Staff Officer Gao said: "The order I received is to let the head of the Flying Tiger Army go to the meeting, and Deputy Chief of Staff Wang is not at the level of enough. If you really can't go, forget it, just take your leave. So saying, he left.

After the senior staff officer left, Du He said to Deputy Chief of Staff Wang: "You have worked hard, go to the General Staff Headquarters to see what kind of meeting is being held." ”

Deputy Chief of Staff Wang nodded and said, "I understand, I'll go." ”

Du He and Wei Chi Baoqi had already received Li Su's order: Except for Li Su's order, they must not leave the headquarters of the Flying Tiger Army for half a step, and they should be ready to respond at any time.

The Flying Tiger Army's garrison was only a little more than a kilometer away from the staff headquarters, and Deputy Chief of Staff Wang soon returned. He said: "Commander Du, Commander Wei Chi, the General Staff Headquarters did not hold a meeting at all.

I inquired, and the senior staff officer did not return to the General Staff at all. ”

Du He was shocked and said, "Oh no, this is to divert the tiger from the mountain and murder us." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in danger. ”

Yu Chi Baoqi said: "Then what should I do? ”

Du He said: "What else can I do, prepare to send troops." Hurry up and assemble the team. ”

Du He sent his cronies to the East Palace to find out the news, and at the same time ordered the team to be assembled.

Yu Chi Baoqi hurriedly ran out, and soon, the mournful sound of the horn was remembered in the camp of the Flying Tiger Army.

Du He is right, Li Su is really dangerous.

Ma Xuanliang took people to the East Palace and sent a decree to Li Su, asking Li Su to go to the Taiji Hall to meet Li Shimin. Li Shimin plans to capture the thief and capture the king first, as long as Li Su is controlled, and then Du He and Yu Chi Baoqi are controlled, the others are not worried.

Li Shimin waited for Ma Xuanliang's news in the study.

Soon, Ma Xuanliang came back, and he said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in the East Palace. ”

No one saw Li Su leave the East Palace, where did he go?

It turned out that Li Xiaogong and Hou Junji finished drinking in the East Palace and were ready to leave.

Li Xiaogong and Hou Junji went out, and Li Xiaogong said: "Oops, things are not quite right!" ”

Hou Junji said: "What's the matter, Lord Wang? ”

Li Xiaogong said: "You forgot? The change of Xuanwu Gate, the emperor does not care about family affection, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is smart, but he attaches too much importance to feelings, in case the emperor has murderous intentions, isn't it too dangerous for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to stay in the East Palace? ”

When Hou Junji heard this, he was shocked into a cold sweat. He said, "Not just in case, but ten thousand!" I know the emperor too well, when he shot his brother to death, his face did not change.

In the current situation, if I were the emperor, I would also take decisive measures to control the crown prince first, and then deal with the crisis outside.

In this case, even if the Flying Tiger Army arrives and throws a mouse trap, there is no way. ”

Li Xiaogong said: "In this case, let's go back quickly, let him leave this place first, and don't return to the Huangdong Palace for the time being until the matter is resolved." ”

So, they returned to the East Palace, and forcibly dragged him out of the East Palace under the pretext of letting the crown prince Li Su go to Chang'an World to watch the singing and dancing.

The carriage of Li Xiaogong and others was not allowed to enter the palace, and it was normal for them to ride Li Su's carriage when they went out, and no one saw the prince when he was in the carriage.

Flying Tiger Army camp.

In the headquarters, Du He held an emergency meeting and said to dozens of officers: "Don't say much, now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in danger, and troops must be dispatched immediately, according to the prior plan, I order." ”

The officers stood together and waited for Duhe's command.

Du He issued a series of orders, deciding that Wei Chi Baoqi would lead the first detachment to the headquarters of the armed police, and he would take the main forces of the second and third detachments to the palace. At the same time, tasks such as the capture of Li Tai, the king of Wei, were arranged.

On the playground, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army, with bright armor and swords, were neatly arranged like wolves and tigers, waiting for the general's order.

The cronies sent by Du He were his guard captain Li Hou (monkey), and he hurried to the palace, showed Du He's waist card, and came to the East Palace.

Since Li Hou served as Du He's guard captain, he often followed Du He to the East Palace, and he was very familiar with the princesses.

When Li Ning'er saw him, she asked, "Monkey, you're here, where is Duhe?" ”

Li Hou didn't care to say more, he asked, "Commander Du asked me to ask, is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here?" ”

Li Ning'er said, "He went to my father's king. ”

Li Hou arched his hand and said, "Farewell." "After that, he turned around and left.

Li Ning'er shook her head and said, "This monkey is in a hurry, and he has the same virtue as that guy from Duhe. ”

Wu Cong said: "This guy is usually not like this, he is quite good at being polite, there must be something urgent."

Sister Ning'er, it's been weird everywhere these days, and I feel as if something big is about to happen. ”

Li Ning'er said: "Don't worry about that, there are Brother Liang and my father Wang in everything." I'm just working hard, and I'm not going to work anymore, so I'm a little uncomfortable. Let's go, go to your room, let's talk. ”

Besides, after Li Shimin got Ma Xuanliang's report, he felt that something was wrong. He asked, "What's going on with the Flying Tigers?" ”

Ma Xuanliang said: "The people I sent have not yet returned, and they are waiting for their news. ”

Soon, Ma Xuanliang's subordinates asked to see him outside.

Ma Xuanliang went out for a while and came back soon. He said with a sad face:

"Your Majesty, the people sent by the ministers want to transfer them out of the Flying Tiger Army camp and kidnap them halfway. However, Du He and Yu Chi Baoqi did not come out. It seems that they have already taken precautions. ”

Li Shimin suddenly felt that he was a little impulsive and should not act so hastily. He knew that Du He and the others should be able to guess the truth of the matter soon.

Then, their actions against the prince will also be detected by them.

At this moment, his mind was churning, and he was urgently thinking about countermeasures, and at this moment, he felt uncomfortable. It turned out that the drug addiction had flareed up. He opened the drawer and saw that there were only four pills left inside.

He took two pills, held back his nausea and discomfort, and said, "Ma Xuanliang, you go and do two things." The first thing was to immediately order the palace guards to seal off the palace and not allow anyone to enter or leave.

The second thing is that you immediately send someone to inform the troops who received the holy decree last time, and let them enter Chang'an King Qin immediately.

At the same time, he invited Sun Simiao and asked him to bring more pills. ”

Besides, Li Hou hurriedly left the East Palace and walked towards the gate of the palace. He suddenly saw a large number of palace guards rushing towards the palace gate.

When he reached the gate of the palace, he was intercepted by the soldiers.

He showed his waist card, but the officer guarding the palace gate said, "The emperor has decreed that no one is allowed to enter or leave." ”

Li Hou was anxious, but he had no choice but to return to the East Palace.

When Li Hou came to the palace, he came with two soldiers, and when he entered the palace, he could only enter on foot, and the soldiers were waiting outside to lead the horses.

When they saw that a large number of guards had been added to the gate of the palace and the gate of the palace had been closed, they knew that something was wrong, and Li Hou would definitely not be able to get out.

So, they immediately flew back to the Flying Tigers' station.

After Du He and Wei Chi Baoqi received the report, they thought that Li Su had been detained in the palace, and the two were anxious, no longer hesitated, and immediately started to act.

When the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army walked out of the camp of the Flying Tiger Army, everything was irretrievable.
