A strange atmosphere permeated the sky above the crowd at the gate of the courtyard, and the white and beautiful cheeks were full of worry, and he looked at Li Hong several times as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Li Hong didn't bother to pay attention to the expressions of the few of them, needless to say, he knew that he suddenly summoned himself back to the palace, so that they felt if there was something big going on in the palace, and if he went back in such a hurry, would there be any danger.

Just when everyone was about to leave, Bai Chun suddenly appeared in front of Li Hong, looked around and saw that there was no one around, only a few palace maids and Hua Meng, they didn't dare to look at Li Hong's gaze, and lowered their heads and whispered: "Master, only the personal guards will accompany you back, I am afraid that it will be rude, bring the impossible left guard back to the palace together, and your honor guard cannot be missing." ”

Li Hong glanced at her strangely, stretched out his hand and stroked Bai Chun's beautiful cheek, let Bai Chun raise his head to look at himself, and said slowly: "Bringing more people back will only make people think that there is a ghost in the master's heart, let's talk about it, what information did Jingwei receive." ”

Looking at Bai Chun's appearance, she knew that there must be some intelligence that made her feel that it was not safe for her to return to the palace like this.

Bai Chun showed a bitter smile and said with some difficulty: "The queen also summoned Li Xian, the king of Pei, and Li Zhe, the king of England, into the palace, and now I am afraid they are all already in the palace." ”

Li Hong smiled, patted her shoulder, and suddenly put his cheek to Bai Chun's ear, the two of them put their cheeks against their cheeks, making Bai Chun shy for a while, only to hear the gentle voice in his ear: "Your Jingwei's skills have regressed, or do you still have to hide something from your master?" Haven't there been people infiltrating the court? ”

Bai Chun frowned again, and suddenly ignored the eyes of Xia Zhi and the personal guards, hugged Li Hong's neck, and muttered: "Bai Chun originally didn't plan to tell the master, for fear that the master would be upset." Today, Your Majesty is in the court, and it is because he is discussing with the ministers whether to crown you as the post of Shangshu Ling, so he fainted. ”

Li Hong pushed away Bai Chun in his arms, patted her cheek again, and said: "Don't worry, some things are not as bad as you imagined, summarize all your information, and you can find the argument that overturns what you think in your heart, you are not good at this, after all the information is gathered, you can't quickly sort out all the clear contexts, the associations of east and west sentences, and the complete clues that can't be stitched together, you have to look forward, how many times have I taught you." ”

Bai Chun was taken aback, looking at Li Hong with some surprise, Li Hong smiled, and suddenly picked up Bai Chun, put Bai Chun on the back of his war horse food stamp, and then rode up again: "Discuss while walking." ”

Under the escort of the pro-guards, Bai Qi was thrown to a woman by Li Hong again, this time not An Xiaohe, but Pei Wanying.

Now I am no longer as afraid of Bai Qi as I was when I met for the first time, and occasionally I will touch Bai Qi's huge head, but Sun Simiao doesn't like Bai Qi very much, and Bai Qi doesn't like him either, in Li Hong's eyes, Sun Simiao's eyes at Bai Qi make Bai Qi angry, and I always feel that Sun Simiao wants to dissect Bai Qi and study the surgery that Li Hong said.

Li Hong knew what Bai Chun was worried about, and he understood why Bai Chun didn't tell him about the controversy in the court, it was just that he was afraid that after he knew, he would speed up his actions to covet Shang Shuling's position, and if he really messed up, he would only let the people in the dark succeed in their schemes, which was Bai Chun's real concern.

And there is another important reason, that is, I don't know if it's a woman's natural sensitivity, or the sixth sense of that behavior, although Bai Chun and Wu Mei are safe, but Bai Chun is very defensive against Wu Mei.

This time, Wu Mei urgently summoned Li Hong back to the palace, including recalling Li Xian and Li Zhe, which made Bai Chun feel that this matter was not as simple as it seemed, and the undercurrent surging under the calm was the reason why Bai Chun was worried.

What's more, his covetousness for Shang Shuling is now Sima Zhao's heart - everyone knows it. Regardless of whether this kind of rumor is speculation from the court, or whether he ordered Bai Chun to let Jingwei take the initiative to release the rumor.

Now that Shang Shuling's position is in Bai Chun's opinion, it is obvious that he has formed a double-edged sword for himself, and there are pros and cons.

Just as Li Zhong said to Helan Minyue at the beginning, if he wants to inherit the throne from the crown prince, the price he pays and the road he has to take will be much more difficult than that of his father.

Along the way, Bai Chun was obediently nestled in Li Hong's arms, listening to Li Hong's analysis of this return to the palace, as well as his requirements for Jingwei, but what puzzled Bai Chun was that Li Hong actually asked Jingwei to find a few cooks from the Lingnan Five Governors of Lingnan East Road, that is, the five Governors' Mansions, Guangzhou, Guizhou, Rongzhou, Yongzhou and Annan, or from Chang'an and Luoyang, and they must be cooks under the jurisdiction of these five Governors.

