Chapter 267
After sending Yixing away, Qin Zhao couldn't sit still.

Uncle and Princess Jinyang naturally had to ask. After changing his clothes, Qin Zhao went to the study in the front yard first.Sure enough, Qin Huaiyu was discussing with Jinyang there.

The result of the discussion is just to wait for the news, but the Sanshengju must be guarded no matter what, and Qin Huaiyong and Yunhe cannot be allowed to add to the chaos at this time.In fact, Juli Jinyang in the three provinces has been sending the secret guards of the palace to watch, but it just turned from darkness to light.

And Qin Huaiyu is the Secretary of the Ministry of War, and Anxi's war is chaotic, so he can't be idle as the Minister of the Ministry of War, and he has to go to the palace. I'm afraid His Majesty will answer, and whether he will send troops to support him, and if he sends troops, who will lead them, and which generals will be arranged. You have to come up with a charter.

In addition, because of Qin Huaiyong's marriage to Yunhe, there is also an inexplicable relationship between Wangfu and Anxi who are side by side. At this time, should Qin Huaiyu avoid suspicion?

As soon as this question came up, Jin Yang frowned and thought for a while, and said: "My lord, just go into the palace to see what the father means. You should do what you should do, what you should say, or say it. Then Put on an attitude of avoiding suspicion, and the rest depends on what the emperor wants. On Anxi's side, since we have taken precautions, Azhe knows it well, and now that he has arrived in Beiting, it is If it's more troublesome, it won't make the Murong family go against the sky. It's nothing to worry about. What I'm worried about is the palace. I'm afraid that this part will not be safe. The prince should have something to worry about. If he comes back at night Sooner, the dukes of Yue and Lu should also go there."

Qin Huaiyu agreed, changed into court clothes and went out.

Just after leaving the study, I met Qin Zhao coming in.I'm a little surprised.

It's just that Qin Zhe didn't hide the little things Qin Zhao did in Anxi. Qin Huaiyu knew about it. Now that the troubles in Anxi came out, his niece also pushed her hands. After thinking about it, she said, "Your aunt is in the study. If you have anything to say, talk to your aunt, uncle is in a hurry to enter the palace right now. You must know about Anxi's matter, don't worry, your elder brother will deal with it on his own, and it won't affect our family in the end."

Qin Zhao saluted and watched Qin Huaiyu leave the courtyard.

She was not worried that the Qin family would be involved in this turmoil. After all, Anxi was too far away, and Beiting had a single-minded attitude towards the court. Besides, the real power of Beiting was not in the hands of the Geshu clan, but in the hands of Qin Zhe. If the Geshu family wanted to seek stability, they would not have the idea of ​​fishing in troubled waters, but should do their best to assist Qin Zhe to make peace in Anxi.What's more, Beiping Mansion, which is in a triangular relationship with Beiting Dufu Mansion and Anxi Duhu Mansion, is no longer completely controlled by Qin Huaiyong. Even if the three towns of Beiping do not help Qin Zhe, they will at least be neutral and will not follow Anxi made trouble.What's more, the current Jiedushi of Beiping Prefecture is not a brainless person, he will only do this when he is out of his mind to hang out with Anxi Murong's family.What's more, most of his family members are in the capital. Even if he has only been in charge of Beiping for three or four years and cannot control the entire Beiping dispatch, he will never stand opposite Qin Zhe and the court.

As long as Qin Zhe can calm the chaos in the west, the little in-law relationship between the Qin family and the Murong family will not affect the side-by-side palace.

What Qin Zhao thought was how to take advantage of this turmoil to completely clean up Qin Huaiyong and Yunhe.To avenge her mother and Qin Zhe's biological mother.

"Why are you here?" Jin Yang was sitting on the couch thinking about sending someone to report to the Duke of Yue and the Duke of Lu, when he saw Qin Zhao who was wearing a go-out outfit, he couldn't help asking.

Qin Zhao saluted, and said, "I heard that Anxi raised troops to rebel, brother probably just arrived in Beiting, second brother-in-law is protecting second sister and sister-in-law, I'm afraid he's still on the way, Ah Zhao was worried, so he came over to ask .I don’t know what’s going on.”

Jin Yang then told what he knew.

Only then did Qin Zhao know the exact date of Anxi's rise of troops and the details in the letter.

It turned out that the Murong clan of Anxi had colluded with the Uighurs and the rest of the Turks. Taking advantage of Qin Zhe's absence, his powerful generals were also in the capital, and began to attack Beiting. Beiting had already lost two cities. King Ge Shu’s younger brother, Ge Shu Hao, was temporarily entrusted with the post of Jiedu Envoy of the Three Armies during Qin Zhe’s entry into Beijing, mobilizing a large army to counterattack. Not only did he regain the lost city, but the Anxi army he fought had to retreat back to Anxi, the border between the two prefectures. territory.

