100 CHAPTER 99
Yan Rusong was able to organize people to come so quickly because he replied to Cao Jun, but the little chamberlain with the letter came back to tell him that something had happened in the palace.
Yan Rusong received a letter from Cao Jun, saying that he asked him to recommend generals who were good at naval warfare and could fight the Japanese invaders. Yan Rusong thought about it for a day, listed three or four candidates, explained the situation one by one, and wrote a detailed reply. Before the letter was sent by Cao Jun's apprentice Huang Bajin, after the letter was sent the day before, he personally came to get the letter back the next day, who knew that before he took the letter into the palace gate, he saw from a distance that Zheng Xiang had a very close relationship with the Jinyi guard commanded Tongzhi to control the palace gate guards.
It was not for nothing that Huang Bajin was valued by Cao Jun, seeing this, he realized that something was wrong, and he didn't dare to enter the palace, and after being flustered for a while, he immediately thought of going to find Yan Rusong.
The stakes are very high, Yan Rusong didn't dare to delay, and after thinking about it, he took the guards in the palace to guard in the distance, and went to the gate of the palace to find out. After all, this is a major event related to the emperor's safety, but there is no evidence to prove the incident in the palace, if he is not careful, he will be accused of rebellion.
Fortunately, as soon as the guards saw him, they were in a state of confusion, and immediately prepared to take him down, and he survived the initial siege, and when his guards arrived, they immediately escorted him and fled.
In this case, Yan Rusong understood that something must have happened in the palace, and immediately went to Beijing to transfer people, the current chief military officer of the Beijing camp is Yan Rusong's original deputy general Xie Ting, there is no need for Yan Rusong to show the imperial order, I heard that there was an accident in the palace to bring troops into the palace to save the emperor, he immediately asked Yan Rusong to bring a thousand people first, and he left enough people to go, and then rushed away.
Yan Rusong led people all the way into the palace, spent some time at the palace gate, and then rushed all the way over, and finally came to the gate of the Qianqing Palace.
Seeing Yan Rusong's figure, Zheng Xiang suddenly grabbed Wei Yunqing, snatched the waist knife of the Jinyi guard next to him and put it under Wei Yunqing's neck, glared at Yan Rusong angrily and said, "Stand back, otherwise I will kill her!" ”
Yan Rusong led people to stop not far away, staring at this side with eyes like ink.
Wei Yunqing gritted his teeth and looked at him, but didn't say anything. She is not so great, what do you say to leave her alone, let him catch Zheng Xiang or something, she didn't believe Yan Rusong wrongly, he really came, and once again saved Liang from fire and water, and she didn't want to die.
"Zheng Xiang, now that you are defeated, you can't escape with your wings, why don't you just surrender, you can also get a light sentence." Wei Yunqing said.
Zheng Xiang shouted angrily: "You shut up for me!" Since I, Zheng Xiang, can rebel, I don't spare my life, even if I will lose, I will pull a cushion! In addition to you, the emperor is still in the house, right? ”
He thought that as long as the emperor was pulled out as a hostage, he would not have completely failed!
"He's long gone!" At this time, Wei Yunqing was willing to tell the truth, "He was hiding in the house before, but do you think, why did I suddenly expose myself?" It's just to attract your attention so that the emperor can escape! Don't think about taking him hostage! ”
Zheng Xiang's expression changed, and he was skeptical of Wei Yunqing's words.
Yan Rusong on the other side raised his voice and said: "Zheng Xiang, now that you are cornered, let her go, I ...... The emperor may be able to spare your life. ”
Wei Yunqing looked over, and quickly retracted his gaze, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. If you like someone, how can it be so easy to forget? He came to save her again and again in the most critical moments, even though he had to bear her emotionally, but she couldn't hate him.
Yan Rusong is just a courtier, what can he do? It's all Yang Yi's fault.
Wei Yunqing gritted her teeth, now she is still so protective of Yang Yi, it's really ...... is a perfect example of repaying grievances with virtue, how can she be so kind? Why is she so kind? She should let Zheng Xiang kill Yang Yi now! Without Yang Yi...... She will no longer be forced to stay in the palace, and the next emperor can only be elected from the clan, and the people elected have nothing to do with her, and she will be free......
