Chapter One Thousand and Forty-Four At this time, no one could stop Empress Zhao, not even Xiao Yue.
Behind Empress Zhao, Gonggong Li held the heirloom jade seal in his hand, not wrapped in yellow cloth, the jade seal was directly laid out, and anyone could distinguish the authenticity of the heirloom jade seal.
Wasn't the jade seal of the country lost because Emperor Chu moved the capital south How did it finally fall into the hands of Empress Zhao Gu Mingnuan had heard of the whereabouts of the jade seal of the country, the person who said this was Xiao Yang, she was very happy, Xiao Yang revealed the whereabouts of the jade seal of the country to his mother, not because of her Empress Zhao's possession of the heirloom jade seal is equivalent to seizing the lead, as long as Xiao Yue did not pull the flag and rebel, he had to admit that Empress Zhao was the orthodox royal family.
The most important reason why Xiao Yue grasped Zhao Xiu'er's private affairs and denied that the prince was the son of Emperor Chu was that the people of the northern capital were unwilling to be devastated by the war anymore, and the people were at peace.
Once he rebelled and provoked a war, he was unpopular with the people, and most of Xiao Yue's soldiers were the children of the Northland, so let them slaughter their own people, they may not be willing to do their best, and they are likely to seize the opportunity of being the same children of the Northland to encourage them to mutiny.
Queen Zhao flicked her skirt lightly, sat on the dragon chair, and swept over everyone condescendingly, no one dared to meet her eyes, even if she refused to bow down, she lowered her head.
"King Ruijun."
Xiao Yue, who was standing upright, was particularly conspicuous among the people who bowed their heads.
Empress Zhao took the lead in calling Xiao Yue's name, "You stood up to ask the palace for guilt" The crown prince has not yet ascended the throne, and as the queen who holds the jade seal of the country, she is qualified to temporarily replace the young and ignorant prince to sit on the dragon chair and give orders.
The Empress Dowager's throne can only be canonized after the crown prince ascends the throne.
At this time, she called herself the main palace and not the mourning family.
Please Xiao Yue was almost angry, was Zhao Xiu'er too confident When he secretly sent the soldiers into the capital, they were all paper-paste Xiao Yue is reluctant to directly admonish the soldiers, taking into account the hearts of the people in the north, which does not mean that he will not order a strong attack when the fish is dead and the net is broken, and when he ascends the throne, he can gather the people's hearts again.
"You explain your origin clearly, and then give orders to this king."
Even if Xiao Yang just said something, there are more plots compared by hundreds of officials, and Xiao Yang originally intended to maintain Gu Mingnuan more.
"How did you and Gu Yan deceive the emperor and deceive the king?"
Xiao Yue's gaze swept over the silent Xiao Yang, and his mood relaxed a little, the uncle was afraid that he would not personally fight for the position, as long as Gu Mingnuan was not involved, Xiao Yang would at least not completely turn his face with Xiao Yue at this time.
Uncle is unlikely to help Zhao Xiu'er.
This may be a tacit understanding and secret battle between them.
Xiao Yue felt that the gentleman's style of the uncle was very stupid, and after he mastered the overall situation and the government, the balance of strength was completely tilted towards him, and when the time came, he could completely coerce the world to fight against the uncle who only had a fiefdom in Liaodong.
He was glad that Uncle and Zhao Xiu'er didn't join forces, and he only needed to deal with Zhao Xiu'er with all his strength.
Gu Cheng suddenly stood up and said: "King Ruijun is surprised by this, when did the queen mother deceive the emperor and when did he deceive the emperor Before the emperor's death, the queen mother has always accompanied His Majesty and sent His Majesty on his last journey, and the person entrusted by His Majesty is also the queen mother. ” "What Taifu said is very true."
The courtiers who supported the queen mother, as well as Gu Cheng's henchmen, nodded one after another.
