On the night when the king of Chu, the envoy of Dalong, arrived in Dajing, the palace of the king of Longshan suddenly caught fire, according to the investigation, for the remnants of the Qing clan to make a rebellion, the city of Beijing was restless that night, and immediately martial law, not only many private houses and commercial residences were searched by the guards, but the palace of the princess of Donghua was even searched by the prince himself with troops, which has caused panic.

However, the military-political talks on the contradictions between the respective subordinate countries of Dalong and Xiliang were officially held the next day as usual.

Of course, the king of Xiliang will also pay attention to the riot last night.

The Maharaja was also ready to deal with it, emphasizing that it was necessary to wipe out the remnants of the Qing clan in order to eradicate the hidden dangers, and suggested that the city should be temporarily closed and strictly inspected, and all officials and people in Kyoto must first go to the official office to check the post and handle the order, and verify the identity with the pass order before entering and leaving the city gate, as for those who are not native to Dajing, they are temporarily prohibited from leaving the city.

At the same time, of course, it is necessary to conduct a close search in the city to ensure that the remnants of the party are arrested and that there can be no more conspiracy and assassination.

In view of the taboo of the two surnames, the king of Xiliang also attached great importance to the unification of royal power established by the abolition of the three surnames, and allowed the advice of the great monarch.

As a result, the search and inspection work of the city guards became more and more strict.

At the same time, there is no surprise that the military-political talks have been reached.

For the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, and in view of the fact that the subject state of Western Liang was the party at fault in this dispute, the king of Western Liang of course agreed with the proposal of the envoys of Dalong to force the subject state to cede the territory and stop the war.

This means arranging for envoys to go to the subject country to convey the decree of the king of Xiliang.

Of course, the Maharaja would not ask for an envoy at this time, and he was even more worried that Jin Yuan would use this opportunity to go out of the city and secretly transfer Yijing, so he took the lead in proposing the candidate for the envoy, who was the husband of Madame Xue, who had been accompanying Yijing for nearly a year.

Although Yu Feng's mission has been accomplished, he did not immediately return to China, and was warmly left by the king of Xiliang, so he gladly agreed to stay in Dajing, and when the envoy returned to solve the dispute between the vassal countries, he returned to China again.

In the eyes of the Maharaja, of course, Yu Feng had a plan and needed to use this time to arrange in an attempt to join forces with Princess Jin Yuan and rescue Yijing from predicament.

Before the envoy group led by General Xue set off, the monarch went to the princess's mansion, this time it was not a temptation, but directly with Jin Yuan "discussed", in order to prevent the remnants of the Qing clan from lurking in the princess's mansion and assassinating him, he wanted to search the princess's mansion.

Jin Yuan did not refuse.

But she did not hold back her "doubts", expressing her surprise at the monarch's stern treatment this time, and bluntly said that even if the remnants of the Qing clan wanted to retaliate, the two descendants had already been convicted and executed, and there was no need for such a rumor to cause panic, and asked with great concern whether there was any inside story about the fire in the monarch.

The maharaja was asked so bluntly by Jin Yuan, and his originally firm judgment was also slightly shaken.

But even so, even if nothing was found in the search of the princess's mansion, the maharaja did not relax his guard and dispelled his suspicions about Jin Yuan.

As a result, the major clans and governments could not escape the search.

Because most of the clans surnamed Wan had close contacts with Princess Jin Yuan, the Maharaja believed that Jin Yuan did not collect Yijing in the mansion, and it was very likely that he was transferred to the clan mansion.

However, the clan is not as empathetic as the two princesses Jin Yuan and Donghua, and it is not a pleasant thing to be searched, which hurts face to some extent, although the clan does not dare to resist because of the royal decree and the authority of the monarch, it is inevitable that they will be angry.

At the same time, those wealthy foreign businessmen who live in Dajing are not allowed to enter and leave because of martial law, so that business affairs are blocked and their interests are affected, and they also have some complaints.

So after a few days of commotion, some members of the clan hooked up and went to the king of Xiliang to talk about it.

Of course, he complained that the king was too publicized this time, for the sake of a few remaining parties, the people's hearts were panicked and the people's grievances were boiling, and when the Dalong envoys visited, the national capital was in turmoil at this time, didn't it make friends see the Xiliang joke? It is not a friendship of hospitality, and it is really detrimental to the national prestige.

Some people questioned that if there was really an assassin secretly colluding with the servants and maids of the Maharaja's Mansion to assassinate him, how could he not know that the Maharaja was still in the state post on the night of the incident and was not in the mansion, and set a fire in vain to expose the crime.

These words also made King Xiliang wonder.

Summoned the Maharaja to inquire.

