"Is it snowing?" Li Zhe stood at the door of Prince Pu's Mansion, feeling the slightest chill on his face, and murmured as he looked up at the night sky.
Li Hong followed and got out of the car. He looked up at the scattered snowflakes in the night sky. He stretched out his palm to catch it for a long time. Only a few silent snowflakes just fell on his palm. With the temperature of his palm, they melted instantly, leaving behind There were a few traces of vigilant moisture.
"It'll be easier if it snows. If Lao Ba is really kidnapped, if they want to leave Chang'an City, they won't be able to erase the ruts anyway. Let's go in first." Li Hong patted his hands and was still feeling this winter. Li Zhe, who was snowing for the second time, walked in first.
It was not Bai Chun who greeted the two at the door, but two other palace maids and two eunuchs. After signaling them to excuse themselves, they asked them to take him and Li Zhe to the meeting hall of Prince Pu's Mansion.
"Brother Emperor, should you change the name of Prince Pu's Mansion? The name of Prince Pu's Mansion on the door is so eye-catching." Li Zhe followed Li Hong and looked around at Prince Pu's Mansion, who rarely came here, and suggested.
"Then what name do you want to change it to?" Li Hong asked perfunctorily about this meaningless proposal without turning his head.
"I don't know, this is not my mansion."
Li Hong ignored him and quickly walked into the meeting hall. Bai Chunya had just taken a carrier pigeon from the hand of a palace maid. After taking off the note on it, before he had time to read it, he saw Li Hong He and Li Zhe walked in quickly.
Seeing Li Zhe's appearance, Bai Chun showed no strange expression on his face. He saluted calmly to the two of them, then opened the note and took a look. A trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He raised his head and said to Li Hong: "Your Highness, there is no news yet, not even a clue."
Li Hong hummed softly, and then sat down in the front seat. He looked at the papers of different sizes and colors on the table. After casually flipping through a few of them, he pushed them aside.
"What should we do now?" When Li Zhe saw that Li Hong was ignoring him, he reached out to the pile of notes. After looking through a few pieces of paper, he retracted his hand and asked when he saw that there was nothing of interest.
"What else can we do? Just wait. Since the three of us have been notified, they will definitely not be in the imperial city, so we have to come out and see if we can wait for any news here." The more Li Hong thought about it, the more incredible and extraordinary it became. .
Li Dan's two maids and eunuchs told the three of them respectively that it was obviously someone who had instructed them, and it was impossible for them to do it on their own initiative.
So based on this, it can definitely be determined that Lao Ba was kidnapped instead of getting lost stupidly.
But was it Pei Yan's remaining party who hijacked Li Dan, or was someone else hijacking Li Dan? The motives of Pei Yan Yu's party are easy to guess, but if others hijacked Li Dan, what was their purpose
He, Li Xian, Li Zhe, and Li Dan were all born from the same mother, and now they are forcibly tied to the same line. What do they want
Is the ultimate goal the four of us or the mother and queen? Or do you have other plans
"Do you think it was Lao Liu who set up a trap on his own... Ouch... what are you doing?" Li Zhe covered the sore back of his head and looked at Li Hong sadly. He couldn't help but think of Liu Xiang who was knocked unconscious by him in the East Palace just now. scene.
"Lao Liu is not a fool. What does he want from Lao Ba? It won't bring him any benefit. He would do such a thing only because he is sick." Li Hong glanced at Bai Chun, who was worried next to him.
Because of their young age, the fat little Li Dan and Li Lingyue have been loved by their father and mother since they were young. Even the other concubines in the palace, because they have no heirs of their own, have feelings for the chubby Li Dan from the bottom of their hearts. Very fond of it.
On weekdays in the harem, he would be invited by other concubines to eat and drink at sea from time to time. When he left, he would naturally carry large and small bags and be sent back to Li Dan's palace in person by the concubines.
Therefore, he always had a naive image and was favored by the concubines, maids and others in the palace. Even Li Lingyue would sometimes exploit the little fat man out of jealousy.
Yiyang, Gao An, Bai Chun and others naturally love teasing the little fat man. Compared to Li Lingyue's cleverness, Li Dan's simplicity is more popular with women, so it is understandable that Bai Chun has a hint of worry on his face.
The three of them sat in the meeting hall and looked at each other without saying anything. Li Zhe didn't know how to save him. Now he thought he couldn't compare to Li Hong when it came to using his brain, so he simply gave up using his brain and focused on catching and kidnapping him. Li Dan's queen, please take care of yourself before we talk!
Bai Chun's face showed worry and guilt. She always thought in her heart that she had not been able to help Jingwei until now, which made her feel very incompetent.
Li Hong glanced at Bai Chun. The two had been together for almost ten years. Naturally, he could guess the exact expression on Bai Chun's beautiful face and what he was thinking in his heart.
So he held Bai Chun's catkins and said softly: "You have done a good enough job. If it weren't for taking care of me, you wouldn't be like this now. I understand."
Bai Chun weakly squeezed out a smile, put his other hand on the back of Li Hong's hand, and murmured: "But King Yin has always been lovable and naive, and he never quarreled with others. If..."
