Chapter 584: In place
The news of the capital was handed to Li Xia who was fasting twice a day.
Mrs. Ruan's mother and daughter and Li Dong's mother and son settled well in the Lujia Village on Potai Mountain, and Ruan 17 also lived in Beizhuang, entering the city from Potai Mountain every day to Yamen, and then returning to Potai Mountain Beizhuang at night.
Anyway, whether he, the famous thorn in the criminal department, responded on time, from the book of the criminal department to the guard of the gate of the criminal department, they all opened their eyes and closed their eyes, and they didn't see the unity of the upper and lower levels.
He didn't do it badly, just raise his hand and ignore him for small things, this is Zhou Shangshu's words, Zhou Shangshu said that this is what his predecessor Tang Shangshu said.
Jiang Shangwen and Xu Huan waited for Mrs. Huo, Mrs. Xu took Li Wenlan's daughter-in-law Zhu, Mrs. Yan took Huang's second grandmother and granddaughter Li Zhangyu, and the two granddaughters of the second room, Li Zhangmo and Li Zhangli, were one day later than Mrs. Ruan and Li Dong, and lived in Xujiabizhuang at the foot of the mountain.
Mrs. Guo and her daughter-in-law Shen San, Mrs. Hu and her nephew and daughter-in-law Luo Er, continued to live in Lijia Biezhuang, not far from Lujia Biezhuang, dispensing medicine wholeheartedly.
Because Ruyi had a little cold, Li Wennan didn't dare to go out when he watched the child at home, Li Wenmei got Li Xia's message, and handed it to the foot of Potai Mountain to say that he had a little cold, and he would go to visit Suixi when he was ready.
Three days of fasting, the first day of the sacrifice of the ancestors of the Cheng family, the next day, the Empress Dowager Jin and the Jin Guifei two spiritual seats side by side on it, a grand sacrifice, after the evening ceremony, the will of the capital came.
Since the beginning of the year, the atmosphere of slaughter is too heavy, the emperor originally wanted to personally go to the Potai Temple to spend all the wild ghosts and spirits, pray for the country and the people, trapped in the emperor's travel, the honor guard is too complicated and huge and the people are hurting money, and the king of Qin and the princess are specially ordered to go to the Potai Temple on behalf of the Son of Heaven to pray for blessings.
The chamberlain who delivered the decree went out, and Jin Cunyan glanced at the scroll of the decree with disgust, "Is this what the emperor meant, or is it the prince?" ”
"Asha has expected it." King Qin glanced at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi's face was slightly gloomy, Ruan's and Ah Guo were both in Potai Mountain Villa, as well as Ruan Seventeen's family.
"What the hell is she going to do?" Jin Chuyan frowned.
"Lord Wang," Duan Yan's voice sounded outside the door, "the princess is here." ”
The curtain was lifted by Duan Yan, Li Xia came in, saw Lu Yi with a calm face from Jin Cunyan who was tightly wrinkled his eyebrows, and then swept the bright yellow will, and fell on King Qin who greeted him, showing a smile, "Coming?" ”
"Well, here we go."
"What did the princess expect, what are her plans, can't you say it at this time? How long will it take? Jin Cunyan's expression and words were not very polite.
King Qin frowned, Li Xia pulled him, looked at Jin Cunyan, raised his eyebrows slightly, "What I expected, didn't you expect it?" What else is there to say? Do you still want to get together and scold the villain? As for the plan, there is no plan, it's just a move, you've fought a war, even if you expect to be ambushed, what can you do before the ambush breaks out? ”
"When the outbreak starts, I'm afraid it'll be too late." Jin said politely.
"That's about you and General Lu." Li Xia replied even more politely.
"What about you?" Jin clenched his fists.
"Me, the first is not for you to ask, and the second is for you to care." Li Xia greeted Jin Humble, unceremoniously.
"You!" Jin looked at King Qin angrily.
King Qin didn't see his gaze, he was looking at Li Xia.
"Today I'm going to ask Guo Sheng to adjust your people, if you can't be like your arm, ......" Li Xia stuffed his hand into King Qin's hand, looked at Jin Cunyan, and didn't say the rest of the words.
Jin Zhuoyan's face was very ugly, he was bored for a moment, and nodded, "I have explained, how can I summon, Guo Sheng can do." ”
"That'll do." Li Xia looked at Lu Yi, "We still have to wait patiently, it's best to leave early tomorrow, catch up on the way, the sooner we get to Potai Mountain, the better."
