Shuo Ling was about to take off his clothes and take a rest when Mo Li screamed, so he walked over, opened the door and walked out.
"What's the matter?" After coming out, Shuo Ling looked at Li Li and asked.
Li Li said at this time, "Luo Jin is here."
After hearing this, Shuo Ling couldn't help but frown slightly, and then followed Mo Li towards his house.
"See you, Lord Marquis." When Luo Jin saw Shuo Ling coming in, he stood up and saluted Shuo Ling.
Then Luo Jin told what happened in the imperial city recently.
Hearing this, Shuo Ling couldn't help but frown.
Why did it happen to be at this time? Then Shuo Ling asked again, "Where is General Bai now?"
Shuo Ling knew that Bai Zhanfei was impulsive, and he was afraid that Bai Zhanfei would get him involved in order to save Bai Shuangshuang.
No, he had to go back quickly for this matter, but Zi Jin was pregnant now, so naturally he couldn't walk too fast.
So Shuo Ling decided to let Mo Li stay, and he and Luo Jin returned to the imperial city first.
Now that Yang Zixuan had gone to bed, Shuo Ling couldn't bear to disturb him and handed the matter over to Mo Li, who then rode his fast horse to Dongling with Luo Jin.
Early the next morning, Yang Zijin found that Shuo Ling was not in front of the bed. He couldn't help but frown slightly. Where did he go so early
Yang Zijin then put on his clothes and walked outside.
Jiang Wei and Mo Li had already gotten up and guarded the door.
"Where is the Marquis?" Yang Zijin asked Shuoling when he saw Mo Li.
Then Mo Li went back to Dongling first to discuss the affairs of their Marquis.
Hearing this, Yang Zijin couldn't help but feel nervous. Could it be that something happened in Dongling? Otherwise, why would he be in such a hurry
Thinking of this, Yang Zijin raised his head and asked Mo Li, "But what happened?"
"Don't worry, madam." Li Qiye said when he saw Yang Zijin asking.
The more Mo Li said this, the more worried Yang Zijin became.
Then Yang Zijin asked them to come in and talk.
Then Yang Zijin continued, "Tell me what happened."
"Madam, this..." After hearing this, Mo Li couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
However, he still told what happened when Dong Ling came in.
Yang Zijin frowned slightly after hearing this. So the emperor already knew that Shuo Ling was planning to rebel.
Wouldn't that be...
Thinking of this, Yang Zijin couldn't help but panic, and then said, "Quick, get ready and set off immediately!"
"Madam... yes!" Seeing the way Yang Zijin looked at him, Li Li couldn't help but responded.
When Mo Li was about to leave, Yang Zijin asked Jiang Wei, "Where is Uncle Liu and his eldest brother?"
"We're all up and having breakfast." Jiang Wei said.
Yang Zijing nodded, "Well, get ready, we and I will go out."
Dongling at this time.
King Anran, who had received Anqin's letter earlier, had arrived in the imperial city at this time.
Then he arrived at Shuo Mansion. When An Qin saw King An Ran, he couldn't help but happily ran over and hugged King An Ran, and then said, "Dad, you are here."
As he said this, a tear flowed from the corner of An Qin's eyes.
Seeing this, King Anran Yang couldn't help but frown, "What's wrong? What kind of injustice has Qin'er suffered?"
"Qin'er is happy to see dad." An Qin smiled at this moment, wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and then said.
King An Ran patted An Qin at this time and then walked into the room.
"I heard about what happened in the imperial city. Where is Mr. Shuohou? Why didn't you see him?" King Anran asked An Qin at this time.
Si Cha on the side pursed her lips and said, "The Marquis is not in the house. Since the princess married, I haven't seen the Marquis a few times..."
"Si Cha, you're the only one who talks too much!" An Qin interrupted Si Cha before he could finish speaking.
After hearing this, King Anran looked at An Qin and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
"Dad, don't listen to this girl Sichuan's nonsense. Now that dad is here, let's quickly discuss how to talk to the emperor." An Qin said, then changed the subject.
After hearing this, King Anran sighed, "Since the emperor did not take the initiative to trouble us after knowing the news, there must be two reasons. One is that the person did not tell the emperor, but I think this may be very small, and The emperor is waiting for me."
"What should we do?" An Qin asked immediately.
I saw King Anran sighing at this time, "As soon as it comes, let it be in peace!"
At this moment, the guards of Shuo Mansion came to the door and knocked on the door, "Is Aunt An here?"
An Qin then motioned to Si Cha to open the door.
Sichuan walked over and opened the door, then asked, "What's the matter?"
"There was news from the palace just now. The emperor held a banquet and invited King Anran to attend." The guard of Shuo Mansion said at this time.
An Qin frowned slightly at this time, and then said, "I know, let's get down."
It seems that what dad said is true. As soon as the front foot arrived in the imperial city, the back foot came to invite me.
Then An Qin looked at King Anran and said, "Dad, look..."
"Of course I want to go." King Anran said at this time.
An Qin couldn't help but worry now, "But Dad, is this probably the Hongmen Banquet?"
"The matter has come to this, we can only take one step at a time." King Anran said with a sigh.
Now Shuo Ling is not in the imperial city, and now the emperor knows that Shuo Ling has rebellious intentions. If he doesn't go and express his position now, it may be difficult for him to leave the imperial city alive.
Thinking of this, King Anran took a deep breath and walked outside.
study.
