Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

When the people in the capital were looking forward to what Shi Kefa would do.

These days, the mission from Nanjing has unexpectedly calmed down.

Except for Shi Kefa, most of the members would go out every day to visit their old friends, visit new schools, or go to the Institute to have a look. Basically, the changes in the capital in the past few months were recorded one by one by the officials of Nanjing City. .

And the Parliament did not specifically prevent such a thing.

On the contrary, the Dibao also intentionally or unintentionally contrasted the development and changes of Beijing and Nanjing.

In these days, Wang Qi never summoned Shi Kefa and his party again.

The flames of gossip among Beijing people are gradually extinguished: Why is there no river of blood?

In the minds of many people, the life-and-death scenario of a palace coup with heads rolling in did not happen.

Maybe it's because the difference in strength is too big?

The people in the capital felt that Shi Kefa's trip to Beijing this time was simply trying to get rid of the chariot and seeking his own death.

This somewhat subtle atmosphere lasted until late September of the third year of the year.

Early this morning, Shi Kefa submitted a request to leave Beijing on October 1st to the parliament.

And soon, the parliament also gave its approval: agreeing to leave Beijing.

Is this over?

The people who were watching saw the envoys coming and packing in Honglu Temple, and they were convinced that they were really leaving.

"Shouldn't have come."

"It's just embarrassing."

"Tsk tsk tsk, Nanjing Chengdong Lin? You're just talking a lot."

Shi Kefa was packing books silently in the room. He didn't bring many things with him when he came to Beijing this time.

He could naturally hear the rumors from the outside world, but it didn't matter. Shi Kefa didn't care about the world's slander.

What he wants to do is bring peace to all generations!

And he held the book tightly with both hands. After a few days, the city of Beijing would know if I, Shi, am here to embarrass myself?

"Sun Kewang!" Shi Kefa called out.

"Sir!" Not long after, Sun Kewang came with a steel knife hanging on his waist.

"Prepare the sedan chair and enter the palace later."

Before the action started, Shi Kefa realized that he still had to enter the palace once.

----

At this time, the inner courtyard of the palace.

Wang Qi sat at the bottom, watching a group of eunuchs and maids serving the emperor, while the queen also stood aside, adjusting the emperor's embroidered robe from time to time.

"Shi Kefa will leave for Nanjing immediately. Before that, he will come to visit the emperor and the queen," Wang Qi seemed to be telling a trivial matter.

Hearing Shi Kefa's name, the empress who was arranging the emperor's clothes trembled subconsciously.

Narrowing his eyes, his eyes fell on the queen's back. It couldn't be said to be admiration, but Wang Qi felt that women sometimes communicate better than men. He said slowly: "Queen, do you have anything to say to me?"

"You guys go down first," the queen removed her jade hands from the emperor and ordered the maids and eunuchs: "Move the emperor to the side hall as well."

Not long after, only Wang Qi and the Queen were left in the palace.

Turning around, her hands clasped together and hanging on her lower abdomen, her delicate yet plump body trembled slightly, the queen lowered her eyebrows and faced Wang Qi, but she didn't have the courage to face him.

In the East Pavilion, the atmosphere was a little subtle, or ambiguous, for a while.

Wang Qi was naturally distracted. He looked at the beauty in front of him, just to make sure that after meeting Shi Kefa, the queen's choice was more determined?

Facing Wang Qi's captivating gaze, the queen's cheeks were as red as blood, as if she were naked with no secrets at all, completely exposing herself to this powerful minister.

"Please" Finally, the queen's voice was like a mosquito sonar, but after all, she could hear some: "Please, Duke of Qi, save me and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Why do you say this?" Wang Qi asked knowingly.

"When Shi Kefa met the emperor, he wanted to take advantage of the chaos in the city and lead people into the palace to rescue the emperor." Since the queen chose to fall in love with Wang Qi, she no longer concealed it, her beautiful eyes disappeared from panic, and she tried her best to recount the situation of that day. come out.

The Queen has been anxious and confused these days.

In the end, between protecting her children and the Ming Dynasty, she chose the former.

No one dares to guarantee, how long will the emperor remain crazy?

Taking a step back, even if Shi Kefa succeeded in rescuing the emperor, it would not be long before the emperor abdicated after returning to Nanjing City, and the emperor's fifth brother Zhu Youjian was promoted to the throne and became emperor. Qi.

As for Emperor Tianqi's biological son Zhu Cian, there is no chance that he will inherit the throne.

No one will wait for Zhu Cian to ascend the throne when he comes of age. Not only Wang Qi is eyeing him in the north, but there are endless arguments and attacks within Nanjing. Who dares to take this risk?

Therefore, when the time comes, Zhu Youjian becomes the emperor in Nanjing, which is the best and safest choice for the princes of Nanjing.

"Everyone wants to be Yu Shaobao," Wang Qi sighed after listening to the queen's retelling, high-fiving, and then his eyes narrowed: "But how many Yu Qian have there been in the past three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty?"

"Isn't Duke Qi worried?" The queen looked at Wang Qi with some doubts.