"The emperor appointed me to be the crown prince's concubine, and he told me in every possible way to teach the prince and assist the queen mother as regent, if the mother deceived the emperor, the emperor would leave the prince to the mother" Gu Cheng downplayed the past of Niangniang and Yan's cousin, and said as if Emperor Chu had known that Zhao Xiuer and Gu Yan were originally husband and wife.
Xiao Yue sneered, and asked bitterly: "Who gave birth to Gu Yan's son, it is said that Gu Yan's son also has a red cloud birthmark on his body, which is a proof of blood." ” The government and the opposition are silent, even if Gu Cheng is fickle, he can't speak.
"My father can't remarry, who stipulates that my father can only wait for my mother" Gu Mingnuan didn't know that Empress Zhao specially instructed Liangzhou to revise the death record, and in Gu Mingnuan's memory, his mother was closed in the yamen.
So she said it very justifiably, although it was a bit embarrassing for her brother to say this, but the current situation was the best.
If the mother loses in the affair with the father, the father will feel guilty for the rest of his life Xiao Yue was stunned for a while, when the Jiang family was full of capital Zhang Luo to remarry Gu Yan, everyone knew that Gu Yan was the mule driver of the dead lady, and there was also a death certificate of Gu Yan's wife in the yamen.
It is also possible for Gu Yan to marry in private and not let others know.
After all, the woman who gave Gu a child was said to be just a broken female slave.
Xiao Yue snorted coldly, "Who knows if Gu Yan had an affair with Empress Zhao under the guise of a slave girl, and the emperor was deceived by them." ” As soon as he insisted on this, Xiao Yue would not let go easily.
Gu Mingnuan sneered, and looked past Xiao Yang, who was glaring at her, thinking that she was so bad that she forgot Xiao Yang's entrustment for a while, but she just couldn't help it, and couldn't help but watch her parents being criticized.
Her laughter was full of mockery, "King Ruijun, Xiao Yue" "Now you are in the court, fighting for national affairs, you take my father's private affairs to talk, and use the news I heard from nowhere to accuse the queen mother, what is the benefit of the court and politics in major affairs, your dignified prince is like the three aunts and six women in the streets and alleys, and generally treats trivial matters as national affairs."
"You keep saying that Your Majesty is wrong about the queen's mother, I think your Majesty is really wrong about you, Your Majesty regards you as a heavy minister, but your nature is small-bellied and chicken intestines, no different from a mother-in-law with a broken mouth."
"Your Majesty was wise and did not entrust you with the affairs of the state and the crown prince in the end, otherwise in less than ten years, the temple would be destroyed by you."
The words were loud, and Xiao Yue's short-sightedness was fiercely mocked, and he only cared about some peachy rumors, not thinking about the overall situation at all.
Gu Mingnuan continued to ask Xiao Yue, "You are unhappy with the first emperor everywhere, have you ever worried about the funeral of the first emperor, can you burn paper in front of the first emperor's spirit, have you discussed the name of the first emperor with hundreds of officials, have you ever appeased the people who lost their father, have you ever thought about whether the northern barbarians will take advantage of the death of the first emperor to raise troops and detain the border?"
Xiao Yue's face was swollen and red, he was first accused of being more broken than a woman, and then he was caught by Gu Mingnuan for his inaction, and he was not worthy of being the king of Ruijun.
Her mouth is sharper than a knife, and it is better than that of her uncle.
"The first emperor never cared about Niangniang's past, never cared about me, why do you say that the third or fourth emperor regarded Niangniang as the queen of the main palace and the best candidate to assist the prince, you only need to obey the last wish of the first emperor, if you are dissatisfied, it can only mean that you are disloyal to the first emperor."
Gu Ming's warm eyes were sharp, and she approached Xiao Yue again, with Xiao Yang and her mother behind her, even if she said that she could do it out of the cabinet, there would always be someone to finish it for her.
At this time, she really had no scruples, "If you disobey the order, just say it, don't be like the mother-in-law and mother of the three aunts and six women, which makes the world and the courtiers despised." ”:
