A Thousand Hills

Chapter 254

When Xie Moru received the notice that the children would resume classes, he had no choice but to say that it was a good way to scare the snake away!

It's just that, this move was to startle the snake. I don't know if it was Su Xiang's handwriting, or Jiang Beiling's idea, or the two joined forces, and Emperor Mu Yuan acquiesced.

Although Xie Moru's news was slow, by the early morning of the next day, he knew some news that should be known.

Du Juan said, "At dawn last night, people in many places in the city shouted that the King of Jingjiang is coming to the city! The whole city has been in chaos since then. Those chaotic people in our mansion were also caused by the first watch, and now they have all been taken care of. Yes, the Chief Steward looks like he has entered the field of transformation. The Fourth Prince’s Mansion also took care of people like ours, but I heard that the First Prince’s Mansion and the Third Prince’s Mansion only arrested people and did not deal with them.”

"What are you going to do if you don't deal with it? It won't work if you keep them for the New Year?" Xie Moru said lightly. It's not good to start a dynasty like this. The political sense has not been cultivated at all. Sometimes Xie Moru doesn't know what to say about what he does.She didn't care about other people's homes, and asked, "How about the casualties in the city?"

This cuckoo doesn't know.

Xie Moru said, "It doesn't matter, which one in the city has more casualties?"

"Other people's family is fine, but Yongyihou was unfortunately injured by the meticulous work. I heard that it is not good. The Yongyihou's mansion has even sent out white flags."

"Yongyihou." Xie Moru didn't say anything, their house had no contact with Yongyihou's mansion, but it was the old lady of Yongyihou's mansion, she had met once when she was young.Xie Moru sent the steward to take the post to the prince's mansion to inquire.

For a while, Xie Zhi came over again, seeing that Xie Moru was all well, he was relieved.

Xie Moru asked, "How is the family?"

Xie Zhi said, "Big sister, just rest assured, the family is fine, there were a few troublemakers, they were dealt with last night."

Xie Moru's jaw.

Xie Moru has nothing to worry about here, she walks ahead in everything, although she doesn't have the ability to predict the future, she always prepares for the worst.

Xie Shangshu was worried about the third prince, and when he heard that those troublemakers were still detained in the third prince's house, Xie Shangshu whispered, "Such traitors cannot be punished."

The third prince has been in the Ministry of Punishment for many years, but he is really not a ruthless person. Moreover, it is not appropriate for those people to be dealt with without interrogation.Xie Shangshu saw that the third prince was hesitating, and said again, "After the interrogation, what kind of good things can the rebel say, the old minister is afraid that the rebel will gossip and bite wildly, turning right and wrong." Xie Shangshu has lived all these years, and he has never seen anything Well, the Three Princes' Mansion may not be all in full glory. Since Jingjiang sent these meticulous works, if they really want to come to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for a trial, I'm afraid that the Three Princes will get into trouble if they don't have anything to do.In the midst of chaos, how can such a dying person stay!

The third prince hurried back to deal with him.

Xiao Tang hurriedly went to see his master early in the morning. Seeing that his master, Mr. Beiling, was safe and sound, Fang Da heaved a sigh of relief, supported his back with one hand, and when he calmed down, Xiao Tang said, "I don't know Such a big event happened last night! Otherwise, I would have come here long ago, Master, you are not surprised, are you?"

To be honest, Mr. Beiling has seen the change of dynasties, these things really can't surprise him.On the contrary, Mr. Beiling saw the sweat on Xiaotang's forehead and asked, "How is your family doing?"

"It's pretty good. I didn't even know that such a big event happened last night. I only found out after breakfast! I came over quickly! I heard from Xiao Zhong that there were a few rebels in our house, but they were all arrested!" Zhong is Xiao Tang's personal companion since he was a child, and he grew up with him, and he is the most loyal.While wiping the sweat off his face, Xiao Tang said, "I want to know that there were rebels yesterday, so I must not be able to sleep!! Fortunately, the rules in our house are strict, and the guards are also capable. Otherwise, the princess and the little highnesses should not be sent to sleep." Startled."

