Guan Ya nodded, led the two maids who came out of the car, went straight into the Yang Mansion through the middle gate, and walked through the courtyard to the backyard rich in Jiangnan garden style.
She sowed a lot of wealth and brought out her confidant palace ladies and knocked on the door of her father Yang Zhengli's study. Behind the large desk was a middle-aged man wearing black fish embroidered gold thread moiré casual clothes with a green beard that reached his chest. He was holding a volume in his hand and looking attentively. Fine things.
There was a hint of joy between his brows and eyes, and he stroked his beard from time to time while reading. It seemed that he was in a very good mood, "Why is father so happy!"
Guan Ya turned around and closed the door!
Yang Zheng put down the book with a smile on his face, "It's Ce'er who brought the good news. The defenders raided the enemy camp last night and wiped out more than 50,000 soldiers of the Northern Dynasty and their money. Such achievements will definitely shock Chaoshu Happy. If he can hold Linxia and repel the Northern Dynasty, we will The Yang family is the number one family in the Southern Dynasties!"
Having said this, he suddenly looked directly at the young girl Yang Yun, frowned and said, "Aren't you going back to the palace? Why did you turn back?"
Guan Ya showed a hint of beauty and said, "The door of the father's palace is closed, and the daughter cannot go back. The Imperial City Secretary said that His Majesty was assassinated last night, and the assassin is still lurking in the palace. The Imperial City Secretary is trying his best to hunt down the assassin. Before that, no one can Entering and leaving the palace, these are His Majesty’s orders!”
Yang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed too much. Something was wrong!
Guan Ya said, "Why did father say this?"
Yang Zheng sat at the table with a solemn expression and thought for a full three minutes. Suddenly he stood up and paced around the study like an ant on a hot pot. "Your Majesty, you were poisoned a few days ago and was assassinated again last night. With the capabilities of the Imperial City Secretary, It was nothing more than a single oversight. His Majesty was assassinated twice in a row, which means that the regicide was in the Imperial City Division, and the Imperial City Division was controlled by Zheng Jiatang."
Yang Zheng took a deep breath and said with a serious face, "The Zheng family is going to rebel. How dare the Zheng family rebel?"
The Yang and Zheng families are old rivals. Yang Zheng was well aware of Zheng Wenhan's ambitions and the Zheng family's fear of the Yang family, but he did not expect that the Zheng family would dare to assassinate the emperor.
Guan Ya cooperated with a look of panic, "My family wants to rebel? What should we do?"
Because the scout used her ability to analyze intelligence and her insight into the situation, she analyzed it before returning to the palace. However, Yang Yun, the daughter of the Yang family, has a gentle and weak personality, so she has to maintain her character. Guan Ya actively explores and collects intelligence after waking up. , using the identity of the Yang family's daughter and the empress, she almost figured out the situation.
First of all, her main mission is to help the Yang family gain the emperor's trust, and the Yang family is led by Yang Ce and is determined to be in the Southern Dynasty camp, which means that her camp is the Southern Dynasty.
After analyzing the identity and camp of his teammates from his own perspective, Guan Ya believed that Yang Ce was probably Fu Qingyang, regardless of level or profession.
Fu Qingyang perfectly fits Yang Ce's identity. As for Yuan Shi's identity, the current suspect is Hun Jun.
After all, among the characters in the Southern Dynasty camp who meet the Yuanshi level, the most important one is the "King of the Subjugated Country". It is definitely impossible to be a saint. The only one who can compete with Yuanshi for the position of the Yuanshi is Xiahou Aotian.
After all, Xiahou Aotian is also the master, but Guan Ya feels that based on their hidden ratings, Xiahou Aotian cannot afford the Hunjun brand.
If Yuan Shi was Jun, Guan Ya was very relieved at first, thinking how could a mere assassin assassinate Yuan Shi. However, when she tried to return to the palace today and was blocked, Guan Ya became anxious.
