Hearing the noise outside the house, Li Yuntian's expression immediately became vigilant: This courtyard is Lei Ting's residence, and outsiders should not be able to enter without her permission, could it be that something happened to Yan Zòng?

"You hide, I'll go out and see. The update is the fastest and most stable

Lei Ting also felt strange and nodded at Li Yuntian, she would not hand over Li Yuntian no matter what.

"Don't come hard, if you really can't do it, hand me over, and then go to the inn to take the holy decree in the pillow and go to Nanjing City, find Yu Qian of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he will help you hand over the holy decree to the prince." As long as you tell the prince what the queen said to me, the prince will definitely believe you. ”

Lei Ting was just about to leave, Li Yuntian grabbed her hand and solemnly instructed, "Remember, the most important thing now is the holy decree." ”

Li Yuntian was worried that the people who went to catch the traitor today were too big for Lei Ting to bear, although the Cao Gang was strong in Huai'an City, but Huai'an City had the Yamen of the Governor of Caoyun, the Yamen of the Huai'an Prefect, and the Yamen of the Huai'an Guard, none of which the Cao Gang could afford to provoke, in the final analysis, the Cao Gang was just a non-governmental association.

"Hmm." Seeing that Li Yuntian cared about her, Lei Ting smiled at him, nodded heavily, and then opened the door and walked out.

Li Yuntian hid by the window, stretched out his hand and pierced the window paper and quietly looked out, there were many big men with knives in the courtyard, standing there with torches, led by two middle-aged people.

One of them he knew, it was Lei Ting's father Lei Xiaotian, and the other middle-aged man had a blue face and a scar on his face, he didn't know who it was, but he obviously had a deep background, otherwise he wouldn't have alarmed Lei Xiaotian.

"Dad, Uncle Fan, why are you here?" Lei Ting pretended to have just gotten up, rubbing her eyes, and walked towards Lei Xiaotian and the middle-aged man with a scarface.

"It turns out that he is Fan Qingshan!" Hearing this, Li Yuntian suddenly understood, the middle-aged man with a scarface was the deputy gang leader of the Cao Gang, and he had been fighting with Lei Xiao Tianming to compete for the power of the Cao Gang.

"Ting'er, your Uncle Fan's house was stolen, they chased it to the back alley of our house, and saw the thief climbing over the wall into the yard, so they came to check, so that the thief stole the things in our house." Seeing that Lei Ting was safe and sound, Lei Xiaotian couldn't help but smile slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Niece, thank you Uncle Fan, I don't know what the thief stole to make my uncle come in person?" Lei Ting's eyes flashed with a look of surprise, it turned out that the person who went to lead someone to catch Li Yuntian and the long-haired woman who had raped him turned out to be Fan Qingshan, so he asked suspiciously.

"A pair of ancestral jade bracelets, although the things are not very valuable, but they are handed down from the ancestors, and they cannot be explained to the ancestors if they are lost."

Fan Qingshan squeezed out a smile on his face, replied absentmindedly, and then glanced at the maid standing behind Lei Ting, feeling that Li Yuntian would not be here, so he smiled and said, "Tingting, you have to be careful before you catch that thief, that thief is not bad." ”

"Uncle Fan, don't worry, as long as he dares to come, his niece will definitely let him go out sideways." Lei Ting pulled out the long sword in the hand of a maid beside her, and said proudly after holding a sword flower.

"Brother Fan, in this case, the thief must have escaped." Seeing this, Lei Xiaotian immediately said to Fan Qingshan with a look of regret, "Tomorrow, I will let all the people in the gang go out, even if I turn the entire Huai'an City over, I will find the thief." ”

"Brother Lei, this matter doesn't need to be troubled, just solve it by yourself, since the thief dares to steal from the little brother's head, he must have been prepared to leave a way back, and the little brother will investigate secretly, so as not to startle the snake." Fan Qingshan's eyes flashed with a look of embarrassment, and he politely rejected Lei Xiaotian's kindness, he didn't want the concubine to steal people's ugliness publicly.

Lei Xiaotian and Fan Qingshan then left the courtyard, and Lei Ting personally sent the two to the courtyard gate, and then hurried back to the boudoir.

Li Yuntian sat on the chair with a depressed face, he never thought that the long-haired woman he met today would be Fan Qingshan's woman, fortunately he slipped away quickly at that time, otherwise Fan Qingshan's posture would have to slash him with a knife.

"The woman you met today won't be Fan Qingshan's seventh aunt, right? That woman used to be the first Oiran in Yangzhou, but she was redeemed by Fan Qingshan at a high price last year. Lei Ting sat down opposite Li Yuntian and asked with interest, Fan Qingshan is too fond of Aunt Seven, otherwise he wouldn't have made such a big fuss and came here to find someone in person.

Li Yuntian shook his head with a wry smile when he heard this, how did he know the identity of the long-haired woman.

"That woman is a vixen, if Fan Qingshan hadn't arrived in time, would you ......" Lei Ting flashed her long eyelashes, stared at Li Yuntian with a smile and asked.

"I am a dignified Ming imperial history, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, how can I do such an immoral thing." Li Yuntian's face was slightly red, how could he admit that he really had the idea of "sacrificing his life for the country", so he straightened his chest and replied sternly, "I wanted to knock out that woman and escape, but I didn't think that Fan Qingshan broke in and almost fell short." ”

"I'll just say, how could you possibly fall in love with that kind of seductive woman." Where would Lei Ting have thought that Li Yuntian, as an imperial historian, would also deceive people, seeing his righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, he naturally believed his words and said with a smile.

