Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 404 New News
Zhiqiu has been serving Shang Kelan for so long, so she also knows this jade pendant.

For a moment, she was also very surprised, guessing: "Why did the empress's jade pendant appear here? Will there be any danger?"

In an instant, Zhizi's mind came to mind, the horse-drawn carriage and those men in black who appeared on the official road last night sank to the bottom of the lake like a big stone in her heart.

Immediately, Zhizi wrapped the jade pendant in a handkerchief with a complicated expression, put it in her arms, looked at Zhiqiu and said: "I'm afraid what you said is true, the current situation of the empress is not optimistic, we can only go to the place as soon as possible." Beijiang, ask the eldest son for help!"

Zhiqiu nodded firmly to her, and said, "Okay, then I'll hire a carriage when I get to the town, we'll dress up as men, and I'll drive."

"it is good."

After the two agreed, they hurried to the nearby town.

Thanks to the rule of Jin Yantang in the Great Zhou Dynasty, women also had the bad habit of not having to cover their faces in the street, which saved the two of them a lot of trouble.

That day, the palace.

Jin Yantang returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation as soon as he left the morning court.

Without Shang Kelan in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, it returned to its former desertedness.

No one prepared hot food for him on the table, and no one talked with him to share his worries.

Rarely, Jin Yantang sat alone in the bedroom, not going anywhere.

The sunlight outside the window came in, Jin Yantang's eyelids drooped slightly, against the light, he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this time, Fupu came in from the outside, and respectfully said to Jin Yantang: "Your Majesty, when I went to the clan mansion to collect the things of the empress, I found this in the confinement room."

As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and presented it respectfully in front of Jin Yantang. It seemed that there was something wrapped in the handkerchief.

Jin Yantang's eyes were slightly dazed, and after taking the handkerchief, he gently opened it to have a look.

But he saw a broken rosewood flower hairpin lying in the handkerchief.

Seeing that the flower hairpin broke in two, in an instant, the scene of Shang Kelan breaking it in the confinement room flashed into Jin Yantang's mind again.

On the side, Fu Pu quietly raised his eyes to look at Jin Yantang, seeing that his indifferent and deep eyes were full of emotions, he didn't know what to say for a while, moved his lips, and he lowered his head and asked: "Your Majesty, why don't you let this hairpin go?" The slave will take it and fix it?"

Jiaosifang has a place dedicated to restoring jewelry.

Hearing this, Jin Yantang looked at the hairpin, shook his head, and said in a low voice: "Since she is determined to break up with me, she will go to the temple to repair it. It is useless to repair the hairpin."

It is easy to repair the hairpin, but it is difficult to restore the love of his monk Kelan.

Seeing what Jin Yantang said, Fu Pu didn't speak anymore.
At this moment, the servant girl outside came to report: "Your Majesty, Mr. Yun is asking to see you."

Yunqing?Could it be that he found out the hiding place of the foreign army?

Jin Yantang's eyes flickered slightly, and he said to the palace servant: "Please come in."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The maidservant retreated in response, and brought Yun Qing in after a while.

Yun Qing was wearing a blue brocade-patterned jacket, with a respectful look on his handsome face, and said to Jin Yantang: "Cao Min has seen His Majesty, and His Majesty is blessed and safe."

Jin Yantang waved to Fu Pu, and Fu Pu retreated out with the people in the bedroom.

After they all left, without waiting for Jin Yantang to ask Yun Qing, Yun Qing took out a sign from his hand, handed it to him respectfully, and said: "Your Majesty, I picked up a sign yesterday."

He brought this brand on purpose, presumably he had discovered something.

Jin Yantang took the mottled sign and looked at it, but saw the word "Ankang" impressively written on it.

Suddenly, there was a slight wave in his eyes, he raised his eyes to look at Yun Qing, and said, "What did you find?"

Yun Qing replied: "Responding to Your Majesty's words, the grassroots found out that this brand was left to Empress Jiafei by the late Emperor before his death. , but has not been used, Caomin sorted out the information of Yunjiabao and learned that this brand was used to control that army."

As soon as these words came out, Jin Yantang's pupils shrank slightly, and his fingers were slightly clasped together.

According to what he said, didn't the first emperor hand over that elite soldier to Zhao Kehan ​​long ago?
And the strange army in the hands of the eldest princess is simply a cover?
No, not right.

Jin Yantang quickly vetoed this conjecture. He squinted his eyes slightly, thinking in his heart: The strange army in the hands of the eldest princess is indeed the result of her painstaking management over the years, and the three regions of northwest, southwest and southeast are indeed in her hands.

From this point of view, Zhao Kehan ​​has another army.

Thinking of this, Jin Yantang sneered, looked at the token and said: "My noble concubine hides it really deep!"

In this way, it is not difficult to explain that her canonization decree and the incident of framing Shang Kelan repeatedly before, plus the dementor incense in her palace, it turned out that someone secretly helped her!
Yun Qing nodded, and said again: "By the way, Your Majesty, the foreign army in the hands of the eldest princess will arrive in the capital in two days. They will gather outside the city gate and sneak into the city pretending to be refugees."

Hearing this, Jin Yantang looked majestic and indifferent, he nodded and said: "Okay, I will arrange everything myself and catch them all in one go."

After hearing Jin Yantang's words, Yun Qing couldn't help but blush a little, looked at him cautiously and said, "Your Majesty, why do you believe the Caomin no matter what they say?"

Jin Yantang looked up at him, then got up and patted his shoulder with a smile, and said, "I believe in Old Madam Yun and Uncle Yun, and I also believe in Yunjiabao."

People in Yunjiabao have always been righteous people, and they will not stop doing things that are beneficial to the people.

Otherwise, Jin Yantang would not have come to assist him when he overthrew the first emperor.

It was only later that the Yun Family Castle retired and once again lived in seclusion in Youzhou.

After Jin Yantang finished speaking, Yun Qing looked at him for a moment, as if trying to discern the truth from what he said.

After a while, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that your majesty trusts the grassroots' information, and the grassroots will not disturb your majesty, and leave."

Jin Yantang nodded to him and watched him leave, but his heart was not as gentle as his face.

His eyes flickered slightly, and he thought to himself: Did Yun Qing just test him when he asked him just now, or was it really just a casual question?
Compared with the latter answer, Jin Yantang is more inclined to the former.

After a while, he withdrew his eyes, looked down at the sign in his hand, and his eyes moved slightly.

This token is such an important thing, how could Zhao Kehan ​​not take good care of it?
The possibility of a coincidence is not ruled out for Yun Qing to get this brand, but is Zhao Kehan ​​not worried at all if he loses the brand?

Unless she has other means to control that rebel army.

Thinking of this, Jin Yantang said to the people outside: "Come here, drive to Ximeng Palace!"

He is going to Ximeng Palace to see Zhao Kehan, maybe he will find some unexpected discoveries.

Just when he left, he put the broken wooden hairpin on the table back into his arms.

At this time, in Ximeng Palace.

Now that Zhao Kehan ​​is the only one in the palace, the concubines didn't dare to offend her, so they all came to curry favor with her.

In the main hall, Zhao Kehan ​​was sitting on the main seat, wearing a bright red jacket and skirt that was close to true red, and wearing a gold step rocker on his head, with an elegant and luxurious demeanor.

She smiled like a flower, and seemed to be easy to get along with, giving people a sense of intimacy.
