The Red Mansions

Chapter 580 Emperor Chongping: The Kaifeng Mansion has been reinstated by the imperial court!

Chapter 580 Emperor Chongping: Kaifeng Mansion is back in the hands of the imperial court!

Runing Mansion, Government Office

Niu Jizong looked up at Xie Zaiyi who was sitting upright with horror on his face, and said angrily, "I...what did I do wrong?"

Xie Zaiyi looked indifferent, and said: "Niu Jizong, the letter of invitation to the imperial court that you sent to the imperial court contained false news of victory, and helped the thieves to deceive the holy majesty and the imperial court, so that the situation in the Central Plains became corrupt and hard to control. The holy majesty was very angry. Received the favor of the emperor, but did not have the slightest idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor, and worked together with the bandits. Now the sage has seized the title of the Duke of Zhenguo from you, and wiped out the three clans. Come, someone will put this beast into a prison cart, send it to the capital, and hand it over to the judge. "

He mainly wanted to be sure of Niu Jizong's identity to see if he was still alive. Since he was himself, there was nothing nonsense to say to a dead person.

Niu Jizong's face was earthy,

Having also been confirmed by Xie Zaiyi, the last trace of luck in his heart completely disappeared.

The Niu family is over!It's over!

Destroy the Three Clans!

Jia Fang snorted coldly, led a few soldiers, and dragged Niu Jizong towards the hall.

When Niu Jizong was crossed out by all the soldiers of the Beijing camp, Xie Zaiyi looked at Xiao Lin who was on the side, and said, "General Xiao, we still need to find out about the death of Guo Peng, the governor of Henan. role in case of follow-up investigation by the imperial court.”

Xiao Lin nodded and said, "I'll have someone question the bandits and the governor of Runing, Qian Yushan."

Seeing this, Xie Zaiyi said solemnly: "Then everything in the Runing Mansion will be entrusted to General Xiao."

……

……

The next day, the sky was bright, and the spring sun in early March shone in the camp. The fragrance of flowers and plants floated in the breeze, and the air was fresh and refreshing as it floated into the camp.

If it wasn't for the smoke of the offensive and defensive battle last night, it would undoubtedly be another beautiful morning in the spring season.

Lying in the bedding of the bed tent, the sleeping girl fluttered her eyelashes, turned over, and with a sound of "wow", her bright eyes opened slightly, and she lifted the bedding on her body.

Princess Xianning got up, her hair was full of lush green hair, and her beautiful face was rosy and white, which could be broken by blowing bullets.

Opening the curtain of the sleeping tent, he saw behind a strip-shaped desk not far away, the man was leaning over the desk, flipping through the books intently.

The young man's brows were firm, and the morning light hit his face. Because he lowered his head slightly, the sunlight cast a dark shadow on the nose and chin, like the back of a towering mountain, which was distinct and ancient, and set off his facial features even more. Seeing the three-dimensional, clear and majestic, Xu Shi saw something incomprehensible, the young man frowned slightly, as if thinking about it, then stretched it out, and then lifted one side.

Princess Xianning's bright eyes flashed, and she was a little dazed for a moment.

She is not a lonely and unbearable older court lady in the deep palace, but seeing such pleasing to the eye, she seems to understand what the ancient book said, Zhilan Yushu, look at killing Weijie.

No, thinking about it, even Wei Jie didn't have such appearance and demeanor.

Yuan Ting Yue Zhi, Shen Ning such as Yuan.

In fact, this kind of temperament combined with the experience of the second generation, even an ordinary appearance can give him an indescribable bearing, not to mention Jia Heng's original handsome appearance.

Well, of course it has nothing to do with evil spirits and madness, eagles watching wolves.

Princess Xianning frowned, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly remembered something.

It seems that Mr.... kissed her last night?

With this thought, Princess Xianning's heart jumped suddenly, and she felt unspeakable joy and sweetness welling up in her heart, feeling that even after one night, that joy never diminished at all.

Jia Heng felt something in his heart, staring at it, with a faint smile on his face, he said: "Your Highness is awake."

