Chapter 261: Escape from Chang'an
The carriage slowly drove towards the city gate, and suddenly saw the fire in the Taiji Palace, and the originally silent night sky was a little more noisy.
In the Taiji Palace, the palace maid who came to change shifts first discovered the fire, and at that time, Wu Jieyu's bedroom was already on fire, and the palace maid hurriedly woke up a few people who were keeping vigil: "You guys get up quickly, the mother's room is on fire." ”
At this time, the few people who were on the night vigil woke up slowly, they were all frightened, and they hurriedly wanted to save people, but how could the palace maids have this ability, they had to go outside to call the forbidden army to help first.
When the forbidden army arrived, the fire had spread from the room, billowing smoke filled the entire dormitory, and the forbidden army also hurried to find water to put out the fire, but there were no fire trucks at that time, and it was too difficult to extinguish the fire.
Several guards rushed into the room, but before they could come out, they heard a loud noise. The fire broke the beams of the house, and the entire beam collapsed, burying several people alive inside.
And this matter also spread to Daming Palace at the fastest speed, but the emperor was sleeping, who would dare to disturb the holy driver? He could only tell Gao Lishi the news, and Gao Lishi did not covet the emperor after hearing it, but told people to hurry up to put out the fire, and everything had to wait for the emperor to wake up before making a decision.
Ah Fu drove the carriage to the city gate, the sky was gray, there was already a little light, and it was soon dawn.
Wu Jieyu asked Li Shan: "Where are we going?" ”
Li Shan smiled slightly, shook Wu Jieyu's hand and said, "Let's take you out of Chang'an first, it's too unsafe here." I want to send you to Nanzhao, where there is still a relative of yours. ”
Wu Jieyu was held by Li Shan's hand, and instead of struggling, she also grabbed Li Shan's hand, frowning and said, "Nanzhao? So far away. ”
Li Shan comforted: "Don't worry, I tried my best to send you to the palace to steal out, but I won't leave you alone." But if you stay in Chang'an, it's too dangerous, although Jingzhou is my hometown, no one takes care of you. And Nanzhao can be regarded as one of my homes. I will send someone to escort you all the way to Nanzhao, and when this period of time has passed, I will find a way to bring you back, or when I am done with things on my side, I will go to Nanzhao to find you. Good no good? ”
Wu Jieyu was not very happy, out of the palace, she did not have the slightest nostalgia for the emperor, but her dependence on Li Shan was obviously magnified. Now that Li Shan wants to send her away, she is naturally not happy.
Li Shan also knew Wu Jieyu's thoughts, and he was unwilling to take this step unless it was necessary. But now it is obviously not suitable to continue this topic, Li Shan asked, "It's been so long, I don't know your name yet." ”
Wu Jieyu smiled slightly and said, "My name is Wuzai." ”
Li Shan said again: "Come and let me see my son, I haven't taken a good look at him since he was born." ”
Speaking of the child, Wu Jieyu's obvious emotions have recovered a little, after all, it is really their flesh and blood, evidence of blood connection, and they can't give it up for the rest of their lives.
Wu Wuzai handed the child to Li Shan, but Li Shan did not take it, but moved his body over and hugged Wu Wuzai and the child in his arms. The little one was still sleeping, and the bumps along the way did not wake him up.
Li Shandao: "The child's name has been changed, I don't want the child to keep bearing the name of others." ”
Wu Wuzai naturally had no objections, Li Shan's concern for the child also made her even more pleased, and said with a sweet smile: "That's nature, what name do you want to make." ”
Li Shan had already thought about it, and said with a smile: "I hope that in the future, he can be an iron-clad man like his father, so let's call him Li Zheng." ”
Wu Wuzai silently recited it twice, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Well, Li Zheng." Good name, baby, your father gave you a name, and you will be called Li Zheng in the future, do you like it? ”
Li Zheng seemed to feel something, kicked his legs in his sleep, shook a little, and Wu Wuzai smiled happily.
Seeing Wu Wuzai's happy smile, Li Shan's heart moved, and he stepped forward and kissed her on the cheek. Wu Wuzai's face was stunned, and he was still a little uncomfortable. You must know that in the palace, the emperor will not do such a thing, she has not really experienced the intimacy between lovers.
Li Shan was talking love words in Wu Wuzai's ear, talking about the struggle in his heart during this time, and occasionally blowing lightly in her ear, which made Wu Wuzai's heart itch.
Suddenly, the carriage shook, and Ah Fu's voice came from outside: "Young master, the city gate is open, let's go out of the city." ”
The doorman still checked as before, and when he saw Li Shan and Wu Wuzai, they only thought that they were a family of three who were going out of the city, and they didn't have any suspicions, so they let them out of the city directly.
Directly sent out more than ten miles away, Li Shan arranged a carriage and horse to see Wu Wuzai off, more than a dozen masters of the Heaven and Earth Society, plus Ah San. Li Shan asked Ah San to escort Wu Wuzai to Yunnan.
After all, this road is far away, and only Ah San knows the road, with him, Li Shan is more relieved.
When it came to separation, Wu Wuzai felt extremely reluctant, and Li Shan was the same, the two didn't get along for long, but they figured it out. The corners of Wu Wuzai's eyes were slightly red, and he said: "You promise me to come to Yunnan to see me as soon as possible, but don't wait until the child grows up and doesn't know your father." ”
Li Shan laughed and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely go to Yunnan before the Chinese New Year this year, and I will reunite my family and have a reunion when the time comes." ”
Wu Wuzai got into the carriage, still looking out of the window, the carriage gradually moved away, the distance between the two gradually widened, Wu Wuzai suddenly shouted: "Li Shan, you must miss me." ”
Li Shan's heart was inexplicable, and he waved his hand vigorously. It stood for a long time, until the carriage disappeared from view, and Li Shan turned over and got into the car.
At this time, in the palace, Tang Xuanzong had just received the news.
Gao Lishi said: "Last night, in the Taiji Palace, Wu Jieyu's bedroom caught fire, and Wu Jieyu and the little prince were unfortunately killed. ”
Tang Xuanzong was taken aback, and suddenly got up from the bed, but it seemed that because of excessive force, his expression suddenly was very painful, he let out a groan, covered his head, and sat down slowly, pointing at Gao Lishi and said: "How is it possible, dozens of palace maids and eunuchs, protected by three hundred forbidden troops, you told me that there was a fire in the palace of Wu Jieyu?" Are these people blind, rice buckets? ”
When Gao Lishi saw it, he hurriedly shouted outside: "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor, the emperor's head wind has been offended." You ran forward, pressed the emperor's head and said: "The emperor is angry, I have sent someone to investigate strictly, and the matter will definitely come to a conclusion." ”
Tang Xuanzong said angrily: "There is a fart in the water, can it be worth the life of my concubine?" Can you give back my emperor's life? You hurry up and call the chief eunuch and the commander of the guards of the Taiji Palace, and I will interrogate them myself. (To be continued.) )
