- But he's not going to interrogate her right here. After today's incident, he wanted to wipe his eyes and take a second look at the military department that he hadn't supervised for more than half a year. And although one of the three officials who supervised the affairs of the Hengtai Pavilion neighborhood came at this time, he was suspicious of this person.

Although Bian Shuhe has ordinary political achievements, he is only in charge of some ceremonial orders, but he is in charge of the temple sacrifices, he is in charge of the big festivals and national ceremonies, he is in charge of the ceremonial rites of the state, he is in charge of the army and the sacrificial wine, and he is in charge of the people's autumn harvest and worship the sky...... He seems to be in charge of a lot of things, so he often has to deal with officials of various ministries, and no one can tell which officials he has a deeper relationship with, and no one has a strong reason to say that he has a personal affair with that official.

Wang Chi remembered that many years ago, the woman who didn't like to coil her hairpins, only liked to loosen her hair cut to a shoulder-length length, and liked all kinds of snacks, but she didn't eat too much, once said with a hint of disdain: "An official who does not aim to cultivate into an officialdom is not worthy of being an official of the Ministry of Rites." ”

At that time, he also specially asked his beloved woman: What kind of fairy fruit are fritters, which seem to grow for a long time, and it seems that the older the better?

So, he had the opportunity to taste a food fried by his beloved woman: fried dough sticks. And through this experience, he knew that the kind of process dù that wants to fry raw fritters to be scorched and old, but not paste, is a test of people's cooking skills.

In addition, old fritters are really a kind of food that is not delicious, but it is a pity to lose it.

And a person like Bian Shuhe, although he can't do any practical things for himself, there are few such people in the officialdom. Lubricate the diaphragm. Liaison and cooperation, organization and situation, all need to be handled by such people. Their faces are old enough, they are kind to everyone, and they are patient in everything.

-- Sometimes you ask him a question, and he doesn't know anything, and some things come to him, and in the end he can't do it, and the time is wasted.

For the chief guard of the forbidden palace, Shangguan Ying, Wang Chi pardoned him on the spot. He left the palace in the afternoon. Originally, he took the initiative to hide from the internal security team. Of course, Yu Shangguan Ying is not responsible.

On the other hand, Shangguan Ying's actions today, he learned the news quite quickly, and knew that he was called Li Gai, which would make his right to walk in the Hengtai Pavilion block much smoother. Maybe this will reflect that he will be a little cowardly in the face of big things. But he was only told to be in charge of the guard of that part of the palace. It wasn't for him to order hundreds of thousands of soldiers to go to war. It was enough to have his mind now.

Of course, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites Bian Shuhe said a bunch of words of pleading, Wang Chi was not in the mood to seriously discuss today's matter with him at all, and after a few perfunctory words. The only one that was implemented was to ask him to go to the household department to allocate money for the repair of the damaged "Yuwu Pavilion". Whoever let the other two chief officials not be there at this time, of course, he will do the errands.

Thinking that he had to deal with the group of "iron roosters" in the household department again, Bian Shuhe's mood was a little depressed, but of course he couldn't show it in the slightest. Today, His Majesty suffered such a slight insult, which damaged the emperor's prestige, and he actually did not get angry, which was already a great forgiveness for those present.

Wang Chi finally summoned the silk merchant who was about fifty years old to him, and gave a few careful instructions, all of which were trivial matters, and the merchant listened very carefully, and could not help but feel a little hot at the end. The buildings in the Hengtai Pavilion block were damaged, but His Majesty did not let the merchants pay the money, and the funds for the reconstruction were allocated from the state treasury.

In fact, although this museum area is only an agent for this businessman, he can't get anything from the operating income, but if anyone has this relationship, the industrial chain activities arranged outside the museum will be much smoother.

This is a glamorous hat, and the brilliance it exudes is still considered a profit, which is the face economy. So in the end, he runs the business in this neighborhood, and even if His Majesty doesn't give him a fortune, he still earns a lot of money, and he earns quite a lot.

With this profit, even if His Majesty wants him to pay out of his own pocket at this time, but just rebuilding a small two-story teahouse, what kind of big deal is this?