Princess Xianning was lost in thought, when she heard the words, she avoided her eyes in a panic, got up, calmed down, and said in a calm voice, "Sir, what time is it?"

"It's almost time." Jia Heng put down the book in his hand, got up, and said, looking at the slender and graceful girl.

Princess Xianning's face was cold, and she said softly, "Why didn't you call me sir?"

Jia Heng smiled and said: "Seeing His Highness sleeping soundly, I didn't call him, did Your Highness sleep well last night?

Speaking of which, the conversation between him and Xianning at this moment is not like the man and woman who just confirmed their friendship yesterday.

How should I put it, after he expressed some attitudes, Xianning also seems to have gradually recovered himself. Before, maybe he wanted too much, so that the sense of need was too strong, and instead he lost his own charm.

In fact, this is the state of most licking dogs facing the goddess.

Princess Xianning stretched out a jade hand to rub her shoulders, and said in a clear voice: "Sleeping with clothes on, I feel a little tired."

As he spoke, he stepped forward, cast Yingche's eyes on the booklet in Jia Heng's hand, and asked curiously, "What are you looking at, sir?"

Jia Heng explained: "It's the household registration and treasury information summary of Kaifeng Fucheng, which was sent over from the city just now."

Said, also put down the book, looked at Princess Xianning intently, said: "Your Highness looks much ruddy, not as haggard as yesterday."

While talking, he called Xia Houying outside and said, "Xiahou, bring a basin of water."

Xia Houying responded outside the tent, and after a while, she entered the tent through the curtain from the outside, put the copper basin and other washing things away, and said: "Your Highness, wash up."

"En." While Princess Xianning was speaking, she began to wash up, and the clear water picked up in the copper basin splashed on the girl's cheeks as clear as snow.

Princess Xianning felt that her mind was extremely clear, she reached out to take the towel from Xia Houying, wiped the water droplets on her cheeks and hands, then turned her head and asked, "Sir, how is the situation in the city?"

Jia Heng said: "An Anmin Notice has been pasted in the city of Kaifeng Prefecture. Soldiers and civilian husbands are cleaning the battlefield. We will enter the city after dinner."

After a night of fighting, all the remaining bandits in Kaifeng Prefecture were wiped out, and Ding Fu, who was originally kidnapped, was imprisoned. Afterwards, after the screening, it was only necessary to collect the corpses of the officers and bandits and clean the blood on the streets.

When he enters the city later, he will summon the surviving officials and gentry in the city, and offer condolences and comfort to the victims.

Princess Xianning asked again with concern: "Sir, can the military newspaper and Feige letter be delivered to the capital?"

"It was delivered early in the morning." Jia Heng said softly.

The news about the recovery of the Kaifeng Mansion in the Central Plains was delivered to the imperial court in two forms: Feige Chuanshu and Military News.

Not long after, Xia Houying served Princess Xianning a steaming meal on a mahogany tray.

Of course, it can't be compared with the royal chef who never tires of eating fine food and fine meat, and Princess Xianning accompanied Jia Heng on the march when she came out of Shenjing in such a state that she couldn't eat well or sleep well.

That's why Jia Heng said yesterday that traveling all the way has been a lot of hard work.

"Sir, have you had breakfast?" Princess Xianning asked.

Jia Heng said: "I read these books in the morning, but I haven't bothered to eat them yet."

Then, he came to the copper basin and washed his hands.

Princess Xianning looked at the boy who was washing his hands in the copper basin, her cheeks were slightly hot, and she hesitated to speak.

That was her face water just now, doesn't the husband even change the water?

However, it's okay to change it or not.

Jia Heng sat down, finished breakfast with Princess Xianning as usual, just removed the dishes, and was about to go out with Princess Xianning.

At this moment, Liu Jixian clasped his fists outside the military tent and said, "Commander, General Pang is back."

Jia Heng frowned and said, "Let him in."

Last night, General Pang Shili of the Yangwei Battalion led his men to chase and kill Li Yanqing and the others, but the situation is unknown.

Not long after, Jinyi's personal guards led the general of the Yangwei Battalion, Pang Shili, from the outside, but he looked listless and dejected.

