Chapter 148

Si Qing said: "The third brother didn't stay in the Yining palace, probably because he found out that there was something wrong with the Yining palace. I was worried that someone would play a trick to murder the third brother and protect the young master. Sure enough, I'm afraid the first I was the one who had the accident. Actually, I thought about it. To mobilize the garrison in the suburbs of Beijing to support the western front, the best candidate is Sun Pingfu, but I can’t mention it now. I mentioned it as meddling in military affairs, and it would give them an excuse to attack me. But The current situation can no longer be delayed, so I want to encourage them to act first, and they act first, so that I can bite back."

Ling Zhen asked: "Will they do it? What if they don't want to?"

Si Qing said: "If Ning Shouhou really has no ambitions, why did he contact the informant He Shi left before? Why did he drug Donggong to blame me?"

Ling Zhen said: "But the former commander of Fan Tang had an accident, and there is no evidence of the connection between Ning Shouhou and Ding Fan."

Siqing said: "Perhaps Ningshou Mansion doesn't have Litong Dingfan, but this does not prove that Ningshou Mansion has no intention of putting me to death." Siqing sighed, "You will know in a few days. Write to Sister Xuan Bin, ask her to postpone her return to Beijing, since she happens to be away from Beijing, don't get involved this time."

Siqing couldn't sleep well for several days in a row, as long as she didn't sleep well, there would be many dreams at night.One dream followed another, and I woke up tired in the morning.That night, Siqing didn't sleep well. In her dream, she dreamed that Xiao Yi wrote her a letter, and the letter was sent back to the Imperial Capital. She was watching from the Zhanyun Tower of Ninghua Hall.Lingzhen delivered the letter to her, she read it, took the letter like crazy and took a few people to Pingcheng.

On the way, there was a strong autumn wind, the sky was dark, and it rained heavily.

She desperately searched for a way in the rain, and finally found a cottage outside the city according to the address in the letter.The rain was so heavy that the water drenched her coat along the coir raincoat.A cold light suddenly hit her face, she subconsciously drew out her dagger to block, and quickly changed her moves to counterattack.But the opponent was faster than her, she was unsteady, and a bloodstain was stabbed on her forearm instantly.At this time, the attendants around her reacted and exclaimed, she and the other party stopped at the same time, only then did they see that the other party was Sun Chengfu.

Sun Chengfu's face was snow-white, and he hurriedly prostrated himself to plead guilty, but Siqing hissed, signaling him not to make publicity.A group of people came to the courtyard, Siqing wrapped the wound with a handkerchief, entered the inner room, saw Xiao Yi lying on the couch, and saw Siqing was shocked: "Why are you here?"

Siqing quickly supported his pulse, "Third Brother, why are you injured?"

Xiao Yi was anxious, "What are you doing here? Beijing needs you!"

Siqing persisted and asked, "Why did you get hurt?"

Xiao Yi coughed weakly, Si Qing was about to cry, Xiao Yi held her hand: "Why are you also injured?"

Sun Chengfu hurriedly bowed down, Siqing forced a smile and said, "I'm fine."

Xiao Yi sighed, and squeezed her hand tightly, "I'll leave it to you, elder brother, you can go back to Beijing quickly, and there won't be any more chaos."

Siqing was crying and laughing again, and asked softly in Xiao Yi's ear: "Aren't you afraid that I will steal your family's land?"

Xiao Yi's whole body was stiff, and his face was even more so, Siqing said softly, "I'm afraid, get better soon."

This nightmare woke Si Qing up in the middle of the night. She was worried that there would be another change in Ningshou Mansion, or that she would plan to help the young master, and she felt more and more uneasy.Although she had already secretly controlled the Gyeonggi Shuwei, she knew that she would never be able to mobilize the imperial army and the Gyeonggi garrison unless it was absolutely necessary, otherwise she would not be able to get rid of the charge of pre-government anyway.She also knew the so-called "you must first give what you want to take", so she could only ignore Ningshou Mansion's actions.

