A mutiny was quickly rehabilitated, and the guards surrounding the Yang family quickly evacuated, and they came and went in a hurry, if it weren't for the gatehouse who had been keeping an eye on the movement outside the door, and constantly observing outside, I don't know when they would have left.

Gu Chen personally interrogated the impostor, and then he went to the Yang family.

When he entered the door, it was almost dark, and Yang Yuanhai had been waiting for him in the front hall for a while, and specially asked the housekeeper to wait for him at the door.

By the time Gu Chen returned to the courtyard where Qin Niang lived after going to see Yang Yuanhai, it was already completely dark.

Qin Niang was waiting for him at the dining table, and the dishes on that table were obviously cold, but fortunately, in this weather, she didn't care about being cold.

"You're back." As soon as Qin Niang saw him, she immediately stood up, greeted him, stretched out her hand to hug his waist and said, "As soon as I heard that someone led troops to force the palace, my heart was up and down, you weren't hurt, right?" ”

As she spoke, she broke free from his arms and took his arm and looked it up and down.

"I'm fine, I didn't make a move at all." Seeing that she was so attentive to him, Gu Chen's heart suddenly swelled with warmth, and even the tiredness of this day disappeared without a trace, "Those rabble, where can I make a move?" ”

None of the guards in the palace are vegetarians, besides, there are so many masters and his thousands of selected guards, those rabble, at a glance, you can know that they are some bandits and hooligans who don't know where to recruit them, looking at the crowd, in fact, it is not a single blow.

"I just heard my father say that someone pretended to be my eldest brother and raised troops to rebel, but what about my eldest brother?" Qin Niang couldn't help but ask after all, "Didn't you go to interrogate that fake?" Did he say where my big brother was? ”

Yang Hong went out of the city for no reason, even Yang Yuanhai didn't know, this was a very strange thing, and later heard Gu Chen's secret guard say that Yang Hong secretly went to see the owner of Liujiazhuang in the middle of the night, and she was up and down at that time, as a result, the guards said that Yang Hong raised troops to rebel early this morning, and her heart was half cold at that time.

Although she knew very well that Yang Hong could not do such a thing, even if he wanted to, he would not put his relatives in danger, raising troops into the palace like this headless and brainless, no matter how stupid he looked, no matter whether he succeeded or not, he would not end up with a good end in the end.

After she calmed down, she felt that a series of things were weird, not to mention what Yang Hong did when he went out of the city, but said that today's thing was not like what their Yang family could do.

She remembered in her mind that someone had gone to recruit people in the army with Captain Min's face, and the same doubts and speculations suddenly surged in her heart.

She had been sitting in the room waiting, just wanting to wait for Gu to come back and ask him personally.

"That man has a hard mouth and won't say anything, but I have also guessed a few points, for now, your eldest brother should be safe." Gu Chen held her shoulders and pushed her to the chair and sat down, "Don't worry, although your eldest brother can't enter the officialdom, he is not a stupid person, as long as the other party doesn't plan to kill him, he will definitely be able to find a way to escape, and he will come back in a few days." ”

Gu Chen was not entirely to comfort her, with his understanding of Yang Hong, if someone really arrested him, he would definitely not sit still, and now that this rebellion is so big, it is impossible for him to be completely unaware, even if there are people behind this gang, then even if he escapes now, he will not appear easily.

Hiding in the back and waiting for the best time to show up is the most important thing.

When Qin Niang heard him say this, she thought about it in her head and figured it out.

Based on her understanding of Yang Hong, Yang Hong is by no means such a person who is at the mercy of others, except for the emperor's fate, no one can really trap him in this matter.

Thinking of this, her heart suddenly settled.

"Why haven't you eaten yet? I told you not to wait for me, how can you and the child in your womb starve? Gu Chen said, feeling distressed and holding on to her abdomen, where a small hill had already raised, thinking that in a few months, he would be able to be a father, and his heart couldn't help but rise with a wave of anticipation and warmth.

"I've eaten some, these are for you, and besides, I can still accompany you to eat some." Qin Niang took his hand away and said angrily, "I know that I am thinking about your child, as if I am afraid that I will starve him." ”

Gu Chen choked, and then said: "I'm not afraid of starving you, he's just a piece of meat now, what does he know." ”

Qin Niang glared at him, ordered someone to reheat the dish again, and then put her attention back on today's palace change: "Song Xi is already in the prison, and the five princes have no drama, you say, who else is leading such a play, and with a group of rabble, it seems that they are not ready to really succeed, just to pour some dirty water on the heads of our Yang family." ”

Once the Yang family becomes a rebel, then it will really disappear in this capital.

