Chapter 552 Pretending to be Sleeping(1/3)
Capital.
In a teahouse.
Several merchants from all over the country were sitting in groups of three or three.
At this moment, several merchants were talking about something, and a bit of sadness appeared on their faces.
"When will this day end!"
A merchant couldn't help but sigh.
The partner next to him also sighed: "Yes, we have been trapped in the capital for half a month. If we don't go back quickly, we may have to smash the batch of goods on hand..."
"You must not be disturbed by this matter. You said that when will Your Majesty die, but you just die at this time..."
Emperor Zhao passed away and the capital was caught in unprecedented alertness.
Almost all people traveling from south to north are strictly restricted. These merchants originally came from the south and wanted to transport a batch of goods to Beizhou.
As a result, after the news of Emperor Zhao's death came, they were trapped in the capital. Without special approval, they were forbidden to leave the capital.
This is a life-threatening businessman who relies on running errands to make a living.
"Shh, you can't say this!"
The merchant next to him quickly blocked his partner's mouth.
This is the capital city, when Emperor Zhao died and the new emperor ascended the throne. The city was full of patrols of city defense forces, and countless spies in the dark.
If one is not good, it will be arrested and entered Jingzhao Mansion.
"Oh, it's too difficult!"
The merchant also realized that there was something wrong with his words and quickly shut up. However, although the conversation between the few people was low, the sorrow on his face still couldn't dissipate.
Not far from the teahouse, there were several "people from the rivers and lakes" sitting.
Judging from the clothes and outfits of these people, their dusty outfits are like heroes in the world.
Several people heard the chat and conversation between merchants next to them, and one of the middle-aged men sneered: "The late emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne. We ordinary people have not seen each other well, but it has become worse... You see, we don't even let us talk now!"
The middle-aged man's voice was not loud or small, but it was just enough for everyone in the quiet teahouse to hear it clearly.
Everyone's eyes immediately looked at the people by the window, and their eyes showed a look of admiration.
Warriors!
How dare you say such words at such a critical moment?
Do you want to die?
You know, there are countless people arrested in Beijing recently for such dangerous remarks!
The new emperor ascended the throne and was amnesty for the whole world. But only those who spread rumors and argued against the court are still locked up.
Now there are still people who are afraid of life and dare to discuss the court without any brains.
The timid people next to them have already started to get up and leave, and they are worried about being on their faces.
Only these "people from the world" by the window still do their own thing and have no worries at all.
"Who said no? No matter what, the unlucky one will always be the ordinary people..."
Another accomplice curled his lips and looked out the window: "Can the court block our mouths and the mouths of the people in the world? Why not go outside and see what the world is like now!"
"Several people, be careful!"
The businessmen next to him saw that they were still speaking in danger, and quickly dissuaded them.
"What are you afraid of?"
The middle-aged man sneered: "At worst, I can catch me and chop my head. So what?"
"I want to know what crime I committed!"
Several merchants shook their heads repeatedly, quickly got up to check the bill and left in a hurry.
They dare not provoke the court.
Soon, there were only three people in the corner of the teahouse.
The three of them were still sitting aside, their faces calmly.
Another young man looked at the middle-aged man: "What's the situation?"
"The news has spread in all prefectures, counties and counties, so it will definitely not be blocked!"
The middle-aged man sneered: "How easy is it for the court to block the mouths of all people in the world?"
The other person also shook his head: "It is so strange that the death of the late emperor is so strange. There must be unknown secrets... The court will not give an explanation, how can the people in the world convince themselves?"
“…”
Listening to the dangerous remarks of these people, the shopkeeper next to the teahouse was trembling.
Are these people crazy?
How dare they discuss such a topic here?
court death!
Just when the shopkeeper was frightened, a neat line of footsteps appeared outside the teahouse.
The shopkeeper looked up and saw several fully armed city defense forces.
"It's here, catch people!"
Before the shopkeeper could react, the group rushed into the teahouse directly.
The shopkeeper next to him came to his senses. Sure enough, the city defense force was coming!
The "people from the world" upstairs are probably going to be in trouble!
However, when the city defense force arrived upstairs, they found that the upper floors had already been empty, and the figures of the "people from the rivers and lakes" had long been gone.
"Where are people?"
"I can't run away, chase me!"
“…”
Outside the teahouse, above the roof not far away.
The three of them looked at each other.
"Each oneself take action. The task assigned to us this time must be completed!"
"yes!"
The other two men dispersed, and the young man stood there, looking into the direction of the Dazhao Palace in the distance, muttering to himself.
"It's my turn to be the prince of the Great Chau throne..."
“…”
Su Mansion.
"Madam, I've taken the medicine!"
In the quiet room, the maid walked to the bed with medicine.
On the bed, Su Mu looked haggard and stared blankly at the ceiling.
When the maid on the side saw this scene, she felt a little relieved.
Since the eldest son was assassinated, the wife has gone almost crazy!
These days, they often beat and scold them, smash things from time to time, and scold them, angrily scold them for venting their anger.
Even yesterday, my wife fell seriously ill and was bedridden!
After the imperial doctor in the palace came to visit, he just comforted his wife and told her to take good care of her illness.
After this serious illness, the wife became quiet and stopped making a fuss. She was dazed like this all day, and her face became paler.
The maid's voice did not cause Su's mother to react too much.
"mother!"
Just then, a sound came from outside the room.
Immediately afterwards, Su Cheng's figure rushed in with dust.
"Second Young Master!"
The maid spoke quickly.
Su Cheng walked into the room and was slightly panicked when he saw his mother, who was pale and haggard with eyes and eyes.
"What's wrong with my mother?"
The maid next to her whispered: "Mrs. I'm sick..."
"What?!"