The palace is still under the control of the Zheng family, which shows that Yuanshi is in danger. How could the dignified seventh-level Japanese travel god fall into such embarrassment.
Guan Ya's experience in participating in high-difficulty dungeons is neither too much nor too little. The reason cannot be speculated for the time being, but Yuan Shi must have encountered difficulties.
So she returned to the Yang family without stopping to ask for help from her father. Seeing her daughter panicking, Yang Zheng waved his hand and walked out of the court. He said calmly like a boss, "Your Majesty was assassinated twice in a short period of time. The Zheng family sealed the palace gate and did not allow anyone to enter or exit. This just shows that The Zheng family did not succeed, and His Majesty may be hiding in the palace or not in the palace."
Guan Yaya calmed down: "That's why I didn't let my daughter go back to the palace. By the way, father, I just came back and saw someone ghosting around the house, so I asked the housekeeper to take it!"
Yang Zheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately said that he planned to ask the housekeeper to come over.
Guan Ya Yingying saluted, opened the door of the festival room and called her personal maid to whisper a few words. The maid trotted away. Half a quarter of an hour later, a middle-aged housekeeper in brocade clothes hurriedly came.
"Sir, the Queen." The housekeeper bowed and saluted, and Guan Ya immediately asked, "Have you captured the thief outside the house?"
The housekeeper bowed and said, "Your Majesty is guilty of being a common man. This old servant was negligent and thought that the thieves outside the mansion were green rats. Six common guards captured them. Unexpectedly, the thieves were so skilled that they wounded the guards and left calmly."
Guan Ya frowned and looked at Yang Zheng, "What does father think?"
Yang Zheng did not answer, but waved his hand at the housekeeper to wave him away, and then said in a deep voice, "Several masters disguised themselves as traffickers and were staring at my Yang people."
He chewed for a few seconds and smiled after eliminating several guesses in his mind, "It seems that Your Majesty has escaped from the palace. When the Queen Mother chose you to be the queen, I knew she wanted to use the Yang family to check the Zheng family. I guess she is still here. The palace has a backup plan, otherwise His Majesty will not be able to escape from the palace."
Guan Ya suddenly realized, "His Majesty will definitely try to ask you for help after escaping from the palace, so Zheng Wenhan is waiting for help."
Yang Zheng stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Yun'er, please stay in my house for a while, and my father will find His Majesty."
On the way back from Yang's house along the main road of the capital, Jiang Jingwei complained, "Why don't you just go in? I'll throw a fireball over, and we will be able to enter Yang's house through fire. When the time comes, we will shout that the emperor is here, and the spies will stop them even if they want to." If we don’t stay, can’t we connect with the Yang family?”
Zhang Yuanqing smiled and said, "Then, the spies who were lying in ambush came up to kill us and fled. The Yang family came out to collect the bodies for us."
The queen patted him, "Jingwei is still a child, why bother laughing at her."
The queen explained, "Jingwei, this may be successful, but the greater chance is that you will be killed by an outsider from the Yang family. Don't forget that the gang leader is seriously ill now and his physique is weaker than ordinary people."
Jiang Jingwei looked dissatisfied, and the queen educated her: "The more difficult the dungeon, the more cautious you must be. Learn to take steps step by step, know yourself and the enemy, instead of always thinking about taking a gamble. When you gamble, you will always lose. Once you lose, the ending will be a return." fairy land."
"There are times when we would rather give up the opportunity to maintain a cautious style and principles."
Jiang Jingwei had an "I understand" expression, but Zhang Yuanqing knew that for most fire masters, these advices and educations go in one ear and out the other, and when they actually do things, they still do what they should do when their emotions come up.
After touching Jingwei's head, the queen turned to Zhang Yuanqing and said, "Gang leader, it's time for us to look for our lost teammates."
Brother Red Rooster and the Palace Master are saints. They can use props and items of saint quality to cure the diseases on the body and on the ground of the boss!
