Lin Hai led the imperial army, broke into the Bai mansion, and searched the entire Bai mansion, and sure enough, all the members of the Bai family had escaped.
Lin Hai stood in the living room of the Bai Mansion. When the Bai family fled, they scattered the furniture all over the place due to panic. Among them are many famous calligraphy and paintings, antiques, and precious pearls, which are comparable to the number of treasures in the palace.
"The Bai family is really rich. It is absolutely possible to buy a big Jing country with their money!"
Lin Hai was filled with remorse. He held a piece of Dingzhou white porcelain in his hand. After looking at it, he was so annoyed that he threw the porcelain on the wall with a bang.
"what… "
It's strange that the wall will make an exclamation sound!
Lin Hai looked at the white powder wall in amazement, touched it again and again, but couldn't tell the difference between it and other walls. Could it be that the wall will also become fine
Lin Hai stepped back and picked up another clean bottle from the ground, this time with more force, "Bang!" The clean bottle fell heavily on the wall. There was another "ah" exclamation from the wall, and it seemed that not just one person, but many people exclaimed.
"Commander Lin, there must be something wrong behind the wall!" A military academy whispered to Lin Hai.
Lin Hai also seemed to see something tricky, exchanged glances with the military academy, and said loudly on purpose: "Now all the people in the Bai family have left, and according to the emperor's decree, everything in the Bai family will be burned. Come on, go Bring dry firewood, light a fire, and burn down the Baifu!"
The military academy also agreed loudly: "Okay, the general will take people to bring more firewood, and burn the Bai family to ashes!"
The two fell silent for a while, and the wall also made a sound: "Don't! Don't! There are people behind the wall! Come and save us."
Lin Hai walked up to the wall and put his ear close to the wall: "Who are you? How can I rescue you?"
The person inside shouted: "The mechanism is on a piece of blue water-polished brick on the opposite wall, as long as you remove the green brick, you will see the mechanism!"
Lin Hai then walked to the opposite wall, observed the ground carefully, and found that a terracotta brick was particularly conspicuous, showing a blue color. Lin Hai pulled up the brick, and there was a protrusion under the blue brick, and there was a small hole on the protrusion, and a rope was tied to the small hole. Lin Hai pulled up the rope, and the other wall opened with a rumble.
In a small narrow room, there were dozens of people, all dressed as pawns and servants, tied together three by three. Lin Hai was taken aback, and asked the military academy to quickly untie the ropes and let them out.
Lin Hai grabbed one of the male slaves and asked, "Why are you imprisoned in this place?"
The male slave was locked in a secret room with little air, and he was released at this time, panting heavily, breathing in fresh and sufficient air: "Earlier today, someone suddenly reported that all the troops sent to rescue the Queen Mother were killed. Killed. The master and the young master were very nervous, the young master muttered in his mouth, if the empress Rong knew that the Bai family was going to take care of the queen mother, she would definitely send people to encircle and suppress her.
"The master and the young master were afraid that we would tell others the news of their escape, so they ordered the soldiers to tie us up and lock us in a secret room. If you hadn't arrived in time, or later, we would have died inside!"
Lin Hai said angrily: "The Bai family is really scheming, but the queen guessed it!" Then he asked the male slave, "How long has it been since your master and young master escaped?"
The male slave said: "I left two hours ago!"
It's two hours! At this time, the master and young master of the Bai family had already escaped from the imperial city with the soldiers, and they had gone a long way. Whether to chase or not depends on what Rong Changan thinks.
Lin Hai then said to the military academy: "Let's go back to the palace first, and tell the Queen what's going on here, and see what the Queen thinks! If we chase after him, we'll go after him; if we don't, we'll wait for the Queen's next order."
Leaving a part of the Imperial Forest Army guarding the White Mansion, Lin Hai rushed back to the palace. At this time, Xu Feng boiled a bowl of ginseng soup for Rong Changan to nourish his body. Just now she almost fainted on the ground because of the Queen Mother.
"Empress, something is wrong!" Lin Hai's face was serious as soon as he came to Fengming Palace.
