Chapter 166: Your Majesty, there is something going on with the Prince of Shu and the Prime Minister.

Prince Shu's Mansion.

Meeting hall.

The atmosphere was a bit tense.

The Queen Mother gave the order, but she didn't expect that the people who walked into the meeting hall were not the Queen Mother's people, but Ji Wusheng and San De.

Ji Wusheng and Sande walked into the meeting hall with more than ten guards from the Shu Palace and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I made the decision on my own without permission for those who followed the Queen Mother out of the palace, so I asked them to retreat and rest first."

"If the Queen Mother orders anything, I can do it."

Ji Wusheng knelt down and said.

When the Queen Mother heard this, her expression immediately changed.

How could the Queen Mother not hear the profound meaning of Ji Wusheng's words?

What made those who followed her, the Queen Mother, retreat to rest.

This clearly controlled the people who followed her, the Queen Mother, out of the palace.

Especially Ji Wusheng's last words made the Queen Mother furious.

"Bold."

"How dare you control the people of the Ai family? Do you still want to imprison the Ai family?"

The Queen Mother's phoenix eyebrows stood up, and her face was filled with frost as she glared at Ji Wusheng and the others who were kneeling on the ground.

Ji Wusheng asked her, the queen mother, to give her orders, and they could do it.

Doesn't this mean to restrict the freedom of the Queen Mother?

The Queen Mother never expected that Ji Wusheng and others would dare to control the staff of her Queen Mother, and also want to restrict her Queen Mother's freedom.

It's just so cowardly.

"The Queen Mother forgives me. I know that I have offended the Queen Mother and I am guilty."

"But the great cause of the King of Shu is about to begin, so as not to disturb the Queen Mother, I kindly ask the Queen Mother to stay in the Prince of Shu's Mansion temporarily."

"I'll go back to the palace tomorrow."

Ji Wusheng said loudly...

"I sincerely ask the Queen Mother to stay in the Shu Palace for now and return to the palace tomorrow."

Santoku and more than a dozen other guards kneeling on the ground also said in unison.

After hearing what Ji Wusheng and the others said, and seeing the attitude of Ji Wusheng and the others, the Queen Mother's face was filled with anger, and her brain went blank for a moment.

This is no more pleading.

This is clearly coercion.

"King Shu, you...you dare to threaten and coerce the Ai family."

"you……."

The Queen Mother pointed at the King of Shu, and before she could finish speaking, she fainted on the chair.

"Mother."

When Zhou Zhi saw the Queen Mother fell on the chair, his expression changed drastically, he got up and rushed to the Queen Mother's side.

The old eunuch Wu Gu was faster than the King of Shu.

Rushing to the Queen Mother's side, Zhou Zhi and the old eunuch hurriedly investigated the Queen Mother's situation.

Zhou Zhi and the old eunuch breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the Queen Mother only fainted because of her anger and there were no other major problems.

Zhou Zhi turned around and looked at Ji Wusheng and the others who were kneeling on the ground with a gloomy expression.

At this moment, Ji Wusheng and the others' faces were also a little pale.

If something happened to the Queen Mother because of their actions, then they would all be doomed.

"Ji Wusheng, you are so brave."

"Who told you to do this?"

Zhou Zhi looked at Ji Wusheng and the others and said gloomily.

"Your Majesty, we have offended the Queen Mother, and we are guilty."

"But the prince has a big event coming soon, so there can't be any mistakes."

"The Queen Mother came out of the palace and came to the Prince of Shu's Mansion. This is the best God-given opportunity."

"I, Ji Wusheng, know that I have made the decision without permission and am guilty of offending the Queen Mother. I would like to ask the prince to wait for today and then punish me."

Ji Wusheng knelt on the ground and said with his head bowed.

Coercing the Queen Mother is a no small crime, and Ji Wusheng knows it better than anyone.

But Ji Wusheng had no choice.

If he doesn't do this, then the relationship between the Queen Mother and the King of Shu still doesn't know how to end today!

We can't let the King of Shu personally order and coerce the Queen Mother!

Therefore, only Ji Wusheng, who was Zhou Zhi's right-hand man, could do this and share Zhou Zhi's worries about this matter.

Take the blame for Zhou Zhi.

Even San De, the steward of the Prince of Shu's Mansion, was not qualified to take care of Zhou Zhi's worries.

This is the biggest difference between internal slaves and foreign ministers.

After hearing Ji Wusheng's words, Zhou Zhi's eyes flashed with a sullen face.

After a while.

"That's all, let's send the Queen Mother down to rest first, and find a doctor to check on the Queen Mother. We can't make anything go wrong."

Zhou Zhi waved his hand and said.

If it weren't for Ji Wusheng, Zhou Zhi really doesn't know how it would have ended.

As a son-in-law, he can't directly force his mother and queen!

Fortunately, Ji Wusheng took care of this matter for him, which made him feel relieved.

However, although the Queen Mother was so angry that she fainted, in order to avoid any problems, Zhou Zhi still had to let the doctors take a look before he could rest assured.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

San De quickly stood up, summoned several maids who were waiting on the Queen Mother, and sent the Queen Mother down to rest.

