At this time, in a small town about ten miles east of Wenshui County, more than a dozen black-clothed people on horseback came to an inn, they turned over and dismounted, and walked into the inn, in the crowd there was a middle-aged and elderly man who looked about fifty or sixty years old, his eyes were swollen, his face was pale, and his eyes were frightened.

The group of black-clothed men who rescued him were the internal guard soldiers, they used the golden cicada to get out of the shell, and sent the fake Wu Chengsi to the carriage, and the real Wu Chengsi was still hiding in the house, when Wu Chonglie led his men to chase the carriage, the internal guard warriors escaped from the house with Wu Chengsi, went out of the city from the north gate, and turned east to the town.

Wu Chengsi witnessed the situation where Wu Chonglie led a large group of martial arts generals to hunt down his subordinates and stand-ins, and he was still terrified in his heart, as if Wu Chonglie would catch up again soon, he said in a low voice: "Let's go a little farther!"

The leading soldier smiled: "Don't worry! It's safe here, and our general is here." ”

When Wu Chengsi heard that Li Zhen was also there, his heart suddenly relaxed, and he followed the internal guard soldiers into the inn, and in a room on the second floor, Wu Chengsi finally saw Li Zhen, Li Zhen smiled and waved his hand and said, "Mr. Wu, please take a seat!"

Wu Chengsi nodded, sat down, and a soldier served them tea, he took a sip of tea from a hot teacup, and asked with palpitations: "I wonder how my subordinates are now?"

Li Zhen shook his head, "I just got the news that all of your subordinates and two concubines, including the stand-in, have been killed, and none of them are alive. ”

Wu Chengsi hated and feared, he couldn't help but tremble, he didn't expect Wu Sansi to be so ruthless, to put himself to death, Li Zhen looked at him for a moment and said: "Your current strength is far from being able to fight Wu Sansi, you can only ask the Holy Lord for protection, if the Holy Lord is willing to spare you, she will definitely protect your safety." ”

"You promised to convince the Holy One to spare me, this is our deal, and you can't keep your word. ”

"I won't be untrustworthy, I will implore Gao Yanfu to intercede for you, I will cooperate a little more, I believe that the Holy One will spare you in the end, but you have to be mentally prepared"

"What kind of psychological preparation?" Wu Chengji asked in a trembling voice.

"You may be placed under house arrest for a period of time, but of course, we will do our best to help you, including choosing to meet her when she is in the best mood, to help you escape this fate. ”

In fact, Wu Chengsi didn't think it through, he was still the best chess piece to deal with Wu Sansi for Li Zhen, wouldn't it be a pity if he didn't make good use of him, Wu Chengsi didn't figure this out, he nodded with a heavy heart.

That night, Li Zhen took Wu Chengsi back to Luoyang quickly, and at this time, Wu Chonglie was still conducting a city-wide search in Wen County.

It wasn't until after dawn that his subordinates learned from the defenders of the East Gate that someone had left the city from the East Gate last night and their whereabouts were unknown

Gao Yanfu invited Li Zhen into the study, the two sat down separately, Gao Yanfu ordered the maid to serve tea again, and then smiled at Li Zhen: "In the past, you and Wu Chenghei fought to the death, and now you actually want to protect him, which really makes me can't figure it out!"

"At this time and that time, protect him now, I just don't want him to die, I don't have the idea of letting him reinstate, it should be beneficial to us to keep him, what does Fujun think?"

Gao Yanfu knew that what Li Zhen meant by 'we' meant was the Xingtang Society, and of course he also understood why Li Zhen wanted to protect Wu Chenghei, Wu Chenghei would not die, Wu Sansi would have a sworn enemy, and the Wu family would not be able to form an iron plate, which would of course be beneficial to the Li royal family, as Gao Yanfu, who supported the prime minister Li Dan, this ending was also what he wanted to see.

Gao Yanfu smiled slightly, "There are pros and cons to everything, if the advantages of leaving Wu Chenghei behind do outweigh the disadvantages, so be it! I will find an opportunity to talk to the saint in the past two days, so that she can spare Wu Chenghei's life in the face of her father and brother." ”

Li Zhen's heart suddenly fell to the ground, as long as Gao Yanfuken agreed, this matter would become eighty percent, at this time, he remembered that he was almost a male pet, his face was hot, and he asked in a low voice: "Fu Jun, has the saint asked me recently?"

Gao Yanfu's eyes suddenly narrowed into a slit, and he said with a smile: "Yesterday, the Holy Lord asked about you, where did General Li go?"

Li Zhen's heart thumped, could it be that Wu Changzong couldn't satisfy her, and she was going to fight her own idea again?

