Rebirth of the Phoenix

The tide is surging

Three days later, with the help of Huaying, Ye Yingxian and Ying Rumeng disguised themselves as a well-known wealthy business couple in the city. They took a group of friends from the world and pulled a car full of New Year's goods to the West City Gate.

During this period, the capital was under strict vigilance, and several gates were heavily guarded, and those entering and leaving the city were strictly investigated.

Fortunately, the wealthy couple they pretended to be, they all went to the dangerous Shaanxi Pass to do New Year's goods business. Many soldiers guarding the gate recognized them and did not doubt them much, so they let them out of the city.

After leaving the city, they ran towards Gucheng as fast as possible.

Just two days after they left, another shocking news came from Li Yang: the emperor personally investigated the spies in Xiliang, and finally found that the enemy was located in Li Yang's base camp and sent people to destroy the stronghold, but he was seriously injured

, it takes several years of rest.

As soon as the news came out, the people in the capital were worried: King Xiaoyao died for his country, the emperor disappeared, and the emperor was seriously ill again. What should the court do now?

On this day, Ying Rushuang looked haggard, but she sat behind the curtain behind the dragon chaise in the court without losing her majesty, and said loudly: "The emperor is seriously ill and cannot attend court for two years, nor can she discuss with you all my dear friends.

The state affairs are underway. Before the emperor fell into a coma, the emperor told me to give the throne to King Jingrong. I think the country cannot be without a king for a day. This is a very good move. I wonder what your dear friends want?"

The ministers were in an uproar and there were many discussions.

In fact, at least half of this kind of argument is pretending.

Before Ying Rushuang raised this topic, she had already discussed secretly with her confidants in the court and the army, and revealed the news of establishing a new king to her party, so that the party would do what she wanted.

However, the news was so amazing that even if the empress dowager knew it, she would still have to stage a frightened scene in the court.

The royal relatives and royal relatives were naturally happy to hear the news, but they were also very suspicious: How could the Queen Mother do such a thing? Could it be that she was playing a conspiracy?

At present, the Empress Dowager's party pretended to express his opposition, while the royal family kept asking the reason for the emperor and the empress dowager's decision. Ying Rushuang was very patient and almost answered questions.

After a morning of trouble, the Empress Dowager's party finally expressed its understanding of the emperor's difficulties and expressed its agreement. Although the royal family was still worried, they felt that they could not miss this opportunity and expressed their agreement.

In this way, the emperor abdicated due to illness and King Jingrong ascended the throne was decided.

After the morning court, all the ministers expressed their desire to visit the emperor. Ying Rushuang said, "The emperor is still in a coma and likes to rest. All my dear friends have gone, and it will disturb the emperor. You can choose a few people as representatives.

So?"

Everyone knew that there must be something wrong with this matter, and it was difficult to sing a counter-topic with the Queen Mother. In the end, they selected five or six important officials and followed the Queen Mother to Zichen Palace.

Walking to the gate of Zichen Palace, Ying Rushuang was calm and said, "I'm not hiding it from you, the emperor is missing and I don't know when he will return, so I want to establish a new king. You can spread this news and force me to make it a matter of not being able to do anything.

Can you do it if you don’t want the emperor?”

Now, the royal relative was shocked and kept asking questions. Ying Rushuang insisted that the emperor was captured by the spy and his whereabouts were unknown. The few people on the royal relative could not ask any inside information. In the end, she stopped asking.

It is proposed to hold the new emperor's throne ceremony as soon as possible.

Ying Rushuang said, "This is natural. According to my view, how will it be held in the fifteenth day?"

The new emperor ascended the throne usually takes several months to prepare, and half a month is a little hasty, but now, she is worried about Qingge's safety, while the royal family is afraid that there will be more dreams in the night. Both sides hope this

The ceremony can be held soon.

Therefore, Weiguo said justice: "The whole country is mourning when the royal family suffered misfortunes. According to me, this ceremony of the throne should be simple and not to be a big deal."

Everyone nodded.

Ying Rushuang said, "I thought so too. However, I am exhausted and unable to organize the throne ceremony. I want to ask Duke Wei to be fully responsible for this matter. I wonder what Duke Wei wants?"

This proposal was in line with Duke Wei's thoughts.

Duke Wei Guo immediately said: "I understand the Empress Dowager's mood, and ask the Empress Dowager to focus on finding the emperor. All the matters of the new king ascending the throne will be left to me, and I will definitely do it properly.

”

Ying Rushuang said: "This palace thanks Duke Wei for his behalf."

After a few more greetings between the two sides, several ministers said goodbye and left.

Duke Wei took two ministers to one side, and the other three ministers to the other side, and they did not plan to each other.

After walking away, a minister asked Duke Wei: "Duke Wei thinks the Queen Mother's plan is there?"

The Empress Dowager loves power as her life, how could she establish a new emperor just because the emperor disappeared?

According to her personality, if the emperor is not here, she can take over the power and be proud of her. How can she give up the imperial power?

Even if she has to establish a new king, she will not choose the King Jingrong who has always been arrogant and disagree with her, right?

Conspiracy! She must be planning some conspiracy!

Duke Wei sneered: "I care about her plan. In short, it is certain that King Jingrong ascends the throne! I will go to King Jingrong now and discuss with him how to deal with the queen mother. In short, we must do a good job of fighting.

