In the Duke Protector's Mansion, Zhang Yanling's sudden return surprised the Zhang family's wives and concubines. Xu Wanyi and other wives and concubines never expected that her husband, who was supposed to be far away in the north fighting the Tatars, would actually appear in the mansion fully armed.
Naturally, I was very surprised.
After receiving the news, everyone rushed to the courtyard of Xu Wanyi, the main house at the back of the house. The chatter and crying of the wives, concubines and their infant children suddenly made the main house's courtyard extremely lively.
Of course Zhang Yanling was also very happy. He was surrounded by his wives and concubines and sat in the flower hall talking. Zhang Yanling originally wanted to let this happy atmosphere continue for a while, but he couldn't. His time was very tight, and he had to immediately tell his wives and concubines that the capital was in the capital.
What happened, and the fact that he had just suspended the emperor's coronation ceremony not long ago.

Ever since, the surprise turned into astonishment, and then into panic. The room, which was originally filled with the sounds of birdsong, laughter, and joy, became silent after Zhang Yanling quickly told what happened.
"Husband, please don't joke with us. We can't bear this fright. Yes, husband is deliberately scaring us and telling us a story, isn't it? But this story is not funny at all. Husband, please don't
What a joke." Xu Wanyi yelled blankly.
Zhang Yanling shook his head and said: "Wanyi, these are definitely not jokes, they are all facts. I didn't intend to tell you this, but if I didn't say it, you wouldn't understand the seriousness of the problem. The capital will soon be in chaos.
I haven't put in the effort yet because I haven't arranged everything yet.
Once I have arranged things, I will start to find out the truth, and the capital will instantly become a bloody storm. So before that, I must make arrangements. I'm sorry, you must abide by what I say below, and don't have any objections.
.We don’t have much time.”
The wives and concubines were speechless. Zhang Yanling said it so seriously, it was obviously not a joke. Everyone listened to Zhang Yanling's words with anxiety.
"Listen carefully. I will give you half an hour. Go back to your room immediately and pack some daily things. Just bring some food and clothing. You don't need to take the rest of the gold, silver and soft things with you. All of them are locked up.
In the secret room in the back garden. In half an hour, I will order someone to escort you out of the city. You will first go to the Wild Dog Ridge in Xishan Manor to stay temporarily. Do you all understand?" Zhang Yanling said in a deep voice.
Everyone's faces turned pale with fright. The matter was so urgent and they had to leave the capital within half an hour. This shows how serious the problem is.
Xu Wanyi frowned and shouted: "My husband means, will what happens next affect the family?"
Zhang Yanling said solemnly: "Those people dare to murder even the emperor, what can't they do? Don't think they have a bottom line. I have to take precautions to prevent them from jumping over the wall. Therefore, I must send you out of the city and settle in the wild.
Only in Gouling can I feel at ease. The defense system of Wild Gouling is complete and it is safe there. If you stay in the capital, I will be distracted and my hands and feet will be tied up. Do you understand?"
Xu Wanyi nodded slowly and said softly: "I understand. In other words, you won't go with us. You have to stay in the capital, right?"
Zhang Yanling nodded and said: "Of course. I came back to deal with this major matter. I have to stay in the capital to calm everything down. You don't have to worry about me. As long as you can leave the capital safely, I can do whatever I need to do."
Things to do.”

