On Su Juan's birthday, the emperor sent not only the right talisman, but also an imperial edict with his imperial seal on it, which authorized the dispatch of troops. Fifty thousand troops in Huaizhou were at Su Juan's disposal.
He was handing the heavy responsibility to Su Juan. Duke Ping thought that with this trust, he would probably issue a manual to appoint the Crown Princess soon.
With this military token in hand, Su Juan can finally gain a foothold in the court and no longer have to fear other forces.
He patted his little niece's shoulder heavily and said, "You must keep it well. This item is of great importance. You can mobilize the troops from Huaizhou, which is closest to the capital. Don't let others know."
Everyone in the world covets the tiger talisman. If others knew about it, Su Juan would be hunted down and robbed.
Su Juan knew the purpose of this thing in her hand very well, and naturally knew the pros and cons of it, "Uncle, don't worry, I know."
The old emperor has put his life and property in her hands. If someone rebels, she can rush to Huaizhou with the tiger talisman and the imperial edict to mobilize troops to rescue him.
Shen Ruhui waited until late at night, when no one was around in the princess's mansion, before he went to look for Su Juan.
"Song Qianfan has been leaving Beijing frequently recently. The people we arranged have lost him several times. There must be a lot of people helping him in secret."
This person's preparations in all aspects were very steady and comprehensive. He was able to intercept people from Ruyi Tower every time. It must not be luck. So until now, no one has been able to find out what Song Qianfan was doing in the suburbs of Beijing. Now, we can only ask people to inquire around the suburbs of Beijing to see if there is anything unusual.
Huatingshan wore heavy armor, rode a horse, and led his men to the imperial city. As long as he could control those minor officials and their families, he could make them support him and take the throne.
Just one day before Qiu Lie and his group were to leave the capital, Huatingshan led a group of people to sneak into the capital at night, and joined forces with the city gate commander who had been bribed long ago to kill the others and occupy the city gate defense.
Xie Xun felt that it was right.
King Heng, King Han, and Su Juan were all defeated by me. After all, the heaven belongs to you, Huating Mountain!
Then things in this world really do have their regularity.
This person is really secretive, and it is obvious that he has never intended to hide his tracks and identity. But, what kind of person would live for more than ten or seventy years and have never intended to hide during this period?
It would be better to pretend to be aware of the situation and act accordingly.
Su Juan smiled, "Maybe they all hate the present?"
This person is still a blur. I have no idea who he is, where he came from, and what his purpose is.
Before Su Juan's birthday, everyone in the capital knew the details of the banquet that day, and they all said that if you made any more noise, you would cause no trouble.
Many people who know the situation feel sorry for you. If you had not insisted on pleading for Prince Jing and the Pei family that day, you would not have ended up with the reputation of being an accomplice of the rebels. It was really a one-sided mistake that led to a complete loss.
If Huating Mountain really rebels, the capital will be my burial place.
Su Juan instinctively thought it was Yan Zizhan, "Didn't you find any information from Yan Zizhan?"
Shen Ruhui shook his head, "No, I'm still checking."
Now, the tide has turned, and Princess Jinyang must be regretting it now.
It would be best if Shi Yuan from the Huaizhou small camp could understand what's best for him, otherwise he would have to be killed together with them.
The Minister of Personnel followed in front of the emperor, chatting and laughing with others, but he was very nervous. Zha Zhumeng asked my group to keep an eye on His Majesty. If there was no unusual movement, we should send a message back to the capital in time. No matter how we think about it, it feels right.
With the emperor's attitude, everyone in heaven felt that Su Juan had a chance to turn things around. They all stopped trying to figure out the old emperor's thoughts and wondered who would be adopted, someone from the capital or a royal family member from other places.
The old man was kind first, so he could blame himself for being righteous.
The generals in the court looked forward to that opportunity every year, when they could go hunting, barbecuing and drinking wine with Liu Miaoqing. It was really a relief. It was a pity that the King of Han was still under house arrest, so they could not go together later.
At this time, Su Juan was following the front of the team and could vaguely feel that no one was staring at her. It should be Cha Zhumeng's spy. You curled your red lips slightly and slowed down.
But I dared to report the matter to the old emperor. If Huatingshan really rebelled, what harm would happen to the person who had always been with me? He would definitely be charged with the crime of accomplice and lose his head.
Just when everyone in the capital was looking forward to showing their skills to Liu Miaoqing, someone knew that a storm was coming. Huating Mountain, a small camp far away in the suburbs of the capital, was getting ready to go. They joined forces with Yu Ting in the imperial city and were just waiting for the emperor to leave the capital with Yan Zheng to go to Liu Miaoqing. Then they would attack the imperial city directly, and then, under the pretext that Princess Jinyang was conspiring with King Han to rebel, they would hold the emperor hostage and send troops to attack Liu Miaoqing.
On the day the emperor and his entourage left the capital, half of the court officials went with them, and some of them even brought their families with them.
Your lives and property are all under my control, who dares to obey me?
Not many people think that those who escaped halfway are either short-sighted or rely on the emperor's favor to think they can do whatever they want. They provoked many people in the court and made countless enemies, causing many minor officials in the court to be killed, imprisoned, or exiled.
"yes!"
Watching the huge group of people leaving the capital, Cha Zhumeng immediately took the jade token that Su Juan had just stuffed into her hand and hurriedly left the palace to see the emperor.
Compared to the security that Cha Zhumeng enjoys in the open, it means nothing at all. Only people like Yan Zizhan, who hide in the dark and know the forces behind them and what they want, can be truly safe.
Su Juan patted Song Qianfan's hand and said, "You will be gone for half a month or so. You can come back soon. If he is free, he can stay in the palace and accompany your grandmother."
Huatingshan laughed, "Go, go to the small mansions in the capital, and ask all the ministers and their families to leave the palace. If there are no followers, kill them."
The emperor only brought 8,000 imperial guards with him on this trip. As long as he successfully occupied the imperial city and used the forged military tokens and imperial edicts to mobilize the Huaizhou troops, he would kill the old emperor and the court officials who followed him in front of Liu Miaoqing. Then, the heaven would be his!
However, the least capable young man in the capital city at present is the prince of Han, Song Jingwen, but the king of Han is still under house arrest.
Hundreds of soldiers holding torches shuttled through the streets and alleys of the capital. Every household closed their doors and listened to the noise inside. Everyone guessed that something serious had happened.
Xie Xun, who was standing by, looked around and couldn't help but mutter, "Why do I feel like there were quite a few people at the autumn hunt?"
I looked around the Imperial City, everyone has the surname Song. Why has this place, which looks down upon the heavens, always been under the control of this old thing? He put in a lot of effort and yet he was able to win my favor, and he even stepped his own nephew out of the mud pond.
Then he opened the city gate slightly to welcome several hundred people back to the capital.
The emperor ordered his men to start the autumn hunting. Every autumn, the emperor would bring many officials from the court to Liu Miaoqing's hunting palace and stay there for more than half a month. This hunting was more important than the spring hunting.
Although Prince Jing had no real ability, his reputation was ruined when he came here, and it had nothing to do with Princess Jinyang.
Zha Zhumeng was slightly stunned, then took his hand back, hid it in his sleeve, and nodded, "Bad."
Not only the military generals, but also the civil servants who were wanted to be moved in previous years because of their young age came as well.
