Chapter 215 Don't Do What You Shouldn't Do
Hua Chun raised her eyebrows and opened the window curiously and looked at her: "You are just from the door..."
Ruier shook her head and interrupted: "The door is locked."
What? Hua Chun couldn't understand and hurried to the door to take a look. The door of the back hall of Zichen Hall was very thick. Once locked, it would remain unmoved no matter how it was pulled. She tried to knock it, and the guards outside said respectfully: "Please rest assured, Empress, and others are just protecting the Empress carefully, not imprisonment."
...I actually need this kind of protection? Hua Chun frowned, returned to the window and reached out to let Ruier turn it in by himself, and then asked: "What happened?"
As soon as Rui'er came in, guards stood outside the window. Qingniao frowned, closed the window, and pulled them to the inner hall.
"The news I heard was fragmentary, but probably, a vassal king had rebelled and had already had friction with the prince's people. Many people in the palace rebelled, and Prince Xi was almost assassinated." Rui'er said with a serious expression: "Now everyone in the harem is in danger and is not safe everywhere. The chief guard led people to catch the defecting guards everywhere."
Hua Chun frowned and felt a slump in her heart: "The vassal king rebelled and had a conflict with the prince, which made Prince Xi almost assassinated?"
"Yes." Rui'er said: "The other vassal kings and the rebellious prince have already fought in the suburbs of Beijing. I heard that it happened last night, and it only affected the palace today. Master, you don't have to worry too much. How could the vassal king have been weak and could he defeat so many princes' troops?"
If this is true, Hua Chun's face turned a little pale: "Don't you know which prince is the rebellious one?"
"I didn't listen carefully."
Taking a deep breath, Hua Chun turned his head to look at Qingniao: "Which stupid guy do you think will hit the stone with an egg on his territory?"
Qingniao frowned: "Since there are guards in the palace who can rebel, it means that the prince is prepared for it."
"No!" Hua Chun shook his head: "Even if he is in the palace, even if his people are very awesome and able to open the palace gate, so what? The vassal king's troops are only 5,000 at most, not to mention that he will be entangled by other princes in the suburbs of Beijing. Where did he get the confidence that he has successfully rebelled?"
A little stunned, Qing Niu was also a little stupid: "What will happen if you say this?"
"As soon as the vassal king rebelled, Prince Xi was able to lead troops to Beijing to protect his troops." Hua Chun sneered: "This is a good plan, and I don't know which fool cooperated with him so much and was willing to sacrifice for him."
She guessed right, the rebellion of a certain vassal king was really just an introduction. However, the order in the palace was instantly disrupted, and the guards were all wearing the clothes in the palace. No one could tell which one was good and which one was rebellious. If one was not careful, someone would be injured, and several concubines in the palace were actually kidnapped.
This was simply a provocation to the emperor. He Chang'an brought two thousand soldiers into the palace to control the scene. The Empress Dowager, Prince Xi and the Emperor were all in Huiming Palace and protected by guards layer by layer.
"My brother thinks that my mother must be safe here. I am willing to go out with the emperor to stabilize people's hearts." Prince Xi said sincerely.
Yuwen Jie glanced at him and said, "If you want to go out, I can go out. Please help the emperor brother take good care of Tang and his mother."
Tang Guning sat on the side and looked at the emperor in surprise when he heard this: "What are you doing when you go out? It's so chaotic outside that no one can guarantee whether the guards around him are traitors."
"Even so, I am also an emperor." Standing up, Yuwen Jie stroked the dragon robe: "It's not so good to hide in this place."
Prince Xi stood up, but Yuwen Jie glanced at him: "The completeness of Huiming Palace is tied to the emperor's body."
"…My brother follows the order."
It was obvious that he would not let him go out, which was also expected by Yu Wenxi. However, the emperor put Tang here to protect him but did not bring Concubine De, which was very surprised.
When the emperor left, he attracted someone next to him and asked, "Where is the Hua family?"
The man replied in a low voice: "In Zichen Palace."
This is really something that I keep in my heart. Even Huiming Palace is not at ease? Yu Wenxi snorted coldly, glanced at the man, and said with a deep meaning: "Go."
The palace servant nodded and quietly retreated.
The empress dowager sat on the soft couch and wanted to speak but stopped. She waved her hand to let the rest of the people go out. Then she looked at Yuwenxi seriously and asked, "Why did the Prince of Chu suddenly rebel?"
"My son doesn't know." Yu Wenxi's face was innocent: "He is ambitious. Mr. Chen knows, but he didn't expect to do such an impulsive thing. Don't worry, my mother, I have already sent someone to Beijing to protect my husband, it just takes some time."
He looked at him deeply and said, "Although the Queen Mother feels sorry for you, you must not do what you shouldn't do, otherwise you will be condemned by history."
His eyes sank, and Prince Xi said unhappily: "What does the Queen Mother think is something that the sons shouldn't do?"
The Empress Dowager was silent. He should have known that he didn't need to say this clearly. Rebellion is the most impossible.
"I didn't expect that even my mother would doubt myself so much." His tone was full of sadness. Prince Xi looked at the empress dowager and said, "You have loved Erchen the most since you were a child. Now Erchen is clearly saving you. Why do you think Erchen is doing things you shouldn't do?"
"My mother just mentioned one thing, don't think too much." The Empress Dowager sighed: "At the time, the Ai family meant to let you succeed to the throne, but now that your emperor brother is already in that position, it's not easy for you to rob it."
Joke, Prince Xi snorted coldly in his heart. Didn’t the throne be snatched by Yuwen Jie at the beginning? Why can’t he snatch it now?
However, he still said gently on the surface: "Don't worry, my son is not interested in the throne."
"That's good, protect your royal brother." The empress dowager said: "The palace guards are almost unable to use for defense. The troops led by the Yuhou lacks enough, so you must draw the Yanjing defenders. You can use the people you bring to protect Yanjing and keep the city gate firmly in, and don't let the traitors come in."
"Yes." Yu Wenxi smiled and nodded.
The emperor met with He Chang'an. He Chang'an was carrying a spear and wearing military uniform, looking very handsome. However, the first sentence he said was still asking: "Your Majesty, can Concubine De be placed?"
Yuwen Jie looked at him with great discomfort and lowered his eyes and said, "In Zichen Palace, you, I, the king and the minister, can just clean the palace. She is very safe and there will be no danger."
He Changan nodded, then rode his horse forward as the emperor and queen.
"I think it's time for you to take back the military power of Daliang." He said: "Most of it is still in the hands of others. Even the imperial guards in this palace said they were the ones who chose you, but in the end they didn't know who replaced them with whose lackey."
The safety factor of the palace is too low, and it is not as good as that of the high-ranking players outside the palace.
