inquired about the vacant position of Hubu, Hubu He will report the position of the capital city, and the emperor will consider it for a moment, and he will certainly agree to it.
They set up a trap step by step. Who would have thought that the emperor suddenly changed his intention to confer a marquis when the imperial edict was about to come. Later, the news came from the imperial palace that the demon imperial concubine felt that her father had no talent and begged the emperor to give him a false job. Not only that, but also removed Gu from the position of Shaoqing in Guanglu temple.
Think of here, that subordinate just feel can't say the air is stuffy, some hate should way.
"Your Highness, I blame you for your bad work. The key is that the demon princess, who died early as a commoner son and mother, must have resented his father all the time. If you hear that the emperor wants to confer his father on him, you will feel resentful That's what it looks like
Ye Congmin gritted his teeth and knew that this was not going to happen at this time. In a short period of time, the emperor would never give any purpose to the demon imperial concubine family. He felt that he had punched the cotton and gnawed his teeth. However, he still said calmly, "how is the father of that demon imperial concubine now? Has not raised any doubts about us."
The subordinates bowed their heads and looked better. It seemed that the only thing they could be happy about was this: "back to your highness, the father of the demon princess was actually a straw bag. Even if he was robbed of real power, he didn't feel anything. On the contrary, he liked the Emperor's reward. Later, he said that God's grace was so great that he completely forgot what he had promised us."
Ye startled to hear the words, suddenly angry up, a foot will kick him over, roared: "waste, really a waste!"
His subordinates got a pain in his shoulder, but immediately got up again. There was deep helplessness in his eyes, but there was no resentment. It can be seen that loyalty is the main factor. Instead, he asked more important things: "Your Highness, we wanted to use the father of the demon princess to control the Imperial Guard. If we don't succeed, we can plant it on the demon princess. Now, what should we do?"
"Your Highness, your highness, I take the liberty to remind you that time is running out. The third prince and princess Defei have been vaguely aware of a change here. If there was not a mysterious force protecting us all the time, we would have been caught by the third prince's party for a long time. We must start immediately! Don't hesitate at this time, your highness
When ye Jing heard this, he knew that his subordinates were urging him to do it immediately, and he could not help thinking about the content of the plan in an instant. After all, he had been a good son for so many years. Knowing that once the plan was started, there would be no turning back. He could not help but pace a few hesitations: "let's think about Go down first. "
Seeing his hesitation, the subordinate was in a hurry. He took a few steps on his knees, grabbed Ye Cong's cloth clothes, and advised him bitterly, "Your Highness, just listen to your subordinates' words. Your highness really didn't cheat you, your highness."
Ye Jing was upset. He lifted his hand and shook off his hand. He took a few steps toward the distance. His face was distorted by hesitation and panic. His breath became thicker and thicker, but he could not make a final decision. Kneeling on the ground did not get up, only fixed to look at the hesitating people, anxiously waiting for him to make a decision.
At this time, a low husky female voice suddenly sounded in the garden: "what he said is not wrong."
"Who?" As soon as the voice rang out, Ye Jing, who was just like a frightened bird, turned around alertly and raised his hand to the dark guard around him. Before he could say anything more, he saw a man in a black hat walking quickly to a nearby place. After sighing, he uncovered his black veil.
Seeing the face of the person, Ye Jing exclaimed, "empress mother!"
The comer, however, should have been in the Imperial Palace at this time, the empress of takong palace!
"I've seen the queen!"
Ye Jing stepped forward a few steps and held the Queen's arm. He asked nervously, "empress mother, you How did you get out of the palace? If the father and the emperor find out that the mother and empress go out of the palace without permission, isn't it... "
The queen listened to his words with timidity. She glanced at her frustrated son and stamped her foot with hatred of iron and steel: "when is it? You are still thinking about these useless things! The emperor dotes on that demon imperial concubine. How can I come here? Even if this palace died one day, he would clap hands with that demon imperial concubine! Now the situation is such that we can't afford to step back. If we don't succeed, we will become benevolent! "The Queen's words were resolute, full of strong smell of blood. Shocked, ye shuddered, she swallowed her saliva and asked, "empress mother, things are Is it really so serious as you said, my son... "
"Are you really the son of this palace? How dare you When the queen came to see his hesitant look, she was already not happy. At this time, she saw him with more fear. Her face changed for a moment. She was even more eager to go up and wake him up. She said in a sharp voice, "I knew that entanglement with that cheap woman would almost ruin the great event. I still don't wake up."
