Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

"Seeing the dragons without a leader, good luck."

Prince Zhongshun, who led the team back to the capital, soon learned of the current situation in the capital after meeting the left-behind officials who greeted him outside the city.

Involuntarily, he came up with this line from "Yi".

Originally, all parties in the capital were looking forward to Chen Qinzhi's return to preside over the overall situation.

But the problem is, Chen Qinzhi is still recuperating in Daming Mansion!
The emperor has died, and the first and second ministers of the cabinet have all fallen ill.

Baiguan, who had no backbone, was a little at a loss for a while.

At this time, they all thought of Prince Zhongshun.

In the current court, he is the prince with the highest status.

The most important thing at present is the enthronement of the new emperor and the funeral of the Daxing emperor.

These are all involved in the palace, and it is inconvenient for foreign ministers.

So there was no need for Prince Zhongshun to say anything, countless people asked him to preside over the overall situation.

After all, Prince Zhongshun led the team along the way, so it is only logical that he continues to host the team now.

Soon, all the officials reached a consensus, and Prince Zhongshun led everyone to send Emperor Daxing into the city and welcome the new king to the throne.

Arriving outside the Tai Chi Hall, many ministers stood on both sides.

At the front is Prince Zhongshun, and the left and right sides are divided into honorable civil servants.

On the left are four kings and eight princes, Yongchang son-in-law and other nobles arranged according to rank.

On the right are two empty cabinets, leading six ministers, ministers and other civil officials.

The rest of the officials also stood solemnly.

In addition, there are more than 100 Long Jinwei who came back alive, guarding the coffin of Emperor Jingshun.

The families who came back have all returned home.

Only the officials in white clothes followed along, for fear of missing the important event of the new emperor's ascension to the throne.

The civil and military officials in the court are all pondering the impact of the new emperor's ascension in their hearts at this time.

This time, it is undoubtedly the founding line headed by the four kings and eight princes, who are the most optimistic.

Originally, once the Supreme Emperor died, Emperor Jingshun would probably deal with them.

Now that Emperor Jingshun is dead, the new emperor can only be the son of Concubine Jia.

Since the prince is young, the help of these old relatives is naturally indispensable.

Most of them are optimistic that the founding line can continue to be rich for several generations.

The civil servants in the court are the most pessimistic.

The emperor of the Chongxin New Party died, and the first and second assistants also fell.

When the new emperor takes the throne, the cabinet will definitely be reshuffled.

Without support, will the new party continue its original glory?
It would be great if Zhang Songyue and Chen Qinzhi were still there, at least they could talk.

But now?

Many people looked around, and finally all their eyes focused on Li Shouzhong...

"Emperor Daxing was assassinated, and the whole country regretted it! But as the saying goes: 'A country cannot be without a king for a day', today the king will come to the palace to see you, please witness!"

Prince Zhongshun expressed grief, and said again:

"After the king enters, I will tell my empress to ask the new king to ascend the throne, so that I can legitimately arrange the funeral of the emperor Daxing."

All the officials said in unison: "Thank you, my lord!"

At this moment, Feng Yibo came out and said solemnly:
"My lord, why don't I accompany you for a walk?"

"Oh?"

Prince Zhongshun's eyes flashed, and he squinted and said:
"In the palace, how can you enter and exit at will?"

At this time Feng Yibo stepped forward, catching Prince Zhongshun a little by surprise, but he couldn't figure out what he meant for a while.

"If the prince goes there by himself, it will inevitably disturb the empress and His Highness."

But Feng Yibo explained:

"The servant was lucky enough to save the empress once in Iron Net Mountain, and the family is old relatives with the empress's family. If I see the servant, the empress should also feel at ease."

"That is indeed more appropriate."

The Lord Shaoguo is suspicious, and the dragons have no leader.

This is a godsend opportunity for Prince Zhongshun.

Originally, he was still a little worried, and his plan was a bit ruined.

Even if it succeeds, there will be no small backlash.

However, in order to deal with Emperor Jingshun, he didn't dare to make extra arrangements in the capital,

I'm afraid that if there is a slight omission, it will fall short.

Now, even God is helping him.

As long as you enter the palace, the throne is right in front of you.

The biggest difficulty of Prince Zhongshun's plan is to kill Emperor Jingshun.

Therefore, almost all of his energy was spent on this assassination.

And when Emperor Jingshun died, he only had to return home with his mourning.

No matter how simple and rude he knocked on the palace and killed the prince, he would be the only heir left in the royal family.

No matter how unwilling the princes in the court are, they have no choice.

You have to admit it even if you pinch your nose.

As for the rebound, that is also something after he ascended to the pole.

But now that there is no leader in the court, it is a good time for him to start "the old affairs of Xuanwumen".

Even if something goes wrong and there is no leader in the court, he can easily suppress the audience.

"Please send a message on behalf of the king, that the king and General Feng are asking to see the empress on behalf of the officials."

"My lord, wait a moment."

