On the second day of the Lunar New Year, there are more people on the street who go back to their parents' homes to pay New Year's greetings, but there are always some weird and uneasy firecrackers in the intermittent sound of firecrackers.

Wang Dong's dog became very strange, and kept walking around the yard restlessly, even if Wang Dong walked over, it had to bark wildly with its eyes puffed up.

Two days later is the beginning of spring, there was snow before Chinese New Year's Eve, now I only feel colder, when Wang Dong went out, but unexpectedly found that many cats ran to the street.

It's really strange that cats, animals that have to hug the brazier when they burn their hair, why are they not afraid of running around in the cold?

I'm afraid he's going to live in the palace tonight, and he deliberately wears an extra one inside the cotton robe. Walking outside the palace gate, I happened to meet several officials who had received the notice from the chamberlain and went to the palace to wait to see the prince.

"Happy New Year, Lord Wang! You also got a herald? I thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not come, but I didn't expect it to be delayed on the way. ”

Wang Dong snorted vaguely, and said with a secret smile: Tomorrow you will know that it is not the prince who is coming, but the emperor!

There are many officials above the fourth grade, and everyone also found that even some old ministers who don't meet each other also appeared in the main hall. It's still the New Year's Festival, and when we meet and say hello to each other, they are also happy.

After waiting for a long time and not seeing the crown prince come out, the attendants carried the stools and rushed in, and Gonggong Qin said with a smile:

"Everyone, don't be impatient, the prince is sympathetic to you, and I give you to sit and wait."

Zhang Yan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Didn't the prince just pass the Dongchang Mansion?" How could it be so fast? It can't be a mistake, right? ”

"Don't worry, Master Zhang, there will be no mistakes. Tea will be served later, and I will not neglect all adults. ”

After saying that, Gonggong Qin retreated, leaving the confused ministers looking at each other. Among them, the people who understood were peacemakers, and they sat down in groups.

King Han also received a quick letter today, saying that the firecrackers in the Dongchang Mansion caused a fire on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the prince and Lord Huyan took advantage of the chaos to escape.

"A bunch of idiots! The people who were locked up in the dungeon also ran away for him! ”

The king of Han tore the letter in half and threw it into a brazier and burned it, and said to his guards: "We will return to Le'an today and take the land route." ”

Zhu Zhanji is still alive, and he cannot risk appearing at tomorrow's return ceremony.

He called Liu Yongtang and asked him to bring a message to Zhu Wenzhi, and he went to Beizhili to cooperate with him.

Zhu Wen had already left the city and gone to Xiaoling by this time. He was ready to shoot and had to send.

It doesn't matter if King Han is not there, he has already helped himself control the imperial city. The ministers above the fourth rank were all locked in the imperial city.

Just waiting for dawn, he led his troops to set off from Xiaoling.

When Zhang Yue woke up, he felt that his bed was shaking slightly. No, not his own bed, because he had already seen the pink gauze tent and the Lanxi girl beside the bed.

"Is that you?"

Zhang Yue propped up half of his body, only to feel that his right ear hurt badly.

"I didn't expect them to use snake venom instead of drugs."

Lan Xi's face was cloudy, she didn't know why she heard that they were besieging Zhang Yue in Yifu, and she would send a ghost to wait outside Yifu, and she didn't even know why she would save him.

It's like not knowing why you're alive.

"Snake venom?" Zhang Yue reached out to touch his aching earlobe, but Lan Xi held his wrist:

"Don't move, I squeezed the poisonous blood before, and there were some crushes, but your ears are finally saved, and you don't have to cut off your ears to save your life."

