Your Majesty will suffer

The sky was slightly bright, and the Xishan Bieyuan was still in silence, Li Qi had hurried there with Lan Ge.

Last night, Yue Ling didn't return all night. He said that he followed the princess out of the city for an outing, but there was still no one at sunset. Li Qi couldn't help being anxious. He went to the palace to inquire, only to find out that the princess followed the prince to Xishan Bieyuan!Now contacting Chanlai before and after the incident, he has already guessed most of the inside story.It's just that the gate of the city was closed at that time, so Yi Ying had to wait until dawn to discuss.

The night didn't rest, Li Qi rushed to the other garden with Lan Ge as soon as the city gate opened at dawn.

But when it comes to begging to see the son early in the morning, Huangmen is still in a dilemma, but he said that the son had a banquet last night to reward him, and it was a little late to rest, so he has not yet got up at this moment.

Li Qi said: "Your Highness, who did you see last night?"

Seeing Huang Men shaking his head, Li Qi frowned, and was about to ask the princess again, but Bi Yue had already appeared, just looking at her face, she was a little haggard, and she didn't seem to have rested well.It turned out that Yue Ling was sent away last night, she thought about it carefully, and the palace servants reminded her, she realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered someone to go out to look for him, but the man had disappeared.As a result, he was restless all night, passing by in panic.

Hearing this, Li Qi's expression began to change, and a sense of ominousness suddenly arose in his heart, but at this moment, remorse and resentment were useless, so he could only order people to go out to look for it, and at the same time, regardless of the Yellow Gate's obstruction, he went inside to meet the prince: in case something unexpected happened , when he made plans early.

Although Bi Yue didn't know what was going on, but seeing Li Qi's actions, she also secretly guessed that the disaster caused this time was not small, and she was a little trembling for a while, her usual arrogance and willfulness almost disappeared suddenly, but she begged Li Qi to say: "Cousin In front of the eldest brother for a while, can you not mention that I brought Lin Yuan in?"

Li Qi was slightly taken aback, shook his head and sighed softly.

In order to avoid making the crown prince angry by disturbing him abruptly, before Li Qi, the Huangmen had already called at the door for a while, but there was still no movement inside the door. Thinking about it, His Highness was sleeping soundly.

At that moment Li Qi came and called out loudly in front of the door: "Your Highness, Li Qi asks to see you?"

After several beeps, there was still no answer, but he took a step forward, pushed lightly, and the door opened in response to the sound.Li Qi stepped into the room one step at a time, Bi Yue hesitated for a moment, and followed suit.

The room was still dark, Li Qi took two steps, kicked something under his feet, when he looked down, it was a sword coming out of his body!My heart was shocked, and I heard Biyue exclaimed behind me, and when I looked back, I was even more shocked: there were drops of blood on the ground in front of the door!

Biyue had already taught this scene to be intimidated, and stopped with one hand covering her chest, unable to move forward.

After all, Li Qi has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and his courage can be described as outstanding.After the initial shock, he rushed in in two or three steps, raised the curtain, and saw a person lying on the couch with his clothes on his back, and upon closer inspection, it was Nan Gongji!He stepped forward quickly to feel his pulse, his heart felt relieved for a moment, but suddenly a person came from behind him, shaking the person who got up on the couch vigorously, crying "Big brother".Li Qi interjected without a moment's notice, and had to let her cry for a while.

However, thanks to Jing Biyue's commotion, the person on the bed gradually woke up. After coughing twice, he opened his eyes, but he was still confused. Looking around, he seemed to be surprised and said: "What happened?" ?"hoarse voice.

Hearing this, Biyue suddenly turned from grief to joy, and before she had time to wipe away the tears on her cheeks, she plunged into the man's arms, "It's good that brother is fine! Last night was all my younger sister's fault, from now on, younger sister will not dare to make her own decisions." , listen to what others say..."

Hearing the words, the man's expression froze suddenly, and he murmured to himself: "Last night? Last night I..." Yan Jian covered his eyes with one hand, as if he was trying his best to think back.

Bi Yue was still about to speak, but told Li Qi to stop, but said in a low voice: "If your Highness can't remember what happened last night, you might as well get up and go outside to have a look, maybe it can help you think about it."

Bi Yue was startled when she heard that, cousin, when did he treat his elder brother with such a cold look?

"Did he come here last night?" After a long while, he finally asked this question tentatively. Seeing Li Qi nodding his head, the man sat up in shock, and under Bi Yue's surprised eyes, turned over and walked out quickly.

