Qing Ping Le · Double Songs

The afterglow melted into the night, and the darkened Nanyang City was completely different from the daytime. The bright moon was in the sky, and the bright moon was like frost falling on the tiles.The common people don't know the turbulence in the court, and they tell them that they are busy day after day. Although the moon is rounder tonight than last night, it's not all about themselves.

Rong Che and Bai Qingtong walked through the night, their movements were extremely fast and fleeting, Wuhuayuan was quietly located in the north corner of Changning Palace as usual, but Xia Feng and Dongge stayed outside the courtyard tonight, and the startling rain kept standing Roof view.Rong Che descended from the sky and entered the hospital. His eyes glanced at the three of them with serious expressions, so he knew that something important had happened. Bai Qingtong sent him outside the door and did not go in.

Pushing open the door and entering, she was surprised that Rong Ling was also here. Seeing that she was not wearing a palace dress but a narrow-sleeved riding outfit, she knew that she was going over the wall to enter the hospital just like her to deceive others.She saluted, "Rong Che pays respects to Miss Huang."

Rong Ling's words were very light, but her mind was heavy, "Forget it." She put a few notes on the case, and said, "Fortunately, I am in charge of the official department, here are some transfer notes from the Ministry of War, take a look Then you will know why I am looking for you in such a hurry."

Rong Che glanced at Rong Cheng and saw her expressing her relief with her eyes, and then picked up the paperwork on the case. In the past six months, the Ministry of War has replaced the commanders of the garrison in Yuzhou, Yunzhou, and Wucheng respectively, and these three places are south of the Yangtze River. From Xinjiang to the place where Huluo Paddock must pass, everything is logical, and it is exactly as she expected today. King Jingyuan and Wei Guogong had the idea of ​​Huluo Paddock from the very beginning. She put down the booklet and let Rong Ling said coldly.

"Fortunately, I have the energy to clean up the official department, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered Uncle Wang's schemes." She raised her brows lightly and her eyes regained vigor, "The hunting is imminent, and it looks like Uncle Wang is coming soon."

Rong Cheng said, "According to the time and hunting, there is still half a month left."

Rong Che took the map and unfolded it, and she said, "Yecheng is only fifty miles away from the Huluo Paddock, and Xu Jiu's [-] imperial troops just happened to block the pass from Nanyang City to the Huluo Paddock. more profound."

"Now that Nanyang City is under siege from all sides, even if His Majesty does not go to Huluo Paddock, Uncle Wang's rebel army is close at hand." She continued, "It's a coincidence that Gu Chengfeng was not in time after I was transferred back to the capital. Arrangement, now I just sent Wucheng to guard this checkpoint. Although there are [-] forbidden troops in Nanyang City, according to the current situation, Yuzhou and Yunzhou and Wu and Yecheng are already under the command of the rebels. When Gu Chengfeng goes Wu Cheng checked and reported that the rebel army has already approached the city, so there is no time to dispatch troops."

"Rong Yeli said that day that the father went to Hukou Pass, and now he also understands that Hukou Pass is east of the defense line, and it happened to break out of camp from here and head north all the way to Huluo Paddock." She walked on the map with her fingertips, leisurely. Xu Dao, "However, it is necessary to cross the river from Yunzhou to Wucheng and then to Huluo Paddock. Counting the marching distance, they will have to wait until the end of this month to arrive."

Rong Ling looked up at her and asked, "What should I do in half a month? The Duke was able to premeditate an assassination case more than ten years ago, and now he is plotting to rebel. This person will cause endless troubles, but if he does not move There is still nothing to do with him.”

"I thought that if we could break through this predicament one by one, we would be able to solve it." It was Rong Cheng who answered, and she said, "The Duke and Uncle Wang have the idea of ​​coordinating internally and externally, so the news exchange must be close. Once the news is cut off, the king will Uncle can't figure out what's going on in the capital, and he will definitely be suspicious and hesitate to march forward."

"Cousin, what do you mean is to take down Wei Guogong in the capital first, and then chase after the father who is halfway?"

