That night, the holy car moved to Taiyuan Mansion, and emergency military orders were spread out one after another. www.biquge.info The first is to order General Ashina Zhensi to divide 5,000 troops, feign a large army to return to help, and scare away the rebels of Li Chen, the king of Hejian County, who are besieging the palace; the second is to quickly send a herald to rush back to the capital for 800 miles to appease the people of the court and the palace, and not to let gossip spread; and the third is to inform the king of Yong'an and the rebels of Jian Guogong that if the battle on the front line eases, they may as well return to the division to annihilate it, and then defend against foreign enemies.

When the saint finally stopped writing, the sky was already dawning. Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter outside, breaking the heavy solemnity and silence. He looked up, and Li Wei, the king of Siyue, immediately pushed the window open, and saw a dozen or so people covered in blood talking and laughing with the Qianniu guards. Look closely, who is it not the group of warriors who broke off last night?

The saint was surprised, walked forward quickly, and carefully examined them—and the string of human heads they were carrying: "Reward! Reward! Thousands of miles, whether they are injured or killed, they will be counted according to their military merits! These Turkic warriors are also included in the Qianniuwei!! Brother Wei Chi and Engu and the others were overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down to thank them.

Then, this group of warriors who already had a fateful friendship looked at each other and smiled, and they were extremely hearty: "Saints, rest assured, we only have the wounded, and none of them died at the hands of that group of rebels!" "Now that I think about it, even they think it's incredible. Kill three or five hundred people with twenty people, and you can still get out of the whole body!! It must be said that the courage and fearlessness of the king's people infected them, and made them forget their fear and the pain of their wounds, as if they were helped.

The sage looked left and right, but he never found any trace of Wang Zixian among them, and couldn't help asking, "What about Zhiyuan?" ”

"Back to the saint, Wang Sheren couldn't stand it because of the blood splashed on his body, so he went to take a bath and change clothes." Yu Chi Dalang replied, grinning, "He said that if you meet a saint without being clean, it will be a loss of honor in front of the emperor - however, we are all rough people, and we don't care about what clothes we wear and what baths we come over!" ”

"Sage, this is Zhiyuan's harvest!" N'ergu was also busy calling out to the others, and moved dozens of heads together, "It's much neater than ours!" Why don't the saints also seal him into the Thousand Cow Guard? ”

"......" The sage was silent for a moment, staring at the pile of heads that seemed to be cleaner, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Do you think that the Zhongshu people around me are not as good as Qianniuwei?!" Haha, I really didn't expect that my Wang Sheren is really omnipotent! I used to be worried, although there were vacancies in the three provinces of the imperial court, but he was so young, he should have experienced more things. Now that I have found a good place for him, I will stay by my side for a few more years, and then let him go out of town! "The metropolitan governors of the border towns and even the metropolitan protectors of the prefectures need to be important ministers of both civil and military affairs, so that he can be completely assured.

Not far away, a laugh came from the moment: "The minister thanked the saint for his grace first." This time, I bother you to give me a witness, and I will gradually accumulate it in the future, and change to a lord to glorify my ancestors. As soon as the words fell, a handsome young official from Yushu came over with a smile as before.

***********************

Just when Li Chen, the king of Hejian County, was forced to retreat and flee north under the pressure of the imperial army, and the palace that had been besieged for two days and nights was finally safe and sound, a rumor quietly spread in Chang'an City. Because the remarks were too rebellious, all the high-ranking officials and nobles did not dare to speak out, but secretly they were all panicked and worried.

In the Daming Palace, Queen Du frowned, and her eyes were cold: "Thoroughly investigate the Daming Palace!" If you find anyone spreading rumors privately, immediately arrest them and punish them for treason!! Her voice had never been so cold, as if it were counting nine winters, and it sent chills down the spine of all listeners. Shang Gong and Shang Yi immediately took the order to retreat, and the young eunuch in the palace, who was specially left in the palace by the saint to assist her, also immediately began to restrain the palace people. The situation is serious, even if the punishment is a little too heavy than usual, they will not disobey the orders of Her Royal Highness the Empress.

"Auntie." Princess Yong'an, who was standing behind the heavy curtains, showed a pale little face, and asked softly with a frightened face, "What they said, but is it true?" Grandpa is really...... He was really besieged in the palace by the thieves and was seriously injured...... Life and death are unknown? ”

"Of course not." Empress Du summoned her over, hugged her and said softly, "The saint is in Taiyuan Mansion in a good manner." I don't know which of these rumors came out with sinister intentions, and they just want to make the capital, the imperial court and the Daming Palace completely chaotic. Our mother and daughter have to be stable, and we must not let them be satisfied, do you understand? ”

"I understand." Princess Yong'an nodded and buried her little head in her warm arms, "But, Auntie, why haven't you received a letter of peace from Grandpa in the past two days?" ”

"It's just a delay. Wouldn't you be surprised to receive two peace letters in a few days? ”

"Well, A-Niang does have a point. That...... A-Niang, when was A-Di born? Is it possible that my brother was born and can be stable inside and outside the palace? A-Niang no longer has to recuperate every day, and can go out with her children...... Grandpa won't be sad anymore? ”

"Good boy, wait a little longer. Seven months later, he would be born. Queen Du smiled lovingly, "Go, your sister is handling palace affairs in the side hall." The huge Daming Palace and Taiji Palace, I don't know how much palace affairs have accumulated alone, you might as well help her, how about it? In a few years, it's time for you to go down...... The internal and external affairs of the princess's mansion must be under your control. ”

"My son won't get married." Princess Yong'an's face flushed slightly, turned around and ran away with her skirt.

