36. Exposure
The sudden appearance of gunpowder and arrows at the Spring Festival ceremony made everyone a little frightened and frightened. The crowd of onlookers at the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info made an uproar for a moment, fearing that they would suffer from the fish in the pond, and began to flee back to the city.
For a time, the banks of the Qinshui River became a pot of porridge.
The commander of the Jingwei and the general of the Qingyu battalion who were hidden in the shadows gave orders in unison, and hundreds of people in the crowd took off their coarse cloth coats to cover up, revealing their military uniforms inside. But even so, it can't resist the flood of crowded people.
Fortunately, Yun Shaohuang had already made preparations, and when the accident was suddenly born, Su Pei had already arrived with the red poppy cavalry in ambush to the north. With this iron-blooded army with sharp wrists, the panicked crowd was slowly controlled, led by the commander of the Jingwei, and headed towards the city gate in an orderly manner.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was still sitting stiffly on the earth cow platform, until the call of Yun Shaohuang sounded in his ears, and he was about to wake up. Glancing at the downed arrows not far from him, he wiped his sweat with fear, and saluted Yun Shaohuang, "Old minister, thank you for saving your life." β
What had just happened was in the light of lightning, and he didn't have time to see anything. I only knew that he was still reciting the end of the Spring Festival, and a person jumped out of the crowd and rushed straight to the Tuniu platform. Before he could react, he turned his head and saw the unknown powder hidden in the spring cow, as well as a extinguished rocket. Naturally, he thought that Yun Shaohuang had sensed the danger, so he shot down the arrow so as not to cause a disaster.
He has been in the position of Shangshu for more than 20 years, and has been in charge of many rituals, banquets, and tributes in the Ministry of Rites for many years, so he naturally knows what those unknown powders are. In addition, these days are approaching the end of the year, and before Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve, he has to make high-quality firecrackers and fireworks to make Bo Sheng's face, and under the immersion every day, this kind of taste can be said to be familiar and can not be more familiar!
But I don't know who is so bold that he secretly mixed such a large amount of saltpeter sulfur in the spring cattle, if these things encounter an open flame, they will explode immediately! When the time comes, don't say it's him, and the people of the whole city will probably suffer!
When the time comes, even if he has ten heads, it won't be enough to cut off!
Although General Yun intervened in time to stop a disaster. But this spring cow was indeed made by the Ministry of Rites, and now there is such a big mistake, even if there are no casualties, it is also accused of incompetence. In this way, the emperor is bound to blame him!
A gust of wind blew on the bank of the Qinshui River, and Liu Chunhai, who was more than half a hundred years old, couldn't help but turn slightly pale, and suddenly felt cold all over his body, like falling into an ice cellar, and his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys trembled together.
If it is the Holy One Himself who is present today...... Thinking of this, fine sweat began to ooze from his forehead, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore. I felt that the thoughts in my mind were suddenly confused, my two hands trembled slightly, I could no longer control my stiff body, and I staggered back and landed on the stone stake by the earth cow platform.
After Yun Shaohuang surveyed the scene, he saw that Liu Chunhai was still sitting on the ground in a daze, so he kindly called him up and bowed to him. I just wanted to say that I didn't come to the rescue, but I saw that his face suddenly turned white, and his expression was so ugly and ugly. In a flash of thought, it became clear why he was like this.
But half of this is also his fault! He knew that someone wanted to provoke today's disobedience, but after all, he still missed a step. Because he didn't expect that man to be such a vicious and vicious person, in order to assassinate the emperor, he would ignore the people of the whole city!
Fortunately, Ye Sheng ordered him earlier, so as not to make the emperor suffer!
After this incident, he realized that he was still too naΓ―ve. That Assassin could have such wisdom and courage, even if the emperor cooperated with his strategy to lure the enemy himself, not only might he not be able to catch the assassin, but would put the emperor in an unpredictable crisis.