Rong Ling said, "Duke Wei is cautious and careful to prosecute him as a crime. I'm afraid he won't be able to produce sufficient evidence. If he arrests King Jingyuan first, he is afraid that he will start a riot in western Xinjiang. Nanliang will definitely take advantage of the vacancy, and Great Xia is now troubled both internally and externally."

"If Wei Guogong opposes everything first, it will be a matter of course." Rong Cheng said again, "I will go out and order Xia Feng and Jing Yu to do things first, Ache, you and Huang Jie will discuss first." Rong Cheng walked out after speaking, maybe something urgent She was out of breath after taking a few quick steps.

Rong Ling cast doubtful eyes on Rong Che, although she shouldn't appreciate the tacit understanding between the two of them at such an urgent moment, but she was indescribably depressed in her heart, her eyes dimmed a bit when she looked at Rong Che .

Although Rong Che could see the sourness in her eyes, he still did not show his expression, and said, "I guess my cousin will let Xia Feng and Jing Yu closely monitor the Duke's mansion and Hu Chengliang's mansion when the incident happened suddenly. Keep an eye on the gates of the four cities and cut off all news exchanges between Uncle Wang and the capital, as if the news is blocked, both sides will be suspicious and at a loss."

Rong Ling's slender fingertips tapped on the edge of the case, and she said, "Now we have the upper hand. The Duke and King Jingyuan think they are sure of victory, but they don't know that we have already guessed their plan." She paused He also said, "If there is Pei Qingyang next to the empress who reports back, he is afraid that the news will leak, and he can't make trouble until he finds out where King Jingyuan's army is marching. How can he force the Duke to rebel first?" Rong Ling was at a loss.

"Sister Huang, don't be in a hurry, we can discuss it after my cousin comes back."

Rong Ling raised her brows and glanced at her, half annoyed and half smiling, "Every time you are only willing to say what's on your mind when Ah Cheng is around, why can't you say it in front of me?"

"Rong Che didn't dare, it's because Miss Huang was thinking too much."

"Although you have made great contributions to Uncle Wang's rebellion this time, you can't guarantee that someone with a heart will tell the truth in front of the Queen Mother. It is easy to hide the spear in the open and it is difficult to prevent the arrow in the dark. You must be more careful in the future."

"Rong Che knows, Sister Lao is worried." For a moment, the two of them were silent, but they were full of thoughts.

Rong Cheng walked back into the room and saw that both of them were silent, so he smiled and said, "Ah Che, the news about the Jingyuan Palace may require you to do it yourself." She asked again, "Thinking about how to force the Duke to do it first? "

"What does my cousin think?"

"Ah Che, did you also think of Rong Yeli?" Seeing a flash in her eyes, Rong Cheng knew that Rong Yeli was being plotted by both of them at the same time, and then smiled, "Since we have planned it long ago, why are you still asking Miss Huang to be anxious?"

Rong Che said calmly, "I just want to hear what my cousin has to say."

Rong Ling raised her eyebrows and her complexion was not good. She pretended to reprimand, "What kind of charades are you two playing with me? You are still in the mood to bicker at this time."

Rong Cheng hurriedly said, "Sister Huang, don't be angry."

Rong Che also said, "It's not that you don't tell Miss Huang, it's just that it's hard to be sure that nothing will go wrong."

Rong Ling murmured, "Come out and listen."

Rong Che looked at Rong Cheng with indifferent eyes, and Rong Cheng looked back with a smile, "All ears." Seeing this scene, Rong Ling didn't know what riddles the two of them were playing.

Rong Che eloquently said, "The Duke will be suspicious if my cousin cuts off the news from the capital, but if he wants to take the risk, he needs to think of another way." She said calmly, "I'm most afraid that he will just lie dormant and wait for an opportunity. The opportunity was lost."

"Ah Che, these imperial sisters know what's in their hearts, so hurry up and get down to business."

"Recently, Rong Yeli has repeatedly picked quarrels and troubles to trouble me. I think I can use them. I can forge the secret letters between my father and me, and then pretend to report this matter to His Majesty in secret. With his temperament, I will definitely do it." In a panic, go to the Duke's Mansion or find Hu Chengliang to tell me about my leak, and it will be in our interest for these two no matter who he finds."

