Chapter 249: The capital is in turmoil
After a few days, the matter between Zhao Yunqing and Chu Xiao has finally settled.
No matter how many things Zhao Yunqing smashed on her side, King Cheng An didn't pay attention to her, but just asked his subordinates to watch her more closely.
And the things she broke were listed like King Cheng An and sent to King Ruixian.
In addition to the things smashed by Zhao Yunqing, there was also more than half of the valuable jade porcelain in the list for no reason.
When King Ruixian received the letter, he was so angry that he dropped two cups.
For all this, King Cheng'an does not have any psychological burden, after all, he is on his own territory, and it is black and white, so he has to have the final say.
And these days, Zhao Yunqing is eating and drinking in his house for nothing, how can he do it without charging some interest? His Anwang's Mansion is not a shelter.
Putting the stack of silver tickets that his subordinates had taken back into his sleeve, King Cheng'an's face did not change, looking at the two pairs of eyes that came through the opposite side, and smiled gently and harmlessly.
"It's a good brother, this King Ruixian is polite."
The corners of Ye Hao's lips twitched slightly, her eyes moved away from the exquisite food on the table, and she looked at him with a snicker unconsciously.
This can't help King Ruixian's politeness, after all, everyone has thrown the bill in front of him, can he King Ruixian be cheeky to deny it?
If it weren't for the fact that King Cheng An was still stabbing in front of them a few days ago, he would have seen King Cheng'an's helpless look at him at this time, and I am afraid that even she would have to believe it.
However, this is not a big problem, it is King Ruixian who provokes trouble first, and picking up some wool can be regarded as a little compensation.
Xie Yunshu just smiled and didn't answer, sipping the wine with a breezy appearance.
The game was set up successfully, and at noon, King Cheng An specially set up a table and beckoned them to celebrate together.
To put it bluntly, several masters of the Cheng'an Palace's mansion know very well about it, but the result of the protagonists during the period is a foregone conclusion, and there is no way to take them.
Thinking of Chu Xiao's gloomy face, Xie Yunshu hooked his lips and was in a very good mood, and even Ye Hao and King Cheng'an noticed it, and frequently looked at him.
The gaze was too intense, and he glanced at the two of them, and the two gazes immediately retracted.
"Come, Mr. Xie, this king will give you a drink."
King Cheng An lifted the wine jug and poured wine into his own wine glass, then picked up the wine glass, gestured to Xie Yunshu, who was sitting at the bottom, and said with a smile:
"If it weren't for Mr. Xie, I'm afraid this king would have been unbearable."
Xie Yunshu didn't shirk it, he raised the wine glass like King Cheng'an and drank it all after signaling.
King Cheng'an poured another glass of wine and also toasted Ye Hao.
She is not hypocritical, she drinks it in one gulp, but she can't quite understand the behavior of men who like to drink.
It's really unpleasant.
The atmosphere was harmonious, and the three of them talked and laughed, and mentioned their next plans and plans.
While we were talking, someone asked to see me.
King Cheng'an let people in, and the man was slightly blessed, trotted to his side, leaned down and whispered in his ear for a while, and then was retreated by King Cheng'an.
He looked at Xie Yunshu and Ye Hao, the usual gentle smile on his face was slightly raised, and his tone was a little solemn:
"There's an accident in the capital."
Xie Yunshu and Ye Hao glanced at each other, and their expressions became serious.
"Last night's queen's birthday, the prince of Zhenbei intended to rebel and has been taken down. The matter is very widespread, and a large number of people have been replaced in the court."
"Not killed on the spot?"
Xie Yunshu frowned.
King Cheng An shook his head:
"No, hundreds of people were lost in the palace last night, but the concubine was put in prison, and the emperor was going to summon the king of Zhenbei to return to Beijing that night, but the king of Zhenbei resisted, and raised troops towards the capital, claiming to clear the king's side."
Xie Yunshu had already stopped what she was doing, she put down her chopsticks and sneered:
"Just a concubine, how can you have the courage to rebel? It's just the abandoned son of the king of Zhenbei. Tiger poison still doesn't eat children, but the king of the north of this town has made a bloody investment."
