The more you are afraid of something, the more you will come.

"When's it?"

"It's been two days."

Fu Qizheng was anxious: "At this moment, only the Queen Mother can make up her mind." Holding the talisman tightly, he got up and walked outside the hall, "Let's go, go to Ciye Palace." ”

On the road, Nian Jin'an worried: "The Queen Mother has always regarded Niangniang as a thorn in her side, and she may not be willing to see Niangniang." ”

"In the face of the crisis, the palace can still let go of grievances, the queen mother is the emperor's biological mother, how can she ignore the emperor's safety, and now the most useful thing is nothing more than this bronze talisman in the hands of the palace."

"But General Qi said that if Deputy Zhang defects, this talisman will ......"

"The Wang family's soldiers and horses have not arrived, how dare he rebel, seeing that the Queen Mother's top priority is to let the Queen Mother issue an order to remove Zhang Sheng's deputy capital."

The door of Ciye's palace was closed, and Concubine Zhen and Concubine Yun had already arrived outside the palace to wait. Concubine Zhen saw Fu Qizheng coming, and hurriedly greeted her: "My sister is here, Xia Chongyi said that the Queen Mother is sick, and it is inconvenient to see me and wait, and now she ......."

"At such a critical juncture, how could the Queen Mother suddenly fall ill." Fu Qizheng was confused, walked to the palace gate, knelt down with her skirt, and shouted towards the palace door, "Concubine Fu Qizheng has something important to ask to see the Queen Mother." "If even she comes to see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother should know that the situation is urgent.

The door of the palace opened, and the person who came out was Xia Luan, Fu Qizheng stood up and said, "Xia Chongyi, this palace wants to see the queen mother." ”

Xia Luanxi cautiously looked back inside, and said, "Concubine Aya, the Queen Mother...... ...... sick, please go back. ”

"This matter is related to the safety of the emperor, and the palace must see the queen mother no matter what."

Xia Luan Xi shook her head lightly, and said in a calm tone: "Concubine Aya, that's all the slave has to say, Niangniang, please go back." Then he turned and entered the temple and closed the door.

Fu Qizheng was faintly aware of it, and silently looked at the slowly closing hall door.

Concubine Zhen was worried: "How is this good." ”

Concubine Yun hurriedly said: "The queen mother refuses to see it, and the queen mother refuses to see it, the emperor is in trouble, we can't sit still." ”

Fu Qizheng suddenly remembered, turned around and glanced at the concubines, but he didn't see them, so he asked, "What about the royal nobles." ”

"The concubine went to find the royal nobles before, and the palace maid said that she went to see the queen early in the morning and never returned." Chenghui Su said.

Fu Qizheng roughly guessed the reason, and when she saw He Youzhu beside Concubine Zhen standing with heavy eyes, she didn't say a word, thinking that she should also know.

Concubine Yun glanced at Concubine Zhen and said coldly: "Concubine Zhen is in charge of the Six Palaces, and now she should have an idea." ”。

Concubine Zhen was helpless: "As a palace concubine, I have no soldiers and no power, how can I save the emperor." ”

Su said: "Is it possible, we can only ask God for blessing." ”

Tong Shujin said: "Concubine Zhen is in charge of the six palaces effectively, and the concubines are convinced, but to solve this crisis, they have to rely on the forces outside the palace. ”

"When it comes to power outside the palace, we all know that we can't compare to Concubine Aya, so now we have to let Concubine Aya's mind come up." Chen Xiying smiled faintly and looked at Fu Qizheng.

The others chimed in: "Yes, now let's listen to Concubine Aya." ”

Fu Qizheng saw Chen Xiying's smile in a blink of an eye, and knew that her intentions were not much better, and knew that her push was to let Concubine Zhen transfer power to herself, not so much because of the overall situation, but because she was waiting for an opportunity to provoke. Even the guards of the capital went out of the city to rescue, except for the forbidden army, there were no soldiers and horses in the city of Pingjing, and the so-called power is now just empty talk.

Concubine Zhen also said: "Then, the palace also listens to my sister, and everything depends on my sister." As he spoke, he handed the waist card out of the palace to Fu Qizheng.

Even Concubine Zhen spoke, Fu Qizheng expected that she couldn't shirk it, so it was okay, so as not to worry about the concubines and mess up, so she said: "This matter is in a hurry, let's disperse first, go back and take care of the servants in each palace, don't spread the rumors."

"Yes." The concubines answered and left.

Fu Qizheng whispered a few words to Nian Jinan, and Nian Jinan went to stop He Youzhu, He Youzhu looked back at Fu Qizheng, and saw Fu Qizheng bowing slightly, He Youzhu also nodded his head and moved away.

When he returned to Jingyi Palace, He Youzhu was already waiting in the hall, and got up and owed: "Concubine Aya." ”

Fu Qizheng dismissed the maid and let Nian Jin'an stay outside the hall, and then entered the hall and said: "Youzhu doesn't need to be polite, Fang Cai Ciye Palace has many ears and eyes, and it is really inconvenient to speak." ”

"I guess Niangniang also saw it."

