Chapter 72: The Capital

Chapter Seventy-One: The Capital

The recent atmosphere in the capital seems to be very depressing, because I don't know who has released rumors that the prince of Rui was killed because of the Xiao family. Le-Wen

But the strange thing is that at this time, Prince Rui's Mansion closed its doors and did not react at all.

There is nothing to say in the palace.

This can't help but feel strange.

Not only were the people watching the excitement strange, but Prince Rui was sitting opposite the emperor, and the two of them were holding a cup of tea each, both frowning. They also wondered to themselves! If they wanted to say that something had happened to Song Chengan, they didn't believe it in their hearts, and of course they didn't want to believe it. The prince of the dignified prince, how could he travel with only one escort, and the secret guard in the dark was definitely not an ornament. One is to guard, and the other is to facilitate contact. They have their own means of communication to ensure that the news is delivered without fail. And now the news has been broken for half a month. No matter how slow you go, if you are still alive, you should go to the capital. But if a person is dead, there should be news! What is going on in the current situation is very puzzling.

"This time it's my carelessness!" Emperor Tai'an looked very guilty and blamed himself, Uncle Huang only has this one single seedling, if he really wants to fold like this, it will be too wrong! Now it seems that this little girl of the Zheng family may really not know anything about the Xiao family's family background. If it weren't for this little girl, then the Xiao family army in the northwest suddenly stabilized, there must be someone hiding in the secret? Could it be that the people of the Xiao family have survivors besides Xiao Yunfeng. That's a big bad thing! The face became a little more solemn for a while.

Prince Rui didn't speak, so how could he not complain? But now he didn't even dare to send someone to visit him! Who knows if there were people with impure minds mixed in with those who were sent. These people even know the emperor's every move clearly, which shows that the foundation is deep and the burial is also very deep. He can't understand the emperor's thoughts, how can he allow others to snore on the side of the couch! He hasn't even been able to clear up the things around him, what are he doing staring at the Xiao family so busy?" Don't forget, in the palace change 10 years ago, how did the former emperor go! If it weren't for the emperor's luck, the current throne might not have been anyone's family! There are one and there are two! The Xiao family has always flaunted itself with loyalty, so they will not participate in the court battles except for the border battles, let alone rebel against the grain, otherwise, how will the people of the world look at it? They will not be able to stop the mouths of the people, and even if they take over the country, they will not be able to sit on the country. As long as they don't rebel, at this stage, the Xiao family can only win over, not centrifuge! Otherwise, there will be internal and external troubles, and the imperial court will be in danger!"

"How could I not understand this truth?" Emperor Tai'an was a little anxious, "But if there are no soldiers in your hands, everything will be restricted! They have military power in their hands, and they serve the yin and disobey it. My will is in the army, and that is fart!"

"But they cooperate less with each other and more with each other. The emperor has always been divided and co-opted, and he wants to use the Xiao family's force to deter those restless families as soon as possible?" Prince Rui understood what the emperor meant.

Emperor Tai'an nodded, "If it weren't for that, how could I - Jiang Yang is my own sister-in-law, am I willing to persecute her like this? The queen mother told me to protect Jiang Yang on her deathbed, how dare I forget? Yun Feng is my only nephew, you know how much my father loved him back then." He often said in front of me, now that I have my grandfather and your uncle in the future, the world is so big that no one can bully you! I still have these words in my ears! I won't talk about this, now even An'er's life and death are unknown, can I feel good in my heart? For the sake of our Song family, too many sacrifices have been made!

Prince Rui sighed, although Emperor Tai'an had some elements of acting in it, but five or six percent of his words were true! They grew up together when they were young, and they understood each other, and he still had this point. In the final analysis, the emperor is not a ruthless person. Once you sit in that seat, there are too many bodies that can't help yourself.

"Your Majesty, you are blindsided!" Prince Rui patted Emperor Tai'an's shoulder, as intimate as when he was a child, "There are rules in the army!

"You mean Feng'er. Emperor Tai'an frowned.

Prince Rui nodded, "Except for him, no one else can use it with confidence." He is the only one, not only will he not care about those military powers, but he will even be afraid that those military powers will really be in his hands! Even if you don't say it, he will hand over the military power to the emperor as soon as possible! What's more, he is not alone now, and the lives of the Zheng family are tied to him! I don't think he wants to see the Zheng family disappear like the Xiao family. Once the military power is retracted, the Xiao family army will no longer be a threat! The military power held by the emperor can completely compete with the Xiao family army. In the past, the Xiao family's army was the strongest, because the forces in other armies were staggered, and even ordered many doors, and they could not unite as one. โ€

Emperor Tai'an pondered for a while and nodded, "Uncle Huang is right! This is the safest and most effective method at present." What's more, as long as Jiang Yang stayed under his nose, Xiao Yunfeng would not dare to make unnecessary moves.

