Qinglongfang, Wang Renbiao's residence.

"Master, Yu Yao heard this. As for what the second master said to Xiao Ying, Yu Yao doesn't know."

In a beautifully decorated room, Leng Yuyao softly reported to Wang Renbiao.

Wang Renbiao stood up, folded the folding fan, and tapped his left hand gently. He walked slowly to a row of bookshelves, pondered for a long time, sighed and said:

"Hey, even if you didn't hear those words, Yao'er, I can still guess a lot. It seems like my younger brother is going to do something stupid."

Hearing this, Leng Yuyao was curious, but she didn't ask any more questions. This was also due to her temperament. When she thought about it, if the young master was willing to tell her, he would tell her even if she didn't ask.

Wang Renbiao hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind:

"No, Li Zexuan is no longer what he used to be. If his second brother is allowed to do whatever he wants, he will definitely bring trouble to the Wang family. Besides, Li Zexuan and I have just started cooperating. How can we let him do bad things? Yao'er, you set off immediately and follow him secretly. Xiao Ying, if he does anything unusual, please send me the news immediately!"

Leng Yuyao nodded and responded: "Yes, Master."

After saying that, she picked up the sword and turned around to go out.

"etc!"

Wang Renbiao stopped him again.

Leng Yuyao turned around and asked, "Do you have any other instructions, Master?"

Wang Renbiao took a deep look at Leng Yuyao's beautiful eyes and said solemnly: "Be careful and don't show off. If you are discovered, remember to get out in time. Nothing is more important than your life."

Leng Yuyao's thousand-year-old Hanshuang face finally showed a trace of tenderness, and she said softly: "Don't worry, young master, Yuyao's divine breath technique is the secret method of our master, even the masters can hardly detect it, so nothing will happen! "

Wang Renbiao nodded, Leng Yuyao opened the door and left. In the courtyard, she disappeared without a trace.

… … …

the next day.

In the Tai Chi Hall, the morning dynasty has come to an end.

"Your Majesty, the 30,000 curved shaft plows built by the Ministry of Industry have all been distributed to prefecture and county yamen near Chang'an, and will be leased or sold to farmers by local governments."

Yan Lide bowed.

Li Er nodded happily: "That's great. Thank you for your hard work, Yan Aiqing. Although spring plowing is a little late now, we can always recover some losses for the people by making up for it."

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

After Yan Lide finished speaking, he retreated to his original position.

"Do you have anything else to report, sir?"

Li Er secretly rubbed his waist, looked at the ministers and asked, but secretly thought that he seemed to have overworked last night, so he had to ask the imperial chef to make some tiger whip soup to make up for it.

His Highness and his ministers looked at each other and then bowed their heads.

Upon seeing this, Li Er announced his withdrawal from the court.

Soon, all the ministers dispersed. Only Qin Qiong went out and quietly returned.

After Li Er retired from the court, he came to the back hall of Taiji Palace. Just as he was about to change his clothes and go to the West Neiyuan to rest, he saw a small chamberlain coming in and reporting:

"Your Majesty, Duke Yi has something to ask for!"

Li Er stopped what he was doing and said in surprise: "Oh? What's the matter with Shu Bao? Quickly declare."

"promise!"

The chamberlain accepted the order with his hands and slowly retreated.

A moment later, Qin Qiong walked in tremblingly, bowed and saluted Li Er:

"Old minister, see your Majesty!"

Li Er said hurriedly: "Uncle Bao, hurry up and excuse yourself. If you come, please give me a seat!"

The chamberlain brought a bar stool, Qin Qiong cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Er waved his hand and asked, "Shubao, what do you want to see me for? Why didn't you tell me in the court just now?"

Qin Qiong glanced at the palace maids and chamberlains around him, hesitated for a moment, and said with cupped hands: "This matter is of great importance. I dare you, Your Majesty, please step aside!"

Li Er became even more curious and waved to the palace maid: "You guys go down first!"

"promise!"

