In a blink of an eye, it was already the first day of the June lunar month. Huan Zhen got up early to prepare for the wedding. He usually omitted the temple and the last round, and only brought geese and gifts to Wen's house. The team stopped outside the Wen Mansion's door. The new son-in-law should dismount at the door and wait for the female head of the family to come out to greet him. However, he could not see anyone on the left and wait to see anyone on the right. From the hour of Mao to the hour of Si, the auspicious time was about to pass, and the black painted door of Wen Mansion was still closed. Huan Zhen was not good at knocking on the door and urging him, but he was anxious to wait. He came up with an idea and called Sun.

Ying Yuan said, "When you were fooled by your father-in-law's house, do you know the back door or something?" Sun Yingyuan thought for a while and said, "The back door is not open on weekdays, but the villain has a way to enter the house, but he just can't take the master with him." Huan Zhen felt that today's affairs were very strange. It would be good that Sun Yingyuan could go in and find out the news himself. He agreed immediately and asked him to go and go back quickly. Sun Yingyuan bowed and said, "If Master Wen blamed him, he would have to ask the master to plead for the villain." Seeing Huan Zhen nodding, he turned into the back from the alley.

Qian Yankai prepared wine and food for staying at home. He waited for the newcomers to come to the door, but some guests invited had come one after another. Qian Yankai was gradually unable to deal with it, so he simply came directly, but saw a group of wedding brigades standing foolishly outside the gate. He stepped forward and asked, "Master, when will the newcomers arrive? The guests are impatient." Huan Zhen said angrily: "How do I know? My father-in-law will not send my daughter out, nor will he ask me in. God knows when will the newcomers be able to be taken back!" Looking at the sky, he said, "You go back and greet the guests. If I still don't return at noon, you can buy lunch." Qian Yankai's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it out. He nodded and led his horse away.

Huan Zhen was still waiting for it. After finally waiting for Sun Yingyuan, he turned back in a panic and said, "Oh, oh!" Huan Zhen's heart sank and asked, "What's wrong? Tell me slowly." Sun Yingyuan took a breath and said, "There is chaos in the mansion. The villain found a friend of the past to inquire, but the bride suddenly disappeared!" Huan Zhen was very surprised. Where did Xue Xin run away at this time? Could it be that he was kidnapped and abducted tickets again like last time? He was going to ask Huang Degong to send a letter to the prefect of Shuntian and the military commander of the Five City,

Asked them to investigate the whole city. Sun Yingyuan stuttered, "Your Majesty, don't bother these adults." Huan Zhen said in confusion: "What?" Sun Yingyuan looked embarrassed and attached to Huan Zhen's ears. He said in a low voice: "Miss was not kidnapped by someone, but... he left by himself." Huan Zhen was stunned and couldn't speak for a moment. Sun Yingyuan said again: "Get up early this morning, and the lady went to the lady's room to see her, and there was no trace, leaving only a letter." Huan Zhen's mind was in chaos and asked casually: "What are you writing in the letter?" Sun Yingyuan shook his head.

Huan Zhen stroked the saddle with his hand, thought for a while, and said, "Take me in, I have something to say to Mr. Wen." Sun Yingyuan was unwilling to do so, but he couldn't help but be afraid, so he nodded reluctantly. The two of them walked around and finally got into the backyard of the Wen family through a dog hole. Huan Zhen got up, and was so amazed and laughed for a moment. There was no groom like himself in the world. On the day of his wedding, he actually went to his father-in-law's house to get into the dog's yard.

Wen Tiren was scolding his servants for being incompetent. Seeing Sun Yingyuan leading Huan Zhen in, he couldn't help but change his color suddenly. His old face turned red in an instant. Huan Zhen did not politely to him, but performed a son-in-law's tribute and said straight to the point: "I have known everything about the son-in-law. What are the plans for my father-in-law?" Wen Tiren sighed: "I am incompetent. If I have done such a thing, I am really ashamed of my son-in-law." Huan Zhen shook his hand and said: "We don't have to say two families. Now that time is about to pass, my father-in-law may find Xue Xin back?" Wen Tiren looked around and said: "Son-in-law, follow me."

Huan Zhen followed him to the side corridor. Wen Tiren stopped and took out a book from his arms, saying, "You read it." Huan Zhen knew that it must be the letter left by Xue Xin, but no one had ever taught her to read and write, but how did this letter be written? When he opened it, he was indeed a skewer stroke and stroke, and it was indeed like a person who was not familiar with writing. After finally recognizing the sixteen words, he said, "I first married Zhangmen and humiliated the thief again, and I can't help you. Now I have a lesson with you."

