Looking at the scene in the court, Queen He, no, she should be called Queen Mother He now!
Seeing that all the courtiers agreed with Liu Bian's succession, Queen Mother He immediately said with great joy: "Okay! In this case, the new king should be appointed as soon as possible, and the prince will be the one to argue..."
"Yes, the new king must be appointed as soon as possible, but the successor is not Liu Bian."
Before Empress Dowager He finished speaking, Empress Dowager Dong walked into the palace hall, looked at Empress Dowager He above coldly, and said in a deep voice: "It's the Prince Association."
"My lords, what your Majesty really established in his final edict was the Prince's Association, so the new emperor should be succeeded by the Prince's Association..." Empress Dowager Dong added in a cold voice.
After hearing this, except for a few civil and military officials, no one reacted. For them, there is no need to intervene in these disputes at this time, and they only need to follow the footsteps of the winner.
.
Otherwise, once they get involved, if unfortunately they lose, not only will they not get any benefits, but they will become embarrassed.
"Mother, I know that you have never been fond of distinguishing children, but have become closer to Xie'er. However, you cannot pretend to pass on the late emperor's last edict just because you love Xie'er. What's more, the empress mother keeps saying that the late emperor's edict is based on Xie'er.
Son, I just don’t know if my mother dares to take out the late emperor’s edict and show it to everyone!” Looking at Empress Dowager Dong who came to disrupt the situation at this critical moment, Empress Dowager He said calmly even though she was angry.
"Haha!" After hearing what Empress Dowager He said, Empress Dowager Dong immediately sneered, "Bitch, I'm afraid you didn't expect that although His Majesty did not send out any edict before his death, when he issued the oral edict, several of the regular attendants were
Everyone is here! There are witnesses, let me see how you, a bitch, rebel!"
"Mother, what you mean by this is that several ministers can testify which prince your Majesty chose to succeed you before he died?" After hearing what Empress Dowager Dong said, Empress Dowager He was secretly happy and immediately felt very happy.
He spoke with interest.
"That's true!" At this time, Empress Dowager Dong still didn't find anything wrong, so she replied without thinking too much.
Empress Dowager Dong always thought that since Shi Changshi was willing to tell her that the edict issued by Liu Hong before his death was to ask the prince to succeed to the throne, then Shi Changshi must be of the same mind as her!
But how could Empress Dowager Dong have imagined that the Shi Changshi at this time had rebelled against their camp in order to survive. The current Shi Changshi was already on the Queen Mother He's side.
"So, Zhang Rang, I wonder which prince your majesty issued the edict to succeed to the throne?" After hearing that Empress Dowager Dong fell into the trap, Empress Dowager He immediately pretended to ask Zhang Rang, who was standing aside.
At this time, Zhang Rang was already entangled in his heart after seeing Empress Dowager Dong appear. Should he continue to follow Empress Dowager He, or should he support Empress Dowager Dong? This is a question.
However, immediately after, Queen Mother He's questioning voice had awakened Zhang Rang. Looking at He Jin's murderous eyes below, Zhang Rang immediately did not dare to think any more and hurriedly replied, "This... Your Majesty
Before his death, he passed down an oral decree that the prince would inherit the throne, and there should be no mistakes."
Upon hearing this, all the ministers fell down and kowtowed, and shouted to Liu Bian in unison: "Greetings to my emperor..."
When Empress Dowager Dong saw this scene, she was immediately stunned and her mind went blank. Then she was so angry that she couldn't even stand still. She pointed at Empress Dowager He, Zhang Rang and others tremblingly, and gritted her teeth and said: "You, Zhang Rang, how dare you
Falsifying the oral instructions of the late emperor!"
"The rebellious ministers and traitors are all a group of rebellious ministers and traitors!" Empress Dowager Dong was so angry that she immediately shouted angrily.
Seeing Empress Dowager Dong's gaffe, Empress Dowager He immediately took advantage of the victory and said, "In the past, Empress Lu's monopoly of power led to the death of thousands of members of the clan. Today, we women should stay above the ninth level for a long time. Important matters of the imperial court should be left to us."
These senior ministers can just discuss it themselves. Mother, why should I fight for power without permission?"
The words of Queen Mother He made all the court ministers think in their hearts, "What the Queen Mother said is true."
Empress Dowager Dong said in a deep voice, "Bitch, you are jealous by nature, but you ask me the truth. Huh, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kill you and your brother He Jin."
When Queen He heard this, she also blushed and sneered: "Mother, aren't you also a vassal concubine? Why do you have to stay in the palace all the time, and how do you interfere in the affairs of the royal family?"
"You bitch, you..." Empress Dowager Dong was not in a very beautiful mood at first, but now she was ridiculed by Empress Dowager He again, and she was so angry that she couldn't even speak out.
"If you come, you won't help the Empress Dowager to return to the palace." Empress Dowager He said in a sharp voice.
Empress Dowager He's intention was very clear, which was to put Empress Dowager Dong under house arrest first to prevent Empress Dowager Dong from making any more troubles that would have any impact on Liu Zhen's succession.
The Shichang attendants had no choice but to take advantage of the power of Empress Dowager He and He Jin, so they led several guards to take Empress Dowager Dong away first.
However, even so, they did not dare to do anything rough to Empress Dowager Dong. This was the case with the Shichangshi. Born as eunuchs, they were born with a sense of awe for people in the royal family. Even if Empress Dowager Dong might lose her glory in the future, they would not do anything about it.
I dare not do anything to Empress Dowager Dong.
The same is true for He Jin and Empress Dowager He. After all, Empress Dowager Dong is the biological mother of the late emperor. With this status, at least they dare not do anything to Empress Dowager Dong openly. If they really dare to do anything excessive, once it is reported
Once the news is gone, not everyone in the world can bear the verbal and written criticism.
Without the interference of Empress Dowager Dong, the last obstacle to Liu Bian's succession has disappeared. Naturally, there will be no more disturbances during Liu Bian's succession ceremony.
…
"Sister, now that Bian'er has ascended the throne, when will we clear out those ten permanent servants?" He Jin said with a proud face in the Empress Dowager He's bedroom.
Hearing this, Queen Mother He frowned: "Brother, don't push Shi Chang Shi too much. Why do you need to make the relationship so tense?"
They also played a role in welcoming Bian'er as the emperor. Please spare their lives. Don't forget that when I entered the harem, it was also thanks to the support of you and the others. Otherwise, I might have died.
He died in the palace, this kindness must be repaid!
And I need someone to serve me in the palace now! Instead of killing them and using new people, it is better to let them help manage the palace! In addition, the former emperor has passed away and Bian'er has just ascended the throne.
It’s not suitable for a mass killing!”
He Jin was originally a little afraid of this sister, and because of her personality, she was not a tough person, so after the Empress Dowager He spoke, he did not dare to say anything more, so he had no choice but to come down first!
