Song Paner handles housework and acts decisively.

She quickly settled all the servants in the family.

The Gu family’s house may be a little damaged, but the courtyard wall is particularly strong.

Song Pan'er asked someone to lock the corner doors everywhere, from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard, each door was locked.

The home's guard is arranged in various parts of the outer courtyard.

Several strong mothers were also arranged to patrol the night in the inner courtyard.

No servants are allowed to run around at night.

Many servants at home were injured. Song Pan'er knew that the city would definitely not be able to hire a doctor, and she could not let those servants ignore it, so she asked Gu Jinzhi to help with the wound.

There are also some external medicines in the warehouse.

Gu Jinzhi can't handle the wounds that hurt the tendons and bones. She can still handle it simply by breaking or cutting them.

Not only can she deal with it, but the servants can deal with it themselves.

They were not even so delicate that they used medicine and were wrapped in cloth.

Gu Jinzhi still helped them remove the cloth and used medicine, and told them: "Change the medicine the next day. The weather gets hot every day, and the wounds without medicine are prone to ulceration. The minor injuries become a serious illness, and even their lives are lost."

Gu Jinzhi has a reputation as a miracle doctor.

These servants believed her words very much and nodded in agreement.

After treating the wound, Gu Jinzhi remembered Mo Yun's words about the old house.

"Mom, the house in the old house is much older than ours. Will anyone be injured in the house? Should I give it medicine?" Gu Jinzhi asked.

Song Paner nodded: "I'm so busy that I forgot about this."

She and Gu Jinzhi couldn't leave, and it was getting late. Song Pan'er called Song's mother and Mu Qing, asking them to change their clothes and use some medicine to go to the old house.

"Ask the eldest lady, if anyone is injured at home?" Song Pan'er told Song's mother, "If someone is injured, let's go over and take a look. If the eldest lady asks us, just say it."

Mother Song responded one by one.

Mu Qing was originally around the eldest lady, and she was familiar with the old house.

Song's mother and Mu Qing changed their clothes, and Gu Jinzhi's medicine and carriage were ready.

The two went to the old house and did not come back until it was completely dark.

"It's okay." Song's mother came back and said, "Although the house in the old house is old, the materials are of high quality and the house is solid. Except for the fallen trees in the main courtyard of the Third*** Courtyard, which collapsed the roof of the ear house, none of them collapsed. I said that there were several collapses here. The eldest lady still didn't believe it..."

Song Paner was a little surprised.

"No one was injured?" she asked.

Song's mother said: "That's what the eldest lady said."

Song Pan'er no longer thought about it.

There was no aftershock again at night.

The next day, the sky cleared.

The capital is full of broken walls and ruins, with some devastated people, and some people die. But the bright sun shines on people. It is warm and swept away the haze of yesterday and gives people hope.

The Gu family suffered a petite loss.

People who live in poor life have bad houses, and most of them have collapsed.

Dead dead, wounded.

The court held the Ministry of Revenue and set up a shed at Chaoyangmen, Andingmen and Deshengmen to provide porridge for assistance.

Most of the prominent families in the capital suffered losses. They were too busy to take care of themselves, and no one set up a shed to serve porridge like the court.

Zhu Zhongjun entered the palace and did not leave the palace the next day.

Gu Jinzhi was a little worried about him.

She remembered Zhu Zhongjun's desire to speak before entering the palace...

This time when he came back, they didn't care about talking properly. It was a earthquake. Then, Zhu Zhongjun entered the palace and has not come out yet

#############

The next night after the earthquake, news came from Juyongguan Quick Horse that the entire Guancheng was buried and nearly half of the defenders died.

It turned out that the epicenter of this earthquake was Juyongguan.

Juyong Pass is a very important pass. It was established at the beginning of the dynasty. It was used to resist the robbery and plunder of Tatar nomadic soldiers and is an important barrier to the capital.

Half of this barrier disappears, which is equivalent to exposing the entire capital to the sabers of the nomadic peoples.

When the news came back, the court officials could no longer care about the mistakes of attacking the emperor and taking political troubles.

The whole court was shocked.

Such a strong earthquake destroyed the entire Juyong Pass.

The imperial court's troops were dispersed, and it became the top priority to mobilize troops from where to protect Juyong Pass.

On the third day, someone in the capital heard about Juyongguan.

Those who cherish their lives began to move south.

On one hand, there were panic and security concerns, and on the other hand, there were poor people who lost their houses, and the capital was suddenly in chaos.

There were also heavy losses near Juyongguan.

Many refugees entered the city.

Every day, many refugees wander around Gu’s doorstep.

Song Pan'er first asked the servants to cook porridge at the door and spread porridge. The morning was fine, but in the afternoon, the rice for the porridge was snatched and the pot was snatched, so the refugees were only left to break into their homes.

Song Paner was so angry that he cursed and closed the door tightly.

The situation in the capital has become particularly uneasy.

This uneasiness has not yet continued, and Song Pan'er also heard that Juyongguan was the one who had the accident.

"It's like: the gate of the rich man's house collapsed, and there were no farming outside, riding horses and shooting arrows all day long, and staring at him. All of these gangsters are very skilled. Now that the wall of the yard has fallen, they are half-pushing and half-jumping, and they come in on horseback." Song Pan'er didn't quite understand why something happened to Juyongguan made people so scared, so Gu Yanzhen explained it to her.

