The day after Xu Yanran was assassinated, Xiao Xiang took the imperial physician to the Xiangdong Prince's Mansion, and did so every day thereafter.
Xiao Xiang did not deliberately hide his whereabouts. He was also accompanied by the eunuch Chao Qi, who had received orders from the old emperor.
With Xiao Xiang mobilizing so many troops, many people thought that the Princess of Xiangdong was seriously injured. However, there were also rumors that Princess Xu Yanran was actually unharmed in the assassination.
Because the palace did not take any action after the assassination, and there has been no news about the princess since then, not many people know about Xu Yanran's specific situation.
There are only two general speculations. One is that Princess Xu Yanran was injured, and the reason why the palace did not take any action is that they wanted to focus on her treatment first. The imperial doctors brought by Princess Changle are evidence of this.
After the last discussion on the decision to march the army north, the old emperor did not even think of seeking permission from the civil and military officials this time.Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the situation in Nanjing is now complicated and there are many problems that need to be solved urgently. How can we choose this time to launch a Northern Expedition?But the old emperor seemed unaware of all this. He even asked about the first step of the Northern Expedition, the issue of troop deployment.For the army to march north, soldiers, food, and supplies are all indispensable.In addition to drawing elite troops from the imperial guards around the imperial city, the vast majority of troops must be drawn from various counties and vassal kings.After sitting on the dragon throne and talking alone for a long time, the old emperor Xiao Yan suddenly looked at the Grand Marshal Yuchi Fu who was standing at the front of all
At today's morning court session, no specific rules were reached in the end, and Xiao Yan did not give a clear response to the cooperation proposed by Louwailou.The experienced Xun Jiwu could see that rather than saying that Louwailou was discussing things with the court, it would be more accurate to say that the emperor wanted to take this opportunity to reveal the truth to all the civil and military officials.Xiao Yan was also anxious, but the officials who did not understand the situation were even more anxious.Things have their priorities, and the worst thing is to do nothing.After the court was adjourned, the old emperor called Xun Jiwu , Yuchi Fu and Chen Hengdao to the imperial study.The three of them originally planned to adjourn the court and return home together, and exchange their views at the same time. However, before they even left the hall, Chao Qi came with an oral order.Chao Qi caught up with the three and said from b
Xun Jiwu and the other two stayed in the imperial study for more than two hours after the morning court was dismissed. In the end, they even forgot what kind of mood they were in when they walked out of the imperial study.The world has been in chaos for a long time, and the current situation of confrontation between the North and the South has only been formed with great difficulty. When will we be able to truly rest for the people?The originally clear sky somehow became a little darker, and dark clouds gradually came.Jiwu seemed unaware of the changes in the surrounding environment. He just lowered his head and walked forward without saying a word for a long time. The Imperial Censor Chen Hengdao and Grand Marshal Yuchi Fu were in a similar situation.Among the three ministers, only Xun Jiwu had followed the old emperor since he was still a vassal king, so he knew very well what the old emperor wanted to do.The situation is not too bad, but
After Yuan Zhenhuan left, Xiao Yan in the imperial study began to review the memorial.Blessings come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone.At this time, Changguang County in the south suddenly suffered a flood. The governor of Changguang County , Zeng Ruming, wrote more than ten memorials to the court requesting disaster relief.Xiao Yan placed the disaster relief memorials in front of him. He had read them all but had not yet marked them with a red pen.After a moment, Xiao Yan, who was a little upset, pushed the pile of memorials aside.At this time, Chao Qi, who had just returned from the imperial kitchen, happened to bring a bowl of soup in front of him."Your Majesty, please have a bowl of soup and rest for a while." Chao Qi said softly.Chao Qi, who had served the old emperor for decades, knew the old emperor's habits very well.Seeing this, Xiao Yan picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful. The sweet taste went dow
It was the first time the two of them were alone together like this since they parted ways in Zhijiang City.The past experiences are still fresh in their minds, and the two of them are no longer the same as before.Not much has changed, just the passing of time.Xiao Xiang was dressed in formal attire, and she was no longer the frail girl who was seriously injured. Looking at the shoulder that has recovered as before, it seems that the injury is no longer a problem.And Shen Kuang is still the ordinary Jianghu person as always.After the separation, Shen Kuang no longer deliberately learned about Xiao Xiang, but he did inquire about the missing people in Chaoping County.It is said that the imperial envoy Qin Lang later received instructions from the imperial court. He avoided the governor He Lianyun and Dian Dian Fang Mao , and used thunderous means to kill the forces entrenched in Chaoping County. This operation even affected several sur
After being alone for a long time, the world is slowly changing for Shen Kuang.From being young to being young, from being alone to having old friends, from caring about losing to being able to have something, it is the subtle influence of everything that has created the current situation of Shen.Although the old shopkeeper talked eloquently, his drinking capacity was very low. After drinking a small pot of strong liquor, he was already drowsy and speechless. It was just getting dark at that time.This was the first time that Shen Kuang knew that the old shopkeeper was not a good drinker, but several waiters were already used to it. Some even joked, "Don't be surprised, Young Master Jiang, that's what the shopkeeper is like. Don't look at how he usually talks about the world. "Maybe he was not completely drunk, so after the waiter finished speaking, the old shopkeeper who was already lying on the table suddenly sat up and said loudly and vaguely, "W
When the group of men in black who suddenly appeared steadied themselves and stopped moving forward, the situation that had been tense for a long time seemed to come to an abrupt end.The old man in black, Tang Cheng and the new arrivals were in a standoff.Tang Cheng was shocked to find that the old man in black kept staring at the people who walked out of the darkness, but never gave the order to attack.Bai Manyun protected Xiao Xiang behind her and took this opportunity to comfort her not to worry.The other servants who were accompanying them were now huddled in the corner of the wheel in fear, not daring to breathe.The old man in black did not take action because he could see that these men in black who suddenly appeared clearly had no good intentions.Judging from the leader’s voice, he seemed to be young, probably in his early thirties.After he finished speaking, he immediately looked at the old man in black on the roof and
After determining the specific location of the noise, Shen Kuang did not step forward rashly . He concealed his aura and gradually approached. Finally, he stopped beside the eaves of a high wall, where the shadow could just cover his figure.Through sensing Shen Kuang, he realized that there were not many people left here, and those who were masters at the master level seemed to have left.There was a lingering faint smell of blood in the air, and everything seemed to indicate that it had just ended.Shen Kuang was not clear about the entire plan of the Nanliang court, so he did not recognize those people under the eaves as Jin Yilang.The light was dim, and Shen Kuang could not identify the dead person for a while. As a result, the pursuit of clues was interrupted, and Shen Kuang was at a loss, not knowing where to go next.What those people under the eaves were doing at the moment were finishing work, cleaning up the bodies and wiping away the
