Bang-bang-bang-
There were banging sounds from the palace door, and the entire palace was shaking with a rumble.
Finally, the door opened.
The siege wood was knocked down by the two people outside with a loud bang, which was deafening and raised a large amount of floating dust.
The setting sun outside broke through the thick fog and shot in.
Lingchan hugged Emperor Qianhua with tears in her eyes and a confused expression.
Tantai Shi was wearing silver armor, covered in blood, and walked into the palace step by step with a light on his back.
He raised his palm.
The soldiers behind me who ordered me to stop immediately entered the vermilion gate, leaving only three people in the palace.
The door rumbled shut again.
When he was in Tantai, he pulled off his helmet and threw it on the ground, making a distant echo in the empty palace.
The young general had wet black hair, and someone's blood splashed on his face, turning it a strange red color.
"Achan, are you okay?"
He smiled and walked over with his bloody sword, one step, two steps, the sound of his footsteps was extremely heavy.
Lingchan placed Emperor Qianhua on the ground, stood up and said, "We succeeded."
"That's great."
When Tantai pulled his bright red lips stained with blood, he knelt down heavily on one knee. Holding the sword in both hands, he lowered his head.
The pieces of bright light armor on his body collided, and the sound they made was as endless as the waves.
"Congratulations, my lord."
His armor was dripping with blood, so when he knelt down, Lingchan suddenly discovered that a long river of blood snaked out from behind him, and bright flowers bloomed on the jade ground.
This is not only the blood of the enemy, but also Tantai Shi's own blood.
…
In the twenty-third year of Qianhua's reign, on February 15th, the Queen and King An jointly forced the emperor to enter the palace, and Emperor Qianhua died on the spot.
According to some secret rumors, after the palace was broken that day, Emperor Qianhua was killed by King An himself in Tantai. The imperial concubine who was with the emperor tried her best to stop him, but to no avail. She picked up the sword with tears in her eyes, attacked King An, and beat him to death. seriously injured.
Emperor Qianhua only had two sons, Prince An and Prince. Both of them were unfilial sons who committed patricide and rebelled against their fathers, but they couldn't care about that much at this time. The dynasty could not be left without a master for a day!
But the prince huddled in the imperial palace on the outskirts of Beijing, unwilling to come forward to take charge of the overall situation. Prince An was seriously injured and fell into a coma. The court was in a state of turmoil, and no one in charge could be found.
At this time, the imperial concubine stood up.
She is calm-minded, thoughtful, and discerning...and has many followers.
Fu family, Xie family, Lu family...nobles, relatives, civil servants, military generals...
Normally, these people would dance in their own way, and some even attacked the imperial concubine, but now, when the imperial concubine spoke her words, they all bowed their knees and bowed their heads, and no one dared to disobey.
Of course, it's not like there are no dissenters. How can a mere imperial concubine do the thing of listening to politics behind the curtain?
Then they all died.
Some people uttered arrogant words in the main hall and were dragged out by the palace guards, with their blood splattered three feet high on the white jade platform; some people acted in a submissive manner and acted smart, so they were sent to jail that night; and some people saw the power of the imperial concubine. It's easy, I can't help but feel my heart fluttering, I think it's okay to have sex with me, but if I make the slightest move, I will be discovered. The noble lady is merciful, and only the Yi tribe is the only one.
Of course, these idiots are not the only ones in Emperor Qianhua's court.
Many people were loyal to Emperor Qianhua, and therefore, they were willing to believe in the concubine whom Emperor Qianhua loved with all his heart during this precarious time. Otherwise, do the princesses who have been living in the harem come forward? They didn't have any political literacy. After all, the imperial concubine was the one who was allowed to interfere in the government affairs by Emperor Qianhua's express decree.
They believed that Emperor Qianhua's vision would not be wrong.
Only a few smart people smelled something unusual. Some people chose to protect themselves wisely and lurk low-key until the future. Some people were loyal and would never allow the person who harmed Emperor Qianhua to give orders in the court.
