Chapter 115: Changes in the Outer City
readx;?“ Oh? Is there such a thing? Gao Huaiyuan immediately got on his boots and jumped off the bed, he still felt a little dizzy when he woke up, but what Li Ruohu said was indeed not to be underestimated, it seemed that it was impossible for him to sleep for a while!
Sitting by the window, Gao Huaiyuan asked Li Ruohu about the news he had gotten, the source could not be wrong, it was the news that Jia Qi sent someone to the main gate of Li, which also confirmed Gao Huaiyuan's original expectation, the people on the prince's side really did not admit defeat, and they had to take action at this time, they must not be able to get too much power to support them in the inner city, so they would go to the side of the infantry military division to find a way.

But who would care so much about his house in the outer city? Could it be that they will think of something that they can't do with their own families? Gao Huaiyuan couldn't sit still any longer, so he immediately put on his clothes and strode with Li Ruohu out of the Yiwang Mansion in the direction of Donghua Gate.
Standing on the city gate tower and looking out, the originally very prosperous street was cold and cold at this time, except for a few family dogs roaming the street looking for something to eat, basically there was no one in sight, and across a few streets he could feel that the atmosphere in the outer city was a little wrong.
So he immediately asked for a small monocular from Li Ruohu, opened it and leaned into his eyes to look out of the city, and really saw some figures in the house in the distance, and there was a faint sense of murder, so he knew that there must be armor hidden there, otherwise the atmosphere here would never be so depressing.
So Gao Huaiyuan immediately called the guards guarding the Donghua Gate, this person is also his newly promoted henchman, Gao Huaiyuan saw him coming, he immediately ordered: "The main gate of the Donghua Gate and even the side gate are all reinforced, and more crossbowmen are prepared to go to the city to lookout, once you find that there are soldiers and horses trying to enter the city, no matter who they have, they will block me, and if you dare to have the slightest intention to attack, you will immediately shoot arrows!" ”
The guards immediately bowed down to receive the order, and immediately began to arrange, a team of crossbowmen were immediately transferred to the city wall of the inner city, and pieces of cloth curtains, leather curtains, wooden standing cards and other anti-arrow objects were also sent to the city wall, ready to guard at any time, as for other defensive weapons, there are not many preparations, because even if there is really something, it is difficult for the army outside the city to support the prince to use heavy siege equipment, which is not too worrying.
After arranging this matter, Gao Huaiyuan immediately ordered Erhu to go out of the city from the main gate of Li with his hand, rush back to his mansion as quickly as possible, and immediately send Liu Er and everyone in the mansion out of the house from the secret door pre-set in advance.
After thinking about it for a while, Gao Huaiyuan felt that this matter could not sit idly by and wait, so he immediately rushed to Shi Miyuan's prime minister's mansion non-stop, but he pounced, the old thief was not at home, and ran to the palace again.
So after Gao Huaiyuan thought about it for a while, he immediately turned to Xue Ji's mansion, and the result was also empty, this guy actually ran to the palace, so Gao Huaiyuan was embarrassed, he didn't even have someone to discuss now, and he had a heavy responsibility, and he couldn't leave the inner city without permission, otherwise he wouldn't be able to find him in trouble if there would be any chaos here.
After thinking about it for a while, he immediately turned around and ran outside the palace again, and asked Gong Shengzhi's forbidden guards to pass it on his behalf and tell Shi Miyuan that he had something important to report to him.
After waiting like this for nearly half an hour, Shi Miyuan recruited Gao Huaiyuan to see him outside the Vertical Arch Palace, and Gao Huaiyuan was brought into the palace, and saw Shi Miyuan in the side hall outside the Vertical Arch Palace.
"Why is Gao Dutong so anxious to see the old man?" Shi Miyuan obviously took a nap here, and he probably just woke up at this time, and there was still a little eye droppings on the corners of his old eyes, looking sluggish.
Gao Huaiyuan said in his heart, the old thief is really doing his best for this matter! actually insisted on staying in the palace and not going home to rest, it seems that this time he is really determined to win, so he stepped forward and hurriedly reported the matter of the outer city to Shi Miyuan.
When Shi Miyuan heard this, he stood up in shock and asked urgently, "Is this really true?" ”
"The last general doesn't dare to be alarmist, the last general has already checked at Donghua Gate, but there are soldiers and horses concentrated in the outer city, so he will look for Xiangye everywhere to report this matter!" Gao Huaiyuan hurriedly replied with his fists clenched.
Shi Miyuan immediately slapped the case and said angrily: "Damn! Is it difficult for that Fang Shuda to help the prince's party? Does he dare to lead his troops to attack the inner city? Well? What's going on with your hands? How did I get hurt? ”
Gao Huaiyuan hurriedly explained how he was injured, and then said: "It shouldn't be that Fang Du's command has a problem, because the humble position just watched the troops gathered outside the Donghua Gate, the total number is only about two or three thousand, if Fang Shuda has the intention to raise troops to help the prince's party, the troops that should be mobilized are far more than that!" After all, there are nearly 30,000 troops on the side of the Outer City Infantry Division, and they will not only gather troops and horses at Donghua Gate! ”
Shi Miyuan was already sleepy at this time, and after listening to Gao Huaiyuan's words, he said to Gao Huaiyuan: "Gao Dutong suffered, you blocked the prince's sword and the old man wrote it down, and you made a contribution to the old man!" The old man will definitely reward you again!
