Everyone talked and laughed for a while, and while drinking tea, they mentioned the disappearance of the emperor.
The emperor disappeared four days ago, and the news had just reached the western region early this morning. After everyone heard about it, they felt that the emperor's disappearance was a serious problem. Since ancient times, the emperor has been the backbone of the courtiers and the people's hope. The disappearance of the emperor is a major event related to the foundation of the country and the common people.
The emperor disappeared miraculously. The palace guards, imperial guards, honor guards, maids and eunuchs were all safe and sound, only the emperor was missing. It's really shocking.
Now the Eldest Prince is in charge of the country, and Uncle Xiao Guo is leading people around to find the whereabouts of the Emperor.
Seeing everyone discussing for a while, Su Fengnuan and Ye Chang didn't respond, and asked them, "You said, why did the emperor disappear for no reason?"
Ye Chang glanced at Su Cheng, smiled, and said, "Brother also said, why did he disappear for no reason? Naturally, there is no reason for disappearance."
Su Cheng was startled.
Su Yan said, "Since there is no reason for disappearance, what about the emperor's disappearance now?"
Su Qing took the conversation, looked at Ye Chang and Su Fengnuan and asked, "Do you two know something inside? Naturally, it is impossible for the emperor to disappear for no reason, especially this matter is strange. Everyone in Lingyun Temple is fine, only missing It's too surprising to see the emperor alone. The emperor can't disappear out of thin air."
Qi Shu said suspiciously, "Could it be the eldest prince's hands and feet? If something happens to the emperor, the eldest prince is now in charge of the country, so he will inherit the throne as a matter of course."
The statement sneered, "What is the eldest prince going around for? He was originally a prince, but later he became a deposed prince, and now he has turned around and become the eldest prince. He is neither a prince, but only because the emperor left the capital to go to Lingyun Temple. The emperor's order to supervise the country is not considered a logical heir to the throne."
Ye Chang said indifferently, "The eldest prince is good at sneaking behind the scenes. From the prince to the deposed prince and then to the eldest prince, he has changed several identities. Naturally, there are reasons for that. No matter how you say it, he is now the person who least wants anything to happen to the emperor. After all, the court situation is unstable now, and the emperor's jade cases are piled up with memorials of disasters everywhere." After speaking, he said that he guessed that the emperor had abandoned the imperial court and left.
There are no outsiders here, so he naturally didn't shy away from it.
After hearing this, everyone was shocked. Because no matter how they guessed, they didn't guess that the emperor abandoned the court by himself.
Su Cheng asked in disbelief, "The emperor abandoned the court? Why?"
Ye Chang said that the emperor had been sitting on that chair since he was born, and was not allowed to be free, supporting the Southern Qi Dynasty. Over the years, he was already tired. He knew that time was running out, so the reason for abandoning the court was explained.
After everyone heard about it, they were at a loss for a while.
The emperor is indeed not easy, the common people don't know it, but those present here know it. When he was young, the queen mother would not allow him to do this or that because of his weak bones. At the mercy of the Queen Mother and the Xu family. It was not easy for the head of the state to retire from the court, but from last year to this year, countless incidents, wave after wave, naturally crushed the emperor's shoulders that had supported him for many years.
Therefore, Ye Chang's conjecture about the emperor's abandonment of the court is almost indistinguishable from this analysis.
Su Cheng sighed, "The emperor just abandons the court like this, can the First Prince stabilize the Southern Qi Dynasty?"
Su Qing looked at Ye Chang and said, "Your majesty will not make any arrangements. After ordering the eldest prince to supervise the country, he will abandon the court and go away. The emperor has always loved you very much. The reason why the emperor left Beijing for Lingyun Temple was when you and the little girl left the capital." Finally, before you leave Beijing, what did the emperor say to you?"
Ye Chang glanced at Su Fengnuan and said, "I didn't say anything to me, but I talked to Nuan'er."
Su Qing looked at Su Fengnuan.
Su Fengnuan saw that everyone was looking at her, so he told her that the emperor led her into the imperial study, went up to the observation tower, and gave her a will.
"What edict?" Su Qing asked immediately.
Su Fengnuan felt that Ye Chang's ascension to the throne by the will was a big deal, and it was better to keep it a secret. In case the eldest prince changes his temper, he is a benevolent monarch. Things are not getting out of hand, this burden can be lifted or not. So, she shook her head, concealed it, and said, "I didn't open it. The emperor told us to come back from Wangdi Mountain, go to the east, and after the king of Xiangjun was dealt with, he would open the edict."
Su Qing raised her eyebrows, "Are you so obedient?"
Su Fengnuan shrugged, "After all, it's a legacy, so you have to be more disciplined. It's not a good thing, so don't read it."
Su Qing felt reasonable and nodded.
Everyone thought that the emperor's disappearance was bad, but now that Su Fengnuan and Ye Chang said so, knowing that the emperor abandoned the court by himself, and Su Fengnuan left a will in his hand, they also let go of their hearts.
Su Qing said, "The flowing water banquet was only held for one day, why didn't the emperor disappear a few days later?"
Su Cheng sighed, "One day at a time! The emperor's disappearance is a major event. Since we have got wind of it in the western region, we can no longer celebrate it. Otherwise, Yushitai will definitely impeach us and be criticized."
