The 239th chapter trembling of the imperial city (3)
The rain has stopped, and a thin layer of white mist in the wet air makes the towering and ancient imperial city buildings even more desolate. Fu Jinzhan stood in front of the carved window and looked at the people hurried in the corridor inside the hall. Everyone seemed to be unable to run when they walked, and the hurrying atmosphere became even more anxious.
For a while, the rumbling sound of horse hooves swung around the closed room, as if from a torrent surging underground. Fu had no idea what kind of people it was, but it was certain that a large number of troops were coming close to the imperial city!
Coupled with the atmosphere inside the Jinxiang Hall, anyone could feel that something big happened.
As the queen, she was still under house arrest here, and the emperor was bedridden... Who would have transferred the army to the imperial city? Fu Jinzhan was completely sure that there had been a mutiny in Tokyo! Whose mutiny was? She thought the most likely was the army in the front of the palace.
Fu Jinzhan's face turned pale and she stood in front of the window for a while to think.
The possibility of a mutiny at Shao Ge'er is too small. Fu Jinzhan was under house arrest since the day before yesterday. Before that, Cao Tai and Guo Shao had been contacted, but there was no sign of Guo Shao's mutiny...
If he wants a mutiny, he will definitely be the queen's banner. He will tell the queen in advance that he can get a lot of help from the great names and many benefits.
Guo Shao did not defect to any general. The one he defected to was the queen. He did not become an emperor by his own name. He was not that stupid yet. His prestige and power were too small in the entire imperial guards. Most imperial guards would not obey him. Being emperor would only end up being attacked by a group of people.
So at least a few days ago, Guo Shao hadn't wanted a mutiny.
He heard that he was furious and started a temporary rebellion after being under house arrest? But the time was too short and it was too late.
The possibility of successfully launching a army in a few days is too small. He needs to first convince several core people with military power to reach a consensus. This step is difficult; then deploy, gather troops, and successfully mobilize troops. There are too many links, which usually requires a long brewing process.
...Fu Jinzhan thought that it was unlikely that Guo Shao would raise an army, so she suspected that it was Zhang Yongde and Zhao Kuangyin. Only these people could not grasp the direction. They conspired in private first. As long as no one rebelled and leaked the secrets during the plot, they could not let the outside world know for several months.
Now that things have come, Fu Jinzhan can't regret it... The Palace Qianshi took action so quickly, she was too late to instigate Guo Shao a few days ago. The ending could not be changed.
She reflected on herself that she was indeed losing the game first. She really didn't expect that Zhao Kuangyin and others were so brave. Before the emperor passed away, she was even clear-headed and dared to mutiny so early! At first, she thought that even if the Palace Front Office had ulterior motives, she would wait for the opportunity for panic before and after the emperor passed away, especially when he just passed away; otherwise the risk would be too great.
Secondly, she didn't understand the emperor's thoughts. One hundred people did not expect that she would be temporarily imprisoned by the emperor in Jinxiang Hall. There are so many strange things, and human calculations are not as good as God's calculations.
...Anyway, this world is too dangerous, with fierce swords and weapons. People with swords and weapons are rebellious and fearless, and the mysterious prestige of imperial power is almost gone; unless the emperor is the biggest and most prestigious warlord leader.
Fu Jinzhan was full of anger and reluctance at this moment, but nothing could be saved, so she felt as if she was dead.
What she was angry was that her enemy was so ruthless and the emperor's extreme distrust, so she was actually under house arrest! If she was still in the harem at this time, she would probably get the news in advance. If she couldn't do it, at least she could still escape quietly.
Where did you escape? Fu Jinzhan couldn't help but imagine comforting herself in despair. After seeing Brother Shao, she fled to the mountains with him and found a place where no one was hidden.
Maybe he will be found out in the end, but before that... at least he was not so unwilling or so regretful. Then he died with Shao Ge'er at the last moment, and with him by his side, it seemed that he would not feel so scared.
Brother Shao! Brother Shao...
Fu Jinzhan immediately called him anxiously. At this moment, she suddenly realized that she was not afraid of death, but was afraid of dying alone. She wanted to be with him at the last moment.
Where is Shao Ge'er?
Facing death twice, a completely different state of mind, a very strange change! For a moment, Fu didn't have time to think about the reason, anyway, she had a eager desire to see Shao Ge'er at this moment... It seemed that intuition, she felt that she could still be with him after she died, and just changed to a place and method that was unknown at the moment, such as the rumored soul.
Just like those who truly believe in gods can generally face death calmly because there is something to rely on in their hearts; if you firmly believe, you can think that everything is true.
This time, Fu was worried in his heart, and always felt that after death, he would become something, and he could not escape together during his lifetime. After death, he was afraid that he would get lost and be confused and could not find the other person.
But can you still see it?
Fu was sad from it, and a large drop of tears suddenly emerged from his curved eyes, slid across his cheeks, and fell on the clothes that were supported on his chest. A round watermark immediately appeared on the soft yellow material.
I used to be trembling and cautious, but I still couldn't escape such an ending! Then why should I be careful?
