Chapter 113 Changes

In the east hall of Taiji Hall, the ministers whispered under the eaves. Prime Minister Yuchi Dun announced in public that the emperor was assassinated and the imperial guards were arresting the traitors and their accomplices. After a few simple words, they asked everyone to wait for news in the east hall. He turned to Liangfeng Hall to visit the emperor himself, but there was no news until now.

They didn't care about the large number of imperial guards next to Dongtang, and many ministers were whispering to exchange opinions. It was a great matter for the assassination of the emperor, and they were guessing who would be unlucky.

First of all, the imperial guards of the palace are divided into two parts: the outer imperial guards and the inner guards. When the emperor was assassinated, the palace uncles (divided from left to right) who were in charge of the palace guards were inseparable from the relationship, but these main generals were all from Prime Minister Yuchi Dun, so I don’t think it would be too unlucky.

Secondly, it is said that the person who assassinated the emperor was a eunuch, so the prime minister had to find problems by himself, because the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were screened by the old and young prime minister of the Yuchi family and managed by the people arranged by him. If there was any problem, it would not be up to others.

Finally, we should prepare our emotions in advance. If the Prime Minister and the King of Shu Yuchi Dun will ascend the throne to the emperor in a few days, we will be happy and cry long live, right?

The emperor was assassinated, and life and death were unknown. It is puzzling to understand who the assassin was instructed, but there is one possibility that cannot be ignored, that is, "the custody and stealing himself". If someone took this opportunity to get rid of the emperor and take the opportunity to ascend the throne to the throne, it would not be impossible.

At this point, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Yuchi family is too big. The young emperor has no real power. The royal family cannot change the status quo with the territory and army at hand, so it is not surprising that the story of that year will be repeated.

How did the Yuwen family come from? It was stolen from the Emperor of Yuan Wei.

This was just a matter of more than fifty years ago. Many people know what happened. Now the retribution has come. First, it was almost snatched away by Yang Jian, but now it is snatched away by another powerful minister and changed dynasties. This is a normal thing.

Not to mention that the Yuchi family and the Yuwen family had a relationship with nephews and uncles, the King of Jin Yuwen Hu was also cousin with the emperor, but as a result, the two emperors were deposed, and Yuwen Hu had no good ending, so the emperor and the powerful ministers would inevitably break up.

If Yuchi Dun did not want to become Yuwen Hu's second son and was killed by the whole family, he would have to replace him. This is a matter of time.

At least half of the ministers present were ministers of the Jianye City court where Yuchi Jiong, the general manager of Xiangzhou, were either former officials of the Yuchi family, or Qi ministers who surrendered during the Zhou Dynasty.

Zhou Guoping established several general administrations in the former place of Qi. Many surrendered middle and low-level officials of Qi served in new local governments. That year, Yuchi Jiong established the Yecheng court and the Chang'an court to confront each other, and they became ministers of the Yecheng court.

These people have no psychological barriers to anyone who should be loyal to anyone. Anyway, the powerful people in the Zhou State in Guanlong were regarded as the left arm and right arm by Yuwen Tai at that time, but they had no psychological barriers to betray the Yuwen family. Why did they, the old ministers of Qi, do they have no psychological barriers to the Yuwen family?

Since the rebellion of the Six Towns in Yuan and Wei Dynasty, almost sixty-five years have passed. The people on the imperial throne have changed, and it doesn’t matter who goes to that position. The key is how to maximize your own interests.

Many people have a simple idea. When it comes to being an official, their own interests are preferred. As for loyalty to the emperor, it depends on the limelight. How many fools can there be in ancient times?

Many people were waiting for a change of dynasty, and everyone was ready to calm down to be loyal to the new emperor. Just now, there was a clamor in the direction of Liangfeng Hall behind Tai Chi Hall. Because I couldn't hear clearly, the ministers were not sure what had happened.

Could it be that he had taken action? Who knows? It was just that Prime Minister Yuchi Dun came out to announce the death of the emperor, and no one was surprised.

However, there was another movement coming from the north behind Tai Chi Hall, as if many people were making noise. It was the direction of Zhaoyang Hall. If we went further north, it would be the harem where the emperor lived. What happened in that direction?

Because of the tall Tai Chi Hall blocking it, the ministers could not see the situation in the north, and only saw a little black smoke rising. Anyway, it was boring to guess, so they started to talk obscurely on the Dongtang side, waiting for the dust to settle.

