不进京城。”小慕容笑道:“皇陵派眼线再多,总不可能每个都认识我们,也不必那么担心。”当下五人便策驴进 城。
                                                                                                                                                                这一日的京城,气氛却和平时大不相同,虽然喧闹依旧,但是喧的闹的,是明朝定都以来从没发生过的大事。文渊等五人进城没多久,很快便听得了这个消息:正统皇帝亲征瓦剌,行军至土木堡─怀来县西二十余里─,被瓦剌军队团团包围。
                                                                                                                                                                八月 十四日上突围而走,半路被也先率军追到,一战之下,全军覆没。五十万人马成了遍野尸骸,随行的文官武将,几乎全部命丧乱军之中,包括 大倡亲征的王振,在大败之余,号哭不已,被恼怒的护卫将军樊忠一锤打死。
                                                                                                                                                                而正统皇帝,堂堂大明天子,则被瓦剌铁骑北掳而去,未得逃回京城。败兵回报京中,如此大事,已然震动朝廷,奉天殿上百官痛哭,乱成一团。
                                                                                                                                                                乍然闻此巨变,文渊大为惊愕,想到寇非天死前言行,顿时了然:“我只以为寇非天所言,是告诉我这一战的惨败,会让龙驭清有机可乘 ,不料连当今皇帝都给瓦剌俘虏了。国一日无君,朝野势必动荡,这就是寇非天所暗示,龙驭清的机会?”这是他先前未曾预料到的情势。
                                                                                                                                                                皇帝沦为外敌战俘的大祸,晋有永嘉,宋有靖康,都是导致国破家亡,江山易主的大惨变。如今发生了这 等变动,文渊即使不想多管龙驭清的事,这时也不能置身事外了。
                                                                                                                                                                秋风吹笼下的京城,仿佛弥漫着兵戎相见的肃杀之气。