"Don't worry, he will be fine. There should be no problem with his safety. The hijackers are willing to take the initiative to tell us the news about Li Dan's loss, which proves that they are not targeting Li Dan, but the three of us. One of them, or three of us, so there is no need to worry about his safety." Li Hong took out his hand and stroked Bai Chun's smooth hair.
"That's it, what's the use of your worries? Just let the emperor find a way. He will definitely be able to rescue Lao Ba. After catching those people, I will help you vent your anger!" Li Zhe clenched his fists, and at this moment there was another He regained the heroic spirit of a macho man and completely forgot about his embarrassment when he beat Liu Xiang just now.
"Your Highness, King Pei has arrived." The palace maid stood at the door and said respectfully, with a thin layer of snow falling on her body.
"Let him come in." Li Hong said calmly.
"Then, slave, go and greet King Pei." Bai Chun stood up and went to greet Li Xian.
Of course she knew in her heart the overt and covert struggle between His Highness and King Pei, so she did not want to make King Pei dissatisfied with His Highness because of some of her rude actions, even in small details such as the welcome.
His Highness himself does not need to go to greet him, but it is different for Prince Pei. In any case, as the master of Prince Pu's Mansion, he should go out to greet him.
Li Hong didn't stop him and nodded casually, indicating his agreement.
But Li Zhe looked at Bai Chun's tall figure walking out, pointed at the door, and then pointed at Li Hong: "No need, you will be the emperor's wife in the future, there is no need..."
"If you stop saying a few words, no one will think you are mute, do you understand?" Li Hong kicked Li Zhe's chair and said coldly.
"How dare Ming Yun bother the emperor's wife to greet him in person? Wouldn't this be a disgrace to Ming Yun? Emperor's wife, please come back and sit down." Li Xian at the door was covered with a layer of dense snowflakes, and even his eyelashes were stained with melting snowflakes. a few snowflakes.
"You're sick, aren't you?" Li Hong didn't need to look back to know that it was Li Xian, who called himself Li Xian, following Li Zhe's words and teasing Bai Chun.
Bai Chun's beautiful cheeks were teased by King Ying and King Pei in turn. A trace of blush flashed on her face, but she didn't know whether it was blushing from shame, nervousness, or embarrassment. She turned around and took two steps, and sat back down again. Hong's side.
Regardless of the thick expensive carpet under his feet being stained, Li Xian shook off the remaining snowflakes all over his body, walked up behind Li Zhe carelessly, and patted the unsuspecting Li Zhe on the head: "Go, sit over there. "
"Why? Is there a first-come, first-served basis?"
"Do you understand the order of elders and younger ones?" Li Xian naturally pointed to Li Hong next to him, and then pointed to Li Zhe's chair, meaning that when it comes to elders and younger ones, he should be ranked next to Li Hong. It can only be ranked next to me.
"It's really interesting. If you come late, you can use the old and the young to suppress others. If I don't let you do what you can do to me." Li Zhe said forcefully, but he honestly moved his body down. Sat down on the chair.
Li Hong watched with cold eyes as the two of them staged the "brothers killing each other" situation. After Li Xian sat down, he personally took the hot drink prepared by the palace maid and placed it in front of Li Xian: "Thank you for your hard work on this trip. Please warm up first." body."
"Everyone has been brought here, a thousand people, led by Lawless. According to your request, after entering Chang'an City, they all galloped over on horseback. I am afraid that half of the city guards in Chang'an City were alerted. It is estimated that this Everyone is rushing here." Li Xian took out the jade pendant and token from his arms and placed them in front of Li Hong.
"That's right. Otherwise, how can we alert the snake?" Li Hong tied the token around his waist again, while Liu Xiang picked up the token and looked at it before handing it to Bai Chun.
"No, you were afraid that the emperor and the queen would find out, and then get angry and punish the three of us. Now you want me to lead your pagoda camp into the city in such a big way and blatantly. Are you afraid that the emperor and the queen will not know, or do you want to You're cheating me." Li Xian said dissatisfied.
The message to myself suddenly changed. As soon as I left the East Palace, I received a message from him, telling me to try not to make too much noise. When I arrived at the gate of the city, I sent someone to say that there was no need to let the Futu Camp enter the city. I had just followed him. Lawless contacted him and was about to let them return to camp. Then he received Li Hong's order and galloped his horse to Chang'an City and immediately arrived at Prince Pu's Mansion. It's no wonder that Li Xian, who had been tortured all the way, was now complaining to him.
"The soldiers are not tired of deceit, and people don't know what the three of us are thinking, and let them guess whether we are brothers working together, or whether we have our own minds. In short, after such a toss, the city's military guards became nervous, so they hijacked the old man Ba's people will also become nervous. If Lao Ba is kidnapped, knowing these news may help him calm down and know that we are trying to save him. I hope he won't be crying at this time. "
After finishing speaking, Li Hong sighed deeply. If his prediction was good, someone would be sending a letter soon, telling him where to go to save people.