Wang Chi seemed to see a certain enthusiasm in the eyes of this businessman, but without waiting for the businessman to take the initiative to ask for instructions, he said gently: "The Hengtai Pavilion block was originally an industry of the national dynasty, and since every benefit it generated was used by the people, then now that it has a loss, it is only natural that it should allocate money from the treasury to repair and use it for the people." ”

Hearing Wang Chi say this, the old merchant in silk clothes thought about it for a while in his heart, and finally opened his mouth to ask for instructions: "Then, the food needs in the repair process will be fully borne by the little old man." ”

"What does this have to do with you?" Wang Chi didn't even want to throw this little burden to the businessman, Zhengse said: "The old merchant has been working hard for a few years to run this pavilion area, although he went voluntarily, but the dynasty has never allocated a penny to you for this matter in recent years, how can you ask you to hurt the normal loss of the museum area?" ”

Having said this, Wang Chi raised his hand slightly, beckoned the old merchant in silk clothes closer, and then said in a slightly lower voice: "If this rule is broken, if there is anything in the future, it is inevitable that someone will make a reason to report it, but it is to ask you businessmen to pay money." In the long run, who will dare and who will be willing to take on this burden for me? What's more, just to build a small teahouse, the treasury is not so weak. ”

When the old merchant heard this, his shoulders shook slightly, and he quickly nodded in response, not daring to say anything more.

After some instructions with the three officials and the three officials in charge of today's affairs, Li Gai had already rescued the two guards. The thirteenth and fourteenth guards had been trained and cultivated by Li Gai before they were selected as palace guards, and they were seriously injured at this time, and they were immediately sent to the Commander's Mansion by Li Gai for treatment.

The water convoy prepared by the guards in the yamen of the Hengtai Pavilion block has also arrived, and the open flames inside and outside the teahouse were quickly extinguished, but the walls of the houses became more fragile under the sudden cold, and the last section of the remnant wall also collapsed completely.

After the masonry cooled down a bit, fifty guards from the Hengtai Pavilion block were assigned to participate in the cleanup of the building debris. It's the height of spring, and the Assassins are guilty of unforgivable sins. However, their bodies had to be cleared out and buried deep in the earth to avoid the risk of disease.

In addition, Li Gai plans to clean up all these corpses and transport them back to the Commander's Mansion for a closer examination, and may be able to find some clues from the corpses that can be used to solve this assassination case.

When the thirteenth and fourteenth were pulled out of the rubble by the guards, they were still alive, although they were dying. Kyoto Prefecture has excellent medicinal herbs, and there are plenty of doctors, so even if a bone is broken, it will be healed.

Ah Tong was not injured. It's just that a pair of hands have burned off a layer of skin when they rummaged through the rubble just now. But he, along with the two seriously wounded guards, was sent to the Commandery's Mansion by his close followers. Li Gai will remember the credit of this person, and at the same time, when he goes back later, he will also ask this person about something.

As for Ruan Luo, who has fallen into a deep coma and is about to wear himself down to the point of losing his human appearance. When arranging for someone to send those three attendants to treatment. Li Gai frowned. In the end, he ordered Ruan Luo to be sent to Yiyeju.

The matter at hand was temporarily over, and Li Gai returned to the tent and stood beside Wang Chi.

All of the Assassins were either shot by a hidden weapon in the scuffle. Either they were buried alive in the later fire of the teahouse, and their last breath of life was extinguished by the scorching smoke and fire—the only one alive among them was the woman lying on the ground in front of the tent at this time, bound like a cocoon by dozens of extremely fine silk threads.

Do you drag her to the yamen of the Criminal Department for trial, or do you pull her to the execution room in the Commander's Mansion to be tortured, or do you ...... here?

Li Gai glanced down at Wang Chi and did not speak.

Wang Chi lowered his eyelids slightly, as if he was resting, but there was only a pair of tables and chairs under the tent, which was too simple and really not a good place to rest. In addition to the unfavorable environment, the brocade dress he was wearing was also dotted with charcoal and stains, and the appearance of him sitting in the line of sight of hundreds of pairs of eyes was really a mistake in the identity of the emperor.

But he didn't speak, and Li Gai, who was standing beside him, didn't ask much, let alone urge him to return to the palace. Li Gai didn't speak, and none of the others present dared to say more than half a word.