Siqing never went to Qingxiyuan in Nannei, but always lived in Qiongyu in Xiyuan.When she was an imperial concubine, she loved living in Qingxi Garden the most.Because Qingxiyuan is located in the corner of the imperial capital, far away from Miyagi, so she really put in a lot of effort in Qingxiyuan's defense, even the palace servants of Qingxiyuan are Lingzhen's carefully selected cronies.And Xiyuan is close to the ban, and it seems that the defense line is dense, but in fact it is tight on the outside and loose on the inside.Siqing stays in the East Palace during the day and goes to Xiyuan at night. Lingzhen is very worried about Siqing's safety, so she advises Siqing to go back to Ninghua Palace, but Siqing just refuses.

It was today that the news that Yining was seriously ill was sent back to the imperial capital, and the city was full of wind and rain.Every day, many relatives and family members come in to say hello, test Siqing's tone, Siqing sees her tricks, but the rumors are raging, and then it rains heavily, and the low-lying places in the west of the city begin to accumulate water. There were many people praying for blessings.

It was raining heavily that day, Ling Zhen was ordered to visit the East Palace, and when she returned to the West Garden she looked flustered, Si Qing said: "What are you in a hurry for? Go and change quickly, be careful not to get sick."

Impatient, Ling Zhen waved back the maid, stepped forward and whispered to Si Qing: "He Meiren hastily told me that Dong Gongwei is not quite right these few days. Mrs. Ning Shouhou sent her a message through the servant, saying No matter what happens, just tell her not to panic, just take good care of Brother Chang..."

Siqing said lightly: "I know, He Shouzhi hasn't changed much recently, so I really don't live up to expectations."

Ling Zhen said: "Miss, are you not in a hurry?"

Siqing said: "It's useless to be anxious. Ning Shouhou has to do big things. He doesn't have a single soldier. How many people are there in the East Palace Guard? If he wants to do big things, he must either control the Jingwei, or take the risk and kill me, or plant me to pass The ministers forced me to put pressure on me, if he made any movement, why should I be anxious?"

Ling Zhen asked: "Then what if he plans to attack Jingwei?"

Si Qing gave Ling Zhen a meaningful look, "He probably doesn't have this ability."

The next night, Siqing wore a half-worn silver gauze blouse and a white silk skirt, and walked out with her hair pulled up, just in time to bump into Lingzhen who was hurrying in.

Ling Zhen took a look at Si Qing's attire, and became dizzy with anger, "Girl, what time is it? What are you thinking about?"

Siqing said: "Don't worry, the sky still won't fall. Dingfan is still fighting across the river, what are you afraid of?"

Ling Zhen said: "People don't have long-term worries, they must have near-term worries..."

Siqing said, "This analogy doesn't seem appropriate?"

"You are dressed like this, where are you going?"

"Go out for a walk."

"Go out... where do you go for a stroll?"

"Walking around casually," Si Qing suddenly realized, "What do you want?"

Ling Zhen said: "Assassins have entered the front! Didn't you hear the commotion in front?"

Siqing smiled and said: "It's just dark, the assassins don't care too much. Since I came back to Beijing, I have met assassins three or four times. There are as many assassins in the imperial capital. What's so scary?" After finishing speaking, she still walked out.

Lingzhen asked: "Where are you going?"

Siqing said: "I'm bored, let's go to my brother's place for a walk."

Ling Zhen said: "The assassin is caught in the front, you can't get out from the front."

Siqing said: "Catch the assassin, I'm not an assassin, what are you afraid of?" After finishing speaking, she turned back to the hall and went out from the west gate of the main hall. The secret path goes out of the West Garden."

Ling Zhen said: "What?!"

Siqing said: "It's convenient for me to go out for a stroll. You haven't heard that the Purple Palace has a way to connect to the fragrance nest, and the pink is very romantic... This analogy seems inappropriate."
