The Zhuang Ding of the manor of the royal family from the 25th day began to enter Beijing one after another, in order to prevent exposure, their weapons and personnel are separated, 29 days, into the capital Zhuang Ding reached **, a morning there are more than 3,000 people into Beijing, a large group of young people from the Dingding Gate into the city, has attracted the attention of the defenders of the nine gates, when the order is handed down from above, there is no problem, the defenders are not allowed to be embarrassed.

In a small courtyard next to the Dingding Gate, the situation of the Dingding Gate can be clearly seen from the wall of the small courtyard, and Yu Yongqing rented this small courtyard at the price of one or two silver per day, which became a favorable position for the Yongjing intelligence agency to observe the deployment of the city gate.

Several Chuzhou spies have been recording the number of people entering Beijing in the past few days, and their target is those young and strong people who are in groups of three or five, empty-handed, and as of noon on the 29th, their record has exceeded 10,000, and they have entered the mansions of various royal families after entering the city.

This indicates that these royals are ready to carry out a large-scale operation during these two days.

At noon, after Tan Ju and Yu Yongqing briefly discussed, both of them thought that the time had come.

Tan Ju has come to Bai Mingkai's mansion for the fourth time in just two months, and even the porter knows him, but Tan Ju's gentle and elegant scholarly temperament is very suitable for the style of Bai Mansion, and all the subordinates think that this is a book friend of the old man.

Tan Ju didn't have to wait when he entered the Bai Mansion, he was led directly to the study by the housekeeper, it was noon, and Bai Mingkai had to go back to the house to rest for a while at noon every day.

After waiting at the door of the study for a while, the housekeeper smiled and said, "Mr. Tan, the master invites you in!" ”

Tan Ju walked into the study and saw Bai Mingkai getting up from the Taishi chair, and couldn't help but apologize: "I've disturbed Bai Xiangguo's rest." ”

Bai Mingkai knew that there must be something important when he arrived, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Tan, please take a seat!" ”

Tan Ju usually had to say a few words to Bai Mingkai first, but today he was not in the mood, and the situation was more urgent today.

"I'm here to tell Bai Xiangguo an important piece of information, the royal family in Yongjing is likely to rebel in the next two days."

Bai Mingkai was taken aback, he sat up straight all of a sudden, "Is the news serious?" ”

Tan Ju nodded, "From the twenty-fifth day to the present, Zhuang Ding, who has passed 10,000 years, has entered Beijing, and it is obvious that there is action. ”

But what is the point of them doing this? As soon as the army crushes them, they are all finished. ”

Bai Mingkai's brows furrowed, he couldn't figure out what the royal family meant by doing this? What problems can be solved, but one thing is certain, he and his family must be transferred immediately, it was he who proposed to confiscate the royal family, and the first royal family to rebel will not let him go.

"Do you want me to tell the Queen Mother about this again?"

Tan Ju smiled and said: "That's what our Highness means, I hope that Empress Dowager Shen will come up with thunder means." ”

Bai Mingkai suddenly realized that Huangfu Wujin wanted to suggest to the Empress Dowager Shen how to fight the royal family, so that a clever person borrowed a knife to kill people, it seems that the Chu army's large-scale attack is deliberately creating opportunities for the royal family.

"I understand, I'll go to the Queen Mother."

．．．．．．．．． Empress Dowager Shen also just took a nap, Bai Mingkai's news made her break out in a cold sweat, she didn't know that the royal family had started to act, and most of her embroidered guards were not in the capital, which made her lose her eyes and ears.

"Bai Xiangguo, how do you know?"

"There is a subordinate in Weichen's mansion, and he has relatives who happen to be the sergeants on duty in Dingdingmen, and they talked about it during dinner, so Weichen has to report it."

"Damn Shen Qin, do you want the mourning family to die?" Empress Dowager Shen clenched her silver teeth, she had already guessed Uncle Shen's thoughts, he was pretending to be a royal family to deal with herself.

"Queen Mother, what should we do?" Bai Mingkai asked nervously.

Empress Dowager Shen glanced at him, not that she didn't believe Bai Mingkai, but that there were some things she really didn't want too many people to know, Bai Mingkai was just a government affair, and he didn't need to ask about the affairs of the army, but she couldn't ignore Bai Mingkai's safety.

"Bai Shangshu, you and your family will temporarily live in the palace in the past few days, and the mourning family will arrange a safe place for you."

"Thank you, Queen Mother, that Weichen went back to arrange."

Bai Mingkai retired, Empress Dowager Shen pondered for a long time, she felt a little strange, if the royal family really overthrew themselves, then what would they do in the future? And Uncle Shen Guo also seems to know, is this matter related to the emperor?

"Hurry up and bring Zhang Desheng to the mourning family."

After a long time, several guards helped the limping little eunuch Zhang Desheng into the imperial study, he had just been executed, and his bones seemed to be broken.

"Queen Mother!" He lay on the ground crying.

"What's the matter with you?" Empress Dowager Shen asked with a frown.

"Queen Mother, the slave angered the emperor and was beaten by the emperor."

Empress Dowager Shen didn't care why he was beaten, she only cared about her son's movements.

"Is there any movement from the emperor?"

"The emperor has been fine for the past two days, but ......."

