dream of red mansion

"What's going on outside? It's been noisy since last night, and we can't figure it out!"

"It's terrible!" Jia Lian originally wanted to say this, but was delayed by everyone's questions, and now he couldn't help it anymore: "I have never seen such a chaotic scene when I grow up. I heard that it was an assassin last night. , Later I heard that it was a rebellion by the Imperial Army. The assassins and those who caught the assassins had not yet been sorted out, and the rebels and the rebels fought on both sides. Others could not tell which side was the assassins and which was the rebels. Where is the anti-rebellion...

There was confusion in the middle of the night, and it was unknown how many people were killed or injured. "

"how so……"

Jiamu murmured while sticking to her crutches.

Mrs. Wang asked: "How did it calm down later, and why is it so chaotic outside?"

Jia Lian said: "The shouts of killing stopped at dawn. We don't know the details. It's just that the assassins went after the Supreme Emperor, and even His Majesty was injured in order to protect the Supreme Emperor.

It was also heard that the rebel was Wang Shanglin, the leader of the Forbidden Army, who died on the spot.

Later, people from the Jinyi Army came out to guard the princes and ministers, and they followed Shengjia back to Beijing.If the old man hadn't broken his leg, we would have been locked up like them and not allowed to come back..."

Jia Lian was also obviously frightened, what he said was out of order and logic, and he couldn't explain things clearly.

Mrs. Wang was still about to ask, but Mother Jia interrupted: "Okay, since you are all back, we have nothing to do with the outside affairs anyway, you go and take care of your father, let him rest at home, don't go out! "

Jia Lian was still thinking about it, but seeing that Jia's mother didn't want to listen any more, she had to give up.Say "yes" and go to the east courtyard.

Aunt Xue was the best at reading words and expressions. Seeing Mother Jia's gloomy face, she also left and went back.

In the end, only Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan and Wang Xifeng were left in the hall.Wang Xifeng boldly asked: "Why didn't the old ancestor let Lian Er finish talking?"

Jia Mu reprimanded: "What do you children know? Such a big thing has happened. How can you benefit from getting a little bit of it? You just pretend that you don't know anything and don't inquire about it. You are staying at home these few days. Who are you?" They are not allowed to see each other at the door, it is only after An Anfen gets through this."

All three of Mrs. Wang nodded in response.

......

After a night of galloping, they did not take a rest until after dawn, ate some dry food, and fed some water to the horses by the way.

"Are you okay?" Jia Qing frowned at Tana.This woman, even though she was injured, insisted on following her to the border.

But in order to find Wang Ziteng to discuss countermeasures as soon as possible, he couldn't stop halfway.

"I am fine."

"Otherwise, I will leave a team to escort you, and you don't have to go with us, in case the wound bursts..."

Jia Qing originally meant well, but Tana didn't appreciate it.

"Why are you such a mother-in-law? You told me I'm fine! Our children on the grassland are not as delicate as you.

If you can get rid of me, just go, but don't say that I'm a drag on you. "

Such ignorant words blocked Jia Qing's sympathy, so don't turn around and ignore her.

At this time, besides Zhao Sheng, Wang Jiang, Ma Jun and Mei Jian, they also had dozens of elite Jinyi Army Tiqi.

Wang Shun didn't come.Originally, he planned to return to Beijing in a month or so at most, but now that something like this happened, he couldn't worry about his family.

Wang Shun was his servant for many years, and after returning to the mansion, he could more or less take care of one or two families.

"Let's go!"

Jia Qing stood up and got on his horse. A moment later, only a cloud of dust was left on the spot, and dozens of riders and horses had already disappeared.

......

For two days in a row, people in the capital were in panic.

In the mansion of He Shanbao in Xicheng, more than a dozen mainstays of the imperial court gathered here, discussing something with righteous indignation.

"Master Shoufu, you must be the master for us, but in just two days, several companies have been copied. Lord Fei and Lord Yu have already been sent to death row by that goddamn man. If this continues, the court will It's completely messed up..."

"Yes, he is taking the opportunity to force the palace to seize power. Such a disobedient and unfilial person sits on the dragon's head majesticly. Could it be that the sky wants to destroy me?"

He Shanbao sat upright on the main seat, watching the people present and complaining calmly.

"Then according to the wishes of the adults, what should we do?"

Hearing He Shanbao's words, everyone became quiet all of a sudden.

They came to He Shanbao's place because of uneasiness.He Shanbao was a veteran of the two dynasties, and he was deeply trusted by the Supreme Emperor, and he even gave him a gold medal for avoiding death. At this time, He Shanbao is their backbone.

"We want to meet the Supreme Emperor!" Suddenly someone said.

Another person immediately sneered and said: "The news has long been passed down from the palace, saying that the Supreme Emperor was frightened in the paddock and needs to recuperate. Foreign officials are not allowed to visit. How can we see it?"

"He's under house arrest!"

"So what if it's under house arrest? Now that Wang Shanglin is dead, the Forbidden Army and the Beijing Camp are under his single-handed control, and there are Jinyi Army outside. What can we do? If there is any change, we will end up like Master Fei and the others."

Everyone cried out: "Disobedient and unfilial...!"

"Oh no......"

Suddenly the servants of the He Mansion came in and reported: "My lord, it is said outside that Prince Xun's Mansion is surrounded by the Imperial Army and the Jinyi Army!"

He Shanbao's forced face could no longer remain calm, he got up and shouted, "What's the reason?"

"Wang Shanglin's rebellion is said to be instigated by Prince Xun!"

Everyone was shocked.Wang Tan, the General Secretary, shouted angrily: "Could it be that he wants to kill each other?"

Prince Xun is the youngest son of the Taishang Emperor and the younger brother of Emperor Zhengqing, born of the current Empress Dowager.

It is no exaggeration to say that no matter who the name of plotting rebellion is placed on, they would never have imagined that they would be placed on the head of Prince Xun!

"Master Shoufu, if you don't care at this time, Da Chu will be finished...!" Wang Tan said sadly, and then knelt down in the hall to ask He Shanbao to come forward.

He Shanbao sat back dejectedly, and said with a gloomy expression: "This is a matter for the royal family, I can't control it..."

He has tried to enter the palace several times, but was turned away every time.

At this time, there are soldiers and horses everywhere in the capital, what can he do as a civil servant?Could it be that he commanded more than 100 of his servants to forcefully break into the palace?

Perhaps seeing He Shanbao's helplessness, someone suddenly suggested: "Let's ask the Queen Mother to come forward and stop this perverse tyranny!"

"Yes, please come forward, the Queen Mother!" Wang Tan's eyes lit up when he heard this, he immediately got up, bowed casually to He Shanbao, then turned and went out.The people behind looked at He Shanbao's expression and followed suit.

After the crowd dispersed, He Yinde, He Shanbao's son, came out from the back hall and asked, "Father, do you think their move will be effective?"

He Shanbao shook his head, his already old face became even more sad, he said: "Don't meddle in the outside affairs, in the future, our He family will have to rely on you..."
