The next day, the British Mansion.

Li Hong didn't choose the very ostentatious prince's carriage to go out, but just took an ordinary carriage that was not gorgeous, and rushed to the British mansion.

However, there are a lot of guards in front of and behind him, and although the carriage is simple, it looks very quaint, so that people can know at a glance that it is not an ordinary family.

And although Li Hong was not too publicized this time, he did not deliberately cover up his figure, so the big and small forces in Chang'an City almost immediately knew the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rushed to the British Mansion.

It's just that among these people, there are a large number of people waiting to see Li Hong's jokes!

Especially Li Xian, he couldn't help but scold Li Hong for being stupid in his heart.

Who doesn't know that the British Duke has already closed his door and has not seen outsiders, even if he is summoned by the emperor's will, his old man also said that he is not sick, and now even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince goes, I am afraid that he will have to eat a closed door.

But if you see it, it will be even better, just imagine, even the emperor can't invite the British prince, to be seen by His Royal Highness the Prince, I am afraid that the situation caused by it will not be a good thing for Li Hong!

If he went quietly, it would be just that, and he would still be so swaggering, lest others not know, it would be extremely stupid!

Zichen Palace.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just arrived at the British Mansion!"

Wu Liangfu bowed and said to Li Zhi and Empress Wu with a respectful face.

"Oh? So, is he sure that the British will see him? Mei Niang, what do you think? ”

For some reason, a playful smile appeared on Li Zhi's face, and he turned to the Empress Wu and asked.

At this moment, Empress Wu was concentrating on an ancient book in her hand, and after listening to Li Zhi's question, she raised her head and smiled slightly, and spoke.

"Hong'er, that ghost spirit, since he dares to go, he should naturally be sure, but the concubine is a little worried, no matter what means he uses this time to let the British see him, I'm afraid it is not a good thing in the eyes of outsiders!"

After that, a trace of worry appeared in his eyebrows.

However, Li Zhi shook his head lightly and spoke.

"Don't you know Hong'er, if he doesn't think about this, I'm afraid he won't make a fuss all over Chang'an City that he went to the British Mansion, since he went, there must have been a way to solve this matter, but I am a little curious, with the temper of the British Princess, what means can Hong'er use to sneak into the British Mansion?"

Seeing this scene, Empress Wu couldn't help but chuckle.

This father and son are really alike, they always have such inexplicable confidence, looking up at the sky, the expression of the martial queen was slightly confused.

"Didn't you say that Hong'er left the East Palace early this morning? Why did you only get to the British Mansion now? ”

This sentence was asked to Wu Liangfu, who was standing on the side, you know, it is now close to noon, although the East Palace and the British Mansion are not close, but it will not take so long!

And Wu Liangfu didn't dare to slack off, so he opened his mouth and said.

"Back to Niangniang, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came out of the East Palace, he first went to the East Palace to inspect the six rates, and then rushed to the British Mansion!"

"So, Hong'er is pinching the point, could it be that he wants the British Duke to invite him to dinner?"

Empress Wu thought of a possibility, but she couldn't help laughing.

It's just that Li Zhi didn't have this mood to laugh, but his expression was a little solemn, and his eyes looked in the direction of the British Mansion outside the window, and he muttered.

"But then again, I'm afraid the British Duke can't sit still! The Crusade has dragged on for so long, and it should be a decision......"

…………

At the entrance of the British Mansion, two large stone lions with delicate carvings and majestic red tasseled axes are still firmly placed in front of the mansion gate, indicating that the owner of this mansion is unusual.

It's just that in the open space in front of the mansion, except for some guards, there is no one else, and it looks deserted.

You must know that although there are many old protégés, most of them are from generals, and under normal circumstances, Li Ji does not allow them to visit.

And ordinary people don't dare to approach here, so they naturally seem much more deserted.

Especially in recent times, the British government has closed its doors to visitors, and no one dares to come to the door, until today, Li Hong's frame slowly stopped in front of the mansion gate.

This time, Li Hong relied on the number of courtesies, first handed over the prayer post, and then took Wang Fusheng to wait in front of the door.

Because Li Hong did not use the frame of the East Palace this time, nor did he wear the prince's robe, and only the word Li Hong was simply written on the worship post, the porter did not associate him with the prince of the East Palace.

Therefore, he couldn't help but look at the two of them like monsters for a long time, and then turned around and walked in with some hesitation.

You know, their master has been closed for a long time, this person looks very imposing, and he has a lot of guards, don't you know?

However, because of Wang Fusheng's insistence, the porter had no choice but to run inside.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Not long after, an old man with a slightly stiff figure hurriedly walked out and bowed to salute.

You must know that although the porter is illiterate and can't recognize Li Hong's identity, this old man is the chief housekeeper of the British Mansion, how can he not know Li Hong's identity.

Hearing that the porter said that the owner of the worship post was in person, he naturally hurriedly ran out to greet him.

"Hehe, there's no need to be polite, Master Li's body is good?"

Seeing the appearance of the big butler, Li Hong's eyebrows raised, as expected.

You must know that no matter how noble Li Ji's identity is, he can't compare to the prince of the East Palace, according to reason, Li Hong came in person, and he was going to greet him in front of the mansion.

But there is no way, the old man has the title of prince and master, and no one dares to say anything if he doesn't come out.

It's just that at this moment, the big butler came out alone, but it represented an attitude......

"Your Highness, it's really unfortunate, my lord has not been in good health recently, and he has been infected with the wind and cold, which will inevitably infect others, so he will not see any guests, Your Highness, please go back!"

The old butler was very polite, but when he said it, it was the same as treating everyone else.

And when he spoke, his back was straight, and when he stood on the steps of the British Mansion, there was an iron-blooded momentum gushing out.

This old housekeeper is Li Ji's old subordinate, and he is also a person who has fought countless times on the battlefield, although he is not famous now, but he is not an idle person.

I think it was because I saw that Li Hong brought a lot of people this time, and I was afraid that he would be angry and force his way into the mansion, but how could Li Hong do such a stupid thing?

"That's really unfortunate, do you want to ask the imperial doctor to help Master Li take a look?"

Li Hong's expression looked a little annoyed, but he still seemed to be unwilling to ask.

"There's no need for this, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty has already sent the imperial doctor to see it earlier, the lord is fine, he just needs to recuperate! If Your Highness wants to find the master, please go back! ”

The old butler's face was serious, but his tone was still respectful.

But the next moment, the expression on the old butler's face was slightly stagnant.

Because Li Hong not only did not have any remorse on his face, but with a faint smile, he clapped his hands and spoke.

"In that case, let the British Duke rest well! But coincidentally, today Lone didn't come to find Master Li, but to find your eldest young master! (To be continued.) )
