Chapter 128: Confused
The rest of her words were all held in her throat, because she suddenly saw Yang Shiqi's eyelids move, and she suddenly said, "Husband, why are you so drunk!"
While pretending to fetch water to scrub Yang Shiqi's hands and face, she also asked Handong to make tea to relieve hangover, and she also said: "In front of the officials of the imperial court, there are many entertainments, and now that you have come to this thief's lair, you can drink like this!"
Yang Shiqi couldn't help but let out a low and muffled voice from his mouth, Zhang Zhaohua's stomach was about to burst with laughter, and he secretly admired his superb acting skills and meticulousness. Seeing that he also drank tea, but still didn't wake up, Zhang Zhaohua said: "Handong, let's sleep with the two of us tonight, your master drank so much and vomited in the middle of the night, don't worry about it, let him feel uncomfortable, see if he can drink it every day in the future?"
After Zhang Zhaohua turned off the lights for a long time, she almost fell asleep, and in the silence, she heard a slight sound on the beams, and then only the sound of the west wind remained.
She suddenly came to her senses, and then saw Yang Shiqi also jump off the bed opposite.
"How is it?" Zhang Zhaohua grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on, and slowly groped for it. Her ankle is still in severe pain, and she is presumably a fractured bone, but there is no way to see a doctor right now.
Yang Shiqi's eyes were still a little unable to turn, but he obviously heard her inhalation, and said: "The person is gone-if you can't walk, I'm afraid that your ankle bone will be seriously injured, and you have to find a way to find a doctor to see." ”
"Do they have a doctor here?" Zhang Zhaohua lifted the hem of his trousers and stretched out it under the moonlight to take a look, only to see that his ankle was swollen like a steamed bun, and there was a circle of red on it, as if it had been stamped.
Yang Shiqi said: "I'll look for it tomorrow." Tomorrow I will go to work under Dong Yangao, and I agreed to his invitation at the banquet tonight, but he, obviously not worried about me, sent someone to monitor me. ”
"This level can't be confused," Zhang Zhaohua said: "If he comes to listen every night, he will know that we are not in the same bed, and sooner or later he will be suspicious! You have to dispel his doubts as soon as possible, and we must also escape from this place as soon as possible!"
Yang Shiqi nodded and said: "Bin Hong is cunning, Dong Yangao is suspicious, and there is also a Buddha mother, it is said that the supernatural powers are vast and omniscient, and I haven't seen it today, this place of the tiger's den and wolf's den is to be extremely careful." ”
Yang Shiqi got several important news at today's banquet, one is that although the White Lotus Sect is powerful in Shandong, it is actually a loose alliance of religions, that is to say, these disciples actually have different subordinates, but they all respect the Buddha Mother in Qingzhou. The big and small commanders are all fighting on their own, grabbing territory.
"The fact that such an organization can still succeed shows that Shandong has reached the point of resentment among the people, not for any other reason. Zhang Zhaohua said: "What is the origin of the Buddha's mother, and why do all the big and small sects respect her?"
Yang Shiqi has not inquired so extensively and in detail, he said: "Her origin still needs to be inquired slowly, but I have heard that the situation in Hunan is worse than that in Shandong, it is said that in just these two days, it seems that Changsha has been taken." ”
"Changsha has fallen so soon?" In the palace, Gao Chi paced anxiously: "That's where the political envoy Si Yamen is located, and Uncle Gu Wang is also in Changsha!"
The rebellion in the three provinces developed rapidly, but Hunan was the most severe, and the fall of the provincial capital would paralyze the military and political organs everywhere.
"It's urgent!" Huang Huai said: "We need to send people to suppress the rebellion as soon as possible!"
Gao Chi nodded and said, "Who can send them?"
"Fengcheng Marquis Li Bin," Huang Huai said: "He is a veteran who is good at using soldiers, and he can rely on it, please send it to Hunan as soon as possible." ”
Gao Chi said: "Hunan went to Li Bin, who should Shandong and Henan send?"
"Your Highness doesn't have to worry," Huang Huai said, "The minister estimates that the emperor will send veterans there." ”
The emperor just went to Beijing to inspect the mausoleum, and there were many civil and military generals around him, and Shandong and Henan were confidants, so the emperor would definitely personally send someone to suppress it. Huang Huai's suggestion was reasonable, but Gao Chi hesitated, because Zhang Zhaohua was in Shandong at this time, and he had been out of contact for more than ten days, and no one knew her current safety situation.
Gao Chi said: "Liu Zhong, the commander of the capital of Shandong, must resist before the imperial army arrives in Shandong, you see that he sent an urgent report, only saying that the rebels are strong and can only hold on to Jinan - these traitors have not yet attacked Jinan, right?"
"It's nothing more than greed for life and fear of death," Huang Huai said: "Your Highness can force him out of the city, and at the same time order Chen Xuan, who is preparing for the sea, to lead the boat division to Shandong and fight together." ”
Gao Chi's edict soon arrived in Shandong, and Liu Ben, the envoy who received the edict, hurried to the political envoy department, but he waited for nearly an hour before he saw Chu Yan, the political envoy who was slowly coming, "Lord Chu, why did you only come out now! The prince's edict has arrived, telling us to quell the rebellion in Shandong as soon as possible!"
Chu Yan took the edict and read it, and said unhurriedly: "I know, Lord Liu, I'm afraid this matter is really urgent." ”
"Can't be in a hurry?" Liu Ben was like an ant on a hot pot at this time: "The White Lotus Sect in Shandong rioted, the counties were in an emergency, and the embankment was blown up, whose fault is it?
"Lord Liu," Chu Yan said, "You also know that this official was born in Suigong, and he traveled around Qilu before becoming an official, and he is well aware of the spread and influence of Maitreya Sect in various parts of Shandong. This time, Maitreya rebelled because the people were still in the mood and the people were starving, and now it has become a menacing trend. Alas, if you don't cultivate in your previous life, you will be an official in Shandong in this life. It is already unfortunate that you and I cannot pay the full amount of service for the imperial court, and still have to rely on the imperial court to distribute relief. Wouldn't it be even more shameful if it made matters worse at this time?"
"To make it worse?" Liu Ben said confusedly: "The imperial decree that you and I will assist you in commanding Liu Zhong to quell the rebellion, how can it make it worse?"
"What does the imperial court think of this rebellion," Chu Yan snorted: "The officials forced the people to rebel." God knows if we forced it. But this time, if the restrictions are too much, the rebellion will be even more radical. Lord Liu, think about Liang Shanbo, such a group of people with great magical powers, but in the end, they were not recruited by the imperial court? After repeated conquests, they did not gain an inch of success, and they also lost their troops and generals, so where is the face of the imperial court? In my opinion, it is better to be gentle and soothing Sui, and it is the best policy. ”
Liu Ben felt that what he said made sense for a while, but for a while he felt that it was not. The officers and soldiers of the imperial court have not yet arrived, and the officers and soldiers of the Dusi Guard have not yet faced the battle, and they have started to recruit security without fighting, what is the reason?
He suddenly remembered something: "The prince still has a handwritten letter." ”
Chu Yan was shocked: "Where is it?"
Liu Ben took it out and said, "The prince said that there is his nurse Yang in Cao County, Shandong, and let our local officials rescue it quickly." ”
"Nurse Yang?" Chu Yan showed a thoughtful look: "Is that so?"
After sending Liu Ben away, Chu Yan immediately wrote a letter and ordered his subordinates to send it out. He lightly lit the censer, sat down cross-legged in a cloud of smoke, pinched a strange hand, and began to close his eyes and breathe it out.
