From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 766

The throne is a wonderful thing. Even a smart and wise elder sister would fall into the devil if she sat in this position for a long time.

Fortunately, she had a good ability to adjust herself. She quickly found herself and regained her composure. She left Ziwei Palace and started to work.

Zhou Yuan lay comfortably on the bed, thinking about how the elder sister would act. For a while, he couldn't sleep.

At this moment, a huge monster quietly descended into the room. It was the big and strong Xiaozhuang.

Thinking of the last words of the senior sister, Zhou Yuan's face suddenly changed, and he said in shock: "Xiao Zhuang, you...don't do it! Monks can't do such things!"

Xiao Zhuang was stunned for a moment, then picked up a bench and said: "Try to play tricks on me again!"

Zhou Yuan said seriously: "Master Xiao Zhuang, I have always admired you. Just tell me what you are doing here!"

Xiao Zhuang said: "I came to ask you, how did you offend the emperor? At this time, she usually reviews memorials in Ziwei Palace instead of going to the imperial study."

Zhou Yuan waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about her. She wants to make a final struggle, and I will give her this opportunity."

Xiao Zhuang frowned "She has helped you a lot along the way, don't you know how to give in to her?"

"Zhou Yuan, don't be too greedy. Now His Majesty is in love with you, and even Miss Caixi wants to marry you. Isn't that enough?"

Zhou Yuan looked at her in confusion and said in shock: "Xiao Zhuang, you have been with His Majesty for so many years. Don't you know who Guan Caixi is?"

"She didn't like me very much before, and she had some complaints about my romantic character. You don't think that she went to the southwest and turned the world upside down and wanted to kneel down and lick my ass?"

Xiao Zhuang glared and said: "Isn't it? She even rushed to marry you."

Zhou Yuan spread his hands and said, "Master Xiaozhuang, you can't think about the problem so simply. After the southwest, her attitude towards me has changed, but it is far from the extent of rushing to marry her like today."

"This is obviously the trick of the eldest sister. She wants the sisters to unite and use my lustful advantage to win my heart."

"Otherwise, why would I scold the eldest sister? Because she is confused. In order to keep the throne and for the suspicion in her heart, she dragged her own sister into dealing with me."

Speaking of this, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but nod and said, "But it really worked. The temptation of the sister almost made me fall."

Xiaozhuang was silent for a moment before saying, "Your Majesty instigated ? I don't think so. "

Zhou Yuan said: "Tell me what kind of personality the elder sister has."

Xiao Zhuang thought for a while and said: "Strong, rational, full of resilience, never admit defeat, and can bear everything for the overall situation."

Zhou Yuan said: "So facing a powerful official like me, she has never admitted defeat. Even if she already knows that she has no chance of winning, she still wants to defeat me from other aspects. It is reasonable for her to use the trick of sisterly unity."

Speaking of this, Zhou Yuan said in fear: "Fortunately, she thought of the official sisters, not the Zhuang sisters."

Xiao Zhuang was stunned, and then took off his black sword.

She said slowly: "It seems that your martial arts have improved a lot during the trip to the southwest, and you have begun to dare to tease me."

Zhou Yuan stepped back a few steps and said seriously: "Xiao Zhuang, don't be impulsive. I am a master now. When I was in Sichuan, the old monk Bayan came to find me, and he died tragically under my knife!"

"Ah! Wrong, wrong, wrong, I was wrong!"

"Xiao Zhuang, spare me! Ah! Be gentle! I can't stand it! My pelvis is going to break!"

...

It was afternoon, and Zhuang Xuansu led dozens of internal guards and the commander of the imperial guards led dozens of imperial guards, riding horses towards the outside of the city.

They arrived at the camp as quickly as possible, showed their gold medals, and shouted: "Make way! His Majesty's imperial decree! Call the commander-in-chief of the 12th Regiment!"

Zhuang Xuansu took out the imperial decree and held it high in his hand. The guards knelt one after another and then made way.

The commander-in-chief of the 12th Regiment rushed over as quickly as possible, knelt on the ground, and prepared to receive the decree.

