"There is still no early dynasty today!"

"But it's not, I haven't seen the emperor for more than ten days, and I heard that the dragon body is not safe, and all the court books have been handed over to Shangshu Province, and Cai Xiang has full authority to deal with it."

"The king of Ling was in turmoil, and the ministers above the third rank were slaughtered, and now, everyone in this court is also thinking differently and people are panicking."

"Don't chew your tongue anymore, beware of implicating yourself!"

Xiao Moyan walked past a kind of colleague, and could feel their gaze and hear their discussions. Xiao Moyan is also clear about the past few days, King Ling's rebellion is a well-known thing in the whole capital, the minister was killed, the emperor was so angry that he couldn't go to court, and the rebellion case is being tried......

Xiao Moyan is fortunate that his father Xiao Yan is the official title of the Ministry of Works, and he usually wants to enter the Qianyuan Palace on the day of the celebration, but a few days before the celebration, Xiao Yan was ill and couldn't go to the ground at all, so Emperor Liang exempted him from the arrangement of entering the palace. At that time, many people felt that it was a big pity that Xiao Yan did not participate in such an important day, but in the end, everyone realized that blessings and misfortunes really changed in an instant.

Thinking as he walked, Xiao Moyan had already walked to the gate of the Ministry of Industry, and when he looked up, he bumped into Jiang Weizhen.

"Mo Yan, if you lower your head and take a few more steps, it will be this stone pillar that will greet you."

Jiang Weizhen originally wanted to make a joke to adjust the atmosphere, but unexpectedly, Xiao Moyan didn't understand his painstaking efforts.

"Oh, yes, if it weren't for Brother Jiang's reminder, I really wouldn't have noticed!" After all, Jiang Weizhen is a few years older than Xiao Moyan, and in order to show respect, they have always called Jiang Weizhen that; And Jiang Weizhen, in order to shorten the distance with these Qingshan Academy students, also called them by their names.

"Silent words, if there is nothing to do now, why don't you go out and have two drinks together?"

"Brother Jiang invited me like this, but I was disrespectful! Let's just go to Leng Yue Zhai, and I haven't been there for a few days. ”

"Exactly!"

"That's great!" After Xiao Moyan poured a pot of wine into his throat, the whole person finally let go a lot, and without the restraint in the official office, he returned to his original state of being open-mouthed when he spoke angrily. "Only when you are here can you be the most relaxed!"

"What's the matter, you can't relax at home?" Qi Wantong changed to a household of sake, "You also have an official rank now, but you can't get drunk here with me, otherwise something will happen, and I won't be able to get out of it." ”

"Everyone is afraid of getting involved, Wantong, you are no exception?"

"I'm a small business, how can I compare with you courtiers? I still have so many people to raise! ”

Xiao Moyan grabbed a pot of wine from the table and began to pour it into his mouth again, only to stop after burping hard, looking at Qi Wantong and Jiang Weizhen with slightly red cheeks.

"You two must know something, don't you want to ask me?"

"Ask you what? Why are you so depressed and drink to drown your sorrows? ”

"On the day of the celebration, there were a total of thirty-two ministers above the third rank who entered the Qianyuan Palace, except for my father, everyone else was there, but only six people really came out of the Qianyuan Palace alive! The reason for this is that King Ling conspired against him, and now he has been imprisoned, and the three law divisions are jointly trying the comrades in this rebellion case, and many people think of my father! ”

"Ling Zun is sick in bed, this is something that the courtiers know, who would doubt your father and son because of such a thing?"

"Brother Jiang, you have also been in officialdom for a few years, haven't you yet figured out the path of the Qing Dynasty? As long as someone has a heart to use it, my father is likely to be included in the scope of the same party, and then our Xiao family will be in trouble! ”

"The rebellion case has been tried for more than ten days, but what is the progress? As long as you have no contact with King Ling, the emperor naturally has no reason to doubt your loyalty. ”

"Wantong, I have heard that many courtiers in the court have been arrested because of Zhou Xunliang's confession, and some of them have even been tortured to death! I'm worried that someone will trouble our Xiao family at that time. ”

"It has always been the rule to thoroughly investigate the case of rebellion, and each time it is widely implicated, and there have been several such struggles for power in the history books. Look at the emperor's temperament, he has never been able to tolerate the chaos of the people around him, this time the rebellion is so big, the emperor has ordered a thorough investigation, and he can't let go of a fellow party, and many former colleagues have become victims. ”

"In my opinion, they may not be victims, I have also heard of those who have been imprisoned, judging from their past, they are more just people who were once attached to King Ling, so I think this is someone who is doing the same thing in the name of investigating the case!"

