"Is the emperor really dead?" Feng Huanyu asked incredulously, "Did you see it with your own eyes or hear it from the guards?" "He has a deep fear of the emperor's shrewdness, and if that person uses death or illness to force him to appear, it will be more than worth the loss. At such a critical juncture, revealing strength too early will only lead to ruin.

Feng Wurin shook his head slightly, "I'm afraid that the news is true, that woman is under house arrest in the palace, and the other concubines in the harem are the same, only the queen enters and leaves the Qinzheng Palace every day, and a few strange instructions come from time to time." He paused for a moment, and then said thoughtfully, "Last night she summoned the three old ministers to the wind, and after the wind got the news, she hurriedly rushed into the palace, and then turned around with a happy face. Just this morning, another eunuch announced the queen's decree, saying that the emperor was seriously ill and that state affairs were to be handled by Hai Guanyu and others. ”

At this time, the meaning of announcing that the emperor was seriously ill was extremely obvious, so Feng Huanyu's brows finally relaxed. There is no need to release the rumors anymore, as for whether the emperor dies or not, it doesn't matter, as long as the situation is chaotic, I am afraid that it will be difficult to suppress the situation no matter how capable the bigwigs in Beijing are.

"Wu Rin, is Feng Wu already on his way back to Beijing?" He asked in a deep voice.

"Prince An is afraid that he has already taken refuge in this prince, so he is extremely heavily guarded. If there is no mistake, I am afraid that these people are all elites, and it is impossible to block a hundred with one, and ordinary sergeants may not be able to resist these people at all. "Feng Wulin is extremely well-informed, and they have bought quite a lot of eyes and ears in various places over the years, so they know almost the number of soldiers who follow Feng Wulin.

"Do you think that Feng Wuxian will still be like last time, only taking a few people to sneak back to the capital in advance?"

Feng Huanyu had to think about this. Now that time is pressing, we can only make trouble before Feng Wuxian returns to Beijing, otherwise it will be a trouble. "If the time is not accurate. Then it's all soup. ”

Feng Wurin pondered for a while, and then denied: "The accident last time should have made him a lot more cautious. Otherwise, he would not accept the kindness of Feng Wufang, accompanied by so many elites, and he used a rapid marching posture to make it clear that he was rushing to the capital. If he intends to return to Beijing with his entourage first, he can order the group to slow down to cover up. It is not possible to use this posture like a storm crossing the border. ”

Feng Huanyu was relieved at this time, he had already used flying birds to send a message in the southwest, and at this time, I was afraid that the Burmese Yang clan had suffered a change, and it was estimated that the war was about to break out. There is no such general as Feng Wufang in the southwest, and although He Furong is an important minister of the imperial court, he is not familiar with military affairs, so the defeat is a sure result. As long as they take advantage of the moment the message comes, I am afraid that He Xiao and the two families will not be able to suppress the situation.

He smiled coldly and muttered, "This day has finally come." ”

Although they had tried their best to hurry, Lu Yuanchang and Zhang Yunfeng were afraid that people would see the details. After all, if there is a prince in the group, it is impossible to go too fast. Not only that, but the rapid march of their group was too ostentatious. On the official road, I often encounter people sent by various prefectures and counties to inquire about the locals. Even if these delays are not counted, it will take them at least ten days to reach the capital. Only the two leaders knew that the crown prince was not among them, although they had left almost all of the accompanying guards. But he himself had already rushed to the capital one step earlier with the soldiers sent to the capital by Prince An.

Chen Lingcheng arrived at the East Palace safely through the tunnel, and Hongru was immediately overjoyed when she saw this father-in-law, and even her worries about her husband's safety were reduced a little. Although the people in the East Palace were quite surprised by Chen Lingcheng's vast supernatural powers, at this moment, it was always better to have someone who could come up with ideas, so in order to save the lives and future of the others, they had to get together again to discuss. This time, there was just too much information they could take advantage of.

Unlike usual, there were a few more people in the East Palace on this day. Due to Empress Xiao's special permission, several people from the Zhan Mansion were finally able to go out, so they all gathered here. Shao Zhan Shi Zuo Jinhuan's face lost his former self-confidence, and he drooped his head, looking extremely depressed. He really felt a kind of powerlessness, in a place like the capital where strength determines everything, Feng Wuxian is not the prince, and the weight of his words as a young Zhan Shi is light, and now he is almost under house arrest, which is sad to think about. Even Fan Hengwen and Li Junda are also helpless, their grade is lower than Zuo Jinhuan, and their family background is far inferior, and the feeling of being watched as prisoners these days is really infuriating.