Xiao Tang himself is actually not very clear about what happened in the mansion last night. He only heard that someone rebelled and arrested many people. Xiao Tang himself has nothing to do. He rested with His Royal Highness, he was in the outer courtyard by himself, and slept soundly last night.It is the people around him, because he came to the emperor to work in the palace, and his parents arranged for them to be servants, the most loyal and reliable. This time, some officials and servants were involved in the incident, and the people around Xiao Tang were very stable. Well, this is also the benefit of the family of eunuchs, they use servants, and servants cannot be bought easily.Xiao Tang was in a hurry to see his master, and didn't ask much about the palace.Mr. Beiling is an old man, and you can tell from Xiaotang that there is some confusion in just a few words. The matter in the Minwang Mansion has not caused a big disturbance, and even Xiaotang has not been alarmed. It can be seen that either he has taken precautions in advance, or the Minwang Mansion has a first-class security measures.

Mr. Beiling asked, "Is everyone around you okay?"

Xiao Tang Khan had already wiped it off, his cheeks were still rosy after exercising, he blinked a pair of bright almond eyes, and said, "What can happen to the people around me?"

Mr. Beiling said, "It's fine."

Really stupid people have stupid blessings.

Everyone couldn't feel at ease with the trouble last night.

Early in the morning, the four princes and concubines went to the palace to pay their respects to Xie Moru. Their palace was in chaos, so I don't know how the palace is going.

Xie Moru originally planned to visit Concubine Su, but when talking about last night, Xie Moru said, "Speaking of which, I would like to thank my fourth brother and sister-in-law, it is so chaotic, and we still have to take care of our house."

"Hey, that didn't help me either. Speaking of which, your mansion is still a little more strict." The two families are neighbors, and the fourth prince and his wife knew that the fifth prince was not there. The fourth prince came over to have a look.Fortunately, Xie Moru was very strict in managing the family, and there was no disturbance in the house.Otherwise, there is no man in charge in this mansion, so it is not reassuring after all.Because the fourth prince's mansion was not peaceful, when the fourth prince brought people over, the rioters in Xie Moru's mansion had already chopped off their heads one by one. Seeing that his fifth brother's mansion was fine, the fourth prince went back to kill those rioters in his own mansion. Also cleaned up.

"The fourth brother and the fourth sister-in-law have this kind of heart, and it is better than anything else. In our house, His Highness can't manage affairs, and the city is under martial law. The children are young, so they are not afraid of anything else, but they are afraid of accidents." Xie Moru said, "I am in trouble in the morning. Go to various mansions to inquire, fortunately, there is no danger in our mansions. It is my sister-in-law who was frightened, and we will go to see her again tomorrow."

"Yes."

After discussing it, the two went to the palace to pay their respects.The fourth concubine stayed with the queen mother to talk, and Xie Moru went to Shuren palace after paying her respects in the palace of kindness.

Xie Moru didn't know about Taisun's injury until he arrived at Shuren Palace.

Concubine Su was leaning on the couch, when she heard Xie Moru coming, she lifted the thin quilt and got up, first asked, "Are you okay?" The son is not here, the daughter-in-law is a female relative after all, the children are young, Concubine Su stayed overnight last night He didn't sleep, not because he was afraid of the rebels, but because he was concerned about the safety of Xie Moru and the children.

Xie Moru saw the haggardness between Concubine Su's brows, stepped forward to help her sit down, and said softly, "Concubine Mother, don't worry, our house is fine, but last night there were some chaotic people, and they were taken down after failing to do anything." The mother and concubine also know that the outside is not peaceful now, and the house is stricter than before, and there were not too many people disturbed last night. Just now, the servant came to our house to send a message, saying that the children can continue to go to school tomorrow, It's too peaceful to come to the palace. Is there nothing wrong with the concubine mother?"

