After transmigrating into the villain's daughter, I lie down and win

Chapter 758 The whole family is a rebel (42)

The Beidi Palace, which had been silent for several months, suddenly became lively, causing the neighbors to look curious.

Is there something big happening in the Northland Palace?
Is it possible that His Majesty was merciful and finally allowed this old general who had been fighting all his life to return to his fief to reunite with his family?

But anyone who knows a little bit about the current situation will know that this is completely impossible!

Your Majesty is old, and the princes are unable to support their great cause. Considering your Majesty's fear of the King of the North, I am afraid that he will not let the King of the North leave Chang'an alive no matter what.

At this time, the North King returned to the house with his little granddaughter in his arms, only to realize that he had missed someone from Jin Yan's words.

Xiao Quji.

The grandson who was always favored by him because of his frailty.

The King of the North Land came back again and again, but never let go of Jin Yan in his arms. When their grandfather and grandson arrived at the door, Zhong Xing was holding the dying Xiao Quji to go in.

As their eyes met, the King of the North couldn't help but be overjoyed, "A Xing is here too?"

It turns out that not only one was missing, but two.

Zhong Xing's mouth twitched slightly, showing a rather helpless look, "You can only see your little granddaughter, where can you see me and Qu Ji!"

Knowing that he was in the wrong, the King of the North Land coughed and said with a smile: "I am getting old, and my eyesight is no longer useful... He is getting rid of the disease. Send him in quickly."

Then he ordered: "Come, go and ask for the doctor."

However, the guards of the Northland Prince's Palace were clinging to them, and the only one who could still stay by the Northland King's side was a cook who only knew how to cook.

Seeing the cook struggling to run, the expressions of Zhong Xing and Jin Yan changed slightly.

No wonder no news has reached the Northland in the past two months. It turns out that there is no one available for the eldest father.

Zhong Xing was silent and took Xiao Quji off the carriage. Looking at Xiao Quji's pale face, a flash of sadness flashed in the eyes of the King of the North.

He gritted his teeth and remained silent for a long time before asking Jin Yan softly, "Xiao Yan'er, how long have you been walking on the road? Are you tired?"

Jin Yan answered truthfully and said he was not tired.

Looking at Jin Yan's thin cheeks, the Northern King knew that she was just comforting him.

The one-and-a-half-month trip, the long journey, the wind and the rain, would have made him feel exhausted, let alone two children who were already frail and sick and couldn't help but take medicine.

No wonder His Majesty executed everyone around him and completely cut him off from the outside world. It turned out that he felt that his "proton" was old and useless, and he was afraid that he would no longer be able to hold Xiao Ji hostage after his death, so he treated the child I thought about it.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty.

It is true that these two children are Xiao Sui's biological grandsons, but they are also His Majesty's biological grandsons. His Majesty's blood is also flowing in their bodies. How can Your Majesty bear it?

Not long after, while waiting for the doctor, the King of the North learned about what happened on the streets of Chang'an.

The messengers in the palace must be sending messages to the palace all the time. His Majesty knew that both children were sick, but still let them enter the palace to see them. It was really cruel.

Zhong Xing praised Jin Yan a few more times, saying that she was calm in the face of danger and was thoughtful. She refused the request to enter the palace and would not offend the emperor.

The King of the North also looked proud as he listened, but behind that proud and proud face, there was unspeakable chilling and sadness.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and as soon as the doctor invited by the cook came in, someone announced that His Majesty had sent a royal doctor.

A sarcastic look flashed across Zhong Xing's face, but the Beidi King remained expressionless and just asked the imperial doctor to quickly diagnose and treat Xiao Quji.

The imperial doctor came with a mission, and he had to report it to the emperor later, so he naturally didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest.

After some diagnosis, he prescribed a prescription and left his apprentice to cook the medicine in the palace while he returned to the palace to resume his life.

As soon as he left, Zhong Xing went to find a private doctor with the prescription.

Seeing this, the King of the North shook his head helplessly. His grandson has been more thoughtful than others since he was a child, and his hatred for the royal family is as deep as the sea. But when the emperor wants to kill people, he often resorts to bloodless methods, so where is the need to poison a sick and weak proton?
After a while, Zhong Xing came back.

At this time, Jin Yan, who was sleepy in the arms of the King of the North, said: "Cousin, the prescription is right."

The King of the North couldn't help but be surprised, "Yan still knows medical skills?"

Zhong Xing smiled and said proudly: "You don't know that Yan's talent in medicine is even envied by Gongsun Qiu."

This is the first time the King of the North has heard of this matter.

Thinking of the paper, printing, plows, and many other things that were beneficial to people's livelihood made by Jin Yan, the King of the North also had a guess in his mind.

Xiao Ji was afraid that he was hiding something from him!
After placing Jin Yan in bed and letting the maid watch her sleep, the King of the North called Zhong Xing to the study and asked Zhong Xing to tell him everything that had happened recently.

After a while, the North King said with an angry expression: "What did you say? The grain depot was burned down?"

Zhong Xing nodded, "When we walked outside the city, we saw billowing smoke burning in the city. That direction was where the grain depot was."

Moreover, he guessed that Buyi and An would definitely not leave the city to see each other off, but after he deliberately delayed the time, they still didn't arrive, so something big must have happened in the city.

The King of the North was so angry that he punched the table.

"Father, we saw many strange sights along the way."

Zhong Xing said while looking at the King of the North.

The sullen expression on the King of the North's face remained, and he said coldly: "You have always been fearless of heaven and earth. You just say whatever you want. It's outrageous to behave like this."

Zhong Xing coughed and said: "From Beidi to Chang'an, wherever we pass, the fields are either deserted or the people working in the fields are mostly old, frail and skinny old men and women and children with yellow faces and skinny muscles. It is rare to see young and vigorous people." Strong man."

The fundamental reason is that all mature men were conscripted into service to build palaces and mausoleums for the emperor.

But the city of Chang'an is filled with gorgeous and tall palaces, each with thousands of rooms. Even if the emperor changes rooms every day, he won't be able to live in them all.

The King of the North didn't speak.

Zhong Xing continued: "While resting on the road, I asked a few old farmers that their son had been recruited to serve in the army at the beginning of the year and has not returned home. Since last year, the government has levied taxes several times under various names. Now, The new grain was not yet full, but there was no food left at home, so his wife and eldest grandson starved to death. "

Such a situation does not exist at all in the Northland.

But outside the Northland, in Chang'an under the emperor's feet, so many fields were barren, and so many people were starving, freezing, and dying miserably.

When Zhong Xing opened his mouth again to talk about several serious injustices he heard along the way, the King of the North couldn't bear it and scolded coldly: "Bastard, you talk so much in roundabout ways, do you really think I don't know what you are thinking?"

This kid has been rebellious since he was a child. What he is thinking is most obvious.

Zhong Xing chuckled, then put away his smile, showing a cold and biting look. He said word by word: "So what if you know? You won't help me rebel..."

Before the King of Beidi picked up the cane beside him, Zhong Xing ran away and stopped again when he reached the door.

The King of the North Land thought he was going to admit his mistake, so he temporarily put down his cane.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Xing said: "Uncle, it's impossible for you not to have your own power in Chang'an, right? Why don't you write me a list..."

The King of the North was furious, chasing and cursing:

"The bastard is looking for death!"

"It's the other way around!"

"Someone, stop that bastard for me."

"I have to break his legs today!"
