The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne
Chapter 206: Imitation Strategy
Kyoto City
The night was silent and the moon was bright in the sky above the Bo Mansion. The huge mansion seemed a little empty, and how could Old Mrs. Bo still feel sleepy?
There were faint sounds of footsteps on the roof.
Old Mrs. Bo was stunned, thinking she had heard it wrong.
The next moment the window was opened and a slender figure sneaked in.
Looking at the person who came, Old Mrs. Bo was stunned. She had seen the deposed Zhao Zhen once a few days ago. He looked frivolous, arrogant and disdainful, and did not even take her seriously.
But the person in front of me looks exactly like Zhao Zhen.
But his temperament was completely different, low-key and introverted, his every move was dignified and elegant, and when he raised his head again, the ruthlessness in his eyes was like an unfathomable cold pond, which was frightening.
"You...Yan'er." Old Mrs. Bo burst into tears and stumbled forward, trying to help the person who came.
But Bu Yan gave way.
Mrs. Bo's hand just fell into the air, awkwardly raised in the air, tears welling up in her eyes: "Yan'er, it's too dangerous for you to be here, go back quickly."
Bu Yan bent down and sat down: "The Bo family has fallen to such a state, have you ever thought about turning things around?"
Old Mrs. Bo's eyes moved slightly, and she sat back on a chair beside her, lowering her voice: "I am already half buried in the earth, and I have long since stopped pursuing these material possessions."
Bu Yan took out a jade pendant and placed it on the table. Old Mrs. Bo recognized that this jade pendant was the one she gave to Bo Yuanchuan before she left.
"You...when will the cycle of revenge end? He is already seriously injured like that, living a life worse than death. Why do you have to be so aggressive?" Old Mrs. Bo said in a hoarse voice, tears streaming down her face, looking remorseful.
Unfortunately, Bu Yan's expression didn't change from beginning to end, he just stared at the other person.
Under the sharp gaze, Old Mrs. Bo was quickly defeated.
"What do you want?"
"Let me see the Queen Mother."
Old Madam Bo frowned and said, "This is impossible. I am just an old woman who has lost her power. I can only wait to be summoned. I have no right to see the Queen Mother at all."
Bu Yan stood up slowly: "Then find a way to tell the Queen Mother that the lives of the Cheng family's eldest master, second master, and three legitimate grandsons all depend on the Queen Mother overnight."
These words shocked Mrs. Bo so much that she couldn't sit still anymore. She widened her eyes in shock and said, "You, what nonsense are you talking about? How dare you kidnap the Cheng family."
That’s the Queen Mother’s maternal family.
If the Queen Mother knew this, she would definitely be furious.
"I want to see the Queen Mother in two days." Bu Yan said, then he jumped and disappeared out of the dark window.
Old Mrs. Bo sat on the chair in a daze, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
The next day
Sure enough, I heard the news that the Cheng family was missing.
When the Queen Mother learned of this, she was furious. As soon as the Northern Qi Emperor left the court, she asked someone to invite the Emperor over and said, "Emperor, your two uncles are old and can't stand being tormented. Also, who is so bold as to kidnap the Emperor's uncle?"
This was a slap in the face of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.
The Northern Qi Emperor frowned and said soothingly, "Mother, I will investigate this thoroughly."
The Queen Mother suddenly remembered something and asked, "Is this matter related to that evil spirit? Or is it closely related to the Xu family!"
Just a few days ago, Xu Minghuang suggested that the Xu family members be relocated to the capital and provided a list of officials. Then the Cheng family was retaliated against.
How could the Queen Mother not panic?
The Cheng family raised her for more than ten years, and took great pains to help her become the queen and support her son to ascend the throne as emperor.
Even if she died, she would never be able to repay these favors.
The Emperor of Northern Qi was silent.
The young eunuch came hurriedly, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, the Sixth Young Master has been found."
The Sixth Young Master is the youngest grandson of the Cheng family. He is only five years old this year, at the age when he is lively and lovely. After he was abducted, Madam Cheng fainted on the spot.
"How is the person?" asked the Queen Mother anxiously.
