Chapter 246 The Concubine Just Wants to Be the Queen Mother 35
Take a walk up?
Tao Ran looked at the emperor and wondered what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
He definitely doesn't have any good intentions, he just doesn't know who is this plan for?
Could it be that he was finally forced to take action?
The emperor added: "The military power of Aifei's family is all in the north, and they have a good reputation in Beijing but no real power. Otherwise, the position of queen was owned by Aifei back then, and Aifei didn't want to help the family move forward, and those who Just like the elders, only by strengthening the foundation can we stand firm from generation to generation."
Tao Ran chuckled. The emperor is not a guy who puts himself in other people's shoes. If he is so attentive for nothing, he is obviously either a traitor or a thief.
"This kind of thing can go up if you just go up?" It is precisely because the Yu family already has great military power, so even if the Yu family's children can serve the court, they can only be idle or small positions with no real power.
"I am the emperor, so I naturally have ways to help the Yu family. My beloved concubine has worked hard for me and contributed a little to my father-in-law and brother-in-law, and I am also happy."
Tao Ran blinked and smiled like he was surprised. With such a good thing, he still begged for it and delivered it to his door with sweet words?
"Really? What can I do? What do you want me to do? Do you need me to recruit my father and brother to meet you?"
"No need. I have a lot of informants around me. It would be better for my concubine to convey it to them."
"Your Majesty, please tell me."
"My beloved concubine, please listen to me and tell me slowly. As long as you follow my arrangements, maybe my beloved concubine can take a step forward?..."
…
On that day, the emperor once again approached Prince Heng and four ministers who took care of their lives.
"I know I was wrong!"
"Oh?" Several elders were very cold.
"Concubine Qiu is kind to me, and I cannot break my promise and kill her, but Concubine Qiu has already exerted influence on the country, and as the king of a country, I cannot leave the country alone. I am indeed in a dilemma between love and justice, so after careful consideration, I plan to take Concubine Qiu away. She was granted a title and sent to the Royal Ganlu Temple to practice."
The emperor bowed deeply and obeyed respectfully.
"I will go and apologize to the queen later. From now on, I will definitely not let you worry about me. I will treat the queen well. I will stop messing around, live up to the teachings of your elders, and won't let my father down!"
It was rare for the emperor to be willing to back down, and his attitude was sincere, so the old men couldn't refuse to give him a chance.
So, several people decided at the same time to see how the emperor performed. "I will wait for the Emperor to come to court tomorrow...
The emperor sent Ye Ruqiu out of the palace that day.
Probably to show his attitude and determination, facing the crying Ye Ruqiu, the emperor did not show his face, and was particularly determined, allowing Ye Ruqiu to leave the palace despite the concubine's difficulties and the palace servants' scolding.
After that, the emperor went to Kunning Palace. Although the queen did not stay, the emperor insisted on having a meal there. Even though the atmosphere was not very good, the emperor's posture was extremely low.
After that, the emperor went to Yikun Palace, visited the noble concubine, and stayed at the concubine's place that night.
In the next few days, the emperor went to court on time and often visited the queen and concubine. At night, there was rain and dew. The earlier emperor seemed to be back...
Three days later, the death day of the late emperor arrived.
According to the rules, the emperor would take hundreds of officials to the Ancestral Temple to perform sacrifices.
On this day, a mighty procession headed to the Ancestral Temple early in the morning, surrounded by people.
Who told the recent emperor to be at the forefront?
According to folk rumors, the emperor had absorbed enough dragon energy from the demon concubine. Now he was depressed, his hall was darkened, and he was weak and weak. So everyone wanted to see the emperor's true appearance at this time, so there was a huge crowd of people on the road, with three floors inside and three floors outside.
The emperor wanted to restore the people's support, so he discussed with his ministers and did not clear the way.
So along the way, people's comments kept getting into the emperor's ears.
To say that he had been hollowed out by the demon concubine, he had already lost his dragon luck.
It is also said that the spirit of the late emperor in heaven will regret it if he sees the emperor today.
There are even more people who remember the heroic demeanor of the late emperor in the past, how he was a hero when he was at home and abroad...
Jokes, sarcasm, sighs, and all kinds of sarcastic comments filled the emperor's ears, but there was no admiration, respect, and love.
The emperor was very angry.
How unreasonable!
He is the emperor, the one who wishes them peace and happiness, but these ignorant people are so heartless and unjust.
He is angry! He even secretly vowed that he must regain his glory and convince these people! He is much stronger than his father! We’ll see!
The journey that was supposed to take less than half an hour, actually took almost an hour and was just over halfway. For this, the imperial guards had to clear the way, and the officers and soldiers of the Jingwei Yamen tried their best to maintain order on the road.
The road was too congested and various situations occurred several times along the way.
No, the front is blocked again.
Originally, all the carriages and horses on the road were parked in the surrounding alleys. Unexpectedly, the horses in the alley in front were probably frightened by the noise, and somehow broke their reins and rushed out.
As soon as the horse came out of the alley, it was even more difficult to calm down when it saw the dense crowd, and it actually ran directly into the crowd.
Suddenly, dozens of feet away in front, people fell on their backs, wailing and mourning.
The crowd was hit, and everyone hurriedly dodged, causing a stampede.
People pressed against each other and they fell into one piece.
In order to show his love for the people, the emperor stuck his head out of the carriage and gave orders to the imperial guards:
"Quickly subdue Crazy Horse! Protect the people with all your strength!"
The Royal Guards quickly began to maintain order.
Everyone's attention was focused on the chaotic area ahead.
Who would have thought that at this moment, a cold arrow would suddenly arrive.
There were twenty or thirty arrows, shooting straight at the emperor's carriage from all directions.
How dangerous!
The emperor stuck his head out and was almost hit by an arrow!
The palace guards surrounding the carriage were all paying attention to the stampede ahead, and when they were not prepared, several people were hit in an instant.
And the second round of arrow rain has arrived.
At this time, thanks to the concubine's brother Yu Hong, he fell from the sky.
While shouting "Escort", he led his Jingwei brothers forward and formed a circle of protection around the carriage as quickly as possible.
Yu Hong jumped on the carriage shaft and placed his shield on the carriage window with one hand to prevent bows and arrows from breaking through the window. With the other hand, he danced the long sword in his hand in an airtight manner, blocking the incoming arrows from multiple directions as much as possible.
The guards returned to defend themselves. When the assassins saw that the opportunity was lost, they fled over the walls one after another...
Finally, the danger was saved.
The Royal Forest Army all dispatched to capture the assassin...
"Is the emperor okay?" Yu Hong knelt down.
"Yu Aiqing's hard work will be rewarded!"
…
This is the emperor's method.
assassin? He is pretending to be his bodyguard.
He just wants to use this method to make the people he trusts rise quickly.
Assassination? Anyway, many times recently.
Starting from the assassination of the imperial concubine, he happened to use it as an excuse again and again. No one would doubt it, but it would just let the world see that he, the emperor, was much more difficult than they thought! To this day, there are still people who are eyeing the throne and spare no effort to assassinate him.
