Chapter 149

Ling Zhen said: "Don't go, it's a mess."

Siqing smiled, "I've seen a lot of assassins, who knows if this is a real assassin or a fake assassin?"

Siqing insisted on going, but Lingzhen couldn't persuade her, so she stomped her feet and went to find Cheng Yingzhou.Who knew that Siqing didn't go to Gu's house, but moved back to Nannei Qingxi Garden with the palace servants for a short stay.Cheng Yingzhou was in a hurry for a long time, and finally chased all the way to Qingxi Garden, entered from the west side door, all the way was quiet, there were chirping insects.After the rain, the sound of the water in the river is turbulent, and there is fog everywhere. The huge Qingxi Garden is like a fairyland.

Siqing glanced at Cheng Yingzhou, who had an extremely ugly face, and changed his expression, "Immediately send the military guards of the government to seal off the blocks around Xiyuan."

Cheng Yingzhou was out of breath and said, "Your Highness, the people from Xiyuan seem to be after you."

Siqing said: "Don't they want to clear the king's side? Don't they want to clear me? If they can't find me, let's see what they do!" After speaking, she turned to Cheng Yingzhou and said, "Little lady is still in the East Palace?"

Cheng Yingzhou said: "Yes, the imperial concubine and Empress He are both in the East Palace."

Siqing asked slowly: "Tell me, what happened tonight?"

Cheng Yingzhou bowed and said, "Earlier, someone claimed that there were assassins in Xiyuan, but Xiyuan was in chaos for a long time and no one was caught. At this time, Dong Gongwei came and said that he came here on order to protect His Highness. Miss Lingzhen told His Highness I left Xiyuan long ago, so it is impossible to mobilize the East Palace Guard. The Xiyuan guards did not let the East Palace Guard enter, and the two sides clashed. The minister felt that there was a change, and asked the Jinwu Guard to block Xiyuan from the outside. Withdrew, so it became more and more chaotic. The minister felt that something was wrong, so he hurried to see His Highness."

Siqing sneered and said: "Good idea, mess up Xiyuan, if I lose my life in the chaos, it will become a headless case. What a clever Qing Dynasty."

Cheng Yingzhou hurriedly said, "What should we do now?"

"The Xiyuan guards and the Donggong guards aren't chaotic enough? What do you do with the Jinwu guards? Don't you think it's not chaotic enough? They are too impatient and want to kill me without excuse. But they blew themselves up in advance. For me It's a good thing. Let them make a fuss all night, and we'll investigate when it gets worse tomorrow. Find out what's going on with Dong Gongwei's abnormal movement."

Cheng Yingzhou said: "I understand."

Siqing said: "There is an accident on the western front. The third brother has not heard from him for a long time, and he has to transfer troops..." After speaking, he shook his head and looked at Cheng Yingzhou, "Old Cheng, what did I tell you before?"

With a guilty conscience, Cheng Yingzhou bowed down and said, "Your Highness said that no matter what, the Jingwei cannot move without authorization, even if His Highness is in danger."

Siqing snorted coldly, Cheng Yingzhou kowtowed and said: "I am guilty of disobedience, and I would rather die, but it concerns the safety of His Highness, and I dare not obey the imperial edict even if I die."

Siqing said: "Be careful, don't follow other people's advice." After speaking, she walked away.

Siqing moved to Nannei Li Palace, she couldn't sleep well at night, half asleep and half awake, she felt that she was still living in Xiyuan, and for some reason, she left Xiyuan and went to the streets outside.After walking for a while, the road in front of me was very familiar, and when I looked up, it turned out to be Gu Heng's mansion in the depths of Ginkgo Street.

It just rained heavily yesterday, and there was a lot of water at the entrance of Gu's house, reflecting the hexagonal lanterns at the entrance, forming overlapping phantoms.Wu Zhenying's housekeeper in Beijing, Lu Shu, came to open the door, and was quite surprised to see Siqing, and still called Siqing "Miss Gu".

Siqing agreed to come in, and said with a smile, "Uncle Wu is here?"

The two walked into the courtyard. The main room was brightly lit, and a lot of luggage was packed underground. Fu Linchuan and Gu Liang were going to go back to Tonghe separately.Seeing Si Qing, Gu Heng was taken aback, "Why are you here again? Didn't say anything in advance."

