"The Empress Dowager summoned me." Qin Sheng widened his eyes and looked at Qin Niang in surprise who came to announce the order. "I only summoned me" glanced at Cao Yi and Wang Jingluo who were swept over the side. Both of them were also inexplicably surprised and looked at Qin Niang in confusion.

"Return to the General, what the Empress Dowager said."

"Is Your Majesty the Emperor okay?"

"Your Majesty is still crying and I don't know if he is unhappy. He has already gone to recruit an imperial physician to see him." Qin Niang bent her knees slightly and said.

"Oh!" Qin Sheng nodded and looked back at Cao Yi and said, "Maybe because His Majesty cried endlessly, the Empress Dowager couldn't leave, and wanted to learn about the city defense situation in Shangjing, so he summoned me alone to avoid too many people and make His Majesty even more frightened."

Although Qin Sheng's explanation was a bit far-fetched, the two Cao and Wang could not say anything at this time. Cao Yi said tentatively: "Qinniang, since that's the case, I might as well take the leave first. Can the Empress Dowager summon the ministers to meet after the work is over?"

"Sir, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. The Empress means asking you all to wait in the Tai Chi Hall for a while." Qin Niang smiled. "Old General, please don't let the Empress Dowager wait for a long time."

Qin Sheng pulled his white beard a few times and followed Qinniang to the back hall.

The doubts in the hearts of King Cao and the others gradually arose.

Cao Yi turned around and gave a wink to the end of the hall. An instant official in a furious dress walked out of the hall. As soon as he stepped out of the hall, a guard with a knife came up to him, "Please stay and ask the adults to return to the hall."

The guard seemed very humble, but there was no room for any change in what he said.

"I am in a hurry and I want to go and explain it to you."

"Sorry, the villain received the order that no one is allowed to step out of the Tai Chi Hall without the permission of the Queen Mother." The guard said firmly.

"Anyone" official said in surprise.

"Yes, anyone!" The guard nodded vigorously.

The official raised his head and looked outside the Tai Chi Hall, his face changed slightly. Compared to when he was in court this morning, the guards outside suddenly had more than twice as many as before. More importantly, there were countless black-clothed Luowang Operation Team members on the periphery of the guards.

The official's face changed a few times, he retreated, walked to Cao Yi quickly, and whispered and quickly told the situation outside. Cao Yi suddenly felt cold all over. Looking at the back hall, he couldn't think of what was wrong.

In the palace, Qin Rouniang's world is the capital.

In the back hall, Qin Rouni had recovered from peace. She held her son Li Hao and teased him with a smile on her face. This time, it was Qin Sheng's turn to sweat profusely. Lin Zhiyuan told Qin Sheng the general feelings about the matter again.

"The Queen Mother, you have to be very busy and have to be careful. At this time, you can never withstand any storms in the capital." Qin Sheng said

"What does the old general mean? How should I deal with Cao Yi and Wang Jingluo?"

"Did the Queen Mother want to kill them?"

"Can't you kill me?" Qin Rouniang asked with a smile on her face.

"Empress Dowager, if you are guilty, these two people should be cut into pieces, but at this time, they are not allowed. These two people, especially Cao Yi, have a very high reputation among all officials. Even in the capital, they are highly respected. If the empress dowager takes this person, they will definitely cause great storms. At that time, going to the capital will be really unstoppable." Qin Sheng said hurriedly.

Qin Rouniang smiled bitterly, "Of course I know I can't kill you, otherwise I would have ordered the soldiers to enter the Tai Chi Hall and take down these two people. Why should I ask the old general to come here? But this matter must be made with a charter. The news from Lou Xiang is afraid that these two people will escape. Once they leave, the people will still be in chaos in the capital."

"The Queen Mother wants to put them under house arrest"

Qin Rouniang nodded, "I won't kill them, but from today, they won't want to leave the palace, so stay in the palace!"

Qin Sheng lowered his head and thought for a moment, "I'm afraid this is the best way, but the Empress Dowager, the Cao family Wang family has many generals scattered in the army, and the old man is worried about a mess! What I am most worried about is Cao Xiang of the Cao family. This person is not an ordinary person. Not only is his own martial arts master, but he is also quite appealing among the Cao and Wang families. Once Cao Yi and Wang Jingluo are imprisoned, this person will be the backbone of these two families in the capital now."

Qin Rouniang lowered her head and thought for a moment, "I will deal with this person. I know and understand Cao Xiang. This person is loyal to Cao. As long as he has this belief, I can control him."

"I understand!" Qin Sheng thought for a while, nodded.

"At this moment, I would like to ask the veteran general Qin to leave the palace immediately. I will put the two kings under house arrest. This is not concealed. The veteran general needs to take charge in the army to avoid other troubles."

"Yes, the old minister immediately left the palace to make some arrangements." Qin Sheng said.

"The old general is working hard!" Qin Rouniang stood up and bowed to Qin Shengying.

Qin Sheng sideways to avoid Qin Rounniang's gift, Wei sighed: "The old minister and his family have enjoyed the blessings of Dayue for decades. They can make their last attempt to survive and die in their seventies. Even if they die in the end, they will not be buried. If they go to Huangquan, they will still have the face to meet the emperors of Dayue."