Seeing that Beiting was difficult to shake, the Murong family turned to attack Beiping first, but within three days, Beiping had lost You and Liang prefectures.

The Jiedu envoy of Beiping asked the Beiting army for help, but Ge Shuhao did not move.

Hearing that the situation was not too bad, Qin Zhao was relieved.

It's just that I have some doubts about Ge Shuhao's refusal to support Beiping.

Although she didn't understand military affairs, she didn't say anything.

Instead, he was worried about Lu Yue, Changning and Li Sixuan: "I don't know what happened to the second sister and sister-in-law."

Jin Yang said with a smile: "There's no need to worry about that. Before they go out, your uncle has already arranged the arrangement. It will be fine. Are you going out?"

Qin Zhao responded, "Yes, Cousin Shan had an accident in Anxi and was killed by Murong's men. Although I don't believe that someone like Cousin Shan would perish at the hands of Murong, after all, there is still no news. I want to go out Ask, see if there is any news from the caravan. Although the court battle report is detailed, the information obtained from the caravan may be more detailed. Be at ease."

Jin Yang said quickly: "Then you can go there. I was going to send people to the mansions of the Duke of Yue and the Duke of Lu. If you drop by, you can also go there."

But Qin Zhao said: "Auntie, it's better to send two other groups of people. If I go, it will delay time on the way back."

Jin Yang thought so, so he sent Qin Zhao out, and went according to his own schedule.

Qin Zhao went to Xinchangfang, but the concierge didn't notify him, so he rushed to welcome people in.

Because of her coming, Ah Shu greeted her out of the study door, saw Qin Zhao, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "I was about to send someone to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come, but I also heard that Anxi news?"

Qin Zhao nodded: "Brother Ah Shu also received the news?"

Ah Shu said: "The news was just sent."

While talking, he showed the letter to Qin Zhao.

The content of the letter has not yet been sent to the Ministry of War in detail. Qin Zhao thought that the news from the caravan must have been sent out earlier than the battle report, otherwise he would not have received it right away. After all, the speed of official news delivery Much faster.So it's normal that the content of this letter is not as detailed as what she knew from Jin Yang.

She was not concerned with the war itself.

Then he threw away the letter and asked Ah Shu: "Leave aside the war, I am worried about Ah Tie's side. This incident broke out earlier than our original plan, and I am extremely worried about Ah Tie's response. If the shop It's not worth the loss. But Liangzhou is too close to Anxi. If the Murong family wants to expand their front line, Liangzhou must not be bypassed. This was originally expected. Now that Liangzhou is lost, I am worried about Zhujiazhuang It will be affected by the war. Do you know the situation at home?"

Even though Yunrui's family has moved to a Zhuangzi outside the capital, she has lived in Zhujiazhuang for many years, after all, it is a place she cares about in her heart, not to mention there are so many people she values ​​there.

Ah Shu could only sigh after hearing this: "Ah Tie only sent someone to send the letter about the war, but didn't mention anything else. I was also very worried. But since we have dealt with it in advance, the situation will not be too serious. Bad. Besides, even if we think that the disaster of war will not erupt so soon, what can we do? We can’t ask everyone in Zhuangzi to move out, and the impact will be great. Doesn’t it make people suspicious if it happens for no reason?”

Although Qin Zhao knew that what he said was reasonable, he was still annoyed.

Ah Shu explained: "It's not your fault, so why bother thinking about it? You did the arrangement in advance because you had news, it's better than not knowing anything. It's not your fault. Rebellion and suffering After all, it is the common people. No one can do anything about being born there.”

Qin Zhao could only sigh.

So she comforted herself, what Ah Shu said was right, but fortunately she asked Ah Tie to take precautions in advance, it was better than not knowing anything and thinking of a solution when the time came.

Right now, she only hoped that Zhujiazhuang would be spared from the flames of war. It would be the best result if no one lost their lives.As for the shop business, even if it is lost, there is still a time for a comeback. If a person dies, there will be nothing left.

What's more, Ah Tie and Bajie are most worried, they are in Anxi.

If the Murong family realizes that the news of Anxi's rebellion was released by them, it will be worrying.

Qin Zhaodao: "If you get news about Ah Tie and Ba Jie, no matter how late it is, you must find a way to send it to me. I will ask Qin He to come to you and wait for the news later."

Ah Shu agreed, and comforted Qin Zhao a few more words.

Qin Zhao bid farewell and returned home.