Rong Ling asked, "I'm afraid this will make the Duke dormant."

"Then we need to make a big fuss about Hu Chengliang. Hu Chengliang is in charge of the military department's military secrets. Naturally, it is hard to escape the eyes and ears. The emperor can use a few notes from the official department to give the illusion that King Jingyuan was defeated and besieged Wucheng. The county guards and garrison commanders of Yuzhou and Yunzhou pretended to discuss with the Ministry of War to allocate troops to the western and southern frontiers."

"Then Gu Chengfeng's trip to Wucheng doesn't need to be concealed. Tomorrow, he has to make a big splash." Rong Ling said again, "This is still not enough to make the Duke rebel."

"The final key lies in Xu Jiu. As long as An and Lu make Xu Jiu think that His Majesty wants to kill Wei Guogong, he will definitely go to report the letter. At this moment of life and death, it is difficult to guarantee that the Duke of Wei will not put all his eggs in one basket. It is better to strike first."

"As long as Wei Guogong thinks that no matter whether he rebels or not, he will not escape death, then he must be lucky enough to fight his way out, and the victory will be seen immediately. If it were the other way around, I would also do this desperate fight."

Only then did Rong Cheng laugh and said, "That's exactly what I mean. If there is no accident, the Duke of the Kingdom will rebel against you within three days."

"You can give it a try." Rong Ling said again, "It's just that if Xu Jiu's [-] forbidden troops really turn against each other, I'm afraid the capital will be in chaos."

"Sister Huang, don't worry, you can't fight back with An and Lu in Xu Jiu. As long as you successfully take Wei Guogong Yecheng, you will be defeated." Rong Che paused, and then said slowly, "Sister Huang, it's getting late, it's not appropriate to be here Stay for a long time."

The sound outside the house was silent, and Night Breeze occasionally whispered a few words, but he didn't dare to make mistakes.The faint sound of clappers came in bit by bit. After a little calculation, she had been out of the palace for two hours. Although she got the news from Eunuch An earlier that Pei Qingyang had come to accompany her in the palace, she couldn't just go out and play for a long time without any scruples.

Rong Cheng pushed the door open and called out, "Xia Feng, startled rain, you two send the imperial sister back." Rong Cheng and Rong Che accompanied Rong Ling down the steps, and watched Rong Ling in the courtyard until it was difficult to distinguish her figure.

After returning to the room, Rong Cheng said with a smile, "Ache, you deliberately missed someone in front of Huang Jie." Her eyes were as bright as stars, "If you don't tell Huang Jie, even Xu Jiu It can't be said that Wei Guogong still has three thousand soldiers in the government, and Wei Changdong's black feather team is brave and good at fighting."

"Three thousand is nothing to be afraid of." Rong Che's eyes were indifferent but very calm, "My cousin thinks that if Wei Changdong turns against us, we have a slight chance of winning."

Rong Cheng smiled and said, "Seventy percent. As long as the Duke moves recklessly, no matter whether Gu Chengfeng sends the news back to Wucheng or not, the imperial sister will firmly insist that King Jingyuan is stationed here. You use the seal of the palace to send King Jingyuan first for the imperial sister. The rebellion is confirmed." She looked into Rong Che's eyes, "When the time comes, you will ask His Majesty to go to fight to quell the chaos on behalf of Huangjie, and make military achievements in winning this battle for Huangjie."

"Cousin intends to let Huang Jie hold the military power at this time?"

"Exactly." Rong Cheng looked serious, with a low and deep voice, "I don't plan to wait any longer at this time. His Majesty favors Pei Qingyang's prosperity, and in time there is no guarantee that he will not be greedy and delusional to follow in the footsteps of Uncle Wang."

Rong Che said calmly, "Sister's words are reasonable. Sister Huang was worried that Pei Qingyang would leak the news because someone close to the Duke, but I thought he had already joined His Majesty's family. Otherwise, how could His Majesty be so gracious and favored by His Majesty's suspicion?"

