ordinary people's house

Liao Chongzhang, the Marquis of Deqing, was the opposite of Zhu, the commander-in-chief of the Three Thousand Battalions.

Xiao Yunlang sat next to Lin Yulan, holding hands under the table, Xiao Yunlang seemed to have heard Ah Yu cry, he turned sideways to listen carefully, but felt no.

Lin Yuming said: "Second brother, you probably won't listen to my advice. Your father-in-law is Uncle Jin Jiang, and your eldest brother-in-law is Xiao Mulang. It's a pity that Xiao He will succeed and lose. This time, the Xiao family can't keep it. Tsk tsk, pass Today, the Xiao family and the Yuan family will all be wiped out."

Xiao Yunlang and Lin Yulan didn't show much surprise, Lin Yuming became angry all of a sudden, he snorted coldly and said, "Why, you don't believe me?" He looked at Xiao Yunlang contemptuously, "Everyone in the world calls Xiao Su General Xiao, but this General Xiao has not been on the battlefield for many years, except for a few soldiers in this three-acre area of ​​the capital. What makes him famous all over the world is because he is the emperor's master. Everyone gave him some face."

Xiao Yunlang said calmly: "My father has taught the emperor since he was young. He has never left the capital for many years, and the capital has been peaceful and peaceful for many years. At the beginning, when King Qi made a slight move, my father noticed and suppressed him. The generals who can recruit and fight well in the world come from me. There are countless members of the Xiao family, and the younger generation are all my father's disciples, although my father did not have the feats of my grandfather, nor did he have the 'great general' that Bai Dan said."

Lin Yuming was irritated by his calmness. What he wanted to see was the panic and uneasiness of the couple. He wanted to see them beg him urgently, asking what he should do to find a way out.And Lin Yuming also thought about it, he was going to slowly talk about the hardships he suffered in the frontier, how he was favored by Princess Qin, and how he started to work for Princess Qin.

Lin Yulan thought deeply: "Could it be that many people who were pardoned and returned to Beijing were bought by Princess Qin?"

Lin Yuming gave him a hard look, and said with disdain: "Even if we come back to Beijing, our lives are not as good as ordinary people's. In this case, we have to find another way, Yulan, you probably haven't thought about it. , if King Qi ascended the throne back then, how prosperous our Lin family would be now."

"King Qi did not ascend the throne, and the Lin family was ruined."

Lin Yuming slapped the table, blushing with excitement, spitting all over the place, "I can do what my elder brother failed to do!"

Palace.

Yuan Ruheng was sitting by the pool, throwing crumbs of steamed buns into the water one after another, and Yuechan, who was standing by the side, said softly: "My queen, for the sake of the little prince, don't worry too much, the most important thing is to take care of your body... ..."

Yuan Ruheng yawned, and said, "Who said I'm worried."

"Then you..."

Yuan Ruheng said indifferently: "The emperor and Cousin Mu Lang have been planning inside and outside the capital for many years. It would be a joke if the capital was breached once. It just so happens that I am tired from sitting. You can go with me to see Concubine Mu."

Yue Chan said in astonishment: "But the Queen, the Three Palaces of the Queen have already been surrounded by people sent by the emperor."

"What's the big deal, eh? Doctor Qiu and Doctor Feng?"

"The two imperial physicians are waiting at the imperial hospital."

"Tell them all to follow."

Yuechan respectfully said: "Your servant obeys."

When the group came to the Housan Palace, Yuan Ruheng said: "Open the door, I am going to see Concubine Mu." The guards hesitated, Yuan Ruheng glanced over coldly, and the guards hurriedly opened the door.Now that Concubine Mu is dying, the two imperial doctors said that she has not many days to live, which is a bit embarrassing. From the time of the first emperor to the first three years of the emperor's enthronement, Concubine Mu always walked sideways in the palace. Knowing that once she was poisoned, the people around her would also be controlled, so now she can only wait for death in the side hall in desolation.

After Yuan Ruheng entered, Concubine Mu opened her eyes and looked at the bed curtain, muttering something in her mouth. Yuan Ruheng listened carefully, only to realize that what she said was: "Retribution, retribution..."

The palace man moved a chair, Yuan Ruheng sat down, and said: "Mu Taifei, you should be more aware of who hurt you."

Concubine Mu is now having difficulty even moving. A little palace maid helped her slightly sideways so that she could see Yuan Ruheng. Concubine Mu's voice was hoarse and she could barely make a human voice, "...I know...I know Not you."

"Well, it's indeed not Ben Gong. If Ben Gong wants to make a move, I will definitely give you a pleasure, Concubine Mu, and won't let anyone find out how you died."

Concubine Mu's eyes barely moved. Her well-maintained hands had quickly withered, yellowed, and thinned in the past few days. She held the bed tightly with one hand, and said each word: "It's that bowl of bird's nest...Tian Taifei !"

Yuan Ruheng didn't feel too surprised. Concubine Mu slowly said: "It's all retribution, retribution... back then we...we fought endlessly for the position of queen, I thought I had a good death..."

Yuan Ruheng frowned, and waved his hand to tell the palace servants and imperial physicians to go down. He leaned next to Concubine Mu, and after listening to her, Yuan Ruheng straightened up and said, "Give Concubine Mu a good time."

