Chapter 250: The Night Palace (I)

In there was a steam engine ship

From the port, the coastal detour, to the imperial capital, it only takes ten days

The emperor still attached great importance to Fang Xin, and specially sent a total fleet of 12 sailors and 6,000 soldiers to escort him back to Beijing

At this time, although it is a coast, the waves are rolling, rushing and roaring, which makes people thrilling.

Fang Xin was dressed in a grandson's crown robe, his eyes were like paint, and he was looking far away on the deck at the moment, his attitude was calm, and he was full of bearing, which taught people's hearts.

If this kind of demeanor is not ascended to the throne of the grandson, it is ridiculed, but when it is the grandson, it is necessary, if not, it is secretly said: "This person has no image of a king!" ”

This is also a helpless thing

Feng Feng, the eighth grade of the internal supervisor, accompanied him, and of course Fang Xin also brought Gao Shiming, and the sixty government soldiers were the descendants

The maid Lu Xiang also followed and became the female official of the grandson

In addition, there was no one around, so Fang Xin finally frowned and said: "Gonggong Feng, Lone is just the king of Changtu County, and there are also the prince and the king of Xingtai County on it, I don't know why, let Lone be the grandson?" ”

"Taisun. This is the emperor's will. It is also a blessing that you were born with. "I've known each other for nine days. The master finally asked. If you don't ask. This city is too deep...... Feng Feng, the eighth grade of the internal supervisor, replied respectfully. I thought about it. This master can ascend the throne as emperor in the future. It's better to sell it. It's not too secretive anyway. And he said, "The prince has gone." It is said that the king of Xingtai was implicated. ”

This sentence is said. Fang Xin immediately understood

Emperor Changzhi. There were four sons. But the third son died before he was a minor. The second son is Fang Xindi's father Li Gang. He was crowned the hereditary king of Changtu County. He also died young

The eldest son, Lee Cheuk-hee, was originally the crown prince. But he was not very smart since he was a child. Most importantly, it is. Weak constitution. Not only can you not practice martial arts. And I can't read for long. Naturally, the emperor was greatly disappointed. That being said. But the position of the crown prince is still relatively stable

Everyone knows the news that the emperor is seriously ill. It is estimated that once the car died. The crown prince succeeded to the throne as a matter of course. These four uncles are the kings of Xingtai County. I couldn't bear it. It's difficult

But he was caught by the old emperor again. Traces were revealed

The crown prince is dead, although the prince also has a son, but only three years old, if it is a peaceful and prosperous world, this grandson is inherited by the prince's son, it is also a matter of course, but after repeated changes, the foundation of the court is shaken, and if the three-year-old child ascends the throne, I am afraid that there will be an immediate overturn

If the emperor is in good health, he can wait for ten years, but now that he is seriously ill and knows that his time is short, of course, he must choose a relatively older person who is his own children and grandchildren to inherit - so Fang Xin's appointment as the grandson seems unexpected, but it is actually reasonable.

Fang Xin just let out an "ah".

Every morning and evening, he prayed for incense, worshiped his grandfather and the emperor, and wished him good health, don't think that this hand is too numb, but the old emperor has experienced great changes between his sons, and the most important thing is this affection, so this is returned to the emperor's ears, and the big thing is done.

Moreover, it is also the best way to be in his current status and age

After waiting for a while, Fang Xin asked again: "Then is the Imperial Capital of the Shore reliable today?" ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness Taisun, we will dock from Shanglukou, which belongs to Yunhe County, Jiuding Prefecture, and live in the official yamen for one night, and we will go together tomorrow morning, and we can rush to the imperial capital that night." Feng Feng, the eighth grade of the inner supervisor, replied.

Fang Xin nodded, and said nothing

After waiting for a while, Feng Feng, the eighth rank of the inner supervisor, said again: "Your Royal Highness, it's windy outside, you better go inside!" ”

Fang Xin nodded, then turned around and entered

As time passed, dusk gradually fell, but at this time, a large area of thick clouds gathered up, covering the setting sun, adding a bit of ominous and terrifying to the twilight night.

However, the boat is already close to the pier and does not have to worry about the storm

But when he arrived at the dock, a person screamed: "The Holy Master, the grandson has come to listen to the order." ”

The people present were shocked again

Fang Xin hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and knelt down: "Listen to the holy oracle!" ”

"The Holy Master's Statement: Taisun will enter Beijing immediately, without delay, and go straight to the palace to see me, and the officers and soldiers along the way must not stop it, Qin this!" The man screamed.

The faces of the people present suddenly changed greatly, this situation basically only appeared when the emperor was critically ill, Fang Xin raised his eyebrows and said, "Respectfully receive the holy oracle!" ”

As he spoke, he suddenly heard a spring thunder, although it was not very loud, but it shook people's hearts. Then, a little bit of rain fell, and Feng Feng, the eighth grade of the inner supervisor, saw the sky, and couldn't help but say: "This, how can you hurry now?" ”

The eunuchs who came to deliver the holy decree also saw the overlap, the sky was dark, the lightning in the dark clouds in the twilight appeared from time to time, although the thunder did not sound, the rain continued to fall, and they did not dare to urge.

After all, the object is the grandson, not an idle official, the spring rain is cold, and the night is galloping, what if something happens?

"Feng Feng!" Fang Xin suddenly said in a clear voice, with a kind of majesty.

