History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 239

For Chang Shi, this was just a common thing, and he reported it as usual. However, Xu Fengliang knew the inside story, and he couldn't care about anything else when he was shocked.This question almost made him paralyzed on the ground—shortly after he entered the palace, news reached Xu Sheng that after entering the palace, Xu Fengliang was taken over by the imperial guards who specialized in guarding the emperor. Dou Shi, Shen Shi and Xu Xi were nowhere to be seen.

In Xu Sheng's frightened state, when he heard the news, he was immediately terrified.Xu Lang, Chu Hanyi, and Lin Lang had previously engaged in such a house arrest drama of "serving the sick in the palace", and the matter of the emperor's investigation of the hidden lines in the palace was a certainty, Xu Sheng did not suspect him, and immediately used the lantern as an excuse to slip out.

According to the previous agreement between the father and son, Xu Fengliang didn't even have to think about where Xu Sheng would go when he slipped out of the mansion.

With a pale face, he slumped in the wide chair, frightened Dou Shi who came in behind him, and quickly asked, "What's wrong, my lord?"

"Sheng'er, he... went to find Zhu Chengyu." Xu Fengliang's world instantly turned gray, and he could even imagine the situation where Xu Sheng personally brought the man arranged by the emperor to Zhu Chengyu. Under the shock of extreme shock, the whole person even lost Losing his fighting spirit, he just muttered: "So the trap is here."

The previous so-called servants in the palace and this New Year's Eve family banquet were all just a cover. What Xu Lang wanted was that the father and son threw themselves into the trap.Even if outsiders started talking about it, it was their father and son who were ashamed of the emperor, not the emperor's use of any means to force them to jump over the wall and leave the matter behind.

Xu Fengliang was out of his mind here, Dou could only ask Xue San, and after listening to the ins and outs, he almost lost his mind.There are only so few people in Dun Wang's mansion, and Dou's mind was lost for a while, "How about we run away?"

"Escape?" Xu Fengliang sneered weakly. Could it be that the world is the king's land, where can they escape?Xu Lang would do this, obviously because he didn't intend to give Dun Wangfu any chance to plead his innocence, and the only one he could count on now was Zhu Chengyu.

Although Xu Fengliang also had soldiers from the palace, most of these soldiers were under Xu Fengying's command. At this time, they didn't know what kind of password they had received.

He braced himself up and walked outside, and was stopped when he reached the gate of the mansion. The leader of the guards was usually very respectful to him, but at this time he was obviously alienated, "The night is very windy, the emperor is sympathetic to the prince's hard work, or Let's rest." Xu Fengliang wanted to put on the prince's airs, but the man refused to eat, so he blocked the door and refused to let him go out.

In such a situation, Xu Fengliang had no energy left to struggle.Back then the Xu family raised so many hidden guards, and when Zhu Yong's soldiers attacked Xu's mansion, he was able to defend it like an iron barrel. Now it is easy to trap this prince who is not familiar with martial arts in the mansion.

Xu Fengliang returned to the house dejectedly, all hope was lost, he folded his sleeves and sat alone facing the lamp.

That thief boat could never get off after stepping on it. Even if he is a prince, in the storm tonight, he might sink into the water with this boat, right?

The candle flame flickered, burning out the last light.The heavy snow outside had already stopped, and there was no light in the gray sky. Xu Fengliang sat alone in the dark until the sky was about to dawn.

The heavy snow on New Year's Eve covered everything. In the early morning of the first day of the new year, there were no officials going to court, and the vendors were not as busy as usual, but it seemed that the street market was much quieter and deserted.However, when the imperial guards of the brigade rushed towards Dun Wangfu and several humble official residences, the news exploded in the restaurants and teahouses.

The palace was besieged and several officials were arrested. Although there was no disturbance in the palace, it looked like a coup.However, the common people waited for a long time with all their strength, but they did not hear any new news. They only heard that King Dun was imprisoned and several officials were moved into Dali Temple, and there was no further news.

The expected turmoil did not happen, and by the third day of the Lunar New Year, everything returned to calm.From Qin Wenhan, the privy envoy, down to the last officials, those who should have banquets should still have banquets, and those who should rest should still rest, except in winter when the sky is high and dry, firecrackers occasionally flood the houses, and occasionally a few soldiers pass by quickly on the street Other than that, there was no ripple at all.

Lin Lang felt very comfortable here.

With Xu Sheng leading the way, Xu Lang captured Zhu Chengyu that night, and after checking it was correct, he was sent to the sky prison. Most of the people involved were watched by Xu Lang. , with absolutely no hindrance.He Wenhan, who remained outside, would naturally make arrangements. Now that Zhu Chengyu has been arrested, the important leaders have also been wiped out. Even if those people slipped through the net, there is nothing wrong with it.

Xu Lang let go of one important matter on his mind, and now he and Lin Lang smoked and drank tea, read a book and practiced calligraphy together, which was a rare leisure after entering the palace.

After finishing a word, Lin Lang put down the pen proudly, with the Fang Tao stone inkstone that Xu Lang gave him at hand.Both of them are in good spirits today, wintersweet is offered on the table, the incense in the incense burner is very light, and the tea is boiling in the special tea stove next to it.

The exact same white porcelain cup with plum petals is at hand, and Lin Lang brews fine tea, which is very pleasant.Xu Lang praised her excellent tea making skills, and then looked at her calligraphy, and also praised her: "I have made great progress, and I am afraid that I will be able to catch up with your mother in a few years."

The Qin family was born in a scholarly family, and few women in Beijing can match her calligraphy.How old is Lin Lang, so there is no comparison with the Qin family, but Xu Lang intends to praise her, Lin Lang is not polite, "My son is the fifth day of the junior high school, can I invite my mother to sit here?"

"Of course. My father-in-law has worked so hard to edit the book, so I should give him some condolences."

"There's also Mingxi. She and Mr. Sui have a very strong relationship. They are both talents in the painting academy. They will get married in April next year. They can't be frivolous."

"Okay, listen to you."

"There are also Imperial Physicians Lin and Jinxiu. At such an advanced age, Imperial Physician Lin can't stay alone forever."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Xu Lang still insisted.

"Speaking of which, Miss Han is going to marry her fourth brother in February. There are a lot of happy events this year."

Xu Lang put down the scroll in his hand, squinted his eyes and looked at him with a smile, "There are so many happy events. Now that you are 14 years old, I don't have to stick to it every day." Lin Lang was frustrated immediately, "Wait another year ..." Xu Lang scratched the tip of her nose, "I have consulted with Imperial Physician Lin, and it will be fine after a few months of recuperation."

"You're really not afraid of losing face." Lin Lang snorted, thinking of Xu Lang discussing this matter with Lin Tong in a serious manner, she really wanted to find another imperial doctor to treat her, and never saw Lin Tong again.With a slightly flushed face, she turned her head and looked out of the window. Outside Jinxiu was leading a little maid to trim a plum tree. Xu Lang followed her gaze and suddenly said: "When we have a child, we will read and write inside, and he will play outside." Isn't it very lively to play with snow?"

Lin Lang thought about it, the scene was really warm.