"There are a few palace people in my palace who are inappropriate, and they are all dealt with." Concubine Su patted Xie Moru's hand and sighed, "Everyone is safe, it is a blessing."

Xie Moru took the two bird's nests brought by Qing Ning, one for Concubine Su, and the other for himself, and sent Qing Ning down, Fang laughed, "Mother and Concubine, just rest assured, it's better if this happens sooner rather than later." If it was Jingjiang Lincheng, the chaos inside and outside the palace would be a big chaos. Now that the palace is quieter, I can rest assured that the children will come to study in the palace."

Concubine Su has been in the harem all the time, and the news could not be clearer without thanks, she said, "Didn't it be Jingjiang Lincheng yesterday?" Concubine Su thought it was true.

Xie Moru said in a low voice, "There is no such thing as Jingjiang Lincheng at all. According to me, I am afraid that last night was just to clear up the details of this imperial capital city."

Concubine Su suddenly realized, of course there were things that Concubine Su couldn't understand, for example, how did Emperor Mu Yuan know that Xizuo was going to take action last night?However, Concubine Su couldn't help pondering, "But, if His Majesty knows about this, how can he hurt his grandson?"

Xie Moru was a little surprised, "Is the grandson injured?"

Concubine Su nodded her head slightly, "I didn't ask anyone to inquire, but the news has reached me. I think the injury is not serious. Your Majesty sent Imperial Doctor Dou there."

Xie Moru lowered his eyes, thought for a moment and said, "Jingjiang has been living in the palace since he was a child, and even though he went to become a feudal clan later, he became a feudal clan step by step. How many people he has arranged in the imperial capital over the years, I am afraid that His Majesty will not be able to fully know , otherwise, it will not put the palace in danger."

Concubine Su sighed, "Yes." Regardless of others, Emperor Mu Yuan attached great importance to his sons and grandchildren, and if Emperor Mu Yuan knew about these details, he would have dealt with them in secret.I am afraid that Emperor Mu Yuan didn't know, so he used this trick to scare the snake.

Concubine Su said sadly, "The situation in the imperial capital is like this. I don't know what happened to Jiangnan?" She rarely asked about her son's safety, mainly because she cared about it, and Xie Moru cared about it the same way, and Xie Moru didn't know what happened to her son in Jiangnan. ?Concubine Su was frightened by this today, and couldn't help but think of her son who is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, is it in danger or is it safe?I couldn't help it for a while, so I said it.

Xie Moru naturally saw Concubine Su's worry, she said, "In the imperial capital, you can only sit in a sad city, not as good as Jiangnan. Although it is temporarily defeated, there is still room for maneuver. Although Jingjiang is going north, its foundation is still in Jiangnan. Where is the foundation? Where does success or failure in the future must fall. What's more, Your Highness and I have been able to understand Jingjiang's routines in Fujian for three years. No serious damage, if we can integrate the remaining troops in the south of the Yangtze River with the soldiers and horses of Fujian as the center, such a small way is not to be feared. At the beginning, His Highness had mostly recruits, and Jingjiang's secret work was also among the ministers, and Jingjiang was still defeated. That's why I say that success or failure doesn't depend on these chickens and dogs. The important thing is that if you work together and use your troops well, you can expect victory."

Concubine Su felt relieved when she heard Xie Moru's eloquent talk, and said comfortingly, "Yes, that's the reason."

Xie Moru persuaded Concubine Su to eat a cup of bird's nest, Concubine Su said, "Since you are here, you can go to the East Palace to have a look, these days, the Concubine Crown Princess is also working hard." regret.But to the East Palace, Concubine Su really has nothing else to say!At the beginning, her son was not optimistic about the prince going to the south of the Yangtze River, and the prince was going to die.If you go, go, if you go, mess around, Jiangnan's defeat so far is all because of the prince!Had it not been for Jiangnan's defeat, the imperial capital would not have been in such chaos!There is no need for the fifth prince to go to the dangerous place in person, and ask the fifth prince to fill in the hole if the prince provokes it. Although this is the pursuit of wealth and wealth, if the prince could listen to someone's persuasion, why would this be the case!Even if the indescribable "wealth", Concubine Su believes that with the unity of her son and daughter-in-law, even if there is no Jiangnan incident, she can still give it a go!

