The puppet emperor and the queen mother have all the power in the government and the public, calling

Great Zhou Dynasty, Cining Palace.

In a quiet and deep courtyard, the Queen Mother and Right Prime Minister Liu Wu sat looking at each other, drinking tea and talking.

"Now the position of commander of the city defense camp is vacant"

"The emperor will definitely try his best to control the military power of the city defense camp"

"Queen Mother, you should make plans early."

Liu Wu sipped the tea lightly at the corner of his mouth, put down the teacup in his hand, and whispered

"Right Prime Minister, don't worry"

"I already had a suitable candidate in mind for the position of commanding the city defense camp and planned to let Lu Tao take the position."

The Queen Mother's red lips opened slightly, and a deep smile appeared on her charming face.

As soon as these words came out,

Liu Wu's face was full of confusion, his eyes were surprised, and he asked, puzzled:

"Lu Tao is an upright person and loyal to the Zhou Dynasty. In all likelihood, he will join the new emperor."

"Queen Mother, by letting Lu Tao serve as the commander of the city defense camp, aren't you feeding a tiger into trouble?"

If Lu Tao is allowed to serve as the commander of the city defense camp and

Lu Tao surrenders to the new emperor, it will be very bad for them.

The city defense camp has hundreds of thousands of soldiers to defend the imperial city.

Whoever controls the military power of the city defense camp can He controls the imperial city.

Therefore, the military power of the city defense camp must not fall into the hands of the emperor.

"hehe!"

"In the future, there will naturally be a way to make Lu Tao surrender obediently. Otherwise, Lu Tao would not be allowed to serve as the commander of the city defense camp."

The Queen Mother had a smile on her face, as if she had seen through Liu Wu's inner doubts, and told her plan without hiding anything. When

Liu Wu heard this, his face suddenly became enlightened, and he immediately understood something.

It turned out that the Queen Mother had planned to kidnap Lu Tao's daughter and threaten Lu Tao Allegiance.

Although such methods are a bit shameful, as long as we can control the power of the city defense camp in our hands, everything is worth it.

"Queen Mother, is there any news recently with the Emperor?"

At this moment, the right minister Liu Wu suddenly thought of something in his heart and mentioned it casually.

After the Ninth Prince Gu Changsheng recently ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he was decisive and ruthless.

Jinyiwei!

The origin of the mysterious peak powerful man.

They still have it to this day. They haven't found out clearly.

All kinds of things show that the new emperor Gu Changsheng is very scheming and not that simple.

But at this time, they must always be aware of the emperor's every move.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister"

"In this palace, from the imperial guards to the eunuchs and maids, they are all my people."

"If there is any trouble with the new emperor, it cannot be hidden from the eyes of this empress."

The Queen Mother looked lazy, noble and graceful, and said in a cold voice.

In her opinion, although Gu Changsheng has a royal guard in his hands and is protected by a mysterious and powerful person, his background is still shallow after all.

He wants to fight her.

Gu Changsheng He is not qualified yet.

However, at this moment, a middle-aged general wearing black armor and an anxious look came to the Queen Mother and shouted:

"Queen Mother, that's not good!"

"snort!"

"How can you behave in such a panic? Is the sky falling?"

The Queen Mother's face was warm and angry, and she couldn't help but snorted coldly. She narrowed her eyes slightly, glanced at the middle-aged general, and said coldly.

At this time, the right minister Liu Wu also recognized the identity of the person.

The middle-aged general was Xu Hao, the commander of the Royal Palace Guards, was a confidant of the Queen Mother.

Xu Hao appeared here in a panic.

Could it be that something happened in the palace?

Thinking of this,

Liu Wu frowned slightly, with a bad feeling in his heart, and looked at Xu Hao. Hao couldn't help but ask:

"Commander Xu, something big happened in the palace? Hearing this

, Xu Hao nodded quickly and said solemnly:

"Report to the Queen Mother, Right Prime Minister"

"Today, a mysterious army suddenly appeared in the palace. According to His Majesty's order, they replaced the imperial guards and guarded the palace."

"Now the imperial guards in the hands of the late general have completely lost control of the palace."

The words fell.

The Queen Mother frowned slightly, with an ugly face and cold eyes. She glanced at Xu Hao and scolded:

"Waste!"

"The Imperial Guards were the most elite soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty."

"As the commander of the imperial guards, you, Xu Hao, don't know how to resist, allowing the new emperor to control the palace defense so smoothly."

The Imperial Guards control the palace defense, and their position is extremely important.

With the Imperial Guards in her hands, she has considerable control over the palace.

All the civil and military officials in the dynasty are extremely afraid of her.

But now, the Imperial Guards are in the hands of Gu Changsheng The mysterious army replaced her.

She lost control of the palace.

This incident simply made the Queen Mother furious. She vented her inner anger for a while before her face gradually calmed down.

"Queen Mother, the mysterious army that appeared in the palace is small in number, but everyone is a prince, and the leader's strength is even higher than that of a general."

"The last general also led the imperial guards to resist, but they were no match for him and suffered a big loss."

"Therefore, he came here specifically to report to the Queen Mother."

Xu Hao's face was full of fear. He could feel the anger in the Queen Mother's heart at this moment. His body was shaking and he said tremblingly.

You really can't blame him for this matter.

Although the imperial guards were the elite of the Zhou Dynasty, they were completely incompetent in front of the three thousand princes' legion. Attack.

If he hadn't been aware of current affairs, he wouldn't have had a fierce conflict with the three thousand princes' legions.

Would he still be able to come to the Queen Mother alive? It's unknown.

Looking at Xu Hao's cowardly and frightened look.