Siqing smiled, "I didn't tell you in advance."

At this time, Fu Linchuan and Wu Zhenying from the inner room came out, Siqing smiled and said, "Uncle Wu, Uncle Fu."

Fu Linchuan said: "Are you here? Come in and sit down."

Gu Heng asked: "Why are you out again?"

Siqing said, "I'm not in jail."

It turned out that Wu Zhenying and the others hadn't eaten yet, when Si Qing came in and sat down with everyone at the table, the atmosphere suddenly became very awkward.

Rumors have been circulating recently that Siqing is dying and Siqing's complexion is ugly. Gu Heng first asked: "Are you okay? Your complexion is so ugly?"

Siqing put down the chopsticks she just picked up, put her hands on her forehead and said, "I'm fine, why haven't you and Uncle Fu left yet?"

"Feelings, are you here to urge us to leave?" Gu Heng said, "I will leave tomorrow. A few days ago, Zheng Yiqin lost his son and went to offer condolences. Didn't it rain heavily yesterday, so we didn't make it."

Wu Zhenying asked Siqing, "Why is Beijing a bit chaotic lately?" Siqing forced a smile and said, "Uncle, guess who I met on Shenghe Street that day?"

Wu Zhenying shook his head.

Siqing said: "It's Xiaowu Dinghou's uncle, General Dingyuan Sun Pingfu, a general of the Central Route Army."

Wu Zhenying's complexion changed, and Gu Heng said: "Sun? He wasn't the one who defected and killed Zheng Yiqin's son... No, why didn't he flee south when he defected? Why did he come back to the capital? Death?"

Siqing said: "He didn't rebel at all, someone harmed him, he didn't want to die for no reason, so he fled back to Beijing and surrendered."

Wu Zhenying said: "Old Zheng hates him so much that he gnashes his teeth."

Siqing smiled wryly, and Gu Heng said: "How are you doing?"

Siqing said: "It's a mess." After speaking, she picked up the chopsticks and threw them down.

Wu Zhenying said: "You should also be more careful."

Gu Liang agreed, "Don't run around for nothing."

Siqing picked up her chopsticks and smiled, "Nobody cares about me now, I'm happy."

Gu Liang smiled and said, "It's against you."

Siqing said: "Who am I to rebel against? I can't, I want to live a few more years." After speaking, he asked Wu Zhenying, "When you passed by that day, someone eavesdropped on my meeting with Sun Pingfu, and that person followed me all the time. Sun Pingfu's?"

Wu Zhenying thought for a while, "I feel like following you."

Siqing said: "That's good, it doesn't matter if you follow me, but if you follow Sun Pingfu, it will be a bit troublesome."

Gu Heng said: "Why is it okay to follow you?"

Siqing said: "There are too many people watching me, and the lice don't itch..." After speaking, seeing Wu Zhenying and Fu Linchuan looking at her, she smiled again, "I am sure no one is following me here today, I have checked carefully .”

Gu Heng asked: "Why is the situation in Jiangnan so bad?"

Si Qing said: "Some people have serious internal strife, I guess Yao Yuantu will not like Shen Yuanxi's pressure on him. When Sun Pingfu returned to Beijing, Shen Yuanxi and Sister Xuan Bin made great efforts."

Wu Zhenying said: "That's right, Xuan Bin said that this General Sun rescued Yuanxi on the Chuanhu defense line."

Gu Heng didn't take it seriously, "Why did he come back to die?"

Si Qing shrugged and said: "Loyal minister and good general - I don't understand, I told him to run, but he still doesn't listen, what can I do?"

"You tell him to hurry..." Gu Heng said, "I finally know why Zheng Yiqin can't understand you." After he finished speaking, he realized that he had said something wrong, and Fu Linchuan and Wu Zhenying looked up at him at the same time.

Si Qing said: "I'm not gold or silver, so I don't need everyone to please me. Zheng Yiqin used to get along with the old man... our old man didn't get along. It's not surprising that he doesn't like me."

This seemed to be the first time that Siqing mentioned her biological father Ye Xiufeng in front of Fu Linchuan and Wu Zhenying at the same time. Her tone was sad and her words were disrespectful. Obviously, she still had a deep prejudice against the Ye family.
