Seeing his younger brother's mischievous appearance, Li Hong only felt that his forehead twitched: "What do you know?" Don't say that you forgot all the words that your father had told you before......"

"I haven't forgotten! That's why I just remember, that's why I say things like this! Although the voice was small, Li Xian had a righteous face: "My father said, when you have the heart to speak out in everything, you need to know the root of it, and then export it...... I remember! ”

Li Xian imitated his father's appearance, and the old master nodded as if he nodded, and then said in a second voice: "So Brother Xian knows, next, he will help his father and the emperor - no matter what, before the queen mother returns to the table, this matter must be taken care of!" ”

Li Hong was about to make fun of him, but when he heard his last sentence, he smiled instead, looked at this little brother with some novelty, and blinked: "Why do you cook before the queen mother returns to the table?" What are you going to do? ”

"Because the queen mother can't be involved in this matter! Otherwise, she would have been angry with these fools for a long time. That's why the elder brother or the father and the emperor will try so hard to separate the queen mother, right? ”

Li Xian raised his eyebrows, looked at his brother, and then looked at the courtiers with different expressions and different thoughts, and snorted at the tip of his little nose: "A bunch of other thoughts, even I can see it, it's not stupid, what is it?" ”

Li Hong was even more surprised, and looked at him with a lot of inquiry in his eyes: "How do you know that my father and I have the heart to separate the queen mother?" ”

"If I don't open my mouth, the eldest brother will also ask someone to release Xiaobai (Li Hong's little white lions) out to stir up the feast, and then send them back to the backyard with the queen mother?"

Li Xian smiled: "Big brother, you don't know the smell of those pieces of meat hidden in your sleeve...... I smelled it before you knocked on my head. ”

was told by his younger brother, Li Hong was inevitably embarrassed, hehe smiled, threw his sleeves behind him, and when he turned back, he had already placed a Li Xian's fist-sized, air-dried lotus leaf bag in his palm, lying on top of a brocade hand.

Without waiting for Li Hong to say anything, Li Xian didn't look at it, stretched out his little finger and pressed it with force, and a hole was broken, revealing a small piece of meat that was finely chopped and dried. A vague smell emanated from the pieces of meat.

"Why are you ......" Seeing his younger brother so fast, Li Hong was a little anxious for a while.

"Big brother, if you delay a little longer, the queen mother will come back. When the father and the emperor don't mention it, do you want to watch the queen mother being bullied by those people again? ”

Li Xian blocked Li Hong's mouth in two sentences, and after thinking about it, he also smiled casually: "It's the eldest brother who is confused - no matter how shrewd the hundred opera workers arranged by the father, I am afraid that they will not be able to drag the queen mother." ”

Then, with a force in his hand, he grabbed the lotus leaf bag. When it was opened again, the lotus leaf bun in the palm of his hand had been broken into powder and mixed with small pieces of meat, piled up on top of the brocade.

Li Hong and Li Xian looked at each other and smiled, Li Hong carefully wrapped the bag of things in his hand, and at the same time, Li Xian suddenly pointed to the lower left of the hall and jumped up and shouted: "Ah! ”

This pack jumps and screams, and it is simply a perfect match for the score, which is wonderful.

After a shout attracted the eyes of the whole hall to the fingers, Li Hong took advantage of the opportunity to get up and look, covered it with wide sleeves, and stuffed the bag of things into Li Xian's waist.

Feeling that Li Hong had stuffed something into his waist, Li Xian shouted even more, "What something!" What is it! He shouted all the way and chased after himself.

Immediately, there was a little confusion in the temple. And Li Hong also called a few times in a row to accompany King Lu not to scream, and at the same time quickly glanced at Jing'an, who was standing behind him and saw everything clearly.

Jing'an nodded with a smile, turned around and quickly followed.

All this is long on paper, but in fact, it is only in the blink of an eye, and the atmosphere of the banquet is also chaotic because of the actions of this brother.

In the midst of this chaos, Li Hong also felt two lines of sight that did not take away from their brother from beginning to end.

One naturally belongs to his father, Emperor Li Zhi, and the other ......

