"Master, I have inquired about it. Although most of the people couldn't explain clearly, I still heard something. It seems that the king sent someone to assassinate the emperor. The queen also intervened. He would die so simply, this matter happened to be discovered by Concubine Shu who was guarding outside that night, and it has already caused trouble."
"The people from Xiangwang's Mansion had no time to escape. When they were caught, the queen was still in the emperor's bedroom. Then the people from Xiangwang's mansion said that the queen killed them. The queen said that the people from Xiangwang's mansion killed them. Dogs bit dogs. Zui Mao, the king and queen are locked up now, and they are going to deal with this matter after the emperor's funeral is over."
Lanning said.
Ning Xueyan frowned, and sighed slightly. The empress wanted to kill the emperor. She knew it very well since the empress let Princess Xianyun enter the palace, but it was Ao Mingyu who wanted to kill the emperor. Unexpectedly, although the emperor is Ao Chenyi's opponent, he has been deliberately assassinating Ao Chenyi.
But for Ao Mingyu, Ao Mingwan is still good, especially Ao Mingyu, he should be the future heir he has determined wholeheartedly, so he will teach him wholeheartedly, but this time, he would suddenly assassinate the emperor, it is really a shame Unexpectedly, it would be worse than a pig or a dog to assassinate the father who loved him so much.
Then came the period of national mourning, when the whole country mourned, and after Ao Chenyi came to the throne, just before the emperor's coffin, the ministers bowed down to Ao Chenyi.
Although there is no decree this time, the position of the crown prince Ao Chenyi has been recognized by the two emperors, so there is no objection at all. Besides, Annan is still fighting with others, and there is no strong emperor. I can't afford this mess, under such circumstances, it is most suitable for Ao Chenyi to ascend to the throne of God.
So after the funeral was Ao Chenyi's enthronement ceremony, because the emperor's situation at that time was not very good, so the veterans had already prepared for it. Although the incident happened suddenly, the basic etiquette was well prepared. The war between the three kings of Annan is also in a stalemate.
When the war started, it was presided over by Ao Chenyi, and now it is still Ao Chenyi, so it can't be considered a big change in the rear. The death of the emperor has no effect on the front, and Ao Chenyi's strength in the military is not small, so he Ascending to the emperor, it is still relatively severe to be harsh on the military.
For a time, the war became more intense.
Ning Xueyan's enthronement ceremony was held together with Ao Chenyi's enthronement ceremony, and the reason why it was held together was because Ao Chenyi said: "There is a war ahead, and there is not so much time to hold the enthronement ceremony. Having no master in the harem is also the way to create chaos."
As a result, the ministers seconded their proposals one after another.
Ning Xueyan became a queen, so naturally she moved from Concubine Yi to the Imperial Palace. She had never lived in the Eastern Palace before, so such a move was considered a one-step process.
Ao Chenyi didn't bring other women into the palace, because everything should be reduced during the war. Those aunts who were in the mansion before him still stayed in the Yi Palace. When all the concubines were dismissed, they stayed at will. Those few were originally his own subordinates, just to avoid the emperor's eyes and ears, and now they can't be used anymore, so naturally they all left the Yiwang Mansion early, but speaking of it outside, they are still in the Yiwang Mansion .
Princess Xianyun is still in the East Palace, her leg is still hurt, and of course it is not convenient to cry in front of the coffin. At this time, when she was confined in the East Palace for the same reason, she could not go anywhere except the garden.
Everything seems to have come to an end, except for the war with Annan, but when Ning Xueyan received the queen's letter, she changed into simple clothes and went to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. It has been determined that he will be beheaded after autumn.
"You're here!" In the cell, the queen looked haggard, only wearing a plain white dress, and looked calmly at Ning Xueyan who was walking slowly, with neither sadness nor joy on her face.
Ning Xueyan nodded and said nothing.
"Do you think it's strange, why should I kill the emperor?" There was a wry smile on the queen's face.
"It's not surprising, haven't you always wanted to conspire with Princess Xianyun?" Ning Xueyan shook her head lightly.
The two of them should be plotting their own husbands and husbands separately, so as to achieve the goal of making money for the fisherman.
"Do you know how the former queen mother died? She was strangled to death by the emperor with white silk. She strangled the queen mother to death in front of me. I begged him, begged him to let the queen mother go, I beg him to let the Queen Mother let her go because the Queen Mother supports him to ascend to the throne, and because the Queen Mother wholeheartedly supports him, but he still wants to kill the Queen Mother."
The queen's voice trembled a little, she seemed to see the empress dowager's unrepentant face, her eyes widened with hatred, but she, the queen, would only sit on the ground beside her and cry loudly, hugging her. He hugged the emperor's leg and begged him for mercy, but he watched helplessly as the queen mother died under his hands, but he sent someone to bring her to watch the execution.
To warn her not to think in vain.
