Not to mention that Concubine Zhou's idea is unrealistic, just saying that the Queen received the news, she was almost out of breath.
"Xiao Tianyao, you, you are deceiving people too much!" The queen sat up suddenly, her face twisted, her hands tightly clutching the quilt, barely restraining her murderous anger.
"Niangniang, what should we do now?" The always prudent old mama panicked at this time.
This is an era when imperial power is paramount. With an edict, even if their empresses have the ability to turn the sky, they will not be able to turn over this small Luanfeng Palace.
"King Xiao has already made a move, how can this palace be worthy of him if he doesn't accept the move!" The Queen said through gritted teeth.
"Niangniang?" The old lady had a bad premonition.
"Dongwen has been peaceful for so long, so there should be some natural and man-made disasters." The queen's face was gloomy, revealing a murderous aura, the old mama shook a bit, and after she stabilized her mind, she said, "Niangniang, do you want to..."
The queen thought for a moment and said, "Let the people in the south..."
However, before she could finish her words, a little eunuch hurried over: "Miss, something big, something big!"
"What's the panic? Tell me if you have something to do." The queen froze in her heart, but her face was calm.
She was about to close the palace to reflect, if she didn't act calmly at this time, the people below would be in chaos.
"Niangniang, Xin'anjiang suddenly burst its embankment and scattered the people of the imperial embassy. According to the news from Tianzang Pavilion, the little prince who was in the embassy has disappeared!" At the end, the little eunuch cried.
They are all the Queen's confidants, and they know very well what the arrival of the imperial embassy represents.
"What? Xin'an River burst its dyke? How could it burst if it was good?" The queen sat on the bed as if struck by lightning, and then laughed loudly: "When the envoy arrived in Dongwen, how could Xiao Tianyao not know, I underestimated, I underestimated him."
She always thought that Xiao Tianyao's power was in the capital, but she didn't expect that Xiao Tianyao's power was not small outside. Not only did she know the news of the mission's arrival so quickly, but she also disturbed the mission's way without knowing it.
"Even the Tianzang Pavilion dares to move, how could King Xiao have only one hole card, I miscalculated!" The little prince of the empire disappeared, the envoy was unable to reach the capital for a while, and King Xiao could continue to be arrogant.
"Niangniang, things may not be as bad as you and I thought. The little prince of the empire is missing, and there is no need to hide the whereabouts of the mission. People in the mission can directly say what they mean, which can also suppress the arrogance of King Xiao." This time he calmed down.
"Do you know why the people in the mission concealed their whereabouts?" The queen looked at the old mama, her eyes full of sadness: "It's not what they wanted, but the result of the game between several princes of the empire. Tianzang Pavilion said that the empire moved Xiao Tianyao, but some people want to protect him. The mission of the empire is here to bring Xiao Tianyao to the empire for questioning, not to punish him."
If the imperial mission came to cure Xiao Tianyao's crimes, then the people of the mission did not need to hide it at all, just announced it in a high-profile manner.
However, the people in the mission did not have that much power. They politely invited King Xiao to go to the empire for questioning. As for the result, it is hard to say.
Under such circumstances, the news that the mission had been sent out to take King Xiao away in advance not only did not have much effect, but instead gave Xiao Tianyao a chance to prepare.
Their original intention was that the envoy suddenly came to the capital and took Xiao Tianyao away without saying anything, leaving Xiao Tianyao with no preparation and no time to appease the people below.
In this way, the people of the Queen's faction can take the opportunity to snatch the resources in the hands of Xiao Wang, but I don't want to...
Seeing that he was about to arrive in the capital, such a thing happened.
"This is by no means an accident!" Thinking of what she had just thought, the queen became more and more certain that the Xin'an River burst was for human reasons.
"King Xiao, is this warning us?" The old mama had lingering fears.
When King Xiao made a series of shots, he was not just telling the Empress that he knew what they had done with Tianzang Yingyue.
"Whether he is a warning or a move, since King Xiao has made his move, we don't need to be polite. Hasn't the Xin'an River burst its dyke? Then let the diversion of the Yangtze River burst." The queen said without blinking. .
The old mama was shocked: "Niangniang, the Yangtze River is diverted and its dikes burst, and the people living nearby will suffer."
This is no less than the dyke of the Xin'an River. There are very few homes near the Xin'an River. There are only fertile fields, and this year's harvest is ruined.
"So what?" Obviously, the Queen Mother knew, but the old lady couldn't help persuading her: "Miss, the Yangtze River is too diverted, and the impact is too great. Once the embankment bursts, hundreds of thousands of people will be displaced. At that time... Dongwen is afraid that he will be unstable."
At that time, the people will not be able to eat enough to eat, and they will not be able to cover their bodies, which will inevitably lead to chaos.
"It's just that hundreds of thousands of people are making trouble, and my Dongwen's iron cavalry is still trampling on the homeless?" The queen didn't think it was difficult.
It's just ordinary people, if they dare to make trouble and kill them.
"Niangniang, in this way... His Royal Highness the seventh ascended the throne the next day, and the one who took over would be a mess." The old lady was not a queen. Before she entered the palace, she was just an ordinary peasant daughter. She had suffered hardships, and she knew the hardships of the people outside.
When the diversion of the Yangtze River bursts, how many people have to sell their sons and daughters!
"If it is a peaceful and prosperous world, how can I show my son's sage. I have made up my mind on this matter, and I must not persuade me any more."
Seeing this, the old mama had a thousand words, but she could only translate it into one sentence: "Old slave, this is what to do." Even if she lost her conscience, she would do it well.
"Go!" The Empress closed her eyes, her face slightly better.
Not long after the old mama left, the guards took the edict to seal the Luanfeng Palace, and the empress did not struggle, or even asked.
On the other hand, the seventh prince came in a hurry after receiving the news. Seeing that the Luanfeng Palace was sealed, he was going to Concubine De, crying and making trouble, completely losing his usual calmness.
Inside the hall, the Queen Mother heard the sound, but did not say a word, letting the Seventh Prince cry.
Her son is grown up and it's time for him to face it all alone!
Xiao Tianyao knew everything that happened outside the Luanfeng Palace, and also knew that the old lady that the Empress had to use had quietly gone out before the Luanfeng Palace was sealed.
However, Xiao Tianyao didn't mean to chase people back, just let people keep watching, and finally follow her to find the Queen's stronghold.
The power in the hands of the queen is too great, and the relationship behind it is intricate, even he can't figure out how many people the queen has, so he will let the queen dance these days.
This time, if it wasn't for the empress being aggressive, he wouldn't have taken out the edict and locked the empress.
Otherwise, it would not be beautiful to force the queen to jump over the wall and do something irrational...
