Winter snow, the capital because of the death of the prince and a thick layer of haze, and outside the capital, the rebels of the king of Yue are still raging, fortunately, the army led by Jiang Cheng and Xu Junze has converged with Zhenguo Gong Lei Yi, intercepted the rebels south of the Qingjiang River, and began to clear the rebels in the mode of encirclement and suppression on three sides.

As soon as the lunar month begins, all academies have also entered the holiday mode one after another, but people do not have the joy of the upcoming New Year, everyone is worried that there will be unpredictable things happening, and even the number of displaced people has begun to increase.

Late that night, Lin Shuran had not fallen asleep due to physical reasons, and then heard the voice of Lingqin's announcement, saying that it was the exact news that Mei had just gotten, and Wei Qianjie, the Marquis of Dingyuan, was uniting his former subordinates and the generals of the Quartet military camp, as if he was planning to surround the imperial city, and the situation became a little uncontrollable.

Lin Shuran hurriedly called Honggu over and told her these things, but she didn't expect Honggu to say that she already knew, in fact, because Lin Shuran's health was getting worse and worse, Honggu hid a lot of things, and told her that the situation outside seemed urgent, but in fact, it was something else, so she could stay at home with peace of mind.

The capital is likely to be chaotic, how can Lin Shuran feel at ease, and early the next morning, she received a secret letter from Lei Yingying and Princess Qing, all of which asked her to protect the General's Mansion, and the implication was that Wei Qianjie, the Marquis of Yuanyuan, was likely to be trapped in the capital.

"Mother, is there going to be a big event in this city?" After the academy holiday, Xu Minghao and the others returned to the house, perhaps because the atmosphere around them was too different from usual, so they and the children were also sensitive to the abnormality.

Lin Shuran became more and more frightened, she wrapped herself in a thick fur, Xu Mingzhou, Xu Minghao and Xu Mingxuan three brothers stood side by side in front of her, all three of them had worries and doubts in their eyes, as if they knew something.

"Why do you say that?" Lin Shuran pretended to be puzzled and asked.

At this time, the sixth Xu Mingzhou stepped forward and said to Lin Shuran with a very serious expression: "Mother, I heard from a few friends in Qiuhua Lane, there have been a lot more soldiers in the city recently, and they are not very stable at night, and every family closes the door, and even the number of people who travel during the day has become less. ”

"My friends also said that they have noticed that something is wrong in the city recently, and the officials of the military department have been coming in and out of the yamen more frequently than before." Xu Minghao also told Lin Shuran the news he knew, those friends of his were all small beggars scattered all over the capital, and their ability to listen to news and perceive danger was stronger than ordinary people.

Xu Mingxuan usually doesn't like to use his brain to think about these seemingly complicated things, but this time he said: "Mother, I suspect that there are people in this capital who are colluding with King Yue, they want to attack the imperial city from inside and outside, we must make a counterattack first." ”

"Shall we?" Lin Shuran looked at Xu Mingxuan with a surprised expression, when did this kid speak so methodically.

Xu Mingxuan nodded affirmatively, and then said: "Mother, according to the news said by the friends of the sixth brother and the seventh brother, I think there are three places that need the most attention in the capital now, one is the palace, one is the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and the other is the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

After listening to Xu Mingxuan's analysis of the Tao, Lin Shuran was even more surprised, he was really impressed by Shibei for three days, I really didn't expect Xu Mingxuan to learn to judge these at a young age, I have to say that his conclusions are still very accurate, and now the three weirdest places in the capital are the Imperial Palace, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It stands to reason that Lin Shuran can know that Dingyuan Marquis Wei Qianjie is in close contact with the Quartet military camp guarding the capital in private, so it is impossible for the far-sighted emperor Zhao You not to know, not to mention that she also asked Mei to bring the news to Lei Zhanpeng, and now he is responsible for guarding the emperor closely, but she knows that Dingyuan Marquis Wei Qianjie has bad intentions, but the emperor has not made any reaction for a long time, and she also feels a little strange.

Then there is Chen Yanzhi, the prime minister, Lin Shuran also felt very strange, when he wanted to establish the prince, he was standing with Wei Qianjie, Marquis of Dingyuan, and now the eldest prince was suddenly killed, and he and his ministers wrote to depose the emperor, and even now he and Yuan Chong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, are closer than Wei Qianjie, Marquis of Dingyuan.

Lin Shuran couldn't guess the mind of this Prime Minister Chen, he married his daughter into the Hou Mansion, and now he is bent on opposing the Hou Mansion, and in the current tense situation, he is getting close to the people of the Ministry of War, which side is he on?!

"Since you also feel that the capital will not be peaceful recently, then stay at home and don't let me worry, and help me take care of my younger brothers and sisters." Lin Shuran felt that she couldn't sit at home and wait, which made her heart even more anxious, if something really happened, she would at least protect the people in this house.

"Mother, where are you going?" Xu Mingzhou and the three of them all heard Lin Shuran's words and hurriedly asked.

"I'll go back to Taifu's mansion, I have to ask my father about some things!" At a critical time, the person Lin Shuran can think of to help her solve her questions is her father Lin Youxing, her father Lin Youxing usually doesn't like to participate in court battles, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know everything about the court, in fact, she thinks that her father Lin Youxing can see through everything.

So, Lin Shuran went to the Taifu Mansion, and met her father Lin Youxing in the house, before Wen Shangqing promised to come forward to hold a literary event, and the court sent her father Lin Youxing to assist, although Wen Shangqing did not think too much of Lin Youxing, but the two cooperated tacitly.

The literary event was held for a month, everyone was very satisfied, not only Wenshang Halal accepted two disciples, even Lin Youxing also made a group of literati friends, the room was full of outstanding works from this literary event, there were calligraphy and paintings, and there were poems and songs, during this time Lin Youxing has been at home with these calligraphy and paintings, it seems that the ups and downs outside have nothing to do with him, and he doesn't care.

Lin Youxing met Lin Shuran in his study, and as soon as he saw her, he pulled her to appreciate the calligraphy and paintings he received at this literary event, and asked her to follow the comments and appreciation.

Lin Shuran didn't have the leisure and elegance of her father Lin Youxing at this time, she just glanced at it from a distance, and said to Lin Youxing, whose eyes were still on the calligraphy and painting: "Dad, it's already so fierce outside?" You really don't care at all? ”

"Fierce? What's the fuss? Lin Youxing didn't seem to know what Lin Shuran was talking about, and then suddenly clapped his hands lightly, looked at Lin Shuran with a smile and said, "You mean the rebellion of King Yue of Qingzhou, right?" Don't worry, with the three of Wu'anhou, Uncle and Zhenguo Gong, King Yue can't turn over the big storm and can't celebrate the New Year, this rebellion will be peaceful! ”

Lin Shuran looked at Lin Youxing in disbelief, her father's tone was too determined? What the hell is he basing his judgment on?! Are you kidding?!
