Chapter 252: A false alarm

"March 23 of the thirteenth year of Zhenguan. The original Hangzhou Don't drive Chen Cang, and Wu Chengci and others led the soldiers of the Hangzhou West Battalion to brazenly attack the Hangzhou East Battalion, which was loyal to the imperial court. At the same time, Shi Ouyang Zihui, the former governor of Hangzhou, personally led nearly 400 soldiers and guards to rush into Hangzhou Assassin's Mansion to burn, kill and loot, and did all kinds of evil. The minister couldn't bear it anymore, so he resisted, killed more than 300 rebels, and captured Ouyang Zihui, Chen Cang, Wu Chengci and others who took the lead in the rebellion alive......"

"On the night of March 23, the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, 40,000 troops from the Jiangnan Provincial Protectorate besieged the city of Hangzhou. Fortunately, with the help of General Zuo Xiaowei Duan, he repelled the rebels at the east gate of Hangzhou. In view of the imminent danger of Hangzhou, the ministers ordered Ouyang Zihui, Chen Cang and others to be transferred to the Zuo Xiaowei military camp for detention. The ministers eat the king's fortune, bear the king's worries, and defend Hangzhou to repay His Majesty's kindness......"

"On March 24, the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Shi Ouyang Ziming, the governor of Huainan Province, led more than 20,000 troops to arrive outside Hangzhou and gathered with the rebels of Jiangnan Province. The number of thieves reached 60,000, and the momentum soared. The minister led more than 1,000 soldiers in the eastern battalion of Hangzhou. The 5,000 Zuo Xiao guards and horses allocated by General Duan held the city and waited for reinforcements to ......"

Li Shimin held Jiang Zhixuan's bloody music, and his hands trembled with anger and excitement. Where else is this a soldier's advice? This is a rebellion, this is a righteous and bright rebellion! Whatever the reason, the two provinces in the south and south of the Yangtze River and Huainan gathered 60,000 troops to attack the city of Hangzhou by force, and this nature has completely changed!

Li Chengqian, who was in the East Palace, received the news that Hangzhou was besieged almost at the time of his front and back feet. Like a bucket of ice water poured on his head in dog days, Li Chengqian became cold from head to toe. Didn't you already send someone to tell them not to act rashly? Who is so bold as to do such an arbitrary thing? Needless to say, Li Chengqian knew that the Protectorate of Jiangnan and Huainan Province could not be saved. Armed siege, this nature is completely different......

The top priority at the moment is to make a gesture as soon as possible and draw a clear line between the two provinces and the Jianghuai Railway. However, among the ministers of the DPRK and China, who does not know their relationship with Jianghuai? Will they believe what they say themselves? Thinking of this, Li Chengqian couldn't sit still anymore. He immediately ordered someone to prepare, he wanted to go to Daming Palace to meet his father, and asked his father to quickly send troops to quell the rebellion. Only in this way can my father believe that the Hangzhou Revolution has nothing to do with him......

The chaos in the court did not have the slightest impact on the harem. The most important thing in the harem now is the health of the eldest grandson's phoenix body. After Sun Simiao prescribed the right prescription, the hospital made the medicine as quickly as possible. Then it was handed over to Xiaoxiao, and Xiaoxiao personally took care of the eldest grandson queen every day.

Seeing Li Shimin being hurriedly called out by Wang De, Empress Eldest Sun's brows furrowed slightly, and then she stretched out again. Turning to Xiaoxiao, he smiled:

"Let's ignore those military affairs, military affairs are the men's worries. This time you saved my life again. What reward do you want? Open your mouth though! ”

Xiao Xiao Yanran smiled: "Sister, don't mention this reward again, not long ago, His Majesty gave him an order, and rewarded the tiger head for the pheasant slave as a companion." As he spoke, he pointed to the maid and Dandan, who were rarely quiet on the edge of the bed, "These two little things each got a piece of jade, and there are countless gold, silver, and money, where can people be so greedy?" ”

Empress Eldest Sun smiled, although she had just started taking medicine, her body was already showing signs of recovery, and she was excited. After listening to the little words, he poked her forehead in disgust:

"It's easy for you to be content, but this has to be left to other people, I'm afraid you've been looking forward to your husband's promotion and fortune. But you don't want to, but I want to remember. The previous reward was that Your Majesty was happy to see you, but this time it was a real life-saving grace, where can I not express it? Come on, let's talk about it! ”