"The ministers are waiting!" Feng Feng couldn't help but respond

"Immediately wrap a crown of the grandson in a heavy tarpaulin, bring your Qinchaguan defense and military talismans, and go to prepare immediately." Fang Xin immediately commanded: "Also, immediately order, prepare some dry food to divide." ”

"The ministers are under the orders of the grandson!" Feng Feng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood.

"Zhang Chenggui!"

"The last general!" Zhang Chenggui was the commander of the forbidden army with the army, and he did not dare to slack off, so he responded.

"Immediately mobilize the war horses that can be found nearby, the musketeers don't have to follow, pick up the guards and warriors, immediately respond to the order, prepare within half an hour, and the rest of the personnel will set off tomorrow!"

Zhang Chenggui responded awe-inspiringly, and after saluting, he immediately selected elite soldiers, he understood what Taisun meant, musketeers are useless in this weather, and if they want to use them, they will use traditional elite warriors

"Gao Shiming!"

"The last general!"

"You go and quickly mobilize the people in the mansion and get ready to go!"

"The last general understands!" Gao Shiming responded, he understood that these sixty people were the descendants of the grandson, and they were the most important core to turn the situation around at a critical time, and they must all be brought away

"Who is this father-in-law?" Fang Xin said to the eunuch who had just delivered the decree.

"Don't dare, slave Yang Yan visits the grandson!" A series of thunderous orders made this eunuch suddenly see the grandson, and his tone immediately became gentle and respectful.

"You have a holy decree, but you can open the city gate and return to Beijing at night, please go together at night."

"It's a minion's duty!" This Yang Gonggong said.

Before he could finish speaking, dark clouds filled the sky, and suddenly a lightning bolt illuminated the sky and the earth, and almost at the same time, the raindrops crackled and fell.

There was a big station nearby, and as soon as it was called, there were two hundred horses, so Fang Xin immediately ordered, selected two hundred people, and rushed back overnight, but at this time, the rain fell, and there were ice chips hidden in it, although it was not hail, but it hit the neck and face, and it hurt faintly.

"Taisun, this rain is too heavy, do you want to rest overnight before leaving?" Seeing this situation, Feng Feng, who had been arranged, couldn't help but change color, if this kind of weather continues, half of the people will be sick tomorrow, and the others will be fine, but Taisun must not have anything to do.

"Nonsense, Lone will return to Beijing immediately after the holy decree, even if the sword mountain and the sea of fire have also broken through, not to mention the rain!" Fang Xin said coldly, and directly turned over on the horse, this posture immediately made the hearts of the people behind him moveβ€”very skilled in equestrianism.

Even the grandson got on the horse, and the others had nothing to say, so they got on the horse one after another, and when they saw an order, two hundred people galloped out and walked into the distance

Of course, fortunately, this is an official road, and it is very spacious all the way to Beijing, so I am not afraid of getting lost

Galloping horses hurry

In a moment, there was another thunderclap, and the raindrops fell head-on, and the blow hurt, Fang Xin was the first to gallop in front, but the speed was still controlled - it was too fast for the horses to stand it

The rain rained for a while, and finally eased, but it was still dripping, and the rustling sound on the leaves,

The young man listened to the rain song upstairs, and the red candles were dim. In the middle of the boat, the river is wide and the clouds are low, and the broken geese are called the west wind. Different life circumstances make it different to listen to the rain.

But now, running in the rain, all drenched, and then blown by the wind, it was bitterly cold.

Fang Xin himself has martial arts, and his lips are also cold, presumably everyone else is the same.

The samurai are just strong, and it doesn't matter for a while, those eunuchs are ......

Those two eunuchs are Qincha, and it is up to them to go straight to the imperial capital to prove their identity, so even if they are tied, they must be tied to horses and boiled until the imperial capital

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, the two eunuchs were stiff and unable to move. The internal organs were tumbling and rushing, and he began to vomit with fever and vomiting, so Fang Xin had to be tied to the horse and continue to walk

Galloping all night, when I arrived at the end of the ugly night, it was about half past three in the night, and finally arrived at the city gate

According to the rules, the city gate must be opened at the end of the day, but of course there are patrols, Fang Xin called the door with the holy decree, and the gate general did not dare to slack off, checked the holy decree, but still did not open the door

Fang Xin didn't expect to encounter this, he was furious, glanced at it, remembered his name and appearance, and immediately turned to other doors, fortunately, the emperor had twenty-four gates, not far from each other, but the second door was opened

"Let's go, let's go to the palace at once!" Fang Xin gave an order in a hoarse voice, and the group held the imperial flag high and rushed straight towards the palace!

At this time, it was the deepest hour of the night, the sky was as dark as ink, and the cold wind swept by

Suddenly, someone in front of me shouted and asked, "Who is it?" No sedan chair riding is allowed here unless specially ordered! ”

Suddenly, Fang Xin knew that he had reached the imperial road within the scope of the imperial palace, and the Yang eunuch struggled and shouted: "In accordance with the emperor's hand, let the grandson enter the capital and enter the palace overnight, and give the horse permission to enter the palace quickly!" ”

At this time, the palace gate was also seen from afar, and Fang Xin was not verbose, untied the holy decree from the oilcloth, and took out another decree.

At this time, the night watchman and the guards also came up, holding glass lamps

At this time, the rain was heavier, and the mines in the sky were ringing continuously, which was terrifying, and the lightning slashed one by one, and the holy decree was checked under the eaves of the palace, and the head of the guard hesitated for a moment, and finally let it go

Fang Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, put down the hand holding the hilt of the sword, and led people straight in, the horse's hooves stepped on the green bricks of the palace, mixed with the sound of the rain, and there was a roaring thunder, it was really a good night!
