Inside the Hung Palace.

After listening to what Li Shuang'er said, Li Ji was shocked, but also understood many things. Of course, except for the few words that Shen Liancheng said to himself in front of his head......

"Presumably Chen Guogong has a plan on his side." Li Shuang'er said, "Brother, you should have made plans early!" ”

"Your Highness!" The people from the outer palace suddenly walked in hurriedly, "The head of the inner court, Si Lu Temple, led people to surround the Jinghong Palace!" It is said that it is the dictation of the Son of Heaven......"

"Not good!" Li Ji stood up suddenly.

It wasn't until this moment that he knew the purpose of Shen Liancheng entering the palace in such a hurry.

Li Shuang'er was already a little panicked when she heard that the Inner Court Division had led people to surround her Shocking Palace, and when she heard Li Ji say "not good", she was even more frightened and couldn't sit still, and asked in fear: "Didn't you leak the news?" But the palace people around Qiao Meiren, I have already deducted it. ”

"Knowing this, and knowing more than we know, there is Shen Aman." Li Ji said that he took a step and walked outside the hall.

When the people of the Lu Temple of the Inner Court Division saw him, they gave him a deep salute and said, "If you offend the general, it is really the dictate of the Son of Heaven, and the old slave doesn't know why." Presumably, the Son of Heaven will give you an explanation. Don't embarrass the old slave, the old slave doesn't know anything, just does what he is told. ”

Before Li Ji could say a word, the Lu Temple man finished saying everything he had to say. It was superfluous for him to say anything.

Li Shuang'er came out and wanted to reprimand the people of Lu Temple. Li Ji stretched out his hand and stopped her.

"Someone!" Seeing this, the people of Lu Temple immediately instructed the people below, "Close the gate of the Jinghong Palace, and no one is allowed to enter or leave." ”

"Yes."

Immediately, he saluted Li Ji and Li Shuang'er respectively, and said in a loud voice: "If you offend Her Royal Highness the concubine and the general, the old slave will retire first." ”

After he left, the door of the Hall of Thrilling Hung was also squeaked shut.

"This old minion!" Li Shuang'er scolded in a low voice, and then asked Li Ji urgently, "Brother, what should I do now?" ”

"I didn't do anything, what are you afraid of?" Li Ji calmed down.

So saying, he went into the temple. When Li Shuang'er followed up, he was already in a hurry to refill a cup of tea.

Seeing that he was so calm, Li Shuang'er's nervous heartbeat calmed down a little. thought to himself, it was just that he didn't convey the news to the Son of Heaven in the first place, and the Son of Heaven would not have banned himself and his younger brother from death in this palace based on this alone.

She sat down and asked, "My brother has a city in his heart, so he has nothing to fear?" ”

"Sister," Li Ji pondered, and didn't look at Li Shuang'er, and asked rhetorically, "Why do you think Shen Aman ignored Chen Xiang's plan and confessed this matter to the Son of Heaven?" Is it really for the sake of the Son of Heaven to treat her with grace and the affection of a playmate when she was a child? Could it be that this friendship is enough for her to choose to betray Chen Xiang? Or was this Chen Xiang's idea from beginning to end? ”

"It's all this time, do you still have the heart to wonder what she thinks?" Li Shuang'er was a little dissatisfied, "No matter what she thinks, the important thing now is that we should take some measures." Younger brother ......" she lowered her voice, "You have a heavy army, it can be said that the military power of the Great Zhou is in your hands, why don't you take your sister and escape?" ”

The implication is the opposite! There is no need for her to explain, Li Ji can also understand.

Li Ji looked at her for a moment, but said, "Sister is too anxious. Now that the Son of Heaven is still alive, I have no justifiable reason. ”

"I'm afraid that if there is a justifiable reason, others will be the first to get there!" Li Shuang'er said hurriedly, "On Prince Rong's side, I'm afraid there has already been a move." poisoned the Son of Heaven, maybe he was behind the scenes! ”

"Sister forgot, during the full moon banquet of the four princes, what did the Son of Heaven say when he was drunk?" Li Ji's mind was still pondering Shen Liancheng's motives, "If the Son of Heaven has a good and bad power, I am afraid that many people will support the four princes to ascend the throne." Shen Aman, could she be planning for this? A while ago, when the Son of Heaven was sick, she became more and more diligent when she went to Luan Qing Palace...... Maybe she's been planning this since then. ”

Li Shuang'er was also silent, and after thinking for a long time, she was shocked: "You mean, Shen Aman wants to curry favor with the Son of Heaven and let the Son of Heaven appoint the fourth prince as the prince as soon as possible?" ”

"That's right."

"No way!" Li Shuang'er became excited again.

"Sister, don't worry." There is no need for Li Shuang'er to say more, Li Ji is also very firm on this issue. He even said: "Even Prince Rong can't be the fourth prince." ”

When he said this, Li Shuang'er was relieved. After thinking about it, she asked again, "So what should we do now?" ”

"Wait."

The Son of Heaven came to the Jinghong Hall in the afternoon. Inevitably, the Li sisters quibbled, and Shen Liancheng also came with him.

Seeing Shen Liancheng, Li Ji was very happy in his heart. He wanted to see what she could say in front of him!

As soon as Li Shuang'er saw Yu Wenlie, she started the crying scene she had prepared a long time ago, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by letting the people of the Inner Court Division surround the concubine here?" The concubine really doesn't know what she has committed......"

"I don't know what I did?" When Yu Wenlie saw Li Shuang'er who was so coquettish, he suddenly felt so angry that he wanted to kill her!

He really thought how good she was to him earlier, and he was willing to suffer the knife of that beautiful woman for himself, and he was willing to kill for her...... In the end, knowing that he was about to die, he was impatient to find his brother to plot the future!

"Your Majesty, I really don't know about the concubine! I hope Your Majesty will make it clear. Li Shuang'er still insisted.

"King Lone asked you, what is the matter with finding your brother to enter the palace?" Yu Wenlie forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and asked coldly.

"The concubine is ......" Li Shuang'er pretended to hesitate, and after a pause, she said: "This morning, a palace man from Qiao Meiren's side ran to the concubine and exposed Qiao Meiren, saying that His Majesty had a strange poison in his body, and it was Qiao Meiren's doing. The concubine thought that Qiao Meiren was deeply favored by His Majesty, how could she do such a thing? But I don't dare to be careless, so I naturally want to investigate......"

Hearing this, Yu Wenlie sneered and laughed, interrupting Li Shuang'er. However, he still pressed his temper and ordered: "Go on! ”

The concubine thought that Qiao Meiren had gotten permission early in the morning and went out of the palace to visit relatives, so she called her younger brother to enter the palace and wanted him to send someone outside the palace to keep an eye on her...... But the concubine had just finished explaining to her younger brother when someone from the Inner Court Division came. ”

"That's weird." Seeing that Li Shuang'er was about to cry again, Shen Liancheng hurriedly interrupted her in a cold voice, "Since the general has just gotten the news and hasn't had time to leave the palace, how can the people from the General's Mansion follow Qiao Meiren and go to my mansion?" ”

Hearing this, Li Shuang'er obviously panicked.

Li Ji was unhurried and explained: "Your Majesty, you know that Weichen and Chen Guogong have always been at odds. Wechen ...... Weichen will not hide it from His Majesty. In fact, Weichen often asked the house slaves to be near the Chen Guogong Mansion and pay attention to the movements in between.

Saying that, he also glanced at Shen Liancheng intentionally or unintentionally, as if he had sent someone to pay attention to the movements of Chen Guogong's mansion, but in fact, he was to pay attention to her movements.
