Chapter 848

Concubine Zhao said quickly: "His Royal Highness, it was the Queen and King Jin who gave His Majesty the medicine. The medicine is addictive. They used this to force His Majesty to give them an imperial edict to pass on the throne. Now the imperial decree is in the hands of King Jin. inside."

Xiao Wenyu turned to look at the Queen and King Jin.

The Queen, King Jin, and Queen Mother Zhao are all thinking about how to break the situation now.

Although they were scheming against each other a moment ago, at this moment they have a common goal, which is to kill the prince Xiao Wenyu.

If Xiao Wenyu is not killed, all of them will be unlucky.

As soon as the Queen, King Jin, and Queen Mother Zhao lost their minds, several people suddenly shouted towards the outside of the hall: "Come here, take down the prince."

Several figures rushed in from outside the hall, trying to rush over to take Xiao Wenyu down.

It's a pity that Xiao Wenyu brought a lot of guards from the East Palace over. Mo Bei's face changed abruptly when he saw that the Empress Dowager Zhao and the Queen intended to take down and kill the prince.

He shouted towards the outside: "Come here."

Outside, the guards of the East Palace brought by Xiao Wenyu rushed in, and both of them touched off a war.

It's just that the two gangs didn't fight, and they saw the eunuchs outside the hall running in to report: "The Empress Dowager, Lord Pei, Lord Xie and other court ministers have entered the palace."

The Empress Dowager Zhao and Queen Jin froze instantly, and no one dared to move.

Pei Shoufu Xie Yunjin, Wu Guogong and others came in eagerly from outside the hall.

The empress dowager's face paled instantly, she knew that the best time to kill the prince had already passed, and it would be impossible to kill him in the future.

It's good to get away now.

The Queen and King Jin took a step back with pale faces, but King Jin quickly thought of the imperial decree he had received, and immediately held it tightly in his hand.

After Pei Shoufu, Xie Yunjin, Wu Guogong and others came in, King Jin immediately held up the edict in his hand and shouted: "This is the imperial decree, Mr. Nie Guogong listened to the decree, and the father has passed on to this king, let this king ascend the throne as the emperor."

Pei Shoufu, Xie Yunjin and the courtiers of Duke Wu were stunned.

In the sleeping hall, the queen also said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has a decree. My son is of the orthodox blood of the Great Zhou. Before, the crown prince Xiao Wenyu was appointed as the heir of the Great Zhou. It was just to paralyze others and protect my son. Now that His Majesty is ill, he appointed my son as the heir of the Great Zhou." The new emperor of the Great Zhou, everyone immediately kneel down to accept the imperial edict."

Queen Mother Zhao quickly looked at the Queen and King Jin, and then turned to look at Xiao Wenyu. Thinking of the fact that she had ordered someone to take Xiao Wenyu down before, she had to make up for what she had done and help Xiao Wenyu take down the Queen and King Jin, otherwise Xiao Wenyu would not let her go , Let go of the Zhao family.

As for pushing the Queen and King Jin to the throne, the Queen Mother Zhao never thought about it, because the mother and son are too stupid to secure the throne.

The Empress Dowager Zhao thought about it, and immediately shouted in a deep voice: "The person who killed the emperor and conspired to seize the throne, why should he ascend the throne?"

After the Queen Mother Zhao finished speaking, she looked at Concubine Zhao, and Concubine Zhao cried out quickly: "The Empress and King Jin administered medicine to His Majesty, causing His Majesty to lose consciousness. They forced His Majesty to write down the imperial edict before His Majesty was in a coma. They deserve to die!" .”

Everyone in the hall was horrified, and finally Queen Mother Zhao ordered loudly: "Come on, take down the Queen and King Jin."

The queen and King Jin shouted after hearing this: "We didn't, we didn't give medicine to His Majesty, it was Concubine Zhao, no, it was Queen Mother Zhao who ordered Concubine Zhao to give medicine to Your Majesty."

Empress Dowager Zhao immediately sneered and mocked: "It's nonsense, your majesty is the son of the Ai family, how could the Ai family attack your majesty."

After the queen mother finished speaking, she turned to look at Xiao Yu who was on the bed and cried, "My son, wake up quickly."