"Cut off the ears? Isn't it that the lanyard on the hat can't be hung? ”

Zhang Yue had a smile on his face, he looked at Lan Xi and said, "If you save me, aren't you afraid that Zhu Wenzhi will kill you?" ”

Lan Xi sighed and said, "It turns out that you really know Your Highness. Sister Du said that you are here to trick me, I still don't believe it. ”

"He's just a clown who jumps off the beam, how many days can he have to follow him? The court has an army of millions, and sooner or later it will come and exterminate him. You have been hiding on the Qinhuai River for 20 years, when the time comes, where will you be able to hide? ”

Zhang Yue sat on the edge of the bed, and Lan Xi saw that he was going to bow his head and take his boots, so he squatted down and helped him put the boots on.

"Your parents? ……”

Lan Xi shook his head and said, "My father contracted malaria on the way to escape, and my mother took me to Qionglong Mountain, so I couldn't survive, so I could only follow me to Qionglong Mountain. ”

"Then Hu Yanjin is also a member of Qionglong Mountain, right?"

Zhang Yue had some heartache for no reason.

He ...... Unlike us, he does not think that such revenge is right, and he says that it is only the people who suffer from infighting. ”

"I don't believe that Zhu Wenzhi will indulge him."

"Perhaps, he has to rely on his father now, and he will ...... in the future" Lan Xi smiled bitterly: "What can people like us talk about in the future?" Whoever is the emperor is enough, as long as he can give us a way to live. ”

"You've told me everything, aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"

"If you kill me, you won't change anything? His Royal Highness has already led a large army into the city. ”

A smile appeared on Lan Xi's face, she lifted the curtain of the small window, looked at Zhang Yue and said:

"I don't want to see you die, whether it's poisoning or breaking into the palace to die, so, after detoxifying you, feeding you the drug, you have been asleep on the Qinhuai River for two days."

Zhang Yue looked out and realized why the window was shaking so much, it was a small boat, parked on the opposite bank of those painting boats in Duchun Mountain.

He sighed, went back to the bed, locked his eyebrows and said, "Okay, tell me, how is Zhu Wenzhi now?" Could it be that the walls of Tianfu failed to withstand his attack? ”

"Do you know who was in Yifu to arrest you that night?"

"Who?"

"The commander of the Beijing army is the same as Wang Dong."

"You mean, Wang Dong is also Zhu Wenzhi's person? Najing Army ......"

"So he opened the city gate and welcomed His Royal Highness into the palace. Hundreds of civil and military officials had already gathered in the palace, and they all knelt down to welcome the new emperor back to the court......"

Zhang Yue fell asleep, Lan Xi followed Miss Du to the outside of the palace, and saw Zhu Wenzhi, who was wearing a dragon robe, and walked into the palace gate.

At that time, the scene was very strange, because there was a ground movement in Yingtianfu, the houses in the whole city shook, and the old houses collapsed from time to time, and it didn't take long for it to shake again, but it was not so violent.

And when Zhu Wenzhi's army came, the ground movement completely subsided.

Some people spread among the people, saying that the first emperor was not right, and the new emperor had just changed the name of the era, and God had punished him.

Now it's the son of Emperor Jianwen, and this is to set things right.

"Ground moving?"

Zhang Yue remembered that two days ago, there was also a slight shaking, but it was only for a moment, and it was ignored by everyone.

"In fact, since the year before last when he went to Qionglong Mountain to recognize his relatives, he began to plan to return to the court, which was originally carried out in the north and south at the same time, and later, Shuntianfu was repeatedly frustrated, so he retreated back to Tianfu."

Due to the ground movement, the water of the Qinhuai River also became turbid, and on the rippling boat, Lanxi told them about uniting all parties and finally sending the new emperor to the Jinluan Palace.

"Today all the gates are closed, and you can't get out. Now, we're all the same, always so involuntarily. ”

Zhang Yue shook his head and said:

"No, you're wrong, not everyone lives so selfishly. If we don't do something, what awaits us is war. Ying Tianfu is just a lonely city, and Zhu Wenzhi can't hold the 30,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. ”

"But now everyone believes that God is helping him."

Zhang Yue was silent.

Perhaps, he should have found the originator of this statement:

Spend money.
