Chapter 188
There was a suspicion in her heart, Jiang Ruyin looked at the last letter more and more she looked at it, she was very familiar with the emperor's handwriting, compared with the previous ones, there was no difference but it seemed deliberate.
The emperor would not make such a joke with her.
The more Jiang Ruyin thought about it, the more uneasy she became, there were so many ships on the southern tour, it was impossible for there to be any fight on the way, even if there were, the news would have been transmitted back to Lin'an City a long time ago, how could it be so quiet.
If something really happens, it can only be when you get off the boat and go on patrol.
Jiang Ruyin immediately ordered Qingdong to find the map, according to the place that the emperor said in the previous letters, the pen and ink circled the point, the letter that was three days late before was to Shuocheng near the southern end, and the next point should be Xique City under Shuocheng, which is already very close to the area where Nanban and Dajin are connected, Jiang Ruyin calculated the journey of this boat, when writing the last letter, the emperor should be in Xique City, Shuocheng's letter has been a day late, that is to say, if there is an accident, the emperor may have had an accident when he was in Shuocheng.
All she could think of was that the letter was intercepted, so it was a day late, and then imitated the emperor's handwriting and sent it once every two days, then this person must have understood the emperor's habits these days, either close to him, or an official with him.
Shuocheng quickly sent a letter to Lin'an City, and it would take three days to go day and night, Jiang Ruyin's hand holding the pen trembled, and a few people quickly flashed in her mind, and ordered Qingdong, "Immediately announce that Jiang University Scholar will enter the palace." ”
Jiang Ruyin's hand did not stop, took the letter and quickly wrote three letters for Zixia to send out, not afraid of accidents, just in case, Prince Ping sent his relatives, and the southern tour took away some of the officials, if something really happened, the current court can be easily captured.
Master Jiang quickly entered the palace, and between father and daughter, Jiang Ruyin didn't need to explain anything to him, and directly said the matter of the letter, "Father, the second brother is on a southern tour with him, can there be a letter back." ”
After Jiang Ruyin finished speaking, she asked again, and Master Jiang also felt that something was wrong, "Your second brother will send a letter back in seven or eight days, and this time it has been eleven or twelve days." ”
"If I'm not mistaken, the third young master of the Cheng family also went." Jiang Ruyin's heart sank, "I don't know what the Cheng family is doing." ”
"Father, if the emperor is injured or accidentally has an accident, even if there is a conflict with Nanban, this letter will not be sent back so on time." sent it back on time, wasn't it because he was afraid that Jiang Ruyin would be suspicious on the side of Lin'an City, so he wanted to cover it up and send it over in imitation of the emperor's handwriting and content.
"How are you going to be?" Master Jiang can contact Cheng Taifu and others when he leaves the palace, but if something happens to the palace here, it still depends on herself.
"Prince Ping hasn't come back yet, and now in the palace and Lin'an City, who can mobilize troops in a big way."
"If you have this right, it should be the Sixth Prince and Tang Guogong." Hearing Tang Guogong, Jiang Ruyin frowned slightly, this person is also righteous and evil, Su Rili is a perverse, and he fights viciously, which is basically a policy of killing and robbing everything.
"Father, you go to the Six Princes' Mansion for me first and ask the Six Princes for some people." Jiang Ruyin thought about it and said to Master Jiang...
The palace mother of Zhaoyang Palace unconsciously changed a batch, Jiang Ruyin waited for the letter to arrive two days later, and she already knew in her heart, whether she came to the emperor or not, there was already an accident, and her father sent a letter back to the palace late at night after her father went back, and the Cheng family, the third young master Cheng had no news for many days.
But she still had some hope in her heart, and hope was just a joke.
She can tell her father about such a thing, but she can't tell the eldest princess of the Queen Mother, the court is peaceful, and all the good news that comes back from the southern tour is not credible.
I couldn't sleep for two nights in a row, and when it was close to the early hours of the morning, Jiang Ruyin fell asleep groggyly, but before dawn, she woke up from a nightmare.
Mother Xu boiled soothing tea to no avail, Jiang Ruyin sat directly until dawn, ate some breakfast, and sat there waiting for the letter to arrive.
It was almost noon when the letter arrived.
After Jiang Ruyin took it apart and looked at it, after a moment, she ordered in a deep voice, "Go, His Royal Highness King Cheng, please come." ”
After a while, Qingqiu brought someone over, Jiang Ruyin looked at him and said calmly, "Lu'er, your father may have had an accident." ”
Su Yanxun was calmer than Jiang Ruyin imagined, but he was stunned for a moment, and Su Yanxun immediately thought of what to do next.
"Your second uncle and the third young master of the Cheng family have no news, if there is no news, it is good news, the DPRK and China may rise at any time, and there is still a solution to cholera, but this life must be kept first." There was an accident in the southern tour, and now the prince has not been established, to put it bluntly, it is still for that little thing, someone wants to take this opportunity to start, the emperor dares to do this, can the three of them in the palace still have a way to live, "The mother concubine now wants you to move out of the palace and live in the Chengwang Mansion." ”
"Nope." Su Yanxun immediately objected, "Erchen is gone, what should I do with my mother." ”
Jiang Ruyin's face was solemn, "Now is not the time to say this, the more people in the palace, the more difficult it is to take care of it, you are in the Chengwang Mansion, you have your grandfather and they protect you, once the palace is besieged, you can't get out." This bit of evidence is not enough to convince the Queen Mother, if the Queen Mother does not wake up, it will arouse suspicion, and the gains outweigh the losses, "You will get married next month, and it is common to move out now." ”
"Then you and your brother."