The Queen Mother's eyes were helpless, and her heart was Very dissatisfied.

At the same time

, the Queen Mother felt a little afraid of the mysterious army that appeared out of thin air in the palace.

She knew that the weakest soldiers of the Imperial Guard had the realm of the divine sea, and there were many living and dead, princes, and soldiers.

Xu Haoshen He is the commander of the Imperial Guards, and his cultivation has reached the seventh level of power.

These powerful men, including the Imperial Guards, are no match for that mysterious army.

The most important thing is that, according to Xu Hao, in the palace, The mysterious army that appeared out of thin air, the soldiers were all princes and powerful men.

When did the Great Zhou Dynasty have such elite soldiers?

Even she, the Queen Mother, had never heard of it.

Could it be that this was also a trump card left by the late emperor for Gu Changsheng.

At this time, Right Minister Liu Wu also understood the cause and effect, frowned slightly, and said with some fear:

"It seems that we still underestimated the power in the hands of the emperor."

"The emperor not only has a royal guard in his hands, but also a mysterious and powerful person at the peak of his powers."

"Nowadays, the mysterious army that appears out of thin air in the palace is probably the emperor's handiwork."

"The late emperor was really willing to leave so many trump cards for the emperor."

Liu Wu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and murmured to himself.

In his opinion, the royal guards under Gu Changsheng's hands, the powerful and powerful men behind them, and the mysterious army that appeared in the palace.

These are all They were all trump cards left by the late emperor.

The purpose was to allow Gu Changsheng to secure the throne and take charge of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But what shocked him was that the late emperor was able to cultivate many forces secretly, so that he was not aware of it on weekdays. , It’s really terrifying.

However, what the right minister Liu Wu didn’t know was that the late emperor did not leave any trump cards for Gu Changsheng.

All of this was Gu Changsheng’s handiwork

"snort!"

"The emperor has the Royal Guards, a mysterious army, and he also has the Dragon Guards, the Royal Guards."

"When it comes to the strong, I have countless powerful people under my command. How can the new emperor compete with me?"

The Queen Mother snorted coldly and said with contempt on her face.

Although now, the palace defense has been taken over by Gu Changsheng's three thousand princes' army.

But this just made the Queen Mother a little angry.

To be honest, she really didn't treat Gu Changsheng In her eyes.

Just because she holds the Dragon Guard in her hands.

The Dragon Guard is an army created by the late emperor with great effort and great cost.

Although the Dragon Guard is small in number, all the soldiers are powerful. It can be regarded as the hidden trump card of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

After the death of the late emperor, the commander of the Dragon Guard was bribed by her, and she took the Dragon Guard in her hands.

And her true identity is the Demon Queen of the Demon Sect. At the critical moment, she also She can mobilize countless strong men from the Demon Sect.

Therefore, the Queen Mother did not care about Gu Changsheng at all.

What she was afraid of was the late emperor. How many trump cards he left for Gu Changsheng have not yet been exposed.

"Regarding your fault, I will not pursue it from now on."

"From today onwards, you will always pay attention to the emperor's every move.

The Queen Mother had a cold face and beautiful eyes. She looked at Xu Hao, the commander of the imperial guards, and said in a cold voice:

"Yes, Queen Mother!"

When Xu Hao heard this, he felt relieved and said with a respectful expression.

"Back off!"

The Queen Mother looked impatient, waved her hand and said coldly.

Soon,

Xu Hao retreated.

"Queen Mother, it’s time to make early plans"

"When necessary, even if we take desperate measures, we must eradicate the emperor at all costs to avoid future troubles."

At this moment, the right prime minister Liu Wu said with cold eyes, a low voice, and murderous intent. As soon as these words came out, the Queen Mother frowned slightly, her face was gloomy, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.

In her original mood In the process of planning.

The Ninth Prince Gu Changsheng ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, but he was just a puppet emperor in her hands.

She just took advantage of Gu Changsheng's identity as emperor, and logically took charge of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

After she takes control of the Great Zhou Dynasty, she will come. Dealing with the other princes of the Zhou Dynasty.

But what she didn't expect was that

Gu Changsheng had been pretending to be clumsy and scheming for the past eighteen years. It was not easy.

She wanted to control Gu Changsheng and become the puppet emperor in her hands..

This is obviously impossible.

But if we take action to get rid of Gu Changsheng, the other princes will definitely know that she did it and will definitely join forces to deal with her.

The Queen Mother was silent for a while, shook her head, and said softly:

"We should not take action against the new emperor for the time being, lest the other princes join forces to deal with this empress."

"Whatever!"

When the right minister Liu Wu heard this, he also knew the concerns in the Queen Mother's heart.

If Gu Changsheng dies, if the other princes of Dazhou join forces to deal with the Queen Mother, they may not be able to withstand it.

"Queen Mother, now the palace guards have been replaced by the mysterious army under the new emperor."

"At this time, we must not let the emperor take control of the city defense camp, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Recalling the recent events, I felt more and more that Gu Changsheng was unfathomable. Right Minister Liu Wu looked worried and reminded him loudly.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister, I will definitely gain the power of the city defense camp."

"As long as we use Lu Tao's daughter as a threat, Lu Tao will have to surrender."

The queen mother raised a sneer at the corner of her mouth and said confidently.

After hearing this, the uneasiness in the heart of Right Prime Minister Liu Wu gradually dissipated, and he looked in the direction of the royal study room in the palace with faint eyes.

This time they were well prepared.

New If the emperor can still control the military power of the city defense camp, then they can only take desperate risks and eradicate the emperor at all costs to avoid future troubles.
