Sun Keqing originally wanted to explain according to the emperor's words, but was blocked by Zhu Qizhen's next words.

"The matter of the Sun family has not involved you since entering the palace. Sun Huaide wants to use you to invite favors in front of me. I know that the beatings are enough now. The Queen Mother has lived in the harem for such a long time. You pave the way, I know everything about it."

Sun Keqing's eyes became a little dazed, it turned out that the emperor knew it in his heart.

"If you have a child, it will naturally be born smoothly. Chengqian Palace is a beautiful place, but Qing has endless blessings in this place."

These words made Sun Keqing's doubts and apprehensions completely disappear, the emperor has already talked about this, so she has nothing to sigh about.

"It's because the concubines are not good, and they think wildly all day long, which makes the emperor worry."

Even though Sun Huaide wanted to bring Yu Qian into the Sun family's camp, Zhu Qizhen never thought of really getting rid of the Sun family. Apart from his background, there was another important reason.

That is, Sun Huaide has been sitting in the position of Shangshu for such a long time, and has cultivated a lot of talents. Although he is a bit selfish, he has made the talent team of the Ming Dynasty stronger. The capital is the only existence.

Sun Keqing also spoke at this time.

"Although there is no movement in the capital, but my father also said before that there have been more fights outside the capital, and it seems that someone is behind this."

After all, he also took out an amulet.

"Looking at the appearance of this amulet, it doesn't look like it was obtained from a temple in the suburbs."

Sun Keqing nodded. When her father sent her to the palace, she was really reluctant. In addition, Sun Keqing had made up her mind early in the morning, knowing that she was going to enter the palace, so she didn't blame Sun Huaide for it. , I don't want to have experienced so many twists and turns in the palace, but fortunately, everything is over.

"The emperor didn't know that this was originally a gadget in the Taoist temple. My father asked me to keep it with me all the time, saying that it could protect safety."

A thought suddenly flashed in Zhu Qizhen's mind, maybe a little strange, but it doesn't mean it's not true.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Sun Keqing looked at the emperor's state, something was not quite right.

Zhu Qizhen ordered people to look after Sun Keqing. The clay bodhisattva was originally in the Palace of Compassion and Peace, but was dragged to the Palace of Chengqian. When Wei Zhongxian put the previous amulet in his hand, he seemed to understand what the emperor meant. .

"No wonder there is no progress at all. It turns out that the problem lies in this place."

Even Zhu Qizhen was trapped by previous thoughts, so he couldn't figure it out.

"Immediately send more people to search all the Taoist temples for me. If you find any traces of Xiongba, report it immediately!"

Wei Zhongxian hurried to go. Cao Zhengchun was a little surprised when he received the news, but after thinking about it, the emperor was very lax about Taoism before. After all, the fashion of Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism prevailed in the Ming Dynasty, and Lao Zhuang thought was about to disappear in the long river of time. .

But now it's too late to figure it out.

"I have to rush to serve the emperor. The people from Xunlongju are not making a fuss now, and the masters of the left and right are not in the capital now, so let's arrange the people there too."

When Wei Zhongxian was about to leave, Cao Zhengchun held him back.

"Wu Shenjue Palace Emperor has the means to bring back those people, are they now placed in the palace, is there any change?"

Speaking of which, at first the emperor just wanted to use the matter of Wushenjue Palace to stimulate Zhu Wushi a little bit, but later he didn't intend to move there, since he had a weapon at hand, why bother to move Wushenjue Palace left behind.

Wei Zhongxian felt that something was wrong with Cao Zhengchun speaking at this time.

"Since you are worried, then follow me to the palace. The emperor should let you see those things, but, this Dongchang matter..."

The emperor's order is the most important thing, Cao Zhengchun will not be ignorant of this matter.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Standing behind Wei Zhongxian, Fu An's expression moved slightly.

5 Chapter Twenty

Wei Zhongxian took Cao Zhengchun to the palace, and Zhu Qizhen knew early in the morning that Cao Zhengchun would return to the capital sooner or later to see the soldiers brought back by Wushenjue Palace.

When Wei Zhongxian ordered people to open the iron house in front of him, Cao Zhengchun's eyes changed.

"Is this what the emperor meant?"

Wei Zhongxian nodded. This matter was done very secretly. From the beginning, these people were placed in Xiyuan. The purpose was to let very few people pay attention to this place. Going out, I'm afraid it will cause a bloodbath again.

"This is what Jue Wushen valued most at the beginning. If you hadn't succeeded in getting rid of Jue Tian and that person who came out of Dongpu without knowing how, and let them find a chance to reawaken these things, it would be bad. "

Cao Zhengchun also noticed that the shackles that locked these people were made of black iron. Perhaps the emperor also thought that it would be risky to place these soldiers in the imperial city. As the last shot, even if the emperor planned to be fooled, there would be a lot of losses at that time.

Therefore, even though the price of this black iron is a bit high, the current Ming Dynasty can still afford it, so it started early in the morning, which can be regarded as a solution to the emperor's confidant's serious problem.

