After receiving the news from Wang Liangdi, Li Chang had long known that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was sick and couldn't even get out of the door of the Warm Pavilion, so he didn't doubt him, so he rushed back to the East Palace as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the East Palace, I saw that although my father was indeed recuperating in the warm pavilion, his face was ruddy, his complexion was not bad, and his body seemed to be fine, so he muttered a little.

Although Guo Jun's affairs in the court are not quite the same, she said that she does not like to participate, but it does not mean that she, the county lord, is completely unaware of the court situation. After all, she had been in and out of Zichen Hall from time to time before she left the pavilion, just looking at a few major events that everyone knew, and seeing that Guo Yan had been so busy with his foot in the back of his head recently, she had already seen some problems.

But Wang Liangdi kept pulling her to talk about homely things, babbling endlessly, and not talking much about her father's illness. Li Chang asked casually, "Is my brother in Chongwen Palace?" ”

Wang Liangdi said with a smile: "I don't think it's there, who knows that he will be with those ministers all day long, and he won't know what to do." ”

Li Chang said: "Even so, I went to Yiqiu Palace to see my sister-in-law, I haven't seen her for some days." ”

A hint of discoloration flashed in Wang Liangdi's eyes, and she groaned slightly, and said: "She is not in the East Palace today, maybe she went to the East City or the West Market." ”

This is strange, she had already seen Fennel and Pothos being sent to Guo Yan's side earlier, as if there was something important. The personal maid didn't have her with her, and besides, in such a situation, she still had time to go shopping as a county lady?

Li Chang was silent at the moment, so he smiled and said: "I see that my father's complexion is fine, so I hurriedly called Chang'er back, but does my mother miss Chang'er?" ”

Wang Liangdi also followed the words: "But no, my son, look at you, I forgot my mother when I got married, and I haven't seen you a few times in the past two or three years." This time I called you back in the name of your father, anyway, your father is indeed sick, why don't you stay with A-Niang for a few days, and you won't mind if you want to come to Fu'er? ”

Li Chang leaned over and hugged Wang Liangdi's arm, revealing the naïve attitude of a child, "That's fine, my daughter also wants to accompany A-Niang more, but I didn't bring a change of clothes out today, so I'll send someone back to get it." ”

Seeing that she agreed happily, Liangdi said: "I saw that you came in a hurry today, and you took the carriage of the princess's mansion, why don't I also send two people to take the carriage back with you, so that I can talk to Ju'er by the way, so as not to worry him." ”

Li Chang nodded, then called a personal maid to come, and after a few words, Liangdi also had two big maids around him and went out together.

Speaking of which, this side of Xiikeyuan has been barren for a long time, so naturally there is no small kitchen. When it was time to eat, Bai Zhi went to serve the rice from the pawn kitchen in front of her, but saw that the cook was still busy, and Mrs. Jun's meal was not yet good.

Bai Zhi frowned unconsciously, a little displeased: "The king of the county just asked his wife to rest for a few days, and it's not a big deal, why is he so lazy!" ”

The little maid under the kitchen hurriedly smiled and said: "Sister, don't worry, we have always begged for a living under Mrs. Jun, how dare you snub your master!" It was only today that there happened to be good seafood and venison, so I thought of adding a few good dishes to Mrs. County, so I slowed down. Why don't you eat here first, so as not to run again later? ”

Yiqiu Palace has always been eaten in the small kitchen, but now the king of the county has temporarily closed the Yiqiu Palace and is not allowed to enter and exit. Bai Zhi also heard some truth, so she took the dishes and chopsticks handed over by the little maid, and simply filled her stomach first, while waiting for Mrs. Jun's meal to come out of the pot.

After all, the kitchen is not an idle meal, and when Bai Zhi has almost eaten, Mrs. Jun's four dishes and one soup have already been hot out of the pot, and the aroma is overflowing, and it is really exquisite. The little maid helped put it in the food box, and her little mouth was sweet: "Sister go slowly." ”

The kitchen is in the front yard of the East Palace, some distance from the Yiqiu Palace, even if a hot water bowl is placed under the food box to keep warm, things are easy to get cold on this cold day, so Bai Zhi goes all the way very fast.

I don't know if I walked too fast and got angry or what, just walked to the back door of the inner house, and my stomach hurt.

Bai Zhi was a little anxious, so she had to endure the abdominal pain and walk forward half-hunched.

At this time, a little maid came in front of her, and when she saw this, she stepped forward and asked, "Is my sister uncomfortable, but do you want to help?" ”

This person was in three urgies, and Bai Zhi didn't look at it carefully, so she handed the food box to the little maid: "In this way, please send it to Xichi Courtyard for me, I'll go and relieve myself, thank you." ”

Naturally, she didn't see the little maid carrying the food box behind her show a smug smile and rushed towards the West Pond Courtyard.

Needless to say, the little maid was naturally sent by Wang Liangdi, she swaggered into the Xichi Courtyard with the food box, and opened the door for Nianyun to send in. Nian Yun saw that she was a raw maid, and the dishes were very rich, so she said: "It's hard for me to spend time here, you can come in and use it with me." ”

Nianyun is the master who is directly in charge of affairs after all, and those maids also know that Nianyun is idle in the day, so they didn't stop it, and let the little maid in. After about a quarter of an hour, thinking that it had been used up, the little maid carried the food box and walked out of the West Pond Courtyard with her head down.

