Shu Blossoms

Chapter 211 Trapped in the city
The carriage drove into the small courtyard, Mo Qi was already waiting in the courtyard, Zheng Wei also saw Master and Uncle Amu.

"Why are you together?" Zheng Wei was a little surprised.

"Go into the room and talk slowly!" Zhao Mingzhi nodded.

Zheng Wei looked back at Tuoba Yu who was in the carriage, he still didn't get out of the news of Emperor Wei's death.

Mo Qi wanted to help him get out of the car, but he ignored him, and Mo Qi stomped his feet in a hurry.

Cui Yan walked to the carriage and said softly: "Your Highness, you should cheer up at this time and protect the great Wei foundation for the late emperor."

Tuoba Yu remained motionless, as if he didn't hear what everyone said.

Zheng Wei couldn't see it, and strode to the front of the car, looked at him and said coldly: "Tuoba Yu, don't you want to know what's going on?"

Hearing this, Tuoba Yu finally raised his head, staring blankly at Zheng Wei.

"Get out of the car, go into the house, and we'll tell you everything we know!"

Zheng Wei pointed to the inside of the house and said bluntly.

Tuoba Yu followed her hand to look inside the house, then slowly got out of the car by himself, and walked slowly into the house.

The crowd followed behind him and walked in.

Mo Qi poured a bowl of hot water and handed it to him, and Tuoba Yu took a sip and held the bowl in his hand and rubbed it lightly, as if this could relieve his pain.

"Tell me, what is going on, please give me an explanation!"

Tuoba Yu seemed to have calmed down, and looked at everyone in the room with gloomy eyes.

But only the people in the palace knew a little bit about this matter, and the one who was most familiar with this time was the inner eunuch Asu who was next to Emperor Wei.

But at this moment, the inner prisoner didn't know where it was, and she and Luo Yan didn't know much, they could only say what they had.

Cui Yan, who was at the side, looked at the embarrassment of everyone, and took the lead in saying: "Let's talk first, the old minister!"

"At nightfall the day before yesterday, someone sneaked into the old minister's house and put a letter in the study. The man was very skilled in martial arts, and he didn't disturb others when he came in and out. If it wasn't for the private seal of Emperor Wei on the letter, I wouldn't believe it. This matter."

As he spoke, Cui Yan took out the letter from his pocket, and handed it to Tuoba Yu carefully.

Tuoba Yu took it and opened it to see that it was actually written by Emperor Wei himself, who asked him to guard outside the palace wall behind the palace to meet Tuoba Yu.

"Coincidentally, just after nightfall yesterday, Guard Mo from His Royal Highness's mansion also broke into the old man's mansion at night. I beg the old man to find a way to take His Highness out of the palace. The old minister then revealed a little bit to Guard Mo, and Guard Mo took the information of this courtyard Tell the old minister." Cui Yan couldn't help but sighed, looked at Tuoba Yu and said: "Your Highness, there are too many people who miss you, you should take care!"

Tuoba Yu held Cui Yan's letter tightly, without saying a word, turned to look at Zheng Wei.

Zheng Wei coughed lightly, and recounted everything she had said to herself after Emperor Wei sent someone to bring her to Changsheng Palace last night, when it came to the two pieces opened by Emperor Wei, she accidentally kept it a secret.

Then she also took out the secret scroll given by Emperor Wei from her bosom, and waved it at him.

Tuoba Yu reached out to take it but didn't open it to read, just held it in his hand and rubbed it.

Zheng Wei thought for a while, glanced at Luo Yan, and said cautiously: "Tuoba Yu, the reason why your father chose to take the risk is because... he was already seriously ill, and his time is numbered."

Tuoba Yu paused when he heard the words, he was locked up in the Jiafu Palace these days, although he didn't become blind and deaf as everyone thought, and he didn't know anything about the outside situation, but he really didn't know that Emperor Wei so sick.

At first, he thought that Emperor Wei's serious illness was actually a reason for him to call Taoist priests into the palace to make alchemy.

