Out of the palace, the ministers only felt a pungent fishy smell coming, but at this time it was already dark, and they couldn't see the stone slab under their feet clearly, and they only thought that there was a conflict here last night, and someone might have left blood.

However, after walking for a while, the smell did not abate, and these people realized that something was wrong.

"Someone died here last night?"

"Possibly, it sounded like a serious conflict last night!"

"Is there anyone in Chang'an City who dares to come to the gate of the palace to make trouble?"

"Why not, didn't they come to the gate of the palace to make trouble?"

"Then it won't be our family who came to make trouble yesterday!"

"No, my kid doesn't have the guts."

"That's what I said, if that kid from my family comes to the palace to make trouble for the old man, the old man will have no regrets even if he dies."

It was curfew, and the ministers were walking in the streets, followed by a group of soldiers, as if silently protecting them.

After sending the adults back to the palace one by one, the soldiers returned to the palace.

After returning to the house, the adults realized why it was also curfew time, and today was exceptionally quiet, and there was no sound at all in the squares.

They are also speculating about who came to the palace with soldiers and horses to rebel, and they were so bold.

The Royal Palace, the Golden Luang Palace.

Li Chengqian looked at Hou Junji, who was kneeling in the distance, and said, "Why should General Hou blame himself, didn't we say something good before?" Why do you bother with this gesture! ”

Hou Junji knelt straight, raised his head after hearing Li Chengqian's words, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "The minister left a way to live for himself, that is disloyalty, although His Royal Highness did not blame, but the minister still couldn't forgive himself in his heart, when the minister was at the lowest point, His Royal Highness could not leave the house and personally run to comfort the minister, why was His Royal Highness afraid when he was in danger." ”

Li Chengqian sighed, looked at Hou Junji and said: "General Hou is too worried, I don't blame you, if you feel guilty, then take good care of the city gate, I always feel that this matter is not over, King Wu is not like he brought 50,000 people to die!" ”

Hou Junji's eyes changed when he heard this, but he lowered his head at this time, and Li Chengqian couldn't see the change in his eyes, otherwise he would definitely continue to ask.

After a while, Hou Junji raised his head and looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Is it possible that King Wu still faked his death this time and used his fake body to deceive you?" ”

Li Chengqian shook his head, looked at Hou Junji and said: "I have checked, although I am not very familiar with his body, but when we were children, we took a bath together because the mole on his waist has never changed, and he is absolutely wrong." ”

Hou Junji nodded and said: "Then Weichen doesn't know, Weichen will go back to the city gate to guard it well, and he will not do anything to live up to His Highness's expectations!" ”

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "It's okay, go back, I don't blame you!" ”

Hou Junji was ordered to leave.

Ju Ruanyu's figure also suddenly appeared, I saw her holding a bowl of chicken soup, silently walked over, and after arriving at Li Chengqian's side, Ju Ruan Yu spoke: "Your Highness is tired, drink this bowl of chicken soup and rest!" ”

Li Chengqian looked at Ju Ruanyu with some surprise, it seems that there has been a gap in their relationship for a long time, and they have not been in bed for many months, why did Ju Ruanyu suddenly come to deliver chicken soup tonight.

Thinking about Li Chengqian, he thought of the news brought back by Yang Chen, looked at Ju Ruan Yu and said, "Concubine Ai has worked hard, I don't know how long Concubine Ai hasn't seen your brother?" Do you want me to send someone to call him to the palace to gather with you?" ”

Ju Ruanyu waved his hand, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "It's okay, I went to my brother's mansion when I went out to hang out a few days ago, he lived well in Chang'an, and his sister-in-law was only born for a long time, he is still at home with the child well!" ”

Li Chengqian nodded, as if he remembered the appearance of Ju Ruanyu's brother, patted his head and said: "Yes, after Changle went, you handed over the shop outside to your brother to take care of, although he married a commoner as his wife, but your sister-in-law is also a good match, and now that she has a child, she naturally has to take care of it." ”

Ju Ruanyu nodded, opened the lid of the jar in her hand, and picked up the white jade chicken soup, the white porcelain spoon collided in the bowl with a sound, only to see her blow lightly and then handed it to Li Chengqian's side and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, come and take a drink!" ”

Li Chengqian waved his hand, looked at Ju Ruan Yu and said, "Where did you get this chicken soup?" ”

Ju Ruan Yu saw Li Chengqian's refusal, her face was a little unsightly, but she still said patiently: "This is the concubine's brother who got the medicine sent by Gao Chang, plus the secret recipe of the white jade chicken soup from the chef of Mickey's restaurant, the concubine has been staring at it all afternoon!" ”

Li Chengqian dodged the spoon handed over by Ju Ruanyu, looked at her and said, "Concubine Ai has also worked hard, or Concubine Ai will drink it first!" ”

Ju Ruanyu's eyes were a little unnatural, and he was no longer full of smiles when he looked at Li Chengqian, but his face changed again and again, and finally he said patiently: "Your Highness, what are you doing?" Could it be that he was afraid that his concubine would poison the chicken soup? ”

