In the palace, Hong Xuefu and Yang Jingkang were discussing the prince's accession to the throne. Yang Jingkang said: "The country can't be without a king for a day, I suggest that the prince should ascend the throne first and then mourn." Hong Xuefu said: "I'm afraid that the ascension to the throne will not be so smooth." Yang Jingkang said: "The old emperor died, and the crown prince's ascension to the throne is a matter of course, who else dares to make trouble." Hong Xuefu said: "Li Guifei has long wanted the emperor to abolish the crown prince, the emperor has never agreed, and there is no guarantee that Li Guifei will not take advantage of the emperor's death to do a big job, and now Jinyi Wei is all in the hands of Zhang Lingyu, even Liu Qi can't intervene, Zhang Lingyu is Li Guifei's sworn friend, I heard that no one can beat in martial arts, if it is difficult to make it, the situation is really unimaginable, it is really worrying." ”

The prince said: "Teacher Hong, Jinyiwei, don't worry, Zhang Lingyu is my person." Hong Xuefu said happily: "The prince is really the talent of the emperor, and he has long been planning everything under control, and the old minister is blindly worried." The prince said: "The teacher's worries are right, if the teacher can see that Zhang Lingyu is my prince's person, then the matter will be really difficult to handle." Hong Xuefu said: "The old minister also agrees with Lord Yang's proposal, ascend the throne first, then mourn, stabilize the court first, and then give the emperor a good funeral." The prince said: "Okay, just do what the two adults want, teacher, you go back and write an edict to the throne for tomorrow." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard someone say: "You don't need to write it, the edict has already been written." The three of them turned their heads and saw Zhang Lingyu standing in front of them, Hong and Yang were startled. The prince said unhurriedly: "Second brother, what do you mean by this." Hong Xuefu was even more surprised, and said without waiting for Lingyu to reply: "Prince, you call him second brother." What's going on. I didn't hear you had a brother who was outcast. The prince said, "Teacher, you misunderstood. He is my sworn brother. Hong Xuefu said: "I see, the prince has such a helper, why worry about the instability of the world." ”

Lingyu said: "The emperor has long been guarding against the fact that Concubine Li's father and daughter will embarrass the prince, so he personally wrote an edict for me to keep and use it when he dies." Hong Xuefu said: "That's great, no matter what tricks Concubine Li plays, it's useless." Lingyu said: "Tomorrow you only take care of the affairs of the court, and I will ensure that the crown prince ascends the throne smoothly." Hong Xuefu and Yang Jingkang were relieved when they heard Lingyu say this, and then left and went back.

The prince said: "Second brother." What you just said is true or false, why haven't I heard you say it, you won't be comforting the two adults!" Lingyu said: "How dare you joke about this, it's been many days, the emperor won't let me tell you, how dare I disobey the holy decree?" The prince said: "I still suspect that my father has long forgotten me as the prince." Lingyu said: "The emperor has his own hardships. The prince said: "Everything has passed, I don't blame him, have you found out? ”

Lingyu said: "I found it out, the emperor has been taking the pill of Lingfeng Dao long refining, and the Lingfeng Dao long pill came back without refining the pill and went out of the palace again." He has not returned yet, and the emperor's pill has been eaten. When the disease occurred, there was no pill to save him, and he returned to the immortal. The prince secretly said: "It's good to return to immortals, return to immortals early and ascend to heaven early." ”

The prince said: "Lingfeng Dao Chief is the culprit who killed my father, you have to send someone to secretly hunt him down." Lingyu said: "After you ascend the throne tomorrow, you will send someone to hunt him down." ”

Lingyu said: "Big brother, tonight is an extraordinary time, you have to be extra careful, I have sent Ximen Hu outside, as well as Chen Yuqi Qianhu and the three captains, it should be no problem." The prince said, "Okay, I'll be careful, you go and do something!" Lingyu said goodbye and shook her body and disappeared. The prince secretly said: "This person is really a terrible person, fortunately, he has an enmity with Li Ge Lao and is used by me, if he really does things for Li Ge Lao, the consequences are really unimaginable." ”

Lingyu returned to the Jinyiwei camp and sent additional people to defend the imperial city and the Forbidden City, after arranging, he went to the Country Garden to take Xiang'er and Hao Yan back to the Jinyiwei camp, let her change into the clothes of the Jinyiwei, and then followed Lingyu into the imperial city from the Chengtian Gate. Lingyu and Hao Yan, Xiang'er entered the Forbidden City from the Xihua Gate again, and jumped on the roof when there was no one, Hao Yan and Xiang'er due to the improvement of their skills, light skills are also advancing by leaps and bounds, although they are not as good as Lingyu, they can also be regarded as masters among masters, and she followed Lingyu to the residence of Princess Jade soon.

