Chapter 422 May Be Chaotic!

The winter snow fell heavily, and the capital city was shrouded in a thick layer of haze because of the death of the eldest prince. Outside the capital city, the rebel army of King Yue was still raging. Fortunately, the army led by Jiang Cheng and Xu Junze had already joined the Lord Zhen Guo Lei Yi. Intercept the rebels to the south of the Qingjiang River, and start a three-sided encirclement and suppression mode to eliminate the rebels.

As soon as the twelfth lunar month entered, all the academies also entered the holiday mode one after another, but people did not have the joy of celebrating the new year. Everyone was worried that unpredictable things would happen, and even the number of refugees began to increase.

In the middle of the night, Lin Shuran hadn't fallen asleep due to physical reasons, and then heard Lingqin's voice, saying that Mei had just received the exact news that Dingyuan Hou Wei Qianjie was uniting with his former subordinates and the generals of the Sifang Army Camp, Seemingly intending to encircle the imperial city, the situation became uncontrollable.

Lin Shuran hurriedly called Honggu and told her these things. Unexpectedly, Honggu said that she already knew. In fact, because Lin Shuran's health was getting worse and worse, Honggu kept many things secret and told her outside The situation seems urgent, but in fact it is hidden in another world, just let her stay at home with peace of mind.

The capital is likely to be chaotic, how can Lin Shuran feel at ease, and she received a secret letter from Lei Yingying and Princess Qing early the next morning, asking her to protect the General's Mansion. The soldiers trapped the capital.

"Mother, is there something big going to happen in this city?" After the academy was on vacation, Xu Minghao and the others returned to the mansion. Perhaps the atmosphere around them was too different from usual, so they, the children, were also sensitive to the strangeness.

Lin Shuran became more and more afraid of the cold. She wrapped herself in thick fur. The three brothers Xu Mingzhou, Xu Minghao and Xu Mingxuan stood side by side in front of her. There were worries and doubts in the eyes of the three of them, as if they knew something. .

"Why do you say that?" Lin Shuran asked pretending to be puzzled.

At this time, Xu Mingzhou, the sixth son, took a step forward and said to Lin Shuran with a very serious expression: "Mother, I heard from some friends in Qiuhua Lane that there have been a lot more soldiers in the city recently, and it is not too late at night." It is safe and secure, every house is closed tightly, and even fewer people go out during the day.”

"My friends also said that they have noticed that something is wrong in various parts of the city recently. Officials coming in and out of the yamen of the Ministry of War are more frequent than before." Xu Minghao also told Lin Shuran what he knew. His friends were all scattered around. The little beggars all over the capital are more capable of listening to news and sensing danger than ordinary people.

Xu Mingxuan usually doesn't like to use his brain to think about these seemingly complicated things, but this time he said: "Mother, I suspect that someone in this capital is colluding with the King of Yue. They want to attack the imperial city from inside and outside. Let's You have to fight back first.”

"Us?" Lin Shuran looked at Xu Mingxuan in surprise, when did this kid speak so methodically.

Xu Mingxuan nodded with certainty, and then said: "Mother, according to the news from the friends of Sixth Brother and Seventh Brother, I think there are three places that need the most attention in the capital now, one is the Imperial Palace, one is Dingyuan Hou's Mansion, and the other is The Prime Minister's Mansion, these three places have obviously more personnel exchanges than before, my mother said that there must be demons when things go wrong, and these three places have had close contacts with those generals, which is very problematic!"

After listening to Xu Mingxuan's sound analysis, Lin Shuran was even more surprised. He really looked at him with admiration for three days. I didn't expect Xu Mingxuan to learn to judge these things at such a young age. I have to say that his conclusions are still very accurate. Now The three strangest places in the capital are the Imperial Palace, Dingyuan Hou's Mansion and Prime Minister's Mansion.

It stands to reason that Lin Shuran would know that Wei Qianjie, Marquis of Dingyuan, was in close contact with the Sifang military camp guarding the capital in private, so it is impossible for the far-sighted emperor Zhao You not to know, not to mention that she asked Mei to bring the news to Lei Zhanpeng, Now he is in charge of guarding the emperor at close quarters, but she also finds it strange that the emperor has not reacted when he knows that Wei Qianjie, Marquis of Dingyuan, has malicious intentions.

Then there is Chen Yanzhi, the prime minister, Lin Shuran also finds it very strange. When the crown prince was to be established, he stood with Wei Qianjie, Marquis of Dingyuan. After the abolition, even now he is closer to Yuan Chong, Minister of the Ministry of War, than Wei Qianjie, Marquis of Dingyuan.

Lin Shuran couldn't figure out what Prime Minister Chen was thinking. He married his daughter into the Hou's Mansion, and now he is all about fighting against the Hou's Mansion. In the current tense situation, he is getting closer to the people in the Ministry of War. Where is he standing? side? !

"Since you all feel that the capital will be uneasy recently, then stay at home and don't worry me, and help me take care of my younger brothers and sisters." Lin Shuran felt that she couldn't just sit at home and wait, which made her even more anxious. If something really happens, she must at least protect the people in this house.

"Mother, where are you going?" Xu Mingzhou and the three of them heard Lin Shuran's voice and hurriedly asked.

"I'm going back to the Taifu's mansion. I have to ask my father about some things!" At the critical moment, the person Lin Shuran could think of to help her solve her doubts was her father Lin Youxing. Her father Lin Youxing usually didn't like to participate in court battles. , but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know everything about the court, in fact, she thinks her father Lin Youxing can see through everything.

Therefore, Lin Shuran went to Taifu's mansion, and met her father Lin Youxing in the mansion. Before Wen Shangqing promised to hold a literary event, the imperial court sent her father Lin Youxing to help, although Wen Shangqing didn't like Lin Youxing too much , but the two of them cooperated tacitly.

The literary event has been held for a month, and everyone is very satisfied. Not only Wen Shangqing has accepted two disciples, but even Lin Youxing has made a group of literary friends, and the room is full of outstanding works from this literary event. There are calligraphy and paintings, as well as poems and songs. During this time, Lin Youxing has been working with these calligraphy and paintings at home. It seems that the ups and downs outside have nothing to do with him, and he doesn't care.

Lin Youxing met Lin Shuran in his study, and as soon as he saw her, he pulled her to appreciate the calligraphy and paintings he received at this literary event, and asked her to follow the comments to appreciate them.

Lin Shuran was not as leisurely and elegant as her father Lin Youxing at this time, she just glanced at him from a distance, and said to Lin Youxing whose eyes were still on the calligraphy and painting: "Father, the commotion outside is already so fierce? You really don't care?"

"What's the fuss? What's the fuss?" Lin Youxing didn't seem to know what Lin Shuran was talking about, then suddenly realized that he clapped his hands lightly, looked at Lin Shuran with a smile and said, "You mean the rebellion of King Yue of Qingzhou? Don't worry, with Marquis Wu'an, Uncle and Lord Zhen Guo here, the King of Yue won't be able to make a big storm, and if he can't pass the New Year, this rebellion will be put down!"

Lin Shuran looked at Lin Youxing incredulously, her father's tone was too sure?On what basis did he base his judgment? !Are you kidding me? !