I thought in my heart that my grandfather Chen Laoguo and Grandpa Luo might have arrived at the palace and were discussing.

She also went back to listen.

I don't want to go back to the mansion, Chen Laogong and Luo Laogong have finished talking with Jinyang, Luo Laogong returns home, Chen Laogong is called into the palace to discuss matters.

Qin Zhao snorted.I can only smile wryly.

Now that they are in the capital, they may not be able to do much.Just look at how the court is doing.

Qin Zhao went straight back to Fucui Pavilion.

Standing in front of the window on the third floor, looking in the direction of Sanxingju, frowning, thinking about how to make Qin Huaiyong and Yunhe completely involved in this war.

The best way to trip Qin Huaiyong is to obtain evidence of his collusion with Anxi Murong.Moreover, this evidence cannot be revealed by Qin Zhe himself, but the court must know that this evidence was obtained by Qin Zhe, and he did not hide it privately because Qin Huaiyong was his father, but he also cared about the relationship between father and son. He didn't express his feelings and didn't show up in person, so as not to damage Qin Zhe's reputation, but also let him take credit for this matter.

She believed that Qin Zhe would also think of this.

While worrying, more bad news came.

This time, he did not engage in the war in the northwest, but came from the palace.

The queen died, and His Majesty was heartbroken.The prince acted in defense of Emperor Li's forced palace and put Emperor Li under house arrest.

The news came out that the queen had been dead for two days.

This is like a bolt from the blue in Jinyang.It was her own mother who died, her own father who was put under house arrest, and her own brother who rebelled.

No matter how capable Jinyang was, he was stunned for a moment.

However, Jin Yang is not a weak person. He quickly summoned the guards in the mansion to strengthen inspections, making sure that no disturbances occurred in the mansion. He also mobilized all the guards from the Princess Mansion to the palace to take charge of the periphery. If anyone attacks the mansion, they must resist.The crown prince forced the palace, this chaos, people like them, will bear the brunt of it.

After Jin Yang's arrangement, he worried about Qin Huaiyu and others who were still in the palace.

But I don't know what happened to the Duke's Mansion of Yue State and the Duke's Lu Mansion.

Qin Zhao then said: "You don't have to worry too much, Auntie. Cousin Jingnian is His Majesty's guard, and he has been working in the palace all along, so he must be by His Majesty's side. The crown prince is forcing the palace, and His Majesty should not be in danger now. Furthermore, even though there are people who should be summoned by the crown prince, Auntie, don’t forget that it is the uncle of the Chen family who is in charge of the Jinwu Guard. As long as the Chen family does not rebel and His Majesty does not fall into the hands of the Crown Prince, His Majesty will not hand down the order for a day. The crown prince cannot submit a summons letter. Moreover, although grandfather and uncle are banned in the palace, Grandpa Luo, the Duke of Yue, is outside the city. The old man has always had prestige in the army, and the Chen family uncle will definitely consult with him. Besides, there is also the strength of the You family in Langya County. If Ah Zhao expects it to be true, the Langya army should also mobilize troops at this time , and headed to the capital for rescue. As long as the uncle of the Chen family can withstand the attack of the prince's garrison outside the city to attack Chang'an, with Langya County to rescue him, Chang'an City will be safe, Chang'an City will be safe, and the crisis in the palace will be safe. It can be solved. What we have to do now is to wait."

After listening to her analysis, Jin Yang thought that this was indeed the case.

But I have not received any news from the outside, and I am also anxious.

Qin Zhao then said: "There are double guards from the palace of the king and the princess' mansion. Azhao is not worried. How about Azhao take a few people outside to investigate? Although the city is chaotic now, but there are Jinwu guards after all, so it must not be too late. What a mess."

Jinyang naturally does not allow it.If something happened to Qin Zhao at this time and Qin Zhe came back, she would really have no way to explain it.

Qin Zhao knew her worry, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I am all martial arts, and I was taught by Grandpa Luo personally. You just don't believe me, don't you trust Grandpa Luo? Besides, I won't go alone, I will I will bring both Qin Ming and Qin Lei with me. Even if I encounter a rebellious army, I can’t escape if I can’t fight it? If I want to escape, there are really few people who can stop me.”

When Jin Yang thought about it, this was the only way to go now.Had to let her go.

Qin Zhao changed into a fresh outfit, and took Qin Ming and Qin Lei out the door.

When I didn't want to leave Gaohua Lane, I heard the sound of killing.

Qin Zhao thought it was the rebellious army and the Jinwu Guard who were fighting, so he sneaked over with the two of them, wanting to see what happened.

As a result, after a closer look, there were no members of the Jinwu Guard among the people fighting between the two sides.Can't help but be surprised.Taking a closer look at the person headed by one of the parties, he couldn't help but be amused.