Zhuang Xuansu looked at them, and then said in a deep voice: "Zhou Yuan, the Duke of Weiguo of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Grand Marshal of the Army, and the Jiedushi of the Beijing Camp, was assassinated by Bayan Luohan, a high monk of the Snow Mountain Temple in the Western Regions, when he was suppressing the Tusi in Sichuan. Unfortunately, he died."

When these words came out, everyone's face changed.

Shi Yi, Song Wu, Guan Dayong and others stood up directly, shocked and angry.

Zhuang Xuansu said: "The Duke of Weiguo is the backbone of the country. Now he was killed. The various departments of U-Tsang cannot escape the blame. The former Grand Commander of the Three Thousand Camps, Song Wu, was promoted to the Grand Marshal of the Western Expedition, and led all twelve regiments of the Beijing Camp to go to the various departments of U-Tsang to suppress the Tusi, ask for their guilt, and kill the culprit."

Song Wu's hands were shaking, and he gritted his teeth tightly. He took the imperial edict and said loudly: "Your humble servant!Obey the order!"

Zhuang Xuansu said: "Song Wu, you are a soldier led by the Duke of Weiguo, and this is your first time to lead an expedition. Don't let His Majesty down!"

Song Wu shouted: "I will never disgrace your order!"

Zhuang Xuansu nodded slowly, and then left quickly with dozens of riders.

After leaving the camp, she immediately ordered: "Quick! The ten of you rush to Jizhou at the fastest speed, ask Pang Lixing, the governor of Jizhou, to lead all the forces of Jizhou to Shenjing."

"As long as the five military camps leave, the Jizhou army arrives, and occupies Shenjing, the overall situation will be completely settled."

After giving the order, she hurried back to the imperial study.

Empress Zhaojing hurriedly said: "How is it? Did Song Wu receive the order!"

Zhuang Xuansu said: "Your Majesty, Song Wu has received the order."

"Great! ”

Empress Zhao Jing said: "As long as the Five Army Camps leave and the Jizhou Army arrives, I will have a firm foothold in Shenjing. According to my junior brother's temper, he will not break the jar and go to other places to secede."

"I finally won this bet!"

At the end, she couldn't help laughing and said: "Look! Sending Cai Xi to praise him, his heart is really floating, otherwise how can I fight for this precious bet opportunity."

Zhuang Xuansu could only whisper: "Your Majesty is wise."

"Let's go! Go to Ziwei Palace and see my junior brother!"

"I just want to see his surprised expression, haha, he must not think that I will use this trick, after all... How can the dead be loyal? No matter how loyal the Five Army Camps are to him, the premise is that he is alive!"

Zhuang Xuansu couldn't help saying: "Your Majesty... You... You... When Zhou Yuan was in Sichuan, you could also do this, and you could still take back Shenjing!"

"What do you know! ”

Empress Zhao Jing said: "What I did at that time was equivalent to stabbing Junior Brother in the back. He would definitely turn against me."

"If he turns against me, he will just go to Yuehai directly and completely disobey my orders. Then what's the point of me occupying Shenjing? I can still make a fuss about Jianjia and the others!"

"But this time is different. This time it is a fair bet. If the Fifth Army Camp really leaves and the Jizhou Army really arrives, Junior Brother will lose and he will be obedient. "

Zhuang Xuansu thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out the logic.

In fact, no outsider could figure out the entanglement between Zhou Yuan and Empress Zhaojing. The conflict between the two of them was caused by the deep interweaving of emotions and power.

When he came to Ziwei Palace, Zhuang Xuansu pushed open the door, his eyes widened, and he covered his mouth.

Empress Zhaojing looked inside and her face suddenly changed. She was dumbfounded.

Xiaozhuang was sitting...

sitting on a chair, stepping on Zhou Yuan's waist with his right foot, drinking tea quietly.

And Zhou Yuan lay on the ground like a dead dog, wailing: "Big sister, help me, you finally came, my waist is about to break, my pelvis is cracked!"

Empress Zhaojing couldn't help but say: "Xiaozhuang...what's going on?"

Xiaozhuang said: "Oh, it's okay. My feet are a little uncomfortable recently, and Duke Weiguo kindly used his body to cushion me. "

Empress Zhaojing said: "He is really great. "

Zhuang Xuansu said: "Sister, let him go quickly, he is dying."

Xiaozhuang frowned, looked at his sister deeply, and then let go of his foot.
