In the city of Chang'an, the palaces were brightly lit. Yin Jiaojiao stood in front of the window, with her belly bulging, looking at the east. She was the only one who was pregnant in the Sui Palace last year, and she was very pampered and enjoyed herself in the palace.
The treatment is very good.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good." A palace maid rushed in in a panic.
"Xiao He, what happened?" A soft look appeared on Yin Jiaojiao's face. This was the maid she was marrying. Yin Jiaojiao trusted her very much.
"My Majesty, there is news from outside that Your Majesty has been harmed by a big demon." Xiao He looked flustered and whispered: "My Majesty, I heard that the ministers in front of me are preparing to nominate a new crown prince. What should I do?
ah?"
"How is it possible? How is it possible? Your Majesty is so wise and powerful, how could something happen? It must be fake, it must be fake." Yin Jiaojiao's face was pale and her delicate body was shaking. If she had grabbed the window next to her, she would have fallen down.
On the ground.
"Mother, it has been spread throughout the world that something happened to His Majesty the Emperor." Xiao He cried.
"Don't talk nonsense before you get the news." Yin Jiaojiao scolded: "We believe that His Majesty the Emperor will definitely come back. Has he not seen the little prince's parentage yet?"
"My Majesty, if something really goes wrong with Your Majesty, your Majesty, you have to be careful about your body! And the child in your belly, you have to be careful too!" Xiao He cried, "This palace is not a good place.
Nothing can happen to your Majesty!"
"Could it be that someone in this palace could harm me?" Yin Jiaojiao sneered.
"My Majesty, don't you know? You were favored in the palace last year. Your Majesty rarely even went to the newly promoted imperial concubines and often came to you. That's why you became pregnant with the dragon seed. My Majesty,
A prince is better than a grandson! What you are carrying in your belly is the prince of the Sui Dynasty." Xiao He said with wide eyes.
"Prince?" Yin Jiaojiao's eyes were blank after hearing this. This was the first time she heard such a title, but it was so attractive. Today's prince, tomorrow's emperor, she can also be the queen mother in the future.
"It's a pity that something happened to His Majesty. If he really dies and the prince has just been born, the new emperor will definitely not let him go." Xiao He cried and cried: "Which emperor can allow someone to threaten his throne?
Where does man exist?”
Yin Jiaojiao's face turned pale after hearing this, and there was a little panic in her eyes. Xiao He was right. If she was born a daughter, it would be natural. But if she was born a son, the emperor now only has grandsons and no sons.
They are all dead, so logically, it is his son who will take the throne.
However, the son is young and has just been born, while the other emperors and grandsons have grown up and are more suitable to be emperor than his own son. After these emperors and grandsons ascend the throne, will they still allow their sons to exist?
Her father had lost his official position and had no way to help him. The new emperor would not let him go. His son's fate seemed to be destined. Yin Jiaojiao felt sad when she thought of this.
"Empress, what should I do now?" Xiao He cried.
"What else can we do? Just take it one step at a time. I believe His Majesty the Emperor will be fine." Yin Jiaojiao touched her belly. Several months had passed and she knew that the only way to survive was with the Emperor.
"Please ask people to pay attention to the situation outside. His Majesty is missing. There will definitely be a reaction from the Zhengdong Army. If the Zhengdong Army wins, it will naturally be a good thing. If it fails, there is nothing I can do about it."
Her delicate eyes caressed her lower abdomen, with a trace of sadness on her face.
In the Wude Hall of the Outer Dynasty, Lu Miaozi looked at the military report in his hand, with a hint of gloom on his face. The news of the emperor's disappearance was not concealed. After all, there were people from the Changbai Sword Sect on the scene at that time. To be honest, no matter whether it was against
It was a huge blow to both the army marching east and the imperial court.
It had been less than a year since the Central Plains had just recovered. At this time, the emperor suddenly disappeared. The aristocratic families that had been suppressed might have taken action again. If it weren't for the fact that the royal family still had three masters in charge, the arsenal in the palace would have been long gone by this time.
Someone is visiting.
But despite this, Lu Miaozi also knew that the palace arsenal was only secondary. The most important thing was the replacement of imperial power. The aristocratic family was dissatisfied with some of Yang Guang's measures, such as martial arts secrets and practice methods that were spread all over the world.
Interests are not aligned.
Yang Guang is here, so of course there is nothing to do with it, but if Yang Guang is gone, everything will start over again. It seems to be a foregone conclusion that the aristocratic family will control the power in the DPRK. People like myself actually have no foundation in the DPRK.
Once a new emperor really takes the throne, it seems to be foreseeable what will happen to people like him.
"Master Lu." There was a sound of footsteps outside, and Wei Yuancheng walked in.
"Master Wei is not in the Criminal Department, why are you here?" Lu Miaozi stroked his beard, looked at him calmly, and looked at him calmly.
Wei Yuancheng had a sudden thought, and finally gathered his energy and said with a smile: "Master Lu, you are a smart man and you should know the current situation. The Eastern Expedition is a game, a game against Your Majesty, so His Majesty has no choice but to
Jump in, something has happened now, the first thing to do is how to solve the problem. You are a veteran of the court, at this time, you have to make an idea!"
"Has something happened to your Majesty? Has your Majesty passed away? What are your ideas?" Lu Miaozi's expression changed and he couldn't help but snorted: "Master Wei is also a smart man. It is better to say less if he knows there is no evidence, and even if
Something has happened to Your Majesty, Empress Yin is pregnant, and the country will also have a master in the future. Lord Wei, just rest assured, the five of us will conscientiously assist the young master."
"Mr. Lu is joking. Although Empress Yin is pregnant, let alone whether she is a prince or not, even if she is a prince, other considerations should be made for the throne. After all, the country of the Sui Dynasty is so important. How can it be placed on the young master? The King of Yue,
The acting king is already old and should be the best candidate for the throne." Wei Yuancheng said without hesitation.
"Master Wei should be thinking about acting as the king!" Lu Miaozi glanced at the other party with disdain and said lightly: "As I said before, your Majesty has no news yet. Everything you and I say now is nothing. Master Wei
, please go back! There is a war on the front line now, and it is better for you and me to be loyal to the king."
Lu Miaozi soon understood Wei Yuancheng's thoughts, and a trace of anger suddenly arose in her heart.
"Humph, Mr. Lu, running away won't solve the problem. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty will not recognize the young prince." Wei Yuancheng's face became gloomy after hearing this, and even the tone of his words was much different.
