Chapter Seventy-Four: Whistleblowing
Wu Fenghua chased straight outside the prince's tent, and did not look at the shadow of the white cat. He hurriedly asked the guards guarding outside the prince's tent: "Big brother, did you see the white cat running in?" The second young master of the Wu family is still young, and everyone he sees in the military clan is called big brother. When the soldiers saw that he didn't show the score of his son, and he fought bravely, everyone was more polite to him.
The guard nodded. Wu Fenghua was relieved to turn around and leave, he walked a few steps, and remembered what his father had just said to the guard. This is different from the previous time when his father only secretly reported the battle situation to the eldest princess, this time he wanted to frame the crown prince. The prince showed no signs of rebellion, and he didn't know why his father said that. said that the prince secretly hid the booty, and even his father, who was not on the battlefield, got a lot of loot, not to mention the prince's black guards who had been rushing to the front.
He knew for sure that his father was putting the prince to death.
Wu Fenghua thought about it while walking around outside the prince's tent, and the black guards who came in and out of the prince's tent also saw the strange appearance of the second young master of the Wu family. Hei Er walked over to him and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, what are you doing here so late?"
After these hours of training on the battlefield, Wu Fenghua's body has become stronger, his height has grown, and his white face has been tanned brown. He looked around with a long pair of Danfeng eyes, pulled Hei Er to a dark corner, and said softly: "Tell the prince that my father has been in contact with the eldest princess, and he sent someone to follow the team back to Youzhou tonight." When he entered the city gate, he would ask the eldest princess to report to His Majesty: The prince is secretly hiding the spoils of war, and the prince has the intention of rebellion. With that, he quickly left.
Hei Er stood behind him, watching Wu Fenghua's background melt into the darkness. Hei Er turned around and entered the tent and reported to the prince what Wu Fenghua had just said.
The prince smiled: "The British government actually produced a person who killed his relatives in righteousness. ”
Hei Yiyi: "I really didn't expect that the second young master of the Wu family would actually tell the prince about his father." ”
Hei Er asked: "Do you want to send someone to intercept Hei Si, or send someone to kill the person sent by the British Duke to deliver the letter?"
The prince waved his hand: "No, it will startle the snake." ”
Hei Yi explained to the prince: "If you say that the master has the intention of rebellion, it is spread from below. ”
Hei Er glared at Hei Yi angrily: "Are you crazy?"
Hei Yi hurriedly said: "It was the crown princess who asked me to do this." ”
The prince laughed: "She's forcing people to strike first." ”
"Yes, that's what the crown princess said. ”
"That's good, and I'm looking forward to good news for them. Hahaha. ”
The prince beckoned to the white cat: "Bai Ri, you go and keep up with the black four, and act when you see the opportunity." ”
Black and black were surprised to see the prince arrange for the white cat to run errands, and the white cat still had a name called Bai Ri. Bai Sun meowed, and the eyes that looked at Black One and Black Two revealed to show off, and it wagked its big tail and swaggered out of the tent.
"This, this, Your Highness, can a white cat do it?"
"Lone doesn't know, try it. The prince said lightly.
Daysun caught up with the convoy led by Black Four before dawn. He was at the back of the convoy and saw the man who was quietly following the convoy. Seeing that the convoy was going too slowly, he was behind the stalker, playing tricks on the stalker from time to time.
When the man was sleeping on the tree in the middle of the night, he knocked the tree down during the day, and the man was so dizzy that he couldn't tell whether it was in a dream or outside a dream. The man squatted to defecate, and during the day he threw a long snake at him, which frightened the man into running away with his pants. The man scolded hatefully: What a hell along the way.
In this way, when he was about to reach Chang'an City, he rushed into the palace.
In Zhaoyang Palace, the crown princess was having lunch, and Bai Yue was eating fish on a plate. When Bai Ri saw it, he exclaimed in surprise: "Wow, sister, you have eaten fish." ”
Bai Yue happily rushed towards her brother and pulled her brother to the ground: "Brother, you are here, come and eat fish." ”
"Sister, can you eat fish, aren't you afraid of stinging?" Bai Ri touched his sister's head with his hand.
Bai Yue glanced at her brother weakly, and then looked at Feng Ling. Feng Ling said to Bai Ri: "It was the concubine who forced her to eat, and she can grow tall by eating fish." What are you doing here? What about your master?"
Bai Ri put down his sister's eating fish and didn't mention it, and said to Feng Ling: "Something happened, the master asked me to deal with it." Master, give me the bag from last time. ”
The only one who served Feng Ling to eat was Hongmei, who had long been accustomed to the strange things of her master. She was amazed to see her master talking to the two kittens, but she was also able to be expressionless.