Smiling slightly, King Cheng An looked at him and said:
"Speaking of which, this matter involves a loyal family that is similar to you."
Ye Hao raised her eyebrows and glanced at Xie Yunshu, a little surprised.
"That's the Hou family in Zhenbei."
He said with interest:
"The king of Zhenbei stabbed out the matter of the emperor's killing of the Marquis of Zhenbei on the night of the protest, and now this matter is in an uproar. And the king of Zhenbei, in the name of avenging the Marquis of Zhenbei and the side of the Qing monarch, led the Zhenbei army to the capital."
The Beihou family of this town has been loyal for generations, and it is by virtue of their own achievements on the battlefield that they have reached this position step by step.
Zhenbei Hou is extremely honest and honest, has an excellent reputation among the people, and has been all the rage.
Today's saint is also a mediocre person, afraid of the rights of the king of Zhenbei and the marquis of Zhenbei, listening to people's slander, and not caring whether it is true or not, and even made false testimony to slander the Zhenbei Hou family and harm a loyal martyr.
It's ridiculous to say that the emperor is jealous of the Zhenbei Hou because he is afraid of the Zhenbei King, obviously he ordered the Zhenbei Hou to secretly monitor the Zhenbei Wang. But now, he suspects that the two are secretly colluding and listening to slander and harming loyal ministers.
Ye Hao frowned her good-looking eyebrows, and a layer of frost appeared on her face:
"It's better to say than to sing, what is the mind of King Zhenbei, he doesn't know the world?"
The king of Zhenbei and the marquis of Zhenbei have always been a thorn in the emperor's heart, and this time the king of Zhenbei is under the banner of avenging the marquis of Zhenbei, but it seems that the two are deeply affectionate. However, in fact, when Lin Bin was exiled to Lingnan, there was never any man from the king of Zhenbei who came to look for him.
"Who doesn't know?"
His eyes fell on her, Xie Yunshu saw that she was so concerned about the Lin family, it was inevitable that she was a little uncomfortable, but it was not obvious on Dieli's face.
"The king of Zhenbei wants to rebel, and he is almost on the surface, and the Hou family of Zhenbei may still have his handwriting! If this is not the case, how can he use this excuse to subdue the Zhenbei army for his own use?"
In the name of avenging the Marquis of Zhenbei, as long as Lin Bin, the only son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, died, no one would think of the King of Zhenbei. After all, on the surface, he has a deep affection for the Marquis of Zhenbei, and he did not hesitate to rebel in order to avenge the Marquis of Zhenbei, which can be seen by everyone.
This is just one of the crises that followed......
Xie Yunshu's eyes flickered, and he met King Cheng'an's eyes.
"Lord Wang, how did you think about your previous proposal? Now the situation is unpredictable, whether the emperor is on the throne or the king of Zhenbei is on the throne, it will be harmful to you."
Now King Cheng'an's situation is embarrassing, but King Zhenbei is by no means a good stubble, he is even more tyrannical than the current emperor, but he is not as brainless as the emperor.
Moreover, the king of Zhenbei is a ruthless man, if he ascends the throne, I am afraid that the rest of the vassal kings will suffer sooner or later.
How can a person who even has to calculate his own parents have mercy on his siblings? What's more, it's not a sibling of the same mother.
Expecting him to ask like this, King Cheng An smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"This king hasn't thought about it yet, let's take a look."
Hearing his answer, Xie Yunshu's face was as usual, obviously not surprised.
He shook the wine glass in his hand, and the bright yellow liquid at the bottom of the glass had already bottomed out.
It only takes a little more time to see the bottom out.
"I still advise the prince to think more about himself, life is in the world, only by living, can he be free."
The smile on his lips faded, and King Cheng'an's eyes were deep.
The matter in the capital has been spread by people with good intentions, and the rumors have come out all of a sudden, and now almost everyone in the streets and alleys is talking about it, and the atmosphere is very strange for a while.
