MTL - Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!-Chapter 779 Besieged

  Chapter 779 Besieged on all sides

  After Lin Jinke retired to Wei'an County, he soon received the 50,000 advance reinforcements that Tang Yao urgently dispatched from the land of Qinghe, and his morale immediately rose.

  At the suggestion of military adviser Jia Qian, he first sent people to Binzhou near the northwest to ask for help.

  The governor of Binzhou was originally a confidant who was promoted by Tang Yao, but he was worried about the imperial edict issued by the imperial court and refused to send troops to help.

  In a fit of rage, Lin Jinke went straight to the state capital of Binzhou and massacred more than 300 people from Binzhou Governor's family. For a time, people in the northern states were panicked, and all the counties in Binzhou were subordinated.

When Lin Jinke was proud of the spring breeze and was preparing to attack Jingling City again, the news that Langzhou and Yizhou had fallen without bloodshed spread quickly throughout the western and northern states. Hanzhou, Qizhou, and Yanzhou, which were previously shocked The governor quickly gathered 150,000 cavalry and marched towards Binzhou, preparing to respond to Lin Jinxiao's campaign against bandits.

   Several counties in Binzhou also rebelled one after another. Lin Jinke was defeated again and retreated towards Jeju in the southwest.

  At the beginning of June, military information from various places spread to Beijing, and the palace exploded immediately.

Emperor Lin Jinsheng was so angry that he vomited blood because of King Qinghe's massacre of the governor of Binzhou, and passed out for several days. When he was dying, he learned of Lin Jinxiao's victory. After barely recovering, under the careful conditioning of the imperial doctor, he could still eat half a bowl of porridge a day when he was in a better state.

  At this time in Yongan Palace, Empress Dowager Tian Yuchan had just received a letter from her daughter.

  Since her son joined the army, she has obviously aged a lot in the past few months. She can't sleep all night, the dark circles around her eyes are densely covered, and the wrinkles on her forehead have added layer after layer.

Han Guang, the old **** beside her, saw that she was very haggard, and couldn't help but worry: "Don't worry about it, the queen mother, I heard that the general has settled the Qinghe Sanzhou, and I am leading 300,000 cavalry to the east. , when he returns to the capital, he will definitely help His Highness out of trouble."

  Tian Yuchan quietly inspected her daughter's letter, full of accusations between the lines, blaming herself for not being able to stop Jin Ke, causing Yuan Xi to die tragically.

She sighed weakly: "Jin Ke is confused, now that Yu Lan's mother and daughter are being imprisoned, and Jin Qian doesn't want to return to Beijing, why don't Ai's family worry, the only person she loves in this huge palace is Yuan Xi But that child was killed by the son-in-law, and even the Ai family would be ashamed to face Yumo again."

   After a long silence, she suddenly looked up at Han Guang: "How is Tang Yi doing now?"

   "It is said that they were besieged in Zihui County."

  Han Guang replied: "Although the governor of the Tang Dynasty experienced a big defeat, he still has 50,000 elites who can hold back King Pingning."

   "It's just a trapped animal struggling."

  Tian Yuchan let out a long breath: "King Pingning is as powerful as a broken bamboo, and the generals will come out again. If the Rongdi people take the opportunity to go south and lose their ancestors' foundation, what face will they have to meet the lord after a hundred years?"

Yu Guang was still staring at the letter paper: "It was a mistake that would cause eternal hatred. If the general hadn't been careless at that time, how could he have allowed the woman in Zhaochun Palace to succeed? If Jin Ke hadn't let her go Without a girl from the Chu family, how could we be in such a difficult situation today?"

  Thinking of this, she suddenly thought of someone, and asked sharply, "Where is Feng Yue, can Feng Yue be escorted back to Beijing?"

  Han Guang nodded suspiciously: "It seems that he was imprisoned in the prison of Tingwei Mansion together with the son-in-law and Captain Sili."

   "This eunuch, it was he and the Beibin king who conspired to harm my son."

  Tian Yuchan clenched her fists and got up angrily: "Let's go, follow Ai's family to Zhaochun Palace. Ai's family will let the master and servant confront each other in court, and return my son's innocence."

