The rebels in the palace were frightened by Princess Bihua's fierce appearance. Now the rebels are besieged in the empty field between the Meridian Gate and Kangding Gate. There is no water or food in this place, and even if you want to hold on, you can't last long.

The rebels saw Yuan Zijun hanging up from the city gate again. In addition, Ma Dong was dead, and both leaders were finished. Outside the door, a cannon was set up from the divine fire. They had no intention of making trouble. They threw the big swords in their hands on the ground one after another, and the rest of them were disarmed when they saw it.

In the end, Princess Bihua and her team confiscated the remaining rebels without any blood. She ordered people to escort these people to the Heaven Prison for care first, and then deal with them by themselves when the emperor comes back.

At this time, the camp outside the city had already sent people to the vicinity of the imperial tomb. With Wen Tingzhou and Zhang Fang leading the way, the commander immediately ordered 100,000 soldiers to divide into two groups, 80,000 to rescue the imperial tomb. The remaining 20,000 were taken to Wen Tingzhou to support Princess Bihua in the capital, and another 10,000 were led by Zhang Fang. When they were about to fight, they went around to protect the emperor and the royal family members and ministers in the imperial tomb. After the general who led the troops had arranged the arrangement, Wen Tingzhou took 20,000 people to take the detour into the imperial tomb.

The leading general was surnamed Han, and he was very insightful in making arrangements like this. The spies had already reported that there were not many rebels in the capital. In addition, General Han also knew about Princess Bihua, and ten thousand people were enough to support the capital.

Jingji Daying and Bihua'an are both northwest of the capital, so Wen Tingzhou also led his army to the north gate. The guards guarding the city first reported to Princess Bihua. Although she had just seen Wen Tingzhou, she still checked Wen Tingzhou's general fu and Jingji Daying's transfer order according to the rules, so that they could enter the city.

With these men, Princess Bihua, Wen Tingzhou and others quickly wiped out all the rebels at the other three city gates.

Because the emperor and all the princes were not here, the Empress Dowager handed over the defense of the capital to Princess Bihua: "I will not bother the second master in one matter. Since my sister is here, I will take more trouble. I don't understand these things about condemning soldiers and generals. The security of the capital and the palace will be handed over to you, my sister."

Even the empress dowager, who has always been self-preserving and noble, dared not call herself "I" in front of Princess Bihua, which shows how powerful Princess Bihua is.

Moreover, Princess Bihua is only in her teens and is only four or five years older than the current emperor.

There is no way, Princess Bihua is the old daughter of the late emperor and the only daughter of the late emperor who has survived to this day. Naturally, she respectfully called the eldest princess.

The emperor today is the youngest son of the prince, the youngest son of the empress dowager. Princess Bihua and the current emperor are not a few years apart from birth. Although the age difference is not very different, Princess Bihua is one generation higher than the emperor.

Moreover, Princess Bihua was also a fierce and fierce female general when she was young. When she was young, she and her husband were guarding the border for many years. Her reputation was even scared of the barbarians outside the pass.

After hearing the Queen Mother's words, Princess Bihua was not vague and responded directly.

At this time, the palace servants came to report that Wen Tingzhou, the general of the Daying camp in the capital, asked for a visit.

Princess Bihua ordered people to summon him and said to the empress dowager: "I think this Wen Tingzhou looks really good. He is a rare Confucian general. This Wen Shen General is the one who captured the nomadic prince alive? Not to mention how powerful he and Duke Cheng Guo were, even the sixth daughter-in-law was a straightforward and neat wife. She was not vague when she started. The children from the general's family, even the daughter, were both civil and military! And our family Chu Zhi didn't know that she was pregnant and fought everywhere. Fortunately, there was nothing big, otherwise it would be a pity."

The Empress Dowager also nodded and said, "The sixth daughter-in-law is a good wife, brave and resourceful, and can stand up at the critical moment. Among these granddaughters, except Princess Zhao, she is the most outstanding. Unfortunately, the eldest daughter-in-law is still smart on weekdays, and this problem is not enough."

Princess Bihua replied: "Now the Chinese ministers in the court are all scholars who are powerless and hope that they will teach their neat daughters? It's okay if they are just a princess in the county."

Princess Bihua said this, and it was a slap in the face. Fortunately, these princesses are not here now.