"Hasn't he been much better these days?" Tuoba Yu looked up at Luo Yan.

Luo Yan didn't expect that Tuoba Yu always knew that he would treat Emperor Wei again.

He thought about it for a while and looked up at Tuoba Yu, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty's illness can no longer be cured. If you live well, you may be able to survive for three to five months. The pills make people look like normal people."

"Like a normal person?" Tuoba Yu murmured and repeated this sentence.

"Yes, it just looks like it!"

"And then it will change back to its original form?" Tuoba Yu asked softly.

"It's not such a good thing. Overdraft doesn't have much energy left, so I can only die faster. Your Majesty can only take that pill for five days at most."

Everyone in the room looked at him in surprise, while Luo Yan himself looked at Tuoba Yu and said word by word: "If I guess correctly, today is the fifth day."

When the stone was thrown down, many people in the house were shocked.

Looking at the sad and forbearing expression on Tuoba Yu's face, Luo Yan felt a little happy in his heart!
Their Rouran royal family was almost slaughtered, but I can only find a little bit of happiness from their little pain here, isn't it sad!

The room fell into silence for a while, but it was Cui Yan who broke the silence, "Your Highness, the late emperor is a hero in this world, and his long-cherished wish in his life is to inherit the foundation of the Great Wei and expand the territory. The late emperor used his life to protect the future of the Great Wei. Paving the way, death is a worthy death, so His Highness doesn't have to feel too guilty."

"The most urgent thing right now is to find a way to get out of the city and join the Bauhinia army outside the city, and then attack back to Pingcheng in one fell swoop, inherit the legacy of the late emperor, and succeed to the throne."

"However, the eight major city gates of Pingcheng have been sealed and heavily guarded, making it impossible to leave the city at all."

Xiao Yucheng told about the situation in Pingcheng. Just now, some of his subordinates who stayed in Pingcheng checked the situation in Pingcheng.

Amu followed suit and said, "There are a total of 5 rebels in their city, and the Bauhinia Army of the Third Highness is only 2. Even if they leave the city, it may not be easy to attack them back."

"Furthermore, many of your senior officials in the Wei Dynasty have taken refuge in King Qinghe and the Heba family. Even if you take the imperial decree to succeed to the throne, some people will deny it!"

Zhao Mingzhi has been staring at Heba Mansion and Mingyue Tower these days, and he has seen all the people coming in and out, there are quite a few of them.

Cui Yan stood up at this moment, cupped his fists and said with a smile, "Your Highness, leave all the officials of the court to the old minister, and the old minister will persuade them."

"The veteran is one step ahead, waiting in Pingcheng for the return of the soldiers of the Third Highness!"

After Cui Yan left, the room fell into silence again.

"Third Highness, you grew up in Pingcheng, and you were a general of the imperial army before, is there a way to leave the city?"

Tuoba Yu didn't make a sound, but stood up and looked at Mo Qi, "Take me to rest."

Mo Qi hurriedly took him to the bedroom to rest, and when he came back after a while, he saw that everyone was still gathered here, so he couldn't help persuading him: "Everyone, go down and rest, Pingcheng has been under martial law for the past few days, even if there is a way to leave the city, it is inevitable that they will not be investigated. Arrived. His Highness said that after these few days, he would find a way to leave the city."

When everyone heard the words, they looked at each other and dispersed.

Xiao Yucheng wanted to say a few words to Zheng Wei, but after hesitating, Mo Qi came back again, "Princess, our Highness would like to invite you to come over."

Zheng Wei frowned after hearing this, after tossing and tossing all night, now she just wants to take a good rest.

She ignored Mo Qi, turned around and asked Xiao Yucheng, "Brother Xiao, where is my bedroom?"

"Follow me!" Xiao Yucheng hurriedly led her to the back.

After Zheng Wei tidied up, she suddenly remembered that Tuoba Yu couldn't fall asleep without reading scriptures and history every day, so after thinking about it, she simply went to Tuoba Yu's room.