"Queen, take good care of the Emperor and your young son, and leave the rest to me." Wang Qi sat there, with the sun shining down, and his whole body was bathed in light, making it difficult to look directly at him.

After hearing Wang Qi's words, Queen Zhang was stunned for a moment, then a blush suddenly appeared on her cheeks, and she lowered her head and did not dare to look again.

"Sir, Shi Kefa is here!" Footsteps sounded outside the hall, and the waiter lowered his head and reported outside the door.

"Xuan, come in," the queen straightened her clothes and robes, and then ordered the people around her: "Go and carry the emperor out."

Not long after, Shi Kefa entered the palace under the leadership of the eunuch.

"Mistress Shi Kefa, please see your Majesty, the Queen." This time, when Shi Kefa entered the palace, he first looked up at the people in the seat, and then bowed down.

"I've met the Duke of Qi!" Shi Kefa stood up and saluted Wang Qi.

"The emperor is ill and cannot bid farewell to you in person," the empress sat behind the bead curtain and spoke warmly, completely unlike the panic she had just said: "Please take care of yourself along the way, please take care of yourself in Nanjing City."

Ok?

Shi Kefa listened to the Queen's words. The first sentence was fine, but the second sentence, "Tell Nanjing City to take care", what did it mean?

However, Wang Qi was watching eagerly from the side, so Shi Kefa had no chance to ask more questions. He could only suppress the doubts in his heart and bowed back: "I have inherited the kindness of the Holy Lord and regard myself as the emperor. I have devoted myself to the country. I dare not take credit for my service. Your Majesty." And Queen, please take care of yourself!”

"I understand," the figure behind the bead curtain nodded slightly and stopped talking.

"Master Shi, have you packed everything?" Wang Qi, who had been sitting there, turned to look at Shi Kefa.

"Don't worry, Duke of Qi," Shi Kefa had something on his mind. He didn't want to get too involved with Wang Qi now. If he saw any clues, all his hard work would be wasted!

"Okay, after returning to Nanjing, please mediate the adjustment of many things. You know that I, Wang Qi, can never bear to fight against each other!"

Wang Qi’s words are unashamed.

When it fell on Shi Kefa's ears, the veins on his forehead jumped sharply.

"It's my job,"

After giving Wang Qi a casual perfunctory sentence, Shi Kefa already had the idea of ​​leaving.

After all, with Wang Qi by his side, Shi Kefa had no chance to give other orders.

In the end, the minister could only raise his eyes and look at the Queen Zhang Yan's position: "After I leave, I will deal with everything and ask the Queen to take care of it!"

"Master Shi is determined," there was no hint in the Queen's words.

"Old minister, I retire." Shi Kefa bowed deeply, glanced at Wang Qi with his peripheral vision, and left expressionlessly.

"Queen, I also take my leave," Wang Qi stood up and bowed slightly.

"Farewell to the Duke" Since the palace incident, Wang Qi seems to have never claimed to be a minister in any public place.

With Wang Qi's departure, the entire East Pavilion fell silent again.

The queen turned slightly sideways and looked at the emperor beside her: "Come here, take the emperor to Kunning Palace. Go and bring the prince with you."

Since the emperor went crazy, the queen has never slept with the emperor again, but tonight, the queen wants to be with the emperor.

In Kunning Palace, the lights were brightly lit at the moment. After sending everyone away, the queen sat beside the jade couch and personally kneaded the Emperor's shoulders to relax her body.

"Your Majesty, tonight may be the time to decide our fate." For some reason, Zhang Yan felt that Shi Kefa and the others would take action tonight.  Perhaps a large army is attacking the city?

Or arson in the city?

Or mobilize a group of soldiers loyal to the emperor to surround Wei and rescue Zhao?

The queen didn't know what Shi Kefa had in mind.

Leaning gently on the emperor's body, Zhang Yan had deep worries hidden in her eyes.

With today's events, Wang Qi has obviously grasped the movements of Shi Kefa and the others.

But for some reason, Zhang Yan was still uneasy - she always felt that there was something she hadn't thought of.

"Your Majesty," Zhang Yan reached out and caressed Zhu Youxiao's face, and said softly: "If you can hear me, can you please give me an instruction?"

There was no response, just meaningless buzzing sounds.

After a while, the queen took a deep breath and returned to her usual graceful appearance. She wiped away her tears with a brocade handkerchief and said, "Here comes someone."

"The Queen." The voice of the personal palace maid came from the outer hall.

"Serve the emperor to undress," the queen stood up and lowered her head to hide the redness and swelling between her eyebrows. She didn't want to show her weakness in front of anyone.

Turning her face to look at her husband, the queen murmured to herself: "Your Majesty, please protect me."

When the queen in the palace was on tenterhooks and the emperor was confused.

In the city of Beijing, there is already an undercurrent surging.

Today, the Inspectorate is not far from Wang Gongchang. Since Wang Qi established a council on top of the six ministries, the status of the Supervisory Censor has plummeted. Recently, there is news that the Inspectorate will be renamed the Supervision Department and 50% will be abolished. The focus of the above officials is to supervise the censor.