Ning Xueyan didn't speak, she waited quietly for the queen to continue, she knew the empress dowager's death early in the morning. He died, and then the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion was defeated. Could it be that the Marquis of An's Mansion was defeated only because of the Queen Mother
"Who would have imagined that the filial son emperor who has been rumored outside would actually kill the queen mother by such means, but I, the queen, have also received a warning. If it is not the son I raised since childhood, I must not It's useless to think that after he ascends the throne, he will value your aunt, even if your aunt helps him ascend to the throne, so what!"
The queen remembered that afternoon, she was sitting alone in a corner of the queen mother's palace, quietly looking at the stiff and hideous corpse of the queen mother, trembling with fear, no one came in, because the emperor ordered her to serve inside Suddenly the queen mother who was seriously ill was born.
It was only in the evening that the news of the Empress Dowager's sudden illness and death came out.
And in that afternoon, she was frightened at first, then flustered, and at the end she had a kind of hopeless composure.
She will not follow the old path of the queen mother, she will never follow the old path of the queen mother, she must survive, not only survive, but also firmly grasp her own rights, she is the queen, the mother of a country, In the future, it must be a queen mother, and a queen mother in power.
Don't make wedding dresses for others anymore, it's cheaper for others in vain.
"Afterwards, you found an opportunity to lobby An Guohou's Mansion and Princess Xianyun?" Ning Xueyan asked after pondering for a while.
Everyone knows that the empress's natal family is weak, but the empress is related to the empress dowager, and if the empress dowager died in the hands of the emperor, then there should be a grudge between the Marquis of Anguo and the emperor. On the other hand, it shouldn't be too difficult to lobby An Guohou's mansion.
"Yes, I told the people in the Marquis of An Guo's Mansion about the Queen Mother's death, so the Marquis of An Guo's Mansion stood by me wholeheartedly. It's just that a lot of people died in the Marquis of An Guo's Mansion when the emperor ascended the throne. Then the emperor consciously removed a few people, who were not strong enough to do it, and entrusted me to the same position as the first empress dowager."
The queen closed her eyes, and suppressed the anger in her heart. She only had hatred for the emperor. Why did other women give birth to their own children, but she didn't? It wasn't because of an accident. , she was never pregnant at all, and later she secretly left the palace.
An Guohou's mansion found a famous doctor for her, and he looked at her, saying that her body could not give birth to a child at all, and she had been cut off from her children. At that moment, she wanted the emperor's life, and she wanted to put The emperor strangled to death, watching the end of the first queen mother, but the emperor wanted to watch himself, and go the same way.
She doesn't want to, she doesn't want to.
Therefore, she wanted to adopt a son born to another concubine, but as soon as this idea was mentioned, the emperor unceremoniously dismissed it.
That means that she must catch up with the old queen mother's old path. She is not willing, she will never be caught without a fight, so she takes a fancy to Princess Xianyun, and this Princess Xianyun is also ambitious, The two hit it off.
"So, you killed the emperor?" Ning Xueyan asked with a complicated expression. She couldn't express how she felt about the queen now. She was a little helpless and unscrupulous. It seemed that she was forced to this road by the emperor again. But no matter what, she and Princess Xianyun are the ones who want to harm her.
However, she still finds it strange that killing the emperor at this time doesn't seem to be of any benefit, Princess Xianyun can't move, and it's useless for her to kill the emperor.
"Yes, I killed him, that devil, he woke up, he woke up, he woke up and wanted to strangle me, I... I hate him, I want to strangle him... I want to kill him!"
The queen became agitated all of a sudden, stretched out her hand to hold the railing on one side, her eyes widened, and she said in hatred.
She hated him, she wished that he would die immediately, at that time, she was sitting beside him, looking at the unconscious emperor, she wanted to reach out to kill him several times, once and for all, but every time, she stopped and told herself that now was not the time, It's not yet time, wait, wait, maybe there will be a chance.
Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly woke up at this time, and at that time her hand was just on his neck. Seeing the queen's hand, the emperor was stunned for a while, and then subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch the queen's hand. Pulling her down, the emperor's hand just happened to land on the queen's neck.
So, without saying a word, the two of them just wrestled into a ball and fell off the dragon bed. In the end, the emperor was weak for a long time, and was covered by the quilt by the crazy queen, who was blinded to death. The queen sat in a corner While Li was panting, Xiangwang's men appeared and directly slashed at the emperor with a knife...
"So, is this an accident?" Ning Xueyan asked softly. After listening to the Queen's words, she realized why the Queen, who was so careful and careful, missed the last step. It was just an accident. No wonder it was said that Huanghe and Ao Mingyu murdered the emperor together.
The emperor is dead, and there are pinch marks on the neck of the queen, and the sword marks of the assassins of Xiangwang's mansion, no matter which one is killed.
Of course, this is not the queen's main purpose for coming to Ning Xueyan, what she wants to say to Ning Xueyan is another matter.
