Chapter 596 Good News from the Capital
After dragging it out for five or six days, the eunuch's expression became uglier day by day, and the threats in his words became more and more explicit. He even began to question San Ya about her specific pursuit route, and shouted that he would personally lead people to urge her to come.
Lu Qiniang suppressed the anger and anxiety in her heart, and pretended to be careful on the surface, but her heart felt like it was on fire, and she was looking forward to news from the capital day and night.
She even began to think that if there was no news in two more days, the eunuch would have "accidentally" gotten lost in the northwest wind and sand, or "unfortunately" encountered the "remnants of the Hu people."
This way of dying is more natural than being burned to death as Li Feng mentioned.
At this critical juncture, a familiar cry came from the sky.
The huge figure of the little god broke through the lead-gray clouds, swooped down with a strong wind, and landed steadily in the yard.
Lu Qinniang's heart almost jumped out of her throat. She almost ran to the window and untied the small bamboo tube tied to the little god's claws with trembling hands.
It was Daya who wrote to her!
Daya said that the new emperor was dead.
Dead?!
Just die like that?
Daya also said that after the new emperor died, Yun Ting led people to open the city gates and welcome Prince Yan to Beijing, thus avoiding a major war.
Although the Prince of Yan has not yet proclaimed himself emperor, it is just around the corner.
When Lu Qiniang saw this, she couldn't help but say, "Amitabha, may the Bodhisattva bless you."
The Prince of Yan entered the capital without resorting to violence, thus saving the capital from a catastrophe. This is better than anything else.
We are all Chinese citizens, and it is a great blessing if we can shed less blood.
Lu Qiniang looked down eagerly again, looking for news about Xiao Yan.
She wasn't really worried.
Because if anything happened to Xiao Yan, Daya would definitely be the first to tell her.
——Even in the whole world, in the hearts of their family, it is not as important as Xiao Yan.
Sure enough, Lu Qiniang continued to look down, and the good news was that Xiao Yan was indeed fine.
The bad news is that Xiao Yan has led his troops north to Liaodong to support his old subordinate.
In other words, the world is temporarily stable, but Xiao Yan and San Ya, each with their own mission, are still on the front line.
OK, OK.
Lu Qiniang excitedly pressed the letter against her chest.
My heart can finally be at peace.
There is no need to worry anymore about Prince Yan failing, everyone being implicated, and rivers of blood flowing; there is no need to worry about San Ya being forcibly taken into the palace, separated from her family, and never being free and happy again.
It was Daya before, and it was Sanya this time, both were nearly ruined by that dog emperor.
Thinking of this, Lu Qiniang couldn't help but curse in her heart - it's good that he died.
Let him go to accompany the late emperor and kneel down in front of him to atone his sins!
After reading the letter, Lu Qiniang felt as if all the dark clouds in the sky had dispersed.
She was not happy for a while, and the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict came to urge her again with an extremely bad attitude.
In the past, Lu Qiniang would probably pay money, put on a smile, and beg him to be lenient for a few more days.
But now, Lu Qin's mother is no longer willing to tolerate bad habits.
She smiled and said, "You've arrived just in time, Eunuch. General Li asked us to come over and talk. I guess there's news from the front and they're already heading back. I was just about to go look for you!"
The eunuch didn't think much of it and snorted coldly, "If you delay any longer, we will have to ask the general for an explanation," and then followed her to the general's mansion.
Li Feng didn't look happy when he saw the eunuch.
The eunuch still felt slighted and said sarcastically, "Does General Li have a problem with our family, or with the Emperor's decree?"
"I..." Li Feng was choked with anger.
"General Li, have them arrested!" Lu Qiniang couldn't hide her excitement. "The situation in the capital has changed. The emperor is dead!"
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Including Li Feng and the eunuch.
Then, the eunuch said in a sharp voice: "You dare to spread rumors that the emperor has passed away? You, you wait. After I return to the capital, I will definitely - Ouch!"
The eunuch was kicked to the ground by Li Feng.
"I've tolerated you for a long time."
Regardless of whether it was true or not, he had to vent his anger first.
At worst, he will rebel and go to Beijing to kill the dog emperor!
Lu Qiniang repeatedly said, "Don't worry, General Li, this news is absolutely true!"
She took out the letter written by Daya and showed it to Li Feng.
Li Feng read it quickly and laughed out loud, "Good, good, good!"
Why are you being so polite?
"Come here, push this eunuch slave down and behead him!"
Li Feng disdains to use those despicable means.
He was simple and rough, he just chopped it off!
However, Li Feng still advised Lu Qiniang not to spread the news first.
You can be secretly happy, but don't set off fireworks in advance to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Lu Qiniang said she knew and would not speak nonsense.
However, after returning home, Lu Qiniang was not happy.
She thought of Zhang Heyao.
Even though the dead emperor was a bad person in every way, he was good to Zhang Heyao.
At the age of thirty, he was already one of the most important figures in the court.
In a sense, Zhang Heyao benefited from the emperor's stupidity.
If he were a serious emperor, he would not dare to go against public opinion and promote such a young official to the cabinet and become a prime minister.
Now that the emperor is dead, people are very happy.
Where is Zhang Heyao?
Following the Emperor...
Or was he arrested and will be liquidated in the future?
No matter how Lu Qinniang thought about it in a positive way, she felt that he was probably doomed this time.
But Daya's letter did not mention Zhang Heyao at all.
It will probably take a few days for news from the capital to arrive.
"Mom, mom—" Xiaoman saw Lu Qinniang receive the letter from Xiaoshen and couldn't help asking Zhang Heyao, "Didn't Dad write to me? When Mom writes back to Big Sister, I want to write a letter to Dad too, okay?"
His face was full of pleading.
Lu Qiniang sighed.
Zhang Heyao's life and death are uncertain, Xiaoman only recognizes this father, and after Xiao Yan returns, there is another storm...
I originally thought I would be happy if the emperor died.
But more problems still lie ahead.
"Okay, go write it."
Lu Qiniang thought about it and decided to take this opportunity to ask about Zhang Heyao's news.
To be honest, she felt a little embarrassed to ask directly about Zhang Heyao's affairs, even in front of Daya.
There is always a guilty feeling.
Even though she had done nothing wrong.
Xiaoman went there happily.
He is going to write a letter to his father!
Lu Qiniang considered it carefully and wrote back to Daya, and finally asked about Zhang Heyao's situation.
After the letter was taken away by the little god, Lu Qiniang was uneasy. She bought incense, candles and paper money, burned them in the direction of the capital, and kowtowed.
All the gods and goddesses in heaven, as well as my parents, if you are still alive, please bless my brother this time and help him turn this misfortune into good fortune.
I don't ask for him to be rich and powerful in the future, I just ask him to be able to escape safely.
In the future, even if I don’t have an official position, I can just be an ordinary citizen.
At this time, you will understand that nothing is more important than being alive.
Lu Qiniang spent five or six days in agony.
Finally, General Li received the latest news from the capital.
