Chapter 59 Iron Blood Dragon Might
"Empress Dowager!" Meng Changqing hurried into Ren'an Palace and knelt on the ground with a plop. "Empress Dowager, something happened outside!"
The air froze.
A noble woman sitting next to the empress dowager turned her head. Her hair was full of pearl hairpins, and she looked gorgeous and radiant. Seeing Meng Changqing's panic, her heart skipped a beat: "Eunuch Meng, what happened?"
As the chief eunuch next to the empress dowager in Ren'an Palace, Meng Changqing has always been calm and steady. The rules of Ren'an Palace are strict, and no one dares to lose their composure like this.
It is rare to be so flustered today.
The woman who spoke was over 40 years old, but she was well maintained, with fair and tender skin. The cream she used every year was priceless. She looked less than 30 years old. She was the concubine Yun in the harem, the biological mother of the current prince.
The empress dowager looked indifferent: "What happened?"
Meng Changqing looked terrified: "The emperor ordered the prince and the king to take the imperial guards to the mansion of the loyal marquis, saying that they were going to confiscate...confiscate the house..."
What?
The Queen Mother's eyes suddenly narrowed, and her expression became a little colder: "Are you joking?"
Joking?
"I dare not." Meng Changqing shook his head hurriedly. He would never dare to joke about such things. "What I said is all true. Please understand, Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother sat up straight, her voice as cold as ice, "Why?"
Meng Changqing replied carefully: "I heard that a minister submitted a memorial to impeach."
"What did they impeach?"
"I don't know." Meng Changqing shook his head slowly, "The news has been blocked. I felt that the atmosphere in the palace was not right today, so I sent someone to inquire about it, and then I learned the news."
After a pause, Meng Changqing added: "The prince and the king have been gone for an hour. Even if they want to do something now, I'm afraid it's too late. It's too late. "
The Queen Mother was silent for a long time, her eyes were full of color, and her tone was cold and sarcastic: "It seems that the emperor is going to completely break up with me."
"Queen Mother." Concubine Yun showed fear on her face, "Why did the emperor..."
"The specific reason is still unknown." The Queen Mother frowned, and there was a ray of anger in her eyes, "But the emperor has wanted to do this for a long time. He never dared to take this step before. What I need to figure out this time is who gave him such courage and courage. "
Because of Ji Weiyu's poisoning, the emperor was furious and irritable during this period, and he lost his temper at any time. The ministers were trembling every day when they went to court.
The Queen Mother knew it.
But she always thought that losing temper was just a manifestation of incompetence.
She never thought that the emperor would dare to really take action against the people around her-this seemed to mean to declare war on her head-on.
Concubine Yun was silent, feeling uneasy for no reason.
She knew that the emperor did not like her and the prince because they were on the Queen Mother's side.
If the emperor is really determined to turn against the queen mother this time, then it will not only be the loyal marquis who will be involved, she and the prince will not be spared either - unless the queen mother finally takes control of power again and the emperor is sidelined.
But this is not easy.
The ministers of the royalist faction in the court are all tough and fearless. Although they are all civil officials, civil officials can hold up half the sky. The queen mother's biggest support is Tang Guojiu's Jingji Guard. Unless they really send troops - that is a real rebellion, then they still have a chance of success.
Concubine Yun sat stiffly in the chair. Rebellion must be a river of blood.
The air in Ren'an Palace condensed and suppressed for a long time. The queen mother said coldly: "Call Yan Zhen."
Yan Zhen is the commander of the vanguard camp of the imperial guards. He is loyal to the queen mother and is the best knife in front of the queen mother - Yan Zhen's younger brother Yan Wei is one of the queen mother's male favorites. He is the marquis of Jinyang. He is currently on a diplomatic mission and will return to the palace soon.
