[Chapter 17: Chongjun Coup and Xiao Langgui] (2)
This day is the sixth day of the seventh month, which is not a special day, but Xiao Jiangyuan, who has always fallen asleep easily and sleeps calmly, turned over and over again, and couldn't sleep at all. There was always a feeling of unsteadiness in her heart, which made her clear mind but unable to think clearly, so she simply got up and got dressed, and walked around her private mansion.
Because Jieyu is a three-grade person, princes and nobles and people above the three-rank rank can open their own doors directly on the wall of the fang, without going through the door and enter and exit by themselves, so the door of Shangguan Wan'er's mansion is not open in the fang, but is open to the street. There is a large open space in the gate, and the entrance to the left is the room, and there are people who receive posts every day to welcome and send off guests. After this open space is the main entrance of the mansion, there is a halberd stand next to the main gate, look at the number of halberds on the halberd rack, you will know how many people live in this mansion.
Xiao Jiangyuan was standing in this clearing at this moment, looking left and right. The aconitum door on the wall of the square was closed, the chamber was also dark, and although the main entrance was a little more luxurious, it only looked cold in this few nights.
After being silent for a long time, Xiao Jiangyuan also felt that he was a little inexplicable, so he shook his head, intending to go back to the mansion and sleep peacefully, but he didn't want to just turn around, and he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves, getting closer and closer. She hurriedly bent down, pressed her body against the not-so-high wall, held her breath, and listened.
"Prince Qi, it seems that Shangguan Wan'er is not in this private house tonight."
Li Chongjun straddled the horse, at the head of everyone, and nodded when he heard this: "If she is here, it will definitely be brightly lit at this moment, and her fate will be counted." But what should I do now? Wu Sansi's mansion is in the north of here, across the four squares of Xiuxiangfang, I planned to kill them directly by the way, and then enter the palace to ask the saint for a reward, but if Shangguan Wan'er is not in the private residence, she must be in the palace, if she is in the palace, she must be with Aya, we are all loyal and righteous people, it is not good to kill Shangguan Wan'er directly in front of Aya, right? ”
Li Duozuo said: "The minister thinks that it is better to kill Wu Sansi first, after all, Wu Sansi's mansion is close at hand, but Daming Palace is in the north of Chang'an City, why bother to seek far?" If we go to Daming Palace now, and then come back to kill Wu Sansi, regardless of whether the saint will agree or not, if Wu Sansi gets the news and runs away in advance, will it not be in vain for the prince to work hard? Anyway, General Zuo Jin Wuwei has already occupied all the palace gates at the moment, just waiting for us to enter the palace with Wu Sansi's head. At that time, the prince will lead his ministers and others into the palace, first let the sage know the prince's determination to help Li Tang, and then ask the sage to hand over Shangguan Wan'er, and the sage will definitely agree. ”
Thinking of the saints in the court, Li Duozuo felt both cold and angry. He was not a Tang person, but a member of the Yan tribe, he was brave and good at fighting when he was young, and he was favored by Li Zhiqi to be in charge of the forbidden army and the North Gate Guards for more than 20 years, so when the Shenlong coup d'état, as soon as Zhang Cambodia spoke, he agreed to assist Li Xian, who was still the crown prince, to guard the palace gate and control the situation. However, how long has it been, the heroes have died, they have died, they have died, they have died, they have died, and if they are exiled and not dead, they will be tortured to death by the messengers of the saints.
Thinking about how hard Huan Yanfan's body was, and after being exiled to Lingnan, he was also free of disease and disaster, but he didn't want disaster to fall from heaven, the messenger actually ordered someone to sharpen the bamboo into a seat, let Huan Yanfan lie on it, and others pulled his limbs, dragging back and forth, until the flesh and blood were gone, only the internal organs remained, and when the person was still angry, he was beaten to death. Even death doesn't give people a good time, so why bother?!
Even the cool officials of the reign of the Empress Zetian were nothing more than that. Seeing that the sage did not punish the messenger in any way, but let this cruel thing spread ten times to hundreds, so that the entire Chang'an City was silent for a few days, and even the Prime Minister of Anguo and the princess of Zhenguo closed their doors, Li Duozuo saw it clearly. Although the saint wants to hide the bow as much as possible, it is not so vicious, if it is not for Wu Sansi to slander, how can the saint be killed?
Fortunately, God has mercy on him and bestows it on an ambitious prince like Datang, and tonight he can finally take the traitor and avenge the dead people!
Li Chongjun nodded: "The general is polite." The soldiers listened to the order, and we went straight to the Xiuxiangfang Wu Sansi Mansion. Kill gods when you meet gods, kill ghosts when you meet ghosts, as long as it is in Wu Sansi's house, there will be no one left alive! ”
"Yes!"
The morale outside the wall was strong, but Xiao Jiangyuan felt a little ridiculous. When did the coup d'état become such a child's play, what to do first and what to do later, after the arrow is on the bow, and then discussed? The crown prince only wanted to kill Shangguan Wan'er and Wu Sansi's family, if things changed, wouldn't he be ready to kill them together with the saint queen in order to succeed? As he said, he was too immature and naïve.
Where is this coup d'état, it is clearly nonsense.
But even if it's nonsense, more than 300 soldiers and horses are real swords and guns, and the momentum is violent, it should not be underestimated, and besides, didn't Fang just say that the palace gate was occupied? After they killed Wu Sansi, they should enter the palace and smash Huanglong, they came so unexpectedly, it was late at night, and the odds of winning were great.
