Chapter 346: An Unquiet Night

East Palace.

The time has reached late at night, but the front hall is still bright, and now Pei's stomach has been more than seven months, and it has already been revealed, so usually Li Hong will not stay up late if he doesn't stay up.

But today is different, Pei Shi has just gone to bed, Li Hong quietly got up again, looked at the heavy night outside the window, and frowned tightly.

"Your Royal Highness, General Wang has sent news that the sixth rate of the East Palace is ready, and as soon as His Royal Highness's order comes out, he can enter the palace Qin Wang!"

And Wang Fusheng on the side also smelled a trace of unusual breath, and stood nervously behind Li Hong, not even daring to say a word, and stopped for a moment before speaking.

"Good!"

Li Hong's face was cold and he spoke softly, while Wang Fusheng quietly retreated after speaking.

But what Li Hong didn't expect was that at this moment, a weak voice sounded.

"Your Highness, but tonight is the time?"

Behind the white jade screen, Pei Shi walked out with the support of the maid with a simple bun, his voice was still as soft as ever, but he couldn't help but have a trace of worry.

Hearing this call, Li Hong was stunned at first, then turned around and said with a slight reproach.

"It's cold at night, why are you up! Go back soon! ”

It's just that Li Hong kept silent about Pei's question just now, but the worry between his eyebrows continued unabated.

Unexpectedly, Pei's family, who is always very obedient to Li Hong, was very stubborn this time, gently pushed away the maid who supported her, moved lightly, and stood firmly beside Li Hong, so frightened that Li Hong hurriedly supported her.

"Your Highness, since the concubine is the wife of His Highness, it is natural that husband and wife are one, advancing and retreating together!"

Glancing lovingly at his stomach, Pei Shi raised his head, but his expression was extremely determined.

Although these days in order to let her raise the fetus with peace of mind, Li Hong is very careful not to let the news of the court reach Pei's ears, but how can such a big thing be hidden?

The emperor scolded the "rebel son" at the court meeting and fainted angrily.

Others didn't know, but Pei Shi was able to determine that Li Zhi was definitely not referring to Li Hong, and the battle between the East Palace and the Yongwang Mansion had now reached a white-hot level, and now the emperor's attitude was so obvious.

How could King Yong's Mansion just sit back and wait to die?

This reason is very simple, with Pei's intelligence, it is naturally not difficult to think clearly, not to mention that since that court meeting, Li Hong has been worried, how can Pei not see it?

Li Hong was slightly stunned, looking at the latter's clear and resolute eyes, but he sighed and said lightly.

"That's right, it's tonight! But Wanying, don't worry, wait until tomorrow, everything will be calm, you just need to stay in the East Palace, and you will become a ......."

It's just that there is a trace of worry in his tone, but he can't hide it.

Although he had made preparations before, but at this moment, Li Hong's heart was still difficult to calm down, and everything just depended on the plan going well!

After a moment of silence, a small chamberlain hurriedly walked in, and after Wang Fusheng took a note from his hand, his face changed, and he stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Your Highness, there is a decree from the palace to summon His Highness to enter the palace from the Donghua Gate!"

It's just that when Wang Fusheng said this, his voice was unexpectedly a little trilling, paused, and added again.

"It was not General Manager Wu who delivered the decree, and there was no edict, only an edict!"

"Your Highness can't go!"

As soon as Wang Fusheng's words fell, Pei's slightly eager voice rang out.

"Father Emperor categorically will not summon His Highness at this time, not to mention that Donghua Gate is a remote door, how could Father Emperor specifically specify that His Highness should enter the palace from there? This is clearly a trap! ”

Gently holding Li Hong's arm, Pei's eyes showed a deep worry.

However, Li Hong smiled slightly and said indifferently.

"Wanying, you underestimate me too much, how can this little trick be hidden from me?"

After a pause, Li Hong's gaze turned to Wang Fusheng and said softly.

"Wang Fusheng, pass on Gu's order, tell General Wang that it's time to do it!"

After saying that, Li Hong patted Pei's hand gently, with a warm smile on his face, handed her over to the maid on the side, and he turned around and left here with Wang Fusheng.

But Pei's expression behind him became more and more determined, but his expression couldn't help but bring a lot of worry.

…………

Donghua Gate.

The man in Tsing Yi came to Li Xian with a loyal middle-aged man, and as soon as the middle-aged man saw Li Xian, he knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice.

"Humble Li Mingfu has seen His Highness!"

The man in Tsing Yi had a complicated look on his face, but he spoke softly.

"Lord Wang, everything is according to plan, the Imperial Forest Army here has been fully controlled by General Li, just wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to arrive, and I can do it later!"

Seeing this scene, Li Xian nodded with satisfaction, a cruel smile appeared on his face, and he took a deep breath and said.

"That's fine, everything will be left to sir, and this king will bring people into the imperial city to wait! Presumably, now the prince has mobilized the six rates of the East Palace, as long as Mr. ambushes the prince here, the king can justifiably rush in in the name of King Qin, and then the thousands of six rates of the East Palace will be the evidence of the prince's rebellion! If you don't believe it, you have to believe it! ”

After saying that, Li Xian solemnly arched his hand towards the man in Tsing Yi, and then turned around and entered the Donghua Gate with his own soldiers, without making any more stops.

At this moment, the man in Tsing Yi turned around and said to the middle-aged man with his fists.

"General, have you memorized all the orders of the prince?"

"Sir, rest assured, I received Liu Xiang's great favor, before Liu Xiang set out on the expedition, he instructed me to act according to the orders of His Royal Highness King Yong, even if I want this life, I will give it! Tonight will never delay His Highness's important affairs! ”

The originally loyal face of the middle-aged man showed a look of perseverance at the moment, but there was a hint of fanaticism in this perseverance.

However, as if he hadn't seen such an abnormal face of the man in his prime, the man in Tsing Yi took out a small jade order from his arms, took a deep breath, and shouted in a deep voice.

"Where's the Dark Guard?"

With this shout, more than a dozen people dressed in black with strange masks suddenly flashed out of the original shadows.

These people were tightly wrapped up and down, the masks on their faces were very hideous, and only a pair of cold and ruthless eyes were revealed, and they knelt on one knee when they saw the jade order in the hand of the man in Tsing Yi.

"The jade order is here, I order you to lurk around the Donghua Gate, and when the East Palace arrives, listen to my orders!"

There was a hint of trembling in the voice of the man in Tsing Yi, but the jade order in his hand was steady.

As soon as these words were finished, those people in black did not hesitate at all, and disappeared around in an instant......

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, but his eyes lit up, and he turned around and went to arrange the defense of Donghua Gate......