Xiao Wenyu looked at the crowd in front of him coldly, and ordered the eunuch in a deep voice: "Quickly go to Doctor Xuan to come over and examine the emperor."

"Yes."

The little eunuch ran out and saw Lu Jiao leading someone in from outside the hall, so he immediately turned around and ran into the bedroom.

"Go back to His Royal Highness, Mrs. Xie has entered the palace."

Everyone in the hall turned around unexpectedly, it was Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao came to the palace so quickly, it was Xie Yunjin who found out that something was wrong in the palace, so someone went back to inform her. As soon as she got the news, she hurried over.

Not only Lu Jiao, but Pei Shoufu, Nie Guogong and others were also notified by Xie Yunjin when they rushed to the palace gate. He was afraid of something unexpected in the palace, so he notified several ministers in the court and entered the palace together.

Seeing Lu Jiao, Xiao Wenyu said impatiently, "Mrs. Xie, quickly check for the emperor to find out what's going on with him and why he's unconscious."

Lu Jiao responded and went over to check on Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu was unconscious at the moment, his pupils were constricted, and his breathing was depressed. In his condition, it was obvious that he had taken too much opium poppy to be poisoned and unconscious, and his breathing was shallow to irregular. , thought he passed out.

Lu Jiao quickly took out the silver needle and gave him a needle, and at the same time prescribed a soup prescription for people to grab the medicine.

No one in the bedroom dared to say anything, watching Lu Jiao carry out a series of rescue operations.

The Queen and King Jin were also suppressed by the Queen Mother Zhao's instigation. They wanted to resist, but the people they brought were not enough to compete with the Queen Mother Zhao and Dong Gongwei, and they stopped resisting.

However, the two of them didn't want Xiao Yu to wake up. If Xiao Yu died, they would still have a chance to fight back with the edict in hand. If Xiao Yu woke up, they would have no chance of winning.

So when others prayed for Xiao Yu to wake up, the Queen and King Jin prayed for Xiao Yu to die.

Empress Dowager Zhao was in a particularly complicated mood. She had received news from Concubine Zhao that the Queen and King Jin wanted to use Concubine Zhao to deal with Xiao Yu.

She also hated this son, and after knowing that the Queen and King Jin had not given Xiao Yu a fatal poison, she turned a blind eye to it.

She had a good idea, let Queen Jin and King plot against Xiao Yu, and then she used this to deal with the Queen and King Jin, and pushed Zhaoyi's three-year-old son to the throne. At that time, the little emperor had to listen to the arrangement of the Zhao family, or they would abolish him.

Zhaoyi and the little emperor can only rely on the Zhao family to live. When the little emperor grows up, arrange for him a queen of the Zhao family and give birth to the Zhao family. The Zhao family will become a permanent family.

Queen Mother Zhao thought well, but she didn't expect that everything would be destroyed by the prince and Xie's family in the end.

Empress Dowager Zhao was extremely annoyed, but she also knew that things had come to this point, so she could only take one step at a time.

However, she also knew that after this incident, her son and the prince Xiao Wenyu might not be able to see her. She stayed in the palace and had a hard time. Empress Dowager Zhao thought to the end and decided to wait for her son to wake up. Take the initiative to ask for an order to leave the palace and go to Bieyun Mountain to pray for his son.

In the sleeping hall, everyone had their own ideas, but Xiao Yu finally woke up after Lu Jiao injected the medicine with the needle.

When he woke up, he felt cold all over his body and shivered uncontrollably. He looked up and saw Xiao Wenyu standing beside the big bed, and couldn't help but call out: "Yu'er."

Xiao Wenyu quickly squatted down and looked at him: "Father, are you awake? How are you doing? Are you uncomfortable?"

Xiao Yu quickly remembered that before he fell into a coma, he frantically begged the Queen and King Jin to take their medicine, and if he didn't take that medicine, he couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

Only then did Xiao Yu know that Zhao Concubine drugged herself in the queen mother's palace, and it was the queen and King Jin who planned behind it.

The Queen and King Jin took advantage of this and asked him to write an imperial edict.

Without any struggle, Xiao Yu wrote down the imperial edict for them.

Because he had already written an edict to pass on the throne and placed it in the hands of Xie's family.
