With Bai Qiutong's approval, Oyadan would no longer be afraid. Now was the time for her to show her loyalty and win Shen Ao's favor, so how could she be soft-hearted? This was the scene before her.
The two bloody men were pushed out, which was not only a shock, but also a warning. A warning to others not to take advantage of the barbarian post house, otherwise this would be an example.
Daman Posthouse is a piece of territory specially allocated to Daman by Emperor Qianwen. When it was first established, he said that they have independence and autonomy, which is equivalent to the territory of the barbarians. So what to do in their own territory, naturally Emperor Daqian's permission was not required. Even if Emperor Qianwen knew about this move, there would be nothing he could do about it.
Soon, word of this matter reached the palace.
At this time, Emperor Qianwen was no longer in the Yangxin Palace, but went to the Yamei Palace of Concubine Zhu in the harem.
Concubine Zhu, the Empress Dowager's niece, is also the biological mother of the seventh prince Tang Jian.
Concubine Zhu was gentle and considerate, and she never fought or fought in the harem. She never did anything to boss around or bully others because of the empress dowager. Of course, because of her relationship with the empress dowager, there were also people in the harem. No one is his enemy.
Even when the former crown prince's biological mother, Concubine Li Huang, and the biological mother of Prince Xiang, Concubine Yuan, fought, it never affected Concubine Zhu.
Over time, this place became a piece of pure land in the palace, and it was really a place for proper cultivation of health.
It's a pity that Zhu's appearance is average and she doesn't like Emperor Qianwen very much, so she doesn't come here very often. This time she came here, of course, to avoid the helpless person who asked for mercy.
There was really no other way. As soon as the day broke, many people wanted to see him in various ways. Among them, some interceded for Marquis Zhongcheng, and some wanted to kill Marquis Zhongcheng. But things got out of control. Under such circumstances, how could Emperor Qianwen make any guarantee to anyone?
Even if he couldn't make any effective decision, he could only avoid it. He said that his dragon body was not in good condition, so he came to Yamei Palace to hide and be pure.
I don’t want to see him again, but any news will be delivered in time. When Yan Fu reported that two bloody men were launched from the barbarian posthouse, Emperor Qianwen couldn’t help but snorted angrily, “It’s useless. big eater."
Emperor Qianwen was so smart. He gave Baili the imperial edict to let him act easily, just because he wanted to see them use their methods to settle the matter. But now it seems that the other party did make a move, but it was obviously blocked. The barbarians saw through it and carried out serious damage.
Thinking that the thirty dead soldiers didn't even make any movement, Emperor Qianwen's face became much more serious, "Let the Emperor's Guards go check and see if there are any powerful people in the barbarian post that we don't know about." .”
It is not something that ordinary people can do to prevent thirty dead soldiers from entering or exiting without making any noise. Even if the barbarian soldiers are well prepared, it is impossible for there to be no movement during a melee. , but the Emperor's Guard didn't hear anything, so there can only be one result, there is probably a crouching tiger, hidden dragon in the barbarian post house.
"No, I will do it immediately." Yan Fu agreed, and then turned around to make arrangements. But in fact, he and the emperor knew that it would be very difficult to investigate the truth. After all, we can't go deep into the barbarians. In the post house, it will be very difficult to find out what powerful people there are. If you are really a powerful person, how can you find it so easily?
Yan Fu left in a hurry, and Emperor Qianwen put this matter aside for the first time. At this time, he was more concerned, or worried, about that person's reaction.
If Marquis Zhongcheng died last night, there is no way anyone can do anything about the so-called death that cannot be resurrected. But now, if people are not dead, then he has no idea how things will develop.
In particular, some people are called lunatics, because they are people who don't act according to common sense at all.
...
Liaozhou.
The night after the incident happened, one after another the homing pigeons landed in front of the guard chief Shi Lei.
Zeng Tong understood what happened to Marquis Zhongcheng at dawn. His first feeling was that it was a conspiracy, and his second feeling was that he must inform the young master of the matter, and tell him immediately, without any delay. time.
In order to ensure that the message was delivered correctly, Zeng Tong released five homing pigeons in succession, and four of them fell into Shen Ao's hands.
"Snapped!"
The original solid wood square table was scattered on the ground, turned into pieces, and became firewood.
Shen Ao was also too angry, so when he slapped the palm, he did not use the strength well, and blood flowed from his palm.
Xuefei on the side didn't know what happened, but it was the first time she saw Shen Ao getting so angry. Her eyes froze and she was very angry. But at the same time, she didn't forget to take out the Sifang from her arms. The silk cloth came forward to bandage Shen Ao's wound.
