Volume 1 The First Entry into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 75 Escape
After Li Tiantian and the four princes said goodbye to Li Xiyun, sure enough, it didn't take long for a man with a black veil on his head and an official uniform behind him to run to the front of the four princes with forty or fifty sabre sergeants hurriedly running to the four princes and kneeling on the ground with tears in his eyes.
The fourth prince hurriedly helped him up and asked, "You are the governor of Huaye City! Let's go, I will go back with you to meet my father." ”
When the man heard the words of the fourth prince, he knelt down again, and said with tears in his eyes: "The minister is terrified!
The fourth prince didn't have time to waste time with these magistrates at this time, and there would be a moment of danger if he stayed here longer, so he said sharply to the governor of Huaye City who was kneeling on the ground: "There is a danger here, and you are still delaying time here, isn't it because you have bad intentions?!"
The governor panicked and didn't dare to say a word more, so he hurriedly ordered the sergeants behind him to protect the four princes, and a group of sergeants surrounded Li Tian and the four princes.
Along the way, the four princes were full of sorrow, he didn't know how to face his second brother in the future, although the two were not in harmony on weekdays, but at least the face was passable, but the fourth prince didn't expect his second brother to send someone to kill him, and one faction is three, if he didn't meet the people of the Flower Shifting Faction, just by himself and Li Tian, I'm afraid that the bones are cold now!
And the governor of Huaye City on the side is also rolling his eyes, among the many officials, only he found the fourth prince, I don't know if the four princes will say a few good words for themselves in front of His Majesty, if His Majesty is happy, maybe he will transfer himself to Tianluo City to be an official, I heard that the official position of the Ministry of Rites is now vacant, I don't know if I have a chance to get this position!
Li Tiantian was thinking about the group of people who assassinated them during the hunt and Man Qiang, plus today's Shang Haodong, he always felt that there were some problems with the three assassinations in a row, but he couldn't say what the specific problem was, it was just an ethereal feeling.
The three of them had their own thoughts, and they didn't encounter any more dangers along the way, and when they arrived at the mansion where the emperor lived, the four princes and Li Tian walked into the main hall and met the saint.
When the emperor saw the fourth prince coming back, he was not as excited as he imagined, but just said lightly: "It's good to come back, what dangers can you encounter in the past few days?"
The fourth prince was just about to admit frankly, when Li Tiantian on the side suddenly spoke: "Emperor Qiqi, I didn't encounter danger, but I got lost and walked all the way to Huaye City. ”
The four princes glanced at Li Tian with a look of surprise, but did not refute it out loud, the emperor nodded, and said indifferently: "It's good that you don't encounter danger, you have a merit in protecting the four princes, I will reward you with a thousand taels of gold and a night pearl, I hope you will do your best to serve the four princes." ”
Li Tiantian smiled and said, "Your Majesty!"
The emperor nodded and waved his hand, "Okay, let's go down and rest if there's nothing to do, and go back to the palace tomorrow." ”
The four princes and Li Tian bowed down and withdrew from the hall, but the four princes didn't ask a question, he knew that Li Tian must have his reason for doing this, there are many people here, if they are listened to by the eyes of the second prince, wouldn't they be even more dangerous.
The two of them entered the house, and Li Tian looked left and right before closing the door, and then closed the door after confirming that there was no one around.
As soon as the door closed, the fourth prince hurriedly asked: "Talent, why did you say this in front of your father just now!
Li Tiantian waved his hand and said freely: "Don't put your hat on my head, I'm cowardly, I can't help but be scared! Besides, it's not the first time I've committed this crime of bullying the king, and I don't bite people if there are too many lice!" Li Tiantian sat on the chair and took a sip of tea and said: "On the way back, I've been thinking, who did the three assassinations, I'm afraid it may not be the second prince alone, he doesn't have that much courage, and if he doesn't succeed once, he dares to have a second and third time? At the moment when I saw the emperor, I suddenly saw a gloating expression on the face of the eldest prince, which inspired me! Do you remember when I was hunting, I told you that the Praetorian Guard is probably not clean!"
The fourth prince nodded and did not speak.
Li Tiantian reached out for another banana and said as he ate it, his voice slurred. "This Praetorian Guard is under the command of the Ministry of War, and it just so happens that the squire of the Ministry of War is the person who was pushed up by the Great Prince, so the first batch of black-clothed people who killed us are probably also arranged by the Great Prince! The martial arts of those people are not high, not to mention the old woman we just met, even the masked man brought by the flower thief is not as good, you said that since someone wants to kill him, why don't you send some people with strong martial arts? Getting a few people with weak martial arts is the same risk as getting people with strong martial arts in, why didn't he do it? I'm afraid that this person doesn't want to kill me at all, and the purpose is to drive us into other cities and prefectures, and then provide the news to the second prince, so that the second prince can send his men to kill you! If you kill you, everyone will be happy, and they can't kill you, and it is the second prince who is exposed, and it has nothing to do with him! It is really a wonderful move to kill people with a knife!"
"This ..... You mean my eldest brother wants to kill me too?!" The fourth prince listened to what Li Tian said as if he were listening to a book from heaven.
Li Tiantian looked at the disbelief expression of the fourth prince and sighed, "I know you can't accept it for a while, but I'm afraid this is the truth, your eldest brother and your second brother really want you to die!"
The eyes of the four princes were empty, and they didn't know what they were thinking, and they didn't speak, they kept eating fruits, this was a step that the four princes had to take, if they couldn't get through, the throne was just a joke.
After a while, the fourth prince shook his head and said to Li Tiantian: "Talent, I'll give you 10,000 taels of gold, can you get me some masters." ”
With a smile in his eyes, Li Tian asked, "Master, how tall is high, if I am like that old woman, I can't get it!"
The fourth prince waved his hand, "Even if you get me a master of that kind I don't dare to use! It's terrifying, if one day he is unhappy and kills me and then leaves, the entire palace can't keep him, and he will die in vain! It's okay to get some Xiyun her master's level, I don't want to kill but I don't want to be killed, I have to have some strength to fight back, it's really not good to have no one around me who can fight!"
Li Tiantian frowned, "Xiyun's master is also a master, and it is not common in the rivers and lakes, but fortunately, although it is not much, it is not much, at least it is a lot more than that old lady, it should not be a big problem!"
The fourth prince couldn't help but quip: "Talent, why do you always think about that old woman, you won't be looking at her old man!"
Li Tiantian looked at the fourth prince with wide eyes, and exclaimed: "You really dare to say anything! That kind of god may be able to practice something, and if her old man gets angry at that time, I won't care about you!"
The fourth prince pursed his lips, no matter how high his martial arts are, he has never heard of what he can practice, I'm afraid even those who ascend to the immortal can't do it!
Seeing that the four princes didn't believe it, Li Tian continued: "Hey, although this time my life is hanging by a thread, it is not without gains, at least let me know Xiyun, I have decided, I will not marry Xiyun in this life!"
The fourth prince stared at Li Tiantian with wide eyes, and said with a sneer: "Talent, you must be joking, okay, okay, stop joking, get down to business!"
Li Tiantian shook his head, his eyes were dilated, as if he was thinking about something, and said lightly: "I'm not joking, she is really special, and I will marry her when I become famous!"
The fourth prince smiled awkwardly and did not continue on this issue, as for the reason, I am afraid only he knows in his own heart.
