Chapter 424 Return to Beijing

Ma Yan followed Zhao Qian's movements and stood up, "Your Majesty, the rebellion in Bianzhou City has been put down. I am here to welcome your Majesty back to the capital!"

"good!"

Zhao Qian is naturally happy that the crisis is resolved.

He remembered Ma Yan's old illness, turned his head and said to the people around him: "Come out with an empty sedan and give it to General Ma."

"Well, thank you Your Majesty, but I can just ride a horse." Ma Yan was a little surprised. He had never been in a carriage before, and he always rode a horse wherever he went.

Zhao Qian waved his hand and said, "Don't be embarrassed. Your old illness has relapsed and you have put down the rebellion and worked hard. How can you ride down the mountain again? It's so tiring."

Ma Yan looked a little ashamed, lowered his head slightly and said: "This matter is because I and others did not distinguish right from wrong, thinking that those guys in the west of the city were the ones to put down the rebels."

Who would have thought that the Jiang family, which had always been law-abiding, would suddenly rebel?

On weekdays, Ma Yan always praised Zhao Xingyu's virtuousness and benevolence. Even if it was about the private affair, he just thought that Zhao Xingyu was confused for a moment and did such a big thing.

But he never thought that he would even dare to kill his father and commit rebellion!

Thinking of this, Ma Yan was really angry. He was really blind before.

Zhao Gan suppressed his smile. If the two military camps in the east and south of the city were stupid, the Jiang family would not have this opportunity.

"General Ma doesn't know after all." Zhao Qian said lightly, and then said without any doubt: "General Ma, please get on the carriage."

Clearly feeling Zhao Qian's displeasure, Ma Yan did not dare to say any more and quickly responded: "Yes."

Zhao Jin was beside him, lowering his eyelids and remaining calm.

He followed Zhao Qian down the mountain, and the group headed towards Bianzhou City.

It's just that everyone no longer has the joy and happiness they had when they came for winter hunting, and everyone has a straight face.

When approaching Bianzhou City, the entire team stopped. Zhao Jin looked up and saw a circle of ministers standing at the gate of the city. All the ministers who could go to the court were already here.

"I respectfully welcome His Majesty back!" the ministers shouted loudly.

All the officials who stayed in Bianzhou City knelt down, led by the Taifu who was in charge of court affairs these days.

"Everyone, get up."

The Taifu stood up, and Zhao Jin could clearly see the slightly weathered look on his face.

He was much more haggard than when they left.

When Zhao Qian saw this, he didn't even look at the Tutor, he waved his sleeves and said: "Go back to the palace first!"

The city gate is not a good place to talk.

This rebellion was started by the prince's mother clan and brought disaster to the entire Bianzhou City. The people did not know about it on May Day.

Although now, because Zhao Qian and others have returned, the common people do not dare to go directly to the street to look, but they rely on the doors or windows of their homes to look out.

After their conversation at the city gate was heard by the people, who knew how it would be distorted?

Back in the palace, all the ministers stood at the bottom with their eyes and noses in mind, silently.

Zhao Qian glanced at the officials who stayed in Bianzhou City one by one, "What's going on? Are all of them deaf now? Or mute?"

"Report to Your Majesty." The Taifu took a deep breath and stood up.

"While your Majesty was on his way to the hunting ground, he handed over the affairs of the palace to his ministers. I should report to your majesty the situation in the court during these days.

Looking at Taifu, Zhao Qian frowned and said, "Go ahead."

Zhao Jin, along with everyone else, looked at Taifu.

The Taifu said solemnly: "After Your Majesty left Bianzhou, we were in peace for a while, but a few days ago."

"Jiang Shulin led the people from the military camp in the west of the city to suddenly take control of the government offices and various departments in Bianzhou in the middle of the night. Fortunately, the Imperial Army and the Royal Forest Army responded quickly."

"They protected the palace in time, and soon after, the Qi Army from the military camp in the north of the city also came to help."

Speaking of this, Ma Yan and another general Xu Yan standing nearby blushed and felt ashamed.

"Unexpectedly, Jiang Shulin and others went to find the two generals from the Chengdong Military Camp and the Chengnan Military Camp first, making them mistakenly believe that the Qi Army wanted to rebel."

The Grand Tutor sighed heavily and revealed his most disappointing part, "Originally, after this incident broke out, both the Forbidden Army and the Royal Forest Army were staring at His Highness the First Prince."

"His Royal Highness the eldest prince has not made any changes. We even thought that His Highness had nothing to do with this matter. Who knew..."

"Just last night, His Royal Highness the First Prince suddenly disappeared from the side hall of the palace."

How could a living, well-behaved person disappear?

Then Zhao Xingyu can only run away.

Zhao Jin's face suddenly darkened. He looked at Qi Jiahan and saw solemnity in his eyes.

Without caring much, Zhao Jin interrupted the Taifu directly, "Master Taifu, have you chased the eldest prince back?"

"We have never." The Taifu shook his head, "We immediately sent people to chase him, but we couldn't find any trace of the eldest prince."

It's over.

Zhao Jin and Qi Jiahan made preparations, but they did not expect that Zhao Xingyu changed his plan and gave up taking Bianzhou directly. Instead, he left Bianzhou and looked for another opportunity.

Now, it is almost the worst situation.

When Zhao Jin asked this, Zhao Qian naturally remembered what Zhao Jin and Qi Jiahan had told him.

"That's unreasonable!" Zhao Qian was furious and slapped the dragon case vigorously.

He stood up and paced back and forth next to the dragon chair. After stopping, he stared directly at Taifu, "Taifu, do you really not know where Zhao Xingyu is?"

The Taifu put away the dejection on his face and said with a straight face, "Your Majesty! I can guarantee that I have never contacted the eldest prince since he was imprisoned."

"Not to mention knowing where the eldest prince is at this time."

Zhao Jin's eyes swept over Taifu vaguely, then raised his head and glanced at Zhao Qian.

Zhao Qian waved his hand and said, "I understand."

But Zhao Jin clearly saw that Zhao Qian did not completely believe the Taifu. He suspected that the Taifu had colluded with Zhao Xingyu.

impossible.

With the Taifu's temperament, he couldn't do such a thing. Moreover, if he had the help of the Taifu, Zhao Xingyu would not need to directly cut off the Jiang family in order to leave Bianzhou.

Thinking that the prince had left, Zhao Jin felt a little anxious and did not want to get involved with Zhao Xingyu here anymore.

"Your Majesty, there is no doubt that the eldest prince has escaped, but it is not certain whether the eldest prince was involved in the rebellion."

The ministers looked at Zhao Jin in astonishment, and Zhao Qian frowned and asked, "Duke Xuanping, do you want to plead for Zhao Xingyu?"

Haven't Zhao Jin and Zhao Xingyu always been at odds?

"Your Majesty, I am not pleading for the eldest prince, but I feel that it is necessary to find out who is involved in the treason case."

"There is suspicion on the eldest prince. This is irrefutable. As for whether he is really involved, it is better to summon the Jiang family to come forward and ask clearly."

The Jiang family was abandoned directly, and Zhao Jin didn't believe that they would still work hard and cover up for Zhao Xingyu.
