Zhao Hanzhang comforted him in a low voice: "Auntie, I know in my heart that we will not lose."

Wang looked suspicious, "Really?"

"But your uncle is also a smart man. If you don't lose, how can he?"

Zhao Hanzhang could not tell her the benefits of poor information. He could only say: "I am smarter than my uncle. Of course, in my uncle's eyes, this is not a loss, but a win-win situation."

Unless history takes a big turn and Luoyang is safe, Zhao Zhongyu will suffer losses.

Zhao Hanzhang did not expect that the following history would indeed take a turn, but in another direction.

Zhao Hanzhang put the incense on it and looked back at Wang and others who looked tired. They said, "You go back and rest. I will keep vigil tonight."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly said: "Go back. My mother will be here to watch tonight. You have been here for three nights in a row."

Because the wedding was about to be prepared, although everything was kept simple during the hot Xiaoqi period, some preparations still had to be made, especially for the Fu family.

So Fu Tinghan stayed with Zhao Hanzhang for two nights and then went home.

"Auntie, you are not in good health. Go back and rest. If you are worried, ask Erlang to stay with me." After comforting Mrs. Wang, Zhao Hanzhang looked at the three sisters of the Zhao family aside, "Sisters and sisters, please go back and rest too. Come back tomorrow. .”

They were cousins, so they were filial piety. Zhao Dalang was the eldest grandson of the Zhao family, and Zhao Ji inherited Zhao Changyu's title, so he was filial piety.

The three sisters didn't refuse. They bowed and were about to leave. But before they moved, a loud banging sound suddenly came from outside, making them shrink back.

"Why does it sound like a war?"

"Who is trying to break into the palace again?"

In the past three years, they had heard this kind of sound frequently, and every time they heard it, it was a coup. Thinking that their great-uncle was no longer here, the three of them turned pale instantly.

Zhao Hanzhang also pricked up her ears to listen. She clearly heard the shouts of killing coming from far and near. Her expression changed, she walked out of the mourning hall and called Uncle Cheng: "Restrain the servants in the family and go pick up my uncle and uncle." Come here and guard the mourning hall."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Zhongyu and Zhao Ji also hurried over, "Close the door tightly. There are five people in one door. If anything unusual happens, come and report it immediately."

Zhao Zhongyu was still calm and ordered, "Call all the guards in the mansion. From now on, we will divide into three teams to patrol the mansion. Keep an eye on the servants and servants in the mansion. They are not allowed to run around. Anyone who violates the rules will be beaten to death."

Zhao Hanzhang stopped and waited for his instructions.

After he made arrangements, he stepped forward and said, "Uncle, what happened outside?"

Zhao Zhongyu frowned and said, "I've asked people to go out to inquire. You guys should stay in the house first and don't go out."

Zhao Hanzhang thought for a while and then said: "Mr. Ji is well-informed. He may know. Uncle, it is better to send someone to pick up Mr. Ji."

"There is chaos outside, and it is safest to stay in the house at this time," Zhao Zhongyu said, "We will talk about it after this period of chaos has passed."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and felt that safety was the most important thing at this time.

But she was inevitably anxious. She looked back at the history she knew. Although there was chaos outside Luoyang City during this period, the city should still be somewhat stable. At least in the first two years when King Donghai took control of the government, no major battles occurred in Luoyang.

but……

After all, that is history recorded by later generations more than 1000 years ago. There are always gaps in historical data, so we cannot believe everything.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled bitterly. Even if the historical materials were complete and the records were detailed, she still had to read them all and remember them all.

So it was still necessary to collect the current information. Zhao Hanzhang turned to look at the slowly darkening sky. He only wondered whether the new emperor was safe in the current chaos. If something happened to him, Luoyang would be in chaos immediately.

Everyone in the Zhao family was panic-stricken and stayed in the mourning hall all night listening to what was going on outside.

Zhao Hanzhang's hearing was better than anyone else's. Especially when she closed her eyes, she could clearly hear the sound of armor clashing as soldiers walked on the street. Unfortunately, no one spoke, and the information she could extract was limited.

However, the passing soldiers did not knock on the doors of the Zhao family and the Jia family, and seemed to ignore them.

Zhao Hanzhang opened his eyes slightly, lowered his eyes and thought. It seemed that the chaos started from within, and the King of Donghai had the situation under control. The other party seemed to be convinced that they and his family were not involved.

She tapped her knee. Although she didn't know what it was, it didn't seem to be a big problem.

Sure enough, the chaos was put down the next day. The servants sent by the Zhao family to inquire about the news came back and reported: "...the soldiers guarding the intersection have all retreated. Only the main street and the entrance to the imperial city have not been cleaned. Clean blood, the city gates on all sides are closed, and no one is allowed to go out for the time being."

Zhao Ji quickly asked, "What happened?"

"I can't ask. Those soldiers are very fierce. I don't dare to stay for a long time."

Zhao Zhongyu thought for a moment and then said: "Get the car ready, I'll go out and ask."

The servants left in response, and as soon as they went out, they met Ji Yuan who was coming in a hurry.

Zhao Zhongyu's eyes lit up and he stepped forward to greet him, "Mr. Ji, you came just in time."

Zhao Hanzhang also took two steps forward slightly and looked at Ji Yuan with bright eyes.

Ji Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and calmed his breathing before saying: "General Gao Tao of the Right Guards attacked and assassinated the King of the East China Sea, and the chaos has been put down."

Zhao Hanzhang's brows jumped and he stepped forward and asked, "Did Gao Tao attack and assassinate the King of East China Sea, or was the King of East China Sea trying to capture Gao Tao?"

Zhao Ji: "Isn't this the same?"

Of course it is different, because in history, Gao Tao's assassination plan was exposed before it could be implemented, and he was captured and killed by the King of East China Sea.

Ji Yuan said: "Yesterday evening, King Donghai's carriage was ambushed just after leaving the imperial city. Gao Tao led his soldiers to attack and kill King Donghai. The plan failed and he escaped."

He paused and then lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the King of East China Sea was seriously injured."

Zhao Hanzhang swallowed and asked, "Is the news accurate?"

Ji Yuan: "The fact that King Donghai was seriously injured cannot be determined, but the assassination is true. He should have escaped from the city."

Zhao Hanzhang: ...That's really exciting.

History has really taken a turn.

A strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in her heart, and she suddenly raised her head to look at Ji Yuan, her eyes bright.

Ji Yuan was also looking at her, and nodded slightly when she looked over.

Zhao Hanzhang turned to Zhao Zhongyu and said, "Uncle, I want to send the coffin to the temple in advance. Our whole family can temporarily stay in the temple to perform a ritual ceremony for my grandfather."

Zhao Zhongyu came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "If you want to perform rituals, just invite the monks and Taoists to come to your home. Why go to the temple? Wait until the funeral is over before moving the coffin over."

He said: "I know what you are worried about, but if the city of Luoyang is not safe, the outside of the city will only be even more unsafe. And now that the chaos has subsided, I am afraid that he deliberately let out the news about King Donghai's serious injury. He This is because I want to catch all those who have alienated intentions."

"Since my uncle knew, why didn't he avoid this storm?"

"But this has nothing to do with us. We will not rebel against him, the King of East China Sea. We will just sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers."