"At the age of seven, it will grow in the blink of an eye." Empress Du stroked her abdomen and looked at her back with a smile. However, there was still a slight gloom in her eyes that had not dissipated: "Summoning King Pu, Princess Pu, King Pu and King Xin'an into the palace, I must see them in an hour." ”

Soon after, King Pu's father and son and Princess Yan came to the Penglai Hall of Daming Palace, and they didn't dare to delay for a moment.

The matter is serious, Queen Du ordered the palace people to retreat, and Fang solemnly said to them: "The rumors in Beijing in the past two days, presumably the second brother and sister-in-law should have heard about it." I don't know when these rumors actually entered the Daming Palace, obviously deliberately done by someone with a heart. I don't need to mention this person, you should know who it is. I wonder what you can do to subdue this person? ”

"At this time, rumors spread, and their hearts can be punished." Li Taidao, "As long as the source of the rumors is found, you can be punished for treason!" Because Her Royal Highness the Queen was there, Her Royal Highness King Pu didn't have time to ask his son who this "caring person" was. Of course, this did not delay him from expressing his opinion.

"It's too late to get to the source." Li Xin pondered for a moment, "Since you have used such a trick, if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent." The king of Jiangxia will definitely start in these two days. It only takes one thing to stir up the situation, and perhaps he will take advantage of it. "And this one thing happened either in the palace, or in the clan outside the palace. He needed something like this to attract the attention of others and make his own fortune.

Li Hui bowed his head slightly: "The child already has a plan in his heart, if the uncle can trust the child, help the child persuade the uncle and grandfather?" He had always disagreed with the child's risky plan, but now he had to do it as a last resort. If you don't follow the trend, there may be changes, but it will affect the war on the front line, and it will also worry my uncle. ”

"When will I not be able to trust you?" Empress Du curled the corners of her lips, "However, it is not easy to persuade my uncle. The second brother and the second sister-in-law also went with me. ”

Li Tai and Yan naturally had no objections, as parents who doted on their son, they must have believed that their son's plan would be successful. In the face of anyone who disagrees with this plan, they are prepared with a thousand words. Even if the other party is Qin An, the Duke of Wu Guo, who has always disliked a certain nephew, is no exception - even if he doesn't want to see his uncle again, His Royal Highness King Pu, who is strong as a father, has no fear! ――With the princess and Her Royal Highness the queen here, even if there is still some emptiness in my heart, I can ignore it for the time being.

At this time, a Shang Gong reported in the foreign court: "Her Royal Highness the Queen, there is news from the Chengxiang Palace, Concubine Yuan Shu has a fetal gas, and she has become popular!" Shang Pharmacy came to report to the emperor, and the imperial doctor had been sent to diagnose and treat him, but the situation seemed to be a little bad, and the dragon heir might not be able to save it......"

Hearing this, everyone in King Pu's Mansion immediately looked at Queen Du, but Her Royal Highness's expression remained unchanged at all: "Go to the emperor for diagnosis and treatment, and do your best." No, just follow me. Speaking of which, I haven't seen her for a while, and after nearly twenty years of friendship, I should always go and see her. ”

"Her Royal Highness the Queen, the Chengxiang Hall is unlucky, and I am afraid that I will collide with the phoenix body." Yan Shi persuaded, "Just go from Shang Palace." "Concubine Yuan Shufei's miscarriage is a bad omen. Queen Du's body is precious, and it is somewhat taboo to set foot in an inauspicious place. What's more, I'm afraid that there is already chaos in the Chengxiang Palace at this time, if someone has bad intentions, or if Concubine Yuan Shu is full of hatred, maybe she will secretly order someone to do something.

Queen Du shook her head: "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, it's just a trip, I'll be careful." After that, she put on her robe and got up, and after walking a few steps, she looked sideways at Li Hui, "Xuan Qi, how much do you think those rumors outside are true?" ”

Li Hui was stunned and replied categorically: "Nothing." ”

Empress Du lowered her eyes and smiled, and stretched out her hand to hold the Yan family: "Okay, if the second sister-in-law is worried, she will go with me, how about it?" ”

Yan will not refuse, and happily go along.

King Pu's father and son then also left Penglai Palace. His Royal Highness King Pu continued to take his niece and grandchildren to enjoy spring flowers everywhere in the Daming Palace, and His Royal Highness King Pu also continued to be busy with military rations. His Royal Highness the King of Xin'an County returned to the palace, cautiously took out the blank stamped edict, imitated the woman's hairpin flower Xiaokai, and wrote a will-although his uncle and grandfather Qin An, Duke of Wu, and his uncle and grandfather King Jing were still skeptical of his strategy, but he did not care about waiting for the elders to stand up for him.

The situation in Beijing is changing rapidly, and there is no room for hesitation!