"You let her go!"
Wei Yunqing was thinking about it, when Yang Yi's awe-inspiring voice suddenly came from the side.
She was shocked in her heart, and saw that Yang Yi's head was covered with dust from hiding and falling with his movements as he walked forward, he looked embarrassed, his face was handsome and excited, and his eyes were unwavering.
"Zheng Xiang, you let her go, I'll replace her!" Yang Yi repeated.
Wei Yunqing was stunned, and suddenly shouted: "Don't come out, what are you doing when you come out?" Are you stupid? She didn't even notice it, and there was a tremor in her voice.
Yang Yi said: "Sister Yunqing, it's all my fault, it's me who saw the wrong person, I can't let you have anything." ”
Because it was his fault, he was unwilling to let Wei Yunqing bear the price for his mistake.
Wei Yunqing closed his eyes, and he didn't know what to say.
Zheng Xiang sneered: "What an amorous emperor!" Your Majesty, since you are willing to replace her, come here! ”
Yang Yi snorted: "You let go of Sister Yunqing first!" ”
"Your Majesty, come over first!" Zheng Xiang was reluctant to give in this time, and at the same time, his eyes swept away, and his other accomplices were panicked, but Xu Gui'er was still calm. His heart moved slightly, and he glanced at him.
Xu Gui'er nodded slightly, suddenly took a few steps forward, and pressed Yang Yi's arm with both hands.
However, at that moment, an arrow flew straight and pierced Xu Gui'er through his chest, and the huge force also brought his body upside down and nailed it to the ground.
All this happened too fast, and when Zheng Xiang's hand tightened and he wanted to go out and kill Wei Yunqing, the second arrow had already arrived, this time it shot from the left side of Zheng Xiang's neck, and shot out from the right side, and blood gushed out instantly, staining half of Wei Yunqing's clothes.
"Sister Yunqing!" Yang Yi ran over in a panic, grabbed Wei Yunqing's hand tightly, and looked her up and down, for fear that she would be injured.
Wei Yunqing looked in Yan Rusong's direction in a daze, his expression as if he hadn't come back to his senses yet.
As soon as Yan Rusong put away the bow, the murderous aura on his body was also retracted, his handsome face eased slightly, and when he met Wei Yunqing's eyes, his gaze paused, and he did not immediately turn away.
Yang Yi looked at it for a while to make sure that Wei Yunqing was fine, and when he looked up and saw that her eyes were fixed on Yan Rusong, he felt uncomfortable in his heart. This time, however, he didn't say anything, not even anything superfluous.
Yan Rusong quickly came over, knelt down on one knee in front of Yang Yi, and confessed: "Weichen was offended just now, please ask the emperor to surrender!" ”
When Yan Rusong shot Xu Gui'er just now, Xu Gui'er was beside Yang Yi, and if he was not careful, Yang Yi would be injured or even lose his life.
"General Yan saved me and the imperial concubine, what is the crime?" Yang Yi personally helped Yan Rusong up, and his complicated gaze turned on Yan Rusong's face, and finally moved away.
"General Yan, thanks to you this time...... Thank you, General, for arriving in time. Wei Yunqing looked at Yan Rusong, and a shallow smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
Yan Rusong lowered his head and said respectfully: "This is what Weichen should do, and the emperor and the imperial concubine have nothing to do is the greatest relief for Weichen." ”
Polite words, everyone is saying polite words.
Wei Yunqing felt a little sad in his heart, and under the pretext of changing clothes, he returned to Yanxi Palace under the escort of several soldiers.