"But what?" Empress Dowager Shen stared at him and asked.

"But the slave just saw Xu Yun sneaking around and going to find the emperor."

Empress Dowager Shen groaned, then waved her hand to let the guards help him down, she walked a few steps in the imperial study with her hands behind her back, and immediately ordered: "Send a pigeon letter to Shen Ji quickly, just say that there is a change in Beijing, and order him to lead troops into Beijing as quickly as possible." ”

She ordered again, "Order the embroidered guards from all over the country to return to Beijing immediately!" ”

A confidant eunuch immediately went down, and then Empress Dowager Shen took out a jade bell from the drawer and shook it, 'Ding Dong! Jingling! The jade bell made a crisp sound.

A gray-clothed man suddenly appeared from the window, "See the Queen Mother!" ”

"You go and keep an eye on Xu Yun, you have to keep an eye on his every move, and report to the mourning family at any time."

．．．．．．．． Today and tomorrow are also difficult to calm down for Uncle Shen, the emptiness in Guanzhong's abdomen makes him feel that the opportunity is coming, but he is not as optimistic as Huangfu Tian, he thinks that he is only fifty percent sure, but for him, this is just a risk-free gamble, winning, he controls the overall situation, loses, he retreats to Shuzhou, even if he does not carry out this palace coup, he also decides to retreat to Shuzhou and control one side alone.

Uncle Shen only learned yesterday that there was a large-scale entry into the city by the royal family, and he realized that the royal family was also going to take action, this news made him a little surprised, he didn't know if this was organized by the royal family itself, or if he had already had a tacit understanding with Huangfu Tian?

This made him feel a little worried in his heart, in fact, the palace coup is a very simple matter, as long as you guard the Xuanwu Gate, prevent the Long Wu Army of the West Inner Garden from entering the Ping'an Palace, and then control the Empress Dowager Shen, this coup will be considered a success.

The role of the royal family is just to correct the name after the fact, to prove to the world that Yongjing is still the orthodoxy of Daning, so that Yongjing can gain a political advantage, and he can compete with Luojing, and finally divide the world in two.

But things have become complicated, the royal family actually has to participate in the palace coup, this is like an assassin who goes on a mission, originally black-clad with a single knife, can not only thunderbolt, but also come and go without a trace, but now wearing armor and helmets, full of weapons, such an assassin can succeed?

Uncle Shen Guo's heart was full of doubts, and he didn't interfere too much, so he could only watch from the sidelines, and at the same time, he ordered the guards to send his three grandsons and several wives and concubines to Hanzhong first.

Time is passing rapidly, night has fallen in Yongjing City, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, at this time every household is busy preparing for tomorrow night's ancestral sacrifice, the entire Yongjing City is immersed in a peaceful, joyful and calm atmosphere.

Mao Xiang, the general of Yulin, is also preparing for tomorrow night's ancestor worship in the house, Mao Xiang put forward ten conditions in the conversation with Zhou and Xu, including his request for three more large houses, the amount of rewards he needs, and the official positions of his five main sons, including the eldest son Mao Yue to inherit his position as a general, etc., can be described as a lion's mouth.

But he didn't think he was excessive, he felt that he was taking a big risk, and more importantly, he knew his weight in this coup, without him, the emperor would have achieved nothing.

Mao Xiang knew in his heart that the only passage from Ping'an Palace to the West Inner Garden, Xuanwu Gate, was under his control, and he was very confident in this coup, and he was already a little impatient.

Mao Xiang checked the details of various ancestor worship in his Mao ancestral hall, he didn't have to worry about it, his sons would arrange them one by one, and his eldest son Mao Yue would be fully responsible.

"Father, it's almost there, do you see what other details are inappropriate?" His eldest son, Mao Yue, said respectfully to his father.

The eldest son Mao Yue is forty-five years old, but he is still just a small lieutenant officer, and he can't even be a general, which makes Mao Xiang full of guilt for the eldest son, this is not the eldest son's lack of ability, the Daning Dynasty has been peaceful for hundreds of years, there is no war, and there is no need for any ability, which is obviously someone wearing small shoes for him.

Mao Xiang gently patted his son's shoulder, "Well done, hard work, after the New Year, my father will give you a surprise." ”

"Thank you, father!"

Mao Xiang kept it a very strict secret, and even his son didn't know what was going to happen, when a little maid ran over in a panic, "Master, master!" ”

She looked very frightened, and Mao Xiang's face sank, "Why are you so panicked?" ”

The little maid stepped forward and whispered a few words in his ear, Mao Xiang's face changed, he didn't explain, he turned around and left, making his sons confused, I don't know what happened?

Mao Xiang walked back to his study quickly, the door of the study was ajar, and the light was on, obviously what the little maid found when she was cleaning the study just now.

Mao Xiang slowly pushed open the door, he also saw that there was a dagger nailed to the snow-white wall, and there was a bloody thing on the dagger, which made people feel frightened, Mao Xiang stepped forward step by step, and he was also very nervous in his heart, it was never a good thing to appear at this critical juncture.

He stretched out his hand and pulled the dagger off the wall, the bloody thing was like a letter, he opened it with trembling hands, and in an instant, he thundered like five thunderbolts, his eyes stared straight at the letter, and he fell down on the chair.
