Chapter Forty-Seven: The Guards Cause Trouble to the Palace
Have a pleasant journey, the capital is fast, and it's still okay to ignore the assassinations and roadblocks on the way.
Chang'an didn't understand a little, why did Daddy Shen still hunt down and kill his son?
Isn't it just that you don't cooperate with the treatment, and you can use ruthless hands? But seeing Shen Yu's silent appearance, it is estimated that he was hit and his mood was heavy.
After settling down in the Shen family's courtyard in the capital, Chang'an hesitated and took out the note.
Shen Yu looked at it and was silent for a long time before he said, "Xiao Wu, do you remember the mysterious person who gave you the Youyou Xuanyu at the beginning?" β
"Of course I remember, it was that person who instigated the second master to lead the second young master to poison the eldest young master, how did you find that person?"
"Although the second uncle did something he shouldn't have done in his delusional heart, the second uncle is not a stupid person, and the second uncle has also been the head of the Shen family for a period of time.
So, do you think the second uncle will easily trust a stranger? I checked all the accounts of my second uncle in those years, and finally found some clues.
That person has maintained a cooperative relationship with the second uncle for many years, so the second uncle will trust him. β
With Shen Jiayunwei here, it is natural to investigate the news, which Chang'an believes.
"The man...... Now surnamed Meng, he is a guest of Shengjing's royal family. β
Eminent? The Wang family? Chang'an thought of a possibility, his note was given by 'Mr. Meng'? But I can't find a fit, and I always feel that something is missing?
"The eldest young master said 'now', so what was his previous surname?"
"Tuoba" Shen Yu finished speaking, not letting go of any expression on Chang'an's face.
"Tuoba? Beiyi Wang's surname? Chang'an couldn't help frowning, the Beiyi royal family was imprisoned in Yiyou for life, how did they escape?
"Who lives in Que Alley?" It's a little confusing, first sort out the line in front of you, presumably Shen Yu has already sent someone to check.
"Widows and lonely, a bunch of poor people who have nothing to rely on." Poor? A mess of black lines, how can it feel more and more chaotic?
"So, what does it have to do with me? What does the person who left me the address mean? Fundraising? But I don't have any money! "Chang'an wonders, forced donations? He's not afraid!
"Why didn't you kill those thieves on the road?" Shen Yu looked at him, and suddenly asked something irlevant.
"Ah...... I ......, "Chang'an is going to cry, this is a pain in my heart, can we not mention it?"
Isn't it discussing philanthropy, why did you suddenly jump the topic? It's a question I can't answer!
"Bird Alley?" Shen Yu didn't wait for Chang'an to answer, and changed the topic again.
"Don't go! Why should you go? There are so many poor people in the world that I can't even manage myself, how can I take care of so much?
At the feet of the Son of Heaven, the people are not rich in food and clothing, and their survival is not good, so naturally it should be the heart of the emperor who sits in the palace. That's the crime of killing the head! β
Speaking of the emperor, Chang'an is interested in mixing a handful, if he takes the opportunity to kill the eldest princess Le Yi, he will be able to complete the task as soon as possible.
"Young Master, how are we planning to come to the capital this time? Track down the mysterious Meng? Or something else? It was the first time Chang'an asked so clearly, he wanted to know Shen Yu's plan, don't conflict at that time.
After the New Year, Shen Yu will be twenty-seven years old, and his secret hatred of poison has not yet been solved, and time is pressing.
"Well, there's some unfinished business." So simple! Chang'an doesn't know what to say, just be happy.
The surface of the whole capital is calm and calm, and it is still prosperous, but what is hidden under it is the undercurrent of rapids, and there is a sense of calm before the storm!
I went to Li Mingrui's palace a few times, but I was not summoned once, so there should always be a reason to close the door, right? Even the mansion of the Seventh Prince Li Mingqi is also the same 'closed door'.
After a few days, I saw Mu Limo, the prince of the Protector's Mansion, and realized that the situation in the capital was grim.
The old emperor was critically ill, and several princes who were expected to take the throne were left in the palace at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet for the reason of illness. This servant is no longer returned, and the princes are still in the palace to this day.
After the year, the rest period has passed early, but the early dynasty has not been opened, and the courtiers are blocked out of the palace day by day, and the news in the palace cannot be transmitted. This is completely the rhythm of the palace change?!
