Xu Yuan went directly to see Li Bozhang after going out, and then did not return to the house, until Dongfang Liang asked, he thought that the maid and mother-in-law had been waiting in the courtyard before going out, and soon entered the house after he left......

It should have been discovered sooner, and it was too late to say anything at this point. Xu Yuan didn't argue, he just wanted to finish the matter at hand as soon as possible, and then go to the princess's mansion to discuss countermeasures with Princess Baozhen.

Pulling Dongfang Liang aside, Xu Yuan whispered softly: "Master, don't be in a hurry to get angry with your apprentice, I promise to bring Ling Ling back safely." Seeing that Dongfang Liang didn't shoot a fierce gaze, Xu Yuan continued: "In order to save my father's life, Brother Bozhang is willing to join forces with us and help us cut off all the back roads of Lord Li. ”

Is there a way back for Li Chongshan? Dongfang Liang raised his eyebrows and told Xu Yuan with disdain: "Take him back." You have experienced it once, you should know that Li Chongshan has a noble person to help, and he can't die. ”

Dongfang Liang and Xu Yuan didn't know who the noble person was, but they never thought of going to check, because according to various signs in the past, this noble man never tried to help the abuse, but simply wanted to save Li Chongshan's life.

Li Bozhang didn't see King Chengping as he wished, and he was inevitably a little unwilling when he came out, "Brother Xu, the prince doesn't want to see me, could it be that the situation has reached the point where it can't be saved?" ”

Xu Yuan wanted to say no, but when he thought back carefully about Dongfang Liang's expression and the situation in front of him, it seemed like he had to send an arrow on the string, and no one could change it. "Don't think about it too much, everything will be as usual when you go home, and I will help you say a few more words there."

Up to now, Li Bozhang also understands that it is useless to say more, and the only thing he can do is to believe in the classmate and friend in front of him.

"In the future, if I have the chance, I will take you to meet my aunt's son...... Speaking of which, he used to grow up in Binh Duong Mansion, you should have seen it. ”

Knowing that Li Bozhang was trying to find something easy to relieve his tension, Xu Yuan still couldn't bear to interrupt him, and followed his words and said: "I have only heard of Lu Gongzi, but my wife is very familiar with him, if you have time to take him to my house to sit, I will definitely sweep the couch to greet him." ”

When Li Bozhang returned to the mansion in a good mood, he first met Mrs. Li and his cousin Lu Yue, and when he was about to go to see Li Chongshan, the steward reminded him in time: "My lord went out half an hour ago, and I didn't explain where I was going." Li Bozhang's heart fell down as if it had been filled with lead, his mind was dazed, and he didn't know which direction to walk in the courtyard.

It wasn't until the steward secretly invited Lu Yue over that Lu Yue comforted him in a few words that he came to his senses.

This sobriety made him come up with an emergency solution, Li Bozhang grabbed Lu Yue's sleeve, "Cousin, my brother bothers you with one thing!" You know the third lady of the Ruan family, and the guards of the princess's mansion should recognize you......"

Lu Yue didn't wait for him to make a request, pressed his hand and said, "Cousin doesn't need to go into details, uncle, aunt and cousin treat me very well, this trip is what I should go." ”

Since the last fire in the princess's mansion, martial law has been imposed everywhere inside and outside the mansion, and when Lu Yue entered a secluded courtyard after many inspections, Xu Yuan had already spoken to Princess Baozhen for a while.

Seeing Lu Yue coming, Xu Yuan sighed in his heart, Li Bozhang still couldn't believe him after all.

"Lu Yue greets His Highness."

Princess Baozhen looked at Lu Yue with admiration, not because of his admirable prodigy status, but at this moment, he dared to come alone at a young age.

In her silence, Lu Yue glanced at Xu Yuan, who was sitting upright, silent. Although Xu Yuan looked calm, his wandering eyes revealed his worries all the time.

"Your Highness, can Lu Yue disturb your mansion for a few days?"

Princess Baozhen smiled calmly: "Of course." Do you need to send someone to inform Master Li? ”

Lu Yue lowered his head and said, "There is His Royal Highness Lao." "Nothing else.

The sandalwood in Queen Zhang's palace is curling, less nervous outside the palace, and more peaceful.

The black and white chess pieces on the chessboard have occupied most of the chessboard, and the burning candle flame on the shelf is faintly reflected. Empress Zhang got up and down, glanced at the dark sky outside, and then at Ruan Miaoling opposite, and said in surprise: "It turns out that it is so late, and the palace doors are closed...... Mrs. Xu will rest in the palace tonight. ”

Ruan Miaoling nodded with a smile, and the palace maid came over and whispered a few words in Empress Zhang's ear, and Empress Zhang's face changed a few times in an instant before she barely calmed down.

"I think the servants who sent the courtiers into the palace have never seen the courtiers leave the palace, and they panicked for a while...... Ruan Miaoling got up and said: "Please ask the queen to let the courtiers go and see them." ”

Empress Zhang waved her hand: "No need, come here, send Mrs. Xu to the Qinzheng Palace." ”

On the way to the Qinzheng Palace, you can see twice as many guards as before from a long distance, Lin Lian stood on the steps, his hands clasped in front of his abdomen, his eyes didn't know where to look, and the guards behind him seemed to be a solemn stone carving.

Lin Lian saw Ruan Miaoling coming from far and near, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his eyebrows naturally raised, and he stepped forward to say hello, "Third Miss, smell this, it can refresh you." ”

What he gave was a bottle of mint water, Ruan Miaoling sniffed it, and looked at Lin Lian puzzled. Lin Lian touched his eyes, "King Chengping has been talking to the emperor for a long time, I'm afraid I have to say it again, and the young lady has to insist." ”

Ruan Miaoling looked around and asked, "My mother...... Didn't come? ”

Lin Lian said: "According to the old slave, it is very suitable for King Chengping to come, what does the young lady think?" ”

Indeed, as he said, Ruan Miaoling probably guessed what Empress Zhang and the new emperor wanted to do, but she didn't know how Princess Baozhen would respond. If she had known in advance, she would have been able to cope more naturally.

Xu Yuan stared at Lu Yue for half an hour, "Lu Gongzi is here for Master Li?" ”

Lu Yue said: "Yes, although my uncle chose the wrong path, he is still my mother's brother." Regardless of whether my mother is alive or not, my uncle has always treated me very well, and I am here to repay this kindness. ”

"So Lu Gongzi is willing to be used by us to blackmail Lord Li." Xu Yuan filled him with tea and said, "But you miscalculated one thing, you can't threaten Master Li by coming here." ”

Lu Yue said: "I understand, it can't be me who can threaten my uncle." "The only one who can threaten him is his dead sister. But Lu Yue wanted to use his actions to tell Li Chongshan that if he turned back as soon as possible, he could still keep his aunt and cousin.

"You actually want to help Miss Three, right?" Xu Yuan chuckled, "You kids are so interesting...... Don't worry, she'll be fine, I won't let her be fine. ”

Lu Yue accepted his statement frankly, but Xu Yuan did not take a single bit: "If Lu Yue is not mistaken, Lord Xu is worried at the moment, not worried about the third miss, but worried about yourself." ”
