Chapter 275: Silent When Fortune and Misfortune Come (1)
The seventh day of the seventh month is the begging festival, and for the women in the boudoir, this day is more important than the New Year.
The defense of men and women has always been a great defense, and women who have not left the cabinet must not go out at will if they are not accompanied by their relatives. For thousands of years, both the rich and the poor, and the wealthy in the market have strictly observed this ceremony.
There is another saying for the Begging Festival, which is called the Daughter's Festival. It is only on this day of the year that a woman can ask her parents to go out, but it is not in the way of etiquette.
The streets and alleys of the capital are full of people, and the laughter of young girls is endless. Xia Chengyi walked in it, but he felt lonely as he had never been, as if he had been abandoned by the world.
After kneeling in front of his mother's funeral hall for two hours early, Xia Chengyi walked out of the Jaw Palace. At this time, Xia Chengxuan and Du Chong had already entered the palace, Chu Zhong had not yet returned to investigate the cause of Xia Muchao's death, and no one in the palace could stop her.
What's more, today is the Begging Festival.
Although the capital is large, there are few places where Xia Chengyi has been, and the farthest is the willow bamboo forest in the west of the city. That day, if it weren't for the protection of Mei Yuanchen, Qi Zhi and others, she would probably have been taken away by the swordsmen sent by He Zhan.
"Willow Bamboo Forest?"
Xia Chengyi thought of the willow bamboo forest and the swallowtail pond of the willow bamboo forest.
In terms of distraction, where can it be compared to the swallowtail pond here?
She stopped abruptly and turned to walk behind her to a gray-robed man with a rugged face.
"Gluttonous Master, I want to go to the Willow Bamboo Forest. Xia Chengyi walked up to him and said softly.
The middle-aged man nodded, replied, "I'll arrange it", and disappeared into the sea of people.
After the gluttony left, another tall old man followed behind Xia Chengyi, who was another master in the Jaw Palace: Hua Fang.
After Hu Fengju and Hu Xiu'an father and son were captured, the ruling guards of the capital were split up by Xia Chengxuan and sent to various streets and alleys to deter the Quartet. The palace defense was temporarily led by the soldiers of the 28 prefectures and the Shen Sentinel Battalion.
Xia Muzhou is the main general of the Shenshao Battalion, and Duanwang also led the Shenshao Camp for many years when he was young, and the Shenshao Camp can be said to be the biggest reliance of Duanwangfu. It's just that the Shen Sentinel Camp is the Imperial Guard, and not participating in political disputes is the iron system that has been inherited for a hundred years within the Shen Sentinel Camp.
This is also the reason why King Duan never thought of using the Divine Sentinel Camp to deal with the Zhijin Guard.
After Xia Muyan and his wife committed suicide, the Yunwang faction scattered birds and beasts, and they were all dead in name only. Originally, Xia Jingyu was unwilling to support Xia Chengxuan on the throne, in his opinion, although the king of Zhen is still dead, Xia Chengcan is the best candidate for the throne. He has received all the kindness of the royal palace for many years, and now is the only opportunity to repay the kindness.
It's just that Xia Chengxuan has long been on guard, as soon as Ma Dushan's department evacuated, Du Chong sent people to the White Crane Temple in the south of the city, and took Qin Yinzhen and others directly to the Jaw Palace.
The hostess was held by someone, Xia Jingyu sighed in vain, so she had to honestly hand over the military power, and entered the palace with King Duan, Ran Jieting, Qin Xiaoyou and others.
The people of iron, the emperor of flowing water.
The people of the capital city have really seen the world, and in just two days, they have forgotten all the vicious battles that took place inside and outside the city before.
"County Lord, you can't stay outside for too long in these troubled times. Hua Fang stayed by her side and said with a look of pity. Xia Chengyi came to the Jaw King's Mansion before he was born, and he really watched her grow up.
