Xia Shouzhong was relieved when he heard Liu Yu and others laughing outside the military aircraft office. He knew that he was still at the military aircraft office and had not left. He immediately opened the door and entered the military aircraft office.

Liu Yu was talking and laughing with Sun Yan at this time, while Meng Ming, the head of the Hanlin Academy, sat far away and did not interfere with their affairs.

Liu Yu heard the knock on the door and looked up, only to see Xia Shouzhong running in in a panic.

Liu Yu frowned. He knew that Xia Shouzhong was looking for him now because there was something urgent.

"Lord Liu, the Emperor has ordered you to go and have an audience immediately." Xia Shouzhong said impatiently when he saw Liu Yu looking over.

Liu Yu didn't ask why, because there were many people in the military aircraft department, so he said to Sun Yan next to him: "The emperor has something to ask me about. As for the matter we just talked about, you just do what I want."

Sun Yan stood next to him and said with a slightly respectful smile: "With Master Liu's instructions, I think there is no problem in this matter."

Liu Yu nodded to Sun Yan and then left the military aircraft office directly. Xia Shouzhong behind him hurriedly followed him, and the two of them walked towards Dongnuang Pavilion.

On the way, Liu Yu asked Xia Shouzhong: "Why is the emperor so anxious?"

"I don't know the specific details. It's just that a flying pigeon letter was sent to the emperor from the north. After reading it, the Long Live Lord immediately ordered that it be sent to you." Xia Shouzhong briefly told him what had just happened.

After hearing this, Liu Yu knew there was some important news from Lei Ying, but he didn't know whether it was good or bad this time.

It's best if Lei Ying succeeds, then everything will be settled.

Liu Yu couldn't help but speed up his steps, slowly changing from a brisk walk to a trot.

Xia Shouzhong could keep up with him at first, but soon he fell behind. Xia Shouzhong looked at Liu Yu who was running faster and faster, and was a little surprised. How could this powerless civil servant be able to run so well now?

People like him who have practiced are lagging behind.

When Liu Yu arrived at the door of Dongnuan Pavilion, he saw a young eunuch waiting there, "Long live the Lord, please don't inform Mr. Liu when he comes, just go in and see him."

After hearing this, Liu Yu entered Dongnuan Pavilion directly. At this time, Xia Shouzhong ran over panting. Then he rested against the wall to calm down his breath before he dared to enter Dongnuan Pavilion again.

At this time, the emperor was holding a small roll of paper and walking back and forth in the Dongnuan Pavilion. He seemed to be impatient.

"Your Majesty, Liu Yu is here to see you."

"Liu Aiqing, you came at a good time. Let's take a look at this information. What should we do next?" When the emperor saw Liu Yu coming, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and hurriedly put the information in his hand in front of Liu Yu's eyes.

When Liu Yu opened the result information and took a look, his face immediately turned gray. Unexpectedly, he had thought countless things, but the result now turned out to be the worst.

"Liu Aiqing, if you have any objections, please tell me immediately. Otherwise, by the time Jia Ke's soldiers arrive in the capital and join forces with his direct descendants in the capital, it will be too late for us." The emperor is now in a state of despair.

, without any ideas, just hoping that Liu Yu can come up with a solution to the current predicament.

Liu Yu thought for a while and said: "Long live Lord, now we can only survive from death. Please gather the imperial army that can be mobilized now and attack Jia Ke's mansion immediately and arrest all his family members."

When the emperor heard what he said, he immediately seemed to remember something and said to Xia Shouzhong next to him: "You immediately gather several generals from the Forbidden Army and let them lead their own troops to attack Rongguo Mansion. You must not let the Jia family's

One person ran away."

After the emperor finished speaking, he threw a gold medal into Xia Shouzhong's arms.

Xia Shouzhong listened to the emperor's order and ran out crawling with the gold medal. He now knew that the situation was not good. Otherwise, Liu Yu would not have been so desperate.

Xia Shouzhong had just come outside and ordered his confidants, the eunuchs, to send orders to several generals, telling them to mobilize their troops immediately without any hesitation.

The little eunuch under Xia Shouzhong didn't dare to neglect. He held the gold medal in his hand and immediately ran towards the Imperial Army's office in the imperial city.

When he arrived at the place, he saw several generals sitting there, sitting upright, with some fruits, pears, and fragrant tea beside them. They were sipping the fragrant tea while talking about recent events in the capital.

When the generals of the Forbidden Army saw the little eunuch barging in regardless, they immediately stood up and said, "Little father-in-law, isn't there something urgent?"

The little eunuch didn't waste any time. He lifted up the gold medal in his arms and said loudly: "The emperor has an order to attack the Rongguo Mansion with an entire army. We must capture all Jia Ke's children."

A few of them were shocked when they heard this, but then they understood in their hearts, so they stopped talking nonsense and immediately ran out of the house and began to order their men to organize their troops.

As a result, they had just gathered more than 3,000 people when they saw Xiao Kun, who was commanding the Forbidden Army, unable to come with his own soldiers.

As soon as Xiao Kun arrived at the scene, he immediately asked: "Who dares to assemble the army privately without my general order?"

And one of these generals, the leader of these people, this person's surname is Wang Minglei. This general has been a general of the Forbidden Army for several lifetimes. His ancestors were also soldiers of Emperor Taizu of the Taikai Kingdom. He raised his head and looked at

Xiao Kun said: "The emperor has ordered to assemble the army. Does Commander Xiao want to resist the order?"

Xiao Kun glanced at him, and without saying anything to him, he directly said to his soldiers: "Execute this traitor who mobilized troops privately on the spot."

