Raiders of His Royal Highness - Chapter 148
Early the next morning.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and it is boundless, making the entire capital look like a world of ice and snow, pure and white.
Most of the darkness and conspiracy of last night were concealed under the white snow.
Horse hooves roared in the streets, and soldiers in armor galloped past. The shops on both sides of the surrounding area closed their doors, and only some daring ones quietly opened a gap and looked out.
In the second half of the night last night, when everyone was asleep, they were awakened by the sounds outside. When they heard the terrifying sound of horse hooves and fighting, they intuitively felt that this Jing Dynasty was about to change!
So early this morning, everyone closed their doors one after another, for fear of a catastrophe.
Even the ministers in the capital closed the door tightly, and did not even dare to go to Zaochao, and hid in the house tremblingly, wondering which prince was unable to hold back his anger and started troubles a few years ago.
I don’t know if it was successful or not.
If it succeeds, wouldn’t the person in power in that position change hands?
The first thing these courtiers who did not participate in was not what happened to Emperor Jing Ming, but whether the new emperor ascended the throne after the fall of Emperor Jing Ming, whether they could save themselves and whether they could profit from it…
In Song Guogong’s mansion, the young servant who got up early heard an eager knock on the door, and hurried to open the door.
After a while, Mrs. Song saw Qi Run, the commander in a hurry.
“Master Guo, the emperor urgently summons His Royal Highness and you.”
Grandpa Song stroked his beard, nodded, and instructed the servant to call Yu Ling.
Walking on the snow that had not yet been cleaned, he asked in a deep voice, “I wonder if the Empress will be safe and sound?”
Although Yu Ling had already informed Mrs. Song last night that she had arranged for many secret guards near Zhengyang Hall to protect Queen Song.
But after the night passed, many things were still unknown, so Mrs. Song was very worried about Queen Song in the palace.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa, the Empress is all right.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Song was relieved and asked about other matters, “I wonder what other ministers the emperor has called?”
“What’s the situation in the palace now?”
Qi Run had been up all night with red blood in his eyes, but he was very energetic, and even his eyes were full of clarity.
“Apart from you, Lord Guo, the rest are some prestigious old princes.”
“It’s just… Marquis Rongwei and General Zhengxi’s mansion are surrounded, and they are not allowed to enter. I’m afraid they will have to…”
Qi Run didn’t say the rest, he just gestured with his big hand with some blood on his neck.
Marquis Rongwei was the elder brother of Concubine Xiangui, and General Zhengxi was Concubine Yi’s father.
In this way, the second prince and the third prince really failed.
Overnight, the two powerful families in Beijing in the past were about to collapse due to their failure to raise troops.
In this regard, Mrs. Song sighed with emotion for a long time.
…
The neatly dressed Yu Ling opened her hands and let Qin Zhirong tie a jade belt with auspicious clouds for her. Seeing that she seemed a little hesitant, Yu Ling asked with a smile, “What’s wrong?”
Qin Zhirong fastened her belt carefully, and when she heard Yu Ling’s question, she raised her head and looked at Yu Ling’s relaxed expression as if she was not worried, after thinking about it, she still expressed her doubts: “In the middle of the night last night, my concubine was hazy. I seem to hear the noise outside.”
“At this moment, the emperor urgently called you back to the palace, and I don’t know what happened…”
Thinking of Emperor Jing Ming’s indifference and indifference to Yu Ling, Qin Zhirong was very worried, “The emperor will not punish His Highness indiscriminately again, will he?”
Before it was completed, Yu Ling was worried that Qin Zhirong was worried, so she did not tell her what she planned last night.
Moreover, forcing the palace to rebel was a capital crime after all, and Yu Ling didn’t want too many people to know about it. Sometimes not knowing, but a kind of protection.
“Remember, on the carriage yesterday, did Ben Gong tell you that there was a good show to watch?” Yu Ling took her by the hand and led her to sit down in front of the makeup room.
When she sat down, Yu Ling picked up a very delicately carved wooden comb and started combing a blue silk for her.
“Last night, Yu Feng and Yu Lang, who were not afraid of death, forced the palace.”
Gently combing a strand of soft blue silk, Yu Ling’s smiling voice also entered Qin Zhirong’s ears.
Hearing this, she was so surprised that she didn’t come back to her senses for a long time, “This matter… Your Highness knew it before?”
She didn’t see the surprise in Yu Ling’s eyes, instead she saw that she was in control of the situation…
So does this have something to do with Your Highness?
Now that it’s done, Yu Ling no longer hides it, “Under Yu Sheng’s threat, the second and third two were anxious to take the position, so they forced the palace by coincidence.”
“It’s just that this palace played a little role in it…”
The banter in Yu Ling’s eyes was too strong, and Qin Zhirong expressed that she didn’t believe that she only participated a little.
“It’s just that this palace sent someone to tell them secretly that Rou Concubine and Yu Sheng were going to raise troops last night in order to avoid long nightmares…”
In fact, Yu Ling was just spreading fake news, and it was up to them to believe it or not, and whether or not to rebel.
So seeing Yu Lang’s daughter-in-law returning to her parents’ house yesterday, she knew that Yu Lang was ready to give it a go.
