Chapter 82

When Jiang Wei arrived at Jiaofang Palace, Jiang Changhui was still in the silkworm room, and the female official Yan welcomed her in with a smile, "Xiao Jiuniang, you are here, Sanniang is raising silkworms in the silkworm room." ”

Jiang Wei quietly walked into the silkworm room, and when he entered, he heard a rustling sound, Jiang Changhui wore a narrow-sleeved shirt and put the cleaned mulberry leaves in the bamboo plaque, the room was very dim, seeing Jiang Wei coming, she smiled and handed over the mulberry leaves to the palace maid, and walked out of the hall with Jiang Wei, "Why are you here?" Jiang Changhui asked.

"I'll come over to accompany my aunt." Jiang Wei said, "The saint and the elder brother will not come back for a few days, I will sleep with you." ”

"Aren't you afraid that Gorou will be jealous?" Jiang Changhui teased her.

"There's an aunt here." Jiang said with a smile.

"Let's go have tea." Jiang Changhui has recently fallen in love with afternoon tea.

"Auntie, are these silkworms you raised used during the silkworm ceremony?" Jiang Wei asked, she rarely participates in the silkworm ceremony.

"No, just keep it and play with it, and when the cocoons are formed, they will be sent to the weaving workshop." Jiang Changhui said that compared with pets such as cats and dogs, Jiang Changhui thinks that silkworms are not bad, at least they are not smelly and annoying.

Jiang Wei raised silkworm babies when he was a child, but he has never had a good impression of this mollusk.

"You also study together, and in the future, you and Gorou will do this kind of thing together." Jiang Changhui said with a smile.

Jiang Wei was a little distracted, and he didn't know what happened to Brother Lu Dao now?

"Know?" Jiang Changhui pushed his niece, "What's wrong?" Got something on your mind? ”

Jiang Wei came back to his senses and said embarrassedly, "I miss Brother." ”

Jiang Changhui smiled, touched her little head and said, "Just once a year, let him accompany you well when he comes back." ”

"Hmm." Jiang Wei mentioned his interest and drank afternoon tea together, fed the silkworms again, and dealt with the palace affairs, so he went to the Empress Dowager He to ask for peace.

When the two arrived at the Empress Dowager He's palace, Nanping was also there, seeing the two coming, the mother and daughter were both very happy, Mrs. He later left the two of them to have dinner together, but the Empress Dowager He occasionally coughed a few times during the meal, which made Jiang Changhui ask with concern: "Auntie, are you not feeling well?" ”

Empress Dowager He smiled: "It's not a big deal, it's just that I'm old, my body is useless, I blew some more wind yesterday, and my throat is a little uncomfortable today." ”

"Then you can call the Imperial Doctor to come and see you?" Jiang Changhui asked.

Empress Dowager He shook her head, "What is the name of the imperial doctor in the first month of the New Year, I asked people to boil some ginger soup, and after drinking it for a while, I went to sleep." ”

Jiang Changhui saw that the Empress Dowager He insisted, and he couldn't say anything, so he only ordered the Empress Dowager He's close female officer, and the Empress Dowager He must come and tell her if she has any discomfort, and the female official responded.

After coming out of the Empress Dowager He, the two walked for a while, Jiang Changhui was a little tired, and the continuous banquets these days made her a little unbearable, who had always been in good health.

"Auntie, let's go back and rest first." Jiang Wei said.

Jiang Changhui nodded, when the two arrived at the palace, they happened to see hundreds of palace maids carrying wooden boxes into the palace, she smiled at Jiang and said, "Do you still have to move things to live here?" ”

Jiang Wei said: "It's nothing, didn't you say last time that the candle I sent was easy to use?" I had some people move in again. ”

Jiang Changhui said: "Do you remember this? How did you make that candle so fragrant? ”

"I had people drip a lot of sesame oil in it." Jiang Wei said.

"I see, no wonder I wonder how this fragrance is like the sesame oil you sent." Jiang Changhui was stunned.

