Qin Qing sat in the room with a blank face. Just after he was sent to Xiaoshuang Hall by Li Hanyou, his father slapped his acupuncture point as soon as he unlocked his acupuncture point, but Qin Qing couldn't say anything. What could he say? My father repeatedly warned himself not to let Li Hanyou contact the banned army, but he did not do it, and he easily took away the military power. Seeing that his face was ashen, Qin Yi was even more angry and beat him fiercely. Fortunately, Duke Wei stopped his father, and he still remembered the words of Duke Wei to comfort his father.
"Old Qin, don't get angry anymore. My nephew is young and ignorant after all, and Li Hanyou is also a princess. My nephew can't help but be unsuspecting. It's also your fault. You don't teach well on weekdays. Besides, it's the emperor who refers to the marriage. Blame it, if the emperor knew about it, it would be embarrassing."
In this way, his father locked himself in this wing and stopped asking questions. However, the pain in Qin Qing's heart became more and more severe. He carefully thought about the time spent with Li Hanyou, bit by bit, It was indescribable tenderness. That beautiful and dazzling woman completely intoxicated himself. He forgot the hardships of the bloody battle on the battlefield and the deep friendship of Paoze's brothers and sisters. As long as Li Hanyou had a resentful look in his eyes, he couldn't help but go do anything. But Li Hanyou, she has always been false to herself. If not, why did she not even ask herself if she was willing to rebel against her? Betrayal of the family, isn't it, didn't she complain about this a long time ago. Qin Qing didn't know, if Li Hanyou really asked if he was willing to rebel against her, whether he would agree, but she never asked, just like when she sent herself back to her father just now, her eyes were full of indifference , as if it were an inanimate object. Uncontrollable resentment surged from his heart, Qin Qing let out a low roar and clenched his fists. Blood oozes from clenched teeth.
In Hanxiang Garden, I was in trouble. This place has been forgotten by everyone, except for the Imperial Guard who occasionally come to patrol, but they are not careful, and even a little sloppy. It seems that the control of Fengyi Sect is not strong, and Her Royal Highness The Princess has prepared some food in advance, enough for me and Dong Que Edible, so I could have stayed in Hanxiang Garden and waited for the ending. But I fell ill. It's not surprising when I think about it. I was already sick when I arrived at the Hunting Palace. I was so tossed last night and today. It doesn't matter if it was someone else. I probably felt that I had done everything I could, and after I relaxed, I couldn't be ill.
But I hurried to Hanxiang Garden last night. Although I could avoid the palace gate controlled by the imperial army, I couldn't bring a lot of medicines, and there was no way for famous doctors to treat without medicines, so I could only take a few capsules for myself. The formulated pills then passed out. When I woke up, I saw Dong Que sitting on the side, looking uneasy, I whispered, "Dong Que, has Xiahou Yuanfeng set off?"
Dong Que said calmly: "Yes, my senior brother accompanied him to guard us, and no one has come to Hanxiang Garden to arrest us, so the son's plan has been successful."
I sighed, "Didn't I tell you to hide somewhere else?"
Dong Que said lightly, "If I let you get caught, I'm afraid that Master Li will be the first to settle accounts with me in the future."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Shunzi is not such an unreasonable person, is he?"
Dong Que said with a smile: "If you meet again, the young master is still worried about how to explain it. You asked him to rescue General Pei, and you didn't tell him that you would stay. I think Master Li will be angry when he finds out."
My heart trembled, Xiao Shunzi looked angry and didn't want to, but, I don't know what he is doing now, but rushing back is not something he would do. After all, if King Yong fails, then I am really the world. Great, there is nowhere to escape.
Dong Que hesitated for a moment and said, "Young Master, now you are in a serious condition, even if Qin Yong can come to rescue the driver, it will take at least nearly a day, and there is not a few days, I am afraid that the chaos will not be pacified, if your illness continues ,I am afraid-"
I know what he is worried about, but what can I do now? I'm not in Prince Yong's mansion, but I'm saving my life. Feeling dizzy for a while, I fell down on the bed again. Dong Que said worriedly: "Young Master, this is not acceptable. If you delay it for a few more days, I am afraid that your life will not be guaranteed."
