0256 Move the capital
In the face of the raging plague, the people of all walks of life in "Huadu" are very interesting and different.
Some merchants' homes rush to buy white hemp, male yellow, licorice, roots, roots, mung beans, etc., set up a big pot, boil soup, smoke, and live with medicine soup at home; poor believers without money sacrifice to the plague, burn paper money, and ask the priests of the shaman cathedral to invite gods, exorcise evil spirits, beggars, and bless life. In a word, it is the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, and each teacher has its own method.
"Huadu" has been filled with vinegar and charcoal all over the city, making cigarettes swirling and vinegar fragrant.
In the strong smell of vinegar, Wen Si, dressed in a merchant's robe and a brocade robe, swaying through a courtyard, stung into the east wing, turned the secret organ, and a secret room hidden behind the big cabinet appeared in front of Wen Si.
Wen Si walked down the stairs without hesitation. This is a secret room common for large families to guard against thieves. In addition to mattresses, chairs and stools, there are also food, water and some gold coins and silver coins, which looks nothing special.
However, when a whole wall is pushed back by Wen Si's luck, the real secret is revealed. The whole wall is actually a very thick and heavy iron plate with lead. Although it is equipped with a mechanism, it is impossible to push without hundreds of pounds of strength.
The things placed here are obviously much more valuable and rich than the secret room. In addition to the dazzling array of gold jewelry shells, there are all kinds of facilities for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and even a clear water well.
Wen Si didn't look at anything in the secret room at all, but jumped straight into the well. At the moment he was about to fall into the water, he suddenly penetrated into the wall of the well and disappeared!
——There is also a top-secret mechanism on the wall of the well for people to enter and exit!
With such a unique setting, it is difficult for people to see through the real secret road. This is the new secret road leading to the royal brother Prince's Garden. Except for a few big craftsmen of the Gu family in the west building under secret construction, only Wen Si and Yushi know all the inside information.
Through the curved corridor, in the secret room, the light is bright, and the bright-eyed An Yong and several other wolf-toothed men are already waiting for Wen Si.
When Wen Si entered the secret room, the person hiding below had received a bell from the secret room above.
"What's going on in the palace and the church now?" Wen Si used to touch his nose and ask.
"Baiye Mufeng has decided to leave Beijing to avoid the plague. The three concubines, the finance minister, Prince Rui Wang Lei, the minister of government, Nalan Ruochu, the minister of the interior, Yuan Beigu, the minister of justice, Gong Ziming and other important ministers. An said in a low voice.
"They still left Tang Gong's family-" Wen Si sneered.
"According to the inside report, Song Haiyan and Miss Sun Tang Jiao, the eldest young grandmother in the 'Marshal's's Mansion, have been infected with the epidemic. Tang Gong and his wife are treating him, and the situation is not optimistic." An Yongdao.
"Tell our brothers in the 'Marshal' Mansion that the Duke of Tang has a great relationship with the Wolf King and do everything we can to make the Duke of Tang and his family survive the difficulties." After getting a clear response from his men, Wen Si asked again, "Have the brothers who went to 'Liangzhou' to find out the news come back?"
"I'm back, Fourth Master." An Yong said, "According to the signs we have received, this plague that started from 'Liangzhou' and spread to 'Huadu' is most likely not a natural disaster, but a man-made!"
"Oh?" Wen Si said in surprise, "What do you say?"
According to the brothers who came back, at the beginning of last month, the people of 'Liangzhou' found 'cool water' and floating corpses such as dead pigs and rotten dogs, and secretly peeped Huozhou infidels crossing the streets and alleys and posting spiritual charms in the doors and buildings in the early morning. If expected, this great plague will have nothing to do with the emerging White Shaman in Huozhou!" An answered confidently.
"If this is the case, there will be a lot of trouble." Wen Si touched his nose again and said, "Archbishop Huo Shan, the former governor of 'Huozhou', is the ancestor of a large group of powerful eunuchs in the inner court. His son Huo Du has an even more unclear ambiguous relationship with the Empress Dowager Xia. It seems that Huo and Xia Zhanmei are in the next big chess game-"
"But using the lives of thousands of 'flowers' innocent people as chess pieces, they are simply despicable!" Ann clenched his fist and said hatefully.