After the Queen Mother was sent down, Zhou Zhi looked at Ji Wusheng who was kneeling; "Ji Wusheng, you have offended the Queen Mother. I will deal with you after today."

"Now notify the people of the three major aristocratic families and start making arrangements!"

"It just so happens that the Queen Mother has left the palace, making it easier for us to enter the palace."

Zhou Zhi said majestically.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ji Wusheng's eyes flashed and he immediately understood what Zhou Zhi meant.

…

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo sat on the main seat, frowning slightly as he listened to the report from the butler in front of him.

The Queen Mother left the palace and went to the Shu Palace?

Prime Minister Yuan Bo's eyes flickered.

At this critical juncture, any unusual changes may bring unexpected consequences.

Therefore, Prime Minister Yuan Bo has been paying attention to all the activities inside and outside the palace and court these days.

When the Queen Mother left the palace to go to the Prince of Shu's Mansion, she naturally could not hide it from the Prime Minister Yuan Bo.

"What is the Queen Mother doing at this time when she leaves the palace to go to Prince Shu's Mansion?"

Prime Minister Yuan Bo frowned and thought.

At this moment, a figure appeared silently in the hall.

"Master, there is news from the King of Shu." The figure said and sent a note to Prime Minister Yuan Bo.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo took the note from the other party's hand, opened it and glanced at it.

After reading the content on the note, Prime Minister Yuan Bo immediately looked at the housekeeper and said, "Butler, go and notify the Zheng family and the Fan family immediately!"

…

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Zhou Chen sat on the dragon throne, looking at a piece of paper in his hand, frowning slightly.

The content of the note only contained one sentence: 'The Queen Mother left the palace and went to the Prince of Shu's Mansion.'

This was just delivered to Zhou Chen by the internal servant and factory guard.

Zhou Chen didn't expect that the Queen Mother actually left the palace and went to the Prince of Shu's Mansion.

This made Zhou Chen a little uncertain.

Why did the Queen Mother go to Shu Prince's Mansion?

You know, the Queen Mother rarely leaves the palace.

If the Queen Mother wanted to see the King of Shu, the Queen Mother would directly summon the King of Shu into the palace every time, and would never leave the palace to go to the King of Shu's palace in person.

Why did the Queen Mother leave the palace to go to the Shu Palace today?

And it’s still at this sensitive time.

Zhou Chen frowned and thought.

Just then, a house guard walked in.

"Your Majesty, Governor Cao Shaoqin wishes to see you." the chamberlain guard reported.

"Let him in."

Zhou Chen temporarily put down the note in his hand and said something.

The house guard and factory guard bowed and retreated.

After a moment, Cao Shaoqin walked in in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, there is something going on with the Prince of Shu's Mansion and the Prime Minister."

"This is all the news that Dongchang received in a timely manner."

"Your Majesty, please take a look."

After Cao Shaoqin walked into the Yangxin Hall, he hurriedly sent the news in his hand to Zhou Chen.

Well!

Zhou Chen was shocked.

Seeing Cao Shaoqin in such a hurry, Zhou Chen knew that the other party might be about to take action.

Zhou Chen quickly took the news from Dongchang from Cao Shaoqin's hand and read it.

really.

Just as Zhou Chen guessed, these news from Dongchang all prove that the other party has started to take action.

After reading the news from Dongchang, Zhou Chen's face looked a little uncertain.

It's not that Zhou Chen couldn't suppress the other party, but Zhou Chen was thinking that the other party would take action as soon as the Queen Mother left the palace and went to the Prince of Shu's Mansion.

What exactly is going on here?

"Cao Shaoqin, immediately send an order to the Marquis of Wei Wu and the Minister of War to let them act according to the plan."

"If anything happens to the Shenwu Guards and the City Guards, then they don't have to come to see me anymore."

Zhou Chen pondered for a moment and said directly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Cao Shaoqin bowed and said.

"besides."

"Let Jin He come to see me immediately."

"Inform Du Ruhui and Liu Ye that the Eight Wise Kings will enter the palace immediately."

Zhou Chen said again.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cao Shaoqin bowed again.

"Go for it!"

Zhou Chen waved his hand.

Cao Shaoqin left the Yangxin Hall.

After Cao Shaoqin left, Zhou Chen's face darkened.

It was originally planned well, but now that the Queen Mother left the palace and went to the Shu Palace, such an accident happened.

This forced Zhou Chen to immediately summon Du Ruhui and others into the palace to discuss the matter.

…

It doesn't take a while to do the exercises.

A golden crane in armor walked into the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart.

"The general has finally met His Majesty."

After Jin He walked into the Yangxin Hall, he bowed to Zhou Chen respectfully.

Zhou Chen looked up at Jin He and said directly, "Have you arranged all the things I asked you to arrange before?"

"Reporting to your Majesty, the arrangements have been made."

"According to His Majesty's instructions, the Imperial Army has made arrangements."

Jin He bowed and said.