Rong Changan slightly raised her eyes to look at Lin Hai, maybe she had already seen from Lin Hai's expression that things were not going well: "Why is something wrong?"
Lin Hai said angrily: "When we rushed, the Bai family and the Lin family had already fled, leaving only useless servants at home. And they had already fled for two hours. Empress, should we go out of the city to chase after them?"
Rong Changan put the ginseng soup on the table, stood up, and twirled the beads in his hands: "It's been two hours?" She walked to the door, looked at the sky on a rainy night, and sighed, "Since it's been two hours , Even if they go to catch up now, it's too late, they will definitely go to the nearest feudal town." Rong Changan's eyes flashed with pain, "It seems that this fight is inevitable!"
"Queen, why is it inevitable?" Lin Hai asked.
Rong Chang'an said: "They escaped and reunited with the feudal town. They will definitely surrender and accept the rebellion, and lead troops to attack the imperial city in the name of the Qing emperor. What we have to do now is to repair the equipment, mobilize the horse and fight hard, and meet the challenge of the feudal town. Lin Hai, you too Tired, go to rest first! Let’s talk about tomorrow’s business tomorrow.”
Lin Hai felt tremendous pressure. If soldiers from feudal towns overwhelm the border, how many lives will be lost!
As soon as Lin Hai left, Chuntao came in to report.
"Queen, the emperor is here!"
It seems that Li Hai also heard some minor details, so he came to ask Rong Changan what happened.
"Here you come, go and tell the emperor that I'm not feeling well, and I can't go out to meet Shengjia, let him come in by himself!" Rong Changan sat down again, picked up the ginseng soup on the table, and put the bowl gently On the red lips, "hiss", take a small sip. The ginseng soup was still steaming, drinking it into the stomach, Rong Changan really felt uncomfortable without a single pore in his body.
"Xu Feng, this bowl of soup you made is very good! I was asked to serve the Empress Dowager earlier, I was ill, and the imperial doctor in the palace couldn't cure me. Now that you are back, I think I will recover soon! "
Xu Feng said modestly: "Thank you Queen for your compliment! The villain has the guts to ask the Queen, what disease does the Queen have? What are the symptoms? Tell me so that the villain can prescribe the right medicine for the Queen!"
Rong Changan said with a smile: "It's just a woman's disease, Qi and blood deficiency, inability to sleep, etc!"
There is also a heart disease that Xu Feng cannot cure.
Xu Feng said: "When I was in the folk, I also provided prescriptions for many women. After a while, the villain wrote to the queen, and then asked Chuntao to go to the imperial hospital to get the medicine."
Rong Changan cast a grateful and admiring look at Xu Feng: "Then I will thank you!"
While speaking, Li Hai's hurried footsteps sounded in the courtyard, and when he came to the door, his expression was serious and gloomy. Rong Changan got up, squatted down slightly, and performed a little etiquette:
"May the emperor forgive Chang An for being unwell and unable to give a big gift to the emperor!"
Can you give a big gift, Rong Changan doesn't have Li Hai in his eyes! Li Hai didn't care about it anymore.
"Since you can't salute, then that's all. Queen, please sit down!" Li Hai said to Mr. Liu again, "You go out first, I have important matters to discuss with the queen."
Mr. Liu said "obey the order" and then withdrew.
Li Hai looked at Xu Feng who was beside Rong Changan again, Rong Changan said to Xu Feng: "You go out too!"
Xu Feng saluted Li Hai, walked out, and closed the door.
Rong Changan took another sip of ginseng soup, and was about to ask, "Your Majesty, what do you want to say..."
Li Hai couldn't wait to walk up to Rong Changan, and stared at her sharply: "Queen, have you heard what happened in Xiangyangfang?"
Rong Changan pretended not to know: "Oh, what happened in Xiangyangfang? Please tell the emperor in detail."
Rong Changan seemed to be fine, which made Li Hai even more anxious.
He tapped the table lightly and quickly with his index finger: "Queen, I heard that those who were strangled by Lin Hai were all soldiers from the Bai and Lin families. What does that mean?" Li Hai swallowed.