Hearing Qin Sheng's sad words, Qin Rounniang was stunned and suddenly said: "Old General, Cao Yi planned to take refuge in Shuzhou. This man is scheming and has always been aimless. I wonder, can we move to Shuzhou too?"

Qin Sheng shook his head, "Empress Dowager, this is not feasible. Cao Yi is a minister, the emperor is the king. Cao Yi goes, and His Majesty the Emperor will never go. When Cao Yi and others go, perhaps Yun Zhao will still recruit peace to avoid large-scale wars. But if the emperor goes, perhaps Yun Zhao will not need to send troops. Xie An, who controls Shuzhou, will take the emperor as a gift for his reunion. The minister surrenders, but the king will never surrender. Once the emperor leaves the capital, he will immediately be defeated. Besides..."

"Besides what"

"Besides, the young master of Shuzhou Xie Zhao and tens of thousands of Shu children were captured by the Northern Expedition Army. Xie Shilin was in Anba Prefecture and was in a panting place. If they surrendered to Yun Zhao, Shuzhou would not be a safe place. I think Lou Xiang did not agree with Cao Yi's proposal, and most of the time he considered this. If he went to Shuzhou, he would be a destruction situation."

"I've been taught. It seems that we can only fight to the death in Shangjing." The magic color on Qin Rouniang's face suddenly became dim, and it was also an unsolvable situation to trap Shangjing.

Qin Sheng hurriedly left the palace. Qin Rouni was stunned for a while and ordered Lin Zhiyuan to say, "General Lin, I will send someone to the palace with you. You can hand over the people of the Cao family and the Wang family to them. Then these people will be taken to the palace. Be careful not to expose the identities of these people. The old general Qin has already left the palace and he will arrange everything."

"Abide by the will of the Empress!" Lin Zhiyuan: "After the handover, the general will return to the army. General Lou wants to attack Pukou, and the general must charge and rush into the battle."

"Go, give me a word to General Lou, and I say that I am very grateful to him. When he returns to Beijing, he will definitely give him a lot of rewards!"

"The last general, General Lou, thanks the Empress Dowager Tianyou for his kindness." Lin Zhiyuan knelt down, bowed three times and fell to the ground, stood up and left the palace with high spirits.

In the Tai Chi Hall, the ministers were like ants on a hot pan. No matter how dull the person was, he knew that something must have happened, otherwise the empress dowager would not have gone forever, and even Old Man Qin did not come out again after entering. Two hours had passed, and the person trapped in the Tai Chi Hall could not step out of the hall a single step, and he was anxious.

As time went by, Cao Yi and Wang Jingluo finally couldn't sit still. They looked at each other and were about to take action, Qinniang was already coming out from behind.

"Sir, please be careful, and you can leave the palace soon." She said with a smile.

Everyone looked at Qin Niang and knew that she had some more details. Sure enough, Qin Niang continued: "Mr. Cao, Lord Wang, the Empress Dowager is invited!"

Cao Yi hesitated for a moment, "Where is the old general Qin?"

"The Old General Qin is still talking to the Empress Dowager behind!" There was no difference in Qin Niang's expression.

When King Cao and the others stepped into the back hall, they immediately realized that something was wrong. Qin Rouniang sat high and there were guards standing on the left and right, and Qin Sheng was gone.

Looking at the two people entering the hall, Qin Rouniang showed a sneer on her lips, "Sir, Lord Shangshu, can you know whether you are guilty?"

Cao Yi paused in his heart and looked at Wang Jingluo, who was also looking at him.

"Empress Dowager, what is this? I don't understand. I think that since Your Majesty ascended the throne, Cao and Lord Wang have been exhausted to solve their worries and problems for the Empress. They are unable to sleep or eat in the defense of the Beijing government, and do not know where the crime is." Cao Yiqiang calmed down and asked back.

"What a cicada spirit is exhausted, and the other is unable to sleep or eat. I'm afraid it's just to get your Cao and Wang family safely escape to Shuzhou," Qin Rouniang scolded angrily.

"Immortal, I don't understand what I said!" I screamed in my heart, but Cao Yi's face was silent. "Immortal, don't listen to the provocation and discord of people with ulterior motives and destroy the Great Wall."

"Soul the Dispute" Qin Rounniang smiled at the sky, "Cao Yi, do you think that after Ziyan left, my net will be different now, so that you can do whatever you want, so that you can understand that it is just now, Lin Zhiyuan, the general of Lou Xiang, just came and just left the palace."

"What did Lou Xiang say? The Queen Mother, Lou Xiang has a rebellious bone in the back of his mind. In recent years, he has been suffering from bad deeds. How could the Queen Mother listen to this person's nonsense?" Cao Yi shouted, feeling quite desperate, but he still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that Lou Xiang would not do things too well.

But Qin Rouniang's next action immediately made Cao Yi completely fall into despair.

"Come on, take those people up!"

The sound of iron chains jingling came from outside, and the members of the Luowang team were caught and led to the two of Cao and Wang.

"Sir, tell me, is this sow discord? If it is sow discord, how did these people get into Lou Xiang's army?"