Feng Yang said, "The impeachment of Yushitai is a small matter, but whether this messy prince can support himself is the big thing." After finishing speaking, he looked at Su Fengnuan and Ye Chang, "When will you set off to visit? Emperor Mountain?"
Ye Chang heard the words and asked, "Could someone from Northern Zhou come to meet Chu Han?"
Su Cheng shook his head, "Not yet."
"Huh? Why haven't you?" Ye Chang frowned, "No, when I arrived in the western region, I sent someone to send a message to Bei Zhou. According to the calculation of the day, the person who came to meet him should have arrived yesterday."
Su Yan said, "It hasn't arrived yet, maybe it's because you got married in the western region, my elder brother and I stopped all the merchants coming and going from the two countries. We are afraid of causing trouble, disrupting your wedding, and not allowing you to pass the customs. Let's wait another day today." , I guess someone will come."
Ye Chang nodded and said to Fengyang, "After Chu Han is picked up and exchanged for the evidence of collusion and traitorism between the King of Jin and the King of Xiangjun, we will set off for Wangdi Mountain. It will not take more than three or two days."
Feng Yang nodded and asked again, "How many days will you stay in Wangdi Mountain?"
Su Fengnuan thought for a while and said, "No more than two or three days."
Feng Yang did some calculations and said, "Wangdi Mountain is not far from here. If that's the case, I'll wait in the west for you to go to the west together. My father was detained in the east by the King of Xiangjun, and I always want to rescue him. .”
Su Fengnuan asked Fengyang after hearing the words, "What's the matter with the Fengyang bodyguard bureau and Xiangjun king?"
Feng Yang sighed, "It's hard to say, my aunt was the concubine of the late emperor, she was lonely in the palace, and the King of Jin often kept her warm, so she fell in love with the King of Jin, planted the forbidden fruit, and gave birth to an heir. He was secretly raised in the Xiangjun Prince's Mansion, which is now the Xiangjun King. My father was afraid of implicating the Feng family, so naturally he wanted to keep this matter a secret, and this matter has become a secret of the Feng family."
Su Fengnuan knew this and nodded.
Fengyang said again, "Fengyang's bodyguard bureau has business all over the world. When the king of Xiangjun grew up, he became the king of the eastern border. Under his gentle appearance, he harbored evil intentions. Because his father was his own uncle, he used it unscrupulously. The father was afraid of implicating the Feng family on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was thinking about the kinship with his uncle and nephew. At the beginning of his actions, his heart softened and he helped him with a few things. Later, when he found out that he was a tiger and a wolf, it was already too late. There are too many handles that he has grasped, and he can't pull back."
Su Fengnuan said, "So, for so many years, the king of Xiangjun used the excuse of his love for horses to transport horses, and they were all escorted by the Fengyang Bodyguard Bureau? There is also a secret armory, and the war in Yanbei, the king of Xiangjun secretly used The tea is used to transport weapons to Yanbei, and the Fengyang Escort is also used?"
Feng Yang nodded, "But all his business relies on the Fengyang Bodyguard Bureau. The Fengyang Bodyguard Bureau travels all over the world, buying both black and white, and no one will rob the bodyguards and cause trouble. So, he should rest assured. I really didn't know before, I only found out about this a few months ago, and my father has been keeping it from me."
Su Fengnuan nodded, "I know you don't know about this. I have been dealing with you for so many years. If you knew, you would definitely not be able to hide it from me." After she finished speaking, she said, "But Mr. Feng kept it a secret."
Feng Yang said, "Father has been cautious all his life, but he didn't expect to stumble on the King of Xiangjun. He was afraid that the Fengyang Security Bureau would fall into his hands. Naturally, he was extremely careful about such things, and no one dared to disclose them."
Su Fengnuan said, "Fengyang Bodyguard Agency has collected countless rare treasures in the world, and there are also countless strange poisons. Wushanghua, Yan Wangdu, Hate Spring Breeze, and Half-Step Death all flowed out of Fengyang Bodyguard Bureau?"
Feng Yang nodded, then shook his head again, "I asked about this when I saw my father in the east, and my father said that only the half-step death came from the Baiduxuan in the main altar of the Fengyang Bodyguard Bureau. The rest are still left. At the Fengyang Escort Bureau, the decision has not been leaked."
Ye Xi, who had been silent all this time, said, "This is strange, where did the Wushanghua, Yan Wangdu, and Hate Spring Breeze in the hands of the eldest prince come from?"
Su Fengnuan didn't speak.
Ye Chang glanced at Su Fengnuan, but said nothing.
Ye Xi suddenly said, "Isn't it from Wangdi Mountain? Although Wangdi Mountain has been handed down with extensive skills and techniques, but because of Master Yuling, who is unparalleled in medicine and poison, Wangdi Mountain also has countless strange poisons." .”
When he said this, Feng Yang suddenly said in amazement, "Wangdi Mountain? Could it be that Wangdi Mountain has something to do with the eldest prince?"
Su Fengnuan rubbed his brows and said, "It's natural that he has something to do with Wangdi Mountain. He was the one who intercepted and killed my father in Peicheng. He used the wonderful skills of Wangdi Mountain. It is not a direct descendant but not passed on." .”