Regarding Jiang Weizhen's remarks, Qi Wantong and Xiao Moyan were both surprised. Those who can have the strength to do this, those who have political goals and must do so, how many people can there be in the court?

"You have a point. These days, the capital is completely blocked, outsiders can't come in, and people in the capital can't get out, although it is claimed to ensure the safety of the capital, but in my opinion, it just wants to block the news! So it seems that you want to block the news of the cleansing of dissidents! ”

"I remember when you say that, didn't Kexin have been running between the capital and the academy before? Have you seen her these days? ”

"I haven't seen Kexin since the fourth day of the fourth month of April, I once sent someone to look for it, and she has searched all the places she often goes to on weekdays, and there is still no whereabouts. I guess it was a pity that she left the capital before the celebration, and then she was prevented from returning. ”

Xiao Moyan realized something in a trance after these inextricable things, but the flash was shorter than a meteor, appearing and disappearing in a moment, and he couldn't wait for Xiao Moyan to catch it.

"It's not just Kexin who has disappeared, it's Ke Ran!" Xiao Moyan blurted out to the two.

Call! Yan Keran exhaled deeply, turning every day, even if he was in the prime of life, he had to show a tired look at this moment. The guards who were killed were killed, and all those who survived were imprisoned as the same party of the king of the tomb, and only Yan Keran was left in front of the guards. His father was killed, and he still needed to take care of the aftermath, but King Xiang valued him very much and handed over the rebuilding of the Imperial Forest Guard to him. Every day, I run between the mansion and the palace, and from time to time I have to squeeze out time to go to Skylark Terrace to meet Princess Yunxuan, although Princess Yunxuan never appeared again.

The rebuilding of the Imperial Forest Guard is such a big event, how can Ke Ran do it alone? At the behest of King Xiang, Shen Qianji and Tangtai Wengu helped Yan Keran to plan. With the help of the two of them, things went a lot smoother. This time and again, Yan Keran is also familiar with the two.

On this day, it happened that Yan Keran was on duty, and when he was about to leave the palace after inspecting the harem, he heard the chaotic footsteps coming from the Qingzhi Palace, and out of responsibility, Yan Keran immediately went to check. When I arrived outside the gate of Qingzhi Palace, I saw the attendants and palace maids running in and out in a panic.

Seeing that an inner servant hurriedly ran in the direction of the previous direction, Yan Keran stepped out to stop this person, and when he saw that it was a red man in front of King Xiang, the inner attendant hurriedly saluted.

"Excuse me! What happened in this Qingzhi Palace? ”

"Replying to the words of the captain, it was the emperor who suddenly fainted, and the slave was in a hurry to ask for a royal doctor!"

"How did you faint? Wasn't the emperor okay a few days ago? ”

"This minion doesn't know!"

Yan Keran took out a bag of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the sleeve of the waiter, "If you say it, I will definitely keep it secret for you, after all, I am the current commander of the Imperial Forest Guard, even if you don't say it, I can know it from others." ”

The chamberlain was so frightened that he didn't dare to raise his head, so he had to say truthfully: "The emperor will come to Qingzhi Palace these days, because the dragon body has been unsafe, so let the concubine Niangniang recuperate, and today the emperor suddenly fainted after lunch." The minions also know this, and please raise your noble hand! ”

"Okay, you hurry up and ask the imperial doctor, don't delay the diagnosis and treatment!"

Yan Keran finally looked at Qingzhi Palace, he still controlled his steps, turned to his subordinates and said, "You guys pay more attention to the movements of Qingzhi Palace in the coming days, and report to me immediately if there is news!" Then he strode out of the palace.

After turning a few palace alleys, Yan Keran still wanted to go to the Skylark Terrace to take another look, even if he knew that he was going in vain, but he still retained the last star of hope in his heart.

It is not a short distance to detour from Qingzhi Palace to Skylark Terrace, and Yan Keran is alone at this time, he knows that there is a small path that can save more than half of the time, so he walks towards the short road.

This short road is a narrower palace alley, and the reason why it is deserted is because it passes through some abandoned palaces, including the abandoned courtyard in the backyard of the imperial dining room, which are inaccessible, and Yan Ke Ran has no intention of meeting anyone, let alone acquaintances.
