Chapter 143

In September of the 21st year of Xining, more than [-] rebels from Dingfan invaded Zhejiang, and the pirates supported them, using mountains and seas as their horns.Shen Jiangdong ordered the general town of Yuhang to send troops to the south. The town said that the horses were not fat and that it was rainy, so the troops did not move.This time, the king of Anping County was uncharacteristically, leading his army to go south, scolding the general town of Yuhang for disobeying the military order, and ordered him to go south from Xianxia Pass.Shen Jiangdong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so he left Yuhang one day and moved to Quzhou, the hub of the three provinces of Zhejiang, Fujian and Jiangxi.

The situation ahead is changing rapidly, and Siqing feels restless.The East Palace was ill for two days, and Siqing and Concubine Ding'an stayed in the East Palace.After reading the prescription in hand, Siqing turned her head and pointed to a scroll and said to Lingzhen next to her, "I saw a picture in the warehouse yesterday, and I don't know who wrote it. It's pretty good, you can take it to Fan Mrs. Ge, I heard that his family has newly built a garden."

Lingzhen took a look and saw that it was written by Liu Bingzhong:
The dried lotus leaves are gray in color, and the old handles are swaying in the wind.The fragrance is reduced, and the yellow is added.All because of a frost last night, lonely on the autumn river.

The dried lotus leaves reflect the withered cattails, and the broken handles are hard to reveal.Borrowing nothing, Qianfeng helps.Waiting for the engine to be weak and not to take the pearl, it is difficult to live on the beach head heron.

The roots are broken, the stalk is slanted, and the greenery reduces the fragrance.In this season, everything is absolutely perfect.Red mandarin ducks and egrets can't cover them, haggard and damaged dried lotus leaves.

Dried lotus leaves have no color, but they can't be filed by wind and frost.Look at the autumn waves and fall on the branches.The palace girls sang "The Song of Picking the Lotus" together, and the dream was prosperous.

South Peak, North Peak, Dismal Haze Cave.Song Gaozong, nothing.Wu Shan is still in the style of wine and flags, and has twice dreamed of Jiangnan.

Ling Zhen said cautiously: "This...is not very elegant..."

Siqing said casually: "Just send it over, what's so elegant and tame?"

Lu Chu took a closer look, and frowned, "Girl, isn't that good?"

Siqing asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Chu said: "This Song Gaozong is not good..."

"Didn't he be the master recently? Didn't he draw the river to rule?" Siqing said, "What's wrong with Song Gaozong?"

Ling Zhen said: "Aren't you just looking for trouble?"

Because there is no news from Shangxingyuan, Siqing can't sleep all day long.On that day, Yining's palace said that he was ill and was temporarily stationed in the palace. It is not known whether it was the news from him or Li Yuanzhen, the soldier who accompanied him.Siqing made up her mind and asked Concubine Zhou to go north to see her illness. Concubine Zhou had nothing to refute and left Beijing the next day.Lingzhen speculates that Siqing has always been worried about this highly experienced Zhou family, so she dismisses her.Siqing also recalled his attendants from Xiyuan to Ninghua Hall on the same day, preparing to return to live in Ninghua Hall.

On the same day, General Sun Pingfu of Dingyuan turned himself in and killed Sun Shengque.The Dingfan West Route Army attacked east and west, taking advantage of the British public to go east, and suddenly entered Sichuan from northern Guizhou, and the governor of Sichuan and Chongqing surrendered without a fight.As the situation continued to deteriorate, the cabinet sent a general to send a report to Yining, but the response was still "deliberated by the six ministries and nine ministers stationed in Beijing."Led by the cabinet in the afternoon, the six ministries and nine ministers stationed in Beijing gathered in the East Palace to meet.Siqing and Concubine Ding'an looked at each other, knowing that this moment was finally coming.

"I believe third brother," Siqing said, "I believe he will be fine."

Concubine Ding'an sighed, "Go, go out and meet them."

The Central Palace and the Yining Palace exchanged dresses, and brought the Eastern Palace to sit behind the screen.Everyone met in front of the screen, and Si Qing knew that she must take the lead, so she asked first: "Your Majesty is in Yining, how is the situation?"

Concubine Ding'an quickly echoed: "What the queen said is very true. Your Majesty is in Yining. We, the ladies and gentlemen, also want to know how the situation is."

The officials looked at each other, Fan Ziran said: "But I heard that His Majesty is slightly ill, and I don't know about other things..."

Si Qing said: "Since this is the case, it is not a big problem for His Majesty to come. The imperial concubine Zhou of Yuzhao Palace has recently left for Yining to serve the sick. Do you still have any doubts, why do you have to come here today?"

Fan Ziran said: "Returning to Your Royal Highness, the rebel army is advancing from east to west, and the situation is critical. Your Majesty ordered that the six ministries and nine ministers stationed in Beijing discuss this matter..."

"It's good that this matter is done according to the order," Si Qing said, "do you still have any doubts?"

The left servant of the Ministry of War said: "Her Majesty the Queen, the crisis on the western front, the most important thing is to send troops to reinforce immediately, but right now there are soldiers but no generals, all matters should be decided by Your Majesty."

Siqing's ability to pretend to be stupid is at its peak, "Then you guys are ready to submit the book, what's the matter? The Secretary of the General Administration won't pay your salary and stop working? You've all come here."

Fan Ziran said cautiously: "In the memorial, Your Majesty said that it will be decided by the six ministries and nine ministers stationed in Beijing..."

"Then discuss it," Siqing said, "The East Palace is here, you can make an agreement and issue the decree. The East Palace has no objection, and neither does this Palace and Concubine Ding'an."

There was a commotion downstairs, Siqing and Concubine Ding'an looked at each other, Concubine Ding'an whispered: "What's the situation? Third brother..." Siqing shook her head.

The government was in turmoil, and someone below opened his mouth and said: "The minister recommends General Cheng Yingzhou Cheng of the Jingwei!"

Someone immediately refuted, "Commander Cheng has never led soldiers on the front line, and he is not familiar with everything, how can you let him rush to help!"

Then there was another voice of "Miao Ge" at the bottom, and Si Qing suddenly said at this time: "Mr. Fan Ge, why don't you ask all the ministers to go to the cabinet to discuss? There is a lot of noise here, and the East Palace and the Royal Concubine are sick again..."
