"There is still no morning court today!"

"No, I haven't seen the emperor for more than ten days. I heard that the dragon's body was not safe, and all the courts were handed over to the Shangshu Province, and Cai Xiang was fully responsible for handling."

"The King of Ling made a rebellion, and all the ministers above the third rank were massacred. Now, the people in this court are also in different thoughts and are in panic."

"Stop gossiping, be careful to involve yourself!"

Xiao Moyan walked past his colleagues, and could feel the gaze they cast, and also heard their comments. Xiao Moyan also knew about the past few days. The rebellion of King Ling was known to the whole capital. The minister was killed and the emperor was so angry that he could not go to court. The case of rebellion was under trial...

Xiao Moyan is fortunate. His father, Xiao Yan, was the third-rank official of the Minister of Works, and according to the rules, he would enter the Qianyuan Palace on the day of the celebration. However, a few days before the celebration, Xiao Yan couldn't afford to get sick and could not go to the ground. Emperor Liang then exempted him from entering the palace. At that time, many people felt that it was a big regret that Xiao Yan did not participate on such an important day, but in the end, everyone realized that good fortune and misfortune really changed in a flash.

While walking, Xiao Moyan had already walked to the gate of the Ministry of Works' Office and ran into Jiang Weizhen as he looked up.

"Moyan, if you lower your head and walk a few more steps, this stone pillar will be welcomed."

Jiang Weizhen originally wanted to joke and adjust the atmosphere, but unexpectedly, Xiao Moyan did not understand his painstaking efforts.

"Oh, yes, if it weren't for Brother Jiang's reminder, I really didn't notice it!" Jiang Weizhen, after all, was a few years older than Xiao Moyan. In order to express his respect, they always called Jiang Weizhen this; and in order to narrow the distance with these Qingshan Academy students, Jiang Weizhen also called them by their names.

"Moyan, if you have nothing to do now, why not go out for two drinks together?"

"I'm so disrespectful to Brother Jiang invites you like this! We might as well go to Lengyuezhai. It's said that it's been a long time since we went there."

"Just!"

"It's great!" After Xiao Moyan poured a pot of wine into his throat, he finally let go a lot. He no longer had the restraint he had in the official office, and when he spoke angry, he returned to his original state of being unrestrained. "Only you can relax the most!"

"Why, I don't relax at home?" Qi Wantong changed into a sake house again. "You are now also in charge of official titles. You can't get drunk with me, otherwise I won't be able to get rid of it if something happens."

"Everyone is afraid of being involved, Wantong, are you no exception?"

"I'm a small business, how can I compare with you court officials? I have so many people under my command!"

Xiao Moyan grabbed a pot of wine from the table and started pouring it into his mouth. He stopped until he burped hard and looked at Qi Wantong and Jiang Weizhen with a slightly red cheek.

"You two must have known some news. Don't you ask me?"

"What are you asking? Why are you so depressed and drowning your sorrow with wine?"

"There were thirty-two third-rank ministers above the Qianyuan Palace on the day of the celebration. Except for my father, everyone else was there, but only six people who really came out of Qianyuan Palace alive! The reason was that King Ling was planning a rebellion, and now he was imprisoned. The Three Laws were in the joint trial of the accomplices in this rebellion case. Many people thought of my father!"

"Lingzun is lying in bed. This is something that all court officials know. Who would doubt your father and son because of such a thing?"

"Brother Jiang, you have been in the officialdom for several years. Have you not figured out the way in the court yet? As long as someone who is interested uses it, my father is likely to be included in the ranks of the same party. At that time, our Xiao family will be in trouble!"

"It has been more than ten days since the rebellion case was tried, but what progress has been made? As long as you have not had any contact with King Ling, the emperor naturally has no reason to doubt your loyalty."

"Wantong, I have heard that many court officials in the court were arrested for Zhou Xunliang's confession, and some of them were even tortured to death! I was worried that someone would cause trouble for our Xiao family at that time."

"This is a rule that has always been thoroughly investigated. Every time it is very involved. History books have recorded several such struggles for power. Looking at the emperor's character, he has never tolerated people around him to cause trouble. This time, the emperor has ordered a thorough investigation and cannot let a party go. Many former colleagues have become victims."

