Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 269 Imprisoning the Empress Dowager
The gray sky just dawned, and Baili Zonglu was already wearing armor, standing majestically in front of a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and in front of them was the gate of Shangjing City.

The soldiers guarding the city trembled when they saw the large group of soldiers and horses suddenly appearing in front of them, but they dared not leave their posts without authorization. They could only hope in their hearts that they must not attack the city, otherwise he would be the first to lose The person with a small life, and then the city behind him, his family.

"You guys, guard the city gate well and don't let anyone in. I'll report to you immediately. Prince Zong led his troops to surround the capital." rushed towards the palace.

When Huo Mingzhu got the news of Baili Zonglu's rebellion, instead of being afraid, she laughed and sat unhurriedly, thinking that she had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and Baili Zonglu really couldn't hold back If she is angry, then how can she live up to his wishes.

Baili Zonglu is about to get the punishment he deserves. Her bloody revenge is about to be avenged. How can she not make her heart jump for joy.

Huo Mingzhu had someone quickly draw up an imperial decree, intending to dispatch 30 troops to attack the 10 troops of Baili Zonglu.

Huo Mingzhu thought about it carefully. Among them, there are 20 military talismans in the hands of Lin Yunxi, but there are still [-], which are the former emperor's personal soldiers. To use these soldiers and horses, you must build a town The seal of the national seal, until now, Huo Mingzhu discovered that the national seal had always been in the hands of Baili Jingqi.

Thinking of this, just as he was about to drive Jingren Palace to look for Baili Jingqi Nazhen's National Seal, he heard movement outside, like the orderly footsteps of well-trained soldiers.

Huo Mingzhu glanced at Nanny Fang, and Nanny Fang knew what Huo Mingzhu was thinking, so she went out to have a look, but when she came back, she had a pale old face with a precarious look, obviously frightened.

Huo Mingzhu frowned, and just about to ask, the door of the Palace of Compassion and Ning was gently pushed open, and a tall figure walked in, because of the backlight, Huo Mingzhu couldn't tell who this person was.

When this person stepped in, Huo Mingzhu recognized him by the bright yellow clothes - Baili Jingqi.

A trace of surprise flashed in Huo Mingzhu's heart, but he could only suppress the surprise, already frowning tightly and said to Baili Jingqi: "Your Majesty, now that Prince Duan is rebelling outside, the Ai family is planning to cut down the feudal clan , please take out the Zhen Guo Guo Seal."

"Ah."

Huo Mingzhu answered with a chuckle, this chuckle was very light, but it shook Huo Mingzhu's heart, she opened her eyes wide and looked at Baili Jingqi in front of her.

The expression on his face should not be like this, this expression only appeared on Baili Zonglu, and the sharpness in those eyes was not what Baili Jingqi should have.

"who are you?"

"Mother, even I can't recognize you?" Baili Jingqi walked towards Huo Mingzhu step by step with steady steps. Although those eyes were sharp, there was still anger, and more, they were love, just like Huo Mingzhu. In the past love, this has not changed.

Huo Mingzhu looked at the Baili Jingqi in front of her, except for her demeanor and way of speaking, nothing changed, she still had this face, this body, but Huo Mingzhu just felt that this was another person .

"Why is the Queen Mother looking at me like this?" Baili Jingqi had already walked in front of Huo Mingzhu. Although Huo Mingzhu was sitting on the high seat and Baili Jingqi was standing, Huo Mingzhu just felt that Baili Jingqi Qi is now more than a cut taller than him.

"The emperor's secret surprised Aijia." Huo Mingzhu tried hard to stabilize her momentum, she was indeed frightened by Baili Jingqi.

How is this silly Baili Jingqi? From his appearance just now, his expression and way of speaking, Huo Mingzhu knew that Baili Jingqi was the one who pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger and hid the deepest.

She couldn't help recalling her previous life.

The more he thought about it, the more he frowned, and he really couldn't figure out what was going on, why Baili Jingqi, who had a tragic end in his previous life, and everyone said he was a foolish prince, would suddenly behave like this now.

Huo Mingzhu couldn't figure out many reasons, and Baili Jingqi didn't have a chance to let her think about it. He said with a faint smile: "The queen mother is really smart. Just by looking at it, I can tell that I am different from usual."

Baili Jingqi looked at Huo Mingzhu with a smile, admiring but also joking.

"It turns out that the emperor is very wise and foolish, hiding murderous intentions. I only blame Aijia for looking at the whole situation, but he didn't count you in it." I always knew that Baili Jingqi would be the biggest change in the situation, but Huo Mingzhu thought it was Such a change happened because she changed the situation, but she didn't know that the change made her unacceptable.

Just now I heard the footsteps of the soldiers. There were at least a thousand people outside the Palace of Compassion and Ning. Huo Mingzhu crossed Baili Jingqi and looked outside, but saw soldiers standing outside wearing armor and holding weapons, looking at the crowd. The battle might have surrounded the Palace of Compassion and Peace, thinking of this, Huo Mingzhu's heart skipped a beat.

Baili Zonglu is now leading troops to surround Shangjing, and will break into the city in a few days. If she cannot send troops...

"Empress Dowager, from now on, you will stay in the Palace of Compassion and Ning to take care of yourself. As for the matter of cutting down the feudal clan, I have my own ideas." Baili Jingqi laughed.

