Chapter 163 These rebels must be severely punished!
"The Queen Mother calms down her anger, and the ministers are helpless. As long as the Queen Mother is willing to issue an order to kill Ma Wensheng, Liu Jin and other traitors, the Queen Mother will naturally be safe and sound!"
Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Etiquette, smiled coldly and couldn't help but steal a glance at the Queen's beautiful face. She was indeed stunning! When the new emperor ascends the throne, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear to give up.
At this time, Queen Mother Zhang gritted her teeth and spit out three words: "How dare you!"
"It seems that the Queen Mother really does not shed tears without seeing the coffin. Wouldn't it be a pity if such a stunning Queen Mother died?"
Cheng Guo Gong Zhu Feng also started talking, and he also drew his bow with Zhang Yong, aiming at the Queen Xia family, and said to Zhang Sheng and Zhang Yong, the Minister of Rites, "Don't say it, this Queen is worthy of being chosen from thousands, her appearance Her figure and temperament really make you realize that all the beautiful concubines and wives in your family are colorless!”
"No need to kill him! Keep it for the new emperor!" Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, said.
"Understood! But if you two like it, it's not impossible..." Before Zhang Yong could say anything, Chengguo Duke Zhu Fengyu smiled and said: "Thank you for your kindness! I don't know what this phoenix body tastes like... Hehe! ”
"Is the Queen Mother really not agreeing?" Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, asked at this time.
Queen Mother Zhang gritted her teeth and said nothing.
At this time, Zhang Yongxian directly fired an arrow, which immediately hit the queen's right clavicle. The queen screamed in a sweet voice, and her phoenix robe immediately turned red. She fell on the stone steps like a peach blossom falling to the ground. I watched helplessly as a cold arrow penetrated my collarbone, the pain was like tearing flesh and drilling into bones!
But the Queen still gritted her teeth and looked at Queen Mother Zhang with tearful eyes: "Mother, the baby hurts!"
"You rebels, you will not die! How dare you bully my orphans and widowed mother like this!"
Empress Dowager Zhang cursed and immediately felt scared. She was not afraid of death, but she was really worried that the emperor's daughter-in-law, who was personally chosen by her son and loved so much, would be killed by these people.
"Ms. Zhang! You are just a jealous woman who allows her younger brother to cause trouble and disobey the imperial decree! Today we see that you are still the queen mother, so we will give you some face. If you continue to refuse to issue the decree, , Don’t blame me for being rude, the Queen will have no choice but to be buried for Your Majesty!”
Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, cursed loudly, thinking that since His Majesty was dead anyway, the king who would succeed him in the future would not be his descendant, so he did not worry about it.
Queen Mother Zhang gritted her teeth, not knowing what to do for a moment.
At this time, Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, ordered: "Shoot another arrow at the Queen!"
Therefore, Cheng Guogong Zhu Feng aimed at the Queen's right arm.
……
"Your Majesty is here!"
Sudden!
The sound of a whip came from outside Cining Palace.
And what came next was the rapid sound of tiles ringing!
Hundreds of Jin Yiwei with superb martial arts had arrived in advance, jumped down directly from the eaves of Cining Palace, and fired their crossbows. They immediately deflected Cheng Guogong's arrow clusters that had not yet been fired, and shot them away. Officials such as Zhang Sheng and Zhang Yong, ministers of the Ministry of Rites, forced the palace to retreat within a stone's throw.
ah!
Duke Cheng Guo Zhu Feng was also hit by numerous arrows in his arm and screamed in agony.
Moreover, the two royal guards immediately stood in front of the Queen Mother and the Queen and formed a human wall to protect the Queen Mother and Queen.
In an instant, hundreds of Jinyi guards landed on the ground, and the embroidered spring sword was drawn out.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of Jin Yiwei came out from other places and surrounded Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, and others.
"Your Majesty is here!"
There was another crack of the whip.
"Your Majesty is here!"
Immediately afterwards, there was another crack of the whip!
"How could it be! How could this be possible! Hasn't His Majesty already passed away?" Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, looked behind him.
"Didn't His Majesty pass away? There was an explosion, and Zeng Jian, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, showed up with a dragon robe." Zhang Yong also looked behind him in shock.
"Isn't your Majesty dead? Didn't you say that His Majesty is already dead?" Zhu Feng, the Duke of Chengguo, also asked hysterically and loudly, enduring the severe pain from being hit by several crossbow arrows on his arm and looking at it. Towards the back.
Other civil servants also looked behind them.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao rode over and said, "It's a pity that I have disappointed you!"
"Zeng Jian! How dare you lie to us!"
Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, gritted his teeth and cursed. At this time, Zhu Houzhao saw the queen with blood-stained phoenix robes at a glance, and immediately understood what he was talking about, and directly ordered: "Taiwan Li is here, go quickly! Go quickly!"