The princess had just come back from crying at the emperor's, and she was sitting there with a sad face, and when she saw Lingyu coming, she ran over and threw herself into Lingyu's arms and cried: "Brother Yu, why did my father leave suddenly, what should I do." Lingyu hugged her and patted her back and comforted: "Sister Yu, don't be afraid, I and your prince brother are here." The princess said: "Brother Yu, you must help the prince's brother!"

Lingyu pushed away the princess and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hand, and said, "Don't worry! I will, now that the palace is in chaos, it is very unsafe, I asked the two of them to protect you, and you want to change them into the clothes of palace maids." Cailian said: "The size of the slave is about the same as the two girls, and my clothes must fit." The princess said, "Then why don't you go and get it quickly." Cailian hurriedly ran over and brought two sets of clothes, Hao Yan and Xiang'er put them on just right, and Cailian and Shui Yue were busy combing her hair twice.

Lingyu said: "Sister Yan, Xiang'er, you just listen to the princess's arrangement, I'll go first." Then he kissed the princess on the forehead and walked out, and he walked out into the courtyard and shook himself up to the roof.

Besides, the prince couldn't sleep in the bedroom, whether he was sad for his father, or whether he was going to ascend the throne as the emperor tomorrow, he couldn't tell himself, he was wandering and sitting and lying down from time to time, when he suddenly heard the sound of fighting outside, he hurriedly pulled out his sword from the wall in case of accidents.

Sure enough, there were people fighting outside, and I saw ten brocade guards fighting around three brocade guards, what the hell is going on, it turns out that this is another plan of Li Ge Lao.

When Li Ge Lao left the imperial city, he called Zhu Dong, a close guard, to find He Guodong, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and asked him to go to the palace to discuss matters. Li Ge Lao returned to the living room of the house and asked Liu Wu to call Li Hao, the head of Wudang Dao, Wang Xiaoming, the master of King Kong, Ji Shutong, and Zhao Wu, the master of Taishan. After a while, these people came to the living room, and Li Ge said: "As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, it's time for you to show your skills." ”

Wang Xiaoming said: "In the next place, the elder of the pavilion will send him, even if he goes to the soup and fire, he will not hesitate." Li Hao, Ji Shutong, and Zhao Wu also said peacefully: "Go to the soup and fight the fire again." Just as Zhu Dong and Jinyiwei commanded He Guodong to walk into the living room, He Guodong said: "Lord Ge, what's the important thing to call a lowly post so late." Li Ge Lao said: "Now that the concubine Niangniang has received the emperor's edict, she wants to let the little prince succeed to the throne, but I am afraid that the prince will get in the way, so in order for the little prince to ascend the throne smoothly, I decided to send you to assassinate the prince tonight." ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Li Ge Lao's face sank when he saw this: "Why, they are all scared, didn't they say that they want to go to the soup for the old man of this pavilion? If the old man of this pavilion is not sure, can he tell you to do it? This old man is not afraid of such a net worth, what are you afraid of." He Guodong said: "Yes, the Pavilion Boss is not afraid, what are we little people afraid of, life is originally a gamble, if we succeed, we will enjoy endless glory and wealth, death is a rotten life, since ancient times, who has not died, Pavilion Boss, what do you say!"

Seeing this, those people also plucked up their courage, and they all said that they swore to obey the dispatch of the elder of the pavilion. Li Ge Lao said: "Okay, as long as everyone works together, we will definitely succeed." He Guodong said: "Lord Ge, isn't the commander of Master Zhang also a person of the Ge Lao? If you have his cooperation, you will definitely succeed." Li Ge Lao said: "Although Zhang Lingyu is my person on the surface, but the time is too short to understand him thoroughly, it is better not to let him know about such a confidential matter, but when necessary, you can act under his banner."
