5.62 Everything planned by me is foolproof.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yangyuan was ready to say goodbye to Emperor Yonghe after having a full stomach. However, without waiting for breakfast, Princess Yongchang had already blocked the door, and she arrived with the driver and his own horse.

"Your Highness, can you tell me, General, what is it that makes you so anxious and makes people hungry to work in this already cold morning?" Before leaving the palace, Princess Yongchang could just take the car, and a certain But the man didn't have the guts to do any "horse riding in the Forbidden City", so he could only tie the sweaty horse behind the car and follow him on foot in the form of "accompanying the sedan chair".

"Two things, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Let's talk about the details after we go out." Her Royal Highness the Princess said concisely, but it was as if she had not said it. "There is no problem here in the palace, so what are you doing here? As for being hungry, I’ll let you sort it out later. The food in the imperial dining room looks okay, so it’s okay to try it occasionally. If you eat too much, you’ll get really annoyed.”

Zhou Yang:. Too Versailles, no comment!

The two of them didn't elaborate further, because the carriage driver was a eunuch in the palace, and it would be foolish to discuss secrets in front of him. From time to time, they met many people on the road. For example, there happened to be a small court meeting that day, and Zhou Yang looked at them. Many big shots came, but he couldn't talk to them. They all bowed and left separately. The only familiar head of the Ministry of War didn't see it for some unknown reason.

"Princess!" Finally, the two of them walked out of the palace gate after walking for a long time. The eunuch who had just driven the car got out of the car consciously and left. A familiar figure said hello and got off the horse. By the way, he got into the "driver's seat" and put a The delicious food box was handed into the car through the front door. "Everything is ready at home. Let's go back now."

"Come up too!" The voice in the car interrupted Dongfang Qianhu's report, "Go directly back to your home. Have you contacted everyone there?"

"Don't worry, princess!" Dongfang replied calmly, then waved her hand, and saw a dozen people scattered around, and then she waved her whip and "started".

"It's for you!" Seeing someone getting on the bus, Princess Yongchang simply handed over the food box, "Both things this time are related to you. One is what we talked about yesterday. We will talk about it when we get back home. And One of them is because you are so heartless. Have you forgotten anyone these days?"

"What?" Zhou Yang thought for a while but didn't remember. He simply shook his head and picked up the bun, "I don't remember that there is--ouch!"

"Man, hum!" Princess Yongchang kicked him bitterly, but still did not explain.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Yang grinned as he covered his calf in pain, but he couldn't get an answer no matter how he asked, so he could only helplessly continue eating steamed buns.

There were no accidents along the way. The carriage returned to the backyard of the Princess Mansion smoothly. Zhou Yang immediately jumped out of the car and hugged the driver who had not yet stood up. However, he heard her coldly snort, because the carriage was not far in front of the carriage. At the door of the room, a familiar figure was looking at him with a surprise expression. If it wasn't Xue Baochai, who was it?
"Sister Bao!" Zhou Yang thought for a moment, then hugged Dongfang Bing and went over, hugging both girls in his arms, and took a sip of the fragrance, which was exchanged for another cold snort and heavy elbow blow from Qianhu.

"Come in all, I will give you time to fall in love." Princess Yongchang glared at them and took the lead into the living room, followed by Dongfang Qianhu who pushed someone away to follow. Finally, Xue Baochai couldn't help but want to run away. , someone finally reacted, and just carried her to the couch and sat down.

"Princess, this is the preparation made by the subordinates after you sent back the news yesterday." Dongfang Bing immediately handed over a scroll, "According to this equipment, unless there are any special circumstances, it can basically be Guaranteed nothing goes wrong.”

"Ambush?" Zhou Yang only glanced at the scroll and confirmed that it was the three main halls of the imperial palace, namely the Taihe Hall, the Zhonghe Hall, and the Baohe Hall. The distribution map of the surrounding buildings, plus the specially highlighted red dot locations , after thinking about it for a moment, he understood the meaning, "You are preparing just in case."

"Even if there is no emergency, I will make it." Princess Yongchang glanced at him and said, "Most of the three hundred households you asked to train are used here; the self-generated fire gun you made It saves a lot of trouble, at least it won’t be exposed to the light and burning smell of the match rope.”

"What if I give you three infantry cannons?" Zhou Yang said immediately. No matter who the target of Princess Yongchang's ambush is, if you can attack him in the palace, you won't conflict with him. Helping you is nothing. "Those three hundred Outside the house, I will give you half an artillery force and six cannons for a hundred households."

"Train them first, and you don't have to worry about the rest." Princess Yongchang nodded without hesitation, and said to Dongfang Bing, "Place the eliminated muskets (matchlock guns) around the palace gate. , the best is not needed, if any escape, be sure to clean them up, and I will leave the remaining three cannons to you."

"Don't worry, princess!" Dongfang Bing nodded without hesitation.

"Can't tell?" Zhou Yang asked with a frown.

"It's not good for you to know too much, I'll just take the responsibility." Princess Yongchang waved her hand indifferently, "Your firearm Qianhu will be prepared according to the order when the time comes. Dongfang will go over and notify you when it's time to use it. Except for her You don’t have to worry about anyone else.”