Bi Yue got up and followed closely.Li Qi, on the other hand, took his time and walked slowly behind.

It was daylight.

Looking down, the Qingfeng sword under his feet is cold, and the blood on the sword's edge is still there!Looking in front of the door again, the bloodstains on the bluestone ground are shocking!

There seemed to be darkness in front of his eyes, and Nan Gongji fell down. . .

Full of confusion, Biyue and the rest of the palace have all retreated.

"Your Highness, what happened last night?" A pair of warm hands lightly rested on his shoulders, and Li Qi's unhurried but warm voice sounded in his ears.

The pale man spoke incoherently: "I don't know, I seem to think I'm in a dream... He... He just said that he would send troops to Sichuan, but I was in a hurry... But I definitely didn't mean to hurt him... who will know That wasn't a dream!!" At the end of the speech, he punched the ground hard, showing infinite remorse.

Li Qi frowned tightly, and told what Bi Yue had just told him, and then asked: "Your Highness, what do you think?"

Nangong Ji was at a loss: "What should I do...how?" Asking himself, he was stunned for a moment, then suddenly woke up: "What else can I do, go back to the palace and report to Ming Dad on my behalf, in case something happens, it will have to be done as soon as possible." Make a plan! I... take someone to look for it immediately, I think he is injured, so he shouldn't be able to go far."

Li Qi pondered: "There is no clue yet. In my opinion, it is most important to find the person first! Since he is injured, there should be traces of his past. Besides, it is only two hours since he left at this moment. It's Your Highness, don't be overly discouraged."

It turned out that Li Qi's words were reasonable, and after a while, someone reported that blood stains were found in the path and grass not far from the back door, but it was only nearby, and there would be nothing farther away.This is not surprising, after a heavy rain, it is a blessing that the blood has not been washed away.

Immediately, hundreds of people were dispatched to search outside the mountain, but at night, they still found nothing.

After searching hard for a whole day, Nan Gongji didn't stop for a moment. Under the exhaustion, all kinds of ominous thoughts came to his heart, and he felt a dull pain in his chest, and suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood!When the left and right saw this, they were shocked and rushed to send him back to the garden to rest, but he didn't listen to anything.Unfortunately, when Li Qi arrived and reported the matter, the two hurriedly boarded the car and left. . .

As the night deepened, a small courtyard on the outskirts of the city was still lit, and there was a strong smell of medicine in the small courtyard.

After a while, I heard the door of the main room open with a creak, and a person came out from the inside, and called out softly, and then a little servant ran up, and before asking, he said, "Wait a minute, sir, the medicine is still two short." Divide the heat, and after a while, the small ones will be sent in with you."

The head of the family nodded: "The medicine is not urgent yet, he has not woken up yet, you just fry it carefully. For a while, prepare some hot water with me." After saying this, he turned around and wanted to go back, but after thinking about it, he stopped and looked back: "Tomorrow morning , you go into the city to buy some clothes and food, I am afraid I will stay here for two more days."

The boy responded.

Going back to the inner room, closing the door, walking lightly to the couch, staring at the pale face of the sleeping man, shaking his head and sighing softly, reaching out to touch his forehead, he didn't feel hot, but his heart felt warm. , and carefully tucked the corner of the quilt for him, and then sat down on the couch.

He closed his eyes and meditated for a while, when he heard a soft hum from the couch, he hurriedly got up and approached, and saw that the person had slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly saw the person in front of him clearly, he was stunned: "Yuwen...it's you!" Jian wanted to get up, but when he moved, he felt unbearable pain in his ribs, and immediately fell back on the pillow.

The man hastily stretched out his hand to help him: "You have been in a coma for a whole day from the injury, you should rest well, don't move around, in case the wound will open again."

The person on the bed closed his eyes and did not speak, but his mind gradually cleared up. The events of last night came to his mind one by one, and a chill came to his throat, and he couldn't stop coughing!It made the people beside the couch panic again, and they tried their best to calm them down.

After a short rest, when the man opened his eyes again, the bewilderment in his eyes had dissipated, and the chaos was not as before, but he said slowly: "Where is this?"

The person in front of the couch smiled and took his hand: "This is my outhouse. It's in a remote place, and outsiders can't easily find it. You can take care of it here." After saying that, he patted the back of his hand lightly. , seems to be a relief. . .

The moon was cold and the stars were sparse. On the official road in the western suburbs, a group of people and horses were hurrying towards the city.