Hearing this, Zhou Chen nodded; "Well, except for those on guard at the palace gate, don't move yet. Those in the palace can take action."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Jin He accepted the order, he hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, the Cining Palace..."

Jin He didn't say any more, but everyone could see the meaning on his face.

After all, Cining Palace is not an ordinary place. Even though Jin He is the commander of the Imperial Army, he has to double check carefully.

"Everyone involved with that old eunuch will be taken down by me."

"Cining Palace is no exception."

"Do you still need me to teach you?"

Zhou Chen glanced at Jin He lightly and said.

"The general will obey the decree."

Hearing the indifference in Zhou Chen's tone, Jin He was shocked and quickly bowed to accept the order.

After Jin He left, Zhou Chen's eyes were a little deep.

The old eunuch Wu Jian thought that no one knew what he was doing.

Little did he know that Cao Zhengchun had already found out about him.

The only reason Zhou Chen didn't rush to touch him was because Zhou Zhi was involved.

Of course, she also has the dignity of the Queen Mother.

Originally Zhou Chen planned to give Zhou Zhi a chance, but unfortunately Zhou Zhi was stubborn and did not cherish it. Instead, he conspired with three aristocratic families to usurp the throne.

Zhou Chen was completely disappointed.

…

Not long after Jin He left.

Du Ruhui, Liu Ye and the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian also came to the Yangxin Hall together.

"I have met His Majesty."

After entering the Yangxin Hall, Du Ruhui, Liu Ye and the Eight Sages King Zhou Xian saluted Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen raised his head and looked at the three of them. Without any unnecessary nonsense, he said directly, "The Queen Mother left the palace and went to the Prince of Shu's Mansion. Just now news came from the East Factory that the Prince of Shu and others started to move."

"What do you think about this matter?"

The Queen Mother left the palace and went to the Shu Palace?

Upon hearing this, the three of them frowned and looked a little cautious.

After pondering for a moment.

The Eight Sages King Zhou Xian spoke up and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother may have noticed what happened to the King of Shu, so she left the palace and went to the Prince of Shu's Mansion."

Previously, the Queen Mother specially summoned him, the Eight Wise King, for the sake of Zhou Zhi, hoping that he, the Eight Wise King, would look after Zhou Zhi.

At that time, the Queen Mother probably noticed something was wrong with the King of Shu.

Now the Queen Mother left the palace directly and went to the Shu Palace.

In the opinion of the Eight Sages King Zhou Xian, the Queen Mother must have noticed what happened to Zhou Zhi, so she left the palace directly to the Prince of Shu's Mansion.

Liu Ye also nodded; "Your Majesty, the guess of the Eight Wise Kings must be correct. I also think that the Queen Mother may have noticed what happened to the King of Shu."

"However, now that the Prince of Shu's Mansion has moved, the Queen Mother has gone to the Prince of Shu's Mansion."

"This matter is a bit troublesome."

Liu Ye said with some solemnity.

"how?"

"Is it possible that the King of Shu still dares to take advantage of the Queen Mother?"

Zhou Chen looked at Liu Ye.

No matter what, Zhou Zhi came from the Queen Mother. Zhou Chen did not believe that his ninth brother would have the Queen Mother's idea.

Unless he is completely lost.

You know, the Queen Mother is the mother and queen of Zhou Zhi, the King of Shu, and she is also the biological queen.

If the King of Shu dares to take advantage of the Queen Mother, let alone the King of Shu who cannot usurp the throne, even if he succeeds, he will not be able to sit on the dragon chair.

Just a reputation of being unfilial was enough to make the world and the court of Zhou unable to tolerate him.

…

While Zhou Chen and Du Ruhui were discussing the Queen Mother's affairs, the imperial guards in the palace had already begun to take action.

Groups of forbidden troops rushed into each palace and began to arrest people.

Even some people within the Forbidden Army were all arrested under Jin He's direct order.

Anyone who dared to resist at all would be killed directly.

Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother's long-term residence is no exception.

If it were normal, no one would dare to boldly rush into Cining Palace and act recklessly.

But today is different.

Jin He, the commander of the imperial army, personally led the imperial army to Cining Palace.

"Commander Jin, what are you doing?"

"This is Cining Palace. What do you want to do when you bring the imperial army to Cining Palace?"

As soon as Jin He and the imperial troops arrived at the gate of Cining Palace, they were blocked by the people in Cining Palace.

"I know this is Cining Palace."

"Your Majesty has decreed that Wu Ji in Cining Palace is poisoning Your Majesty, and all those who have anything to do with Wu Ji will be arrested."

"Whoever dares to stop us will be treated as an accomplice of Wu Gu and we will take them down together."

Jin He said loudly.

What?

The tongueless father-in-law poisoned Your Majesty?

How can this be?

After hearing Jin He's words, everyone in Cining Palace was shocked, some of them couldn't believe it was true.

"Do it."

Jin He stopped talking nonsense and waved directly.

Groups of forbidden troops rushed into Cining Palace.

Although the Cining Palace is the residence of the Queen Mother, Jin He does not have to restrain himself when he acts according to his orders.