"When Song Huai was still reigning before, I should have mentioned to you that I had seen people carrying a large number of weapons into the valley in the valley outside the city before." Gu Chen said thoughtfully, "Now it seems that they are not just carrying weapons. ”

Perhaps, and iron ore. Naikan bar Chinese network

Otherwise, how did a black iron workshop like Liujiazhuang come out?

As soon as Liujiazhuang exploded, all the clues were completely cut off, and there was no way to find out where the iron ore of Liujiazhuang's iron-making tools came from.

"You mean, this matter has something to do with Song Huai?" Qin Niang's eyes widened and asked, "But, wasn't he exiled to Huaizhou?" ”

How far away is Huaizhou?

Moreover, although it is not as poor as the Northland, it is also a difficult place, and the terrain there is not suitable for hoarding troops at all, even if Song Huai does not give up, he can lead troops from distant Huaizhou to the capital to rebel, this is too exaggerated, right?

Besides, looking at those rabble, it doesn't look like they've come all the way.

"It is precisely because Song Huai is far away in Huaizhou at the moment, and moreover, such a brainless thing is not something that Song Huai can do, maybe, I thought wrong at the beginning, those people and horses who smuggled weapons I saw in the valley may really have nothing to do with Song Huai......" Gu Chen said thoughtfully.

The corners of Qin Niang's eyes jumped, and she said in surprise: "Won't it?" Song Huai obviously also raised private soldiers, otherwise, why didn't he deny it? ”

Gu Chen straightened his thoughts, took a deep breath, and then looked at Qin Niang and said: "It is undeniable that Song Huai does have a problem, but it is precisely because he has a problem that he has been taken advantage of and planted some things that have nothing to do with him on his head, such as iron ore." ”

He originally saw someone carrying boxes of weapons to Song Huai's valley, he thought they were a gang, but now it seems that Song Huai is just cooperating with some people to make a large number of weapons, and the mine may have nothing to do with him.

It seems that when they were about to pull Song Huai off the horse, someone also took the opportunity to set a fire, making Song Huai fall harder.

Now, Song Huaiyuan is in Huaizhou, is it possible that someone still wants to kill him for some reason?

"Are you saying that someone deliberately made such a big move, in addition to wanting to uproot the Yang family and the Gu family, but also wanted to kill Song Huai, who was thousands of miles away? But wasn't it Song Xi who had been pulling Song Huai's back behind his back at the beginning? Now that Song Xi has been put in prison, he can't be a demon anymore. Qin Niang felt that since she became pregnant, her brain was about to be wasted.

In addition to eating and sleeping all day, I want to use my brain now, but I find that it is very dull.

Gu Chen thoughtfully clasped the table with his knuckles, he couldn't figure it out for a while, in this capital, those super careerists have all been dismissed, who else can't see Song Huai so well, wants to kill him all, and forcibly wants to tie the Gu Yang family and Song Huai together, and cut them all off.

When the hot dish was hot, the maids brought it up again, and Qin Niang said: "Don't think about it, things can always come to light in the end, eat first." ”

Gu Chen thought, yes, if the person behind him made such a big move, if he didn't achieve the result he wanted, he wouldn't be reconciled, and there should be another move next time, as long as the other party moved, he would be able to catch the flaw.

The next day, the guards came to report that the impostor died in the prison, he should have taken poison in advance, and if it didn't work out, he would naturally die when the time came, so when Gu Chen interrogated him, he would be so fearless, because he would die sooner or later.

"If you're dead, you're dead, but his body was hung outside the city and exposed to the sun for three days, and a notice was posted to warn him, and in addition, he asked in the prison of the Criminal Department, who had seen Song Xi these days, and reported all his schedules these days." Gu Chen said lightly.

"Yes." The guards retreated.

Qin Niang asked, "Do you suspect that someone has teamed up with Song Xi?" ”

Gu Chen narrowed his eyes and said: "If it weren't for that, I really can't figure out who else can recruit such a large group of people in this capital land, and since Song Huai's power has been eliminated, then it is impossible for him to hide such a big black spot as Liujiazhuang, and there is also an iron mine, I think about it, there is only one Song Xi." ”

Although Song Xiren was imprisoned, he was not immediately killed by the emperor, that is to say, as far as he is concerned, as long as he is alive, he still has hope, he has been planning for so many years, it is impossible that there is no power left at all.

If someone had gone to see him in prison at this time, it would have been difficult to say what he had said.

Such a big hidden danger is really a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff.

The guard went for a long time and came back soon: "Young master, my subordinates went to the prison of the Criminal Department and copied Song Xi's daily life these days, and they said that Song Xi did meet someone a few days ago. ”

Gu Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who did you meet?" ”

The guard shook his head: "I don't know, that one is wrapped in a black cloak, and he can't even see his face clearly, but he has a token on him, so they didn't ask much." ”
