Chapter 668 The Queen's Road (4)
"Very good, brother Zhang, you can't relax during this period, you must strictly guard the entrances and exits of the palace to prevent anyone from taking advantage of troubled waters." Xun Zhen solemnly ordered.

Suddenly a burst of crying came into the hall from outside, Xun Zhen frowned slightly, and was waiting for an inquiry, Jiang Xingjie hurried in to report, "My lord, several first-rank concubines in the harem are crying outside the hall, saying that they must see the emperor .”

"You go and send them away. If someone doesn't obey the order, they will be taken back to the harem directly, saying that the emperor is busy, and it's not the funeral time, so it's ugly to cry." Xun Zhen said displeasedly, what time is it now? , but also to add to the chaos, if it spreads, people will only say that the emperor really died.

Jiang Xingjie nodded, and hurriedly turned around to go out. Xun Zhen slightly opened the window, seeing Jiang Xingjie half-persuading and half-pushing the first-rank concubines out of Hualong Palace, and then closed the window to prevent the cold wind from blowing in.

Wei Lun stood up and said, "Time is running out now, and I won't stay too long, Alan's niece, you should be more careful."

Xun Zhen also got up and took the children back from his aunt's arms, and sent them out, "As long as the merchants are stable and don't take advantage of the chaos to raise prices, and if I deliberately let people publicize, then the chaos in the imperial capital will pass soon..."

Xun Lan held Xun Zhen's hand and was reluctant to let go. She wanted to stay here with her, but the Wei family also needed to take charge of the inner courtyard at this pass. After all, the Zhu family was old. Can't stay to help you..."

"Auntie, what nonsense did you say? You are the mistress of the Wei family, and you must take care of your husband's family no matter what. I really understand." Xun Zhen shook his aunt's hand instead.

The snowflakes gradually fell and grew bigger. Xun Zhen stood on the corridor in front of the Hualong Palace and watched her aunt look back at her several times with the support of Wei Lun. She just waved her hand to let her not worry until the two of them left the gate of the Hualong Palace. , and then turned back with people.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Nurse Cen looking around in the inner room, she seemed to be hesitating, so she sneered, "What are you doing here?"

"Ah!" Nurse Cen exclaimed, then turned to look at Xun Zhen with a pale face, patted her chest and knelt down and said, "Director...my lord, I...I didn't do anything, I...looked at the time I'm afraid the little Highness is hungry, so I just broke in without notification, and I just wanted to see if the chief steward and the little highness are with the emperor inside?" Finally, he looked at Xun Zhen with big innocent eyes.

Xun Zhen looked at her carefully for a while, and saw that she was knelt on the spot uneasily clutching the corner of her clothes. She didn't see any suspicious signs. Looking into the hourglass, it was indeed the time for her son to drink milk, so he With a cold face, he said: "Get up, it's hard for you to do your best to His Highness."

Watching her approaching slowly, handing her son to her, and then sitting on the other side of the kang table, watching her skillfully lift off her clothes to reveal her plump breasts to breastfeed the baby, her concentrated expression is quite moving, this Putting down his guard, he leaned on the pillow and lost his mind for a while. After a while, someone came in to report the matter, and then he got up and sat up to deal with the matter.

As soon as Wei Lun left the palace, he asked Xun Lan to be sent home, and then he rushed to the bank with his men who were waiting outside. However, there are more and more people, and the anxiety on their faces cannot be resolved. They turned their heads and said to the subordinates at the side: "Go back and ask someone to carry the silver box to the bank. Remember to try to take a detour in the imperial capital. Let’s just say it’s the money from the Wei family’s bank, so people don’t have to rush to get it, it’s guaranteed enough, the capital is very stable, and the Wei family is a big business, and they never thought of running away…”

His subordinates nodded, and then he looked at the sky, "The Chamber of Commerce hastened to send a message asking them to gather, saying that I have something to say..."

With the warm sun shining on his body, he felt that his whole body was no longer so cold. The Wei family cannot survive and develop in China without being close to the royal family. Besides, he has also assessed that the risk inside is not too big, so this game of chess must be played well by the Wei family. , to obtain greater benefits in the future.

At night, the chaos in the imperial capital was contained to a certain extent due to the daytime chaos, and because of the heavy snow, the turmoil that was expected did not break out as expected. Master Bai pounded his fist on the solid wooden table of the Eight Immortals, "How could this happen?" He kicked towards the solid wood carved round stool.

Guardian Zuo and several other high-ranking officials of the White Lotus Sect stood aside with ugly faces. The originally planned scene did not happen. Now the congregation are trying their best to lobby, but fewer and fewer people believe in it. The big storm is destined to be unstoppable.

"Your Highness, don't be too upset. According to the news from the palace, the dog emperor has not been awake. As long as he can't appear on the execution ground tomorrow, all their actions to dispel the rumors will fail. We can take this opportunity to command the congregation again. Attack the palace with weakened defenses and kill the dog emperor, then everything can be solved." Zuo Hufa blinked his gloomy eyes and said.

Hearing this, Master Bai's expression softened a little. This time, the loss of troops and the loss of generals made his heart ache. Just as he was about to make a sound, someone rushed in from outside, "Master, it's not good, some of our strongholds have been attacked. Some of the female congregants were taken away by the government's attack, and many were women from wealthy families. I'm afraid that some of our deployments in the imperial capital will be in vain this time..."

"What?" Patriarch Bai glared at him. This is his deployment of the court ladies and eunuchs who are second only to the imperial palace in the imperial capital. They are people who can play a role at critical moments. Now I am afraid that the government has already grasped the list of officials involved in the case.

"Master, it seems that someone has confessed our secret contact base, and it's not safe here. We'd better leave quickly, and now send someone to the rest of the branches to inform the congregants to leave first, so as to preserve our strength for tomorrow's battle." Among them someone suggested.

"Master, it's not good. Officers and soldiers rushed in..." A congregation outside rushed in to report, and immediately heard an "ah".

Hierarch Bai no longer hesitated, took the long sword and said, "Let's go." He left from the secret passage beside him, but his heart was extremely heavy. Hearing the sound of beating and killing outside, he couldn't help but quicken his steps. It's not easy to catch him either.

Royal Palace.

Xun Zhen fed a bowl of medicinal juice to Yu Wenhong, and seeing that he was still unconscious, he wrung out the hot towel and wiped his body for him, and finally leaned over and leaned his head on his chest, "Brother Hong, when will you come back?" Will you wake up?" Looking faintly at the burning charcoal basin in the dark of the room, "Wake up tomorrow, okay? My son and I are waiting for you, we agreed, did you hear me?" Finally, She pouted and looked at him, her eyes were full of hope, but it was a pity that the person lying down seemed not to have heard him, and that handsome face did not tremble at all.