Because in addition to the men who discussed together, there were also four princesses who had no trace, so they had to set up a screen in the middle. However, after a few words of conversation, everyone's spirits gradually gathered, and now it was an extraordinary time, and they had no time to waste. It can be said that even if more than half of the civil and military officials support Feng Wuxi, it is only because he has the title of crown prince. If there is an edict at that time, the throne is likely to fall to someone else, and who dares to disobey the emperor's will at that time, even if it is likely to be an edict.

"Therefore, the attitude of the queen mother is crucial." Yue Qiyan said calmly, "Although I don't have much contact with the queen mother, I have met her a few times, and she gives people the impression that in addition to the grace and luxury on the surface, the deeper feeling is that she is decisive. According to what His Highness said before, we are at least seventy percent sure of the position of the Queen Mother, so we might as well make such an assumption that everything at present is the result of the Queen Mother's momentum. She had thought about this question many times, and throwing it out at this time couldn't help but have a shocking meaning.

Previously, they were quite dissatisfied with Xiao's inexplicable attitude, and even many people thought that the audacity of the Admiral of the Nine Gates was instigated by the queen behind the scenes, but now it seems that this understanding may indeed be biased.

"Indeed, it is a taboo for ancient and modern emperors to abolish the long and young, not to mention that if such an edict really comes at a critical juncture, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the ministers and the people." Shi Jingqi nodded in agreement and said, "Every step the queen has taken in the past is deeply in line with the essentials, if the emperor really has the heart, maybe the edict of succession is in her hands." ”

There was a strong sense of speculation in this sentence, but everyone had to admit that the meaning of it might be the truth. Just looking at the situation of several important ministers being placed under house arrest, we know that they probably don't know anything about the edict, so whether they are dead or alive really depends on the queen's decision.

"You have to try to see your mother once." Hai Ruoxin, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally couldn't help it, "I have to go to the palace, otherwise if I do this again, there is a great chance that something else will go wrong." ”

She ignored the stunned emotions of others, and continued to herself, "You don't understand, every time I entered the palace before, the queen mother would point out a lot of things, and if I was not mistaken, the queen mother had already made a decision at that time. Her words were vague, but her categorical tone made the others understand something else. Queen Xiao can instruct this genuine daughter-in-law that there can't be anything else, only the bearing of the mother's world. It must be known that Hai Ruoxin is an upright princess, and once Feng Wuxian ascends the throne, the back position is in her bag.

"It's not the hardest thing to do, but it's quite risky." Chen Lingcheng was the first to react, "Your Royal Highness the Crown Princess, are you sure you really want to do this?" The palace is in chaos now, and the slightest carelessness may lead to great trouble. Although he also thought it was necessary to sneak into the palace once, he didn't plan to let Hai Ruoxin come out and do such a thing.

"I've already decided, if I sit back and wait for death now, I think we people won't be able to do anything until His Highness returns." Hai Ruoxin retorted very resolutely, "Instead of waiting here or waiting for others to come to the door to provoke, it is better for us to find out the truth first." ”

The others looked at each other for a long time, and finally couldn't resist the stubborn princess, but to find a way to enter the palace, they still had to rely on Chen Lingcheng's ability. Although the three people from Zhan Shifu were able to enter the East Palace this time, it did not mean that they could go out again, so the only ones who could enter and leave freely were those who had martial arts.

When there were still two days to go from the capital, Feng Wuxian finally ordered a temporary halt to rest for a while. After galloping for eight days in a row, he even slept on horseback, and the hardships were really inhumane. If it weren't for the secret method taught by Ming Fang Zhenren back then, his body would have been reborn, and I am afraid he would have fallen from the galloping horse. However, their hurried appearance was evident in keeping with the status of the messengers of victory, and the post stations that changed horses everywhere changed horses for them without expressing any suspicion after reading the seal of Feng Wufang. However, among the pro-soldiers selected by Feng Wufang, a few of them showed irrepressible exhaustion.

The Immortal still stood beside Feng Wuxian without saying a word, without a trace of expression on his face, as if the eight days of galloping in a row had not brought any tiredness. He watched his master play with the small golden cylinder that never left him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly. He didn't know what was inside, and the only clue was that Feng Wuxian had said that this was a treasure solemnly given by the emperor.

"Your Highness, you better open it and take a look." He finally couldn't help but speak, "No one knows the situation in the capital, if you break in without any reason, the consequences are really unpredictable." ”

Feng Wuxian didn't look back, only heard him sigh heavily, and then began to remove the sealing mud from the small gold cylinder. The contents were as light as the weight of a gold cylinder, with the exception of a wrench, two thin rolls of paper. However, it was clear to both of them that those two volumes were probably the key to everything. Lingyun Zhiyi Traceless Chapter 8 Xinjun Chapter 31 Determination