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites saw that His Majesty's splendid civilian clothes were stained with charcoal in many places, and he had a pimple in his heart.

He is a relict of the previous dynasty, and has 15 years of experience in the previous dynasty, which is two years more senior than in the new dynasty. He clearly remembered that although the last emperor of the previous dynasty did not make any achievements in political achievements, in terms of caring for his honorable wings, it was much more delicate than the emperor of the new dynasty who was sitting in front of him now.

If it was the emperor of the previous dynasty who was facing today's incident, not to mention how much anger he would inevitably suffer when he arrived, it was very likely that he would be punished and punished, but only that the emperor of the previous dynasty would take great measures to clean himself after his anger subsided a little, summoning hundreds of palace people, and tossing incense and bathing for ten days and a half months, and then stopping the dynasty for a few days...... What is like the current ......

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites thought silently in his heart while hesitating, not knowing whether he should be reminded at this time when His Majesty seemed to be meditating.

After today's incident, His Majesty has not been angry or angry with his subordinates, but according to the experience gained by Bian Shuhe, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, who has been observing words and expressions in the court and in the yamen for many years, he only feels that His Majesty can still restrain his mood from getting angry for something, which does not mean that His Majesty has no anger in his heart.

Bian Shuhe really wanted to do something to maintain His Majesty's dignity and demeanor, but he was really worried, afraid that he would happen to hit the righteous mouth of the angry eruption.

As for Shangguan Ying, the chief guard of the Forbidden Palace, he pleaded with His Majesty just now, and was quickly pardoned by His Majesty, so he should be more relaxed at this time. But looking at the expression on his face at this time, standing straight like a lance, he was standing behind the side of the round-backed chair, and it was obvious that he couldn't relax.

Even if His Majesty pardoned him verbally, and so many people present heard it, and with his behavior and character observed by His Majesty for several years, he would never go over old accounts afterwards, but for him, the guilt of dereliction of duty still existed. And His Majesty did not change the brocade clothes that had been stained by phlegm because of his dereliction of duty, and the sense of guilt in his heart did not stop accumulating inch by inch.

Should we speak out?

Shangguan Ying's mood also came to a crossroads, but his hesitation was slightly weaker than that of Bian Shuhe, because he hoped to share his worries for His Majesty, and he was a little more loyal to the Lord than Bian Shuhe.

But today, he didn't have time to say the loyalty that he had finally decided on after thinking about it for a long time.

Because His Majesty spoke first.

Slightly lowered his eyes, as if he was resting and recuperating, but also like Wang Chi who was contemplating something. Raising his eyelids slightly, he opened his lips and said two words: "Go back to the palace." He pronounced the words very low, as if he was sighing as he spoke.

Li Gai understood, just as he helped him out of the ruins just now, and Ping Ping stretched out a hand, holding a thin layer of undetectable Yingying air in his palm.

Wang Chi glanced sideways for a moment, and then also stretched out a palm and covered it flat. With this strength, he rose from his round-backed chair.

He stood up, no matter how far or near he was, whether he was an officer or a soldier. They all fell down on one knee.

And when he was about to step out of the big tent. He had just picked up his front foot, and before he could fall down, there was a sound of "booming" neat footsteps on the street not far away. When everyone heard this, they saw a large group of foot soldiers running forward.

Shangguan Ying, the chief guard of the forbidden palace, looked at this battle at first glance. I just thought it was someone from the military department who came. But after settling down and taking a closer look. He recognized the figure of Yin Jiang Chan of Kyoto Prefecture from the front of the infantry phalanx.

Jiang Can rushed here, but he didn't ride a horse all the way. He is not a martial artist, and his body is limited. The last leg of the road was roughly carried by the two lieutenants on the left and right shoulders, and they dragged and dragged along the way. Of course, it's not that he didn't want to come, so he was dragged hard, he really couldn't run.

When he was still a hundred steps away from the large army tent that had been temporarily erected in front of the ruins, he only saw the corner of the tent in the corner of the Kyoto Prefecture, Yin Jiangcan, who already had an idea in his heart, and His Majesty was definitely in that tent.