Xu Wanyi turned to look at Tan Ruqing, Axiu and others. All the girls in the Zhang family looked frightened, frightened and worried.
Xu Wanyi stood up slowly and said in a deep voice: "I understand. Don't be stunned. We all go back to the room to tidy up and gather in the front hall in half an hour. At this time, there is nothing to say. Everything is arranged by your husband.
"
Zhang Yanling nodded slightly. At the critical moment, Xu Wanyi remained calm. As a housewife, she did not cry or ask more questions. She unconditionally believed in her husband's arrangements. As a housewife of the Zhang family, she must stand up and express her position.
No one said anything more. Although their hearts were full of worries and doubts, they could only act immediately. They quickly rushed back to their respective residences and started packing their belongings to prepare for departure.
In the house, the maids were busy packing the packages. The infant child was crying and seemed to be infected by the atmosphere and felt uneasy. Zhang Yanling felt uneasy and kept pacing in the corridor.
"Husband, we have packed up." Xu Wanyi came to Zhang Yanling's side and stood still, saying in a deep voice.
Zhang Yanling turned around and saw that Xu Wanyi had her hair wrapped in cloth and a small package in her arm, standing beside her calmly.
"Wanyi, I'm sorry for you. I don't know what to say. I feel extremely ashamed at this moment. I never thought that there would be a day that would make you worried and afraid, and that you would be forced to do this. This is my
Zhang Yanling’s failure.” Zhang Yanling said softly.
Xu Wanyi smiled and said: "There is nothing to be ashamed of. We are a family. No matter what happens, we must support and trust each other and tide over the difficulties together. Although I still don't understand what happened in the court and what is about to happen.
What happened? But I know that my husband must be thinking about us.
What you want to do must be right. When we leave the capital, my husband has nothing to worry about. However, you must promise me to protect yourself. Remember, if you live, all of us can live.
If something happens to you, even if we hide away, we won't survive for a long time. The whole family can't live without you."
Zhang Yanling nodded slightly and reached out to hold Xu Wanyi's hand. The two of them walked out of the back house hand in hand and headed to the front hall.

Soon after, everyone in the Zhang family had packed up. The servants had already hitched up more than a dozen carriages and more than a dozen large vehicles. The wives, concubines, and servants all got on the vehicles and headed for the North City under the escort of cavalry and horses.
It was noon, and for some reason the streets were deserted. There were very few civilians. The autumn wind was blowing, and fallen leaves were falling like rain on the long street, which was quite a bit of a breeze. Zhang Yanling ordered everyone to be ready for battle. If someone comes,
If he intercepts him, he will give him a severe blow without hesitation.
In fact, as soon as the carriages and horses left the Zhang Mansion, there were guards and horses in golden clothes watching and following them. But for some reason, they did not stop them and did not make any move until the troops and horses arrived at Desheng Gate in the North City.
The Desheng Gate in the North City is still in the hands of navy soldiers and horses. From morning to now, some guards and horses in golden uniforms tried to come, but they were driven away by warning shots from the defenders at the city head. Perhaps it was not time to fight, so it did not happen.
To seize the battle, the horses and chariots of the Zhang family left Deshengmen smoothly.
In the open space outside the city, when Zhang Yanling said goodbye to his wives and concubines one by one, Chen Shiyi issued an order to Tian Dongxin.
"Tian Dongxin, you will lead 500 cavalry to escort the prince's family to the Wild Dog Ridge in the West Mountain. There must be no mistakes. We must hurry along the way without any delay. No matter who blocks or chases us on the road, we will kill them. When we arrive at the Wild Dog Ridge,
After that, immediately close all passages and pull up the suspension bridge. Together with the Wild Dog Ridge guards, we will guard the Wild Dog Ridge. No one is allowed to enter or leave the Wild Dog Ridge unless ordered by the prince. Do you understand?"
Tian Dongxin said firmly and solemnly: "My humble position is guaranteed by my life. If anything goes wrong and the prince's family loses a hair, I, Tian Dongxin, will raise my head to see you."
Over there, all the wives and concubines were worried and frightened, reluctant to leave. But until now, there was nothing they could do. Everyone knew that something big was going to happen this time, and the only hope was that nothing would happen to Zhang Yanling.
An order was given, and five hundred navy cavalry surrounded the Zhang family's carriages and horses and set off. Soon after, they disappeared on the dusty official road.
Zhang Yanling watched his family leave and let out a long sigh. Now he felt a lot more at ease. In less than two hours, they would arrive at Wild Dog Ridge, and they would feel at ease. The safety issue of their family that they were most worried about now was solved.
Now that you have nothing to worry about, you can start taking action.

Hundreds of horses returned to the square inside the city gate. Just as they were about to ride away, they saw several horses galloping towards them on the street inside Deshengmen. The people on the horses were dressed in palace eunuch clothes. They quickly approached.
"The Queen Mother has a decree to invite King Jinghai to the palace. Enter the palace immediately without any mistakes." A chamberlain shouted loudly.
Zhang Yanling was stunned and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother has a deep love for my sister and brother, and she is really anxious to see me. Then I have to go. I also want to go to see this good sister of mine."
