Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

   For the next few days, Chu Nanzhi stayed in the mansion to take care of the quadruplets, and only let Sang Qi and Tang Weiming take the opportunity to buy new year's goods at the mansion to secretly inquire about what's going on in Jingling City.

  Because the emperor was going out of the city to worship in person at the end of the year, everything went as she expected, and the army in the city began to move frequently the day before the end of the festival.

  In addition to the escorting army, it is especially important to beware of the Qinghe cavalry in the western suburbs.

On this day, Lin Jinshu came to the mansion, thinking that tonight would be the time when Chu Nanzhi guessed that the rebels would force the palace, so she dragged Chu Nanzhi into the inner hall, closed the door and discussed with her: "Nanzhi Right now, apart from the 1,500 imperial guards in the palace led by the son-in-law, the army led by my confidants in the city is only 8,000 soldiers guarding the city. Brother Chenjian ordered me to arrange for the guards. I want to ask your opinion first."

   "What does the princess mean?"

  Chu Nanzhi didn't rush to answer, but asked back with a smirk.

"In the past few days, except for the three major battalions, nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses have been dispatched from the major camps in the suburbs of Beijing to accompany them, and they have all been stationed near the suburbs of Beijing. It means to let the city guards accompany them to guard against the rebellion between King Qinghe and the Queen Mother on the way."

Lin Jinshu said with some hesitation: "But in this way, the remaining 30,000 soldiers and horses of the three major battalions alone may not be able to resist the cavalry stationed in the western suburbs by King Qinghe. I am worried that they will take advantage of the situation , occupy the palace."

   "The princess is very worried."

Only then did Chu Nanzhi express what she was thinking: "King Qinghe has a wicked heart but no guts. He is both pragmatic and famous. He absolutely dare not lead the army into the city rashly. What's more, Princess Mingrishu personally escorts him. It is expected that the mother and son will not dare to make any changes, but they have to guard against it tonight, if they can't solve their worries, they will face forces from both sides when they travel tomorrow."

   "What good idea do you have?"

  Lin Jinshu asked urgently.

   "Since we have laid the groundwork so much, if the forces behind Du Jiuzhen have concerns at this time, wouldn't it be a waste of all previous efforts."

Chu Nanzhi said frankly: "I have a bold idea. Princess Shu might as well use the three major battalions as an excuse to lead the 8,000 defenders out of the city to guard against the garrison in the western suburbs of King Qinghe. King He was born with fear and did not dare to act rashly, which also made the dissidents in the city dare to stand up boldly."

   "But in this way, how can the safety of His Majesty and ancestors be guaranteed?"

  Lin Jinshu looked at her worriedly: "And you and the little treasures."

   "It's just a trick to lure the enemy, the princess doesn't need to worry."

  Chu Nanzhi leaned in front of her and whispered something in her whisper. Lin Jinshu nodded understandingly, then got up and said happily, "I'll leave the matters in the city to you and the son-in-law."

"Do not worry."

  Chu Nanzhi watched Lin Jinshu leave, and then found the box that Lin Jinxiao had given her from the box, which contained the land deeds and tokens privately owned by Zhao Taigong in Beijing.

She called Chen Chuan, and solemnly ordered: "Lieutenant Chen, you go to Chaoguang Gate and hand over this wooden box to the guard Bender, and then return to the mansion. Before I come back, you must stay with the guards every step of the way." Guard the house and protect the second elder and the young princes and princesses."

Chen Chuan heard the conversation between her and the second eldest princess in prison that day, and he was a little worried: "Princess, Your Highness will always protect you every step of the way. Obviously something important happened tonight. If you don't follow How can the princess feel at ease?"

   "I won't be in serious trouble. It's just that your highness and princesses are young. If I'm not at the house at night, they may not be safe. You have to help the old lady take care of them."

  Chu Nanzhi exhorted.

"Can"

   Before Chen Chuan could finish speaking, Chu Nanzhi waved her hand to stop her and said, "It's nothing more, just do as I said."

   Seeing that she had made up her mind, Chen Chuan reluctantly took the box and went out anxiously.

  Chu Nanzhi knew in her heart that although there were some risks tonight, everything was still under her control, and there would be no big troubles.

   Right now, she can't wait to know what kind of power Uncle Sanhuang is hiding in the imperial city. When it is really a last resort, the dead soldiers arranged by Zhao Taigong will naturally show up and protect her when she returns home.

   Having made all the preparations, she pretended nothing happened and went to visit Erbao Lin Ruixi in the east wing of the backyard, quietly waiting for the night to fall.

  After the heavy snowfall, at night, Jingling City was extremely gloomy and cold. As soon as it got dark, there were no pedestrians on the streets, and it was extremely quiet inside and outside the palace.

  A group of people sneaked into the Youting Palace on the northwest side of the palace where you couldn't see your fingers.

   Before the guards could react in time, their throats were cut, and they died quietly.

  After hiding the corpse, a few people guarded the gate, and the rest of them entered the Youting Palace one after another, and walked toward the innermost courtyard with a clear goal.

  Guided by the dim lantern, the group of people soon came to the courtyard.

   "Brother Three Emperors."

  Following a soft call, Nandu Wang Lin Tingkai, who was about to fall asleep, was awakened.

  Lin Tingkai sat up, heard the voice very familiar, went forward to open the door happily, saw that it was Lin Luotong, the Eldest Princess, and asked excitedly: "Luo Tong, why are you here?"

   After the words fell, I couldn't bear to poke my head out and look around.

   "Since the situation is urgent, my younger sister won't play tricks with the emperor."

Lin Luotong handed the prepared armor and sword to him, and said in detail: "Yang Situ and Zhonglang General Pang Yuan have led the three thousand guards of the imperial city to guard outside the Dongxiang Gate, waiting for the imperial brother Go and preside over the overall situation."

   "What is the overall situation in charge?"

  Lin Tingkai looked puzzled, and after a brief silence, he suddenly realized and asked in surprise, "Could it be that you are trying to force the palace?"

   "Exactly, does the emperor still have to choose?"

Lin Luotong signaled him to change clothes, and seeing that he didn't object, he went on to say: "In order to buy time for the emperor, the second younger sister risked herself into the prison of Tingwei Mansion, even though the girl from the Chu family noticed There are some clues, but she will definitely not confess to me, the emperor will definitely take down the emperor and the two old ladies from Yong'an Palace and Zhaochun Palace tonight, and rescue the second sister."

   "Luo Tong, how can you be sure that things will come true?"

  Lin Tingkai put on his armor and put away his sword, but he was still muttering in his heart.

"Tomorrow the little emperor will go out of the city to preside over the year-end ceremony in person. Right now, the five guards in Beijing are being taken out by Jinshu, and the two guards are on guard against the garrison in the western suburbs of Jinke. In the Inner Palace, there is only 1,500 Imperial Guards led by Concubine Ji left in the inner palace, so why not worry about a major failure."

  Lin Luotong sneered speculatively and said: "As long as the emperor breaks into the inner palace within half an hour and obtains the imperial edict for the Zen position, from now on, the Jingling City and even the entire Dahe Empire will naturally be up to the emperor to decide."

  Lin Tingkai knew that today was his only chance to stand up, so he immediately nodded and said distractedly: "Okay, Luo Tong will go back to the palace and wait for the good news from Brother Yu."

   "Brother Huang won Jingling City, don't forget the little sister's help today."

  Lin Luotong's eyes showed a fierce look: "Little sister doesn't ask for anything else, all she wants is the Chu family's mother and son, and they have to live."

   "Okay, it's all up to you."

  After speaking, Lin Tingkai led the guards and strode out of Youting Palace.