Out of the West Pond Courtyard, the "little girl" did not send the food box back to the kitchen, but casually hid in the dry grass behind the rockery, and found a place to hide. After a while, another big girl came over, holding a package in her hand, and coughed lightly twice.

The "little maid" came out from behind the rockery, took the package in the big girl's hand, and said in a low voice: "Thank you Liangdi for me." He opened the package, took out a set of clothes, and hid behind the rockery to change.

It was Guo Nianyun who was dressed as a little maid, she took advantage of the meal time to quietly change clothes with the maid sent by Wang Liangdi and slipped out, and then changed into the clothes of the maid next to Wang Liangdi, and followed the big maid to the corner gate of the East Palace.

Since Li Chun locked her up in Xichi Courtyard, presumably the guards in the imperial city had greeted her, and she was afraid that she would not be able to get out. However, Li Chang's carriage can be parked at the corner gate, as long as he follows this carriage out of the imperial city, it can be regarded as escaping from Li Chun's sight.

When he was about to arrive at Pingkangfang after leaving Yanximen, Nian Yun found an excuse to get out of the carriage.

Escaping from the imperial city, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She had no doubt that at this time, Li Chun was going to launch a palace mutiny to directly seize power.

At this moment, what moral support, what the people's will, is not so important, the important thing is force, as long as there is a high enough force value to force the support of important ministers, as for the rest, can be suspended.

Judging from the current situation, the soldiers that Li Chun can directly command are mainly the guards of the East Palace, but there are only a few hundred. The most effective army in the entire Chang'an City is the Shence Army, and he once said that it can be deployed, which is a great help.

And in Li Yi's hands, in addition to the personal guards of King Shu's Mansion, Jingzhao Yin Li Shi is also a figure of King Shu's faction, so the guards of Jingzhao Mansion must also be counted on his side. But the most important thing is that a border army originally stationed in Daizhou happened to enter Beijing at this time, with about 50,000 horses, and it was about this time to Puzhou.

The border army has always been transferred every five years, and this batch has been in Daizhou for five years, and it is time to return. That bitter cold place is the most tempering of the mind, and some of these middle-level generals have even been in Daizhou for a longer time, which can be described as the cronies of the guards, and it is a little difficult to deal with.

Naturally, the only thing that can compete with the Shence army is the generation army, Puzhou is only a few hundred miles away from Chang'an, and at this time, I am afraid that the speed is the comparison.

But now that she is alone, how can she stop the progress of the march of the 50,000-strong army?

She didn't plan to go back to the princess's mansion to find Guo Yan. She didn't think that Guo Yan would be able to sit down and figure out a way with her now, maybe she wouldn't even be able to find a figure. Besides, if she, the third brother, knew that she ran out alone, I am afraid that it is more likely that she will be arrested directly again, right?

When he was thinking about countermeasures, suddenly someone behind him smiled and said, "Mrs. Guangling County, don't come to harm?" ”

The voice is as delicate as a milk swallow's new cry, and it inexplicably makes people feel a touch of unpredictable charm, a woman. Nian Yun looked back and was a little surprised: "Chu'er, why are you here?" ”

The person who came was Xue Chu'er, but she was not in Chengnanzhuang, why was she alone near Pingkangli at this time?

Nian Yun frowned imperceptibly, "My brother won't be here, right?" ”

The emotion on her face fell on Xue Chu'er's eyes without any omission, Chu'er smiled slightly, but did not answer positively, but said: "I went to the East Palace to look for you in the morning, but I heard that you are sick and can't see outsiders. So it seems that the king of the county thinks you are sick? ”

Nian Yun looked at her, not knowing what she wanted to say. Xue Chu'er saw that she didn't deny it, so she stopped selling Guan Zi, and said directly: "These days, something big has happened in the imperial city, isn't it?" San Lang, like the king of Guangling County, doesn't want me to get involved in these things, and I, like you, ran away secretly. ”

This Xue Chu'er is not very peaceful, since she ran out, Pingkangli is her base camp, so she should naturally come here. Her heart moved, Mo said that the Jiaofang is a three-sect and nine-rate, and I am afraid that many of the news in the imperial city were the first to spread out from here.

Nianyun took her hand: "Chu'er, you are a person with a heart." You have come to me, but have you received any news? ”

Xue Chu'er nodded, and pulled her to Pingkang: "In the past few years, I have always been in contact with the sisters in the building, and I naturally know everything I should know." The guard of the army was an acquaintance. ”

"Acquaintances?" Nian Yun was a little surprised, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Xue Chu'er's face a little uncomfortable, and immediately understood, what was Xue Chu'er's identity in the past, the red card in Pingkang was known, and no one knew it! The guard general has only been in Daizhou for a few years, and he must have been a benefactor under Xue Duzhi's skirt when he was in Chang'an in the past.

She was also a little embarrassed, so she turned around and asked, "Who is the guard?" ”
