Gan Tang sent away the last group of Beijing officials and relatives and friends who came to mourn, it was already the beginning of the lanterns, and when this internal dumping, he did not seek merit or fault, but could only wait and see what happened. Only in this way can it not arouse suspicion from all sides.

Just as Gan Tang thought, Chai Xinyuan's series of wills on the ninth and eleventh days of the first lunar month came down, and the originally ignorant people also noticed that something was wrong.

The princes of the clan, civil and military officials, have ears and eyes in the palace, waiting for news from the palace, and those who have no ears and eyes in the palace are keeping an eye on the mansions of the various political halls.

All parties are ready to move, and they are all thinking about whether there will be a change in the selection of the prince, and if there is no change, who are the auxiliary ministers?

After waiting for a day, on the afternoon of March 11, there was finally a will to come down, and on the 16th, Zhongshan Spring Day Sacrifice, the crown prince. Taifu Jiaru and Guangping waited for Yang Liangjie as the great envoys and went with the prince.

On this night, how many people tossed and turned, unable to sleep. At this time, the crown prince Qiqi presided over the worship on behalf of the Son of Heaven, which was clearly intentional, and it seemed that the emperor had strengthened the position of the prince this time.

And Taifu Jiaru and Guangping Hou Yang Liangjie are suspected of losing ground in the counterinsurgency, but from this incident, the two of them have not lost the favor of the official family.

Gantang can't sleep, but he doesn't have the optimism of others.

Ouchi Imperial Palace is in the east of the city, and the Zhongshan festival site is in the south of the city. There are dozens of miles in the middle, and the crown prince Qiqi is not only the chief priest on behalf of the Son of Heaven, but also respectfully and strictly fasts in the fasting place for several days.

But to say that Chai Xinyuan changed the prince, first took away Qiqi, but arranged two heavyweight ministers of the court to accompany the sacrifice, uncle Yang Jieliang was deprived of military power a few days ago, to nothing, but Jia Ru is the first important minister in the court!

If there is a intention to change the prince, and Jia Ru will be taken away together, it makes some sense.

At present, although the surface of the court is calm, the undercurrent is more and more turbulent, which is frightening.

The will of the official family, at best, has the intention of further affirming the crown prince as the heir; At worst, it was to put the crown prince Qiqi, Jia Ru, and Yang Jieliang under house arrest at the Zhongshan altar.

Gan Tang was blinded by layers of fog, and he didn't completely see through the game between Chai Xinyuan and the powerful minister Jia Ru.

He never thought that the official family had announced that his younger brother Fuwang Chai Mingyuan had returned to the dynasty a few days ago, and made him the regent, and he was quite confident in his body, and his body could last until Chai Mingyuan returned to the dynasty.

put the prince and Jia Ru under house arrest in Zhongshan together, but he used the prince to confuse Jia Ru, so that he could give himself more time to lay out calmly.

But what Chai Xinyuan never imagined was that Jia Ru had a deep foundation, full wings, and had become a skyrocketing trend, which was not something that Chai Xinyuan could contain.

Gan Tang recalled what happened during this period of time, and carefully recalled it again, after the rebellion of Chai and Rui and others, the crown prince Qiqi was in the royal family, and no one had the strength to fight, and no one could match Qiqi.

Thinking of this, Gan Tang breathed a sigh of relief again.

It's good that there are no evenly matched opponents, so that even if it's a little bit of a fight, the dust can settle down. Gyeonggi Province is once again in turmoil.

He is a bystander, but how many people can be self-aware?

The two people who were ordered to wait in front of the emperor, now Jia Ru accompanied the prince to sacrifice, and now only the founding prince Cao Lei is still in front of the palace.

Except for a few cronies and eunuchs in the palace, only Cao Lei was still in front of the palace, and no one else saw the holy driver. And so everyone looked down

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

In Cao Lei, the founding father, I want to find out the news of the housekeeper from his mouth.

Cao Lei honestly knows what he knows. At a certain time, the official family took medicine; At a certain time, the official family has a meal; Explain it carefully. At this time, he did not want to cause public outrage. Lay a curse for yourself.

From his speech, it can be seen that the health of the official family is gradually improving.

On the thirteenth day of March, Jia Ru sent eunuchs and guards from the Zhongshan Altar to ask for peace, and the emperor sent a message to the people, "My body is slightly healed."

For a while, the other noble ministers couldn't help but be surprised.

Everyone handed over signs in front of the palace gate every day, waiting for Sheng'an, but the official family ignored it, and no one explained it, Jia Ru only sent the eunuch guards who accompanied the sacrifice, and the official family could give him an edict.

It's just that Gao Feng, the chief administrator of the emperor who was waiting for the emperor in the Taiyi Palace, was uneasy and shocked.

Because on the day of the eleventh, only he and Wang Chun were waiting in front of the official house, and he knew that the eleventh was scared of all the wills, not only to many courtiers, but also to the blessed king Chai Mingyuan who was in Nanyang.

Whether it was just to pass on the blessing king to return to Beijing to see the fight, or something else, it is unknown, it has been two days, and there are still four guards who went to pass the decree to the blessing king, I don't know where they went?

Back in the evening of the 11th, the wind stopped, and the figures of the two were exposed to the edge of the dense forest next to the official road, and it could be clearly seen that both of them were carrying weapons, one of them was carrying a longbow, and the other was carrying a crossbow behind his back.

