Chapter 64: Infiltrating the Palace
The next day, Hou Yun got me a human skin mask out of nowhere, I put on a human skin mask and followed Li Yuanji into the palace dressed as a guard, Li Jiancheng was in the study during the day to deal with government affairs, so I didn't have to worry about running into him, but just in case, Li Yuanji still inquired in advance.
There were four guards standing at the door of the dormitory where Li Shimin was being held, and when they saw Li Yuanji, they all knelt down and saluted.
"See His Royal Highness King Qi!"
"Get up! I'll go in and see the second emperor brother. ”
"This..."I saw the four guards, you look at me, I look at you" His Royal Highness King Qi, I am afraid that my subordinates will not be able to obey their orders, and the prince has ordered that no one should enter. ”
"Including this king?!" Li Yuanji roared angrily.
"The prince is angry!"
"Get out of the way!" Saying that, Li Yuanji pushed away the guards at the door and walked in.
I followed him into the house and walked into the inner hall, Li Shimin was sitting in front of the copywriter and reading the book leisurely, Li Yuanji and I glanced at each other, what is the situation?
"I'll go outside and guard, Yue'er, hurry up, I'm afraid the imperial brother will come over soon."
I nodded, he smiled and glanced at Li Shimin again, turned around and walked out.
I turned around and took off my mask, and met Li Shimin's dark eyes, he was not surprised at all, as if he had known in advance, and asked lightly, "Are you back?" ”
I frowned slightly and walked towards him, he also got up and walked towards me, I was relieved to see that he was safe and sound, too, he is the future Tang Taizong, how can he easily have something, it seems that I am too careful, history is still the same, there is no butterfly effect.
I looked up at the man in front of me, "I'm coming to see you, and by the way, I'll return the favor." ”
He frowned slightly, "You shouldn't have come." ”
"How are you going to get out if I'm not coming?"
"I... There will be a way. ”
I smiled, "I'm just here to pass the word," and I hooked my fingers at him, and he bent down and put his ear in front of me, which was really high, even if he bent down, I still had to tiptoe slightly, "You thousand-year-old stinky ice." ”
After speaking, I took a step back and looked at Li Shimin, who was still in a bent posture and stunned in place, and laughed, "Well goods." ”
The next second, I fell into a strong and warm embrace, "Since you provoked me, I really won't let go in the future." ”
I was stunned this time, what did he mean by that? But now is not the time to think about it: "You let me go first, I have something for you." ”
He let go of me and watched the corners of my mouth go up, I read that right! He's laughing? Whatever he was, I immediately pulled out a small black bottle from my bosom, and he withdrew his smile the moment he saw it.
"Who gave it to you?"
"Big Brother Mowgli."
"Looks like they're ready."
"What?" I looked at the small medicine bottle in my hand, it was nothing special!
"Does he have anything to say?"
I handed him the medicine bottle, "He said that this medicine is taken two times a day, and you will be able to leave the palace in three days." ”
"Thank you."
I looked at the big man in front of me, "Shuang'er, their mother and son are all right, you don't have to worry." ”
"What about you? If he discovers you—" He frowned at me, his eyes full of worry.
"No, Yuan Guitar will help me."
The footsteps behind him paused, "Let's go!" He's coming. Saying that, he looked at Li Shimin: "Second brother, I have taken my leave." ”
Li Shimin nodded and looked at me again.
"Okay." I turned my head to look at Li Shimin again, "I'm leaving, you have to take care." Saying that, I raised my hand and compared it on my chest, meaning that he remembered the medicine, of course, Li Yuanji did not see this action.
Li Shimin nodded, and then I turned around and followed Li Yuanji out of the dormitory.
When I went out, I found that there was one less guard at the door, it seems that this trip may not be so easy, I followed Li Yuanji and pretended to be a guard, and just walked out of the prince's palace.
"Yuanji!"
The voice behind me stunned me, and Li Yuanji turned to pass by me and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
I turned around and knelt down and saluted, "Attend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." ”
"Get up!"
