Yao Guangxiao followed Xu Guang back to the capital and did not stay in Jiazhou Bofu, but found a temple to place an order, after exchanging Buddhism with the abbot for a while, he quickly won the abbot's admiration, not only arranged a good place for Yao Guangxiao, but also solved the problem of Du Mu for him, so that he finally had a legal identity.

Xu Guang did not enter the Jiazhou Bofu from the main gate, but climbed over the wall at night to find the housekeeper and other cronies in the mansion, told them and disappeared into the capital; When they entered the city, they had already found that there were many eyes and ears of the Imperial City Division on the street, and there were also fresh faces looking around vigilantly from time to time in the Li Fang where the nobles gathered, and it seemed that Yang Jiefu and others had taken this place as the focus of their precautions.

"These days, there are people everywhere in Beijing who have spread the news of the disastrous defeat of the army and His Majesty's dragon control of Bintian, and many businessmen have begun to pack up their things and prepare to go to the south to take refuge." Xu Guang, who pretended to be a pilgrim, was given the opportunity to listen to Master Daoyan teach the Dharma after giving him a sum of money for sesame oil.

"The little lord and Qian Hua and others have already taken precautions, it is easy for Tang Kuo to defeat the army, but it is almost impossible to kill the emperor, the Chinese army is close to Weizhou City, and the walls of Weizhou City are tall, if they enter Weizhou and refuse to defend the city, Tang Kuo is not so easy to break through the city." Yao Guangxiao was not in vain during this time, he talked with Xu Guang from time to time along the way, and had his own judgment on the situation of the war, "These must be someone creating momentum." ”

"That's true, Xu followed a guy who spread rumors in the teahouse, and then saw him enter the Imperial City Division, which has long been Yang Jiefu's territory." Xu Guang's judgment of the battle situation was no different from Yao Guangxiao's, so he did not dwell on the war in the north, but talked about the situation in Beijing.

"Which palace has changed recently?" Yao Guangxiao closed his eyes and knocked on the wooden fish, using the voice of the wooden fish to cover the words of the two, "Yang Jiefu's move is to prepare for the new monarch's accession to the throne, if the emperor dies or the news that Tang Kuo's army is about to arrive in the capital, it will be the time when the new monarch ascends the throne, and even if the little lord can bring the emperor back at that time, it will be too late." ”

"Xu has been busy contacting Lord Qian and Master Zhou for the past two days, and he hasn't had time to inquire yet, but if Yang Jiefu and others want to start, according to the relationship between relatives and relatives, King Yu is the most likely to succeed to the throne." Speaking of this kind of thing, even the bold Xu Guang felt nervous for a while, this is a big change that has never been seen since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty.

"King Servant?" Yao Guangxiao suddenly opened his eyes, "I remember that you said that King Yu is the emperor's younger brother, and he is only fifteen years old this year, right?" If he ascends the throne, there is the queen mother hanging the curtain to listen to the government, and there are civil officials monopolizing the court, and Yang Jiefu has the merit of supporting him, who else in the court can compete with him? ”

Powerful ministers support the young emperor, so as to control the government, this kind of thing is not uncommon in the history of China, Yao Guangxiao immediately guessed the intentions of Yang Jiefu and others, what does a fifteen-year-old young man understand? The Queen Mother has lived in the deep palace for a long time and has shallow knowledge, so since then they can unscrupulously eradicate dissidents.

"Well, I'm going to go to the Taiping County Lord's Mansion to investigate, she and King Yu have always been friends, and it is natural for her to come forward to go to King Yu's Mansion." Xu Guang said his plan, Yao Guangxiao nodded silently and closed his eyes again.

"County Lord, someone outside the mansion asked to see him, but he refused to report his name, but instead sent this, saying that the county lord would understand at a glance." The maid held a piece of jade pendant in both hands and said.

"Oh?" Li Lingyue's gaze stayed on the jade pendant in her hand for a moment, then took it in her hand and ordered, "Quickly invite him in, call Xue Shao over, and after the people are brought in, you go to the door to guard and don't allow anyone to approach." ”

The maid retreated, Li Lingyue rubbed this warm jade pendant, she had seen this jade pendant on Li You many times, and knew that this was Li You's family heirloom, but now that Li You was on an expedition, the jade pendant suddenly appeared here, isn't it true that the imperial brother has suffered an accident? Li Lingyue fell into deep worry.

"It turned out to be Mr. Xu, if Mr. Xu wants to see the lord of this county, he only needs to report it, so why should he dress up so much?" Seeing that the visitor took off his hat and wig, Li Lingyue immediately recognized Xu Guang's identity.

"There are people in the county lord's mansion now, and Xu has no choice but to do so." Xu Guang saw that there were only Li Lingyue and Xue Shao left in the house, so he said directly.

"Someone's staring at my house?" Li Lingyue set her eyes on Xue Shao.

"These days, there are some fresh faces hanging around, and I don't know their purpose, so it's not easy to drive them away." Xue Shao said.

"I'll talk about this later, Mr. Xu, didn't you go with Jiazhou Bo on the expedition? Why are you back in the capital now? Isn't it the imperial brother, he .......," Li Lingyue asked anxiously.

"Your Majesty is safe now, but after a long time, it may not be so." So Xu Guang elaborated on Yao Guangxiao's analysis, "Therefore, Xu wants to ask the county lord to help investigate the various palaces in Beijing and the queen mother in the palace What has happened recently." ”

Li Lingyue's face turned white, she remembered a trivial matter that she had neglected, and she didn't think about it when she first heard it, but when she thought about it in combination with Xu Guang's words, it was very serious, "King Yu was summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother yesterday, saying that he wanted to check his recent studies, and he hasn't seen King Yu come out today." ”

"The Queen Mother was also moved by what they said!" Xu Guang exclaimed, although the Queen Mother was dissatisfied with Li Guiduo because of the great etiquette, but the matter has come to this point is still beyond his expectations. If there is the support of the Queen Mother, then the succession of King Yu will become justified, if something has happened, even if Li Gui can return to the capital, he will not be able to change the facts, I am afraid that he can only be confined in the deep palace for the rest of his life, or in a few years after everyone forgets about him, he will be given a glass of wine.

"The Queen Mother must have been deceived by those traitorous ministers, so I will go into the palace to explain the guilt of Yang Jiefu and others to the Queen Mother." After that, Li Lingyue planned to go out.

"The county lord can't." Xu Guang and Xue Shao shouted at the same time, and when they saw Li Lingyue stopping, Xue Shao hurriedly persuaded, "Now that Your Majesty is on the expedition, the capital is the eyes and ears of Yang Jiefu, not to mention whether the county lord can enter the palace to see the queen mother, even if he can enter the palace, I am afraid that he will not be able to convince the queen mother for a while, but will put himself in a dangerous situation." ”

"Are we going to die here?" Li Lingyue thought of Yang Jiefu's move to make peace again, if he didn't have the royal brother who loved him and the British duke who helped him speak, the next time Yang Jiefu raised this matter again, maybe he would really go to Mobei.

"This is the reason why Xu came to find the county lord." Xu Guang stroked his beard and said. (To be continued.) )