Wen Si leaned against the wall of the well and muttered, "It seems that the 'flower capital' is going to change-"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
For Antonye, who was urgently recalled by Wanshan, his life in Huadu has ended.
As soon as Andongye returned to the Prince's Beiyuan, the eunuch Zhu, the eunuch of Sili, brought the edict drafted by the four ministers of Nalan Ruo, the first and other ministers of Mufeng. In view of the increasing epidemic in the "Huadu" epidemic, he ordered his royal brother An Dongye to accompany him on a tour and gave him the position of former royal minister and 'ceremonial affairs. Gou Hua, the vice minister of the province, handled the relocation of the capital together.
This is a very vague edict. Obviously, neither the Baiye royal family nor the "postconcubine party" will ever leave their "*" at ease, and give him the false title of a former royal minister to handle his errands; but it is obvious that the real power lies with the deputy minister of ceremonial affairs who has been completed together. In Gouhua's hands, those ceremonial officials who come out of the department and want face-saving will not be given a good color to An Dongye, a ruffian leader.
Looking at the words on the oracle, he played with the seal of the imperial minister in his hand for a long time. Anton's ambition was clear that this was definitely not the original intention of the childish pope, but the meaning of a certain empress dowager.
How many civil and military officials of "Huadu" can be trusted by her? How many of the guardian eunuchs in the inner court can she trust? At this time, she is eager to go out, isn't she?
For example, Princess Gu was born in the Xilou family, and Gu Xilou, the "General of Dingxi", is a father and daughter; although Princess Yuan's mother's family is the adopted daughter of Yuan Beigu, the Minister of Internal Affairs, there is no connection with the "Police Department" and Yuan Zai of the Sixth Army? Maybe this is why the Empress Dowager Xia wants to hold Concubine Gu and Yuanfei in her hands?
In a sense, Xia Nanxuan, the third brother of the Empress Dowager, "General Jingnan", stood on the side of the Baiye royal family. After her little niece "Liangcheng Princess" Xia Yaya entered the palace, it has long been regarded as an established fact by the Holy See. Although in the ancient Shaman dynasty, the father and son were married together, and the aunt worked with her niece. It is not surprising that a husband is not uncommon, but once Yaya enters the main harem and a new generation replaces the old man, Xia Zhanmei will definitely sweep away the power. At that time, the power struggle will be estranged and close. In order to preserve his daughter's status, Xia Nanxuan will not hesitate to cut off his sister Empress Dowager Xia's head!
It is lucky and even more sad to be born in the imperial family and married into the royal family!
Since ancient times, the royal harem has competed for power, flesh and blood, the brothers have turned against each other, and the mother and son have become enmity. Xia Zhanmei knows that she must not rely on Xia Jingnan, and the only one who can be used as foreign aid is the "Godmother" who calls herself affectionately and cries her father and mother at night. Bastard! To give him a job is to give him a chance to escape back to Kanto!!!
An Dongye thought to himself that the childish ghost pope had made the Empress Dowager Xia a little fascinated by the baptism of the girl. He was more and more at the mercy of Xia Zhanmei. The whole living puppet. Is there anyone behind her remote control?
The black eunuch had the power to criticize Zhu on behalf of the Pope, and he didn't know why he was threatened by Xia Zhanmei. He bowed his head and listened like a grandson.
This trip to the "Huadu" was really like a dream. Antonye happened to be involved in a game of power competition. He couldn't help but play a dark move of a thoughtful person. Its impact was far-reaching but little known. Now he has completely sorted out his thoughts, and he was not afraid to think about it!
Maybe the really smart power skill is the kind that makes people unconsciously set up, and they have to help count money after being sold. Compared with this, most of the so-called three-step and three-step power schemes are still pediatrics!
However, the name of "Royal Minister" is exactly the meaning of a certain field. With this messenger, Andongye is ready to run away!
