Fang Shu was still waiting for the emperor at the mansion. She waited from morning to night. She almost fell asleep and there was no sign of anyone.
The strange thing is that the old prime minister and Mrs. Qin are also not there, and I don't know where they went. It seems that something happened in the house, and the guards are heavily guarded. The number of servants and guards is three to five times that of usual.
She refused to let her go out even if she wanted to, she only said that there was a big change outside and people would die if she went out.
Unwilling to give up, she asked, "Where's... where's father and mother?"
Almost called wrong.
The housekeeper's face was solemn, "Master has gone to pick up his wife, and he will be right back. Please be safe, miss."
Fang Shu frowned, "What happened?"
The butler avoided talking to him, "It's getting late, miss, go to sleep, the master and wife will be back when you wake up."
"Uncle Li!" Fang Shu narrowed her eyes, "You didn't regard me as a member of the Shangguan family, did you, and didn't tell me anything happened to father and mother!"
Although it is true that they are not biological, and it is impossible to accumulate deep feelings in a short period of time, Mrs. Qin is a good person, she can tell that something must have happened to Mrs. Qin.
"This..." Uncle Li looked troubled. Before he left, the master told the young lady not to let the young lady know, otherwise with the young lady's temper, she might go out to find them, and the chaos would add to the chaos.
"Say it!" Fang Shu urged.
Uncle Li sighed, "Mrs. said she was going to the theater in the morning, but she never came back. Later, the capital mutinied, and the master was worried, so he went out to look for it."
"The mutiny in the capital?" Fang Shu was taken aback, "What's going on?"
"It is said that the general and general Zhengxi rebelled, and the general said that the emperor is a fake, and the fake emperor is wanted. We don't know who is right or wrong." He heard it all, "In short, the capital is in chaos now , the ministers and the emperor are not here, the forces of all parties are watching, waiting to take advantage of it, the master said, let's protect ourselves."
What was said later, Fang Shu didn't listen to a word, she only knew that the emperor was in trouble, he was regarded as a fake wanted!
It can't be fake, the prime minister just told her a few days ago that the emperor will see her after sending the soldiers off to battle, she even wore it on the emperor yesterday, and changed it in the morning, how could it be fake!
That is the rebellion of the Great General and General Zhengxi!
Fang Shu gasped for breath, and quickly grabbed Uncle Li's sleeve and asked, "Hasn't anyone looked for it? The emperor is in trouble, isn't this a good time to make meritorious deeds?"
Uncle Li shook his head, "The ministers and the emperor are not here, the dragons have no leader, and the people below have no opinion, they can't afford it, dare not!"
Fang Shu's heart moved, "Does that mean that as long as someone takes responsibility, they can be moved?"
Uncle Li sighed, "It's not that simple. Even if someone is responsible, they must have the ability. Now there are no one who has the ability to command the army... oh..."
I don't know how to explain it to her.
Fang Shu understood, her pupils darkened.
That's right, she has no official position, and secondly, she is not a relative of the emperor, and even hides her identity with the emperor, so what qualifications does she have to mobilize the army.
She seems - helpless...
Fang Shu's soaring heart was instantly as if a basin of water had been poured on it, and it was cold from head to toe.
She is too useless to be of any help.
"It would be great if the ancestor's Shangfang sword is still there, and our master can dispatch troops and generals."
Fang Shu was taken aback for a moment, as if thinking of something, her eyes lit up, "Is it all right as long as there is a royal token?"
The housekeeper nodded, "Shangfang's sword is not an ordinary thing. It can be cut first and played later to punish evil and promote good. It was given to our ancestors by Emperor Yongshan. Unfortunately, it was stolen later. The emperor said he would give it to the young master again, but it has not been typed."
To be honest, if Shang Fang lost his sword, if not for the friendship between the emperor and the prime minister, he would have been executed by the whole family long ago, punished for their ineffective supervision.
Fang Shu quickly pulled out the jade piece around her neck to show him, "This..."
She turned around and put the side with the dragon on it, "The emperor gave it to me personally, saying that seeing Yuru like meeting people, can it represent what he means?"
Li Bo paused. He was old and his eyesight was not very good. It took him a long time to see that the engraving on it was a dragon. "Is this really the emperor's?"
Fang Shu nodded, "It was worn by the emperor since he was a child. Everyone around him knows it. It should be a symbol of status. Is this okay?"
She felt that this should be the dragon carved by the emperor, the phoenix carved by the queen, the peony carved by the concubine, the crane carved by the minister, and the tiger.
Everyone has one, something like a guide.
Luyin is like the current ID card. The emperor doesn't need Luyin, so he got a jade card
"It should be possible." Uncle Li was not sure, "Wait for the prime minister to come back and ask?"
It was late at night, and I don't know if it was because of a hard day's work, too much consumption, or what, but Yin Fei's condition was not very good, and he felt that the poison was about to take hold.
It was faster than expected. Under normal circumstances, it would happen once every three to five days, and only those who were deeply poisoned would have it every day.