In the carriage, Nan Gongji's expression was still gloomy. He had eaten some food hastily just now under Li Qi's persuasion, but now his energy always recovered, but he couldn't find peace for a moment if he didn't find that person for a moment.Although Li Qi's words just now seemed to give him a glimpse of the dawn, but in the end it was just his own speculation, before it was confirmed, he didn't dare to take chances, so the guards he sent to search in the Western Mountains did not dare to withdraw yet.

"How can my cousin deduce this matter based on just a few rut marks?" After thinking about it carefully, there are still many unclear.

"The car marks and horseshoe marks are very clear. It can be seen that they must have been left after the rain last night, and I have also questioned the servants of the palace in the garden. In the past two days, no one rode a horse by the trail behind the other garden. Or take advantage of the car to leave, it is clear that this is left behind by an outsider! On the other hand, the person is injured and cannot go far alone, but since he disappeared out of thin air, there must be someone to respond, this point, It's not hard to guess."

Hearing this, Nan Gongji thought he agreed, but then said: "Why is my cousin suspicious of Yuwen Aohan?"

"Yuwen Aohan has been entangled with him these days. His Highness must have heard of it. I also asked Lan Ge to find out. Yesterday, Lin Yuan met Yuwen Aohan in the restaurant before he came to Bieyuan with the princess. It must be that Ao Han saw the princess's carriage and became suspicious in his heart, so he followed here secretly. It's just that the guards in the other garden are tightly guarded. To avoid people's eyes and ears, Ao Han parked the carriage and horses in the wilderness outside the back garden. Watch around and watch."

Nangong Ji raised his eyebrows: "If things are as expected by my cousin, will Yuwen Aohan have doubts about his identity? Will there be other plans for taking him away this time?"

Li Qi pondered and said: "Based on these clues alone, even if Yuwen Aohan became suspicious, he didn't think of going so far away. At most, he could only suspect the princess..." After a pause, he said in relief : "There is no clue yet, Your Highness, don't worry too much, and go to his house to find out what happened first."

Nangong Ji nodded.

Li Qi continued: "In order to avoid causing more suspicions out of thin air, after entering the city, it is better for Li to go to the Yuwen Mansion alone. Your Highness might as well go back to the palace first. It is better to take a rest after working hard all day, and then go to the King's place. Your Highness still needs to think about how to respond!"

Nangong Ji stroked his forehead and sighed deeply: "How can I rest at this moment? Besides, I'm afraid I can no longer hide my father's place... If there is no news tonight, I can only report the truth and let it be dealt with."

It's Xuzheng time to enter the city.

According to Li Qi's words, he drove straight to Yuwen Mansion alone, but the reply he got was that Ao Han hadn't shown up for several days.Inquiring about his whereabouts, everyone in the government said they didn't know, but this made Li Qi more and more convinced that Yue Ling's disappearance must be inseparable from him.The immediate priority is to find Yuwen Aohan!So he mobilized people and horses overnight to search for them one by one in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion where he usually stays.

It's a pity that after running all night, until dawn, there is still no good news.Li Qi's heart was finally shaken, and he began to hesitate whether to be the king of Shu to learn about this matter.It's just that Nangongji was sent back to the palace to rest because he coughed up blood again in the middle of the night, so it's not appropriate to disturb him immediately, and he is also afraid that the king will be angry and bring the prince down.

After some deliberation, I decided to search for half a day longer.

The sun has risen, and outside the south gate, there is a lot of traffic.Even though Li Qi was anxious in his heart, he had no choice but to tighten the reins and move forward slowly.It was easy to follow the flow of people out of the city gate, but saw a group of people in front of them pointing and discussing something, just blocking the way.

He rode his horse forward a few steps, shouted for everyone to get out of the way, glanced at the crowd inadvertently, and was shocked: the person on the ground in the middle, who was lying sideways, looked very familiar!After a closer look, I felt ecstasy in my heart: Isn't this the person I have been looking for all day and night!

He got off his horse and broke into the crowd with a few steps to help the man up.Seeing his pale face at this moment, although he was pleased to see him, his body went limp in an instant, and he leaned against him and only closed his eyes and gasped for breath.

Li Qi hurriedly sent someone to find a doctor, he helped him to leave, but saw that his mind seemed to be getting more and more confused, he was repeating softly, and when he listened closely, it seemed to be the word "Yuwen".My heart lit up, it really was Yuwen Aohan!Looking down again, he saw that his hand that was in front of him just now had slowly slipped off, and blood was oozing from the white clothes.Terrified for a moment, he dared not stay any longer, hurriedly asked someone to find a carriage and rushed to the nearest medical clinic. . .

