Tan Xuan's heart fell to the ground with a "bang" of the falling object.

He clasped the railing tightly with both hands, leaned forward with his upper body, and his eyes stretched down, staring at the lost objects that had not yet been noticed by his master.

The entourage saw that his upper body was hanging outside, and hurriedly grabbed his sleeve with both hands: "Master, be careful, what's down there?" The small ones go and pick them up. ”

"Nothing." Tan Xuan retracted his body, lifted the hem of his clothes and went downstairs, stepped out of three steps in one step, and almost rolled down with a grunt.

He panicked and steadied himself, strode downstairs, reached out and pushed away the two prostitutes who were in the way, and stared at the sign that had fallen to the ground.

People came and went, and the women's army sat together under the porch on the left, and several tables were full of them, and no one noticed what was going on here.

He swallowed, his hands trembled nervously, leaned over as unobtrusively as possible, looked left and right, and when he saw that no one was looking, he stepped on the sign.

He squatted down, pretended to wipe the upper of his shoes, covered it with his big sleeves, quickly grabbed the brand in his hand, and when he got up, he clenched his fists and brought it to his mouth and coughed a few times.

The hard wooden sign fell into his sleeve pocket, and he went upstairs to the official room as if he had nothing to do, and then returned to the pavilion, exchanged pleasantries with the guests, and dispersed together.

Entering the sedan chair from the door of the Yan Pavilion, he glanced back at the women's army inside.

Unaware that he had dropped something, and was still swinging his fists and drinking, only a young man seemed to notice his gaze and looked at him.

Tan Xuan was particularly sensitive to the people and things that came out of Mofu, and he recognized at a glance that this person had been ordered by the deputy envoy of the Yamen to go to the Yamen of Zhizhou to send a sunflower painting fan during the Dragon Boat Festival.

He immediately turned his head, hurriedly got into the sedan chair, lowered the sedan curtain, and whispered, "Hurry up." ”

The sedan chair man lifted the sedan chair and walked towards the Zhizhou Mansion.

Tan Xuan took out the wooden sign with one hand, lifted the curtain of the sedan car with the other hand, and looked at the wooden card by the moonlight.

The wooden plaque is less than the size of a palm, similar to the forbidden army token he had seen in Kyoto, with the word "Mo" engraved on one side, carved with a phoenix spreading its wings, which seems to be a token given by Mo Lingfeng to the guards.

Tan Xuan was a little disappointed, turned over the wooden card, glanced at it, and then widened his eyes in astonishment.

The three words "Dingyuan Army" stabbed into his eyes.

There is only the Zhenrong army in Kuanzhou, where did the Dingyuan army come from?

He frowned, thinking about where the Dingyuan army came from, clenching the wooden card tightly in both hands, and sweating profusely.

"Fuyuan!"

He remembered the Mo family's military horn many years ago.

It took a long time for him to come to his senses and quickly put the wooden card back in his sleeve pocket.

He did his best to calm himself down, and at the same time thought of the clues he had felt when he had entered the fortress many times.

The soldiers' respect for Mo Lingfeng is far more than that of a women's army commander, and the attitude of the soldiers of the family celebration to Mo Lingfeng is never mentioned.

Seeing this wooden sign, all these doubts were explained.

The Mo family's strength in the fortress is far more than a team of women's troops, but it controls most of the military power.

The Mo family intends to rebel!

When did it all start?

The change of power of a large army can be so silent, it is by no means something that can be achieved overnight, and it must have gone through a long time, and countless ways have been used to encroach on the fortress.

The entire Kuanzhou officialdom may be complicit!

Did Qin Fang die because he found out about this? Seeing through the secret, is his life also difficult to protect?

Tan Xuan's entire back was covered with cold sweat, and when the sedan chair man pressed down the sedan pole, he came back to his senses, got out of the sedan chair with his back bent, and staggered forward two steps.

The entourage helped him: "Master, have you been drunk?" The kitchen is stocked with decanting soup. ”

Tan Xuan waved his hand and strode towards the inner study, the wooden sign was heavy, as if it was going to drop him to hell.

