588 Wait a minute
When the emperor and his grandson woke up, they saw Sun Sicheng giving acupuncture to Eunuch Hu.
"Thank you for your hard work, Sicheng. How is he now?"
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Hu has a high fever. I just gave him some medicine and he will get the injection. The fever should subside soon.
Let me examine you again."
The emperor held out his hand. It was already dawn. "I don't know how they are doing?"
Last night, the grandparents and grandchildren had the same fever as Eunuch Hu, and the fever went up and down, and they only fell asleep for a while in the second half of the night.
"Your Majesty, I vaguely heard some sounds of fighting, but it wasn't very clear, and I don't know what happened to Ping An and the others."
Sun Sicheng hadn't rested for two days, his eyes were red and he looked extremely haggard.
He was also worried about his family and their safety.
He could open a simple array gate, but if he was discovered by the enemy, the emperor's family would be in danger.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps and several people held their breath. In case the formation was discovered, they could use fire attack.
"Master, peace has arrived."
Sun Sicheng stood up suddenly, and his body was swayed for a moment: "Your Majesty, it's Ping An's voice."
His whole heart was filled with joy, as if the word "Master" had injected a lot of strength into his heart.
Ping An dismantled the formation: "Your Majesty, the general is here."
The emperor came out of the formation with the crown prince and grandson.
When General Huang saw His Majesty's expression, his nose felt sore and he knelt on one knee: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Crown Prince, I am late."
"It's not too late, it's not too late, hurry up, is everything okay outside?"
Ping An was about to kneel down, but then he stood up again with the general.
"Your Majesty, today, thanks to Ping An and his two guards, we first went to the Hao family to find Hao Lei, and then intercepted Wang Wei and Wang Tao from the inner guards.
When the Wang brothers and Hao Lei went to take over the five camps in Kyoto, Ping An went to our homes to set up an array to rescue people, otherwise they would have fallen into the hands of the Second Prince.
General Zhang of the Beijing Suburban Camp drugged some of our generals. Thanks to the arrival of General Hao and his men, the situation turned around. Most of General Zhang's soldiers turned back, and then we removed the drug for the generals and captured General Zhang. The entire Beijing Suburban Camp was back in our hands.
At this time, Hao Lei's people arrived at the military camp, and we finally knew what happened in the palace. But when we led our troops to the city gate, a large number of assassins suddenly arrived, led by Xuzhou from the Yongguo family. The two sides fought for two hours, and when the fight was over, the city gate was already a river of blood.
General Hao, the Crown Prince, Duke Jingguo and I were all injured to varying degrees, and our soldiers also suffered numerous casualties. Fortunately, Ping An temporarily set up a battle formation near the wall at the city gate, and he and his guards sent all the wounded inside for treatment, including us. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to stand before the emperor right now."
Ping An never expected that the general would be so supportive and speak for him everywhere.
The emperor looked at Ping'an with a smile. There was a reason why God let this child win the top six places in the imperial examination. This was the true auspicious sign for the Great Zhou.
He glanced at Sun Sicheng behind him again. He was also a very lucky man. He took a liking to Ping An when he was so young and treated him like his own son, raising him carefully. Otherwise, there would be no Ping An today.
"You and your disciple are both great. Once this matter is resolved, I will reward you."
Ping An and Sun Sicheng knelt down hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty, this is what we should do as subjects. We dare not ask for a reward."
"Get up quickly, no need to kneel."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The general said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, I have sent people to send the wounded back to the barracks for treatment, and the remaining soldiers are gathering and waiting for orders.
Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to temporarily move to the General's Mansion and let Ping An set up a formation. It is at least safer than here."
"Okay, the crown prince and the crown prince both have fevers, Sicheng, you have to come with me."
"Yes, Your Majesty, Sicheng will go with us."
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing. General Hao is seriously injured. I have asked the Crown Prince and the Duke to organize all the soldiers that can be assembled. Do you want to march to the palace gate now?"
The emperor sighed and said, "I wish I could catch that evildoer and the other rebels right away, but let's wait a little longer. I have my own plans. All you need to do now is guard the city gates and clear out the remaining evildoers in the city."
"Yes, there is a carriage in the courtyard. Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince, please go to my house and rest for a while."
The prince supported the emperor and walked out first.
Ping An supported the Crown Prince: "Your Highness, can I carry you on my back?"
The grandson kept looking at Ping An with a smile: "Of course it's good."
Ping An bent down and carried the grandson on his back, then turned back to look at his master: "Master, I went back to check on you and my family, and they were all safe, so I didn't go in. I will go to each family to dismantle the gates in a while."
"That's good, Ping An, are you hurt?"
"Master, they are just minor injuries, nothing serious."
When the prince heard that Ping An was injured, he struggled to get off the ground and said, "You are obviously injured, why are you still carrying me? Isn't this foolish?"
The emperor and the prince had already boarded the carriage. Upon hearing this, they looked at the general and asked, "Is Ping An injured too?"
The general nodded: "They were all injured to some extent. They were simply bandaged. There were too many dead soldiers and the battle lasted too long."
Sun Sicheng's heart was in a knot. This silly child, why was he carrying the crown prince on his back when he was injured?
The carriage soon arrived at a small courtyard at the second entrance of the general's mansion. The emperor and his three generations of grandparents moved in. Ping'an spent some time setting up a nice formation for the courtyard, and the task of guarding the gate was given to Wang Tao.
Ping An hurried to the backyard to open the formation gate for the Huang family.
Hao Lei and Huang Fei have already brought people to various places in the capital to clean up the remnants of the Second Prince. The Yongguo Mansion was the first to be hit, but the main personnel of the Yongguo Mansion had either already hidden somewhere else or were in the palace with the Second Prince. The only people guarding the house were maids, old women, and some unfavored concubines.
Sun Sicheng helped Ping'an, Xiaowu and Lin Feng to treat their wounds, and he felt relieved. They were just superficial injuries and would heal if they took good care of themselves for a few days. Unfortunately, they obviously would not have time to rest in the next few days.
After the master and his apprentice discussed it, they decided that the master certainly could not leave, and Ping An would rush to each house to check, and then let everyone come out of the formation. For now, as long as they guarded the gate and had guards at home, they would basically be safe.
His Majesty lives in the Huang family, so Ping An can also ask the two gentlemen and his biological father to come over and wait for instructions. No matter whether he can do anything or not, at least he can show his head and express his attitude.
Ping'an returned home first. When Awu and Mei Niang saw Ping'an, they hugged him and cried. Wan Changsheng did not ignore his son's fleeting expression and hurriedly pulled his wife.
"Ping An, are you hurt?"
Ah Wu was shocked: "Husband, are you hurt?"
Ping An chuckled, "It's just a minor injury, it's nothing, Master has already taken care of it for me. Uncle, Dad, you still can't go out, there is still a fierce battle in the palace. I have set up a small formation every time you enter. Try to stay in the formation. I will send people to guard it. At most two days, there will be a result.
Mother, you and your sister stay with Awu, I still have to go to the master and the two gentlemen's house."