Quietly glancing in the direction of Dali Siqing, Li Hong turned around and smiled at Li Zhi, who was also calm.

Li Zhi, who had everything in his eyes, naturally understood his son's smile, and turned his head to Qinghe, who was standing beside him, and made the same smile.

Qinghe nodded, turned around and ordered a few small attendants next to him, and saw that these little attendants should claim to be, and after saluting, he gently called His Royal Highness King Lu all the way, quickly withdrew from the hall with the dust, and followed out from the other side.

"What's going on?"

Your Highness, Di Fang was stunned, and muttered a question. Before Di Renjie could answer him, he heard Li Zhi's voice sound again: "What you saw just now, like a cat?" Mingyun's child is still young, the child's heart is up, don't provoke it to scratch it again - Xuanci (Li Hongzi), you also go and bring Mingyun back! Although the cat is delicate, but the temperament is also so annoying, don't hurt your brother. ”

Li Hong answered yes and got up. When the ministers saw that Li Zhiyou had ordered Li Hongyou to get up, they hurriedly threw away the cups in their hands to give gifts. Li Hong didn't have time to thank him, only nodded, and walked out of the hall with the guards.

"It's ...... This ......" Di Fang couldn't understand it even more, stammering to herself, but her eyes looked at Di Renjie.

"Look, this is the big drama coming." This time, even Di Renjie stared at Li Zhi, who was smiling with interest, and was praised by those ministers, and put on an appearance of watching a play.

Di Fang was about to ask again, but was stabbed back by Di Qing's elbow: "The adults have said to watch the play, do you still want to ask?" ”

grinning and touching his waist, which was stabbed by his younger brother, Di Fang snorted twice, no longer asked, but his eyes understood.

Outside the temple.

Li Hong, who came out to look for his younger brother on his father's order, had just taken two steps when he was startled by a small figure who suddenly jumped out of the shadow of the palace lamp and hugged his waist.

"Big brother!"

"You're naughty...... The eldest brother was startled...... "Seeing that it was his younger brother Li Xian, Li Hong's original defensive spirit relaxed, smiled and reached out to rub his younger brother's round little face, and then said, "How?" They're all coming? ”

"This is natural-the eldest brother's bag of meat is too much, and they all refuse to let go of the virtuous brother!" Li Xian turned around, smiled and pointed to the palace lights under the red shadow, those few heads saw the little master, so they surrounded the two of them and screamed happily Xiao Xuetuan, and looked up at Li Hong with a small face: "Big brother, although the virtuous brother understands that you and your father are protecting the mother, but the next thing, the virtuous brother really can't understand it." ”

"It's okay, you'll understand in a moment." Li Hong patted his little head with a smile, then looked up at the few guards who came out with him, and the few little attendants who followed him together, and after a slight gesture, they each dodged into the dark shadow.

Li Xian looked at their vigorous movements, and couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Huh? So they're all dark guards, right? Big brother, what are you calling the secret guard for? Are there bad people who want to take this opportunity to harm the father and queen mother? That's not going to happen! The queen mother is now alone in the apse, although the father is protected by Jin Wuwei in front of the palace, but he is also ......"

"Peace of mind." Li Hong only said two words, and then stopped the gushing Li Xian. Then, he held Li Xian's small hand with one hand, and the other hand behind him, standing calmly.

It is like a beautiful and handsome jade tree. And the little snow lions around the two brothers also erected their round little ears one by one, vigilantly baring their small and sharp teeth, walking back and forth beside them, and their sky-blue eyes were also shining in the moonlight.

A moment later.

A somewhat strange figure flashed out of the darkness - but it was a secret guard who had left earlier, pretending to be a prisoner, holding a black dress and black pants in his hand, with an ink towel on his head, but the ink towel on his face was pulled down, revealing a strong man who looked a little hideous because of the blood around his lips and his expression of hatred.

