On the same day, it was decided that An Shuli would leave Beijing, and immediately sent someone to invite the five princes. The fifth prince hurriedly came to the East Palace, and after hearing about this, his face turned white, he looked at An Shuli, then at Hua Yan, and finally at Mei Shuyu and Cheng Guzhi, and suddenly felt that a towering mountain was pressed on his head.

He stammered, "I...... Can I stand up to it? ”

An Shuli looked at him and smiled, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and with a heavy blow, the fifth prince was shorter and stood up straight again, he said, "You have to have confidence in yourself, the crown princess has taken you to the north for a while, you have been back in Beijing for half a year, you have been in the court for half a year, and you have not made a mistake, what are you afraid of?" The crown princess will stay in the capital, but you can't pay attention to it, and you can't clean it up, just ask the princess. ”

When the fifth prince heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Not to mention that it is for the fourth brother, but for the fourth sister-in-law and my nephew, I have to stand up to the court even if I grit my teeth." ”

"That's right." Mei Shuyu's heart was full of blood, "Don't be afraid, in addition to the prince's cousin, there are so many people in Beijing, Master Cheng is also there, in addition, Xia Ze and Xiao Shiyi have been in the Hanlin Academy for half a year, you should make it, although they are small, but their brains are not small, and they are smart." ”

"Hmm." The fifth prince nodded and asked, "When are you leaving?" "I went to the palace to see the emperor, and before dawn, I left Beijing." An Shu said, "The matter is urgent, the sooner the better." "The five princes bowed their heads.

Mei Shuyu said, "I'll go back to the camp of soldiers and horses in Beijing right now, tidy up the soldiers and horses, and I'm waiting for you outside Beijing." ”

An Shuli nodded, "Okay." ”

Cheng Guzhi said, "I'll also go and prepare grain and grass now." ”

An Shuli thought for a while, "My eldest brother can escort grain and grass." ”

Cheng Guzhi's eyes lit up, "I was thinking about who to send with the army to supervise the grain and grass, and now it's him." Then I sent for him. ”

An Shu left his head, "In recent years, although he is ridiculous in terms of women, and the inner courtyard is a mess, he is not confused about business. ”

Several people discussed it properly, An Shuli soon entered the palace with Hua Zhuo's letter, Mei Shuyu and Cheng Guzhi also acted separately, and Hua Yan and the five princes were left in the study in a blink of an eye.

The fifth prince looked at Hua Yan, "Fourth sister-in-law, your face is not very good, let's go back and rest!" ”

Hua Yan shook her head, "It's okay, I can't lie down when I go back." The words fell, and he instructed, "Xiao Wu, you will find me a copy of the roster of the Imperial Forest Army, the Praetorian Guard, and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, and I will record them in detail." ”

The fifth prince was stunned, "The fourth sister-in-law is not worried about the soldiers and horses in the inner city?" ”

Hua Yan said, "After all the soldiers and horses in the Jinglu Soldiers and Horses Battalion are transferred, there will be only soldiers and horses left in the inner city in the capital. There must not be the slightest mess. ”

The fifth prince was stunned, "What the fourth sister-in-law said is, I'll go now." ”

Hua Yan nodded.

The fifth prince hurriedly walked out of the East Palace, the study was quiet, Hua Yan turned around and sat down at the table, and said to the other party's grandmother, "Grandma grinds ink for me." ”

Mama Fang looked at the big stack of folds on the table, piled up like a hill, this is what An Zaifu has not yet come to review today, she looked at Hua Yan with a big belly, "Princess, you can't be tired." ”

"Don't worry, I'll put it down when I'm tired, Xiao Wu hasn't been cultivated by his father since he was a child, although Yun Chi has taught him a lot, but he only has limited learning about the affairs of the court, An Zaifu left, only I can help him support the court, how to review this fold, I am proficient."

In the previous life, she annotated too much in place of Huaiyu, and when she stayed in the study with Yun Chi in this life, she accompanied her to sort out the folds by category, and occasionally imitated his handwriting to let him save trouble and rest early.

Therefore, these twists and turns are not difficult for her. The only reason is that she is pregnant, so she can't be too tired.

Mama Fang nodded, "The slave maid sharpens the ink for you, you must rest when you are tired." ”

"Okay." Hua Yan nodded.

Most of the twists and turns these days are still about the follow-up matters of the major families, and Hua Yan did not imitate other people's handwriting, but used her own handwriting and upright fonts to review the folds.

Mama Fang waited on the side, thinking that the crown princess's words were really good, and they were no worse than Her Royal Highness.

In the palace, when the emperor saw An Shuli coming in a hurry, with a solemn look on his face, he knew that he was afraid that something urgent had happened. When he saw Hua Zhuo's letter and listened to the results of An Shuli's discussion with Hua Yan and others, he sat up on the bed with a pale face, and said decisively, "I'm right." ”

In any case, Yun Chi can't have an accident, he must stop 500,000 soldiers and horses, An Shu left, not only Hua Yan was relieved, he was also relieved.