After they all exited the inner hall, Li Er looked at Qin Qiong and smiled:

"Shu Bao, this is the first time you have discussed something with me so seriously. Now that everyone has retreated, can Shu Bao say something?"

Qin Qiong took out a memorial from his sleeve, stood up, presented it to Li Er with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, please read it."

Li Er smiled, took the memorial, and opened it casually. After a moment, Li Er's expression suddenly changed, and the relaxed expression on his face disappeared. Qin Qiong stood quietly aside with her hands tied, silent.

About a quarter of an hour later, Li Er put down the memorial, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot. He stood up, looked at Qin Qiong steadily, and said in a deep voice:

"Uncle Bao, do you believe this prophecy made by Master Lingxu?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I believe that it is better to believe that such things are true than to believe that they are not true. Besides, Master Lingxu is an immortal figure worthy of creation, so I believe that this prophecy is credible!"

Li Er said angrily: "That's nonsense! Do you want me to issue a decree for the people of the world to deal with the locust plague in advance because of a prophecy? Do you know that if this matter spreads, it will cause chaos in the world? This nonsense must have come from Li Zexuan Is that coming from that brat’s mouth? This brat is restless every day, I think he has had enough of his leisurely life!”

Qin Qiong said quickly: "Your Majesty, this matter was raised entirely by the veteran. Li Zexuan had no intention of telling the prophecy. He was forced by the veteran to tell the truth. The honor and disgrace of the veteran is irrelevant. I just hope that the people in the world will suffer less. I am willing to bear the suffering and consequences of this matter."

After Qin Qiong finished speaking, he bowed deeply to Li Er.

Although he and Li Zexuan agreed yesterday that the memorial would be jointly signed and they would share the responsibility if something went wrong, when Qin Qiong wrote the memorial last night, after thinking about it, he still did not write Li Zexuan's name. In his opinion, Li Zexuan was still young. , there is a long way to go, and I am already a disabled body, so I should share the burden with the future generations.

Li Er was moved and quickly helped Qin Qiong up and said: "Shu Bao, why are you like this? You are dedicated to serving the country and the people. How can I be so indifferent, but Shu Bao, you are so sure that this prophecy will come true?"

Until now, Li Er is unwilling to believe the fact of the locust plague, because once the locust plague occurs, there will be people who confuse the people, saying that the princess is unkind, and this is a punishment from heaven.

Qin Qiong said: "Your Majesty, I don't know if you have noticed that the weather this year is really abnormal. It has just arrived in May and it is already so hot. Among the several major locust plagues recorded in history books, most of the first years were severe droughts, so I heard this." Then it was predicted that something would happen next year.”

Li Er touched his chin and said in disbelief: "But there have been countless drought years, and there have never been so many locust plagues in history?"

Seeing that Qin Qiong still couldn't talk to Li Er, he hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, according to what Li Zexuan said, Master Lingxu made a prophecy a few years ago..."

Li Er asked subconsciously: "What prophecy?"

"Your Majesty, that prophecy was fulfilled at Xuanwu Gate on the fourth day of June last year."

quiet! The entire hall suddenly fell into an eerie silence! All you could hear was Li Er's heavy breathing!

Qin Qiong raised her eyebrows and held her breath, with a serious look on her face. She lowered her head and stood aside without saying a word.

Li Er's eyes were red and he stared at Qin Qiong, the changes in Xuanwu Gate! There are still people who dare to mention the Xuanwu Gate changes in front of him!

If it were anyone else in front of him, Li Er would definitely have someone drag him out and behead him without hesitation. But the person in front of him was Qin Qiong, the second brother Qin who had saved him from danger several times in battles in the early years!

Qin Qiong was the only general among Li Er's confidants who did not participate in the Xuanwu Gate Incident. Later, the courtiers thought that Li Er would completely ignore Qin Qiong, but no one knew that Qin Qiong's status in Li Er's heart would never waver. .

After a long time, Li Er turned around and shouted: "Come here, tell Li Zexuan to enter the palace!"

"promise!"