I stood up, my heart pounding. I really want to look up at him, and the thoughts that have been suppressed for the past two years all come out at this moment. But I didn't dare, even though I was wearing a mask, I didn't dare to look up at him.
"Big brother."
"Yuanji has gone to see your second brother?"
"Big brother already knows, Yuanji just..."
"It's okay, I'm here to ask you to stay and have a cup of tea with me."
"Good! However, I also asked the imperial brother to ask my guards to go back and report to the palace. ”
"No need, I've already sent someone to your house to report the news."
What, my heart tightened, and I clenched my fists, he was planning to trap Li Yuanji in the palace, was he afraid that Li Yuanji would go out of the palace to report the news? Why I haven't seen him for two years feels like he's become a lot stranger.
…
too womb in the garden
"How's this tea?"
"Huzhou purple bamboo shoots."
Li Jiancheng smiled and looked up at me, I immediately lowered my head and only heard him laugh: "This little guard is new?" ”
"The royal brother smiled, the newcomer was a little timid when he entered the palace for the first time, and please don't blame the imperial brother."
"It's fine, it's just a little familiar."
I shuddered slightly, familiar, he shouldn't recognize me! I almost thought I looked like this when I put the mask on, and he couldn't recognize me so quickly.
"Little guard, why do you keep your head down? Keep your head up. ”
Li Yuanji immediately spoke: "Brother Huang, you scared him like this, he is just a new guard in the mansion, and he is timid. ”
"Really? The imperial brother just thinks that this little guard makes people feel very familiar, and the imperial brother happens to have a guard next to him, why don't you give this person to the imperial brother? ”
"Brother Huang! He was just a newly appointed little guard, and if the imperial brother needed it, Motoyoshi immediately asked someone to send a few well-trained ones to the imperial brother. ”
"No need, just him!"
"Brother Huang..."
"Alright, so be it! I see it's getting late, Yuanji will rest in the palace today! Then he turned to the guard standing behind him and said, "Take His Royal Highness Qi down to the West Temple." ”
"Yes!"
What should I do now!? I desperately lowered my head, not daring to raise a point, is he even going to put Li Yuanji under house arrest together? Today's Li Jiancheng is really terrible! =
"His Royal Highness King Qi, please!"
"Brother Huang! Now you don't even believe me?! ”
"What is the imperial brother talking about, I just want to ask the emperor to stay in the palace for two days, so I should accompany my imperial brother, is the imperial brother refusing?"
“…”
"Let's go down!"
"Brother Huang!"
Li Yuanji was taken away like this, and there were only two people left in the whole garden, Li Jiancheng and me, the air was so quiet that I could hear a needle falling to the ground, and I was in a cold sweat on my forehead, what should I do now?
"Scared?"
I was shocked in my heart, knelt on the ground with a "plop", and leaned down, "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the villain was just shocked by the majesty of His Highness." ”
"Really? Why don't you dare to look up at Prince Ben. ”
"I..."
"Look up."
“…”
Seeing that I didn't look up for a long time, he slammed the teacup in his hand on the table with a "clang", "Don't let me don't let Prince Ben say it again." ”
It seems that I can't avoid this catastrophe today, I clenched my fists and slowly looked up at him, the man I hadn't seen for many years, the man I missed.
Now he is dressed in a pale yellow official uniform, with a slightly bewitching face, he is no longer the white-clothed boy he was back then, and his good-looking eyes no longer have the gentleness of the past, but more of an incomprehensible depth.
At that moment, I almost didn't recognize him, why? Why does it feel so strange.
He squinted slightly, "Do you know why Prince Ben wants to keep you?" ”
"The villain doesn't know." I looked at Li Jiancheng in front of me, and I always felt that something was wrong?
He turned his head to look at the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Because your voice is like a person." ”
What does he mean by that? My heart tightened, he wouldn't recognize me, would he?