Yun Shaohuang blamed himself slightly in his heart, looked at Liu Chunhai, whose face was like earth, and said comfortingly: "Master Li, it's not your fault in this matter. With so many people in the Ministry of Rites, it is inevitable that there will be omissions in some places, and you can't worry about everything. Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely say a few kind words to your lord in front of the emperor. β
When Liu Chunhai heard this, his pale face gradually improved a little, and he took a deep look at Yun Shaohuang, "Thank you, general!" After saying that, he turned around and looked at the young man who was the abbot of the Son of Heaven and said, "Lord Mu, please forgive the officials for their ineffective work." The lower official then arranged manpower to escort the prince back to his home. β
Yun Shaohuang turned his head to look at the man standing in front of the spring cow with his hands in his hand, and was in a hurry to investigate, but he ignored that there was a person standing next to him. At this glance, he saw that the man's body was slender, like a Zhilan jade tree, just a back, and the aura that emanated from it made him faintly breathe.
He squinted, this man was the rumored unfathomable Second Prince of Great Qin? Let the Marquis of Zhongyuan's Mansion respect the master of the Muwang Mansion for three points?
The man with his back turned slowly, his long ink-like hair fluttering, winding along his ice-porcelain jade neck to his chest. When he raised his eyes, he saw a face that could confuse the world exposed to the sun, and in an instant, the two people who were very close were stunned in unison.
Liu Chunhai finally figured out why he used the fence to hide his face when he got off the sedan chair, and he didn't take it off until before the toast, and he was in his mind at the end of the ceremony, and he didn't pay much attention to it. But I never thought that this famous man never appeared in front of people easily...... It's so stunning!
Yun Shaohuang looked at the enchanting face in front of him, his breathing was slightly suffocated, he only said with a clear complexion, he was already the best in Shangying City, no one could beat him, but he didn't expect this person to be inferior to him at all, but even better.
Since ancient times, boys and girls have been beautiful, and they are close to demons, all of which are bad omens!
Yun Shaohuang quickly calmed down, lowered his eyes and saluted: "The last general, Yun Shaohuang, has seen Mu Wangye." β
Baili Crane smiled slightly, "The famous general of the empire, Yun Shaohuang, this king has heard of it for a long time, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation." The general doesn't have to be polite. After that, he turned his head to look at Liu Chunhai, "Then please trouble Lord Liu to send someone to escort this king back to his house." β
Liu Chunhai respectfully lowered his body and said "yes".
At this time, two attendants came forward with their heads hanging from a distance, a man and a woman, the man was holding a fox fur, and the woman was holding a delicate fence, and the expression on her face was faint. Baili Crane's eyes flashed, as if there were subtle changes, but they were fleeting. Then, he staggered away from the two standing in front of him, smiled and stepped forward, and let them wear them.
The sedan chair carried by the eight people was not far away, and the two columns of Qingyu battalion soldiers and horses arranged by Liu Chunhai were separated from each other on the left and right, with strict armor and majestic majesty.
The first person is Yuan Wutao, the general of the Qing Yu Battalion, and Liu Chunhai, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is also the subordinate of the third prince Yu Wang Ma Shou is Zhan, and most of the officials in the court also know it. At present, in addition to the prince of the East Palace, who is the most promising person to inherit the throne, there are also the third prince Yuwang, the fifth prince Anwang and the sixth prince Dingwang, who has just come of age. Among them, King Yu's biological mother is Concubine Xian, and King An and King Ding are both born by the queen. Concubine Xian's mother family is the Langyang Lu family, and the queen's mother family is the Han Chun Gao family. The two major valve families have been at odds for a hundred years, and now they are even more incompatible because of the battle for the throne.
Therefore, although King Yu and his ilk cannot be compared with the prince of the East Palace, who holds real power, they can compete with King An and King Ding, who are backed by the Gao clan of Hanchun. But since seven years ago, the second prince, whose fate was unknown, suddenly returned to Beijing, and he didn't know what tricks he used, and instantly divided most of their forces. As a result, King Yu's hand center is very few of his courtiers, and the power that can be used is even more constrained everywhere! All of a sudden, the gap between him and the Anwang faction was far away, and he always held a grudge against this person.
His master doesn't want to see King Mu, so of course his subordinate doesn't want to see him either.