"In my opinion, it may not be a victim. I have heard of those who have been imprisoned. Judging from their past, they are more of those who have been dependent on King Ling. So I think this is the fact that some people are using the name of investigating the case to fight against the common people!"

Qi Wantong and Xiao Moyan were both surprised by Jiang Weizhen's remarks. Those who have the ability to do this and those who have political purposes must do this. How many people can there be in the court?

"It's not unreasonable for you to say that. These days, the capital has been completely blocked, and outsiders cannot enter, and people in the capital cannot go out. Although it is claimed to be the safety of the capital, in my opinion, it is just a desire to block the news! It seems that the news that those who want to block will be cleansed up the dissidents!"

"I remember when you say that. Didn't Kexin have been running in the capital and the academy before? Have you ever seen her these days?"

"I have never seen Kexin since the fourth day of the fourth month. I have sent someone to look for her. She has searched all the places she often goes to, but she still has nowhere to go. I guess it's a pity that she left the capital before the celebration, but she wanted to come back but was blocked."

After these tangled things, Xiao Moyan realized something in a daze, but the flash point was shorter than a meteor. It appeared in a moment and disappeared in a moment. It was impossible to wait for Xiao Moyan to take action to capture it.

"It's not just Ke Xin who disappeared, but Ke Ran!" Xiao Moyan blurted out to the two of them.

Huh! Yan Keran took a deep breath, and even if he was young and strong, he had to show a tired look at him. The Imperial Guards were killed and all those who survived by luck were imprisoned by the accomplices of the King of Ling. Yan Keran was the only one left in the Imperial Guards. His father was killed, and he still needed to handle the funeral, but King Xiang valued him very much and handed over the full power of the Imperial Guards to him. Every day, they ran to the mansion and the palace, and from time to time they had to squeeze out time to see Princess Yunxuan at Yunqiutai, although Princess Yunxuan never appeared again.

How could Yan Keran do such a big thing to rebuild the Imperial Guard? Under the instruction of King Xiang, Shen Qianji and Dan Tai Wengu helped Yan Keran plan together. With the help of the two of the people, things really went much smoother. After a few moments, Yan Keran became familiar with the two.

On this day, Yan Keran happened to be on duty. After patrolling the harem, he was about to leave the palace and heard the chaotic footsteps from Qingzhi Palace. Out of responsibility, Yan Keran immediately went to check it out. When he arrived outside the Qingzhi Palace, he saw the eunuchs and palace maids running in and out in panic.

Seeing an eunuch running towards the direction of the front, Yan Keran took action to stop the man. When he saw that it was a popular man in front of King Xiang, the eunuch hurriedly saluted.

"No gift! What happened in Qingzhi's palace?"

"Reply to the words of the Captain, the emperor suddenly fainted. The servant is in a hurry to ask the imperial doctor!"

"How did you faint? Didn't the emperor have been fine a few days ago?"

"I don't know this slave!"

Yan Keran took out a bag of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the eunuch's sleeve, "You say it, I will definitely keep it a secret for you. After all, I am the commander of the imperial guards now. Even if you don't tell me, I can still know from others."

The eunuch was so scared that he didn't dare to look up, so he had to say truthfully: "The emperor has been coming to Qingzhi Palace these days. Because the dragon body has been in peace, he asked the imperial concubine to take care of it. Today, the emperor suddenly fainted after lunch. The servant knew this, so please tell the captain to show his hand!"

"Okay, please go and ask the imperial doctor quickly, don't delay the diagnosis and treatment!"

Yan Keran finally looked at Qing Zhigong again. He still controlled his steps, turned around and said to his subordinates: "You should pay more attention to the movements of Qing Zhigong in the days ahead, and report them to me immediately if there is any news!" Then he stepped out of the palace.

After turning a few palace alleys, Yan Keran still wanted to go to the Skylark Tower to take a look. Even though he knew that he had returned in vain, he still retained the last bit of expectations in his heart.

It was quite a long way to detour from Qingzhi Palace to the Skylark Platform. At this time, Yan Keran was alone. He knew that there was a small path that could save more than half of the time, so he walked towards the shortcut.