"The subordinates see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Lu. Qi Qi two highnesses, ministers and others fortunately did not disgrace their lives, near the Danxiao Palace, and captured 28 assassins. These 28 people all contained highly poison in their mouths, and except for three of them, who had already bitten the poison sac and died due to the suddenness of the incident, the other 25 people had been captured alive and their poison sacs removed. According to what the subordinates saw, these people are all people in the rivers and lakes who have the intention to make profits from this, and they have carefully raised high-priced dead soldiers. However, because the mastermind behind it has not yet been identified, it was brought to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to show it. ”

As the leader of the guards spoke, the other guards had brought the other twenty-four living Assassins with them. Those three who died, it seems that there is no need to bring them here - after all, the prince of a country, with a noble status, and the young King Lu by his side, the secret guards have always been ruthless, and it is not suitable to see.

Even if they brought all the living people, they were not very good-looking in the end, so the young Li Xian was really scared when he saw these people breaking their muscles and bones one by one.

But he was extremely clever in the end, and he understood what the courtier meant that these people had come here with the intention of murdering his father and mother, and he was so angry that he couldn't wait to pounce on him and kick him a few times before he was happy. Therefore, in this way, I don't feel afraid. He just stood there in hatred, gritting his teeth and glaring at the assassins who were still resentful and indignant after they had been brought in.

Li Hong's eyes were cold, and after listening to the report, he didn't look at the assassins who had set their eyes on him, and then evoked a smile without a smile: "They all brought waist cards?" Let the palace guess - it is either engraved with the word 'Xiao' from Lanling, or engraved with the word 'Wang' from Taiyuan? ”

As soon as these words came out, the assassins immediately changed color, and the courtiers were only slightly surprised: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that this is exactly the case. ”

"Good. Then pack them all up and send them to Brother Xun's mansion overnight! There is no need to alarm the father and the queen mother, just say that there is an order in the palace, and the two saints must not be alarmed......"

The secret guards seemed to have been instructed a long time ago, and they did not persuade him to return the matter to Li Zhi's intention at all, but should claim that it was.

Li Hong nodded, and said, "But just sending it to Brother Xun's mansion seems to be too embarrassing for him...... Bore the guards, and then pass a word for the palace, and the steward of the palace of Brother Xun, and tell him to find the place called Yunxiao Pavilion and ask their pavilion master. ”

With a faint smile, the eyebrows of this young prince of the Tang Dynasty, who is always innocent on weekdays, are as dignified as the light of the ice blade: "Tell the steward of Brother Xun's mansion and teach him to ask their pavilion master, as a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, he dared to send these thieves and rats, and took the name of the Lanling Xiao clan and the Taiyuan Wang clan to plot against his father and the palace...... But who gave the guts! ”

"Yes!"

The secret guards responded in unison, and then left with all the assassins whose faces suddenly turned gray and desperate after hearing Li Hong's words.

Watching them leave, Li Hongcai sighed, signaled to Jing'an, who came later, to clean the blood stains in the court, and dragged out the corpses that were hidden in the dark and did not teach Li Xian to see, and then turned his head and looked at Li Xian with a slightly pale face with some concern: "Brother Xian......"

"Brother Xian understands...... You can't mention this, right? In particular, the queen mother cannot be mentioned. These people want to assassinate my father and brother, as well as me and my younger brother, not to kill my mother...... Brother Xian understands. Trying to suppress the tears in his eyes, and the fear and anger after finally understanding what happened, Li Xian nodded firmly: "Big brother don't worry, brother Xian understands." The next thing, the virtuous brother will do well. ”

Li Hong hugged him movingly, then sighed and said no more. After glancing back at the brightly lit apse, the two brothers smiled at each other, turned around and joined hands, and took the little snow foxes back to the main hall.

A moment later, the courtyard was silent again, as if nothing had happened. In the rockery in the middle of the white and clean courtyard, a delicate figure silently walked out.

The girl put down her hands that covered her mouth and nose white, and hugged her body tightly that was trembling so much that she couldn't stop. But when she looked at the direction in which Li Hong's brothers left, it was so hot that it seemed like a fire that could burn at any time.

- Really...... One step ahead of the curve to hide here and wait for him...... It's really good......

Her whole body twitched, as if she couldn't restrain herself, and her face flushed.
