Chapter 453: Captive

Zhou Jing ascended the throne on the fourth day after Emperor Taichang died. Special period, special treatment. Zhou Jing's enthronement ceremony was kept simple.

When Zhou Jing became the emperor, the first imperial decree was to confer Yan Wushuang as Prince Rui; the second imperial decree was to appoint Yan Wushuang as the head and assistant.

Master Lu Er was a little surprised when he heard the news: "I thought Yan Wushuang would be the regent, but I didn't expect it to be the chief assistant. I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Yan Wushuang's gourd?" The Regent is a long way off.

Mr. Lu frowned and said, "It is impossible for Yan Wushuang to condescend to the position of a prime minister. He did this for another purpose!"

Master Lu Er said: "Yan Wushuang has killed a lot of people in the past two days. Although he said that they were all involved in the Tongcheng Incident, many of them are obviously innocent. Yan Wushuang is using the Tongcheng Incident to eradicate dissidents." In the past two days, Yan Wushuang has killed more than a dozen people and hundreds of people. It made everyone in the capital panic.

Mr. Lu said: "Isn't this normal?" No matter who is in power, the first thing to do is to eradicate dissidents.

Master Lu Er said: "Father, although Yan Wushuang is very resourceful and resourceful, but he acts extreme." Yan Wushuang has no bottom line in his actions, and it is very insecure to work under such a subordinate.

Mr. Lu said: "Let it be! Other things, you shouldn't worry about it. Just now they are in Sichuan, and our family will be fine."

Master Lu Er didn't say anything more.

Back in the backyard, Mrs. Lu Er quietly said to Master Lu Er: "Xiuer has a letter." After speaking, she escaped the letter from her sleeve and handed it to Master Lu Er.

It is also now that the imperial court canonized Yunqing as king, and Yunqing is no longer a traitor. So Northwest began to communicate with surrounding states and counties. Of course, the interrogation was still very strict.

Master Lu Er hurriedly accepted the letter, and after opening it, he glanced at ten lines. After reading it, Master Lu Er heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It's good to arrive in Yucheng safely." In fact, Master Lu Er sent his grandson Lu Han to the northwest to take a big risk. After all, Lu Han is Lu Gang's son, and Lu Gang and Yun Qing are enemies. In case the two armies confront each other and Yunqing captures Lu Han to threaten Lu Gang, Lu Gang will be at a disadvantage.

Mrs. Lu Er said: "I now understand why Han Jianming took his family to the northwest." On that day, Han Jianming abandoned his family business, gave up the title of Lord Duke, and took his family to the northwest to join Yuxi. Outsiders can't understand it. But looking at the current situation in the capital, Mrs. Lu felt that Han Jianming was too prescient. People are dying everywhere in the capital now, one was fine yesterday, but today the whole family was wiped out. It makes people worry all day long, fearing that the butcher knife will fall on their heads in a blink of an eye.

Thinking of the situation in the Northwest that Lu Xiu had mentioned in his letter, Master Lu Er fell silent in a rare way. There is a lot of waste to be done in the Northwest, and it is not known when the chaos in the capital will end. Speaking of which, he also admired Han Jianming. Can give up the title of family business and take the family to the northwest to start again. Not everyone has such courage.

Mrs. Lu Er gently pushed Master Lu Er, and said: "Go and write to Gang'er, and tell him not to conflict with Yunqing and the others for Han'er's sake. The court's order is acceptable on the face of it. Don't take it too seriously." Mrs. Lu Er also said these words for her grandson. Now Yunqing and Han Yuxi didn't care much about Lu Han, but if Lu Gang offended the two of them too hard, there would be no guarantee.

Master Lu Er shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that Yan Wushuang will transfer Gang'er back to Beijing and send his confidants to Shu."

Mrs. Lu said: "That Yan Wushuang kills people without blinking an eye. If he transfers Gang'er back, he must have no good intentions."

Master Lu Er said: "If Yan Wushuang issued a transfer order,

Ganger will definitely come back. "The whole family of Lu's family is in the capital, and it is impossible for Lu Gang not to come back after receiving the transfer order.

Mrs. Lu Er said: "Write a letter to Gang'er, and don't go back to the capital no matter what." When you return to the capital, many things will be beyond your control.

Yan Wushuang issued a reward order, as long as you help catch Yuchen and Zhou Yan, you can get a thousand taels of gold and two promotions. If there is no official, he can be awarded a seventh-rank official. Those who provide important clues will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver. Under such circumstances, Yuchen's situation is very difficult. However, because the hiding place was adequately prepared for food and clothing, a few days passed safely. But this man was unlucky, his teeth could get stuck in water.

I hid well at first, but a thief came in the middle of the night. Although it was discovered in time, the thief was familiar with the terrain and escaped.

After the thief escaped, he immediately went to the government to inform him. It was also because he didn't know the identities of Yuchen and his party, otherwise he should have gone to Yan Wang's mansion to inform them.

Yuchen was caught in the process of transferring with the guards. Yuchen was disguised, but the people around her were not, and their identities were soon revealed.

King Yan did everything possible to find the queen, and the queen was a great beauty. Many people thought that Yan Wushuang might have taken a fancy to the queen's beauty, and that's why they made so much effort to find her. Therefore, as soon as the governor of the capital confirmed Yuchen's identity, he immediately sent him to Yanwang's mansion.

