Chapter 051: Ungrateful
ββ¦β¦ On that day, the capital will strengthen the security of the city gates, palace bans, etc., and the soldiers and horses of the five cities and the twelve guards will also send people to patrol the city,"
Through the window, the woman's soft voice came out, "But that's not enough. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info Jinyi Guards haven't moved yet, and they must be mobilized next. β
When the sturdy men outside the door heard this, they didn't say anything, but they all muttered a little in their hearts: In other words, didn't the King of Khan lead them into Beijing to assassinate the emperor of Daqi, create chaos, and take the opportunity to seize the country of Daqi?
Shouldn't we be extremely careful about such a major event, and never leak the news?
How can you listen to the meaning of the woman's words in the house, but she still thinks that the 'movement' is not big enough? What else does she want to incite the Khan to do?
Among the group of strong men, there are a few nimble brains who have already begun to ponder, planning to quietly remind the Khan King after the woman leaves.
The conversation continued in the room, this time with a man, "Oh? What is the best plan for Madame? β
His voice was slightly hoarse, and with the low volume, it sounded quite flavorful.
Listening to the voice, it is surmised that he is not very old, about thirty years old.
"I can't talk about good ideas, I'm just thinking about it."
The woman chuckled, saying modest words, but there was a faint conceit in her tone, "I heard that the general has sent his men to the capital every day for the past few days?" Or deliberately left in a hurry at the last minute before closing the gates? β
This is obviously to attract the attention of the guards guarding the city, but unfortunately, the people who went to carry out the mission were more than brave and clever, and they were busy for a few days, but there was no effect at all.
She was in a bad situation in front of her, and she was worried that the plan would not be implemented smoothly, so she had no choice but to go out in person.
Alas, these Tartars are good at war, but the rest is-
The woman sighed in her heart, cooperating with the reckless man in front of her was really a helpless choice.
The man who was disliked by the woman was born tall and big, with dark skin, hard tendons and flesh all over his body, and thick and hard stubble on his lips, revealing a fierce and brave from the inside out.
Moreover, the body is too strong, and the facial features are ordinary, which inevitably gives people a feeling of straightforwardness, to put it harshly, that is, 'simple-minded'.
But this man was by no means a fool, and he noticed the woman's contempt for them aliens, and he did not like it in his heart, but he did not show it on his face.
Still looking honest and honest, he nodded, with a slight smug tone in his tone, "That's right, this is my idea, it's very good." Hahaha~~"
The man laughed heartlessly, successfully enriching his 'simple-minded' image a little more.
The woman's forehead twitched, and she twitched again, resisting the urge to hold her forehead, she praised it against her will: "It's really a good way." β
The man's laughter grew more and more wanton.
The woman hurriedly turned back to the topic and said, "So, tomorrow, I ask the general to continue to arrange for the warriors under his command to continue to enter the city." β
The man stopped laughing, but his mouth still maintained the arc of laughter, and he patted his chest: "Madame, don't worry, with me, our plan will definitely succeed." β
The woman was not so optimistic, looking at the man's 'innocent' smiling face, she suddenly felt worried.
With such a pig teammate, can they really succeed this time?!
Taking a deep breath, the woman said, "The general does things, and I am a hundred at ease." In this way, they will be sent into the city tomorrow with twice as many men, and they will be able to move together as much as possible, and they will definitely hang out in front of the gates of the important offices. β
The man seemed to understand something, and asked with great interest, "Do you want to make a little more trouble with the warriors?" "Like deliberately finding someone to fight or something.
Since you want to make a big move, just be ruthless, wouldn't this be more able to attract the attention of the nobles in the inner city?
The woman almost choked on her own saliva, coughed a few times, and waved her hand vigorously, "No, no, you must not conflict with others." Let, we just need to let the palace know that there is a group of unknown Yi people mixed in the city, and other troubles can be avoided if they can be avoided. β
The man let out a sigh of disappointment.
The woman originally wanted to explain one more thing to him, but seeing him so embarrassed, she swallowed back the words when they came to her mouth.
After repeatedly telling such things as 'be cautious' and 'always focus on the overall situation', the woman got up and took her leave.
The man personally sent her out of the Guandi Temple, and watched her gradually disappear into the thick night.
"King Khan, this woman and we are not of the same mind, she, she has something to hide from King Khan!"
A red-faced man approached him and gritted his teeth.