"Now, I can only count on that Zheng family girl!" Prince Rui smiled on his face, "That girl, it's not a simple character! I suspect that the news I get now is that girl is playing tricks!"

"You mean, only when people 'die' can they be safer!" Emperor Tai'an nodded knowingly, "There is some truth!"

"If we can think of it, others will think of it. The corners of Prince Rui's mouth twitched, "I can't guess what it will do." But I know that that girl is extremely desperate for her life, if An'er really has an accident, she will never venture to the capital again, and she must go back and escape with her family as soon as possible!"

"And Mama Fang's news hasn't been interrupted in the past few days, everything is normal in the Zheng family!" Emperor Tai'an muttered.

Prince Rui's eyes flashed, as if he hadn't heard anything, and nodded, "Then, An'er must be safe!"

"Lord Wang!" someone outside the door came to report, "A little girl dressed in big red clothes, leading a convoy carrying seven coffins entered the capital from Suzaku Gate a quarter of an hour ago, and came towards our palace. It is said that the coffin was filled with bows and arrows. โ€

"What?" Emperor Tai'an stood up, and immediately felt extremely weird, wearing a red coffin to enter Beijing, what kind of road is this.

"Let's go!" Prince Rui got up neatly and rushed out the door, "Go and see!"

Emperor Tai'an is the palace of Weifu, it doesn't hurt to go out and have a look, he beckoned and ordered, "Let Xiao Yunfeng come out, if he asks about anything, don't hide anything." With that, he got up and went out.

When the two of them arrived at the door, they saw a little girl who looked to be twelve or thirteen years old from a distance, dressed in a bright red riding costume, riding on a black horse, which was very eye-catching! Even if they sat on the horse, they could see that this girl was tall and tall, and she was smiling at this time, and she looked like a sunflower in the morning light, full of vigor and bright and bright!

She was followed by seven carriages, with seven coffins on them, each of which had a chauffeur who was not good-looking, like a dart master hired from some dart company, and obviously had no kung fu. What's even more terrifying is that the long โ–กโ–ก on those coffins shot in from one side of the coffin, completely submerged into the coffin, and the arrows emerged from the other side and penetrated through them. Even if there are living people hidden inside, they are all dressed as sugar gourds, and the dead cannot die anymore.

The convoy followed the lively people, and for a while, it was bustling and very lively.

Prince Rui and the emperor glanced at each other, and they both saw the solemnity in each other's eyes. This is someone who has to put Song Chengan to death!

King Rui suppressed the anger in his heart and set his eyes on the little girl who was getting off the horse.

"I've seen the prince!" Zheng Qingluan stepped forward with a smile on his face, not seeing anything wrong.

"No need to be polite! We're not outsiders. Prince Rui glanced at Emperor Tai'an and responded with a smile.

I saw Zheng Qingluan smiling and bowing his head towards Emperor Tai'an, and then made a bow gesture with gestures. This is to guess the identity of Emperor Tai'an, and you can't reveal your identity by saluting.

It's a bit of a sight. Emperor Tai'an really liked it a little in his heart, and raised his hand lightly, signaling that he would not be polite.

Zheng Qingluan turned sideways and was really relieved to see Xiao Yunfeng with a hat hidden in the dark. The real danger is just coming!

She swept in the direction of the convoy and said lightly, "Shizi, haven't you come out to see the prince?"

Everyone focused their eyes on a few coffins, and they couldn't help but wonder how people were hidden in the coffins that were shot through with โ–กโ–ก.

Seeing a person walking out of the coachman next to the convoy, with a big birthmark on his face, could it be Song Cheng'an? Everyone was puzzled, and saw a cold light in the crowd facing the coachman, and everyone let out an exclamation, and Prince Rui was so frightened that he almost fainted. I saw another cold light meet it at a faster speed, and after a crisp sound, two darts fell in response. The crowd breathed a sigh of relief. And the person who hurt people with a secret arrow disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye. Zheng Qingluan was relieved when he saw Xiao Da following closely and chased him out.

Prince Rui only saw Xiao Yunfeng hidden in the shadows at this time, and nodded gratefully.

Zheng Qingluan's expression never changed, as if everything was expected by her.

The coachman with the birthmark on his face continued to walk forward, Prince Rui frowned slightly, this person is indeed similar in height and shape to An'er, but the walking posture is a little different, parents will not mistake their children.

Prince Rui's mind is racing, is there still an unknown danger? He was silent on his face, but he glanced at Zheng Qingluan vaguely, and saw that although the other party had a smile on his face, his eyes were full of vigilance, and he knew that the matter might not be over. He also cooperated with the excitement and shouted 'An'er' to the coachman, to catch up.

At this time, another driver in the convoy jumped up excitedly, but only opened his mouth, but could not make a sound. He wiped his face and revealed his true face, and at first glance, it was Song Chengan's entourage with big eyes. I saw him running over excitedly and hugging Song Chengan's legs
