Chapter 208: Big Trouble

It was dawn, Qingwan almost forgot where he was now, and in the next room there was Rong Chen asleep on a roll of straw mats, he curled up in a ball, like a wounded kitten.

Leaning against the wall, Qingwan suddenly felt as if something had stung her skin.

When I peeled off the lime on the wall, I saw that there was something in the bronze shape hidden inside, which looked like a sword, but how could there be such a thing here?

While Rong Chen hadn't woken up yet, Qingwan hurriedly continued to dig inside, and it was all empty.

"What are you doing!"

The carriage and horses drove into the imperial city, and Mrs. Li and General Li sat in the carriage, looking at each other and saying nothing to each other.

The coachman who was driving the car outside and the maid sitting outside the car didn't dare to say a word. The two only dared to look at each other silently, and then sighed softly.

"Who? Where is the name of the worship palace? ”

The guards at the side gate blocked the carriage's path, and the coachman and maid scrambled to lift the curtain.

I saw a woman's hand stretched out inside, and in her hand was an arrow, which was a famous brand given by the emperor, which was only available to several important ministers of the previous dynasty.

Soon the guards got out of the way and let the carriages and horses into the imperial city.

"Why don't you wait for me to write a prayer post and enter the palace? Take out your father's arrows, and don't people think that we are pampered and proud, and that we can do whatever we want as important ministers? ”

Li Zongze blocked the arrow in his wife's hand and asked her to put it away quickly.

Since receiving the holy decree, it has only been an hour, and the cold sweat on his head has never stopped.

"Hmph, I'm afraid the emperor thinks that he is the only one in the country, and we are all like mustards, so we can abandon them at will, right?"

As soon as Mrs. Li's words came out, General Li covered her mouth, "You whisper to me!" This is the Royal Palace! ”

After entering the palace gate on another floor, the carriages and horses could no longer enter, and General Li and his wife could only get out of the car and walk, and they had to be led by the palace maid or eunuch in charge.

"You said you, what are you looking for your queen cousin? We should have avoided suspicion as relatives, but now we are still rushing to ask for help? ”

General Li muttered in a low voice, but was scolded back by a sharp look from his wife.

General Li had no choice but not to say a word, and followed the palace people with his wife into the queen's Funing Palace.

The queen had already known the news that they were coming long before a stick of incense, and General Li was a former courtier who could not see the queen, so he could only wait outside the Funing Palace.

When the queen heard the news that the two of them were coming, she sent someone to invite the emperor, and Mrs. Li entered the Funing Hall with her front feet, and the emperor took a sedan chair to the Funing Palace.

The emperor didn't come, and the queen didn't dare to see Mrs. Li easily, so she only asked her to wait in the reception hall, and she said that she was still dressing up and asked her to wait.

"You don't want the head on your head if you don't obey the order, right?"

Li Zongze knelt on the ground, and the emperor didn't even look at him on the sedan chair, but he was angry that there was no one available in the government and the opposition recently.

"The minister is guilty, the lady is forced by her life, the minister is loyal and loving, and he is willing to accept all punishments."

General Li has always been the unruly Marquis of Dingyuan in the eyes of the people of the Eunuch Palace, but he didn't expect to be so low-voiced this time.

The emperor got off the sedan chair, just glanced at General Li out of the corner of his eye, and walked straight towards the Funing Palace.

The eunuch beside the emperor gestured to General Li, prompting him to get up and follow up.

"The emperor has arrived!"

Hearing the loud voice of the eunuch, the queen inside also opened the door of the dormitory.

When the queen saw the emaciated emperor, she knew that she must not have had a good rest in the concubine's Hongluan Hall these days, so she asked the palace maid next to her to make a cup of wolfberry chrysanthemum tea.

"Your Majesty, my cousin came to see me in the morning, and I ......"

As soon as the queen greeted her, she was interrupted by the emperor before she finished speaking, and the emperor raised her hand to signal that she didn't have to speak anymore, and the queen could only obediently shut her mouth.

"I know that the husband and wife don't want to think about my country, so I don't have to think about them."

"Your Majesty!"

When the queen heard this, her heart suddenly pounded, although her cousin was arrogant since she was a child, at least she was her support outside the palace.

Now that the concubine is favored, she is not as good as a concubine as a queen, if it weren't for the support of her family outside the palace, she would probably be pulled off the horse by the concubine.

"How?" The emperor looked back at the queen, he hadn't seen her for a long time, and found that she was much cleaner than before.

A queen is not graceful and luxurious, but simple and kind, just like his mother.

"I will take care of you and your family."

With the emperor's words, the queen was easily relieved, and met General Li and Mrs. Li in the main hall of the Funing Hall with the emperor.

"Come in!"

The emperor sat in the main hall of the Funing Palace, and only then did he remember that the last time he sat here was during the Chinese New Year last year.

It's time to see the palace, and he hasn't even sat here with the queen for a whole year.

