Brother Wanfu

Chapter 100 Demons
It took only two days in Yanzhou from when the princess was heard about the princess to when the princess appeared on the parade.

Now the princess is showing up in front of the people with great fanfare, and all the court officials in Jinan know about it.

Before Qian Feng came to exterminate the rebels, he only thought that General Zhang was getting old, and even the small rebels could not be dealt with, but only now did he realize that the Suzheng army was outrageously powerful.

Not only is it different from the rebellion of those poor people, but there is also the orphan of the former prince, not to mention, the silver mask that came from nowhere.

Now that the princess appeared, the Suzheng army's momentum was high, but the soldiers and civilians under him seemed to have experienced an earthquake, trembling in everyone's heart.

Most people have their own judgments about how the first prince governed the court and the public.

Qian Fengyao thought about the situation when Sui Jin came to Beijing back then. People like the former crown prince fell down in the rainstorm covered in blood, and many soldiers who followed Jin Shang were silent in the rain when they collected his body.
Moreover, it is hard to say whether the Suzheng army is a rebel army under the banner of the late prince.

Qian Feng felt more and more oppressed.

This news has just reached Jinan, and it is still unknown what kind of uproar it will cause when it enters the capital two days later.

The emperor is afraid that he will be questioned
The emperor should really ask about his crimes, he has fought against the Suzheng army for so long, but he still hasn't found out who that Yinmian is.

Qian Feng was in his tent, and he didn't even have the thought of closing his eyes for a nap in the afternoon. He called someone to invite his uncle, Lou Chuntai, to merge and strengthen the Suzheng Army who had "rectified" himself. How should he deal with it in the future? , he can't be the only one carrying it.

From time to time, the guards invited him to the tent for discussion. Half of Lou Chuntai's face was still wrapped under the white cloth, and the remaining half of his face appeared evil. Besides Lou Chuntai, several generals who could talk also came.

Qian Feng didn't need to speak, everyone knew that he gathered everyone here to discuss the imperial court's countermeasures after Suzheng's army grew stronger.

Everyone's face was pale and embarrassing as if they were cursed.

Xing Landong followed at the end of the crowd, somehow he didn't want to get involved at all.

He had said long ago that Yinmian was Qin Guanzhong's legitimate son, but no one else believed it. Even the uncle Lou Chuntai, who was shot by Yinmian and almost killed him, did not believe afterwards that the one who hurt him was just a man under 20 years old. young people.

It has to be said that he did not believe that Qin Guanzhong could raise such a powerful son. After all, Yin Mian's ability was almost like the reincarnation of the great ancestor of this dynasty.

No one believed it, and no one took Qin Guanzhong as a hostage at such a critical juncture. At most, they just found someone to watch Qin Guanzhong. If they couldn't find evidence of Qin Guanzhong, they let his son-in-law go outside to expand the territory of the Suzheng army.

He didn't have anything to say, but when he heard Qian Feng discussing with Lou Chuntai about dispatching Qingzhou Wei Qin Guanzhong's troops for support, he couldn't help but speak.

"General Qian and Uncle Guo want to transfer Qin Guanzhong's soldiers? What if that silver face is really Qin Guanzhong's son?"

The two generals above all looked over.

Lou Chuntai frowned, and Qian Feng seemed to remember that he had mentioned this matter many times, "Commander Xing, do you really think so? If Yinmian is really Qin Guanzhong's son, how can Qin Guanzhong still sit firmly in Qingzhou?"

Xing Landong wanted to say that Qin Guanzhong might just be waiting for an opportunity, and then he might lead the entire Qingzhou border and merge into the Suzheng Army.

If that time really came, Jinan Mansion, where the imperial army was stationed, would instead be surrounded by two sides.

He was about to speak, when suddenly there was an urgent call from outside.

The sound of this urgent report means that there is an urgent battle.

The generals of the imperial court in the tent stood up together.

Qian Feng walked out of the tent quickly, followed by everyone.

I saw the messenger soldier arrive at the tent.

The cold winter north wind made people's faces ache.

The messenger was hoarse.

"Generals, Qingzhou is rebellious. Commander Qin Guanzhong held up the flag of the Suzheng army to rebel and welcome the Suzheng army into Qingzhou! It was Yinmian who led the troops to Qingzhou. The silver mask was no longer shown by a mask. It was Qin Guanzhong's son. Qin Shen!"

The voice fell to the ground, and the surrounding fields were silent.

Everyone was struck by lightning, dumbfounded and speechless.