   After finishing speaking, he led Han Guang straight to Zhaochun Palace.

  But when he arrived at Yin Enci's Palace, he heard that Yin Sinian was reporting, only to learn that Feng Yue had committed suicide in prison.

  Tian Yuchan was so angry that she almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, and cursed: "The people in Tingwei's Mansion are a bunch of trash, they can't even take care of a criminal."

   "Although Feng Yue is dead, the consort of the Tang family, Na Kangxiu and the criminals who assassinated King Pingning have all been escorted to Beijing. Is the Empress Dowager still worried that they will not be able to identify Feng Yuepan for slandering King Pingning?"

  Yin Enci glared at each other angrily, and Tian Yuchan was so frightened that she suddenly lost her confidence.

   "It's the king of Beibin who made a hindrance. Please ask the ancestors to detain this person immediately. The courtier's daughter-in-law will definitely persuade Jin Ke to rein in the precipice."

  Tian Yuchan persuaded earnestly.

  From his daughter's letter, he has fully learned what Feng Yue has planned for King Beibin these years.

"late."

  Yin Sinian rolled his hands into his sleeves, walked towards the queen mother, and snorted coldly with disdain: "The king of Beibin has already fled the capital, and he is probably on his way to Qinghe Sanzhou now."

   "What does he want to do?"

  Tian Yuchan suddenly panicked.

   "It's hard to guess."

  Yin Sinian said angrily: "Of course he wants to seize Qinghe's 300,000 cavalry while the two kings are fighting."

  Hearing these words, Tian Yuchan was so frightened that her whole body went limp, and she fell to the ground.

  After pondering for a long time, she raised her head tremblingly, and glared at Yin Enci and Yin Sinian full of resentment: "It's you, it's you who schemed against my son and forced him to rebel."

   "Forcing him? If he keeps his duty, why is he doing this?"

  Yin Enci shook his head with a sneer: "Mr. Tian, ​​even if Aijia forces him, the legs and feet grow on his own body, so he has to let him go on his own way."

   The corners of the wrinkled eyes were deeply sunken, Yin Enci's accumulated resentment for many years finally broke out completely at this moment:

"You disregarded etiquette and law, set a precedent for concubine's house, and persecuted the emperor and his biological mother, but Ai Jia Nianzai Ting Xianqin was assassinated just after he entered Beijing, and still treated your mother and son leniently, but you don't know how to repent. Relying on the power of the Tang family to mutilate Zhongliang and rule out dissidents, the innocent lives that have tragically died at the hands of your mother and son are too numerous to enumerate.

  Your son is so cruel and heartless, even if there is no whereabouts of Jin Xiao, how dare the emperor entrust him with the inheritance that his ancestors worked so hard to build? "

  Facing Yin Enci's aggressive questioning, recalling the past years, Tian Yuchan was already powerless to refute at this time, so she had to lower her posture and plead:

"My daughter-in-law is guilty, but Jin Ke is also the son of your husband, and your majesty's younger brother. Please ask the ancestors to give him a way out and let him go back to the land of green grass. My daughter-in-law will definitely persuade him to change his mind and be diligent in political affairs. Guard the northwest for His Majesty, guard the foundation of the ancestors."

  Hearing these earnest words, Yin Enci only found it funny.

  Don't say that it is difficult for her to dominate Qinghe Land, even if she could, she would not dare to let that **** go back.

   "Bring Tian Shi back to Yong'an Palace, and take all the family members of the General's Mansion into Yong'an Palace for joint custody. No one is allowed to approach Yong'an Palace without the permission of Ai's family."

  After the words fell, Yin Enci walked slowly towards the inner hall leaning on crutches.

  The sound of heavy footsteps was like a death knell, completely breaking Tian Yuchan's hesitant heart.

  She was brought back to Yong'an Palace by the palace people full of vigilance.

  In the inner palace, a woman in a gray robe was already waiting here.

  Looking at the woman's calm posture and the few dishes and drinks on the table, Tian Yuchan sat down with a lonely face.

  The woman in Taoist robe poured a glass of wine slowly and handed it to her, and said with a slow smile: "Eldest sister has been proud of the spring breeze for decades, I'm afraid I never thought that I would have today, right?"