"In reply to the Queen Mother, the Sixth Young Master is fine."
The Queen Mother was relieved to hear that the person was fine, and the Emperor of Northern Qi asked again: "Where did you find the person?"
"Your Majesty, it's at the gate of Xu's mansion."
The Queen Mother was furious when she heard this: "It is indeed related to the Xu family. Your Majesty, the Xu family is too arrogant. They dare to threaten you in broad daylight. It is simply too presumptuous."
The Northern Qi Emperor narrowed his eyes and said, "Mother, I will order the city gates to be sealed and the suspicious person to be tracked down immediately. This person must still be in the city."
"Go quickly." The Queen Mother urged.
In the morning, the Cheng family went to the palace to beg the Queen Mother. The two ladies burst into tears, especially Mrs. Cheng, who was crying and snotting: "Queen Mother, the master is old and his legs are not good. He was sick a while ago and finally recovered. How could he be kidnapped?"
Both the old and the young were abducted. How could the Cheng family accept this?
The Queen Mother rubbed her brows and felt even more resentful towards Xu Minghuang. It was all her fault for coming up with such a bad idea!
"The Emperor is already conducting a thorough investigation. He will do everything he can to rescue my brother and his grandchildren."
As soon as she finished speaking, the young eunuch came hurriedly to report the situation. The empress dowager's eyelids twitched. Even though she had been prepared, she was still so angry that her vision went dark.
Half of the Cheng family’s ancestral tomb was blown up!
The empress dowager held on to the handle tightly and managed to keep herself steady. In a fit of rage, she slammed the tea table, causing a loud noise.
"Go and get the queen!"
The Cheng family didn't dare cry anymore.
The Queen Mother glanced at the few people and said patiently, "Go to the side hall and wait first."
This attitude is really shameful.
The Cheng family members helped each other up and followed the palace maid to the side hall.
"The Empress Dowager summoned me?" Xu Minghuang frowned. Didn't the Empress Dowager say that she didn't need to pay her respects?
The maid said, "I heard that it was related to the Cheng family. Yesterday, the eldest master, the second master, and three legitimate grandsons of the Cheng family were abducted. This morning, the sixth young master was found at the gate of the Xu family and sent back to the Cheng family. Just now, several ladies of the Cheng family entered the palace to ask to see the Queen Mother."
Xu Minghuang's eyelids jumped, and she said angrily, "You are imitating me, not leaving me any way out."
"My queen, what should we do now? I heard that the queen mother is very angry."
It would be strange if I wasn't angry.
The Queen Mother has always valued the Cheng family.
Xu Minghuang pursed her lips. She knew she couldn't avoid the empress dowager's summons, so she had to straighten her skirt and get up to meet the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother's rage was greater than she had imagined.
boom!
A teacup came crashing down and landed at her feet.
Caught off guard, Xu Minghuang stepped back in fear, her face pale, and she looked at the Queen Mother helplessly: "Queen Mother."
"It was all your bad idea. Now Xu Feng is taking revenge on the Cheng family." The Queen Mother regretted that she should not have listened to Xu Minghuang.
"Tell me, are you two brothers working together to deceive me and the emperor?"
Xu Minghuang avoided the debris on the ground and came to the Queen Mother. She knelt on the ground with her knees weak. "Queen Mother, I am innocent. I didn't expect my brother to be so foolish as to do such a treasonous thing for the traitor."
Watching Xu Minghuang making excuses for himself.
The Queen Mother was even more furious: "If one life of the Cheng family dies, I will ask your Xu family to pay ten lives as compensation!"
"Empress Dowager..." Xu Minghuang tried hard to suppress her inner displeasure. She had already advised the Emperor of Northern Qi and the Empress Dowager to make arrangements as soon as possible. Bu Yan and Lu Jingning would definitely not be able to escape from Northern Qi.
Now that I have been retaliated against, it is too late to say anything.
At this time, a letter was handed to the Queen Mother. When she opened it, her expression changed slightly.
Xu Minghuang's heart was beating like thunder, fearing that something might happen again, and asked cautiously: "Queen Mother, have the Cheng family members been found?"
