Gao Xian's eyes held a rare coldness, even cruelty, "The salary of the emperor is eaten by the emperor, and the sorrow of the loyal emperor is worried. Even if it is my biological daughter, she has to make this trip no matter how dangerous it is. However," he

The voice changed, with a strange reassurance that he didn't know why, "My cousin is blessed with profound blessings, and he will definitely turn bad luck into good luck."

When listening to these words, the queen suddenly remembered the scene when she chanted blessings and set fire, and her eyes were confused for a moment.

The chanting of blessings at that time was simply like divine help! But how on earth did she start such a fire?

※

What's more, it ticks slowly as time goes by. Such a leisurely and monotonous sound can drive people crazy!

The sky was getting brighter little by little, and the atmosphere in the palace was extremely solemn.

The fire in the emperor's palace had been put out long ago, but although there were several burnt corpses in the room, no one could guarantee that the emperor was there.

Moreover, the Queen and Princess Jiashan also mysteriously disappeared. Even the two girls that Princess Jiashan brought into the palace disappeared as if they had wings.

But no one cares about such a small person. What makes people even more anxious is where is the emperor? What should we do now?

King Jin walked around anxiously, his eyes were already red, and he became more and more anxious, like a lion about to go crazy at any time.

The bodies found in the dormitory and the number of missing people are barely consistent, but who can prove their identities?

There is also Chengping, this cunning old slave, who has also disappeared. Even his father's jade seal has disappeared with him. Even the King of Jin can't believe that his father died like this.

But if Gao Xian hadn't died, where would he have been hiding?

He has personally checked every brick of Gaoxian's palace, but he still can't find any tunnel entrance. Does he want to dig up the entire palace three feet into the ground?

This is obviously impossible.

And as time approaches, and the time for going to court is getting closer and closer, the truth that he forced the palace last night will become more and more difficult to conceal. So, what kind of reasonable explanation should he give to everyone, so that people can convincingly support him?

Is he the emperor?

The counselors under his command were also divided into two camps, and the quarrel turned upside down.

The more radical ones said directly, "Don't think about it anymore, just declare that the emperor has passed away and pass it on to you. Ascend the throne first, and then decide on the title."

But those who are more rational will say, "There is not even a jade seal imperial edict, so why stop Youyou's mouth? Even if you want to ascend the throne, you must at least make some preparations."

"But when you are ready, can you stop the mouths of everyone in the world? Everything has already been done. You have already suffered the infamy. Why not just stop doing it and wait until you ascend the throne?"

"The question is, now that you are on the throne, will the people in the world be convinced?"

…

King Jin was very upset after hearing this. He felt that all his men were just idiots, and no one could come up with a good idea at the critical moment!

Finally, his brother-in-law Min Ye came up with a fairly reliable idea, "The emperor has passed away. Isn't there still a queen mother in the palace? As long as the queen mother recognizes the orthodox status of the prince, what can the people of the world say?"

King Jin was refreshed after hearing this, and he went to find the Queen Mother in person to seek justice for him. However, a palace official came to report, "The Queen Mother is missing!"

King Jin suddenly became angry, "What do you mean the Queen Mother is missing? How could such a living person disappear?"

But it's true. Nothing was moved in the Queen Mother's Palace, but Queen Mother Mu just magically disappeared.

Also disappearing at the same time was a girl named Kang who came to the palace to celebrate the festival.

King Jin wiped the neck of a palace maid in Renshou Palace with a single stroke of his sword, "Tell me! Where did the Queen Mother go?"

But the maids and eunuchs cried together, but none of them could explain clearly.

King Jin gritted his teeth, knowing that he had no way out.

His father has run away, his stepmother has run away, and now even his grandmother has run away. If he doesn't take action, he will become more and more passive in the end. He has no way to turn back.

"Here comes someone! The whole city is under martial law and drums are beating to go to court!"

The purge begins in the palace.

The princes, princesses and concubines were all gathered together and locked in different halls. Then, groups of soldiers in armor went to the houses of the powerful ministers and used swords and guns to force out the sleeping ministers who looked shocked.

them.

At this time, as usual, one after another dung carts came out of the palace, carrying filth full of filth from thousands of households, and were sent to the suburbs of the city.

Pingyang is an ancient capital, and it has been hundreds of years since the capital was built. The territory is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people. Accordingly, more and more garbage and feces are produced every day.

In the past, Beijing did not pay much attention to the disposal of feces and garbage in the earliest days, which resulted in the environment getting worse and worse. It was really dusty on sunny days, mud on rainy days, and it was still smelly mud.

Later, not only ordinary people but also dignitaries also had many opinions on this, so rules gradually formed. No matter whether it was the palace or the common people, every household was not allowed to litter, especially feces and other filthy objects.

Every day before dawn, dung trucks would come to the city to collect the filth, and then take it to a designated place outside the city for dumping. This custom, even in war-torn times, except for a few days when it was too chaotic to go out,

They basically stuck to it. After all, no matter who becomes the emperor, they don’t want to live in a garbage dump, right?

