Chapter 901
Peng Zhi?Peng Zhi is the grandson of the Fourth Prince Puxian, I didn't issue a decree to summon him, why did he come here, and brought so many cavalry, rushing here, like entering no one's land.Could it be that he asked with a sullen face, "Peng Zhi, bold slave, who asked you to bring troops here?"

Peng Zhi had already got off his horse and knelt on the ground. When he heard the emperor's question, he calmly replied: "If you want to return to the emperor, I have ordered the fourth master to lead the troops to escort you."

Guan Xuqing was even more surprised: "What, what, I just named the fourth child as the Minister of the Guards, and he dispatched troops here. How did the fourth child give you an order?"

When the emperor asked this question, Peng Zhi heard it, yo!Too bad, the emperor doesn't know about this?He hastily pulled out a piece of paper from the boot leaf, and presented it with both hands.Guan Xuqing motioned for Luo Ming to take it, but Peng Zhi was arguing: "Long live, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, the emperor's guard Guo Tong sent someone to deliver this fourth master's letter to the minister. It is said that the guards around the emperor are all Transferred away, ask the minister to bring more soldiers."

This matter is even more strange, why is Guo Tong involved?Guan Xuqing asked calmly, "Well, how many officers and soldiers did you bring?"

"Back to Long Live Lord, there are 470 elite garrison troops here, all of them are brought here. Uh, Your Majesty, is it wrong for this slave to do so?"

Before Guan Xuqing could speak, the third prince Puhua said: "Peng Zhi, don't talk nonsense. Guo Tong has already been transferred away, why would he send someone to deliver a letter to you? To be honest, did someone give you a letter? Son."

"Prince Chengjun, you can't say that. Guo Tong didn't leave. I saw him there just now. Besides, what does this have to do with others?"

Guan Xuqing's face became more and more gloomy, why, that unruly Guo Tong has not left yet, it seems that there is a lot to be said about it.He thought so in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face: "Peng Zhi, don't make wild guesses. The fourth prince is the minister who leads the guards, but I just asked you casually. I originally planned to call you to guard the villa, but I only called you. You are alone, maybe they have passed the wrong order. Now, the defense of the villa has been handed over to the 17th Division stationed in Chengde, and their troops will arrive soon. There are soldiers brought by the capital here, as well as the original garrison of the villa. Going to your army, there are too many people and too many people, if there is a misunderstanding, it is not for fun. You stay and wait, and let your soldiers go back the same way immediately, do you understand?"

"Cha, I obey the order."

As soon as Peng Zhigang left, Guan Xuqing turned around and whipped the horse fiercely. The snow leopard turned its hooves and galloped away.Seeing that the emperor's expression was not good, everyone dared not ask questions, so they hurriedly followed.However, just halfway there, Guan Xuqing stopped again, pointed to a small independent palace and asked, "What is this place?"

Wang Shang quickly replied: "Back to Master, this place is called Jiedeju, and it is a place where Master prepares for a temporary rest while hunting."

Guan Xuqing looked around and saw that there was only a lonely small palace in Jiede, and there were no other buildings around it. It was very empty, but it had a wide view, so he got off his horse and said, "Okay, I'll live here tonight."

The little eunuch guarding the palace room here never imagined that the emperor would come here at this time, and he wanted to live here, so he came out to pick him up, cleaned the warm pavilion, and was busy burning the kang, following the emperor all the time. Feng couldn't help it: "Is the emperor not going back to Yanbo Zhishuangzhai?"

Guan Xuqing replied, asking for a basin of hot water, and while scalding his feet, he asked, "Have the troops brought by Peng Zhi been ordered?"

Zaifeng hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, this matter has been done very smoothly. Peng Zhi's soldiers have already returned. Your Majesty forgives my ministers and brothers for talking too much. The place where I live is too small, and there is no preparation for taking over. The house is cold. The kang is cold, the master wants to live here, I'm afraid he'll catch a cold."

Guan Xuqing still didn't answer his words: "Ask someone to clean up the outhouse too. You guys don't sleep tonight, you are all here on business. Pass the decree, let the princes and Guo Tong come to see me immediately. Luo Ming, You are more than loyal, but you are not careful enough to think about issues, compared to Zhao Bingjun's meticulousness, you are far behind."

Luo Ming was shocked when he heard this.He was about to answer, but he heard a rough voice from outside: "Slave Guo Tong has ordered to see you." After speaking, before the emperor could answer, he lifted the curtain and came in.

Seeing that Guo Tong still looked like this savage, Guan Xuqing was furious all over his heart: "Bold slave, kneel down. Luo Ming, do a body search and hand over his saber."

Guo Tong knelt down, and Luo Ming handed over his waist knife again.However, he still looks like he is not afraid of the sky and the earth.Guan Xuqing sneered: "Hmph, it's really difficult to raise a villain. Guo Tong, your grandfather and father have made military exploits for the empire, but it can be passed down to your generation. Why are you so useless? No king? I asked You, there was a decree to let you go yesterday, why are you still here? What important things do you have to do?"

"Your Majesty, it's not that the slave is unwilling to leave, it's because he can't figure it out. The slave has been the emperor's bodyguard since he was a child, and he has worked hard without merit. I don't know who offended the emperor these few days, but the emperor wants to vent his anger on the slave."