He was stunned with the note, and after a long time, he came to his senses, gritted his teeth and said, "I want to come back to her. No matter whether she has married once or in the hands of the bandits, Huan Zhen said that he would take care of her for the rest of his life, and he would never go back on his word." Wen Tiren sighed, "I am very comforted by having a son-in-law like this. But from this morning, I have sent people around to inquire, and there is no news at all." Huan Zhen said, "How could this be? Xue Xin is just a weak woman with small shoes and feet. If there is no help from others, it is difficult to travel far. How did she leave the mansion?" Wen Tiren pondered, "It's strange that I tortured the people of the sect in every way, but none of them admitted that they had ever seen the lady."

Huan Zhen paused and said, "Xuexin has been missing for several hours. If someone really helps her escape, she might have left Beijing at this moment. The son-in-law can't delay here anymore, so he will go after him. My father-in-law forgives him." He said, "The son-in-law has left, so he will leave. Then, don't you and my family have to lose face in front of many guests? I am over 50 years old and my career is about to end, but the son-in-law is rising like a sun. Why do you want to destroy your reputation?" Huan Zhen sneered in his heart. After saying that, he refused to tell himself that Xuexin had left, because it was to protect his own face. He reluctantly asked, "What should I do if I am my father-in-law?"

Wen Tiren hesitated for a moment and said, "I have a daughter in my side room. This year I just finished the year of waiting for the word." Huan Zhen was stunned, and suddenly realized that he was trying to make Li Daitao die. Without thinking, he shook his head hard and said, "I can't do it." Wen Tiren calmly instead and said, "I'm just for the sake of the connections of the virtuous son-in-law. If the virtuous son-in-law doesn't appreciate it, then forget it." Huan Zhen was about to answer, but suddenly his heart jumped: Why did Wen Tiren be so anxious to marry his biological daughter. Give it to yourself? Even if Xue Xin gets married, she will never help Wen Tiren do anything that harms her. That is certainly certain. But if Wen Tiren's biological daughter is different, and marrying her is like attracting an irregular bomb, which may be played with by the father and daughter at any time. Could it be that Wen Tiren secretly killed Xue Xin in order to marry her daughter?

Thinking of this, his face turned pale, and the veins on his forehead were protruding one by one. He clenched his fists with both hands, took a step back, and stared at Wen Tiren. Seeing that his face was wrong, Wen Tiren seemed to be unable to look at his throat. He was afraid that he would rush to strangle him to death in anger. He quickly comforted him: "I am just talking about this matter, and it's okay if my son-in-law doesn't want it." Huan Zhen looked at him for a while, and countless thoughts turned around in his mind. Finally, he slowly let go of his fists and nodded slowly. He said, "My father-in-law is far-sighted, but the son-in-law is not as good as the son-in-law, so he will handle it according to his father-in-law's wishes." Wen Tiren smiled and said, "The old man on Xue Xin will order someone to find him. Don't worry about the son-in-law. In the future, he will be able to find Xue Xin and behave like the affairs of Ehuang Nuying. Wouldn't it be nice?" Huan Zhen didn't have the idleness to joke with him at all, thinking about where Xue Xin could go? If she was desperate, there was any danger, or if she couldn't think about it for a moment, then she would be very guilty and would not be redeemed for a hundred deaths.

While speaking, the Wen family's daughter had already dressed up and seemed to have been prepared. Huan Zhen took the bride back in depressedly. The officials who attended the banquet did not know that it was strange and could not stop congratulating him with enthusiasm. Huan Zhen suppressed his annoyance and dealt with it one by one. After drinking the Heilongjiang wine, he was about to bow to him, suddenly a chief of the Ministry of War broke in sweat and shouted, "No, Lord Huan, Lord Liang, no!" Qian Yankai followed him and scolded him loudly. Liang Tingdong recognized this person , said angrily, "What are you shouting? Don't you know that today is the auspicious day for Lord Huan?" The head of the ruling official was frightened, and knelt down and kowtowed, "The villain was killed. Just now, the governor of Henan Fan Jingwen urgently reported that King Fu raised his troops to rebel. Nanyang, Huaiqing, Wei Hui, Guide, Shunde and other places suddenly raised troops together!" When the officials heard this, they were shocked, some of them could not hold their wine glasses, and the sound of ping-pong was heard. Liang Tingdong kept trembling with his hands and stammered, "This...This...What should I do?"

