612: Get on your horse and enter the palace with me!
Hearing the movement on the street, Cheng Qing immediately decided to let Cheng Hui and Mrs. Dong pick them up.
The Dong family is on the same street, only a few households apart, and the Dong family also has a healthy servant, and the strength of the two families is more useful together.
Cheng Hui was holding her daughter Xiao Niuniu in her hand, and Mrs. Dong was quite calm.
When the street was in chaos, it was only slightly bright, Dong Jinqiu had not yet gone to the Hanlin Academy, at this time, no property was more important than his life, and the only thing Dong Jinqiu brought was his bow and arrow.
"Xiaolang—"
"Needless to say, the eldest prince is the opposite, now the eldest prince's target is mainly the palace, but the capital will definitely be chaotic, we can't take care of the palace, let's take care of ourselves first!"
Cheng Qing is not afraid of anything else, he is afraid that the eldest prince will rebel, and at the same time as the palace changes, he will also get rid of the people he doesn't like.
As for why he knew that the eldest prince was reversed, when the army galloped through the streets, the slogan shouted in his mouth was to clear the king's side and support orthodoxy on the orders of the emperor's eldest son!
Dong Jinqiu nodded with a condensed expression.
"Huiniang, mother, you go to the back first."
The Dong family and the Cheng family have dozens of people combined.
This person can't resist the army, but if Xiaoxiao takes the opportunity to make trouble, he can still block it. Not only did the Cheng family do this, but the entire street took action, and everyone closed their doors and didn't dare to take the lead, just hoping that the chaos on the street would not affect their own homes.
The eldest prince is naturally unpleasant to look at Cheng Qing, and at this critical moment, the eldest prince may not be able to spare the energy to clean up Cheng Qing.
Cheng Qing was more worried about the Cui family.
Cui Peng must have brought someone into the palace, but whether this thing has arranged for someone to deal with the Cui family, Cheng Qing can't be sure.
As for the second sister Cheng Ci, Cheng Qing is not worried, the guard force of the Maoguo Mansion is very strong, and Cheng Ci is safer in the Guogong Mansion than the Cheng family when he returns to the Cheng family!
The streets are in complete chaos.
There was a group of people who were fierce and vicious, with weapons in their hands, and saw that there were sturdy family members standing on the wall of Cheng Qing's house, and they turned their heads and broke into the house next door to Cheng Qing's house.
Next door to the Cheng family is a small head of the Ministry of Rites, who is usually walking around with the Cheng family, and a thief breaks into the house, and immediately shouts "Lord Cheng, help"!
Takeji was in a dilemma.
"Young Master—"
"Bow and arrow ready, help them! Don't help people now, wait for the neighbors to be killed, and the next one is the Cheng family! ”
Those who live on this street, although they are not big officials and dignitaries, they also have some status, their families can afford to raise people, they have a family and a maidservant, they have a certain family background, and their defense ability is not as good as that of a real big official and dignitary, so it is not surprising that they will be targeted and looted.
Cheng Qing didn't care what the identity of the robbed thief was, at this time, he was still cautious to preserve his strength, the neighbors were all killed, and it would be the turn of the Cheng family sooner or later.
Rather than being a shrunken turtle, it is better to fight hard, and if you are afraid of those robbers, you naturally don't dare to come over and loot - as for what to do in other places, Cheng Qing can only protect his family first.
Wu Er led people to shoot arrows at the wall, and the female dependents of the head of the Ministry of Rites next door cried and screamed, and the head of the Ministry of Rites got the help of the Cheng family, but he cheered up and fought with the thief.
The Cheng family's family climbed over the wall to help each other, and with Cheng Qing raising his arms and shouting, after the Cheng family's family helped, several other neighbors also helped.
This small group of thieves, only a few dozen people, was very fierce at the beginning, and when they found that these people were attacking them en masse, the thieves first confessed and threw away their weapons and begged for mercy.
The little head of the Ministry of Rites was slashed by a thief, and the blood flowed heavily, Dong Jinqiu asked Cheng Qing what to do, and Cheng Qing only replied with the word "kill".
This situation has been encountered many times by Cheng Qing in Huainan.
To be soft on one's enemies is to be cruel to oneself.
If you dare to rush into other people's homes to rob and kill people, you should be mentally prepared to be counter-killed!
The lady of the head of the Ministry of Rites was crying, and there was chaos outside, where can I go to ask for a doctor at this time?
Cheng Hui handed her daughter to her mother-in-law, Mrs. Dong, "Mother, I'll go over with Xiaopan to have a look?" ”
Xiao Pan hurriedly said no.
"Miss, just go over by yourself!"