In her rage, the Queen's face twisted to a terrible angle. Seeing ye Jing's knee softened, she did not care much about what she thought. She immediately lowered her body and said, "empress mother, please don't be angry! The son minister knows wrong, the son minister all listens to the mother's empress! "
Looking at kneeling at her own legs, the queen sighed and waved to the people on the other side: "you go down, this palace wants to discuss with the crown prince about big plans!"
After saying that, she raised her hand and grasped Ye Cong's hand, and pulled him to his face.
"Cong'er, you should be clear that this plot of the demon princess is not successful. The demon princess will probably see something. There are three princes and duchesses around us. The plan may leak at any time! Now it's not whether we decide to start, but it is necessary to start before the third prince party finds out! "
Hearing the leakage of the plan, Ye Jing's look changed again and again. Her fingers clenched into fists in her sleeve, and her eyes faintly showed her madness. When the queen saw his appearance at the moment, her eyes showed satisfaction and hatred.
"This time, we must force the old man to abdicate and eliminate the three princes and one party! My son! "
Ye Cong's eyes were gloomy and terrifying. He knelt down on the ground and firmly said," the empress mother is wise! My son's minister obeys the instructions of his mother! "
When the queen saw that her encouragement had played a role, her face relaxed, patted the back of his hand and praised: "good! My son is the crown prince. As long as we succeed, we will surely be able to rise to the heights and submit to the world! Don't belittle yourself, do you know? After a few days of the emperor's birthday, the night when the wives of the imperial family and the ministers came into the palace to celebrate their birthday, we will accomplish everything in one fell swoop! When ye heard this, he immediately lowered his head and lowered his voice. His eyes flashed a fierce look.
A few days later was the day of the emperor's birthday. The palace was full of brilliant and beautiful lights and decorations. All the darkness was immersed in the deepest place. The fragrant fragrance spread out and overcame the bloody smell that was about to rise.
As it was getting dark, the lanes at the corner gate of the imperial palace were already full of carriages, including the family members of the ministers, the relatives and relatives of the emperor, and even the carriages of the princes and concubines of the third prince's house.
Ye Xu came with a young man and saw a well-dressed young woman coming down from the carriage of the third prince's concubine. Her face was delicate, her face was smiling, and her whole body was noble and proud. It was Ning Huan, the prime minister's daughter who was married to the third prince in the winter of last year and who had just got married a few days ago.
At the sight of Ning Huan, ye Xu's eyes flashed slightly, as if he had remembered something. A trace of inexplicable ridicule appeared in the corner of his lips. His eyes turned again to support Ning Huan, with a smile on his face and a gentle and gentle attitude. Looking at the new wife's contented face, he could not see that it was the third brother who was still pestering Jiang Luoyu two months ago 。
The prince's love is just like this. Compared with the beautiful scenery, what is it?
Thinking of this, he could not help but glance at the melancholy color in his eyes, as if he was lost in his heart for watching the figure getting farther and farther away. However, it fell in the bottom of his dark eyes, but it was full of ambition and determination that could not be concealed.
He came here on horseback. After thinking for a moment, he got off the horse, threw the reins aside and adjusted his clothes. Just as he was about to enter the palace and change his royal clothes, he turned his eyes slightly. Subconsciously, he looked at the carriage team not far away. He just saw a gentle twin who was supporting a lady like man to get out of the car. His face was safe Be quiet.
When he saw the face of the Gemini, ye Xu couldn't help being in a trance for a moment, as if he had seen the blue shadow on him. His eyes quickly wandered around the carriage, and immediately found the family emblem on the carriage. When he saw the family emblem, he could not help but shrink his pupils and walk in that direction unconsciously.
That's Jiang's family emblem.