Jia Heng had some guesses in his heart, and asked, "General Pang, what's going on?"

Pang Shili sighed, cupped his hands and said: "The last general is incompetent, he didn't kill Li Yanqing, please ask Marshal Jie to come down."

Jia Heng was silent for a moment, then frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

Master Pang looked ashamed and said: "The general chased Li Yanqing and others last night, and chased them all the way to the Yellow River, but he didn't want the two of them to jump into the fast-flowing Yellow River on horseback. The general sent his soldiers to search for the corpses downstream. Not found."

"Two people?" Jia Heng asked with a gloomy expression, "Besides Li Yanqing, is there another person?"

"The general later learned that Gao Yue's subordinate Li Zimin jumped into the river." Pang Shili said in a low voice, feeling ashamed.

Jia Heng's gaze was deep, and he said in a deep voice: "The body was not found, so are those two dead or alive?"

Princess Xianning frowned, and said softly: "Sir, could it be that the two of them are already dead, but their bodies sank to the bottom of the river?"

In her opinion, since Gao Yue, who caused the corruption in Henan/South, has been brought to justice, then Li Yanqing and other smaller thieves can be arrested slowly if they really have no choice.

Jia Heng shook his head and said, "It's hard to say."

After a moment of silence, he looked aggressively at Pang Shili, and said in a cold voice: "To live is to see people, and to die is to see corpses! General Pang immediately sent people to prepare boats to search down the river. Documents, if they are still alive, they must be arrested and brought to justice!"

"Yes, Jie Shuai." Pang Shili clasped his fists and said yes.

When Master Pang left sadly, Jia Heng turned to look at Liu Jixian and asked, "Liu Qianhu, is there any news about Qu Lang?"

Qu Lang led Jinyi guards to infiltrate into the Kaifeng city, and cooperated with the inside and outside to help break the Kaifeng city, reducing many casualties in the Beijing camp. After returning to Beijing, at least he will be promoted to the commander of Jinyi.

"Back to the governor, the little flag officer next to Qu Zhenfu just reported that Qu Zhenfu seems to have found the trace of the White Lotus Sect and is investigating in Kaifeng City." Liu Jixian said with a serious expression.

A cold light flashed across Jia Heng's eyes, and he murmured: "White Lotus Sect?"

The last time I heard the words White Lotus Sect, it was because of the assassination of King Zhongshun by the White Lotus Sect. At that time, he ordered the Jinyi Mansion to investigate this force. It didn't take long for this force to reappear in his sight.

Princess Xianning's bright eyes showed a hint of thought, and said in a clear voice: "Sir, the White Lotus Sect is not active in Ludi, why did it come to the Central Plains?"

"These people are only afraid that the world will not be chaotic and the Central Plains will be chaotic. They will not be willing to be lonely. They must be thinking of fanning the flames so that they can gain benefits from the flames." Jia Heng said coldly, "It seems that Gao Yue has colluded with them before. , Fortunately, Kaifeng Fucheng fell in the first battle and did not let those things respond, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

The White Lotus Sect has penetrated into Shenjing, the political center of the Han court, which shows the power and terror of this group of forces.

"Is there any movement from Qu Guang and Kang Shaowei? Have you ever captured Wang Sishun, and Shan Ming from Juyang, and Xie Zaiyi from Runing Mansion. Has there been any military report recently?" Jia Heng suppressed the matter of the White Lotus Sect, and then Ask Liu Jixian.

Although the city of Kaifeng was recovered, it did not mean that the matter was over. The people in the Central Plains were appeased with food and fodder, and the remaining forces were wiped out. The follow-up matters were intricate and complicated.

Moreover, he will also try to penetrate into the core of the Qi Party, Shandong.

Liu Jixian said: "General Qu sent people to cross the river by boat to hunt down the bandits, but there is no letter yet, and there is no news from Xie Hujun either."

Jia Heng frowned, and said: "Xie Zaiyi has been in Runing Mansion for so long, and there is still no news."