Now that the grandson is like this, in the final analysis, it is all the disaster caused by the prince himself.But the child is innocent after all.

Knowing that the grandson was injured, Xie Moru naturally wanted to visit him.

To visit patients, it is better to go there in the morning.

Xie Moru didn't delay in Concubine Su's palace, Concubine Su ordered Qing Ning, a member of the palace, to prepare two medicinal supplements for Xie Moru to take along with her.One is from Shuren Palace and the other is from Xie Moru.

When Xie Moru arrived, the third concubine and the fourth concubine had arrived, and the crown princess was in a state of haggardness, and the entire East Palace seemed to have lost its former spirit.The third concubine was comforting the crown princess, Xie Moru greeted the crown princess, sat down, waited for the palace servants to serve tea, Xie Moru took a sip, and said, "This is the end, the empress should take care, or wait for the prince to return , Seeing the empress so hurt, I'm afraid I don't feel well."

As soon as the prince was mentioned, the princess's tears fell.The father is dead, the son is injured, the crown prince's husband is dead, and the crown princess wished she could follow along.Xie Moru said, "Don't worry, His Royal Highness is safe."

The Crown Princess suddenly raised her tearful eyes, looked at Xie Moru with burning eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Are you serious about what the fifth sibling said?"

Xie Moru changed hands and put the teacup aside, and said, "Think about it, ma'am, if Jingjiang really wins, why would he hide it? It's just what King Jingjiang said, Madam doesn't have to believe a word, if Jingjiang can say His Royal Highness Good words, he will not rebel today. There is no news of the prince, which is excellent news. My lady thinks about the war in Fujian, whether there was no news from Fujian for a period of time. It is like this in wartime It is inevitable that the exchange of news will not be smooth. What's more, a temporary defeat is not a defeat. Even the matter of Wu Guogong, the empress can rest assured for the time being. If others don't talk about it, the matter of Yongding Hou was a last resort. For the sake of war, it is inevitable that Yongding The Hou Mansion is sad."

"The war is not over yet, and no one knows what is going on in Jiangnan. The current news may not be accurate news. Madam, don't worry, His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, will return safely!"

Xie Moru's persuasion has never been "you want to open a little", "the family is counting on you", "you have to live through good times and bad times", it has never been this way, she has always focused on analyzing the situation, and comforted her in her heart As a supplement.Even the situation of the concubine who has no father, her husband is unknown, and her son is seriously injured, after analyzing it, the concubine felt that there was a life-saving straw. The concubine wiped her tears and said, "I only hope to obey the words of the fifth sibling!"

The third concubine then persuaded, "Your Majesty, don't worry, we have never been out of the imperial capital. The fifth sibling accompanied His Highness the Fifth Highness, but they went through a war. She knows more about this than we do. Your Majesty, think about the Marquis of Yongding." At that time, my sister-in-law was so sad, and later news came that Yongding Hou was safe and sound, and it was a false alarm. His Royal Highness, the prince of the country, has his own gods to protect him, so he will be fine."

The fourth concubine hasn't come to the East Palace for a long time, seeing the concubine's distraught appearance, she sighed secretly, and said, "Your Majesty, please be at ease." God has eyes for death.But grandson, this child is really a pity.

The sixth concubine came later and persuaded the concubine a lot.

Everyone persuaded the princess better and left.

They left the East Palace together, and made an appointment tomorrow to visit the eldest prince and concubine together, and the sisters-in-law also dispersed.The third concubine had to go to her mother-in-law, Xie Moru went to concubine Su, the fourth concubine did not have a mother-in-law, so she left the palace directly, but the sixth concubine also left the palace together with the fourth concubine.

