"Don't worry, I'm not trying to trick you."
As Empress Dowager Bai spoke, she slowly took out an exquisite long box from the bed and handed it to Yang Zhao.
"Open it and take a look."
Although Yang Zhao was confused in his heart.
But he still took it obediently and opened the box. However, what caught his eye was the bright yellow scroll, and he could vaguely see that the bright yellow brocade on the scroll was embroidered with... a dragon.
This is an imperial decree!!
Even though Yang Zhao was deeply dissatisfied with the imperial court, he quickly grasped the box with both hands, stood up, and was about to kneel down: "My Emperor..."
"Sit down."
Empress Dowager Bai grabbed Yang Zhao again.
"No one else is here, so don't bother with those nonsense things."
"Pick up what's inside and have a look." Empress Dowager Bai pointed to the imperial edict in the box with her chin.
If Yang Zhao said that he was not upset, that would be a lie.
What was inside was obviously an imperial edict.
"Why, are you scared already?"
Seeing Yang Zhao didn't move, Empress Dowager Bai looked at her with amusement and said, "If you don't dare to do this, how do you plan to go on in the future? How are you going to protect the Yang family?"
Yang Zhao glanced at Empress Dowager Bai.
Finally, she took out the imperial edict from the box, unfolded it, and soon she looked surprised.
This imperial decree—
"You see, the late emperor left a will long ago."
"If the successor to the throne is incompetent, I can use this edict."
It was clearly written in the imperial edict.
King Yi can succeed to the throne.
Under such circumstances, how could Emperor Wenyuan still keep this younger brother?
"Instead of letting those insignificant people take that position, it's better to let someone with ability take it. Although A'ran was sent to the Imperial Temple since he was young, the late emperor not only left him this edict, but also left him a Black Armor Army. You must have heard of the Black Armor Army, right?"
"So it's actually very simple for him to want that position."
"You also heard what Abbot Wuji said today. Ah Ran is destined to be with only one woman in this life. This means that he may not have another wife in the future."
"My child, you are in business, so you should know clearly how to calculate the pros and cons. So, if you marry A'ran, you will definitely make money..."
Looking at Empress Dowager Bai who spoke in one breath.
Yang Zhao felt that some of her cognitions in her mind had been overturned. This Queen Mother... actually persuaded her to marry Prince Yi, and then conspire to usurp the throne of her own son?
Is there something wrong with your brain?
Or is it all calculated?
Do you want her to rebel openly so that you can wipe out the Yang family completely?
But……
When Yang Zhao left the palace with the will, she was completely confused.
The empress dowager actually handed the late emperor's will to her!
"What is that?"
In the carriage.
When Wei saw the box in Yang Zhao's hand, she couldn't help but ask a question.
Yang Zhao glanced at her and sat back in his seat: "Uncle Chen, go back."
Wei curled his lips.
"Who cares? It's just a small toy as a reward. Why are you so proud? Do you really think you can marry the King of Wings..." Wei murmured in a very low voice.
Obviously, he didn't dare to shout loudly to anger Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhao ignored her and gently stroked the patterns on the box in his hand with his fingers, but his mind was busy thinking, trying to guess the Queen Mother's purpose.
Is this edict here?
Many of them may not be true.
For a moment, she really couldn't guess what Empress Dowager Bai was thinking.
…
"Your Majesty, the man has left."
"It is said that the Queen Mother kept her and talked to her privately for a while, and then rewarded her with a scroll... of the Guanyin Delivering Child, and told her to hang it up when Duke Yang of Qi returned." Eunuch Li reported the developments in the Cining Palace in a low voice.
"Guanyin, the Goddess of Childbirth?"
After hearing this, Emperor Wenyuan's face darkened slightly.
At this time, a young eunuch came in and announced, "Your Majesty, Abbot Wuji wishes to see you."
"Let him in."
soon.
Then Abbot Wuji, dressed in a cassock, came into the hall and saluted with his hands clasped together.
"Abbot, there's no need for formalities. Please take a seat."
Emperor Wenyuan still had some respect for Abbot Wuji, so he had someone give him a seat.
"Your Majesty, I am here because of Junior Brother Wangchen."
Emperor Wenyuan had originally wanted to ask about Mo Junran, but after hearing what Abbot Wuji had said, he said, "I also have a question for you, Abbot. Was the Empress Dowager's earlier collision caused by that woman?"
The person he was talking about was Yang Zhao.
Such a spectacular sight indeed shocked Emperor Wenyuan, but not long after A'ran walked to Yang Zhao's side, the empress dowager suddenly vomited blood. The imperial physician said that the empress dowager's condition was a sudden surge of qi and blood, not a real disease.
It means that blood suddenly spurted out.
Isn’t this weird!
It felt like I was hit by something.
Abbot Wuji clasped his hands together, chanted a Buddhist name, and then said, "Your Majesty, this is exactly what I want to say."
"At that time, there was indeed an evil spirit that offended the Queen Mother."
Emperor Wenyuan's face darkened slightly: "Is it really her?"
"Your Majesty, the evil spirit did not come from that woman, but..." Abbot Wuji sighed, chanted a Buddhist mantra, and then said leisurely: "It came from Junior Brother Wangchen."
"What?"
"Junior Brother Wangchen is a military killer, destined to be alone, and he also carries a lot of murderous aura. Unless he meets someone destined to transform him, he can only join the Buddhist sect, or live in obscurity. Otherwise, he will be surrounded by evil aura and be alone for the rest of his life."
Having said this, he paused.
