It's already summer, but the entire Cining Palace is chilly.

The Queen Mother's hands and feet were cold, and there was a buzzing sound in her ears, and she was relieved for a while.

"High-ranking officials, glory and wealth, you all have it," the Queen Mother's voice trembled, "What more do you want?" It's enough for so many years.

I suppressed you, I didn't want you to be too arrogant, it was not a good thing for the Zhang family, but you refused to listen, and they all disappointed me one by one, and in the end Zhang Yuci and Zhang Yucong both lost their lives, I thought you would take it as a warning, but I didn't expect you to ......"

The Queen Mother looked very old: "One day I won't be able to protect you, and there is nothing I can do to get to this point." ”

Zhang Yuchi's face changed slightly, he had already guessed the attitude of the Queen Mother, but in the end, the Queen Mother still had to bow her head.

"That kid isn't the emperor's, is it?" The Queen Mother looked at the baby in the palace people's arms, "How could it be so coincidental that a child was born." ”

Zhang Yuchi's face did not change: "The children born in the palace are all from the emperor, and the celebrant also has records, and the emperor once favored the palace people." ”

The Queen Mother closed her fingers: "You learn King Jian's set very quickly, if you really have King Jian's ability, I will also try my best to help you, but it's a pity...... The Zhang family is already reluctant to be a relative, how can they have the spare strength to ask for anything else. ”

When Zhang Yuchi heard this, his face flashed with disgust, and he stood up: "The Empress Dowager is also the Zhang family, could it be that the Empress Dowager wants to see the emperor punish the entire Zhang family?" ”

The Queen Mother couldn't help but smile when she heard this, and the laughter echoed throughout the Cining Palace, sounding terrifying: "The emperor can't punish the Zhang family, but I'm afraid that when the time comes, the Zhang family will fall into the hands of others, and the result will be even more miserable." ”

"Who?" Zhang Yuchi said, "Song Chengxuan? He is also difficult to protect himself, how can he come out of the southeast in the face of the entire Wang Shi? By the time he came to his senses, the world was settled. ”

The Queen Mother straightened her face and swept over the faces of Zhang Yuchi and Zhang Jingshu: "One or two are fools, if you do your best to assist the emperor and let the emperor get rid of the Wei Wang Party, maybe the emperor will read your great merits and let you have a good death......"

The Queen Mother didn't finish speaking, and Zhang Yuchi didn't have the patience to listen any longer, so she stood up and said coldly: "I hope the Queen Mother will take care of herself, and the Queen Mother will need the Queen Mother to preside over the overall situation when the new emperor ascends the throne in a few days." ”

Zhang Yuchi walked out, Zhang Jingshu also got up to salute the Queen Mother, turned around and stepped out of the palace gate.

The door to the main hall was slowly shut.

Inch by inch, the sunlight receded from the temple.

The Queen Mother's whole person seemed to be plunged into darkness, she looked at all this in a daze, only feeling deep despair, and she was not so afraid when the emperor died.

The sky above her was literally falling this time.

……

Zhang Yuchi instructed Zhang Jingshu: "You take care of the prince personally, as long as the prince is there, you will be safe and sound." ”

Zhang Jingshu nodded: "Second uncle, don't worry." ”

Zhang Yuchi left with the people satisfied, and when he passed by the Heart Cultivation Palace, he turned his head to look at the main hall, and wanted to push the door of the hall and sit on the dragon chair now.

Zhang Yuchi finally looked away, he had been patient for so long, and he was not missing this moment.

Although most of the people in the palace have been replaced by his own, before the emperor dies, he can't be too conspicuous, so as not to lose a big one.

Zhang Yuchi walked to the gate of the palace, and the deputy general immediately stepped forward to say: "My lord, the secret letter from the northern Xinjiang has arrived, and the Tatar soldiers and horses have moved. ”

Zhang Yuchi frowned: "The generals' cannons are all carried to the city, if they dare to approach, they will immediately fire the cannons to deterrence." "There can be no chaos in northern Xinjiang, and even if there is a war, it must be resolved quickly.

What the hell is going on with the Tatars, they clearly said that after a while he will open the horse market, what good can the Tatars do now? He conquered several cities, and the Tatars had not learned a lesson from them?

If he didn't have a big gun, he might have panicked, but now he is not in a hurry, it will take some time to re-stabilize the situation, but it will not affect the overall situation.

