Chapter 721: No Compassion
"Go to her? Isn't it like a sheep going into a tiger's mouth?" Liu Zhiqiu frowned.
"I promise, she can't count on our Liu family." Liu Muqiu said.
Mrs. Li doesn't know how to plot against the Liu family, she can only plot against her.
But it is important to solve the matter now, she can't care so much.
No matter what the conditions are, she will agree. Only when the guarantor is alive can there be a future.
Qian Wanjin nodded, "You can try it. Our Qian family also has a special channel for delivering goods, but because of the relationship between the Qian family and the Liu family, there is no way to use it now, and there must be strict investigations everywhere in the channel."
The carriage path drove towards Cangwu Town, and quietly entered the range of Cangwu Town under the cover of night.
At this time, it was already the climax of the moon, and bright lanterns were lit everywhere in the imperial palace of the capital.
Eunuchs and maidservants interspersed in an orderly manner, and everything seemed peaceful.
In the Qiande Hall, Feng Mohan looked at the person sitting in front of him, with a smile on his lips, and a chill in his eyes.
"Empress Dowager, after so many years of cultivation in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, I never imagined that one day you would be so concerned about court affairs!"
She has silver hair, but her face is about forty or fifty years old, and she doesn't look old. She is wearing a dark red phoenix robe, and her dignified and majestic aura is still higher than that of Concubine Liu.
"Your Majesty, you are a young son of heaven. Although you have been with Nanling King these years, he has been controlling the government and raising the emperor into mediocrity. Can't the Emperor see the wolfish ambition of Nanling King? The assistant he placed beside you I'm just watching you. I let you eat, drink and have fun all day long, and help you handle all the affairs. How do you grow up like this? The Ai family doesn't want to take care of things, but you are the blood of the former emperor. At the beginning, the first emperor's edict established you as emperor. What you want is not that you just be the puppet of the King of Nanling for the rest of your life. The Ai family came out now just to set things right, wake up the emperor, and stop being deceived by villains."
"So the empress dowager purged the ministers around me and listened to the government behind the curtain? If you really remember the wishes of the late emperor's grandfather that much, you should know that what he dislikes the most is the harem's participation in politics!"
"The Ai family is only responsible for supervising. If it is said to participate in politics, it is a last resort. The emperor was misled by the villain, and there are many shortcomings in running the court alone. If the Ai family does not remind you, how can you be the queen mother?"
"The Empress Dowager's job is to trap me in this Qiande Palace and pretend to be sick, and not allow me to step out of the palace gate?!" Feng Mohan laughed back in anger, his eyes were as cold as a sharp edge, and he stabbed at the old woman.
The Empress Dowager got up and brushed the hem of her clothes, "Your Majesty is tired, let's go to rest earlier, Aijia will come to visit the Emperor tomorrow. Your Majesty's dragon body is in trouble, so don't worry about it. After you get better, Aijia will hand over the affairs of the court to you. "
Leaving these words lightly, surrounded by all the maidservants and eunuchs respectfully, Shi ran away.
With a sweep of his arm, Feng Mohan swept all the things on the table in front of him to the ground, his chest heaved violently.
He is like a cripple now, imprisoned in this bedroom and unable to move!
The virtuous ministers around him were eradicated by the joint efforts of the empress dowager and the left minister, and there are very few left!
Mr. Yang and Uncle Zhixia were thrown into prison, and the imperial guards in the palace were all Qin Xiao's troops. Even if he wanted to eat an imperial meal, the eunuchs had to ask the empress dowager before someone would bring it over!
Now he is the real puppet!
The hall was silent, and there was not even a servant at hand.
In the past, all the people around him were transferred away by the empress dowager.
He didn't expect, maybe even the emperor uncle didn't expect that they were closely guarding against the forces of Prime Minister Zuo and Qin Xiao, but finally there would be a queen dowager!
With the empress dowager's position in the harem, when the emperor's uncle is away, the other party's handling of him is as easy as handling a bug!
Sitting down slumped, looking out of the window through the half-opened window lattice, the moonlight was bright and clear. In his eyes, this kind of moonlight used to be a kind of beautiful scenery that could make people calm down and calm down. Looking at it now, it only makes people feel more lonely and helpless.
I don't know how Uncle Zhi Xia and Mr. Yang are in the prison.
Those people will definitely not treat them well.
It is said that he will choose a day to ask for execution.
Choose a date!
I don't know if Uncle Huang can come back in time before that.
If he doesn't make it in time, he won't have the face to face Aunt Liu and everyone in Liu's compound in this life!
In the small windows of the sky prison, the moonlight coming in is very cool.
In October in Kyoto, it seems to add a bit of chill to the air.
"Teacher, it's the students who have troubled you." Sitting in a corner of the cell, Liu Zhixia smiled wryly at the old man in the opposite iron fence.
"What are you talking about? If you don't want to get involved, the old man was already mentally prepared when he took over the post of Taifu. Even without you, as long as the old man assists the emperor, he will be a thorn in the eyes of those people. It has nothing to do with you." Mr. Yang smile.
The officialdom is changing rapidly, and no one can predict where they will go and where they will fall and capsize.
Now he and Zhixia are both victims of the power struggle.
His words silenced Liu Zhixia.
Trapped in prison, unthinkable. They are already prisoners, and now they can only hope that Feng Qingbai can come back in time.
Otherwise, they might really be killed.
"Teacher, when do you think they will choose our heads?" Liu Zhixia asked, having fun while suffering.
"Naturally, before the prince comes back."
"My daughter-in-law gave birth to a fat boy. He was just full moon when I left, and I didn't even give him a hug. When he grows up, he probably doesn't know what his father looks like."
Old Yang snorted, "Don't talk about being discouraged. If things haven't reached that point, maybe there will be a turnaround in the end."
"I hope so." Liu Zhixia turned to look at the skylight above her head.
What he misses the most now, besides the fat boy, is Yuzheng. He promised to take care of her for the rest of his life, but he might break his promise.
There are also grandparents at home, they must be distraught.
This charge of disloyalty and unfilial piety is really difficult to deal with.
"Teacher, the Empress Dowager has been living in the Hall of Mental Cultivation before. After so many years, why did she suddenly appear again? It doesn't do her any good."
The Empress Dowager has no children, even if she wins the game and the dragon chair is replaced, it has nothing to do with her.
"Back then, in order to stabilize the young emperor's throne, the prince shed blood. Both of the empress dowager's two sons died under the sword of the prince. She did not do anything else this time, but revenge."
"Don't even care about the country?" Liu Zhixia sneered.
Looking at the entire Nanling royal family, the only one who has the qualifications to become a Mingjun is Feng Mohan who was carefully taught by Feng Qingbai.
If the Empress Dowager insists on pulling Feng Mohan down, Nanling will surely collapse in the future.
Disregarding the country and the country for one's own selfish desires, it was a waste of the former mother's favor to the world.
After many years of cultivating the mind in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, I still haven't been able to cultivate compassion.
"The reasons are hard to explain. There are many things that cannot be put into words, and it is difficult to tell the truth from the false. In short, the Empress Dowager will only be more difficult to deal with when she walks out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation than Concubine Liu."
