Chapter 246 Asking the Protector General for Rescue
When the little ghost led the rebels into action, Wei Qingyan was giving Shi Yuguan his hair.
After being kicked off the bed by Wei Qingyan that night, Shi Yu used the excuse that he had a sprained waist and was unable to move around. He clung to Wei Qingyan for twelve hours, asking her to take care of him, including dressing and eating.
The drama of a husband being weak and unable to take care of himself was so vivid that Jingzhe and Dongzang couldn't bear to watch it.
But this time the emperor indulged him. Not only did he let Wei Qingyan take good care of him at home, he also rewarded him with a bunch of supplements, which were delivered to Prince Rong's Mansion by Feng Ruobao and his men.
This made Jingzhe even more suspicious that his prince was really incompetent.
Why would the princess kick the prince for no reason? It must be an excuse for the prince to make for himself. This is not the first time.
Previously at the Anyuan Marquis' Mansion, the princess woke up early feeling refreshed, but the prince couldn't even get out of bed.
Her waist was injured just a few days after her wedding. What should she do in the future? What if the emperor feels sorry for his daughter and sends a few concubines to the princess?
The prince's waist was so weak that Jingzhe was so worried that he immediately went to find Jingyang and asked him to take care of the prince.
When Shi Yu found out, he was so angry that he sent Jingzhe to the farm outside the city to grow herbs.
Therefore, Dong Zang was the only one on duty beside Shi Yu. When he learned that the National Protection Army was causing trouble at the palace gate, Shi Yu sent Dong Zang to check it out, and he did not return for a long time.
After tidying up Shi Yu's hair, Wei Qingyan also tied up her long hair high and changed into men's clothes.
The emperor sent someone over early in the morning, telling her to take care of Shi Yu and not to go out during the day.
She understood that her father probably had some plans and didn't want her to get involved.
Later, rumors spread in the capital, and my grandmother came to the capital. My father allowed the Jade-faced Young Master, who was disguised as Madam Wei, and several of Gong Jin's children to enter the palace.
She guessed her father's intention. He wanted the National Protection Army to believe the rumors spread by the little devil.
By then, the emperor will surely summon her to quell the unrest, and she will take the opportunity to reveal her identity and regain control of the National Protection Army.
Unfortunately, both the little boy and his father underestimated the National Protection Army. They valued friendship, but they were not brainless and would not cause trouble just because of a few words of instigation from the little boy.
So, my father invited my grandmother into the palace again and did not let her out until dark.
The little boy thought his plan had succeeded, but he didn't know that his father was behind the scenes fanning the flames.
The reason why my father did this was to completely eradicate the little devil and his followers.
Second, it’s for her.
Although this is a bit unfair to the National Protection Army, people's hearts are fickle and unpredictable, and my father also wants to use this opportunity to test the current National Protection Army.
"Princess, Prince Jing's 20,000 private soldiers have entered the city through the north gate and are heading towards the palace in three groups.
The three generals of the National Protection Army were worried about the old lady and had not left the palace gate, but they did not accept Prince Jing's invitation.
Lord Liu was trying to persuade them to break into the palace together to rescue people, but General Leng said that the National Protection Army would only protect the country and would never steal it. Lord Liu was so angry that his nose was crooked.
General Su Tong and General Huang Kang sent people to the Gong Mansion and the Anyuan Marquis Mansion respectively, hoping to ask Lord Gong and the Anyuan Marquis to take them into the palace.
Wei Qingyan curled his lips after hearing this.
I don’t know whether my father is satisfied with the performance of the National Protection Army, but at least she is relieved.
They did not abandon their grandmother for fear of offending their father and affecting their own future, nor were they easily taken advantage of by the little devil, nor did they take the opportunity to develop ambitions.
Suddenly, she remembered her father's comments on several of her lieutenants: "Leng San is impulsive in small matters, but he always has a clear mind on major issues.
Su Tong is narrow-minded, likes to compare with others, and acts cautiously and timidly, but he is loyal and has a good heart.
Du Xueyi is not stupid, he is just stubborn and overly dependent on you, but he is loyal enough. You need to train him well in the future.