And when he was close to the big tent fifty paces away, Jiang Can's line of sight was finally enough to see the people under the tent clearly, and once again determined the position where His Majesty was standing, his face was full of complex expressions of self-blame and fear. At this moment, he deeply realized what a test of shame it was to show such a variety of expressions on his face after running for several miles on foot, and in a physical state that was about to die.

He couldn't see his face at this time, so he experienced a new feeling while ignoring a more important thing.

-- In such extreme circumstances, it is impossible for a person to put on these expressions perfectly, unless these feelings are really from the heart.

When he was still about ten steps away from the two people standing in the center of the officers and soldiers kneeling under the big tent, Yin Jiang Can of Kyoto Prefecture finally gritted his teeth secretly, shook off the two lieutenants who were running with his left and right arms around him, bent his knees weakly, and knelt out towards His Majesty in the tent.

Of course, the two lieutenant generals knew what Master Jiang meant by shaking his hand, and while they hurriedly let go, they did not continue to run forward, and knelt down on the spot.

"Plop" knelt down in front of His Majesty, and Jiang Can, the Yin of Kyoto Prefecture, couldn't cry anymore, salivating and snotting - in fact, he ran too fiercely along the way, and was provoked - after whimpering a few times, Jiang Cancai's voice was broken and he shouted hoarsely: "Your Majesty, the sinner is too late to save the car, although the sinner is unforgivable......

Wang Chi had just been buried in the rubble for a while, and at this moment, the inexplicable internal injuries that erupted in his chest and abdomen began to faintly haunt him again, prompting him to feel a little weak. Just as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites thought in his heart, although Wang Chi was not angry at this time, his mood was indeed not much better.

He looked at the chief executive of the imperial capital who was kneeling in front of him, this person seemed to be gasping and about to vomit out his lungs, but he looked at the expression on this person's face, but he suddenly felt a little bored in his heart.

But this trace of personal affection was quickly suppressed in his heart. He didn't want to have too much trouble with this Lord Yin at this moment, this place, including venting his negative feelings.

Because he was restraining his feelings, as soon as Wang Chifu spoke, his voice still revealed a hint of coldness: "Forgive whose sins, can a person say it?" ”

When Jiang Can heard this, his shoulders shook slightly.

Nanzhao was a dynasty with strict laws, but ...... Some of His Majesty's henchmen and officials have also done things like cutting first and then playing!

Jiang Can was cautious about saying anything more, but Wang Chi was too lazy to say more nonsense, so he only waved his hand lightly: "Let's be even!" ”

"Xie Majesty xià......" Jiang Can hesitated slightly, and finally stood up straight. And until this time, he still had not gasped for breath in his chest, and he really wanted to breathe a sigh at this time, but after a quick glance raising, he dispelled this thought.

Ignoring the rhetoric prepared by the Kyoto Prefecture Yin at this time, and without giving any more instructions, Wang Chi continued to walk outside the big tent. Behind him, hundreds of officers and soldiers "huhulala" got up one after another.

Dozens of guards trained by Li Gai personally gathered around the emperor and walked ten paces away. The two hundred guards of the Forbidden Palace, as well as the hundreds of soldiers brought by the Yin of Kyoto Prefecture later, were followed by Shangguan Ying. The hundreds of guards in the Hengtai Pavilion block were at the end, and they had no right to set foot in the forbidden area of the palace, and at most they had to stop escorting the emperor out of this block.

Kyoto Prefecture Yin Jiang Can followed behind the emperor with a somewhat stunned look in his eyes, he was a little incomprehensible, no one called a chariot for His Majesty just now? What the hell just happened? Jiang Can was a little suspicious of the news he had heard from his subordinates about the emperor's assassination in the Hengtai Pavilion neighborhood.

And just when the word "chariot" appeared in Jiang Can's mind, hundreds of steps away from the street, a large group of people came.

In this team, there are more than just foot soldiers. Infantry, cavalry, shieldmen, and crossbowmen are all stored in it. But the most conspicuous thing in this group was the eight-horse six-wheeled chariot covered with a golden brocade drapery...... It's empty!

Jiang Can's heart was slightly relieved, just waiting for His Majesty to get into the chariot, he didn't have to follow so closely, or he didn't have to bear the pressure on his heart all the way to the palace on foot. You can withdraw halfway.