The two went back to the palace, and didn't do anything else, and started Jiang Changhui's favorite bath time of the day, Jiang Wei was young, and there were not many nursing steps, so she soaked in warm water, wore a hat on her head, and drank freshly squeezed juice, these fresh fruits were kept in the freezer, and the juice squeezed out was still a little cool, and it was slightly chilled in hot water, and it was most comfortable to drink in a bath.

When they had finished bathing, they were both drowsy, and the men had made their mattresses, and they almost fell asleep in bed.

Female Officer Yan stood at the window of the outer hall, looking thoughtfully at the guards who had been guarding outside the hall.

"What's wrong?" Gao Jingde walked behind her and asked.

"There's something strange about those people." Female Officer Yan said in a low voice, "Did something happen?" ”

Gao Jingde shook his head, he may know about the things in the Jiaofang Palace and the palace, but he doesn't have so long hands and feet in other places, "Xiao Jiuniang is accompanying the queen, it should be no problem." ”

Female official Yan thought about it, anyway, Xiao Jiuniang and the queen are here, and the guards outside are also allowed by the prince, so it should be no problem.

"Go and rest, tomorrow is a busy day." Gao Jingde said that the queen has been busy these days, and they are even busier.

Female Officer Yan rubbed the back of her neck, "I'm old, it's okay if I'm busy for a few days and don't sleep for a few days, but now it's not good." ”

The two laughed and slept in the outer room. Jiaofang Palace gradually quieted down, but this silence was broken in the middle of the night.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Changhui and Jiang Wei were awakened at the same time, and the person who came was the maid in the palace of the Empress Dowager He, and the maid panicked and said that the Empress Dowager He suddenly had a fever in the middle of the night, and she was semi-unconscious now.

Jiang Changhui was shocked, while sending someone to the Imperial Doctor's Department to call the Imperial Doctor, while getting up to change clothes, she said to Jiang Wei, who got up with her eyes rubbing: "You continue to sleep, I'll go over and have a look first." ”

"Auntie, I'll go with you." Jiang Wei said, maybe she was worried about Zhao Heng, or maybe she was disgusted with Zhao Min, she was not as anxious about Empress Dowager He's illness as Jiang Changhui.

Xu is because Zhao Heng and Zhao Yuan have ordered, now Jiang Changhui and Jiang Wei are out, except for a few handmaidens who are waiting closely, the rough maids have all changed, and even the ones who carry the lantern in front are Jiang Wei's female guards.

Jiang Changhui said to Jiang Wei in his shoulder: "I knew that I should have asked the imperial doctor to come at night." ”

"Auntie, don't worry, I'll know the situation when the imperial doctor comes." Jiang Wei said to Jiang Changhui, she always felt strange, although Empress Dowager He had a cough at dinner today, she looked in good spirits, how could it suddenly get worse? Or is it true that her suspicions have worsened?

"Bang-" The shoulders of the two were knocked off, Jiang Wei's body shook, and his body hit forward, "Hey! Jiang screamed in pain.

Jiang Changhui was startled, and hurriedly hugged his niece, "Ah Zhi, what's wrong with you?" ”

"It hurts—" Jiang Wei said with a crying voice.

"Little sins deserve death!" The little chamberlain who raised his shoulders hurriedly kowtowed to Jiang Changhui.

Bai Shao hurriedly stepped forward to touch Jiang Wei's shoulder, and as soon as he touched it, Jiang Wei screamed in pain again, and Bai Shao's face turned white all of a sudden, "It's broken!" It can't be a broken bone! ”

Jiang Changhui was really worried now, "Ah Zhi, where do you hurt?" "If Empress Dowager He is just worried about her identity, her niece's injury really makes her feel distressed.

"Here-" Jiang Wei pointed to his shoulder, "It doesn't hurt if you don't touch it, it hurts when you touch it, and you can't move." ”

Jiang Changhui frowned, Empress Dowager He is an elder, Ah Zhi is a junior, and it is clear which is more important in legislation, but let Jiang Changhui really leave her niece to see Empress Dowager He, she really can't do it.

