Yu Jinzhi was in a state of restlessness the whole day. Even though she knew that Xie Yuxiu had returned safely, she still felt uneasy.
Under this calm exterior, there were many turbulent waves hidden. The changes had not been completely resolved, and Xie Yuxiu suddenly came back. This was by no means a simple matter.
That night, Yu Jinzhi had just fallen asleep when she was woken up by the noise outside. Qingyu also ran in hurriedly.
"What's going on outside?" Yu Jinzhi asked.
"It's the Qin family. The Qin family rebelled and now their troops are at the gates of the city. The entire palace has been surrounded. Many soldiers have also come to the general's mansion, claiming that they are here to protect the princess." Qingyu replied.
Upon hearing this, Yu Jinzhi also sat up from the bed. Qin family? That’s the imperial concubine’s mother’s family? What do they want to do? Rebellion?
Although Qin Taifu's influence in the court over the years cannot be said to be all-powerful, it is true that it cannot be underestimated. His students are all over the court, and in the past few months, they have even controlled most of the court. Now he actually wants to rebel?
"Where did he get the military power?" Yu Jinzhi reacted.
Although Qin Taifu was powerful and influential, he did not have military power, so it was absolutely impossible for him to plan such a large-scale mutiny by himself.
"Yes...Yang family." Qingyu spoke after hesitating for a while.
Yang Family? Concubine Jia's brother Yang Cheng... But wasn't he already controlled? Why...
"It was the prince... The former prince's people contacted them and rescued Yang Cheng. Yang Cheng also contacted the remnants of the Yang family and the former prince's rebels. A month ago, they had already begun to hide in the capital. Another part had been stationed outside the city. They suddenly attacked the city tonight, and the gates of the capital had no time to defend, so they were attacked directly into the capital." Qingyu explained.
It was Xie Zhao again... He hadn't given up yet? Did he survive the last sword attack? Yu Jinzhi got down from the bed.
"Change clothes," Yu Jinzhi said expressionlessly.
Qingyu started to get nervous: "Princess, it's very dangerous outside. No one in the general's mansion dares to break in. And there are palace soldiers guarding outside now, so nothing will happen." Qingyu comforted her.
"Don't worry, I'm just going out for a look." Yu Jinzhi said.
She was in the General's Mansion now, and these people came here just for her, right? After all, besides her, was there anyone else in the General's Mansion who was worthy of them doing this?
"Yes..." Qingyu no longer dissuaded him.
Yu Jinzhi went directly to the gate of the general's mansion. As expected, there were already many soldiers standing outside, and the two sides were in a confrontation.
"Princess." The soldiers from the general's mansion saluted when they saw Yu Jinzhi coming out.
Yu Jinzhi nodded and looked at the person opposite her. She didn't know who that person was and had never seen him before.
"Your servant greets the princess." He was fine, but his behavior was frivolous and it seemed that he didn't have much sincerity.
Yu Jinzhi's expression turned ugly, and of course she spoke rudely.
"You also know that you are a slave?" Yu Jinzhi sounded "aggressive" as soon as she opened her mouth.
The person opposite was obviously stunned for a moment, but his expression changed quickly.
"I...I came here on the orders of the Grand Tutor to protect the princess and the general's mansion. But when we got here, the people in the general's mansion wouldn't let us in. What's the reason?" The man also spoke rudely.
Yu Jinzhi sneered, then took two steps forward.
"By the order of the Grand Tutor? Who is he? How could he let you follow his orders to surround the General's Mansion? This princess was personally appointed by the late emperor. Even if the Grand Tutor is here, he has no right to show off in front of this princess. Are you showing off your superior power?"
"The general's mansion has a large number of soldiers, and all of them have been to the battlefield. How can it rely on a bunch of rabble like you to protect it? You are taking chicken feathers as a token of authority. Do you think that what a tutor says is an imperial decree?!" Yu Jinzhi's tone became heavier and heavier, and the person opposite him was obviously intimidated by this posture.
but……
"Before Your Majesty left, the Grand Tutor was entrusted by Your Majesty to be in charge of court affairs, so he naturally has this right. Although the princess was canonized by the late emperor, she is only a princess after all, and a woman at that. Could it be that she knows more than the Grand Tutor?" the man said.
"Today, no outsiders are allowed to enter the General's Mansion without the order of this princess. If you want to go in, leave the body inside." Yu Jinzhi looked coldly at the people in front of him. A place like the General's Mansion, in fact, they can offend it at will?
The person opposite him obviously had a cold expression on his face.
"Is the princess determined to go against the Grand Tutor to the end?" he asked.
"Dispatching troops to surround the general's mansion without permission is a serious crime. Opposing? How have I, the princess, opposed the Grand Tutor? Aren't you here to protect me? Do you really think these soldiers in the general's mansion are just for show?" Yu Jinzhi refused to give in.
After saying this, Yu Jinzhi didn't care what the person opposite her looked like, and directly ordered the person next to her: "Watch the general's mansion, anyone who tries to break in by force will be killed on the spot! This princess is going to rest now, anyone who dares to disturb this princess's rest will be killed without mercy." After saying this, Yu Jinzhi lightly returned to the general's mansion, leaving only those people outside who wanted to break in but didn't dare to.
Before coming here, Master Qin had already given special instructions. As long as Yu Jinzhi was in the general's mansion, there was no need to tear each other's faces right away. After all, no one knew whether Xie Yuxiu had left any tricks for Yu Jinzhi.
If she pushed people too far, she would do something that would not be worth the loss. So before everything was settled, she couldn't fall out with Yu Jinzhi and could only stay trapped for the time being.
but……
Can they trap Yu Jinzhi just because they want to?
"Prepare the horses, I want to go into the palace!" Yu Jinzhi said seriously as soon as the door of the general's mansion was closed.
Qingyu was stunned when she heard this.
"Princess, the palace is full of dangers. How can you go out now? Besides, those outside are all Qin Taifu's men. What if they know that you have left the general's mansion and something unexpected happens?" Qingyu really disagreed this time.
But Yu Jinzhi had obviously made up her mind, and she called Liang Qing over.
"Can you take me out?" Yu Jinzhi asked.
"My lord, it is possible. It is not difficult to leave the mansion." Liang Qing replied.
Just saying this was enough, and Yu Jinzhi no longer hesitated.
"Just stay in the general's mansion, it's safe here. And as long as you are in the general's mansion, they won't think I'm gone. Just stay here, I'll be fine." Yu Jinzhi said these words to Qingyu.
How could Qingyu be willing to do that? But before she could say anything, Liang Qing had already left through the corner door of the backyard with Yu Jinzhi.
Qingyu stamped her feet anxiously.