"Emperor Sister and Your Majesty, after all, blood is thicker than water, and it's human nature not to want to think of the worst. It's just that Pei Qingyang is a bit handsome and coaxed His Majesty to love him, and now he is at the top of the court, and our Majesty." Her words fell to the ground. It is rare to say so bluntly, but the two of them have already tacitly agreed.

"Cousin, do you remember that I mentioned that the Duke of the State is a person close to the first prince. At that time, the cousin was reluctant to ask in order to avoid any side effects. Now I bring up the old story again. The case of the Duke of the State as the first prince has reached the point of conspiracy and rebellion. People are suspicious."

"Thinking about it now, Uncle Wang also participated in the quelling of the chaos back then." Rong Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Father also quelled the chaos, he must have been aware of it a long time ago but he refused to tell the truth." She pondered for a while After a while, he said again, "Ah Che, the case of the former crown prince will definitely come to light on the day the Duke made trouble, so don't think too much about it."

"Cousin, since I returned to Beijing, many things have flashed before my eyes like a horse on a horse. I am afraid that you, me and Huang Jie will have a lot to do with this matter."

"Ah Che, the matter has come to this point, only the camera moves. I believe that you, me and the imperial sister will be able to turn the danger into a blessing." Rong Chengfu smiled again, "If you come in through the main entrance, I will invite you to stay." It's a pity that you climbed over the wall and entered the hospital." Rong Che remembered that his eyebrows bulged that night when he was in bed with Rong Cheng, and Rong Cheng happened to see him, and he was very dissatisfied and malicious, "It's so big to be in the same bed with me. What should you do if you share the bed with Huang Jie from now on?"

Although Rong Che remained silent, his expression remained the same, but his heart fluctuated because of her words. This beautiful picture jumped into her mind without her consent, which made her extremely embarrassed and annoyed, but she still spoke calmly, "Cousin Don't be disrespectful to Miss Huang."

After all, Rong Cheng and Rong Che grew up, and although they haven't seen each other for many years, they still know each other well. She looked at Rong Che with burning eyes, "You are asking for trouble in the end." She looked away , Said sternly, "Sister Huang must have told you to be careful in the future. If Uncle Wang's rebellion is confirmed, even if you are someone close to His Majesty, you will not be able to escape criticism from someone with a heart, and His Majesty will ignore you in the long run."

"Ah Che knows, thank you cousin for reminding me."

"Ache, be careful when you go back."

"Cousin, Ah Che will take my leave first."

Rong Che pushed the door and went out a few times before hiding in the night, Rong Cheng stood on the platform and looked at the light shadow in the courtyard in amazement.The apricot tree is as lush as a cloud covering the stream of stars, and Bai Qingtong stands tall and straight holding a long moon under the tree, surrounded by indistinguishable hibiscus flowers, only the dark fragrance makes people remember its beauty.

Rong Cheng leisurely opened his mouth with a slight smile, "I thought you had already returned to Wuxiangyuan."

Bai Qingtong returned to the Wuxiangyuan, but after Xia Feng and Jingyu sent the eldest princess away, she couldn't calm down and meditate. She knew she was worried about Rong Cheng, so she went back to the Wuxiangyuan, silently Staying in the courtyard, she knew that Changning Palace was heavily guarded, even if Xia Feng and Jingyu were not around, it would be difficult to get in, but she no longer wanted to think about the reason and just pretended not to know.

Bai Qingtong's voice was soft and gently drifted into her ears, "I should protect you when they're not here."

Rong Cheng's eyebrows and eyes were curved, even though the night was dark, they were brilliant and dazzling, "Qingtong, don't worry, they will be back soon, and you should go to bed early when it is night."

Bai Qingtong stubbornly shook her head and remained unmoved, Rong Cheng stood on the platform and just looked at her like this, the night became more and more dense, even at such a distance, her face was blurred and it was difficult to see clearly.But Bai Qingtong still saw those star-like eyes shining brightly in the night, she thought they were the guidance in the night walk.