He allowed Xue Fei to help him treat the wound. After half a cup of tea, the bleeding stopped, and he stood up immediately, "Take care of yourself, let's rush back to Daliang City overnight, and take the greeting note to find King Zhong. Ask him to open the city gates and let us leave."
After leaving the city overnight, although everyone didn't know what happened, it was obviously a big deal, so everyone went to carry out their duties with serious expressions. Xue Fei, who was left behind, looked at Shen Ao with a curious look on her face, "What exactly happened?"
"Let's see, something happened to my uncle." Shen Ao had complete trust in Xuefei, so he handed over the news he had just received.
Xuefei scanned the contents on the note, and then a murderous look flashed in her eyes.
Others may only know that Zhongchenghou is Shen Ao's uncle, and the uncle and nephew have a very good relationship. But Xue Fei knows better that Zhongchenghou is also an important chess piece arranged by Aunt Xue in Daqian, in order to protect the safety of the young master. .
For this reason, Aunt Xue once said that she was afraid that the emperor would feel uncomfortable.
In this case, does this matter also have the emperor's intention? Thinking that there are some things that cannot be explained to Shen Ao now, after hesitating for a while, Xue Fei decided to give an appropriate reminder. "Master, this matter Why does the emperor ignore it? Is it because the young master came to Liaozhou and was unhappy with Prince Zhong? Or is it because he wants to weaken the young master's strength?"
"Huh?" Hearing this, Shen Ao quickly raised his head and looked at Xue Fei carefully. He didn't think about it that much at first. He just thought that someone was targeting his uncle. After all, before he came here, he heard about the return of Marquis Wu Yong. Regarding the matter of Daliang, I also knew that this person was not getting along with his uncle. But now that I heard Xue Fei's reminder, I felt that it made sense.
Emperor Qianwen was the emperor of a country. If he didn't approve of some things, would the people below dare to do anything wrong?
Also, Shen Ao once heard from his uncle that the emperor had a very powerful force called the Tianzi Guards. They had the power to supervise all officials. With these people here, would Wu Yonghou not notice what they were doing?
Even if he didn't notice it before, couldn't he see that this was originally a framed drama? Why didn't he want to find evidence to prove his innocence, but instead wanted his uncle to stay in the barbarian posthouse, and even the Zhongcheng Hou Mansion was sealed? State, the slaves there were also imprisoned and have not been released?
If time goes by, who knows how much suffering those slaves will suffer? Even being sent out is not impossible.
All of this could have been avoided, but the emperor had no intention of taking action. What did he want to do?
After Xuefei's reminder, Shen Ao's mind finally came to his senses, which made him feel that even if the emperor was not involved in this matter, some things might have been acquiesced.
Thinking that even the emperor had acquiesced, Shen Ao felt a little overwhelmed. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to solve this matter. But now is not the time to think about these things. The first thing to do is to return to Daliang City first. If no one goes back, then there are many things that cannot be done even if they are thought of, right?
After sending the invitation, Prince Zhong's palace responded quickly, and Prince Zhong's chief staff officer Xiu Zhe personally escorted Shen Ao and others out of the city.
Although at this time, neither Xiu Zhe nor King Zhong knew what happened. After all, they did not have carrier pigeons and could not receive the news so quickly. But their intuition told them that something must have happened.
When Xiu Zhe sent Shen Ao out of the city, he said with concern and sincerity, "His Royal Highness King Zhong said that Duke Zhong is a great talent and he appreciates it very much. If you need help with anything in the future, please feel free to ask for help." Open your mouth and the loyal kings will do their best to help."
This is an obvious show of goodwill. After getting to know each other in the past few days, King Zhong has become more convinced that Shen Ao is a talented person, that is, a talented person. Of course, he should try to win over him as much as possible.
"Thank you so much for Prince Zhong's love. I understand. By the way, Mr. Ren An, one's student, stayed here. He knows how to handle matters related to the bank. Mr. Xiu needs to take care of everything." Shen Ao felt that Prince Zhong He wanted to recruit someone, but he would not agree to it anyway. If he chose a vassal king without relying on the big tree of the emperor, wouldn't that be a bad idea? Not to mention, he still has so many things. His relatives are in Daliang City. If he really takes refuge with Prince Zhong, who knows what the emperor will do in anger?
Shen Ao didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either. This was originally expected by Xiu Zhe. After all, he was a popular person in Emperor Qianwen's eyes. If he could use just one or two words for King Zhong, I'm afraid even he himself wouldn't be able to do so. will believe it.
Shen Ao finally left Ningcheng overnight. In order to rush for time, Shen Ao asked Shi Lei to lead the escort team as normal. He, Xue Fei, and Ao Qi, a total of five people, one person and two horses, quickly headed towards Daliang City under the night. Come.