She remembered the last sentence she brought to Shao Ge'er, and it turned out that she was a little loyal when she was ordered to find the pill.
Who would have thought that those few meaningless words were the last one? It was so regretful! I was so unwilling to give it! I didn’t even give it any preparation, and it ended quietly.
This is the case in the world. When you find that you have lost it, you will regret it and remember those words that you don’t pay much attention to.
Fu only felt that the world was meaningless and had lived in vain.
She reached out and touched the hairpin on her head, which was hollowed out and filled with arsenic. No one would search her body as the queen. A white silk wrapped around her underwear in her wide robe.
It's time to determine the situation and find an opportunity to "set".
Get out of the sea of suffering, so as not to let go of your dignity and see how those thieves celebrate, and don’t have to endure the pressure and persecution of both soft and hard, and don’t have to be humiliated. Fu Jinzhan feels that he is a noble family and a queen, and he must find a way to die more decently.
Fu silently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, raised her back and turned around coldly. Seeing Mu Shanggong still beside her, she said, "Go and ask the eunuchs guarding the door, what kind of soldiers are coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Cao Tai and Yang Shiliang hurried in. Fu was stunned: "Cao Tai?"
Cao Tai said excitedly: "Guo Shao brought tens of thousands of troops to save the Empress! He has already reached Jinxiang Palace."
Yang Shiliang knelt down on the ground with a "thump" and said, "I beg the Queen to be kind to you! I also acted according to the order, which is what the official family means. I dare not resist the order, but I respect the Queen in private and dare not let you feel wronged at all..."
Cao Tai said: "Empress, even if you are locked up here by you, will still mobilize tens of thousands of troops in the blink of an eye. Anyone who dares to go against them will die!"
"Queen Queen!" Yang Shiliang on the ground kept kowtowing.
Fu Jinzhan was stunned for a while, Guo Shao came? What is impossible for a tens of thousands of troops? He can mobilize up to 10,000 people temporarily.
She couldn't believe it, but Yang Shiliang brought Cao Tai in, and her appearance made her feel that it was not a joke. Fu Jinzhan calmed down and said to Yang Shiliang after a little thought: "You are not guilty, why should you beg for mercy? Get up quickly."
"Empress..." Yang Shiliang raised his head, and looked grateful.
Fu Jinzhan said kindly again: "I know you have no choice but to stop being afraid. Think about it, how do I treat people in the palace normally? Do you treat people in the palace harshly if you make a little mistake?"
"Yes, yes." Yang Shiliang felt relieved when he thought about it, and immediately got up and bowed, "Empress, I will only follow you in the future..."
"Where is Zong Xun?" Fu Jinzhan asked immediately.
Yang Shiliang said: "The wet nurse is fine, don't worry. Your Highness is important to you, and I dare not be careless."
Fu Jinzhan pondered for a moment and said, "Yang Shiliang..."
"Hey, I'm here." Yang Shiliang nodded and said.
Fu Jinzhan ordered: "Yang Shiliang, go and bring the prince here immediately; then go to the emperor's bedroom to repel everyone, remember, everyone! Only send one eunuch you can trust there; Mushang Palace, you and Yang Shiliang go, stay and guard the bedroom for the time being. No one can see the emperor without my permission and Yang Shiliang!"
The two of them nodded in response quickly.
Fu Jinzhan said calmly again: "Cao Tai, is the North Country Colored Noodles still there?"
Cao Tai hurriedly said, "When our inner sergeant attacked Xihuamen, more than twenty died, and some were left."
Fu Jinzhan said, "You go and transfer the Northern Kingdom Colored Neighbor to the emperor's bedroom first, and invite all your subordinates to come to Jinxiang Hall."
"I will obey my decree." Cao Tai said hurriedly.
Yang Shiliang went to do business first, and Fu Jinzhan quietly reminded Cao Tai: "Although Guo Shao brought people into the palace, he can't be careless. You did a good job this time."
Cao Tai said: "It was arranged by Shao Ge'er that the family could not see the Empress, so they went out to listen to him. Shao Ge'er was devoted to the Empress. He heard that you were imprisoned and immediately gave up, completely ignoring his life!"
Fu Jinzhan's face was extremely complicated when she heard it, but what she showed was very subtle and only surging in her heart.
How did Guo Shao mobilize his troops and suddenly attack the imperial city... Fu family didn't have time to worry about it for a while. Now she regards the fact that Guo Shao's troops entered the imperial city in advance as a certain fact, and is preparing to stabilize the situation at a critical moment.
Soon, Yang Shiliang came with the wet nurse holding the prince and said, "I am afraid that he will cry temporarily, so I have to bring the wet nurse too."
"You all come with me." Fu immediately walked out of the room.
They entered the main hall of Jinxiang Hall directly from the back door, which was empty. The front door was open, and Fu Jinzhan looked up and saw that the light suddenly became very bright. Only then did she realize that the sky was clear and the sun had already come out.
"Zongxun, will you walk with your mother?" Fu Jinzhan said gently.
"Hold the mother." The little prince said coquettishly.
