"Empress, think about it. How could a dog like me dare to lie to you about such an important matter! This is a great crime of extermination. How many brains do I have to say that?”Wei Qi said with a straight face, his words convincing.
"En…that makes sense, but this prince still has to ask you something. If it wasn't for this prince's men who brought you here, would you have decided to help Eunuch Gao?”
When the Empress heard Wei Qi's words, she couldn't help but nod and ask coldly.
"Your Majesty, you are wise. This matter is of great importance, and this servant truly does not dare to tell Your Majesty. Eunuch Gao is sinister and cunning, and is full of tricks. This servant is truly afraid that Eunuch Gao will kill me.”Wei Qi once again complained in front of the Empress.
"Hmph, let's see if he dares!" The Empress slammed the table, looking furious."BenGong will go find His Majesty now. This matter is of great importance, so BenGong will go ask His Majesty to issue a decree to detain Eunuch Gao.”
The mutiny was too important, and the Emperor had to know about it.
"Empress, you can't!" At this moment, Wei Qi shouted again, his face full of loyalty.
"Hmm? Why?" The Empress stopped and looked at Wei Qi suspiciously.
"Has the Empress ever thought that now that the Empress does not have evidence of Eunuch Gao and the Minister's mutiny, even if the Emperor believes the Empress 'words, what can the Emperor do to the two of them with their current power in the court?”
At this point, Wei Qi paused for a moment before continuing,""However, if the Emperor does not believe the Empress's words, it is very likely that the Empress's position as empress will be lost. At that time, the mother of the country will no longer be around, and our Great Zhou will be in danger. The country will be destroyed, and the people will be plunged into misery. The entire country will fall into the hands of evil!”
As he spoke, Wei Qi's eyes seemed to be dripping with heroic tears as he looked like he was in pain.
"Minister Wei is right." Looking at Wei Qi's expression, the Empress was also a little touched. Even her tone became gentle,""Does Minister Wei have any good ideas?”
"This servant believes that the Empress can contact the Garrison and have them make preparations. When it's midnight, if this minister really does lead his troops into the Palace and the mutiny is confirmed, then we can calmly charge into the Imperial Palace and successfully rescue the Emperor. In this way, Eunuch Gao and this minister's plot will be foiled, and the Empress will have performed a great service!”
Wei Qi's glib tongue was like a glib tongue, and his face was full of seriousness.
"Minister Wei is right!"
The Empress nodded her head. At this moment, she was already convinced of Wei Qi's words.""This prince is summoning the capital's garrison…no, this prince is issuing a secret edict to order the capital's garrison officers to be on guard and await this prince's orders to eradicate Eunuch Gao and the eunuchs!”
When she said this, the Empress appeared to be in high spirits, as if she was ten years younger.
After saying that, the Empress looked at Wei Qi with satisfaction and nodded.""Minister Wei, you have done a good job this time. BenGong is very satisfied. After the great event is successful, BenGong will confer you the title of Chief Eunuch! You must keep this matter a secret, do you hear me?”
"Following the Empress 'decree, this servant will take his leave first.”
After bowing to the Empress, Wei Qi retreated and left Jingren Palace.
It was almost midnight.
Dark clouds covered the moon, and there was almost no starlight. The entire world seemed extremely dark.
When it was midnight, as expected, the Great Zhou Prime Minister came out of the Prime Minister's residence in Shangjing City and immediately entered the Imperial Palace.
Following him were many armed soldiers.
One had to know that bringing troops into the palace was equivalent to rebellion. Even the royal guards needed prior approval.
After the Prime Minister entered the palace, the palace doors closed again, so tightly that not even a fly could fly out.
This news was quickly made known to the Jingdou garrison, and it was delivered to the Empress by messenger pigeon.
"As expected, Eunuch Gao wants to rebel against the Prime Minister. Inform the Jingdou Garrison to charge into the Imperial Palace and rescue His Majesty!”
The Empress immediately gave the order. Not long after, the Jingdou garrison immediately began to attack the Royal Palace and engage the royal guards.
The Jingdou Garrison was indeed the elite of the elite. They were eager to rescue the Emperor and quickly broke through the gates of the Imperial Palace and charged in.
The royal guards seemed to be extremely weak. They only resisted symbolically for a moment before retreating.
After the Jingdou Garrison entered the Imperial City, the Empress immediately gave the order to immediately charge into Yangxin Hall. Then, the Empress also led a group of people and rushed to Yangxin Hall.
When the two groups of people arrived, the Jingdou Garrison immediately surrounded the entire Yangxin Palace Hall, so tightly that not even water could leak out.
"Emperor, don't be afraid, ChenQie came late to save you! I hope the emperor can forgive me!"
The Empress was eager to save him, so she didn't think too much and immediately ordered,""The emperor is inside right now, hurry up and charge in to save him!”
As soon as he finished speaking, countless soldiers rushed in like a tide, as if they really wanted to kill all the rebels in Yangxin Palace Hall.
"Help, help, someone come quickly, the Empress is rebelling!”
As soon as the countless soldiers rushed in, shouts immediately rang out from Yangxin Palace Hall.
He saw the minister blocking the emperor behind him. His face was loyal and patriotic, and he looked like a loyal minister at this moment.