It was just as the conversation was full of discussion that a team of more than ten people suddenly walked through Duanmen and walked towards the Taiji Hall. The ministers thought it was a reinforcement of the imperial guards, but when they saw the leader clearly, they suddenly realized.

Isn’t this the Duke of Guo? He came to the palace to visit the queen’s daughter?

......

In the side hall of Tai Chi Hall, Yuchi Mingyue sat on the couch and sobbed quietly. She was now the queen, but she did not feel any joy. Today, she came to the palace she had longed for for a long time and witnessed bloody scenes.

The emperor wants to kill the fourth uncle. The fourth uncle knows that the emperor wants to kill him, so he deliberately finds a substitute to die. He may have to kill the emperor next, but she is not a human being in the middle.

It is a heavy blow to Yuchi Mingyue, who is looking forward to a happy life after marriage, and the other heavy blow is that her parents have something to hide from her.

The fourth uncle wanted to do such a thing, and the father could not not know it, but the mother might not know it. As a result, the father didn't tell her anything, and even said that he must serve the emperor well after entering the palace. What's the result?

I knew that I would be a widow in the palace, so why didn’t I tell me? Could it be that I was not my biological child?

When Yuchi Mingyue thought of this, tears fell down again. Seeing this, the palace maids on the side rushed forward to comfort her and took out a handkerchief to help the queen wipe her tears. Naturally, they did not dare to neglect, but they could not really comfort the queen.

Footsteps started and the sound of talking was heard at the door. Yuchi Mingyue seemed to hear a familiar voice. She looked up and saw that it was her father coming.

"Si Niang, are you okay?"

When Yuchi Mingyue heard his father's question, he felt all kinds of grievances surged into his heart, and cried out with a "wow", like a tearful person. Yuchi Shun was extremely helpless when he saw his daughter crying like this.

He married his daughter today, and when the wedding envoy took her daughter away, he was still preparing to invite guests and friends. As a result, Yuchi Dun sent someone to report that something happened in the palace: the emperor was assassinated, and Yuchi Mingyue was safe but was frightened.

After hearing such a change, Wang was anxious to enter the palace to visit his daughter, but the visitor specially had a secret talk with Yuchi Shun, saying that the Prime Minister had something to discuss.

Yuchi Shun knew that his younger brother was going to talk to him, so he asked Wang to stay in the mansion. He rushed to the palace in a hurry. He heard a noise on the way. Looking in the sound, he found that there were several huge floating objects above the palace.

What are those things? Yuchi Shun was too far away and couldn't see clearly, so he didn't know, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong: I'm afraid that Yuchi Dun would plan something today, but he didn't reveal any news to him in advance.

Yuchi Shun held his daughter's shoulder, sat down beside him, sighed and said, "It's okay. I just knew something was wrong. I rushed into the palace to see you immediately. Don't cry, so as not to cry badly."

"Why is this happening, why is this happening..."

Yuchi Mingyue sobbed, almost making things uncomfortable. Yuchi Shun could only pat his daughter's shoulder to comfort her: "Your mother and I just knew something was wrong, alas..."

Yuchi Mingyue cried for a long time, and she didn't know if she was tired of crying or her emotions eased. With her father being by her side, she finally stopped sobbing. Yuchi Shun asked the palace maid to bring soup to moisten her daughter's throat.

"Everything is well at home, so don't worry. If you are afraid tonight, let your mother come to the palace to accompany you."

Seeing his daughter nodding silently, Yuchi Shun felt relieved and began to ask what happened in the palace today. After a while, a Hu Ben led a low report at the gate of the palace: "Duke of the Kingdom of Qi, the Prime Minister ordered the last general to come and lead the way for the Kingdom of Qi."

Hu Ben was one of the six commanders of the Zhou Dynasty's imperial guards, and Hu Ben was also the leader of the army. He was divided into the left and right Hu Ben. Yuchi Shun recognized this person as a confidant next to Yuchi Dun, nodded and said to Yuchi Mingyue: "Si Niang has a good rest first, I will come when I go."

He followed Hu Ben out of the side hall and asked as he walked: "Care you, Prime Minister? Where is it now?"

"The Prime Minister is safe and is now waiting for the Duke in Zhaoyang Palace."

Yuchi Shun's face was calm when he was talking to his daughter, but at this time he had turned ashen, his steps gradually accelerated, his fists were clenched involuntarily, and his joints were clattering.