Bai Chun could only nod silently, and immediately arranged for Jingwei to complete this matter after going back, as for what the prince, who has never been particular about eating, was looking for a Lingnan chef to do, she didn't ask much, just do her duty.

It was much faster than when he went to Lantian, and without the carriage slowing down the speed, Li Hong and his party were already closed when the sky was getting dark, and they rushed to the gate of Chang'an City.

"I'm going to tear down this gate sooner or later!" Someone was so angry that he wouldn't let himself in!

The dignified Jingzhao Mansion Yin, the Hubu Shangshu, the Dadu Protector of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and the current His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty were turned away by the city guards, and the fish charms and tokens were all taken away for inspection.

Li Hong craned his neck and looked at the city tower and almost scolded, Bai Chun and Xia Zhi on the side couldn't hold it back. Hua Meng and the others guarded in front of Li Hong, looking at the city tower with vigilant eyes, but they knew that the powerful bow and crossbow on the city tower must be aimed at them at this moment.

"No one is on duty, you can come down for me!" Li Hong scolded at the silent city tower.

And the generals above also knew at this time that this was His Royal Highness the Prince, but without the order from above, he didn't dare to open the city gate, otherwise he would definitely be unlucky at that time.

can only keep wiping sweat, while urging the soldiers next to him, hurry up and urge the adults who test the fish talisman and token to go.

Just when someone couldn't wait and was about to break the door, the gate of Chang'an City slowly opened, and a middle-aged man wearing Mingguang armor walked out quickly: "Cui Zhibi, the general of the right guard of the last general, Yulin, has seen His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

"Is there anything else you want to check?" Although Li Hong was angry, after the curfew, the rules that had been changed had to be observed.

Moreover, looking at the heavily armed armored soldiers behind Cui Zhibian, the city guards tonight are obviously much stricter than usual, in the past, they could go out of the city casually with Xiaoxue alone, and there are also some officials who use their connections to open the door to others.

But today's city defense is obviously different from usual, the city tower is flickering with a little cold light of arrows, and the city gate is like a great enemy, solemn looking soldiers and generals, Li Hong's heart also unconsciously has some doubts.

Xia Zhi and Xiaoxue, the four palace maids, faintly protected Li Hong and Bai Chun inside, and Hua Meng, a few eunuchs, also had a cold light in their eyes, one hand on their waists, and looked at Cui Zhibi vigilantly.

Wei Tu Qi led a team of two hundred personal guards, his eyes were blazing, and he also put his hands on his weapons, and if there was a slight movement, they would not hesitate to pounce on him, blocking in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to protect his safety.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please." Cui Zhibi looked at Li Hong, respectfully returned the fish talisman and token to Xiaoxue next to him, and said sideways.

Li Hong nodded slightly, Cui Zhibi also has a famous military general in history, I haven't heard of him rebelling or what, and now the city gate is heavily guarded, obviously it has nothing to do with him.

The personal guards escorted Li Hong to the East Palace again, and Cui Zhibi even planned to send troops to escort him, but Li Hong refused.

A cavalry of more than 200 people walked on the dark and silent streets of Chang'an City, except for the occasional encounter with the guards who were patrolling the city, the desertion on the street and the bustle and hustle and bustle during the day were like two worlds.

Just after Li Hong and the others left, the window on the second floor of a mansion at the city gate, a small gap that was originally open slowly closed, and everything about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just now was seen by him and remembered in his heart.

Slowly passing through the Vermilion Bird Gate from Suzaku Street into the Imperial City after all, turning to the right is not far from his East Palace, and facing the Suzaku Gate, it is naturally the Taiji Palace that has been demolished by him and has nothing left.

As soon as the cavalry stopped at the gate of Jiafu in the East Palace, Li Hong said lightly: "Everyone go back to the East Palace, and Bai Chun will follow me into the palace to meet my father and mother." ”

Xiao Xue, Hua Meng and the others were all stunned, their expressions were incomprehensible, and they all wanted to speak, but they were afraid of the faint power of His Royal Highness the Prince, and they didn't dare to speak easily.

At this time, although it is not the middle of the night, the imperial city and the Taiji Palace, including the Daming Palace behind him, are also brightly lit, but as soon as they come back, they will enter the Daming Palace immediately without waiting for the summons, will it cause any changes at this sensitive moment?

Bai Chunjiao's body trembled slightly, but looking at Li Hong, who looked as flat as usual, he still felt a sense of peace of mind for no reason, thinking that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not joke with his life.

Dangdangdang...... There was a louder sound in the distance, and Xiao Xue whispered with a pun: "It's all time, it's so late, I really don't think so." ”

Li Hong walked up to her easily, stretched out his hand and gently pinched Xiao Xuexue's white cheeks, and said disdainfully: "Don't think I don't know what you think, hurry back, you will sleep tonight." ”

"Huh? Yes, the slave and the maid obeyed. Xiaoxue was the most shy among the women, and she was taken aback when she heard Li Hong's words, but looking at the prince's relaxed expression, although her face was red to the base of her neck, she still nodded quietly.

After Bai Chun and Li Hong left, Wei Tu Qi immediately strengthened the defense of the East Palace, and the powerful bows and crossbows were also arranged by him in all corners.
