Mrs. Liu thanked Feng Zongping and Yi Ziyang again and asked the servants to send them back before carrying Daji home. https://
Changqing Lane was very quiet, and all the people who usually sat at the door to pick up the soles of their shoes were gone. The door of their house was wet, and it had obviously just been washed, but there were still blood stains in the gaps between the bluestone slabs and the walls that could not be washed away.
There are officers with swords guarding both sides. People in the courtyard are not allowed to come out, and of course people from outside are not allowed to enter casually.
When Man Bao walked in, he saw that the yard was also being washed, and some flowers and plants were still splashed with blood drops. No one had thought to wash the flowers and plants yet, so the blood stains were still on them.
Man Bao and the other three looked a little pale.
So Mr. Zhuang was very happy, "I heard that you fell into the water. This is really lucky. Otherwise, you would have died on land."
Mr. Zhuang didn't know that they almost died in the water.
The two looked at each other, and Bai Shan swallowed his saliva and said, "So sir, swimming is very important. You always didn't let us play with water before."
Mr. Zhuang stopped talking, but even Mrs. Liu relented and said, "If you want to learn to swim later, go ahead and ask two highly skilled people to teach you."
Bai Erlang followed Mr. Zhuang closely and asked in a low voice, "Sir, no one in our family died, right?"
Mr. Zhuang was silent for a while and then sighed and said, "Two servants died of serious injuries, and three people from the Punishment Department died, and there were a lot of injuries."
Mrs. Liu said, "Although they were on official business, they died for my Bai family after all. I went back to find out their home address and sent some funeral rites there, just to show my sincerity."
Liu Gui on the side responded.
In this assassination, King Yizhou may have wanted to establish his authority, but he also needed people to escape, so although many people were left behind, their skills were probably not very good.
Most of those people came to the Bai family in Changqing Lane, and only eight people took orders to follow Bai Shan and the others.
Originally, eight assassins were more than enough to deal with Bai Shan and the other three. After all, they were only accompanied by Da Ji and Liu Gui, and Liu Gui stayed at the carriage to watch the carriage.
They didn't think it would take too many people to kill these four people, but who knew that Feng Zongping and others were there at that time, and Daji's martial arts, which was usually unshowy, was so good that he could hold down four people by one person.
The two most important targets also fell into the water...
As soon as the King of Yizhou escaped, the situation in Beijing became tense. Especially after the assassination at Xiangguo Temple, many people in the court felt in danger.
If the King of Yizhou is so arrogant and barbaric, and wants to kill Bai Shan and Zhou Man and their families because they reported on him, what about those people who wrote a letter to impeach him?
Where are the people like Wei Zhi, Ji Xiang, and Mr. Old Tang who are leading the investigation into this matter?
Shouldn't they all be killed?
So at the suggestion of many ministers, the emperor dispatched the imperial army and began to remove the nails and manpower left by King Yizhou in the capital.
The abandoned Princess Yizhou, Princess Yunfeng, and Prince Xinqing, the youngest son of Prince Yizhou, were temporarily detained in the palace. Originally, the only ones imprisoned were King Yizhou and his two adult sons. Princess Yizhou was
Although those who live with the Queen Mother cannot enter or leave the palace, they can still walk freely in the palace.
If you feel bored after dinner, you can take a walk in the garden.
But as soon as King Yizhou escaped, the three of them, mother and son, were imprisoned.
Princess Yunfeng's fear reached its highest point and she kept crying. However, this time even the palace attendants in the Queen Mother's Palace would not comfort her anymore, but avoided the palace where she was imprisoned.
The Queen had been overworked during this period and her brain was throbbing with pain, but she still made arrangements so that the palace people were not allowed to bully Princess Yizhou and her family, and they were just locked in the palace and not allowed to come in or out.
The prince brought the medicine up, waved his hand to let the servants go in, and said unhappily, "Why bother about them, mother? With the emperor's grandmother here, the emperor's uncle will lose power, and the palace people will not dare to bully them."
The queen took the medicine and drank it in one gulp, and said with a smile, "It's just an extra instruction, just in case."
The prince snorted and saw that the queen's face was not good-looking, so he lowered his voice and said, "Mother, it's better to bring Zhou Manxuan into the palace and let her serve you personally. I see that your eyes are turning blue again, but these few nights
Can’t sleep well again?”
The queen shook her head and said, "The case is not over yet. If she is brought into the palace now, I am afraid it will affect the judgment of the ministers. Xiao Yuanzheng is very good at it."
"But isn't Xiao Yuanzheng at the imperial grandmother's place? He can't consult you every day," the prince said unhappily. "It's a certainty that the King of Yizhou will raise private soldiers, and now he's running away again."
It’s obvious what you want to do, why are you afraid of affecting your judgment?”
He said, "Those courtiers don't dare to do anything on weekdays. They just like to speculate on their superiors' intentions. Even if it is a very simple matter, they have to figure out ten different meanings. If you want to know what your ministers mean, you can do anything now."
Don't worry about it, just rest in peace and recover in the palace. I'll bring her into the palace. If you don't mind her inconvenience, you might as well live in the palace."
When the queen saw that he was irritable, she sighed, "You, you are living longer and longer. You used to think about things, but now you act recklessly and think too much about things you shouldn't..."
When the prince heard her talking again, he couldn't help but get up and want to leave.
The queen took his hand and said, "Okay, mother, don't tell me. I have asked your third brother to prepare. When the matter with King Yizhou is settled, he will go and seize the vassal. You can also accept your own."
temper."
Seeing that he lowered his eyes and said nothing, the queen sighed and said, "Da Lang, nothing in this world is perfect. You are a good boy. Your father and ministers have always loved to praise you since you were a child. You have always been kind and understanding."
Advice, don’t change your temper just because of some setbacks.”
The prince said expressionlessly, "Mother, please rest, I will leave first."
The queen looked at the prince sadly and turned away.
After leaving the palace, the prince was so angry that he couldn't help but whipped the palace wall fiercely, then pulled the horse and left.
This scene happened to be seen by a censor who was just about to leave the palace. He shook his head in disappointment and decided to impeach the prince tomorrow.
As a prince, it doesn't matter if he is full of joy or anger, but he is still beating the palace wall at the entrance of the palace. If people see it and spread the word, what will others think of His Highness the Crown Prince of Jin Dynasty?
The prince rode out of the imperial city. The guard behind him asked, "Your Highness, where are you going?"
The prince said, "Go to Jishi Hall."
The guard knew what he was going to do and immediately said, "Your Highness, the little miracle doctor Zhou should be at home at the moment."
The prince frowned, reined in his horse and asked, "Where is her home?"
The guard didn't know it at first, but there was a big fuss about their assassination yesterday. When he went to play with his brother in the Forbidden Army, he heard about it and immediately said, "It's in Changqing Lane."