Because I was not familiar with the environment of the capital, I didn't decide on a meeting place yesterday when I dispersed and escaped. I only agreed to leave code words near where I was hiding. The odd and even numbers remained the same, and the symbols looked at the quadrants.
Of course, even if the big government officials in the capital leave the secret code for the meeting, they don’t know that the meeting will be successful, so the team has the first way to meet, which is to meet at the Tianji Building before the end of the 72 hours.
Because the Tianji Tower is a place where the Imperial Master observes the stars and worships the heaven, Zhang Yuanqing knows that the capital is too big and difficult to find. Now that the government is strictly inspecting it, he will definitely not be able to visit the entire capital during the day.
"We were still wandering around here before dusk, so we had to stay in an inn, but staying in an inn is not safe. Inns and restaurants are the main search targets of the Zheng family. The safest case is to get to Tianji Tower before the end of 72 hours." Zhang Yunqing said. .
"We rushed to Tianji Tower just to fulfill the 72-hour crisis?" the Queen said worriedly!
You are trying to wrap up the world line. Zhang Yuanqing thought to himself that there would be no way to do this.
After walking for a few minutes, Zhang Yuanqing was exhausted and went to a restaurant for dinner. After he was full, he continued to the outer city.
When passing the city gate, I saw a huge flow of people. People in civilian clothes blocked the notice board in front of the notice board beside the city gate. The crowds of people were talking and vaguely angry and cursed, "The shame of the foolish king." ".
"This is going to drag down the Imperial Guard and be infamous for thousands of years!" The soldiers with swords beside the notice wall turned a deaf ear to the roar of the people.
Zhang Yuanqing came over and patted Jingwei on the shoulder, then said, "Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way."
Jiang Jingwei dived into the crowd like a loach, and the commotion of the crowd staggered here and there. Jiang Jingwei used the brute strength of the fire master to forcefully open a passage.
Zhang Yuanqing and the Queen took the opportunity to sneak in, and finally came to the notice wall. On the wall were three notices issued by the central government. The handwriting was not consistent and they were in regular script. Zhang Yuanqing listened to the officials' recitation while reading the notices.
Suddenly he understood the reason for the people's anger. It turned out that Emperor Zhao Shun wanted to recruit 300 boys and girls from the people, hold a ceremony to sacrifice to heaven, burn the 300 boys and girls with a sacred fire, offer them to the heaven, and pray for the generals on the front line of the Southern Dynasty. .
Zhao Shun also specified that the ceremony of worshiping heaven should be presided over by the national master!
"Outrageous" Zhang Yuanqing muttered to himself.
The Zheng family was so desperate that they used this ungrateful method to arouse hatred for Zhao Shun, and then openly launched a coup and forcibly usurped the throne with the support of the national division.
With the style of a foolish king, it is impossible for three hundred boys and girls to throw themselves into a trap, so the notice is not to force Zhao Shun to show up, but to forcibly avenge him and pave the way for usurping the throne.
Amidst the shouts of fainting, Zhang Yuanqing led Jiang Jingwei and the queen away from the crowd, walked tightly through the gate of the inner city to the outer city. After a long distance, the queen said, "Gang leader, do you know the history of the Han Dynasty!"
"Have something to say"
"There was an emperor named Liu He in the Han Dynasty. He took the throne for twenty-seven days and did more than a thousand ridiculous things. Seeing that he was so stupid, the powerful minister Huo Guang gathered his ministers and deposed the emperor and established a new one!" The queen looked back at the city gate. .
"What Zheng Wenhan wants to do is similar. He wants to find puppets to disguise himself as you, then control the imperial city to prevent any ministers from entering the palace, burn three hundred boys and girls to death quickly, and then forcibly dethrone the emperor."
Zhang Yuanqing thought for a while and said, "The enemies of the Zheng family will not allow him to do this. This kind of behavior is killing the enemy by a thousand and damaging himself by eight hundred. The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will definitely object. Even if Zheng Wenhan has power in the government and the opposition, it is impossible to suppress the opposition." The only way to rise to power is through mutiny!" the Queen said.