I smiled helplessly, and no longer had the energy to speak, so I fell into a coma.
The sun was in the middle of the sky, Qin Yong walked out of the tent and stretched his muscles and bones. This time, the general power of the general was handed over to him. If it weren't for this reason, the emperor would not have ordered his uncle to station the army a hundred miles away from the hunting palace.
Qin Yong looked at the sky and was about to go back to the tent when suddenly a sergeant came to report, and a man named Li Shun came to ask for an interview. Qin Yong was startled, he knew about Li Shun, but why did King Yong Sima's cronies come to see him? He had to know that his army could only obey the emperor's orders. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Please meet him at the big tent." Qin Yong thought to himself that as long as he summoned all the guards, even if that person came to assassinate, he should also be able to escape with his life, as long as he was ready to shoot the bow and arrow Hand, it is possible to kill him.
When Li Shun walked into the tent, Qin Yong felt a chill in his heart. He saw that this young man, who usually dressed elegantly and neatly, was covered in dried blood, his face was sinking like water, his eyes were open and closed, and there was a flash of cruelty and coldness. of light. Qin Yong smiled and said: "Master Li, please take a seat. I don't know why Master Li is not serving Lord Jiang in the hunting palace. Why did he come to my camp to ask for a meeting, and he still looks so embarrassed."
Xiao Shunzi looked at the guards on both sides coldly, and said, "I'm not here today to assassinate him. If General Qin is willing to talk to Zaixia in private, then it's best, otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be offended a lot."
The guards on both sides were furious and pulled out their swords together, waiting only for Qin Yong's order, but Qin Yong knew that Li Shun was very powerful. If he annoyed him, it was possible that he would kill him immediately, even if he escaped with his own life. , his own guards will also suffer heavy casualties, what's more, behind this person, there is King Yong Sima Jiangzhe, and King Yong, he can't afford to offend him, not to mention that he described him as being so embarrassed, he knew Something big happened. So Qin Yong waved his hand and said, "You guys step back."
The guards quickly retreated, Qin Yong stood up, walked to Li Shun, and asked, "Please tell me the truth, Master Li, what happened in the Hunting Palace?"
Xiao Shunzi glanced at him and said, "The prince has rebelled, and King Yong has already broken through. He has sent me here to invite the general to rescue him."
Qin Yong took a deep breath and said, "How is this possible, the forbidden army is under the control of my uncle."
Li Shun recounted the situation. Although he had guessed a lot of things, Qin Yong already knew that the situation was urgent based on the situation. He fell down on the chair, something happened to the forbidden army, and it was a rebellion led by Fengyi Sect. He thought that something must have gone wrong with Qin Qing, but is this true? It is King Yong who wants to rebel, so this deployment of troops may fall into a trap.
Li Shun saw his hesitation, a flash of ice flashed in his eyes, and said coldly: "What is General Qin still thinking about, His Royal Highness King Yong only wants you to go to rescue him, but he didn't ask you to rescue him, now His Highness Although it is in danger, if you save the holy car, His Royal Highness King Yong will be able to escape. Moreover, General Qin and General Qin Qing are both in the hunting palace, I am afraid they are also in danger."
Qin Yong hesitated for a moment and said, "Without the emperor's will and the general's military talisman, if the last general dispatches troops privately, he will be guilty of death."
Xiao Shunzi sneered and said, "A death penalty? Now that both the emperor and the general are in the enemy's hands, if General Qin still wants to hold back, I'm afraid I won't be able to regret it."
Qin Yong said firmly: "I will send someone to investigate, please forgive me for not being able to send troops immediately."
Xiao Shunzi lowered his head, his eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he knew that if he used force, it would arouse Qin Yong's disgust, and he would not be able to rescue the hunting palace in time, but now every moment passed, the son would be more dangerous. After a long time, Xiao Shunzi took out a bag from his arms, handed it to Qin Yong, and sighed, "General Qin, please take a look at what's inside."
