After the prince followed Xiao Anzi into the Heart Cultivation Palace, he turned left and right and walked for a while, and his heart was inexplicable.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard a deep voice coming from the front. "Princess, are you back? How's it going? As he spoke, a middle-aged man wearing a yellow brocade robe with a golden silk dragon pattern had already flashed in front of him.

The prince was taken aback, hurriedly caught up, ran down and exclaimed. "My lord, something is wrong! Li Qiusheng had an accident. When the middle-aged man in the brocade robe heard this, he was taken aback at first, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

He stared at a pair of surprised and puzzled eyes and urged urgently, "Princess, what's wrong?" Didn't I just send you to Zhao Ren? As for being so panicked? As he spoke, he glanced at the prince in disbelief, and stood in the middle of it in a daze.

The prince was in a hurry, and he replied in a panicked voice. "Lord of the country, of course, it's not that the slaves are panicking, but that Li Qiusheng has a big incident, something has happened."

The middle-aged man in the brocade robe was suddenly startled again, and he couldn't help but be furious when he heard the prince reply to him like this twice. "What do you mean, Princess? What happened to Li Qiusheng? Say it! I don't believe it's so difficult for me to send you out to do a little thing? And, and the people you've met are tougher than my world? ”

Wang Gonggong was so frightened by the middle-aged man's sudden roar that he immediately trembled and shook his throat. "The lord of the country, it's not that the slaves are in trouble, but the slaves were kidnapped by the people sent by King Liang when they returned to the south gate of the capital with Li Qiusheng and others. Maybe Li Qiusheng is someone else, and he is now imprisoned in the Liang Palace. ”

Hearing what the prince said, the middle-aged man's face turned blue with anger, his eyes widened with anger, and he immediately stomped his feet and shook his hands and shouted hatefully. "Hmph, it's this King Liang who is getting in the way again, and it's a good thing for me. Wang Gonggong, you say, what is King Liang doing this? ”

Suddenly, the middle-aged man Li Tianzhao roared like this, and the prince in horror trembled and replied. "Lord of the country, this, this, this, a minion doesn't know. But the kidnapper is the one who holds the law of the lord of the kingdom, and the slave dares to stop it. ”

The lord of the country, Li Tianzhao, was stunned when he heard this, and stood in the middle of it in a daze, groaning in confusion. "What did you say? The Guardian holds my will in his hands? As he spoke, he turned around again, was stunned, and said to himself while touching the half-pinch of beard under his chin with one hand. In this way, you all think that it is my will to capture Li Qiusheng at the city gate? ”

"No, no, don't dare." The prince replied in shock, and the confusion and incomprehension in his heart were added a little more at this time. However, from the sudden reaction of the lord of the country, Li Tianzhao, the prince has realized that this strange thing is indeed a bit confusing and accidental, and there must be some unknown stories hidden in it. But he can't ask questions at this time, he can only endure in his heart.

When the prince was confused and thinking hard, he heard the lord Li Tianzhao say angrily. "Don't dare? Princess, you don't dare? I'm afraid that you must think in your heart at this time that it was my order. Okay, this matter is not difficult for you, since Li Qiusheng and others are now in the Liang Wangfu, the Liang King does not dare to embarrass Li Qiusheng too much, as for suffering some hardships? With King Liang's temperament and practices, I am afraid that Li Qiusheng will not be able to escape this catastrophe. ”

"What? How does the lord of the country think to save Li Qiusheng? Wang Gonggong didn't wait for Li Tianzhao's words to land, he pretended to be frightened and asked.

"Well, we may have to wait until tomorrow morning to discuss it. Now, I'm afraid that it's good to let Li Qiusheng suffer some hardships and lessons in the Liang Palace. The lord of the country, Li Tianzhao, said silently, and stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the gray sky outside the Heart Cultivation Hall with a mysterious face.

Hearing the words of the lord of the country, Li Tianzhao, who seemed to be worried but not anxious, the haggard in the prince's chest and mind suddenly seemed ethereal. Who knows what kind of dog skin plaster is sold in Li Tianzhao's gourd? Since he has said so as the lord of a nation, what about his father-in-law, who is served? Thinking of this, he hung his haggard face helplessly, and let go of the uneasiness in his heart.

Seeing that the prince was kneeling numbly in the middle, and didn't seem to have the intention of standing up, Li Tianzhao suddenly sighed and said, "Princess, get up, I know about this." If there is nothing else to report, you should retreat first. I can't get tired, I want to rest for a while. ”

Before Li Tianzhao's voice drifted far away when he said this, he could hear the guards outside the Heart Cultivation Hall reporting in succession, "Queen Mother, here!" Queen Mother, it's here! Queen Mother, it's here! As the shouts of the guards fell, the hurried footsteps of many people were heard.

The prince followed the prestige, and saw the queen mother walking in with a serious face surrounded by several palace maids. At the corner of the roundabout, Li Tianzhao had already greeted the prince and the father-in-law.

Hurriedly walked to the Queen Mother, Li Tianzhao bowed. "The child didn't know that the queen mother was coming, and he missed the welcome, so he asked the queen mother to surrender." After saying that, he flashed aside, as if to make way for the Queen Mother.