If you say that it is not Fang Shuda who has a problem, it should be reasonable, after all, Fang Shuda is also a smart person, and he will not fail to see the current situation, if according to what you said, what do you think should be done now? ”
After Gao Huaiyuan thought for a while, he immediately replied: "Thank you Xiangye for your support, Xiangye has already given a lot to the lower officials, and the lower officials don't dare to ask for more rewards!" This is the duty of the lower officials! As for Lord Fang, it is best to send someone to contact him, so as not to keep this matter in the dark, if Lord Fang has no intention of helping the prince, he should immediately send someone to withdraw the soldiers and horses outside the Donghua Gate, if the soldiers and horses outside the Donghua Gate do not retreat, it can show that Fang Shuda has antipathy! ”
Shi Miyuan nodded and walked around the room twice: "That's right, but who do you think you should send to find Fang Shuda?" If you send someone to the past, I'm afraid you won't be able to solve the problem! ”
Gao Huaiyuan's heart moved, and he immediately took a step forward with his fists and said, "It's better to let the lower officials go!" Xiaguan used to have some friendship with Master Fang, and they can be regarded as friends, so it's best for Xiaguan to go on a trip in this matter! ”
Shi Miyuan immediately raised his eyes and looked at Gao Huaiyuan, with a look of approval in his eyes, but immediately shook his head and said, "How can this work?" Right now, your Holy Protector is the most important thing, shouldering the heavy responsibility of guarding the inner city, and you, as the main general, how can you go out of the city now and risk your life? It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate! It's better to choose someone else! ”
The reason why Gao Huaiyuan wanted to go out of the city at this time was actually because he knew the danger contained in it, but he was very worried about the safety of Liu Er and the others at home at this time, and felt that it was better to take this opportunity to go out, and by the way, to find out about the situation in the outer city, so he thought of taking a trip out of the outer city in danger.
So he immediately gave up his hand and said: "Xiangye rest assured, Xiangye is as kind to the lower officials as a mountain, what can the lower officials count as taking this risk?" What's more, Fang Shuda has a close personal relationship with the lower officials, so he shouldn't harm the lower officials! Moreover, there are henchmen of the lower officials stationed everywhere in the Holy Protector Army, even if the lower officials are not there, there will be no major incidents, this matter is very important, and it is better for the lower officials to run! ”
Shi Miyuan looked at Gao Huaiyuan a little differently, at this critical juncture, there are too few people like Gao Huaiyuan, and ordinary people are afraid that they can't avoid it, but he is willing to risk his life to settle this matter, it can be seen that Gao Huaiyuan is really very loyal to him, so he lowered his head and thought for a while, then immediately turned around and wrote a handwritten letter, and then folded it and handed it to Gao Huaiyuan: "Since this is the case, then I have to ask you to go for a trip!" But before leaving, you must arrange your subordinates, don't make any mistakes, and bring more people to pay attention to your own safety! You go back quickly, the old man is waiting for your good news! ”
Gao Huaiyuan took Shi Miyuan's hand, put it in his arms, and said goodbye to Shi Miyuan and went out of the palace, while sending his own soldiers to inform his subordinate generals everywhere on the road, strictly guarding against their respective jurisdictions, and not slacking off, while going straight to the main gate of Li, from there the door opened the door out of the inner city, only took Li Ruohu and a few other good subordinates, and sneaked out of the inner city and submerged into the streets of the outer city just after dark.
However, Gao Huaiyuan did not go directly to the Yamen of the Bujun Division to find Fang Shuda, but after turning a few corners, he saw that he was not being followed, and then he got into Jia Qi's courtyard, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Liu Er and Jia Qi and others coming over.
"Official, why are you back?" Liu Er was quite surprised by Gao Huaiyuan's appearance, even if she was a woman, she knew about the great changes in the capital in the past two days, but she didn't expect Gao Huaiyuan to suddenly return to the outer city at this time, so she hurriedly asked.
Gao Huaiyuan hid his bandaged hand, and when he saw Liu'er and the others here, he was immediately relieved, as long as he got here, no one would be able to find Liu'er, so even if someone wanted to be unfavorable to Liu'er, there was no way to start.
"My husband is worried about your safety, so I came out to see you!" Gao Huaiyuan replied with a smile.
After hearing this, Liu Er's heart suddenly warmed, so moved, she was a little uneasy all day today, the people in the family kept finding people wandering outside the house, and monitored their house, until the afternoon Erhu rushed home, let them immediately sneak out of the house from the secret passage, and arranged for them to go to Jia Qi, she was relieved, it seems that Gao Huaiyuan did not forget his safety even if he was busy, what a comfort it is for a woman like her!