Zhang Xiangzou reported: "Sun Thief's rebel army has been unstoppable all the way. Now it has reached the front of Yanshan Mountain. If he can pass this pass, it will be easy to get to the capital. Moreover, there are large areas of fertile land in the Central Plains within the pass. He can grab it. With more food, the rebels will only become more aggressive!"
"Yes!" Lingchan sat behind the curtain, crossing her legs and eating melon seeds. "Don't you dear ladies have any useful opinions?"
"Sun Ke is coming to the capital!"
"Of course there is." Zhang Xiang narrowed his eyes and a shrewd look flashed, "As we all know, Sun Ke is from Liangzhou. Many people in Liangzhou believe in the Xuannv Temple of the Imperial Concubine. I heard that Sun Ke is also loyal to Xuannv. believer."
"Please come to the front line in person and persuade Sun Ke to surrender!"
"..."
Persuade Sun Ke to surrender?
Lingchan accidentally choked the melon seed shell into her trachea, which made her cough.
The sound of coughing spread outside the curtain, and Zhang Xiang's eyes lit up, and he shouted even harder.
"Please come to the front line in person and persuade Sun Ke to surrender!"
"Please come to the front line in person and persuade Sun Ke to surrender!"
"Please come to the front line in person and persuade Sun Ke to surrender!"
The comrades behind him also shouted loudly, and three or five people shouted with the momentum of thirty or fifty people.
Lingchan hid behind the curtain, suppressing laughter and shaking all over.
When I really dozed off, someone handed me a pillow. She was worried about how to reasonably clean up Sun Ke and his rebel army! Zhang Xiang immediately gave a good solution, which was so considerate.
…
In the twenty-third year of Qianhua, March 27th.
The imperial concubine came to the front line of Yanshan in person.
To conquer the enemy without fighting.
Sun Ke, surrender.
The reputation of the goddess is flourishing, and the incense in Xuannv Temple is flourishing.
…
In October of the twenty-third year of Qianhua.
King An had improved his health during the Tantai period, and refused all the old ministers who begged him to inherit the throne. He claimed that he had injured his body in the war and would not be able to have any heirs in the future and could not inherit the throne.
He bluntly said that the imperial concubine was able to govern the country well, and he could hardly compare with him. He was willing to serve as a soldier for the imperial concubine, guard Liangzhou for the imperial concubine, and clear away the obstruction of time.
The imperial concubine appoints female officials.
In November of the twenty-third year of Qianhua.
Prince Tantaizhi wrote to the imperial concubine, saying that he was impressed by the imperial concubine's abilities and was willing to serve the imperial concubine and asked for her mercy.
Concubine Nuo.
In the same month, a large number of courtiers entangled the deposed prince with the intention of assassinating the imperial concubine. The deposed prince was furious and scolded all the people for not being grateful for the concubine's kindness, and for being mean and ungrateful! And write a letter to the imperial concubine to expose such rebellious ministers!
The imperial concubine imprisoned the court officials involved and immediately beheaded them. She also gave the prince a hundred taels of gold and allowed him to go to court and enter the palace with the same rights as when he was still the prince.
The imperial concubine rewards the prince heavily.
The next month,
King An reported to the imperial concubine that there were a large number of officials in the capital who bullied men and women and committed evil deeds. Among them were many of the prince's associates.
The two were at loggerheads in the court, with a vague sense of tit-for-tat.
In the twenty-third year of Qianhua, the twenty-ninth lunar month, New Year's Eve.
A state banquet was held in the Taiji Hall, and the imperial concubine and officials enjoyed it together.
With the deposed prince Tantai Zhi, Prime Minister Zhang, the elder of the three dynasties, took the lead and invited the noble concubine to ascend the throne and rule the country.
I dare not accept the imperial concubine's resignation.
Please again, resign.
Three requests, finally accepted.
About to ascend the throne! The only thing missing is a queen. Who will Her Majesty the Queen of v587 marry? Can anyone guess~
