Chapter 540 Unsealed
Of course, the commotion in the capital has not completely stopped, and there are two palace concubines and some civil servants who are really happy.
Mei Guifei and Xiao Shufei are both inconspicuous and inconspicuous, so they can't play any role in this matter at all.
Those Wenchen are even more lip-synched, and they talk like a river and talk endlessly, but they can't play a fundamental role. This may be what everyone often says: Xiucai rebels, and it will not be successful in three years.
King Jin and King Cheng in Beijing, these two families did not have the slightest reaction.
Among the generals, Marquis Ning Yuan has retired from illness and ignores everything, and Marquis Ning Yuan has some military power in his hands, but he is only in his early twenties after all, and in the eyes of those old fritters, he is a little immature; There is another powerful family in the capital that holds a large number of military power, and that is the Nan'an Palace. It's just that the king of Nan'an is now in the northern frontier, and when the emperor is critically ill, he is fighting with the Jiang clan, and he has more defeats and fewer victories, and he doesn't know what the situation is now! In addition to this young prince who is at the border, there is only one mother and a sister in the Nan'an Palace, and there are countless wives and concubines, but the people who stay in the capital, no matter which one, cannot hold this military power. Therefore, several large battalions of soldiers and horses in the suburbs of Beijing have not been mobilized now.
But there has to be a result, right?
If there is to be a result, then an opportunity is needed.
Time flies, and when the grass on the northern grasslands begins to turn green, this opportunity finally came as promised. An 800-mile urgent document from the north exploded the gate of the capital that had blocked the moon for more than a month, making this city calm on the surface but surging on the inside.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could no longer care about intrigue, and they all gathered on the court, all of them with sad faces, all as if they had died of their father.
The three most noble women in the harem, the Queen Mother, Concubine Mei, and Concubine Xiao Shufei also sat together with a rare heart, and did not fight openly and secretly because of the throne, and the quarrels continued.
The eight-hundred-mile expedited document was transmitted in the middle of everyone, even if they had already received the news from other people's mouths before, and they saw with their own eyes, everyone still seemed to be suddenly burned, and they could hardly hold the thin few pieces of paper, because the news in that document was too shocking: Dayan lost sixteen cities in a row, and the king of Nan'an was captured, and at this moment, the vanguard of the Jiang clan was only eight hundred miles away from Dayan's capital.
If it is equipped with a good war horse, it can travel thousands of miles in a day and 800 in a night, and it will be killed at the foot of the capital within a day.
Except for a few military generals, these adults in the court have not been pampered for a long time, where have they seen this kind of battle? Most people were frightened when they saw the news, and they panicked and shouted to send someone to negotiate peace and pay compensation for the land; Of course, there are also hard-nosed people who advocate declaring war on the Jiang tribe and then sending troops and horses to pacify the Jiang tribe. It's just that the main battle, first, is that the number of people is small, and secondly, where does the money come from as long as there is only one sentence of soldiers, horses, food and grass? Just block people and have nothing to say. Therefore, the voice of the main battle was so faint that it was almost inaudible.
The Empress Dowager in the palace, Mei Guifei Niangniang and Xiao Shufei Niangniang had the same rare opinion this time, and they all advocated sending them forward to negotiate peace, and they should be fast. There was nothing to do in the palace, they all heard the storyteller say that Jingkang was difficult, at that time, it was the foreign soldiers who came to the city, the emperor was captured, and the palace concubines and princesses all ended up miserable. Therefore, no matter how many people are lost, how many cities are ceded, and how many annual offerings are paid, the other party cannot be allowed to surround the capital in it.
Therefore, it is rare that this peace negotiation has not encountered any resistance, but in a few hours, whether it is the list of personnel to be sent, it is the first time that it has passed, and the gifts for the other party have also been prepared. The official departure is scheduled for the next day.
As a result, the blockade of the capital had to be lifted. The emperor also stopped for nearly 27 days, and everyone discussed, so they simply went out on the 27th day and was buried in the imperial mausoleum in Jingbei.
On the afternoon of the opening of the city gate of the capital, a very inconspicuous Wupeng carriage slowly galloped into the city gate, circled between the various squares and markets in the city, and then quietly stopped in front of the back door of the Chengwang Mansion, and two slender women got out of the car.
One of the women in green stepped forward and knocked on the door twice, and the door opened a crack with a "creak" from the inside, and the two women squeezed in one after the other, and the carriage clattered towards the market, and silence returned to the back door of the Chengwang Mansion.
The carriage was the one Yan Ran was used to riding, and the two women who got out of the carriage were green chrysanthemums, so that one was Yan Ran.
The two men entered the door, and were led to find a secluded road, and went all the way, and soon arrived at the courtyard of Princess Cheng, and the two people knocked on the door and entered, but the person who led the way turned and returned.
Princess Cheng's courtyard was silent at this time, and occasionally a few maids walked, and they all raised their feet as much as possible without making any sound. There was a maid under the corridor who was standing there feeding the birds, and when she saw Yan Ran and the two, her willow eyebrows were raised, and she pointed to the little maid who opened the courtyard door and was about to lure people inside, but she was still afraid that this was in front of the princess's door, so she didn't dare to scold loudly, but just rushed over, lowered her voice, and asked angrily: "Xiaohong, what's the matter with you?" Don't you know that the princess has been sick all year round, and there are no living people in our courtyard? ”
Xiaohong lowered her head and tugged at the corners of her clothes aggrievedly, not daring to refute.
Seeing this, Yan Ran smiled slightly, and explained softly: "Sister, don't blame her, we don't know how to be polite." Saying that, he gestured to the green chrysanthemum in his eyes, and the green chrysanthemum hurriedly stepped forward and stuffed a purse into the maid's hand, Yan Ran saw that the other party took it, so he continued: "We are the princess's side, Gui Mama's relatives, please be accommodating, we just need to see Gui Mama and leave immediately,"
"Mama Gui?" The maid muttered quietly, but did not stop again, but waved her hand at the maid called Xiaohong, motioned for her to leave, and said, "You come with me." ”
Yan Ran bowed slightly, thanked him, and glanced at the green chrysanthemum again. Lu Ju quickly stuffed a purse into Xiaohong's hand, and then followed behind Yan Ran and walked inside together.
Xiaohong was stunned for a moment, and when she took the purse, she felt a sinking in her hand, and carefully checked it in her hand, and found that it was a piece of silver the size of an egg yolk. This young lady is so magnanimous! Thinking like this, I wanted to look back at the generous young lady again, but those people had already disappeared into the cloister and disappeared.
