The night was melting, and the stars were twinkling on the dark sky, and the cold wind was blowing, adding a little coolness to the silent night sky, and a black shadow crossed the high city wall, "Huh! With a bang, a dark shadow fell in front of the attic window.

Luochen heard the movement outside the house, waved his hand calmly, and said to the palace maid beside him: "You go down first, the palace is a little tired, without the permission of the palace, no one is allowed to come in and disturb the palace, do you hear clearly?"

"Yes! Princess! Slaves and maids hear me clearly! The palace maid rushed out, and Luochen saw the last palace maid close the door, walked to the window with small steps, and whispered: "Who?"

Zhan Ge clenched his throat, and a hoarse voice came out of his mouth, "It's me?" How? Her Royal Highness the Princess forgot about me so soon? ”

Hearing this man's voice again, Luochen frowned, reached out to open the window, and urged, "Come in!"

With a sharp turn, Zhan Ge jumped down from the window, his feet firmly on the ground, and at this time, the patrol happened to pass by the attic and glanced around.

"How's it going?" Zhan Ge deliberately stood in the shadows, and with the black cloth on his face, except for a pair of eyes exposed, the dust could not see the rest of the place.

Hearing the inquiry, Luochen retracted his searching gaze and said, "Don't worry, everything is arranged!"

The masked Zhan Ge nodded and said, "I hope you don't disappoint me!" The words fell, and in the blink of an eye, the man jumped from the attic and disappeared into the night sky.

Luochen looked at the disappearing figure and pondered, separated from Luochen, and Zhan Ge evaded the patrol all the way to the cell.

The two lanterns hanging at the door shone out the figure of Zhan Ge, and the too quiet atmosphere made Zhan Ge nod with satisfaction, observed the surroundings, and quickened his pace, and sure enough, he saw the guards guarding the cell fainting to the ground, Zhan Ge's eyes flashed a trace of essence, and the corners of his mouth hooked, and he raised his voice and shouted: "Oh no, come on, there are assassins!"

The silent night was broken, and with a cup of tea, footsteps sounded everywhere, and Zhan Ge tapped his toes and left quickly.

"Where are the assassins? Where is it! The head of the guard came sweating profusely, and when he saw that there was no one in the cell, he wondered if he had heard it wrong, so he heard his subordinates say, "My lord, come and see!"

The guards strode forward, and when they saw the guards fainting everywhere, their brows furrowed, and at this time, the palace man in blue robes ran over and said eagerly: "My lord, it's not good, the patrolling guards are gone!"

"What?" The guards secretly said that it was not good, and they hurried to the imperial study.

The Grand Duke, who was guarding the imperial study, looked surprised when he saw the guards coming.

"Father-in-law, I want to see the emperor, an assassin has infiltrated the cell!" After hurriedly speaking, the guard took a deep breath.

"Hey, okay, the miscellaneous family will report to the emperor.

After a while, the eunuch who had just entered walked out and said, "My lord, go in quickly, I heard that an assassin has sneaked into the cell, and the emperor is very angry, you can be careful."

Reminded by his father-in-law, the guard wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Yes!" Thank you, father-in-law. ”

"Don't get in yet!" The old emperor's roaring voice sounded, making the two people standing at the door of the imperial study tremble at the same time.

"The Emperor...... Your Majesty, it is not good for Weichen to take care of him, and please forgive the emperor! Without saying a word, the guards knelt in front of the hall to plead guilty, bowing their heads and not daring to look at the angry emperor sitting on the top.

"How dare you plead guilty? In the middle of the night, you let the assassins enter no man's land, breaking into my palace, what the hell are you eating? The trembling appearance of the guards made the emperor upset, and he waved and said: "For the sake of your merits for so many years, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, go to the criminal department to receive the punishment!"

"Yes!" The guards left quickly, and the emperor sat alone on the empty dragon chair, and during the day, the king of Yongguo's side by side mentioned to himself that those assassins were likely sent by the general, and at night someone dared to break into the prison cell at night, is there really such a coincidence in the world, or is it that those assassins were really sent by the general.

No, you must find out what is going on, rubbing the swollen forehead, the old emperor let the eunuch who was guarding outside in, "Zhanglan, I want to see the second prince." ”

The eunuchs were a little embarrassed, the night was already deep, and if the emperor was infected with the wind and cold, then they would not have enough to cut off ten heads.

The eunuch hurriedly stopped the emperor's movements and said, "Your Majesty, you see that it is getting late now, why don't we see His Royal Highness the Second Prince tomorrow?" In case you get unwell, the minions ......"

"Where is all this nonsense? If you want to prepare, you will prepare, one more nonsense, and be careful that I will kill your dog. For the eunuch's concern, the emperor reprimanded him unappreciatively.

"Yes! The slave went to prepare, and asked the emperor to wait. Quickly instructed the palace people around him to prepare the chariot, and the emperor was going to see the second prince, even if all the palace people moved at night.