In order to justify himself, he had to explain that the goal of the Qing rebellion was to "Qianpan", the purpose was to harm "Qianpan", and even the kidnapping of "Qianpan" was a plan to threaten him, and he was glad that it was unsuccessful.

The king of Xiliang was very dissatisfied.

He was originally reluctant to accept "Qianpan" as the future mother of the country, because the monarch insisted, promised to make a heavy promise, and was willing to let Jin Yuan assist the government as the head of the clan, and the king of Xiliang compromised again, but now because of the "Qianpan" accident, the monarch issued martial law in Kyoto, and even searched the princess's mansion and the clan's mansion for this purpose, which made the king of Xiliang feel faintly choked.

When the queen heard this, she was even more angry, and deliberately summoned Qian Pan to question the case of the fire that night.

At this time, the prince also became out of Qianpan to respond to the edict, and in desperation, he had to be injured also called "Qianpan", and because of fear, it was difficult to get up in bed and could not respond to the edict.

The king of Xiliang became more and more convinced that the prince was seriously injured by his favorite concubine, so he attached so much importance to this case, causing his subjects to complain.

But he still felt sorry for his grandson, and did not reprimand him, but only ordered the ban to be lifted.

The Maharaja naturally refused, insisted on closing the city, and repeatedly emphasized that he could not let go of the Qing Clan's remnants, and if the implementation of the royal decree in the future harmed the interests of the nobles, the remnants of the clan might collude with the nobles to cause civil strife.

What made the Maharaja suspicious was that Princess Jin Yuan also went up and agreed with the Maharaja's opinion.

The king of Xiliang considered it again and again, although he accepted the advice and did not lift the ban, but ordered the prince to restrain himself and stop conducting large-scale searches, mainly to secretly investigate - the king of Dalong Chu sent an envoy to Xiliang, and it was not a good thing that the national capital was in chaos.

So the Maharaja didn't have the opportunity to search the capital city again, and for several days, he focused all his attention on Jin Yuan and the clan family's mansions, how could he be distracted from personally searching the private houses, commercial residences?

Fooled! The maharaja gritted his teeth and slapped the case heavily.

Xue Dongchang, who had been worried for several days, almost didn't let his knees fall to his knees.

Kong Xilin also didn't close his eyes for several nights, and he was full of worries about the monarch's suspicion of Jin Yuan, so of course he had to take the opportunity to make a plan: "The king of Chu is really calculating, deliberately provoking His Royal Highness to suspect the princess and his clan relatives, and relaxing the search of private houses, commercial residences, he expected that the maharaja's publicity would make the clan relatives resentful, and he advised His Majesty to stop the search, so that even if Su Wu was hiding in the market, His Royal Highness would not be able to find it immediately." ”

"Then how did Wei Ran get subdued by the King of Chu?" Xue Dongchang wiped his cold sweat, and said in his heart that the sentence "There are people outside the world, there are people outside the sky" is really reasonable, there are still masters in this world who can deceive the king, the king of Chu is indeed not simple, and the commander of Xue silently took a tear of sympathy for the Dalong Tianzi who was far away in Jinyang and wanted to eradicate the Weiguo Mansion - take care, the saint, if you want to move the princess of Chu's father, you can withstand the calculations of the king of Chu.

Kong Xilin glanced at Xue Dongchang, who was useless and only caused trouble, and said coldly: "Jin Yuan is good friends with Donghua, maybe he inadvertently told Donghua the identity of Wei Ran's brother and sister, only to be thought of by the King of Chu This strategy of killing two birds with one stone, although His Royal Highness did not relax his guard against Wei Ran, and did not find out that he was in contact with Donghua, but it's just that Donghua often goes to Jinyuan's mansion, and it is difficult to guarantee that he is not using Wei Chenwei." ”

It's a real possibility.

The monarch gritted his teeth, in the end, he was too careless, because Wei Ran's brothers and sisters had come to Xiliang earlier, and they had the trust of Jin Yuan and Xue Guoxiang respectively, and they believed too much that Yu Feng knew that An Jin was jealous of him, and it was impossible to use An Jin to carry out tricks, so they succeeded in their tricks.

And Princess Jin Yuan was questioned by the Maharaja, and admitted without hesitation: "I mentioned the origin of Wei Ran's brothers and sisters to An Jin, they are Ninghai Wei's family, and An Jin is also related, why did my cousin suddenly ask about this?" ”

Maharaja:......

This time, he completely believed that he had fallen into the trap of Yu Fengsheng.

The capital is so big, even if the city guards can be sent to search from house to house, it is not easy to find the traces of the beautiful scenery, but because of the closure of the city, it is sooner or later, but at this time, His Majesty has clearly ordered that the houses cannot be searched, and the monarch does not know how to start for a while, so he has to secretly stare at the swallow tower and a few merchants that were exposed early.

