—— In the Taiji Palace, the East Palace where the prince lives.

Li Fuguo, who had been promoted to the head of the East Palace, hurriedly ran in from outside the palace, ignoring the surprise of the other palace people, and ran into the Chongwen Hall where the crown prince Li Heng lived. "His Royal Highness the Prince, Yu Chaoen is missing!"

Li Fuguo didn't have time to salute, so he hurriedly reported the situation to the crown prince Li Heng, who was looking at him suspiciously.

"What?" Li Heng, who was already worried, was taken aback when he heard this, and stood up from the couch at once. "Where did Yu Chao En go? Why did you disappear? ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, after Duke Yu went out of the palace to inquire about the situation on the orders of the prince, he never came back, he went out early in the morning!" Li Fuguo gasped and replied.

Li Heng frowned, "Could it be that he was caught by Jingzhao Mansion?" ”

"Probably not!" Li Fuguo's anger finally calmed down, and he also had a head to speak, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the slave maid sent someone to Jingzhao Mansion to investigate, but they didn't capture anyone, let alone Yu Chaoen. If they captured the people of the East Palace, it would be impossible for them to remain silent. They also didn't dare to arrest the people of the East Palace, unless they ......"

Of course, Li Heng knew the meaning of Li Fuguo's "unless", that is, the searcher captured the assassin, and then traced it to Yu Chaoen according to the clues provided by the assassin, so he dared to capture this eunuch who had a high position in the East Palace, otherwise no one would dare to attack Yu Chaoen. Or maybe someone else caught Yu Chaoen. Thinking of this, Li Heng's face became even more gloomy, he didn't speak, but got up, paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, and after a while, he stopped pacing and instructed Li Fuguo: "Go and spread Xiao Hua, Pei Mian, Du Hongji, Cui Yi ...... immediately" After Li Heng said a list of people's names, he ordered Li Fuguo to say: "You leave the palace immediately, and quickly pass these people to see Gu!"

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince!" After Li Fuguo agreed, he immediately went out and instructed his subordinates to summon these people to the East Palace to discuss matters.

After Li Fuguo left, Li Heng's irritability was not eliminated at all, his face was pale, and he kept pacing in the hall, and he lowered his head and sighed twice from time to time.

Bunbu Langzhong Pei Mian was the first to come to the East Palace. Although Pei Mian's position in the DPRK is not very high, because he likes Li Heng in many things, he has always been reused by Li Heng, and the prince brother will ask Pei Mian first about many things.

Today, Pei Mian heard Li Heng's urgent news in the mansion, and knew that there must be an urgent matter, so he didn't dare to delay in the slightest, and immediately rode to the East Palace.

After making a salute, Li Heng summoned Pei Mian to the inner room, did not hide his panic at all, and immediately told Pei Mian about the matter: "Pei Langzhong, the big thing is not good, Yu Chaoen is gone." ”

"Huh?!" Pei Mian was stunned all of a sudden, as one of the main planners of the incident, he knew what it represented that Yu Chaoen, the main executor of the event, had disappeared at this time. "Your Highness, when did Grandpa Yu disappear? Did you see where he went? ”

"Nobody knows!" Li Heng shook his head, "Gu just heard Li Fuguo's report and knew that he was gone, and he just went out of the palace to do business!"

"What about the people who follow Daddy Yu?" Pei Mian couldn't take care of a lot anymore, and once again ignored etiquette and asked Li Heng.

"All gone!" Li Heng replied in a muffled voice, there were a total of five people who followed Yu Chaoen out of the palace, and these five people did not know where to go.

"That must have been captured by Yang Xi's men!" Pei Mian's heart almost sank to the bottom. "His Royal Highness the Prince, it must be that Father-in-law Yu was recognized by someone, they must have been caught by Yang Xi's people!"

At this time, Du Hong, a member of the military department, gradually entered the hall.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I heard that several of the assassins who assassinated Yang Guozhong have been arrested!" As soon as Du Hong gradually entered the hall, he immediately brought another extremely bad news to Li Heng.

"What?" Li Heng's eyes widened, regardless of his status as the prince, he strode up to Du Hongji, almost grabbed the other party's collar and asked, "What you said is true?" ”

Du Hong was gradually taken aback, and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister heard the news that an assassin had been captured, but it was not captured by the Jingzhao Mansion's arrest, but by Yang Xi's men, and it seems that he still got it outside Chang'an City......"

Listening to what Du Hongjian said, Li Heng's heart had almost sunk to the bottom. He is completely aware of the ability of Yang Xi's subordinates, these people can kill one of the main generals, Ling Guchao, among the hundreds of thousands of rebels, and seriously injure the rebel commander Sun Xiaozhe, a group of people with such ability, to capture a few Jianghu rangers, is it not a piece of cake? There are hundreds of members of the special operations team, and there are only 10 people who assassinated Yang Guozhong, even if they work together to resist the pursuit of the special operations team, as long as their whereabouts are discovered, they can only be captured obediently, otherwise they will hit a stone with an egg.

At this time, Xiao Hua also arrived at the Chongwen Palace.