Descending incense took the initiative to say: "Queen, if you don't let me and Uncle Gao go to visit the queen first, just say that we will go first, and the queen will arrive immediately." ”

At this time, Jiang Wei's voice was already low, but he snorted a few times from time to time, Jiang Changhui's heart ached, "You go first." "She always has to settle Ah Chi before she goes.

When Xiang Xiang and Gao Jingde rushed to the palace of the Empress Dowager He, the palace was already brightly lit, the palace maids came and went, and the close female officials around the Empress Dowager He were waiting for the two of them at the door, and they were slightly surprised to see that only Gao Jingde and Xiang Xiang came.

Gao Jingde said: "On the road, the little waiter walked carelessly, accidentally broke his shoulder, and injured the princess, Sanniang asked people to send the princess back to the palace first, and walked over by herself, let us rush to the queen mother to say goodbye, the incense is a doctor, and the doctor has not come yet, let her show the queen mother first." ”

The female official was sweating profusely when she saw that she was running with incense and Gao Jingde, and several small chamberlains and little palace maids who were holding the lamp beside her also kept panting, and hesitated slightly, "The Queen Mother just woke up for a while, just rested, you should be quiet." "Incense is known in the medical woman's palace, and her medical skills have also been recognized by the Tai Hospital.

Xiangxiang nodded, "Don't worry, I won't disturb the Queen Mother's rest." ”

Gao Jingde is an inner servant, it is impossible to enter the inner room, so he asked a little maid to carry the medicine box for himself, and followed the female officer to the inner room, there were several tall palace maids in the inner room, standing aside with low eyebrows, the Empress Dowager He was lying on the inside, the bed curtain was pulled down, the female official stepped forward, lifted the curtain and looked at it, and whispered: "The queen mother is still sleeping, you should be careful." ”

Xiangxiang nodded, took a step forward, knelt in front of the couch and carefully took the wrist of the Empress Dowager He.

The female officer suddenly stretched out her hand and took her neck, the incense seemed to be unnoticed, and when the female official's hand was almost touching her neck, the incense head was tilted to the side, a cold light flashed, and the female officer narrowly dodged away, but she couldn't avoid the little girl who didn't say a word to carry the medicine box, the little girl raised her hand, and a palm slashed to the neck of the female officer, and the female officer collapsed softly.

At this time, Xiangxiang first kicked over the small case on the side, and with a flash of his body, he jumped on the bed, and scuffled with the "Empress Dowager He" on the bed. And at this time, the palace maids in the room also moved, and these people also threw off their impaired clothes, and scuffled with Xiangxiang and the little girl, and several maids rushed in outside the door, and stopped the guards one by one.

Just when everyone was entangled together, there was a sound of arrows breaking through the air, and as soon as a man turned around, a cold light flashed in front of him, and he only felt a sharp pain in his left eye, and then he didn't know anything, and a crossbow arrow shot into his left eye, piercing deep into his brain.

"Whoosh-" There were several more sounds, and several of the guards who were fighting together were hit by arrows.

At this time, the Empress Dowager He's palace was already in chaos, and many of the guards who were ambushed in the palace and outside the palace were killed by a chain of crossbows before they had time to react, and of course, there were many palace attendants who wanted to escape because of panic, and many people didn't understand why there were crossbows here?

"Retreat! Withdraw! The guards in the Empress Dowager He's palace retreated one after another, and at this time, Descending Xiang and No. 2 dragged Gao Jingde, who was already stunned, out of the dormitory. Several female guards who came with them have been surrounded by those guards in the Empress Dowager He's palace, and all the guards' crossbows have been on the arrows that flicker in the cold light. Gao Jingde looked at this scene, his face suddenly turned pale, this scene was clearly for the queen and the crown princess, could it be-

No. 2 saw the soldiers who also raised their crossbows and shields, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and Gao Jingde looked at the smile and shuddered inexplicably.

"Qiang-" There was a small sound of the scythe, and a female guard put a candle on the scythe with a cold face, lit the candle, and several female guards took out the candle and lit it.

