Qingchuan History

Chapter 844 Kun Ling

On this side, Gu Chunfeng led the team and followed the soldier all the way to Miyagi, and saw the Changxin Gate in the distance, and then looked at the Zheng'an Gate, which was closed everywhere, and the streets were full of forbidden troops.

"[-] imperial guards guard the imperial city, which is the deployment of the general a few days ago when he presided over the situation." The soldiers whispered.

Chai Zhan was ordered by the emperor, which was the deployment of Brother Nine.Gu Chunfeng stopped at a dark corner of the corridor under the continuous roof tiles. The view from the third floor should be the usual route for this soldier to sneak.

Because of the battle at the Fu'an Gate, the city was not as clean as usual. From time to time, teams were ordered to move to support, and then more teams came from the north. It was the Fourth Battalion of the Forbidden Army who continued to transport troops.

"How did you start? Since the capital is still peaceful, the eldest princess is in charge of the overall situation, so she can completely clear up the misunderstanding and persuade the rebellious army to retreat." Ji Qi was relieved when he learned that Ji Ping was discussing countermeasures with his ministers in the palace. There was also time to ask questions about the situation.

"When my subordinates went to Wumumen to change shifts, I heard that the palace sent envoys to negotiate on the tower, saying that the country is stable, and the rumors are not true."

"Can't the other party listen?"

"There is a leader in the rebellious army, who seems to say that since it is stable, he will open the city gate to prove it."

How could this posture open the city gate easily? What if there is a fraud?The city is not opened, the outside of the city is not believed, the negotiation fails, and the city is attacked for some reason.Gu Chunfeng sneered inwardly, secretly thinking that this method seems simple at first glance, but it can really push the situation to the point where it doesn't matter if it cooperates with the current situation. "Who is the envoy?"

"Like His Royal Highness King Ning."

It is rumored that King Ning has been killed, so sending him to negotiate is a way to break the situation.

But it's useless. It can be seen that the drunkard's intention is not to drink, and the instigator wants to create chaos. At this time when the border is chaotic and the country is empty.

The most important decision-maker should do at this moment is to quell the chaos and preserve the troops to prepare for the national war, right?

If Ji Ping is loyal to the emperor and the country, if he should discuss at this time, it should be in this direction.

On the way back to Jidu, Gu Chunfeng always thought about sneaking back to the palace, and after seeing Elder Sister Xiao Mo, he could make a long-term plan, maybe he could play a trick in the dark.

At this moment, he changed his mind. "You can't send me into the palace, can you?" Still asked the soldier.

"Your Highness, forgive me. The palace is currently closed and no water can enter, unless the adults have finished their discussions and reopen the palace gate—"

It's not easy to mix in.Obviously, the guards outside the palace walls are stricter than those outside the city walls.

"Thank you." Chunfeng nodded, "Since you secretly obey the orders of the thirteenth prince and this hall, you don't need to accompany me anymore, just go on standby."

The soldier should be, and asked worriedly: "There has been no news from the Thirteenth Highness for a day and a night, the princess—"

Chunfeng smiled, "So this hall, we must return to the palace in a fair manner." Then he asked Ji Qi, "Do you go home to heal your wounds first, or come into the palace with me?"

Ji Qi was seriously injured, and he had exhausted his last strength in climbing and sneaking just now. "There is an imperial doctor in the palace, and it is better to eat than the prime minister's mansion." But he immediately decided, "Thanks to Your Highness for not giving up, I am willing to enter the palace."

Ji Ping was in the palace, as his younger brother, another son of the Ji family, he really couldn't stand by and watch.Whether it is loyalty or treachery, whether it is life or death, you must always be present.

Gu Chunfeng didn't think much about it at first, but he was reminded after hearing his decisive answer.

She walked over to get closer to him, "Why don't you go home first? The situation in the palace is unknown——"

Ji Qi curled up his mouth and smiled, this was the second time since the cave, he smiled viciously, like a playboy, "Your Highness is scared."

Chunfeng's eyes changed slightly. "What?"

