On the third day of August in the first year of the Holy Yuan Dynasty, Long Xueli launched a coup. The Minister of War and General Li led the troops to completely control the entire capital. She ordered the city gates to be closed. One-tenth of the regular defenders of the capital were in her hands. She wanted to
Controlling the capital was easy. After she took control of the capital, the Imperial Forest Army and the guards rose up to resist, but due to the disparity in strength, they all ended in failure.
The gates of Huadu City are closed. This historical ancient capital has gone through many vicissitudes, witnessing the daughter country's transformation from poverty to prosperity, and witnessing the prosperity and strength of the daughter country generation after generation. This city is full of history and has never been closed during the day.
The door, tightly, closed.
Midsummer is a sultry season.
It has been a bit cool recently, the wind is blowing constantly, and the sky is covered with thick clouds and gloomy, like an angry black devil, with his eyes open, looking coldly at this prosperous land that has ushered in the second chaos.
Huadu has been crowded with people and blooming with flowers. It has been quiet for the past two days. Only the patrols are walking through the streets with heavy steps. Their dark armors are cold and ruthless against the sunlight. There are many spears and the cold air is pressing.
.
At night, Huadu was as quiet as a dead city. Even the cries of children immediately became silent and choked in the throat. The strong wind kept blowing, and everything was desolate.
Huadu, undercurrent is surging!
The emperor and Feng Wang were put under house arrest by her in Fengyi Palace. Elder Xiao Yangyun, the Prime Minister of Zhou, was imprisoned, Liu Yun escaped, Zhou Fan was imprisoned in the palace, and other officials who resisted her were put under house arrest. Two officials were imprisoned for resisting.
But he was poisoned by Long Xueli on the spot, and his blood spattered the Jinluan Palace.
In just two days, the entire capital was in turmoil and bloody, and all resistance was suppressed with force.
In Fengyi Hall, Liusu was drinking tea and playing the chess game set by Nan Jin. His eyebrows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about a very important life event. Liusu's chess skills have been trained very well in the past few years, but
It was quite difficult to crack the chess game set by Nan Jin. She studied it for an hour without moving her hands.
Xiaobai sat aside, peeling the small fruit and eating it with relish. His cute and delicate face showed an expression of enjoyment. He occasionally discussed chess records with Liusu. She had just learned it and was very interested.
Xuan Bei tilted his head and looked at the mother and daughter. He didn't feel nervous at all as a hostage. Apart from being unable to leave Fengyi Hall, he really couldn't tell that they were uncomfortable at all. Zhou Fan was reading quietly aside.
, the day Long Xueli launched the coup, he and Xiaobai were in the study room, and they were put under house arrest together.
"Mom, you've been thinking about it for so long, do you want to make a move?" Xiaobai urged, "If you can't solve daddy's chess game, just say so. After watching it for so long, you've seen through all the chess pieces."
Liusu smiled slightly, and his cold brows were filled with a loving light, "Xiaobai, haven't you been learning chess recently, are you coming?"
"I don't want it!" Xiaobai squinted at the chessboard with a disdainful look, as if he despised Tassel. He was clearly saying that he couldn't solve such a simple chess game. Mom is so stupid!
Tassel eyes smiled like a crescent moon, propped his head, and asked jokingly: "Zhou Fan, how is Xiaobai's chess skills?"
Zhou Fan was reading quietly, with a deserted look as if he didn't hear what was going on outside the window. The sun shrouded his whole body, and the handsome young man was like an arrogant cold star. There was a sense of nobility from Tsinghua University in his loneliness. He didn't even raise his head.
His lips parted slightly, "Rotten wood cannot be carved!"
Xuan Bei laughed loudly regardless of his appearance, Liusu pursed his lips and smiled slightly, Xiaobai's eyes were on fire, he grabbed a handful of fruits and threw them over his face.
The young man raised his right hand, without even looking, he took a handful of fruit in his hand and ate it with great taste, not forgetting to say thank you. Xiaobai's cold face was colorful and very expressive. He supported his head with tassel,
She looked at the tension between her daughter and Zhou Fan with interest, and something flashed through her mind. She smiled, "Xiaobai, I think Zhou Fan is good. How about your mother betrothing you to him?"
Zhou Fan was the son of Prime Minister Zhou, and soon became the Right Prime Minister. Xiaobai's status meant that she could not marry anyone casually, but Zhou Fan's officials would never have any objections.
This young man is very knowledgeable, amazing, thoughtful, personable, and handsome. Although his mood and anger are always invisible, he is a little deeper, and he is a little older than Xiaobai, but the more she looks at it, the more she likes it.
, Xiaobai would find it strange if she married someone of the same age as her, or someone who was not much different in age. Her daughter is precocious and smart. So far, the only one who can suppress her is Zhou Fan.
Xiao Bai and Zhou Fan were obviously startled by her. Xiao Bai's smart eyes showed a dull light for the first time. Zhou Fan's hand holding the book paused, his eyes raised and fell on Xiao Bai,
Her eyes calmly narrowed, and a light that was close to displeasure passed by so quickly that it was hard to catch, and then an expression of disgust appeared on her face. Liusu complained in her heart that her daughter had not been taught well.
Being despised.
"Mom, you must have picked me up, right?" Xiaobai looked at her aggrievedly and asked seriously.
Xuan Bei immediately raised his hand, "Xiao Bai, I testify that the day the young lady picked you up, the sky was high and the night was dark, with strong winds, thunder and lightning..."
Xiaobai glared at him with a fierce expression, Xuanbei laughed loudly, Liusu lowered his voice, "No one dares to want you except him!"
"Am I missing arms and legs, or am I missing eyes and a nose? Why doesn't anyone want me?" Xiaobai protested, confirming again in her mind that she must have picked it up. "Besides, I am the queen, and I am the only one who can choose."
For the sake of human beings, there are still people who are picky about me? Huh!"
"What a vision!" Xuan Bei exclaimed, what a vision.
Zhou Fan, who didn't say a word from beginning to end, said coldly, "I want Xiao Han but I don't want her!"
Xuan Bei was optimistic about the escape route, cherished his life, and stayed away from Zhou Fan. As expected, Xiao Bai threw all the fruits on the plate. Zhou Fan calmly picked up the book and covered his face. All the fruits fell to the ground, including the plate.
Then he read quietly again, as if this scene had never happened.
Xiao Han is the son of Xiao Yang and is a good friend of Zhou Fan. He is a well-known playboy in Huadu. He is the most romantic. It is conceivable that Zhou Fan's words have an unparalleled blow to Xiao Bai.
of huge.
Liusu hurriedly tried to smooth things over. It seemed that this plan was unworkable. Just by talking about it, it almost became a murder scene. It was not feasible!
Pity!
Qingfeng came in from outside the palace. He was startled for a moment and then smiled. He knew without even thinking that the emperor and the second young master were having another fight. He carefully avoided the debris on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there's a fight!"
Liusu put down the Bai Zi in her hand. The decisive moment finally came. She stood up, her back as straight as a green pine, and said in a deep voice: "Let the people in the capital take action. It's time to fight back!"