The emperor immediately drafted a holy decree in his own hand, handed it to An Shuli, and instructed, "Be careful in everything, no matter what method you use, you must stop the 500,000 rebels." ”

"Yes." An Shuli took the holy decree with both hands and did not leave immediately, but suggested, "The ministers came to the palace all the way, and after thinking about it carefully, I am afraid that the five princes will not be able to suppress the courtiers at all, and the emperor's body and bones cannot be too tired now." The minister has a suggestion. ”

"You say." The emperor also felt that the five princes did not have an Shu to leave these two times, and now although the turmoil in the government and the opposition has not left much aftertaste, but Wuwei Hou is still locked up in Dali Temple, and it has been closed for a month, and no one is allowed to take advantage of the time when the soldiers and horses in Beijing are transferred out of the capital, and take the opportunity to make trouble, and the five princes are still too immature.

An Shuli arched his hand and said, "The minister implores, the emperor has issued another holy decree, ordering the crown princess to assist the five princes in supervising the country." ”

The emperor was stunned and looked at An Shuli in surprise, "Huayan? She is pregnant, she is a month old, and it is not suitable to work, let alone a woman, how can she supervise the country? ”

An Shuli Zhengse said, "Although the princess is old, but she is not bedridden, she can still work, if it is not for the minister, General Mei, and Lord Gu to resolutely stop her, the princess will personally take the Jinglu soldiers and horses camp to intercept, the princess has a good belly, a chest of hills and ravines, and she is in the capital, and the minister is very relieved." Now that the South Chu River is in danger, it is the time to employ people, Zhao Qingxi has already been promoted exceptionally, and he has set a precedent. Do you think that the crown princess's talent is not as good as Zhao Qingxi? ”

The emperor shook his head, "How can her talent not be as good as Zhao Qingxi?" It's just that her body is not good, and now she is pregnant, and she is a month old, let her stand in the court, it is inevitable that there will be opposition, I am afraid that she will not be able to withstand it. ”

An Shuli smiled, "The emperor is too worried, the crown princess has a stoic character, can bend and stretch, has strategy, courage, and more heart, and will not be unbearable, you can rest assured." Originally, the minister thought that the crown princess was behind the scenes and it was good to help the five princes stabilize, but when he came this way, he thought that the five princes had never reviewed the folds, and he still needed the crown princess to listen to the government. ”

The emperor sighed, "Well, according to what you said, I will start to go to court from tomorrow, and although I can't approve the recitation, I can still persist in going to the court every day." ”

"So the minister will be relieved." An Shuli saw that the emperor agreed, and he also admired it in his heart, although the emperor was ill and incompetent for a long time, he was not greedy for power, and he listened to the persuasion of others, let go when he should let go, and establish his authority when he should be powerful, it is enough.

The emperor immediately wrote another letter asking Hua Yan to cooperate with the five princes to supervise the country, and handed it over to An Shuli to take out of the palace.

An Shuli returned to the East Palace, and sure enough, he guessed correctly, seeing Hua Yan reviewing the folds in the study, he smiled and put the holy decree in front of her.

Hua Yan raised her eyebrows, glanced at An Shuli, opened the holy decree, and smiled after reading it, "I was thinking about going to the palace early tomorrow morning to ask my father for a holy decree, but I didn't expect you to think about bringing it back to me first." Thank you very much. ”

An Shuli smiled, "I thought about it again and again on the way, you still have to stand in the court, and the five princes can't suppress the courtiers." If the emperor's body and bones are too hard, I am afraid that it will be harmful to the number of life, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told me repeatedly before leaving, if you can not let the emperor work, you will not let him work, the emperor needs to rest in bed to recuperate, and if he is well-healed, he can have two or three years of life, if the cultivation is not good, it is difficult to say. ”

Hua Yan pursed her lips, "On the day of the palace banquet, the emperor was still fundamentally injured, and he couldn't raise it back. ”

"You have to pay attention to your body, too." An Shu said, "Zhao Qingxi has figured out six things these days, and many things can be left to her." You can't work too hard, no matter what, Your Highness is the most important. ”

"I know." Hua Yan stood up, reached out and patted An Shuli on the shoulder, and said solemnly, "Shuli, take care of yourself." Be sure to stop 500,000 soldiers and horses and bring Mei Shuyu back safely. In this world, you are indispensable to assist Yunchi in governing the peace of the four seas, and you can't pick a picker to hide from the lazy. ”

An Shuli also looked upright, "Don't worry, even if it's for my mother, I can't." ”

Hua Yan saw that there was still time, and talked in detail with An Shuli about the topography of the Divine Doctor Valley, and the two of them agreed on the method of deploying troops, and they agreed on a few opinions, and after that, An Shuli quickly took the secret guard out of the East Palace and went to the household department, An Shuye had been informed by Cheng Guzhi, with the grain and grass ready, the two brothers went out of the city together, and met with Mei Shuyu's Jinglu soldiers and horses, and went to the Divine Doctor Valley.
