Chapter 72: Ning Fan's rebellion shocked the world
Wang Qinghong came to the official position from the first level of the third rank and stood at the head of the local civil and military affairs.
As soon as he fell, everyone around him couldn't help but scream in surprise. Outside Qingyun's door, the ground was paved with bluestone slabs. When Wang Qinghong fell, his forehead was bruised, and he didn't know if he hit his teeth, and there was blood on his lips.
[]
Everyone hurriedly helped him up, but he still had his eyes closed, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
The chief minister and subordinate officer were here to perform the ceremony. Upon seeing this, they quickly called for the good doctor of the palace.
There was a mess here, and Wang Qi and others also saw it.
Seeing that Dao Chi couldn't hide his tiredness, Wang Qi pulled him and said, "It's Uncle Hong. Erlang, go and have a look. If you feel uncomfortable, send him home."
When he spoke, everyone looked at Dao Chi.
The Taoist idiot had no choice but to follow Wang Qi forward. The two of them first bowed to all the adults, and then took over and helped Wang Qinghong.
The bruise on Wang Qinghong's forehead has now turned into a big bump the size of an egg, red and bright.
Wang Qi called twice, but Wang Qinghong didn't respond, and she couldn't help but feel a little flustered on her face.
At this moment, the doctor from the Good Medical Department hurried over, took his pulse, and concluded: "The wind evil has not healed, and I was already physically weak. In addition, I was overwhelmed with grief, and the anxious fire attacked my heart, and I fainted."
.”
When two royal officials heard this, their eyes were a little red. Of course they knew who Wang Qinghong was, and they also knew that the prince relied heavily on him, so they put the dam construction in his charge. Seeing him like this now, they all felt that he
He still has a conscience and deserves the prince's respect for him.
The local civil and military officials kept wiping their sweat, looking sad, and feeling both curses and admiration in their hearts.
No wonder someone can be promoted to the third rank at the age of 30. Look at this level, just like his dead father. Others have been standing here since dawn, basking in the sun all morning without saying anything; he just
He rushed over and stood here for less than two-quarters of an hour before he "couldn't bear it" and fainted.
But, when did the palace officials bribe him? Could it be the work of these two young men from the Wang family?
Not only were they confused, most of the palace officials also did not believe that Wang Qinghong had really fainted. When it came to his feelings for the prince, could a local official who had become an official be better than them?
Everyone looked at Wang Qi and Dao Chi with thoughtful eyes. Dao Chi looked at Wang Qinghong like this and naturally knew that he was not cheating. Although he didn't know why he did this, he didn't want to be suspected.
He looked at Wang Qinghong carefully and asked the doctor with an anxious look on his face: "Doctor, what's wrong with my uncle? Is it broken? Do you need some medicine?" While speaking, he pointed at the corner of Wang Qinghong's mouth.
Wang Qinghong's lips were originally white, but there was a very red corner of his mouth with undried blood stains on it.
The doctor bent down and opened Wang Qinghong's lips. Inside, there were watery blisters the size of soybeans, densely packed. Near the corner of the mouth, several blisters burst, and only then did he see blood.
The onlookers couldn't help but feel anxious when they saw this. They didn't expect Wang Qinghong to be so impatient. The officials in the royal palace couldn't help but feel ashamed, thinking that they judge the heart of a gentleman with a villain's heart. The local civil and military officials were surprised that this gentleman had survived to the third rank.
Still retaining such "sincerity", it seems that the background is deeper than imagined.
A high-ranking official from the third rank fainted while mourning. Such a big movement naturally alarmed Qingyunmen.
The prince brought Yuan Zonggao and Lu Dian out. After listening to the doctor's words and looking at the unconscious Wang Qinghong, the prince couldn't help but be moved.
Because of his Taoist madness, he didn't have a good impression of Wang Qinghong. He always felt that this man was controlled by his wife, was too rotten, and lacked responsibility and courage.
Now seeing him in a state of grief and fainting, the prince felt that although this man could not manage the family, he still had some conscience.
Seeing Wang Qi and Dao Chi nearby, the prince ordered: "Since Wang Shenzheng is unwell, you two brothers will send him back first."
Wang Qi and Dao Chi agreed and helped Wang Qinghong down.
When they were far away from Qingyunmen, Wang Qifang whispered: "Erlang, is there anything troublesome in Room 12 recently?"
The Taoist idiot shook his head and said, "I've never heard of that."
Wang Qi suppressed her doubts and wondered if Wang Qinghong was worried that the prince would pass away and no one would take credit for building the dam, but he felt that this was not the case.
However, Dao Chi thought about Wang Sanlang and wondered if there was any news from Nanchang Mansion. But when he visited the twelfth room and saw that Wang Sanlang showed no abnormality, he felt that his guess was wrong.
The two called for the palace's carriage. After arriving at the twelfth room, they sent the palace's carriage back first and then started knocking on the door.
Wang Qi was already exhausted, so she sent Wang Qinghong to Wang Yang's hands. After explaining the doctor's diagnosis results, she took Dao Chi to Wang Sanlang's yard.
"Sanlang, my brother and Erlang have stayed up for nearly two nights. They really can't bear it anymore. Please find a place to rest." Wang Qi squinted his eyes and yawned.
As soon as he yawned, the Taoist idiot also started yawning.
Wang Sanlang saw that the two of them were green and black, so he didn't hesitate and let them go directly to his bedroom.
Wang Qi didn't take off her clothes and lay down directly. She breathed a long sigh of relief. She glanced at the hourglass on the window sill and said, "Sanlang, help me check the time and wake us up in half an hour. Don't be late."
Sorry, please help me call a carriage, prepare some convenient food, and wait until I get back to the palace..."