"……Yes."

It's a pity, it's a pity, Yuan Ruheng thought indifferently, the emperor was already planning to make the sixth younger brother the king of Liao, and once said that he was out of sight and out of mind, and asked him to take Mu Taifei to the fiefdom, but Mu Taifei fell into such a situation. Not to mention the fate, it also exposed such a secret that has been suppressed in the hearts of the concubines for many years.

Empress Liu really didn't die suddenly, but it's a pity that the prince Zhu Xian was too young at that time, he didn't have so much insight, he didn't see through the cause of his mother's death, and the late emperor deliberately concealed it, Zhu Xian has forgotten his mother's death for so many years Passed away.

There is no need to let the emperor know about this, Yuan Ruheng suddenly stopped, he turned around and glanced at the palace where Concubine Mu lived, and thought, don't let the emperor know, I will handle it for him.

Yuan Ruheng didn't know whether it was because of intuition or something else. After he was assassinated, the first thing he arranged was to treat Concubine Yu and Concubine Tian to death and not allow them to have any contact with the outside world.Later Yuan Ruheng knew that Liao Chongzhang had rebelled, so he sent more people to watch over Concubine Yu, but the Seventh Prince had long since disappeared. Yuan Ruheng and Zhu Xian couldn't help guessing that he had already left the palace, and now he might be with himself Grandfather stays at the same place.

Princess Qin is from a famous family. After marrying Queen Qin, she always regarded herself as the future queen. He was too confident in King Qin, thinking that neither the crown prince nor the second prince could compare to him. In the end, King Qin got such a fate. King Qin was timid and could no longer think about the throne, but Princess Qin's heart was not dead. After Shen Mobai who assisted King Qi fled, the two quickly colluded together.

No matter how much Princess Qin longs for power, it is impossible for her to ascend the throne as an emperor by herself. When she was choosing allies for herself, she took a fancy to the cowardly Seventh Prince and the woman behind him, Princess Yu. The Liao family and the Zhu family are related by marriage. Zhu Xiang was a son of the clan who commanded the Three Thousand Battalions. These gangs made repeated calculations, but they never expected that the male queen, Yuan Ruheng, would soon have a child.

The queen has a son, which can reassure too many people. They can't wait for the queen to give birth to the little prince safely before doing anything.

Concubine Qin has raised soldiers for many years. She wanted to cooperate with Zhu et al. Unexpectedly, she met a strong enemy when she left Qinchuan. She had already confronted Xiao Dulang once. Xiao Dulang suffered heavy losses and she was also seriously injured. She really It never occurred to him that he would have the guts to come back to Qin Chuan.

While resisting the Xishan camp, Zhu Xiang continued to send people to lobby Wu Dinghou. He placed a lot of people in the fifth army camp. If Wu Dinghou was on his side, everyone would be happy. There are other ways to deal with it.

Xiao Su and his elder brother Yuan Shengyi led troops to guard the capital, while Xiao Mulang shot and killed the rebellious party in Beijing.

Zhu Xian waited in the Hall of Supreme Harmony with the courtiers who were not in the same mind. Zhu Xian asked someone to move chairs and told the courtiers to sit and wait. He also smiled and comforted the courtiers who refused to sit, saying: I don't know when the fight will last, I am worried that the adults will not be able to bear it, and I will ask the imperial dining room to prepare meals according to the tastes of the adults, and let us have a few more drinks."

There is no trace of people on Qingyun Road. At Zuo's house in Nanlui Lane, Mrs. Zuo asked the servants to close the door tightly. Brother Zuo was worried about how much money he would lose in the past few days. Mrs. Zuo said: "I am in charge, I am very scared. , I don’t know how long this capital city will be in chaos, I wonder if we can send someone to the Lin family to ask.”

Brother Zuo felt unhappy, and said impatiently, "What's your question?"

"Just ask what happened, who rebelled or who called from outside, and see when this chaos will stop."

Big brother Zuo hesitated, while sister-in-law Zuo stood up and said, "I'll ask, I'll go out from the small gate, it's only a few steps away, nothing serious will happen."

"Forget it, you stay, I'll go out and have a look."

Brother Zuo saw that there was no one around, so he straightened his clothes and went out, and knocked on the small door of the Lin family next door, but after a long time, no one came to ask. When he was about to go back helplessly, a servant opened the door. Taking a careful look outside, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's Mr. Zuo's family, please come in quickly."

"Thank you, how dare you ask Master Lin and Master Xiao?"

"You come with me."

"Hey."

Over there, Lin Yuming found that no matter what he said, the husband and wife were unmoved. He drank two cups of tea in one go, and said viciously, "It's over for you!"

Xiao Yunlang was about to be troubled by his words, but Lin Yulan said: "Second brother, I just want to ask, you are on the line with Princess Qin, does she have a task for you?"

Lin Yuming didn't know why he asked this, and said arrogantly: "Princess Qin has promised me that she will return the Lin family's mansion to me and make me the Marquis of Jingchuan."

Lin Yulan realized that Lin Yuming was just a cover, and that the rest of the prisoners who came to Beijing might be the real rebels. He glanced at Lin Yuming and asked, "Does the second sister-in-law and Zhaoru know?"
