Chapter 13 Jiang Tianchi arrives in Beijing
Qiu Yulan took the brocade silk and looked at it, and more than a dozen names were scribbled on the silk with snails - at the bottom were three words that were scribbled to the point of checking: "There is a change!" β
"These people ......" Qiu Yulan's eyes wandered on the brocade silk for a moment, her face was gloomy, she didn't remember any of the names on it, but since it was brought out of the palace by the eldest princess of Yongfu, she could guess where these people were. At the moment, people said, "Go and invite Aunt Gu to come!" β
Gu Qianna placed Jiang Huizhu and the others in the house not far away, and as soon as she shouted, she arrived and saluted respectfully: "The maid has seen the nineteenth young lady!" In fact, Gu Qianna's background, how can she be a good concubine as a concubine, and there is no need to use a self-title like "maid", but after hearing about Mrs. Zhuang's methods, in order to show her well-behaved, she regarded herself as a slave when she was a serious master.
"Look at these people, do you know?" Qiu Yulan waved her hand to get up and handed her the brocade silk.
"It's the Miyagi Guard!" Gu Qianna was the princess of Zhou, and she was an important member of the Gu clan back then, she only glanced at it, and replied without hesitation, "And most of them are officers in the Praetorian Guard!" β
Qiu Yulan sneered: "Sure enough! β
"Young lady, this brocade silk ...... Could it be that Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess of Yongfu brought it over? "Although Yongfu didn't go to see Jiang Yadan's concubine just now, but now everyone is in a cross-courtyard, the eldest princess is here, how can Gu Qianna's side not see it? She has always been smart, and she immediately thought of the key place, and couldn't help but say with a smile, "If these people are really all people from the big room and the third room, then ...... The Queen Mother and Your Majesty are afraid! β
Although the Empress Dowager Jiang and the emperor are not the people who can really say the final word in Da Rui now, they occupy the name of righteousness!
If the mother and son fall under the control of the big house and the third room, and are coerced to write a holy decree or decree that is unfavorable to the fourth room, then the Jiang family's big house and the third room division will be famous, and they can clearly lead the forbidden army to rush here to control the four rooms!
At that time, even if Jiang Tianchi returns to Beijing with enough hole cards, he will fall into an extremely unfavorable environment: entering, not only will it be regarded as a blatant rebellion, but will he not want his children and grandchildren? Retreat, the handle falls into the hands of others, will it be reduced to a chess piece from now on, waiting for the fate of the bird to hide the bow?
"Since Yongfu can ask the palace maid to hand over this brocade silk to our side, it can be seen that things have not gone so bad!" Qiu Yulan saw that people changed their faces after being reminded by Gu Qianna, and in an instant, people's hearts fluctuated, and she couldn't help frowning, and said coldly, "Besides, you only know that the big room and the third room have so many people in the guards, and the four rooms of us are all dead?!" β
Scolding his subordinates, Qiu Yulan glared at Gu Qianna fiercely - Gu Qianna's face turned white, and she knelt down directly, not daring to raise her head: "Young lady spare her life!" The servant didn't mean to disturb people's hearts, she was really scared! β
"I didn't know you were so daring!" Qiu Yulan sneered, "The will that gave you and King Zhou to death has arrived in King Zhou's mansion, aren't you also calm and calm to earn a glimmer of life for yourself?" β
Gu Qianna didn't dare to speak, and kowtowed vigorously!
In a few moments, the carpet was stained red with blood.
"Take her to talk to the eighth sister-in-law!" Qiu Yulan didn't want to refute her sister-in-law's face, so she didn't deal with her personally, waved her hand and asked people to take Gu Qianna out, and asked someone to come in and wipe the bloodstains, so she said, "Go and invite the commander of these guards!" β
As he was talking, there was a sudden cheer outside!