Xing Landong was just in a daze for a while, he was not so shocked, he just looked at the court "general" beside him.

The reality that they didn't want to believe just happened.

The military flag of the imperial court was blowing by the north wind, and another whirlwind came. The flagpole swayed and fell down.

Xing Landong and Qin Guanzhong had fought against each other for half their lives, and suddenly they felt a little envious of him.

From the emperor on the dragon chair to the civil and military officials, they all seemed to think that nothing earth-shattering would happen, so they oppressed the people, embezzled and accepted bribes, entertained themselves, and did everything.They thought that even if there were people who rebelled, how could it be possible for the imperial court to wipe out and wipe out all the soldiers and horses.

But the reality is completely different from what they imagined.

Courtiers who climbed up through nepotism cannot rule the country, and an emperor who only cares about his own pleasure cannot sit on the throne.

Xing Landong wanted to laugh a little.

He might, really, be losing to Qin Guanzhong again.

Only this time, Qin Guanzhong was able to win, he seemed to be a little irritable, and even somewhat joyful to see through everything.

This world will soon turn over, right?
*
The capital, the imperial palace.

The emperor sat up from the dragon bed dripping with sweat.

When he moved a little, Huang Xian, the eunuch who was watching the night here tonight, quickly walked to the dragon couch.

"Your Majesty wants to drink tea, and this slave will pour it for the Emperor."

The people in the bright yellow tent didn't speak. Huang Xian looked up and saw that the Ninth Five-Year Venerable opened the curtain, and a person appeared from the tent. The dim light shone on his sweaty face. His face was pale, like a ghost.

If it hadn't been for Huang Xian to see the emperor in such a state, it would have been a day, and he would have been frightened out of his composure this time.

Even so, he still paused, swallowed and spit before opening his mouth.

"Your majesty, this servant is going to twist a veil and wipe the emperor's face."

The emperor didn't say anything, he acquiesced.

Huang Xian was about to leave quickly, when he turned around, he saw a little eunuch on duty in front of the door poking his head.

Seeing this, Huang Xian hurriedly signaled the little eunuch to go away quickly, and don't touch the emperor's brow at this time.

Unexpectedly, the emperor behind him suddenly spoke.

"Who?! Someone is outside!"

The sound made Huang Xian jump again, he returned to the eunuch on duty, and the emperor asked him.

"What's the matter?!"

The little eunuch walked in trembling, and when he saw the emperor in front of the dragon bed, he trembled again, plopped down on his knees, and spoke.

"People from the Suzheng army surrounded the streets, claiming to be the orphan of the former prince and the princess of the Eastern Palace."

The little eunuch's voice became softer as he spoke. In the eerie silence, he didn't know how to finish talking about Qingzhou and other places also rebelling and being incorporated into the Suzheng Army.

Just as he was about to take a breath and continue, the emperor who was sitting on the edge of the dragon couch stood up suddenly.

The little eunuch didn't know what the emperor was going to do, he was stunned for a moment, but the emperor walked up to him in the next step.

The cold palm grabbed his throat, and the fingertips pinched deeply into his neck.

"Why do you report such a trivial matter to me?! Go and kill her! Cut the weeds and get rid of the roots! Get rid of the roots!"

The little eunuch was tightly strangled, struggling but unable to speak a word.

Huang Xian was stunned watching.

The emperor's blue and white face, which was already drenched with sweat, was completely distorted at this moment, and he really became a demon in hell.

How dare Huang Xian speak out in front of the evil spirits, he doesn't want to be the next one to be strangled to death.

But the little eunuch struggled harder and subconsciously hit the emperor's arm in order to survive.Huang Xian woke up at this moment, and quickly stepped forward to grab the little eunuch's hands and feet.

"Daring to touch His Majesty is a death penalty!"

The emperor pinched the young eunuch's neck, and Huang Xian grabbed the young eunuch's struggling hand.

After a few breaths, the little eunuch suddenly lost his strength and died with his big eyes open.

Huang Xian was covered in cold sweat, quietly looking at the emperor beside him.

The emperor also opened his eyes without blinking, as if he was looking at the little eunuch, and then looked at something else through the little eunuch's body.

After a while, he let go.

The little eunuch's body slammed onto the ground.

Only then did he blink his eyes, and his voice returned to normal.

"Buy it."

Huang Xian repeatedly dragged the person down in response, and returned to the hall after wiping off his sweat.

"Your Majesty, do you want to sleep again? It's not yet dawn."

