Chapter 234: The Queen Mother Collapses
The sixteenth day of the first month of the ninth year of the Xuanli calendar.
The sky is low, and black clouds are pressing down on the city.
This morning, Fu Xiaoguan didn't get up for morning exercise for the first time, and he woke up naturally from his sleep.
Although he was not drunk last night, when he sent Dong Shulan back to Fu's mansion, there was already a rooster crowing.
After he bathed, he hastily drank a bowl of red date and lotus seed porridge, thought for a moment, thinking that his father should arrive in Jinling today, and thinking that those assassins were locked up in the Jinling Mansion last night, and thinking that Yan Xiaolou should go to see if he was injured for him.
There is no way to do it!
I have to pick up my father first, after all, the proposal is the big thing at the moment.
made up his mind and was about to go out, but he almost collided with Yu Wendao.
Yu asked and came in a hurry, with a smell of blood, Fu Xiaoguan looked fixedly, and the blood stains on this guy's white clothes were like plum blossoms.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't ask, I'll tell you, bring me your clothes, and I'll bathe in you."
"No, I'm going to go out."
Yu asked and stared at Fu Xiaoguan, his eyes froze, "Hurry up, stay and follow me into the palace, something big has happened!" ”
Fu Xiaoguan's heart sank, turned around and walked in with Yu Wendao, arranged for Yu Wendao to take a bath, and then he called Chunxiu.
"Xiu'er, the young master can't get out of his body today, the master is coming to Beijing, you will take a dozen or so family members out of the city now, go to the dock to wait for the master, and take him to the house."
"Okay, slave and maid will go."
"Wait......" Fu Xiaoguan thought for a moment, he had never seen Yu ask so seriously, thinking that it was an extremely serious matter, "If I don't come back today, you can tell the master that I am on duty in the court." ”
Chunxiu was also stunned, the young master hadn't been so serious for a long time, could it be that something big had happened?
She didn't ask anything, she just nodded very seriously, turned to leave, and Su Su, who was sitting on the side, listened, "I'll go with Chunxiu." ”
"Good!"
Fu Xiaoguan and Su Jue sat opposite each other, and Su Jue talked about last night's incident.
"I didn't have any harvest from Shuiyue Nunnery, there were many fires in Jinling City last night, I also went to take a look, and killed a few people, all of them were green forest bandits. Because the five princes had already made arrangements, the loss was not big. ”
The result of Shuiyuean was expected by Fu Xiaoguan.
He didn't know who the person in the Shuiyue Nunnery was a few days ago, and his speculation was that the person was probably also looking for something in the Shuiyue Nunnery, because that place had been exposed, and it was impossible for Yuhuatai to use that place as an information transit place.
What exactly are they looking for?
Fu Xiaoguan was thinking about the secrets of Yuhuatai, or the list, or even the records of intelligence exchanges.
Since Mrs. Bunian was able to leave with the plan of the cicada molting her shell, she was worried about Yuhuatai's pursuit.
With Yuhuatai's strength, she is not sure to get out, so those secrets should be hidden in the Water Moon Temple...... It seems that he still has to take the time to go there, it's not that he doesn't believe Su Jue, but it involves the arrangement of the organs, he has some experience in this, so he might as well try his luck.
"In addition, what I want to tell you is that most of the people who entered the capital last night to set fire to it were Liu Jiumei's henchmen when she used to walk the rivers and lakes."
Fu Xiaoguan frowned, so the people who assassinated him in Lan Tingji were also this Liu Jiumei's subordinates?
"The purpose of their arson was to rob the prison, and they wanted to rescue Liu Sanbian, I don't know if they succeeded?"
"I was about to tell you......" Yu asked and walked out in Fu Xiaoguan's cyan robe, "they succeeded!" ”
Fu Xiaoguan was taken aback, and Yu asked again: "Not only did they successfully rescue Liu Sanbian and those two King Kongs, but they also killed those martial arts bandits that you set up a bureau outside the Comet Mansion to capture. ”
What the hell!
Those people were escorted to the Jinling Mansion by Huo Huaijin's guards, first locked up in the prison of the Mansion Office, and then taken to the prison of the Criminal Department - this means that those people have invaded the prison of the Criminal Department!
Do they have the ability to do that?
Looking at Fu Xiaoguan's doubts, Yu Wenwen's eyebrows raised, "They have internal responses, but I didn't catch them, according to my opinion...... This matter is absolutely inseparable from the four princes! ”
"Why?"
"Think about it, you let go of the two people caught outside the Comet's Mansion, and the place where they went was Yuhuatai. These bandits ran from Shuiyuean to the Comet's Mansion, and Shuiyuean was originally a liaison place in Yuhuatai, so they must be from Yuhuatai. ”
"Those people of Liu Jiumei are a group of rabble, and there are many people, and it is impossible for them to break through the defense of the prison of the Criminal Department, but Yuhuatai has this strength."
"Think about it again, since they rescued Liu Sanbian and the three of them, why did they kill those twenty people who were already abolished? Because their life means nothing to Yuhuatai. In addition, the Criminal Department did not try these twenty people, which means that there is no evidence to prove that they are the people of the Four Princes, so they must also die. ”
Fu Xiaoguan suddenly looked up at the sky and asked, "When did those bandits leave Beijing with Liu Sanbian and the three of them?" ”
"It's about the end of the day."
It's time now...... It's too late!
"What do you think of?" Yu asked.
