Chapter 74
Chapter 74
Zhao Wang had an accident and did not return overnight, which made Zhao Wang's mansion very worried.But now that the city is closed, they can't even go out of the house.If they step out, King Zhao will come back safely, and they will be severely punished!But King Zhao never came back, which is really worrying.
After daybreak, the people of King Zhao's Mansion beat the gong in the mansion to let the forbidden army come to the door, and told the forbidden army the news that King Zhao had not returned overnight.
Commander Ye received the news at noon yesterday, and after explaining everything to his subordinates, he went back to Ye's house for isolation.He started feeling unwell today, besides him, the servants serving Ye Silang and Ye Wulang in the mansion were also infected with the plague.
Commander Ye was locked in the house with his two sons, and he took care of the two children himself.
Hearing the knock on the door, Commander Ye got up and walked to the door, and asked through the door, "What's the matter?"
"King Zhao is missing, and he didn't return last night. Do you want to send someone to look for him?"
"Look! Find King Zhao and kill him directly!" Commander Ye was really angry.
"Huh?" The people outside were obviously frightened.
Commander Ye took a breath, regained his composure, and changed his words: "Send someone to pass the news into the palace, and the ministers will also inform you. As for King Zhao, send someone to look for it! After you find it, control it and bring it directly into the palace. Imprisoned in the palace!"
"Does this have His Majesty's will? Or arrest Zhao Wang's documents?" After all, he is a vassal king and holds military power in his hands.
His head began to ache, Commander Ye covered his head, gritted his teeth and said to the outside: "This is a secret order! The current plague in the capital is caused by King Zhao!"
"It turned out to be the work of King Zhao! It's disgusting! After you catch it, can you beat me up?" The people outside the door became excited.
"It's okay to fight, but you have to save your life." Director Wang said in the letter that Zhao Wang's ability to use the plague|epidemic as a political means shows that the other party has the ability to control the plague|plague!
"understand!"
Commander Ye returned to the inner room, Ye Silang and Ye Wulang looked listless and stared at him blankly.
"Father, how long are we going to be locked in the house like this? I really want to see and play with Your Majesty." Ye Wulang asked Commander Ye aggrievedly.
I don't feel well, and being locked in the house is so uncomfortable.It was snowing outside, and he really wanted to play in the snow.The little emperor ordered people to make a lot of molds for playing with snow, and said that when it snowed heavily, he would build a ski resort in the palace.Then they can have fun!
Although Ye Silang didn't speak, he had the same thoughts as his younger brother, and the two brothers looked at Commander Ye aggrievedly.
Commander Ye felt uncomfortable, put his arms around his two young sons, and said in a low voice, "When we recover, Dad will play with you!"
"I don't want to play with Dad, I want to play with Your Majesty. Your Majesty is smart and funny. Playing with him makes me happy every day." Ye Wulang pursed his mouth and cried.
Commander Ye sighed, wiped his son's tears, and said, "When you recover, you will enter the palace to play with His Majesty."
Originally, the two younger sons were allowed to enter the palace to play with the little emperor, but unexpectedly, it was the little emperor who was playing with his two sons.These two sons really regarded the little emperor as a good friend.After only two days without entering the palace, he began to feel emotional and miss the little emperor.Commander Ye worried about the future of his two sons.
Before Qi Erniang and Liang Wang came to northern Xinjiang, they encountered suspicious people on the way.
"There are a lot of refugees. They seem to come from the north. They have never heard of any natural disasters in the north. How could there be a large number of refugees?" Liang Wang felt strange.
Qi Erniang observed carefully and found that although these people were dressed as refugees, their eyes were alert, their walking speed was not slow, and they were all strong and strong, with dark and rough skin.
She frowned and said, "No, these people have problems. Drive the car over there and try hitting them."
Liang Wang was surprised: "Crash it over? What if it hurts someone... We must keep a low profile during this trip, and we can't act like this..."
"Qi suspects that they are members of the army." Qi Erniang had a bold guess, and her whole heart began to hang.
Liang Wang:! ! !
Startled by Qi Erniang's words, Liang Wang reacted, and quickly ordered the driver in a low voice to act according to Qi Erniang's words.
The coachman tugged on the reins and hit the horse in the eye.The horse immediately panicked, couldn't see the way, and was about to scurry, but the coachman controlled the direction forcefully, and the carriage ran towards the refugees.
Qi Erniang and Liang Wang held on to the carriage, and fixed their eyes on those people.
"Get out of the way!"
Among the refugees, someone yelled loudly, and the people who were originally in groups of three or four quickly dispersed around.Quick and agile.
Qi Erniang's face darkened, she increased her strength, and tightly clasped the handrail on the inner wall of the carriage.
Liang Wang looked outside, then turned his head to look at Qi Erniang, and found that the other party's face was ugly, and his complexion began to turn pale.
These people really have problems!It's a soldier!
They came from the north, dressed up in disguise, and sneaked into Gyeonggi secretly. They definitely have big plans!
After the carriage passed through the crowd and passed two streets, the horse regained its composure.
"Are those the northern border army?" King Liang asked Qi Erniang.
Although Qi Erniang is a woman, Director Wang sent her to help, which shows that she is trusted by the little emperor and Director Wang.Behind her, Commander Ye and the Qi family supported her, and King Liang had always been more polite to her.Now that such a big event has been discovered, King Liang can't make up his mind, so he naturally wants to ask her what she means.
Qi Erniang shook her head, with a solemn face, and ordered the driver outside: "Drive the car to a secluded place."