"Where is your Majesty?" Zhou Yang was obviously stunned.

"What I said just now is that you don't have to worry about anyone except her. Do you understand?" Princess Yongchang said with a cold face.

"Rong'er, what do you want to do?" Zhou Yang was really annoyed.

"The princess wants to do that." Xue Baochai raised her head nervously from Zhou Yang's arms and asked, "What happened to Empress Zetian?" "You really dare to think about it." Princess Yongchang rolled her eyes, "No, but if you lose, you will end up in the end." It should be about the same.”

"That's good." Zhou Yang smiled and hugged the girl in his arms tightly. He had already vaguely guessed who these things were prepared for, "It's just that last night."

"That girl Xuan'er couldn't hold it back after all." Princess Yongchang laughed teasingly, "Fortunately, I know your habits and won't do anything to her, so I didn't ask any more questions - don't worry, I know what she means. That's my thinking too, my goal wasn't there in the first place."

"That's no problem." Zhou Yang was completely relieved now.

"I remember that you mentioned that you could get a two-thousand-jin general-level heavy artillery?" Princess Yongchang suddenly asked.

"Well" Zhou Yang was completely dumbfounded, "Your Highness, it seems that there is no need for it in the city."

"Get ready." Princess Yongchang glanced at him, "Didn't you say that you want half a town, that is, twelve gates? Just follow this, the palace will make arrangements for the imperial brother, and you confirm that it is about two thousand catties. Bar?"

"You can rest assured!" Zhou Yang nodded without hesitation.

"The standard practice for the first-level guardsmen is to use general cannons or Folang machine guns of about a thousand pounds. A slightly larger one is not a problem." Princess Yongchang said calmly, "Don't worry and prepare, just in case, if there is something that cannot be hit." When it opens, you can just deal with it; I will let you in in advance."

"Your Highness Princess, Chengtianmen is a treasure that has been passed down for hundreds of years. It will be very troublesome to replace it if it is damaged." Having said this, Zhou Yang would be an idiot if he could not guess the target.

"Dongfang, just follow your previous plan, plus today's supplementary arrangements, and go now. Anyway, you can finish it before lunch." Princess Yongchang glared at him but did not answer, turned to Dongfang Bing and said, "Remember to promise a reward. Let's say that after the event is completed, each person will receive 50 taels, and a dead person will receive 100 taels. If the person is disabled, the reward will be paid as a dead person."

"Princess, I'm afraid we have something on hand." Dongfang Bing said in embarrassment.

"Just say it." Princess Yongchang was very calm, "Go!"

"I understand!" Dongfang Bing glanced at someone with a strange expression, turned around and walked out.

"Your Highness Princess?" Zhou Yang didn't know yet that he was being used as a bank again.

"Master——" After at least a dozen sweet voices with plus numbers, Princess Yongchang knelt lightly at someone's feet and looked at Xue Baochai beside her with a smile.

after a long time.

"Brother Zhou!" Xue Baochai looked at a certain princess who was flipping through materials at a desk not far from the big bed with an aggrieved look, "Xue Zihao's annual harvest is only a little over one million. You just opened your mouth and promised to give out 20 taels. Although there is no shortage of these chewy fruits at home, I always feel..."

"Don't worry!" Her Royal Highness the Princess nodded with satisfaction after counting the withdrawal bills - Xue Zihao has its own bank, but it only issues small-amount banknotes. Large amounts can only be passed through special bills signed by the first-level person in charge of the family head. The money can only be distributed after checking the secret code, "With this money, the major events planned by me will be foolproof, and the benefits of the Xue family will be indispensable.

Your eldest brother, I, have already checked him out, and I am afraid that he will not be able to help him for a while. If Ziyang hadn’t locked him up in the military camp, even I wouldn’t dare to say that I can keep him safe. Naturally, I can’t go to him for important matters. Then we can only let Ziyang sign, and his future will be indispensable in the future; and one more thing, even if the signature he signed gets to Mrs. Xue, there will be no problem, right? "

"Brother Zhou!" Xue Baochai threw herself into Zhou Yang's arms aggrievedly.

"This -" Zhou Yang glared at a certain princess in embarrassment. The situation between him and Wang Shuying had actually been exposed for a long time, but everyone was pretending to be stupid. This was the first time he pointed it out in front of Xue Baochai, "Sister Baochai" Don’t worry, since I promised it back then.”

"How can my little sister still have the honor to live after such a scandal?" No matter how "realistic" Xue Baochai is, it is difficult to look away from this kind of thing.

"Okay, you have so many women, why don't you put a few here." Princess Yongchang rolled her eyes at someone, "Let me count them, the second mistress of the second house and the second young lady of the eldest house of Rongguo Mansion, you can't do anything If your good sister, the eldest lady of the Dongfang family of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, and this miscreant of mine all come back with you, what are your plans to do?"

"Ru'er!" Zhou Yang glared at a certain princess, hugged Xue Baochai tightly and said, "Since you are following His Royal Highness Yongjing, why don't you go on like this first, you and I are destined not to be separated in this life, isn't it good for a family to be harmonious and beautiful? "

While he was talking, he had already pulled over the princess again. There were many questions that were of no use, so it was better to do them directly.