Both of them were wearing single clothes, and from the seemingly agile hands, they looked a little like hunters in the mountains.

Naturally, they are not Orions.

The fragmentary remnants of the valley were left behind after the rebellion in the capital a few days ago, after the war disaster, in which the man with the crossbow walked forward, and the other person hid himself after shouting into the dense forest.

The mountains were calm again, and when the man in front of him went up a dirt slope in front of him, he looked in the direction of Jiankang through the sunset, and quickly made a gesture, and the people in the grass here suddenly heard something.

In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves was heard, and soon after, five people and two horses appeared in the distance at the mouth of the valley.

When the five men and ten horses rushed from the front of him and crossed a distance of nearly fifty paces, the man with the bow stood up from the grass, and with a 'bang', the bow sounded, and at the same time, an arrow stabbed obliquely into the back of the last knight, and the other arrow turned into a black shadow and crossed------ which was the last picture he saw.

More than a dozen figures in the woods on both sides rushed out, running and bowing at the same time. The other knight had just driven his horse past his fallen companion when a subsequent arrow sent a splash of blood out of his body.

In a moment, there was a sudden shouting sound in the woods ahead, and the shouts suddenly soared to the highest, and more than a dozen people poured out from behind the mound in front of them.

The remaining three knights were a little flustered for a moment, one of them drew his long-handled saber, and on the other side a man with a sword in both hands, left and right, attached to the middle person, and fled into the woods.

For the interception of dozens of masters encountered on the way, it was basically unexpected by the three of them, and in time, the knight of the embroidered knife rose from the horse, moved several times in mid-air, and hit his head like in front of the ambush crowd, and the sound of 'Woo' almost splashed sparks in the sunset, and a knife light almost scraped his ears, and the soft pocket of the guard on his head flew out, revealing a head full of hair, but it turned out to be Lin Yu of Long Xiangwei.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The hand embroidered knife slashed through the neck of one of the other party, bringing out a large rain of blood, and the right hand embroidered knife collided with the opponent's weapon of a master of the heavy sword, Lin Yu's tiger mouth was shattered, and he swung the knife again in mid-air, and the figure that jumped up blocked the sunlight behind him.

The enemy who was struck in the neck looked in disbelief and slowly fell to the ground.

In the afterglow of the field of vision, the companion who came together was in the retreat to the deep forest and a person dressed as a scholar, and quickly made four or five moves in a row, and found that the other party actually used a big splash of ink swordsmanship, Jia Qiang! Under the lightning-fast attack of the opponent, the companion's arms were removed almost simultaneously, and then the head.

The scholar's body, not even a drop of blood stained, heard a 'boom' in his ears, his head was hit by the enemy's punch, in the last bit of consciousness, the attack on himself turned out to be Taifu Jiaru's person, because the big splash ink swordsmanship is the mystery of the Jiangnan Jia family.

Fifty miles south of the city, somewhere in a house.

This is a small courtyard with two entrances and exits, and it is very quiet because it is far away from a remote place in Jiankang.

From the outside, this place is no different from ordinary houses, and no one would have thought that there are several tunnels under this house, not to mention extending in all directions, but also through several directions.

Duan Gui, the eunuch who passed the decree in front of the emperor, stuffed walnuts in his mouth at this moment, and fell to the ground in one of the secret rooms with his hands tied behind his back.

In the secret room, there was a smell of urine.

He has been left here for a day and a night, the rice water has not entered, and the side is okay, this bladder has been held all night, and today he can't help it, urinating in the crotch of his pants.

It's wet underneath it, sticking to it, making people feel cold. But no matter how cold it is under the body, it can't be compared to the cold heart.

Duan Gui knew that his little life was about to end.

Although he is a lowly eunuch, he is an angel who transmits the decree, and the other party has no scruples, kills the guards of the inner palace who guards him, and loots himself, and has committed the crime of bullying the king. is so presumptuous, even the emperor doesn't take it in his eyes, where is his way to live?

Duan Gui is already desperate, the most unworried is the master Wang Chun who is still in the palace, the official family is a person who misses the old love, as long as he is in one day, the master's life can be saved for one day, but this time, the emperor is afraid that it will really not work.

The concern for his relatives and the fear of death made Duan Gui unable to hold back any longer and cried "whining".

He didn't know that above his head, a pair of eyes were staring at him.

Seeing that his tears and snot were down, the man nodded with satisfaction, pushed into the eye of the search, and went to the next room.

In the next room, the person who drank tea leisurely turned out to be Taifu Jiaru, who was supposed to fast at the Zhongshan altar.

"Taifu, that kid is almost done." The person who came in was not an outsider, it was Zhang Gong, Jia Ru's confidant.

Jia Ru put down the teacup and said, "Very good, send him some food, and then let him write." But if he is disobedient, mention Wang Chun with him. As he spoke, he looked at the yellow silk package on the desk under the window. It was Duan Gui who brought it out from the Imperial Front this time. From the moment he saw it, Zhang Gong was also uneasy.

He helped Jia Ru do things in order to fulfill the responsibility of a minister, but now, Jia Ru is getting deeper and deeper for his rights, and he has been involved in rebellion.

He is not a fool, but he is stuck in the mud, and when he understands it, he can't get out, so he can only do his best to gamble on the relationship between the guest and the host, and have a chance to live.
