Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 260
At the end of summer of this year, King Chuxiu of Lu received the imperial edict's approval, and set off at starry night to go to Haojing to meet the emperor, and took the opportunity to visit his mother and concubine Jiang.

"I heard that in a few days, King Lu Chuxiu will arrive in the capital. I don't know if the empress is ready to get twice the result with half the effort?" The heavy tents were lowered in the Chonghua Palace. Imperial Concubine Jin ordered that the maid Lianxiang came in to answer, and no one expected it. It turned out that the true identity of this "Lianxiang" was confusing.

"Yunniang, in the capital, my elder brother has secretly assembled an army. Once we make a move, the army can quickly control the nine gates of the capital in the first place. There is absolutely no problem." Concubine Jin boasted confidently.

"My lady, did the senior doctor Cheng Rong get rid of it?" Yun Niang suddenly changed the subject.

"Didn't Cheng Rong resign and return to his hometown? Now, more than half of the civil servants and military generals in the court are listening to our orders. It shouldn't be a big deal to let Cheng Rong go." Concubine Jin smiled contemptuously.

"Wrong, empress, I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one person go. This Cheng Rong, treacherous and cunning, is one of our biggest threats. We must never let the tiger go back to the mountain. If the empress is unable to spare, I can send us to Xirong The warrior, kill this man halfway!" Yun Niang said with a fierce look on her face.

"Okay, Yunniang, it's up to you. However, there are many guards around Minggong now. How to end his life is a difficult problem. To kill him? Before Minggong eats, his trusted eunuch will taste the taste for him. , use a knife? I’m also afraid that there are too many guards around Ming Gong, if something bad happens, none of us will be able to escape.” Concubine Jin worried.

"It's easy, ma'am. Didn't I say before that our Xirong has already arranged an eyeliner beside Mingong, and now is the time to use him. Don't worry, the situation will inevitably reverse at a critical moment, ma'am Now we only need to secretly order Zhou Wu, the general of the Song Dynasty, to assemble a heavy army early, and wait for the situation in the court to change, and then escort Hui En to Beijing to succeed!" Yunniang laughed ferociously.

"These days, there seems to be something wrong with the atmosphere in Chaoyang Palace." Early in the morning, after Baosi had finished dressing and accepted the greetings from the concubines, she took Axi and Mingyue for a walk on the veranda, admiring the Looking at the lonely lotus in the pond, Bao Si suddenly turned her head, stared at the happy A Xi, and asked a question quietly.

"My lord, it's sunny today, so why is the atmosphere wrong? It must be because my lord didn't sleep well at night, so I worried too much." Axixin comforted me.

"Axi, haven't you noticed? The guards in the palace have been changed, and many of them are unfamiliar faces. I'm worried, maybe they've already made a move?" Bao Si asked suspiciously.

"My lord, King Chuxiu of Lu has arrived in Haojing and is waiting outside the hall." In the main hall of Chaoyang Palace, the officials were in the early court, and suddenly the imperial eunuch Xiao Ruzi respectfully entered the room to answer, and the amiable Ming Gong smiled and nodded He signaled for Chuxiu to enter the hall and kowtow to see him.

After a while, the first repairman dressed in court clothes solemnly saluted Ming Gong and shouted long live three times.

Minggong happily looked at the eldest son who had been separated for a long time, and couldn't help but be full of praise: "Well, he is much more stable than before, his face is darker than before, and he is also thinner."

"Thank you for your praise, father. Since you are the eldest son of the king, you will serve the country faithfully and solve problems for your father." Chuxiu hurriedly said humbly.

"Very good, Chuxiu, you go back to the harem to visit your mother and concubine first, tonight the widow will be in the Shuilong Shuren Hall, entertaining the ministers, and cleaning up the dust for you." Ming Gong said happily.

After Chuxiu retreated from the palace, the ministers of various ministries, beaming with joy, stepped forward to report, asking Ming Gong to restore Chuxiu as the crown prince.