Cao Zhengchun has been outside for the past few days and ordered people to search for news about Xiongba. Until Wei Zhongxian came up with a preaching incident just now, he remembered that the most famous thing in the world was pills, and Xiongba was resurrected when he was dying. In addition, it may also have something to do with the pills on his body. In short, people are alive now, and I don’t know when they will attack them. Many famous people directly murdered them. If Jin Yun hadn't said that life and death were not important before these people entered, maybe some people would go directly to Lin'an City to find trouble now.

The last time the emperor heard him say Jin Yun's decision, he seemed a little surprised, but this person was the one the emperor insisted on sending out, if he was not under the emperor's control, something big might happen.

"Okay, after reading it, I feel relieved. Back then, there were many dangers in Wushenjue Palace, but Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng followed me before. The purpose was to kill Xiongba. They didn't want to be in the imperial city. wait."

It seems to be out of inner resistance.

"The emperor hasn't spoken yet, no matter what happens, let's wait until the emperor makes a decision."

Cao Zhengchun nodded and went out.

Zhu Qizhen was in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, looking through the news that Yu Qian sent before, Yuhuatian’s side has settled down, but Yu Qian’s side is now broken, and people from Fengyan County have been in touch for a few days to send news back saying I don't know where General Yu took his people.

The sandstorm has stopped now.

At the beginning, Zhu Qizhen felt that this matter must have something to do with Yu Qian and the others. Before Fengyan County, it was obviously only the Gobi Desert, and the barren land did not cause a storm. Now that it has calmed down, the people of Fengyan County are relieved.

But there was news before, but now...

At the same time, Yu Qian also took people to the direction of Xizhou. After leaving the previous cave, Yu Qian ordered to set up camp. It would take three or four days for the news from Yan County to be delivered to those people in Xizhou, and by then their people would have already arrived.

At this time, the deputy general beside Yu Qian once again mentioned the matter of telling the emperor about the situation here.

"General, if the emperor knows that everything here is settled in your hands, when we go back, the emperor will definitely reward us greatly, but it has been two days since we came out, but we still haven't sent it back at all. Will it?"

Yu Qian still ignored it as before, but when the lieutenant came forward and wanted to comfort him, Yu Qian turned around.

"You are the deputy general I brought out from the capital. Fengyan County seems to be peaceful, but it has been chosen by outsiders many times. Do you know the reason?"

The lieutenant general could see that the general's complexion was not good, and he knew that what he said just now was indeed a little too urgent, and he didn't care about the general's face, but the emperor...

"Because Fengyan County is far away from Xuancheng, Fengyan County is almost an excluded place among the counties under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty."

This is very good, Yu Qian nodded in satisfaction.

"Since there are so many people watching, and Xiongba's body has not been found yet, I think the emperor is also ordering people to search for news about Xiongba. If Xiongba returns to Fengyan County and then orders people to intercept our secret letter, you Do you know what the result we are going to face?"

The deputy general thought selfishly that the general still had selfish intentions. After all, he was trapped in the capital because of a laughing quarrel with the emperor, and he was on the same boat with the Sun family. The reason was that the queen mother had the right to establish a new monarch, but the emperor was unwilling to do so. , the Sun family was forced to retreat steadily, and Yu Qian's hidden thoughts naturally couldn't be moved out at this time.

It's still possible to come out now, Yu Qian didn't pretend to be grateful to the emperor at the beginning.

The deputy general originally thought that Yu Qian wanted to suppress the military situation, at least to make the emperor in the capital anxious, but now it seems that his vision is too short-sighted.

"Xiong Ba went out from Xizhou before, no one knows why that person appeared in Fengyan County back then, so, we must be careful, when the matter in Xizhou is over, the emperor knows my plan, so he will naturally choose to believe it. "

The lieutenant clasped his fists at this time: "The last general was rude, please forgive me, general."

But Yu Qian shook his head: "I know that you are thinking about me. The emperor seems to have changed from before, and all the means of restraint have failed. In order to regain the trust of the emperor, we must pick up the old feelings of family and country again. , I understand your thoughts."

One day later, it will be time to go to Xizhou, but the spies who went out have not returned yet.

The general's worries are all right.

The night was getting darker, and the stars in the night sky on the Gobi Desert were very twinkling, densely packed like pearls that had been sprinkled all over the ground, and a few night owls passed by, awakening Yu Qian who was sleeping.

Walking to the edge of the tent, when he was about to go out, he heard a slight movement outside, and the hand that was about to be opened was put down at this moment.

It seems that people in Xizhou have become smarter now, and they didn't show up for the past few days because they wanted to relax their vigilance.

The masked men outside cut the throats of those guarding outside.

Just as they were about to continue working, the two of them raised their heads at the same time, and a firework suddenly exploded in the sky.

Chapter 521 A Moment

I had a bad idea in my heart and wanted to leave, but it was too late. I wanted to find Yu Qian’s tent before, but the surrounding tents were all the same. When I got to the middle place, I found it was empty. I thought it was really unlucky tonight. Unexpectedly, two guards appeared at this time.

It really didn't take much effort, but Yu Qian woke up early if he didn't want to. Seeing more and more people around him, he wanted to take poison, at least not to implicate the people in Xizhou, but the deputy general quickly took off the arms of the two people. Lost.

