The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 356 Brother 050 Seven Days ([-])

In other words, since the riots in the capital three days ago, some quick-thinking officials in the court began to ask for leave for various reasons.

Take the Cui family as an example, except for Cui Ze, all the children have asked for leave to stay at home to guard the 'seriously ill' old man Cui Shouren.

As for why Cui Ze couldn't ask for leave?
The reason is even simpler, because he is the prime minister, as long as the sage does not speak, as long as he has no reason to stand the scrutiny, he cannot be absent from the court meeting without reason.

However, in the past few days, no matter what kind of chaos occurred in the city, the sage did not express his position, and without the permission of the sage, the important ministers in the court obediently went to the court on time and went to discuss the state affairs on time.

Of course, it was not the saint who presided over the meeting, but the prince.

As for why the sage did not attend the court meeting, the official reason is to train the crown prince. The actual reason is that people outside the palace don't know. In fact, this also gives the idlers an excuse to criticize.

The rumors in the market were even more unbearable, and some even speculated that the saint had passed away, and the empress kept the mourning secret in order to stabilize the situation.

After hearing these rumors, Xiao Nan secretly guessed that the rumors might be spread by King Wu to create public opinion for his next plan.

The topic is far away, let's get down to business, let's talk about Cui Ze.

Things have to start from today, today is the Great Court Meeting, civil and military officials discussed some government affairs under the auspices of the prince.

After the general meeting, there will be a small meeting, that is, the prime minister and other high-ranking officials gather to discuss matters. Under normal circumstances, saints will also attend.

Today, the crown prince who handles government affairs on behalf of the saint did not attend the small meeting of the ministers, but entrusted several ministers with full responsibility.

After the court, Cui Ze went to the meeting habitually, exchanged pleasantries with several colleagues, and then started to get down to business, discussing some important issues at the moment.

The development of the matter here is very normal, and there is no problem with the discussion. When the few people finished the small meeting and were about to report to the prince, they found that they could not go out. Suddenly, dozens of people in armor appeared outside the door. guards.

The leader of the team was a stranger, at least several of the princes had never met him in the palace.

Those guards were very polite to the husbands, but they just didn't allow them to leave the side hall where they were discussing matters.

He said it nicely, why the East Palace has entered the villain, for the safety of the few, please stay where you are and don't move around.

In fact, all the gentlemen knew that they were under house arrest.

And who is the person who put them under house arrest, they all know very well in their hearts, it is nothing more than the person who ordered people to break into the East Palace to assassinate the prince.

The princes were under house arrest in the imperial city. The people outside didn't know it for a while, but the servants of the various families waiting for their master outside the imperial city knew about it. Of course they didn't know the specific reason, they just knew that their master was trapped. In the imperial city.

Hearing the boy's report, Cui Youbo's legs went weak, he had already started conspiracy theories—oh no, no, Aye must have been captured by King Wu's men.

Immediately afterwards, Cui Youbo thought of the rumors that the prince had been assassinated, and became even more pessimistic about the current situation.

The crown prince was assassinated, then the princes were imprisoned, followed by the blockade of the main streets of the capital, and the closure of the nine gates... All these signs indicate that King Wu seems to have succeeded!

Although Xiao Nan was not so pessimistic, but when she heard that the princes were trapped in the imperial city, she was very flustered, and asked the boy: "You, you mean that the five princes are all trapped in the imperial city?"

She, her A Weng is now the head of the Five Prime Ministers, Zuo Pushe.

Seeing Xiao Nan's ugly face, the young man suddenly remembered that the lady of the princess was the granddaughter of Song Guogong, and that Xiao Gong seemed to be on the trapped list.

A look of pity flashed in his eyes, and the servant nodded.

Xiao Nan's heart sank. Although she knew that the crown prince was the final winner of the coup, a few officials lost their lives during this period.

Will her Aon? !

Well, even if the king of Wu would not kill a few people for a while in order to keep a few prime ministers to help him support his appearance, but A Weng is getting old, a few meals of hunger or a little anger are enough for the old man to bear ah.

When Xiao Nan thought of that old man with a big temper and a tough temper, she couldn't help worrying, for fear that something unexpected would happen when Ah Weng got angry.

Cui Youbo and Xiao Nan were both worried about their relatives, the husband and wife were not in the mood to chat, one went to Rongkang Hall to seek advice from his old husband, while the other went back to the inner study.

Sitting behind the desk, Xiao Nan took out the letterhead, quickly wrote a letter, then sealed it with a small bamboo tube, called Snow Lady, tied the bamboo tube to her feet, and let it go out.

This letter was sent to the princess mansion. A Weng had an accident, and Aye should know about it at this time. She wanted to ask Aye how to save people.

In the evening, Mrs. Xue came back and brought a letter from Concubine Xiao.

The content of the letter was very simple, Consort Xiao already knew about Wu Xiang's trap, and now he was trying every means to find out the news.

It's a pity that the palace gates between the imperial city and the palace city are also closed, and the eldest princess' cronies in the palace city can't hear the news outside the palace at all.

That is to say Prince Consort Xiao is working hard, but there is no result.

Xiao Nan sat in the study and thought for a long time, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he went into the Taoyuan, and caught Xiaoqing who was leisurely in the Taoyuan.