After hearing the urgent military report, Huan Zhen felt a little happy and at ease. He pulled off the flowers on his chest, removed the auspicious clothes, bowed to the guests, "The military situation is urgent, and the officials dare not indulge in the affection of their children. Now they go back to the Ministry of War to wait for the dispatch, which is very offensive." As he said hello to Huang Degong, the two of them quickly walked out and drove away. Before they woke up, there was a buzzing sound of camping sound in the hall. Liang Tingdong was stunned for a moment and asked someone to prepare a sedan chair.

Huan Zhen rushed to the Ministry of War and had two more urgent reports. However, it was Baoding and Zhending. The power of King Fu had infiltrated Hebei at some time. He suddenly launched an attack and launched troops everywhere at the same time, which made people unable to guard against it. Two days ago, the general of Baoding had surrendered, and the governor of Baoding refused to obey and was killed by the general. The vanguard of the rebels of Baoding was advanced to Yizhou, Dingxing area, and Yizhou governor. The military preparations strengthened the city defense while sending letters to ask for help. Yizhou is an extremely important military fortress in Baoding Prefecture. It not only has the Yizhou artifact warehouse, but also has a large number of firearms and ammunition, but also a hub for material transfer in Beizhi, Shandong and Shanxi. If there is any loss, the matter will be great.

Although Huan Zhen had known that King Fu had a bad plan, he never dreamed that he would move so quickly and would raise troops from many places in Henan and Hebei at the same time. I wonder how he arranged it in advance? It was thanks to Fan Jingwenshu who returned to Henan after he was in office. Halfway through, he heard the rumor of rebels and hurriedly sent a reply from Shunde. Otherwise, Henan would fall, and the court would still not know it. That would be a big joke. Now, all the reports in various places in Henan are probably under control. Some places in Hebei have also rebelled and surrendered. It seems that King Fu's intention is to directly lead the army into the capital from Baoding, Hebei, to enter the imperial city and seize the throne. .This plan seems short-sighted, and it seems like an emperor-in-law who is a fool. But if you think about it carefully, Chongzhen is now missing, and the prince is named the governor, but in fact it is just a puppet in Wen Tiren's hand. As long as King Fu takes advantage of this, he can give up the title of clearing the king and establishing the eldest king, most of the civil officials who are dissatisfied with Wen Tiren's bend will obey. This is different from the rebellion of King Ning Zhu Chenhao during the Zhengde period. At that time, King Ning was not enough to compete with the court in terms of public opinion or strength. He was a complete rebellion. However, King Fu now has at least had a certain advantage in public opinion.

The Ministry of War was talking about it, and most of them said that they should be urgently dispatched Xuan, and the soldiers went to quell the rebellion. Huan Zhen knew that this would not work. A war in Beijing a few years ago, and reinforcements came to Xuanda. At that time, the military pay was not maintained, and the soldiers were exhausted and resentful. It was finally easy for each army to return to the guards, but they had to stop for a few days and had to fight again. It was hard to guarantee that they would not simply surrender to the rebels. Moreover, the previous dealings against the Tartars was different. Now King Fu raised his troops in the name of clearing the monarch and sternly ruling the ruler, and the left and right were the sons of Zhu's family. Sun, maybe there would be an entire army surrendering to the past. Suddenly, I remembered that the copper-bottomed bullets that Li Jingwei had seen for himself earlier, and I couldn't help but feel even more creepy. If the rebels were equipped with advanced weapons, the well-trained Liao army would still have a chance of winning. The army in the belly had been lazy for a long time, and it was even more difficult to fight. This time, King Fu raised his troops and looked around to surrender, which was a clear proof. He called Huang Degong and asked him to go to Xu Guangqi's place to invite Vincent to come. If there was an important matter, he asked him to ask him about it.

Not long after, Vincent came, and Huan Zhen asked, "How many of them are used to install copper-bottomed bullets under King Fu?" Vincent was stunned at first, but then laughed, and said, "What kind of back-bottomed one? Nothing at all!"

It was Huan Zhen's turn to be stunned. Vincent looked at his surprised expression and said, "When Li said I could build copper-bottomed bullets, that was used to scare you. In fact, I don't know about firearms. The bullets were also taken out by Li, only seven or eight. As for where he got them, I don't know. But I have been with him for a long time and have never seen any guns with copper-bottomed bullets, and I have never seen a large number of bullets." Huan Zhen was in a mixed mind. If Vincent said it was credible, then the weapons and equipment of the rebels would not be advanced than those of the Liao soldiers. At most, Li Jingwei had secretly learned the technology of a straight rifled gun from Juehua Island. But what if Vincent was lying to himself? Or was he also cheated for Li Jingwei? Li Jingwei was mysterious and what he did could not be speculated by common sense.
