After leaving the Yang Mansion, Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu did not stay outside and went directly back to the Han Palace.
The situation in the capital became increasingly tense. Along the way, Bai Ling lifted the curtains and could always see carriages pulling many boxes, obviously traveling far away.
There were also many people holding swords. Although they were scattered, they looked like they had been trained, and they had a bit of a wild army feel.
"I will enter the palace tomorrow. I am alone, so I am not afraid of encountering danger. But you are not necessarily safer outside than I am.
I'll leave some more poison for you. Don't save it for me when necessary. There's no need to let it go to waste." After returning home, Bai Ling took Shangguan Yu to the pharmacy and kept pouring out the poison.
This time, Bai Ling didn't even bother to prepare the medicine, and specially prepared the poison that would seal the throat after seeing the blood.
Shangguan Yu did not stop him. When the danger really came, using poison to protect himself could indeed reduce his own casualties.
Although the Princess of Han has a secret passage, she cannot use it easily, otherwise she will be jealous of the royal family.
The imperial court has expressly stipulated that secret passages are not allowed in the residences of ministers. This is to prevent people from breaking the court laws and then leaving through the secret passages.
But everyone has the desire to survive, so they naturally build secret passages in private.
However, it is not easy to build a secret passage directly out of the capital.
Not to mention the large amount of work, nearby properties must be purchased to prevent it from being connected to other people's secret passages and causing more serious disasters.
"Over at the Bai Mansion, I have temporarily put most of the treasures into the space. If an accident really happens, you don't have to worry. I have already given instructions. When encountering danger, it is more important to keep everyone alive. Don't worry.
Property damage." Bai Ling said.
"Okay, listen to Ling'er." Shangguan Yu took half a step forward and hugged Bai Ling from behind. "They may not take action tonight, but they will definitely take action at the latest on the third day after you detoxify the emperor."
After looking at the stack of prescriptions, Bai Ling stopped taking any more poisons.
"Fetch the eldest sister and the others over here." Bai Ling thought for a moment and then said, "You and your mother and concubine should discuss it. If it's not difficult, find a name and bring the two elders of the Qin family over."
General Qin and his son are not in the capital, leaving only two old men, so the danger is very high.
Now that the two families are also relatives, Bai Ling doesn't want Qin Xuerou to have to keep filial piety to her two elders after she returns to Beijing.
Historically, when forced uterus occurred, the minister's family members would be in bad luck, so they had to take precautions.
"Okay." Shangguan Yu responded.
The current situation was unstable and something bloody was about to happen. The couple did not have the time to chat leisurely. It was a kind of happiness to just embrace each other like this.
Moreover, when Bai Ling enters the palace, he will almost always stay by the emperor's side. As long as the emperor is not killed, Bai Ling does not need to hide in space and can still be safe.
But Shangguan Yu is responsible for the safety of the entire Han Dynasty, and even his relatives and friends.
Moreover, Shangguan Yu chose to cooperate with the Sixteenth Prince, so it was impossible to do nothing at this time.
It was night, Bai Ling took advantage of the space and took Shangguan Yu to the Sixteenth Prince's Mansion.
However, Bai Ling did not show up. Instead, he stayed outside to guard Shangguan Yu, and did not listen carefully to the conversation between the two.
After midnight, Shangguan Yu walked out of the study, but the sixteenth prince did not come out to see him off.
Choosing a deserted place, Bai Ling brought Shangguan Yu into the space and asked, "Do you want to go somewhere else?"
"No need." Shangguan Yu shook his head, pinched Bai Ling's face and said: "We, the Han Palace, are not suitable to directly participate in the internal battles of the royal family. I have no reservations about the clues that should be given. If the sixteenth prince does nothing,
, then he will not be able to compete for the position of crown prince."
"Perhaps not fighting is the best?" Bai Ling tilted his head.
"If the emperor is in good health and the sixteen princes do not fight, it will be in line with his wishes. But now, the emperor knows that his end is approaching and he does not have much time to train the prince. He will never let a son with no achievements to inherit the throne, otherwise he will definitely
It will destroy the Eastern Han Dynasty." Shangguan Yu explained.
Bai Ling nodded in understanding. She really didn't understand the tricks played by politicians, and she had no intention of playing politics.
"You don't need to pay attention to these things. In your eyes and in your heart, just pretend to be a handsome man named Shangguan Yu." Shangguan Yu deliberately changed the topic. After all, it would be inconvenient for Bai Ling to leave the palace in the next three days.
Although the purpose of detoxifying the emperor is to torture the emperor and deepen his poison, we must be prepared to prevent others from secretly poisoning him.
After all, Bai Ling was nominally detoxifying the emperor. If the emperor died at this time, someone with intentions would definitely take advantage of him and not give Bai Ling a chance to prove his innocence.
It is okay to murder the emperor, but you must never admit the crime.
"Shangguan, let's go back to Nanshan Village after the matters in the capital are settled. I know you need to return to the military camp as soon as possible, but I want to go back there to relax and just stay for a day or two." Bai Ling
After laughing, he said a little tiredly.
The replacement of imperial power is an inevitable process in history.
But when it comes to coups, countless people have to go to the guillotine.
Even though many people died unjustly, who can guarantee that no innocent person will be implicated and die in vain?
The so-called killing of the whole family, or the execution of nine tribes, will not let go of the old man or the infant.
As a modern soul, Bai Ling did not want to see such a bloody scene.
"Okay." Holding Bai Ling in his arms, Shangguan Yu said softly: "Three Chao's return home, although it is a little late, I don't think my parents will blame me."
Shangguan Yu could not say that if he stayed with Bai Ling in Nanshan Village for a few more days, there were still things to deal with in the army, and the whereabouts of the King of Han had to be continued.
Even if the imperial power does not change, Shangguan Yu still has many things to be busy with.
It's just that the current situation is special and I have to spend some time in the capital.
"No, although my parents are from farmers, they are both kind-hearted people, so why would they embarrass the younger generation? No matter when you and I go back, they will only be happy." Bai Ling yawned with a look of confusion.
He said, "I'll take a squint for a while and then go check on Bai Wei."
"Yeah." Shangguan Yu nodded. Although he didn't like Bai Wei, he didn't have any deep hatred for her.
After all, Bai Wei left home out of anger, but she had no intention of harming Bai Ling.
Otherwise, given the blood relationship between the two, Bai Wei has many ways to make Bai Ling fall into the trap unknowingly.
Even if Bai Ling can protect himself, there will still be a risk of exposing his space.
"By the way, you should connect Chu Wen to the palace. There are so many empty courtyards. You can place them wherever you like. Uncle Chu and Aunt Chu, he is just a son, and he is doing things for me, so he will stay in the capital.
, but nothing can go wrong.”
Bai Ling said, rubbed Shangguan Yu's arm, found a comfortable angle, and murmured: "Hug me to bed. I'm tired and don't want to move."
Shangguan Yu looked at the tired Bai Ling with pity. During this period, her mental power had been highly concentrated and she really needed a good rest.
The couple slept until they woke up naturally, and then Bai Ling went to see Bai Wei.
During this time, Bai Wei has been living in the space, which is a small farmhouse with a separate courtyard.
Although she didn't see her neighbor, Bai Wei didn't ask where she was, but she resumed her life as a farm girl, and was very busy every day.
As for the wound medicine given by Bai Ling, Bai Wei did not use up the required amount, as if she wanted to leave a faint scar intentionally to remember the mistakes she had made.
It's just that Bai Wei's temper has calmed down a lot, and she is no longer like she used to be, trying to argue over everything. (To be continued)