"Quick!" Liang Wang also knew that this matter should not be known to outsiders.
When the carriage arrived at a remote place, the coachman and accompanying guards got off the carriage and stood guard around the carriage.
Only Qi Erniang and Liang Wang were in the car.She said to King Liang in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness, there are at least a hundred suspicious people we met today. This place is only three cities away from Northern Xinjiang. If they don't go by water, they must pass here. It's better to send someone Go and find out how many 'refugees' have passed here in the past few days."
"Then should we send the news back to the capital first?" King Zhao asked.
"Send the news back to the capital and send it directly to my father! I will write a family letter in the Qi family's cipher text, and outsiders will not know it. My father knows that there are troops secretly sneaking into the capital, so he must be vigilant and control those rebels!" Qi Erniang said, Quickly took out the paper, pen and ink, and started writing a letter.
Liang Wang probed out and ordered the coachman to inquire about the news.
Two quarters of an hour later, the coachman came back and told King Liang: "Your Highness, before we entered the city, there were at least a thousand refugees who passed by here. Besides, Xiao Nu also found out that it is hard to buy a boat ticket for the waterway! It has been seven Today, everyone can't buy a boat ticket to go south!"
"What about the cargo ships? Has the number of cargo ships increased?" Qi Erniang suddenly probed out to ask.
"There are a lot of cargo ships passing Danpi City these days."
"Not good!" Qi Erniang got excited and broke the pen in her hand.
"The cargo ship is suspicious?" Liang Wang asked her with a stiff face.
"Those people passing through the city did not hold weapons and armors. Weapons, armors and clothing must be transported by cargo ships! Also, the fact that they have not been able to buy tickets to the south in the past few days is enough to show that the soldiers are divided into two groups. Go south by water all the way, and reach Gyeonggi faster! Even if we send news of this matter back to Beijing, we won’t be able to catch up!”
Qi Erniang's face was gloomy.It would take seven or eight days at the fastest to spread the news to the capital.In the past seven or eight days, the first batch of Northern Xinjiang rebels who traveled to Gyeonggi by water have already arrived and lurked near Gyeonggi!
Liang Wang asked in a low voice with a pale face, "Then what should we do?"
Qi Erniang was also anxious and anxious, and did not respond to King Liang.
After a while, after clearing her mind, Erniang Qi told Liang Wang: "This place is very close to the northern border, we have to rush all night! Quickly go to the northern border to capture the people of King Zhao's mansion! Capture the son of King Zhao! Then, His Highness King Liang Take King Zhao's son back to Beijing as a bargaining chip to threaten King Zhao!"
King Liang nodded, and after realizing it, he asked, "What about Madam Qi?"
"Give the tiger talisman to Qi, and Qi was ordered to stay in northern Xinjiang to manage the northern army." Now that such a big thing happened, Erniang Qi didn't plan to hide it from King Liang anymore.
Liang Wang opened his mouth and closed it again.No wonder the little emperor gave him the tiger talisman easily, it turned out that it was not for him at all, but for Erniang Qi.It's just that Qi Erniang is a woman, if she really leads the army, how will the people of the world discuss it, and how will the court react?
But these are not his worries.Originally, this trip was to investigate the evidence of King Zhao's treason.Now that he found out that the other party was raising troops to rebel, King Liang naturally wanted to rush back to stop him.
Taking out the Tiger Talisman, King Liang was about to give it to Erniang Qi, but suddenly took it back, staring at Erniang Qi and asked, "It's not that I don't believe what Madam Qi said. The Tiger Talisman is so important, I can't give it to others at will."
Qi Erniang had no choice but to take out the decree and show it to King Liang.
After reading it, King Liang handed over the tiger talisman to Erniang Qi.
"My lord, just now a carriage lost control and almost hit our team."
"Let people follow the carriage and burn it. As for the people on the carriage, if they become pieces of meat, throw them into the mountains to feed wild animals."
The young man in his early twenties took a sip of the wine fed by the beauty beside him after speaking.
"As ordered."
A middle-aged man walked in and reported the situation to Prince Zhao: "The patient has been brought into contact with the Forbidden Army in the capital camp. Soon, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army will be infected with the plague|plague."
"Okay!" Prince Zhao laughed loudly, grabbed the beauty's hand, and broke her wrist forcefully.
"Ah—" the beauty's expression twisted and she screamed miserably.
The other people around lowered their heads, looked terrified, and swallowed secretly.
"If the capital is closed, Your Highness will be inside..." The middle-aged man looked hesitant, hoping that Prince Zhao's son would care about the relationship between father and son.
Prince Zhao narrowed his eyes, grabbed a wine glass and threw it at the opponent.
The middle-aged man knelt down immediately, not daring to say any more.
Since King Zhao left Northern Xinjiang, Prince Zhao's son started to do it.Using the Tiger Talisman left to him by King Zhao, he privately mobilized the Northern Frontier Army to secretly sneak into Gyeonggi in the name of protecting King Zhao.In addition, it also arranged for patients infected with the plague to attack inside and outside the capital.The capital was forced to blockade, and the imperial army was infected with the plague from top to bottom.In this way, Zhao Wang's son has a reason to attack the city with troops in the name of Wen Wang's attempt to usurp the throne and persecute the little emperor and Zhao Wang!
If their relatives had not been captured by Prince Zhao, they would not have obeyed Prince Zhao's orders.This is a deranged lunatic!Regardless of the safety of King Nian Zhao in the capital, he raised troops to attack the city for his own ambition!