Afterwards, the fourth concubine and Xie Moru talked about the sixth concubine, and said, "The sixth sibling is also difficult. It is easy for the sixth prince to understand, but the concubine Liu always picks on her. That day she arrived earlier than us. Concubine Liu stumbled over the palace, and Concubine Liu resented her for being incapable of governing the mansion, and gave birth to rebels. Therefore, the sixth younger siblings are the latest to go to the East Palace."

Xie Moru said bluntly, "I'm getting more and more dizzy, why didn't she say that His Majesty is incapable of governing the country."

The Fourth Prince Zhile said, "That's your mouth, what you say is both sharp and irrefutable."

"People in the world pay attention to family style, and there is actually a certain reason for it." Ruxie Moru, Zilai most dislikes the Liu family's family style.If there is no distinction between the concubine and the concubine, disaster will happen!

When the two of them talked, the fourth imperial concubine Fang said something to Xie Moru in a little embarrassment. She wanted Xie Moru to help predict her father's situation in the south of the Yangtze River!

Xie Moru: ...

Xie Moru, "Fourth sister-in-law, I, I don't know how to do divination."

"I don't really believe in divination." The fourth concubine moved closer to Xie Moru and said, "Fifth brother and sister, you have always been more knowledgeable than me. Please help me analyze and analyze, is something really wrong with my father?"

Xie Moru thought for a while, and said, "Generally, there is a feeling between close relatives, do you have any special feeling, sister-in-law?"

The fourth concubine thought about it carefully, and said, "That's not true. However, when I was a child, my father was seriously injured in a war. At that time, my mother dreamed about it at home. I also said that the dream is not accurate, but later I Dad will be hurt when he comes back."

"That's it. Did Mrs. Nan'an have any ominous dreams this time?"

"Yes, about two months ago, my mother said that she dreamed that my father was in a dark place, and she couldn't see where it was. She called my father, but my father couldn't hear him." Speaking of this, the fourth prince Concubine was very worried.

Xie Moru said, "If a relative dies, you can't help but feel sad. I think Mrs. Nan'an's dream should be caused by anxiety. The fourth sister-in-law is worried about Lord Hou. It is nothing more than King Jingjiang saying that the East Palace poisoned Lord Hou. Think about it, even if the East Palace is in the same position as the Marquis, how can the Marquis be killed without asking? When King Jingjiang played this banner, there was already chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Marquis might be inconvenient. But it’s too early to talk about life and death.”

"Amitabha." The fourth prince and concubine folded his hands together and recited the Buddha's voice, "My father has fought in all his life, and he has never been in such a dangerous situation before."

Xie Moru smiled, "Master Hou has fought battles all his life, I'm afraid there are more thrilling things than this."

The fourth concubine said, "If I can respond to you, brother and sister, I will set up a longevity tablet for you in the future."

These words really shocked Xie Moru, Xie Moru waved his hands again and again, "That's all I said, Fourth Sister-in-law, don't be like that, I won't dare to speak in the future."

The fourth concubine sighed, "It's not peaceful inside and outside the city. I'm worried. Every day when His Royal Highness goes home, I don't dare to ask. I know he's very tired. If the situation is not good, I will ask." If it's too much, it makes him feel uncomfortable. Only by talking to you, the fifth sibling, can I stabilize my heart."

This is the truth, the fourth concubine has a good relationship with Xie Moru, and she loves to talk to Xie Moru about any difficulties.But others, even those who have a normal relationship with Xie Moru, such as the princess, also like to listen to Xie Moru's words at the moment, and Mrs. Xie, when she has no ideas, listening to Xie Moru's words seems to calm her heart.

This could be considered Xie Moru's special aura.

After this fight, the Imperial City entered a new level of tranquility and peace, and the martial law was lifted. It's just that there are more troops patrolling the streets on weekdays, and there is still a curfew at night, but the lives of the people themselves can go on normally.

