The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

In the middle of the night, Sheng Yuan, who had just gone to bed, stared dazedly, as if he could feel the frequency of heartbeat and breathing gradually becoming one, and it only took a moment to fall into a sweet dream.

That's it!

A sudden knock on the door woke her up!

In an instant, the heartbeat and breathing that had just merged into one suddenly pushed each other apart and began to roll faster.

This made Sheng Yuan, who was so sleepy, to freeze in place, not knowing what was going on.

Fortunately, the knocking on the door persisted, and with persistence and perseverance, it finally knocked away the rest of Sheng Yuan's drowsiness.

"Here we come! We're here!" Sheng Yuan held back her yawn, and walked out with her shoes on.

"Xiaoyao?" Opening the door, Xiaoyao's frightened face came into view.

"Miss, Cheng Dong is here!" Xiaoyao tremblingly clutched Sheng Yuan's arm, "Master Xiaohou was detained in Neiwei Mansion!"

"What did you say?" Sheng Yuan immediately came to his senses, and his first reaction was that the inner guards were about to rebel!

"Sheng Si Cheng!"

Sheng Yuan raised her head and saw Cheng Dong running quickly from the corridor, and hurriedly stepped out: "What's going on?!"

"Not long after the young master returned to the mansion, he was invited by the inner guards. When he got there, he heard that the emperor, he, he had passed away!"

"What?!" Sheng Yuan didn't expect to hear such earth-shattering news from Cheng Dong's mouth, and immediately froze in place.

The emperor died?How can it be!

Their emperor doesn't pay much attention to women's sex and appetite, and even government affairs can't affect his health maintenance and exercise. He is simply the dream of serving the imperial doctor!
The Empress Dowager once told her that the imperial doctor concluded that the emperor may live longer than the previous emperor.

"Impossible! It must be a rumor!"

After Sheng Yuan was stunned, his brain started to work quickly, and he quickly concluded that someone wanted to stir up trouble!
"Yujia will be able to return to Beijing in less than half a month. I'm afraid that some people can't sit still and want to do that treacherous thing!"

Chengdong also didn't know the inside story: "The subordinates couldn't tell the truth from the fake, but the young master was furious when he heard the sound, and was about to chop the person who spoke, but was stopped by the deputy commander of the inner guard...Later, Princess Yongping came in a hurry , I wanted to have a secret talk with the young master. The young master had a closed-door discussion with her and the deputy commander of the internal guards, and soon the table was overturned. That’s when the young master was detained in the inner guard’s mansion."

"Then why did you come here!" Sheng Yuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Since Chengdong is here, it means that Brother Yu should be safe.

"Young Master fought for this subordinate. However, this subordinate feels that if this subordinate can come over and report the news, it is probably because of Princess Yongping's intention."

Princess Yongping!Princess Yongping!It's Princess Yongping again!

Why is there her shadow everywhere!
Sheng Yuan was inexplicably irritated.

If it was said that she was sure that Jing and Di Jia's deaths were rumors just now, then when she heard Princess Yongping's active involvement, she...was a little uncertain.

"Impossible! Impossible!" Sheng Yuan tried hard to calm down, trying to let her rationality prevail.

But the more you don't want to study it carefully, the more active your mind becomes, and all kinds of problems rush out.

If, if the emperor died... then what happened in the meantime?

If something happened to Jing and the emperor, what about the empress and the two concubines!

right!Queen!

Sheng Yuan felt a thunder in his head!
The old house of the Lu family, the accompanying queen, the two passages leading in and out of the capital, the missing grandson of the Lu family... These clues seemed to form a web, filtering out all the irrelevant information, and finally only the one left that made her lose her soul. possible surprise.

"Chengdong, hurry up and go to my house to meet my elder brother, he is the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture! Brother Yu is unable to move now, only my elder brother can contact the city inspector!" Sheng Yuan stumbled back into the house, holding his pen for a while Kuangcao, hastily stated the main points, put it in an envelope and handed it to Chengdong, and said quickly, "Remember, hand it to him in person! Also, this letter must not fall into the hands of others, especially Princess Yongping!"

"My subordinate obeys the order!" Although Cheng Dong was concerned about An Yu's safety, An Yu had told him before that he should put Sheng Yuan's order first.

"Xiaoyao!" Sheng Yuan grabbed Xiaoyao's arm, took out the jade pendant from his collar, and handed it to her, "You enter the palace now! This is the token given to me by the Queen Mother, even if the palace gate is locked." See you! Take it to see Aunt Qi, and tell her what happened today... Remember, unless the rumors are settled, don’t let the queen mother know!"

"I understand!" Xiaoyao grasped the jade pendant tightly and was about to act, but Sheng Yuan held her back when she didn't want to.

She looked at Sheng Yuan in confusion: "Miss?"

"You don't leave until I'm out!" Sheng Yuan turned around and took a pair of ring-shoulders and hung them on his waist, adjusted his official uniform, put on his official hat, and walked out.

"Miss, where are you going?" Xiaoyao didn't expect her lady to go out alone in the middle of the night, and immediately shook her head vigorously, "Are you alone? No! No! No!"

"Didn't you always say that when I meet a strong man by chance, the one who should think about how to protect himself is the strong man? Why can't I go alone? Besides, I don't plan to go far with your lady!"

Sheng Yuan pointed diagonally ahead as he walked: "The Neiwei Mansion is just on the street ahead. I used to be an important person for your lady!"

"...The slave will accompany you!" Xiaoyao was afraid that his young lady would also be detained.

Even if my young lady is highly skilled in martial arts, but two fists are no match for four hands, and if they attack in groups, no matter how good your kung fu is, you will be worse off!
"Confused!"

Sheng Yuan paused, and looking over, his pretty face was unprecedentedly serious: "There are priorities! You should know that there is no way to end an egg under a nest! The situation is urgent now, and we are waiting between the cliffs." Fumble and go, if one is not careful, the whole clan will be lost forever!
At such a time, how can you only pay attention to my safety? !Now the wind is coming, the rain is coming, you can't hold me back! "

"Slave... here." Hearing this, Xiaoyao really realized that there seemed to be a rain of swords and swords hidden in the situation at this moment, resisting the teardrops swirling in his eyes, nodded, stopped and stopped following.

Seeing that she can be taught as a child, Sheng Yuan didn't care about anything else, and strode towards the Neiwei Mansion.

……

"It's useless for you to attract Sister Yuan!" An Yu crossed her arms, sat on the back of the chair, looked down at Princess Yongping and the deputy commander of the internal guards, and sneered, "If you have the ability, you Kill them all, otherwise, when the emperor and the noble concubine come back, you can take the heads of the heads and confess!"

"Young Master, you don't want to accept the reality. There is nothing you can do. The guards of the family garden ran away and crippled five horses to send a message. It is an indisputable fact that the Holy Dragon Yu died. The most urgent thing is to stabilize the situation in Kyoto! If the Holy Spirit is alive, I don't want to look at Da Chu The country is in chaos, right?"

"Shut up!" An Yu's eyes were red, and she jumped off the back of the chair, her fists were firmly pressed against the table, her eyes locked on Princess Yongping, "Even if you are a princess, if you say something Such rebellious words, Lord Ben Hou would not mind sending you off with Shang Fang's sword!"