It's funny in the little heart, where is there such a thing in the world. You don't want the benefits, but people must send them to your arms. But then Xiaopiss realized that this might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. After pondering for a while with his head down, he finally decided to seize this opportunity, so he slowly spoke:

"Sister. There really is no need for a reward or anything. My sister and His Majesty gave it to the Jiang family, and the Jiang family has not finished it for several lifetimes. However, the situation in Hangzhou is now unstable. If my sister really wants to do something for my sister, when Su Hang settles down, can my sister take a chance to talk to His Majesty and let Zhixuan come back. Now that Hutou and His Royal Highness King Jin are studying together, my sister thinks that she should simply let Zhixuan come back to be a master for Hutou and King Jin. Don't be scared all day long! ”

Empress Eldest Sun was stunned, she didn't expect Xiaoxiao to make such a request. In her eyes, and even in the eyes of the world, Jiang Zhixuan is a person with a bright future. At a young age, he was already a state assassin, and such a young feudal official was rare in history. If it continues like this, within ten years, it will definitely be Zaifu's talent. And now Xiaoxiao has made such a request, wanting her husband to be the teacher of a powerless prince?

In all fairness, Jiang Zhixuan's talent and character, Empress Eldest Sun are greatly relieved. Let him be a teacher for his most beloved youngest son, and the eldest grandson queen must have raised her hands in approval. But will Li Shimin approve? It took so much effort to cultivate it, Li Shimin didn't let him be a teacher for his son, it was going to be of great use. Otherwise, how could he be put in a Shangzhou like Hangzhou as a assassin at such a young age?

But now that Xiaoxiao has put it up like this, it was the eldest grandson queen herself who took the initiative to ask someone to say it. For a while, I really couldn't refuse, and after a long silence, the eldest grandson queen said with little confidence:

"The stakes are high at this time, and Your Majesty will not necessarily agree. But if I have the chance, I will mention it to Your Majesty and see what His Majesty's attitude is......"

Xiao Xiao Daxi, since the eldest grandson queen agreed, then there is hope for this matter. The two women don't know yet. In fact, the opportunity they want has come.

………………

In the Daming Palace, Li Shimin angrily ordered Right Weiwei and Ying Yangwei to go to Hangzhou to quell the rebellion, while scolding in his heart. The object of the scolding is Jiang Zhixuan, who is now far away in Hangzhou, this little bastard, can't he hold back that momentary anger? Now that there is such a big movement, and the impact is so bad, see how I clean you up!

was angry, Wang De hurriedly came to report: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is asking to see ...... outside"

It's okay not to mention this, but when this is mentioned, Li Shimin's liver is even more vigorous. Why did Hangzhou mutiny? The reason why the two protectorates of Jiangnan Province and Huainan Province besieged Hangzhou City was caused by this rebel. Thinking like this, Li Shimin roared and roared: "Let that rebel get me in, I will kill him today!" ”

Wang De shrunk his neck, and wanted to persuade Li Shimin to extinguish the fire. But after thinking about it, this is an internal matter of the Heavenly Family, although he is the general manager of the Great Interior, it is better to have less involvement in this kind of thing. After saying that, now that Empress Changsun is expected to recover, His Majesty said that he would be killed, but in fact, I am afraid that he will not even move a finger. Thinking like this, I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart. Bow down and go out to proclaim!

Li Chengqian dragged a lame leg, and as soon as he stepped into the door of the imperial study, he knelt down with a puff. almost crawled in front of Li Shimin, and before he could speak, he cried out. Li Shimin was about to get angry, but seeing him like this, after all, this was once his favorite son, and he was the eldest son of himself and Guanyin, after all, he temporarily endured it, and asked impatiently:

"Your queen mother is in good health, and I am not dead. What kind of mourning are you? ”

Li Chengqian was really a little scared, the Hangzhou mutiny, and the Jianghuai rebellion. If this hat were to be fastened to his head, no one in the world would be able to protect him, not even his mother. At this time, seeing that his father didn't seem to be too angry, he knew that things might take a turn for the better, so he hurriedly pinched his thigh, and then sobbed and said:

"Father, the son-in-law learned of the Hangzhou mutiny and the rebellion of the Jianghuai and Huai provinces, and they were anxious. Erchen knew that the ministers of the court and the central government had many misunderstandings about Erchen, and thought that the Jianghuai and Huai provinces were both protecting the government, and most of them were close confidants of Erchen. This rebellion must be related to Erchen. The sons were worried that their father would misunderstand, so they came to explain it to their father. Erchen has nothing to do with this two rebellions, and I hope that my father will be clear. In addition, the sons implore their father and emperor to send troops to quell the rebellion as soon as possible, and the two provinces of Jianghuai are the heavy tax places of our dynasty, and they cannot be messed ......"