After the initial shock, he was left with only tiredness, his voice became softer and softer, and his snoring gradually began.
Dao Chi impatiently squeezed with Wang Qi, nodded with Wang Sanlang, lay down on the couch, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Wang Sanlang glanced at the hourglass, ordered the maids to go to the kitchen and the stable, and then left the Tongyuan
We were in the palace just now. Although a doctor had seen it, it was in a mess and there was no prescription. Young Master Wang Yang had no choice but to ask the steward to pick up the doctor.
Looking at her husband, who had a dark and thin face, Ms. Wang Yang looked worried. No matter how good the relationship between husband and wife is, the family cannot live without the pillar of support.
Wang Sanlang had already arrived at the front yard and asked the concierge who was at home this morning.
When he heard that his old servant had returned from Nanchang Mansion, Wang Sanlang's heart suddenly sank...
After taking a nap for half an hour, Wang Qi and Dao Chi were woken up by Wang Sanlang. Two plates of cabbage vegetarian cakes and a large bowl of mung bean and lotus seed porridge were prepared in front of them.
The two of them wiped their faces, and then they felt like they were alive after eating everything.
It was a major funeral event at the palace, and even if they were just lining up to mourn, it would be hard to be absent. They didn't stay any longer and took the car directly back to the palace.
As soon as he arrived at the palace, he saw Huang Jin waiting at the gate. When he saw the two of them entering the palace, he hurriedly said: "Your Highness has summoned you. Come quickly!"
Hearing this, the two men hurriedly followed.
Outside Qingyun Gate, officials were still gathering.
Huang Jin led the two of them through the crowd and entered Qingyun Gate.
The doors and windows of Qingyun Hall were all white, so Huang Jin directly led the two of them to the side hall.
In the palace, in addition to the prince, Si Bingdu was also there.
When the two came in, the prince was pacing back and forth with a heavy look on his face.
Seeing the two people coming in, the prince hurriedly asked: "How about the king's participation in politics?"
Wang Qi said: "I have asked the doctor to prescribe a prescription, but I haven't woken up yet."
The prince sighed and said: "I forgot to tell you two..." Then he said to Huang Jin: "Go and arrange for someone to send a message to Wang Shenzheng's house, just say what Gu said, please have a good life and cultivate yourself at home.
There is no need to come to the palace every day to express condolences."
Huang Jin responded and went down. The prince looked at the remaining four people and said: "My father has passed away, and the civil and military offices have to set up altars. Now that civil and military officials have gathered in the palace, I am afraid that the remaining officials will be disrespectful and cause trouble. Will you be willing to patrol for me?"
Everyone stood at Qingyun Gate for half a night and half a day, and their legs had long been straightened. When they heard that the prince had errands here, they hurriedly said in unison: "I am willing to go (His Highness orders)!"
The prince nodded, pointed to the swords and warrants on the table and said: "One sword for each person and one warrant for three people. Chen Chizhong led Lu Wenzhao and Liu Congyun to lead the fifty-yi guards to inspect the civil servants' yamen; Wang Qi led Wang Jin
, Lu Bing led the Fifty-Yi Guards to look for the city guards and other military attache offices. If there is anyone who confuses the crowd and incites trouble, he will be captured with the solitary hand order. Anyone who disobeys the solitary hand order can be killed directly!" said
Finally, it brought a bit of chill.
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed.
No matter how much they have learned in government schools, they are still teenagers after all.
The prince gritted his teeth and said, "If there is no one to retaliate, if someone takes advantage of the royal palace's funeral and causes unrest in the vassal state, I will definitely make him die without a burial place!"
Everyone agreed in unison. For this errand, the ignorant have nothing to fear.
In their view, local civil and military officials of high rank have gathered in the palace to mourn in the past few days, and those left in the yamen are all low-ranking petty officials. If there is someone who is naughty and causes trouble, take them down. As for whether to kill them or not.
Those who were killed were mostly because of the prince's angry words.
Everyone received their swords and shared the warrants written by the Crown Prince, and felt that their fatigue was reduced a lot.
The prince looked at everyone and said to Chen Chizhong and others: "You go to the Yiwei Department to order some people first. I have a few more instructions to give them."
Chen Chizhong responded and withdrew.
There was no one else in the hall. The prince looked at Wang Qi and Dao Chi and took out two more orders: "You brothers, under the pretext of patrolling the military attache's yamen on behalf of Gu, each of you will take fifty guards and go to the east gate and the west gate."
, find a way to stay there. If there is any movement outside the city, close the city gate immediately."
Dao Chi's heart moved, while Wang Qi's eyes widened and asked in confusion: "Your Highness?"
The prince said: "Prince Ning has rebelled. If the rebels go north, there will be news in the next two days... In addition to guarding against the rebels, we must also guard against local bandits taking the opportunity to cause trouble."
Wang Qi's face turned pale, and the hand holding the warrant began to tremble.
Although Dao Chi had already noticed something in his heart, he still showed shock on his face. He finally understood why Wang Qinghong was so furious. It was obviously not for the palace, but because he must have gotten news about Nanchang Palace.
After Wang Qi was frightened, she realized that the words the prince just said about beheading were not words of anger. Maybe there was nothing wrong with the civil servants' office. If someone really took the opportunity to cause trouble, the city gate would definitely not be stable.
His Royal Highness kept the secret from those three people and seemed to trust the remaining few more.
Wang Qi felt a sense of pride rising in her heart, and she puffed up her chest and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, Erlang and I will guard the city gate and live up to His Highness's trust."
Dao Chi didn't say anything to show his loyalty, but there was a bit of excitement on his face...