However, at this moment, a brocade-clothed guard trotted over from a camp not far away, stood up close, cupped his fists and said, "Commander, please take a look at the letter from Feige coming from the direction of Runing Mansion."

"Bring it here." Jia Heng was surprised, and quickly reached out to take the paper, read it intently, and the expression on his face gradually softened.

Princess Xianning turned her gaze to the young man in the python suit, and asked, "Sir, what happened to the Runing Mansion?"

"Runing Mansion has been recovered, Xie Zaiyi plans to lead troops to reinforce Kaifeng Mansion, and also found Niu Jizong and Qian Yushan." Jia Heng said: "Xie Zaiyi was delayed for a while because of the igniting of beacon fires in Nanyang and other places, but he did not miss it after all. It is a big matter to suppress the bandits, otherwise the bandits in the Runing Mansion will flee to Huguang when they hear the news of Kaifeng, and it will be difficult to arrest them at that time."

When Princess Xianning heard the words, she couldn't hide the joy on her face, and said softly: "Now, both Kaifeng City and Runing Mansion have been recovered."

Jia Heng nodded, and said to Liu Jixian: "Have someone pass a letter to Xie Zaiyi's flying pigeons, saying that our Jingying army has taken back Kaifeng, and let Xie Zaiyi's troops wipe out the bandits south of the Runing Mansion, so there is no need to go north to reunite."

"Yes."

The captain in Jinyi responded loudly, turned around and left.

Jia Heng took a deep breath, looked at Princess Xianning, and said, "Your Highness, let's go to the city too."

Princess Xianning quickly responded.

Therefore, Jia Heng and Princess Xianning went to Kaifeng Fucheng under the retinue of five hundred cavalrymen and Jinyi guards in the camp.

Just when I got close to Xinzheng Gate, I saw smoke and dust rising from the north, and I rode quickly, approached, got off my horse, and said: "Jie Shuai, General Qu ordered the humble officer to send news that Wang Sishun had just landed at Yanjin Ferry The scouts of the Guerrilla Office discovered that Kang Guerrilla led the crowd to defeat the bandits in one fell swoop, Wang Sishun was captured alive, and was about to be escorted to Kaifeng by ferry."

Jia Heng heard the words, and said with emotion: "General Qu did a good job, let him bring the man back, and after the leader of the bandits confirms that it is him, he will send him to the capital together with Gao Yue."

The knight obeyed, got on his horse and rode away.

Princess Xianning said happily: "Sir, Wang Sishun has also been caught."

So far, two of the five major bandits in the Central Plains Rebellion were killed and two were captured, and the Central Plains Rebellion has been completely put down.

"It's just that one Li Yanqing is missing." Jia Heng's expression was not much happy, and he said in a low voice: "Your Highness, let's go to the city."

Princess Xianning raised her eyes to look at Kaifeng Fucheng not far away. The traces left by the bloody battle of yesterday's siege of the city are still vivid in her mind, and she doesn't know how dangerous it was to seize the city yesterday.

The girl thought about it, and glanced at the young man beside her, feeling a sense of peace in her heart, she followed Jia Heng, and entered Kaifeng City under the mighty retinue of five hundred cavalrymen.

Shenjing City, palace garden, half noon

Daming Palace, side hall

Today is the period of the routine court meeting again. Under the service of Dai Quan and other eunuchs, Emperor Chongping put on a dragon robe in front of the bronze mirror.

The emperor, who has been diligent and diligent for a long time, has been sick for several days, so he can't stay in the harem.

However, Emperor Chongping followed the imperial physician's instructions and changed the morning court to the afternoon court, so that at least he could rest for a while.

"Dai Quan, has there been any news from Henan?" Emperor Chongping asked Dai Quan, who was wearing a jade belt, with a gloomy expression.

Dai Quan's movements paused slightly, and he said softly: "Your Majesty, this servant has not heard the letter yet."

In the past few days, since His Majesty didn't see Henan's military newspaper and Feige's letter, he has become extremely irritable and irritable. He can't remember how many times he was asked this question.

Emperor Chongping frowned, and asked, "Where's Jinyi Mansion? Is there no Feige letter from Ziyu?"