Hearing that the person has been found, Nan Gongji rushed to Li's residence regardless of the repeated obstruction of the imperial doctor and the palace staff.

Yue Ling was still drowsy at the moment, but luckily the wound was washed and applied medicine, and the bleeding had been stopped.According to the doctor, the wound is not deep and does not reach the internal organs, because it only needs to rest in peace for a few days, and it will heal itself.

Nan Gongji felt relieved when he heard this, and asked about the beginning and end, Li Qidao heard that Yuwen Aohan seemed to have an outhouse in the south of the city in the morning, so he took people to look for it in the south of the city, but unexpectedly met this injured man at the gate of the city .

Nangongji was about to ask Yuwen Aohan again, when he suddenly heard that the servant came to report, it was a coincidence that someone from Yuwen Mansion was asking to see him.

Li Qi went to the front hall to meet the visitor, Nan Gongji waved away the attendants, and walked lightly inside.

In the slightly dim room, there was a faint smell of medicine.Although Nangongji had never liked this taste, he did not retreat at the moment.Sitting down on the edge of the bed, staring at the sleepy man, raised his hand to touch the pale and thin face, and stroked it lightly: In just two days, he experienced such a shocking parting, why not make people sigh?Fortunately, you finally came back safely.

There seemed to be an inexplicable warm current surging in my heart, and I couldn't help but bent down, and my lips were about to fall to the smooth forehead, but suddenly stopped -- as if I heard the person muttering over and over again!Listening attentively, his complexion suddenly changed, his brows became tighter and tighter, he stared at the comatose man who was still restless for a moment, then got up and left.

In the front hall, Li Qi was contemplating while looking at the wooden box on the table.Seeing Nangong Ji coming out, he got up and said, "Your Highness is going back now?"

Nan Gongji nodded: "Daddy has already set off to pay respects to the Buddha at Anguo Temple in Tianping Mountain at noon today, and ordered me to stay behind. There are still many things to be dealt with in the palace, so I didn't dare to neglect, so I went back to the palace first."

Li Qi pondered: "Your Majesty, are you out of the palace?..."

Nan Gongji nodded: "It will take three or four days to come and go, the affairs of the court, for the time being..." Turning his eyes, he also saw the things on the table, and his face suddenly showed confusion .

Li Qi said: "This thing was sent by Yuwen Mansion just now, and it is to make amends for Yuwen Aohan."

Nangongji was slightly surprised: "Apologize? So, Yuwen Aohan is really the one who took him away that day?"

Li Qi took two steps, raised his eyebrows and said: "Speaking of which, this is the fault! I have just tested the people who came here, it seems that Yuwen Aohan did what Yuan Ying didn't know, just sent this gift to make amends, but it was Yuan Ying The implication is that it is really a bit strange..."

Nan Gongji thought for a while, then smiled and said: "Yuwen Aohan often has troubles outside, so why does his father not know? It's just that the common misfortune is small and he doesn't bother to ask. But last night my cousin went to look for him, and Yuan Ying himself guessed what was wrong. It's a trivial matter, so I sent this thing because I want to calm things down."

When Li Qi heard the words, he seemed to feel that it was reasonable, and that was all for a while.

Although the person has been found, the incident should have been peaceful, but in the past half day, unexpected guests have come one after another.

Talented people from Yuwen Mansion went in front, and the person who had been searching for a night before but could not be found appeared immediately!

As soon as Yuwen Aohan arrived, he readily admitted what happened the night before, and bluntly said that he came here to find out about Yueling's injury.Hearing that he was still in a coma, but his injuries were no longer serious, he didn't force him to see him, so he got up and said goodbye.

Li Qi still had many doubts in his mind. When he was seeing off the passengers, he asked: "Brother Yuwen rescued the man early, why didn't you come to my house and let him know, which made Li worry all night. Let's talk about today, why did he let him go again?" Going back to the city on your own, but knowing that his injury still needs to be taken care of..."

Ao Han smiled wryly, but he only confessed his guilt without saying why.Just before leaving, I also asked him to convey a word on his behalf: the high place is difficult to climb, I hope you will not be obsessed, so you can cherish yourself!

At night, everything is silent.

Just after the sound of three drums, there was a thrilling cry of killing in the night!

Suddenly startled, the door of the room had already been pushed open, and saw a man covered in blood staggering towards him, pointing at himself and yelling angrily: "Since you knew about this earlier, why didn't you come and tell me!"

With a sudden shock, I woke up suddenly, but fortunately, it was just a dream.