Outside the Taiji Palace, Prince Zhongshun led Feng Yibo to knock on the palace gate, waiting for the summons from inside.

Prior to this, the empress dowager and the empress dowager were ill successively.

The Supreme Emperor took a step first, and the Empress Dowager was not far from the deadline.

Now I only rely on soup and medicine to hang on every day, and I am groggy for most of the day.

In addition, the prince is young and cannot do without his mother.

Yuan Chuncai was left in the palace to take care of the old and young couple.

It is precisely because of this that he did not go to the funeral for the Supreme Emperor and escaped the catastrophe.

Hearing that Prince Zhongshun knocked on the palace on behalf of all the officials, Yuan Chun knew that he was here to persuade him to enter.

My son is going to be emperor,

For her, this is something to be happy about.

But when he heard that Feng Yibo had also come, he felt uneasy for a while.

She pondered for a while before ordering someone to pass him in.

When they received the summons, they were led one by one by the servants and went to Fengzao Palace.

"General Feng, do you want to witness it again?"

It stands to reason that one cannot speak casually on the way into the palace.

But as Prince Zhongshun, naturally no one would dare to take care of him.

Hearing such a question, Feng Yibo smiled and said:
"Isn't this following the prince and playing with the dragon?"

This is a bit vague.

I don't know, I think he is talking about the contribution of Conglong who accompanied Prince Zhongshun and persuaded the little prince to ascend to the throne.

Prince Zhongshun heard it, but thought he was talking about the contribution of Conglong who followed him to kill the little prince.

At the moment, he is completely at ease.

The two followed the servants around and around, and finally arrived outside Fengzao Palace.

The servant went in first to report, and let the two in after a while.

Prince Zhongshun is about to succeed in ascending the throne, so he is inevitably a little excited.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his mentality, and stepped into the palace gate.

Feng Yibo followed calmly.

Entering the inner hall, the two saw a screen in the middle.

"I've seen my lady!"

"waived."

After the two parties greeted each other, Prince Zhongshun ordered:
"You go down first, the king has something to say to the empress."

This is against the rules.

When the servants heard this, they naturally hesitated.

"Go."

Yuan Chun behind the screen also gave orders at this time.

Now that the emperor is dead, she is the only one who has an heir. It is already a consensus in the palace to become the master of the harem.

Naturally, the servant did not dare to disobey her words.

After all the servants went down, Yuan Chun said again:
"My lord is the brother of Emperor Daxing. General Feng has saved my life. Speaking of which, he is still my brother-in-law, and he is also his own. If you have anything to say, you can just say it."

She thought that the two of them had something to ask for each other, or there was a secret confession from Emperor Daxing, so she couldn't speak directly.

Unexpectedly, Prince Zhongshun did not respond to her, but smiled at Feng Yibo:
"It seems that it is really right to bring you here, and save me a lot of talking."

If he came here by himself, he would inevitably have to think of a way to distract the servant.

But Yuan Chun and his uncle had to avoid suspicion, so it was unlikely to give him face.

The reason for such cooperation is largely due to Feng Yibo's face.

Having said that, Prince Zhongshun untied the hemp rope with filial piety around his waist.

However, he was not in a hurry to act, but looked at Feng Yibo again, and said with a half-smile:

"Since that's the case, how about you do it?"

This is an opportunity for Feng Yibo to show off, and it is also a way to completely tie Donghai County to death.

At the same time, if the rebound is too large afterwards, the possibility of letting him take the blame is not ruled out.

"you?"

Yuan Chun heard something was wrong, but he still couldn't believe it.

How can it be?

It's fine if it's Prince Zhongshun, how could Feng Lang deal with his mother and son?
Behind the screen, she stood up with the child in her arms.

At this time, only Feng Yibo's voice sounded:

"My lord, wait a moment, I have something to say."

As he spoke, he took out the short gun that had been loaded with ammunition.

Prince Zhongshun was taken aback for a moment, then remembered the allusion of this thing, laughed and said:
"At this time, could it be that you still have an elegant mood and want to play a song for them?"

Feng Yibo was stunned for a moment, and also thought of his nonsense last time, so he nodded and said:
"That's exactly what I mean, after all, I want to see you off!"

It doesn't matter who to send off to!

Prince Zhongshun didn't think much about it, but nodded and said:
"The sound of mourning in a small country, it is appropriate to see off the prince who is about to ascend the throne."

Feng Yibo stepped forward at this moment, walked around to the side of the screen, and glanced at Yuan Chun and the little prince.

Especially the little prince in Yuan Chun's arms.

If you look closely, the child's eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to his.

Could it be his kind?

Yuan Chun looked at Feng Yibo in disbelief, pleading in his eyes.

"Feng..."

She hesitated, she didn't expect to see Feng Lang again like this.

The little prince in his arms looked at the stranger curiously.

But I don't know why it's a little kind.

He even stretched out his little hand towards Feng Yibo, as if he wanted to touch it.

"Don't be afraid, just plug your ears for a while."

Feng Yibo smiled at the two of them, and said a word of comfort.

