Li Zhi glanced at him: "Otherwise, why do you think I promised Hong'er to let him live?" ”

Qinghe immediately did not speak. After a while, he whispered: "Then Lord, ...... next"

"Ignore it. It's just that you also need to ask Shura to prepare them. Li Zhi got up, let out a long breath, and prepared to walk to the main hall: "He can follow Hong'er, and it is best for Hong'er to use it." If not......"

Li Zhi strode out of the hall, leaving only one sentence: "That is to destroy him, and he cannot be used by those few people who have different intentions for Hong'er." Got it? ”

"Obey." Qinghe's eyes were resolute, and he saluted and retired.

Above the main hall.

Mei Niang sat alone in the midst of prosperity, drinking wine and having fun, and when she saw Li Zhi returning, she smiled again and stretched out her hand to him.

Li Zhi smiled, shook her fingertips with his backhand, sat down, and nodded to the ministers, then turned around and looked her up and down carefully, and said lightly: "Do you want to change your clothes?" I see that you wear this outfit, and it is also very heavy. ”

Mei Niang looked at the clothes he had changed into regular clothes, but said with a smile: "The banquet is not over, should you change it now?" ”

"Why not?" Li Zhi laughed again.

Mei Niang really felt that her head was heavy and heavy, so she answered, got up and walked to the apse.

After changing her clothes, she didn't leave immediately, but sat down in the place where Li Zhi once sit, and thought for a while before she suddenly whispered, "Where is Minghe?" ”

"Mother?"

Ming He, who was directing the little maids in the apse to clean up the crown robe she had changed, hurriedly walked over and saluted Mei Niang: "What did Niang Niang ask?" ”

"Hong'er, haven't you come back yet?" Somewhat stupidly, she looked at the flames in front of her and asked in a daze.

"Not yet, do you want to be unclear and urge?"

"No need......

Mei Niang shook her head hesitantly, and then her face gradually became firm: "No need. But there's one thing you need to plan for. Don't make a mistake. ”

Minghe didn't speak, just waited for her to speak.

After thinking for a moment, Mei Niang said in a deep voice: "That Dou Lu Dezhi ...... Look after him. If you find anything wrong with him, do it immediately, and don't hesitate. Got it? ”

Ming He Ying claimed that it was, and replied: "There is one more thing. Niangniang, should today's events be known outside the palace? ”

“…… Biography, but the first thing is not outside the palace, but inside the palace. ”

Mei Niang stared at the front with burning eyes, and her voice was extremely soft and thin: "First let the palace know, and then talk about the outside of the palace." ”

……

A night of prosperity ends in silence, and the sun rises when the heavens and the earth wake up.

Jiucheng Palace.

As soon as Mei Niang got up early and walked early to see where Li Hong was. But to her surprise, Li Hong not only did not rest in the dormitory in the Great Treasure Palace, but also did not sleep in his East Palace.

So she frowned, and asked the little attendants who stayed in the East Palace.

"Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went back to the East Palace to sleep last night, saying that he was afraid that it would be too late and disturb Niangniang. But early this morning, he went to the front hall to visit the Lord. Therefore it is not seen. The little waiters hurriedly responded when they saw Mei Niang's question.

Mei Niang nodded, her heart was slightly wide, and she was about to ask again, when she saw Minghe hurriedly entering, bowing to herself but not speaking.

So she instructed a few more words to tell everyone to keep an eye on Li Hong's daily life, and then left.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of the East Palace, Minghe whispered to Mei Niang, who was sitting firmly on the phoenix wheel: "Niangniang, something happened." ”

Mei Niang squinted her eyes and turned her head to look at him: "What's the matter?" ”

"Early this morning, news came from Chang'an City, saying that the two dozen or so assassins who fled back to Chang'an City were found dead on the outskirts of Chang'an."

Minghe looked at Mei Niang and said in a deep voice: "No one is left." ”

"None of ...... What a ruthless hand. Mei Niang smiled—although there was no smile in her eyes: "It seems that he has really made up his mind." If his mother had made the slightest decision with this child, she would not have ended up like that......

After a moment of silence, Mei Niang turned her head to look at Minghe: "Does Hong'er know about this?" ”

"I'm afraid we'll find out soon." Looking at Mei Niang, Ming He said lightly: "Niangniang, how should we deal with it?" ”

"Why do you need to deal with it?" Mei Niang smiled again: "This is originally a children's business, this palace doesn't have to interfere, and you are not allowed to interfere." To fight, to fight by themselves, to reconcile, to reconcile by themselves. Remember, no matter who is in the Great Treasure Palace, no one is allowed to help. Got it? ”

Mei Niang Feng ordered, naturally no one dared to rebel, although Minghe had the heart to fight for Li Hong, but it was not easy to say anything in the end, so he had to respond in his mouth, but he thought about it for a while, so he went to find Li Zhi.

It's just that what he never expected was that when he wanted to go to His Royal Highness Danxiao to see his brother an hour later, he asked him to tell Li Zhi about the matter, and then ask Li Zhi to make a decision......

"What did you say?"

Minghe's eyes widened: "The Lord also said that you should leave it alone?" ”

"Isn't it?"

Qinghe sighed: "I knew about this before my brother, so I hurriedly went to the Lord to tell him, thinking that I had to get an idea for His Royal Highness the Prince." Who would have thought that not only should the Lord not take it seriously, but also forbid us to take it seriously. even issued a holy decree in front of everyone, and no one was allowed to interfere in this matter, including us. ”

"No one is allowed to interfere...... Including our ......"

Minghe squinted, and suddenly asked lightly: "Then the lord said that Lord Chang'an is not allowed to interfere?" ”

"This ...... It's really not ...... yet" Qinghe felt and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What does my brother mean...... Could it be that the Lord ......"

"Probably so." Minghe sighed and smiled bitterly again: "Sometimes, I think that our Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Lu are a little pitiful...... The owner and the queen mother are such a pair of beloved sons as their lives, and they are very strict in discipline...... I don't know if it's good or not. ”

Qinghe wanted to laugh, but after all, he didn't laugh, so he just shook his head and sighed: "That's it." My brother is right, most of the time he has secretly arranged for Lord Chang'an. As long as there is Lord Chang'an, everything is worry-free. But in the end, we still have to be careful for His Highness. This time, whether it is King Qi or King Xun, those two are folded in the hands of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the bag is not all at this time, and he is so annoyed that he has to calculate the good of His Royal Highness the Prince! You can't go wrong with a closer look. ”

"That's right. But when it comes to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he is accompanied by shadow guards, and there will be no mistake in major matters. On the contrary, His Royal Highness King Lu is there, but he has to be very careful. Qi Xun and the two of them are both sour-faced. You watched those things last night. If you want me to tell me, they can't count His Royal Highness the Prince, so they will naturally want to count our Little Highness. ”

Minghe said as he nodded.

Qinghe also sighed: "Isn't it? But my brother is relieved, Qinghe has long expected it, and this morning, Qinghe took the opportunity to persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ask for a gift to the British Duke who had just returned, and accepted His Royal Highness King Lu as a British protégé. There is a British Duke in the town, even how the two of them are resentful, and they dare not toss our Royal Highness King Lu in front of the British Duke and his old man. ”

"And our little highness. You have to be careful, in short, you can't let the rat poisoning happen again. ”

After the two brothers of the Ming and Qing dynasties discussed, they went to prepare for the arrangement.

It's just that what they didn't expect anyway was ...... This time, whether it is King Qi Shangjin or King Xun Sujie, the people who are eyeing him are not the three brothers Li Hong, Li Xian and Li Xian at all.