"Mo Shizi, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, doesn't the Tianyan royal family have an elite royal guard? Why ......"
"You're talking about Tianyintang, this is an elite of the royal family, but for some reason it has gradually declined, the force is not as good as before, and the blame of the guards is almost as a symbolic existence of the emperors of the past dynasties to inherit the throne.
Legend has it that the 'Tianyin Qin' that intimidates the world is enshrined in the palace, and for a hundred years, no one can open it, even the piano box.
It is expected that most of the legends of Emperor Yuansheng and Empress Tianyin were just posterity singing praises. Mo Limo said regretfully.
I see, Chang'an said he understood.
"Mo Shizi, may I also ask, where is the eldest princess Le Yi now?" Chang'an felt that she was not interested in the coup d'Γ©tat, she just wanted to take advantage of the chaos to do something.
Mo Shizi was puzzled that he suddenly jumped the topic, puzzled, and turned to Shen Yu, Shen Yu coughed, and explained, "My mother had a very good relationship with the princess before her death, so she cared. β
Mo Shizi had heard of this, and he knew it, "The eldest princess is also in the palace now and has not returned." β
Chang'an is happy, the time and place are favorable! Seeing the two of them, they were busy with a sad face and mourned deeply.
That night, Chang'an swept out of the Shen family's courtyard and went straight to the palace.
Fortunately, the terrain of the palace did not change much, and with the help of Xiaoluo's topographic map, the target was quickly found.
originally thought that the eldest princess Leyi was imprisoned, and she took the opportunity to pick up a bargain, but looking at the situation in the palace, the princess and the 'thief' talked very happily, and she was not like a hostage at all.
Could it be that the princess was involved in the palace change? Or is it the rebel side? Brains in water, princess! In this case, things are easier to do, and you don't have to do it yourself.
Chang'an hid his figure and scurried around in the palace, no, it was to reconnoiter the enemy.
Sure enough, in a side hall, I saw several princes under house arrest, Li Mingrui and Li Mingqi were inside.
Although the main hall is not small, the slightest movement will still attract attention, and it is inconvenient to contact.
Li Mingrui sat alone behind the desk, bored to pick up the pen to write, suddenly his fingers stiffened, and a messy 'Shen' character appeared on the paper, as if someone was dragging his handwriting.
With a joy in his heart, he put a question mark behind the word Shen, and then nodded an ink dot with his hand without obeying the call.
Is it Shen Yu? I don't know where he found the strange world, how could he be like this...... The method of transmission. I hurriedly wrote a line of words, and sure enough, the paper disappeared from my eyes.
Li Mingrui sat alone to write and paint, at first a few princes came over curiously, seeing that he was just practicing calligraphy, he felt bored, and he didn't know what this palace change would become, and the fifth brother was still in the mood to practice calligraphy, so he really didn't know what to say.
For two hours, Chang'an was delivering various news for Li Mingrui, running back and forth. Even brought news to the old emperor who was imprisoned in the hall during his illness, and the emperor was sick and dying, and it was estimated that he was unwilling to hold on to his breath.
The palace is heavily guarded, but fortunately there is a hidden skill, otherwise it would be really helpless.
Seeing that the time limit was approaching, Li Mingrui finally arranged many matters, and finally took out a letter and a token, wrote a word Yu next to it, and watched the items in front of him disappear, so he relaxed and waited for the opportunity.
At dawn, Chang'an returned to the Shen family's courtyard and handed over the letter and token to Shen Yu. Shen Yu burned the letter immediately after reading it, and then called four guards to give various orders, and the power of the Shen family's capital was probably dispatched.
Chang'an was a little curious and asked, "The fifth prince is a good candidate?" β
Shen Yu thought for a moment and said, "No." β
"Then you are still so ......" do your best, and you look tired?
"Didn't you choose it?"
"Ah, I'm just looking for it casually, and I don't know anyone else!" The joke was a big deal.
"Who is it, and what does it matter?"
"That's what I said, as long as Princess Leyi is ambushed, it has nothing to do with us who sits in that seat."
"You have an obsession with the princess."
"Really? She poisoned you back then, shouldn't I have an obsession with her? "She's 20% of me, she's not obsessed, she can't complete the task.
