Chapter 1007: Entering the Palace
"Let those who are behind the scenes wait for death, I will tear down your families little by little, step by step, so that you will never have the possibility of turning over!" Li Xiu whispered his warning in Cui Gan's ear, and then turned around and left, from today onwards, he will be completely opposed to the family, and there is no possibility of reconciliation.
Hearing Li Xiu's words, Cui Gan's face couldn't help but change, when he saw Li Xiu turn around, he seemed to want to stay, but he stretched out his hand but still couldn't speak, and finally all the words could only turn into a long sigh, and then turned around and returned home step by step, looking from behind, his back was already hunched, and his snow-white hair was flying in the morning breeze, maybe he was indeed at the age when it was time to go home to retire.
"Pony, are we still going to chase the princess now?" As soon as Li Xiu got on the horse, he saw a short young man next to him asking Li Xiu, this young man's name is Xiang Chongyang, it is Xiang Shanzhi's youngest son, he looks eight points similar to Xiang Shanzhi, because he was born on the Double Ninth Festival, so he was directly named Chongyang, this time Xiang Shanzhi asked him to lead the team to escort Li Xiu.
Li Xiu also pondered for a moment when he heard this, before he saw Princess Pingyang murderously leading the troops into Chang'an, and the whole person also lost his calm, but after saying a few words to Cui Gan just now, he suddenly calmed down, and then he also analyzed the current situation, and quickly shook his head and said: "Don't look for it, we can't catch up with the princess at all, you go into the palace with me, I want to see Your Majesty first!" ”
Hearing that Li Xiu was going to enter the palace, Xiang Chongyang and other young people in Wuzhizhuang also showed excitement, after all, they had grown so big, and they had never entered the palace, in fact, let alone the palace, even the imperial city was not something that ordinary people could approach, and when Xiang Chongyang was sensible, his father resigned and went home, so he also never entered the palace.
At the same time, Li Shimin sat in the Liangyi Hall with a gloomy face, and the eldest grandson Wuji next to him was also sitting upright, but neither of them spoke, which made the atmosphere in the hall a little dull.
Today, when Li Shimin was sleeping soundly, he was suddenly woken up by the noise in the palace, and then someone reported to him, saying that it was a fire in the printing office, which made Li Shimin also sleepy, and he was about to send someone to invite Li Xiu and the eldest grandson Wuji to come to the palace to discuss matters, although the cause of the fire in the printing office has not yet been found, but Li Shimin's intuition told him that the fire was definitely not so simple.
The eldest grandson Wuji's mansion is on the edge of the imperial city, so he also arrived quickly, but Li Xiu lives outside the city, which Li Shimin also knows, so at first he and the eldest grandson Wuji waited while discussing things, but this waited until the sky was dawn, but Li Xiu still didn't come, not only Li Xiu didn't come, but even the guards who went to summon Li Xiu into the palace didn't come back, which made them slowly a little anxious, of course, Li Shimin would never have dreamed that the guards he sent to invite Li Xiu had died at the hands of a group of black-clothed men outside the city, Even Li Xiu was almost mishappier.
"Wuji, why hasn't Li Xiu come yet?" At this time, Li Shimin finally got impatient to wait, and asked the eldest grandson Wuji at the moment, the two of them still had something to say just now, but now that they had even finished speaking, they wanted to discuss things but Li Xiu was missing, so Li Shimin was also very irritable.
"This ...... Maybe there's something delaying on the way, right? Eldest Sun Wuji also hesitated a little at this time, he has been counting the time, it is said that even if Li Xiu lives outside the city, it should be here at this time, why is there still no news?
"Report~" But at this moment, I suddenly saw an inner servant rushing over and reporting loudly, "Your Majesty, the guard of Mingde Gate will send someone to report, an hour ago, Princess Pingyang led her troops to storm the city gate and kill into the city, and now her whereabouts are unknown!" ”
Although General Song, who was guarding the city, followed Li Xiu's advice and still opened the city gate as usual, but the matter of Princess Pingyang leading her troops to break into the gate was too serious, so he didn't dare to hide it, so after Li Xiu left, he also immediately sent someone to report to Li Shimin.
"What?" Hearing the news, Li Shimin and Eldest Sun Wuji stood up in shock almost at the same time, even though they were usually used to seeing big storms, they were still frightened by the news.
"How is this possible, the princess has not led troops for a long time, and there are only about 2,000 guards left around her, how can she lead troops to storm the city gate?" However, soon the eldest grandson Wuji reacted, and immediately questioned the attendant who reported the news with a serious face.
"The slave maid also asked the people sent by General Song, and the other party swore that he saw Princess Pingyang lead her troops into the city, and then the horse also rushed to the city gate, and told General Song to tighten the guard outside and inside, and then go to chase the princess, and now the situation is unknown!" The messenger reported again, and when he first heard the news, he also doubted the authenticity of the news, and it was not until the messenger assured him with his head that he believed it a little.
"No wonder Li Xiu hasn't come, he actually went to chase the third sister, but why did the third sister lead the troops into the city?" Li Shimin couldn't help muttering to himself when he heard the words of the servant, and at the same time, his brows furrowed even deeper.
"Report~" At this moment, suddenly another attendant came panting, and immediately reported after entering the main hall, "Your Majesty, Jin Wuwei sent someone to report just now, saying that it was ...... Say yes ......"
When the waiter who reported the news said this, he didn't know if it was because he was running too quickly and couldn't breathe? Or is it because the things that followed are too shocking to say it? As a result, I vomited for a while, and I couldn't say anything anyway.
"Say what?" Li Shimin was anxious at this time, and when he saw the waiter's appearance, he couldn't help but pat the book.
Seeing Li Shimin's anger, the second servant who reported the news was also frightened, and then reported loudly: "It is said that Princess Pingyang led her troops into the mansion of Cui Gan, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, and immediately withdrew after a while, and then immediately entered the mansion of Zheng Zhong, the servant of the ministry, Jin Wuwei did not dare to intercept at all, and specially came to report it, please make a decision!" ”
"The third sister has entered the mansion of Cui Gan and Zheng Zhong?" Li Shimin couldn't help but show an even more incredible expression when he heard this, no matter what, he didn't expect that Princess Pingyang led her troops into the city to get along with Cui Gan and these people?
"Cui Gan, Zheng Zhong, the family!" The eldest grandson Wuji whispered a few words to himself at this time, and then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he vaguely seemed to find the connection, especially today when the printing office suddenly caught fire, and the printing office was built to deal with the family, so that the context of the whole thing seemed to be clear all of a sudden.
"Your Majesty, Yan Guogong asks to see you!" At this moment, I saw another chamberlain come to report.
