"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Chang'an outside begs to see you!" In the Ganlu Palace, an attendant came in quietly, and after glancing at the imperial case above, Li Er, who was reading a book carefully, bowed slightly and said carefully.

"I'm not free..."Hearing the words of the waiter below, Li Er's head was not raised, he turned the page with his hands, his eyes continued to stare at the page, and he looked impatient at the waiter below: "Let him wait outside!" ”

"Whoa!" Hearing Li Er's words, how dare the chamberlain say anything more, he sighed slightly, did not dare to linger at all, bowed down and sighed lightly, turned around and retreated from the Manna Palace.

"Master Hou, Your Majesty said that he is not available, let Master Hou wait outside!" Coming out of the Ganlu Palace, the inner attendant went straight to the side outside the Ganlu Palace, and when he saw Zhao Chen standing there, basking in the sun leisurely, looking completely fine, the inner attendant suddenly showed a wry smile on his face, and said helplessly to Zhao Chen.

"Then just wait!" Hearing the words of the waiter, Zhao Chen also showed a smile on his face, as if he had already guessed it, shrugged his shoulders helplessly at the waiter, changed to a more comfortable position, and continued to squint his eyes and bask in the sun.

In fact, for Li Er's reaction, Zhao Chen was already mentally prepared when he came to the palace, the bearded guest was originally recommended by him, but now, the bearded guest is missing, and he didn't return to Li Er in time, Li Er's ability to not catch fire is already good.

It's morning, the autumn sun hangs high overhead, the sun is warm, and when it is sunburned on people, the whole body is indescribably comfortable, if there is no lingering smell of smoke and dust in the nose, it will be more perfect.

As Li Er said at the beginning, the current palace is really a bit of a miasma, even if you stand on the side of the Ganlu Palace, from a distance, you can see a large cloud of black smoke slowly floating from the Xuanwu Gate, covering the originally magnificent palace in a black smoke miasma.

The black smoke is naturally the credit of the smelting workshops behind, just the black smoke, the key is that when this black smoke penetrates into the nostrils, the eyes hurt, not to mention that when inhaled into the lungs, the chest looks like it is about to explode, and it is indescribably uncomfortable.

"It's time to move!" Choked on the black smoke and sneezed a few times, wiped his nose with a handkerchief uncomfortably, and couldn't help muttering with emotion in his mouth.

Hearing this, the waiter nodded vigorously at Zhao Chen, looking like that, he was already fed up with the black smoke, and he wished that Zhao Chen's words fell, so he immediately demolished the black workshop behind.

"By the way, why didn't you come here today and didn't see your father-in-law?" Wiping his nose, Zhao Chen seemed to have just remembered that when he came to the palace on weekdays, he was like a shadow, and he didn't see his shadow for most of the day, which was really a little unreasonable.

"Master Hou, I'm afraid that I won't be able to see the old man today!" Zhao Chen just asked casually, however, the waiter next to him, who was originally basking in the sun with him, suddenly changed his face, and he looked like he was obviously about to speak and stopped, and he said hesitantly.

"Out?" Hearing the words of the waiter beside him, Zhao Chen didn't take it to heart for a while, but frowned slightly, put the handkerchief in his arms, and asked the waiter with a little surprise.

The old eunuch is one of the best masters in the palace, and he is the most trustworthy person in Li Er, so it is natural that Li Er will often be sent on business trips, for example, the last time he was in Qinling, Li Er sent the old eunuch.

Thinking that the old eunuch was sent by Li Er on a business trip, Zhao Chendang didn't have the heart to ask again, standing there with the two of them, basking in the sun, chatting with each other, and after about an hour, Li Er, who was originally in the Ganlu Palace, passed on the oracle and allowed Zhao Chen to meet him.

Well, since the big boss has spoken, let's hurry up and go to see it!

In the Ganlu Palace, because the climate has become cooler, a stove has already been lit in the main hall, and at this time, Li Er, who was originally sitting behind the imperial case and reading, has also moved to the stove.

When Zhao Chen entered, Li Er was fiddling with the sweet potatoes roasted on the stove, but as a result, he was accidentally scalded, shook his hands vigorously, and made a shushing sound in his mouth, so that Zhao Chen, who happened to see this scene, almost didn't hold himself.

"Your Majesty!" Pretending not to see Li Er's embarrassment, Zhao Chen stood a few steps away from Li Er, bowed slightly, looked like he had obviously made a mistake, and said to Li Er.

"Is it that if I don't receive the report from the hundred horsemen, you plan to keep it hidden?" Hearing Zhao Chen's voice, Li Ertou didn't raise his head, took the handkerchief handed by the waiter and wiped his hands, and then continued to play with the sweet potatoes on the stove, and asked Zhao Chen without replying.

Li Er's tone of voice sounded very unhappy, and when he spoke, he didn't even look at Zhao Chen, however, hearing Li Er's words, Zhao Chen couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, it was obvious that Li Er didn't take this matter to heart.

However, despite this, on the surface, he still pretended to be a mistake, and said respectfully to Li Er: "Weichen knows his mistake, this matter Weichen should have reported to His Majesty a long time ago, but... It's just that this matter was originally guaranteed by Wechen, so Wechen wanted to wait until this matter was settled, and then report it to His Majesty......"