"I'm afraid that I'll eat up all the delicacies from the imperial catering department and use up the good medicine from the Imperial Medical Bureau." Ji Qi smiled brighter, the blood-stained corners of his eyes and brows seemed to be adorned with midsummer fireworks.

Gu Chunfeng had no reason to think of the fireworks on the eve of Tianchang Festival that year.Like stars like snow, the city was full of turmoil, Shen Ji accompanied the emperor on the Mingguang Terrace, and he and this kid immediately looked at the sky together under the palace wall.

At that time, the eldest sister and brother-in-law should have enjoyed the grand sight together somewhere, right?There is a folk joke that people who watch fireworks together on the eve of Tianchang Festival will never be separated. 【1】

The sound of flying arrows piercing the air, the sound of heavy objects falling, and the sound of shouts and killings continued to come from the east.

Gu Chunfeng calmed down, made an appointment with the soldiers to send a message, and led Ji Qi and the girls downstairs in a grand manner, and soon appeared on the street lined with forbidden troops.

The people all closed their doors and closed their homes at home.At first sight, the armored soldiers looked like civilians but not civilians, soldiers but not soldiers, and they were all in a mess, so they subconsciously drew their swords.

Being bullied by Chunfeng's loud announcement of the house, he looked at each other in dismay, and then saw the waist card and knelt down on one knee.

"My lord, please send me back to the palace."

The avenue in front of Zheng'anmen is not as wide as it used to be.It was filled by soldiers, and because of the return of the princess, the three people were forced to give up the wide and narrow path.Gu Chunfeng was dressed in a military uniform, covered in blood and dirt, and so were the girls behind her, showing the hardships of killing enemies on the border and returning to the capital after thousands of miles.

The thin and tall boy who walked at the end staggered and looked the worst. The only face was clean, which was incompatible with the blood all over his body, as if it had been cleaned up on purpose.

——Ji Qi asked Chunfeng for the handkerchief before coming down.Since he showed his face and returned to the palace with the princess, he wanted everyone in the world to see that it was him, Ji Ping's younger brother, the second son of the former Prime Minister, who was also fighting for the country and being loyal.

Holding the square handkerchief, he kept looking at the guards along the way, and finally saw a familiar face and grinned.That was the brother who used to be in the riding camp.

The other party was stunned, and was about to blurt out "Your boy", reacting to the wrong occasion, held back, turned around and winked at the colleague beside him.

All of a sudden more acquaintances saw Ji Qi, they were all overjoyed, and seeing that he seemed to have lost half his life in such a mess, they all cast sympathetic salutes.

This is enough.Ji Qi closed his eyes, and stuffed Chunfeng's handkerchief into his front.

Not going to pay her back.And she is anxious about family affairs and state affairs, so she must have forgotten it.

The Zheng'an Gate opened, and a person stood under the jade steps at the end of the long avenue, his skirt fluttering, like a Guanghan fairy in the palace in the middle of a spring night.

Gu Chunfeng was sure it was Chunyue at a glance, so he quickened his pace.The palace door closed behind her, and she had no time to care.

"Elder Sister!" She came up to her, grasped the opponent's hand, stared at her, waiting to hear the inside story.Farther away, the Mingluan Hall was brightly lit, it should be that the ministers and workers were discussing matters.

"I received a report that you are back. How did you make it like this!" Chunyue seemed to have no inside story to tell, and she didn't understand her anxiety at the moment. She looked her up and down, and pulled her to go around the palace road on the left to the backyard. Go, "I've already informed Linghua Palace, Ah Yi should be preparing, rest quickly and ask Dr. Cui to take a good look—"

Speaking of this, she was taken aback, and found that there was a man behind the girls.

Turn around and look, isn't it my uncle?
"You're back too?"

Ji Qi limped and saluted respectfully, "Sister-in-law."

Chunyue looked at Chunfeng speechlessly, "Why did he abduct him back and abduct him into the palace?"

Chunfeng pouted at Mingluan Hall, "He came to look for brother-in-law."