Compared to Jiang Can, when he saw the Imperial Brigade, the focus was on the car. Wang Chi saw the group of people rushing towards him. It was the first time I saw a young man at the front of the angry horse whip.

The second prince Wang Hong!

Wang Hong's clothes were slightly messy, his face was a little pale, and the hand holding the horse's reins was faintly protruding. The hand holding the whip was wrapped in thick white gauze, and in order to hold the whip in his hand, the wound wrapped under the white gauze had cracked, and blood oozed out of the cloth.

It is always easy to feel warm to see the person closest to him after just experiencing a thrilling adventure, Wang Chi's heart softened slightly, and then he saw a dazzling color on the hand of the second son holding the whip.

His eyebrows twitched rapidly, vaguely distressed, and silently said: This stupid child.

The second prince, Wang Hong, saw his father walking with help immediately, and his heart was also tight. Before the horse could steady, he jumped down and ran to his father despite the numbing pain from the sharp impact of his ankle on the ground.

"Father!"

"Why are you here?" Wang Chi raised his hand and held it on the wrist of his second son's injured hand, and saw that there was also a layer of fine sweat on his forehead, and he couldn't help but admonish again: "The injury on his hand has not healed yet, so he rushes like this, and he doesn't know how to take care of his body." ”

The second prince, Wang Hong, didn't care about these at all, and didn't seem to feel the pain of the wound on his hand cracking and bleeding again, he just saw his father, first carefully examined it with his eyes, and then grabbed his father's hand and asked anxiously: "Father, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." Wang Chi smiled slightly, and looked at the face of his second son, who was already weak, and his face was slightly pale, so he smiled and reproached: "Why do you still have to ride a horse when you came with a chariot?" If you go back like this, your mother should be anxious again. ”

After being reprimanded, Wang Hong was in a relaxed mood, and said slowly: "Erchen came here to welcome his father back to the palace with the wishes of his mother. ”

"Okay." Wang Chi nodded, holding his second son's wrist with a little force, "You come up too, let's go home together." ”

Wang Chi's words specifically mentioned the word "home", and the other meaning in this sentence is very clear. The second prince, Wang Hong, heard this, his eyes were slightly hot, and he didn't say any more nonsense on the ceremonial scene, just like the son of an ordinary family when he heard his father's call, he responded very kindly, followed his father's footsteps and got into the car together, and sat side by side.

Leaving Li Gai's hand holding a strong palm, although Wang Chi sat on the spacious and comfortable imperial chariot, and no longer had to expend the strength that had become a burden on his current tired body to maintain his standing posture, he still did not feel relaxed at the moment. There was chaos in his mind, and the hand he held on his second son's wrist suddenly tightened.

The second prince, Wang Hong, felt a sudden bone-splitting pain in his wrist, and the green tendons under the thin layer of skin on the back of his hand were even more prominent, but he just frowned, then took a deep breath and endured the pain.

Silently exhaled, he looked sideways at Li Gai, who had just helped his father into the car, and was still standing beside the chariot at this time, and said calmly: "Commander Li, please go with me." ”

Li Gai understood the meaning in the eyes of the second prince, and nodded slightly.

Immediately afterwards a guard led the horse, and he stepped on it, and took the whip from the guard in his hand, but did not use it, but only shook the reins. The horse's walking speed is controlled in line with the pace of the imperial chariot, and his one man and one rider always walks on the side of the imperial chariot.

The group walked in the direction of the palace, leaving behind the ruins of the "Yuwu Pavilion" and the only female assassin left alive in today's assassination operation.

The Kyoto garrison commander Li Gai escorted the emperor back to the palace, but he only took one shadow guard and five swordsmen, except for one shadow guard, two short sword guards and two shield guards who were the first to escort several wounded people to medical treatment, and five short sword guards and eight shield guards were left at the ruin site.

Obviously, Rigai took this female assassin very seriously. Because when Li Gai had just arrived near the "Yuwu Pavilion" that was already on fire, he left a short time before making a move at the woman, and quietly observed and speculated on her. He believed that the female Assassin was most likely a minor leader among the Assassins, and he was eager to hear some valuable information from her.

