Chapter 302 Palace Change
Empress Dowager Lu picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully, then got up, walked slowly to Si Zhong, and spoke unhurriedly.

"Tomorrow night, the rebels will enter the palace and try to assassinate the Holy Majesty, and the Aijia had to gather all the imperial guards to hunt down the assassin, but unfortunately, the assassin succeeded.

The prince was young, so the Ai family had no choice but to take charge of the dragon seal temporarily and manage the court. "

Having said that, Empress Dowager Lu paused, looked down at Si Zhong, and asked word by word.

"Do you know how long Aijia has been waiting for the sky?"

Si Zhong didn't say anything anymore, knowing that it would be useless to talk too much.

Empress Dowager Lu looked outside the brightly lit door and said without expression.

"Today, when the officials and family members enter the palace, only your wife is missing. The Ai family is tired of hearing those reasons. You should be glad that the Ai family believes in you.

Now everything is ready, only Dongfeng is owed, you just need to do what you should do, go back. "

After Si Zhong thanked him, he left the palace alone. Looking at the empty street, he felt an inexplicable sense of sadness in his heart.

……

After Si Zhong left, Empress Dowager Lu went to the emperor's bedroom. The emperor was still sound asleep. Although he was provided with soup and medicine every day, he had lost a lot of weight and his complexion was terrible, as if he had aged several years.

Seeing such an ordinary emperor, Empress Dowager Lu couldn't help but sigh in her heart, so there is only one breath left, which is no different from death.

Even worse than death.

She caressed Zou Yuan's thin cheek lovingly, and murmured.

"Soon, soon you will be free."

Empress Dowager Lu left contentedly, not noticing that the fingertips of the person on the bed moved.

……

The next day, the chaos in the capital was unprecedented. A large number of chaotic parties were raging, and the people shut their doors behind closed doors and dared not go out.

At night, the palace was brightly lit. The Empress Dowager sat in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, listening to the sound of swords clashing outside, she seemed to be planning a strategy, but her trembling hands betrayed her nervous heart.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound outside finally stopped. It was already the middle of the night, but Empress Dowager Lu's eyes were still wide open.

She glanced at the eunuch beside her, her voice was a little hoarse.

"Go out and have a look."

After the eunuch went out, he came back after a while and said.

"Empress Dowager, it's all over."

Empress Dowager Lu was so excited that she almost shed tears. She raised her hand and said to the eunuch.

"Fuai's family go out and have a look."

Empress Dowager Lu went out of the house, looked at the corpses on the ground outside, and couldn't help laughing twice.

Finally, finally, the day has come.

Empress Dowager Lu sent all her cronies tonight. At this moment, the battle in the capital will only be worse than the battle in the palace.

At this time, Guo Yi, the leader of the Yulin Army, came over with a group of people, and Empress Dowager Lu immediately went up to ask.

"Can the emperor solve it? Take me to see it."

Guo Yi nodded.

"Empress Dowager, please follow me."

Similarly, the road to the emperor's bedroom was very familiar to Empress Dowager Lu. After all, since Zou Yuan was bedridden, she would come every day. It seemed that she could only feel at ease when she saw Zou Yuan lying motionless on the bed.

Empress Dowager Lu walked quickly and arrived at the bedroom.

She was excited and couldn't wait to lift the emperor's bed curtain, wanting to watch him die with her own eyes.

However, to her surprise, the bed was actually empty, and there was no shadow of Zou Yuan.

Empress Dowager Lu's heart tightened, and she immediately turned around, wanting to ask what happened.

But just before she turned around, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Is the Empress Dowager looking for me?"