The adjutant general said in a low voice: "My lord, do you want to send someone back to take a look?" ”

"No," Zhang Yuchi was very confident in his arrangement, "those Tatars can't make big waves, and no one in the Great Zhou knows Tatars better than me." ”

As soon as the deputy general was sent away, Zhang Yuchi was about to ride back home, and someone hurriedly came: "My lord, the northern Xinjiang has sent a war report, and the Tatar soldiers and horses have been found in the monolith fort and the Sihai Metallurgical Institute, and the monolith fort has been at war with the Tatars, and the Tatar soldiers and horses are attacking the city day and night, I am afraid that something will change." ”

Zhang Yuchi's eyes sank: "Order other guards to go to the rescue, tell the soldiers defending the city not to panic, the Tatars heard the news of the rebellion of the Wei Wang Party, and want to take advantage of the chaos to disturb the border, as long as they lose some men and horses, they will leave, and they will soon have a turnaround in the next few days." ”

I didn't expect things to be so smooth, if the emperor hadn't escaped at the beginning, there wouldn't have been so many twists and turns, Feng Shun didn't know what he was doing, and he didn't make a move to the emperor for a long time.

Zhang Yuchi's originally calm heart added a little more anxiety.

What is the situation in northern Xinjiang? He was entangled in the affairs of Beijing, and he could not go to check it immediately, hoping that the war would be stabilized in the next two days.

……

The big ship of Quanzhou moved forward with all its might, and after breaking through the interception of the imperial court, the ship went all the way north and soon arrived at Jinzhouwei.

Xu Qingan only felt dizzy when he got off the boat, but he didn't dare to delay and continue to hurry.

Finally, when it was dark, I got off the horse and rested.

Zhang Feng stepped forward to support Xu Qing'an: "I haven't seen the prince of the world for a few years, but I don't get tired of the carriage and horses, I am really heroic." ”

Xu Qing'an's exhaustion suddenly disappeared for the most part, and in the days without Zhang Feng, he always felt that something was missing, eating was not fragrant, and sleeping was not steady, but now it was finally complete.

Xu Qingan fell his gaze on Qi Defang who was not far away.

Xiaofang is also here, and now only Zhang Zhenren's miscellaneous hair is missing.

Probably because he and Xiaofang have already started a family, Zhang Zhenren is afraid of touching the scene, so he always dodges in front of him, and when he is kind, he wants to comfort Zhang Zhenren but has no chance.

Xu Qingan was thinking about it, only to see Zhang Zhenren walking over quickly: "The grain and grass are ready, and Ma Dudu's soldiers and horses will soon come to join us." ”

Xu Qingan followed Zhang Zhenren to see the grain and grass, a cart of grain and grass and baggage were placed in front of him, he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Zhenren: "The past two years have been good." ”

Zhang Zhenren and Daoist Qingling have been preparing grain and grass in northern Xinjiang, just to be useful when the war begins.

If it was usual that Zhang Zhenren would roll his eyes twice, and then fight with him, Xu Qingan was ready, but he didn't expect Zhang Zhenren to smile "hehe", as if he had a handle in his hands, and he didn't dare to argue with him.

"Senior brother."

Saying this, another man came up.

Zhang Zhenren was stunned, and he just wanted to shrink his head and escape.

Xu Qing'an looked over and saw that the person who came was wearing a Taoist robe, tall and tall, and his eyebrows and eyes were very similar to those of the Qingling Daoist, the difference was that the Qingling Daoist had a calm face all day long, while his eyebrows were stretched and his face was kind.

This is not the Qingling Daoist, and his name is Senior Brother Zhang Zhenren, Xu Qingan seemed to understand something, he looked at Zhang Zhenren: "This Daoist is he, he is ......"

The expression on Zhang Zhenren's face became more and more ugly, he was sneaking and hiding because he was afraid that this scene would happen, but he didn't expect it...... It was still seen by the prince.

His reputation was all in vain, and he could almost feel his skin fall to the ground with a cracking sound.

Xu Qingan saluted the man, and then pulled Zhang Zhenren aside.

Zhang Zhenren's face was dead.

Xu Qingan finally asked: "Zhang Zhenren, is this your junior sister?" ”

Zhang Zhenren swallowed, he stiffened his neck and didn't want to admit it, but a big living person was here, how could he quibble.

Xu Qingan had already seen the answer from Zhang Zhenren's face, and he immediately let go of Zhang Zhenren, with a ghostly look: "Zhang Zhenren...... I didn't expect ...... You're ......"

Zhang Zhenren hurriedly explained that when they were children, their brother and sister were very similar, and later ...... He was about blinded by an eagle's peck.

Xu Qingan came to Zhang Zhenren's side again after a while: "There is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not." ”

Zhang Zhenren closed his eyes, waiting to accept Xu Qingan's ridicule, who told him not to have long eyes, he deserved this result.

"Your junior sister is too burly, fortunately, you have taken a fancy to it, otherwise it will be a lifelong destiny," Xu Qing'an said, "It's not easy for a woman to grow like this, now that the beauty is by your side, I'll help you think of a way together...... Maybe ...... soon"

After Xu Qingan said this, for some reason, he felt that Zhang Zhenren's gaze suddenly changed, as if he was looking at a fool?

How? Did he say something wrong?

Zhang Zhenren straightened his chest and breathed a long sigh of relief, he knew that this was the result, what else was he hiding.