In fact, Li Shimin already knew this, and he even knew exactly where the messenger sent by the East Palace was intercepted and for what reason. However, hearing Li Chengqian say this, Li Shimin's mood was much better after all. This disobedient son, even if he is messing around, he still has filial piety, at least he doesn't dare to blatantly rebel and force the palace. And to be able to react so quickly and come to beg him to send troops to quell the rebellion, he does have the courage to break his wrist! Thinking of this, Li Shimin said indignantly:

"I don't need you to teach me how to do things. You go back now, stay in the East Palace honestly, and don't take a step out of the East Palace until the rebellion in Jianghuai and Huai is over, let alone contact any ministers, do you hear clearly? ”。

Can this not be clear? My father said this, at least the current crisis is over. And listening to what my father meant, I'm afraid it's similar to my own plan. The capital protectors of the two provinces of Jianghuai raised troops to rebel, and they must have died too much to die anymore. But that's not all. The father's intention is obvious, that is, to clean up the East Palace and this matter. After all, he is his son, and if such a thing happens, his face will not shine.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian hurriedly thanked him, and then withdrew with his head down and sobbing. As for those people who protect the Jianghuai and Huai provinces, Amitabha, friends of the dead Dao do not die and do not die in the poor Dao, you can ask for more blessings......

Right Weiwei and Ying Yangwei are both the elite of the Tang Army, and the movement of the 40,000 army cannot be hidden from the people of the world. Soon, the news of the Hangzhou mutiny spread to the world. For a while, people were panicked, thinking that troubled times were coming again.

Such sensational news will naturally spread to the harem. On the afternoon of the third day when Li Shimin sent troops to quell the rebellion, Empress Eldest Sun and Xiaoxiao in the Taiye Pool finally knew the news. The reactions of the two were very different, and the little anxiety was no longer just on their faces. The city of Hangzhou was besieged, and the husband defended the city with only 6,000 troops around him. However, the rebels besieging the city of Hangzhou were as many as 60,000 people, and in Xiaoxiao's opinion, this was already a mortal situation.

Therefore, after learning the news, Xiao Xiaoxiao, who was holding a medicine bowl to feed the eldest grandson queen, suddenly sat down on the ground. The strength of the whole body is as if it has been emptied, and the tiger head and the girl next to him are unknown, and they stumble over to help their mother up. Looking at these lovely children, the little worry in her heart finally couldn't be hidden anymore, and two lines of tears instantly filled her cheeks......

A few little guys didn't know what to do, watching their mothers shed tears. Yaya immediately cried, Dandan is a man after all. The tear ducts are not so developed, looking at the mother blankly, and trying to wipe the tears on the mother's face with her immature little hands. As for the tiger head, he was already a little sensible, turned his head to look at the queen mother, and asked immaturely:

"Auntie, what's wrong with my mother? Who bullied the tiger's mother? The tiger head is going to take revenge! As he spoke, he turned to Li Zhi on the side and said, "Brother Pheasant, will you help the tiger head?" ”

Li Zhi also just knew what was going on, and facing the clear eyes of the tiger head, Li Zhi's heart trembled, and he nodded heavily: "Don't worry, Brother Pheasant Slave will definitely help you take revenge!" ”

Looking at Xiaoxiao's appearance, Empress Eldest Sun could naturally understand the worries in her heart. Raise your hand to beckon the palace maids and eunuchs waiting at the door, and ask them to help Xiaoxiao up and sit down. and asked the palace maids to take the little ones out of the house, and then the eldest grandson queen sighed:

"Alas, it's another military disaster, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, every year has been like this, every year has been like this......"

At this time, Xiaoxiao was full of worries about her husband who was far away in Hangzhou, and all she could think about was the scene of some husbands holding Shangfang swords, moon-white robes full of blood, standing at the head of Hangzhou and commanding the remnants of the defeated army to fight against the rebels. For the words of the eldest grandson, I didn't listen to half a word.

