Chapter 113: The High Places Are Unbearable
When the sky was about to dawn, Yun Feiyang Fang fell asleep in a hazy manner, but a deacon and eunuch hurriedly reported outside: "Commander Lei asked to see Your Majesty, saying that there is something important to report." ”
Yun Feiyang had to lie on the bed and said, "Call him in!"
The deacon and eunuch said yes.
Susu, Lei Yun stood outside the tent curtain and said: "The minister is here late at night, capital crime!"
Yun Feiyang sighed: "What's the matter? But what happened to the West Palace?"
Lei Yun said: "The emperor is like a god, the queen mother's personal maid Ziyu pretended to be the queen mother, set fire to the West Palace, and two other maids took advantage of the chaos to escort the Queen Mother to try to escape, just out of the palace gate, they were surrounded by ministers and people; The queen mother threatened with death, swore not to get out of the carriage, and the ministers didn't know what to do, so they came to ask the emperor for his will. ”
Yun Feiyang had to get up and say, "Wait outside!"
Thundercloud obeyed the order and withdrew, and the deacon and eunuch ordered the maids on night duty in the outer room to hurry in.
For a while, Yun Feiyang put on his clothes and came out and said: "Although her wings have been cut off and she has done nothing, she is still the queen mother, although she is unkind, I can't be unjust." If she has an accident at this time, I am afraid it will be difficult to block the mouth of the world. Hurry up and prepare the car, and I will go to see her myself. ”
Lei Yun and the deacon and eunuch both said yes.
But it was said that Li Qiao'er and her two maids, both pretending to be maids, were blocked outside the city gate by the forbidden army, and they were inevitably panicked, but suddenly two fast horses flew over, instantly broke through the encircled forbidden army, stood in front of Li Qiaoer's carriage and said: "Lin Hongniang and Zhu Shura are late to save the car, please ask the Queen Mother to surrender!"
Li Qiao'er heard in the carriage that Lin Hongniang and Zhu Shura were coming, and her heart suddenly felt a little calm, so she lifted the curtain and took a look, and ordered: "Hongniang, you and Shura came at the right time, quickly make a way for the mourning family!"
Lin Hongniang received the order and shouted at the forbidden army besieging the carriage: "If you don't want to die, get out of the way!"
Lin Hongniang and Zhu Shura's long sword came out of the sheath, and they had to fight to the death.
A carriage came in a hurry at the city gate, followed by a team of guards, and the accompanying eunuch shouted: "The emperor has arrived!"
Li Qiao'er heard this shout in the carriage, and knew that it was impossible to escape, so she simply didn't struggle senselessly, and asked Lin Hongniang and Zhu Shura to put away their long swords.
Yun Feiyang had already gotten out of the carriage and walked towards Li Qiao'er's carriage: "Why did the Queen Mother leave the palace late at night, can you come out and see her." ”
Li Qiao'er sat in the carriage, heard that Yun Feiyang still called herself the queen mother, and knew that Yun Feiyang was afraid that he would die tonight, and it would be difficult to stop the scolding of the world, so he sneered: "Do you want me to go back to prison! Don't dream!"
Yun Feiyang laughed and said: "Why did the Queen Mother say this, you are the Queen Mother of the West Palace, as long as you don't leave the palace at will, I will definitely give birth to you in your old age." If you have anything to say, please make it clear to me face to face. ”
Li Qiao'er just looked up to the sky and laughed in the carriage.
Lin Hongniang said angrily: "Since you still recognize her as the queen mother, why did you send people to besiege the queen mother's carriage here?"
Yun Feiyang said: "Matchmaker, Shura, since you have gone and returned, why don't you come into the palace to see me." When I was still the King of Beijing, I remember that I received a sword from you, do you still want to go toe-to-toe with me today!"
Lin Hongniang suddenly unsheathed her long sword, pointed at Yun Feiyang and said: "What about-for-tat, today I, Lin Hongniang, swear to protect my master and leave safely." ”
When the guards and forbidden soldiers saw Lin Hongniang suddenly draw their swords, they all surrounded them.
For a while, the situation was tense again.