The smile on the man's face had long since faded, he pursed his thick lips, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, "There is a saying among the Han people that if they are not of our race, their hearts must be different, and there is still some truth. β
She and they are just using each other.
She was hiding something from him, and why didn't he guard against her?
"So, why are you going to pay it back?" The red-faced man scratched his head, his face full of puzzlement.
The man didn't say anything, but raised his hand to call a young boy and ordered, "Go with her, and see where she goes." β
Although he has always been in contact with this woman, he has a hunch that she is just an errand runner and a messenger, and there should be another master behind her!
What he wanted to know most now was who that mysterious master was, and how could he know the secret of their Qiyan family?!
The boy agreed, and quickly walked out of the Guandi Temple, shuttling through the night at a very fast speed.
It didn't take long for him to catch up with the woman. Confirming that he was not following the wrong target, the boy slowed down, slowed his pace, held his breath, and quietly followed her.
The woman is not very old, but she is not small.
In the middle of the night, she walked alone in the wilderness, but she was not afraid at all, and walked slowly, looking indifferent.
The boy pursed his lips and said secretly: What a strange woman.
But I am becoming more and more vigilant in my heart, and if people dare to do this, they must have something to rely on!
The boy controlled his breathing more carefully, his steps became lighter, and his small body almost melted into the thick night.
The woman walked for a quarter of an hour, then suddenly stopped, her ears moved, and she found that there was no sound except the faint sound of the wind.
Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, her momentum changed suddenly, and her petite body floated out like a dexterous bird.
The boy was startled and hurried to keep up.
The woman would touch the ground with her toes after jumping a few steps, and then another leap, like a legendary martial arts master.
The boy has never practiced kung fu, because he has been grazing for his master since he was a child, he has developed a good soles of his feet, and in an emergency, he can even catch up with the horse.
Seeing that the woman's figure was strange, he knew that the other party was not an ordinary person, so he couldn't help but exert all his strength, gritted his teeth and chased after her.
The two of them descended the mountain one after the other, turned into a fork in the road, and turned around from the hillside on one side, sparing the road for an hour.
Just when the boy was almost unable to hold on, the woman suddenly stopped, turned her head sharply, looked around, and made sure that there was no one who was following her, and then turned to the hillside, and then took out a horse out of nowhere, jumped on the horse, and galloped directly towards the official road to the south.
The boy secretly screamed bitterly in his heart, and his feet did not stop, and he shook his feet quickly, and he could chase after him.
The woman galloped all the way, and after a quarter of an hour, she came to an inconspicuous courtyard, threw off the saddle and dismounted, she did not rush into the door, and looked back again.
A hundred paces away, the boy who was almost out of strength hugged a big tree, snorting and panting, and his little face was flushed abnormally.
He didn't care too much and wanted to continue chasing, but he didn't have the strength, so in desperation, he simply climbed onto the tree.
As it happened, he had just stood tremblingly on the branch when he saw the woman standing on her side as she went up the steps, knocking on the door and cautiously checking the movements around her.
The door opened, and the woman dodged in.
The door did not close immediately, but a man in his thirties walked out, and he looked left and right to make sure there was nothing unusual, and then he walked down the steps and led the horse inside.
The red lacquered door was closed, and the brass ring on the door shook slightly, but if anyone stood close, they would find that the two doors were not closed, and a pair of eyes were staring out of the door in the crack of a finger's width.
The boy stood on a branch of a tree, remembering the road in his mind, and remembering the appearance and location of the small courtyard.
It's just that he was too tired to climb down at all, and he held the trunk for half an hour before he climbed down weakly.
When I returned to the Guandi Temple, there was already a light in the sky, and the thirty or forty strong men in the courtyard had already packed up and were ready to set off.
The boy told his master everything he had seen last night.
"Very good, I'll go and see for myself today, where the hell lives there is sacred!" The man's eyes flashed with excitement.
β¦β¦
As the Halloween Festival approaches, the magnates in Beijing are also busy.
The men were busy visiting relatives and friends, making friends with vassal kings, and socializing everywhere, and even the most useless of them were in high spirits and wandering the streets in high spiritsβthey couldn't do anything serious, but they could listen to gossip and have fun.
Women are even busier, in addition to daily housework, personal contacts, social banquets, but also to put on the clothes and jewelry to wear when entering the palace to celebrate their birthdays.
Occasionally sit down for a cup of tea, and listen to the situation of the acquaintance's family, beware of the situation of 'giving the same birthday gift as the other person'.
Every family is like this, so busy, but they don't forget to pay attention to the movements of the court.
