Chapter 448: The Flames of the Imperial Capital
It is rare to have such an opportunity, Hua Lan has always been worried about Concubine Xian, seeing that she has such a good plan, of course she will not let it go, and hurriedly said: "Lan'er has nothing to do with it, if the concubine Niangniang can return to Min'an with her mother, it will be too late for Lan'er to be happy." ”
She pretended to be coquettish, pursed her mouth and thought about it, and smiled sweetly: "Lan'er is just curious about the palace." It's better for the mother to leave two old grandmothers, isn't there still a little flower, and there is a sister-like figure, she is now staying in Kangning Mansion. She can also enter the palace to accompany Lan'er for a few days. She has kung fu in her, and she is not afraid that anything will happen to Lan'er. It would be better for the concubine and her mother to go tomorrow, so that Lan'er can catch up with her if she rides a fast horse. It's just just two or three days, maybe Lan'er will be able to catch up if it doesn't reach Min'an. ”
Min'an is more than 2,300 kilometers away from the imperial capital, and the carriage is relatively slow, and it takes more than ten days to walk. Hua Lan was right, if she rode a fast horse to catch up with the carriage, it wouldn't take a few days to catch up.
Concubine Xian thought about it, and asked the concubine's opinion: "Do you really want to leave here in such a hurry?" ”
"What are you waiting for, sister, without further ado, it will change later?"
Now that the emperor has no cold jade, almost all the generals have been sent out, and most of the people in the palace have decreased. The concubine is worried, saying that she is going to Min'an, but it is a good place to take a break for a while, anyway, the limelight is difficult to grasp now, and it is a good strategy to avoid it for a while.
So, he urged: "Lan'er is right, the carriage is a little slow, and she can catch up with it even if she rides a fast horse, without further ado." ”
She said, she couldn't eat anymore, put down her chopsticks and stood up, and hurriedly got up: "Ouch, I have to leave tomorrow morning, there are a lot of things to pack, I have to go first." ”
She hurriedly walked out, walked to the door, reached out to push the door, hesitated and stopped, turned her head and thought for a moment, and patted her head: "Ouch, look at me panicking, like I have no soul." It looks like something really big is going to happen. This is unprecedented. ”
She looked at Concubine Xian, who was very surprised, and let out a sigh of relief, and then said, "Sister, let's clean up as soon as possible, and I'll arrange the carriage when I go back." I always feel terrified, let's leave tomorrow morning. ”
After the concubine finished explaining, she didn't wait for the stunned concubine to speak, and hurriedly turned around and returned to the palace.
She arranged it quickly, and in the evening, the old palace people panicked and told her, "Niangniang, it's not good to look." I heard that the streets outside the palace are all messy, and there are notes everywhere, saying that they want to kill? ”
The old palace people didn't dare to continue, they bit their tongues fiercely, and looked at the concubine with a fluttering look.
The concubine had already arranged the carriage here, and the things were packed up, and she glared at her calmly: "What's the panic, aren't there still guards and secret guards outside?" What note zi, kill what kill? ”
The old palace people bit their tongues so painfully that they didn't dare to say it, and they hesitated in embarrassment.
"Say, no one here cuts off your head, say whatever you want!"
The concubine was very displeased with the old palace people's devotion and vomiting, what was the big deal? She secretly had a plan in her heart, and asked the personal palace maid on the side: "Xiaozhu, there's nothing going on over there, right?" ”
"Back to Niangniang, everything is in accordance with Niangniang's orders, and everything is ready."
Xiaozhu was also a little flustered at this time, what happened to the master, how did he lose his soul? At this time, after listening to the advice of the old palace people, he lost his soul, and reminded the concubine in a low voice: "Niangniang, or the slave maid will also go out of the palace to take a look." If something really happens, the mother should prepare early. ”
Xiaozhu and the people of the old palace are their loyal slaves, the concubine felt the crisis at the moment, her eyes glared, and she said to the old palace: "When is this, do you want to kill the palace?" Still not telling the truth? ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Empress! ”
The old palace people gritted their teeth, in case all these rumors were true, the master was safe, and he could be safe, so he knelt on the ground and said: "But the big thing is not good, the notes outside the palace are flying all over the sky like snowflakes, and they are all written to kill the emperor." It is said that one finger can get ten thousand taels of silver, and a piece of meat is twenty thousand taels of silver. The emperor's head is the most valuable, a full 90 million taels of silver, and what are the marquis of ten thousand households. Niangniang, with so much silver, even the ten-year-old doll outside has a murderous intention towards His Majesty. ”
"Is this going to be the other way around?"
The concubine was so shocked that she almost jumped three feet, and the ten-year-old little doll got up to kill? If Kyoto City is defeated, won't the entire imperial capital become a cauldron? Emperor Jiayuan had to be boiled when he came back.
After she squeezed her hands and turned back and forth in the room a few times in a frightened heart, she decisively ordered the old palace people and Xiaozhu: "Xiaozhu quickly go and ask Concubine Xian to take a sedan chair to the palace gate, and the old lady hurriedly went to order the carriage, and we will leave." ”
When Mama Li heard this, her feet ran as fast as if she had been smeared with oil. Xiaozhu also went to Hele Palace in a panic, saw Concubine Xian, and hurriedly urged: "Concubine Xian, my mother said, please leave immediately, the sedan chair has been prepared outside the palace." You'd better pack up your things and follow the slave, right? ”
Concubine Xian and Hua Lan sat and talked, and they were shocked when they saw Xiao Zhu, who looked flustered, and when they heard her words, they couldn't help frowning inexplicably, "Leave now, so urgent?" ”
"Yes, Concubine Xian, there is a lot of chaos outside the palace now. If you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to go again. ”
Xiaozhu was anxious, and her words were not clear, and her face wrinkled into bitter melon: "In short, the mother wants the slave to come over and invite the virtuous concubine Niangniang, so you can hurry up and go with the slave and maid, right?" ”
She was so anxious that she couldn't do it, Hua Lan naturally knew it, so she persuaded: "Mother, it's all about leaving early and late, not everything is packed up." It's better to leave, you can rest assured to go to Min'an, if there is anything here, Lan'er will definitely bring the news to you as soon as possible. ”
Hua Lan said as she instructed Xiaohua: "Go and get all the things." ”
Xiaohua is very clever this time, she can see it. Without Xiaoju and Leng Yu, she was too comfortable and relaxed. Now that she can go to Min'an with Concubine Xian, she is very happy. Even more fart-bustered Zhang Luo went.
When Concubine Xian saw it, she had to change her clothes, took a soft sedan chair and the concubine out of the palace, got into a carriage and left the imperial capital, and went straight to the direction of Min'an.
As soon as Concubine Xian left, Jin Se appeared next to Hua Lan and said to her: "Everything is going well outside, Wutou asked the dude, is this palace destroyed or stayed?" ”
Staying will be an endless disaster after all, Hua Lan regretfully stroked the exquisite carved patterns outside the window, and sighed: "Burn it, wait for the virtuous concubine and the noble concubine to leave the imperial capital for twenty miles, and then burn!" ”
Twenty miles to the end, Xiaozhu was hurriedly chasing the carriage, turned around sharply, and screamed in surprise.
I saw that the entire sky above the imperial capital was filled with billowing smoke, like a vicious black dragon, constantly circling and jumping, that is, hideous and terrifying.
"Mother, the palace is on fire, the palace is gone!"