After understanding the situation clearly, Xiao Hua also complained bitterly, "Your Highness, the assassin was captured by Yang Xi, I believe he already knows who instructed the assassin to assassinate Yang Guozhong, otherwise Father-in-law Yu would not have disappeared for no reason." Father-in-law Yu is the person in charge of contacting the assassins, if he falls into the hands of Yang Xi, then Your Majesty will soon know that all this was planned by you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"

"Then you say, what should I do?" Li Heng couldn't help but interrupt Xiao Hua's words.

"Your Highness, this matter is very important and needs to be carefully considered!" Xiao Hua was sweating profusely, and he saluted vigorously, his face was a little miserable. He knew it was terrible. They carefully planned and spent a lot of money to invite the Jianghu rangers to assassinate Yang Guozhong and blame Li Ying, the king of Yan, for their plan to fail.

This plan was proposed by Xiao Hua, and people recruited assassins in the name of Li Jue, the king of Yan, to assassinate Yang Guozhong. If the assassination is successful, it can remove Yang Guozhong, the biggest threat in the court, and blame Li Jue, the king of Yan, who has soared in popularity. If it is confirmed that Li Ying sent someone to bribe the assassin to assassinate Yang Guozhong, then Li Ying will inevitably lose power, and it is even possible to be killed. They knew that what they were doing was too obvious and would make people suspicious, so when they asked the Assassins to assassinate Yang Guozhong, they repeatedly asked them not to leave a trace and flee quickly, making the matter confusing.

Yang Guozhong was assassinated, and the imperial court would definitely investigate it strictly, and they would let the traces slowly reveal and eventually lead to the Yanwang Mansion. When all the evidence points to the mastermind of this matter, it will be the end of this matter. Unfortunately, although the assassin's assassination was successful, Yang Guo was loyal and was only seriously injured and did not die. Because of this, Xiao Hua was severely reprimanded by Li Heng, and Yu Chaoen, who was in charge of the matter, was also scolded several times by Li Heng. But I didn't expect that now things have become like this, and I can't even clean it up.

The development of the matter was something that no one expected, but the plan they thought was carefully planned was so vulnerable, and in just a few days, the assassin was captured by Yang Xi, and even Yu Chaoen disappeared. There must be only one result of Yu Chaoen's disappearance, and that is that he was captured by Yang Xi's men. When Yu Chaoen was in contact with the assassin, although he carefully disguised himself, he had a beard and everything, but his voice was difficult to hide, and he also had a pair of somewhat cold eyes, I believe that Yang Xi's subordinates suspected Yu Chaoen according to these characteristics explained by the assassin, and finally secretly arrested the head of foreign affairs of the East Palace.

"How do you think you should think about it?" Seeing that Xiao Hua, who made this suggestion, had no good way to mention it, Li Heng became more and more annoyed, and even had the urge to kill someone in his heart. According to his surname, he didn't want to kill Yang Guozhong to kill one stone, but in the end, under the persuasion of Xiao Hua and others, he agreed to this risky plan, but it failed, and he had the urge to kill.

"Your Highness, Rong Chen thought about it again!" Xiao Hua sweated like rain, but he couldn't think of any way to deal with it all of a sudden.

Li Heng snorted angrily a few times, and then paced up with his hands behind his back.

At this time, several more people asked to see each other, and the people Li Heng wanted to pass on came to the East Palace.

Li Heng probably told the people he had summoned about the matter, and then asked anxiously: "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that Yang Xi has captured Yu Chaoen, and asked about the whole story, and will soon show your majesty." His Majesty could not have been indifferent after hearing his report. Ladies and gentlemen, a catastrophe is coming, hurry up and say a suggestion, how to deal with Lonely? ”

The more Li Heng thought about it, the more scared he became, a little like an ant on the hot nest.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, they don't know how to answer Li Heng's question. The development of things was far beyond their expectations, and no one could have imagined that in just a few days, things would become like this. Yang Guozhong did not die, and the blame did not fall on Li Jue's head, but "deserved his name", and everything was led to Li Heng, the "initiator", and their followers also suffered.

"You tell Lonely, now that things have become like this, how do you want Lone to deal with it?" Li Heng roared angrily.

"Your Highness, the only way now is to take a risk, follow the actions of Emperor Taizong and His Majesty, and launch a mutiny!" After turning countless thoughts, Xiao Hua finally came up with this plan that was almost a ruin. "Your Highness, we will take advantage of the fact that Your Majesty has not yet made a final decision, gather the six rates of the East Palace, and part of the Yulin Army and the Right Dragon Martial Guard Army under His Royal Highness's control, and launch a military admonition to force Your Majesty to pass on the throne to you, the crown prince! As long as you can go to Xingqing Palace and trap Your Majesty, everything will be in the hands of Your Highness. Your Highness becomes the emperor, then no one can fight against you, everything is under your control!"

Although Xiao Hua's words surprised everyone, including Li Heng, after thinking about it for a while, they immediately agreed with Xiao Hua's proposal.

This suggestion had been proposed before, but was vetoed by Li Heng. Now in times of crisis, there is no choice but to take this helpless solution.

Otherwise, everyone present will not end well.

Li Heng's brows were still furrowed, and he asked the people in a muffled voice: "Hurry up and tell me, if we really want to launch a mutiny, how will we act!"

"Your Highness, I think this should be ......" (To be continued.) )
