After entering the city, Li Luo's whereabouts were reported to the palace by the soldiers of the Ducai battalion early on, Li Luogang and everyone returned to abandon the famous building not long after, not waiting to comfort the tearful Xue Xue a few words, the palace has come to the front of the building, it is the Wanlong Emperor who ordered Li Luo to enter the palace quickly.

Li Luo smiled bitterly, called Su Xue to settle the generals to rest, the horse did not untie the saddle, and left the abandoned building with the palace guards and went to the palace.

Changming Palace, outside the palace gate.

One person looks at it from a distance, it is the father-in-law who serves in the palace, and it is rare to wait outside the palace like this.

Li Luo frowned slightly, he didn't know what kind of situation it should be in this palace gate.

When Gonggong Chang saw Li Luo, he said in a sharp voice: "His Royal Highness Nine has arrived." ”

Li Luo walked up to Grandpa Chang and bowed with a smile, and Grandpa Chang hurriedly returned the salute.

After the transmission, there was no response in the hall for a long time, the two looked at each other in amazement, and Chang Gonggong shouted again: "Your Highness the Nine, Dingtianhou has arrived." ”

After drinking this time, I heard a voice from the hall: "His Royal Highness Xuanjiu has entered the palace." ”

Li Luo smiled slowly, and was about to move, when Gonggong Chang suddenly whispered, "Your Highness the Nine, be careful." ”

Li Luo nodded and walked in.

In the Changming Palace, Emperor Wanlong sat on the dragon chair, his face was expressionless, the court officials and important ministers on both sides, Taifu Ling Shutong, Taibao Chun Prince Li Chengye, the young master and uncle were idle, the young master Xu Gui, the young guard Qin Haihou hussar general Ying Guanqi, Tsukasa Zaizhang Rongzheng, the new Situ Nie Fenghong, Zongbo Yang Wanli, Sima Gu Lianying, Si Kou Du Shizhe, Sikong Qiu self-examination are all in the hall, and there are more than a dozen important officials who discuss political affairs, all of whom are noses and mouths and look at the heart, and do not look into the hall.

In addition, there are still the three princes Mingwu King Li Xuanxu, the fourth prince Ji Wang Li Xuanying, and the seventh prince Ying King Li Xuanci are on the left and right, with solemn expressions, and when they saw Li Luo entering the palace, they just glanced at it and turned their heads, silent.

"Chen Xuanlou see the emperor, long live my emperor." Li Luo saluted respectfully.

"Flat." Emperor Wanlong replied lightly.

Li Luo thanked him, stood up and stood under His Royal Highness, and said in a harmonious voice: "Xuanlou has seen my father and all the lords and brothers. ”

Li Chengye nodded lightly, glanced up at Emperor Wanlong, and only heard Emperor Wanlong shout coldly: "Li Luo, are you guilty?" ”

"Xuanlou is guilty."

Emperor Wanlong was stunned for a moment, heyed, and said, "What kind of crime do you want?" ”

Li Luo replied calmly: "Xuanlou violated the decree and did not obey it, the holy will ordered Xuanlou to return to Beijing earlier, and Xuanlou stayed in Nanfu for a long time and did not return, which is a crime." ”

"I'm very angry about this matter, but Zhuocheng is far away from Nanfu, and the decree may be suspected of being late, so I can't blame you, what's the crime?" Emperor Wanlong said this, he already had the intention of explaining for Li Luo, and the prince of Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty already understood that although the formation was large today, I am afraid that Emperor Wanlong had the intention to make a show.

Everyone in the court has their own thoughts, but they don't know what they are secretly planning.

"Xuanlou left the capital only to escort Concubine De Niangniang back to her hometown, but in the end, she left Concubine De Niangniang alone in Yizhou, so disobeying the emperor's decree is a second crime."

"You know the opportunity very well, hum, I read that you have a meritorious escort to the south, and the king of Muzhou rushed to Yizhou in time, although there is no achievement in returning to the north, but it can be regarded as a merit and demerit, I will not punish you for this matter, but there is no merit to receive."

"Thank you for the Emperor's grace."

"Anything else?" Emperor Wanlong's tone was heavy, and he asked slowly.

