Mr. Shen recalled what happened fourteen years ago.
The late emperor was preparing to leave the capital to accompany him, so the palace was busy for more than three months. Just as the emperor was about to leave the capital, he discovered that there was no trace of the emperor.
The palace, which has been busy all the time, suddenly stopped. The palace servants and chamberlains may not notice it, but people like them who have experienced wind and rain will feel something strange.
Later, the palace officials took the prince to Fuchun Water Pavilion. Fuchun Water Pavilion is located in Xiyuan. It is an expanded garden. It takes half an hour to walk from the North Palace Gate to get there. The water pavilion is built in the middle of Xiyuan Lake. It is a quiet place.
It's a well-guarded place.
The prince has been at the prince's institute since he was born. In the past few years, he has been taught by his master every day. He will never stop classes for no reason. Moreover, the emperor and the queen only go to Xiyuan to escape the summer heat. Now the weather has turned cold. Why are they like this?
Go to Xiyuan at that time.
The Sixth Supervisor ordered them to keep silent. Everything in the palace remained as usual, and the small kitchen in the prince's room did not stop, as if nothing happened.
He felt more and more that something was wrong and went around to inquire about the news. Only then did he find out that the emperor had summoned King Wei to the palace.
Thinking of this, Mr. Shen couldn't help but tremble. It is very likely that what happened to King An will happen again, and the former emperor will attack his own brothers and sisters.
The change was too fast and came too urgently. Who would have thought that the emperor would have such an arrangement. When he was about to send out the news to warn King Wei, it was already too late.
The guards in the palace suddenly changed their faces. The emperor mobilized the Beijing Guards on the pretext of accompanying the capital. He could see that these deputy generals were also confused, as if they didn't understand why they were coming here before the emperor had even set off.
Fortunately, he knew one of the faces. When the emperor was seriously ill, Prince Wei came to the palace to take charge of the overall situation. He had seen Prince Wei talking to the deputy general.
He had served in the palace for many years, and still had some eyes. He decided to go up and have a few words with the general in person, guessing the relationship between the general and Prince Wei. Fortunately, the general became suspicious of the current situation, and he walked up to the palace.
The general came forward to greet him immediately.
"My dear father-in-law, is there anything going on in the palace?"
"Everything is peaceful, who is the general?"
"I was ordered to guard the palace gate. In a few days, I will accompany the emperor to accompany the capital. The superiors are afraid that we will not serve well, so we came here to learn from our brothers in the imperial army."
His expression changed slightly. This was unprecedented. The generals of the Jingwei already knew how to escort them, and they had to adapt to changes along the way. How could the imperial guards teach them.
The deputy general's eyes were obviously deeper.
"It seems like our family has met the general."
"My name is Wu Sheng, and I have been to the palace before."
"I remember it was Prince Wei"
"Yes, but I haven't seen Prince Wei for a long time."
"Prince Wei has entered the palace." He suddenly lowered his voice and said to Wu Sheng.
Mr. Shen still remembers his mood at that time. His throat seemed to be burning, and his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He couldn't speak clearly, but he had to inquire about each other and pass on the news in the shortest possible time. He took great risks.
Risky, because I don’t know who Wu Sheng is.
His clothes were soaked with sweat, and there must be uncontrollable panic in his eyes. Anyone who has gone through a major event will be afraid. Someone may appear at any time to pull him away and execute him silently. If his guess is wrong, the person in front of him will
Wu Sheng might tell the truth.
Wu Sheng swallowed, as if he had nothing to say.
He is also ready to leave.
"My lord chamberlain, all of us have met King Wei before." Wu Sheng's voice came again.
Mr. Shen raised his head and saw sweat falling on Wu Sheng's forehead.
"General Wu is not feeling well?" Master Shen said, "There are so many people on duty at the palace gate, General Wu should be able to take leave."
Wu Sheng's eyes flashed and he was obviously shaken.
Everyone wants to find a way to survive. Although leaving is risky, there is still a glimmer of hope.
Wu Sheng whispered: "None of us can leave, and no one from Jingwei can leave."
He was about to ask: "Why?" but he immediately understood that if any of these people wanted to leave, it would alarm the palace, and someone might take action in advance.
"If the chamberlain wants to send a message, we can't leave. The palace can still let people go. Find an inconspicuous person to leave. I will cooperate with you to let them go."
He nodded. Since there was someone waiting at the palace gate, he could naturally find a way to send someone out. However, he could not see Prince Wei and did not know where to send the news. Prince Wei's palace must be guarded by officers and soldiers.
Wu Sheng said: "I know a person. The chamberlain will send the news there. If there is any movement in the palace, the chamberlain will ignore it. Just go and see it and don't say anything anymore. Only in this way can you stay."
As soon as someone came over, they couldn't talk anymore.
Wu Sheng said: "There is one more thing. The whole Wu family, including the young and old, will definitely not be able to escape. No lives will be spared among the three clans. But I have a comrade who left behind a young son. Fortunately, I haven't received him yet. If the chamberlain can survive, please
Take care of it."
After Wu Sheng said this, without waiting for his reply, he smiled and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then turned and walked towards the palace gate.
When he turned around and walked back, he heard Wu Sheng's hearty laughter coming from behind.
As expected, Wu Sheng did not leave, nor did anything change. They all stood there, as if the situation in the palace had been temporarily stabilized.
The emperor wanted to catch everyone off guard, so he had to make the palace look the same as usual. Naturally, he would not prevent those with official duties from entering and exiting the palace normally.
Wu Sheng was right in his thinking. As long as the transferred Jingwei troops remained calm, the palace would think everything was under control, because these Jingwei troops were an important part of the situation.
They have all met the King of Wei, and they will be falsely accused of being accomplices of the King of Wei. The culprit of the palace rebellion was clearly the Emperor who summoned them. After today's incident, everyone will think that it was the King of Wei who led the Jingwei army to attack.
In the palace.
This is the emperor's method.
As expected, the palace servants he sent out successfully walked out of the palace gate, and then came back as usual.
The moment the palace guest walked into the palace door, the palace door was suddenly closed without warning.
At this time, Wu Sheng was chatting with a guard. The two of them probably talked about trivial matters at home, with relaxed expressions on their faces.
No, he saw with his own eyes that Wu Sheng was more relaxed, while the imperial guard was inexplicably nervous.
"Come here, arrest these traitors and traitors."
The guards shouted and drew their swords.
Wu Sheng and others stood there stunned, as if they didn't understand what was happening at all. The sharp blade mercilessly penetrated their flesh and blood, killing their lives.
Wu Sheng stood in front of the palace gate with his eyes widened, blood dripping from his mouth and wounds, soaking his face and clothes.
To this day, he still remembers Wu Sheng's face when he decided to stay, so determined and pure, because they did what they should do without fear of life or death.