Cheng Hui only stitched up the wound for Wuda, and Xiaopan went to Huainan once, and the apprentices taught a lot, and of course his skills were practiced very well.
Cheng Qing didn't let Xiaopan go over, but asked people to carry the injured head of the Ministry of Rites to Cheng's house.
Xiao Pan flew needles and threads in the yard to treat wounds for the head of the Ministry of Rites.
Several neighbors watched it with their own eyes, and they looked at Cheng Qing more and more.
Only Cheng Qing has the prestige to bring everyone together, if you don't listen to Cheng Qing, everyone's strength is scattered, and if you encounter a stronger enemy, you can only wait for death!
What happened to Cheng Qing's family was not a special case, and the entire capital was in chaos.
Cheng Liu's old man's house.
Cheng Zhixu's house.
At the same time, there are thieves attacking.
If Cheng Qing could know this, he would be sure that while the eldest prince launched the palace mutiny, he did not forget to uproot the power of the Nanyi Cheng clan in the capital - all the people related to the Cheng clan were the targets of the eldest prince's elimination!
Cheng Qing hated the eldest prince for defiling Cheng Rong, and the eldest prince also complained that the Cheng family was unrelenting, and deep down in his heart, not only did he not feel guilty about Cheng Rong, but even blamed Cheng Rong for being too strong.
If Cheng Rong didn't die, he could give Cheng Rong a name, and if that matter was handled well, how could he lose his position as the prince?
Not to mention, afterwards, the eldest prince put down his body and wooed the Cheng family, but the Cheng family ignored it!
Ignorant of lifting, resentful.
Such a Nanyi Cheng clan, even if the Great Emperor's Palace succeeds in ascending to the throne, it will not stay.
When the eldest prince becomes the emperor, it is not easy to attack the Cheng family, and he wants to show the strength of the king.
When the capital is in chaos, you can take the opportunity to get rid of the Cheng family.
Cheng Qing, Cheng Zhixu and Cheng Shangshu, these three people are the mainstay of Nanyi Cheng's family.
Meng Huaijin, Cui Yan and others are the subsidiary forces of the Nanyi Cheng clan, and they must also be cut off.
……
Meng Huaijin slashed the thief who broke into his home with a sword.
In the courtyard of the Meng family, the body of the thief fell to the ground, and Mrs. Meng's face turned pale with fright, and she grabbed the placket of her clothes with one hand:
"Sincerely—"
The Meng family's family is actually more powerful than the Cheng family's family, but outsiders don't know it.
Meng Huaijin opened the secret passage in the study and sent his adoptive mother in.
"The eldest prince is the opposite, I don't worry about the palace, my mother is here waiting for me to come back."
Mrs. Meng naturally knew the severity.
Even if her heart was in her throat, Mrs. Meng couldn't stop Meng Huaijin, she could only tell Meng Huaijin to be careful: "No matter how good your martial arts are, you can't beat the army, so take care of yourself." ”
Meng Huaijin rode straight to the palace.
Although he knew that the eldest prince would rebel, and even faintly hoped that the eldest prince would rebel to break the deadlock, and made certain preparations, but the eldest prince really launched a palace change, Meng Huaijin still couldn't rest assured that the queen mother in the Qianqing Palace was at ease.
The sword has no eyes, Luo Jun and the forbidden army will protect the emperor first when they are in danger, and they may not be able to take care of the queen's mother...... Meng Huaijin ran for a while, and suddenly turned around and ran in the direction of Cheng's house.
Cheng Qing was concentrating the guards of the neighbors and laying a defensive line on the streets and at the end of the street, but he didn't expect Meng Huaijin to suddenly appear.
"Senior brother!"
Meng Huaijin stretched out his hand, "Get on the horse and enter the palace with me!" ”
If Cheng Qing doesn't save the driver, the emperor's suspicion of Cheng Qing can't be eliminated, this is the best opportunity.
Cheng Qing hesitated, Dong Jinqiu clenched the bow in his hand: "Xiaolang, don't worry, I am guarding the house, and the thieves will make trouble, unless they step on my corpse!" ”
Cheng Qing didn't hesitate anymore and handed his hand to Meng Huaijin.
Meng Huaijin grabbed her wrist and took her on horseback.
When the horse galloped, Cheng Qing clung to Meng Huaijin's clothes, and she had to keep a certain distance from Meng Huaijin, otherwise her chest would hit Meng Huaijin's back...... Although it has been wrapped in cotton cloth, it is hidden under the clothes and the curve cannot be seen, it is really about to collide, the elasticity is still very amazing, Meng Huaijin can detect the abnormality as long as he is not stupid!
