They were extremely loyal to the Queen Mother, and they only wanted to take orders from the Queen Mother and did not care about anything else.
"Kill them all!" the emperor said calmly.
The guards standing behind him swarmed forward and chopped down Nanny Pei and others with their swords.
The emperor wanted to reach out to cover Meng Shu's eyes, but she pushed him away.
Meng Shu glanced at the emperor speechlessly, but she was not afraid.
"I...amn't I worried about the two children?" the emperor explained: "I don't want them to see such a bloody scene before they are born. I also want to gain more blessings for the two children, because they shouldn't kill anyone, but……"
"But some people deserve to die. Your Majesty, you don't need to care about others. Our children are not so timid, nor are they so blessed." Meng Shu said calmly.
The Queen Mother, who was standing opposite them, saw that her confidant was killed by the emperor. She was furious and yelled: "Rebellion, are you going to rebel?"
"I am the emperor and have the right to decide anything. However, the Queen Mother slanders the Queen and wants to kill the Queen and my children. Her heart is to be punished."
"You dare to talk to the Ai family like this, you are unfilial!" The Queen Mother never expected that the emperor would dare to talk to her like this.
"You are not my biological mother. You secretly replaced me in the first place, which was a crime of deceiving the king. Eight years ago, you bribed a killer and put poison on the arrow. You wanted to kill me and help your biological son, King Wei. Is it not an exaggeration to punish you a thousand times for such crimes?"
After the emperor finished speaking, he gently raised his hand.
The guards standing behind him swarmed forward.
However, more than half of the five battalions of soldiers who originally escorted the Queen Mother and King Wei into the palace turned against them and restrained all the cronies of the Queen Mother and King Wei.
The mother and son were quickly captured by the guards.
Most of the guards in the palace have become emperors, and there are some who are die-hard loyal to the Queen Mother and Wei Mingtao. They were secretly imprisoned by the emperor yesterday, including Wei Mingtao and Wei Qingyun and his son. But the news has not been leaked.
The Queen Mother has been in power for many years and has always been used to it. She thought that everything was under her control. She did not realize that the emperor had already set up a trap and was waiting for her and King Wei to fall into the trap.
"Emperor, even if Aijia is not your biological mother, Aijia is still the late emperor's queen and your aunt, so what you do is still unfilial." The Queen Mother was filled with fear.
It's all her fault for being too careless.
Having been in power for many years, she has become accustomed to having everything under her control and is completely defenseless.
Even she is like this, let alone the King of Wei who was crippled by her?
King Wei suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor to plead: "Brother, I have never harmed your brother. Those things were all done by my mother. Please be noble and let me go. I know that you don't want to do anything." If you see me, the emperor can demote me to those barren places. I promise not to return to the capital in this life and will never cause any trouble to the emperor. "
At this point, King Wei finally figured it out.
His imperial brother has secretly controlled everything, and even most of the people in the Fifth Army Camp under his rule have turned against him.
His greatest reliance was, firstly, his mother, and secondly, the men and horses of the Fifth Army Camp.
The Queen Mother was unreliable, and so were the Fifth Army Camps. He had no other choice but to beg the Emperor's brother to spare his life.
The emperor sneered when he heard this, and immediately asked someone to read out the imperial edict, making public the crimes committed by the Queen Mother and King Wei over the years, and then ordered people to take them down and imprison them.
Not locked up in a palace, but in a prison.
The Queen Mother never dreamed that she would end up in such a situation.
She cursed the emperor and Meng Shu in prison, but what was waiting for her was a glass of poisonous wine sent by Wang Fusheng in accordance with the emperor's imperial decree.
"The Queen Mother, this is the Emperor's grace, please do it!" Wang Fusheng said respectfully.
Of course, by doing this, he was actually mocking the Queen Mother.
"How outrageous!" The Queen Mother fiercely knocked the wine glass in Wang Fusheng's hand to the ground and said sternly: "The Ai family is the Queen Mother. Even the emperor is not qualified to deal with the Ai family. He, an unfaithful and unfilial person, dared to poison and kill everyone." The Empress Dowager, she wants to be infamy for eternity. You go back and tell him... The Ai family... The Ai family can live in Taikang Palace for a long time in the future and never interfere with the affairs of the court. The Ai family will not leave Taikang Palace for half a step. ”
The Queen Mother's voice was a little trembling: "Or... or let the Ai family go to a nunnery to practice Buddhism, and the ancient Buddha will be in the blue for the rest of his life."
The Queen Mother has lived so smoothly these past years, so of course she is afraid of death, and especially afraid of it.
She knew that she was doomed, and she had to save her life first to have a future.
This time she was too careless. She didn't expect that the emperor and Bai Yuanze would join forces to plot and deceive her.
After suffering such a big loss, she will definitely be more cautious next time.
The Queen Mother was still thinking about the future in her heart, but she didn't know that she no longer had a future.
"Empress Dowager, do you still want to live? How have you treated the emperor these years? There is no need for your servants to remind you. Let's just talk about the time the emperor blocked an arrow for you eight years ago. The emperor has great martial arts. If it weren't for You blocked the arrows, but the assassins you arranged couldn't hurt the emperor, but how did you do it? The emperor was suffering from severe poison for these years, and he lived in pain every day. Not only did you not feel any guilt, you also looked forward to him. Go to hell early, slave, tell the truth... sending you a glass of wine to see the Lord of Hell is an advantage for you. "
After Wang Fusheng finished speaking, he waved his hand gently, and several eunuchs standing behind him quickly held down the Queen Mother.
Wang Fusheng knelt down, pinched the Queen Mother's mouth open, and poured the pot of poisonous wine into it.
"I persuade you to have a drink, but you refuse. I have no choice but to ask you to drink all the wine. This is a good wine. It can make people die with heartbroken and extremely painful..." Wang Fusheng said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Queen Mother stretched out her hand to cover her abdomen, curled up together, wailed in pain, and kept vomiting blood from her mouth.
King Wei in the cell next door was so frightened that he opened his mouth but didn't say even a single word.
"Next, it's your turn, Your Majesty." Wang Fusheng turned his head and looked at King Wei, smiling.
"No, no, no... you are not allowed to come over. It's all the fault of the queen mother and has nothing to do with this king. The emperor's brother will not kill me. The king... I am a waste and cannot pose any threat to the emperor's throne. , Brother Huang will not kill me!" After King Wei finished speaking, he rushed over and grabbed the chains of the cell, preventing Wang Fusheng and the others from unlocking it.
Wang Fusheng smiled, then took the long knife from the guard's waist and slashed it. King Wei was caught off guard and one of his fingers was chopped off, causing him to scream in pain.
Wang Fusheng kicked open the door of the prison, rushed in with his men, and held down King Wei.
"Someone spent two thousand taels of silver to buy something from the slave. It belongs to you, the prince. It will cause you some pain, but... the slave's technique is good and it's very fast. It shouldn't be too painful. "Wang Fusheng dragged the knife and slowly approached King Wei, and the long knife stopped between King Wei's legs.