The one on the horse who was slashing at people with a big knife was wearing armor, but looking at the face on the helmet, it looked like a woman, and judging by his age, he was not young anymore.Who is it if it's not the British government's old lady who is so angry when she scolds people that no one dares to provoke them lightly?

Qin Zhao jumped from the wall, jumped to the side of the old lady, and killed several people who were surrounding the old lady.

This old lady was surnamed Hong. Qin Zhao picked out a rebel soldier on a horse, snatched the horse, and smiled at old lady Hong with his teeth bared: "Old lady, Fuling is here to help you."

Mrs. Hong suddenly came by someone, who was holding a knife and wanted to cut it down. Seeing that a girl in black was laughing at her, she couldn't help laughing, and scolded: "Little girl, it's so chaotic outside, don't stay at home." Now, what are you doing outside? Wait for me to kill this rebellious army, and then send you back to your residence."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Qin Zhao and just killed the rebel army.

Because Qin Zhao and the other three surrounded her to help the old man, Mrs. Hong was much more relaxed.A chaotic army was wiped out from time to time, and the two had time to talk.

Qin Zhaodao: "There are guards from two palaces in the palace, don't worry, I was thinking about Duke Lu's and Yue's palaces, so I came out to have a look. I don't want to meet the old lady here. Why are you going out now?"

Mrs. Hong smiled and said: "You are quite courageous, and your aunt is relieved that you will come out. I also thought that the city is unstable now, so you don't have to worry about it. If something happens, His Highness will definitely protect the princess mansion." Those transferred to the palace will be guarded by the guards of the two palaces. It is not easy to attack from outside. The Chen family does not have to worry about it. But your Grandpa Luo has always been indifferent. That boy Jingnian and his father are both in the palace. I am a little worried , so I ordered a few people to take a look.”

Qin Zhao felt warm in his heart.

Now I can still think about others at this moment, I'm afraid there are not many.Although the relationship between these few families is good, it is not bad to be able to protect themselves at the moment.It is also powerless to want to help others.This old lady is chivalrous, no wonder she became a lady of the state from a singing girl, and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty had to obey.

"Ah Zhaoyuan is about to go to the Duke of Yue's mansion, and he happens to be with the old lady."

Mrs. Hong smiled and agreed.

The two rode forward, followed by guards.

From time to time, I went to the mansion of the State of Yue.

I saw that the outside of the mansion was also in a mess, obviously someone had attacked at night.

After knocking on the door to announce, most of the people in the Luo family knew Qin Zhao. Although Mrs. Hong was there, it was not the time to be particular, so he opened the small corner door and let the group of people in.

Old Duke Luo was not in the mansion, but Qin Zhao expected it.

Although Mrs. Wei was afraid, she was still calm.Luo Jinghua guarded Mrs. Wei, but did not see the two aunts and Luo Jingyun.

Seeing Mrs. Hong coming, Mrs. Wei also stepped forward to salute.

Mrs. Hong said: "Since you are all right, I am relieved. I wonder if there are enough guards in the mansion? If not, the 50 people I brought will stay. Brother Luo is not in the mansion, and Jingnian and Shizi are not allowed in the palace. Come out, and you are alone with the children, which is also worrying."

Luo Jinghua said: "I will take care of my mother, don't worry, old lady. Now that the capital is in turmoil, Uncle Chen is leading the Jinwu Guards. He has to defend the city and also calm down the chaos in the city. I'm afraid he won't take care of us. The family has to protect itself, how can we keep the old lady's people? Mother and Jinghua are very grateful for the old lady to take the risk to visit her."

Mrs. Hong waved her hand: "Don't be polite to me. Since I brought people out, the British government will not miss them. Did your grandfather go to the Jinwu Guard?"

Luo Jinghua replied: "Exactly. The old lady and the princess came from outside. How is the situation outside now?"

Mrs. Hong said: "It was a mess all night, but it got better during the day. I came over to see your family in a hurry, so I don't know the rest. You don't have to think about anything else, just take care of your mother and protect the people in this house." That's it."

Now is not the time to talk. Knowing that the Yue State Mansion is safe, Mrs. Hong left behind guards, and after a few words, she left the Yue State Mansion with Qin Zhao.

Because Mrs. Hong was going back to the British government, how could Qin Zhao rest assured that she would go alone.If her old man falls into the hands of the rebels, it's not for fun.Although Mrs. Hong declined, Qin Zhao still insisted on sending her back home.Not to mention the friendship between the two families, as long as Mrs. Hong is her sister-in-law's direct grandmother, she can't leave the old man alone.
