Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1136

The Queen Mother's face was burning.

Emperor Mingde still doesn't believe her! It seems that there will be a battle in the end!

Emperor Mingde shouted in a hoarse voice, "Youen! Youen!"

Eunuch Qi hurried into the palace and said, "Your Majesty, this old servant is here."

"Send the Empress Dowager out. I'm tired." Emperor Mingde said weakly and closed his eyes again.

Eunuch Qi was terribly frightened when he saw the deathly look on his master's face. He was fine before, how could he suddenly be poisoned?

The Empress Dowager slowly stood up from the sedan chair, "Since the Emperor insists on having his own way, I will purge his entourage."

She was wearing a heavy dress and walked towards the palace door step by step.

The hard edges of the dress scraped against her injured and festering legs, but she felt no pain at all. Instead, she felt a faint excitement in her heart.

She opened the palace door herself and shouted sternly, "Dongyu Guards, protect the emperor and do not allow any suspect to leave this palace."

Lou Yuxiao, the chief of the Eastern Feather Guard, stepped forward and knelt before the Empress Dowager, "Eastern Feather Guard obeys your order!"

Lou Yuxiao is the man in black whom the Queen Mother has always relied on, and is also the "Jiang Zhe" mentioned by Booth.

Several generations of the Lou family have been the commanders of the Imperial Guards. It can be said that one-third of the security of the imperial city is due to the Lou family.

But Lou Yuxiao is a bastard's son. Although he has not been abused or oppressed by the Lou family since he was a child, his resources are always inferior to those of his legitimate brothers.

His mother was a maid brought as a dowry by the mistress from her own family. She was made a concubine by the mistress. A few years after giving birth to Lou Yuxiao, she fell into the water and died while releasing river lanterns on the Lantern Festival.

He always believed that his mother died at the hands of the mistress, but he had no evidence.

Lou Yuxiao only knew that on the day his mother died, his father and mistress looked very unhappy, and the housekeeper who had worked in the Lou family for decades also disappeared.

He didn't believe there was something fishy going on.

Lou Yuxiao did not rely on the Lou family, but he still worked hard to make a good future. He secretly took refuge with the Queen Mother and gained many benefits and advantages from her over the years.

Moreover, he was very skilled in martial arts, and the Empress Dowager relied on him very much, and entrusted the most secret matters to him.

Lou Yuxiao was even more favored by the Empress Dowager than the Li family. As long as the great event was accomplished, the Empress Dowager promised him that he would be made the Grand Marshal of the Imperial City and command the Imperial Guards.

By then, Lou Yuxiao must put all the brothers of the Lou family in jail to pry open the mouths of his father and stepmother. He must find out the real cause of his biological mother's death.

He had already placed people in the Imperial Guards under the command of his uncles, uncles, and brothers, and they were always on standby.

The Queen Mother asked in a low voice, "Have all the imperial guards been arranged in various places?"

Lou Yuxiao nodded, "Don't worry, Queen Mother. The entire imperial city is now under our control."

"Don't be careless." The Queen Mother raised her head and her eyes met Shi Anxia's.

Both sides felt the surging undercurrents and the crashing waves against the shore.

The Empress Dowager lowered her dark brows and said, "Princess Haiyan and her husband poisoned the emperor. The evidence is irrefutable. They will be taken to the prison for custody first."

The Dongyu Guards led by Lou Yuxiao immediately stepped forward and surrounded the two.

Cen Yuan smiled faintly, "Dong Yuwei!"

Lou Yuxiao thought someone was calling him and his heart skipped a beat.

Unexpectedly, another group of people came in from outside the door. They were the Dongyu Guards led by Ma Chuyi.

He shouted loudly, "I am late in protecting you, Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