"Only the Yang family has this ability in the court, and the Zheng family can easily get rid of the Yang family. This is the convenience of holding the emperor hostage to the princes."
"If the Yang family chooses to tolerate the Zheng family, they can proceed as planned!"
Zhang Yuanqing looked at the tall and plump queen in surprise. If he could analyze these things, it was not a vase!
Sure enough, everyone in Return of the Dead is a talented person!
"Then what do you think we should do?" Zhang Yuanqing asked.
Queen Wen shook her head, "I don't know, but from this incident I understand the importance of your side missions. Only by winning the hearts and minds of the people can you truly control the capital."
Zhang Yuanqing muttered deeply, "Let's take a step and see what happens."
He needed some time to think about how to deal with it. At about three o'clock in the afternoon, they returned to his uncle's house in the south of the city. The uncle had not returned from going out to work, and his aunt was sitting under the patio working as a female hostess.
Next to him is a seven-year-old baby, sitting on a small board. There is a pile of dirty clothes in front of him. A pair of thick little hands are struggling to poke at the clothes board, using all his strength every time.
Her little buttocks lifted up from the bench. Seeing the three of them coming back, the aunt smiled enthusiastically, "You're back. Did you find any work?"
He turned around and told his daughter to bring some water to her cousins. The little girl said "oh" obediently, wiped her little hands on her chest and trotted into the house. After a while, she walked out with two glasses of water.
She raised her head and handed the kettle to her cousin, with a timid expression on her face.
Zhang Yuanqing looked at the girl's big round eyes and touched her head, "Thank you!"
The little girl’s name is Uncle Wang Xiu. I didn’t meet her when she checked in. I only met her this morning.
She smiled shyly.
Zhang Yuanqing drank a few sips of water and said disappointedly, "Auntie, I didn't find a job!"
The reason why Zhang Yuanqing and the others went out was to find work. After all, their hometown was destroyed in the war, so they went to Liang to join their uncle. The uncle's family was not rich and could not afford to support the three of them.
The aunt also sighed in disappointment and said, "If you are strong and strong, you can go to the dock to beg for food! Later, ask your uncle to help keep an eye on it and find a job that saves effort."
At this time, the little girl said sharply, "Mom, the clothes are washed!"
She pointed to the bamboo rack under the patio where clothes were dried. Because she was too short, she had to leave the clothes to an adult.
The queen took the initiative to help dry the clothes and said, "These are your eldest brother's clothes. After I ask Xiu'er to wash them, I will wear his clothes first. I don't know if they will fit!"
"Brother?" Zhang Yuanqing asked, "Is eldest brother at home?"
The aunt hesitated, and Wang Xiu next to her said, "My eldest brother is not at home, and he rarely comes back."
"Why?" Zhang Yuanqing asked.
Wang Xiu subconsciously replied, "Brother Tai is from the Qinglong Gang. He fights outside every day and dare not go home!"
"Xiu'er!" Aunt shouted.
The queen's hand shook and her clothes fell to the ground. Zhang Yuanqing's expression of the Qinglong Gang suddenly froze. The queen's expression was synchronized, and she turned her head stiffly to make eye contact with Zhang Yuanqing.
The Qinglong Gang is an organization that Wang Geji belongs to. The Jianghu Gang aims to assassinate the unlucky king and save the people. Seeing the reaction of the two of them, the aunt thought that they had heard about the bad reputation of the Qinglong Gang. Knowing that she couldn't hide it, she sighed and said: "That bastard is so brave all day long." Ruthless, our enemies are afraid of implicating us in countless things, so we rarely even return home. Every time we come back, we always come and go in a hurry, leaving the money and leaving."
"I've been waiting for a while, but I still want to fight and kill him. Your uncle and I don't think we have this son!"
Zhang Yuanqing forced a smile: "Aunt, I will be your son from now on!"
Change the place tomorrow!
Just then, a voice came from the door and shouted: "Mom, I'm back."
