The heart of the red mansion is like jade

Chapter 130 Four

Concubine Yao knew that Yuan Chun ruined her good deeds, and she felt regretful and angry in her heart. She felt that she should have understood Yuan Chun when Yuan Chun lost power. She wondered, this Yuan Chun was deposed because of Lin Daiyu. And how could she protect Lin Daiyu so much.

Concubine Yao was thinking about it when she saw a slight commotion outside. Concubine Yao thought it was the maids in her yard who were arguing again, so she said angrily: "You servants who don't have long eyes, why are you making so much noise? It killed you all."

Concubine Yao originally thought that the courtyard would be quieter in this way, but she did not expect that the courtyard was still full of people. Concubine Yao was about to get angry when she saw a young maid running in and said, "Your Majesty is not well. Many officers and soldiers have come outside. Our palace is surrounded. Several sisters tried to escape, but they were all caught by the guards."

Concubine Yao was shocked when she heard the words, her first reaction was that her assassination of Daiyu might have revealed her truth, she was busy thinking of a way to get rid of the crime, but she couldn't think of a way for a while, the little maid was young, facing Concubine Yao said: "Your Majesty, let's think about how to escape."

Concubine Yao was in a state of confusion at this time, when she heard what the little palace maid said, she felt it was very correct, and was busy thinking about how to get out, and in the middle of a circle, she saw Feng Lanying brought some guards in, and said to Concubine Yao: "The emperor has According to the decree, Yao's character is not good, and he assassinated the princess. He will be imprisoned in the prison first, and will be released after the trial of the case is clear. The Qionghua Palace and others will be imprisoned in the Qionghua Palace."

Concubine Yao was shocked when she heard the imperial decree, and said: "The emperor will definitely not treat this palace like this, I want to see the emperor, and this palace wants to see the emperor."

After hearing this, Feng Lanying said coldly: "This is the emperor's decree. Doesn't Concubine Yao think that we dare to pass on the imperial decree?" Looking at the imperial decree shining in Feng Lanying's hand, Concubine Yao suddenly realized that the emperor was really angry this time.Concubine Yao was paralyzed on the ground, and a guard brought two nuns over, took off Concubine Yao's fine clothes, and took Concubine Yao away.Concubine Yao left the palace where she had lived for more than twenty years and never came back.

In Qifeng Palace, the emperor and queen comforted Daiyu and Xiruo, and then sent people to send them back to the palace. The eldest princess and Princess Beijing were waiting for Daiyu, and Shui Rong also knew about Daiyu's assassination , only stayed by Daiyu's side all the time.When Shui Rong heard the news of Daiyu's assassination, he was very anxious. Although someone told him that Daiyu was fine, he didn't feel relieved until he saw Daiyu. Instead of relying on her, she who had been calm all the time couldn't help the red circles of her eyes, and tears fell down.

Shui Rong was very distressed, bid farewell to the emperor and queen, and then sent Daiyu back to the Lin residence.Because Daiyu was accompanied by Shui Rong, she quickly rested, and Shui Rong looked at Daiyu with tears on her face, and felt very distressed. When Daiyu fell asleep, Shui Rong asked Zijuan to take care of Daiyu, while she herself Went to the study, where Feng Ziying was waiting for him.

In the early morning of the second day, the prince and princess knew what had happened the day before. The prince hurriedly went to Qifeng Palace, and although the princess could not leave the palace by herself, she also sent a servant girl to Lin's mansion to take care of Daiyu.The fourth prince and the seventh prince were very worried, so they ran to the Lin Mansion early in the morning to inquire about Daiyu's news.Ouyang Ziyi didn't say anything, and went directly to Shui Rong's place to find evidence with Shui Rong.The most angry one was Lin Yichen, the prince of Dahan Kingdom. Lin Yichen went directly to the palace, and put this matter on the level of diplomatic relations between the two countries in the early court, forcing the emperor to agree that he would never shield anyone. Thinking about it, the ministers naturally knew what it meant, and looking at the eldest prince who has not yet arrived, they knew that the emperor had no choice this time.Those who had been by the First Prince's side all the time felt that they were really on the wrong team, and some people felt deeply worthless for the First Prince. If it weren't for a concubine like Concubine Yao, the First Prince would not be so passive and hardworking.Master Yao was even more afraid. Assassinating the princess was a serious crime that would exterminate the family. I really don't know if my family can be saved.Master Yao thought about his only son, and secretly thought of a way.

The emperor expressed his position, and the ministers were naturally not to be outdone, and all of them wrote a letter that Concubine Yao Gui should be severely punished.Prime Minister Wang also changed his past gentle style and asked the emperor to give Princess Daixin justice.After all, to Prime Minister Wang, Daiyu was really the daughter of his best friend. As for why Daiyu was assassinated, he was like a mirror in his heart. Was it to pull the prince down?The prince is now not only his nephew, but also his son-in-law.What's more important is that Daiyu's status is special now. If something happens to Daiyu, the people of Dahan Kingdom who regard Daiyu as a guardian god will definitely not be happy, and if they don't pay attention, it will cause chaos in the world.