As soon as he entered the study, he immediately closed the doors and windows, lit the candle on the table, put the wooden sign on the table, stretched out his hand to polish the ink, spread out the paper again, and took up the pen to write a book.

He didn't have time to consider the words, and directly stated that Mo Lingfeng had established himself and that most of the fort had been annexed, and when the ink was dry, he sealed it in a sheepskin envelope along with the wooden plaque.

Sealing the sheepskin in his bosom, he opened the door of the study, and ordered his men to prepare their horses at once, and he was to go to the shop himself.

Be quick.

Once Mo Leaf discovers that a token is missing, anyone who goes to the delivery shop will arouse her suspicions.

In the darkness of the night, a fast horse galloped to the delivery shop and used the express delivery to deliver the parchment envelope to Kyoto.

Everything did not escape Yin Bei's eyes, after confirming that the things had entered the delivery shop, he immediately returned to Mofu, ran to Changsuiju, and said to Yin Nan, who was awakened: "Tell the girl quickly, it's done." ”

Yin Nan got into the house, came out after a while, and said expressionlessly: "The girl said she knew." ”

In the evening of the next day, Mo Lingfeng returned to the fort with his own soldiers, and within an hour, a sentry came out of the fort with urgent military information, galloped wildly, and went to the delivery shop, to urgently deliver the military information to Beijing with 600 li.

On June 27, Kyoto was in a state of heat, and there was no hint of autumn.

Wu Jin has been in Hanlin Garden for days, close to noon, the more hot it is, the more difficult it is to be, when the waiter sweats profusely, he sees him wearing a crimson round-necked and large-sleeved robe neatly, and he is leaning on the case to turn the book, the room is stuffy, but I don't see him having a sense of dryness.

The waiter approached, only to see that Wu Jin's temples were already soaked, and arched his hand and said, "Master Wu, Zhang is asking to see you." ”

Wu Jin put down the book, got up and personally greeted the outside of the garden, held Zhang Xianfeng, who was about to salute, and said with a smile: "The sun is so big, why did the nobles come at this time?" But does Your Majesty have a will? ”

Zhang Feng's face was full of oil, the hot neckline was loose, the sleeves were rolled up, and he nodded with a smile: "Exactly, if it weren't for His Majesty's decree to invite you to go to the meeting, I wouldn't have made this trip, it's too hot." ”

He glanced at Wu Jin, and saw that Wu Jin's clothes were not messy, his face was clean, and he looked at him comfortably, so he couldn't help but secretly say that the king of Jiyang County was not authentic, and his own family could not marry his daughter, and he was not allowed to marry others?

He stretched out his hand and wiped his face: "Let's go now, Your Majesty is in the Wenzheng Palace." ”

Wu Jin nodded in response, and didn't ask much about the emperor's summons, but Zhang Fengfeng remembered the old feelings, and said a few more words: "It is the three divisions and the two envoys and the household department Shangshu are there, arguing endlessly, Your Majesty asked who is staying in Hanlin Garden today, I heard that it is you, Your Majesty said please come over." ”

When Wu Jin heard this, he knew that it was the treasury again: "Thank you for mentioning it." ”

The two walked all the way to the Wenzheng Palace, and when they arrived outside the hall, Wu Jin stopped, and Zhang was enshrined inside.

Soon there was a call, Wu Jin stepped inside, and as soon as he entered the hall, the heat disappeared, and a cool air came from both sides.

The four corners of the hall are placed with icebergs, the palace people hold the cool fan, the cool breeze is slowly fanned to the palace, on the windows on both sides, there are spotted bamboo curtains, after the wind blows, it ripples up like a green wave, and it seems more and more that the hall is quiet.

Wu Jin stepped forward and bowed to the emperor, and saw that in addition to the three divisions and deputy envoys mentioned by Zhang Fengfeng in the hall, as well as the head of the household department, there were also the prince and Wei Fan, and they also saluted one by one.