Qiu Yulan was surprised and stood up: "What's the matter?" β
"Young lady, it's all right! The old lady has woken up! After a while, Jiang Tan walked in happily, "Doctor Lin said that the old lady's body and bones are fine, and she can stay after two or three days of recuperation!" β
Qiu Yulan was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses: "Then the eighth sister-in-law?" β
"After a while, Jiang Tang in front of the eighth prince will come to invite the eighth young lady and them back to the hospital." Jiang Tan said in a low voice, "I said to the outside world that I was afraid that the incident of the Seventeenth Sun Gongzi would happen againβjust say that the old lady ordered it!" The old lady has already agreed to lend us the banner. β
"......" Thinking about the chaos in the past half of the day, Qiu Yulan was quite speechless, "I know, then so be it!" β
It's depressing, but it's always good that nothing happens, right?
But when Jiang Yashuang came back in the evening, she was in a good mood: "It's sudden, I can't tell you clearly, are you scared?" β
"What do you mean?" Qiu Yulan asked in surprise.
"I have long suspected that the guards have been manipulated by the big room and the third room, but it is just in the way of my grandfather, and it is usually not easy to openly investigate." Jiang Yashuang said truthfully, "The news of my father's return to Beijing this time made my grandfather faint, and I worked with my starling brother to secretly contact the fourth aunt, and simply took the opportunity to deceive them, and sure enough, many people came up!" β
He narrowed his eyes, "These people may not be all of them, but most of them should have come out!" Next, as long as they are eradicated one by one, and then replaced with our people, there is no trick for the big house and the third room! β
Qiu Yulan suddenly said: "I was strange before, if my grandfather is not good, you are worried that the big house and the third room will take the opportunity to attack us, why do you still gather people in one place?" They should be hidden! After all, no matter how powerful those guards are, how many people are there in total? It is blocked in the Guogong Mansion again, and when the time comes, it will be difficult to fly when it is surrounded by people! β
If it is really to be prepared, although it is easy to be broken by each one, the probability of escaping some people is higher; But if it is to defraud the big house and the third room, it is the best way to gather the small family and concentrate all the forces to protect it.
Although there is a danger of being wiped out, even if the number of guards protecting them is limited, if you only rely on the internal fighting of the guards of the Guogong Mansion, it will not be so easy to take them down - a careless estimate will turn into a protracted battle!
In that case, if Qin Guogong came to his senses halfway like now, wouldn't the big house and the third room be miserable?
If Qin Guogong is not sober, then let the guards lead people to break through separately, and the four rooms can also be determined that Jiang Tianqi and Jiang Tianqi are mad and kill their relatives by sending people to attack their stepmother's residence!
If you want to win it quickly, the big house and the third room can only transfer troops and horses from outside the Guogong Mansion - and then, in addition to the regular guards, the Jiang family also has an elite team that only obeys the orders of the Duke of Qin!
That elite will not reason with the big house and the third room, saying that your people are only allowed to attack the fourth room after entering the mansion, and they are not allowed to disturb the Guogong - they will only say: "Without the warrant of the Guogong, attack the Guogong Mansion without authorization, kill!" β
Qiu Yulan thought about it and was a little worried, "But if my grandfather knows, I don't know if he will be angry?" β
She was not afraid of Qin Guogong's punishment now, but worried about his body.
In a short period of time, the Jiang family killed two ancestors in a row, not to mention that the infighting that lost the suppression would break out immediately, and it would also be a huge blow to the power of the entire Jiang family!
"My grandmother was guarding there, saying that everything would be discussed when my grandfather was well!" Jiang Yashuang said, "Before my grandfather fully recovers, whoever dares to disturb things, my grandmother will personally go to the court to denounce his unfilial piety!" β
Obviously, Old Madam Tao is also out of the way - Qin Guogong can't die at the moment!