When Empress Changsun saw Xiaoxiao's distracted appearance, she was slightly anxious, but she couldn't let her go on like this, otherwise she would have to be stupid. Immediately coughed heavily, causing the palace maids to look sideways for a while, and seeing that the queen had no instructions, they hurriedly turned around and stood up. This time it finally had some effect, Xiaoxiao finally restrained herself, turned to look at the eldest grandson queen with empty eyes, and listened to her:

"Xiaoxiao, listen to me, the book of soldiers says that ten will surround it, and five will attack it. Now although there are 60,000 rebels under the city of Hangzhou, there are also nearly 30,000 imperial troops, and the situation is not as bad as you think! ”

Fang Xiaoxiao only heard the messenger say that the 6,000 troops in Hangzhou were besieged by 60,000 rebels, and he really didn't hear the back. At this time, listening to Empress Changsun talk about it, it was like a person who fell into the water really grabbed a straw. In a panic, he grabbed the hand of the eldest grandson queen and asked eagerly, "Is what my sister said true?" ”

Empress Eldest Sun was a little hurt when she was caught, but she also understood Xiaoxiao's mood at this time. So he nodded heavily and said:

"Are you so unconfident in your husband? As early as the end of February, your husband had already written to His Majesty, asking His Majesty to send troops to take precautions. Not long after you rushed to Beijing, His Majesty sent General Duan of Zuo Xiaowei to lead more than 20,000 elites to Hangzhou secretly. Moreover, do you know who is in command of the 6,000 troops in Hangzhou City today? It is Li Siye recommended to His Majesty by the two of you! He led three thousand Mo sword troops into the city to defend the city with your husband, what do you have to worry about? ”

Every time Empress Changsun said a word, the little tense heartstrings were loosened. Since the husband has been prepared, the situation is really not so bad. But after all, it was a passive situation, and Xiaoxiao was still a little worried.

Seeing that she relaxed slightly, Empress Eldest Sun also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then continued:

"The city of Hangzhou has thick walls and is garrisoned by elite soldiers; Outside the city of Hangzhou, there are still 20,000 Zuo Xiaowei led by General Duan to contain it, where is it so easy for the rebels to capture Hangzhou City? Three days ago, His Majesty had urgently ordered Right Weiwei and Ying Yangwei to go to Yangzhou. Count the days, and these two days should have come. Don't worry when the counterinsurgency army arrives and the rebels will soon crumble! ”

Xiaoxiao was really relieved, thinking about his gaffe, a little embarrassed. And the way he looks is probably scared of his children. So he stood up and said:

"Sister Xie explained, I lost my temper for a while, and I spilled all the decoction, so I'll go back and boil a bowl of ...... for my sister again."

Hearing this, Empress Eldest Sun waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I've already drunk almost enough, just add a little more tomorrow." Xiaoxiao, there's one more thing I want to tell you. It's the same thing you mentioned to me last time, and there's an opportunity in front of you! ”

Xiaoxiao is a little confused, why do you say that there is an opportunity in front of you? But seeing that the eldest grandson queen cleared her throat, she asked her to sit on the edge of the bed, and then said:

"That's right, this time the Hangzhou mutiny, Your Majesty is extremely angry. Not only is he angry with the rebellious army and the two provinces, but he is also very dissatisfied with your husband. Your husband is in too much of a hurry in Hangzhou, so after the rebellion over there is quelled, I'm afraid ...... I'm afraid your husband won't be able to stay in Hangzhou anymore......"

Xiaoxiao soon woke up to the fact that she and her husband had already thought of it. Therefore, I was not too surprised, but the eldest grandson queen actually told herself about it, which made Xiaoxiao a little moved. Is this really thinking of yourself as your own family......

"Sister, what does Your Majesty mean?" If it were someone else, I am afraid that Empress Changsun would turn her face on the spot. But when these words came out of Xiaoxiao's mouth, Empress Eldest Sun just smiled slightly:

"Your Majesty originally wanted to throw him into a cold yamen and let him reflect for a while. But after I told His Majesty, His Majesty muttered for a moment and then agreed. If nothing else, maybe within the year, Master Jiang will be able to transfer back to Beijing......"
