Before the third prince could figure out the outcome, he heard Old Xia Ge say from behind: "It's good for His Royal Highness to have such a sense of caring about the country and the people, but... this matter of the Dengzhou Guards massacring the people is revealing.
It’s strange, and Zhao Qingshan, Mr. Zhao, was successful in suppressing bandits just a few months ago...it seems..."
There is no need to speak too clearly. Officials immediately reported it, saying that Zhao Qingshan was probably involved in this matter. As a relative of the prince, the prince should avoid suspicion.
As a result, the prince could only leave with regret.
The third prince was stunned, and then he realized that the always slow prince actually gave him a move to retreat in order to advance!
Fortunately, the officials under him reacted very quickly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should avoid danger, and the third prince is overseeing the Ziling Temple in the Imperial Division and cannot escape. What should we do?"
The third prince's heart was filled with excitement, and he immediately suppressed these words. He said anxiously: "Father, why don't we stop the fortifications of Zilingguan first, and I will go to Dengzhou first!"
When the prince heard this, his hateful eyes immediately turned to the third prince.
The Purple Spirit Temple was built for the Imperial Master's practice. Emperor Yufeng wanted to complete it before the Imperial Master's birthday, so how could he stop it.
It’s not like Xiao Jizai was asked to build the wall. Then Zilingguan would not be able to survive without him?
The prince had no choice but to say this, he could only hate him for his cunning.
At this moment, all the ministers started a heated discussion, and for a while they couldn't decide on a candidate. Some were talking about the sixth prince, and some were talking about the seventh prince.
I don’t know who suddenly said, didn’t the fourth prince go to Shandong to worship Confucius on the emperor’s order?
Doesn't it happen to be nearby?
This sentence reminded the prince's party and the third prince's party, and immediately someone said that it was appropriate for the fourth prince to go.
This time, no one expressed any objection.
If you want to find a mascot among the princes in the harem that does not involve any factional disputes and can represent the royal family, it must be the fourth prince.
It was probably only at this time that everyone could think of this prince who had always been on the fringes of the royal family.
Emperor Yufeng had no objections to this and sent his son anyway.
Compared with the prince and the third prince, the two princes he valued, the fourth prince was indeed a suitable candidate. He even ordered a large camp on the outskirts of Beijing to send a thousand elite troops to protect the safety of the fourth prince.
Han Jian suddenly suggested that the fourth prince had never participated in government affairs and was probably not familiar with the affairs of Dengzhou. What's more, it was such a chaotic environment. Even if a thousand elite soldiers were sent there, chaos would inevitably occur.
Moreover, the fourth prince's visit only represents the attitude of the court. In addition, a capable general must be present.
After saying this, almost everyone's eyes turned to King Chen, who had been standing at the front on the left without speaking.
Zhang Shoufu said quickly: "Eunuch Han is right. This trip is not only to find out the problems of local officials, but also the situation of Dengzhou Guards.
This involves mobs and epidemics, and it is extremely chaotic. Without a backbone to take command, I am afraid it will be difficult for the Fourth Prince to make a difference."
When the prince and the third prince heard this, they strongly recommended that Chen Wang Xiao Yu lead the Jin Yiwei to go there.
The fourth prince is not even qualified to participate in the competition, and King Chen is not a person who can rely on both sides, so it is most suitable for the two of them to go.
What's more, isn't the third girl from the Xie family going to Dengzhou?
That's Princess Zhun Chen. It's natural for Prince Chen to go with her.
After some discussion in the court, the matter was settled.
Everyone secretly wiped their sweat. At least the fury of thunder has passed for now. But they don’t know what King Chen and the fourth prince will find out when they go to Dengzhou. I’m afraid there will be another storm by then.
.
While Aunt Lan and others hesitated to speak, Xie Songhua carefully and carefully packed the things he wanted to take away.
"I'm going to see a doctor. Just help me prepare a few sets of men's clothes and hand bindings. I don't need to wear any jewelry." Xie Songhua ordered Ding Xiang and asked Cui Liu to write down the medicinal materials he wanted.
