The night was deep, and Qingyun still didn't rest, she sat quietly at the table, eyes slightly lowered, not knowing what she was thinking.

Mo Xuanjian frowned, one is because he loves his lover day and night toil, and the other is that there is a very ignorant person next to him who is sullen.

It's not that he didn't see Mo Xuan's frozen eyes, but Lou Haiyang just couldn't see that Mo Xuan stayed with the Ninth Princess as a possessor for a moment, and he was full of questions and couldn't get an answer. can't sleep.

"Princess Nine..."

"The last general (subordinate) sees the ninth princess (master)!"

Lou Haiyang was about to ask questions in his heart, when Situ Jingyu and Wu Ying walked in one after another, Qingyun raised his eyes and looked at the two of them: "Thank you for your hard work, how is the situation?"

"Back to the Ninth Princess" Situ Jingyu said respectfully: "As the Ninth Princess expected, Gong Yuanhao really went to the secret road. The last general led his army to wipe out a general and nine thousand soldiers, and released Gong Yuanhao, a general and a thousand soldiers." Soldiers leave."

Wu Ying then replied: "According to the master's order, Gong Yuanhao and the rebels have been forced back to Jiuyuan County, but during the period, a group of masked men of unknown origin suddenly appeared to protect Gong Yuanhao from evacuating. The Dust Palace is exactly the same, and in addition" took out a dark green token and presented it to Qingyun with both hands: "After the army expelled the rebels, the subordinates found a hundred men in black who were hiding in the dark, and originally wanted to capture them and ask them about their origins Unexpectedly, they committed suicide by taking poison. The subordinates only found this token from the leader of the man in black, but the subordinates were sure that they were from their own country and should be killers, because the thousands of rebels who stayed behind in the enemy camp It’s their one move that kills them.”

Taking a closer look at the token, there was nothing else except the word 'dream' engraved on the front, and the texture of the token was also very ordinary, Qing Yunxiu frowned.

Under whose order did those one hundred domestic killers appear on the battlefield, and why did they kill the thousands of rebels left behind? What is their purpose?

"It's the Absolute Dust Palace again!"

Lou Haiyang knew that Wu Ying was a dark guard with a strong ability to recognize people, so he raised his handsome eyebrows, but the four of them looked as if they had expected the appearance of the people from Juechen Palace, but he was the only one who seemed a little surprised. Can't help but secretly review whether I have become stupid?Still not enough concentration?

"Wu Ying, order to secretly investigate the capital month by month, especially the women in the palace whose names contain the word 'Meng', and then secretly monitor them, and deal with them after I return to Beijing."

Although it cannot be ruled out that some men's names will also have this word, Qingyun intuitively thinks that this person should be a woman, and she always has an indescribable feeling that the one hundred killers are probably targeting her of.

"Your subordinate obeys the order!" Wu Ying left immediately.

Looking at the clear and dignified Qingyun between his brows, Situ Jingyu thought for a while and asked, "Princess Nine, is the next step to attack the city or besiege Jiuyuan County?"

Lou Haiyang also looked at Qingyun in a blink of an eye. Duan Fanghong had asked this question before, but Princess Jiu only let the army rest and did not give any instructions.

"Just wait and see what happens." Seeing the puzzled and disapproved expressions of Situ Jingyu and Lou Haiyang, Qingyun understands that after this battle and her visit to Liyang County in person, the morale of our army is now at an all-time high. They all want to wipe out the rebels in one go so as to quell the civil strife as soon as possible.

only. . . . . .

Situ Jingyu raised his eyebrows: "The last general is stupid, so I ask Princess Nine to enlighten me!"

Looking at Situ Jingyu with furrowed eyebrows, Qing Yun took a sip of the hot tea Mo Xuan handed over, and then said quietly: "I understand your feelings, but don't forget that Gong Yuanhao is a hereditary The replacement is the prince of the dynasty, and he holds the gold medal from the previous emperor to avoid death, and he has saved his father's life. Even if he has committed a heinous crime of rebellion, if we do not handle it properly, the subjects will be misunderstood and even condemned. Therefore, they can only be captured alive and cannot be killed;

Also, it is not difficult to understand that Gong Yuanhao has a close relationship with Amu Gulang and Liang Guo in private, but it is unbelievable that the people of Juechen Palace would come forward to protect him. The assassination of Dust Palace, so Gong Yuanhao hated Juechen Palace no less than the royal family, so who ordered Juechen Palace to come here?What's the purpose of desperately protecting Gong Yuanhao back at the critical moment?

Also, don't you find it strange that Gong Yingjie didn't stay by Gong Yuanhao's side but went to the capital at this time? "

"What the Nine Princesses mean..." Situ Jingyu and Lou Haiyang were thoughtful.

"Gong Yuanhao is terminally ill, so there is nothing to worry about. What I want to know is the person behind him." Qingyun's eyes flashed with a sharp edge: "After a long time of peace and prosperity, some people have developed thoughts that they shouldn't have. Unfortunately, there has been no evidence to punish them. This time we might as well make a big fuss to see if anyone who is impatient will show his fox tail. It is best to completely wipe out those black apples. Wolf!"

Lou Haiyang pondered for a moment, then gave Qingyun a thumbs up, and praised without hesitation: "The Ninth Princess really has a plan, winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away!"

