Chapter 688: Turmoil at the Palace Gate (1)

Chapter 688: Turmoil at the Palace Gate (1)

The sky is dark, and the lively city of Lin'an gradually returns to tranquility.

The streets are bustling, mostly ordinary people rushing home after a busy day, or young couples who are ready to visit the West Lake at night.

Lin'an is no less prosperous today than Tokyo was back then.

At the back door of King Rong's Mansion, a carriage slowly came out of the night, accompanied by more than a dozen guards with knives on horseback.

Turning away from the corner, the slowly advancing procession suddenly picked up speed, and with a burst of unbridled shouting, the crowd spurred their horses and galloped through the crowded streets.

When the pedestrians saw this, they dodged one after another, daring to be angry but not daring to speak.

The carriage passed through the streets and alleys of Lin'an City, leaving a cloud of dust that did not slow down until the palace was near.

A hundred meters away from the palace gate, there are three deer barricades in turn, like three solid fortresses, encircling the huge palace layer by layer, and there are thousands of armored royal guards with guns, and countless crossbowmen on the city tower are waiting for them, observing the situation near the palace all the time.

The forbidden place of the palace should indeed be heavily guarded, but it will not be so popular. Today, it looks like a great enemy, all because of the chaos in the rivers and lakes, and the thieves sneaked into the palace of the concubine to leave a sharp blade.

This incident caused Long Yan to be furious, and in order to protect the royal family, he ordered the Royal Forest Army to set up a defense outside the palace, and surrounded the palace like an iron bucket, so as to prevent any more assassins from fishing in troubled waters.

"Stop, who dares to approach the forbidden place of the palace?"

Before the carriage could approach the first deer, a sharp shout suddenly came from the Imperial Forest Army. At the same time, dozens of torches in front of and behind the deer were lit at the same time, illuminating the earth as bright as day, and at the same time, the guards around the carriage subconsciously squinted their eyes and waved their hands to block the dazzling firelight.

"Bastard, dare to stop Xiao Wang's car!" a shout came from inside the carriage, "Go! Take Xiao Wang's token to these dog things!"

"Okay!"

Another flattering and playful voice sounded from inside the carriage. Immediately afterwards, a young man with a rabbit head and a brain and a lamb's knee on his shoulders got out of the carriage and swaggered towards the deer.

This person's name is Rong Fu, who is a descendant of King Rong's mansion, and is also one of the entourages of Zhao Yu's side before and after the saddle

The commander of the Imperial Forest Army took the token and looked at it, his face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly waved towards the carriage: "The last general will meet the little prince!"

"Meet the little prince!" to identify Zhao Yu's identity, the surrounding royal forest army bowed to Zhao Yu together.

After that, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army wanted to return the token to Rong Fu, but Rong Fu was arrogant, ignorant of his answers, and looked arrogant.

Seeing this, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army couldn't help but look embarrassed, thought about it for a while, and then trotted all the way to the carriage, carefully presented the token with both hands, and said respectfully: "The last general is in armor, and he can't bow his head and salute." ”

"Move the deer out of the way, let us in!"

"This ......" In the face of Zhao Yu's order, the commander of the Royal Forest Army couldn't help but look embarrassed, "Dare to ask the little prince why he entered the palace overnight?"

"A few days ago, Uncle Huang asked me to learn a copy of Han Yu's "Shi Shuo", and told me to memorize it with him in time after learning it. Zhao Yu said disdainfully, "What's the matter? Could it be that before reciting it to Uncle Huang, Xiao Wang has to recite it to you first?"

"The last general doesn't dare!" the commander of the Imperial Forest Army hurriedly explained, "Since it is summoned by the emperor, the little prince can have the emperor's edict......"

"Presumptuous!" Zhao Yu's tone sank, and he scolded, "What are you? How dare you make things difficult for Xiao Wang? Believe it or not, Xiao Wang will behead you all over the house with an order!"

"Please forgive the little prince, just because the number of thieves has increased recently, the emperor issued a strict decree that all those who enter and leave the palace gate must be checked again and again, in case there are assassins who pass the customs in a fool......"

"Bold!" Rong Fu shouted at the top of his voice, "You dare to suspect that the little prince is an assassin?"

"The last general will never dare!" The commander of the Royal Forest Army was sincerely frightened, and hurriedly apologized, "The last general is just following the emperor's will and doing his duty loyally......"

"That's it!" Zhao Yu said impatiently, "Uncle Huang asked me to enter the palace to recite the "Shi Shuo" is an oracle, and there is no edict. If you suspect that I am falsely preaching a holy decree, you may wish to go in and ask. ”

"The last general doesn't dare!" the commander of the Imperial Forest Army thought for a moment, then took two steps back, and bowed to the carriage again, "In that case, please get off the car and walk into the palace alone, while the other guards stay here and wait." ”

"You ......"

Finally, Zhao Yu, who couldn't bear it, got out of the carriage, and before Rongfu stepped forward to help, he jumped out of the car and rushed to the commander of the Royal Forest Army, without a trace of hesitation, he raised his hand to fight.

"Smack!"

"This slap is a lesson that you don't know the rules!"

"Smack!"

"This slap is a lesson for you to be inferior!"

"Little Prince......"

Before Zhao Yu stretched out his hand to fight again, a slightly restrained voice suddenly came from a distance, which made Zhao Yu stunned.

"Who called me?"

"It's me. ”

With an answer, a slender figure slowly walked out of the darkness. Seeing this, the guards changed their faces one after another, and at the same time drew their swords and protected Zhao Yu with lightning speed to prevent accidents.

"Who?"