Yuchen disguised herself. Wearing gray clothes, his complexion was a little yellow, and there was fear in his eyes. No matter who looked at this appearance, she would not believe that she was the queen who was known as the most beautiful woman in the world.

The first thing Yuchen was sent to Yanwang Mansion was to take a bath and change clothes. It's not that Yuchen never thought of resisting, but how could she resist two female guards who are tall and rough.

Tang Bo and Meng Nian were waiting in the main hall. Soon, the two heard ** Ling's footsteps. Yuchen was half supported and half escorted into the main hall by two guards.

Yuchen was wearing a hollow lavender light silk mandarin duck brocade crescent dress, with jet-black hair hanging behind her. The delicate face, the skin as smooth and smooth as suet jade, and the willow waist that can be grasped gracefully, there is nothing that is not perfect.

Looking at Yuchen like this, four words came to Tang Bo's mind: "A beauty is a disaster."

Meng Nian couldn't help but think of a poem: "There are beauties in the north, who are peerless and beautiful. Once you look at the city of people, and then you look at the country." In fact, Meng Nian had seen Yuchen before, but only at a banquet from a distance I glanced at it, but couldn't see it very clearly.

Tang Bo asked blankly: "Queen Han, where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" The child beside Yuchen was not the Crown Prince, and this has been confirmed.

Yuchen glanced at Tang Bo coldly, his eyes were full of hatred. It was these people who killed her husband and caused her to fall into this situation.

Seeing the hatred in Yuchen's eyes, Tang Bo became murderous towards Yuchen. How many winds and rains the prince has experienced, must not be ruined by a woman.

Meng Nian looked at the murderous Tang Bo, and said to the two female guards, "Miss Han is tired, you can help her to rest!"

Hearing Meng Nian's address to Yuchen, Tang Bo's face turned ashen. Han Yuchen is a queen, a married man who has given birth to a child. Calling Han Yuchen Miss Han now has to make him think too much.

Yuchen was also terrified, but his complexion was still icy, making it impossible to see anything.

There were only two people left in the main hall, Tang Bo said coldly, "Meng Nian, what did you mean when you called Empress Han Miss Han just now?"

Meng Nian said: "Uncle Tang, you should know the prince's temperament. He made such great efforts to find Han Yuchen, obviously Han Yuchen became interested." Obviously, his master has taken a fancy to Han Yuchen.

They are all men, and Meng Nian can understand. Any man would be tempted by such a stunning beauty who overwhelms the country and the city. The prince is a normal man, it's normal to fall in love with such a beauty.

Tang Bo's face changed when he heard this, and he said: "You knew that the prince was interested in the Han family, why didn't you tell me?" The previous Tang Bo really didn't think much about it. The main reason is that Yan Wushuang is not very feminine, and Yan Wushuang has also met Han Shi before, and she didn't have any strange reaction.

Meng Nian said: "Uncle Tang, so what if I tell you, can you still stop the prince?" No one can stop what the prince of his family is going to do. Those who can stop them are no longer in this world.

Tang Bo was so angry that he said, "Do you know? You will kill the prince if you do this. This Han family is a disaster." The prince is Han Yuchen's enemy who killed his husband. Wouldn't it be nice to put such a woman by his side? Life will be in danger at any time.

The corner of Meng Nian's mouth raised, and he said, "Uncle Tang, you have underestimated the lord." With the ability of his lord, as long as he wants to, he can still deal with a woman.

Tang Bo shook his head and said, "No, I can't let this woman stay any longer." He didn't dare to bet on the so-called hero's sad beauty.

Meng Nian said: "Uncle Tang, you know the nature of the master. If you touch Miss Han without his consent, the relationship between you and the master for so many years will be exhausted."

Tang Bo was not afraid, and said: "I am doing this for the sake of the prince." Tang Bo was determined to put Yuchen to death after eating the weight, even if he was rejected by Yan Wushuang.

Meng Nian said: "Uncle Tang, I won't let you hurt Miss Han without the prince's consent." If the prince wanted to kill the Han family, even if he felt it was a pity, he would not frown. Now, he definitely can't make Tang Bo his wish.

When Yan Wushuang heard that Yuchen was arrested in the palace, his expression remained motionless. After a while, he found a reason to go back to the palace.

King Yan's Mansion was formerly Prince Kang's Mansion, and the garden of King Kang's Mansion was the best in the capital, even King Jing's Mansion couldn't compare.

Tang Bo felt a little relieved when he saw Yan Wushuang who looked normal, the situation was not as serious as he thought. Tang Bo said: "My lord, the queen is real, but the crown prince Zhou Yan is a fake. What we caught was just a double." The child Yuchen brought didn't look like Zhou Yan. So it's very easy to tell.

Yan Wushuang knew the reason as soon as he heard it: "Mr. Han probably brought that double by his side to divert our attention." It was really hidden, and his people didn't even find it for so many days. But Yan Wushuang is not in a hurry, as long as he doesn't leave the capital, he will definitely be able to find it.

Tang Bo weighed it in his heart and said: "My lord, the Han family is Emperor Taichang's queen, this woman cannot stay. If you stay, you will be in danger, my lord."

Yan Wushuang glanced at Tang Bo, smiled lightly and said, "Tang Bo, what danger can a woman with no strength to restrain a chicken bring me?" Seeing that Tang Bo was about to speak, Yan Wushuang shook his head and said, "I mean It's decided, you don't have to." After speaking, he walked towards the house.

The worry in Tang Bo's eyes grew stronger. (to be continued)