Qiu Yulan rubbed her forehead, only to feel very tired: "But I hope my father will arrive in Beijing sooner!" β
Although Jiang Tianchi has not returned to the court for many years, since he is a person who can let go of the rich life of a noble son when he was young, he has come to this day step by step from a soldier, with forbearance, city government, vision, and perseverance...... Needless to say. How can he be the same generation as Jiang Tianqi and Jiang Tianqi, with him coming back to take charge, not to mention that the four rooms are as stable as Mount Tai, they will also rise in momentum!
β¦β¦ Jiang Tianchi came back very quickly, he even left the northern frontier and the army, what else could delay his trip?
After falling off the horse several times when he was tired, in order not to reduce the speed of returning to Beijing, he refused to ride with the guards, but tied himself to the saddle with his clothes belt - he finally entered Beijing after a long journey, and at the moment when he cut off his clothes and jumped off the horse in front of the Jibei Hou Mansion, the horse that looked like it was worth a thousand gold, but the horse fell to the ground with a bang!
Jiang Tianqi, who came out to greet him in front of the Hou Mansion, couldn't help but pause, and subconsciously looked at the scars on the horse's buttocks and the horse blood sprinkled all the way on the long street. Cutting shares and bloodletting - as the only son of the Marquis of Jibei, although Jiang Tianli has never joined the army, he also knows this kind of way of rushing at the cost of the life of the mount, but although this method costs the life of the mount, the person who is in a hurry must bear it!
Looking at Jiang Tianchi, who was standing tall and obviously only supported by a will, his heart couldn't help but tremble!
"Where's my uncle?" Jiang Tianchi, who walked up the steps with a horsewhip in his hand, did not look back at the mount, but only briefly instructed his cousin, "Lead the way!" β
He is a commander who has been sharpened by the actual implementation of the army, not angry and self-assured, this time it is specifically to mourn Jiang Tianqi's father, giving up everything day and night to rush back, Jiang Tianli was seen by him, and he couldn't help but bow his head, as if he felt that he was a little shorter for no reason, and said: "Fourth brother, please come with me!" β
The body of Jibei Hou had already been put into the coffin, just to let Jiang Tianchi see the last side, and it was not nailed, but only closed.
Jiang Tianqi was about to summon someone to lift the coffin lid, but Jiang Tianchi waved his hand: "No need!" Come on, brothers, be careful, lest you disturb your uncle!" β
"......" Jiang Tianqifu was suppressed by him as soon as he met, and he didn't dare to say no at the moment, but not to say that he had always been a civil official, and the riding and archery he had been forced to learn by his parents in his early years had long been put aside, and now his strength was no longer good, so he said that Jiang Tianchi had just come back from such a long journey, and he could fall down as soon as he watched the wind blow, he would still do this kind of physical work, what should he do if something happened?
was still considering the wording of the persuasion, but Jiang Tianchi was already doing it - Jiang Tianqi had no choice but to go up and help: "Fourth brother, this coffin lid is too heavy......
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Tianchi had already pushed the coffin lid open alone, revealing Jibei Hou who was lying quietly in the coffin!
Jiang Tianqi opened his mouth, about to say something, but saw Jiang Tianchi staring at Jibei Hou's completely blackened face for a moment, and suddenly tears welled up: "Uncle! The unfilial Chi'er is back to see you! β
Before he finished speaking, he knelt down suddenly, and kowtowed three times in the coffin - Jiang Tianqi didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt down to return the salute, persuading: "Fourth brother, people can't be resurrected after death, please mourn!" β
It has been almost a month since the death of Jibei Hou, and although Jiang Tianli is his own son, the saddest time has passed. At this moment, I was infected by Jiang Tianchi, my heart was sour, and I also shed tears, "I knew that my father was walking so fast, even if I was not sensitive, I should have gritted my teeth and stayed in the army back then, and if I didn't want anything else, I would be able to serve my father every day!" β
He was distracted, but he heard a muffled sound of "bang", kowtowing from afar, and when he looked up, Jiang Tianchi fell to the ground as expected!