What do they want to do? Do you want to **? Gao Jingde was a little confused. The ground was already full of small boxes, these small boxes were wonderfully made, there were spaces, and the spaces were stuffed with small porcelain bottles, what did they do with small porcelain bottles? Gao Jingde is even more strange, where did these small boxes come from? Quite simply, it was dark, and the little boxes were brought in by the maids hidden under their skirts.

Number Two stepped forward, grabbed a porcelain vase, lit the cotton wool on it, and burned it in her hand for a while, she threw it out, "When-" The porcelain vase spread out at the guards, "Boom! All of a sudden, a raging fire broke out, and several unsuspecting guards were burned at once.

Before everyone could react, the porcelain vases fell to the ground one by one, instantly igniting a raging fire.

"Ahh

"Steady! Steady! The officers shouted hoarsely, but it was useless at this moment, the raging fire had already made them completely panicked.

At this time, there was another rain of crossbow arrows, and countless guards fell.

"Let's go!" Two kicked open the window and walked towards the area where the fire was weak.

Everyone's faces were covered with wet cloths, and they quickly burst out of the fire. Gao Jingde followed behind, holding the female officer tightly, he also has kung fu, at least he will not drag those female soldiers back, he also has a lot of strength, carrying a woman does not affect his actions too much, of course he is protected by female soldiers in the center. Some of the female soldiers threw those porcelain vases, some shot crossbows, and there were people covering them from time to time, and they retreated smoothly outside the palace wall.

As soon as the group retreated to the outside of the palace, they were greeted by about 100 fully armed female guards, and No. 2 asked the female official who had already woken up, "Where is the Empress Dowager He?" ”

The female official looked at Bai Shao indifferently and was silent.

Number Two ordered: "Throw all the pine oil into it, and burn this place on fire!" ”

"Yes!"

The female officer struggled desperately, "No! "Empress Dowager He is still in the palace!

"Then tell us, where is Empress Dowager He?" Number Two picked her up and said.

The female officer sneered, "The Queen Mother is protected by someone, you go in-"

"Smack!" No. 2 slapped half of the female official's face and swollen it, "If you burn the palace, I don't believe that the old woman won't come out!" ”

"You're committing the following crimes!" The female officer screamed.

Everyone looked at her with idiot eyes, and now they had done this, they were not committing crimes, they were going to kill people.

"Captain, what do we do now?" Female guards.

"Xiao Jiuniang said, everything is based on our safety, since there are people around the old woman, let's withdraw first." Number Two pointed to the rest of the bottles, "Throw them out and burn them down!" ”

"Yes."

"I tell you! I tell you the Queen Mother is there! The female officer hissed.

In addition to Jiaofang Palace, there is already chaos in the palace at the moment, Empress Dowager An and An Xiuyuan Palace have encountered the same thing in Empress Dowager He's palace, even worse than Empress Dowager He's palace, because Jiaofang Palace still needs guards, so each palace can only send about fifty people over, these female soldiers were raised by Jiang Wei little by little, and they have long had feelings, this kind of thing is nine deaths and one life, she thought how to ensure their safety?

She thought about it, and thought of three methods, the first thing to talk about here is Jiang Wei's background, Jiang Wei is very middle two, saying that she is so middle two, this is spoiled, and the second is also due to her brother's words and deeds...... Compared with Jiang Wei, who can only be willful and not very lethal, Jiang Wei's super high IQ and unreasonable brother is a real bear child, this baby made soil explosives, got dust explosion tests, and made incendiary bombs before Jiang Wei was born. He didn't go to military school later, because Jiang's mother was pregnant at that time, and he vowed to love his younger brothers and sisters, and his good brother who grew up with his younger brothers and sisters refused to apply for the military academy.

After Jiang Wei was born, the eldest brother was already a twenty-four filial brother, and all the youth and absurdity had passed, but his love for military affairs had not changed. In the young Jiang Wei's mind, his brother is the most capable person in the world except for his father, and he can do anything! Jiang Wei never got tired of hearing these bedside stories, and when she thought of lethal weapons, she thought of her brother's bedside stories.

