"...So it turns out that Long Live suppressed Marquis Anqing's rebellion because of the sixth princess?" Zhen Shiniang sighed after hearing the end, "So after the sixth princess gets married, the queen will die?"

The queens of the past dynasties were usually demoted to concubines or sent to the cold palace, but once the queen was deposed, the sixth princess lost her status as a direct princess.

In order to ensure her stable position in Qi State, the queen can only die, not abolish.

Even the old lady was surprised that Zhen Shiniang's reaction was so quick.

First, Prime Minister Cao died, then Shen Zhongqing beheaded important ministers, and then a large number of officials were demoted. The news came out one by one like an earthquake. She didn't expect that there was a coup in the palace, and she didn't even think about why Wansui didn't kill him. Marquis An Qing, Zhen Shiniang was able to guess Wan Sui's intentions from these few words, moreover, she also guessed his subsequent actions!

There was also a hint of surprise in Xiao Yu's eyes, and then he was replaced by praise. He nodded, "Because of the rebellion being suppressed, Wansui had no choice but to lower the general." With a sigh, "It is said that it is Long live for the princess to get married. Cold-blooded and ruthless, but who knows how much he loves this daughter..." For the sake of his daughter, he actually gritted his teeth and tolerated the father-in-law who wanted to take over his country. Since ancient times, no king has been able to do so.

"General Shen has been demoted?" Mrs. Xiao sat up straight in surprise, "Didn't you say that you only reprimanded him and fined him half a year's salary?"

"In the end, he killed the important officials in the court, and the punishment was too light to bet on Youyou's mouth. The imperial decree came down within a day or two..." Xiao Yu looked at Zhen Shiniang, "Don't worry. The general is just a general. The third grade has no less real power, and it is also in charge of the Fenggu camp, and the compensation in terms of salary, Long Live will also be allocated to the general in the form of military funds."

What does he have to do with her being a senior official?

She can only serve him according to his wishes, as long as he can allocate the funds for the ancestral house on a monthly basis.

Seeing Xiao Yu deliberately explaining this to herself, Zhen Shiniang was a little amused, but she didn't answer, and changed the subject without a trace.

The old lady tried to persuade her to stay.Thinking that the left and right magpies knew that she would definitely come to Zhongtang Mansion, Zhen Shiniang stayed for another day, and left for Wutong Town on the nineteenth day of the first lunar month.

When Shen Zhongqing returned to the General's Mansion, the old lady scolded Zhen Shiniang from the beginning, "...a woman who doesn't come home at night. How can there be any woman's virtue!" The tone was filled with righteous indignation, "It wasn't me I found out early in the morning that she hadn't returned to the mansion, so I called Hong Liao to ask, I didn't know that she had already returned to Wutong Town, she left without even saying hello, and came as soon as she said she wanted to. What did she think of the general's mansion!" talking.The old lady trembled with anger and slapped the table three times.

She actually left overnight?

Shen Zhongqing was secretly surprised.

That night, he originally planned to take Zhen Shiniang to worship Cao Xiangye early the next morning, and then find an imperial doctor to see her illness, so he told her that he would go back early in the morning, but he lost two elders in a row. Wansui summoned important ministers to reorganize the cabinet overnight, planning to divide Anqinghou's forces.He couldn't get away at all.

Thinking about it again, he deliberately asked Rongsheng to bring someone back to the mansion to protect her and go to the Xiang's mansion to pay homage.Hearing from Rong Sheng that she had already returned to Wutong Town, although he was disappointed, he didn't think much about it, and with a lot of things at hand, he soon forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, she actually left overnight!

how come?

If it was possible five years ago, now that she is calm and demure, how could she do such a reckless thing?

This thought flashed by, Shen Zhongqing suddenly thought of the fact that she didn't want to share the bed with him that night, his face flushed red, and then turned black again.

He is not a pervert, this stupid woman!

After staying up for two days and two nights, his eyes were already covered with red threads, and now the veins on his forehead popped up, and he suddenly felt a ferocious feeling when he looked at it, which shocked the old lady, and she rushed to her tongue to continue to insult and slander Zhen Shiniang swallowed her words abruptly.

"...Madam has her own opinion in everything. It was like this five years ago. It's not the first time you know about it. Don't be angry." Zhong Qing glanced, "The general hasn't rested for two days."

The old lady snorted and reached out to take the teacup.

"She has lived in the country for a long time, and she has forgotten the rules. Mother should not be as knowledgeable as her. She is so angry that she is very angry." Shen Zhongqing was inexplicably irritable in his heart, but he couldn't sit still any longer, and after speaking patiently, he stood up Come on, "Mom, let's rest first, I'll go wash up." Shen Zhongqing didn't close his eyes for two nights, at this moment, Shen Zhongqing wished he could just lay down and take a nap right away.

He was so angry that he even spoke for that bitch!

The hand of the old lady holding the tea was shaking.

However, he was guilty of being a thief, thinking that Zhen Shiniang was kicked out after all, and now that Shen Zhongqing had no doubts, it would be smooth, but she couldn't push her too hard.As long as Zhen Shiniang doesn't stay this time, she will find a few beauties and send them to Haoranju in a few days, and she will coax Shen Zhongqing into agreeing to leave.

She is not in a hurry, take this matter slowly.

Thinking of this, the old lady waved her hand, "You go." There was still some uncontrollable anger in her impatient tone.

Shen Zhongqing felt powerless in his heart.

Stepping out the door, a gust of cold wind hit directly, causing Shen Zhongqing to tremble coldly. He straightened up and strode towards the gate of the courtyard, when his feet suddenly stopped:

The Marquis of Anqing conspired to rebel. On the night of Shangyuan Festival, Gu Fan, the admiral of the Nine Gates, sealed off all the city gates early in the morning, and the defenders could not even fly out. It was not because he had prepared in advance and transferred [-] elite soldiers in advance. Hiding in the city, he never expected to be able to transfer a soldier that night.