Jiang Ruyin comforted him, "We are in Zhaoyang Palace, it will be fine, the palace guards only listen to your father's orders, and no one will command them." ”…
Jiang Ruyin didn't want to waste a little time, so she asked Brother Rong to go out of the palace to Chengwangfu in the afternoon, and the next morning, she sent his things over.
At this time, the palace was still the same as usual, Jiang Ruyin was handling palace affairs, and she was also preparing for the upcoming wedding of King Cheng.
Three days later, before dawn, there was a sudden commotion outside Zhaoyang Palace, Zi Xia came in and said that someone wanted to break into the palace but was stopped by the palace mother, and walked to the palace gate after finishing the makeup, and the four palace mothers stopped more than a dozen palace mothers who appeared outside, all of them were thick-bodied, but when they saw Jiang Ruyin who came out, they obviously didn't expect that the Zhaoyang Palace would be so difficult, and they couldn't get in for half an hour.
One of the palace ladies shouted at Jiang Ruyin, "In the name of the queen's mother, please ask the noble concubine to go to Jingren Palace." ”
"The queen is still grounded, what kind of people are you, dare to come to Zhaoyang Palace in the name of the queen to bring people." Here, Mother Xu scolded sharply, "Come on, tie up all these people for me." ”
There were more than a dozen palace maids outside, and more than a dozen palace maids walked out behind Mother Xu, all of them with solemn expressions, and went directly to the palace gate, without waiting for those palace ladies to say anything, they directly subdued these dozen people.
No matter how strong the palace mother is, she can't resist the well-trained people who can punch and kick, and after subduing the people, she was directly dragged into the Zhaoyang Palace, tied the rope, and threw them in the courtyard.
"Where is the Empress now!" Jiang Ruyin looked at these more than a dozen palace grandmothers, Qingqiu, who went out to inquire about the news, came back, Concubine De and the third princess of Yihe Palace were taken to Jingren Palace, and Changxi Palace couldn't get in, but Concubine Shu was trapped inside and couldn't get out, and she was under house arrest in disguise, and there are now several grandmothers guarding outside Shouhe Palace, and it seems that they have also entered.
After listening to this, Jiang Ruyin no longer needed these people to tell her what was going on, so she told Mother Xu to take care of Brother Zhan, and took Zixia and a few palace maids to Chengqian Palace directly.
And at this moment, there is also chaos in the court.
All the ministers were announced into the palace, and after arriving at the Yuming Palace, they saw that everyone was there, looking at each other and not knowing what was going on, but Zhao Guogong stood up and suddenly said that the southern tour was attacked, the emperor's whereabouts are unknown, it has been a few days, and the news that he has been killed, in order not to cause fear and chaos, he did not announce it to the public, and now the top priority is to choose an heir who can stabilize the hearts of the people, and when the news comes out, the people of the world can rest assured.
The attack on the southern tour is enough to surprise everyone, for Zhao Guogong said that the emperor was killed, most people are suspicious, Jiang Daxue and Feng Jinhou watched them coldly and continued to show, looking back at the door of the palace, General Tang led the troops to break in directly, behind him was a queen in a gorgeous costume, next to the queen was the five princes, the funny thing is that these five princes are wearing a golden python robe, a golden python robe, only the prince can wear it.
The queen looked at these people in the court, and then took the hands of the five princes, and walked directly towards the dragon seat, and General Tang's people escorted them all the way to the dragon chair, as if they were my escort.
The queen stood on it and looked at the ministers below, "The emperor's life and death are uncertain, the government cannot be abolished, and when the news spreads, if there is no one in the palace to stabilize the people's hearts, it will inevitably cause civil unrest. ”
They didn't expect anything to come out and out, and they could expect that something would happen in the palace, but they didn't expect that this hand would come from the queen and the Zhao family, and General Tang was also involved.
In the end, how long have you been planning in secret, taking advantage of the southern tour to attack the emperor, and then forcibly setting up the prince in the palace, if the emperor can't come back, then the throne will naturally be enthroned by the prince.
The palace is now full of General Tang's army, and the people of the six princes outside the palace are blocked from entering, and the edict of the prince can still be issued by the queen mother, and the queen and the Zhao family are going to force the palace.
There was silence in the court, and then a minister stood up and pointed directly at the five princes, "The biological mother is a criminal concubine, the maternal grandfather's family is a criminal family, the queen mother, you are still grounded, how can you do this lord for the emperor, the southern tour was attacked, not only did the palace send someone to rescue, the queen is still here to set up the prince to seize power, the queen, you can be punished!" ”
General Tang walked over and approached the minister, the minister took a step back, General Tang drew his sword and cut off the minister's head, and immediately the blood rushed away, and several ministers around saw this scene, and directly sat on the ground in fright, with blood splashing on their faces.
The beheaded minister took several steps back and fell to the ground with a thud, bleeding from his neck.
General Tang walked over, wiped the sword on the minister's clothes, wiped the blood stains, raised his head and looked at everyone, the smile on his face was hideous, "Who else has an opinion." ”
