Li Zhen finally rushed back to Chang'an City before the city gate was locked, and when he returned home, a family came to report: Where is the young lady of the inner courtyard where His Royal Highness the prince has gone.

In ancient times, men over the age of seven were usually not allowed to enter the inner courtyard, even for boys in the house. How could Li Zhi trespass into the minister's house so privately, and this kid once pursued Xiao Ying. In view of what his father did, Li Zhen's heart couldn't help but tighten.

Hearing the familiar footsteps, she raised her eyes and saw Li Zhen's vigorous figure, Xiao Ying stood up with relief and went out.

Seeing Li Zhen walk in with a dusty face, Li Zhi stood up and said with a wry smile: "I woke up last night and knew that I had lost my words after drinking, and today you asked for leave again." Lone thought that you must have gone to look for Jiu'er, so I came to the house and waited. You can rest assured that although Li Zhi is stubborn and willful, he will never do that beastly thing. ”

Li Zhen gritted his teeth when he heard him talk about the four "things of beasts", although he felt that it was inappropriate, but he didn't know how to persuade him. Thinking that Jiu'er now has a new family, my heart is also gloomy.

On the one hand, Xiao Ying wanted to divert the topic, and on the other hand, she also wanted to know the current situation of Jiu'er, so she hurriedly asked, "You found it?" ”

Li Zhen nodded with an embarrassed face, "Jiu'er has a new home" The words "Jiu'er has a new home" He couldn't say it in front of Li Zhi no matter what.

Seeing Li Zhen's strange face, Xiao Ying asked, "What's wrong?" Did something happen to Jiu'er? Is it paralyzed or ruined? ”

"She is married to someone else and has children." Li Zhi saw that Li Zhen looked helpless and unspeakable, so he simply answered for him.

Xiao Ying didn't believe it, Jiu'er's age was there, and there were not many precedents for a woman of this age to get pregnant and give birth. She asked, "Did you figure out that it was her child?" ”

Li Zhen didn't know much about this, and seeing that Xiao Ying was still asking in front of Li Zhi, he really wanted to step forward and cover her mouth.

This woman is really a nuisance! Li Zhen thought of this, and he said impatiently: "The children all call her mother, and there can be a vacation!" ”

Xiao Ying stretched out her hand and poked at Li Zhen's head and said, "What do you think of a big man!" A woman has to conceive a child for ten months, even if she is born prematurely, it will take seven months, and it has only been a year since the matter of nine children. Unless you have the ability to give birth to a child who can be called a mother in a year! We women don't have the ability to do that. ”

Listening to Xiao Ying's words, Li Zhi was stunned, and Li Zhen was also stunned. Both of them are full of poetry and books, but they never thought of this layer. When I saw that the little girl was called "Niang", I immediately thought that this was Jiu'er's child. But they didn't expect that such a big child would have time to give birth and take time to raise.

A kind of joy of loss and recovery suddenly filled Li Zhi's heart, and at this moment he no longer thought about his father, nor did he think about her previous past. What Li Zhi wants now is for his Jiu'er to come back and return to their home.

Li Zhi turned around, and even forgot to say goodbye, and ran directly towards the outer courtyard. Xiao Ying saw that his expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked Li Zhen to follow.

Out of the gate of the British Mansion, Li Zhi strode to a war horse, jumped on the horse, turned the horse's head and galloped towards the south gate.

The accompanying eunuch who followed Li Zhi was waiting at the second gate, he originally wanted to follow up, but Li Zhi didn't allow it. This eunuch has followed Li Zhi since he was a child, and he knows that Li Zhi has chased Xiao Ying before. Thinking about what Emperor Taizong did, this eunuch kept muttering in his heart, don't let something happen.

Seeing that the prince hurriedly came out of it not long after Li Zhen came back, the eunuch's heart was cold: It's over, what are you afraid of. turned around and hurriedly followed, seeing that Li Zhen also hurriedly chased out, the eunuch was really anxious: Don't let anything happen to you.

He was afraid that Li Zhen would be unfavorable to the crown prince, so he chased after him for a few steps, reached out and grabbed Li Zhen's clothes, and said, "Shizi, I have something to say." ”

Li Zhen was afraid that something would happen to Li Zhi if he was not calm, and he wanted to chase him out to stop him. was caught unexpectedly, and listening to his voice was the eunuch next to the prince, I thought he had misunderstood. At this time, he didn't have time to explain, so he shook his hand and took back his shirt and hurriedly chased after him.

The eunuch didn't expect that Li Zhen, who was usually polite and polite, would have such a lot of strength, and he threw him off and fell to the ground. Li Zhen heard a grunt behind him, and knew that the eunuch had fallen down by himself, so he couldn't care about it at the moment and chased him out directly.

The eunuch was trying to get up quickly, and he didn't want Xiao Ying to hurry out and remind Li Zhen to be careful. In ancient times, unlike modern times, there were street lamps everywhere at night, and although the Guogong Mansion was rich, it was reluctant to light lights everywhere at night, and it was generally people with lanterns to light the road at night.

It was not yet dark, and the men guarding the various gates were still preparing, and they were eager to get lanterns to illuminate them. This eunuch coincidentally fell into the shadows, and Xiao Ying didn't see it clearly when he came over, and stepped on his hand with one foot. The eunuch was crawling up, and suddenly there was a sharp pain in his hand, and his strength was discharged. He fell back to the ground with a thud, only this time his face hit the ground first.

When Xiao Ying heard the screams, she was so frightened that she quickly stopped, turned around and saw that it was a eunuch. This eunuch has followed Li Zhi since he was a child, and Xiao Ying naturally knows him.

