Chapter 459 Yan Qi's painstaking friends become enemies (5)
In the palace, in the upper study.

The emperor was discussing matters with Prime Minister Zhao when the eunuch outside the door came in and reported respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is here."

Chu Yiqi raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you see that I was discussing something with Prime Minister Zhao?"

"Yes," the little eunuch turned pale, now the emperor is more violent than before.

Before the little eunuch could leave, he heard the eager voice of the eunuch outside: "The Empress Dowager, please stay."

But the queen mother had already pushed the little eunuch away and walked in. In the study, the emperor's face was dark and ugly, staring at the queen mother, Prime Minister Zhao got up quickly: "Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."

The emperor nodded in agreement, Prime Minister Zhao and the eunuchs all retreated, leaving only the emperor and the empress dowager mother and son.

The queen mother is not as strong as before, her eyes are red: "Emperor, why did you arrest your uncle?"

It turned out that the Empress Dowager forcefully asked the emperor to let the general Mei Shan go. This incident aroused the opposition of all the courtiers in the court. Many people stood up to impeach Mei Shan for leaving the border without authorization, which caused the loss of many soldiers at the border. Please withdraw the emperor. Meishan's position as a general made him think about his mistakes in the capital, and another person was sent to guard Lianyang Pass.

The emperor immediately agreed to play, and sent someone to intercept Meishan from the middle of the road, and now he is being held in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

The queen mother rushed over immediately after receiving the letter from the Mei family.

The emperor stared at the queen mother gloomily, with a cold sneer on his lips.

"The queen mother is really ridiculous. Don't you know that in the court hall, all the courtiers are impeaching my uncle without the law and leaving the border without authorization, causing such a big thing to happen at the border. Do you think he is worthy of being our great general? ?”

The queen mother's body softened, and she was about to fall to the ground. Qi'er wanted to seize the 20 military power of the Mei family. If the Mei family was deprived of 20 military power, would it still be the wealthy Jingchuan Marquis in the future?When the Queen Mother thought of this, anger rose in her heart, and she worked so hard to promote her son as God, did she end up like this?
"Qi'er, how can you do this? It is good for you to know that your uncle holds 20 military power. He is your strong backing."

"Backing?"

Chu Yiqi sneered: "Didn't the empress say that if there is no Zhen, would there still be King Ding? Can people in the Jingchuan Hou Mansion still presume that the king will be the king? Is such a Jingchuan Hou Mansion still my strong backing?"

Cold sweat broke out all over the queen mother's body, and she looked at Chu Yiqi in pain: "My son, the queen mother did something wrong. The queen mother shouldn't have said such things to you. Meishan is really your real uncle."

It's a pity that Chu Yiqi ignored her and waved directly: "Mother, go back, mother, don't talk about this matter again, my son is not a heartless person, even though Mei Shan made such a mistake, I don't intend to kill him, but Take away his military power and let him reflect in the Jingchuan Marquis Mansion."

The Queen Mother almost took a breath away, seizing Meishan's military power, it would cost his life more than killing him.

He has held military power all his life and led soldiers to fight, how can he bear this, not to mention that 20 soldiers are Mei Shan's life.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager only felt that the anger in her heart was getting hotter, and her fingers were tightly clenched in her sleeves.

Chu Yiqi said lightly: "Mother, right now I still have some kindness for your Mei family, so don't think about things you shouldn't think about in the end. If so, I'm afraid I won't even have the last trace of kindness."

The emperor's meaning was very clear, if the queen mother did something later, the emperor would not mind beheading everyone in the Mei family.

The empress dowager's face was as pale as paper, and the emperor called out: "Come on, please return the empress dowager to the palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The little eunuch was ordered to come in and invited the queen mother out. As soon as she left, the emperor squinted and stared at the leaving queen mother, and suddenly called Xu An to come in: "From today onwards, send more people to wait outside the queen mother's palace. , remember, ordinary people are not allowed to see the Queen Mother."

Xu An's face darkened, the emperor put the empress dowager under house arrest in disguise, what happened, but Xu An didn't dare to speak, and immediately went out and sent more guards to guard outside the empress dowager's palace.

In the queen mother's palace.

As soon as the queen mother came back, she fell down on the soft couch, gasping for breath after breath. She felt that she was really going to be tortured to death by that wicked son. She said that she was his mother and Meishan was his mother. My dear uncle, why didn't he believe it, and took away Meishan's military power, he is an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.

The Empress Dowager really wanted to strangle Chu Yiqi to death, and regretted it in her heart. How could she have helped this guy ascend the throne of the emperor? If she had known that this wicked son was so unfilial, she should have strangled him to death.

The queen mother was so angry that she burst into tears, but there was no one in the hall.

She let the palace maid and eunuch go down, and she could only cry secretly by herself if she felt wronged.

The Empress Dowager was crying, when suddenly a caring word sounded in her ears: "Empress Mother, what's wrong with you?"

The queen mother looked over quickly, and saw Chu Yilin, king of Ding, appearing in front of her. Chu Yilin looked at the queen mother and said quickly, "Suddenly there are a lot of guards outside. Why do I feel that the emperor seems to have put the queen under house arrest?"

Seeing Prince Ding Chu Yilin, the queen mother threw herself into Chu Yilin's arms and cried loudly: "Lin'er, what kind of evil did the queen mother do? Why did she give birth to such a wicked son as your emperor brother? The queen mother regrets it. "

King Ding Chu Yilin's eyes flickered, he stretched out his arms to put his arms around the queen mother, and persuaded softly: "Queen mother, don't be sad, I will talk to the emperor later, but why did the emperor arrest uncle?"

As soon as Chu Yilin finished speaking, the queen mother began to cry again. All of this was her fault. If she hadn't lied to Qi'er, such a thing would not have happened, but there is no medicine for regret in the world.

"Lin'er, what should we do now, your brother wants to seize the 20 military power of the Mei family."

"How could this be?"

Chu Yilin raised his long eyebrows, his face was puzzled, and his face was full of distress for the queen mother. The queen mother held his hand and shouted angrily: "I knew that my Mei family would have supported you as emperor. , you will definitely not be cruel like that scoundrel."

"How could this king have the heart to treat his mother and uncle like this, they are my relatives."

The queen mother cried again, feeling hopeless in her heart. Chu Yilin gently advised her: "Mother, don't be too sad. You are so sad that it won't help. You should find a way to help uncle get back 20 military power. Uncle is the mother's queen." It’s not that I don’t know, military power is like life, if he is taken military power, it will be his life.”

"What else can we do now, your brother is determined to touch the Mei family."

The queen mother said harshly, looking at King Ding suddenly: "I can't let the Mei family fall like this. If there is no military power, the Mei family is nothing, and everyone in the court can see that the emperor doesn't want to see the Mei family. You can deceive my Mei family."