When Wang Lei heard this, he became anxious. He said to the soldiers behind him: "Xiao Kun disobeyed the order and has rebelled. Come with me and execute him on the spot."

Unexpectedly, after he finished shouting, the soldiers behind him did not move at all, and no one listened to his orders.

Before Wang Lei could react, Xiao Kun's soldiers came to him with their weapons and chopped him into pieces without any explanation.

When the remaining generals saw this situation and knew that the situation was over, they quickly threw their weapons to the ground, knelt in front of Xiao Kun and kept begging for mercy.

Xiao Kun and others didn't hesitate at all. With a wink at the soldiers, Bi Ke and others were all hacked to death.

After Xiao Kun took these generals, he said to his soldiers: "According to the commander-in-chief's order, the imperial army immediately gathered to surround the palace. Don't let a traitor escape."

Xiao Kun's kneeling soldiers immediately went to deliver the order, and soon all the forbidden troops were assembled and then surrounded the imperial city.

After Xia Shouzhong passed on the order, he returned to Dongnuan Pavilion again. He came to the emperor and said, "Long live your Lord, I have passed on the order."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the throne again, and then asked Liu Yu: "Liu Aiqing, what do you think we should do next?"

Liu Yu is frowning now and is a little embarrassed to answer. Now that things have developed to the worst possible situation, he can only prepare for the worst.

"Long live Lord, now we can only save ourselves first. After capturing Jia Ke's family, we can use this to negotiate with him and force him to cancel the matter. If possible, we may even send him to the border provinces.

Let him be a local emperor there. This is the best situation I can think of."

The emperor thought for a while and decided that this was all he could do now. Although this would add another separate vassal town to the imperial court, it was still better than being destroyed together.

So they could only wait here quietly to see if the imperial army could break through the Jia Mansion protected by the infantry commander's Yamen.

In the end, within a quarter of an hour, a young eunuch ran into Dongnuan Pavilion like crazy. When Xia Shouzhong saw that the young eunuch didn't understand the rules, he stepped forward and scolded him.

As a result, the little eunuch didn't seem to see Xia Shouzhong and knelt down directly in front of the emperor, "Long live my lord, something bad has happened. Just now the imperial army launched a mutiny and killed all the emperor's generals. Now the rebels have killed the emperor."

The city is surrounded by people."

When the emperor heard this, his face immediately turned pale. He knew that this must be Jia Ke's back-up plan.

Liu Yu was already unsteady on his feet and was about to collapse. Xia Shouzhong was even more cowardly. After hearing these words, he immediately collapsed to the ground and could no longer stand up.

In the end, Liu Yu was a little impatient and said hurriedly: "Please take the virtuous concubine to Ningshou Palace to see the Emperor immediately and ask the Emperor to come out and take charge of the overall situation."

The emperor understood what Liu Yu meant as soon as he heard this. Now the only relative of Jia Ke he could control in the palace was the virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun. He now took Jia Yuanchun to the Supreme Emperor and asked Jia Ke for the sake of the Supreme Emperor.

, I can turn big things into small things. But in the end I am afraid I will have to be a puppet for decades.

So the emperor did not dare to neglect, and said directly to Xia Shouzhong: "Show off to Fengzao Palace immediately."

Xia Shouzhong got an idea at this time, and immediately got up from the ground and went to the door to prepare for the emperor.

After ordering Xia Shouzhong, the emperor said to Liu Yu: "Liu Aiqing, come with me to the palace, and then go to see the Supreme Emperor."

Liu Yu thought for a while that it might be inappropriate to enter the harem with his identity, but now he couldn't care so much. So he agreed to the emperor.

After a while, Xia Shouzhong came in from outside and said to the emperor: "Long live my Lord, Luan Jia is ready and can set off."

When the emperor heard this, he didn't care about anything else. He immediately left Dongnuan Pavilion and got on a bright yellow sedan outside Dongnuan Pavilion. Dozens of eunuchs surrounded the emperor and went directly to the inner palace. Liu Yu had no choice but to follow

Behind him, he entered the harem with the emperor. This was the first time for an ordinary man to enter the emperor's harem.

This group of people hurriedly arrived at Fengzao Palace, where Jia Yuanchun was playing the piano. During this period, due to Jia Ke's relationship, Jia Yuanchun was already the most favored woman in the palace. All of them

The cost is almost the same as that of the Queen.

While Jia Yuanchun was playing the piano in high spirits, he suddenly heard a noise outside, and then he saw the emperor running in quickly with Xia Shouzhong from outside.

When Jia Yuanchun saw that he was the emperor, he dared to stand up and salute him, "My concubine Jia Yuanchun has come to greet the emperor."

The emperor didn't have time to be polite to her now, so he said directly: "My beloved concubine, you will immediately go to Ningshou Palace to meet the Supreme Emperor." After saying this, Xia Shouzhong next to him winked.

Xia Shouzhong immediately waved to the palace ladies and eunuchs behind him, and the palace ladies immediately came forward to change Jia Yuanchun's clothes. They changed her into travel clothes in the main hall.

Jia Yuanchun also felt that something was wrong, but what could he, a weak woman, do? He could only let the emperor do what he wanted.

After Jia Yuanchun changed her clothes, the emperor turned around and walked outside without looking at her.

Xia Shouzhong ordered his eunuchs to help his son Jia Yuanchun and follow the emperor outside. After arriving outside, they had prepared a small sedan. They sent Jia Yingchun to the small sedan, and he immediately looked like the Ningshou Palace of the Supreme Emperor.