Dai Quan hesitated for a while, and patiently explained: "Your Majesty, at the Jinyi Mansion, the slaves have already sent people to wait. As soon as there is news, they will send it without delay."

A somewhat gloomy look appeared on Emperor Chongping's face, and his eyes were uncertain.

It's been three days, three full days.

Ever since the Sishui Pass wiped out the enemy bandits that day, there has never been a letter sent by a pigeon or a military report from Henan.

The Jingying cavalry should have arrived at Kaifeng, are they attacking the city now?

But why not send a letter to Feige?

Even when it comes to Kaifeng.

Is it because the siege is not going well?Or is it because the bandits are powerful, or because the Beijing camp suffered a defeat... Announcing the good news but not the bad news?

No, never lose a battle!

The Jingying Xiaorui came out together, first wiped out the main force of [-] bandits, and then opened and closed the city, and the battle was half done. Even if there was a stalemate, they would not be defeated.

At this moment, to put it bluntly, Jia Heng had a letter from Luoyang and a letter from Sishuiguan before. The mode of reporting at any time and making quick announcements at any time gave the emperor a certain inertia that he didn't want to admit.

Just when Emperor Chongping was extremely anxious, there were greetings from court ladies and eunuchs outside the palace, saying: "This servant has seen the Empress, the Imperial Concubine, the Eldest Princess, and the Princess Qinghe."

Because this was the first time the emperor went to court after he recovered temporarily, Empress Song and Concubine Duanrong were a little worried, so they came to see Emperor Chongping, as for Princess Jinyang and Princess Qinghe.

Because Princess Qinghe has been living with Concubine Duan Rong in the palace, the two of them are talking.

Princess Jinyang is at home alone, there is no one to talk to relieve her boredom, and she also misses her daughter a little.

Of course, this beauty will not admit that, the man is gone, and the status of the little princess has returned.

"Zitong, Concubine Rong, Jinyang, why are you here?" Emperor Chongping looked at the few people who came in step by step, with clouds and emerald buns.

The eldest princess of Jinyang wore a light red long dress with a slender waist and high girdle, graceful and gorgeous, with a soft and melodious voice, she said: "I heard from the emperor's wife that the emperor's brother is going to court in the morning today, so come and have a look. The sky looks much better, but we should rest for a few more days, the state affairs cannot be rushed."

Listening to Princess Jinyang's words, Empress Song's beautiful eyes flickered under her beautiful eyebrows, and she said softly: "Your Majesty, what sister Jinyang said is that it's almost noon, and the concubine personally cooked some Medicinal food, let someone bring it over, how about your majesty?"

Emperor Chongping nodded and said, "I was just saying that I'm a little hungry right now."

After all, it was the queen's kindness.

Empress Song looked at Emperor Chongping, frowned, and asked: "Your Majesty's face is not right, is it because you are not feeling well?"

Seeing clearly that the emperor's expression was not very good-looking, a wave of worry surged in her heart.

Concubine Duanrong and Li Chanyue also cast concerned glances upon hearing this.

Seeing that Emperor Chongping didn't say anything for a while, Empress Song persuaded: "If your majesty is not feeling well, rest a few more days, your body will be better, and you can't work too hard... The imperial physician said yesterday that your majesty needs to rest more. "

Princess Jinyang also noticed the sad look on Emperor Chongping's face, and persuaded softly: "Brother Emperor, take care of the dragon's body."

"Sickness comes like a mountain, and sickness goes like spinning silk. The ancients said that sharpening a knife does not delay work." Concubine Duanrong said softly.

Li Chanyue also persuaded: "Uncle, if you feel uncomfortable, don't hold on."

Listening to the words of the few people, Emperor Chongping shook his head and said: "It is not a long-term solution for civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty to see their saints for a long time."

After thinking about it, he realized that Empress Song had misunderstood his complexion, and explained: "Ziyu hasn't seen Feige pass the letter for a few days, so I don't know what's going on in Kaifeng Mansion."

Empress Song, Concubine Duanrong, Li Chanyue: "..."