The Assassin "clean-up" work in the inner city of Kyoto has been going on for almost half a month. Because the process of action is deliberately low-key. So it didn't have much impact on the lives of the city's residents. However, for the sweepers, the harvest in these ten days was not ideal, as all the remnants of the Assassins that could be searched were corpses. Those who are not corpses have escaped.

But today. Finally, I got a job. It's not the kind of dead soldier who can casually lose his life for the killer organization.

At the same time, Li Gai also had a preparatory consideration in his heart, to keep the female assassin alive and send her back to the Commander's Mansion to be held and imprisoned pending trial. In addition to preventing her from trying to kill herself halfway, she also has to guard against the possibility that on the way back, there are her peers who will kill her.

In the affairs that Li Gai took over, whenever there were two things related to death and life, the two extremes of leaving the mouth alive and extinguishing the mouth were often criss-crossed, which was also due to his years of training, and his way of thinking was also somewhat accustomed to jumping between the two assumptions at any time.

If it weren't for the fact that he was going to send the emperor back to the palace, there would definitely be no more forks in the way, and Li Gai would definitely put the female assassin in his sight, and personally send her back to the Commander's Mansion without leaving at all, so that she could make an exception and taste the treatment of the emperor before being interrogated.

And although Li Gai had more important things on his shoulders and couldn't give the female assassin a ride, he also left more than half of the guards he had carefully trained, plus the officers and soldiers of Kyoto Prefecture were also summoned by him, so the team escorting the female assassin back to Kyoto Prefecture was also lined up with hundreds of people.

This battle was a real battle, and it was several times more than the officers and soldiers who were sent out to detain prisoners on the day Wan Defu, the former official of the Ministry of Justice, was beheaded three years ago.

Three years ago, it seemed that the officers and soldiers who escorted the prisoner cart to the court were sent to the court because of the lack of dispatch, so that Wan Defu, a prisoner on death row, was stabbed to death by several killers on the way to death before he was carried to the place of death by the prisoner car, causing him to eat two more times than beheading.

On that day, seeing that Wan Defu would inevitably die, it seemed redundant for the killers to do so. But only a few officials of the Criminal Department who secretly interrogated Wan Defu knew in their hearts that this death row prisoner still had something that should be spit out and swallowed, so it was up to him to see if he could let go of his mouth after seeing the guillotine. That's why someone has to kill him, even if it's just a little faster for him to die.

Today, it was out of concern that Ligai had sent more men to escort a female Assassin into prison. Thinking that Wan Defu was more or less interrogated in prison back then, and died on the way to execution, for the interrogator who still had a trace of expectation, the loss was almost negligible. But look at this female assassin, the trial hasn't started yet, so you must hurry.

However, there are always many variables in the world that cannot be controlled by manpower, and even many strategists who are accustomed to manipulating events as their specialty are often caught in the middle of events and control the door of instability.

Li Gai felt that the manpower he had arranged for the escort was already too sufficient, even if he encountered a killer who jumped out halfway to kill him, it was enough to deal with it. The worst result may be that the soldiers on his side will be slightly damaged, but with his own trained personal soldiers and attendants in the team, this kind of personnel loss should also be able to be quickly charged.

But what Li Gai never expected was that the soldiers he sent to escort the female assassin were indeed attacked by the killer on the way, but the killer who came was only one person, and it was also a woman.

The woman was not dressed in black and covered her face with a black cloth, but she dressed as an ordinary woman, walked towards the escort of hundreds of people, broke the necks of a dozen soldiers with her bare hands, killed people without spilling half a drop of blood, and then took the female assassin away.

Murder is for her. It shouldn't be that hard.

But she took the female assassin alive with her.

It's not that a sword is going to kill her.

As he was about to leave the palace and return to the palace as one of his guards arrived at the palace and told him about the chaotic battle he had encountered on the way to escort the female assassins.

As he finished the last word after listening to the servant guard, the bone china teacup in Li Gai's hand had already turned into powder in his palm.

"A group of ......" Li Gai was furious, and he almost re-exported the word "rice bucket".

However, at the thought of Wang Chi resting in the warm pavilion on the south side of this garden, he narrowly suppressed his voice. The explosion of anger collided with the sudden extreme restraint, which provoked the rhythm of his breathing, which was as steady as a mountain rock, to jump a little.

