Chapter 278: The Jade Box Contains a Hanging Life

As a cold sweat descended, Yunyang found himself too nervous to get out of the most important piece of news. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although Cheng Xin now knows the location of the rebels, if there is no other condition, everything is in vain.

That's the 10-day limit.

"How could I not say this critical news? If Cheng Xin didn't know the exact time for a while and didn't stop it in time, wouldn't it be in vain when the soldiers came to the city? ”

"Now, Cheng Xin has left the palace, Wang Chongbei can no longer give him the opportunity to enter the palace, and I am like a caged beast, and it is difficult to fly out of this Qiao Hall with wings, how can the news of time be conveyed to him?" Yunyang was so anxious that he couldn't regret it.

Wang Chongbei has been paying attention to Yunyang's actions, and when he saw that her expression had changed, he stared even closer, and ordered all the pen, ink, paper, and inkstones in her inner hall to be taken away, for fear that she would have the opportunity to pass on the secret letter.

When it was almost dusk, someone outside the palace came to report that Cheng Xin ordered someone to send a box of spices to the palace, saying that it was specially dedicated to the concubine.

When Wang Chongbei heard this, he felt that this matter was not trivial, so he ordered someone to bring in the box of spices, pour them all out, and ordered someone to knock the brocade box with an axe to see if there was a note and letter in it, but he found nothing.

Yun Yang stood sideways by the curtain, looking coldly at them angrily looking for the so-called evidence, and said in his heart: "These stupid materials, the spices that Cheng Xin sent in this time are white pear fragrances that are very close to the appearance of jade ribbon incense. ”

"This is to tell me that he has fully understood what I mean, and at the same time, he will not let Wang Chongbei grasp the handle."

Wang Chongbei and they were busy outside, and Yun Yang knew that he must have found nothing, so he put his mind at ease, turned around and went back to the inner hall, picked up the carmine satin sachet that had been half-cut before, and leaned against the window to embroider it.

After a while, Wang Chong strode in, looked at Yunyang viciously and said, "Don't be complacent, I have seen through all your plans!" ”

Yun Yang was completely unprepared, and was shocked, stopped the needle and thread in his hand, and looked up at him.

Wang Chongbei saw that she looked flustered, so he was even more sure of the guess in his heart. He looked into Yunyang's eyes and said word by word: "When you met Cheng Xin, you deliberately let him see the spices, and said that it was given by his wife, which is to imply that he should send you spices." ”

"Then you can give him something in return, and then hide the secret letter in it and send it out. It's a pity that you have exhausted all your skills, and you will eventually succeed! ”

Yunyang's heart was already hanging in his throat, and when he heard him say this, he didn't know whether to be happy or worried, so he had to be stunned and silent.

Wang Chongbei saw that Yunyang had this reaction, and expected that he must have said her plan.

He frowned and walked back and forth in the hall a few times, then turned to Yunyang and said, "Your plan is so clever, it really shouldn't be wasted. Then I will ask you to give him a thing, but the secret letter that is attached to it will be written according to my will. ”

Yunyang was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, and thought in his heart: "I thought I wouldn't have a chance to send the news out again, how did you know that you were so arrogant and arrogant, and you had to do it yourself." ”

"Since you have such good intentions, I will do my best, and spread the news right under your nose to see how proud you are."

Although he was happy in his heart, his expression could not show his willingness, and Yun Yang refused to stand up where he sat upright. When Wang Chongbei saw this, he was afraid that she would deliberately delay time and ruin the big thing, so he shouted: "Stand up and go get a reward right away!" ”

When Yunyang was yelled at like this, he trembled in shock, and walked towards Duobaoge with a panicked expression, first took down the red sandalwood carved cloud dragon pattern rectangular medicine box made by Emperor Song Xian, and then took out a thousand-year-old red ginseng from the Silla Kingdom from a brocade box next to him and put it in, and then walked back with the medicine box.

Wang Chongbei has been staring at her intently, for fear that she will be careless and let her do something. Yunyang came to the bookcase with the things to be rewarded, and when he saw that there was nothing empty in front of him, he said, "What do you want to write in this palace?" ”

Wang Chongbei ordered someone to bring the four treasures of the study, put them in front of Yunyang, and said: "Now I say, you write, don't write a wrong word!" ”

Yun Yang looked at him with pretended resentment, reluctant to put pen to paper. Wang Chongbei sneered: "If you don't write, I'll ask someone to cut down a palace maid next to you now, just start by drinking green......"

Unexpectedly, Wang Chongbei could threaten her with the lives of the palace people, and Yunyang's face began to turn pale. She always thought that Wang Chongbei was targeting herself, as long as she still had use value, this person would not do anything to her.

Therefore, when confronting him, Yunyang was not timid in his heart. But today, this person actually used such indiscriminate means to try to control himself, which made Yunyang know more in his heart that he must defeat him, and there is no time to delay.

Seeing Yunyang tremblingly picked up the pen, Wang Chongbei read word by word: "I have received the news that the rebels are assembling from the border pass to Luoyang, and the generals will surround Luoyang in about 15 days, and use these 15 days to inform the emperor of the news, and ask the emperor to send troops back to rescue Luoyang, otherwise the country of Great Qi will be in danger." Remember. ”

Wang Chongbei's intention was to use this letter to make Cheng Xin mistake the time for the rebels to start and miss the opportunity to make decisions.

Moreover, because Zhao Yuanshen is far away in southern Xinjiang, it will take ten days to inform him, which will not only not save Luoyang, but also disrupt Zhao Yuanpingnan's overall plan, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Yunyang wrote down every word that Wang Chongbei said, and wrote four more words in front of him, "reply as promised".

Wang Chongbei picked up the letter written by Yunyang, read it carefully, and sure enough, he found that she wrote these four words at the beginning of the letter, and judged it carefully, feeling that it was just a lie, and it did not affect the meaning of the entire letter.

He didn't say anything, and the letter was hidden under a flannel cloth with red ginseng in the medicine box, and it was quickly sent to the Privy Council.

Yunyang saw that Wang Chongbei found these four words, but he didn't let himself rewrite them, and put them in his throat, so he put them back in his stomach.

It turns out that the four words "reply as promised" are indeed polite words in normal times, but they can be used here as the key words to turn the situation around, because Cheng Xin knows that there is no agreement with Yunyang, let alone ask for a reply.

These four words are inexplicable here, and it can only be said that Yunyang wrote this letter in a state of being held hostage, and what he said in it is not credible at all.

In addition, the thousand-year-old red ginseng is also called "hanging life" in the Qi country, that is, the dying person can hang his life after feeding him red ginseng, so that he can stay in the world for a few more days.

Giving such a thing to Cheng Xinxin actually means: "Time is pressing, you and I are like people who have hung their lives." If Cheng Xin thought about it further, he would know how tight the time was, then he would have noticed that the red ginseng containing the red sandalwood carved cloud dragon pattern medicine box was actually useful.

With Cheng Xin's many years of experience in collecting antique treasures, he can quickly see that this artifact is from the hands of Emperor Song Xian, as long as you look at the "Book of Song" repeatedly reminded by Yunyang, you can know that Emperor Song Xian made a medicine box for the queen in the past, and this thing was sent to the queen, and the queen died in less than ten days.

Therefore, all the information is clear - the rebels are assembled in Yudai Mountain and Xiwei Mountain, and are moving towards Luoyang, less than ten days before the day of the siege!