Zhen Shiniang, how did she get out of the city!

Thinking of the fact that there were people from Gu Qin everywhere in the capital that night, Shen Zhongqing felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.

"General..." Seeing Shen Zhongqing staring blankly at the bare sycamore tree in front of him in a daze, Rong Sheng let out a low cry.

"Go..." Shen Zhongqing came back to his senses, "Contact Ji Huaifeng quickly and ask if Madam has returned to Wutong Town safely."

……

Chu Xinyi changed into a gold-inlaid multicolored tapestry back, and sat gracefully in front of the mahogany carved bronze mirror. Chunhong was brushing her hair, smelling the faint fragrance emanating from her body, and sighed repeatedly. "...It smells really good. The things in the inner palace are just unusual. Putting half a bucket of flower petals in the ordinary bath is not enough fragrance. This time, only a small drop will fill the room with fragrance."

"...Don't look at the small size of this perfume bottle, but it was made by the famous master perfumer Bai Su, and there is nowhere to buy it for 1000 taels of silver in the market." Chu Xinyi's tone was somewhat proud.

Nanyue paid tribute to a batch of newly developed fragrance liquid, Long Live rewarded the concubines in the palace, Concubine Shen specially sent two bottles to his mother and elder brother, and Shen Zhongqing rewarded her and the young lady.Thinking of the way the other four aunts looked at her, Chu Xinyi's eyes and brows were full of complacency.

"There is a fragrance without fumigation, and this is the first time I have seen it." Chun Hong enviously said, "The smell is so natural and light." She lowered her head and sniffed Chu Xinyi's neck, "It's like the aunt's body. The general will love it tonight."

The fourteenth day of the first lunar month is Chu Xinyi's day.Because Zhen Shiniang came, Shen Zhongqing didn't come, and she didn't come back for two consecutive days. She came back here on the first day tonight, and she would definitely come here, so Chu Xinyi specially used the imperial fragrance liquid, and listened to Chunhong's words. .A blush appeared on her cheeks, "Pee..." She took a deep breath. "Who cares about him coming!"

Chunhong covered her mouth and giggled.

After drying her hair, Chun Hong had just tied up a beauty bun when Chun Lan knocked on the door and came in.

"...Where's the general?" Chunhong asked Chu Xinyi as she put a plum blossom Diancui on.

"What?" Seeing Chunlan's expression was wrong, Chu Xinyi turned her head.

"The general returned to Haoranju after he came out of the Yangxinyuan..." Chunlan carefully looked at Chu Xinyi's expression, "Hong Liao said that the general fell asleep after the meal was useless. He was just woken up by Rong Sheng, and he hurriedly went out in a hurry."

"Didn't say anything?" Seeing Chu Xinyi's expression changed.Chunhong asked.

"...All the maids in the room were sent out by Rong Sheng, and Hong Sang Hong Liao didn't know what was going on." Chunlan shook her head, "I heard Hong Liao said that after hearing Rong Sheng's report, the general smashed me with one punch. Broke the coffee table."

"Maybe something happened in the palace again." Seeing that Chu Xinyi's expression was not good, Chunhong comforted her.

Chu Xinyi yanked out the freshly inserted Plum Blossom Diancui, and fell hard to the ground.

……

"What..." was reviewing the memorial, Wan Sui raised his head in disbelief, "Shen Zhongqing dispatched troops?"

"Yes." Zhu An kowtowed in response, "The secret dish that I planted in Fenggu camp used flying pigeons to deliver the report. General Shen returned to Fenggu camp early this morning and mobilized five thousand elite soldiers to go straight to the capital... ..."

"What is he going to do?" Long live's face turned slightly pale.

"I don't know..."

"Pass to Admiral Li Wei of the Nine Gates!"

"Yes..." Eunuch Fu responded, and winked at the little eunuch, who walked away.

"Long live..." Zhu An's voice hesitated.

"What else?" Wanzai's voice was full of irritability

"...I heard that Admiral Li quietly sealed off the city gates last night."

Remembering that Li Wei was Shen Zhongqing's former subordinate, Long Live was shocked, and he stood up abruptly, "...does he want to rebel!" He slapped the dragon table with his palm, and his five spread fingers trembled uncontrollably.

Marquis Anqing plotted to rebel, he relied on Shen Zhongqing, and now Shen Zhongqing was going to rebel, who could protect him?

A forced palace just happened, and now the guards of the entire Forbidden City are in the hands of Shen Zhongqing!

The news came too suddenly and too fast, Rao couldn't match his emotions, Wan Sui also changed his face at this time.

The eunuchs and maids on both sides turned pale and kept silent.

The hat was buttoned so big that no one dared to guess, and Zhu An was afraid to respond.

After walking back and forth on the ground a few times, Wan Sui suddenly stopped, and told Zhu An, "You personally bring the guards to pass Admiral Li to see me, if he dares to resist..." Narrowing his eyes slightly, he said word by word, "Shoot or kill!"

Zhu An shivered, kowtowed in answer, got up and walked out quickly.

"It is said that Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen have entered the palace!"

"Elder Xuan Zhengge, Xiao Zhongtang entered the palace..."

……

After uttering a few verbal instructions, Long Live let out a sigh of relief.

"What exactly does Shen Zhongqing want to do?" Pacing around the ground, Wan Sui couldn't believe that the upright and loyal Shen Zhongqing would suddenly rebel.

However, he secretly dispatched troops and closed the city secretly. If he didn't want to rebel, what was he doing? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
