Chapter 276 Confrontation

Chapter [-] Confrontation

In the early morning of midsummer, the sky gradually became brighter.

The eastern suburbs are foggy and dark, and the streets and alleys are filled with the sound of watchmen yawning and beating their clappers. On the day of the fifth watch, it is fast and slow, "Boom—boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! "

The emperor did not go to the early court, but the courtiers had to show up.

As soon as the fifth watch was over, the Chen family's mansion was lit from the outside to the inside, and the oil lamps were lit one after another. The porter, Chen Tou, put on his coat, held the lantern in one hand, and took down the door bolt with the other to push the door open.

The rich door is heavy and old, the old and dull sound of "creak creak" slowly sounded, the quiet night was broken, and then, the lantern smashed on the green brick floor with a "bang", and the oil lamp flame suddenly flew high , and then suddenly turned off.

"what--"

"What did you say?"

Chen Xian stretched out his hand to signal Mrs. Chen to arrange the court clothes for him.

Old Chen's hands were shaking badly, and his speech was trembling and incoherent, "There are four or five... There are four or five strong men in front of our house... They are covered in blood... Lying at our gate..."

Madam Chen shook her hand, and the patch on Chen Xian's court clothes was tied crookedly.

"Is it four or five?"

Chen Xian's tone was very calm.

Old Chen's feet softened and he shook his head violently.

"Then are they alive or dead?"

Old Chen couldn't stand on both feet, and his voice was crying, "Slave...slave...slave is so frightened that I can't stand, how dare I look closely! I'm covered in blood... probably already dead... "

"There are a few people who don't know whether they are alive or dead, and dare to report to me. What use are you for?"

Chen Xian raised his head, the supervisor knew the trick, buried his head and pushed the old Chen's head out, not daring to relax, and trotted towards the front of the mansion from the second gate.

As soon as the person left, Chen Xian glanced down, lowered his voice, and said softly, "Don't panic, you can't do anything if you panic."

Mrs. Chen suddenly had mixed feelings in her heart.

Has this person said that before?

Don't tell her to panic, she will have everything, rice grains, Shuxiu sent to school, beautiful silk and satin, everything will be available.

At that time, the family was still in Wanzhou, and the direct line of the Chen family was dead. A Xian was the last son of the direct line. Ten catties of rice grains, five catties of pork, not much more, not to mention the travel money and silver taels to support A Xian to go to Beijing for the exam.Ah Xian wanted to work hard and insisted on going to Beijing to take the exam, so she turned on the lamp overnight to embroider the painting screens. One of the finely crafted large screens could be sold for four taels of silver, and the small ones were sold for two taels of silver.Oil lamps are expensive, and they light one. She threaded the needle on the left case, and Ah Xian worked hard on copying the book on the right case. Their shadows cast on the small wooden case gradually merged into one.

If I tell it, no one will believe it. The direct descendants of the Chen family in Wanzhou lived such a life when they were young.She remembered that after Ah Xian joined the cabinet, she casually asked those uncles in the old house in Wanzhou how their lives are now. If they can survive, why can’t they survive?”

Winners lose bandits, this truth is what Ah Xian has always admired.

Mrs. Chen's nose suddenly turned sour, and she almost shed tears.

Now she has everything, Yunsijin, Huanghuali wood, gold and jade, but why does she feel happier then than now?

Mrs. Chen took a deep breath, stretched out her hand to fasten Chen Xian's patch again and again, this is something she has been doing for decades, and she has long been used to it.

The manager came and went, but within a quarter of an hour, Mrs. Chen hid in the flower room.

"...all of them were the people we sent to monitor Duan Wang's mansion, and all five were alive! They were thrown at the gate of the mansion in the middle of the night, but they were cut off their tendons and tendons, and they fainted from the pain all night. The servant asked them to take cold water After waking up, he said that he didn't see clearly who did it, but the method was sharp and vicious... These five people are probably useless..."

"Alive?"

Chen Xian frowned and repeated, "The He family actually let them live..."

He's surrounded by Fang Qi's old troops, strong generals have no weak soldiers, and everyone in his army is vigilant against high-level tactics, and it is normal for them to find these pathfinding stones.

It's just that he never thought that the He family would dare to disrupt the balance and attack them...

Chen Xian narrowed his eyes, "Is it a demonstration? She is forcing me to move? But why do you want to survive..."

The manager didn't dare to answer these words, and buried his head down, only listening to Chen Xian's last words, "Where did the He family go yesterday?"

"According to the reports of those people, they were found on the East Street. If you walk down that road, Princess Duan probably went to Prince Yu's Mansion after leaving the palace."

"Going to see the second child!?"

This was an unexpected answer from Chen Xian.