Looking around in a daze, the bed curtain and the surrounding furnishings are very familiar.As soon as I moved my body, there was a familiar pain in my ribs---as expected, that night was not a dream!The bone-piercing pain pierced by the sharp blade is still fresh in my memory at this moment.The past is over, but this heart-wrenching pain may be unforgettable in this life.

"Lang Jun is awake?" Looking up, he met Lan Ge's eyes full of concern.

Closing his eyes for a moment, he asked, "What day is it today?"

Lan Ge smiled: "It's the sixth day of the lunar new year, and Mr. Lang has not heard from you for two whole days!"

"Two days..." He said it lightly, and seemed to be lost in thought again.Shao Qing, suddenly opened his eyes, propped up his elbows and wanted to sit up, but he was injured in the end, only halfway up, he fell back weakly.

"What are you doing, Mr. Lang? Your wound is not healed, so don't move around!" Seeing this, Lan Ge hurriedly persuaded him.

But the man couldn't care less about it, and grabbed her: "Did there be any changes in the city in the past two days?"

Lan Ge was puzzled, but only shook his head.Seeing this, Yue Ling seemed to let out a sigh of relief, but his expression remained uncertain, and he immediately instructed her to find Li Qi.Lan Ge knew that he could not disobey, so he hurriedly left as promised.

After a while, Li Qi arrived after hearing the news.Backing away from the left and right sides, he came to the couch and bowed: "Your Majesty is injured, and he should be a good general to take care of him. I don't know why Li was recruited at this moment...?"

"I heard that Yuwen Aohan came here just now, what's the matter?" Before he finished speaking, the teacher interrupted.

Li Qi reported the truth.

Yue Ling looked sideways: "I heard about it from Yuwen Aohan in the morning, and hurried back to the city in a hurry. Does Li Qing know what he said?"

Li Qi shook his head: "Please make it clear, Your Majesty!"

The man said slowly: "Yuwen Yuanying will take the Nangong family and replace him with trouble in these two days!"

It was like a thunderbolt, as calm as Li Qi, but for a moment, he felt his legs and feet go limp, and he almost fell down.After a long silence, it was easy to calm down, and then he said: "Treason is a crime of genocide! Why did Yuwen Aohan tell His Majesty about this? Could it be that he is not afraid of failure and will be involved in the same crime?"

Yue Ling rubbed his forehead, how could he not know this truth, but after careful consideration, he still believed in it, and there was a reason for it: one, since it was a big matter, it was out of thin air, Ao Han didn't dare to fabricate it?Second, his father and son were not on good terms, so it would make sense if they turned against each other because of this.

Li Qi still showed hesitation: "However, if he intends to tell the matter, why does he only talk to His Majesty instead of reporting it to the court? You must know that he may be pardoned lightly."

Yue Ling smiled wryly: "He told me this to persuade me to leave Shuzhong with him!"

The father and son have been at odds for many years, not just because Yuwen Aohan is incompetent!Yuan Ying is ruthless and ruthless, even if his children are close relatives, in his eyes, they are nothing more than pawns that can be manipulated. Shijie and Rousu are a lesson from the past!In order not to follow in the footsteps of others, he pretended to be mediocre to escape the coercion.However, until now, I knew that it would be difficult to get out of the body, so I decided to leave.

"So, Yuwen Aohan, do you want to stay out of the matter?" Only then did he remember what he had told him first, so it made sense.

Yue Ling nodded.Thinking about it, I didn't go with him at that time, and I took advantage of his unpreparedness to leave. If he really had bad intentions, he would definitely chase after him and even silence me!But things were not like that in the end: regardless of the danger, he came back to the city and advised him again. It can be seen that this person is not a person with evil intentions, at least, his conscience is not lost.

Knocking on the palace door at night to see him, Li Qi expresses his urgency.

Nangongji was shocked when he heard it at the first glance: Yuwen Yuanying planned to take advantage of the time when the king of Shu left the palace to make an incident, and it was planned for a long time!After thinking about it for a while, his face showed doubts, and he pondered for a long time, seemingly unable to make a decision.

Li Qi was already in a hurry: If Yuwen's family had an incident, it would be within a couple of days, so how could he be allowed to hesitate?Therefore, he said: "The so-called prevention before it happens, even if your Highness has other worries at the moment, but you still believe in the rebellion, it is the best plan to immediately announce the near ministers to come in and discuss countermeasures, and deploy troops to guard the palace!"