Feng Ling took out the Qiankun bag and handed it to Bai Ri, who hurriedly finished eating the fish, touched his sister's head and said, "Brother is gone, I asked Hei Si to bring you a gift, he should send it in tomorrow." You have to be good. ”
Bai Yue nodded: "I know, brother go slowly." ”
Feng Ling heard that Hei Si was coming, and glanced at Hongmei, who lowered her head with a flushed face. Feng Ling smiled secretly.
During the day, he jumped on the tower of Chang'an City and went out of the city. At the highest bell tower in Chang'an City, Bai Ri saw the guy who was being tricked by him, and his nose and face were swollen and he secretly climbed into a mansion. Bai Ri jumped over and glanced at the sign at the door: Eldest Princess's Mansion.
A gust of wind slipped away into the suburbs. Hei Er's party was slowly walking towards the city gate. Hei Er encouraged everyone: Everyone work hard, hurry up and enter the city before dawn, and then eat and drink......
The group walked for almost ten days, lacking food and drink, and everyone was almost tired and crawled down.
Bai Ri swapped the contents of the Qiankun bag with the things they had loaded on the carriage. He put the things into the Qiankun bag and nagged: "This is the jade furnace, this is the jade ruyi, this is the golden pot, this is the pearl of the night...... This is to move all the inner libraries of the Jingguo Imperial Palace......"
He found a hole to hide his things, and flew to Chang'an City again.
The eldest princess received a letter from the shadow guard from the front of the battle, and she saw that the British duke's whistleblower letter read: The prince sent the booty back to Beijing. The prince has a heart of rebellion.
The eldest princess asked the shadow guard, "Where is the convoy that delivered the loot now?"
The shadow guard replied respectfully: "It's still on the way, about two hours to Chang'an City." ”
The eldest princess stood up: "What's wrong with your face?
The shadow guard hurriedly replied, "I fell from a tree in the second half of the night." ”
The eldest princess looked at him a few times: "You go down first." ”
The shadow guard saluted and retired.
The eldest princess asked her to change into palace clothes, set up a carriage, and hurried into the palace to meet His Majesty.
His Majesty was busy with government affairs for a long time, and finally took a break for a while, so he went to Zhaoyang Palace to talk to Concubine Wan. He saw that the concubine's complexion had improved a lot and her mood had improved, so he asked, "Ai Concubine, why are you so happy?" ”
Concubine Wan covered her mouth and smiled: "Feng Ling, that girl, has been playing leaf cards with her concubine in the past few days and has lost a lot of silver. Today, I lost all my silver and pulled out all the gold hairpins to my concubines. ”
"Hahaha, let that girl lose more. ”
When the two were talking and laughing, the eunuch came in to report: "Your Majesty, the eldest princess is waiting outside, saying that there is an urgent report."
His Majesty said impatiently: "What is the urgency, you need to report it now?" He now dislikes this aunt more and more, he really thinks that he is a fool, and he doesn't know her small actions in private? There are some things that he only gives if he wants to, and if he doesn't want to give them, he has to take them, and he is killing himself.
The eunuch was also afraid of angering His Majesty, and his own life would be at risk. He made a pleading gesture to the concubine.
The concubine remembered what her father told her before she entered the palace: Don't despise those subordinates in the palace, especially the eunuchs. She said softly to His Majesty: "If the eldest princess is fine, she will not come to your majesty now. Your Majesty will see you, and you should accompany the concubine to move her body. ”
His Majesty was in a better mood when he heard Concubine Wan say this, he picked up the pot-bellied concubine and walked out slowly.
The eldest princess didn't see His Majesty summoning her into the palace, and after waiting for a long time, she was in a bad mood when she saw Her Majesty helping the big-bellied concubine to come out.
His Majesty stood on the steps of the Zhaoyang Palace, looking at it with a calm face: "What is the important matter of the eldest princess that needs to be reported now?"
The eldest princess suppressed the fire in her heart, respectfully saluted the two of them, and then said, "Minister, I received a secret message that the prince will smuggle the spoils back to Beijing today." "She hid that the prince had a rebellion.
His Majesty smiled, the eldest princess actually planted eyeliner in the army, and his information was not as fast as the eldest princess. When the concubine heard this, she gave Xiao Zhao a look, and Xiao Zhao quietly retreated.
"Where are these loot bearers now?" asked His Majesty.
"It's almost outside Chang'an City. "The eldest princess also knows that if she reveals this news to Your Majesty, she will also be suspicious of Your Majesty. But the most important thing for her to do now is: to use this matter to separate Her Majesty from the crown prince, and to take down everyone in the Zhenguo Mansion.
"Good, good. Commander Chuan Fang, who led the Praetorian Guard to take the prince and return to Beijing outside the gate of Chang'an City. ”
Soon, a group of Praetorian Guards rode horses and hurried straight from Chang'an Avenue to the gate of Chang'an City. This move disturbed the people in Chang'an City, and the people who watched the excitement followed the horses and ran outside Chang'an City.