Gao Yanfu glanced at him meaningfully, shook his head and said, "You! You actually let go of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, how many people can't dream of it, but you actually pushed back, and finally cheapened the Zhang brothers in vain." ”

Li Zhen felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, how could Gao Yanfu become so vulgar, and actually regarded this kind of thing as an opportunity? But as soon as he changed his mind, Gao Yanfu was a eunuch and lived in the palace all the year round, it was not surprising that he thought like this, and a little joy in Li Zhen's heart disappeared immediately, and he asked curiously: "Why the Zhang brothers?"

Gao Yanfu smiled slightly, "The saint's desire is too high, Zhang Changzong is a little unbearable, he recommended his brother Zhang Yizhi as a guard to the saint, this person is fair-skinned and beautiful, and very good at music and lyrics, the two serve the saint together, so the two brothers are favored at the same time, Zhang Changzong is the general of Yunlu, the general of Qianniu Wei, and Zhang Yizhi is the secretary of the Shaoqing, only two or three days later, the two were promoted to the doctor of Yinqing Guanglu, We are all saying that if there is no replacement of the Zhang brothers, Li Zhen should be the general of Qianniuwei and the prince of the country now, but unfortunately, the good opportunity was not seized. ”

Only then did Li Zhen understand that it turned out that Zhang Yizhi had also entered the palace, and he asked again: "If I enter the palace now, there shouldn't be anything that makes me embarrassed!"

"What do you mean, if you are talking about male pets, then you can die, the saint is very intoxicated with the Zhang brothers now, and she has no interest in you anymore. ”

Li Zhen was finally relieved, got up and saluted: "The matter of Wu Chenghei, it will bother the Fujun, I won't disturb the Fujun's rest, I will leave first." ”

Gao Yanfu didn't keep him, he kept sending him out of the yard, looking at Li Zhen's back and walking away quickly, Gao Yanfu couldn't help but shake his head, he really didn't understand why Li Zhen would give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity......

Li Zhen returned to the Internal Guard and External Affairs Bureau, and it was already past noon, so he asked his subordinates to buy some food, and after dealing with lunch haphazardly, he got up and went to the Internal Guard Barracks in Xiyuan.

The West Garden is located in the northwest of Luoyang, is the royal garden of the Tang Dynasty, with a radius of thousands of hectares, covering a vast area, not only there are exquisite pavilions and pavilions, rockery pond fish, all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and the garden forest is an endless forest and grassland to the west, and there are all kinds of animals living there.

In addition, Xiyuan is also the place where the forbidden army is stationed, including tens of thousands of people such as the Yulin Army, the Thousand Cavalry Battalion, the Thousand Niu Guard, the Prison Guard, etc., and the Inner Guard Military Camp is also stationed in the West Garden.

Before the official formation of the internal guard, the internal guard belonged to the establishment of the Qianniuwei, the commander of the internal guard was concurrently served by the general of the Qianniuwei, and the internal guard warriors also lived with the Qianniuwei soldiers, and now the internal guard has its own independent military camp, covering a small area, only more than 20 hectares, more than 300 large tents, close to the Qianqi camp, surrounded by the camp fence.

To go to Xiyuan, you have to pass through the imperial city, when Li Zhen passed by Yingtianmen, but unexpectedly found that Wu Sansi and Zong Chuke were standing in front of the palace gate chatting, Zong Chuke is Wu Zetian's nephew, now he is the head of the household, one of the five phases of the country, holding the wealth of the Tang Dynasty, he is about fifty years old, tall, fair-skinned, wise and intelligent, and deeply valued by Wu Zetian.

At this time, Wu Sansi saw Li Zhen and greeted him with a smile on his face, "Is General Li going to face the saint?"

His smile was full of hypocrisy, and there was no enthusiasm in his eyes, he thought that Li Zhen was going to become the new male pet of the saint, so he was particularly flattering to him, but now that he was preempted by the Zhang brothers, Li Zhen had no hope, and he had no interest in Li Zhen.

Li Zhen took out Wu Sansi's jade pendant and handed it to him, "This jade pendant should be returned to the prince!"

Wu Sansi hurriedly took the jade pendant, he originally regretted giving the jade pendant to Li Zhen, and now that Li Zhen is willing to return it to him, of course he wants to take it back, and asked with a low smile: "I don't know if Wu Chenghei is"

Li Zhen smiled, "I have already caught him, halfway to Wenshui, it seems that he encountered some danger in Wenshui, and fled back in a hurry, just happened to be encountered by me." ”

Wu Sansi hadn't gotten the news of his son Wu Chonglie yet, but Li Zhen told him that Wu Chengji had been captured, and he couldn't help but be stunned, doesn't this mean that his son has failed?