Therefore, Jiang Guiyun has been in a bad mood recently.

He lingered in restaurants and tile shops all day long, cursing at the New Deal and Wang Qi.

If the parliament had not advocated freedom of speech, Jiang Guiyun would have been imprisoned by the Imperial City Secretary.

In the past few days, Jiang Guiyun was drunk every day in the Inspectorate, which also upset Zuodu Yushi, but as long as he didn't cause trouble for himself, he would let him go.

"A well-fed man doesn't know a hungry man is hungry, you son of a bitch, Duke of Qi," Jiang Guiyun held a wine bottle and staggered towards the mansion.

When he reached the intersection of Wang Gongchang and Inspector Yuan Streets, Jiang Guiyun seemed to see a group of people in a daze, taking advantage of the darkness and hurriedly sneaking into the side alley.

That alley is where Wang Gong's gunpowder is stored. No strangers have ever entered. Why is there a mysterious person going there now?

Thinking of this, Jiang Guiyun has already followed.

If he could seize wealth and credit from it and spread it to Wang Qi, he might be able to avoid being laid off?

Taking three steps and two steps at a time, Jiang Guiyun ducked into the alley as soon as his body moved.

As he ducked out of the dim street into an invisible alley, Jiang Guiyun suddenly felt his eyes go dark and felt a little uncomfortable. He was about to take two steps back and walk out of the alley.

A sinister voice sounded in my ears.

"Brother, is something wrong?"

not good!

Subconsciously, Jiang Guiyun felt that he might be involved in a major case.

"Nothing, nothing," Jiang Guiyun hurriedly waved his hands and turned to leave.

"Don't leave once you're here," as the words fell to his ears, a bright sharp blade quickly enlarged in Jiang Guiyun's eyes from far to near.

"No woo woo."

The sharp blade continued to go in and out of Jiang Guiyun's chest, bringing out a large amount of blood, which flowed all over the floor in an instant.

Because his mouth and nose were covered, after a brief struggle, Jiang Guiyun's limbs naturally drooped, leaning against the man in black, motionless.

"Find a place to bury it," Zhou Chuang said and gave the order.

After a while, the bodies in the alley were disposed of.

"According to the original plan, after one stick of incense, light the gunpowder magazine!" Zhou Chuang gave the order.

"understand!"

After saying that, a row of men in black came forward and leaned against the wall, with their hands folded.

"on!"

As the order is issued,

Humhhhhhh! ! !

Within a few breaths, most of the men in black had climbed up the courtyard wall, and then a rope hung down, allowing several people outside the courtyard to climb up with help.

Zhou Chuang had been lurking in Wang Gong Factory for more than a month and had already figured out the ways inside.

Not long after, everyone came to a warehouse in the backyard.

"I specially asked the shift leader to adjust the sleepover shift for me and other brothers to tonight," Zhou Chuang laughed evilly, took out the key, and inserted it straight in.

Accompanied by the crisp sound of the lock.

The door was slowly pushed open.

Zhou Chuang took the lead and stepped in, followed by everyone.

"Don't light a fire yet, the warehouse is full of flammable materials," Zhou Chuang ordered and walked straight inside.

Ok?

I paused for a moment, wondering why the warehouse today felt different from the past.

Zhou Chuang suddenly felt uneasy.

"Big brother?"

"ignition!"

Following Zhou Chuang's order, there was a bang, and bright yellow flames instantly burst out from the stick wrapped in oilcloth.

In an instant, the entire warehouse was illuminated.

But the scene in front of them made everyone in Zhou Chuang feel like they had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Where's the gunpowder? Where are the thousands of kilograms stored here?" Zhou Chuang's plan is to ignite these thousands of kilograms of gunpowder. This warehouse is in the middle. As long as it explodes, dozens of people in the entire Wang Gong Factory can be destroyed in an instant. The entire warehouse exploded.

But at this moment Zhou Chuang stood there dumbfounded: "Where is the gunpowder here?"

At this moment, in Honglu Temple.

Shi Kefa had not yet fallen asleep, he was waiting for the shocking and complete explosion.

At this time, Sun Kewang and a group of soldiers were fully dressed in the courtyard. As long as Shi Kefa gave an order, they would take advantage of the huge chaos that the entire capital was in to break into the imperial city and rescue the emperor!

Shi Kefa had been pacing the room several times, and Sun Kewang and others in the courtyard were also a little anxious.

"It's time!" Shi Kefa frowned and walked out of the room, looking in the direction of Wang Gongchang: "Did something happen?"

"Those hidden lines were laid out months in advance. Since we arrived in Beijing, we have not communicated with them openly. Nothing will happen!" Sun Kewang wanted to comfort his master.

"Report!!!"

At this moment, a roll call suddenly came from outside the hospital.

"The Chief Consul is here!"

Wang Qi is here?

at this time?

Almost instantly, Shi Kefa was about to collapse on the ground. (End of chapter)
