Exile opening: I won with the Universal Maker

When Xiao Beiheng saw Empress Wen visiting late at night, it was obviously something urgent.

At this hour, the entire city of Anzhou has fallen into a deep sleep.He didn't make much fanfare, but just stood at the gate of the palace with Su Mo, and when Queen Wen's motorcade arrived, the two accompanied Queen Wen into the palace, one on the left and the other on the right.

Everyone came to a quiet room, Empress Wen stood still in the middle, turned her back to everyone and said, "You all step back for now, only King Ping is left."

Su Mo was a little strange.It is normal for the queen to ask the maids and guards to step down. She is the daughter-in-law after all, and the queen can't say anything in front of her.But hearing Empress Wen's unquestionable tone, she didn't dare to disobey, so she could only bow down and say, "Follow the Queen's order."

After finishing speaking, she stood up and exchanged glances with Xiao Beiheng.

Although Xiao Beiheng was also a little baffled, he was much smarter than Su Mo, and immediately thought that what the queen was going to say might have something to do with Shen Yuexi.After all, Su Mo and Shen Yuexi had a good relationship, and it was reasonable for the Queen to let her retreat temporarily, so she nodded slightly to Su Mo.

After Su Mo and the others left, Xiao Beiheng said, "Mother, it's so late, why are you here..."

Empress Wen turned around, took off the veil covering her face, and said, "It's so late, you and your husband are not tired, you are neatly dressed, and you are preparing carriages and horses. What are you going to do?"

Xiao Beiheng said: "The mother's eyes are as bright as a torch, the child really wants to go out, and wants to go to Zhongzhou to meet the emperor."

"What are you doing to see your father?" Empress Wen sat down and put her hands on the armrests of the chair.

Xiao Beiheng forced a smile and said: "Mother, you must already know about the murder of my sister-in-law... I plan to go and explain clearly to my father, and at the same time track down the murderer, and give my elder brother an explanation."

"I knew the news on the way," said Queen Wen, "so I came here to look for you."

Xiao Beiheng's heart tightened suddenly, could it be that Empress Wen suspected that he had poisoned him?

Just like Su Mo, it feels like everyone doubts him.Although he is in the Anzhou Palace, his confidant Lin Kui is in the imperial city, and he is a medical practitioner.There was another precedent of poisoning and murdering Xiao Zhuo...

Thinking of this, he said with some difficulty: "Mother, the child is innocent."

Empress Wen smiled slightly, and said: "Heng'er, you don't need to be nervous. You are my son, and I know you better than your mother. Of course I know you are innocent."

Xiao Beiheng asked in surprise: "Could it be that the mother has found clues to the poisoner?"

What he was happy about was that if Empress Wen had discovered the clues of the poisoner, he would be able to explain to Emperor Qi Ming and Xiao Zhuo.Surprisingly, Empress Wen has always lived in seclusion and kept her secrets.How did you find the clue so quickly.

"Of course," Queen Wen said lightly, "I am the one who poisoned you."

There were only a few numbers, but it sounded like a thunderbolt in Xiao Beiheng's ears.

He couldn't help but took two steps back, and said, "Mother... Queen Mother, you are not joking, are you?"

"Of course not," Empress Wen looked up at him, "Do you think I'm joking?"

Xiao Beiheng's mind was in chaos, and he said, "Why...why?"

He couldn't think of a reason why Queen Wen wanted to poison Shen Yuexi, and the two had no connection at all.During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Empress Wen and Emperor Qi Ming invited Xiao Zhuo and Shen Yuexi to the capital for a banquet.

"Why?" Empress Wen shook her head, stood up and walked in front of Xiao Beiheng, "First of all, it was for you, Heng'er, and for you to successfully obtain the crown prince..."

"But... but Momo just said it," Xiao Beiheng argued, "Brother and sister-in-law will give me the crown prince, they won't compete with me."

Empress Wen gave a contemptuous smile, and said: "Heng'er, you have always been smart. How come you are as stupid as a child when it comes to this matter. When I went to see Shen Yuexi, she said the same to me. Momo is naive and naive It’s okay if you can’t see through it, even you can’t see through it? You still call them big brother and sister-in-law, do you really regard them as your relatives?”

Xiao Beiheng still wanted to defend himself: "Sister-in-law... sister-in-law is always reliable..."

"That's enough." Empress Wen flicked her sleeves, "It really disappoints me. Since ancient times, people's hearts have been separated from their stomachs, and you don't even understand such a simple truth? That Xiao Xiao valued the crown prince's title very much when he was young. How could you Do you believe he will not fight?"

Xiao Beiheng hurriedly knelt down on the ground, touching his forehead to the ground: "Mother, calm down, the child is confused for a moment."

After thinking about it carefully, he also felt that what Queen Wen said was reasonable, maybe Shen Yuexi was just deceiving Su Mo.With Xiao Zhuo's consistent personality, how could he give up the position of prince.Lin Kui once said that he is "a fan of the authorities", and it seems to be true. He is indeed a bit naive in the matter of establishing a reserve.From this point of view, he really should be decisive and strike first.

Empress Wen paused for a moment, then continued: "Originally, I was going to do this on the Mid-Autumn Festival, and when they came to the capital, I would catch them all in one go. But by accident, neither the person surnamed Xiao nor Shen Yuexi came. If they didn't come, Ben The palace will go there in person."

Xiao Beiheng was terrified when he heard it.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival for family reunion. Empress Wen actually wanted to poison Xiao Zhuo and Shen Yuexi to death on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.Although he had done similar things, the hairs on his back stood on end knowing what Queen Wen was thinking.

