From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 175 Let Mei Zhannan die of serious injury
Now he hated King Huai of Chu to death, and the emperor didn't even call his brother anymore.I just regret that time can't be turned back, and I can't send him to the fief early.

Although the empress dowager is a woman-like generation, she is a woman cultivated by a wealthy family. Moreover, she entered the palace not as a concubine but as a queen.Therefore, my vision and mind are wider than others, and I see problems more deeply and long-term.

Unexpectedly, the prince would do such a rebellious thing in order to seize power, and the empress dowager felt very uncomfortable in every possible way.The prince is her grandson, and she is also the one who puts her high hopes on him, but now he is already the prince, so why go to win over Mei Zhannan?

The most important thing is that he still uses such indecent methods. Could it be that he is also obsessed and crazy like his uncle King Huai of Chu?
Feeling that this matter is not in line with common sense, and it does not seem like something the prince would do, the empress dowager thought for a long time, then frowned and asked: "Did she say it herself or did you send someone to investigate? Have you asked the prince? Are you sure about this matter?" ?”

This is a big matter, and it is related to the country and the country. If it is not handled properly, there will be endless troubles.

The emperor saw that the empress dowager was lucky at this time, and was speechless immediately: "The ancestor of the Mei family should have known that the empress had trained her mother, Mei Xin didn't mention this matter at all, she didn't say anything until the imperial physician forced Maierchen to force her. The matter was sent to investigate, it is true, King Ping also participated in it, if the son's guess is correct, this matter should be planned by King Ping. However, the crown prince is not completely ignorant, and it is not just to follow the trend, but to do it on purpose. "

Thinking of King Ping, who had been deprived of his descendants, a ruthless look flashed in the emperor's eyes.Using Mei Xin's innocence to drag the prince into the water, taking the opportunity to tarnish his reputation and provoke a war with the Mei family, is really a good skill and a good strategy.

Her heart was so stuffy that she couldn't breathe like a big rock was pressed on her, the empress dowager motioned Liu mama to get her a soft pillow to lean against her back.Taking a deep breath to calm down the anger in her heart, she thought for a while and said, "It's useless to talk about the matter so far. Before Mei Zhannan wakes up in the palace, let him die from serious injuries."

People are selfish, and the empress dowager is no exception. Besides, in terms of distant and close relatives, Mei Zhannan is not ranked at all.Therefore, the harm between the two powers is the lesser, and she chose her own children and grandchildren without hesitation.

I have always thought that the empress dowager is a wise, calm, and intelligent person, otherwise he would not have been able to become emperor, but when he heard her say such words, the emperor's first reaction was that she was confused, and , very confused.

Ridiculous and ignorant, the emperor didn't know what to say to her next, he shook his head speechlessly and said: "Mei Zhannan's life is easy, but after he dies, this matter is over? Mother, What you think is too simple. Mei Zhannan is not an orphan, no father, no mother, no son, no daughter, no clan, he has a pair of children, he has three younger brothers, behind him stands the 30 Mei family Jun, passed away from serious injuries, do you think this thing can really pass away, stop dreaming."

"Whether it's Mei Xin or Mei Jinze, they are not useless, they are not dudes like King Huai of Chu. The two of them, brother and sister, dared to send the seriously injured Mei Zhannan into the palace. Do you think they didn't think about it? Do you think they sent Mei Zhannan to the palace because he is dying and the doctors outside can't cure him?"

With a cold smile, the emperor clearly realized that his mother was getting old, and she was no longer the shrewd, capable and tolerant queen.That's right, without her father who could suppress her, and without the empress dowager who set the rules for her every day, her life is so comfortable that she thinks about everything very simply.

Seeing the mocking smile on her son's face, the empress dowager frowned.However, she did not get angry, but said patiently: "What do you mean by that? Could it be that they have other plans or are testing the king's heart?"

The Mei family was very powerful, the late Emperor and the old King of Liang didn't feel it when they were still alive, and she was always a little apprehensive about adding Mei Linlang after her son took over.And the reason why the emperor became suspicious of the Mei family was actually more or less influenced by her.

Three people become tigers, you say something, I say something, he says something, as time goes by, the fake has become real, not to mention it is still something out of nothing.

Seeing that the empress dowager's mind was clear again, the emperor said lightly: "The Mei family has always been proud of themselves, and they don't even bother to plot anything from me. As for temptation, there must be some, otherwise Mei Xin would not just let Mei Zhannan take the lead. A lieutenant is by my side. Mother, we were wrong in this matter. Not only can we not kill Mei Zhannan, we must find ways to make up for it and appease his anger. Tartars have repeatedly invaded, and the past two years have been like crazy. They got the news in two days, they got the news that Mei Zhannan was seriously injured, and recently they are about to deploy troops again."

"The Mei family has guarded Liangzhou for generations, and no one knows how to deal with the Tartars better than them. If the minister kills him now, the Tartars will attack Liangzhou immediately. When the army is overwhelming, the queen mother will ask the minister to send someone to lead Soldiers? In the Mei family’s army, all those who are capable are the generals of the Mei family, and they all come from Yiyingtang. The queen mother thinks that if the ministers kill their generals, will they still work for them?” The rabbit died Goupeng, not only the soldiers in the Mei family army, but also the soldiers in other places will be chilled.They will think that the emperor is benevolent and cannot tolerate loyal ministers and generals with great military exploits.

The empress dowager, who lived in the harem, knew about the political affairs, but she didn't expect her son's situation to be so difficult. She said a little depressed: "According to what you said, the Mei family can rebel at any time if they want to, then..."

"No, everything is right and sound. Everyone in the world knows that the Mei family has been loyal and good for generations. If they want to rebel, they will not only violate the vows of the Cheng and Mei families, but also violate morality. When the time comes, everyone will be punished if they come out of no name." In other words, they dare not do so lightly even if they have rebellious intentions." Through this incident, the emperor seemed to understand what the late emperor said to him, and also understood why he was required to treat the Mei family well.

The reaction of the brain is a little slow in old age, the empress dowager didn't want to understand, she opened her mouth and said: "Is this the reason why you ordered Mei Xin to be the eldest princess of Zhen Guo?"

Nodding his head heavily, the emperor replied truthfully: "Yes, in order not to embarrass my son, Mei Xin directly said that the flesh and blood in her belly belonged to Mei Xiao. From this point alone, my son should reward her. Speaking of which, she is also Innocent, a good girl was ruined like this, and she became a widow at a young age, my son really feels sorry for her."

"Mother, a son is also a person with children, and you are also a grandmother. If Xiao Qi is treated like this, will you suffer?" Do not do to others what you want, Mei Xin's forbearance, Mei Zhan Nan's dying brought back many memories in him, aroused his conscience and long-lost sympathy.