With that said, Zhu Houzhao dismounted his horse and ran over, and ordered:
"Preach my decree and seal off the capital! Anyone who dares to leave the city, regardless of their status, will be killed! Order the third and fourth divisions of the Guards to capture Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, and Zhu Feng, the Duke of Chengguo, who are relatives of the nine clans. Their disciples and old friends make up the ten clans , arrest them all!”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, and Zhu Feng, Duke of Chengguo, were so frightened that they immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! We have also been instigated by traitors!"
At this time, Zhang Yong turned pale with fright. He never thought that Zhu Houzhao was not dead. When he thought that he might become a favorite and a criminal, he hurriedly climbed up to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, I know that I am guilty. The slave was instigated by the traitor! ”
Zhu Houzhao was now eager to see the queen's injury and had no time to reprimand Zhang Yong. He kicked Zhang Yong aside: "You bastard, get out of here!"
Immediately, Zhu Houzhao ran to the queen, hugged the queen, hurriedly and slowly untied the phoenix robe and took a look, only to see a dark arrow cluster stuck on the snow-white skin, which was very eye-catching! For a moment, I couldn't help but ask: "Does it hurt?"
"To tell the emperor, brother, it doesn't hurt!" the queen replied, clenching her pink fists.
Zhu Houzhao did not dare to act rashly. Seeing this, he just smiled and immediately looked at Queen Mother Zhang: "Queen Mother!"
Queen Mother Zhang kept looking at Zhu Houzhao with tears streaming down her face. After Zhu Houzhao called her, she couldn't help but slap Zhu Houzhao: "bastard!"
"The Queen Mother, please calm down!"
Ruyi knelt down at this time.
The other maids also knelt down!
In the end, Queen Mother Zhang was unwilling to continue the fight. She just pointed at Zhu Houzhao and cursed: "You have learned how to use tricks now, right? What a scheming emperor! What a scheming emperor! What a way to lure the snake out of the hole! Toying with the officials while applauding ! Very good! It’s really good! You’ve got your mother and your daughter-in-law involved! You are truly the wisest emperor of the Ming Dynasty!”
After saying that, Queen Mother Zhang burst into tears. Perhaps she was completely relaxed at this moment. After all, at that moment before, she really thought that she was going to lose her only son after losing her husband.
"Queen mother, calm down! I never thought that these thieves would be so crazy and dare to break into Cining Palace and hurt the queen!"
Zhu Houzhao also knew that he had gone too far in this matter, so he could only bow his head and admit his mistake.
At this time, more and more officers and soldiers came over, and Qiu Yue and others also came to report:
"Your Majesty! The decoration has been completed according to your instructions!"
"Your Majesty! All the key criminals have been detained!"
"Your Majesty! Doctor Li is here!"
After hearing that Li Yanwen was coming, Zhu Houzhao raised his head, and Madam Zhang also said hurriedly: "Doctor, please show my son quickly!"
"I'm offended!"
Li Yanwen said and came over for diagnosis. After only one glance, he immediately raised his head and did not dare to look again: "The Queen Mother and Your Majesty, don't worry, the Queen Mother's injury is harmless and not poisonous. The thief really just wanted to scare her, and The force is not strong, it has already scabbed, and the wound is only on the collarbone, only on the shoulder. Your Majesty can just pull it out yourself! Apply it with your own self-made gold sore medicine, and it won’t leave any scars!”
Li Yanwen said.
After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao said to the queen: "Xianger, hold back, I will pull out the arrow for you!"
"Yes." The queen nodded, with a slight smile on her pale face.
Zhu Houzhao decisively and quickly pulled out the arrow cluster, and immediately sprinkled it with Li Yanwen's medicine, and immediately held it down with gauze. At this time, the queen had already bit Zhu Houzhao's other hand, but Zhu Houzhao was completely unaware. When he felt the pain, he found a row of fine tooth marks on his hand.
Immediately, Zhu Houzhao took the queen back to the room to rest, and she had no fever all night, which showed that the injury was indeed not serious. Zhu Houzhao felt relieved and came to the front court again, looking at Ma Wensheng and others who had just been released: "Everyone, please be fine!"
"As long as your Majesty is fine!"
Ma Wensheng hurriedly handed over his hands and replied.
Zhu Hou looked at their indifferent expressions and knew that these reformist officials, like the Empress Dowager Zhang, were also a little resentful by his plan to lure the snake out of the hole, so he asked: "Why, do you also want to blame me?"
"I don't dare!"
Ma Wensheng waited to reply, but at this time, Jiao Fang said directly:
"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this. These officials who attempted to commit rebellion during His Majesty's fake death should be severely punished, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"
"I also feel that these thieves should be severely punished, they must be severely punished!" Xu Jin also agreed.