The Royal Mid-Autumn Festival was not held in such a situation, but Empress Dowager Hu announced that Master Wenxiu entered the palace and talked about Buddhism. Empress Dowager Hu has lived for more than [-] years, and she has never been interested in Buddhism.Her old man wants to ask Venerable Wenxiu to calculate the fortune of the country. There have been many disturbances in recent days. First, the old lady died, and then the emperor’s son was shocked. The grandson was injured again. Empress Dowager Hu couldn’t bear it and cried all day long endless.It was Princess Wenkang's idea for her mother, so it's better to ask an eminent monk to do the math.

The eminent monk divination, the capital of the emperor, the most famous is Master Wenxiu.

Even if Master Wenxiu is an eminent monk, it is difficult to refuse the queen mother of a country. The main reason is that Master Wenxiu declined for a long time, but Queen Mother Hu couldn't understand, so she just said, "When will the master make a fortune?"

When encountering such people, the eminent monk has no choice.Master Wenxiu had no choice but to say, "The old monk's mana is limited, and he still needs help from one person." He asked Princess Min to be his assistant.

Xie Moru heard this and sighed deeply, none of these old foxes are easy to pester.Master Wenxiu clearly wanted her to clean up the mess by herself, after all Master Wenxiu's fortune-telling reputation was entirely created for him by Xie Moru.Before meeting Xie Moru, people don't know how to do divination at all; after meeting Xie Moru, they will.

So, thank you for the stall you set up yourself, and collect it yourself.

Don't look at Xie Moru who often went to the mountain to talk with Venerable Wenxiu about knowledge on weekdays. The whole emperor knew that Xie Moru had a good relationship with this monk, but when it was critical, he didn't have any sympathy at all.

Master Wenxiu said so, Xie Moru had no choice but to agree.She and Empress Dowager Hu are at odds, and it depends on when, Empress Dowager Hu is crying like this, if she goes to touch her eyes again, she will really lose her eyesight.

No third person knew about the specific process of divination. Master Wenxiu bathed and fasted for three days, and when Xie Moru arrived, the two of them went to the quiet room. When they had a cup of tea, a piece of plain paper was passed out, with only one word on it: Dong.

The Empress Dowager Hu recognized the word "Dong", but she really didn't understand what the word "Dong" meant, so she wanted to find out. Master Wenxiu, with an inscrutable look, proclaimed the Buddha's name, "Today For the sake of the common people in the world, peeping at the will of heaven has violated the law of Buddhism. From today onwards, within ten years, the poor monk will no longer do divination for others, nor dare to reveal the secrets of heaven. Otherwise, there will be thunder from the gods, and the poor monk will be turned into ashes It’s only for a moment.”

Empress Dowager Hu couldn't force the eminent monk to death, so she had to figure it out by herself.

With such a "secret", the Empress Dowager Hu finally had a spiritual sustenance, so she forgot some sadness, and asked her daughter to study the "secret" together every day.

Xie Moru's word "Dong" not only found a spiritual sustenance for Queen Mother Hu, but also aroused thousands of waves. Even Xiao Tang asked his master Mr. Beiling for advice when he heard the news, "Master, why is it a'winter' What about the word? What does the word 'winter' mean?"

Mr. Beiling was sitting on the porch, the warm autumn sun was spreading, the old man was twiddling his beard comfortably, slowly turning over a page of the book, and said, "Winter, winter, it's cold."

Yes.

Winter is the coldest season of the four seasons.

King Jingjiang chose the end of summer and the beginning of autumn to start his army. It was indeed a good time, and the food and grass along the way could be maintained by looting.However, from the north to the south, the climate in the north and the south is very different. Take winter as an example, it is cold if there are three or two thin snows in winter in the south. In the middle of winter in the north, dripping water turns into ice.Is Nanbing suitable for the northern winter?Relying on the robbed food and grass, can they survive the winter in the north?

In addition to food, clothing and things to keep out the cold, has King Jingjiang prepared it?

Soldiers from the south to the north, this winter character is well written!