Wu San was speechless for a long time, and at this time, Zong Chuke smiled before leaving: "I heard that Di Xiangguo intends to recruit General Li as his son-in-law, congratulations to General Li." ”

"Thank you Zongxiangguo!"

Zong Chuke smiled again, "Actually, let's just say it! Although everyone wants to be Di Xiangguo's son-in-law, Di Xiangguo has no choice! Except for General Li, who else can he recruit as his son-in-law? King Liang, don't you say?"

Li Zhen heard the thorns in his words, his face suddenly sank, and at this moment, a team of people walked out of Yingtianmen, and it was more than a dozen Qianniu guards surrounded by a young and handsome son, it was Zhang Changzong, who had just been favored.

Wu Sansi and Zong Chuke saw Zhang Changzong, and hurriedly rushed up, Wu Sansi was quick and grabbed the reins of the horse, Zong Chuke had to snatch the horse whip from the entourage, the two nodded and said with a smile: "Where is Dr. Zhang going?"

Zhang Changzong's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, the prime minister and the prince rushed to lead the horse and hand the whip for him, this feeling of stuttering made him very happy, he raised his chin, and said arrogantly: "The palace is stuffy, I want to go out for a walk, do you two also want to accompany me?"

"Being able to accompany Dr. Zhang is simply a blessing that we cultivated in our previous life, willing! We will lead the horse for Dr. Zhang, where do we want to go?"

At this time, Zhang Changzong suddenly saw Li Zhen, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, so he pushed Wu Sansi away, urged the horse to step forward slowly, looked at Li Zhen, and smiled proudly: "General Li, I'm sorry, I robbed you of your favor, don't hate me!"

Li Zhen said lightly: "This is Zhang Gongzi's blessing, it has nothing to do with Li Zhen, I also want to congratulate you." ”

Li Zhen bit the word blessing very hard, Zhang Changzong didn't hear Li Zhen's sarcasm, he thought that Li Zhen was envious of himself, he looked up and laughed proudly, at this time, he suddenly remembered that in the polo game, Li Zhen defeated himself, and his heart suddenly became uncomfortable, he raised his eyebrows and said: "General Li, I want to compete with you again for polo shooting skills, you can't refuse!"

Li Zhen smiled slightly, "If Gongzi Zhang is interested, Li Zhen should accompany him!"

"Okay, then we'll make a decision. ”

Zhang Changzong laughed loudly, as if he had seen Li Zhen's defeat kneeling in front of him, Li Zhen didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, and urged the horse to run west, Wu Sansi and Zong Chuke surrounded him again, Zong Chuke sneered and said: "Do you want me to help and ensure that Li Zhen is defeated in the hands of Dr. Zhang!"

Wu Sansi also hurriedly said: "If there is anything that needs us to serve, Doctor Zhang will give orders!"

Zhang Changzong said coldly: "Can't I even handle this little thing, and I still need your help?"

Wu Sansi and Zong Chuke looked embarrassed, and hurriedly replied: "Of course! Of course! This little thing is just a gesture for Dr. Zhang. ”

Zhang Changzong looked at Li Zhen's distant back, he snorted coldly, and had a new idea in his heart......

Although Wu Sansi was more successful in settling with Zhang Changzong, Li Zhen's words made him feel really bad, his son was incompetent, he couldn't kill Wu Chenghei, and let him escape, and finally fell into the hands of Li Zhen.

He remembered that he was dismissed, although it had been almost half a month, but this was a pain in his heart, seeing that he could grasp the power of the Ministry of Rites, but he was killed by an inexplicable mausoleum turmoil, every time he thought of it, he felt a faint pain in his heart.

"Has the third prince come back?" Wu Sansi asked unhappily when he returned to the mansion.

The housekeeper shook his head, "Lord Qiqi, there is no news of the third prince for the time being." ”

"Let someone send him a letter and let him come back immediately, useless thing!"

The housekeeper hurriedly arranged for someone to send a letter to Wu Chonglie, Wu Sansi returned to his study, and the housekeeper also followed, "Master, there is still something to report!"

"What else?"

"There is a guest in the Guike Hall, it seems that he was introduced by King Jian'an. ”

Wu Sansi heard a little strangely, Wu Youyi introduced a guest, and asked, "What's his name?"

"The people who came refused to say that they must see the prince. ”

The butler lowered his voice again, "He brought a small box of rosewood, so big, according to the rules, the old slave took him to the Guike Hall." ”

The housekeeper gestured, Wu Sansi was suddenly a little tempted, of course he knew that the person who came must have something to ask for his help, generally speaking, the smaller the box, the more valuable the contents are, what good things are in such a small box?

"Tell him to wait, I'll be right there. ”