Li Yuntian's eyes suddenly showed a look of shame when he heard this, he really didn't take a fancy to Fan Qingshan's seventh aunt, but in order to ensure that he could deliver the holy decree smoothly, there were some things that could only be reluctantly embarrassed.

At night, like when he was in the capital, Li Yuntian slept on the ground and chatted quietly with Lei Ting, who was lying on the **.

In fact, Li Yuntian didn't want to stay in Lei Ting's boudoir, but if he didn't stay, there would be nowhere to go, Fan Qingshan had already mobilized people to patrol the streets and alleys outside, and put on a posture of wanting to kill him.

I'm afraid Fan Qingshan would never have imagined that Li Yuntian was hiding in Lei Ting's boudoir, and he didn't know that there was a life-and-death friendship between the two.

Li Yuntian had already been delayed in Huai'an for a day, so he would definitely go to Yangzhou tomorrow, and then arrive in Nanjing via Yangzhou.

Obviously, Li Yuntian, who has lost the road guide, needs Lei Ting's help, because on the way from Yangzhou to Nanjing, he will definitely meet people from the local inspection department to check the road guide of passing pedestrians, and once he is found out, he will definitely be thrown into prison, which will be a big trouble.

Moreover, if the Cao Gang secretly helps, it can also make the prince reach the capital more smoothly.

Lei Ting looked very excited, she couldn't imagine that she would be involved in the change of the Ming dynasty twice in a year, even those high-ranking officials and magnates of the Ming Dynasty were beyond their reach, and they sighed to themselves.

Early the next morning, Lei Ting sent someone to the inn to retrieve Li Yuntian's pillow with the holy decree, and the holy purpose was safe and sound in the pillow, which made the two of them breathe a sigh of relief.

According to Li Yuntian's plan, Lei Ting will leave for Nanjing in the morning, the reason is to visit his grandmother who lives in Nanjing City, and he will be mixed with Lei Ting's entourage at that time, and with Lei Ting as a cover, he will definitely be able to enter Nanjing City smoothly.

Lei Ting wanted to leave and naturally wanted to sue Lei Xiaotian, although Lei Xiaotian felt that things were a little sudden, but he didn't think much about it: Lei Ting has been sullen since she came back from the capital last year, and it is good to go to Nanjing City to relax, how could she expect Li Yuntian to come to Huai'an?

After returning from Lei Xiaotian, Lei Ting did not stop for a moment, and led people straight to the dock, a big ship with the flag of the Cao Gang was already waiting there, and immediately set sail south after everyone uploaded it, and the ships along the way, whether official ships or civilian ships, avoided one after another.

Li Yuntian was dressed in the clothes of an entourage, lazily lying in the cabin with his eyes closed, with Lei Ting by his side, he could finally sleep peacefully and recuperate.

At the same time, the capital, the Imperial Garden.

Cui Hui, the Guizhou Provincial Superintendent of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, stood in a pavilion with an expressionless face, staring at the Qin'an Hall not far away in a daze, Li Yuntian was fortunate to be the "golden boy" by Emperor Hong Xi's side, which shows that Emperor Hong Xi's trust and respect for Li Yuntian, which also means that he will be more and more sad in the future.

Emperor Hongxi fasted and prayed for the Ming Dynasty in the Qin'an Palace, which was an important matter of the country, so the Imperial Procuratorate naturally sent the imperial historian to be on duty to maintain the order of the scene.

In the past two days, it has been Cui Hui's turn to be on duty, and Cui Hui is now dreaming of King Han "killing" him back to the capital and inheriting the unification, so that he can raise his eyebrows and puff up, and he doesn't have to be as worried as he is now, and he is always on guard against Li Yuntian looking for trouble with him.

"It's strange, the emperor actually finished eating steamed tofu, but he didn't even move his chopsticks before." Soon after, two attendants carrying food boxes walked in the direction of the Qin'an Palace, and when they passed the pavilion, one attendant couldn't help but whisper curiously to the other attendant.

"Since fasting, the emperor's appetite seems to have changed, and the dishes he ordered are a little different from before." The other attendant nodded, and replied in a whispered puzzled voice.

At this time, the two attendants noticed Cui Hui in the pavilion, quickly closed their mouths, lowered their heads and left in a hurry.

"The emperor's appetite has changed?" Although the two chamberlains spoke in a low voice, Cui Hui could clearly hear the content of their conversation, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Generally speaking, once a person's taste is formed, it is difficult to change, especially Emperor Hong Xi, who is the son of the great tomorrow, will not be wronged in terms of diet.

Could it be that Emperor Hongxi changed his appetite because he was enlightened by Emperor Zhenwu in his dream? But there's no need to finish a plate of steamed tofu that hasn't touched a single chopstick before!

Faced with the inadvertently obtained information in front of him, Cui Hui frowned and fell into deep thought, puzzled.

"Could it be that something happened to the emperor?" After a long time, Cui Hui's eyes suddenly showed a shocked look, and he couldn't help but look at the Qin'an Palace.

Individually, the change in Emperor Hong Xi's appetite doesn't mean anything, but if you associate things like Emperor Hong Xi suddenly fasting and no one seeing Emperor Hong Xi again, then Cui Hui came up with a terrible answer:

Now the person in the Qin'an Palace is not Emperor Hongxi, but a stand-in, which leads to the change of taste.

This leads to a question, where did Emperor Hong Xi go? Why did he do this, and for what purpose? Or do you have to make a decision?

Cui Hui's heart was in turmoil for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Emperor Hongxi's fasting was very strange, after all, how could someone who could become the imperial history of the Ming Dynasty be an idle person? One