It was clearly not what he said before.But Ji Qi understood, "Yes. There is no one at home, brother, sister-in-law and sister are all in the palace, anyway, His Royal Highness wants to go back, so I will come together."

Chunyue pondered for a while, "Your sister is not in the palace."

Ji Qichun was shocked.

"Someone has been sent to search for it, but there is no news."

"Where can she go in the chaos of war!" Ji Qi was in a hurry, already disturbed by family and country changes and outside rumors, he easily got angry.

Chunyue looked at him rather, "She left by herself. If she dares to leave, she should have a way to protect herself."

Ji Qi was startled.

The faces of his father, elder brother, and second sister flashed in his mind.

In the past, only the father and elder brother were secretive, but now even the second sister has to do things that no one knows?
Gu Chunfeng felt the weight of Chunyue's few words on Ji Qi's body, and couldn't bear it. He stepped forward and held his wrist, "Can you hold on? Go to Mingluan Hall to find your brother?"

Before Ji Qi could answer, Chunyue changed color first: "What nonsense! You—"

"I'm a girl, and I'm still a princess. How can I break into the Mingluan Palace and disturb the discussions of the ministers and workers?"

Chunyue didn't expect her to catch it neatly, so she stopped for a moment.

"The eldest sister is also a woman and a princess," Chunfeng continued, "Well, but the eldest sister is the eldest princess and entrusted by the lord to guard the country, which is naturally different from me."

Chunyue became more and more confused about what she wanted to say and what she wanted to do.

"But now, I'm not just Daqi's princess." She heard her voice sinking, and her gaze also sinking, "I'm still a soldier of this country. I just returned from the war-torn northern border. They understand the situation in the outside world better, and they have made military exploits. Eldest sister, I have the qualifications and reasons to enter the Mingluan Palace to speak out."

Shocked by her voice and eyes, Gu Chunyue stared at her for a moment and suddenly changed her attitude.

"Is it because of that rumor?"

This is the question of Princess Daqi, plain and majestic, it is very different from the kindness and tenderness of the sister of the previous family.

Ji Qi knew that people like them were born with two faces when he was young, but he refused to have two faces, so he laughed and cursed, and had a similar taste with Gu Chun who also insisted on one face for many years.

But finally at this moment, he and she also have to learn to change their faces, speak openly and secretly, and target the target.

"Since elder sister understands, she should know why I have to go to Mingluan hall at this moment."

Gu Chun's moon is covered with moonlight, and Yinze is evenly blended with pink and black, just like a fairy in Guanghan.It should even be calmer and calmer than Chang'e, who is blue sea, blue sky, and heart-warming every night. "You have seen it. Your brother-in-law is working with the ministers to settle the best way to calm the internal and external troubles. Your seventh brother is alive and well, and is now in charge of Fu'anmen. The rumors are all falsehoods, words of a conspiracy to create chaos. .”

"Then why are Chai and his son under house arrest?"

"Who told you they were under house arrest?" Gu Chunyue raised her eyebrows.

What the soldier said was staying behind closed doors, and the house arrest was Gu Chunfeng's own guess.She knew in her heart that at this point, Xiao Mo was the only person who could be trusted. He was probably the last line of defense left by Brother Nine in Jidu, holding the [-] forbidden troops, so he couldn't be exposed anyway.

Then he calmly said: "I heard about it when I entered the city. Otherwise, even if the rebellious army attacked the city, even if the seventh brother came forward as an envoy to negotiate and can best dispel the rumors, at least there should be a general like Chai Yinuo at the gate of the city. "

Chunyue stared at her deeply for a moment.

In the end, she never asked how she got in when the gates of the city were closed. "Is it necessary to go to the palace?"

Gu Chunfeng took a step back and cupped his hands in a military salute, "Please elder sister be accommodating."

Chunyue had been listening to the discussion in the Mingluan Hall, and waited at the bottom of the jade steps only after she learned that she had returned.

The majestic palace stands in the center of the 300-year-old palace city, which is close at hand and far away.

She glanced back, straightened her skirt and said solemnly:
"Let's go then."