Looking down at the tea leaves that sink and float in the tea water, a trace of bitterness seems to be absent from the corner of Qingyun's lips.

If she hadn't had to, she would not have made such a bad move. After all, those soldiers and the people of Jiuyuan County were all citizens of Jin.

Gently holding the other catkin she placed under the table, Mo Xuan, who understood Qingyun's thoughts, comforted her silently.

Jiuyuan County.

Gong Yuanhao suddenly rebelled against the imperial court and ordered that no one should enter or leave Jiuyuan County. The people panicked.

Soon after hearing that the imperial army encircled Jiuyuan County, the people became more and more anxious. One feared that the imperial court would punish them as traitors and thieves, and the other feared that King Zhongwu would drag them to be buried with them in a desperate attempt, so every household closed their doors Not to mention, except for the patrolling soldiers, there was hardly a trace of pedestrians on the street, and the bustling and lively streets in the past now looked particularly solemn and desolate.

At this time, the atmosphere in Prince Zhongwu's mansion was extremely heavy and eerie.

As soon as he returned to the gate of the palace, Gong Yuanhao couldn't hold back the qi and blood in his body anymore, with blood spilling out of his mouth, he fell off his horse, and then fell into a coma, which shocked the whole palace into a mess.

Lei Fangfen ordered the guards to quickly invite Mrs. Gong and the prince's exclusive doctor, and at the same time carried Gong Yuanhao back to his room with several generals.

Not long after, Mrs. Gong brought four servant girls to Gong Yuanhao's room in a hurry.

But seeing that she is about 60 years old, her temples have a little gray hair, and there are few wrinkles on her well-maintained beautiful face. She is dressed in a silver vermilion fine cloud brocade dress embroidered with phoenix bamboo, which makes her more graceful and luxurious, but The deep and hearty eyes are shining with vicissitudes and shrewdness, making it difficult for people to get close.

Seeing Gong Yuanhao on the bed with his eyes closed and his pale face completely bloodless, although Mrs. Gong was worried, her eyes were deep and bottomless, and she stared at Lei Fangfen and the others in the blink of an eye, "What happened?" What?" His brows were frowned, and he was not angry.

Lei Fangfen truthfully told the whole story.

After hearing this, Mrs. Gong's eyes flickered for a moment, and a trace of bloodthirsty murderousness was fleeting. Seeing that the doctor had finished the diagnosis and treatment, she ordered Lei Fangfen and others to go down first to stabilize the army's morale and strengthen the defense. Come to report, and wait for the prince to wake up before proceeding to the next step.

"Old madam, do you want to send someone to investigate the whereabouts of the prince?" Lei Fangpeng knew that the prince is worried about the prince. If something happens to the prince, let alone the prince can't survive, then those people who are desperate to rebel against the court will become helpless. significance.

"You don't need to worry about this matter." Seeing the expressions of several people froze, Mrs. Gong suddenly realized that her words were a little too aggressive, so she slowed down and said, "My lady will arrange for someone to find out the whereabouts of the eldest son. You just need to do it." Just do your own thing.”

Only then did a few people feel relieved: "The last general obeys orders!"

Until it was confirmed that several people had left Gong Yuanhao's courtyard, Mrs. Gong asked the doctor in a blink of an eye, "How is the prince?"

"Hui Lao Furen" the doctor said respectfully: "My lord's sudden anger caused the attack of the old disease and led to coma. You just need to take a few pastes of decoction and you will be fine, but..."

"But what?"

The doctor said tremblingly: "The prince is too worried, I'm afraid he won't wake up for a while."

"Go down and make medicine."

After waving the doctor and servants to retreat, Mrs. Gong went to the bed and sat down, looking at her son who was unconscious and still frowning, as if he had dreamed of something sad and extremely restless, with love and worry in his eyes, But the tone that was deliberately lowered was cold and sharp: "No matter how serious your worries are, you must wake up immediately, otherwise you will wait for Hongtu's hegemony to go to waste, and you will wait for Yingjie's bones to disappear!"

However, Gong Yuanhao still closed his eyes tightly and remained silent.

Seeing this, the love and worry in Mrs. Gong's eyes instantly disappeared, replaced by disappointment and some kind of unexplained determination, and then she stood up and left without looking back.

For three days in a row, Gong Yuanhao showed no signs of waking up. Both the generals and the soldiers in the city were worried, but the people who didn't want to see the war resumed secretly prayed that King Zhongwu would never wake up, so that they would not be hurt. implicated.

In the past three days, Qingyun ordered the army to surround Jiuyuan County, but did not launch any action.

The two sides were deadlocked like this.

On the morning of the fifth day, Gong Yuanhao, who had been in a coma for a long time, slowly opened his eyes. Seeing his mother sitting by the bed, his dazed eyes gradually gathered together, and his voice that hadn't spoken for a few days became a little hoarse: "Mother, son! Made you worry."

"It's fine if you wake up." Mrs. Gong had a kind face and tears in her eyes.

"How long has your son been in a coma?" Gong Yuanhao frowned feeling his whole body was stiff.

"Four days."

"So what's the situation outside now?"

"The enemy army surrounds but does not attack."

"Is the Ninth Princess trying to trap us in the city?" Gong Yuanhao struggled to sit up: "Where is Yingjie? Where is Yingjie?"
