The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 150 Chaos
"Uncle, the atmosphere outside is a bit strange recently. Even a few streets outside our shop, we can see many strangers."

The morning breeze blew across the courtyard and squeezed into the gaps in the window sills. The woman wearing only a bellyband wrung out the towel and handed it to the young man sitting on the edge of the bed. When she sat down immediately, the taut fabric outlined the peach-shaped buttocks, white Rue Xiang passed the jade belt through the man's back, and tied it gently against the man's body.

Geng Qing wiped his face, saw that the belt was fastened, handed the towel back to her, got up with a smile, walked to the basin stand, and washed his hands.

"Chang'an is so big, it's normal to have faces of strangers."

"That's not true, you are like Qiao Niang when you are a concubine." The woman got up, twisted her waist and approached, pulled the man's hands over, and wiped them gently. Come on, I’m always familiar with it, and those strangers are still holding weapons, they are in small groups, their eyes look like wolves, and they seem to be able to swallow people alive, people in the Jianghu are not so ruthless.”

"Afraid?"

The two of them are so familiar that they can't be more familiar. They maintain the etiquette of uncle and sister-in-law in front of others, but there are not so many rules in the rear. Geng Qing smiled and pinched Shui's tender face, Bai Yunxiang opened his hand coquettishly, "It hurts"

The eyelids blinked, and then she glanced in vain, twisted her plump waist, put on the dress, combed her hair in front of the bronze mirror, inserted the pearl hairpin, looked at the face reflected in the mirror, and proudly puffed out her chest.

"I hate it. Who is afraid, my uncle is the prime minister, and I am not afraid of it."

'Ha ha'

Over there, Geng Qing chuckled, and casually took the unlined clothes on the rack and put them on, "Your prime minister was almost assassinated a few days ago."

"what?"

The woman looking at the bronze mirror touched the pearl hairpin and turned around with a look of horror on her face. Subconsciously, she ran over and hugged the man who opened the door by his back.

"Uncle, what happened to Chaoli?"

"Don't worry, be your female shopkeeper with peace of mind. If you are a little scared, stay at home and don't move around." Geng Qing pulled the door latch, thought for a while, turned around and hugged the woman, and patted her on the back.

"Some things, don't ask, knowing too much is not a good thing, understand?"

After finishing speaking, Geng Qing smiled at her, came to open the door and went out, greeted the parents in the courtyard, Qiao Niang, Dou Wei and others had breakfast.

Apart from Dachun's knowledge of the plans for these days, only Qin Huaimian and Jiuyu, who participated in it, know the most detailed information, while Tu Shifei, Wang Feiying and other chief arresters only know how to overthrow the rebel court and welcome the Tang emperor back. It was also under this banner to drive them, otherwise, it would be impossible for a group of arresting yamen servants to work for themselves.

Of course, there is another one who knows the layout, who is not in Chang'an at the moment, but in Zhu Wen's army account. Counting the time, it is almost time to return to the court with the opponent's squadron.

During breakfast, Dachun, who always talked a lot, seldom talked about what happened outside. Other people in the courtyard had heard that the city was not peaceful recently, so they chose not to ask.

Geng Qing buried his head in his meal. Most of the fights that broke out in the city in the past one or two months were carried out by soldiers from both sides. The scale was relatively small, and it was far less tragic than the battles. Both Shang Rang and Meng Juehai knew about it. They can't go too far, Huang Chao's face, they still have to give it, but it's impossible for them to let go of their feud completely, that day at the gate of the city in front of so many people, the faces on both sides were torn apart, no one Giving the other party a step down is a mess, and now the high officials in the court are gritting their teeth to support the other party.

Of course, following the mediation during this period of time, he also used the name of Huang Chao to make peace between the two sides, and he also made peace with the two sides in the name of the leftist. Da Qi is so good that some ministers who originally looked down on Geng Qing, seeing him running back and forth and being scolded, have thoughts of injustice instead.

'What the hell is your Majesty doing? They are all my old brothers. '

Many old people in the rebel army wanted to rush into the palace and question them in court, but they just thought about this kind of thing in their hearts, and if they really wanted to do that, they wouldn't be out of their heads until now.

Perhaps Meng Juehai and Shang Rang felt that they had gone too far after receiving Huang Chao's order, but the anger and face in their hearts would not be so easy to get over. Changing out of armor and wearing regular clothes is like a gang continuing to destroy each other's properties in the city , just like when it was mixed in the green forest.

This caused headaches for everyone in the Chang'an government office. When someone was arrested, the people in the army on both sides would bring people to ask for it. I will talk about the security issues in the city, but I can only say that there have been a lot more knights wandering around the rivers, lakes and green forests recently.
In the end, these things fell to Shang Shu Zuo Pu who shot Geng Qing on the head, which made him laugh and cry, but the method was still tough, and he ordered the Ministry of Punishment to arrest people, and if they caught them, they would be thrown into Dali Temple. Shangrang's documents were brought to Dali Temple.

In this way, a lieutenant and a defense envoy were a little bit ashamed. Correspondingly, there were fewer chaotic fights, but only a little less.

"I'm done eating, father and mother, you eat slowly, I'm going to have a look under the door right now."

Geng Qing put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth, bowed his hands to the elder, got up and was about to leave, when suddenly a figure in ordinary clothes outside was ushered in by the gang members from the courtyard through the side door.

"Geng Xiang, something happened."

The news came from the palace, so it was inevitable that someone would catch him and leave behind him. Usually he didn't bring paper slips. The man was a familiar face, and when he came over, he would whisper a few words in Geng Qing's ear.

The latter nodded expressionlessly, and only said: "Got it, you go back first, take a message to Jiuyu and Qin Huaimian, I'll be there later."

The guard clasped his fists and nodded, turned around and quickly ran out of the side yard gate, looked at the streets on both sides, and disappeared in the morning light in the blink of an eye.

"Pillar, what happened?"

The old man Geng came to his son in a wheelchair, Geng Qing didn't answer, turned around with a smile, pushed his father back, and said as he walked: "It's a small matter, if you can't make a storm, Dad will just stay at home."

Handing her father to Qiao Niang who rushed over, she patted the little girl's head, looked at her red face, and then Geng Qing turned and walked out of the courtyard. Smacking his whip, he drove the carriage quickly away from Yong'an Square, and went straight to the imperial city.

'The jumping clown. '

Blowing up the car curtain, the warm golden light shone on his face, Geng Qing closed his eyes and said softly, thinking of the contents of the news in his mind.

Time goes back a little.

Before dawn, at four o'clock, a lone rider walked through the neighborhood in the light of the west-hanging moon, and shook the torch in his hand with the guard on the tower. The general quietly opened the city gate to let people in.

After a while, the knight extinguished the torch and rode his horse through the palace road, went to the east palace and sneaked into Taiye Lake, hid the horse, avoided several patrolling palace guards and eunuchs through the corner, and quietly approached the Zichen Palace in the distance.

"The Taiwei's guess is correct, the atmosphere in the palace is really wrong"

The visitor was dressed in black and tight-fitting, looking at the closely patrolling figures with his eyes, he escaped into the grass in the flowerbed, climbed over the rockery and approached again, looked at the window lattice of the bedroom with burning lights, pulled down the mask, and put his fingers on his lips. superior.

chirp chirp chirp
In the empty night, there were a few clear night birds chirping suddenly.
