Looking at Chen Guo's figure hurriedly going out, the eighth master's brows furrowed even tighter.

Memory, when he was very young, the capital also had ground movements. He would have been living in the Elder Brother's house. I vaguely remember that it was at dinner time, and after eating well, I found that the dishes on the table were shaking, and even the stool he was sitting on began to move. Chen Guo was only two or three years older than him, and he was too young to react for a while. It was still the eunuch next to him who was clever, picked him up and ran out.

The ground movement that year was not serious, but it stopped in a quarter of an hour. Later, I learned that there was a ground movement in Zhilu, not far from the capital, and the capital was only affected.

I just don't know if this year's ground movement is the same as that year. If so, then he can rest assured. If the heart of the earth is the capital, then the situation is much more serious.

He really wanted to leave the errand here and go back to Beijing to see it in person, but the trace of reason left in his mind told him that if he really impulsively returned to the capital, the rest of his life would be over! He's finished, and the entire Eighth Master Mansion is finished!

So he restrained himself and let Chen Guo return to Beijing. Only by doing a good job can he gain a foothold in the court and give Mao Tongtong a stable life.

The eighth master here is worried, but Chen Guo took advantage of the night to set off!

As the personal eunuch of the eighth master, the skill of riding a horse is also a must. It's just that over the years, there have been very few opportunities for him to play. It was not easy to walk at night, but Chen Guo did not hide and rest. He calculated in his heart the horse's endurance, and rushed forward without hesitation.

Mao Tongtong in the capital didn't know anything about all this.

It's been a few days since the ground moved, and there are no aftershocks. Her restless heart finally settled down. After entering the palace, she went to see Concubine Liang and Sifujin, and saw that they were all fine, and she was completely relieved. But when she heard that the prince was injured in the process of saving Kangxi, and Kangxi was sick again, she kept an eye on it.

After returning home, Mao Tongtong called Xiao Xuzi.

"Count the days, you should go to Yunnan."

"Well, if the road is smooth, this should be in Yunnan." Xiao Xuzi replied.

"When I left, I said that he had been on the road and it was inconvenient to receive letters, but if there was something urgent, I should be able to contact him, right?" Mao Tongtong asked.

Although the eighth master did not specifically explain to her, she believed that Xiao Xuzi must have a way to contact the eighth master urgently.

Sure enough, Xiao Xuzi nodded and said, "If there is something in Maofang Fujin, the slave can deliver the letter on his behalf." ”

"Okay, then I'll write a letter now, and you must deliver it to your master as quickly as possible. Also make sure that the letter is not seen by others. Mao Tongtong said.

In fact, she didn't know what this news could do to help the eighth master, but she subconsciously felt that the eighth master should know.

Xiao Xuzi naturally didn't refuse, so he waited for Mao Tongtong to write a letter.

This is the first time that Mao Tongtong has written a letter to the eighth master after the eighth master left Beijing. did not write full of thoughts like the usual family letters, but only a few very brief sentences, which wrote the current situation of the prince and Kangxi, and it was over.

Looking at Mao Tongtong's serious expression, Xiao Xuzi also knew the importance of the matter, so he took the letter and arranged it.

"I always feel that this year is not peaceful." Mao Tongtong frowned.

Starting from the ground movement, the atmosphere of the entire capital felt wrong. The palace also felt depressed everywhere, always as if something big was about to happen.

"Master, don't worry too much, let's stay in the mansion and not go out. Lord Belle will not be able to return to Beijing for a while and a half, and even if something happens here, it will not affect him. Qingzhu comforted.

Mao Tongtong shook his head, "I have to go back and ask Amma, such a person guesses, my heart is even more confused." ”

"It's fine." Qingzhu nodded, "After all, the master has been in the officialdom for many years, and we must be well-informed about the news." ”

Mao Tongtong pursed her lips and didn't speak. She didn't think that Mao Chengyun's news would be well-informed to her, but after all, Mao Chengyun had been in officialdom for many years, and she should be politically sensitive.

The next day, Mao Tongtong went to Mao's Mansion alone.

This day is Mao Carrier Xiumu, which Mao Tongtong has inquired about a long time ago.

In fact, Mao Chengyun and the Chen family were also discussing going to the Eighth Master's Mansion to see Mao Tongtong. After the ground moved, Mao Tongtong's side only sent a minion and did not meet.

So when they learned that Mao Tongtong was coming, both of them were very happy and hurriedly went out to greet them.

"Amma, Eniang." Mao Tongtong was also a little excited.

"I was saying to let my mother go to see you, and you came. Come in and sit. Mao Cheng said with a smile.

"What about the kids? You didn't bring it? Chen glanced behind Mao Tongtong.

"No, I want to ask Ama for something today, it's inconvenient to take them with me." Mao Tongtong said.

Mao Chengyun glanced at her, didn't say anything, and took the lead in the house.

Chen didn't ask any more questions, took Mao Tongtong's hand and entered the house together.

"But what happened?" Mao asked the carrier. Your daughter doesn't need to be polite.

"Amma, do you know that the emperor and the crown prince are injured?" Mao Tongtong is also straightforward.

"Huh?" Chen was taken aback. She was a housewife, apparently unaware of this.

Mao Cheng didn't shy away from Mao Tongtong's gaze, and nodded silently. He had always said these things differently from Chen's, but he didn't expect his daughter to ask.

"The emperor has no court. The prince just twisted his foot, and the prince was presiding over the affairs of the court. ”

"Is the prince in charge of everything in the court?" Mao Tongtong asked.

"Tongtong, why do you care about this?" Chen said with some uneasiness.

Mao Tongtong didn't answer, just looked at Mao Chengyun and waited for his answer.

"Judging from the recent recitals, they should all be approved by the prince." Mao said: "The emperor seems to be even more sick this time. Neither Ming Xiang nor Suo Xiang were able to see the emperor. ”

"Can the prince be shocked? Could anyone be suspicious of anything? Mao Tongtong frowned.

Although it is okay for the crown prince to supervise the country when the emperor is seriously ill, it is easy to suspect that the prince has done something by not letting anyone see the emperor. What's more, Mingzhu and Suo Etu are not supporting the prince!

Mao Chengyun looked at Mao Tongtong in some surprise, he didn't expect her to ask such a question!

"Amma, no one has raised objections?" Mao Tongtong asked again.

"Tongtong, what are you asking for?" Mao Chengyun also realized that something was wrong, "Could it be that Lord Belle asked you to ask?" His brow furrowed! The eighth master had the intention to compete for the position before, and he knew it in his heart. But now that the fourth master has sat on the throne of the prince, isn't the eighth master still giving up?

In his opinion, the fourth master's ability to control the court is very powerful, and it is not inferior to Kangxi, who has been the emperor for decades! It is undoubtedly not easy to compete for the position of prince with such a person! If one is not good, you will lose your net worth and life! And Mao Tongtong, as the eighth master's woman, will not end well!