This is true in all palaces, and Prince Ping's Mansion is certainly no exception.

A manure truck also came in through the back door, collected the filth in the toilet, and then went to clean out the public latrine in the mansion.

These people come here every day, with their faces covered and wearing gloves, aprons, sleeves and hats, with only their two eyes exposed. Even if they see each other every day, they don't know what they look like.

But no one saw it. Today, the manure collector took out a small note from a hidden gap in the latrine wall, stuffed it secretly into his sleeve, and then left.

At this time, on the outskirts of the city, a dung truck driving out of the palace came to a quiet place and stopped. The man driving the truck said, "Come out."

First, a young woman dressed as a palace maid jumped out of the car. Regardless of the stench all over her body, she helped another older woman get out, "Auntie, please slow down."

The old woman, who was also dressed as a palace maid, covered her mouth and nose with disgust on her face, "It's so sad..."

"Auntie." The girl quickly interrupted her, "Let's leave quickly."

As she spoke, she took out a large ingot of silver and handed it to the man, "Thank you, brother."

But the man took the money and stopped them again, "Wait, what else is there?"

The girl was stunned, "What else? Didn't I agree..."

The man sneered, "This ingot of silver is only for one person. Don't you two deserve a double share? I know you must have hidden a lot of good things when you came out of the palace, but don't force me to use force."

"

"You!" The old woman was furious and seemed to want to scold, but the girl stopped her and said nicely to the man, "We are all low-level slaves and have no money at all, otherwise we wouldn't

I'm thinking of running away. If the eldest brother is really dissatisfied, then this is the only option."

She took off one of her earrings and handed it over, "Why don't you leave one for me so I can hire a car?"

But the man said, "Stop pretending and give me both!"

The girl was helpless and gave him all the earrings, and then the man left with satisfaction.

Turning around, the old woman said angrily, "It's true that a tiger has been bullied by a dog! The queen mother of the Ai family has been reduced to such a state! It's better to stay in the palace and see what that little beast can do to me.

How about it?"

The girl, Kang Jierong, advised, "Queen Mother, the King of Jin dares to attack even the Emperor, who knows what else he will do? With a body like yours, you don't need to be the same as him. Let's find a place to settle down first.

Come down, it’s not too late to go back when the situation calms down.”

Queen Mother Mu only complained a few words and she ran out. What else could she do if she wasn't bullied?

Her grandson was unreliable, but fortunately her son was reliable. She arranged a few confidants around her. When Gao Xian had trouble and had to leave the palace, he sent someone to send a letter to her mother, asking her to find a way to avoid it.

What Min Ye thought of, Gao Xian had already thought of. Since he was not in the palace, the one with the most say was Queen Mother Mu, so she had to avoid it quickly.

Originally, Empress Dowager Mu wanted to wait until dawn and arrange for a team of people to escort her away properly, but Kang Jierong was so smart that she felt it was inappropriate.

Things have come to this point, and it must be extremely urgent. If bringing so many people will draw attention to themselves, it is better to just escape just the two of them. First, they can not attract attention, and second, they can establish a relationship with Queen Mother Mu in the midst of adversity.

emotion.

Finally, under the persuasion of the loyal Shanyin, Queen Mother Mu believed in Kang Jierong, endured the stench, hid in a dung cart with her, and sneaked out of the palace.

But where to go now, Kang Jierong was momentarily confused.

She originally thought about finding a carriage after leaving the city, or going home, or hiding in some countryside. But she forgot that it was still dark and there was no carriage outside the city. Even if there was, the two of them were wearing

A woman wearing palace clothes will definitely arouse suspicion when she goes out on the road.

what to do?

Fortunately, Queen Mother Mu had lived a long life, and although she had not suffered much hardship, she had learned a lot about life experiences.

"Let's find a farmer soon, tell them that we picked up these clothes, and ask someone to change them into coarse cloth clothes. Then we hire a car and go to my brother's place. He is also in the countryside now, not far from the capital, and he just wants to avoid it.

, you should call him."

This is a good idea, but if you want to find a farmer who can borrow clothes, you have to walk.

Looking at Kang Jierong's small body that she couldn't carry on her shoulders or lift with her hands, Empress Dowager Mu lost her temper and had no choice but to step forward in a condescending manner and let's go!

But when the man who collected dung at Prince Ping's Mansion emptied the dung truck and called it a day, he didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he ran to an old coffin shop in the capital with familiarity.

He reached under the window from the back door and knocked five times, three long and two short, and the door opened. A middle-aged man welcomed him in and frowned, "Why don't you even change your clothes? Look at the smell!"

But the man said in a hurry, "Uncle, I don't have time to nag you. Send the news out quickly, but don't act rashly. The water in the palace is still deep!" (To be continued. If you like this movie,
