Chapter 1574: Mysterious Letter!
"Bastard! In the land of Chang'an, at the foot of the imperial city, there are assassins who dare to disadvantage my prince and princess! Will someone break into this palace directly in the future and slash at my head with a sword? ”
The palace, the Ganlu Palace, Li Er's angry roar resounded throughout the hall, and the palace maids and eunuchs outside the hall could hear the roar in the hall from a long distance, so everyone in the palace was silent, and no one dared to make a mistake at such a time.
And in the main hall, Liu Dewei, the secretary of Dali Temple, and Yin Hua Wenjie of Jingzhao Mansion, one of these two is in charge of the trial of the Datang Prison case, and the other is in charge of the security of the Beijing Division, and now there are assassins in Chang'an City who openly kidnap Li Chengqian and Changle, it stands to reason that these two people are indeed to blame, so as soon as they learned what happened in Xishi, Liu Dewei and Hua Wenjie sent people to deal with it on the one hand, and on the other hand, they personally entered the palace to ask for guilt!
"The old minister is terrified~! The old minister is guilty~! ”
At this moment, hearing that Li Er said such heavy words, the two old ministers hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.
"Panic? Am I not right? It is said that the capital is heavy and heavily guarded, but my prince and princess only went out of the palace and were attacked by assassins, when did the security of Chang'an City become so chaotic? ”
Li Eryi patted the dragon case, and his face was iron-blue.
"Your Majesty is angry!"
"Your Majesty is angry!"
The two old ministers glanced at each other and could only say so.
At this time, Li Chengqian and Changle are uncertain about life and death, and whatever the two of them say is superfluous, if Li Chengqian and Changle have an accident, the two of them will definitely lose their official positions; Only if Li Chengqian and Changle are lucky, they will be able to make up for their mistakes!
"Your Majesty! Good news! Yong'an Hou and Xuanqing Dao Chang rescued in time, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Princess were all safe! ”
At this moment, a little eunuch ran in from outside the hall and bowed happily to Li Er.
Hearing this, in the main hall, the eyes of Li Er, Liu Dewei, and Hua Wenjie were focused on the little eunuch!
"What? Are Cheng Qian and Changle all right? What about the Assassins? Did Li Zexuan catch the assassin? ”
Li Er leaned forward, his voice could not hide his excitement, at this moment, Lao Li was extremely glad that he deliberately left Li Zexuan for questioning after the early dynasty, otherwise Li Zexuan would have returned to Yunshan at this time, how could he have the time to save Li Chengqian and Changle?
"Back to Your Majesty, when Chief Manager Zhao led people to the West Market, Yong'an Hou and Xuanqing Daoist had already rescued His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Princess from the hands of the assassins, but the assassins fled the scene under the cover of the same party! Now that the gates of Chang'an City have been sealed, Daoist Xuanqing and Chief Zhao are tracking down the whereabouts of the assassin nearby! ”
The little eunuch hurriedly bowed down and replied.
Li Er's face turned cold, and said: "Immediately summon Cheng Qian and Changle back to the palace, and order Niu Jinda to lead five thousand right military guards to assist Zhao Song in searching for his whereabouts from the west of Chang'an City, Liu Aiqing, Hua Aiqing, the two of you each lead the Yazhong Gongren to track down the assassin, and before tomorrow morning, you must give me an explanation!" I want to see who is so bold as to dare to openly assassinate the Tang princess and the prince of the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an City! ”
"Slave obeys!"
The little eunuch bowed down to receive the order, and then quickly exited the main hall to pass the decree.
Liu Dewei and Hua Wenjie turned pale, and arched their hands towards Li Er: "The old minister obeys the order!" ”
It is said that the task that Li Er gave them is not unimportant, you must know that Chang'an City has a vast area, a large population, one hundred and eight squares, and a population of millions, if you want to find an assassin from here, it is almost equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack, but even so, they have to accept this task, because if the assassin cannot be found in such a major event as the assassination of the prince of a country, then their Dali Temple Siqing and Jingzhao Mansion Yin are seriously derelict in their duties!
"Go ahead!"
Li Er waved his hand and said lightly.
"Wait for the resignation!"
The two looked at each other and retreated.
