Therefore, Li Yan decided to leave the capital.

Before in the court, Li Yan successfully exposed the ambition of the prince.

But also because of the rush, Zhao Qi's suspicions were aroused.

If Li Yan said that he was leaving the capital at this time, Zhao Qi would definitely have doubts, and what Li Yan had done before would fall short.

Li Yan's coping method is not to go to the court, but this is not a long-term solution.

Now that the identity of the old beggar Tiger Thorn Army has been discovered, there is a reason for him to leave the capital at this time.

If he leaves the capital, the usefulness of the drawing will be minimized.

The crown prince and even the emperor have no way to predict his next step, and Li Yan, who was appointed as the teacher on paper, has not yet taken action, so as long as he leaves the capital, all the problems will be solved.

"I don't know where Wu Chang is, how is it!"

......

After Sikong Yun returned to the prince's mansion, he immediately got into the quilt and instructed the woman next to him to wake him up when the rooster crowed.

According to Sikong Yun's habit in the past, he would not get up until noon after sleeping, but this time it was different, the stakes were very high, and he didn't dare to delay.

Zhao Yinglin went to the court early in the morning, and when he returned home, he found that Sikong Yun was waiting outside.

Zhao Yinglin changed into court clothes, and a white and fat middle-aged man led Sikong Yun in.

Zhao Yinglin asked, "What did you gain last night?" ”

A smile appeared on Sikong Yun's face: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really a clever calculation!" ”

Zhao Yinglin ignored Sikong Yun's flattery, waved his hand, and the maids on the left and right retreated.

Sikong Yun took out a blank piece of paper from his arms.

After Zhao Yinglin looked at the lines and names on it, he suddenly felt a little big.

When he saw that his name was circled with the emperor, Ren Shizhong, Ren Xiaotong, and Zhao Yingwu, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Yinglin's mouth.

This is probably the purpose of Li Yan.

Zhao Yinglin was very happy, and the fat master behind him had some doubts in his heart: "Your Highness, Master Ji is not in Beijing, it's better to be cautious." This piece of paper, I don't think it's that simple. ”

Zhao Yinglin was a little unhappy: "Master Ji, Master Ji, could it be that in this palace, except for Master Ji, all of them are a group of wine bags and rice bags?" ”

The master's head hung lower, but he didn't speak.

Zhao Yinglin sighed and said, "This king knows, and you also mean well." The king has his own plans for this. I just received a report from the messenger that Master Ji has succeeded in the south, but Master Ji said in the letter that you should be optimistic about Li Yan and not let him leave the capital, you go and say hello to the City Defense Division. ”

After Zhao Yinglin finished speaking, he was about to leave.

Sikong Yun hurriedly said: "Your Highness, there is one more thing about the small one!" ”

"Say"

"The little one found a tiger stabbing soldier in the Lu family pharmacy."

"Tiger Thorn Army? Hasn't it been extinguished for more than ten years? ”

Hearing this, the fat master walked over quickly: "Your Highness, what a chance!" All the Tiger Thorn soldiers who came back that year were rewarded and recorded by the Ministry of War. This sudden appearance is very likely to be a spy of the Liao people! ”

The prince thought about it for a while, and sneered twice, he naturally knew what the fat master meant, there are many such things in the military department.

is accused of hiding spies, Li Yan can't escape this time.

The prince stood up and handed the piece of paper to the fat master: "Let someone copy it immediately, I'm going to the princess's mansion!" ”

Li Huan slept soundly last night, but when he woke up and saw the old beggar's sad face, he knew what had happened last night.

Li Yan told Lihuan that the pharmacy was robbed last night, and the prince should have known about the old beggar, and they were leaving the capital.

Lihuan opened the door of the pharmacy, and the capital was very lively in the early morning.

Some people were drinking tea at the entrance of the alley, and the morning shops along the street were also opened.

But for some reason, Lihuan always felt that something was wrong.

An old woman, on crutches, had a faded turban on her head, and her dry hair was blown by the mighty wind.

Her face was dark, she was dressed in ragged sackcloth, covered with dust, and the unpleasant smell on her clothes made everyone who passed by look sideways.

The old woman walked slowly, step by step, her eyes fixed on the road under her feet.

No one knew where she would stop.

Li Yan pointed to the old woman to Li Huan, who nodded and walked over slowly.

Li Huan asked, "This aunt, where are you going?" I'll help you! ”

As he spoke, Li Huan reached out and grabbed the old woman's arm.

The old woman opened her chapped lips and opened her mouth: "Water ......"

After finishing speaking, he fell down, and Lihuan was already away, and hurriedly helped the old woman into the house.

Li Huan winked at Li Yan, and then closed the door.

The old woman opened her eyes and stood up, but the weakness in her tone remained.

"Mr. Li, please save my husband."

Only then did Li Yan see his face clearly.

The person who came turned out to be Wu Chang's wife, Chen Niantao!

Li Yan said: "Mrs. Chen, you only need to send a letter, thousands of mountains and rivers, and Li Yan will arrive as scheduled." Why not come to the door in person? ”

Chen Niantao shook his head: "Baozi sent countless letters, but they were intercepted halfway, so I had to come over in person." ”

From the capital to Longshan, there are thousands of miles away.

Li Yan couldn't imagine how a woman crossed thousands of miles and came to the capital.

Her shoes were worn out, and her face was covered with dust.

Li Yan knows that Chen Niantao is the eldest lady of the Chen family in Jiangxi!

A young lady from a wealthy family, in order to deliver her husband's news to the capital, she did not hesitate to be unkempt and traveled thousands of miles!

Even if it is an ordinary woman, how can she do this?

It is conceivable that Chen Niantao gave up his identity in order to avoid the dark whistle and take care of his image.

Relying only on the obsession of a woman who loves her husband deeply, she has crossed a distance of tens of thousands of miles.

Li Yan was in awe: "Mrs. Chen, don't worry, where did Wu Chang go?" ”

Lihuan brought a glass of water, Chen Niantao drank it in one gulp, and said slowly: "He went to Nanxu!" I still don't know if I live or die. ”

Li Yan thought about it and had no clue at all.

"Anyway, let's go to Conglongshan!"

Chen Niantao nodded: "It's okay, let's go over together." ”

Li Yan said: "No, it's good for you to stay in the capital." ”

Chen Niantao stood up and stared at Wu Chang with her eyes: "Could it be that you are playing everyone, looking down on Niantao and a woman?" ”

"Madam misunderstood, there is no one in the capital, and I am always a little uneasy."

Chen Niantao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had no reason to refute Li Yan.

Li Yan sat at the table, waving the brush in his hand, and a letter was written in a short time.

Li Yan handed the letter to Chen Niantao and said, "Mrs. Chen, we will leave the city in the evening, since they can think of intercepting the letter you sent, they will probably prevent me from going to Conglongshan." We'll leave here in a moment, and in the evening you go to the princess's mansion with this letter and give it to the princess, who naturally knows what to do. ”