Yu Qian's face was cold, and he ordered to be taken directly to his tent.

The general's rule is to keep a low profile and know what it means to lie to others. I didn't expect to bump into two people by mistake this time.

"Where's the stuff? Are you ready?"

Yu Qian also doesn't intend to torture these two people, the purpose is to know what's going on in Xizhou now.

The lieutenant quickly got things ready.

The two wanted to struggle but couldn't carry it over, and were forced to drink up the food.

The green concoction seemed to be attached to the throat, and soon, the eyes of the two became dull. Under Zhu Qizhen's instruction, Chu Chu and Second Meng were not idle when they were in the palace. Things are still a little unstable, knowing that the emperor sent a lot of exotic flowers and plants to Ermeng, so he condensed such a good thing.

"Come from Xizhou?"

After hearing Yu Qian's words, the shaking two sat up straight and nodded.

"What's the situation in Xizhou now?"

One of them frowned, but said it anyway.

Since the third prince of Xizhou arrived in Fengyan County last time, the monarch of Xizhou removed him from the clan.

Yu Qian raised his brows, so straightforward, it seems that the prince who appeared last time was carefully cultivated by the king of Xizhou, and he was unexpectedly removed.

"So, you found our trail early in the morning and have been waiting for the opportunity to attack?"

"Yes."

The corner of the confused man's mouth was drooling. It seemed that the king of Xizhou felt that as long as the culprit was dealt with, he would not provoke people from the Ming Dynasty. So when the news came out, the king of Xizhou was so scared that he had to change his mind. Note that if the people who come over can be trapped in the Gobi Desert and cannot move, the King of Xizhou will be able to find a way to ease the war.

"Since you want a smooth solution, why do you want to kill the people patrolling the camp?"

Yu Qian agreed with the deputy general's words, this is the most ridiculous thing.

The next words opened Yu Qian's eyes.

"Because the two people who patrolled the battalion just discovered defected from Xizhou before."

Suddenly, a bad mood appeared in Yu Qian's heart.

"Is it the person Xiongba brought out from Xizhou before?"

Although this question was a bit uncertain, it was actually answered in the affirmative.

Even the lieutenant general's face became a little ugly, and he hurriedly ordered people to drag in the person who had just been executed.

Seeing the outfits of these two people, Yu Qian knew that what he said just now from these two people was true.

"Didn't you find it when you called the soldiers in the morning?"

Yu Qian looked at the lieutenant general.

The lieutenant general also knew that he must be most responsible for what happened at this time, but Yu Qian still opened his mouth to speak under the direct gaze of Yu Qian.

"General, I really didn't see these two people in the morning, and my subordinates have always watched them one by one before starting the drill. Although they have been out at night and day in the Gobi Desert these days, the subordinates really dare not lie about such things. "

The expression on the deputy general's face was very serious, especially at this time, he had to speak clearly in front of the general.

Although Yu Qian was a little shocked, he did not have any doubts about the lieutenant general.

"You get up first."

The questions to be asked are almost covered. The most important thing is that the status of the two people in front of them is not too high, so there are too few things to know. The plan for tomorrow cannot be changed, but now Xiong Ba is involved. Why is Xizhou Will know the news that they are going to go so quickly, unless there are experts in it.

The king of Xizhou said that he wanted to ease the relationship with the Ming Dynasty, but there was no news from the capital.

It seems that Xiongba is indeed still alive, and even wants to take the opportunity to continue passing through the world so that everyone in the world can see his strength.

"Leave early tomorrow morning."

This matter involves a lot, if there is any news in Xizhou, let the emperor know in time so as to prepare in advance.

The lieutenant went down and ordered to strengthen the patrol.

Yu Qian remembered the muffled thunder in the sky before, if he hadn't woken up early, these two people would have touched his camp sooner or later.

Yu Qian went to the Foguang Temple outside the city before dispatching troops, and looked at the green smoke fluttering beside the bed in a blink of an eye. Yu Qian's eyes flickered in the flickering candlelight.

The next day, the lieutenant general began to order troops, and Yu Qian also walked out at this time.

"Today is the best time for us to invade Xizhou. The news from here has not yet been sent to Xizhou. The king of Xizhou dare not act rashly. The emperor ordered that soldiers should not do anything to civilians, and they are not allowed to set fire on the streets. Killing and looting, not allowing people to take possession of the things of the people, this is a lesson for the king of Xizhou, even if Xizhou is to be turned into the land of the Ming Dynasty in the end, it must be carried out smoothly and properly, understand?"

Yu Qian hadn't thought that the emperor would have such an order before. Unlike the original provocation of the Wa Kingdom, the king of Xizhou showed his sincerity, and Yu Qian's goal was the Qiang Rong who was farther away. If Xizhou was obedient, it would naturally be okay As a buffer zone between the Ming Dynasty and the Qiang Rong, but if you are disobedient, it is only a matter of time before Xizhou is wiped out. Before that, it was only a matter of time before the power was seized in the capital. Now the most important thing is to know what the king of Xizhou is like Attitude.
