    Hearing Queen Yuan's words, both Chen Wang and Yuan Guang didn't understand why.

    "What does the queen mother mean?" Because of the slap just now, Wang Chen's wine has sobered up, and his tone of speech has also restrained, "Could it be that there is still a chance now?"

    Empress Yuan looked at him: "Do you think we are the only ones who are anxious now? In this world, besides you and King Guangling, who else wants to be emperor?"

    Wang Chen suddenly understood.

    Yuan Guang frowned: "The Queen's intention is to join hands with the Zhou family?"

    "Who said we want to join hands with them." Queen Yuan said slowly, "Let them be used by us. Your Majesty Zhou is not as talkative as she appears on the surface. I guess she is already thinking about how to attack King Guangling."

    "Oh?" Chen Wang suddenly became interested, "The queen mother is sure she will do this?"

    "We first teamed up to bring down the Teng family, and we fought for many years. It was good and bad, and it was bad." Empress Yuan sneered, "I know how many pearls she has in her heart. The mother and son are more right on the surface.  Whoever is kind is more aggressive, you just watch, before the city is broken, both King Guangling and King Liang will die."

    Yuan Guang looked at her: "And then?"

    "Then?" Empress Yuan stroked the rim of the wine glass slowly, "Whoever is left, he and the Holy Majesty can be buried together."

    Both Chen Wang and Yuan Guang were astonished when they heard these words.

    "The queen mother wants to kill the king?" Chen Wang was the first to speak.

    "You didn't do the king-killing thing last year, it's very strange." Empress Yuan said lightly.

    The corner of Chen Wang's lips twitched.

    She was referring to the assassination of Xiao Huan last year.  Those dead soldiers were originally prepared for the emperor, but the emperor changed the arrangement temporarily, so he simply asked the assassins to attack Xiao Huan.

    "It's easy to say." Yuan Guang said immediately, "In the past, when I was close to the Holy Majesty and King Guangling, I couldn't assassinate them. Now that there are hundreds of thousands of troops around them, can it be possible?"

    "That's because you are incompetent." Empress Yuan sneered, "Who said assassinations must be done by assassins? Don't you think that all the ministers around the Holy Majesty are loyal to him?"

    Yuan Guang suddenly understood, his eyes lit up.

    "It turns out that the empress stayed in ambush among those people." He said, and finally there was some surprise on his face.

    "The situation forced me to do it as a last resort." The queen said, "Those fools in the capital know that they are going to seek a way out from the Eldest Princess, how can we let others kill us?"

    Yuan Guang thought for a while, but said: "A few spies alone may not be enough."

    "Naturally, we have to make other preparations." She looked at Yuan Guang, "Aren't those dead soldiers under your command known as the best in the world? No matter how good they are, they are nothing but ants in front of hundreds of thousands of troops.  Go to the available place. This time, send them all out, and don't be stingy with any of them."

    Yuan Guang saluted with a smile: "I obey."

    Ever since Xiao Huan left, what Yu Yan cares most about every day is whether there is an envoy from Xiao Huan in the palace.

    The Julu Palace is not far from Gyeonggi, and the fast horses that deliver the letter can arrive in a day and a night.

    Yu Yan was looking forward to it every day, and sure enough, on the fourth day after Xiao Huan left, she got the news that he had invaded Gyeonggi.

    Although the capital has not yet been breached, it is enough to make everyone in the palace rejoice.

    "The next step is to break the city?" Yu Yan asked Wang Xi, "How long is it expected to take?"

    "I don't know." Wang Xidao, "However, Zizhao never does anything he is not sure of. He said that he can solve everything within ten days, so he will most likely not break his promise."

    Yu Yan nodded.

    In fact, she cared more about his safety than he would keep his word.

    Whenever he goes out to fight, Yu Yan's heart can't help but hang high.  After all, he is a weak chicken who thinks he is strong. When he goes out to worship his ancestors and hunt, he will encounter assassins, and one of them almost died.

    Who knows if he is being watched by someone now?

    Seeing that there was not much joy on Yu Yan's face, Wang Xi hit the nail on the head: "Aren't you worried about his safety again?"

    Yu Yan didn't answer, but looked at him: "How long will your drone last once fully charged?"

    *

    King Liang also has a share of the good news ahead.

    He led a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and made a feint attack in the southeast of Gyeonggi, attracting the attention of the defenders.  And Xiao Huan, with the help of Gao Hui, broke through its weakness from another direction.At the point, the defenders were divided and wiped out, and then they drove straight in, and Chen Bing fell under the city.

    Xiao Huan's men are also very good at attacking the city. It stands to reason that they can break the city within a few days.

    But in the capital, after all, there are imperial palaces and soft objects everywhere, which are not easy to destroy.  Under the emperor's order, Xiao Huan had no choice but to give up the strong attack and think of other methods.

    And the Yuan family obviously understood the scruples here, and uttered nonsense in the city, saying that the emperor on Xiao Huan's side was a fake, and the real emperor was in their hands.  Xiao Huan falsely preached the imperial decree to deceive the emperor, and it is not too much to delay a hundred times.  In addition, they also issued a warning to the army outside the city, saying that the day the city is broken, the imperial palace and various government offices will be turned into ashes.

    As a result, the war temporarily stalemate.

    In early spring, the wind has warmed up recently, and the garden in the palace already has blooming flowers.

    "This is something new that I bring to the imperial concubine." Zhou Yue presented a box of things with a respectful expression.

    He is Zhou Guiren's cousin, this time for the reason of visiting relatives, he brought several people to the palace to meet Zhou Guiren.

    Guiren Zhou asked the servant to open the box, only to see that it was full of shining gold.

    "Cousin is really polite, just come to visit, how can you accept these yellow and white things for nothing." She smiled.

    Seeing that she said this, but she didn't mean to refuse, Zhou Yue felt relieved.

    "A little money is for the villagers to respect the nobles." Zhou Yue said with a smile, "Don't dislike the nobles."

    As he spoke, a group of country gentry beside him echoed.

    Zhou Guiren looked at them and smiled.

    "I don't get paid for nothing." She said, "What's the matter with you, but it doesn't matter."

    Hearing this, Zhou Yue said: "I'm here because I want to ask you about something. I heard that the King of Guangling in Shuofang bought the land from many big landlords at a low price and distributed it to the people for cultivation. Is there such a thing?"  ?¡±

    Guiren Zhou nodded: "It is true."

    The expressions of the tyrants changed, and then they started talking in low voices.

    "This is where King Guangling is evil." Zhou Yue was heartbroken, "If he moves Shuofang's tricks to the Central Plains, wouldn't we, the scholars, also be reduced to a landless situation?"

    Zhou Guiren smiled when he heard this.

    "If you inquire about King Guangling, you are in the wrong place." She said, "My concubine is a concubine who has lived in the deep palace for a long time and dare not intervene in political affairs. Please forgive me."

    After finishing speaking, she asked the servant to return the box of gold, and ordered: "See off."

    Seeing Zhou Guiren like this, the tyrants all showed panic on their faces.

    "Your Excellency, please stay!" At this time, a person came out, knelt down and bowed, "King Guangling has no way! I want to spend all my money to help His Royal Highness King Liang succeed to the throne!"

    It's time for the ending. Goose needs to take a few days off to sort out the ending, and will continue to update it next Monday (15th).  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