After a while, Wen Tingzhou came in. After saluting and greetings, he had not waited for the empress dowager to praise him, and he replied in a hurry: "Now that His Majesty and his party were besieged in the imperial tomb by the rebels. Commander Han has led an army of 80,000 to rescue him. General Zhang Fang and the Governor also took more than 10,000 people to sneak into the imperial tomb. I don't know what the situation is now. I also ask the Empress Dowager and the eldest princess to make some plans as soon as possible."

When the empress dowager heard this, she couldn't sit still. The emperor was her own son, and she was not the king of a country. When the mother heard that her son was in trouble, she would not be in a hurry.

Even Princess Bihua was a little shocked when she learned the news. She didn't expect that the rebels would even surround the imperial tomb. The emperor is the king of a country, and if she is not careful, it will shake the country's foundation. Moreover, all the adult males in the royal family went to the imperial tomb. If someone accidentally kicked her, she would have no shame to go underground to see her father and mother.

Fortunately, the empress dowager finally experienced the storm and calmed down in a short while. She said calmly: "Now the city defense army and the imperial guards can't count on it anymore. People come and quickly pass on the imperial decree from the Ai family, draw garrisons from Yuping and Da Yong, and quickly rush to the imperial tomb to rescue His Majesty."

Then he looked at Wen Tingzhou and said, "General Wen Shen, the Ai family ordered you to close all the four major gates in the capital first, and then send soldiers to patrol and deploy controls within the capital to avoid rebellion from rebellion." Wen Tingzhou took the order and left.

Then Princess Bihua said: "Since General Wen Shen is the leader in the defense of the capital, I will take people to the imperial tomb. I want to see how capable the King of Pingjiang is, and he dares to rebel."

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager felt relieved and was very convinced of the ability of the Empress Dowager Bihua.

...

At this time, the emperor and his group were really embarrassed. The rebels saw that the gate of the imperial tomb could not be captured for a long time, and this gate was made of like the gate of the capital. It was inseparable from swords and guns and was invasive.

Seeing this, King Pingjiang was not vague and ordered people to shoot many fire-carrying arrows from the occupied guardhouses into the imperial tomb.

Because we are going to sacrifice to the sky today, there are many banners and sacrificial supplies in the imperial tomb. These things quickly catch up when they encounter fire. In addition, the dry things in the winter are dry, and the fire spreads rapidly.

Is there enough water in the imperial tomb to put out the fire? Seeing that the fire had burned the wings in the east. The beams were made of wood, and tung oil was lit on the rockets. If the east wing was not far from the hall, they would have been here long ago. The rebels were still shooting rockets here. It was the time when the west wind was raging. Although many of the rebels' arrows could not be shot into the imperial tomb, they all fell into the pine forests around the imperial tomb. In winter, the weather was dry, and soon the fire formed a climate. The inside and outside of the imperial tomb suddenly burst into flames and smoke rose everywhere.

Seeing the increasing fires around, the emperor couldn't help but frown: Could it be that God is going to kill me?

When everyone was at a loss, the emperor suddenly felt a little cold on his face. He stretched out his hand to wipe it, and another drop of cold liquid dripped on the back of his hand. Could it be that it was snowing? While he was confused, someone from his ministers exclaimed: "Look, it's snowing!" Everyone looked up and saw that there were indeed scattered snowflakes floating in the sky, which instantly turned into heavy snow like goose feathers, mixed with some hail the size of a longan.

The emperor swore that he had never liked hail as much as he is today. Even if a hail was very blind and hit his shoulder directly, he felt full of joy.

Although the heavy snow and hail were not extinguished quickly, it also prevented the fire from spreading. The rebels could no longer release arrows because the heavy snow blocked their sight. Even if they were released, they would be covered by heavy snow. The fire in the square and the east wing gradually weakened, and everyone was happy. King Zhao said to the emperor: "The father's blessings and deep luck will definitely turn bad luck into good luck."

As soon as these words were spoken, the other clan ministers also agreed. The ministers with a wink quickly took the lead and shouted: "Long live Your Majesty! God bless me Dayuan!" Then, all the soldiers and generals also shouted.

The loud voices gathered into the mountains and tsunamis and spread to the imperial tombs, trembling the rebels' hearts.