The first thing she thought of was gunpowder, but gunpowder was not easy to handle, dust explosion was theoretically feasible, but it was very difficult to operate in practice, and her eldest brother had tried a small spoonful of flour many times before succeeding, and the only feasible thing was an incendiary bomb. She has pure alcohol, she also has turpentine, she has all kinds of oils! She still has cotton! She has a variety of porcelain bottles for wine! She had all these things transported to the palace, and secretly tested them in the wasteland, and when she felt that it was feasible, she let the female guards get their hands on them. She mentioned this to Zhao Heng, but Zhao Heng was too busy, so she agreed to know that she had this thing to defend herself, and asked her to pay attention to safety, but she didn't look at it, and she didn't know what the incendiary bomb that Jiang Wei compared to Jiang Wei meant. However, Tang Ben watched it once and was shocked, this time when Zhao Heng left, he also let people bring a lot of them, anyway, no one knows what these things are.

Those crossbows were also dispersed and transported to the palace, these female guards had already trained how to install crossbows as quickly as possible, plus the support of ginger micro incendiary bombs, their eyes were red with excitement! Molotov cocktails were thrown one by one, and soon the houses were on fire, and countless people escaped from the houses and died under the crossbow arrows. By the time Su Ying was explaining the cause of the incident to Jiang Changhui, Empress Dowager An, Empress Dowager He and An Xiuyuan had already been carried over by the female guards, and there were a few guards who had not been affected by their lives.

"Jiang Changhui, Jiang Wei, you guys are crazy! Let us go! Empress Dowager An shouted angrily.

Jiang Wei didn't speak, and Jiang Changhui said, "Tie them all up." ”

"You dare!" An Xiuyuan kept struggling, and An Zhaoyi kept hanging her head and not making a sound, "You guys are crazy!" How dare you burn the palace! ”

Jiang Changhui looked at Jiang Wei in confusion, she hadn't been out of the road since she hit Jiang Wei and shouted pain, I don't know what happened outside the road, Jiang Wei didn't know what happened, she was the same as Jiang Changhui, she was settled in the inner room and never went out, when she heard An Xiuyuan's words, she said angrily: "You are all going to kill me, what else do I dare not do!" "Bai Shao said that there are at least more than a thousand forbidden troops outside, where do the two weak women need so many forbidden troops! Zhao Min clearly wants to kill people! He even killed his own son, what could a wife and a daughter-in-law not bear to kill! They've all killed, and she's not allowed to defend herself!

"Aren't you afraid of the saint coming back?" An Xiuyuan screamed: "You are not afraid of extermination!" ”

Jiang Changhui looked at them coldly, what is the difference between the current and the extermination? Zhao Min even made a move with Ah Zhi, would he still let go of the Jiang family and Goro?

"No, it won't." Jiang Wei interjected.

Jiang Changhui and everyone looked at Jiang Wei at the same time.

Jiang Wei smiled brightly at everyone, "If the saint comes back, then the palace will be gone!" She sent someone to bring in a lot of flour, if Zhao Hengzhen failed, she would directly let people poke the flour bag and cause a dust explosion, she didn't believe that anyone could dodge, if they wanted to die, everyone would die together, and if they died together, yes, yes, they would be able to escape! At this time, Jiang Wei didn't think about what the consequences would be if she really made a fuss.

"I don't believe it! You're not an immortal, can you burn down such a big palace? An Xiuyuan sneered.

Jiang Wei wanted to explain that so much flour couldn't fry a palace, but it was enough to achieve her goal, but then she thought about it and waved her little hand, "She talks too much!" "Isn't the main reason for the villain's failure after the most difficult to talk too much? She couldn't talk too much.

Jiang Changhui seconded, "There are indeed a little more words. "She can't be trying to stall, is she?

"Jiang Changhui, I'm all of you!" Empress Dowager He said angrily.

Jiang Wei and Jiang Changhui glanced at each other, and Jiang Wei proposed, "Auntie, why don't we tie it with silk?" An Xiuyuan is tied with hemp rope? "That's how you can tell the difference.

Jiang Changhui agreed with Jiang Wei's proposal, so the four of them were tied up. An Zhaoyi raised her head and asked, "Empress, don't you wonder why the saint is like this?" ”

Jiang Changhui didn't even look at An Zhaoyi, to this day, what else does she have to say?