"Why, why, I'm going to rest soon, the master can't treat me like this, you, you are a bird abuser, do you know that?"

Xiaoqing was having a good time, when suddenly she was forcibly taken out of Taoyuan by her master, she immediately exploded, chattering non-stop.

Xiao Nan didn't have the heart to talk nonsense with it, and directly ordered: "Shut up!"

Although Xiaoqing is a parrot, she has lived in Taoyuan for several years, her intelligence has been developed, and she is very good at watching people.

Seeing Xiao Nan's bad tone at this moment, he was obviously really angry, shut his mouth quickly, and obediently stood on the desk, blinking his small black bean eyes flatteringly, waiting for the master to speak.

Seeing that it was honest, Xiao Nan asked in a low voice: "Now there is a task for you. If you complete it, you can continue to stay in Taoyuan in the future. If you fail, then play with my son!" "

When Xiaoqing heard this, she almost fell headlong on the desk.

Can't enter Taoyuan in the future?Want to play with that little devil?

This is killing me.

Xiaoqing fluttered her wings twice, and asked quickly: "What task? Don't worry, master, Xiaoqing will work hard to complete it even if she goes up the mountain of knives or goes down to the frying pan." She almost patted her chest with her wings.

Xiao Nan saw Xiao Qing being so upbeat, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "You go to the imperial city..."

King Wu's men guarded the streets leading to the imperial city. Humans might not be able to pass through them, but birds should be able to.

In terms of force value, Xiaoqing is definitely not Xue Niangzi's opponent, but in terms of cleverness, Xiaoqing can definitely beat Xue Niangzi eight blocks out.

"Hey, don't you just go to the imperial city to find an old man, don't worry, this matter is covered by me, Mr. Qinglang."

After listening to Xiao Nan's instructions, Xiaoqing raised her head vigorously and said confidently.

Xiao Nan slapped it on the head, "Don't be proud, it's never too late to be proud when you find someone and bring the word to you!"

Xiaoqing suddenly turned into a quail, nodding repeatedly, "En, don't worry, don't worry, I, I'm not proud!"

Xiao Nan described Ah Weng's appearance and clothes in detail, and repeatedly told Xiao Qing to pay attention to the guards on the street, so as not to be arrested.

Seeing Xiao Nan's seriousness, Xiaoqing knew that this matter was very important, and couldn't help being a little distracted, listening to Xiao Nan's words patiently.

After explaining, Xiao Nan took advantage of the night to throw Xiaoqing out, and watched it flap its wings and fly to the north where the imperial city is.

In the evening, Uncle Cui did not come back, but continued to stay in Rongkangju to discuss matters with his brothers.

Xiao Nan guarded the two children resting in the main dormitory, watching the two children obediently playing with flashcards on the kang, her thoughts couldn't help but drift away—today is only the first day, and this happened. There are many things, alas, I don't know what kind of disaster will happen in the next six days.

Xiao Nan sighed silently, she didn't want to use this matter to seek wealth and honor, she only wanted the family to be safe and happy, and only hoped that these chaotic incidents would pass away soon and the comfortable life of the past would resume as soon as possible.

In the early morning of the next day, the dawn drum sounded, and the gate of the square opened slowly, but there were no pedestrians on the street. The only thing that could be seen were those vicious armored guards.

The city gate was still closed, and the entire capital fell into an eerie silence.

After Xiao Nan got up, he finished getting acquainted with the two children full of thoughts, and then came to the main hall to prepare for dinner.

"Has Mr. Lang come back?"

Sitting on the main seat, looking at the empty seats around him, Xiao Nan turned to ask Yuzan.

Yuzan bowed and replied: "Mr. Lang is still in Rongkang Residence. Someone just came over to spread the word that he talked with several gentlemen until late at night last night. Choushi just fell asleep and hasn't woken up yet."

Xiao Nan nodded, "Understood, let's have dinner."

After hearing the words, several servant girls came in with food boxes and prepared meals for Xiao Nan and the two children.

Xiao Nan smiled and said to Lingxi and Changsheng, "Aye still has something to do, let's eat first."

Lingxi and Changsheng nodded obediently, one picked up the silver chopsticks, the other picked up the silver spoon, and the two siblings buried their heads in eating.

After eating, the maids served tea soup, and Xiao Nan took the two children to drink tea together.

Changsheng was too young to sit still, he just sat with A Niang for a while, then got up and pulled his pony carriage, and started running around on the map.

Lingxi is more sensible than her younger brother, and last night she saw that A Niang's expression was not right, but she was too young to help A Niang relieve her worries, so she thought about trying to be as good as possible, helping A Niang to look after her brother, so as to relieve A Niang's burden to some extent.

Thinking of this, Lingxi put down the teacup and ran aside to coax his younger brother.

Holding the teacup, Xiao Nan was still worried about Ah Weng in the imperial city, and Xiao Qing who hadn't returned all night.

Alas, I don't know if that foodie found Ah Weng, I hope it will be more reliable this time, so as not to delay the big event.

Just as he was thinking, Cui Youbo walked in, his expression a little excited and a little nervous.

Xiao Nan hurriedly asked: "Lang Jun, what's the news?"

Cui Youbo sat down next to Xiao Nan, and said in a low voice, "Someone just came to report that those rangers who entered the city a few days ago have come out again, and now they are fighting with those armored guards..."