Even the emperor himself looked at the heavy snow all over the sky and breathed a sigh of relief, saying loudly: "It seems that the heavens do not destroy me, it must be the spirits of the ancestors and clans who are in heaven to protect me. Since the destiny of heaven is on my side, what else can I be afraid of?"

The emperor's ministers were all happy, but King Pingjiang's face was not so beautiful. He was about to trap the dog emperor and his party in it, and then he would get what he wanted. But the thief God was against him, and it started to snow and hail at this time.

The emperor hid in the hall without fear of ice and snow. But his army was exposed to the wilderness, and hail falling from the sky hit the soldiers' armor. Everyone felt dizzy for a moment, their ears were so shocked that they took off their helmets, and their heads, faces and necks that were exposed to the outside were instantly wet by ice and snow. It was really painful.

People were still very superstitious at this time. When King Pingjiang wanted to burn the emperor to death, God happened to have heavy snow and hail at this time, which stopped the fire from spreading.

In other words, isn’t God helping the emperor?! The emperor is the destiny of heaven. Thinking of this, the officials who were abused by hail and participated in the rebellion, the soldiers couldn’t help but feel regretful. They shouldn’t have listened to the foolings of the King of Pingjiang at the beginning. But now it has become a tyranny, and it is too late to regret it.

The heavy snow blocked people's sight. King Pingjiang did not see his subordinates' faces as varied as palettes. He pondered in his heart: I don't know if Ma Dong and Zijun succeeded, why haven't they moved for so long? As long as he controls the palace and pulls the cannons of the Divine Fire Camp, what kind of gate can't be broken?

At this time, a sentry suddenly came from behind and replied: "Your Majesty, a team of people came from the direction of the capital."

King Pingjiang was overjoyed and said to his eldest son Ling Zijue: "It must be Ma Dong and Zijun who came with reinforcements." Then he picked up the telescope handed over by his subordinates and looked up.

The hail stopped after only a cup of tea, but the snowflakes were still raging in the sky. King Pingjiang looked for a long time before he could see the distant troops clearly, but this glance made him shocked, because the other party was obviously the commanding flag of the Jingji camp, and his clothes did not look like his own army.

It shouldn't be that there are less than 30,000 people left in the capital, and half of them are their own people. In addition, the other 20,000 people allocated to their sons, as long as they firmly occupy the city gate and capture the Empress Dowager and other women's relatives again, they will be invincible. What happened?

The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. King Pingjiang no longer hesitated and said to Yuan Zijue: "Your brother and the others are afraid that there will be little danger. The other party has a large number of people, we are not opponents. Let's retreat to Qingkou Pass first."

And at this moment, the 10,000 troops led by Zhang Fang had already sneaked into the imperial tomb from another mountain. When the emperor saw the reinforcements, he was very happy. When he heard Zhang Fang's reply, he was even more happy.

The King of Pingjiang outside the imperial tomb knew that his own people could not defeat the people in the capital camp. So he took advantage of the fact that the imperial army was still a little far from here and led the rebels to quickly gather the troops and fled in shame with his subordinates.

The guards in the imperial tomb were still wondering why the rebels suddenly stopped attacking? They had already retreated when they looked again. Could it be that reinforcements from the court outside came?

The soldiers guarding the gate quickly climbed onto the high wall of the imperial tomb and looked around. Sure enough, they saw the commander-in-chief flag of the capital camp. The soldiers hurried inside and reported to the emperor, and the king and his ministers finally calmed down.

When the emperor heard that the rebels retreated to the Qingkou Pass area, he said, "Don't be busy chasing them, let them jump around for a few days." He asked about the situation in the capital again. After hearing that Wen Tingzhou had already brought people to the capital, the emperor nodded: "I am really worried about the safety of my mother's queen, so let's go back to Beijing now."

The ministers also agreed, not knowing what was going on in the capital. Who has no family and no one has a younger family? They have to go back and take a look to feel at ease.

Of course, the emperor did not forget to block an arrow for him and was still unconscious in the back hall. He did not bring other sons or ministers, but only a few eunuchs and Duke Cheng Guo Shan Xiong. After all, Duke Cheng Guo is Lao Liu's father-in-law.

