The queen is charming, but powerful ministers lure her to seize power and usurp the throne

Chapter 8 The emperor breaks the situation
Could it be that Gu Heng lied to her?Zhe Sang couldn't help but have doubts.

In fact, she has always been worried about the transaction with Gu Heng.The essence of trading is buying and selling, one buys and the other sells.She wanted the most powerful official in the Jin Dynasty to work for her, but she had no power and power and could not protect herself. What could she buy with him?
That day he said that he wanted to feed a tiger with his own body, but after so many days he had no intention of touching her. Of course Zhe Sang was self-aware, and she did not have the alluring appearance to dazzle the emperors and generals.

The bustling world wants nothing more than money, power, and beauty.But Gu Heng already had it, and he couldn't offer any benefits to seduce him.

This meant that Gu Heng always had a way out.When he was in a good mood, he could help him. When he was in a bad mood, he could leave at any time, and even sell himself to the emperor as a favor.

Zhe Sang was shocked to realize that the only life-saving straw in his hand would break at any time. He felt that his heart was sinking to the bottom of the water, and it was so stuffy that it was suffocating.

The breeze ruffled her black and broken hair, and the pale-faced person raised her head and looked out the window. The light and shadow on her slender neck looked like an elusive hand asking for help in the deep lake.

Outside the window, there are vermilion palace walls and solemn cornices.Farther away is the blue sky, white clouds, and the clear and warm sunshine, which seems to illuminate every dark corner.

In addition to interests that can drive people, other means can too.

She couldn't give Gu Heng any benefits, but she could completely pull him into the water.If they were grasshoppers on the same rope, could Gu Heng change his mind?Can you retreat at any time?
She closed her eyes slightly, and there was only one path in front of her.Not only did she want to be close to Gu Heng, but she also wanted to be pregnant with his heir.In this way, Jin could completely coerce Gu Heng to help him, and if he didn't help, he would be dead. If he quit, he could keep the queen's position. With the emperor's heir beside him, the emperor would have no excuse to depose the queen, and he couldn't easily kill her.

Zhe Sang felt sad that one day she would do such obscene things. What was the difference between her behavior and Su Qiong'an's?
She also wanted to preserve her reputation and be respected and loved by others, but she had no chance.

In the Imperial Study Room, Eunuch Xu hunched his back and whispered, "All the court officials have gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion. They are probably planning to force the Holy Minister to go to Dali Temple."

The sharp eagle eyes narrowed slightly, the emperor was angry, and everyone in the palace shrank slightly, a little scared.

"Xiaohua, what's going on with the sound of the piano?" The emperor still didn't believe that all this was a coincidence.

Su Qiong'an first made a fuss, and then played the piano late at night. Even if he was the person he loved most, he couldn't trust him wholeheartedly. After all, there was a whole five years between them.But doing so would only do harm to Su Qiong'an, and he thought he was being suspicious again.

"The noble man said that he had insomnia late at night and played the song on a whim. He didn't know that there was anyone in the Qinghe Palace." The palace maid Xiaohua said, "Liu Zhaoyi also sent someone to check, and there was nothing unusual."

The emperor frowned and waved her back.

Eunuch Xu saw that the emperor obviously had no intention of handing him over. He thought of Xiao Zizi's words last night and rolled his eyes.

He lowered his head and walked up the first few steps, "The noble status is a bit special, but it's not impossible to stay."

"What can you do?"

"A few days ago, didn't the adults say that the emperor's heir is the foundation of the country? If you are a noble person -" Eunuch Xu didn't say the next words, but the emperor already understood.

He thought and said nothing.

Eunuch Xu knew his concerns. In this way, he really saved the beauty but also damaged the royal family's face.

If the person is handed over directly to Dali Temple, even if the world speculates that the emperor has an affair with the former empress, there is no evidence. If the emperor denies it, it means there is no such thing.

If the emperor's heir is used to protect the nobles, it means that the emperor has completely forgotten it. The new emperor has only been on the throne for half a year and has a weak foundation. If something like this happens, not only will his reputation be lost for a lifetime, but he will also be shaken and his majesty will be undermined.