Prime Minister Wang spoke, and the rest of the princes and ministers also expressed their views. In short, they all demanded that Concubine Yao Gui be severely punished.The emperor had no choice but to agree.They sent someone to find the eldest prince and come back.The eldest prince was at Xue Baochai's place at this time, and he had already given Xue Baochai a new identity, that is, the daughter of a fifth-rank official in his camp.It's just that he didn't want Xue Baochai to live in that man's house, so he put Xue Baochai in another courtyard.Yesterday the prince got married, the eldest prince forced himself to smile all day, and at night he went to Xue Baochai's place. The prince's confidant came to report: Concubine Yao had assassinated Princess Daixin, and now she has been ordered by the emperor to be imprisoned in the dungeon.

The eldest prince was anxious and angry when he heard the news, after all he had a deep affection for Concubine Yao, and when he was about to enter the palace to rescue Concubine Yao, Xue Baochai hurriedly stopped him and said: "Master, this matter needs to be remembered long ago. "

The eldest prince wanted to break free, but Xue Baochai was quite strong, so the eldest prince calmed down during this time. The eldest prince sighed and said, "Chaier, you are right, I can't enter the palace like this." Xue Baochai said: " Now that things have become like this, the eldest prince entered the palace just to beg the emperor to let the imperial concubine go, but because of the queen's love for Lin Daiyu, with such an opportunity, she would definitely put the imperial concubine to death. If you want the imperial concubine to survive, you can only force the palace, and become the emperor yourself, so that you can trample the empress and others under your feet, save the imperial concubine, and gain the supreme position."

The eldest prince was shocked when he heard the words, he didn't expect Xue Baochai to come up with such an idea, so he said: "I also want to become the emperor, but now I don't have enough manpower, even if I force the palace, the possibility of success is very small."

Xue Baochai said: "Could it be that master is willing to lose the imperial concubine like this, willing to live in the hatred of losing his mother like this? Willing to be suppressed by the queen and her children for the rest of his life? Then Lin Daiyu is just a person with a different surname, and the status of the imperial concubine is so honorable." Even if you kill Lin Daiyu, you shouldn't pay for it. What's more, Lin Daiyu is still fine. The one who died was just a concubine who fell out of favor. The queen did this just to seize the opportunity to suppress the noble concubine and the master. If the master No matter how they behave, they can only swallow their anger for the rest of their lives."

What Xue Baochai said was that the blood of the eldest prince was swollen, and he wished he could go directly to the palace and tear the empress and the prince into pieces. It was just another reality that quickly woke him up, and he only said to Xue Baochai: "It's just that there are not enough people now. How can it be successful?"

Xue Baochai smiled and said: "Master, what do you think this is?" Then he scooped out a piece of jade pendant, the eldest prince looked at it, but was surprised and then overjoyed, he just scooped up the jade pendant and said: "This, this is a military talisman?" Xue Baochai said with a smile: "This is the soldier talisman of the [-] troops in the Western Camp. It's as good as a fake."

The eldest prince said happily, "How did Chai get this?" Xue Baochai said, "Of course I got it from Lord Zhongshun. That day he brought a soldier talisman to show off to me, and Chai wrote down the appearance of the soldier talisman. So I asked someone to carve the general shape, but the details were made by Chai'er herself. When he came, Chai'er replaced the real soldier talisman while he was fast asleep."

The eldest prince hugged Xue Baochai and said: "My good chai, you are really my lucky star. Don't worry, when I succeed, I will make you a queen." The two discussed the details of forcing the palace, and the eldest prince contacted all his confidantes, making preparations for entering the palace at night.

The First Prince brought two more guards, and ran directly to the West Camp besides the capital.There are four battalions in the capital of Dahan, east, west, north, south, each with 10 people. The military power is in the hands of King Beijing, Prince Dongping, Prince Xining, and Prince Zhongshun. Nan'an Palace also has military power, but it is only on the border.The four camps are each one day away from the capital, which is also a rule set by the emperor to better protect his own safety.

When the First Prince arrived in the West Camp, he sent his confidantes to guard the main entrances and exits, so that the news could not be passed on. Some of them went to meet the general guarding the camp in person and explained his intentions to him. This person was originally a confidant of the loyal and obedient prince, so he naturally knew the prince. He was not surprised at all, and only said to the eldest prince, "Don't worry, the eldest prince, we will definitely wish you a helping hand." The eldest prince said: "If If it succeeds, the uncle and the prince will definitely not treat General Chen badly, so don't worry. "The general who said this was even more happy and excited, and he scooped up 120 points of energy to prepare for this matter.

After the end of the day, the general Zhang ordered everyone to have dinner, and set off for the capital as soon as possible after dinner. General Zhang was full of ambitions and hoped that he would have a successful career in the future, and he would become a prime minister.The army galloped all the way, and at night, they arrived at the west gate of Jinling.

At this time, there was a curfew, and the gate of the city was closed. The guards guarding the city saw a large number of soldiers and horses coming, and hurriedly beat drums to warn them, but their hands had not yet fallen, and he had already arrived.
