Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Chang'an, which had just calmed down, suddenly became turbulent because of Jiang Chong's meeting with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty again.  Sili Xiaowei's people began to discover clues of witchcraft in some inconspicuous places.  At first, the witchcraft pointed to by these clues was not a big deal, because these witchcraft only targeted some powerful people. Later, some of them gradually appeared to target important officials in the court.

    In fact, none of this was enough to alarm Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who was far away in Ganquan Palace. Even Jiang Chong didn't pay much attention to it at first. Even if there were some witchcraft against important officials in the court, it was just a private grudge. He was too lazy to care about it and didn't want to care about it.  .  However, it was not until a witchcraft targeting Changyi King Liu Kun appeared that Jiang Chong had to pay attention to it. When Liu Kun was involved, Jiang Chong began to investigate secretly. However, under this investigation, another one was inexplicably involved.  Man, this man is Mrs. Gou Yi.

    There is also Mrs. Gou Yi¡¯s unborn child

    Even this child, who did not yet know whether he was a boy or a girl, was among the cursed children, so Jiang Chong had to report the matter to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

    When the joy of having a new prince had not faded, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was angered by the news brought by Jiang Chong.  When his last prince came, someone told him that this prince had been cursed. You can imagine Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's anger.

    This anger almost made the elderly Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty lose his mind, and he immediately ordered Jiang Chong to investigate the matter thoroughly.  When Jiang Chong returned to Chang'an again, a bigger storm came to Chang'an City again.

    The city of Chang'an was in turmoil again, and people closed their doors tightly. In addition to the soldiers of Sili Xiaowei who were arresting suspects, there were also soldiers digging around on the streets.  From ordinary people to high-profile families, almost everyone was searched, except for a few mansions where no one dared to go.  Except for the Prime Minister Liu Quya, the imperial censor Sang Hongyang, and the Hou Huoguang of Anyang, almost all others were patronized by Sili Xiaowei's people without exception.

    Princess Liu Xijun of Jiangdu stood in the courtyard with a gloomy look on her face. Even her residence was searched by people from Sili Xiaowei. Although these people were not of high rank, they had the emperor's orders. She could only watch these.  People searched the house randomly, even picking up some stone slabs in the yard and digging in the soil.

    "Your Highness, I've offended you Even those in humble positions were following orders" A low-level officer who looked like a school captain said with his head lowered in front of Liu Xijun.

    "You even dare to investigate me? Will Bowang Court and Weiyang Palace also investigate?" Liu Xijun asked with a gloomy face. She asked herself that she had never done anything bad, so she was not afraid of these people.

    The captain bowed and said with a smile on his face: "Of course no one dares to go to Weiyang Palace, but it seems that Sili went to Bowang Garden"

    Although Liu Xijun is not a real princess, everyone knows that she is a disciple of the Grand Governor Huo Guang, and she has a very good relationship with the emperor's eldest grandson. As a school captain, although she has to do routine things, she smiles apologetically and does not dare to embarrass herself.

    "Captain, no abnormalities were found" the captain's subordinate reported beside him.

    "Catch the teamCatch the teamHer Royal Highness the Princess has been offendedI will retire now" The captain bowed and led the people without waiting for Liu Xijun to say anything else.  left.

    Looking at the messy yard, Liu Xijun said to the servants in the mansion with a gloomy face: "Take care of this place, I'll go into the palace."

    Liu Xijun said and walked out. The palace she mentioned was naturally going to Weiyang Palace to find Liu Jin.  She always felt uneasy. Just now the captain said that Jiang Chong had gone to Bowang Garden, which made Liu Xijun even more uneasy.

    The gate of Princess Jiangdu Mansion slowly opened, and a carriage was already waiting at the stone steps under the gate.  Liu Xijun stepped out of the mansion and was about to walk down the stone steps when he saw a middle-aged man in his early forties standing next to the carriage with a sheathed long sword in his arms, staring at him.