ββ¦β¦ Have you heard, Concubine Xian has a strange disease, and even Grandma Yao of Dongqi is helpless, and the people of the Liu family are in a hurry,"
Lady A squeezed her best friend's shoulders and whispered the latest gossip.
"Heh, why aren't they in a hurry? A few days ago, when Mrs. Yongenbo entered the palace, she brought the 'miracle doctor' invited by the Liu family everywhere, and yesterday the lady entered the palace again, but she brought two little girls who were like flowers and jade. β
Lady B waved her hand, and she was very disgusted by her friend's behavior of 'taking history as news'.
Lady A was not angry, and paid attention to the news of the Liu family: "She, she is so anxious? "It's too cold and unforgiving.
Concubine Liu Xian was not dead yet, and the Liu family hurriedly stuffed their daughter into the palace, with a face that they were afraid of cutting off contact with the royal family.
"Where is Lady Yongenbo in a hurry? It's clear that the Liu family's appearance is too ugly,"
Lady B pursed her lips, her ancestors were the founding heroes, and her in-laws' family were eunuchs, all of whom relied on real skills to make a future, and they looked down on relatives like the Liu family who made a fortune by nepotism.
"The Liu family has no choice, Liu Jingsi is in charge of the palace ban, if there is no daughter of the Liu family in the harem, let alone the Liu family, even a saint may not be at ease."
Although the news of Lady A is a little behind, she thinks very thoroughly.
Lady B nodded in agreement, and then, she still put on the face of a late lady and reprimanded her friend: "These words can be said casually?" Also, the mind of the saint is also something you and I can figure out? β
The vassal kings from all over the country returned to Beijing, and they all socialized everywhere in the name of 'visiting relatives and friends', and several adult princes were not willing to be left behind, which made the atmosphere in Beijing very strange.
On the surface, the capital is full of flowers and festive, but secretly it is treacherous and people's hearts are fluctuating.
Everyone is a member of the elite circle, except for some ambitious 'careerists', most of them choose to watch.
Don't dare to say sensitive words.
Lady A was reminded by her best friend, and suddenly remembered the advice of the elders in the family, and she was also annoyed, stuck out her tongue, and made a gesture of forgiveness.
The two have been friends for many years and know each other very well, but Lady B didn't care, and changed the topic with a smile: "You, you don't know how to converge as a mother, don't be on the side, you should also think more about the children." Speaking of which, the eldest princess of the Qi family is powerful. β
"The eldest princess of Pingyang? She, what did she do? β
The noblewoman was simple-minded and quickly diverted her attention.
A mocking smile bloomed on the lips of the noble lady Yi, and said: "Early this morning, news came from the southwest, saying that it was a civil rebellion in Wusa, and Liang Wei took the opportunity to raise troops, except for Wusa, all the Wumeng Mansion fell into the hands of Liang Wei. β
"Huh? Is there really a civil unrest? Lady A reached out to cover her mouth, her eyes widening in astonishment.
Lady B continued, "More than that. I heard that Qi was tyrannical, and the two families of pigs and horses were slaughtered because of personal grudges, and killed a total of more than 1,000 people. Among them, the Zhu family is still a big clan in Shuixi, and the matter involves Shuixi, so it is estimated that this matter cannot be good. β
Didn't the chaos in the southwest last year originate from Shuixi?
Lady A sighed and shook her head, this Qi family is really full of disasters.
After sighing, she remembered what she had just said and asked, "What does this have to do with Pingyang?" Could it be that she entered the palace to intercede for Qi Jinzhi? β
She didn't forget that when the Qianguo Mansion was confiscated last year, the East and West Mansions were all taken care of by the county lord of Qinghe.
Even if it is to repay the favor, Pingyang should say two good words for Qi Jinzhi.
Lady B sighed and said disdainfully, "Pleading? She did enter the palace, but not to intercede, but to tell Qi to use her power for personal gain, arson and robbery, and also took out 'stolen goods'. β
The noble lady was so stunned that she forgot to cover her mouth, and said in a daze: "Sue, denounce? β
Seeing her friend's stupid appearance, the noble lady Yi felt funny, and added another sentence with a bad heart: "Also, the eldest princess said that although Qi Jinzhi is a junior in her own family, she can't abolish the public for personal reasons, it just so happens that the two mansions have been separated, and she wants to build another ancestral hall!" β
Divide! Completely cut with the Xiqi?
Lady A opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a word.
