All the imperial doctors entered the palace in a hurry, causing panic inside and outside the palace.The palace maids in Wansui Palace were in a hurry and the old men were fiercely consulting and arguing. The turbulent atmosphere began to spread from Wansui Palace...
Jinzhan stayed in the Wansui Palace all day. When she saw the old men shaking their heads, sighing and frowning, she felt that the hope was getting less and less.
She finally left this panic and came to the Sanqing Palace.
Qingxu, the little Taoist nun who had saved her, was still sleeping. Jinzhan ordered people to lift Qingxu's quilt and use both soft and hard from the bed.Jinzhang asked Qingxu to find a way...but the little girl looked confused.
Jinzhan ordered without saying a word: Escort the Taoist Nun Qingxu to the Wansui Hall.
Qingxu kept saying: Empress Dowager, I am not a doctor, and I don’t even understand the pulse!
It's the queen!Jinzhan said angrily that she still cared about the title at this time, because she thought the title of the Queen Mother was inauspicious. If you can save me, you should save the official family again.
Qingxu was half-pushed and half-pulled out of the Sanqing Palace.
The Jinzhan was about to leave afterwards, but was attracted by the statue of Yuanshi Tianzun in the Sanqing Hall. The clay statue was made very exquisitely, with lifelike expressions and postures, especially the movements seemed to be alive.
Jinzhang stopped immediately.
She turned around and walked to the cushion of the statue to stand for a while. The eunuchs and palace maids beside her hurriedly avoided and retreated.The Jinzhang slowly knelt down on the cushion and looked up at the tall statue of the god looking down at the hall.
Maybe I shouldn't have lived until now... As soon as Jinzhan spoke, her voice choked uncontrollably because the scene of Guo Shao swearing to the sky on the way to Huainan many years ago appeared in her mind.
The scene at that time seemed to be right in front of you, and Guo Shao's voice seemed to be still lingering in his ears: Guo Shao is against the will of heaven.God is going to punish me, that's right.
Jinzhan bowed devoutly: Please ask God to take my life and let him live well...
Jinzhan has not been bowed to others for many years. Her status is respectful, usually accepting begging and gratitude from others; but now, Jinzhan kneels helplessly and humbly in front of the statue of God.
The expression of the statue was strange. At first glance, it looked calm, but when it looked closely, it seemed to be sneering, as if it was mocking the fragility of mortals.
The jindang stood up, lit three incense on the candle and inserted it into the incense burner. He bit his fingers and dripped the blood into the incense burner. He knelt on the cushion, closed his eyes, and begged to God with all his heart to take away everything she had...
……
The rain in the northwest stopped, but it was already afternoon.The central army issued an order and set off tomorrow morning.
Someone outside the tent reported: Grandmaster, someone is coming to Tokyo.
Li Chuyun's expression changed suddenly.The commander on the awesme battlefield was now like a frightened bird in Zhongli's eyes. Any movement could make him nervous.
Marshal?The sound outside the account sounded again.Because Li Chuyun didn't make any noise for a while.
Li Chuyun then spoke hesitantly: Take it here first...
After waiting for a long time, a man in cloth robe was taken into the tent by the soldiers.
The man in cloth robe came in and took out his things while saying: The villain is from Duke Gu Guo (Luo Yanhuan)'s mansion, and he brought Alang's handwritten letter, please ask Mr. Li to read it.He said in a deep voice again, something big happened in Tokyo!The official family is seriously ill and I heard that he is unconscious!
Unexpectedly, Li Chuyun did not show any shock at all.Of course, Zhongli did not have many surprises. They had already known in advance... not only because of the sudden order to transfer back to the army, but also another news.
You go down.Li Chuyun was very calm.
The man with cloth robe looked surprised and muttered: My son knew about it soon, so he quickly sent a villain...
After the messenger went out, Li Chuyun was a little moved: Luo Yanhuan is a brother who has survived his life.
Zhongli didn't say anything. When he heard this, he felt that although Li Chuyun was smart, he was almost at ease with sincerity... If Li Chuyun had experienced enough things at Zhongli's age, he would understand that Luo Yanhuan could send this letter, mainly because of brotherhood; but because of self-consciousness, it was a grasshopper on a rope, and a clear choice.
Zhongli believes... When choosing a life-and-death position, depending on the situation, some people will choose earlier and be more straightforward; some people will wait a moment, and are more willing to wait until things are clearer.
That's all, that's the difference; brothers who are desperate are still too light.
Li Chuyun and Zhongli looked at each other, their expressions even more solemn.It’s not that they are not shocked, but that they are mentally prepared.
Zhongli pondered: I didn't expect things to become so fast... There was a trace of subtle excitement and celebration in his words.
Li Chuyun's mouth twitched, and it could be seen that he was really saddened by the news about the emperor.Zhongli felt that Li Chuyun was enduring great pain from his subtle and unpretentious reaction.
Zhongli said with his ears: Mr. Li really has the style of achieving great things, and he is calm, steady and wise in critical moments!
Li Chuyun sat on the stool with his legs spread apart, with a cold face, alternating sadness and helplessness, and ignored Zhongli.
Zhongli whispered again: I am not prepared enough now, and I have suddenly had an emergency, and even turbulent.But Mr. Li was not prepared. Now is not the time to act rashly... the more critical it is, the more calm it is.
