Faking death and leaving the palace_ Then he announced that the imperial doctor was coming. 

The death of her brother Cao Yu was a heavy blow to her, and after reading Jiang Weiren's letter, she was so angry that her body couldn't bear it anymore. 

After drinking medicine and recuperating for two days, she finally regained her composure and began to ask Wen Ying to prepare to send Yan Qing out of the palace. 

"Didn't the Ai family send someone to check? Sure enough, Wang Ting'en is no longer in the imperial mausoleum. He must have been taken over by Jiang Weiren. It's really sinister for him to keep such a hand. The chief minister deserves to be the chief minister." 

She rubbed her eyebrows and sighed. He said, "He has accumulated prestige in the court for a long time. He has only been gone for more than a month. The Ai family has far less deep roots in the court than he does. If he really brings out the late emperor's decree and mobilizes the ministers in the court, then it will be Put your majesty on the charcoal fire. The Yi family cannot really fight with him to death because of Yan Qing." 

As she spoke, her chest heaved, obviously suppressing her anger. 

Naturally, she was unwilling to do so. According to her wishes, she wanted to keep Yan Qing by her side and torture her, but who knew that Jiang Weiren suddenly came like this, and no matter how unwilling she was, she could no longer be controlled by him. 

Wen Ying's voice was also a little low, "My queen forced him to leave the capital in the first place because he was entrenched in the capital and was afraid of bad things. But it's good that he left the capital now. He is no longer under our eyes. Now we don't care whether he is in Jiangling or not." You know, we are in the light and he is in the dark. On the other hand, when he left the capital, he seemed to be retreating in order to advance!" When 

Cao Dingzhen heard what she said, his face became even worse, "My brother's death is also a reason. What's strange is that the murderer of my brother has not been caught until now. It is obviously a well-planned plan. Now there is no brother in the outer court, and the Ai family is alone in the palace..." 

"It is really tricky now. Jiang Weiren is missing, and the so-called edict is We have nothing to do with him, but will we always be threatened by him in the future?" Wen Ying said worriedly. 

Cao Dingzhen picked up the tea cup on the table, held the tea lid and gently brushed away the foam, "The Ai family has long been worried about it. For the time being, Jiang Weiren's wish has been fulfilled. There are dragons and crouching tigers in Shangyu. Naturally, someone can eliminate the Ai family. This is a big worry..." 

Shang Yu is in a special place in the court. The courtiers only dare to discuss curiously in private. He is even more mysterious than the Jinyiwei. Gein's organization has always only taken orders from the palace, and all executions are secret. The mission involves a lot of skilled experts, who are involved in surveillance, spying and even assassination. They just want to complete the order, regardless of any means. 

Wen Ying understood what Cao Ding really meant as soon as he heard it. Now that they were in the light and Jiang Weiren was in the dark, they naturally couldn't do anything to him. But when Yan Qing is sent out, the people from Shang Yu can follow him secretly. Even if it takes three to five years, he will always find an opportunity. If those two people are removed, then there will be no need to worry about the threat of the "edict". . 

"Your Majesty is still thoughtful!" 

Cao Dingzhen said while drinking tea: "Don't worry, send the woman out of the palace first. Aren't they two hoping to fly together? By then the two of them will have no power to rely on, and then the Ai family will really have a lot of power. "The way." 

She previously claimed that Yan Qing was infected with the epidemic, and now she can create the illusion that she died of illness. She only needs to send her out of the palace in disguise, and then find a palace maid in the Suiyu Pavilion to kill her with the medicine, and wear the Queen Mother Shengyi. clothes and put them in the coffin. 

Since Yan Qing died of an epidemic, in order to prevent the spread of the disease, the coffin should be sealed immediately, and then the news would be reported to Ganlu Hall to let Zhao Yuan know. When Zi Palace moved to Shansi Hall, this drama It’s complete from beginning to end. 

"You go to Suiyuxuan today and arrange everything. Let her disguise herself tomorrow night, and Zhang Fang will send her out in person. You also go over and arrange the fake death in person. Make sure nothing goes wrong, lest His Majesty Be suspicious." Cao Dingzhen ordered carefully. 

Wen Ying was always effective, and nodded quickly: "I know that when your Majesty hears the news of Queen Mother Shengyi's death, it will be a big blow. I must make arrangements to make Your Majesty think that Queen Mother Shengyi really died of illness." 

