Zuo Jinwei led 20,000 tiger troops, with the families of those who had been rescued by the Great Yan Surrenderers, and set off back to Beijing in a mighty way.

However, the "Xiao Xiao" was very sick all the way, Xu was seriously ill, he basically didn't get out of the car, and only a young lieutenant was left with him, and the person who served the decoction was also a seven or eight-year-old girl who had just been rescued from the mountains by the Tiger Ben Army.

Zuo Jinwei once called the little girl to come to the nearest question, who knew that the little girl was actually a mute, she would only look at people timidly, with a stupid air of a simple person in the mountains. made Zuo Jinwei completely uninterested in interrogating such a child.

In the capital at the same time, Emperor Li Qitian of Zhou read the second secret report from Zuo Jinwei, and his anger could hardly be suppressed.

He threw the newspaper on the table and picked up the white porcelain tea bowl on his left, but his hand trembling with anger shook the lid of the bowl, and the tea soup was almost spilled.

Li Qitian angrily threw the tea bowl on the ground again, "Who made the tea!" It's so hot, how can I eat it! ”

"Holy forgiveness!" The palace maid on the side immediately knelt down and kowtowed.

In fact, everyone knows that that bowl of tea can't be hot.

When they serve the saints, they naturally have to take care of all these trivial matters, and the tea soup should be six or seven minutes hot, just right for the entrance.

The Holy One is like this, but he has encountered something unpleasant and is angry.

The great eunuch Li Guanwen immediately stepped forward to salute: "The saint is angry, it is the slave and maid who have neglected to observe." He glared back at the palace maid: "Don't get out and get the punishment yet!" ”

The palace maid was immediately frightened and almost fell to the ground.

For her, this is simply a bolt from the blue, and there is no unwarranted disaster! But where did the palace maid dare to have other ideas? If she said more, if she didn't make a good deal, she wouldn't even be able to receive the punishment.

"Well, it's not a big deal." Li Qitian calmed down and sighed, "You all retreat, Li Guanwen stays." ”

"Yes, thank you, Saint Long!" The palace maid breathed a sigh of relief, and kowtowed three times in a row with gratitude, before retreating respectfully.

The attendants and palace maids serving in the imperial study are all Li Qitian's cronies, and his private space must be done by trustworthy people, otherwise he will not be able to completely relax even if he is in his own territory. Today's practice is also a means of buying people's hearts.

Li Qitian is used to slapping a sweet jujube like this, and Li Guanwen has already figured out the temperament of the saint, so it is no longer strange.

When the others came down and only Li Qitian and Li Guanwen were left in the imperial study, Li Qitian said: "Do you know the content of the report?" ”

Li Guanwen smiled and brought a new bowl of tea for Li Qitian, and said with a smile: "Look at what the saint asked, the slave only knows how to serve by the saint's side all day long, where will she know about the outside world?" If the saint wants the slave to know, the slave will naturally know. ”

Li Qitian threw the report to Li Guanwen and said, "You old slippery head, take a look." ”

Li Guanwen hurriedly picked up the report with both hands, read it carefully, and then said in shock: "This Prince Zhongshun ...... Don't you want to rebel! ”

"Hmph, this one or two, they don't want me to worry! I have all regarded me as a soft persimmon that is easy to handle. The talismans of the Tiger Ben Army have all been handed over to me, and he dares to act like this! ”

Li Guanwen was busy hunching his body, not daring to say more.

It wasn't until he was sure that the anger of the saint had subsided a little that he said, "It seems that Prince Zhongshun is indeed sincere to the young lady of the Qin family. Something happened to the team that surrendered this time, and the Prince of Zhongshun was in a hurry, and he couldn't even take care of the emperor's order, so he took the people and horses to save people in a hurry, it seems that since ancient times, the hero has been sad about the beauty pass, but it is true. ”

Listening to a eunuch analyzing in front of him what "heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass", Li Qitian couldn't help laughing, "You eunuchs know a lot." ”

Li Guanwen smiled shyly, and then said, "Holy Lord, the Tiger Ben Army is stationed outside the city now, which is really too dangerous. You also need to prepare for it. ”

Li Qitian pondered for a moment, and on his face, which had always been full of kindness, a smile with affinity appeared, "Where is Ji Lan now?" ”

"Back to the saint, Dingbei Hou is still kneeling outside to reflect. I've been kneeling for a day and a night. ”

Li Qitian sighed and said, "Although he acted recklessly and stabbed me in a big way, Ji Lan was also sincere to me, and he knew that he rushed back to the capital to plead with me, so let him stop kneeling and come in to see me." ”

"Yes. The slave and the maid will go. ”

Li Guanwen bowed and retreated, went to the outside of the imperial study, helped Ji Zeyu, who was kneeling upright, and ordered the little chamberlain to massage Ji Zeyu's legs, and then put ointment on the bruised knees, and then said respectfully: "Master Hou, the Holy Lord, please go in and talk." ”

Ji Zeyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, said "thank you" to Li Guanwen with a cold face, and then entered the imperial study.

Li Guanwen originally wanted to go in to serve, but the Holy Lord did not allow anyone to serve on the sidelines, so what the Holy Lord and Ji Zeyu talked about, they didn't know.

At this time, Xiao Xiao, who had just secretly returned to the palace of Prince Zhongshun, had already learned that Ji Zeyu had also returned to Kyoto and asked for sin.

Xiao Xiao wrinkled his eyebrows and didn't say a word for a long time.

Huzi said: "Lord Wang, you are really too risky this time. Even if it's for the sake of the four girls, you can't ...... Now you're back. But that doesn't mean the Holy One doesn't know anything about it. Since the Holy One knows everything, he must take the opportunity to give you a big one, what should you do when the time comes? ”

How could you not understand these truths?

It's just that when he has a strong desire to do something, it doesn't matter what the consequences are. At least now he could be sure that Qin Yining was still alive, not the corpse he had seen in his nightmares these days.

Xiao Xiaotian is not afraid of the earth, what he is most afraid of is that Qin Yining will be wronged and hurt, but this time, he did not think it through.

Where did Xiao Xiao think that Ji Zeyu would be so impulsive, so he disobeyed the holy decree and led people to kill him?

But after thinking about it carefully, Xiao Xiao's heart was a little bitter.

Is Ji Zeyu's move really just to help him avenge?

With his understanding of Ji Zeyu's acquaintance for many years, Ji Zeyu is scheming, shrewd, and on par with the saint, as the commander of the Longxiang Army, he suppressed the Tatars to death on the side of the northern power, how could such a brave and resourceful person be a person who did reckless things on impulse?

Xiao Xiao didn't have to think about it, he understood that Ji Zeyu's approach was really killing two birds with one stone.

But he didn't want to think about a brother with the darkest of thoughts.

He ignored the rumors outside, and after communicating with his mother, grandfather and grandmother at home, he continued to pretend to be sick.

And the team of the Tiger Ben Army, which had traveled long distances in the snow, finally arrived in the capital.

As soon as Li Qitian heard that Zuo Jinwei had returned with people, he immediately ordered the soldiers and horses of the Fifth Army Battalion, the Shenji Battalion, and the 3,000 Battalions, together with Ji Zeyu's 10,000 Longxiang troops who had stayed outside the city, to strictly block the 20,000 Tiger Ben troops who had arrived at the city gate outside the city gate.
