Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

A few days later, Defang and Song Xie were chatting in the garden of Nanqing Palace, when the guard Chongming rushed over in a panic, "My lord, my lord, something has happened"

Defang turned her head to see Chongming's panicked expression and asked, "Why are you so panicked?"

Chongming panted and pointed at the gate, "My lord, a team of people came outside, saying that they were ordered to arrest the general."

Defang was startled, "What? General?" Defang turned to look at Song Xie, who frowned and stood up slowly

"Grandpa, what's going on?" Defang was very anxious

Song Xie shook his head, then walked out, Defang stepped forward to stop Song Xie, "Grandpa, tell me quickly, what happened? Why did the emperor order you to be arrested?"

Song Xie looked at Defang, "Defang, don't bother with this matter" and walked towards the gate after speaking, Defang followed and came to the gate of Nanqing Palace, and saw a group of soldiers, the leading general came up The former said, "Your Majesty, the last general came here to apprehend General Xing Guogong Song Xie"

Defang walked down the steps, "Where is the edict?"

The general held up the imperial decree, and Defang opened it. As mentioned above, because of the case of Cao Bin, the adjutant who was imprisoned was frankly dissatisfied with the transfer of the imperial court. Rumors continued in the army, which led to the instability of the army. There was a change in the military situation. Someone proposed to bring troops into Beijing. Song Xie was an old friend of Cao Bin, and he made a statement to protect Cao Bin. All of his original positions also made a statement of his feelings. Rumors spread all of a sudden, which damaged the majesty of the emperor and threatened to shake the country. Therefore, he ordered the arrest of relevant generals such as Cao Bin and Song Xun, and handed them over to the Ministry of War for trial.

Defang closed the imperial decree, turned to look at Song Xie, and the general stepped forward, "My lord, I will bring Xing Guogong to justice at the end."

"Shut up! In front of the Nanqing Palace, who dares to move the Duke! Come!" Defang was very angry, and the gatekeeper of the Nanqing Palace came with guards and surrounded the generals holding the imperial edict.

"My lord!" Song Xi hurried forward, "Let them retreat!"

"Grandpa, this is obviously a villain's slander, this king will enter the palace to face the saint!"

"No!" Song Xie tightened his grip on Defang's wrist, "You are resisting the decree, don't you want your mother and Nanqing Palace to be unprotected?"

Defang was stunned, her eyes were wide open, and she was still panting rapidly because she was very angry.

Song Xie looked at De Fang and said, "My lord, you must not take care of this matter." Turning to Jia Jun, he said, "Let them all retreat."

Jiajun looks at Defang's "Prince"

Defang didn't say a word, Song Xie was very anxious, "My lord, should I let the old minister beg you?"

Defang looked at Song Xie with pain on his face, nodded after a long time, and said to Jiajun, "Back off"

Song Xie followed the people who came and went, Defang stood there watching for a long time, Concubine Di came out, saw Defang standing blankly, stepped forward to help him, "My lord, go back"

"What should I do? If the queen mother knows..." Defang shook her head

"Since this is the case, I can only try my best to comfort the queen mother. Now that there are many things in the court, the prince should not worry about it."

"How can this be so? Now that grandpa is arrested, General Cao is in prison, and treacherous ministers are in power, how can this king stand by and watch? No matter what, this king must find out who is behind the scenes and rescue grandfather and General Cao." Defang said angrily , and then turned back to the mansion, Concubine Di sighed, knowing that Defang could not be stopped, so she said to Jiajun, "Go and invite my brother to come here"

"Yes, ma'am..." Jia Jun rode forward. Princess Di's elder brother was named Shou Jie, the son of General Di Jixun. Ready to go to the frontier.