When those officials were imprisoned, he had people watch him closely and asked for details. The Tai Hospital was already preparing an antidote. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be an ordinary poison, and there is currently no cure.
Yin Fei took Jiedu pills and knew it was useless, but Jiedu pills can relieve pain.
My body has already started to sweat, which is different from the first time. The first time I feel uncomfortable, nauseated, and there is not much pain.
This time my whole body was icy cold, as if I had fallen into an ice cave, my stomach began to throb, and it slowly spread throughout my body, as if ten thousand ants were crawling in the bone crevices, it was so painful.
After a while, he was soaked all over, and his fingertips were inserted into the soil, so hard that he pulled out the blood, it was too painful.
Yin Fei took out the knife and stabbed deeply on the arm, concentrating the pain on one point, otherwise it would be so painful that she couldn't walk or think.
Commander Lin saw it and exclaimed, "Your Majesty!"
He was originally reporting the situation outside to the emperor, but the pursuers came after them, and they had to pack up and go on their way again, when they accidentally saw the emperor committing suicide.
Commander Qin heard the voice and followed in, "What's wrong?"
Yin Fei hid her injured arm in her sleeve, "I'm fine."
His face was pale, like a dead man, and nothing could be seen in the dark cave except his snow-white complexion.
Commander Lin and Commander Qin looked at each other and said in unison, "I'm offended."
One of the two took out a medicine bottle from their arms, and the other brought a handkerchief. They forcibly held Yin Fei's arm, bandaged his wound, and said, "Your Majesty, the Song family has done a lot of evil and used drugs to control court ministers. No one wants to Doing things under his hands, so you must keep your body. If you are alive, you will have a chance to take down the traitor and avenge your brother who died in vain."
Commander Qin echoed, "I have a stupid mouth, and I don't know what to say."
He knelt down, "The imperial guards swear to protect the emperor to the death!"
Commander Lin knelt down late, and added, "I will never forget His Majesty's kindness, and I will swear allegiance to the death!"
He was born as a commoner. He fought in the village at the age of twelve, and his family members died. He went to battle to kill the enemy for a bucket of food. Over the past ten years, the enemy did not cut down, and the merits did not get much.
One day, suddenly a great eunuch came over with an imperial decree, saying that there was a suggestion box, and everyone had to write in it. No one could read this box, and it would go straight to the emperor.
Don't worry about being reported, and don't worry about being embarrassed.
With an attitude of giving it a try, he talked about the injustices he had encountered over the years, but he didn't expect it to be really useful.
The thousand flags that always took up his merits were gone, and not only that, he was promoted to the thousand flags.
The emperor is really powerful, because after that time, several hundreds of banners and thousands of banners were withdrawn, and there were no more than two thousand banners. There was no such thing as false claim of merit in the army, so he was promoted all the way, and finally achieved the feather Commander-in-Chief of the Lin Army.
He and Commander Qin are like the emperor's left and right hands. Both Yushi is the eyes and Anbu is the ear. They collect all kinds of news from the people. They generally don't work with them, so they don't know them well.
The prime minister is probably the emperor's white paper fan, and the white paper fan means think tank, but the prime minister's think tank is different. He belongs to the top shape, and it moves once when it is twitched.
So someone had to hold him and push him forward, otherwise the white paper fan would rot into a puddle.
Yin Fei touched the bandaged arm, and her expression rarely relaxed, "I know."
It turned out that he was not alone.
The betrayal of the three generals, General Zhengxi, and General Fujun made him doubt his own vision of employing people.
He has always believed in employing people without suspicion, and doubting people is not necessary. Many generals in the history have been suspected by the emperor and died because of their high achievements. In the end, they lost their generals, and their own country was not defended, and the enemy took advantage of it.
With the example of the predecessors, he naturally would not be too suspicious of his courtiers.
Give them a lot of space to display their talents and ambitions.
He didn't dare to compare with other emperors, but he was definitely number one in heart.
Under such circumstances, he thought that no one would betray him, and he was still too confident in himself.
This incident taught him a lesson, and this lesson made him unable to recover for a long time.
In fact, when he was in the forest during the day, there were several generals available in the Baiguan, but he hesitated after much deliberation.
Once bitten by a snake, he was afraid of well ropes for ten years, not to mention that the matter was so important that he only used a few people who would never betray him.
Needless to say, Li Zhai, the Prime Minister didn't bother to betray him. If Pu Yu wanted to betray him, he wouldn't have blocked the hidden weapon for him in the first place.
Arranging Commander Lin and Commander Qin by his side is also because of trust.
Commander Lin was single-handedly picked up by him. Commander Qin has been loyal for generations, and the blood of loyalty flows in his bones, so there is no reason to doubt him.
"Didn't you say the rebels are coming?" Yin Fei propped herself up and stood up, "Let's go."
He was poisoned quickly, and he went away quickly, and now he is better than before, with some strength in his legs.
Yin Fei supported the wall and walked out of the cave. It was pitch black outside, the cool wind was blowing, and little raindrops fell, making the air damp.
It was bad luck, it was raining.
He hates rainy weather the most, especially the rainy weather in autumn.