Nangongji's eyebrows were tightened: "Father leaves the palace, if I mobilize troops without authorization, I may provoke criticism! Besides... Yuwen's rebellion, this is only Yue Ling's one-sided words, even if you and I know it in our hearts, how can we explain it to my subordinates?" What's more, if this feeling is not true after all, and I am mobilizing people, it will be difficult to justify myself in front of father, and I am afraid that if it really touches the rebellion of the Yuwen clan, it will lead to a big mistake."

Li Qi paused and said, "When is your highness still thinking about such small things? If your highness is afraid of arbitrarily dispatching troops and causing the king to blame you, then Li Qi is willing to take the blame for your highness. At that time, your highness will do everything possible to spread rumors and cause trouble." The crime can be put on Li Qi's head. Besides, there are many reasons for the transfer of troops, His Highness can easily come up with it, if Yu Wenshi is touched because of this, isn't it showing a guilty conscience?"

Nangongji kept pacing back and forth for a long time before he said bitterly: "Cousin, do you believe in that man's words? Don't forget, this was originally from Yuwen Aohan's mouth. And those two days , the two of them walked so close...and that night in Xishan, it happened to be Yuwen Aohan who rescued him...and no matter how bad Yuwen Aohan was, he was also a member of the Yuwen family. Nine Clans, since he knows this, why does he want to easily reveal this secret relationship to an outsider? Does Cousin really not feel strange?"

Li Qi stared at him blankly, feeling a little chilly in his heart.He lowered his eyes and said, "Since your Highness has some guesses in mind, why not speak up."

Nangong Ji snorted, and said two words coldly: "Divorce!"

Li Qi frowned: "Why did he do this?"

The man snorted coldly: "It's not a matter of a day or two for Daliang to take me from the middle of Sichuan! In recent years, the Yuwen and Murong clans have gradually become disobedient. I wanted to teach him that he thought he had found the opportunity, so he ordered father to eliminate these two clans. Just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and wait to sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman!"

Li Qi shook his head: "It's not easy to provoke the Yuwen family to make trouble, so why would he take the risk himself?"

The man was speechless for a moment.But after pondering for a moment, he turned a paradoxical tone: "Yue Ling has always been deep in the city, how can I guess all of his schemes? I just advise my cousin not to be blinded by his elegant and gentle appearance and become a The chess piece in his hand is not aware of it."

Li Qi didn't say a word, but he let out a long sigh: Was it me who was bewitched by him, or was it you, Your Highness, who were blinded by your own personal grievances!

Stepping out of the forbidden area, the night is already dark, and the voices of people can be faintly heard in the market dozens of feet away.But I don't know how long this peaceful and peaceful state will last?

Li Qi smiled wryly, and got on the driveway: "Go to Li's residence!"

The boy driving the car seemed to be startled, a little dazed.

Seeing this, Li Qi had no choice but to add: "Go to the original Li Mansion!"

Fortunately, there is still this last move to take when it is absolutely necessary.

Running around all day and night.

On the third day, at twilight, Li Qi slowly returned home, but saw Yue Ling waiting in front of the hall.

Just now when he saw the guards coming and going in front of the door hurriedly preparing their chariots and horses, Li Qi knew it in his heart, but he still asked the question knowingly.If you hear that he has been in Sichuan for some time, now is the time to return.Li Qi thought about it, but he didn't ask to stay, he only accused him that he still had some unfinished business here, so he was not allowed to accompany him.It doesn't matter if you are more aggressive than yourself.

The street market in the early morning is a little deserted.

Li Qi sent the guests out of the city, but there were only a few pedestrians and horses passing by, so the road was smooth.

After a while, they came to the gate of the east city, but saw a long line of chariots and horses in front of them, and they stopped.Can't help but wonder, at this time, the city gate has already been opened, but why is it stranded here?Lifting the curtain to inquire, some insiders said that the city gate is changing defenses, and it may take a while.

Li Qi frowned, confessed to the man, and went to investigate further.Walking to the open place, looking up, there was indeed a crowd of people gathered under the city gate.My heart was suddenly confused, even if the defense was deployed, soldiers and horses should not enter the city. What is going on here?Feeling uneasy in his heart, he hurried back to the car and went back to the city.

Seeing this, Yue Ling asked himself why.

Wen He replied: "Things have changed, Your Majesty should go back to the city to find a safe place to hide for a while, and then make plans for going out of the city."

Yue Ling thought about it for a while, and already knew a little about the situation, so he didn't ask any more detailed questions, but raised his eyes and said, "What about you?"

Li Qi lifted the curtain and glanced back, said: "I still have to go to the palace!"