No one knows what the battle situation in the capital is, only that the Marquis of Zhenbei and the 50,000 forbidden troops in the capital have set off separately, and it is believed that a battle will start in the near future.
The Marquis of Zhenbei is deeply loved by the people, and now that the incident has come out, many people are angry about it.
As soon as Xia Fuhan heard about this time, he immediately packed up his things and hurried to find Fu Ru'an.
When Fu Ru'an came, he was still basking in the sun in the yard, looking idle, but his pale face and light breathing also showed that he was a sick man.
"Ru'an, let's go, now pack up your things and go back to Jiangnan with me immediately."
Xia Fuhan stepped forward, his face was anxious, and his outstretched hand only gently pushed Fu Ru'an awake.
Fu Ru'an opened his eyes, and his eyes were hazy. After a moment of clarity in his eyes, he couldn't help frowning.
"Why do you want to go back to Gangnam?"
He raised his eyes and saw the thin sweat overflowing from Xia Fuhan's forehead, and was slightly stunned:
"Did something happen in the capital?"
He doesn't know yet? Xia Fuhan thought to himself, after all, Fu Ru'an doesn't go out much on weekdays, and he doesn't like to inquire about things outside.
Xia Fuhan put down his burden and briefly told him the ins and outs of the matter, and Fu Ru'an's face became solemn.
Just as Xia Fuhan was about to clean up his things for him, he heard him speak:
"I'm not going back to Jiangnan, you can go back."
"Why don't you go back to the capital, you ......?"
Xia Fuhan was anxious.
Fu Ru'an smiled faintly:
"Uncle, you also know my body, if I go back, I will have to ask you to take care of it on the way, but it will delay the hour."
"But ......"
He was really not at ease.
"It's okay, I can take care of myself, you can go back in peace."
Fu Ruan was helpless.
Xia Fuhan wrung his eyebrows and looked at him fixedly for a while, and seeing that his attitude was insistent, there was nothing he could do.
"Okay, okay, then I'll keep some people by your side, otherwise I won't worry."
He was just about to open his mouth to refuse, but was blocked by Xia Fuhan's eye knife, so he had to be silent.
"Be careful on the road."
Xia Fuhan left a large number of guards around him, and after carefully admonishing his subordinates, he left with peace of mind.
He carried the burden on his back and hurriedly found King Cheng'an.
At that time, the three of them had just finished their luncheon.
Seeing Xia Fuhan, Zhao Gaowei was not surprised, but greeted him with a smile.
"I'm going back to Jiangnan, Lord Wang, can Ru'an take care of it more at your convenience?"
Zhao Gaowei also knew Fu Ru'an's physical condition, so he immediately agreed.
"In such a hurry? How many people are you going to take back?"
He frowned and looked at the more than twenty people who were following Xia Fuhan.
Sensing Zhao Gaowei's gaze, Xia Fuhan was a little helpless:
"Just follow me, be careful on the road, you shouldn't have any problems."
When the other two heard this, they looked at each other and did not speak.
Glancing at the two people next to him, Xia Fuhan pursed his lips, did not communicate with them too much, thanked Zhao Gaowei and left in a hurry with someone.
When she returned to her yard, Ye Hao bit her lip, and after thinking deeply, she ordered someone to call Lin Bin.
When he came, his face was still a little solemn, and he obviously knew about those things.
He knew the relationship between his father and the king of Zhenbei, and he also understood the cattiness of his family's tragic experience, and hated the king of Zhenbei even more, and wanted to go back to command his own Zhenbei army.
But he couldn't.
At this time, he heard that Ye Hao wanted him to protect Xia Fuhan's safety, so he agreed without thinking about it.
And Ye Hao asked Lin Bin to go with her, because she knew Lin Bin's thoughts and wanted to find something for him to distract.
In these two ways, now that the capital is not peaceful, Xia Fuhan wants to go back to Jiangnan, and he will definitely attract the attention of some people on the way, and Lin Bin is strong in martial arts, it is better for them to go together than two people to be separated.