Fu Qizheng nodded, and said slowly: "The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother should be under house arrest, most of the people sent by Zhang Sheng in the Ciye Palace to watch the Queen Mother, let Xia Luan Xi come out to send the concubines, Xia Luan Xi and the palace are on the same page, if the Queen Mother really doesn't want to see it, how can she be kind to the palace and persuade her, very polite." ”

He Youzhu said with heavy eyes: "In this way, the real purpose of the Taihe Army is not to hold the emperor hostage, but how about he wants the palace?" ”

"Wang Yong's plan is to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, and now Shujingwei is going to rescue the driver, Pingjing City is empty, I am afraid that what he wants is the entire Pingjing, with Pingjing, the imperial city will naturally become a bag." Fu Qizheng stared and said, "Pingjing can reach half of the country, the loss of Pingjing is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Daning, it is precisely because of the heavy land of Jinggi that the emperor has to try to get rid of the big trouble outside the city, but he didn't expect Wang Yong to fight so quickly, the Yongan army is still outside the city, he dares to take such a big risk to gamble on this game." ”

He Youzhu worried: "The Yong'an army is far away, and the guards of Shujing go out of the city to rescue them, if the soldiers come to the city, Pingjing may be caught off guard." ”

Fu Qizheng said again: "In this case, I will also gamble, just bet that Wang Yong will personally lead the troops to attack the imperial city when he enters Pingjing." ”

He Youzhu thought for a while: "Yuanshui can't save the near fire, at this moment only Shujingwei can save Pingjing, Liu Dutong has followed his father for many years, he should listen to me, but at this moment it is too late to recall Shujingwei to defend, I have a way to break its tail, but I have to try to trap its head, regardless of the head and tail, there is a chance of winning." ”

Fu Qizheng nodded his head, but he was not half sure in his heart, he knew that when the soldiers came to the city, Zhang Sheng would definitely defect, and when the soldiers in his hands fell, only Qi Huanyi's henchmen were left, and most of them were guards who had left the palace with the emperor, and the rest was only Qi Huanyi's intention to stay and send her out of the palace safely at a critical time, how could he fight against the thousand troops.

"I'm afraid that only you and I know about the crisis palace in Pingjing, without further ado, I want to leave the palace quickly."

Fu Qizheng took out the waist card given by Concubine Zhen and handed it to He Youzhu, and instructed: "Be careful all the way." ”

After He Youzhu left, Fu Qizheng wandered anxiously in the palace, the forbidden army defected, Wang Yong attacked the imperial city like a bamboo, and it was not easy to talk about it.

It didn't take long to see He Youzhu come back in a hurry. "The palace gate is blocked, you can't get out, those guards don't recognize the waist card, saying that the deputy has an order, and no one is allowed to enter or leave." He Youzhu hurriedly said, "If I can't get out, who else can recall Shu Jingwei." ”

Fu Qizheng muttered: "At this time, we can't have a hard fight with him, you go and change your clothes, I can send you out of the palace." ”

He Youzhu changed into the costume of a palace maid and followed behind Fu Qizheng, Fu Qizheng handed a letter to He Youzhu: "It seems that it is easy to go out, but it is difficult to come in, you can go to my house to avoid it when the matter is done, and the Qin Mansion can also be avoided." ”

He Youzhu frowned: "Wouldn't that mean that you have to face this crisis alone." ”

"Don't all the people in the palace have to stay now?" Fu Qizheng smiled indifferently: "What's more, I'm going to wait here for the emperor to come back." ”

Xicheng Gate, the palace gate is still closed, the guards saw Fu Qizheng and saluted: "Concubine Aya." ”

"Concubine Aya, the minister is about to invite Niangniang."

A voice came from behind him, Fu Qizheng turned around, it was Qi Huanyi's deputy general Fang Tong, who led the two teams of people over.

"Captain Fang already knows."

Fang Tong led the entourage of guards to kneel down, and said: "Niangniang, the Taihe army will attack Pingjing tomorrow, and the last general will be ordered to send Niangniang out of the palace, the carriage has been prepared, and now only this Xichengmen is still guarded by her own people, Niangniang must not hesitate again." ”

Fu Qizheng resolutely: "This palace will not leave." ”

Fang Tong was shocked and said hurriedly: "Niangniang, I'm afraid that Zhang Sheng will even change the guards of this gate in a while, and ...... at that time."

Fu Qizheng said coldly: "This palace orders you to immediately send someone to follow Xian Ronghua out of the palace, and be sure to send Xian Ronghua to the Jingwei Mansion safely." ”

"Mother's ......"

