126 Ling Huan forced the palace
Hearing that the family of three was all detained, Lan Qingyue panicked. For a while, he had to rush back to Gyeonggi alone, if he hadn't been stopped by Lao Xiong and Menghu, I was afraid that he would have gone far by now.
The scholar also comforted on the side, since the Nine Emperor Princes gathered these ministers together, they must have some plans, then they will not be in danger of their lives for the time being, and instead of worrying in their hearts, it is better to make some substantive decisions.
Lan Qingyue's heart slowly settled, she only clenched the emergency report in her hand, the coldness on her face was like the ice of the cold winter wax moon, her mind turned rapidly, and some questions that she couldn't think of clearly became clear.
No wonder the attack of the thieves in the Western Continent came strangely this time, and he withdrew his troops in such a hurry, he had always wondered in his heart, but now he knew that this was the case, so that the matter of the assassins and the spies in the army in the past few days also had a mystery.
All kinds of signs pointed directly at the Nine Emperor Princes, and he only guessed that the mastermind behind this was a noble person in Gyeonggi, but he never expected that it was the Nine Emperor Princes. Although he didn't know the reason, the matter would certainly not be simple.
Presumably, the collusion between the Nine Emperor Princes and the Western Continent thieves has not been a day or two, but he never expected that he would be so disregarding each other for the throne, and before leaving Beijing, he heard that the emperor was going to set up a crown prince soon, and the most controversial was the three princes and the eight princes, and the Nine Emperors were stimulated by this incident to commit such a crime.
Half of the Eighth Prince's troops were taken by him to the Great Wilderness Mountain Range, even if they rushed back to rescue, the road was far away, and the army was afraid that it would take a few days, but in this way, I don't know what kind of variables would happen, the Nine Emperors were good at scheming, and they didn't need a single soldier to contain them thousands of miles away, and it was too late to come back to help.
The Western Continent thieves are willing to give up such a city that has been disputed for many years, it must be because the Nine Emperor Princes promised them a more abundant reward, otherwise how could the Western Continent thieves be willing to help him so much. I'm afraid that their hard work will be in vain, and they gave others to make wedding dresses for no reason.
The power of Yan Guifei's mother's family was also used by him, and two-thirds of the economic lifeline of the entire empire was controlled by him, and a move would be in vain to disrupt the country. Ling Huan did this, it was tantamount to luring a wolf into the house, if he really succeeded in his conspiracy, he was afraid that the former status of the Dongling Empire would no longer be there.
There is also the military power in the hands of Prince Ling Xiao, but for some reason, Prince Ling Xiao actually colluded with the Nine Emperor Princes. Over the years, the emperor's brothers have either died of illness or been imprisoned, and there are only a few three or two people left, and Prince Lingxiao and the emperor's mother are one of them.
Xu is blood relationship is particularly strong, the emperor treats Prince Lingxiao very well, and over the years, he has been rewarded with a lot of good things. Every time someone comes from the state, Prince Lingxiao must be the person appointed by the emperor to welcome guests, and I don't know how much oil and water he has gotten in this way.
The scholars sat beside Lan Qingyue and didn't disturb his contemplation, but their faces were full of the same worries as him. Ling Huan is very well prepared, and they also have family members in Gyeonggi, so I don't know if they have been implicated. The joy of recovering the city disappeared, and the entire Commander's Mansion was like a layer of frost.
The chairs in the Commander's Mansion seemed to be sprinkled with nails, and a group of big men were restless here, and even more people walked around the room, dazzling people, racking their brains to find a solution, but their brains were still blank.
The longer the delay lasts, the worse the situation becomes, although these detained ministers have not been in danger of their lives, it is difficult to guarantee the time for a long time, and the Nine Emperor Sons and Dogs jumped over the wall in a hurry, doing something unfavorable to them.
Two days ago, it was night, and Gyeonggi, which had been noisy for a day, gradually calmed down. However, this calm did not take long for the sound of horses' hooves to be broken, and more and more soldiers wrapped in armor gradually touched the direction of the palace by taking advantage of the dark night.
Because of the dead of night, the princes and ministers rested in their mansions, until the palace was completely controlled by the three princes' men and horses, and even flies could not fly out, and the emperor knew what his son had done.
When this son stood in front of him in armor, the tip of his sword pointed at his throat, he was still not confident that what was happening before him was real. Because Yan Guifei is favored, Su Rili is also extremely doting on this son, and it is not too much to say that he responds to requests. It's just that how can the favor of him be exchanged for his sword?
Some important officials in the court were brought to the palace one after another, and some were forcibly dragged from the concubines even if they were not dressed properly, and their faces were full of malaise; and some people were sleepy-eyed and didn't know what was going on, Lan Xiangye, General Zhai and others were also among them, and even a few princes were also brought to the main hall one after another.
They were sleeping soundly at home, and before they knew it, they broke into the house with a number of neatly crowned and hated guards, and for a moment, the chickens and dogs jumped in the houses of the ministers, and the people and animals were uneasy.
The emperor sat on a high dragon chair, Dequan was watched by several soldiers, and a few of Ling Huan's cronies were guarding the emperor's side. The emperor's face was full of gloom, and he obviously didn't expect this ninth son to do such a rebellious thing. The bright yellow candle flame hit his face, and half of it was hidden in the darkness.
A few days ago, in the bedroom of Yan Guifei, the emperor was lying on the bed, Yan Guifei was only wearing a single dress, snuggling up to the emperor, the look on her face was half satisfied, half coquettish, the matter of the bed was just over, and there was still a strong musk fragrance in the air.
In the past few days, Yan Guifei has come up with Xin tricks again, and for several days, the emperor has stayed with her, which has attracted some words in the harem. Yan Guifei tried her best to serve the emperor comfortably, and her big hand was on the softness of Yan Guifei's chest, and the emperor was a little distracted.
Feeling the change in the emperor, Yan Guifei stroked the emperor's waist with a little dissatisfaction, took it with her bare hands, and began to make waves again. The strength of the Emperor's palm gradually increased. Yan Guifei turned around and lay on the emperor, and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, how can Huan'er be idle all day?"
It is said that the bedside wind is the most terrible, the emperor was in a good mood at the time, and Yan Guifei's ability in the past few days, he didn't think about this request, he only promised that Yan Guifei would definitely arrange a satisfactory errand for Ling Huan tomorrow. This time, there were constantly gasps in the palace of Yan Guifei, and the emperor behaved fiercely, such a thing had never happened in other concubines.
Looking at Yan Guifei, who was tired and lying on the bed like a puddle of spring water, the emperor was very satisfied, and he also took the things mentioned by Yan Guifei last night to heart. It was only half a day's work to arrange this matter. He is indeed an enviable messenger, in charge of the Imperial Guards.