Empress Wen, who is the mother of a country, actually poisoned Shen Yuexi herself.He didn't understand why he felt that Empress Wen's hatred for Xiao Zhuo was stronger than him. He hadn't done anything here yet, and Empress Wen had already made the first move.In the past so many years, Empress Wen had never shown this kind of hatred, and it was not until today.

He couldn't help it, straightened his waist and asked, "Queen, why did you do this?"

"Because I know you can't do it," Empress Wen raised her finger and pointed to his forehead, "I've trained you for so many years, but you still can't change your character. Leading thousands of troops, piercing Yang with bows and arrows, holding peerless magic weapons, But you are still as cowardly as a mouse."

Xiao Beiheng's complexion changed, and he argued: "My boy has pacified the two states in the west, and even defeated Xiao Zhuo..."

"Then did you kill him?" Empress Wen said coldly, "At the end of his life, it's such a great opportunity, why didn't you dare to kill him yourself, why did you send Ji Zhong and Song Zhen there?"

Xiao Beiheng opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Empress Wen's words hit the nail on the head.Thinking of that time, he was really timid.At that time, Xiao Zhuo only had Shen Yuexi by his side, and his fighting spirit was as weak as a bereaved dog.And he didn't know what was wrong with him, so he just didn't dare to go.Even if he had just beheaded Xiao Kai, he had the Yan Que Sword in his hand.

"Because you haven't changed at all," Queen Wen withdrew her hand, "Do you still remember when you were five years old, you didn't even dare to meet strangers, and you knew how to play with puppies all day long..."

Xiao Beiheng suddenly raised his head: "Mother, don't mention what happened back then."

That was the past he was least willing to recall, and it was at that time that the habit of having nightmares was formed.

Empress Wen ignored him at all, and continued: "I asked you to strangle that dog with your own hands. You cried until your eyes were full of tears, but you still strangled until the animal died... Later, as long as a servant makes a mistake, I will Just let you cut off their hands and feet yourself... I thought that when you grow up, you will be better than that bitch's son. The result still disappoints me. Not only did you not kill that surnamed Xiao, you actually went to fight with him shamelessly. They celebrated Qiqiao Festival!"

Xiao Beiheng said: "Mother...why do you hate Xiao Zhuo so much? Is it because father can't forget the old relationship?"

Empress Wen shook her body and said angrily, "This is not what you should ask!"

Under the illumination of the candlelight, Empress Wen's face full of white hair and anger was clearly displayed in front of his eyes.Although due to the bad relationship between his father Xiao Ming and Emperor Yongde, King Qi's family has almost never been to the capital.But he also knew that his mother's face was said to be extremely similar to Empress Pei Jingyun, and it was believed that they were twins.

Before his father, Xiao Ming, went south to rescue the disaster, he had a one-night stand with Pei Jingyun, the eldest daughter of Duke Pei.Xiao Ming walked forward, but Emperor Yongde accepted Pei Jingyun as his queen.Xiao Ming dared not speak out, but later he happened to meet Wen Yi, who looked similar to Pei Jingyun, and married him as his wife, loving her very much. In the past 20 years, Xiao Ming has never taken a concubine, and he concentrates on being nice to Wen Yi, and his son sees it.

However, what surprised him a little was that the better his father was to his mother, the faster his mother's hair would turn gray.Logically speaking, no woman should be very happy to meet such a good husband.

Now seeing that Empress Wen hated Xiao Zhuo so much that she didn't even mention her name, but only called "the one surnamed Xiao", he probably guessed the reason.

The reason why his father Xiao Ming married his mother was to treat her well. In fact, he just regarded her as that Pei Jingyun, his old lover.

No woman can tolerate her husband pampering her, but what she actually thinks about is his former sweetheart, let alone for 20 years.Hate the house and the crow, the mother naturally transferred this hatred to Pei Jingyun's son Xiao Zhuo, wanting to kill him quickly.

Thinking of this, he whispered: "Mother, Pei Jingyun has been gifted to death by Emperor Yongde."

"The one surnamed Xiao is not dead yet," Queen Wen said after a pause, "As long as it is related to that bitch, I will make them disappear, whether it is the one surnamed Xiao or Shen Yuexi... I I'm just a woman, I can't do this. I have raised you for 19 years, I asked someone to teach you swordsmanship and bow and arrow, I hope you can do this for me, but you failed, your father is thinking about that bitch, and he will definitely not be right Her son did it."

Xiao Beiheng was a little confused, so he asked: "Mother, why do I have to do this, can't we just send assassins?"

Empress Wen said: "Stupid, only if you kill Xiao Zhuo with your own hands, can you prove that my son is better than that bitch's son. You told your mother before that as long as Shen Yuexi is around, the surname Xiao can't die. Now Shen Yuexi Already dead, there is still Xiao Xiao, you must kill him for your mother yourself."

Xiao Beiheng hesitated, and asked: "The news from Shengjing may not be true, maybe Shen Yuexi is cheating her death."

"I saw her drink it with my own eyes. There is no antidote to the Heartbroken Grass, and if you drink it, you will definitely die." Empress Wen picked up the veil from the table, "You quietly prepare the army. I will return to Beijing immediately to see Your Majesty."

Xiao Beiheng stood up and said, "Mother, what do you want to say to Dad?"

Wearing a veil, Empress Wen said, "Find a scapegoat and appease Shengjing so that I can buy you time."