This is no ordinary woman, Su Qiong'an is the former queen - his sister-in-law.Whether he wants fame or people, it depends on how he chooses.

The emperor had already made his choice when he put Su Qiong'an into the harem. She was the person he had loved since he was young. He couldn't bear to stay with her, so why would he send her away?

This is the most intense moment in the court since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Within one hall, there are three factions.

Led by Prime Minister Gu Heng, he strongly requested Su Qiong'an to go to Dali Temple to interrogate whether there were any accomplices harboring evil intentions.

Led by Master Guo, the minister, he believed that the previous dynasty was overthrown and a woman was insignificant. The emperor's heir should be the priority and the interrogation would be delayed until the child was born.

The last group of people seized on Su Qiong'an's identity and bluntly said that she was a demon concubine who brought harm to the country and interfered with the Sacred Heart.

Everyone held their own opinions and became very noisy.

The stalemate lasted for more than half a month. The emperor first demoted the prime minister's cousin Gu Shilang from his official position, and then arrested some of the most troublesome people in Yushitai, and killed a wave of civil servants.

This matter has also been widely circulated among the people. Everyone has a tendency to gossip, let alone such a scandalous incident in the royal family.

There is a new drama about the Liyuan. It tells the story of a lady from an official family falling in love with a poor scholar, but the lover is separated. The lady is forced to marry another man, and the scholar has no choice but to marry another man. Fortunately, when he returns to his hometown in high school, the lady's lover Her husband died of illness and was bullied, but the scholar did not forget his old love to help him. The lover finally stayed together after twists and turns, but I don't know how the scholar felt about his new wife.

However, the storyteller in the tea house talked about the old dynasty, and said that Emperor Wen 200 years ago was a romantic and lustful man. Not only did he order to guard beauties everywhere, but he also ordered his own daughter-in-law, the wives of ministers, or the late emperor and concubines to be taken away from anyone who entered the palace. Anyone who catches his eye will use any means to snatch it away, which is simply unscrupulous and has no regard for human ethics.

No matter how noisy the ruling and opposition parties are, or how popular the rumors are, things will eventually come to an end.

The cousin of the imperial censor was sent to the Ministry of Rites, and Prime Minister Gu's third brother was sent to the Ministry of War. This was regarded as the emperor's comfort and retreat for the two.As for those ministers who accused the emperor of being unethical and incestuous, Song Qing and others were demoted and killed. After all the trouble, no one dared to say anything.

Su Qiong'an finally entered the harem as Mrs. An. As for the remnants of the previous dynasty who had no regard for human relations, everyone had a tacit understanding of ambiguity. They said they would wait until the emperor's heir was born before making a decision. In fact, it just meant leaving it alone.

When Chongqing heard the result, his eyes were red with anger, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only silently feel heartbroken for Zhesang.

Things went round and round, but they returned to the starting point. Zhe Sang began to "sickly" and could not leave Yong'an Palace more and more. She was as silent as if she was not the queen in the harem.

During this period, she first tried to persuade the emperor several times in the spirit of "virtue and reason". When she saw that the emperor was indifferent every time, she had no choice but to wipe away her tears and leave.

Later, when the holy decree came down, Concubine Shu couldn't sit still at all, and encouraged the concubines to come to Yong'an Palace.Zhe Sang's tears were not yet dry, and he said lonelyly that the two of them had made an engagement as early as when they were in the boudoir of the Su Mansion, but the world had made Yanfei troublesome, but five years ago, I thought he had already let go and forgotten, today Only then did he realize that he had never given up. The emperor had already made up his mind, so he might as well just let the lovers go.

Concubine Shu's face became increasingly ugly as she listened.

Concubine Shu had naturally heard about the old stories of the three of them, and none of the courtiers or queens could stop them. She knew that everything was a foregone conclusion and could not be changed, so she had no choice but to leave.

"It's so arrogant!" Lu Yi came in angrily, the anger in his eyes about to burst out.