Huang Bajin followed Yan Rusong into the palace, but he didn't see Cao Jun, and he didn't want to ask Yang Yi and Wei Yunqing, so he had to quietly enter the Qianqing Palace, looked around and whispered: "Master, master, are you there?" ”
After a while, Cao Jun came out of the closet, his face dazed: "Eight catties? What are you doing here? Before the words fell, he had come back to his senses and said excitedly, "Zheng Xiang has been arrested?" What about the emperor and the imperial concubine? ”
"Master, don't worry, Zheng Xiang has been ambushed!" Huang Bajin said excitedly, "The emperor is doing well outside, and the imperial concubine has also returned to Yanxi Palace." Today, when I went to General Yan's mansion to get a letter and came back, I saw that the situation was not right, so I went to General Yan for help, and he went to Beijing to transfer troops over, which foiled Zheng Xiang's conspiracy to rebel. ”
"Well done, well done!" Cao Jun smiled and patted Huang Bajin's shoulder fiercely, "It's not my apprentice, and it's not in vain that I value you so much on weekdays, wait for something, I will personally ask the emperor for a reward, and I can't treat you as a hero!" ”
"Thank you, master, it's all taught by the master on weekdays, otherwise I'm so powerful." Huang Bajin slapped Cao Jun's ass in turn.
Cao Jun laughed, and his mood was extremely comfortable.
This palace coup was quickly suppressed, but there were many follow-up implications. Zheng Xiang's plan at that time was to control the palace first, and then send someone to control all the important ministers in the court, but he didn't expect Huang Bajin to react quickly and notify Yan Rusong before Zheng Xiang made a move on the courtiers, which led to Zheng Xiang's fiasco. In terms of meritorious deeds, Huang Bajin and Yan Rusong are both great heroes, and Xie Ting, who decisively came out of the Beijing battalion soldiers, also contributed a lot.
And there are many people implicated in Zheng Xiang in this palace coup, and many people in Jinyiwei are implicated. Wei Yunqing didn't want to kill more, so he asked Cao Jun to persuade Yang Yi, just forget about killing those masterminds, and the others should either be officials and maids, or exiled and imprisoned, don't kill too much.
Yang Yi also listened to it, and the sentence was much more lenient, and some of the courtiers were against and some were in favor, but in the end, there were many people who agreed, and Yang Yi's will was carried out.
By the time the dust settled, it would have been half a month. Because of Yan Rusong's exploits this time, Yan Rusong's father, Yan Zhidong, asked for a decree and asked the emperor for marriage. The emperor made a marriage decree three days later, and the Jin Yan family, who had been almost prepared earlier, completed the ceremony of marriage on an auspicious day of the zodiac. The emperor sent a lot of congratulatory gifts, and the pomp was even bigger than the princess's marriage, which made the women in Beijing envious of the daughter of the Hubu Shangshu family.
In the half month after the failure of the Zheng Xiang incident, Wei Yunqing basically stayed in Yanxi Palace and did not go out, saying that he was frightened at that time, in fact, Wei Yunqing was indeed sick and had a low-grade fever, and the imperial doctor came to see and prescribed some medicine to her, so she took medicine on time every day, and Cao Jun relayed the affairs of the court, and she gave some solutions.
Yan Rusong's reply, Cao Jun also forwarded it to Wei Yunqing, she selected a young general from among his recommendations, and invited Liu Huiniang into the palace, discussed some specific things, and agreed to set off in a month, during which Liu Huiniang and the young general were contacted and discussed. However, if you want to go to sea, you still need someone who understands celestial phenomena, and Wei Yunqing explained this matter to Wu Shangwen a little, and he was very active in saying that he wanted to go, so this matter was solved so easily.
During this period, Yang Yi came to Wei Yunqing several times and wanted to see her, but she refused because she was unwell. He didn't force it, and walked away.
On the day Yan Rusong got married, Wei Yunqing's body also improved a lot, she had a letter written by Yan Rusong in her hand, and on the table was the calligraphy and painting that Tuo Cao Jun brought in from the courtyard.
Even if he has long lost hope, when Yan Rusong really got married, and from now on the day when he would belong to another woman, Wei Yunqing still felt an irrepressible sadness.
The handsome, strong, tough and considerate man was two straight lines with her, and after a brief intersection, they went in two directions that would never meet again. From this day forward, she really can't hold on to any faint hope. 166 Reading Network