The close guard who had paid tribute to him had already changed his face in fright, and knelt on the parquet stone floor with a "bang".

nbsp; After a moment of silence. Ligai called the guard to his feet. Shen said: "Immediately ask the painter to draw the face of the female thief, and the faces of the two female thieves will be painted, and the whole city will be searched." This time the search operation was no longer carried out in secret, and the order was sent to the City Gate Division. The soldiers who defended the city and reported for rest today all arrived at their posts. Deploy additional guards as fast as possible. Once there is an abnormality. Cloth all over the world! ”

"Yes!" The close guard hurriedly answered the order, but just as he was about to retreat to give the order, he turned his face back again. Xiaoyi asked: "Great Commander, is it captured alive or killed this time?" ”

"If you catch it alive, you will be counted as meritorious. If you can't catch it, the old and the new will be counted together! Li Gai's eyebrows furrowed angrily, "Go to the Commander's Mansion and send out all the people in the five groups." The official wants to see how the two female thieves escape! ”

When the guard heard this, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. He knew the methods of the five groups, and he didn't say anything more at the moment, and took the order to run.

Before leaving the palace and returning to the Commander's Palace, Li Gai had to see Emperor Wang Chi again. Because of the strange internal injuries on Wang Chi's body, he had to make sure again before leaving. This time, he estimated that he would not have time to enter the palace again in a day or two.

Try to put his steps very lightly, and when Li Gai walked into the warm pavilion where Wang Chi was resting, the first thing he saw was Wang Hong, the second prince, who was also walking lightly.

Wang Hong made a silent gesture towards Li Gai, who turned around and walked out of the warm pavilion side by side with him. After stepping out of the room, Wang Hong waved away the palace people who followed behind him.

Walking slowly between the zigzag garden corridors, and unconsciously walked to the hexagonal pavilion where Li Gai had just sat on, Wang Hong saw the broken porcelain slag on the stone table and the tea on the table at a glance, a trace of surprise slipped in his eyes, and he asked: "What disturbed Uncle Li so angry?" ”

Leaving the eyes of the people in the maid's palace, Wang Hong naturally changed his official title to Li Gai.

A few years ago, when Li Gai was Wang Chi's shadow guard, he was also the "hide and seek uncle" that Wang Hong saw most often, and the two formed a lot of love in those years in the palace.

For this, Wang Chi, as the emperor, is of course happy to see it. Li Gai is his brother and friend of Jin Lan, if he does not become the emperor, even if he achieves the position of the general of the border, it is very likely that his son will worship Li Gai as his righteous uncle.

As for Li Gai himself, when there were no other servants around him, he didn't need to have too much responsibility for identity rules, so he also calmly accepted the second prince Wang Hong's closeness to his nephew. He has no wife or elder at home, no children under his knees, and he is middle-aged, and sometimes he thinks about this matter, and then transfers some feelings to the young man in front of him who he has watched grow up.

Regarding the rescue of the female assassin, Li Gai was not prepared to say too much to Wang Hong, but he still left everything to do by himself.

After a somewhat reluctant smile, Li Gai only picked one or two words about the female assassin, and then his gaze stopped on Wang Hong's injured hand a few days ago, and when he spoke again, he diverted the topic: "Old injuries become new injuries, but you must not be careless." ”

The second prince, Wang Hong, said with a smile: "It has been re-bandaged by the imperial doctor, and they have also told it like this, so it will not be in the way." ”

"Your complexion is not very good, it is still the time you were injured a few days ago, and you hurt your vitality. It's best to heal the injury at once and not recur it like today. Hmmm......" At the end of these words, there was a hint of hesitation in the tone of Li Gai, who had always been concise and clear, "If you are injured on your hand like this, you should hang your forearm with a strap, so that you can get better faster." ”

It had been years since he had been injured in a fight, and his memory of such experiences had blurred a lot.

But Wang Hong laughed when he heard this, nodded and said, "The imperial doctor said the same thing, but I think it's too unsightly to have a cloth ring around your neck." Wouldn't it be enough to just tuck your hands into your sleeves? ”――

(To be continued......)