"Don't sleep."

The emperor said everything as usual, as if the previous sudden change had never happened, he said again.

"Go to pass the decree, today I will go to the morning court."

*
On the fifth day after Qingzhou raised the flag to rebel and was incorporated into the Suzheng Army, Qin Tian met his "father".

The father and daughter saw each other after many days, but neither of them knew how to speak.

Qin Tian quietly looked at him, who seemed to have lost a lot of weight, his protruding belly had been deflated, and he was dark in his thin appearance, but he didn't look energetic.

She was about to say something when he took a step ahead of her.

"Did that Zhu Hanchun of the Guangsu Army frighten you?"

If he didn't mention Zhu Hanchun, Qin Tian almost forgot about him.

Zhu Hanchun did scare her, but that man was quickly beheaded by his eldest brother, and the entire Guangsu Army changed its flag. Qin Tian didn't remember the point that surprised Qin Tian at that time.

Unexpectedly, "father" still cares about this matter.

She shook her head, "It's all over, it's all right."

"It's all over? It's all right," Qin Tian muttered when he saw him.

She thought he must still think he was as timid as before.

So he said again, "Don't worry, I have adapted to my current status."

After she finished speaking, he stopped talking, raised his eyes to look at her, seemed to take a few breaths, and then looked away.

"Ma'am, no, Zhuo Jing also wants to see the princess, can she come in?"

When Qin Tian was in the Qin family, apart from the initial misunderstanding, Mrs. Qin had always treated her very well. If she had been a concubine and aunt at that time, she thought she would be able to get along with Mrs. Qin more harmoniously. .

She said yes, let Su Ye invite someone in.

Mrs. Qin was not speechless like Qin Guanzhong, but she talked a lot with the princess when she saw the princess.

Between words, Qin Tian could feel Madam Qin's love for him.

Even if she is not her concubine or a high-ranking princess, she only has a mother-like love for her junior.

Qin Tian's heart was warm, and he stayed with Mrs. Qin to have tea for a while, and Qin Guanzhong also accompanied her.

Until it was too late, he remembered Mrs. Qin's health was never good, so he didn't stay any longer.

Just after Mrs. Qin and Qin Guanzhong left the princess' mansion, in the carriage, Mrs. Qin suddenly asked Qin Guanzhong.

"Before I remembered that Tian Tian seemed to have known each other before. You said that she looked similar to Ye Zhichen when she was young, but isn't she the orphan of the former Crown Prince? Why is she similar in appearance to Ye Zhichen?"

Qin Guanzhong was taken aback by her questioning.

"Don't talk about this matter in the future. You don't have to cause trouble for the princess. At that time, I was just talking nonsense. Fortunately, you will believe it then."

"Are you talking nonsense?" Mrs. Qin was incredulous.

But when she recalled the little girl's appearance, she did have some imaginations with Ye Zhichen, but just now she went to see the princess again, and she felt the extravagance that she didn't have before, and she seemed so similar again.

Mrs. Qin also lost her judgment.

She was a little annoyed, and glanced at her husband.

"You can really lie to me, I'm so stupid, I even believe what you say is true!"

Seeing that she was really angry, Qin Guanzhong quickly persuaded her not to be angry, "I am also thinking about the princess' life experience, no one dares to say it, Jingniang, don't get angry because of this again."

"Hmph!" Mrs. Qin couldn't help being angry, and she couldn't help asking Qin Guanzhong another question.

"At this point, you have nothing to do to lie to me, right?! If you lie to me again, we husband and wife will not do it anymore!"

The words were so serious that Qin Guanzhong was shocked.

He didn't speak for a while, and Mrs. Qin asked again.

"Speak, you didn't lie to me again, did you?"

After the words fell to the ground, Qin Guanzhong looked at his wife and shook his head slowly.

"No, no more."

*
The weather is getting colder every day, and the Spring Festival is approaching, Qin Tian not only does not feel the severe cold this year, but only feels that the surroundings are bustling.After Qingzhou was merged into the Suzheng Army, she still had the feeling of returning home.

In the past few days, besides seeing Qin Guanzhong and his wife, she also met Zhou Shanzhang and others from the academy, but their identities changed, and everyone respected her very much, and she lost a little of the casual way of getting along with her in the past.

But on this day, she heard that two old friends wanted to meet the princess.

When Qin Tian asked who it was, his eyes lit up the moment he heard the name.

"Brother Li and Chunzhen?! Hurry up, invite them in!"

　good night.