After pondering for a moment, Yue Ling shook his head lightly: "If there is really a change, there may be no safe place in this city. If you want to enter the palace, I will go with you."

Early in the morning, Li Qi came to see him again in a hurry. Nan Gongji guessed that it was Yuwen's matter, so he said: "Cousin, don't be in a hurry. I have ordered someone to investigate this matter thoroughly. I will also call uncle in for a while to discuss it."

Li Qi frowned: "Your Highness just ordered people to conduct a thorough investigation, but did not order troops to enter the city?"

Nan Gongji seemed displeased: "There is no clue yet, how can I act rashly?"

Li Qi's complexion suddenly turned pale, and he paused and said: "The big thing is not good, Your Highness hasten to close the palace gate!"

Nangong Ji asked in surprise, "What happened?"

Li Qi shook his head straight: "I don't have time to elaborate, Your Highness, but just do it! Fortunately, there may be a turning point, I will go out of the palace immediately to report to my father, and send troops to escort me!" Go, then reach the door, then turn around again: "Almost forgot, there is still one thing to entrust Your Highness..."

Followed the palace people into the forbidden area, walked around for a while, and came to a hall, raised his eyes, and saw the words "Wenyuan Pavilion" in the letter.Please come in and rest for a while.

Yue Ling stepped into it, only to realize that it is a study room, the furnishings are not very complicated, but extremely elegant.

After sitting down for a while, he heard a familiar voice from outside the door. Immediately, the door was pushed open, and a person walked up to him, as if pleasantly surprised: "It really is you! How could my cousin lead you into the palace today?" It's Biyue!

Yue Ling hesitated: "This..."

But Biyue didn't have time to listen to him in detail, looked him up and down, and said: "That day, I heard that you seemed to be injured, is it important?"

Yue Ling shook his head: "No problem."

Bi Yue smiled when she heard it: "That's good!" After the words fell, she frowned again: "Speaking of which, what kind of rift did you have with my elder brother? How do I feel that it's not like what you said to me that day?" Like..."

Yue Ling's expression froze, and he was meditating, when he heard a commotion outside, he saw a yellow door rushing in and said: "Princess, it's not good, outside the palace... There's chaos outside the palace!"

Biyue was startled, and panicked: "What are you talking about? What's causing the chaos?"

Huang Men shook his head and said: "Yes... There are rebel troops coming to force the palace!"

When Biyue's body softened, she seemed to be about to collapse.

Fortunately, Yue Ling's eyes were quick and his hands were fast, he hurriedly supported her, and asked, "How is the situation now? Where is Your Highness?"

Huang Mendao: "The situation is unclear, Your Highness has already gone forward, and ordered the little one to lead the Princess and Lord Lang to retreat as soon as possible!"

Looking down from the top of the city, Nan Gongji couldn't believe the scene in front of him: Hundreds of soldiers lined up in front of the palace gate, with their swords out of their sheaths, as if they were going to attack the city at any time!Surprised and angry, he yelled at the city and asked: "Who ordered you to come here? Is this intended to rebel?"

The city replied loudly: "Your Majesty left the capital. Some people in the court wanted to take the opportunity to cut off dissidents. It is said that the traitor hid in the palace immediately. Mr. Yuwen was afraid that His Highness would not be slanderous when he was young, and he was even more afraid that the villain would punish His Highness for failing to achieve his goal. Harmful, so ordered me to come to escort King Qin. Please open the gate of the palace quickly, Your Highness, let me go in and arrest the traitor!"

Yuwen Yuan Ying!It really is him!

Nangongji was furious for a moment, pointing to the city and scolded: "It's a bunch of nonsense, why is there a traitor in the palace? The biggest traitor in my court is Yuwen Yuanying! What you have done today is tantamount to treason. The big mistake has not yet been made, if I step back immediately and bring Yuwen Yuanying to see me, I may still be able to make up for my crime."

Unexpectedly, before the words fell, there were arrows flying from the bottom of the city.Seeing this, the left and right hurriedly protected him to hide inside.

In a short while, the shouts of killing started from the city, and the rebellious army really started to attack the palace gate!

The arrows flying to the top of the city became denser and denser.The enemy was outnumbered, and there were only dozens of soldiers guarding the palace gate, so they had to dispatch the nearby palace people to stand by and wait for reinforcements.

Nangong Ji was determined to stay in the city to supervise the battle, but he couldn't persuade him from left and right, and was panicking, when he suddenly heard several calls from behind: "Brother!" Looking back, it was the Princess Nangong Biyue!Beside him was a handsome man in white clothes.