Under Rong Fu's questioning, the expressionless Qin Wei gradually appeared in front of everyone.

As soon as he saw Qin Wei, Zhao Yu, who was full of nervousness, couldn't help but be stunned, and then his face sank, he stretched out his hand to push away the guards in front of him, and said in an unkind tone: "What are you doing here?" Xiao Wang was angry when he saw you, if it weren't for Tianji Hou's protection everywhere, I would have to kill you for Sister Xin!"

"I am guilty of my crimes, and I hope that the little prince will be angry!" Qin Wei knew that Zhao Yu was dissatisfied with him, but he still stepped forward and said humbly, "I am really forced to come down." It's about Prince Rong and Princess Xinde, and I don't dare to slack off......"

"What do you mean?" Zhao Yu frowned, his eyes full of suspicion.

"Little Prince, can you take a step to speak?" Qin Wei looked around cautiously, and the meaning was self-evident.

"This ......"

Zhao Yu hesitated slightly, but seeing Qin Wei's solemn words, he simply turned his heart on the side and followed him to a secluded place.

"If you have something to say, let it go!"

"Obey!" Qin Wei was not annoyed, and replied unhurriedly, "I dare to ask the little prince, you and Liu Xunyi met in the West Lake Langyuan this afternoon...... What is the matter? When we met in the afternoon, the little prince entered the palace in a hurry, is there any connection between the two? Also, is this matter related to Princess Xinde......

"Wait!" Zhao Yu looked displeased and asked rhetorically, "What does this have to do with you?"

"I boldly speculate that if the little prince enters the palace overnight, it will be to pass some news to Princess Xinde for Liu Xunyi......" As for this, Qin Wei's eyes when he looked at Zhao Yu quietly changed, and his tone became more and more solemn, "Dare to ask the little prince to give advice, not only to help Liu Xunyi, but also to help Princess Xinde and Prince Rong." ”

"I really don't understand, Liu Xunyi is obviously your friend, why do you stumble again and again?"

"It is precisely because Liu Xunyi is a friend of Xia that he doesn't want him to fall into a place of no return because of impulse. Although Zhao Yu was vague, Qin Wei was already sure from his expression that his overnight entry into the palace must be related to Liu Xunyi and Zhao Xin, so he looked full of expression and said righteously, "What's more, he is not only a friend of the lower ranks, but also a friend of the little prince." Could it be that the little prince is willing to watch him get entangled with Princess Xinde, thus destroying the harmony and putting the Great Song in danger?"

"This ......"

"Little prince, if you enter the palace now to deliver a message for Liu Xunyi, no one can predict what will happen later. If you do this, you will not only kill Liu Xunyi, but also affect Lord Rong......"

"Qin Wei, you are so daring, you dare to command me to do things?" Qin Wei's chatter made Zhao Yu annoyed and angry, "Xiao Wang is not a fool, he knows how to be measured, and he doesn't need you to point fingers!"

"Don't dare!" Qin Wei was shocked and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "I'm just ......"

"That's enough!" Zhao Yu said angrily, "You don't play tricks in front of me, do you think Xiao Wang can't see through your mind?" might as well tell you the truth, Liu Xunyi did ask Xiao Wang to help him bring a letter to Sister Xin, but I have already read this letter, there is no threat to the relatives, and there is no disadvantage to Sister Xin and her father. ”

"Letter, what letter?" Qin Wei was shocked in his heart, and said hurriedly, "Can you let me take a look?"

"You ......" Just as he was about to open his mouth to scold, Zhao Yu suddenly had a plan, so he raised his eyebrows, and a sly smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "You really want to see it?"

"Of course! It's about ...... affinity."

"Okay! You can see it if you want, but you have to promise me one thing. ”

Qin Wei was stunned for a moment, and said cautiously: "What's the matter?"

"Don't let you die, I don't let you be a traitor, I promise you can do it easily. Zhao Yu deliberately betrayed Guanzi, and his words were full of provocation, "How?

"If that's the case, don't say one thing, even if it's ten, hundred......"

"Don't talk nonsense! Before the words fell, Zhao Yu had already walked towards the carriage.

Although Qin Wei was full of confusion, in order to prevent the revival of Liu Xunyi and Zhao Xin's old relationship, he couldn't take care of it much.

"Tianji Pavilion is your territory, Zhao Yuan protects you everywhere, and Xiao Wang is inconvenient to trouble you. When he got closer, Zhao Yu grabbed Qin Wei's collar, pushed him between the guards, and jokingly said, "But you bullied Sister Xin's evil breath, but Xiao Wang couldn't swallow it anyway." ”

Looking at the guards who were eyeing him around, Qin Wei felt ominous, and said worriedly: "Little prince...... What do you want me to do?"

"You don't have to do anything. Zhao Yu sneered, "Just stand here motionless and let my unsuccessful subordinates 'serve' you with a stick of incense, how about it?"

"Little prince, I ......"

"Don't worry, I'll order them to use only their fists and feet, not their swords, so they won't hurt you. ”

After saying that, regardless of whether Qin Wei agreed or not, Zhao Yu suddenly turned around and instructed the group of royal forest soldiers: "Listen, if he dares to resist...... You will rush up and treat them as assassins with bad intentions, and dispose of them at will!"

"Yes!"

After ordering everything properly, Zhao Yu, who was full of ambition, jumped into the carriage and put on a leisurely appearance to watch the excitement.

On the other hand, Qin Wei, who was under siege, faced with the fierce guards who were constantly approaching from all directions, gearing up and smiling fiercely, his expression became more and more solemn, and his breathing became more and more urgent.

"Rongfu, burn incense!"