Bai Yi was about to rest, but when he heard the palace people say that his father was walking in the direction of his place, he quickly spread out the wrinkled clothes on his body and stood up from the straw mat.

When the emperor saw Bai Yi, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

"Sons see their father, may my father live long live." Bai Yi's voice fell, and he didn't hear the emperor's words to get up, lowered his head, and looked at the flat ground.

There was silence between father and son, and after a moment, the emperor spoke: "Bai Yi, you must have heard about what happened just now, but what do you have to say to your father?"

Bai Yi raised his head, then lowered his head again, and said respectfully: "Erchen doesn't know, Erchen only saw that someone deliberately put the guard in and wanted to kill Erchen, but it was a shame that someone found the assassin and shouted, so he didn't let the assassin succeed, Erchen didn't understand who had such a deep hatred with Erchen, and he didn't understand why this assassin didn't kill the guard, but just knocked the guard unconscious."

Bai Yi didn't say who was going to kill him, but between the lines, the finger was pointed at the general, the cell has always been in charge of the general, and the sudden assassin assassinated Bai Yi, which shows that the means are ferocious, and it is so ferocious that the assassin did not hurt the guards, which is really incredible.

The emperor listened to Bai Yi's words, and never spoke again, knowing that Bai Yi felt that his legs were unconscious, only to hear a voice from his head, "Spread my will, release the second prince from the prison from now on, and no one should talk about this matter." ”

"Yes!" The eunuch who followed the emperor replied, the emperor didn't care about Bai Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, turned his head and left, and the eunuch walked into Bai Yi respectfully, "His Royal Highness the Second Prince has worked hard, and the emperor is doing this for your own good." ”

The corners of Bai Yi's mouth hooked up a wry smile, "Thank you, father-in-law, if there is nothing else, His Royal Highness will go back to the palace first." ”

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

The emperor returned to the imperial study and ordered with a gloomy face: "Go!" Call me the general! ”

"Yes!" The eunuch who hurried back in a hurry didn't catch his breath before he turned around and asked the general, and finally found out where the general was in Princess Luochen, and the eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly rushed to Princess Luochen's palace.

The general was drinking Luochen and drinking, and when he drank the wine in his hand, the general wiped his mouth and said, "Luochen, do you think this masked man can succeed?"

Putting down the wine glass, Luochen looked relaxed: "Of course it will, we have taken care of him, so we will not fail!"

"Good! Cheers to the good news to come! The general's face was delighted, and he raised his glass again.

"That's right! Cheers! Luochen drank the clear stream, and heard the sound outside, Liu Mei frowned and asked the palace people guarding outside, "What's going on outside?" Why is it so noisy? ”

Soon after, I heard the palace people's reply: "Princess, the eldest duke beside the emperor is here, saying that the emperor urgently summoned the general."

The general's movement of raising his hand paused, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at Luo Chen, and said to the door: "General Ben will go over, and please wait for a while."

Luochen rushed to a trace of uneasiness, grabbed the general's sleeve and said, "Why did my father summon you at this time?" Could something have happened? I'm going with you! ”

Comfortingly, he patted Luochen's hand, and the general shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

"Hmm!" Luochen followed behind the general, quickly opened the door, and the eldest duke, who was guarding outside, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he saw the general.

"See Her Royal Highness Princess, General! General, hurry up, don't let the emperor wait. ”

The general bowed his head slightly and walked beside his father-in-law and asked, "Father-in-law, can you leak one or two for you, it's so late, what is the emperor summoning you for?"

The father-in-law shook his expression lightly, "This...... The miscellaneous family is not clear, and it will be known when the general arrives. ”

The Imperial Study.

"Your Majesty, the general and Princess Luochen are here." Hearing that Luochen was also coming, the emperor raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Call them in."

"Yes, general, princess, the emperor let the two in." The general and Luochen knelt down and said in unison: "Weichen (son) see the emperor (father)."

"Dust up!" Letting his daughter get up, the emperor turned his head and asked the general loudly: "Someone sneaked into the palace tonight, broke into the cell, and deliberately charmed the guards, trying to assassinate my second prince Bai Yi, I don't know what the general thinks when such a big thing happens."

Luochen was anxious in his heart, seeing that the general shook his head slightly at him, not allowing himself to defend him, and he also knew in his heart that if he spoke for the general at this time, it would make his father more suspicious of them, so he frowned in distress and looked at the general kneeling on the ground worriedly.

The general couldn't believe that the masked man would fail, and secretly scolded the masked man in his heart, covering the look in his eyes, and the general said coldly: "The emperor forgives the sin, someone broke into the cell, it is indeed a dereliction of duty on the part of Wei Chen, but Wei Chen doesn't know who dares to assassinate His Royal Highness the Second Prince, maybe ...... They didn't want to assassinate His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it is very likely that His Royal Highness the Second Prince has other accomplices, and the purpose of breaking into the prison tonight is to rescue His Royal Highness the Second Prince, so I hope the Emperor will be aware of everything. ”