Li Chengqian stared at Ju Ruanyu's eyes, nodded without hesitation, and said, "This palace just suspects that you have poisoned the chicken soup." ”

Li Chengqian's outspokenness made Ju Ruanyu's face completely change, only to see her put down the porcelain bowl in her hand, stared at Li Chengqian and said: "Why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think about the concubine so much, if there is anything wrong with the concubine, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might as well say it directly!" ”

Li Chengqian thought for a while and looked at Ju Ruan Yu and said: "It's not that I don't trust you, but I don't believe the medicinal materials sent by your brother, don't say that you don't know that someone attacked the palace last night, and among them are your people from Gaochangguo!" ”

Ju Ruanyu was also shocked when he heard this, looked at Li Chengqian and said, "How come, didn't we Gaochang send someone over······

As soon as these words came out, Ju Ruan Yu was also stunned, looked at Li Chengqian and said blankly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the concubine means that I, Gaochang, will not send troops over, is Your Highness too worried!" ”

Li Chengqian snorted coldly, looked at Ju Ruan Yu and said, "You Gaochang and the Turks have put on a good show on the border, isn't the purpose of transferring my troops in Chang'an?" Although I don't know why King Wu and the others are suddenly in a hurry to make a move, but since they have done it, then you must also know! ”

Ju Ruanyu shook his head, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "I don't know about this, I haven't been out of the palace much recently, but I just glanced at my nephew a few days ago, why does Your Highness slander me?" ”

Li Chengqian snorted coldly, looked at Ju Ruanyu and said, "If you don't know, Concubine Ai doesn't know, let's go back and rest late at night!" ”

Ju Ruan Yu was unrelenting, looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't believe it, then the concubine will take a sip for you first." ”

Saying that, Ju Ruanyu picked up the porcelain bowl on the side and drank the chicken soup in a big gulp, Li Chengqian on the side deliberately stopped it, but he couldn't bear Ju Ruanyu's determination.

Li Chengqian watched Ju Ruanyu take a big gulp of chicken soup, and then looked at him unharmed, and a trace of guilt rose in his heart, but before he could speak, Ju Ruanyu looked at him first and said, "Your Highness, don't you see that I am safe and sound?" ”

Li Chengqian nodded, looked at her and said, "Since Concubine Ai is safe and sound, let's go back and rest, be careful of catching a cold in the middle of the night." ”

Ju Ruanyu seemed to have been greatly wronged at this time, looking at Li Chengqian's eyes full of tears, I saw that she seemed to have a lot of courage, stared at Li Chengqian and said: "Since the prince's palace is so suspicious of the concubine today, the concubine might as well say everything, and it will be the fate of you and my husband and wife." ”

Li Chengqian listened to Ju Ruanyu's words, and only felt that something was wrong, but he still looked at Ju Ruanyu and said, "It's good if you say it, you don't have to suppress anything in your heart." ”

Ju Ruanyu nodded, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "The concubine knows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only has the princess's sister in her heart, even if she has been dead for many years, she has never thought of raising me to the position of the main concubine, do you know how this palace sees me?" ”

Li Chengqian's face was slightly gloomy when he heard Ju Ruanyu mention the crown princess, but he still looked at Ju Ruanyu and said, "Why do you care about those people in the palace chewing the root of their tongues?" Although I have not treated you as kindly as the princess for so many years, I can be regarded as respectful as a guest! ”

Li Chengqian's words seemed to stimulate Ju Ruanyu, her expression began to be hideous, and tears flowed on her cheeks as if she had turned on a switch, only to see her staring at Li Chengqian's eyes and saying: "I know that you married me at that time and actually just thought that my background could help you get the help of some forces, so you told the emperor that you wanted to marry me, and then the emperor discussed with my father and the emperor to marry me to you, and you pretended not to know, and even asked the princess sister to find the emperor, what a villain!" ”

Ju Ruanyu's words made Li Chengqian's face a little different, but he still sighed and admitted it, but asked Ju Ruanyu with some curiosity: "How did you know about this?" I remember that I only told my father about this, and never mentioned it to anyone else, so where did you know about it? ”

Ju Ruanyu did not respond to Li Chengqian's words, but squinted his eyes and looked at him and said: "You obviously know that what I like is satisfaction, and as long as the emperor gives marriage, satisfaction will definitely not refuse, even if his wife is unwilling, I can successfully marry into his family, you still ignore your brother for your own selfish desires." ”

When Li Chengqian heard the name of his heart, his eyes became cold, and he stood up and looked at Ju Ruan Yu and said, "The person you are talking about is Yang Chen, he is the royal family of the former Sui, so you want to marry him?" ”

Ju Ruanyu had already known Yang Chen's identity, and when he heard Li Chengqian's question, he also said strongly: "Don't you know how much I like him?" And Yang Chen, he must also like me, otherwise why would he help me open a shop, introduce Changle to me, and let me rely on it in Chang'an. ”

Speaking of Changle, Ju Ruan Yu seemed even more sad, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "Changle is better to me than you are to me, Li Chengqian, you are too hurtful!" ”