After Gu Yanzhen explained, Song Paner's face turned pale.

The Tatars are extremely fierce.

They do not do production, they only grazed. Once they enter the city, they will be looted everywhere.

"Let's leave too." Song Pan'er said, "Go back to Yanling Mansion. Let's take advantage of the fact that there are not many people leaving now, so it's time for everyone to leave, and the boat will not be taken care of."

"How can I go like this?" Gu Yanzhen said, "My legs will be ruined as soon as they bump."

Song Paner was anxious: "What should I do? If we don't leave, the children will have to leave. We can't all stay in Beijing and become the devils of the Tatars."

"Don't be anxious first." Gu Yanzhen comforted her, "If I really can't save it, my brother will definitely leave too. At that time, won't he tell us? Besides, there are still half of the defenders in Juyongguan, and it will be able to withstand for a while. The court is now dispatching troops. Don't listen to the wind and rain."

Seeing that every word he refuted, Song Pan'er glared at him.

She no longer talked to Gu Yanzhen, but to Gu Jinzhi.

She felt that Gu Jinzhi had many ideas and was more knowledgeable than Gu Yanzhen, so she asked her what to do.

"It's okay, the Tatars cannot be called in the chaos." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile.

Song Pan'er glared at her: "You said this too. What if you really hit me in? You can't escape and you can slaughter it."

"It's true!" Gu Jinzhi said seriously, "Mom, there are not only Tatars on the grassland, but also Oirats. One is on the east side of the grassland and the other is on the west side. They all want to unify Mongolia. They hate each other and fight each other. We are worried that the Tatars are attacking us, and the Tatars are fighting each other. They are not available now..."

Song Pan'er looked at Gu Jinzhi in surprise.

"Does these...are there any in the books?" Song Pan'er asked.

Gu Jinzhi laughed and said, "Some."

Song Pan'er still didn't believe it.

She didn't believe Gu Jinzhi could know this kind of military acumen.

"Which book, please bring me a look?" Song Paner pointed Gu Jinzhi's forehead. "It's so much nonsense, it's really like that."

"That's it, mom." Gu Jinzhi smiled, "Besides, my father is right. Juyongguan still has half of its troops, which can withstand for a while. You are worrying about it."

Song Pan'er scolded the ghost girl and left.

She was still not relieved.

The streets have been in chaos these days.

The court was in a state of turmoil.

The emperor really couldn't stand it. He asked Gu Yantao to seize the relationship and return to the court to help handle government affairs.

Gu Yantao said he would consider it.

Song Paner learned the news soon.

She was worried that the Tatars would come in, so she asked Si Jian to go to the street to inquire about the current situation. When she heard that the situation was wrong, the Gu family immediately set off.

Song Paner has packed up all the fineness and softness.

Si Jian not only inquire about Juyongguan, but also inquire about all the big and small things in the court.

The emperor asked Gu Yantao to seize the love so much, so he naturally found out.

"Have you returned to the court to serve as an official?" Song Pan'er muttered.

Gu Jinzhi happened to see his father and heard the news.

She couldn't help but circumcise in her heart.

Unfilial piety is a serious crime and may become a fatal point for uncle and Gu in the future.

My uncle should be very clear about this consequence.

If he really agreed to seize love, it means that his desire for power is too strong, and persuasion will be in vain.

Gu Jinzhi's thoughts were transferred from his uncle to Zhu Zhongjun.

Zhu Zhongjun returned to Beijing from the day of the earthquake and entered the palace, and then disappeared without a word. It has been four days since then.

Gu Jinyi began to feel that Zhu Zhongjun was returning unusually.

Now, there is no news when he enters the palace again, which makes her a little uneasy.

"The Empress Dowager is still here, he should be fine..." Gu Jinzhi silently comforted himself in his heart.

This kind of comfort doesn't work.

The Queen Mother really loves Zhu Zhongjun.

But once there is a conflict with the emperor, the empress dowager will stand on the emperor's side unconditionally.

"Mom, I'll go into the palace to see the Empress Dowager." Gu Jin's words.

She cared about Zhu Zhongjun and the Empress Dowager liked it very much. So she was worried that Zhu Zhongjun would not blame him when she went to see him openly.

Song Pan'er smiled and said, "Do you miss the prince? You can't live with me like this, it turns out that girls are extroverts."

Gu Jinzhi laughed.

That day, she went into the palace.

The palace gate is under high alert.

I heard that it was Miss Gu’s seventh family, so I let her in.

Gu Jinyi arrived at Kunning Palace on his way.

Kunning Palace was established only fourteen years ago and is brand new and sturdy.

When the eunuch saw Gu Jinzhi coming, he led her to the hall and asked her to wait.

Different from before.

If it were in the past, the Queen Mother would have asked her to go directly to the inner hall.

Now she is asked to wait in the outer hall.

Gu Jinzhi thought about it and stood by and waited.

After a moment, Aunt Cheng came out.

"Miss Seven, are you here?" Aunt Cheng smiled, "The prince is talking to the Empress Dowager inside, let's go in later."

Gu Jinyi initially thought that the change in the Empress Dowager's attitude towards her was because of the emperor's ambiguity; now looking at it again, why does it seem to be because of Zhu Zhongjun?

She thought of Zhu Zhongjun's desire to speak before entering the palace.