Yun Feiyang shouted: "All the soldiers have returned to the city, and they are not allowed to come out without my order." ”
Thundercloud received the order and retreated with the forbidden army and guards. Qian Zhong, the accompanying deacon and eunuch, hesitated: "The emperor is careful!"
Yun Feiyang said: "Don't worry, I have some private things to say to the Queen Mother." You go back too. ”
Qian Zhong had to lead the two little eunuchs who accompanied him into the city.
Yun Feiyang said to Li Qiao'er: "I don't call you the queen mother now, and I don't think of myself as the emperor, let's talk as an old man, okay?"
When Li Qiao'er heard this, she ordered Lin Hongniang and Zhu Shura to retreat, and pulled off a golden chrysanthemum hairpin from her bun, handed it to the maid beside her, and motioned for her to take it out and hand it to Yun Feiyang.
Yun Feiyang took the golden chrysanthemum hairpin in the maid's hand, which was a gift from him and Li Qiao'er when they were in love that day, and immediately understood Li Qiao'er's intentions, so he said: "Since you have made up your mind, the title of the Chrysanthemum Heavenly Master will be issued and conveyed to the Quartet." It's just that you are going, even if you and I have many grievances and grievances, but everything I have said is sincere, and I hope you will tell me the specific place, and he will go to see you in person when the overall situation is completely calm. ”
Li Qiao'er sighed and said, "How can you not see each other!"
After Li Qiao'er finished speaking, she threw the golden seal of the Queen Mother on her waist out of the carriage and said: "You just tell the people of the world that the mourning family insists on becoming a monk and wants to be an outsider! ”
Yun Feiyang picked up the golden seal on the snow, and when he looked up, Li Qiao'er's carriage had already left.
Lin Hongniang and Zhu Shura also turned their horses' heads and followed.
Yun Feiyang had an inexplicable sense of loss coming to him, but he couldn't tell why.
Suddenly, I saw Zhu Shura draw his sword, bend down on his horse, swing his sword on the snow for a while, and then look back at Yun Feiyang, and Fang rode his horse away.
When the sky was bright, Li Qiao'er's carriage walked away, Yun Feiyang walked up, and looked at the snow, but it was the words "Happy Forest".
The next morning, Yun Feiyang issued an order, sent an order to the world, and named Li Qiaoer as the "Chrysanthemum Heavenly Master". He also ordered the elimination of the ministers who had secretly corresponded with Xigong and Li Chongde. Those who have committed minor sins will be atonemented with money, and those who have committed serious sins will be killed without forgiveness.
For a time, the people in the imperial city panicked, and seven or eight ministers were beheaded.
Yun Feiyang also asked Li Chongde to be taken out of the prison, sentenced him to the palace, and left him under Qian Zhong as a third-class little eunuch.
Li Chongde cried and shouted, but he had no choice but to make a living.
Yun Feiyang said to the ministers: "Although this Li Chongde is guilty of the death penalty of rebellion, his son Swift Wind died in a battle with the King of Nan'an. I have always had clear rewards and punishments, and these loyal ministers who died and survived for the war for the country, the rewards that should be commended, and the pensions that should be paid, the silver came out of the treasury. In the future, I will build the 'Loyal Righteous Terrace' to commend the loyal ministers and righteous people, so that the great deeds of the loyal ministers can shine in the annals of history. ”
The ministers had to be holy.
Yun Feiyang saw that none of the ministers dared to speak, and knew that the ministers were panicking, so he spoke again to appease the ministers, and ordered the ministers to disperse, but he went to the West Palace.
I saw that the West Palace was empty, and the heavy snow was still intermittent.
Yun Feiyang asked Qian Zhongdao, the eunuch beside him: "Do you know where there is a 'Happy Forest' in this imperial city and the four states?"
Qian Zhong listened, thought for a while, shook his head and said, "The old slave really doesn't know, I've never heard of such a place!"
Yun Feiyang suddenly laughed, but sighed again: "It is said that the high places are not cold, and now I still have Nan'an Prefecture unflat, although I have ascended to the throne, but it is also like mountaineering, and I have not yet reached the top of the mountain, but it is already cold." I originally wanted to sweep away the four states and restore peace to the world of the 'Red Mansion', and in less than three or five years, this place will be a real 'paradise'! What do you say is wrong with me?"
When Qian Zhong heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