Qin Yong took the kit and opened it. His face suddenly turned pale. Inside was a silver hairpin and an ordinary jade pendant. He trembled and asked, "You, how can you have these two things? This is the hairpin from my mother and the jade that my mother gave to my brother Liu Hua. Are you trying to threaten General Ben?"
Xiao Shunzi said wearily: "We never like to use this method, but now we have to use it. Liu Hua's real name is Hua Liu, and he is my son's subordinate."
Qin Yong's body was shocked, and he said viciously: "Liu Hua, he is your fine work. I never thought that King Yong would care about such a small person as me."
Xiao Shunzi said lightly: "General Qin is too modest, and the general attaches more importance to you than Qin Qing. Qin Qing prefers the prince and has a close relationship with Fengyi's family. My son is worried that the general will abandon his always neutral position. That's why I arranged people to be by the general's side. The general is a close confidant of the general. If there is any movement in the Qin family, the general will not let Lingtang worry about it. The son doesn't want to disturb the general, so I installed someone by your side. And the son is very optimistic about you. He said that your talent is better than Qin Qing, which is why he asked Hua Liu to come to you. Hua Liu is one of the eight horses around the son. If it is not an important person, the son will not let him. He was watching.
Qin Yong's eyes were a little more gloomy, and he said coldly: "You are saying that the young man I love as much as my mother is a liar and a meticulous craftsman."
Xiao Shunzi sighed and said, "That's not the case. In fact, before I left this time, I went to see Hua Liu, and he begged me not to hurt Lingtang anyway. He said, he knows that he can't do anything about you, but Lingtang Treating him like his own life, he is willing to accept any punishment in exchange for us not embarrassing the court. So he brought these two things just to keep us from disturbing the court."
Qin Yong felt a little relieved. Although Li Shun said there was no evidence, he just felt that this person didn't bother to lie at all. Some people are relieved to put away the kit. He will not think that Li Shun's words mean that his mother will not be threatened, but at least he can be sure that Li Shun is not someone who kills casually, but Li Shun's masters Jiang Zhehe Yong Wang is not such a person. But what if he refuses to send troops
Seeing Qin Yong's worried look, Xiao Shunzi said coldly, "I know it's a little embarrassing for you to send troops, but at least if someone from the Hunting Palace comes to tell you what to do, you can't obey."
Qin Yong frowned and said, "If it is the emperor's decree and the general's military talisman, do you want me to refuse it?"
Li Shun said coldly: "If you are unwilling to do this, then I have nothing to say."
Qin Yong raised his head and saw the clear murderous intent in Li Shun's eyes. He said helplessly, "I will send someone to greet my uncle first. If everything is normal, I will not send troops even if you persecute it."
Li Shun's expression became very cold. He had long known that Qin Yong was not someone who could easily threaten. Now he can only try to get the best results, so that Qin Yong will not easily obey the orders from the hunting palace, then his The goal has been basically achieved, and if Qin Yong sends people to the hunting palace, then the abnormal situation will be discovered soon, so although it is a day late, there is still a chance to rescue the son. Now I only hope that the son and King Yong will both be Can live in peace.
He looked at the sky and said lightly: "If you don't send troops at this time tomorrow, I can only offend you."
Qin Yong said coldly: "I know that Your Excellency is strong in martial arts, but I will never do anything about rebellion. If my people don't find anything abnormal, even if Your Excellency uses force, I will not surrender. I have an army of tens of thousands here. , If your Excellency is in trouble, Qin will inevitably die, and Your Excellency will be buried with him."
Xiao Shunzi smiled coldly and said, "Prepare me accommodation and food, I'm already very tired."
Qin Yong reluctantly said loudly: "Someone." Several personal guards entered the big tent. Qin Yong said sternly: "Prepare him a single-person tent, follow his instructions, and remember that without the permission of this general, he is not allowed to step out of the tent."
Xiao Shunzi smiled lightly, stood up and walked out, saying as he walked, "There is only one day and one night, so General Qin should hurry up and send someone."
Qin Yong sighed and said, "I will immediately send someone to the hunting palace to greet the general."
