Chapter 1141 Shock in the Palace

At the third watch, outside the queen's palace, thousands of guards surrounded the palace. These were guards controlled by Li Fuguo. They sealed the palace tightly and did not allow anyone to leave.

Several eunuchs were discussing urgently in the room. Seizing this opportunity, Queen Zhang quickly walked to another empty room, took out the Shenlong Token from her dress, struck a small bell, and made a slight abnormal sound of 'Dang!'.

After a moment, a dark shadow fell from the roof. It was Pei Min. Queen Zhang took out a hairpin from her head and handed it to him. "Immediately give the hairpin to my father and ask him to keep it for me temporarily. Tell him that the emperor has arrived." collapse!"

"Queen, take care!"

Pei Min took the hairpin, jumped up to the roof, and disappeared.

Empress Zhang returned to the side hall and sat down. At this time, several eunuchs came out of the room. Li Fuguo waved his hand, and several guards came from outside and arrested the two imperial doctors.

Several other guards came to arrest the two young palace ladies, but Queen Zhang protected them. Queen Zhang said coldly to Li Fuguo: "I know what you want to do, but they are my confidants, don't touch them."

The two little maids were so frightened that they hid behind Queen Zhang. Li Fuguo said in a negative tone: "My Lady, now is not the time to be merciful. The news must not be leaked."

"I guarantee you that they will not leave me for a step. If they leave me, you can do anything."

Li Fuguo nodded, Empress Zhang still had to give her this face.

"Don't worry, Madam, I promise that the civil service group will not be touched. I mainly want to hold the military power of Luoyang in my hands."

Li Fuguo was overjoyed and said quickly: "We must wait two days before announcing the death of the emperor. We need to eradicate some traitors to prevent them from hindering King Ding's ascension to the throne."

Article 2 The emperor also serves as the general marshal of the world's military forces. Yu Chaoen is the eldest official. The emperor is only five years old. In fact, it is Yu Chaoen who holds the military power.

He took out a piece of paper and handed it to Queen Zhang, "These are some of our small requests. Your Majesty agreed. We support King Ding to ascend the throne."

Zhang Li sat dumbly in his chair, unable to say a word.

There are more than a dozen items that follow, which basically means that eunuchs controlled the military and political power.

Pei Min took out another golden hairpin and handed it to Zhang Li, "This is the golden hairpin that the Queen gave to the Prime Minister!"

"The emperor has passed away!"

Although they were all mentally prepared that the emperor would not survive these days, Zhang Li was still shocked when he heard the news of his death.

The first article is to make Li Fuguo the right prime minister, the governor of the state, and respect him as Shangfu, Zhang Li as the left prime minister, change the five prime ministers to two prime ministers, and abolish the political affairs hall.

Queen Zhang was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I agree!"

Queen Zhang glanced at the paper and said coldly: "Is this a small request?"

Queen Zhang nodded, "Put Your Majesty into the ice coffin first!"

There was murderous intent in Li Fuguo's eyes under the mask. If Queen Zhang didn't agree, Queen Zhang would never live.

Pei Min's identity is the Dragon Order, and he is only loyal to the owner of the Dragon Order. His former emperor was Li Heng. Li Heng gave the Dragon Order to Queen Zhang, and Pei Min turned his allegiance to Queen Zhang.

At the fourth watch, Sun Qin, the deputy commander of the bodyguard, was killed and Zhang Mao, the general of the bodyguard, took over. In this way, the three commanders of the palace were Li Fuguo's confidants.

The three thousand guards in the inner palace were completely controlled by the eunuchs.

Empress Zhang said calmly: "If you want to kill the royal family, I don't care, but let me remind you first, Li Dai cannot move. If anything happens to Li Dai, you and I will be killed by the nine tribes!"

Article 3 Cheng Yuanzhen is the general manager of the palace and is also responsible for commanding the palace guards.

At this time, Zhang Li was awakened by his maid, and he met Pei Min who had escaped from the palace in the study.

Zhang Li took the gold hairpin from Pei Min. He studied for a moment and found the mechanism. He twisted it slightly and unscrewed the hairpin head. The surface was actually empty. He poured out a roll of paper from the surface. Zhang Li slowly When I opened it, I was immediately shocked to find that it was the emperor's last edict.

"What does the Queen mean by giving it to me?"

"The Queen just asked Zhang Xiangguo to keep it for her temporarily."

Zhang Li nodded, "I understand, what else is there?"

"There's nothing else."

"Then please ask General Pei to go back quickly to protect the Queen."

Pei Min nodded, turned and left.

Zhang Li carefully put the emperor's edict back into the golden hairpin, restored it to its original state, hid it, and then ordered: "Prepare a car for me!"

Zhang Li wrote a note at the same time and asked his subordinates to rush to the Qianniuwei camp and hand the note to his son Zhang Qingming.

Zhang Qingming is the general of Qianniu Guard. The situation during this period was strange, and he did not come back from the army.

The carriage was ready, Zhang Li got on the carriage and rushed towards Li Dai's house.

This is Zhang Li's shrewdness. He doesn't have to tell others, but Li Dai needs to be the first to inform.

Li Dai was woken up by his concubine. Hearing that Prime Minister Zhang Li was urgently seeking an audience, he asked, "When will it be?"

"Reporting to the master, the fourth watch has just arrived!"

It was only the fourth watch, what did Zhang Li want to do with him?

Li Dai suddenly became excited, "Oh no, something must have happened in the palace."

He quickly put on his clothes and rushed to the outer hall. Zhang Li came to greet him and burst into tears, "Prime Minister, Your Majesty has died!"

Li Dai was stunned and stunned. After a while, he suppressed his grief and asked, "Did the news come from the palace?"

"No, the news has been blocked. Pei Min came to see me on the Queen's secret order. Only you and I know about it now!"

Li Dai was also a little panicked. He quickly said: "Now is not the time to cry. We have to inform Xiangguo Pei quickly and discuss countermeasures together!"

At this moment, Liu Wutong came to report: "Xiangguo, it's not good. Hundreds of plum blossom guards came outside and blocked our front and back doors."

Zhang Li was startled, "When I came here, I didn't see the Plum Blossom Guard yet!"

"Yes! Just at the beginning, it seems that the entire Luoyang City has Plum Blossom Guards and Qianniu Guards dispatched, and no one is allowed to move."

Li Dai snorted, "Does the eunuch want to kill me?"

Zhang Li sneered: "Give them ten courages, and they won't dare to touch a hair of Li Xiangguo, unless they are tired of living and want to be killed by the King of Qi."

Liu Wutong also said: "It seems that they just don't allow the Prime Minister to go abroad."

Li Dai sighed, "They are afraid that the civil servants will join forces and control us first. Zhang Xiangguo should rest in my house first!"

Zhang Li had no choice. He was trapped in Li Dai's house, and he asked Li Dai to temporarily place his coachman and bodyguards outside his house.

Fortunately, he sent someone to inform his son, who was well prepared and would not be seized by the eunuchs.

Li Dai and Zhang Li sat down in the outer hall again, and a maid came in to serve them hot tea.

Li Dai asked: "When did the emperor die?"

"It should be the third watch. It is estimated that the entire palace is now controlled by the eunuchs."

Li Dai nodded, "That's for sure. The first step for the eunuchs is to control the guards, and then they have to deal with the Shence Army and the Qianniu Guards. But you don't have to worry. With Queen Zhang here, the eunuchs don't dare to attack the son. The key is It's Peng Wang Li Ji, and that's the first person the eunuchs want to deal with."

Neither of them spoke. They both knew that it would be difficult to reverse the situation with King Peng and Li alone.