Of course nothing.

Xue Dongchang was anxious to make up for his mistakes, and one day he trembled and reminded earnestly: "Princess Donghua is bound to know where Madame is hiding, why doesn't His Royal Highness use the little lady as a threat......"

Kong Xilin's hate, surnamed Xue, can you not make trouble?!

He hurriedly sneered: "Su Wu knew that his daughter was in the hands of the Maharaja, but he did not hesitate to flee with Wei Ran, he was bound to think that the Maharaja would use the little lady as a threat, and how could he show up because of this, and all his achievements would be wasted?" ”

The monarch frowned tightly and glanced at Xue Dongchang: "If the order goes down, it will definitely be an eye on Beiyuan." ”

didn't pay attention to Xue Dongchang's proposal.

Because the Maharaja once again "coincided" with Kong Xilin - Yijing did not have amnesia, otherwise she would not have secretly connected with Yu Feng, then she was willing to abandon Xiaoxiao to get rid of him, he couldn't use Xiaoxiao to threaten him anymore, this is like a kidnapper, planning to extort money with the safety of the hostages, the bitter master knows that he, the kidnapper, cannot harm the hostages, how can he be threatened?

Fifth sister, I really lost to you this time! You are even more ruthless than I imagined, is it possible that in your heart, Yu Feng is even more important than Xiaoxiao, in order to reunite with him, you would rather not see Xiaoxiao for the rest of your life? You're so spicy, I'm convinced.

The Maharaja went to the Prime Minister's Mansion this night.

"Does the prime minister have a good plan?" Dajun was obviously poor in donkey skills, so he had to consult Xue Yaotai, hoping that he could give him guidance.

But the prime minister did not speak.

The silence lasted for a very long time, so long that the prince was half drunk and impetuous: "Why does the prime minister have nothing to say? ”

Xue Guoxiang shook his head slightly: "Weichen's words, I'm afraid that His Highness doesn't want to hear it." ”

The Maharaja half-propped his forehead, turned his palm, and held the empty wine cup upside down: "The prime minister might as well say it." ”

"The winner is decided." But it's these four short words.

The cup fell to the ground with a broken sound, the monarch smiled on his back, and it took a while to stop, standing up with the wine case, under the moonlight lamplight, his eyes were slightly wet: "The prime minister asserted too early, seeing that General Xue is about to return, Yu Feng has no excuse to stay in Xiliang, and now that the capital is under martial law, it is impossible for him to take the beautiful scenery out of the city." ”

The two conflicting subject states are near Tongling Pass, sandwiched between Dalong and Xiliang, only a few days away from Dajing, and half a month is enough for negotiations.

Xue Guoxiang sighed: "Your Highness, even if you can find the princess, dare to ask how to get along in the future?" ”

She's been lying to you all the time, saying that you will never compromise, and you can't be ruthless for a long time, what else can you do?

The Maharaja had no answer.

"I haven't lost yet." Only this sentence insists.

But Yu Feng obviously didn't think so, and at this time, he was also raising a lamp with Gu Qiuyue to the moon.

"The reason why we must act at this time, but it is just the right time, is also because the Three Alliances will be abolished, and Yu Haoxi can no longer fight for the power of the two surnames, so he must completely obey the order of the King of Xiliang, although the King of Xiliang may make concessions in his marriage, but he still hopes that Jin Yuan can become the queen in the future, and he will be dissatisfied with the 'Qianpan', even if Yu Haoxi is ' Qianpan's insistence on searching Kyoto on the grounds of being exiled is bound to be rejected by the King of Western Liang, so even if there is no Jin Yuan to contain her, as long as the princess escapes from the Maharaja's Mansion, after my policy of attacking the west, she can also be protected from the search. ”

Gu Qiuyue was greatly impressed: "The prince has a good plan, but there is still no clarity in the future, even if the princess can avoid the search, but the city is closed under martial law in Dajing, and the princess cannot go out of the city, if the prince is forced to take the princess out of the city, it is difficult to ensure that the princess's identity is not revealed......"

"How long can Kyoto be closed?" Yu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.

Of course, martial law cannot be imposed for a long time, only for a month at most.

"And I don't plan to take the princess out of the city."

Gu Qiuyue: !!

"Although Yu Haoxi can't meddle in border affairs, he can leave an eyeliner at the border gate, and the princess may be discovered by him and taken captive again when she leaves the customs, so a more thoughtful plan is to wait for him to completely relax and then arrange for the princess to leave the customs." Yu Feng smiled lightly: "Then, the first step is that I want Yu Haoxi to understand that even if he locks down the city, I have a way to take people away under his nose." ”