Now send someone over and clear out the back of the temple and the courtyards next to it, and we will live there.
If you ask someone to clean up your house, you will say that you are going to live. ”
In the last sentence, Li Xia looked at Jin Cunyan and ordered.
Jin Zhuoyan's face was better than just now, and he nodded.
He can think of what she is going to do, it seems that she has already laid out and is very sure, so that's good.
"Mrs. Ruan is on the mountain, and Lufu Biezhuang is very close to Potai Temple." Li Xia looked at Lu Yidao.
"Seventeen." Lu Yi's eyelids drooped slightly, with a slight smile on her face, "Don't worry, Princess, Seventeen is very capable." ”
Li Xia looked at him, did not answer, and for a moment, bent his knees at him almost to the end.
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, King Qin and Li Xia set off and went straight to Potai Mountain.
Walk very quickly along the way, around noon, the long procession arrived at the foot of Potai Mountain, the abbot of Potai Temple and the monks have greeted the outer mountain gate at the foot of the mountain.
King Qin and Li Xia came on behalf of the Son of Heaven, which was a necessary etiquette.
The royal guards who followed were lined up in two layers, from the foot of the mountain one by one to the entrance of the temple in the middle of the mountainside, inside the imperial guards, it was the Qin Wangfu guards led by Lu Yi, standing from the foot of the mountain to the temple gate, with the King of Qin and Li Xia climbing up the stairs, the guards followed up one by one, half of them along the wall of the Potai Temple, far or near one after another, and the Potai Temple was surrounded by sight, and the other half was stationed in various places in the temple.
The other villages on Potai Mountain, from the foot of the mountain to the mountain, are becoming more and more sparse, and they are becoming more and more rare and noble.
Bezhuang, which is higher than the Potai Temple on the mountain, is mostly hidden among the green trees in the mountains and forests, revealing mystery in the quiet.
The other village in the Sui'an Palace, which overlooks the Potai Temple, is almost completely hidden behind the green trees of the mountain rocks, and only occasionally picks out a corner of the cornices from the green trees.
Under the cornices of a corner of the Potai Temple, in a silent platform, Jiang Yanshi stood in the shadow of the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands, looking at the guards of the Qin Wangfu nailed to various key places outside the Potai Temple, and looking at Lu Yi who was patrolling around the walls of the Potai Temple.
From his point of view, the inside of the Potai Temple is just a beautiful glazed tile and an intriguing cornice.
However, he didn't care about the inside of the temple, and he didn't care much about the guards outside the temple, he only squinted at Lu Yi, saying that he was an enemy of 10,000 people, and he didn't know how many people a General Lu would consume.
……………………
Before and after, Ruan 17 rode a horse and arrived at the gate of the criminal department leisurely, with one foot still stepping on the dismounting stone, and two small officials shot at him from the gate like arrows.
"Seventeen masters! You're here! Incredible! Something is wrong! The two little officials shouted at Ruan Seventeen, shouting with a crying tone, looking at this, they knew that the matter was not small.
"What's wrong?" Ruan Qiqi's cold hair stood up, he was waiting for something big to happen these days, of course he was afraid of something big, he knew too little about this big thing.
"The two death row inmates, Wu San and Wu Da, ran away!" The legs of the little officials are shaking, the big prison is in their hands, and the vicious death row prisoners have escaped, and their lives may have to be put in.
"When did you run? When the sky falls, there is a tall man on top, you are afraid of a fart! Say it! Ruan Qiyi slapped the little official on the head, which relieved the little official.
"Yes, this morning, when the severed head was served, Wu San and Wu Da were gone, and the jailers on duty in the cell were unconscious, and they didn't wake up yet, Zhou Shangshu asked you to find you, and let you wait for him as soon as you arrive at the yamen."
"Has the prince come back? Lord Qin! Ruan Qiqi asked abruptly, making the little official stupid, "Huh? That doesn't know. ”
How does he know this, his own family's life is at stake at this time, how can he still have the kung fu to care if the prince comes back or not!
"Go and ask!" Ruan Qiyi turned around and pointed at a small guy and shouted.
The little guy ran out and came back very quickly, "Master, it is said that the prince has received the will again, and he will go to the Potai Temple to spend the world on behalf of the Son of Heaven......" The little guy didn't finish his words, and was interrupted by Ruan Qiyuan's eyes, "What?" When? What about the prince? Where? ”
"I don't know where it is, but it was the decree that was given last night......