At this time, I saw the Empress Dowager Liang glance at Li Tianzhao in front of her, and sneered coldly. "If there is still me, the queen mother, in the eyes of the emperor, why did you send someone to recruit Li Qiusheng's kid on the one hand, and secretly capture him in the middle of the way? Isn't this what you're doing to show your heart? It turns out that you have deceived even your heart. Saying that, Liang couldn't help but howl in his heart, and secretly sobbed.

Seeing this, Li Tianzhao hurriedly came up again and comforted, "Queen Mother, even if you give the child twelve points of courage, the child will not dare to deceive the Queen Mother." The child had just learned about this from the mouth of the prince. If the queen mother doesn't believe it, please see that the princess is still kneeling there to see the child! As he spoke, Li Tianzhao swore to the sky, and with a finger of his hand, he pointed at the prince who had not yet had time to stand up.

And the prince in the distance suddenly saw the lord Li Tianzhao pointing at himself, as if he was shirking his responsibility. I was so scared that I hurriedly climbed and howled to meet him, "Queen Mother, the slave has just returned to the palace and has come to see the lord of the country non-stop, as for what happened in the palace, the slave doesn't know, and please ask the Queen Mother to know it." ”

The Liang family listened to the report of the prince and didn't say anything, just stared at the lord Li Tianzhao and said. "Emperor, let me ask you, what's wrong with this kid Li Qiusheng? Has he violated that court law again, and it is worth it for you to arrest him as a court magistrate like this! If you don't make it clear to the declining family today, the declining family will go directly to the court tomorrow morning, I want to see which black-hearted guy is, and I want to put Li Qiusheng, this kid to death! ”

The lord of the country, Li Tianzhao, just wanted to defend himself, but suddenly saw that the queen mother had launched a crazy attack on him like a crazy woman who had changed her face. He was so angry that he quickly stomped his foot to confess, and he replied by throwing his sleeve. "Mother, this is really not the child's doing. If the child did it, the child would not dare to force the queen mother into the crazy appearance in front of him. ”

"Oh, so you really didn't mean to do it? The queen mother is now wrong to blame you? Liang Shi immediately held back his tears and said coldly, his heart was still like fifteen hanging buckets, swaying and unpredictable. However, the decay on his face just now seemed to have been reduced by three points.

Li Tianzhao saw that Liang's face was already a few forgiving, and immediately said with a heartfelt voice. "Mother, this is really not the child's doing. Can the queen mother think about it quietly, the child is the lord of a country, and she still needs to compete with a street deflated person who has nothing? So the child thought, there must be someone in the middle who wants to borrow my hand to be unfavorable to Li Qiusheng. ”

"Oh, if that's the case, the emperor has to hurry up to the Liang Palace. Otherwise, if it is too late, I am afraid that only one of Li Qiusheng's corpses will be left. The Empress Dowager Liang said so worriedly for a while, and her face that had just improved seemed to be covered with a layer of gloomy gray civet.

Li Tianzhao saw that the queen mother's face had just improved a little, and in the blink of an eye, it returned to its previous gloomy color. Immediately, he saluted again, "Queen Mother, don't be in a hurry. If Li Qiusheng was really escorted to the Liang Palace, it would not necessarily be in any danger, at most he would be able to endure the pain of flesh and skin. The queen mother must not spoil the child's plan and let those adulterers go unpunished. ”

"Oh, it turns out that the emperor already has a plan in mind?" Liang asked indifferently, with a long sigh in his heart, and then said in a deep voice. "Hey, okay, since the emperor has made a decision, the queen mother is not strong. You better speak up and let the Queen Mother hear it. ”

Li Tianzhao frowned in embarrassment and said in a low voice. "The queen mother, at this time, there are many people talking, and it is better for the child not to say it for the sake of insurance. lest you say it, and if you leak it, your efforts will be wasted. As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head and glanced at the Empress Dowager Liang, and then stepped forward, almost next to the root of the ear of the eldest queen, and said in a low voice. Doesn't the queen mother want to find out the real culprit behind this incident? Now everyone in the court says that King Liang has the heart of a courtier, why don't we use Li Qiusheng's incident to find out the real culprit behind this scene? It's good to see if this King Liang has the heart of a courtier. ”

When the Empress Dowager Liang heard this, she seemed to be suddenly startled, and her face turned a little pale. Immediately, he stood in the middle of it in a daze, and shouted fixedly with a pair of stunned eyes. "Hurry, hurry, tell the chief eunuch to ring the golden bell immediately, and summon the officials of the Beijing Central News to go to the court immediately, and announce the decree after listening."

Li Tianzhao saw that the Empress Dowager Liang seemed to have lost her square inch for a while, and was so frightened that it was like a great chaos in the world, so he immediately stepped forward to support the Empress Dowager Liang and said. "Queen Mother, such a trivial matter must not ring the golden bell, and all the officials in Beijing should be summoned to listen to the government. This will only lead to chaos in the DPRK and China, and the people will panic. You better go back to Shouchun Palace to rest first, and the children will take care of everything. ”

Hearing Li Tianzhao say this, the Empress Dowager Liang looked at the endless sky outside in a daze, walked a few steps forward, and suddenly muttered to herself.

"It's okay according to the emperor's plan, only to fall into our royal jealousy, it has reached the point where it is tolerable and unbearable!"