Thinking that the blue figure was still in the palace, and he didn't know about it, and thinking that she returned to Chang'an with herself privately, both of them were guilty of crimes, coupled with Li Longji's previous worries about the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiao Jiangyuan calmed down, raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Qianling.
- It's time for me to do something for them, and you see, how am I doing?
Between the Qunxian Fang where Shangguan Wan'er lives and the Xiuxiang Fang where Wu Sansi lives, there are four squares, one of which is called Liquan Fang, which is located in the northeast of Qunxian Fang, the south of Xiuxiang Fang, and the West Market across the street. On the wall to the south, there is a tall aconite gate, every time the West Market opens, people passing by will sigh: "See, that is the Zhenguo Princess's Mansion." ”
Princess Taiping was sleeping well, but suddenly a rapid and gentle voice filled her ears. The voice was familiar, and she immediately woke up, pressing her ear to the slump. After listening carefully for a while, she got up in her clothes, and rushed to the front door, regardless of her disheveled clothes.
At this time, the sound of the horse's hooves had gone away, so she called the commanders of the princess's palace soldiers and ordered them to be ready all night, no one offended me, and if he didn't offend me, he didn't hear anything, and if anyone offended me, he would be told to come and go!
As soon as the order was given, she saw a familiar figure on the wall of the fang, who was lying on her stomach and looking out, and walked over unconsciously and angrily, pulled the man's clothes, lowered her voice, and said, "Erlang, what are you doing?" ”
Xue Chongjian looked at his mother with a pale face, and said solemnly: "A-Niang, I saw ......"
"What do you see?"
"It's the crown prince, and General Zuo Yulin!"
"Lee Chong-jun?" Princess Taiping was taken aback at first, and after thinking about it, she realized it, and chuckled, "How can I ever put him in my eyes on weekdays, but I don't want him to have the courage and ability?" ”
"A-Niang, they are going north, but Daming Palace is in the northeast of Chang'an City, not in the northwest, so they must be ......"
"Naturally, I want to kill Wu Sansi, but after killing Wu Sansi, I don't know who the prince will kill." Princess Taiping sneered and said comfortingly, "You don't have to do anything tonight, just go and accompany your lady." ”
Since the farce in Shangyang Palace, in order to calm things down and consolidate the relationship, Princess Taiping made the decision to let Xue Chongjian marry Wu Sansi's daughter, that is, Wu Chongxun's sister. Xue Chongjian was reluctant to be the boss, but he couldn't disobey his mother's wishes, but fortunately, after getting married, he found that Wu Sansi's daughter was not bad.
Now Wu Sansi is his own Yue's family, and since the prince has chosen a coup d'état, he must have counted the saints in the plan, seeing that the monarch's Yue's family is in trouble but does not go to the rescue, Xue Chongjian felt a little uneasy, but listened to Princess Taiping said in a deep voice: "Tonight, the Zhenguo Princess's Mansion only seeks self-protection, and the rest have not seen or heard anything." The life and death of Wu Sansi's family and the life and death of the saint's family have nothing to do with the Zhenguo Princess Mansion, do you understand? ”
Xue Chongjian looked at his mother in a daze, feeling so strange. Mother usually attracts courtiers and scholars, and it is just a matter of strengthening power, but she has also recruited a lot of talents for the Tang Dynasty and the saints, which can be described as a woman's courage and loyalty, but tonight, my mother doesn't even care about the life and death of the saint's family!
Princess Taiping saw what her son was thinking at a glance, and chuckled and said, "What, do you think A-Niang is ruthless and unfaithful?" ”
"After all, the saint is A-Niang's brother......"
"So what?" Princess Taiping interrupted, "Isn't he still quite suspicious of me? Everything I have at the moment is just a superficial view, and how long it will last, you don't know, I don't know. If one day I climb high and fall heavy, I am his own sister after all, and the only sister, he will not treat me as cruel as to Huan Yanfan, at most only three feet of white silk or a pot of wine, but it is not necessarily for you, I want to ...... He can even do it to Prince Yide and Princess Yongtai. ”
"The saint is already the Son of Heaven, although he is suspicious, but he has not done anything, and he is obviously still willing to believe in A-Niang. Now that the saint is in trouble, as a courtier, how can he not try his best to save him? ”
"The Son of Heaven will never be short of candidates, without him, there is still the prince, without the prince, and King Wen, even if the lineage of Qilang is cut off, there is still the king of the prime minister, if the third king of the prime minister gives the throne, there will also be me......"
“…… Ah, Ah Niang? Xue Chongjian was shocked when he heard such a big rebellious remark.
"I'm just joking, how can Datang tolerate another female emperor from now on? At this moment, you just need to understand that under the nest, there are no eggs, as long as the Tang Dynasty is still there, and the Princess Zhenguo Mansion is still there, you and I can be fine, as for who will be the Son of Heaven......" Princess Taiping smiled sarcastically, "Isn't it all the same?" ”
Xue Chongjian was silent for a long time before finally nodding. When Princess Taiping saw her son like this, she sighed unconsciously, and was about to turn around and step into the main door, when she heard a knock on the door.
There was silence all at once, and everyone couldn't help but stop all their movements and hold their breath.
After a pause, the knock on the door sounded again, still unhurried.
Xue Chongjian wanted to send someone over to ask who was coming, but saw that his mother was still unmoved, and only stared coldly at the aconitum gate, as if she wanted to see through it.
At this time, the knocking on the door stopped again, and a familiar voice came in: "Slave Xiao Jiangyuan, there are 100,000 urgent matters, I want to see Princess Taiping." ”