Since He Shi has already noticed these people, why not strangle them all so as to hide his whereabouts.

The He family ordered these five people to be abolished, and then sent these five people to the door of the Chen family. They didn't seal their mouths and didn't follow up. They let them come back and told the Chen family where she went...

What exactly does He Shi want to do?
Going in and out of the palace, and then going to Prince Yu's mansion, was there any problem with He's actions yesterday?

If the matter in the palace is completed and the emperor's power is gone, then the He family will know about it when he enters the palace. The Wang family is stupid, and will be exposed after the event is completed. The second is whose son!She was not afraid that the second child would bond with Wang's mother and son, so she would hold her back! ?
If the Dongchuang incident happens, the top priority is to conceal it. Instead, the He family made a big fuss and used the spies' skills, but left them alive and sent them back to the Chen family to demonstrate...

Abnormality is extremely demonic, this matter must be unusual!

Chen Xian fell into a stalemate, the situation cannot be broken, and there is only one dead end!
and many more!

If you think about it the other way around, the emperor didn't actually pass away, and the Wang family hasn't had time to act yet?When the sixth son went to the south of the Yangtze River, the female He family had to put on a posture in order to protect themselves. Sending someone with a severed tendon and tendon to the Chen family was a demonstration and a deterrent. Those who couldn't hold their breath jumped out earlier, while the old emperor was still there, and logically wiped them all out...

This is the deceitful way of soldiers, He's going to cheat him!

Chen Xian's eyes slowly opened, whether it was false or real, often in a single thought.

"Send someone to An Guo Gong's mansion to talk to Mr. Shi, and to get in touch with the eyeliner in the palace. Whether it is false or true, there must be an explanation!" Chen Xian paused, "Send those five people back to Duan Wang's mansion. The Chen Manor is not an Asura hell, only enters the living, not the useless dead!"

This is to wipe the necks of those five people first, and then send them to Duan Wangfu...

The manager's knees softened, and he left in response.

Mrs. Chen came out from among the flowers, and the bead curtain was thrown down by hands, and the sound of "jingling dingling" was quick and crisp, like a string of a lute being eagerly and enthusiastically moved.

"Why don't you ask someone to ask for a face-to-face saint?"

Mrs. Chen frowned and asked softly.

This is the most effective method. Seeing is believing, and hearing is believing. Whether the old emperor is alive or dead, the dust can be settled with just one glance.

Chen Xian propped his hands on his knees, pondered for a while, raised his hand, and patted it on the wooden table beside him.

Mrs. Chen wanted to open her mouth to ask again, but she saw Chen Xian's gloomy face and pursed lips, but he did not continue.

"He dare not."

Xingzhao held a pair of bamboo scissors wrapped with copper wire in his hand, and with a "click", he cut off a flower that was as big as a bowl, put it lightly on the porcelain plate, and told Lianyu, "Chen Xian dare not go Once the Yiyuan Palace checks the authenticity, he will coax one of them, starve to death the timid ones and the bold ones, and if he is afraid, he will miss the opportunity to distinguish the authenticity from the fakes."

As soon as the flowers were put down, Lianyu sprinkled a few drops of water on the petals to keep them fresh.

"Once the palace gate is closed, no one knows what is waiting for Mr. Chen in the palace."

Lianyu smiled and said, Bie's girl is concerned about being a housemate, becoming an aunt, and climbing into the bed of the master, while Bie's wife and grandma are concerned about children, sisters-in-law and mother-in-law.

What is there to say?

Oh, people have no long-term worries, but they must have near-term worries.

In fact, it's not quite right. Putting it on one's own girl means that people have no immediate worries, and must have long-term considerations. The heirs are the first in the entire royal family. like a mother
So what is worrying is the life and death of the whole family.

God is so fair, if you give this to you, you must take that away.

Xing Zhao cut off two more flowers, and Lianyu presented the square handkerchief. Xing Zhao wiped his hands and followed Lianyu's words and said, "After passing through the Shunzhen Gate, civil officials get off their sedan chairs, and military officials get off their horses and enter the imperial city. Life and death are not up to you. The aunt in the palace has been in business for decades and is regarded as a taboo. Chen Xian is going to catch us by surprise with Wang, and the aunt has nowhere to vent her anger and resentment."

If Chen Xian dared to enter the palace rashly, Xing Zhao would admire him instead.

Unfortunately, he didn't dare.

All over the court, for so many years, he was the only one who could write a letter to see the emperor, and the emperor agreed every time, but it was replaced by someone else, even the emperor's younger brother, King Pingyang, handed over the booklet, eight out of nine times he was not allowed Allowed to see.

Hey, it's a pity that Chen Xian didn't dare.
