Chapter 18: The Storm Rises
In the imperial city of Yong'an Palace, Zhang Xiuchun leaned on the couch, holding the sleeping little emperor in his arms; holding a note in his hand, apparently sent by Zhuo Xueying about the night's battle, after a long time, Zhang Xiuchun said: "How many days can Wen Sicheng go to the capital?" A soft voice sounded beside him: "Yu Niangniang, according to the distance, it should be able to arrive at noon the day after tomorrow" Zhang Xiuchun did not respond after hearing it, but gently tapped the table with his fingers, and after a long time, Zhang Xiuchun said: "Go and invite the lord of Xiling County" There was a eunuch outside the door, and after a while, there was a voice outside the door, Zhao Xueqin walked to the front of the couch to bow down, and heard Zhang Xiuchun say: "Get up! Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Zhao Xueqin stood up when he heard the words, Zhang Xiuchun handed over the little emperor in his arms to his grandmother, got up and walked out of the door, along the way Zhang Xiuchun and Zhao Xueqin were speechless, the two went straight to the pavilion in the middle of the lake, Zhang Xiuchun handed the note in his hand to Zhao Xueqin, stood in the pavilion with the handrail and looked at the night in the lake, Zhao Xueqin looked at the note in his hand, and his beautiful eyes were filled with more and more intense surprise, after a long time Zhao Xueqin asked: "Tan family, is this going to be reversed?" Zhang Xiuchun held the railing of the pavilion and said: " It shouldn't be, what happened last night should have been done by Tan Yingpeng alone, otherwise with Tan Yu's temperament, how could he act so easily. Zhao Xueqin secretly bowed his head when he heard this, and Zhang Xiuchun continued: "It's also a loss to think about it properly, and capture Tan Yingpeng without killing him, otherwise those old guys will turn against the sky again." Zhao Xueqin said: "Yes! Tan Yingpeng attacked Qin's car at night, after all, it was the words of Brother Wen's family, and it would indeed be tricky if several families joined forces to mess around." Zhang Xiuchun turned around and walked to Zhao Xueqin's side, and said softly: "Qin'er, I've suffered you all these years! This time Wen Sicheng came back, I immediately arranged for you two to get married." When the first emperor left, he was still entangled in this matter! I think you can't wait for a long time!" Zhao Xueqin's face suddenly turned red, "What did the imperial sister-in-law say? Who wants to marry that wood?" Zhang Xiuchun looked at the shy Zhao Xueqin and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I won't tease you!" After Wen Sicheng returned to the capital, our struggle with various families really began, and I had to go and prepare. "What is the imperial sister-in-law going to do?" Zhang Xiuchun smiled and said: "It's not me!, but you, this is the most important step for you to go" Zhao Xueqin said suspiciously: "I, what does the imperial sister-in-law want me to do?" Zhang Xiuchun suddenly said solemnly: "Go and invite someone!" Zhao Xueqin's eyes widened and said, "Is it him?"
In Tan Yinglong's army, Tan Yinglong led the army to pursue Wen Sicheng when it was less than a hundred miles, suddenly a soldier came to report, saying that his father sent someone to bring the password, Tan Yinglong did not know so that he found out after the future was invited to come, it was not someone else but his father's housekeeper, this person was his father's cronies, since he was a child, he watched his two brothers grow up, Tan Yinglong asked suspiciously: "Uncle Xiong, why are you here? Is there something wrong with the family?" Second young master, there is nothing to do at home, to put it bluntly, before I came, the master repeatedly instructed you to collect your troops and return to the camp immediately, otherwise not only will you not be able to save the eldest young master, but even the second young master you may fold in!" Tan Yinglong was furious when he heard this: "Impossible, my eldest brother was arrested by Wen Sicheng, how can my father not care." I will definitely leave Wen Sicheng's murder piece of armor behind, so that he will know the fate of offending my Tan family. When the housekeeper surnamed Xiong heard him say this, he also sighed helplessly: "Second young master, before coming this time, the head of the family has made it clear that the eldest young master attacked Qin Cha at night to violate the law of the country, and must be handed over to the criminal department for legal action, the second young master only sent troops this time, and did not contact Wen Sicheng, and he has not made a big mistake, so it is not too late to turn back!" Tan Yinglong became more and more angry the more he listened, and shouted loudly: "My eldest brother is the eldest grandson of the Tan family, how many dares does Tan Yu have, and he doesn't care about it?" After saying that, Tan Yinglong was going to take someone to chase him, and the housekeeper immediately stepped forward and hugged Tan Yinglong's leg and said: "Second young master, the master specially instructed before, even if the eldest young master is handed over to the criminal department, the master will find a way, if the second young master has any more mistakes, the master's vein will be over!" Tan Yinglong heard this, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, and after a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Where is my father now?" "The master asked the second young master to return to the camp immediately, and then he went to the barracks, and when the master arrived, he would discuss the future." Tan Yinglong looked up at the distance and shouted, "Order, go back to the camp." ”
After a long time, a scout came to Wen Sicheng's rear team, and when he approached Wen Sicheng, he said, "General, the pursuers behind have withdrawn inexplicably." Wen Sicheng frowned, "Withdraw? I underestimated Tan Yinglong! Go tell Xiao Ran, withdraw, this ambush is blind." After the scout got the order, he rushed and Wen Sicheng continued: "Order, return to Beijing at full speed." ”