Fu Qizheng took out the soldier talisman in his sleeve and clearly said: "What is this, Captain Fang should know, at this moment, the order of the palace is the military order, and Hugh has to disobey." ”

When Fang Tong saw the talisman, he was anxious but had to comply: "The last general obeys the order, and you two escort the concubine." Fang Tong ordered the two of them, and said to He Youzhu, "Concubine, please, the carriage is already outside the door." ”

He Youzhu hurriedly said: "The carriage is too slow, just ride a horse." ”

The palace gate opened, and He Youzhu got on the horse and galloped away with two guards.

"Niangniang......" Fang Tong knelt on the ground.

Hearing that Fang Tong was still begging for each other, Fu Qizheng turned around and said, "This palace has made a decision, Captain Fang doesn't need to say it, please get up." ”

Fang Tong reluctantly got up and said to the guard: "Close the door." ”

The palace gate slowly closed, and Fu Qizheng turned his back on that glimmer of life, and went to the depths of the palace, moving forward step by step.

"This matter must still be hidden from the palaces, and it must not be spread outside, the enemy is current, and the palace must not be chaotic." Fu Qizheng said to Nian Jin An while walking.

Nian Jin'an responded: "The slave knows. ”

The afterglow reflects this majestic imperial city, Fu Qizheng stands on the tower, in front of him is the vast heaven and earth, looking back at the palace behind him is the palace and the heavy building is insignificant, is life, is death, all in tomorrow.

"Niangniang, the palace has changed, and it is really dangerous for Niangniang to come to Tianhuamen." Nian Jinan walked over and said.

"His master didn't come, and he didn't dare to do anything to the palace." Fu Qizheng said lightly, "Wang Yong is so happy, the most pompous and pompous, the palace will gamble again, tomorrow Wang Yong's people will come in from the main gate of Tianhua." ”

Nian Jin'an was puzzled: "What does Niangniang want?" ”

Fu Qizheng looked down at the city tower: "My aunt looked at the two city towers inside and outside the Tianhua Gate, the city walls on the left and right sides are high, and the four sides are closed, what does the middle look like." ”

"Niangniang wants to invite you into the urn?"

"Tianhuamen is indeed advantageous." Fu Qizheng took a deep breath and said: "But no matter how ingenious the city tower is, the palace gate is under the city, and whether you can guard it or not, you can live in the city tower, not in the city tower." ”

After explaining everything, it was late at night when I returned to Jingyi Palace, and the palace was still in turmoil, as calm as usual.

The lights in the bedroom of Jingyi Palace were brightly lit, Fu Qizheng stared at the picture scroll spread out on the bookcase, but his heart was quiet, and he muttered to himself: "When the king returns, can the concubine still return this painting to the king with her own hands?" Leaning over the bookcase, his face pressed against the scroll, a tear slipped down and soaked in the paper.

On the fifth watch, when Nian Jin'an came in, he saw that Fu Qizheng had fallen asleep on the bookcase, and called softly: "Niangniang." ”

The tear stains on the painting had dried, leaving a shallow imprint, Fu Qizheng woke up, the sky was about to dawn so soon.

Liu Yi and Shui Meng came in, and Shui Mo rubbed his eyes: "Why did Niang Niang get up so early today." ”

Liu Yi glanced at the bed and said to Shui Mist: "You are stupid, you didn't see that the master didn't sleep at all." ”

Seeing that the two of them were arguing all the time, Fu Qizheng smiled and said, "Okay, let's change clothes." ”

This Yunjin gorgeous costume has never been worn so far, is it faintly afraid that I want to wear it at this moment, afraid that I will never be able to wear it in the future? Fu Qizheng looked at the gorgeous costume in the mirror, a little distracted.

"Why does the master want to wear this today?" Liu Yi said curiously.

"The clothes are already good-looking, but they look even better when they are worn on the mother." Shui Wu said with a smile.

Fu Qizheng was silent, dressed and changed, Fu Qizheng only left Nian Jin'an alone in the palace to accompany him.

Fu Qizheng sat in the hall, looked at Nian Jin'an and asked softly, "Auntie is afraid?" ”

"When the army is pressed, there should only be those surnamed Wang in the palace who are not afraid."

Fu Qizheng couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I haven't experienced what fear is for a long time, I don't know if I'm in a mood now?" He sighed again, "Even if Wang Yong takes the palace, he is just holding the palace emperor hostage, he doesn't dare to easily deal with the people in the palace, not to mention that the queen is still there, and the people in the palace should not be in danger of their lives, except for the palace, the palace will compete with him, if he loses, he will ......." "Mother." Nian Jin'an knelt down in front of Fu Qizheng.

Fu Qizheng stared blankly, and slowly spoke: "If you lose, Aunt Lao will return the painting to the emperor for the palace." ”

At dawn, a guard hurriedly came to report: "Niangniang, the rebels have arrived outside Zihua Gate." ”

Fu Qizheng was stunned; "How come, doesn't it mean that even if you don't meet resistance and go straight to Pingjing to attack the imperial city, it will arrive in the evening at the earliest?" was in a panic, and she actually entered through the Zihua Gate, wouldn't all the deployment be in vain, could it be that she lost the bet after all?