"Lao Tzu...... Exercise...... Lao Tzu ...... "Ruan Seventeen's eyes are red, no need to ask, he must have arrived at Potai Mountain, Wu San has escaped from prison, and this game has been launched."
But how can you be in Potai Mountain, how can you be in Potai Mountain!
He is full of grief and indignation, he can't even find anyone's mother, that group, all fucking bastards are not people!
Ruan Qiyi tore off the reins, got on his horse and ran out of the city.
The little guy who followed him was tested for a long time, and no matter how anxious he was, he jumped on the horse and hurried to follow, several little officials were dumbfounded, and watched Ruan Seventeen rush out of the way before he reacted, "Seventeen Master, you can't go!" Seventeen masters! You are, you can't go, you're going to die! ”
Ruan Qiqi was concentrating on controlling the horse and galloping through the crowd, while shouting at the little servant, "Go to a few people, go and ask if anyone has been caught, go a few more." ”
Almost half of the little captain broke out of the line and went around to inquire.
When Ruan 17 turned into Nanmen Street, a small servant caught up with him, panting and reporting that the officials of the Yamen of the Beijing Mansion found Wu San and Wu Da in the second Sweet Water Lane, Wu San and Wu Da killed four officials, three or four idlers, injured more than a dozen people, and ran away.
Ruan Seventeen's face is blue, he can kill so many people, it must be not only Wu San and Wu Da, Wu San and Wu Da are just an excuse.
"Go and inquire again, what about Dongshan, go to the inn, call all the people who can be called, let them figure out their own way, rush to Beizhuang to see me before dark, remember quietly, don't alarm anyone, bring good things, the master is going to fight with people." Ruan Qiqi reined in his horse slightly, beckoned his henchman Dongshan, and commanded in a low voice.
Dongshan agreed, his expression was slightly different, the people in the inn, his grandfather had never used it. Something big is wrong.
……………………
Li Xia picked one of the three small courtyards in the backyard of Potai Temple, washed and changed his clothes, and Guo Sheng was already waiting behind the shadow wall.
Seeing Duan Yan beckoning, Guo Sheng quickly entered the upper room.
In the west room of the upper room, Hu Ying was taking a few mothers-in-law to set up a meal, and in the middle of the main house, there was an extra long case, Li Xiazheng and King Qin stood side by side in front of the long case, looking down at something.
"Lord, princess." Guo Sheng entered the house to salute, glanced at Hu Ying and the others who were setting up the meal in the west chamber, hesitated and reported: "Something happened in the city just now, there are more than a dozen prisoners, and they have scheduled to be beheaded at noon tomorrow. The two people who escaped from prison were brothers, Wu San and Wu Da. ”
Li Xia exhaled and looked at King Qin.
"Coming?" King Qin looked at Li Xia, this sentence was seven points of affirmation and three points of doubt.
"Hmm. How is the capital now? Li Xia looked at Guo Sheng and asked.
"The criminal department immediately reported it, and there was a royal history on the spot that the impeachment was caused by the dereliction of duty of the seventeenth master, saying that the seventeenth master was messing around in the village of Potai Mountain every day, and Zhou Shangshu said that the seventeenth master's mission has always been extremely safe, and he can escape from death row, and there must be an internal response, saying that he should first find out and then investigate the responsibility. Several ministers recommended Chen Jiang to investigate the escape case, and the emperor agreed. ”
Guo Sheng's words were fast, but steady and clear.
"At present, Wu San and Wu Da are being searched for in the city, and all the yamen and officials of the Beijing government have been dispatched, and they are saying that traces have been found in the second Sweet Water Lane, four government officials, and three or four idlers have been killed, and there is a restaurant in the second Sweet Water Lane, two prostitutes have been burned on fire, and the City Gate Division and the Imperial Front Army have blocked the river and the South Water Gate, and the city is now in chaos."
"What about Ruan Jinyu?" Li Xia asked coldly.
"He arrived late at Yamen this morning, and when he heard about the escape, he immediately got on his horse and went back to Beizhuang. The door of Lujia Bizhuang is now closed, and it is quiet. Guo Sheng lowered his eyelids.
"Let Ah Feng go over and have a look?" King Qin looked at Li Xia, his voice was extremely low, Guo Sheng still heard it, and hurriedly looked at Li Xia.
