Chapter 400: Imperial Mausoleum Sacrifice to Heaven
Zhang He received a lot of benefits, and the two generals had been planning to kill Fang Chen. The two of them wanted to be the marshals of the army. They wanted to seize the military power, return from victory and consolidate the real power. Even His Majesty could not do it.
The Tiger Talisman cannot be taken away.
After knowing everything, Fang Chen already had a plan and used it to his advantage!
He planted evil magic in Zhang He's body, intending to control Zhang He for a long time.
Later, Fang Chen found the servants of the Zhang Mansion and took Zhang He back.
Early the next morning, Zhang He woke up and found himself in his room, thinking that Fang Chen had asked him to drink with him last night, and he was drunk.
I don't remember what happened next.
According to the servant's description, Zhang He was drunk and two servants brought him back.
Zhang He didn't think much about it.
Three days later, Fang Chen took over the 50,000 soldiers and horses here and set off with the large army!
"Congratulations General Fang!"
"Congratulations to General Jinlong, and congratulations to General Tianying!"
…
In recent days, the entire imperial capital has been very peaceful.
All the properties of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce have been liquidated and merged with Dayan Bank.
The Bai family was accused of treason by Luo Ningxin!
Stinking for eternity.
The salt produced in Nanhai City was also shipped to other cities. The Imperial Capital also received tens of thousands of tons of salt. All the salt was sold at civilian prices, and all of it was refined salt and fine salt!
The common people thank Fang Chen and Luo Longyu.
This credit was given to Luo Longyu by Fang Chen.
At that time, Fang Chen also wanted to use Luo Longyu's power to deal with the people in Daqian, so he also followed His Majesty's order to contact Luo Longyu more and judge whether he had second thoughts.
Now Luo Longyu has taken a clear path and started planning a rebellion.
Today is the eighth day of the ninth lunar month.
Last night, Luo Longyu, Dongfang Yue, and Ye Ziyang gathered together to talk secretly.
"Tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival. Both the common people and the royal family must worship their ancestors. Our plan has been discussed long ago. I will reiterate it now."
"At midnight tomorrow, I will accompany Your Majesty, the Queen, and all the civil and military officials to the imperial mausoleum to pay homage."
"After the worship ceremony officially begins, His Majesty will read the memorial text, everyone will kneel down and salute, and there will be various procedures. It will be over in about an hour."
"Next, Your Majesty and I will pay homage to the late emperor, and no one else is allowed to come near."
"You two will hide in the late emperor's mausoleum tonight. When tomorrow's sacrifice is held, I will attack your majesty. Then you two will swarm up and kidnap your majesty!"
Ye Ziyang looked confident.
"Second Prince, don't worry. The two of us will be well hidden tonight. With the three of us joining forces, it will be easy to capture His Majesty!"
Luo Longyu warned again, "Don't make a mistake in your escape route. After you capture His Majesty, wait for me at the place I have arranged. This plan must be 100% successful. This
It’s our only chance!”
After the three people finished discussing.
Ye Ziyang and Dongfang Yue disguised themselves, left the Second Prince's Mansion, and then secretly headed to the Imperial Tomb in the eastern suburbs.
…
Kunning Palace.
Lu Caihuang had just finished her meal and was meditating.
Since being trapped in Kunning Palace, Lu Caihuang, apart from chatting with Zhao Qian, spends the rest of her time practicing and raising her fetus.
At this time, the eunuch's voice came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty is here!"
Lu Caihuang opened her eyes, immediately stood up and walked outside to greet him.
"Concubine, please see your Majesty."
Lu Caihuang did not expect that His Majesty would set foot in Kunning Palace.
After going down with the eunuch, Luo Ning thought to herself: "Tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival. You and I will go to the imperial mausoleum in the eastern suburbs to worship our ancestors together."
"I will send someone to pick you up before midnight tomorrow."
After Lu Caihuang accepted the order, he asked, "Does your Majesty have anything else to do?"
If it's just for this matter, His Majesty doesn't need to come in person, just find a eunuch and pass the message.
"Master Fang, you have told me everything."
Luo Ningxin suddenly stared at Lu Caihuang with cold eyes: "You actually tried to escape behind my back, and you even cooperated with my second brother to deal with me step by step!"
"Queen, do you know what crime you deserve?"
Luo Ningxin talked about these things.
She came here tonight to warn the queen that she should stay peacefully in the harem and not cause anything to happen.
Because the Queen will be alone with other people during the ancestor worship ceremony tomorrow, Luo Ningxin is also afraid that the Queen might cause trouble outside and contact Dakang's spies secretly.
If something is exposed, it will cause a lot of trouble.
Lu Caihuang saw His Majesty's condescending attitude, and the anger in her heart suddenly burst out.
"Your Majesty, you can sentence me to death. I have no complaints. I just have a question. Is your Majesty a man or a woman?"
Lu Caihuang went all out. Since you want to pick things out, then pick them all.
Luo Ningxin was shocked, but she still replied without changing her expression: "Wantless, who is deceiving the public with his lies?"
"If I were a woman, where did the child in your belly come from?"
"I'm telling you, if it weren't for the sake of the child and Mr. Fang interceding for you, I would have killed you long ago!"
"Remember, you'd better do your duty to worship your ancestors tomorrow and don't do anything that makes me unhappy!"
After Luo Ningxin warned Lu Caihuang, she left.
She didn't want to stay with this woman for one more second.
She was afraid that she couldn't help but kill this woman!
Lu Caihuang looked angry!
Zhao Qian walked in, and Lu Caihuang asked: "Can you detect anything unusual about His Majesty?"
Zhao Qian shook her head, "Your Majesty is still the same as before, there is no difference, and the whole body is full of man's breath, how can he be a woman?"
Lu Caihuang nodded: "If I had to choose between Fang Chen and Luo Longyu to trust someone, I would definitely choose Fang Chen."
Lu Caihuang struggled with this matter for a long time and discussed it with Zhao Qian many times.
She believed in Fang Chen, but she always felt that something was wrong!
Early the next morning, Lu Caihuang put on the priest's clothes and prepared everything.
After a while, His Majesty sent someone over to take Lu Caihuang away.
All civil and military officials have been waiting for a long time.
Luo Longyu also came over early.
He saw His Majesty and the Queen walking towards this side surrounded by a group of people. Luo Longyu's eyes stayed on His Majesty for a long time, and then fell on Lu Caihuang.
Luo Longyu became furious when he remembered Fang Chen's previous warning to him.
Originally, he and Lu Caihuang had cooperated, but Fang Chen detoxified the queen's body and ruined Luo Longyu's plan.
"I've met the Emperor's brother! I've met the Queen!"
"See you, Your Majesty! Meet the Queen!"
Everyone saluted Luo Ningxin and Lu Caihuang.
Luo Ningxin said: "You don't have to be polite, today is the annual Double Ninth Festival, and it is also the day when emperors and officials worship their ancestors. It's almost time now, let's set off."
The Minister of Rites has already arranged the items and procedures for worship.
Under the leadership of His Majesty, a team headed to the Imperial Tomb in the eastern suburbs.
