Chapter 113: The Storm is Coming

Bai Su nodded very solemnly, "Uncle Cheng is in charge of the peace of Chang'an, and there will be chaos at that time, I hope he can be prepared." Even if you can't change anything, at least you can ensure the safety of your Cheng family. ”

Cheng Xiangjin looked into the distance, looking at the smoke rising from the distance and it was hard to believe that there would be his one in the near future.

"Could you be mistaken? Will it really be as serious as yours? ”

Bai Su bowed his head helplessly, "Don't forget, I'm Old Man Hua's only apprentice." Just look at the phenomenon, and you can't be wrong. When the words fell, he leaned into her ear again and whispered: "Believe me, this person will be opposed!" As the words fell, he grabbed her hand and wrote a word in the palm of his hand.

Cheng Xiangjin saw it clearly, was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Got it. I'll tell my father. ”

Talking about such a shocking news, Cheng Xiangjin really couldn't arouse his interest in appreciating flowers and tasting wine, looked at the red sunset in the distance, and finally spoke.

"Send me back! Thank you for today! ”

She didn't thank him for anything, whether it was to thank him for accompanying her birthday, or to thank him for telling her such an important and secret news. In short, even she herself was very confused, her mind was chaotic, and she just wanted to tell her father the news as soon as possible.

On the way back, Bai Su still held her shoulders, holding the remaining half of the jar of wine and glass wine vessels, and returned to Chengfu along the original road.

Xu had the experience when he came, or maybe because he had something in his heart, Cheng Xiangjin was taken to the air again to accompany the wind, and he didn't have the initial fear.

She opened her eyes and looked at the neat streets and houses where she entered, and her heart was full of worry.

If Bai Su's judgment is right, I don't know how long the peace and stability in front of him can last?

My father has been in court recently, have you heard any clues?

Bai Su sent her back to the Magnolia Courtyard and left. The half jar of wine and the set of glass wine utensils were kept for her.

Before leaving, he half-jokingly waited for her to come back in the future and drank the half jar of wine with her.

Cheng Xiangjin smiled, and his nose was faintly sour.

After Bai Su left, she went directly to Cheng Fuyin's study with a heavy heart. knocked on the door, and sure enough, Cheng Changan was inside.

"Jin'er, why are you here?"

Cheng Xiangjin hesitated for a moment, and told him the words he had thought of on the road and Bai Su's original words.

Cheng Changan was shocked into a cold sweat when he heard this.

Cheng Xiangjin saw that his face was not very good, and hurriedly asked, "Father, did you already know about this?" ”

Cheng Changan didn't answer, but looked at her and said very seriously: "Don't mention this matter again, don't tell anyone about it, including your grandmother and wife." ”

Cheng Xiangjin knew the seriousness of this kind of thing, and nodded as if he was sure.

"Father, what are you going to do next?"

Cheng Fuyin didn't have a clue about this matter, he rubbed his forehead very tiredly, and finally sent Cheng Xiangjin out.

In the next few days, as if confirming Bai Su's prophecy, within three days, the news of King Changyang's death quietly spread.

Although the queen and others tried their best to conceal the spread of this matter, the news still blew like the wind throughout Chang'an City.

As soon as this news came out, the entire Chang'an seemed to be ready to move.

Two days later, news came out of the palace again. When the emperor learned the news of the death of King Changyang, he couldn't afford to be sick, and hundreds of officials knelt outside the palace to ask for the prince, but they were blocked out of the heavy palace door.

The emperor stopped the morning court for five or six days in a row, but those ministers who were worried about the country and the people still knelt outside the hall day after day, rain or shine, waiting to see the holy face.

After a series of defeats of many old ministers, the door of the emperor's bedroom was finally opened.

The terminally ill emperor summoned a number of important ministers in a row, and after a day and night of deliberation, in the early morning of the second day, a prince's will finally gave a reply to the hundred officials.

The fourth prince, Xiao Yunhe, was established as the crown prince.

As soon as this decree came out, the Manchu Dynasty was shocked. Especially those officials who are sure that the crown prince must be the king of Anping, they are the first two big.

King Changyang has passed away, and now how do you look at the forces in this city, King Anping should be the most capable of being the crown prince. However, the emperor bypassed him and did not stand up, and set up Xiao Yunhe, the fourth prince who had not yet been crowned king.

Is it because the four princes are born from the queen?

But they looked, over the years, it was obviously Chen Guifei who was more favored?

The hundred officials were completely confused by this decree this time!

This emperor's heart is really unfathomable! Not the average person can guess about it!

When the will of the prince came out, some people in Chang'an City were happy and some were worried.

When King Anping learned the news, he rushed into the palace to meet the emperor many times before the canonization ceremony, but he was blocked from the order on the grounds that the dragon body was not safe.

Chen Guifei also cried and shouted and knelt outside the palace gate every day to ask to see her, but except for the queen and the four princes, all the concubines were blocked out.

After the crown prince ceremony, the old emperor's body was even worse day by day. Chang'an City seems to be covered with a thick layer of dark clouds, as if there will be strong winds, lightning and thunder at any time.

Things have developed to this extent, and the hundreds of officials in the DPRK and the central government have also smelled a dangerous breath to varying degrees.

Cheng Chang'an has been up and down in officialdom for 20 years, and naturally he has also sensed the tension and happiness that is about to come, especially the situation from the death of King Changyang to the present, which almost confirmed Bai Su's expectations step by step. This had to make him more cautious and pay attention to this matter.

There is no way, the old mother at home is still there, and a pair of children are not yet married. He had to plan ahead.

After dinner, the family gathered in the old man's room as usual, but the atmosphere in the room tonight was exceptionally peaceful.

"You asked Yi'er to send the three of us back to Meixian County, so what should you do with Yang'er?"

It was Mrs. Cheng who spoke, perhaps she was too shocked to hear Cheng Chang'an's proposal, and her tone couldn't help but be a little excited, and at the same time, she was full of deep worries about her husband and son who were about to stay in Chang'an.

Cheng Xiangjin had Bai Su's reminder, and he had already expected that there would be today, but he was more calm at this time.

Cheng Changan glanced at a pair of children, and finally fell on Cheng Chuyang.

He tried his best to relax his tone, and said to Mrs. Cheng comfortingly: "Yang'er has already entered the court as an official, so naturally he can't leave easily. Letting Yi'er send you back to Meixian is only a temporary expedient measure. When the city is peaceful in the future, I will naturally have someone pick you up. For now, it's just just in case. ”

"But we are a family, at this juncture, how can I bear to watch you stay with your son?" Mrs. Cheng's eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Cheng Changan looked at the old lady in embarrassment, and the old lady said directly to Cheng Chuyang: "What does Yang'er think?" Would you like to stay in Chang'an with your father? ”

Facing the old man's question, Cheng Chuyang hesitated. As the son of Cheng's family, he naturally agreed to his father's arrangement. It's just that looking at Mrs. Cheng with a mournful expression at this moment, it is finally a little difficult to speak.