Bai Shao and No. 2 were already standing at the door, and Jiang Changhui motioned for the two to come in, "Say it." ”

Bai Shao hesitated for a moment, but still told all the interrogations, "Those people originally wanted to put the armored crossbows and spears prepared for the queen and the crown princess into the East Palace, and said——"

"Is it true that the prince intends to force the palace?" Jiang Changhui scoffed.

Jiang Wei stretched out her aunt's hand, the saddest thing now is her aunt, right? The husband and son met each other, "Auntie, don't be sad, he's going to kill us-" Then let's strike first!

Jiang Changhui touched her head and smiled faintly, "I'm not sad." She turned to ask Bai Shao, "Have the sergeants outside dealt with it?" ”

Bai Shao said: "We didn't have enough manpower, so we only dealt with a few palace rooms, and we found people out and returned them." ”

Jiang Wei said: "Safety first, close the Jiaofang Palace, if someone dares to rush in, throw a small porcelain bottle, don't be afraid of waste, we still have a lot left!" Jiang Wei is serious, her alcohol is prepared for Lin Xi, she is always worried that Lin Xi will fight a big battle over there, so she has prepared a lot, and she will send a year's amount at a time, she has used all this year's amount, as well as turpentine and various oils, this is the power of the little local tyrant. Because the crossbow arrows are too sensitive, it is not very convenient to smuggle them into the palace, and it is convenient to have no alcohol and oil.

"Yes." Bai Shao replied solemnly, "We swear to protect the safety of the queen and the crown princess. ”

This night in the palace was very unpeaceful, first of all, the three palace rooms were lit up with a raging fire, and then there was a sudden appearance of the forbidden army, many palace concubines and palace maids fled in a hurry, and the guards who were ordered to guard the Empress Dowager He, An Xiuyuan and the Empress Dowager An had tried to rush into the Jiaofang Palace, but before they got close, they were hit by the rain of burning bombs, the original forbidden army was only about a thousand people, the guards died a batch, and now a large number of people have died, scattered and scattered There are more than 300 left, and there are female guards and crossbow guards on the wall, and the morale is discharged, and everyone does not dare to rush forward, This is pure death! Anyway, the emperor ordered them to control the queen and the crown princess, and now it can be regarded as another degree of control!

Jiang Wei and Jiang Changhui didn't sleep all night, and when the sky was just dawning, everyone heard the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, Jiang Wei and Jiang Changhui looked at each other, and the two subconsciously clasped each other's hands.

Zhao Heng tightly grabbed the reins in his hand, rode his horse and galloped towards the palace, Jiang Rin, Jiang Ling, Lin Xi, and Zhao Yuan followed behind him, and everyone was anxious. There is no danger in the palace, this is what everyone believes, Zhao Min will never move Jiang Changhui and Jiang Wei, two weak women, what is there to deal with? It's a big deal to imprison the two of them, so everyone was relatively relieved when they left, and they also sent someone to guard secretly, but everyone didn't expect that there was no chaos in Shunling, but it was in the palace that was in chaos.

Everyone rode their horses on Suzaku Avenue in complete disregard, and when they rushed into the harem, they saw thick smoke billowing everywhere, and when palace people came in and out from time to time, everyone's bodies shook subconsciously, especially Jiang Rin clenched his fists and coughed lightly, and there was a hidden sweet taste in his throat.

"Weiwei—Weiwei!" Zhao Heng turned over and dismounted, "Weiwei!" Come out of here! Auntie! He ran towards Jiaofang Palace regardless of the obstruction of his guards, and Lin Xi and Zhao Yuan followed him closely.

Jiang Wei's eyes lit up when he heard Zhao Heng's voice, "Auntie, Brother is back!" ”

Jiang Changhui wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

Jiang Wei was about to rush out of the city, when he suddenly thought of a very important event, "Bai Shao, hurry!" Spray water into the air! "There is fire everywhere, and if it really explodes, she is definitely the most tragic person in the world!