Nan Gongji became angry when he saw it, and asked: "Who taught you to come here?" He rushed to send it back.

Biyue refused, so she must teach him to go together.But seeing the person beside her approaching and whispering a few words, Bi Yue seemed half-believing, looked at him again, and finally walked down the wall with three steps.

At this time, Nan Gongji was frightened when he heard the shouts from the top of the city again, and turned to look outside to find out.Unexpectedly, it was at this moment that the wind suddenly rang in my ears, I didn't know it well, but I was too late!Fortunately, I was taught to pounce away, staggered and fell to the ground, only to look back in panic, only to see that there were several feathered arrows inserted into the place where I stood just now!

Breaking out in a cold sweat, he looked at the person in front of him, who was gasping for breath while covering his ribs with frowns.Feeling touched in my heart, I stretched out my hand to support him: "I just taught you to go back, why didn't you listen?"

The man straightened up with a haughty expression on his face, but he didn't say a word.

Arrows were still flying towards him, Nan Gongji pulled him into the hall and handed him to the left and right: "Take him down!"

The man snorted: "Where do I want to be, I don't need you to order me!"

The words aroused Nan Gongji's annoyance, and he shouted: "This is the middle of Sichuan, how dare you disobey me? Besides, since you never forgot Yuwen Aohan, why are you here now?... Let me tell you, if you act recklessly again, you will be dealt with with the rebels!"

Hearing this, Yue Ling didn't seem to be angry, but raised his eyes coldly: "Dispose of it? You need to protect yourself before you speak."

As soon as the voice fell, I heard shouts from left and right: "It's on fire!" It turned out that the rebel army had set fire to the palace gate and shot rockets at the top of the city. The situation was extremely bad.

Nan Gongji shook off the palace man who was blocking the way: "The situation is no longer good. If the palace gate is broken, what is the general situation?"

Even so, the palace people dared not let him go to risk, they tried their best to stop him.

During the chaos, I suddenly heard a cold voice: "The palace gate is broken, and the general situation may not be gone. However, if you die here in vain today, there will be no leader in the palace. What will happen at that time is really unpredictable!"

Nan Gongji was startled, but heard the man continue to say: "Li Qi has gone to rescue the soldiers, maybe there will be news in a few hours. Now the enemy is outnumbered, you must stick to the city, it is really a show of bravery! If something unexpected happens to you, even if you wait for reinforcements, it will be gone!"

One word awakens the dreamer!Nan Gongji looked back at the top of the city, although he was still unwilling, he closed his eyes: "Go back to the harem!"

The Wenyuan Pavilion in the northeast corner of the palace is considered secluded, and if the rebel army invaded it, they couldn't find it for a while, because everyone took refuge here temporarily.

Yuwen Yuanying, this old man has been planning this for a long time, since he knows that the Li family is the confidant of the King of Shu, and has always been an enemy of his Yuwen family, how can he not defend himself?If he had planned to this point in advance and took down the Li and Han clans who were deeply troubled when he forced the palace, then it would really be hopeless at the moment.

She was very worried, but in front of all the people, especially Biyue and other girls, Nan Gongji tried to hide her anxiety and tried her best to comfort her.

Time passed quietly, and everyone had their own worries in their hearts, but they dared not speak out, it was really like sitting on pins and needles.

It was almost noon, and the reinforcements still hadn't arrived. On the contrary, there was a bad news: the palace gate was broken, and the rebel army had entered the forbidden area!

Hearing this, Hu, Du and other ladies suddenly sobbed.

Nangongji was frightened and angry, he drew his sword and was about to go out, but Nangongqing and Biyue were taught to hold him back and tried hard to persuade each other.Seeing this, Nan Gongji felt sorry for himself, and sighed: "Today's incident was originally caused by my self-willedness and disobedience to advice. Now I will be troubled by others, so how can I bear it? Thinking about Yuwen's forced palace today, what he meant Of course it’s me, so I might as well please him, or maybe I can still have a chance with you.”

When everyone heard the words, they all wailed.

"Even if death is inevitable, why bother?" Yue Ling was very calm at the moment.

Nangongji smiled bitterly at a loss: "What else can you do?"

"The number of rebellious troops is no more than a few hundred at most. How many people are still in the palace can be assembled to resist. It is only a while if they can be saved for a while, maybe a burst of reinforcements will arrive! And the most urgent thing is to leave this place as soon as possible. The army may not be able to find it immediately, but we are all in one place, too conspicuous, so it is the best policy to separate and hide at this moment!"

Nangongji thought for a while, and decided to act according to his words.