Zhongli understood that Li Chuyun was very cunning in his heart. Now he would definitely not be able to persuade him to rebel. Li Chuyun is not that stupid!
Because from the former Hexi Army to the center of the court, there were too many people hindering Li Chuyun, they were not prepared and the risks were too high; once they acted rashly, Li Chuyun could not control the situation at all.
It’s not impossible, it’s just a desperate attempt to do extraordinary things, such as killing a group of people from Wei Renpu directly.
But this approach is likely to fail, and it is not a person like Li Chuyun's style of behavior... Most of the people who are willing to take risks and fight to the death are willing to fight; Li Chuyun has too many things and is too old, and does not have the courage to be a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger.
Zhongli thought of a strategy that would make Li Chuyun accept more, and drag it down.The most important thing about Mr. Li now is to stay in the green mountains!You can't go back to Beijing too soon, it's definitely over when you go back!
Li Chuyun looked at Zhongli coldly, with anger in his eyes.
But Zhongli looked solemn and arrogant with a sense of loyalty and risking his life to make a fuss... Zhongli's management for countless days and his cautious words and actions, the trust he finally got was trusted and trust like a confidant; however, it is time to squander the trust he has gained through those hard work!
He said seriously: Any wise emperor will definitely get rid of Mr. Li at this time!The righteousness of the monarch and subjects, the friendship between life and death is useless. There is no choice now, and Mr. Li has no choice!
As long as you survive this time, it will be easier to deal with in the future.
Perhaps there are not many people in the court who are loyal to Li Gong, but there are the most people in this world who know the current affairs. There are more people who are unwilling to do nothing for their whole life and are struggling to find a place to rise!
As long as you wait slowly, there will be more and more people around you... There are many things that you don’t need to worry about by Mr. Li himself, and naturally there are many people who will fight for you.
Even Shi Yanchao may become Li Gong’s person!Don’t believe it, would Shi Yanchao listen to what he said in the past?Didn’t he be controlled only by the emperors of the previous dynasty? What’s the matter now?
Li Chuyun gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: Zhongli!Do you think this guild is against it?!
Zhongli was choked and hurriedly said: From the day he joined the command of Mr. Li, he knew that Mr. Li was loyal and righteous!
Li Chuyun said coldly: Then what do you mean now?
Zhongli was silent for a moment and sighed: The old man who is about to enter the earth has fame and fortune as light as smoke.I am planning for Mr. Li, and I am always for your own good and repaying you for your kindness!
Li Chuyun remained silent.
Zhongli said: Here is a reminder to Mr. Li that you have no choice now... but you have no choice in the future.
oh?Li Chuyun had a complicated expression and a haggard face.
Zhongli said: In the future, Mr. Li will devote himself to the country and can also be a pillar of assisting the king.At that time, you had the strength to accomplish great things, but you were loyal to the Daxu royal family. Wasn’t you more worthy of the world’s admiration?Why must fate be in the hands of others? Isn’t it good to decide where to go?
Sure enough, Li Chuyun was silent when he heard this, and the thorns in his words also decreased.
...After a while, Li Chuyun frowned and said: This letter must be read to Wei Renpu.
Zhongli hurriedly said: Mr. Li is wise!This is not a rash move. You have to make everyone feel at ease and don’t rush to inspire anyone!
Li Chuyun then suddenly stood up and went straight out of the tent, and Zhongli followed closely behind.
Wei Renpu, Zan Jurun, and the generals of the military were summoned.Li Chuyun told everyone that he had just received the news from Tokyo and then gave the letter to Wei Renpu.
Li Chuyun no longer needs to cover up this matter for Luo Yanhuan.
If Luo Yanhuan dared to do this, he would not have to hide his intention to make friends with Li Chuyun, nor would he be able to do it... Those people in the court, whether civil or military, knew it.
The atmosphere in the tent was suddenly sad, and some generals even started to cry in public.When Zhongli saw this scene, he sighed in his heart that Li Chuyun really couldn't rebel immediately!
On the contrary, Wei Renpu was very calm and not at all ostentatious.In the chaotic tent, some people were exaggerated, and even made Wei Renpu, deputy envoy of the Privy Council, feel the illusion that he was neglected.
But Zhongli's greatest attention was all on Wei Renpu, and he never ignored this civil servant for a moment!
When the army was still in Feng'an's old city, Wei Renpu was crying while holding an old Sui Dynasty monument, which was remembered by Zhongli.
Like a painting, very clear!
Zhongli had an insight into this civil servant and could deeply feel what he was at ease.
Zhongli remembered the past recorded in the book. When the country was mourning, how did the ministers in the court cry in the mourning hall and shout at the sky and the earth? But how many of them were really sad?
The more the person who is engraved in his heart, when a huge change comes, he will not cry too hard. The pain that enters his heart will be silent...
Jinzhan stayed in the Wansui Palace all day. When she saw the old men shaking their heads, sighing and frowning, she felt that the hope was getting less and less.
She finally left this panic and came to the Sanqing Palace.
Qingxu, the little Taoist nun who had saved her, was still sleeping. Jinzhan ordered people to lift Qingxu's quilt and use both soft and hard from the bed.Jinzhang asked Qingxu to find a way...but the little girl looked confused.