Seeing that although Yuan Chun hesitated, he obediently put the little prince's head on his chest, and covered his little ears with his other hand.

Feng Yibo nodded, and turned to Prince Zhongshun.

He held the blunderbuss in one hand, pointed behind Prince Zhongshun with the other, and said:
"My lord, who is behind you?"

Prince Zhongshun was waiting to hear the news of Xiaoguo's funeral, and he turned his head reflexively when he heard the words.

But found nothing.

At this time, I only heard a "stab" sound from behind, and turned around in doubt.

Immediately afterwards, there was another "stab".

This time, it was accompanied by a loud bang!

For a moment, the flames flashed and the smoke filled the air.

The short gun has been modified several times, and the success rate of firing has increased a lot.

Under normal circumstances, it can be activated once, and occasionally only two friction activations are required.

This made Feng Yibo feel dissatisfied with his luck.

"you!"

The smoke dissipated, and Prince Zhongshun didn't realize what happened.

He stared blankly at Feng Yibo, but suddenly felt that some parts of his body seemed to be leaking.

"Tsk tsk!"

Feng Yibo had already walked over at this time, stretched out his finger and tapped his forehead lightly.

With a sound of "Boom!", the corpse fell straight backwards, and blood gushed out from everywhere.

Prince Zhongshun had several bullet holes in his face, and he looked like he was dying.

He really didn't even think about it until he died, that he would die under the "Sound of Mourning in a Small Country".

Feng Yibo went up to caress his eyelids, and murmured:
"It's a pity that your 'Song Taizong' met my 'Lu Buwei'."

Although Yuan Chun was not sent to the palace by him, the child is very likely to be his.

It is not an exaggeration for Feng Yibo to say that he is "Lu Buwei".

As he spoke, he wiped the stained blood on his filial piety, saw the bullet hole on Prince Zhongshun's head, and sighed:
"I didn't want to disfigure you, it's so disgraceful."

He was not a sneak attack, but wanted to retain the appearance of Prince Zhongshun.

For this reason, he deliberately lowered the muzzle of his gun and did not choose to shoot his head.

It's a pity that luck is really bad, and it took only two times to inspire success.

"what!"

Yuan Chun heard the voice and had already come around from behind the screen.

Prince Zhongshun cried out in shock as soon as he saw the tragic situation, and hurriedly covered his mouth.

Then he thought of the child again, quickly covered the little guy's eyes, and hugged him back behind the screen.

"Feng..."

She hesitated for a moment, then realized that there were no outsiders, so she changed her words:

"Feng Lang, what's going on here?"

In fact, she had somewhat recollected it by now.

Prince Zhongshun obviously colluded with Feng Yibo, and wanted to take advantage of Emperor Jingshun's death and kill his mother and son to usurp the throne.

It's a pity that he doesn't know the relationship between his mother and son and Feng Yibo.

Is it...

Did Feng Lang participate in it deliberately, in order to save his mother and child at a critical moment?
still is……

Yuan Chun was thinking wildly, so Feng Yibo said:

"You should have seen that Prince Zhongshun wanted to kill your mother and son to usurp the throne, and His Majesty also sent someone to assassinate him."

At this time, he walked around the screen and pinched the little prince's face with his left hand.

After all, there was still blood on his right hand.

The little prince was a little annoyed immediately, and complained to Yuan Chun in a childish voice:
"Mother, he hit me, you punish him!"

Prince Zhongshun brought Feng Yibo to kill their mother and son, and they just escaped danger.

Now I heard that Emperor Jingshun was also killed by Prince Zhongshun.

Is Prince Zhongshun crazy?
The combination of several things made Yuan Chun's brain almost shut down.

Seeing that his mother didn't respond, the little prince even pushed her.

Only then did Yuan Chun come back to his senses, and said in a somewhat complicated way:
"What should our mother and son do now? You killed Prince Zhongshun, what should you do? Or..."

Speaking of this, she suddenly said with some expectation:

"We leave the palace now, is there still time?"

At the beginning, the two fled in Iron Net Mountain, and they had a romantic relationship.

Feng Yibo said he was willing to take responsibility, and he also asked her if he would follow her anonymously.

For the sake of her family, she chose to give up.

But every day after returning to the palace, it was such a torment.

Even she has been resisting to serve Emperor Jingshun again.

Now that their mother and child are in trouble, Feng Yibo fell from the sky again.

Yuan Chun thought that he, like himself, had not forgotten each other.

This time I must have come to take my mother and son away.

Unfortunately, Feng Yibo was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and said with a wry smile:
"At the beginning you didn't want to go with me, but now you can be the Queen Mother with peace of mind."

Yuan Chun's heart sank, and the anticipation froze on his face.

"There's not much time, I'll make a long story short, but you must remember what I said."

Feng Yibo didn't have time and nonsense, so he had to race against time to arrange the future.

What he said next also directly brought Yuan Chun back to reality from his love for children.

"Otherwise, both Rongning and I will suffer."