Yan Qing Fake death, people outside don’t know the details. The most important thing is to hide it from Zhao Yuan, so as not to make him suspicious. When the time comes, he will secretly investigate and know that all this is arranged by Funing Palace. Naturally, he will doubt whether Yan Qing was killed by his mother. . 

Jiang Weiren was indeed not in Jiangling. In order to prevent Cao Dingzhen from noticing, he did not go to the city after returning to Beijing, but lived in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing. 

The timing of handing over the letter was also calculated. He was afraid that Cao Dingzhen would have a backup plan, so he naturally rushed back to Beijing to arrange it in person. 

At this moment, night had fallen, and he was standing under the window, reading the letter in his hand carefully again by the candlelight of the lampstand. 

It was sent from the palace by Zhang Fang. The letter told Cao Dingzhen's plan to use fake death to get Yan Qing out of the palace tonight. The letter also said that after Yan Qing moved to Suiyuxuan, she asked him to leave the palace tonight. Dr. Zhou has read the prescription given by the Imperial Hospital, and it should be the antidote. 

Jiang Weiren looked at it, but he couldn't feel relieved. He was just gambling. Yan Qing's poison was a chronic poison that had been accumulated over the years. Even if he wanted to cure it, he couldn't cure it with just a few prescriptions. Check whether the toxicity has been eliminated. It will take at least a year and a half to see whether the poison is really cured. 

Fortunately, he held Cao Dingzhen's weak point in his hand. A year and a half later, he could still threaten her with the edict. 

As long as tonight goes well, let Yan Qing leave the palace first. 

There was a knock on the door behind him, and it was the voice of a follower, "Sir, Commander Ji has arrived." 

"Let him in." Jiang Weiren said calmly. 

The door was pushed open, and a man in smart clothes walked in. He cupped his hands and said, "I've met Mr. Changshu!" 

Jiang Weiren stepped forward and replied warmly: "Changshu, thank you for your hard work." 

Ji Changshu, Beijing The commander of the Ya Shenwei Camp. 

The Imperial Guards of Dayu were divided into North and South Yamen. The South Yamen Imperial Guards had a larger number of people because they had to bear the responsibility of guarding the imperial palace. The predecessor of Beiya was the Yulin Guards. They practiced on Weishan Mountain on weekdays. If there was danger in the capital or the palace, they would rush to the rescue. Although the number of soldiers is not as high as that of Nan Ya, the victory is that the soldiers in each battalion are only one in a hundred, and their combat effectiveness is far superior to that of Nan Ya. 

"How many people are here this time?" Jiang Weiren asked. 

"Five hundred people were selected by me personally. Each of them is one against a hundred." 

It took at least half a day to get down from Mount Wei and rush to the capital, and then to the palace on horseback. However, during the Yingzong Dynasty, the palace was in turmoil. In order to allow the Beiya imperial guards to come to the rescue in time, Yingzong ordered people to dig a secret road from Weishan directly to Xiwaitou, which could not only shorten the time, but also cover up people's eyes and ears. 

Jiang Weiren was afraid that something would happen tonight, so he asked Ji Changshu to secretly bring people from Weishan to protect him secretly, just in case. 

"Chang Shu," Jiang Weiren's face looked a little solemn, "It would be fine if everything goes well tonight. If something goes wrong, Empress Dowager Cao will know that you are used by me, so she will naturally not tolerate you. She will end up harming you." 

Ji Changshu did not say anything. Carefully said: "I have received great kindness from Mr., and it is not an exaggeration to repay him with death. Now it does not matter. Now that I am here, I have no intention of coveting glory and wealth anymore." 

Ji Changshu is Jiang Weiren's confidant, and he also knows Regarding his plan, he couldn't help but ask at this moment: "It's just sir, I still don't know something." 

"What's the matter?" 

"Today the long book can protect the safety of sir and the empress Shengyi, but in the future when the gentleman and empress leave the capital, Sir, have you ever thought about how to resolve it if you encounter danger again?"

"I understand what you mean. I will be powerless by then. There are ministers in the palace and guards outside the palace. No place in the world is safe," Jiang Weiren said calmly, "But don't worry , I also left a line in the palace, which is enough to contain the man in the palace."

Ji Changshu was right. He and Yan Qing left at this time, not in safety, but in danger. Although the edict to kill his mother and establish a son was made up by him to deal with Cao Dingzhen, only he, Yan Qing, and Wang Ting'en knew the truth. As long as they said that the edict was true, then the fake one would also be true.

