Because they had been notified in advance, the handover went smoothly. After a few simple greetings, Jiusi handed over the batch of grain and grass to General Zhuang.
Except for military prostitutes, there are no women in the army. Naturally, it is not easy for them to stay in the military camp for a long time. As soon as the food and grass were handed over, she left with Twelve Months.
This was a rare occasion, so they didn't leave here immediately. Instead, they went to Guancheng, not far from here, to experience the rough beauty of the border.
For example, tall and wildly beautiful women, big and delicious pancakes, big chunks of meat and big bowls of wine, and high-quality and cheap furs and jade...etc.
Of course, how can a place like Border Gate be only peaceful? It has a beautiful side and a sad side.
Jiusi stayed here for more than a month, and encountered such things as sieges twice, not to mention other small robberies. Such things happened in villages almost every day.
Because they all operate in small groups and use sneak attacks, the patrols always arrive late at night. Those who are lucky can still survive, but those who are unlucky may not even be able to save a single person alive. It can be said that
Extremely tragic.
When something like this happened, other Jiu Si could not do anything. All she could do was to keep fighting back and chase the enemies into their interior.
For this reason, she deliberately dispersed the enemy for twelve months, using an encirclement method to continuously attack the enemies until they no longer dared to disperse and attack the people at the border.
She didn't start returning to Beijing until the border war was about to break out, the people began to retreat in accordance with the instructions, and this place was about to become a battlefield.
Originally, she had no intention of returning to the capital. She even had her yard in the south of the Yangtze River tidied up for her to live in. However, due to an imperial edict from the emperor, she was forced to return to the capital.
There was nothing else in the imperial edict, except that the Supreme Emperor was suddenly poisoned and fell into a coma. Lin Daiyu went to the palace to visit Jia Yuanchun and became the one who poisoned her. A scabby monk also appeared in the capital.
Lin Daiyu's visit to the palace to visit Jia Yuanchun was probably either at the request of the Jia family or because it was a trap set up by the emperor. Even if she was plotted against, she asked for it herself.
She didn't care much, nor did she care whether she would endure hardship. What she cared more about was the leprosy-headed monk the emperor mentioned at the end.
At the beginning, she risked being killed by Heaven and got rid of Taoist Pozu and Jinghuan Fairy just because she was afraid that with them around, they would come out and cause trouble and ruin her plan.
At that time, she was still thinking that she was missing a leprosy-headed monk and felt regretful that everything could not be resolved. She was also thinking about where to find him. Unexpectedly, he jumped out on his own.
But this guy is also very timid. Those two guys are terrible, but this scabby monk still dares to take the lead. The plot is really hard to change!
She definitely had to go back to Beijing, but she didn't bring so many people with her. Except for January and February, she sent the other ten people to Jiangnan to pave the way for the subsequent retreat.
As for those people in the capital, except for her true confidants, she had already set them free when she left the capital, and now I am afraid they have already left the capital.
Thinking of the inconvenience after returning to Beijing, Jiusi had a headache: "Well, if I had known that I would have to go back, I wouldn't have evacuated people first, and let people lurk first. It would be better than having no one available now."
Hearing this, Yiyue asked with some confusion: "Is it possible that the girl has to stay in Beijing for a long time?"
When Jiusi heard her question, he simply shook his head: "That's not true. I've had enough of that place in the capital. I have to play tricks on others every day to survive. How tiring it is!"
We will withdraw as soon as the matter is settled."
Seeing her like this in February, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Since we don't have to wait long, it doesn't matter if we have those people. We can just use some special methods to find out the news."
It's best to do things in the capital, where there's a mixed bag of good and bad people. As long as you have money and ability, why don't you worry that you won't be able to get the information you want?"
After Jiusi heard this, he thought about it carefully and said: "That's true. I got it wrong. Then you can make arrangements when I get back!"
After hearing this, the two of them responded in unison: "Yes, the slaves promise to handle things beautifully for the girl."
Since the matter was urgent, the three of them didn't waste much time. Except for taking a break when they were tired, they basically kept running at full speed the whole time.
As soon as they entered the capital, Jiusi and the others didn't even have time to find a place to wash up. They were taken into the palace by a carriage waiting at the city gate.
When they arrived at the gate of the palace, the three of them could not get off the carriage and were sent directly to the residence where the Supreme Emperor lived. This shows how anxious the emperor was.
But this also made Jiusi understand one thing, that is, the fact that the Supreme Emperor was poisoned may be true. It may not necessarily be a trap set by the emperor. I am afraid there is something else in between, that is, he does not know whether Lin Daiyu and the Jia family are involved.
What role does it play in this process?
As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the palace, before she could ask any questions, someone from the palace quickly led her to the side hall. Then, they quickly bathed and changed her clothes. After dressing her up quickly, they took her to the Supreme Emperor.
In the bedroom.
Jiusi:…………
By the way, since I have to shower and change clothes, can't I be allowed to freshen up outside before I come back?
He insists on coming out in such a hurry, as if he will be safe this way. If I really want to kill him, it's useless even if you let me wear a single piece of clothing!
Although she kept complaining in her heart, she still had that expressionless look on her face. In order to express her dissatisfaction, she even rolled her eyes rudely several times and looked at the eunuchs and maids standing next to her.
, so scared that he didn’t even dare to raise his head.
When she arrived at the palace, she did not see the emperor as expected, but the queen.
Seeing her coming, she hurriedly greeted her: "Stop being so polite and come and see what kind of poison my father has been poisoned by? Is it possible to cure it?"
Jiusi:…………
Jiusi wanted to say that I didn't want to salute you. After all, I don't need to salute now when I see the emperor, let alone you as a queen.
But seeing the anxious look on her face, he knew it was not the time to say this, so he swallowed the words back.
She patted the other person's hand and signaled her to let go of her arm first, and then stepped forward to check the pulse of the Supreme Emperor on the hospital bed: "My queen, please be patient and wait until I take the pulse of the Supreme Emperor. I'm not watching."
I can't make a conclusion for you until I know what the situation is."
Then, she turned to the waiting imperial doctor and asked: "I just came back and I don't know the specific situation. Please tell me your previous symptoms first, so that I won't make a wrong judgment next time."
The queen also knew that this matter could not be urgent, so she could only suppress her anxiety and send someone to notify the emperor while waiting nearby.
As for the imperial doctors waiting by the side, they have been living in fear since the Supreme Emperor was poisoned and fell into coma. Every day they were either observing the Supreme Emperor's condition, thinking of solutions, or kneeling there to beg for mercy.
There is nothing we can do without begging for mercy!