Among the top ten guards in the house, there are three people, including Hanqi, Hun Dun, and Qiqi, who have children, but the remaining seven have never married, and everyone has always regarded the two young masters as their grandchildren.
Since the news of Xia Muchao's death came back, the Jaw Wangfu has been full of evil things, Xia Chengyi has lost a lot of weight, and the whole person is depressed, Hua Fang sees it in his eyes, and his heart can't stop hurting.
Xia Chengyi shook his head with a wry smile and didn't answer him.
"Master Hua Fang, is my brother an emperor?" After being silent for a long time, Xia Chengyi suddenly asked.
Hua Fang didn't expect her to ask about this, so he smiled a little strangely and replied, "This... I can't talk nonsense. However, King Yun has already subjugated the law, and the prince has also brought the ministers into the palace, thinking that there will be nothing wrong with this matter, and it is a matter of time before he ascends the throne. ”
At this point, he still couldn't believe that all this was true.
The biggest reliance of the Jaw Palace's seizure of the crown is the "wisdom" of the Xia Mu Dynasty, and no one will think that the Jaw Palace, which has lost the Xia Mu Dynasty, still has the power to seize the prince. It was in this situation that no one could have imagined that Xia Chengxuan achieved a Jedi counterattack, not only taking the Yun Wangfu, but even the throne was almost in his pocket.
Who would have thought?
Who would dare to imagine?
But eighteen-year-old Xia Chengxuan really did it.
"Hehe, I haven't seen my brother for two days, so I can't congratulate him yet. Xia Chengyi smiled reluctantly, but secretly bitter in his heart, "My father and mother are gone, he is thousands of miles away, and my brother is busy with family and country affairs and can't take care of me, is there anyone more pitiful than me in the world?"
Hua Fang blinked his eyes and sighed softly: "The prince has made good results, and the prince and princess have knowledge, and they should be able to rest in peace." ”
While the two were talking, a pair of unicorns rushed over, and the first one was to respond and gluttony.
"County Lord, let's go!" "Tao Tao jumped off his horse and said softly to Xia Chengyi.
Thinking that he could go for a walk in the willow bamboo forest, Xia Chengyi finally had a hint of joy, and said "um" and entered the chariot.
Hundreds of people escorted the four chariots to the west.
... ...
When the sun is rising, a horse gallops eastward.
After breakfast, Mei Yuanchen quit the people in the house and rode east without looking back.
On the way from the capital to Jinzhou, Mei Yuanchen rode a horse for the Jaw Palace. Although he is strong, he is not good at traveling. On the first day, he was able to travel 800 miles, but on the second day he only traveled more than 700 miles, and on the third day, he could not travel more than 600 miles, and when he reached the outside of Jinzhou City, he was so tired that he almost died.
The situation in the capital was extremely unfavorable to the Jaw Palace, and Mei Yuanchen's return this time was much more urgent than the previous time. Therefore, Mei Siyuan sent people to the Jinzhou garrison barracks early in the morning and asked Guo Zimu for a military horse.
Military horses have always been an important asset in the army, and they are more valuable than ordinary foot soldiers. There are 30,000 garrisons in the military camp of Jinzhou garrison, but there are only 4,500 military horses, and Mei Siyuan wants to come the strongest horse and the best foot strength among them, that is, Guo Zimu's mount.
The news of Xia Muren's death had already reached Jinzhou, and He Houtang and Guo Zimu had lost their backers, so they naturally had to be much more restrained. Not to mention that Mei Siyuan just asked for his military horse, or put forward some harsh requirements to him, Guo Zimu had to do it.
Of course, after the battle of Suzhou, Guo Zimu also admired Mei Siyuan very much in his heart. Ninety percent of his horses were given to him out of willingness.
General Guo said that this horse was called Black Wind. When the soldiers brought the horses here, they said this to Mei Yuanchen.
"Black Wind?" Mei Yuanchen smiled and praised, "Good name!"