Deputy General Chang appears to be a calm and composed man, but he can be easily impulsive when faced with a situation. He loves and cherishes his soldiers, but there is one thing he does have: he experienced famine in his childhood, which has instilled in him a strong appetite. You must keep a close eye on this and make sure no one takes advantage of him."
At that time, she thought her father's evaluation of the four people was very accurate, but after dying once, she became suspicious of many people, including Leng San and others. Their performance today made Wei Qingyan feel a little guilty.
Thinking of Lieutenant General Chang who died in battle with her at Huangshaling, guilt turned into self-blame.
When the Crown Prince led his men to take over the Wudan border, Deputy General Chang had a dispute with the deposed Crown Prince's men due to his impulsive temperament, which made the deposed Crown Prince extremely unhappy.
Fearing the prince's revenge, she decided to bring Deputy General Chang with her and return to the capital to report.
His father's teachings were still fresh in his mind, but the greedy Deputy General Chang died in battle on an empty stomach. Wei Qingyan felt a pang of sadness every time he thought of it.
If she hadn't brought Deputy General Chang that day, would he not have died?
"Don't be sad, those who follow you will definitely not regret following you." Shi Yu walked behind her at some point and gently held her against him.
Although he didn't know that Wei Qingyan was thinking of Deputy General Chang, he probably guessed that she was thinking about the National Protection Army and the brothers who died with her in the battle.
Wei Qingyan also understood that the fate of soldiers was to die on the battlefield. She sighed, "It must be God's will."
Originally, it was Du Xueyi who was supposed to go back to Beijing with her. If it was Du Xueyi who went back with her, it would be Du Xueyi who died. I'm afraid Fang's life would have been lost even earlier, and even Xiaoxiao...
Realizing that he was being sentimental, Wei Qingyan quickly pulled his thoughts back to reality, "Will you come with me later?"
Shi Yu said seriously, "I have a sprained waist, so it's inconvenient for me to travel."
Since the little devil wanted to use his name to rebel, how could he not send people to Prince Rong's Mansion? The emperor let Xiao Yan deal with the situation outside, and he would handle the affairs in the mansion and keep Xiao Yan safe.
Well, he wants to be the man behind Xiaoyan.
Thinking of this, Shi Yu inexplicably felt a sense of contentment.
Wei Qingyan understood his intention, but his excuse was really... She raised her eyes and glared at him. Whether she dodged or not, others wouldn't know, but she knew, "You haven't performed enough yet. I'll have someone build a stage for you so you can perform for a few days."
Shi Yu bent down and pecked Wei Qingyan lightly on the lips, "My husband will only perform for you."
Wei Qingyan, "..."
Why doesn’t my waist hurt now?
The secret guards at the door were neither able to go in nor to retreat. These past few days, the room seemed to have been pickled with honey by the prince, and a sweet smell could be smelled in the air.
After being trained by Shi Yu for a few days, Wei Qingyan felt that his skin was getting thicker and thicker. He pushed the man away without changing his expression and called out to the door, "Come in."
She didn't need to ask, the secret guard came in and reported, "The commander of the West Que Gate of the Imperial Palace is one of Prince Jing's men. He has already let in a number of his private soldiers, and Dong Zang has also sneaked in."
After saying that, seeing that the two did not give any instructions, he ran away quickly. The bachelor could not stand the sweetness.
"During the years since my father ascended the throne, he has been diligent in his work and cared for the people. He has also been lenient towards officials. Why are they willing to follow the little devil in rebellion?
Furthermore, this rebellion has little chance of success; if it fails, the entire clan will be exterminated."
Shi Yu knew that Wei Qingyan was not confused, but was feeling pity for the families of those officials. Perhaps they had done nothing but had to lose their lives.
But the officials who followed the little devil in the rebellion did not show any mercy to their own family members, so what was the point of Xiao Yan showing mercy?
"The fact that the little devil has leverage over them is one thing, but the most important thing is that power can harm people's hearts."
He walked to the compartment, took out the Posha, handed it to Wei Qingyan, and kissed her on the forehead, "The rebels have entered the palace, it's time for the general to set off."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yi appeared outside the door, knelt on one knee and said, "Prince Jing is plotting treason and has brought the rebels into the palace. Your Majesty is trapped in the palace. Please ask the Protector General to rescue you."