Seeing General Li and Mrs. Li enter the door together, the emperor couldn't help but pinch the handle of the chair when he looked at them, and the couple was the same as Wu Wen and his wife, Qin Se and Ming, and even resisted the decree together.

"Mrs. Li, why don't you let General Li go on the expedition? Is it dissatisfaction with my decision? ”

Mrs. Li lowered her head, the corners of her mouth curved, and she smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is reluctant to go to the general, first, because the general's old illness in winter is of no benefit to the war.

The second is that because of the child's early death, Yu Zongzuo has no Mian, and the third is that the first emperor has a favor, if there is no queen in the family, the Li family can not go to the expedition.

The concubine body is just a female stream, considering the husband, the ancestral hall, and the first emperor, it is the life of the concubine. ”

"Haha."

The emperor sneered, always thinking that the queen's cousin was still as rude as when she was a child.

Unexpectedly, now she has become aggressive, and she is a woman of loyalty and filial piety with one mouth.

"It seems that I have to leave General Li behind because of reason, public and private?"

Both General Li and Mrs. Li knelt on the ground and did not say a word.

"Okay!"

The emperor stood up and walked in front of Li Zongze, "Divorce your wife, are you willing!" ”

Suddenly, Madame Li and the Empress all looked at the emperor in surprise.

The emperor actually came up with such a countermeasure, if there was no such wife, General Li would be a general who could only serve the country loyally.

General Li looked at the emperor in a daze, and he didn't expect the emperor to say such a thing, could this war not be escaped?

"The father-in-law is as kind to the ministers as a mountain, and the ministers can't. The minister is willing to go out with his wife to be loyal and filial! ”

Mrs. Li looked at General Li, her eyes were almost popping out, she raised her hand and was about to move the long sword on Li Zongze's waist, but she was held back by Li Zongze.

These actions all fell in the eyes of the emperor, he just watched silently, Li Zongze was able to understand the general situation so much, and it was unexpectedly for him to focus on the government and politics.

"In that case, I hereby allow you two to go out of the city again tomorrow, so as not to live up to my expectations."

Mrs. Li and General Li went out of the palace together, although this trip did not prevent General Li from going to the army, but after all, Mrs. Li was relieved, she did not have to be separated from her husband, nor was she coerced into the palace to force her husband to fight for the country.

"It's good now, you got your wish, you still have to go."

General Li sighed, but she was very happy to meet Mrs. Li's smile.

"Where am I worried about you, I don't want to be separated from you."

Outside the tent, all the sergeants watched as their general was shackled. The morning mist lingered around people, and a chill drifted around.

"General."

A soldier suddenly burst out of the queue and was quickly pulled back.

If he did not comply with the order, Wu Wen could only be escorted back to Beijing to wait for interrogation.

Wu Wen was alone with shackles, the crown and hairpin on his bun were cleaned, and when the wind blew, his hair fell down, looking no different from a beggar.

The soldiers could only watch as their general, who had proudly led them to the brink yesterday, was now reduced to a prisoner.

At first, everyone didn't understand why the general's wife was killed, until the news that the lady was the daughter of King Zhen'an came, and the soldiers who were originally as strong as a stone fell apart in an instant.

"After all, that's the daughter of King Zhennan."

"How many brothers died in the rebellion of the king of Zhennan, and his daughter should also pay for it."

"Who dares to guarantee that the general is loyal to His Majesty, after all, he is the son-in-law of King Zhennan!"

Such rumors are like sharp arrows all pierced into Wu Wen's loyalty, there is no way, no one can control people's hearts, and no one can control people's mouths.

Wu Wen was dressed in cloth clothes, wearing shackles, and went directly to the prisoner car back to Beijing.

The weather was already cold, and he was only dressed in a single shirt in the prisoner car that was leaking on all sides, and his face was frozen purple in less than a stick of incense.

And the only thing Wu Wen was worried about was his wife who escaped from the ascension to heaven, he didn't want Qingwan to fall into the hands of the emperor, let alone Qingwan in the hands of King Zhennan.

As long as she can be safe, even if he Wu Wen will die here, he will undoubtedly be willing.

Qingwan took advantage of Rong Chen's failure to wake up and kept digging the skin of the wall until half of the wall was hollowed out by her, and she finally saw what was hidden in the wall.

It turned out to be all weapons, and obviously not from this era, but from ancient times.

Money.

Falling in Qingwan's eyes, these antiques are simply priceless, if they are all loaded into a car and taken away, she and Wu Wen can be carefree for the rest of their lives!

"What are you doing?"

Qingwan was a wealth fan just staring at the bronze in front of her, completely forgetting Rong Chen next door, she didn't know when he walked behind her.

"I ......"

Qingwan couldn't say why, after all, she secretly picked up the wall skin of Rong Chen's house to find these bronzes, and the mentality of being a thief came to her mind.

"What are these?"

He didn't even know what these were? Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is an antique hidden in the wall skin of your house, if you can take it out and sell it, you can buy the entire Liang Kingdom."