Li Xia lowered his eyelids, "From now on, Lu Yi can't leave you half a step." ”
"The seventeenth master horse is fast, count, it's almost time to arrive." Guo Sheng looked at King Qin.
"You hurry to eat, come over as soon as you eat." Li Xia raised his head slightly and ordered Guo Sheng in a cold voice.
Guo Sheng responded, and hurriedly lowered his hand and retreated.
Next to the west chamber, Hu Ying had already led people to set up the meal, King Qin and Li Xia sat opposite each other, and the meal was eaten quietly and quickly.
After the meal was cleaned up, Han Shanggong and Eunuch Huang came in, standing in the corner of the house on the left and right, Duan Yan and Hu Ying were guarding the door of the upper room and the gate of the courtyard respectively, Guo Sheng, Lu Yi, and Jin Zhuoyan came in turn.
King Qin sat on the top, his expression was calm, Li Xia stood next to him, watched Jin Zhuoyan come in, and said: "There are two death row prisoners escaped from the prison of the Criminal Department, Wu San and Wu Da, seven brothers of the Wu family, mainly Wu San and Wu Qi, and now in the capital, it is a group of outlaws, this is just an introduction, an excuse, before dark, Wu San and others must flee to Potai Mountain, and a little later, the Xuyi army will probably come in, tonight, this Potai Mountain is a Shura field." ”
Li Xia's words were simple and clear, but they were extremely not simple.
Lu Yi frowned, these things on the bright side are not to worry about, what is terrible is the secret hand under these open chaos.
"The prince can't stay in the Potai Temple, you tell me, this night, where is the best place for the prince, this place is safe, and it is natural to go." Li Xia continued.
The coming blood of Potai Mountain is like a river, if the King of Qin is here, he can't help but come out to preside over the overall situation, now, he wants to avoid it, one is to avoid danger, the other is to avoid this presiding over the overall situation, he wants to go to this place, to be able to convince the public.
"How about the Qinglu behind the town under the mountain?" Lu Yi replied quickly, since yesterday, he has started, and he has thought about the top and bottom of this Potai Mountain for I don't know how many times.
"I think so." Jin Zhuoyan's eyes lit up, and he immediately answered: "It is a place with a very high history, when the Empress Dowager Li's father lost her mother and died, she borrowed the three thatched huts behind the Gospel Temple, which is now Qinglu. After the Empress Dowager Li returned to the capital, she let people renovate three thatched huts, and then the Gospel Temple caught fire, and the thatched huts were very close, but they were unscathed, and they all said that it was where the spiritual roots of the Gospel Temple were. ”
Guo Sheng didn't know about this past, his eyebrows raised when he listened, Qinglu was barely a scene in the capital, he had been there, they were all literati and sour people, but he didn't expect it to be such a background.
"On the day of the Flower Dynasty Festival, the palace has to send people to Qinglu every year to offer flowers and fresh fruits." King Qin looked at Li Xiadao.
"Our family also goes. I heard that the Gu family also went. Jin Zhuoyan hurriedly answered.
Li Xia was a little surprised, she didn't know these things, she had never let people go in the past ten years.
"Where's the armament?" Li Xia subconsciously shook his head, shook off this wisp of the past, looked at Lu Yi and asked.
Lu Yi nodded, "One side is the mountain, and the other side is leaning against the town, you can defend or retreat." ”
"Then Qinglu." Li Xia looked at King Qin, saw him nod, and continued: "You two only take care of the safety of the prince." After a pause, Li Xia looked at King Qin, "You also know that all this layout, all the turmoil, is for one thing, this night, the most difficult thing is to protect the prince." ”
"Don't worry, princess." Lu Yi bowed, Jin Zhuoyan looked serious, didn't say a word, only lowered his head.
"The prince has handed it over to you." Li Xia's words were said to Lu Yi and Jin Zhuoyan, but his eyes looked at King Qin who stood up and looked at her.
"You protect yourself." King Qin raised his hand and pressed it on Li Xia's shoulder, showing a warm smile at her.
Li Xia nodded.
King Qin withdrew his hand, looked at the corner of the room where he was standing, and looked at his eunuch Huang fixedly, "You are ready to share the fold, and you will send it to the capital at dawn tomorrow, and hand it to the palace, just say that I think of the queen mother and the eldest princess, and I can't sleep at night, so I will go to Qinglu to meditate all night and pray for the emperor and the prince." ”
"Yes." Eunuch Huang respectfully agreed.