These medicinal materials were naturally allocated from the Imperial Hospital. After all, she was going to Dengzhou on behalf of the imperial court this time.
Then he started to talk about his little house. After all, he still hadn't packed it up and was about to leave.
Aunt Lan and Ding Xiang immediately put away their emotions and only took note of what she said seriously.
This is how people are, no matter how sad the Spring and Autumn are, as long as there is something to do, the emotions can be diluted a lot.
After the general finished giving instructions, someone came outside, saying that Xie Yuncang asked her to go to the outer courtyard.
In fact, it was not Xie Yuncang, but a letter from the palace, asking her to enter the palace to hear the announcement.
Even though she had medical skills and had demonstrated them in front of Emperor Yufeng, she was still a girl and the daughter of a minister.
To send her there like this, she must have a name, at least Emperor Yufeng must personally issue the imperial edict, which can be regarded as an explanation to the Xie family. She looks better on the surface, so naturally she will be praised again.
Of course, they are all false.
This was just a formality, because we were in such a hurry to get on the road that we didn’t even wait until the next day.
When Xie Songhua came out of the palace, he saw the carriage parked in front of his house.
The old lady came out with a group of people. Seeing her coming, there was a look of worry on her face, but she was going there according to the order, and she could not complain even if she felt it was very unreasonable.
Accept it with gratitude.
The old lady hesitated several times, but in the end she said, "Be careful."
In the eyes of the old lady, Xie Songhua is the glory of the Xie family. This glory is going to a place of dire straits, how can we not worry?
Xie Songhua said goodbye to his family very calmly and conveniently got on the carriage.
As for the maid at the banquet, she thought over and over again and only brought a green willow and a small green to prevent accidents.
The carriage drove all the way to the outside of the city and stopped. Xie Songhua opened the curtain and saw a Jin Yiwei riding over. "Miss Xie, this trip to Dengzhou is not easy. The road is not easy to walk. Please transfer to Zhenfusi."
carriage."
How come Jin Yiwei is accompanying him?
As soon as Xie Songhua got out of the carriage, he saw Xiao Yu sitting on the horse at the front and was stunned for a moment.
"The matter in Dengzhou is urgent. Your Majesty and Miss Xie will go first, and the elite soldiers sent by the imperial court will join us later."
Xie Songhua didn't ask any more questions. This was a major matter for the court and it would be bad for her to interfere too much.
Cuiliu quickly moved their luggage out of the carriage and moved it to the carriage over there.
Jin Yiwei's carriage is specially made, with steel plates embedded in the front of the carriage, and the horse in front is also a war horse. How can it compare with the Xie family's carriage.
After she sat down, she heard Xiao Yu's voice, "Let's go."
Xiao Qing did not get on the carriage, but followed the carriage on a horse.
Xie Songhua gently opened the car curtain and glanced at the sun outside the window.
Looking at it like this, the sun is going to set in almost an hour, and I don't know if I can make it to the official post office in Baoding.
The sun is moving westward, the chill is coming up little by little, and the colors of the sunlight are becoming thicker.
He ran so fast that the trees on both sides of the official road quickly moved back, and the mottled light and shadows also moved quickly.
From her angle, she could just see Xiao Yu's figure in front of her.
Even when he was sitting on horseback, his waist was straight and his jawline was tightly stretched. When the sun set, his entire face seemed to have been deliberately carved by man.
The Jin Yiwei who followed him were also well-trained, and each one looked like they were copied and pasted.
Originally, it was quite pleasant to enjoy the beautiful scenery and beautiful people like this.
It's just that Xie Songhua never thought that he would get carsick at this time.
It is not that she has never ridden in a carriage, and she has also traveled a relatively short distance in a carriage.
but……
She had never been in such a fast carriage, and after leaving the capital for a while, the road became bumpy.
At first she just felt a little uncomfortable and had a bad intuition.