Preparation for war.”

Two ministers who were in the same party as him were shocked: "Warning a war? Will this be the case?"

Weiguo is fair: "Be prepared for any trouble. Since ancient times, if you want to consolidate the throne, you must have soldiers. We have to send more of our own soldiers to the capital, and we must also protect King Jingrong with all our might. As long as King Jingrong becomes the emperor, we can command the soldiers of the world.

If there is a person who disobeys the order, he will resist the king and treason. Even if he fights, the people's hearts will be on our side. We have nothing to be afraid of."

The minister said: "If we send more troops to the capital, wouldn't the Empress Dowager notice our actions?"

Duke Wei sneered again: "There are heavy troops in the capital, but King Xiaoyao, the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor still have a series of accidents. Why not be right for us to transfer troops into the capital on the grounds of protecting the capital and the Emperor? If she interferes heavily in this matter and reacts violently.

, that proves that she has a ghost in her heart. In this way, we can understand her conspiracy, and this is not a bad thing."

King Jingrong is talented, ambitious, arrogant and unruly. He is not the one who can listen to women. He is sitting on the dragon throne. The Ye clan is satisfied. However, it is not only Duke Wei, but all the knowledgeable ministers.

Everyone thinks this is not that simple.

The Empress Dowager must have other plans for this move. What are her plans?

Duke Wei was uneasy only when he thought about it, and always felt that something big would happen.

In order to ensure that this is going smoothly, he believes that no matter how extreme the action is taken, it is not an exaggeration.

The other ministers thought about it and said, "We will also go to visit King Jingrong with Duke Wei, multiple people and multiple ideas."

The three of them went to the Jingrong Palace.

According to the logic, King Jingrong also had to attend the morning court every day, but King Jingrong could not stand the weakness of the emperor and the strength of the empress dowager, and often found various reasons not to attend the court. Therefore, he was not aware of this important decision this morning.

.

In the palace, Ying Jinghong asked Ying Rushuang in a low voice: "Empress, half a month is enough to prepare?"'

Ying Rushuang said lightly: "Enough. Although this matter was decided temporarily, I have always believed that there will be this day, so I have planted and trained so many generals in the army. I believe that these generals can fight at any time.

.”

The day she received the letter that threatened her by Qingge, she decided to take the initiative. While inquiring about Qingge's whereabouts, she arranged for King Jingrong to ascend the throne. At the same time, she secretly prepared to wash the Ye family.

Inside and outside the capital, including the Great Inside Guards, Imperial Guards and Garages, there were a total of 150,000 troops. Most of these 150,000 troops were under her control - many people did not know this secret, Ye Family

No matter what you do, it is impossible to defeat the army that is loyal to her.

Even if the Ye family transferred troops from outside the capital to Beijing, it would not have much effect. First, the fifteen days were too short to transfer the army. Second, there was war on the frontier, and Xiliang was eyeing him, who would dare to transfer troops from the border to return.

Beijing?

She believed that the Ye family cared about this country more than she did, so the Ye family would never easily use the border army.

In fact, even if the Ye family wants to transfer troops from the border, she is not afraid, because the God of War is her lover and will definitely stand on her side. At the same time, there are many people in the film family who serve in the army. No matter what she thinks, she thinks

His own faction has greater power in the military.

So, how could she lose?

Why is she afraid of fighting this battle?

She asked Duke Wei to handle the matter of King Jingrong's ascension to the throne, which was to reduce the guardianship of the Ye clan and distract their attention. The second was to make more time for herself to secretly design traps and dispatch soldiers and generals.

, be sure to kill King Jingrong and his followers after finding Qingge.

She didn't even tell her the idea of ​​"rebellion".

The fewer people know about this, the better.

She whispered to Ying Jinghong, and walked to Langhuan Palace unknowingly.

In front of Langhuan Palace, an old eunuch was standing by the door with his head down, as if waiting for someone.

Seeing her coming, she immediately jogged over and panted with breathing from the ancestor: "Subor Taihe, please pay tribute to the Empress Dowager--"

Ying Rushuang saw him and her tone was much more relaxed: "Taihe, is there something wrong with you when you look for me?"

Taihe is already in his eighties and is the oldest eunuch in the palace. He has served the emperor for decades, is honest, restrained and kind, and does not know how to get benefits for himself. He has been a regular eunuch for decades. I feel that

It's a bit pitiful, but because of his personality, he can live safely until now and never get involved in any disaster.

Ying Rushuang has eliminated many people around Ye Beihuang, but she has never been blacklisted for this old eunuch.

No matter what, there are always a few people who have left Ye Beihuang's slaves so that they will not lose their word.

Taihe wiped his tears and said, "Five days later, it will be the seventh prince of Xiaoyao. The servant thought that Xiaoyao had not yet married and had a child, so he went there early. Even the Supreme Emperor might not know about this. He felt uncomfortable.

I would like to ask the Empress Dowager to send you off to Prince Xiaoyao on the day of Weiqi..."

According to folk customs, after a person dies, the first seven souls will return to his soul and the last seven souls will return to his soul.

Ying Rushuang forgot it. Five days later, it will be the 49th day after King Xiaoyao's death. That day will be when King Xiaoyao's soul returns to heaven, and relatives should "send" him to return.