The only way to permanently eliminate the troubles in his heart is to make these three people disappear from the world. When Yan Qing leaves the palace, he guesses that Cao Dingzhen will let Shang Yuchu follow him secretly and find an opportunity to get rid of them.

But he actually prepared a letter for Cao Dingzhen. After Yan Qing left the palace safely and they left the capital, he would naturally have the letter delivered to her.

The letter will tell her that he has handed over the posthumous edict to someone in the palace. If anything happens to him and Yan Qing, that person will present the posthumous edict to the emperor Zhao Yuan. At the same time, he will also tell Zhao Yuan that Yan Qing's so-called affair His death from an epidemic was all arranged by her, Queen Mother Cao. She was afraid that she would reveal the contents of the imperial edict, so she killed her and silenced her.

If Cao Dingzhen instructs Shang Yuchu to attack them secretly, and when Zhao Yuan sees the imperial edict, no matter how he investigates, Yan Qing's fake death and the decree that Shang Yuchu followed are indeed the work of Empress Dowager Cao, and the suspicion of murder will be eliminated. It can no longer be clarified.

How could a mother allow herself to become such a cruel person in the eyes of her children?

That night, Cao Dingzhen ordered Jiang Guangyuan to personally guard Xi Nei. As soon as Yan Qing left, he would strictly guard Suiyuxuan. After the coffin was sealed and everything was taken care of, he would go to Ganlu Hall to report to Your Majesty that Queen Mother Shengyi had died of illness. news.

According to the plan, Zhang Fang was asked to personally escort Yan Qing out of the palace through the remote palace gate behind Xi Nei in Xushi. Cao Ding was really worried about others, so Wen Ying went to Sui Yuxuan in person to handle the follow-up matters.

The hourglass in the corner of the palace kept ticking. Cao Dingzhen was still ill. He had just taken the medicine and looked at the time. It was almost Xu time.

Wen Ying saw that she frequently looked at the scale on the hourglass and said, "Don't worry, my dear, my son has already disguised himself. Don't worry, in such a dark night, wearing the clothes of an ordinary palace servant will not be... Someone noticed it."

Cao Dingzhen sat for a while and suddenly stood up and said: "Wen Ying, ask someone to inform Zhang Fang and ask him to bring him to Funing Palace first!"

Wen Ying was surprised at first and looked a little confused. Asked: "Your Majesty, didn't you tell Eunuch Zhang to take her out of the palace directly from the west? There are people coming and going here. If someone recognizes her appearance..."

"Ask Zhang Fang to avoid it. " Palace servants, the Ai family will send out the people on duty in the palace later," she frowned and murmured, "The Ai family has something to ask her personally..."

Wen Ying was puzzled at first, and thought about it for a while. Only then did he understand. When he thought about what the obsession was in Cao Dingzhen's heart, he couldn't help but feel sad and felt sad. "Mother, do you still think that the late emperor did have such a will?"

Cao Dingzhen lowered his eyes and lowered his voice. Go on, "Based on the Ai family's understanding of the late emperor, if he really had the intention of killing his mother and raising a son, he would not fail to tell Yan Qing, and he would definitely entrust A Yuan to her carefully...

" If nothing else, she treated A Yuan It was indeed sincere. At that time, it was not impossible that he had concealed that decree for A Yuan.

"The Ai family moved her to Sui Yuxuan and sent Chen Min away. News from the outside could not come in. If the edict was just made up by Jiang Weiren himself, he could not communicate with Yan Qing. Naturally, she had no way of knowing. The Ai family Just ask her and you will know..."

Wen Ying sighed secretly. Those three people were the only ones who were guarding the palace before the death of the late emperor. Now it all depends on what those three people say. The truth can no longer be investigated. Clear.

Jiang Weiren's move was really powerful. The posthumous edict was not only a threat, but also a heart-breaking one.

He planted a thorn in the empress's heart. Even if she asked the Empress Dowager Shengyi, even if the Empress Dowager Shengyi said she didn't know, it would not really eliminate the doubts in the empress's heart. Wen Ying knew that this thorn would stick in her heart forever.

She knew this was just obsession, but at this moment she could only reply in a low voice: "Okay, I will ask Eunuch Zhang to bring that man."