"Liu Sanbian's group of people is also dead."
Yu was stunned for a moment, understood what Fu Xiaoguan meant, and was suddenly a little annoyed.
It is impossible for the fourth prince to let these people of Liu Jiumei leave Shangjing!
Since those people are in collusion with Yuhuatai, there must be people in it, and the four princes used these people to create chaos in Shangjing, and also used these people to act as cannon fodder to attack the prison of the Criminal Department.
The purpose of the four princes is only one - to extinguish the mouth!
first destroyed the twenty subordinates in the prison of the Criminal Department, and then destroyed this group of Green Forest bandits who participated in this matter, so far, there is no clue that can involve him.
"No wonder the people of Qingfeng Tower didn't find the people of Yuhuatai that night, they had actually dispersed, and some of them must have left the city and lurked...... What a means! Yu asked with a sigh, and finally made a mistake.
Fu Xiaoguan thought of the assassin last night again, and he said to Su Jue: "Senior brother, there were seven assassins imprisoned in the Jinling Mansion Prison last night, you can help me keep an eye on it." ”
Su Jue nodded, he understood what it meant to stare at a point, if these seven people were also related to Yuhuatai and Liu Jiumei, then this was the only clue.
He said goodbye and left, Su Rou embroidered the mandarin duck and opened her thin eyes and looked at Fu Xiaoguan.
This kid is thoughtful, and he is indeed very powerful, but unfortunately he can't train his internal strength - he estimates that it is difficult to practice, there are so many bad things all day long, how can he have time to meditate and cultivate!
"Something happened in the palace, you follow me into the palace now."
"What the hell is going on?"
"Queen Mother, collapse!"
Fu Xiaoguan chuckled in his heart, got up and left the Fu Mansion with Yu Wendao, and went straight to the palace.
……
……
A snowflake fell and landed on the tip of Fu Xiaoguan's nose, he looked up at the sky, and the lead-gray clouds did not flutter again, which was a sign that there would be another heavy snowfall.
The doors of the palace have been opened, but the red lanterns and flowers and trees of the previous night in the palace are gone, only a few traces have been missing in the corners.
The two of them walked in the palace, neither of them spoke, but their hearts were extremely heavy.
Fu Xiaoguan remembered that Gonggong Wei flew over Weiyang Lake last night and asked him to compose a poem, thinking that this was one of the old queen mother's wishes, and I don't know if the old queen mother saw it.
Regarding the understanding of the Queen Mother, Fu Xiaoguan is indescribable.
Because of the matter of Prince Comet, it was not pleasant in the Cining Palace at the beginning.
Yu Wenyun said that even if there was no matter of Prince Coma, the Queen Mother would still want to meet him, but it was the ending of Lin Daiyu in a dream in the Red Mansion.
She didn't like the ending, she thought that even in the book, it should be a little more beautiful.
But on the evening of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, she asked the actors to sing the princess of the province, and said those extremely heavy words to warn the officials, especially the six major gates.
She hoped that this Yu Dynasty would be better, and she seemed to know that the current Yu Dynasty was not too good.
A few days ago, Yu Wenwen also had a conversation with him, saying that if you want to please the Queen Mother, you should talk more about farming with her. Before she could say a word about this farming, she only gave her a handful of grain and a note on the Queen Mother's birthday, and she didn't even know if she was happy, but she was actually separated from each other on this day.
I saw that she looked pretty good that day, but it was only two days...... Fu Xiaoguan sighed in his heart, it was really impermanent!
It is getting closer and closer to Cining Palace, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more solemn.
There were many palace maids and little eunuchs who were running lightly, and there were also ministers who came and went in a hurry, especially Fu Xiaoguan After seeing the supervision of Qin Tianjian, he understood that something had happened.
So at this moment, it must be Yan Beixi who is presiding over state affairs, but it is just the death of the Queen Mother, why hasn't Your Majesty made an order yet?
Yu Wendao took Fu Xiaoguan to the side room, changed into plain clothes inside, and came to the main gate of Cining Palace.
There was the sound of crying inside, there was the smell of fireworks, and when he stepped into the door, he saw a group of people kneeling on the ground, Yu asked and pulled Fu Xiaoguan, and the two of them also knelt behind.
Fu Xiaoguan quietly looked up, and saw Shang Guifei leading a few concubines wearing linen and filial piety were burning paper money one by one, dozens of Taoist priests were sitting cross-legged on the platform, chanting something in their mouths, occasionally beating two small chime gongs and drums, and an elderly Taoist priest holding a whisk in his hand led dozens of Taoist priests around a big bed shrouded in white gauze slowly, with yellow paper spilled in his hands, and from time to time he also bowed to the eight directions, which should be doing a dojo.
The windows were opened twice, and the wind blew in; The prayer flags and white silk inside fluttered in the wind, and the white veil on the big bed was lifted a little, and Fu Xiaoguan vaguely saw the old man lying on the bed.
His gaze searched the crowd, and then he saw Yu Wenyun's back.
She also knelt in a group of princes and grandsons, her shoulders twitched slightly, and she couldn't stop feeling sad when she thought about it.
Just as Fu Xiaoguan was looking at Yu Wenyun's back, a young man there suddenly turned his head to look at him.
The four eyes are facing each other, there is no friction, just one glance.
The Four Princes ask the book!
Fu Xiaoguan and the Four Princes have never met, but they confirmed each other because of this glance!