When the group entered the wing room where King Jin was, two imperial doctors were waiting aside. Seeing the emperor coming, they quickly stood up to greet him. The emperor waved his hand and asked, "Is Lao Liu's injury very serious? Why haven't he woke up until now?"

The two imperial physicians looked at each other. One of the older imperial physicians, Feng, looked at King Jin who was lying on the couch, and bowed and said, "Your Highness Jin's injuries are not very serious, but the arrow is highly poisonous. Although I have been treating them with all my heart, Prince Jin's body is still a little delayed due to insufficient medicinal materials. I am afraid that there will be some disease in the future."

"What kind of disease is the root cause?" the emperor asked.

Doctor Feng made up his mind and thought that he would let them know sooner or later, so he simply said: "I'm afraid that it will be a little hindered from the future."

Seeing the emperor's face unpredictable, he forced himself to blurt out the sentence that came from behind: Even if he had children, he would easily become weak and died in the future.

The emperor was a little unhappy, but he thought that Lao Liu had a pair of legitimate sons, so he felt a little better. He ordered: "You don't need to tell others about this. Even His Highness King Jin, please hide it for the time being." Doctor Feng quickly responded.

Then an eunuch came to report that the carriage, horses, carriages and other things were ready, so please give the emperor's advice.

The emperor also wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible. Only by sitting on the imperial throne in the Golden Palace would he feel safe, so he ordered to set off immediately. At the same time, he would let King Jin be placed in good condition and take care of the imperial doctor after returning to the capital.

Not to mention how the emperor arranged the chariots and horses to dispatch personnel, how to drive, etc.

It was just said that it was in Duke Cheng's mansion, and Xu was nervous with Mu Yun and a few maids.

Now there are riots everywhere in the city. Although Mu Yun remembers his family, he also knows that it is much safer to stay in Duke Cheng's Mansion now, and Xu will not let her go back at this time, so she stays here. Fortunately, the little monkey is also here, and apart from worrying about Wen Tingzhou, there is nothing particularly worrying at home.

Xu brought everyone to the ancestral hall in the mansion, saying that they would burn incense and pray to the ancestors and the ancestors and the ancestors and the ancestors and the ancestors and the ancestors and the ancestors and the ancestors and the ancestors could bless them. In fact, it was because there was a secret passage underground in the ancestral hall that could lead directly to a secret house outside. If the rebels really attacked, they would at least have a try.

As for the third and fourth rooms and the Xu family in Renshouyuan, they were too lazy to care about it. If they were willing to hide there, they would follow them.

Just as everyone was kneeling down with integrity, Yuan Chuzhi, who was unconscious, was sent over.

When Xu saw Yuan Chuzhi like this, he was very panicked for a while, worried that his daughter would not encounter any accidents. Although the female general said that Shan Jingyan was not seriously injured and told her about Yuan Chuzhi's situation. However, Xu was still worried, but she calmed down and asked the doctor in the mansion to come over to diagnose Yuan Chuzhi's pulse. Fortunately, what the doctor said after the pulse was not much different from the female general, so Xu felt relieved.

After all, Yuan Chuzhi was also the one she saw when she was a child, so she naturally didn't want something to happen to her.

Perhaps because of the fact that he was running too hard today, Yuan Chuzhi slept for a long time before he woke up slowly. Seeing that she woke up, Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Chuzhi, you have woken up."

Yuan Chuzhi struggled to get up, and Xu personally helped her up, and then took a big pillow to her and leaned behind her: "You don't know that when you were unconscious and were sent over to me, but you were worried about me to death. You really didn't know that you were pregnant, and you still couldn't stop. Fortunately, this child is a slander, otherwise you would regret it."

Yuan Chuzhi said in surprise: "Auntie, you said I am pregnant again? Is that true?"

Yuan Chuzhi's newlyweds are only two months away. She never thought she would have a child so soon. Although this child came a bit abnormal, now that she is pregnant, she naturally has to be happy.

"Auntie, what's going on outside?" Yuan Chuzhi thought about what happened before he fell into a coma and didn't have time to rejoice in his pregnancy. Instead, he asked about the situation outside anxiously.

Mu Yun sat beside the bed, patted her and comforted her: "Madam, I have asked someone to go inquire about the news, don't worry, the situation is not too bad now."