The cooperating face is wrong, just for this?

Well, Kaifeng Mansion is now in the hands of the enemy, His Majesty needs to take care of it.

Princess Jinyang twitched her beautiful eyebrows. In fact, she had just vaguely guessed something, and it could only be the Henan/South Rebellion that could make the emperor's brows so gloomy.

Thinking of this, under Wan Wan's beautiful eyebrows, a pair of crystal clear eyes floated with worry.

He had been in Henan for a few days, and the Flying Pigeon Letter and Military News had been published a few days ago, and Yuan Chun said that he even wrote a letter to his family.

She wasn't there.

Even though it is inconvenient to deliver the letter from home, can't it be delivered in the name of Xia Houying?

Empress Song settled down, suppressed the complicated thoughts in her heart, and said softly: "Your Majesty said so, it means that I haven't seen Ziyu and Xianning's letter for two days."

"It's three days." Emperor Chongping said indifferently, but he corrected Empress Song's "slip of the tongue".

Empress Song: "..."

What do you want to think about it, if you don't see each other for a day, it's like three autumns, and the days are like years, like sitting on pins and needles?

Concubine Duanrong looked at Emperor Chongping, her cold and graceful face moved slightly, and she sighed faintly in her heart.

Her daughter was still by Jia Ziyu's side, but it was not Xianning that His Majesty was so worried about.

Of course, he was more concerned about the situation in Kaifeng Mansion.

Emperor Chongping frowned, and said in a low voice: "I calculated before, with the speed of the cavalry, I am afraid that I have arrived at the city of Kaifeng two days ago, and I should have fought with the enemy. Could it be that the siege of the city is not going well? Do you want to wait for the infantry to rush to attack the city together?"

Empress Song thought for a while, and said with relief: "Your Majesty, don't worry, maybe Jia Ziyu is still attacking the city, thinking that after the capture, he will send a good news to His Majesty."

Emperor Chongping sighed, and said: "Probably yes, the prefecture of Kaifeng is a big city with strong defenses, and the bandits hold the fortified city to resist. I am afraid that an attack and defense will last for a month or two. In other words, it will undoubtedly be another catastrophe.”

Concubine Duan Rong frowned, and said softly: "Didn't Jia Ziyu bring [-] infantry, combined, nearly [-] cavalry, it should not be impossible to break through a fortified city."

"Concubine Rong doesn't know something. Once the bandits are integrated, they will have to conscript a lot of civilians to attack the city." Emperor Chongping explained, with a cold expression on his face, and said, "I'm afraid Seeing the thieves and the officers and soldiers standing at each other for a long time, one's heart is moved."

Whether the rebellion can be quelled by means of thunder is itself a manifestation of the prestige of the center.

Civil upheaval is not terrible, what is terrible is that the court cannot control the civil unrest for a long time, which shows that the center has gradually lost control of the world.

Concubine Duanrong said softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, Jia Ziyu will always find a solution."

Li Chanyue looked at Emperor Chongping, although she didn't try to persuade him, but there was some concern in her eyes.

Princess Jinyang said softly: "Brother, if you are really worried, you can release pigeons from Jinyi Mansion to ask about the situation in Kaifeng Mansion."

Emperor Chongping heard the words, thought for a while, nodded and said: "Jinyang's words are reasonable, Dai Quan, let Jinyi Mansion handle it accordingly."

Dai Quan hurriedly said: "I will send someone to do it, slave girl."

After speaking, he went to order the inner supervisor to act.

"Your Majesty, let's use some medicinal food first." Empress Song took a soup bowl, handed it over, and said softly, "Drink it while it's hot, and take care of your body."

Emperor Chongping did not take the medicinal food, and said in a low voice, "I can't use it right now."

Empress Song sighed softly, and put the soup bowl containing medicinal food on the table.

She finally understood that without any news from Jia Ziyu, His Majesty would be restless.

Princess Jinyang was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Brother Huang is so worried, it doesn't help the matter, the most important thing is to take care of your body."