Therefore, when Yuan Wutao heard that Liu Chunhai asked him to escort Mu Wangye back to the house, he was unwilling in his heart. Not to mention that the prince Mu he saw was a man wearing a fence on his head and covering his appearance tightly. I was even more ashamed in my heart, thinking that this Mu Wang Ye was not favored by the saints, and he nested in the mansion all the year round, didn't he hold back something that was difficult to see?
Yuan Wutao snorted coldly, and when he saw him approaching, he stubbornly did not salute.
Baili He's expression was faint, and he didn't look at Yuan Wutao's eyes full of resentment, and after the woman next to him reached out and lifted the curtain, he leaned over slightly and entered the sedan chair.
Yun Shaohuang watched them go away from afar, pursed his lips and did not speak.
But Liu Chunhai beside him let out a long sigh, he stood on the earth cow platform, looking into the distance, naturally seeing Yuan Wutao's performance in his eyes. He shook his head suddenly, his eyes full of disappointment and regret. As soon as the Spring Festival Ceremony comes out today, even if the emperor doesn't want his life, I'm afraid that his position as a scholar will not be guaranteed. It's just that he is gone, and King Yu is equivalent to losing another right-hand man, so Yuan Wutao is still not a climate. In such a situation, if he no longer knows how to rein in his edge and forbears to retreat, he is afraid that one day he will end up in defeat and death!
His body stiffened for a moment, and finally bowed to Yun Shaohuang and said, "The old minister violated His Majesty's trust, so he went to the palace to ask for his guilt." It's just that the general is also asked to thoroughly investigate the cause and effect here, and be sure to arrest the criminals, so as not to affect the saint and the Great Qin world in the future. With that, he straightened his clothes and walked away step by step.
Yun Shaohuang stared at his back as if he were at home, and his heart was mixed.
Yuan Wutao escorted people all the way to the front of King Mu's mansion, and without waiting for Baili Crane to speak, he waved his hand, withdrew two columns of soldiers and horses, and said: "The last general still has something to do, so I won't send the prince into the mansion, and say goodbye!" As soon as the words fell, he took people away with him.
However, if he looked back at this time, he would see that the "Mu Wangye" had already taken off the fence above his head and was playing with the folding fan in his hand as if he were smiling.
The young girl slowly followed Qin Ya into the house, glanced back at the man, and squinted her eyes, "You still don't come in and peel off your face?" β
Yue Zheng shrugged, walked into the house, and smiled slightly as she walked past her: "What, I'm afraid that I will be on the face of the Lord, will you be moved?" β
The young girl's face turned cold, a cold light appeared in her eyes, but she raised her eyebrows and laughed: "Yue Zheng, you really make me want to destroy you more and more." She raised her hand and stroked the man's delicate cheeks, her lips were charming, and her posture was like a graceful willow branch in spring.
The next moment, but saw the woman's enchanting figure faintly changing, turned into a puff of green smoke, and drifted away.
The young girl was afraid that she was really annoyed by him, so she actually used the exercises to leave.
The golden plate is dazzling, the shadows of the trees are mottled, the mist in front of them is curling away, and in the hazy light, the appearance of the moon Zhengwu does not change color and does not beat from the face. Just as he was about to raise his feet, Qin Ya, who was walking in front, paused, looked back, and asked sensitively: "Is it the person you asked me to order to follow?" β
He raised his eyebrows and muttered, "Well, I don't know, I just feel like it, I see the face, but it's not." β
Qin Ya pondered for a moment and nodded. At that time, he and Qingnu were standing far away in the south, with their backs to the man, so they did not notice it at the first time. However, there is no such thing as a seamless and flawless thing in this world, and the Lotus Division has dispatched all of them, and even if those two escape to the ends of the earth, they will definitely be able to find out!
He turned around, a hint of murder flashing in his eyes. How dare you steal the Chizhang Spirit Jade? It's unforgivable!
It must be known that in the past six years, the Lord has not left Chizhang day by day, and the aura has already entered the body, if there is suddenly no spiritual jade nourishment at this time, it will definitely be more serious when the disease is launched in the future. Thinking of this, Qin Ya's elegant face suddenly showed a touch of gloom. Anyone who threatens the Lord cannot exist!
