"The Divine Decree has arrived! Prince Li Qian received the order! ”

As Zuo Qing walked into the room with the holy decree in his hand, Li Gan saw this, and hurriedly stood up and trotted forward.

"The minister takes the order!"

Zuo Qing glanced at Li Gan, did not read out the content of the holy decree, but directly handed the holy decree to Li Gan.

"Prince, I don't need to say more about what the holy decree is about, right? See for yourself. ”

Li Gan took the holy decree and unfolded it to see that the entire holy decree did not have too many words, only one word.

And it was this one word, but it made Li Gan's body tremble.

Return!

A simple word, in Li Gan's eyes, could make him deeply feel the anger of his father!

"Commander Zuo, rest assured, this prince will leave for Kyoto today!"

Zuo Qing nodded, then turned to leave.

Li Gan was a little puzzled when he saw this, since Zuo Qing was here to announce the decree, he should have to follow him back to Kyoto, but where is he going to leave now?

"Left Commander stays!"

Hearing Li Gan's words, Zuo Qing stopped, turned to look at Li Gan and said, "What does the prince command?" ”

"I don't know where the Left Commander is going?"

"On the orders of His Majesty, I will go to Sucheng to find the Eighth Prince and order him to return to Beijing immediately."

After speaking, Zuo Qing didn't give Li Gan a chance to respond, and immediately jumped up, and disappeared into the mansion with a few ups and downs.

And after hearing Zuo Qing's words, Li Gan couldn't help but be stunned.

Staying in the city?

Li Chengwen?

He was even in Pingzhou!

I don't know what Li Gan thought in his heart, but I saw that his face gradually became gloomy.

"Someone!"

As Li Qianli let out a loud voice, after a while, a guard came running from outside.

"Pack your things and go back to Beijing!"

……

Sucheng.

The refugees from Pingzhou rioted, and the refugees from various cities and counties revolted. The whole Pingzhou is full of war, but this city alone has not been implicated at all.

But in order to prevent accidents, in Li Chengwen's mention, Yan Xiang also sent out all the defenders of Sucheng to deploy defense, although there is no accident in Sucheng at present, but everyone knows that the peace at this time is only temporary.

On the city wall, Chu Mo and Li Chengwen stood on the edge of the city wall, looking into the distance.

"I didn't expect the Pingzhou riots to evolve so seriously. The seven cities and five counties were all lost, and now this city is the last pure land in Pingzhou. ”

Li Chengwen sighed helplessly.

"You're right, but there's one thing you didn't say. This Pingzhou disruption seems to have given you a great opportunity. ”

Chu Mo said with a smile.

"You're still laughing at this point."

Li Chengwen said with a wry smile.

He didn't know the meaning of Chu Mo's words. Li Gan could not escape the blame for the Pingzhou Rebellion, and he had to bear the main responsibility for this incident.

But Li Gan is the crown prince after all, will his father really punish him for this incident?

You must know that the last time Shen Simiao's incident implicated him, his father only punished him for his seclusion, and even the matter of the Su family after that was just a small punishment and a big commandment.

Perhaps in his father's heart, Li Gan is the prince he set up after all, and the prince is the prince after all, although this Pingzhou Rebellion has a lot to do with Li Gan, but he will not suffer any serious punishment.

"Do you think that this time my father will punish Li Gan for the matter of Pingzhou?"

Li Chengwen suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Chu Mo shook his head.

"Of course not, Li Qian is the prince and the prince. Your father will not admit that he is wrong, after all, it is impossible for him to make the civil and military officials lose confidence in Li Gan, otherwise, even if he inherits the unification in the future, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public. ”

"But one thing is certain, after this incident, Li Gan's position in the hearts of your father and emperor will inevitably be shaken."

Chu Mo said lightly.

"Besides, Li Gan's mother is the current queen, and the queen has her brothers behind her, as long as Li Gan is not against the big fault, so big that he has to depose him as the crown prince, your father will not punish him too harshly."

For these things, Chu Mo saw them more clearly than anyone else. The forces behind Li Gan are not so simple, although Li Deyi is the emperor of the current Dawu Dynasty, there are many things that he cannot control.

"Yes, behind my crown prince, there is a large force supporting his crown prince......

Li Chengwen said with some emotion.

Among the many princes, he is a concubine who has no power and power, and it is not easy to compete for the position of the crown prince.

"Huh?"

At this moment, Chu Mo said softly, Li Chengwen heard this, and just wanted to ask, but at the moment when he turned his head, he saw that Chu Mo's eyes were staring closely at the distance.

Out of curiosity, Li Chengwen followed Chu Mo's gaze and saw that not far away, a fast horse was galloping.

"It's Zuo Qing!"

When Li Chengwen saw the face of the person riding the horse clearly, he immediately burst out in surprise.

Chu Mo smiled and said, "It seems that the Pingzhou Rebellion has already been transmitted back to the palace. This time, Zuo Qing came here, I am afraid that he was ordered by your father. If it is not bad as expected, Li Gan should have already returned to Kyoto, Zuo Qing is here now, I am afraid that he will also come to inform you of the news that your father asked you to return to Beijing. ”

Really!

When Zuo Qing rode a war horse to the city wall, looking at Li Chengwen and Chu Mo standing on the city wall, Zuo Qing immediately read out the holy decree.

Li Chengwen accepted the order, and then followed Zuo Qing back to Kyoto alone on the same day.

As for Chu Mo, he also left after Li Chengwen left Sucheng. It's just that the destination of his trip is not Kyoto, but Liangzhou!

……

Kyoto, Imperial Palace.

After returning to Kyoto, Li Qian rushed to the palace non-stop and came to the imperial study to plead guilty.

"Your Majesty, the crown prince has been kneeling outside for two hours."

In the imperial study, Li Si couldn't help but remind Li Deyi, who was reviewing the folds.

"Let him kneel outside first, let him have a good memory!"

Li Deyi's eyes never took off his hand from beginning to end.

"By the way, has the eighth child returned to Beijing?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince is already on his way back to Beijing, and he should be able to arrive in Kyoto early tomorrow morning."

Lees responded.

Li Deyi nodded, and immediately stopped speaking.

About two hours passed, and when Li Deyi slowly put down his hand, he heard him say softly: "Let the prince come in." ”

Li Si nodded, and then walked towards the outside of the imperial study.

At the same time, Li Si, who had been kneeling outside for nearly five hours, had his heart hanging in his throat all the time, his father knew that he was outside, but he had not announced himself for so long, which showed how disappointed his father was in himself.

And at this moment, the closed door slowly opened, and the moment Li Gan raised his head, he saw Li Si walking out.

"Father-in-law......

Before Li Gan finished speaking, he saw Li Si and said with a smile: "Prince, Your Majesty has summoned you to see you." ”
