Since Gao Zhen came to Cangtong City, Dianmei's several requests to see him have been rejected by Han Zhongxuan, and Dianmei can still understand it once or twice, but it has been almost ten days, and it is still like this, which makes this state pastor a little incomprehensible.

And since Gao Zhen came to Cangtong City, he has not seen anyone, saying that he is a royal driver, but he has not even seen the front-line soldiers, which inevitably makes people think too much.

In the elegant pavilion of the side courtyard of Dianmei in Cangtong City, Dianmei warm wine boiled tea, and invited Hong Jingtian, the big red man next to King Jingbei, this young Confucian student, while shaking a fan, looked at the wine in the celadon Liuyun cup in front of him suspiciously, this Dianmei is not used to himself, most of the time he does not have a good face for himself, what kind of wind is this today, and he actually invited himself to drink.

Dian Mei pouted and smiled, "Mr. Hong, Your Majesty has been coming to our Dingzhou for a while, and you shouldn't ask a question, have you ever seen Your Majesty's Long Yan in the past few days?" ”

"Lord Dian, what do you mean by this, Your Majesty's Ninety-Five, I am just a nameless person, thanks to the love of the prince to have my current status, do you think Your Majesty will meet me as a nameless person?"

Hong Jingtian said unhappily, but he was still shocked into a cold sweat in his heart, after all, he secretly had no light in his dealings with Zhongfu.

Seeing Hong Jingtian's nervous appearance, Dian's eyebrows bowed slightly, raised his glass and said, "In this case, doesn't Mr. Hong think it's strange?" His Majesty's trip is talking about the royal driving expedition, but after arriving in Cangtong City, one does not see the civil and military officials, the second does not see the battlefield generals, and the third does not go out of the house to inspect the people, is this really the royal driving personal expedition? Looking at the Son of Heaven in all dynasties, there has never been such a situation......"

"Lord Dian, you can't talk nonsense, it's a serious sin to speculate on the holy will." Hong Jingtian interrupted Dian Mei's words and continued, "If this is heard, even the prince will not be able to protect you. ”

Then Dianmei turned his words, stared at Hong Jingtian and said, "We are all helping the prince, and now the whole world thinks that His Majesty is supervising the military war in Cangtong City, but I don't know that His Majesty has never shown up since he arrived in Cangtong City, and from the perspective of the official's many years of experience, there is a big problem in this." ”

Hong Jingtian put down the wine glass in his hand and frowned, "Master Dian, what do you want to say?" ”

"Today's defense of Cangtong City has been replaced by His Majesty's Imperial Forest Army, the entire Cangtong City has been blocked, the news from outside can't come in, and the news here can't get out, Dingzhou is part of the northern border, and the prince should know everything that happened here." After a glass of wine, Dianmei said in a deep voice.

Hong Jingtian clasped his hands and said slowly, "I understand what you mean, Master Dian, I have been in Dingzhou for a long time, and I will return to Jingzhou in two days and bring your words to the prince as they are." ”

Dian Mei was very satisfied with Hong Jingtian's answer, raised his hand and smiled, "So, then thank you Mr. Hong." ”

……

But the next two days were not as good as Hong Jingtian imagined, the Imperial Forest Army, which was originally only stationed outside the city, suddenly all poured into the city, and the people on the street were panicked, speculating whether something was wrong.

Dianmei Mansion, this Dingzhou pastor was still sitting in the courtyard as usual to enjoy the flowers and walk the birds, suddenly a group of royal guards in strong armor broke in with guns, and the housekeeper of the Dianfu was pressed to the ground and couldn't move before he could speak.

Soon, the Imperial Forest Army surrounded Dianmei, who was admiring the flower moon, and the captain led by him shouted sharply, "The original Dingzhou Mu Dianmei, colluded with the Northern Barbarians, and deliberately rebelled, Now that the stolen goods have been obtained, they will not be arrested!" ”

"Come on, take down this traitor for me."

The soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army around him were about to rush up and take down Dian Mei, and Dian Mei's eyes widened angrily, "What are you doing?" Do you know what kind of place this is, this is my Dianmei's mansion, it is the mansion of Dingzhou Mu, what if you are the Imperial Forest Army, there is no evidence, do you want to take down this official with one mouth, it's just presumptuous! ”

The captain of the Imperial Forest Military Academy, led by him, sneered and said disdainfully, "Dianmei, I advise you not to bluff here, you are no longer the Dingzhou Mu, and now you are just a sinner who defected to the enemy and betrayed the country." ”

Dianmei was pressed to the ground, glared angrily, and shouted, "Who is it, the wronged official, who is it?" I'm not convinced! ”

"People who commit great crimes, dare to speak out here, come here, take it." The commander of the Imperial Forest Army, led by him, couldn't bear it anymore, and with an order, he directly arrested Dianmei.

Dianmei still shouted angrily, "Let go of me, let go of me, I want to see Your Majesty, see Your Majesty......"

At this time, outside the gate of the palace, the Imperial Forest Army had already been martial law again, and the people around looked at the majestic Dingzhou Pastoral Mansion on weekdays, which was actually surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army, even if they were stupid, they all knew that something had happened to this state pastor.