    Nowadays, Chang'an is in a state of turmoil, and even walking on the street will make people nervous. At this time, ordinary people dare not go out with weapons at all.  Liu Xijun found that this man was wearing a coarse short brown cloth. He was definitely not someone with an official position, and his aura was not that of an ordinary soldier.

    "Who are you?" Liu Xijun asked condescendingly.

    The man holding the sword did not answer, but took out a bamboo tube only the size of a finger from his arms, and then threw the bamboo tube to Liu Xijun through the air.  Liu Xijun reached out to catch the bamboo tube and looked at the man holding the sword with a questioning look, but the man ignored Liu Xijun and turned around to leave.

    Liu Xijun looked at the bamboo tube in his hand with a puzzled expression, then carefully opened it, and a roll of paper inside was easily poured out.  Liu Xijun unfolded the note and read it at the door of the house.

    There are only four simple words on the note "Hurry to Dunhuang", and below it is the mark of Qingluan.  Liu Xijun had seen this mark in Huo Tang's place. She knew that Huo Tang gave her this note, but why did she tell herself in such a subtle way in Chang'an???  Liu Xijun couldn't figure it out for a moment. She held the note in her palm, turned around and returned to the mansion.

    Liu Xijun, who returned to the mansion, did not go to Weiyang Palace to find Liu Jin. Instead, when the Chang'an city gate was about to close, he hurried out of the city with a few followers.

    "Miss, Princess Jiangdu has left the city." In the inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion, Huo Tang stood in the courtyard, holding a long object wrapped in brocade in his hand.  Behind her, her confidant maid was reporting to her the news of Liu Xijun's departure from Chang'an.

    "I understand. Send someone to protect the young master. I'll go see the madam." Huo Tang turned his back to the maid and walked out while giving instructions.

    Huo Tang was holding the brocade with one hand, as if he were holding a sword. At this moment, Li Yan and Huo Chengjun were talking in the room, and Zhuo Wenjun and Jin Ping were also there.

    "You all go down." Huo Tang quickly walked outside Li Yan's room and said to the servants and maids around him.  These people did not find it strange and bowed down one after another.

    Huo Tang opened Li Yan's door and walked straight in.

    People in the room looked curious when they saw Huo Tang holding something like a sword in his hand.

    "My sister is here" Li Yan greeted Huo Tang with a smile on her face.

    "Sister-in-law, pack your things, we are going to Dunhuang tomorrow night." Huo Tang looked serious, and without any prior news, he suddenly announced that he was leaving Chang'an for Dunhuang.

    Going to Dunhuang can be said to be something that Li Yan and the others have always hoped for, but they all know that this is really just an extravagant wish. Without the emperor's will, once they leave Chang'an, they may be regarded as treason.

    "This there is no order from His Majesty, and there is no news from the Marquis. Will leaving hastily at this time cause His Majesty's misunderstanding?" Li Yan was surprised and even more undecided.  He didn't want to cause any trouble to Huo Guang because of his own reasons.

    "There will be great changes in Chang'an. This is what the second brother meant. This is our only chance." Huo Tang said with a serious face, but did not elaborate on the reason.

    "Mom, can you finally be reunited with your father?" Huo Chengjun thought that when he arrived in Dunhuang, he would be able to see his father, whom he had not seen for several years, and seemed a little excited.

    "Since it is the intention of the Marquis, let it all be arranged by my sister." Li Yan nodded and said. She knew that it was not easy to leave Chang'an, and Huo Tang had to arrange everything.

    "Without further ado, go get ready!" Seeing Huo Chengjun cheering for joy, Zhuo Wenjun also showed a kind smile on his face.

    "Auntie, aren't you with us?" Li Yan felt that Zhuo Wenjun's tone was a little strange, and it seemed that he had no intention of going to Dunhuang together.

    "Although I don't know what your plans are, I know that some people must stay in the Hou Mansion. I am old and can't bear such a long journey, so Ping'er can stay with me!" Zhuo Wenjun stood up and said  He looked at Huo Tang and said.