At dusk on September 21st, the Hunting Palace was now fully controlled by Fengyimen. Although Xiaoshuang Palace was still under the control of the emperor, everyone knew that as long as Fengyimen launched an attack, the emperor would not be spared. However, Fengyimen also has its own difficulties. If the emperor dies, King Yong can use the name of righteousness to punish King Qin. Therefore, Li Yuan's life must be saved so that he can complete the great gift of surrender. Therefore, Fengyimen dare not push too hard. However, Li Yuan was in an unprecedented disadvantage. Although he came to the Hunting Palace this time, he brought a lot of guards, but compared with Fengyimen, he did not have an advantage. Under the control of the forbidden army managed by Fengyimen, Li Yuan and others were all cut off from the outside world, and the generals of the forbidden army who were still loyal to the emperor had been called together by Wei Yingjiao, and they were all under house arrest, without the command of the generals. The forbidden army did not dare to act without authorization, so Li Yuan, who clearly held the supreme imperial power of Dayong, had no way to convey his will through the palace wall. Even if Li Yuan could send guards out to give orders by force, but under the storm of Fengyimen, even if Li Yuan saved his life, then Concubine Changsun, Concubine Yan and Princess Changle would not be able to escape. Balance, before the external situation has not changed, there will be no movement in Xiaoshuang Hall anyway.
In Xuanhua Garden, King Qi was lying on the soft couch with a light expression. Qin Zheng walked in and waved his two trusted maids to step down. For Li Xian's safety, she did not agree to let the Fengyi Sect disciples come to monitor Li Xian. Instead, let the two maids trained by him take care of Li Xian. She took off her sword and sat on the chair, her eyes full of confusion. For a long time, she saw that Li Xian refused to open his mouth and wanted to ask, so she had to smile bitterly: "Don't you want to know the situation of the mother and the concubine?"
A cold light flashed in Li Xian's eyes, and he said, "Mother concubine abides by the way of women and will never betray the father and emperor."
Qin Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "As the lord said, the mother and concubine chose the emperor without hesitation. The concubine does not understand, for a mother, isn't the son the most important thing? Is your life and death honor and disgrace, the mother and the concubine do not will take it to heart.”
Li Xian smiled lightly and said: "For a wife, is there anything more important than being loyal to her husband? The father is the husband of the concubine and the monarch of Dayong. How could the concubine betray him?"
Qin Zheng retorted: "But didn't the empress betray the emperor, and why women must be loyal to their husbands, while men can have three wives and four concubines and be happy."
Li Xian looked at Qin Zheng's accusing eyes and couldn't help but smile, remembering that when he first met, this woman also liked to argue, but the tenderness disappeared immediately, and he didn't want to argue about these things, so he said: " How is Your Highness the Crown Prince, now that the second brother is out of the siege, I am afraid that the Crown Prince is already very distressed?"
Qin Zheng's expression changed, and he said, "Senior Sister Wen brought thousands of people to hunt down King Yong, no matter how powerful they are, they can't escape, but what should you do? After the crown prince ascends the throne, if you think of today that you are unwilling to escape. I'm afraid that your position as a prince will also be unstable."
Li Xian glanced at him lightly and said, "But Li Hanyou and the others asked you to be a lobbyist. Didn't you take my military charm, why can't you move the army?"
Qin Zheng looked a little embarrassed, and after a while, he said: "It is naturally possible to dispatch troops, but several of your trusted and beloved generals said that they would not be willing to surround and destroy King Yong's army unless you were in the army in person. You know that King Yong is on the way. If you are willing to write a letter in your own hand, if King Yong really joins his subordinates, if you don't have your help, then the outcome is still between the two. Your lord, now you have made peace with him. We are in the same boat, don't you still refuse to obey?"
Li Xian's expression changed, and he said after a moment: "Let me meet the prince, if we negotiate properly, I will write this letter to you, you should know that there are secret words between me and those subordinates, you can't imitate me letter."
Qin Zheng said with a hint of joy: "If the lord is willing to obey the destiny, the concubine will have nothing to do." Li Xian smiled lightly, and his expression was even more mocking.