Looking at the extremely handsome Baili Jingqi, Huo Mingzhu really had a headache, Baili Jingqi was going to put her under house arrest, this is not possible, so he said to Baili Jingqi: "The emperor is going to put Ai's family under house arrest? Is the emperor not afraid that doing so will disturb the court?"

Baili Jingqi said: "I am the king of a country, and the empress dowager is just listening to the government. Now that the empress dowager is ill, naturally there is no need to participate in the affairs of the government."

"The emperor made up his mind to imprison the Ai family here?" Huo Mingzhu stared at Baili Jingqi for a moment. In the past, although she used Baili Jingqi, she did not hurt him at all. Now he will She was imprisoned here, and the anger in Huo Mingzhu's heart welled up and passed out from her eyes.

But Baili Jingqi said calmly: "While we are suppressing the traitors, the Empress Dowager will stay in the Palace of Compassion and Peace." After finishing speaking, he turned and left, leaving Huo Mingzhu and Nanny Fang alone. I froze for a long time.

Huo Mingzhu is regretting that she didn't see Baili Jingqi's true face clearly, and she followed his way in vain. Now that she has won Baili Zonglu, she is imprisoned here and unable to resist. Thinking of this, Huo Mingzhu is depressed In the chest, it is difficult to calm down.

Her great revenge was not avenged, but Baili Jingqi was imprisoned here. She had to think of a way, and she couldn't just sit and wait for death. Yes, Lin Yunxi, her cousin, was already a powerful general at the moment. Her military power can compete with Bailizong's law firm, but how will she pass the news on now?
Thinking of this, Huo Mingzhu got up, and Nanny Fang hurried over to support her. Huo Mingzhu waved away Nanny Fang's support. She was still so young, and it wasn't like Baili Jingqi said that she was ill, so why did she help her? !

Huo Mingzhu didn't want to admit it, she was in a panic at the moment.

She ran to the door, and when she was about to go out, a soldier stopped her respectfully and said, "Empress Dowager, please don't make things difficult for your subordinates."

"Is it you who is making things difficult for the family now, or is the family making things difficult for you?" Huo Mingzhu was so angry that her expression changed, and her aura was so full that the soldier who stopped her knelt down and begged for mercy.

Huo Mingzhu didn't really want to force her way out, I'm afraid it would be useless to go out, Baili Jingqi dared to order people to surround the Palace of Compassion and Ning, so she would have left her behind.

I'm afraid that Baili Jingqi controlled all her strength in the battle between her and Baili Zonglu in the past. Now that I think about it, it's not surprising why Lin Yunxi didn't go to court in recent days. She also thought about letting him rescue her.

Glancing at the prostrate soldiers, Huo Mingzhu turned around fiercely and returned to the hall.

On the other hand, Baili Jingqi, with the royal air in every gesture, swept away the foolishness of the past, sat on the high dragon chair, and scanned the ministers kneeling in the court with a pair of eagle-like eyes.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Huo Mingzhu cleaned up these ministers for a while, and the people from Baili Zonglu were gone, which made Baili Jingqi feel a lot more comfortable, but because he didn't do it himself, but I'm a little bit sorry.

He deployed for a long time, but in the end, Huo Mingzhu came in, insisting on attacking Baili Zonglu first, and uprooting Baili Zonglu. Now, Baili Zonglu used the most stupid method to rebel, and then Given the opportunity to eradicate him completely, he had to make good use of it.

"Now, Prince Duan is gathering troops to station in the suburbs, trying to invade the capital and replace me. Such a traitor, everyone will punish him." After saying this, Baili Jingqi looked around at these ministers, and then He called out a name: "General Chang."

"The last general is here." A general in armor came out from the ranks of military attaches, and knelt down respectfully to Baili Jingqi.

This Chang Shangyu is a member of Baili Jingqi, his official position is not very high, and he does not have a lot of military power in his hands. Therefore, no one pays attention to him on weekdays. Therefore, he escaped the contest between Baili Zonglu and Huo Mingzhu The time involved, now that Baili Jingqi no longer hides his strength, he feels full of energy all over his body, and thinks that he can finally show his strength.

Baili Jingqi looked at General Chang, nodded in satisfaction and said, "As per my will, General Chang will be made the Marshal of the Army and Horses, and lead 30 soldiers to fight against the traitors. We must take Baili Zonglu down."

After Baili Jingqi finished speaking, Xiao Anzi walked towards Chang Shangyu with a soldier talisman, and there was a soldier talisman for 30 soldiers and horses.

"The end will follow the order."

When Xiao Anzi returned to Baili Jingqi's side, he couldn't help but take a look at Baili Jingqi. He had been with the emperor for such a long time. He used to be the prince, but now he became the emperor. I don't know, the usual prince has been keeping a low profile.

"My dear friends, do you have a show?" Baili Jingqi certainly knew in his heart that anyone with eyes could see his changes, but he didn't intend to explain. What is there to explain? At this moment, he is Dayong. The king is no longer that silly prince trampled on by everyone.

No one asked to play, so he retreated. Baili Jingqi did not go to Huo Mingzhu, but came to the imperial study. A trace of cruelty flashed in the wise eyes.
