Sun Quan followed Zu Mao to the high wall next to the main entrance. Under the cover of night, he secretly looked out and found that there was indeed a crowd of people outside. Groups of soldiers were moving around holding torches. The atmosphere seemed tense and solemn.
In the end what happened? Sun Quan kept thinking, at this time, unless He Jin died, there should be nothing major, right?
Zu Mao on the side suddenly said,
"Second Young Master, look at the formation of those soldiers, they are a bit weird."
"oh?"
Sun Quan retracted his thoughts and continued to look outside. He immediately understood what Zu Mao meant.
"You mean, most of those soldiers have their backs to us, as if they are protecting us?"
"That's right." Zu Mao nodded. If it is targeting them, it must be facing their house. If it is a normal patrol, they will also be vigilant on both sides. But now these soldiers completely ignore their side, as if there is no one here, so there is only one There is a possibility that they regard this place as their confidant, and they are protecting this place!
Sun Quan's heart moved. First of all, he was sure that something must have happened, otherwise no one would protect him. But in today's capital, it is almost obvious that Sun Quan cares so much about him and has the ability to mobilize soldiers.
Yuan Shu, this cheap father-in-law is really nice to me.
"Let Zhou Tai go out and ask what happened." Sun Quan said.
"Yes." Zu Mao immediately went to make arrangements.
After a while, Zhou Tai returned. Sure enough, the soldiers outside were from the Huben Army and Yuan Shu's men. They did not hide Zhou Tai's problem.
"Second Young Master, I heard from outside that General He Jin has personally surrounded the residence of Cavalry General Dong Chong. Master Yuan is worried that there will be changes from all parties, so he sent them here to protect you, and said that if possible, I hope you can move to the Yuan Mansion recently. Also..." Zhou Tai suddenly lowered his voice as he spoke, "I heard that there were changes in the palace tonight."
Sun Quan's expression changed. Sure enough, his brother Qin was completely out of touch. He also vowed that there would be no trouble, and that Queen Mother He would only exert pressure in the palace. However, before the day had passed, they came directly, and they took action inside and outside the palace at the same time! The He family is going to completely destroy the Dong family! I just don’t know if Dong Zhuo will be implicated in this, or has Dong Zhuo already completely sided with He Jin?
For a moment, Sun Quan was quite speechless towards Qin Chuan. In his impression, aren't the people in Cihang Jingzhai all awesome? Not to mention the decisive victory thousands of miles away, let alone toying with the major forces in the applause. Why did Qin Chuan mess things up as soon as he arrived, and he messed it up like this! At this moment, Sun Quan had serious doubts about Qin Chuan's ability. No, we can no longer completely follow Qin Chuan's plan. It's not that Sun Quan can't trust Qin Chuan, but it's entirely possible that Qin Chuan "does bad things with good intentions." Sun Quan must completely control his destiny in his own hands!
On this day, countless people in Beijing stayed up all night.
Empress Dowager Dong's nephew, General Dong Chong, was surrounded by General He Jin's troops at his residence. Knowing that he had no way to save his life, he committed suicide in his residence. On the same day, the Empress Dowager Dong suddenly fell ill and died in Yongle Palace. The palace was in a state of silence and the whole city was under martial law. As a result, Cai Wenji's plan was aborted and she could not leave the city casually for the time being.
······
Early the next morning, Qin Chuan came to see Sun Quan as usual.
"Haha, brother Qin doesn't seem to have slept well last night?" Sun Quan said deliberately. Not surprisingly, Qin Chuan probably didn't sleep all night.
"This is today's question, please take note of it." Qin Chuan directly handed the questions and answers he had prepared to Sun Quan.
Sun Quan took it and said unexpectedly,
"Oh? You have to go to the palace today after such a big incident?"
"It's not up to us to decide whether to go or not. Be prepared for any emergencies. If you don't need it today, then tomorrow." Qin Chuan said.
"Then what does Brother Qin think of what happened last night?" Sun Quan asked.
"Don't worry, everything is still under control." Qin Chuan replied.
Sun Quan curled his lips, just be tough. Maybe it hasn't caused the worst change yet, but the direction of things has gone beyond your original imagination, hasn't it?
Sun Quan was right, Qin Chuan was far from as calm as he showed. Don't forget, Qin Chuan's real age is only about fourteen or fifteen years old. For a long-term and lasting thing like inducing the young emperor to learn from him, Qin Chuan may not be under too much pressure, but something like yesterday is enough to determine the future of the Han Dynasty. The pressure of a major and immediate incident is far beyond what Qin Chuan's small shoulders can bear.
It can be said that even if everything goes as expected, Qin Chuan will be sweating in shock afterwards, not to mention that such a big change has happened now. The so-called calmness was pretended by Qin Chuan. He was not pretending it to others, but to himself, because the more critical the moment, the less likely something would go wrong and the more calm he needed!
Fortunately, because of Sun Quan's laziness yesterday, Qin Chuan had already written a letter to Zhaili in advance to ask for help. His mental expectations allowed Qin Chuan to persist successfully. Otherwise, the last straw may break him at any time!
The two came to the Taifu's Mansion and learned that Yuan Wei had not returned from the morning meeting. It seemed that there was really a lot of commotion in the court today. To exaggerate, the ministers might even have to stay in the palace to eat lunch.
However, as Qin Chuan said, it was not up to them to decide whether to go to class today, so the two of them did not dare to go far and could only be prepared at all times. This gave Sun Quan and Qin Chuan some rare time alone.
"I will move to Huben Zhonglang General Yuan Shu's house later today. Starting tomorrow, brother Qin remember to find me there." Sun Quan said to Qin Chuan.
"Yeah." Qin Chuan nodded subconsciously. He had been distracted all morning.
"Are you moving to Yuan Shu's house?" Qin Chuan asked suddenly, as if he had just realized what Sun Quan had just said.
Sun Quan: "What?"
Qin Chuan hesitated and said softly,
"Zhongmou, can you please do me a favor?"
"Oh?" Sun Quan's eyes moved, "Let's take a look?"
Qin Chuan's face darkened and he said seriously,
"I want to know the details of General He Jin's attack on Dong Zhong. There must have been discussions within the general's office before taking action."
"I see." Sun Quan thought for a while and understood Qin Chuan's intention, "Brother Qin, do you think that General He Jin's attack on Dong Chong has nothing to do with you, right?"
"Whether it's related to me or not, it doesn't matter anymore." Qin Chuan shook his head, "It's just that based on my understanding of He Jin, he doesn't seem to be such a decisive person."
It wasn't that Qin Chuan wanted to shirk responsibility, but even if Queen Mother He really wanted to attack Queen Mother Dong and approached He Jin to discuss it, with He Jin's character, they wouldn't be able to make a decision for a while. It was unimaginable to take action so quickly, so Qin Chuan wondered whether He Jin had already made his decision, and it was just what happened yesterday that gave him an opportunity. Or, He Jin suddenly got some very conclusive evidence that Dong Zhong wanted to harm him, so He Jin didn't dare to delay at all, and immediately took the initiative and killed Dong Zhong!
"Brother Qin, do you want to say that there is someone else behind it?" Sun Quan narrowed his eyes. This Qin Chuan's intuition was not as sharp as usual.