As soon as he said this, he was stopped by Pu Hua: "Guo Tong, are you still not convinced? If you are rude in front of the emperor, it is a capital offense! You said, you can still pee in the Qianqing Palace, do you know what the Qianqing Palace is? ?”

This Guo Tong is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The princes have done many illegal and prohibited things, and he knows a lot.The emperor reprimanded him, but he didn't dare to openly resist, but the third prince reprimanded him, but he didn't listen: "Your Majesty Cheng, you know that guards are not allowed to leave their posts without authorization. There is no toilet in Qianqing Palace. Third Master, what are you calling?" Where do I go to pee? You said that one of us has no rules and that one has no law, but if someone does something that is out of order and lawless, if the slave speaks out, I'm afraid it will scare people to death!"

When Pu Hua heard this, he was stupefied, he didn't know who Guo Tong had caught, if he got anxious and this slave got out in front of the emperor, that would be fine.Zaifeng was careful, and immediately saw the change in Puhua's expression.I thought to myself, these two days, the emperor's place has been chaotic enough, and Guo Tong can't let Guo Tong make trouble again, so he asked: "Guo Tong, Peng Zhi led troops into the villa, saying that you sent someone to send a message for him to come. Yes, is there such a thing?"

When Guo Tong heard this, he became angry. He forgot the rules, jumped up suddenly, and cursed: "Which bastard framed me behind my back? Prince Jin, tell me, I will kill him!" .Long live Lord Mingcha, if this happens, I will be cut into pieces!"

Guan Xuqing listened gloomyly. The sentence Guo Tong said just now, "There are no rules, there is no law of the king, and it can scare people to death" made him feel quite meaningful.It seems that there is a play in this play!He suddenly waved his hand and said: "Battelle, take Guo Tong down and put him in the guard's tent to wait for orders."

Battelle escorted Guo Tong down, and an eunuch came in and responded: "Your Majesty, the princes are all here, waiting for orders outside."

Guan Xuqing slowly picked up a cup of hot tea and said: "Decree, let them kneel in the snow outside, cool off for a while, clear their minds, and see me again."

At this time, outside the hall, the wind was blowing fiercely, and snowflakes were flying in the air. On the snowy ground in the compound, there were ten princes kneeling side by side.Everyone's heart feels like there are fifteen buckets fetching water, up and down, and it's hard to be at peace; everyone's body is cold and shivering because of the snowstorm all over the sky.They are uncomfortable here, and the emperor, who is sitting on the heated kang with charcoal fire in the house, is not easy either.Over the years, he has experienced countless ups and downs, turbulent waves, but he never felt timid, never panicked, and never wavered in his belief in victory.But this time, he was a little worried. He felt a loneliness that he had never felt before, a fear that he had never felt before, and a bone-chilling cold that he had never felt before.

Let's just talk about what happened tonight, Guan Xuqing faintly felt a harbinger of a storm coming.Peng Zhi took the elite cavalry and broke into the summer resort privately, but he said that he was ordered by the fourth prince to dispatch troops. Peng Zhi also said that the letter was sent by Guo Tong. Why did he go to deliver the letter for the prince?Besides, Peng Zhi is the baby brother of the fourth child, and if Pu Xian wanted to transfer Peng Zhi to the villa, Peng Zhi would not only refuse to evade, but would also act upon hearing the wind, so there was no need to go round and round to call him.When Guo Tong was interrogated just now, the boy's furious air was not fake.So, could it be that someone wants to use Peng Zhi's hands to create trouble, cause chaos, and put the fourth child to death?Well, if that's the case, it wouldn't be the only one who pushed the wall down and framed and framed the fourth child!But thinking about it the other way around, Peng Zhi led troops into the village after all.Could it be that because Puxian did something shameful, he was afraid that I would punish him, in order to avoid disaster, and also to control the summer resort militarily, he launched a mutiny, seized power by force, and conspired to usurp the throne, so that Peng Zhi's Where did the soldiers come from?Could it be that the fourth brother transferred his troops and planted them on Guo Tong in turn?

If it wasn't about the fourth child, who would it be?Could it be Pu Hui!But he has a straightforward personality, he has no right to deploy troops, and he will not do things to deceive the king and father.But during the hunt yesterday, he contributed the most, but he didn't get a reward, and he was reprimanded by me. Would he be dissatisfied and take the opportunity to make trouble?There is also the old fifth Pu Jun, everyone knows that he and Pu Hui have walked recently, and the wolf fight arranged for me today obviously has the meaning of persuasion.What role did he play in this turmoil?Alas, these sons are too confusing to figure out. The troubles broke out from my own family, from my most trusted and beloved sons, it made me sad and scared me too much.

However, Guan Xuqing was not a person who could be easily defeated. The greater the difficulty, the greater his determination. This incident also aroused his determination to completely rectify the prince.He ascended the throne at the age of four and has been emperor for more than 30 years. He is not only resourceful and far-sighted, but also shrewd and decisive.Tonight, he suddenly decided not to live in the palace, but to temporarily live in this small hall with open surroundings; he sent all the princes, and made them kneel in the snow; It was also reported that he was detained in the tent of the imperial guards; Peng Zhi's soldiers were driven back, but Peng Zhi was left alone, just in case.Capture the thief first and capture the king first, as long as none of the dozen or so princes are imprisoned here, there will be no trouble outside.