Li Luo exhaled lightly and said calmly: "Xuanlou, as an important minister of the imperial court, and also the prince of Dagan, privately befriending the feudal ministers is guilty of three crimes. ”

The hall was condensed, and everyone looked at Li Luo together, and this time he was afraid that it was the real disaster.

Emperor Wanlong's expression was also tight, and he said in a deep voice: "You also know that this matter is not appropriate, why do you insist on going south?" If there is no convincing statement, hmph, I will punish you for fornicating with the powerful ministers, and you will be guilty of speculation. ”

Taifu Ling Shutong glanced at Li Chengye and said softly: "Your Majesty, even if His Royal Highness the Ninth goes to Nanfu, he may not necessarily have the heart to fornicate with the King of Nan, is this crime heavier?" ”

The fourth prince, Li Xuanying, said lightly: "Taifu's words are reasonable, but Xuanlou, as the prince of Dagan, is also a well-known auxiliary general of my Dagan, and his words and deeds should be a model for the Dagan court.

At the same time, I heard that Xuanlou was very happy with the king of the south when he was in Yangnan City, and when he left the city, the king of the south was sent off thousands of miles, and the courtesy was so high, presumably there was no one else who could get such courtesy from the king of the south except for his father, but he didn't know what the people of the world should conjecture. ”

Ling Shutong listened, this matter has already involved the dispute between the royal court, and he no longer speaks, and he should be smiling.

Emperor Wanlong's expression was cold, and he shouted coldly: "What Xuanying said is not groundless, Xuanlou, tell me, how to explain this matter?" ”

Li Luo smiled lightly and said slowly: "Xuanlou acted improperly, and it was also my idea to go south, and it had nothing to do with others, and Xuanlou was guilty." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a whisper in the hall, and Li Xuanci shouted in a low voice: "Ninth brother, be cautious." ”

Emperor Wanlong was also stunned, and said slowly after a while: "So you admit the crime of fornicating with the ministers?" ”

Li Luo was speechless, and only after a long time did he respond softly: "Xuanlou has no intention of fornication, but there is a suspicion of fornication, and there is no difference between admitting it and not recognizing it." ”

"Okay, good, good Li Xuanlou." Emperor Wanlong laughed, and for a while, everyone in the hall couldn't guess what Emperor Wanlong's words meant, but a few people were happy and a few people were worried.

Emperor Wanlong looked at him and said in a deep voice: "I heard that you went to Luofengpo?" ”

"Luofengpo?" Several people in the hall glanced at Li Luo suspiciously, and then looked at Emperor Wanlong on the dragon chair, only a few people understood, and looked at Li Luo meaningfully, either sighing secretly, or breathing a sigh of relief, and also guessed that this matter was going to be decided.

"Yes."

"Okay?"

Li Luowei groaned and replied softly: "It's okay." ”

Emperor Wanlong stood up, got off the chair, and the ministers hurriedly bowed to salute.

Emperor Wanlong walked in front of Li Luo, looked at Li Luo carefully, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Li Luo's arms, and said loudly: "Since you have been there, why don't you say it?" ”

"If it's inconvenient, I won't say it."

Emperor Wanlong's eyes were hot, and he said loudly: "Just for the sake of inconvenience, do you know what to do if you lead the crime of fornication?" ”

"This is also light and heavy."

"Light and heavy? At that time, even if I want to punish you lightly, I'm afraid it will be difficult. With that, Emperor Wanlong let go of Li Luo's arms, glanced at everyone around him, and said in a deep voice, "My sister, Princess Funing, I think some of you Aiqing still remember." ”

Uncle Young Master said sadly: "Back to the emperor, Weichen knows about it, when Princess Funing married in Nanfu, unfortunately died young, it is said that the place where she was buried is Luofengpo outside Yangnan City. ”

"Yes, Funing died of a serious illness less than a year after he arrived in Nanfu, and it should have been nearly ten years now.

This time Xuanlou went south, looked at my Dagan's deceased princess, for the face of the Dagan royal family, willing to accept the guilt and unwilling to talk about this matter in the court, that's the case, there are still people inside and outside the court who want to self-destruct my Dagan's Dingtian long sword, you say, should I punish Xuanlou?