No one expected that as soon as the emperor came, Dingzhou Mu would have an accident.

Hong Jingtian, who was in the crowd, looked at the scene in front of him, and couldn't help frowning, and then turned around and left quickly.

Years of staff experience told him that Dian Mei's accident must not be accidental, it is very likely that their conversation that day was heard, so it means that Dian Mei is likely to guess the truth, and the Son of Heaven came to Cangtong City, something is wrong.

Hong Jingtian walked quickly towards the city gate, his steps were fast, but as he walked, a hand suddenly appeared from the small black alley next to him, with great strength, and directly pulled it into the alley inside, and a group of black-clothed people directly carried Hong Jingtian to the dead end in the depths of the courtyard.

"Who are you and what do you want to do? Do you know who I am, dare to do it in Dingzhou, if something happens to me, the prince will not let you go. ”

Hong Jingtian scolded as he walked, but when he came to the depths of the dead end and saw the woman in front of him, his originally excited and angry expression quieted down for a moment, and the whole person was stunned like a frosted eggplant.

The woman in front of her in a strong suit played with her iconic dagger, and after seeing Hong Jingtian, she smiled softly, "Mr. Hong, where are you going?" ”

"It's you...... What are you going to do? I've done what I should have done, I've told you what I have to say, what else do you want me to do? Hong Jingtian gritted his teeth and said, but he didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

He had learned the methods of the woman in front of him, and he still remembered the tragic death of the guards who followed him, and he could only pretend to be calm, and secretly thought about how to get out in his heart.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here on the orders of Lord Han this time, I will save your life and won't harm you." The woman smiled deeply, then waved her hand, signaling her subordinates to let go of Hong Jingtian.

Hong Jingtian moved his muscles for a moment, and pretended to be disdainful and said, "You Zhongfu are quite good at making excuses for arresting people, protect me?" Is this how you protect people? ”

The woman lay back, and the subordinates behind her knelt directly on the ground, acting as the woman's seat, the woman lifted Erlang's legs, and smiled indifferently, "There is rudeness in doing things in the middle government, and I hope Mr. will not blame, but Mr. Hong is also a noble person, you also saw the situation of Dianmei just now, if you guessed correctly, it was Mr. Hong who had a good conversation with Dianmei at that time......"

Hong Jingtian's heart shook suddenly, and he was really targeted by the central government, this time His Majesty drove his personal expedition to conquer not only the northern barbarians, but also their northern borders.

The woman got up slightly, her smile was deep and ghostly, she suddenly took out a piece of paper in her hand, and said to Hong Jingtian, "Didn't Mr. Hong always want to see his wife?" I came to tell my husband that you can now go to Yindu to see your wife. ”

After saying that, she handed the piece of paper with the address in her hand to Hong Jingtian, who was stunned in place, looking at the address in the woman's hand, with a lot of thoughts in her heart.

I can see my wife, but in the same way, this also means that King Jingbei is going to have an accident.

Looking at Hong Jingtian, who was hesitant, the woman spoke again, "Mr. Hong is a meritorious person to our central government, and our central government will not treat meritorious people badly." ”

After hesitating, Hong Jingtian still chose to take back the address from the woman.

It's smart enough.

……

Jingzhou, Jingbei Palace.

In the dim and dark desert, King Jingbei opened his eyes angrily, holding a heavy sword, staring at the night in front of him in confusion and horror, lonely, fearful accompanied by the wolf roar in the night, the wind and sand not only impacted the prince's mental defense, "Come on, is there anyone, come on......"

Every shout of King Jingbei was as silent as a stone sinking into the sea, and the only thing that responded to him was the howling of wolves and ghosts around him, and in the darkness, a long sword passed through his chest, and the huge sense of oppression made this prince feel like falling into an ice cave in an instant.

"Ah......h

In the midst of great fright, King Jingbei sat up directly from the bed, at this time he was sweating profusely, his forehead was full of fine beads of sweat, King Jingbei kept panting, while constantly touching his whole body, and then let it be just a dream, a long sigh of relief.

There was no one in the empty room, only a row of oil lamps emitting a dim glow, and the terrible gloom of the dream came back again.

The old prince hurriedly got up, put on a coat casually, pushed the door out, the bright moon hung high outside, and the bright moonlight shone in the courtyard, which was quite quiet.

King Jingbei sat on the stone steps outside the door, silently raised his head and stared at Chanjuan above his head, looking at it, this old prince suddenly laughed......

Gao Ran subconsciously looked back behind him, at this time on weekdays, Zhao Changsu's figure would appear behind him, but since the last time he asked him to assassinate Han Li, Zhao Changsu has no news, just like the world has evaporated.

Zhao Changsu's whereabouts are unknown, Hong Jingtian has lost contact with Gao Zhen since he was sent to Cangtongcheng and Dianmei to greet him, and at this moment, the old prince who lost his son felt unprecedented loneliness.

The old prince suddenly laughed until his eyes were full of tears, "Big brother, big brother, you are really ruthless, you don't leave this king with a way to live......"