    Huo Tang and Zhuo Wenjun looked at each other and said nothing, just nodded slightly.  Although Jin Ping was reluctant to give up, he still obeyed Zhuo Wenjun's arrangement.

    Chang'an at night should be brightly lit and beautiful, but tonight there is only chaos in Chang'an.  When Jiang Chong led his people into Bowang Garden, they never came out again, and the troops led by the Prince Guard began to mobilize frequently in Chang'an City.

    When the prince walked out of Bowang Garden and came to Weiyang Palace, news that was either true or false began to spread in Chang'an.  Some say that the prince raised an army to rebel, others said that Jiang Chong wanted to frame the prince and was killed by the prince. In addition, the emperor was also placed under house arrest in Ganquan Palace by traitorous officials. The prince raised an army not to rebel, but to rescue the emperor.

    "Ji'eryou are confusedthis matter is full of doubts. You just need to explain it to your father. But you killed Jiang Chong and confirmed your intention to rebel. Now you have  It's hard to tell. What should I do" Wei Zifu from Jiaofang Palace said sadly.  She already knew that her son had killed Jiang Chong, and now he had blocked the four gates of Chang'an, and was mobilizing Chang'an's army in the name of the prince.

    "Mother, first the prime minister, and now my son. They are all using witchcraft to kill me. They are trying to kill me! I suspect that my father has been placed under house arrest by the traitor. Now please give me the queen.  Seal the letter, when I lead the troops to rescue my father, everything will come to light!" Liu Ju calmed down a lot at this moment. When he killed Jiang Chong in a rage, he followed Shi De's advice and announced to the outside world that the rebellious minister was imprisoned.  captured the emperor and framed him.  At this moment, he wants Wei Zifu's seal from the queen. As long as he insists that the emperor is imprisoned, he can legitimately mobilize the army with the seals from the queen and the prince. When the time comes, he will go directly to Ganquan Palace, whether it is to really rescue the emperor or to advance in advance.  After ascending the throne, the initiative rested with Liu Ju himself.

    "Then who is the traitor in your mouth?" Wei Zifu was already very worried.She was confused. She knew that the prince would be doomed if he took this step, but after all, it was her son in front of her.  In addition, Wei Zifu also had hatred in his heart as his two daughters were executed not long ago.

    "Prime Minister Zuo Liu Quya, this old man has escaped from Chang'an City and is probably on his way to Ganquan Palace." Liu Ju must have a good reputation when he raises his troops. Jiang Chong has been killed by him. As prime minister, Liu Quya is  The best choice for rebels.

    "There is no turning back when you draw your bow Just take it" Wei Zifu reluctantly took out a golden seal from his arms, which was the seal that symbolized the Empress of Han Dynasty.  Now that Liu Zhi had shot the arrow, Wei Zifu could only stand by his son's side even if he didn't want to.

    When Liu Zheng took the Queen's seal and went to various camps in Chang'an to mobilize troops, a group of more than 20 crown prince guards hurried over from outside Liu Jin's palace on the east side of Weiyang Palace.

    "I am here to protect His Highness on the order of the Crown Prince. Please move His Highness to the Jiaofang Palace." At this time, the Crown Prince Liu Zhi had not forgotten his son Liu Jin, and sent a team of people to protect Liu Jin and send him to the Queen.  The Jiaofang Palace.

    "Madam is about to give birth, I'm not going anywhere." Liu Jin also learned about the prince's revolt, but at this moment, Wang Wengxu in the palace was also about to give birth.

    Just when these guards didn't know what to do, dozens of figures suddenly appeared on the high wall. These people were dressed in black and moved like ghosts. Within a moment after they appeared, they killed all the guards who came to protect Liu Jin.  kill.

    "Youwho are you" The men in black stepped on the corpses on the ground and surrounded Liu Jin.  At this time, behind Liu Jin, his wife Wang Wengxu was also making her last efforts. The little life belonging to her and Liu Jin was about to enter this world.