Empress Song Fuling was heartbroken, and said softly: "Your Majesty, before Zi Yu went to Henan, he also said that His Majesty still puts the dragon's body as the most important thing, and he can calmly suppress the affairs of Henan/Nan."

Li Chanyue said: "Uncle Huang, with Mr. Jia's ability, maybe the city of Kaifeng has already been broken by now, and the good news is on the way. Uncle Huang, let's use the medicinal food first."

When Emperor Chongping heard the words, he was also annoyed by Li Chanyue's innocence and childishness, and he smiled lightly and said: "It would be great if the city of Kaifeng is so easy to break, so let's borrow Xiao Chanyue's good words."

As he spoke, he looked at Empress Song with a concerned face, and said, "I ate the medicinal food first, and I need to go to Hanyuan Hall to meet the officials later."

Seeing this, Empress Song felt a little happy, and glanced at the little princess.

He thought to himself, this girl is cute, innocent and cute, she and Wei'er are a match made in heaven.

Emperor Chongping suppressed his anxiety, took a spoonful of medicinal food, and forced himself to forget about the Henan incident for the time being. As Jinyang said, worrying too much would not help, and his body could not go wrong again.

However, at this moment, under the eaves of the corridor outside the hall, an inner eunuch ran out of breath and said loudly: "Your Majesty..."

At this time, Dai Quan frowned, his face changed suddenly, and he stared at the inner eunuch tightly.

Emperor Chongping also put down the soup bowl in his hand, and stared at it. A pair of majestic eyes looked at the inner eunuch suspiciously.

"Your Majesty, urgent report from Henan." The inner supervisor calmed down and said.

Emperor Chongping was stunned when he heard the words, then suddenly stood up and asked, "Henan urgent report?"

Everyone also looked in surprise.

At this time, the eunuch held a note in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, it is the letter from Jinyi Governor Jia Heng in Jinyi Mansion."

Emperor Chongping was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly called out: "Dai Quan."

As soon as he heard that it was Jia Heng's name, or even the words "Flying Pigeon Passing Letters", Dai Quan's expression changed from dark clouds to clear, and he almost trotted all the way, grabbed the paper from the inner eunuch, trotted back, and presented it to Emperor Chongping :"His Majesty."

Empress Song took the soup bowl and wiped her hands with a handkerchief, her graceful face was full of concern.

The noble concubine Duanrong frowned slightly, her eyebrows and eyes were more or less similar to Princess Xianning's, her eyes were focused on the thin piece of paper in Emperor Chongping's hand.

There was also a look of surprise and suspicion on the gorgeous and jade face of the eldest princess of Jinyang.

Qinghe Princess Li Chanyue clenched her handkerchief tightly at some point, her heart rose to her throat, and for some reason, she suddenly had a strong premonition in her heart.

What she said just now... might be true!

Even Dai Quan looked expectantly at the paper in Emperor Chongping's hand, this eunuch Quan's old eyes were full of anticipation.

Don't get any bad news if you don't hear from me for three days.

Emperor Chongping took the paper, unfolded it quickly, read it intently, and froze in place for a moment.

"This... the city of Kaifeng?"

Everyone was attracted by the keywords of "Kaifeng Fucheng".

After reading it, Emperor Chongping read it again and again, his face flushed, and this always dignified emperor said excitedly: "Okay, okay, okay."

"Your Majesty." Empress Song slowly lowered her heart in her throat, and asked with joy, "Your Majesty, what do you say?"

"Ziyu has recovered the Kaifeng mansion, the bandit leader Gao Yue has been captured alive by Ziyu, and the bandit leaders He Guosheng and Luo Jinzhong have all been put to death!" Emperor Chongping said excitedly with a ruddy complexion, "Kaifeng mansion has returned to the imperial court!"

The records on the paper were concise and to the point, not a detailed military report, and the detailed victory report was still delivered on the road six hundred miles away, but the news from Jia Heng convinced Emperor Chongping more than anything else.

As soon as Emperor Chongping said this, a hurricane suddenly blew up in the side hall of Daming Palace, as if filled with joy.

Kaifeng Mansion has recovered!