After the two of them exited the main hall, Li Er was alone, walking around the top of the main hall with his hands in his hands, and after a while, a gentle female voice came from outside the main hall: "Your Majesty, how are Cheng Qian and Changle?" ”
Before anyone arrived, the sound came first, and after a while, Empress Changsun appeared in the main hall, Li Er hurriedly turned around and greeted him, took Empress Changsun's hand, and said with a smile of relief: "Guanyin, don't be upset, I just received the news, Cheng Qian and Changle are fine, they are on their way back to the palace at this time, you can see them in a while!" ”
"Are you alright?"
Empress Eldest Sun opened her mouth in surprise, a little incredulous.
Li Er nodded affirmatively and said, "It's okay!" It was Li Zexuan and Xuan Qing Dao Chang who arrived in time after hearing the news and rescued Cheng Qian and Changle from the assassins! ”
"Great!"
Empress Changsun patted Yue Hun Pu, greatly relieved, and then said: "When the concubine heard that Cheng Qian and Changle were assassinated, she was almost scared half to death, but she didn't think that this time it was thanks to Yong'an Hou who came to the rescue, otherwise if these two children have three long and two short, how can the concubine live!" Your Majesty, did the Assassin catch him? Otherwise, if he continues to lurk in the city, once Cheng Qian and Changle leave the palace, they will still be in danger! ”
Hearing this, Li Er's face froze, and after hesitating for a moment, he spoke:
"This Assassin ......"
…………………………
It didn't take long for the news of the assassination of the prince and Princess Changle in the west market to spread, and there were shocked, angry, and indifferent, but then the people learned that the city gates had been blocked, and then a large number of soldiers appeared on the streets of Chang'an City, and they took a portrait and interrogated the whereabouts of the man with the hat on the portrait from house to house.
All of a sudden, the people in Chang'an City were panicked, and the gangsters who usually bullied men and women were all very careful and honest at this time, none of them wanted to be arrested at this critical time, because this was a big case involving the assassination of the prince and the princess.
So regardless of whether the assassins can be caught in this large-scale search operation in the city, anyway, the security in Chang'an City has improved several grades at once because of this large-scale search and arrest operation, and many thugs have been arrested in the prison of Dali Temple!
Li Zexuan rode Dabai and ran quickly in the direction of the palace, and suddenly, a little girl wearing a shabby white dress and a relatively delicate appearance appeared in the middle of the road, Li Zexuan hurriedly strangled Dabai: "Huh~!" ”
Da Bai finally stopped the horse's hooves at a distance of a foot in front of the little girl, but the little girl had no fear on her face, as if she was very confident that Li Zexuan could control the horse.
"Hey! Little girl, you ......."
Li Zexuan was about to ask why this little girl was standing alone in the middle of the road, but before the words were completely spoken, the little girl on the opposite side interrupted: "You are Yong'an Hou, right?" ”
Li Zexuan suddenly said strangely: "Little girl, how do you know the identity of Benhou?" ”
Although Li Zexuan often appears in Chang'an City, and there are not a few people who know him, but the little girl in front of her doesn't look like a native of Chang'an when she hears the accent, well, that's right, not only do local dialects exist in modern society, but also in ancient times, this girl's accent is a bit like that of the Jiangnan area!
Therefore, how can Li Zexuan not be surprised that such a foreigner actually knows his identity?
The little girl smiled slightly, the essence in her eyes flashed, and she said loudly: "When Yong'an Hou rescued the prince and princess in the West City, the little woman was also present, so she naturally knew the identity of the Hou Ye!" ”
Li Zexuan was slightly stunned, and suddenly said: "I see! So what's your name? Blocking Ben Hou's way, what is the matter? ”
When the little girl heard this, she hurriedly and carefully took out a folded piece of paper from the purse around her waist, and said, "Master Hou, the little woman's name is not enough to worry about, someone asked me to hand over something to you!" ”
"Oh~? What is it? ”
Li Zexuan's eyes were fixed, and he hurriedly jumped off the big white horse, took three steps and made two steps, came to the little girl's side, and took the folded piece of paper in the other party's hand, and before he could unfold the piece of paper, the little girl smiled sweetly and said: "Since the Hou Ye has received the letter, the little woman will leave!" Hou Ye rest assured, this letter has never been opened by the little woman! Oh, by the way, this one I found on the tail of that mad cow in Xishi, it should be useful to you, Master Hou! ”
After that, without waiting for Li Zexuan to respond, she put a piece of burnt black bamboo pipe in Li Zexuan's hand, then turned around and left directly, and soon dissipated into the crowd.