"Oh, what's the whereabouts, let me hear about it!" Li Er's tone was sour, and when he heard Zhao Chen's words, he still didn't raise his head, picked up a roasted sweet potato casually, peeled it with his hands, and asked Zhao Chen: "It won't be until it's out of control that you will report to me, right?" ”

"No!" As soon as he heard Li Er's words, Zhao Chen immediately shook his head and denied it, and hurriedly assured Li Er: "In this matter, Weichen still believes that Zhang Zhong firmly encountered some accident, and there will never be any other right and wrong!" ”

Of course he understood the meaning of Li Er's words, it was nothing more than worrying that the bearded guest would take the people and ships to Nanyang and start a new stove, so Zhao Chen was very sure of it.

"Okay!" Hearing Zhao Chen's affirmation, it seemed to make Li Er's mood a little better, and after hearing this, he said to Zhao Chen: "Since you promised, if you really have a lot of life by then, then you will go and cook it yourself!" ”

"Wechen obeys!" Hearing Li Er's words, the stone in Zhao Chen's heart finally settled down completely, and immediately, he bowed slightly at Li Er and said loudly.

"Sit down!" Nodding at Zhao Chen, then pointing to a chair opposite, chewing sweet potatoes in his mouth, Li Er said to Zhao Chen casually: "Do you know about the military academy last night?" ”

"The Academy?" Zhao Chen, who had already put down the stone in his heart, had just hit the chair with his buttocks, and was about to start dividing Li Er's sweet potato, but when he heard Li Er's words, he raised his head blankly and said blankly at Li Er.

In the past few days, because of Qin Yuyan's production, he has almost stayed at home, anyway, there is Lao Qin staring at the military academy, and there is daily training in the military camp, so it doesn't matter if he goes or not.

"This is good, as the vice president of the Military Academy, I don't know anything about the Military Academy, and in turn, I want to tell you!" Li Er was extremely annoyed by Zhao Chen's blank expression, his eyes glared at Zhao Chen, and he opened his mouth with a sneer, which had the intention of immediately terminating Zhao Chen.

"These days... Weichen was busy with the affairs of the house...... "This is even if it is a dereliction of duty, it is good to have a face, at this time, knowing that something happened in the military courtyard, in front of Li Er, Zhao Chen also had to quickly stand up, bowed slightly to Li Er and said."

Naturally, he was very annoyed in his heart, in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, there was probably only this one in front of him, who dared not take his official position seriously, but of course Li Er also knew that Qin Yuyan had just experienced a catastrophe of life and death.

Therefore, after hearing Zhao Chen's words, his eyes couldn't help but glare at Zhao Chen fiercely, and sighed slightly, probably too lazy to accuse Zhao Chen, sat there, frowned slightly and said: "Last night, a group of uninvited guests came to the military academy and injured many people, even a few of my worshippers also injured a few people!" ”

"Uninvited guests? Who is so bold? Li Er's tone was unhurried, seemingly casual words, but in Zhao Chen's ears, it was tantamount to thunder, when he stood up in shock, looked at Li Er in amazement, and opened his mouth in disbelief.

The military courtyard is the top priority of the Tang Dynasty, and there are many weapon workshops in it, including gunpowder and gun depots, all of which are in it, and naturally, the guards inside are also quite strict, and this kind of thing is almost no secret.

I really can't figure it out, in this situation, how can someone still break into the military academy, it is clear that they are impatient, and most importantly, who would be so bold and pay attention to the military academy?

"Dead man!" Compared with Zhao Chen's shock, Li Er seemed extremely calm, sitting opposite Zhao Chen, peeling a sweet potato with his hands, and said to Zhao Chen without raising his head: "There are almost thirty or forty people, all of them are specially trained, half of them broke through the guards, and half of them went straight to the inner courtyard, the goal is extremely clear!" ”

"The inner courtyard is broken?" Zhao Chen's face was slightly pale at this time, he had already heard that this group of people was not small, and no one knew better than him what the strength of the guards in the military courtyard was, and it was hard to imagine how strong the other party was.

"If the inner courtyard is breached, then I don't have to close my eyes from now on!" Li Er was still with his head down at this time, casually peeling the sweet potato, however, when he said this, his tone was full of a sense of calmness.

The inner courtyard was not broken, Zhao Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then remembered that when he was outside just now, the inner servant said that he couldn't see the old eunuch, and when he heard Li Er say this, there is no doubt that the inner courtyard was protected by the old eunuch last night.

"Your Majesty, did you leave any alive last night?" Zhao Chen's heart at this time was already turbulent, and his head was a little blank, and when he heard Li Er say that the inner courtyard was intact, he just breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately traced the whereabouts of those people.

“… The guards took their lives and left three alive! Hearing Zhao Chen's inquiry, Li Er, who originally lowered his head, finally raised his head at this moment, looked straight at Zhao Chen, and said, "I want to know now where they come from!" ”

"Wechen also wants to know!" understood Li Er's anger at this time, therefore, hearing Li Er's calm tone, Zhao Chen didn't talk nonsense, bowed slightly at Li Er, and when he spoke, he turned around and walked outside.

Being able to painstakingly train so many dead soldiers, and dare to go straight to the military academy with a clear goal, such a thing is basically ready to poke the sky into a hole, Zhao Chen really couldn't imagine that there are such characters in Datang.

Coming out of the Ganlu Palace, Zhao Chen's face was gloomy, and he strode straight to the palace gate, the waiter who was still chatting with Zhao Chen outside just now, saw Zhao Chen coming out of the Ganlu Palace, and originally wanted to come forward to talk, but as a result, he stepped forward with a smile on his face, but it was Zhao Chen's eerie and terrifying face that greeted him.

The military courtyard is behind the palace, coming out of the palace gate, sparing a big circle, before I get closer, I see the outside of the military courtyard from a distance, rows of guards patrolling back and forth, the entire military courtyard inside and outside, is a heavily guarded look. ...