She leaned over to pull the eunuch up from the ground, and asked as she pulled it, "Little Wuzi, why are you lying here?" How cool it is on the ground. ”

The eunuch couldn't laugh when he heard this, and thought: This was dropped by your man, but it is not our family who wants to lie down.

He didn't dare to let Xiao Yingfu be, who this aunt was, others didn't know him, but they knew. There is royal blood, and the royal relatives of the two dynasties.

has been favored and arrogant since he was a child, and he even dared not to give the face of the prince, this prince is not Li Zhi but the former Li Chengqian. No matter how favored the King of Wei was back then, he was all evasive when he saw this aunt, and the most arrogant Qi King Li You and Shu King Li Su in the palace were all beaten by her.

She's pregnant now, so she can't do anything. Otherwise, it is possible to hit the board at the light level, and to wipe out the family and the clan at the worst.

The eunuch named Xiao Wuzi hurriedly got up from the ground and supported Xiao Ying, who was bending over. said with concern: "County Lord, you should be careful. ”

Xiao Ying was blocked by him, and he didn't expect to be able to catch up with Li Zhen and them, so he had to turn back. Xiao Wuzi helped Xiao Ying and hesitated slightly. I also know that I can't catch up, so it's better to take advantage of the situation to serve this aunt and grandmother well, no matter what the chaos is over there, I can be justifiably absent, even if I investigate it afterwards, there will be no big punishment.

Thinking of this, he helped Xiao Ying back to the house, and Xiao Ying saw through his thoughts at a glance. But she didn't want to embarrass Xiao Wuzi, although he was a royal minion, but there was also a small love between them, and she could help him share a little.

So he was helped back to the room by Xiao Wuzi, and Xiao Ying's maid was robbed of her share by Xiao Wuzi, and she was helpless. He is a eunuch, he is a slave in the palace, and when he leaves the palace, it is not an ordinary official who dares to offend, and she is even more afraid to offend a little maid.

That is, Mrs. Shizi dared to let the eunuch serve, and if she did this, she would not be dragged out of the house by a hat that despised the royal family and beheaded her!

The war horse that Li Zhi rode was the horse of the leader of the forbidden army who accompanied him. The prohibitory army guarding him consisted of fifty men, and the leader was two. When they saw that Li Zhi had snatched the horse, they beat the horse like crazy and left, for fear that something would happen to the prince. It is easy to get into trouble when riding at night, and it is dangerous to have a little accident on a galloping horse.

One of the two leaders flew on his horse, and the other beckoned the resting Praetorian Army to catch up. Li Zhen ran out of the gate at this time, stretched out his hand and dragged down the leader of the forbidden army who had already ridden the war horse.

Li Zhen turned over and jumped on horseback, and said to the two leaders of the forbidden army: "You restrain your subordinates to wait from now on, and you must not leave without permission!" ”

The two leaders of the forbidden army lost their temper when they saw that it was Li Zhen. They are all forbidden soldiers in the palace, and their eyesight is naturally not bad. Li Zhen is the eldest son of the Duke of England, and the hereditary title of Duke of England is a sure thing, he married the young daughter of the Duke of Song, and the official title is the captain of the horse.

You must know that this official position is specially set up for the people of Princess Shang, and the title of the young daughter of Song Guogong is the county lord. This title can only be used by the daughters of the in-law clan, which is already a great honor for the young daughter of the Duke of Song. Her husband turned out to be the captain of the horse, which shows the status of the Xiao family and the British family in the emperor's mind.

Li Zhen said that these forbidden troops can only obey orders. Seeing that the forbidden army had returned to the place where they had just rested and sat down, Li Zhen also relieved himself and turned his horse's head and chased in the direction where Li Zhi rode away.

Li Zhen was born in a military family and grew up in the war years. This riding skill has been polished by masters since childhood, and it is not far behind those nomadic masters. Li Zhi's riding skills are not bad, but Li Zhen is even more proficient, and he saw Li Zhi's back after a while.

Li Zhi heard the bell ringing behind him, turned his head and saw that it was Li Zhen chasing after him, and secretly exclaimed: I can't see that this guy's equestrian skills are so superb.

He did not slow down his horse but continued to gallop forward, at this time there was a group of forbidden troops patrolling the night on the street, led by the old Sancheng Chubi of the Lu Guogong Cheng Zhijie family, he was the same age as Li Zhi, and he was Li Zhi's companion when he was a child. At this time, seeing Li Zhi galloping so late, he felt that he should help him.

While asking his men to get out of the way, he stepped forward and asked, "Where are you going, young slave?" I'm here to help you! ”

Li Zhi was anxious at the moment, and when he saw Cheng Chubi blocking the way, he waved a whip and hit him on the head, and drank: "Get out!" ”

Cheng Chubi's fart slapped on the horse's hooves, and he was almost whipped up, so he hurriedly reined in the horse and got out of the way with a blank face. Looking at Li Zhi, who was far away, he didn't know whether to scold him or not.

Li Zhen galloped to Cheng Chubi's side, patted him on the shoulder unceremoniously, and said, "Cheng Laosan, your horse is good, let's change it." Give me two more good horses, and your family will give me a few, and you will have two horses. ”

Seeing Li Zhen, Cheng Chubi was even more like a mouse seeing a cat. In the second generation of their Wagang series, Li Zhen is not literate, martial arts, and has a lot of ghost ideas. Cheng Chubi's group of little ones have all grown up eating his losses since they were children, and anyone who sees him has a headache.

obediently did as Li Zhen said, and according to the requirements of one person and two horses, he could only give Li Zhen twelve generals. After the delivery, Cheng Chubi instructed his generals to obey Li Zhen's command and protect the prince.

The generals of the Cheng family also knew Li Zhen, and knew that what Cheng Chubi said was right, so they said: "Please rest assured, young master." Then he followed Li Zhen to beat the horse and whip and chased down.
