He Zao just nodded slightly to them, and followed Ah Che out of the palace. Back at the Junwang Mansion, Ah Che instructed her to take her two sons with her at home, "I will ask Ji Hui to pay attention to the movements around me." ”

He didn't say it too clearly, but He Zao had already faintly felt the turbulent waves hidden under the calm, she nodded, and looked at the other party worriedly, "You must also be careful in the palace." ”

Ah Che bowed, "Don't worry." He didn't linger any longer, and quickly turned away.

After he left, He Zao asked people to close the gate of the county king's mansion, and the idlers and others all went back to their own houses, not to stay in the courtyard, and soon the entire palace was cleaned up, and He Zao gathered He Laosan Chen and them together, holding his two sons, quietly waiting for the news from the palace, Ji Hui and the guards patrolled outside.

In the middle of the night, He Laosan and Chen couldn't support it anymore, so they went inside to sleep for a while, and the two sons were also carried inside, and Zhou watched them sleep.

He Zao sat outside, also a little tired, lying on the table and taking a nap, and was suddenly woken up by a drum beating outside. Her mind was clouded, and when she opened her eyes, she hadn't come back to her senses.

Chunxiao ran in from outside, looking at He Zao, with residual horror in his eyes, "Princess Jun, the emperor is gone." ”

He Zao came to her senses, in fact, when she came out of the palace, she already had this premonition, she got up from her seat, tried her best to be quiet, and ordered, "Put away all the irrelevant colors in the house, replace them with white, we should have a white cloth in the warehouse."

Chunxiao nodded again and again, "Yes, it was all available at the beginning." "After all, the emperor has been sick for half a year, and some things have to be prepared in advance.

He had already nodded, "Very good, go ahead." Chunxiao and Xia Chan went to arrange it together.

The bell is still ringing again and again, a full eighty-one times, which means that the emperor has died, and at this time, probably the entire capital is listening to this and this bell.

He Zao asked people to call Ji Hui and ask him to strictly guard against the safety around the mansion, this time is the most panicked time, and it is also the most dangerous time, because they don't know what the situation in the palace is, even if they are fully prepared, there may be accidents, Ah Che has already arranged it before, so Ji Hui is very calm, responds, and turns around and goes out after saluting.

Qiu Ye also brought a set of clothes and asked He Zao to change them, and the two little ones were also woken up from their sleep by Zhou and changed into a small jade-colored clothes. It was about the middle of the night when they woke up, the two little ones were very excited, they couldn't sleep at all, they jumped around on the bed, there was no way, He Zao had to go and intimidate them.

Brother An was fine, but Brother Shun twisted his little buttocks, and got into Chen's arms to ask for comfort, and Chen said angrily, "The child is still young, what can you understand, don't be so impatient." ”

He Chun'er was also very uncalm, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Why don't I let your brother-in-law go out to inquire, now the whole capital should be full of panic, and there are many people who go out to investigate." ”

He Zao shook his head, "No need, if there is any accident, Ah Che will send someone to send a letter from the palace, we are just asking around outside without a brain, but it's not good." “

He Chun'er nodded, "That's what you said." ”

In the early hours of the morning, there was a sudden chaos outside, with the sound of troops running in a hurry, shouting, fighting, horses' hooves, and buildings burning there

In the distance, you can see the sky-high fire, almost half of the sky is red, and you can smell the overwhelming fire burning, as if everything is burned.

Suddenly, Sibao lost his voice and shouted, "That's the direction of the Imperial Palace. ”

He Zao looked over, and sure enough, according to this distance, it should be the palace, she was very worried about Ah Che, but in front of everyone, she couldn't show it.

At this time, everyone was sleepless, gathered in the courtyard to watch, Chen asked with some horror, "Will the fire spread to us, what is going on, why is there still a fight outside, and who set the fire?"

He Zao was silent, her expression was a little serious, and Ji Hui suddenly hurried in from outside, "Princess Jun, you go into the house and wait." ”

Seeing that his expression was wrong, before He Zao could ask, he heard a commotion outside the door, accompanied by a rough shout, "Brothers, here live the wife and two sons of King Shenjun, and if we catch them, it means that we have glory and wealth." Someone, give me an attack. ”

There was a sound of fighting outside, He Zao and they were all pale, Sibao and Li Hong, who were men in the end, calmed down, and immediately said, "Let's go, let's go out and have a look." ”

Sibao turned his head to look at He Zao, "You take your father and mother into the house to hide, remember what we said before." ”

He had already nodded, and watched worriedly as several of them men ran out with the guards, she retracted her gaze, tried her best to calm herself, and ordered, "Gather all the male and female servants together, the male servants will follow the guards to the outside to guard the county king's mansion, and the maids will pick up all the weapons that can be defended and wait here, we can't sit still." ”

Although everyone was pale and trembling, they didn't know what to do, looking at He Zao's solemn appearance, they all hurried to follow He Zao's instructions to get busy.

Chen grabbed He Zao, "Zao'er, are you really going to fight, what should we do, let's run away?"

Before He Zao could reply, He Chun'er hurriedly grabbed her, "Mother, don't make a mess, listen to Zao'er's orders." ”

At this time, the rest are their relatives and henchmen, and He Zao has nothing to hide, so he said directly, "You go to the place I said and wait, and if something is wrong, you will immediately retreat according to what we said." ”

He Laosan shook his head, "Zao'er, what about you?"

He Zao looked at the firelight over there, and his tone was firm, "I can't escape yet, at least, I want to make sure that Ah Che is safe." ”

He Laosan wanted to say something, but He Chun'er dragged him and shook his head at him, he closed his mouth and looked at He Zao with some concern, He Zao pretended not to see his gaze, called Chunxiao, and went out of the second door with himself and came to Sibao and them.

"How," she asked.

Sibao motioned her to look outside, there was a wooden ladder next to it, and He went to look outside in the morning, and saw a crowd of dense crows.

Taking advantage of the moonlight and torches, she could see that these people were just a rabble, not the army of the imperial court as she had imagined, and the dress of the leader was more like bandits.

She couldn't help but be surprised, got down from the wooden ladder, and asked in a low voice, "Look at how these people have two or three thousand people, but isn't the capital very tightly guarded, how can so many people suddenly appear and no one finds out?"