"King Anran, please come and be well!" Master Chu Youtian put down the book in his hand and said to King Anran who came in.
King Anran immediately saluted and said, "I have met the emperor."
"Why did King Anran come to the imperial city suddenly?" Master Chu Youtian asked deliberately at this time.
After hearing this, King Anran couldn't help but be startled. The emperor wanted him not to bring trouble on himself. Then King Anran smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I only have one daughter. Now that she is married to the imperial city, some time will come." I miss you so much when I don’t see you..."
"King An Ran is really good at pretending to be confused!" Master Chu Youtian sneered at this time and then said.
After hearing this, King Anran couldn't help but kneel down quickly, "I am scared!"
"I wonder if King Anran recognizes the handwriting on this letter?" With that said, Master Chu Youtian threw the envelope in front of King Anran.
Seeing this, King An Ran picked up the envelope and read it immediately. It seemed that this was the letter that An Qin had been snatched away.
After reading it, King Anran said nervously, "Your Majesty, this is an ignorant little girl. She has long been secretly interested in marrying Marquis Shuo. When she found out, she was afraid that the emperor would do anything to Marquis Shuo, so she wanted to write to me to find a way. .”
"Does King Anran want to find a way? Or does he choose to join?" Chu Shiyoutian walked up to King Anran at this time, and then stared at him and said.
Hearing Chu Shi Youtian say this, King Anran couldn't help but dodge his eyes slightly, and then kowtowed and said, "My heart for the emperor can be learned from heaven and earth, and I have absolutely no intention of rebelling!"
"If this is really the case, is King Anran willing to show his sincerity?" Master Chu Youtian then asked.
King Anran knew that Master Chu Youtian was setting a trap for him, but at this juncture, it was better to deal with it first.
"I am willing!" King Anran said at this time.
After Chu Shi Youtian heard this, he turned around and walked to the table, and then slapped the table, "Okay, how about King An Ran wishing me to eradicate the treasonous thieves when the time comes?"
Then King Anran responded.
After the prince was deposed, he was placed in a house outside the palace.
At this time, more than three days had passed since the prince was deposed.
Unexpectedly, Master Chu Youtian would come out of the palace to find him.
"Father, why are you here?" Seeing Master Chu Youtian's figure, Master Chu Shilan couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Master Chu Youtian immediately sat aside and said, "Do you hate me for deposing you as the crown prince?"
"This matter is because the child is ashamed of his father. The father treats the child like this. The child has nothing to say. The child does not blame the father." Master Chu Shilan said at this time.
After hearing this, Master Chu Youtian smiled and said, "Father knows that someone framed you for this matter, but there is nothing he can do about it."
"My child knows that he will not resent his father." Master Chu Shilan said immediately.
Hearing Master Chu Shilan say this, Master Chu Youtian couldn't help but sigh, and then asked, "Are you still used to living here?"
"Back to my father, I study and write here every day. There is no cumbersomeness in the palace, and my life is quite comfortable." Master Chu Shilan said with a smile at this time.
Afterwards, Chu Shiyoutian said a few shuddering words, and Chu Shiyoutian returned to the palace.
After Master Chu Youtian left, the smile on Master Chu Master Lan's face gradually froze. It turned out that his father knew that he was being framed and acted like this. Originally, he was still hesitant to send troops to the imperial city, but now it seems that it is not necessary!
At this time, Concubine Xiao Shu did not stop, secretly mobilizing the secret guards she had raised for many years.
Just waiting for Master Chu Shilan to rebel with the Lan family!
After traveling day and night, Shuo Ling and Luo Jin finally returned to Dongling.
However, Shuo Ling was not in a hurry to return to the city, but followed Luo Jin to the place where they had moved.
Immediately, Shuo Ling asked someone to notify Zhou Ji and ask him to come. He wanted to know the recent situation in the imperial city.
Late at night, after receiving the news, Zhou Ji avoided the emperor's eyes and walked out of the city.
"Your Majesty, please see me." When he saw Shuo Ling, Zhou Ji saluted him.
Shuo Ling immediately turned around and asked, "Has anything else happened in the Imperial City recently?"
"The prince was deposed, and the third prince's child also died, and King Anran also came to the imperial city." Zhou Ji said immediately.
Hearing what Zhou Ji said, Shuo Ling couldn't help but flash a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "It seems that a lot of things happened during my absence. What did you find out?"
"Since Miss Shuangshuang was arrested, the Emperor has been targeting our Shuo Mansion with several more people. The news was not received in time." Zhou Ji continued.
Shuo Ling nodded at this time, and then asked, "Tell me what you know."
"We have found signs of rebellion by the prince, and Concubine Xiao Shu and others are also secretly mobilizing troops." Zhou Ji said at this time.
After hearing this, Shuo Ling couldn't help but have a wicked smile on his face, "It seems that he can't bear it anymore."
"Master Hou, what should we do next?" Zhou Ji looked at the smile on Shuo Ling's face and couldn't help but tremble all over. It seemed that someone was going to be unlucky and had offended Master Hou.
After hearing this, Shuo Ling hesitated for a moment, and then said one word, "Wait."
"Wait?" After hearing this, Zhou Ji couldn't help but feel confused. However, the Marquis's foresight was beyond his comparison. He just believed in the Marquis, so he nodded anyway.
Then Shuo Ling said, "Find a way to contact General Bai and ask him to come back without causing any complications. As long as I don't show up, Bai Shuangshuang's life will not be in danger!"
