Quick Wear: The female supporting role makes a comeback by giving birth to a child

After the group of people warmed up for a while, He Dating said goodbye.

Xin Guoguo and a few others also rolled up their sleeves and started cleaning the house.

They didn't clean all of them, just the few rooms we were staying in that night.

The next day I asked for help and cleaned other places.

Put away all the additions.

The fire was officially started in the evening.

On the third day after moving into the courtyard, Jiang Nan Ge and Lao Xue went to the Protectorate again.

Knowing that they had moved to the back door of the Protectorate Mansion, Han Yi had specially asked the servants in the mansion to help with the cleaning yesterday.

The two of them didn't care about the front door or the back door.

Besides, the back door was closer, so he just knocked on it.

The gatekeeper at the back door also knew that the yard at the entrance of the alley had a new owner, and the owner was someone General Han valued.

He had already recognized the face.

Seeing the two people coming, he hurriedly invited them in and asked them to go to the gatehouse to warm themselves by the fire, while he hurried to the second gate to report.

Not long after the doorman came back, a servant came running over to tell him:

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Xue, the general invites you two to the flower hall for a chat."

The two men said goodbye to the doorman and followed the servant to the flower hall.

Han Yi is drinking tea.

Seeing the two of them, Han Yi put down his teacup, stood up and greeted them:

"Now that you are here, please sit down. I was thinking that if you didn't come again, I would live in your house myself."

Jiangnan Ge and Lao Xue both laughed:

"The general was joking."

Han Yi laughed:

"You came at the right time today. I have something here and I want your help."

Jiang Nange and Lao Xue looked at each other and bowed together: "At your command, General!"

Han Yi looked at the two of them:

"I will return to Beijing after the New Year, which may take at least one month or at most two months. General Zeng has been assigned to Xiaoliu Village in the suburbs of Mobei Prefecture. These days, I need you to help me take care of them secretly. Of course, the most important thing is to protect General Zeng's safety. What do you think?"

If there were really no unfamiliar faces among his men, he would not have troubled these two.

After all, the two parties had just met and could not really be said to know each other well.

Jiangnan Ge and Lao Xue immediately agreed:

"Don't worry, General! We'll be leaving in a moment."

Han Yi's eyes were filled with relief:

"Then I'll leave this matter to you two. If there are any problems that cannot be solved, you can come to the Protectorate to find Daniu, and he will send a letter to the capital to inform me. I have already handled the household registration of Xiaoliu Village for you two, and then you two will temporarily live in Xiaoliu Village as refugees."

Jiang Nange nodded: "Okay."

Old Xue also nodded:

"Don't worry, General. Brother Jiang and I will protect General Zeng. But I don't know what's the important matter that the general suddenly wants to go to the capital?"

They didn't hear anything about what happened in the capital along the way.

Han Yi picked up the teacup and took a sip.

After a long while, he sighed softly, "The emperor is critically ill, and we need to go to the capital to see him."

"How could it be?! Wasn't it fine a while ago?"

Emperor Zhaowen was a wise ruler who worked hard to govern the country.

Whether in the hearts of officials or the people, he is truly a good emperor.

It's just that he worked too hard, and his body couldn't take it anymore.

Now, although he is only forty-three years old, he is often ill and not as energetic as before.

Emperor Zhaowen now has three adult princes and two underage princes.

The factions of these five princes and their mother's families have been fighting each other to the death in recent years, and the entire court is in chaos.

If it weren't for Emperor Zhaowen's support, I'm afraid these people would have already lost their temper and would have recklessly abandoned everything.

Old Xue also remembered the good things about this emperor.

Han Yi shook his head helplessly: "The specific situation can only be known after returning to Beijing."

He actually suspected that some prince was too impatient and drugged the emperor.

But I'm not sure.

So, I had to return to Beijing as soon as possible.

At least he has soldiers.

If someone can't help but force the emperor to abdicate, he can still do his best to protect His Majesty.

Lao Xue and Jiang Nan Ge were a little worried: "General, go! We will protect General Zeng. As long as we are here, General Zeng will be here!"

Han Yi was moved and stood up and bowed deeply: "Han Yi is here, thank you two warriors for your help!"

The two of them also hurriedly returned the greeting: "General, you are too polite."

Han Yi had the household registration books given to the two men, and asked them to change their clothes. He gave each of them one hundred taels of silver and sent them out the door.

Jiang Nan Ge went home and said goodbye to Xin Guoguo, then went towards Xiaoliu Village with Lao Xue.

*

Beijing.

In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Zhaowen was lying on the dragon couch, his eyes tiredly open, looking at his sons and women who were guarding his bedside.

"Your Majesty, you must get better!"

Concubine Liu wiped her tears with a handkerchief, her affectionate eyes full of worry.

"Yes, Father, you must get better! I am an unfilial son and cannot share your worries. Da Zhao cannot live without you!"

The eldest prince also had a sad look on his face.

"Don't worry, my royal brother. Father will get better."

The third prince spoke in a firm tone.

Emperor Zhaowen shook his head slightly.

Looking at these sons, he just felt powerless.

The struggle for the throne has existed since ancient times.

Even if it is just one acre and three mu of land in a common people's home, brothers will fight over it.

What's more, it's the royal family?

But looking at the hypocritical looks on his sons' faces, Emperor Zhaowen closed his eyes tiredly.

He knew very well that his health was getting worse and worse and he might not have much time left.

But he was really worried about handing over the country to these sons.

"Alright, all of you retreat. I know my body well. You can do whatever you need to do. I won't die anytime soon."

The princes looked at each other and knelt down one after another:

"Father, please don't say such things! You will live a long life!"

"Yes, Father, you will get better."

Several concubines were also crying, kneeling on the ground, speaking in a delicate voice.

Emperor Zhaowen just felt a headache from the noise.

He simply closed his eyes and waved his hand.

Seeing this, although the few people still wanted to express their concern, they were afraid of angering the emperor, so they could only leave obediently.

Walking out of the Qianqing Palace, the group of people looked at each other, their eyes full of vigilance.

But they all had smiles on their faces and were greeting each other, as if they had a very good relationship.

After this group of people left, the only person left in the entire Qianqing Palace besides the other servants was Su Wen'an, the most favored eunuch by Emperor Zhaowen.

Emperor Zhaowen opened his eyes, looked into space, and said weakly:

"Wen'an, who do you think is qualified to take the throne?"

How could Su Wen'an dare to answer this question?

"Your Majesty, I have seen that the princes are all very filial."

As for his abilities, how could he, a slave, know so much?

Even if he knew, it was not something he could get involved in.

He now only hopes that after the new emperor ascends the throne, he will be treated with dignity and allow him to return to his hometown to retire.

Emperor Zhaowen also seemed to realize that he had asked the wrong person.

He sighed softly:

"Han Yi and the others should be back soon, right?"

"Your Majesty, the letter has been sent out five days ago. By calculation, General Han should be on his way back to the capital by now."
